This ensures dev-agent can't merge its own PRs — it must wait for review-agent (running as the bot account) to approve.
> **Common pitfall:** Approvals alone are not enough. You must also:
> 1. Add `review_bot` as a **write** collaborator on the repo (Settings → Collaborators)
> 2. Set both `approvals_whitelist_username` **and** `merge_whitelist_usernames` to include `review_bot` in the branch protection rule
>
> Without write access, the bot's approval is counted but the merge API returns HTTP 405.

The 3-minute offsets prevent agents from competing for resources.
Both `review-poll.sh` and `dev-poll.sh` take a project TOML file as their first argument.
### Multiple projects
Stagger each project's dev-poll and review-poll by 3 minutes so they don't overlap:
```cron
FACTORY_ROOT=/home/you/disinto

The 3-minute offsets prevent agents from competing for resources. Each project gets its own lock file (`/tmp/dev-agent-{name}.lock`) derived from the `name` field in its TOML, so concurrent runs across projects are safe.

3. The supervisor and gardener will post status updates and escalation threads to the configured room. Reply in-thread to answer escalations.
### Per-project Matrix setup
Each project can post to its own Matrix room. For each project:
1. **Create a Matrix room** and note its room ID (e.g. `!abc123:matrix.example.org`)
2. **Create a bot user** (or reuse one) and join it to the room
3. **Add the token** to `.env` using a project-prefixed name:
```bash
PROJECTNAME_MATRIX_TOKEN=syt_xxxxx
```
4. **Configure the TOML** with a `[matrix]` section:
```toml
[matrix]
room_id = "!abc123:matrix.example.org"
bot_user = "@projectname-bot:matrix.example.org"
token_env = "PROJECTNAME_MATRIX_TOKEN"
```
The `token_env` field points to the environment variable name, not the token value itself, so you can have multiple bots with separate credentials in a single `.env`.

| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
