openhands 23949083c0 fix: Remove Matrix integration — notifications move to forge + OpenClaw (#732)
Remove all Matrix/Dendrite infrastructure:
- Delete lib/matrix_listener.sh (long-poll daemon), lib/matrix_listener.service
  (systemd unit), lib/hooks/on-stop-matrix.sh (response streaming hook)
- Remove matrix_send() and matrix_send_ctx() from lib/env.sh
- Remove MATRIX_HOMESERVER auto-detection, MATRIX_THREAD_MAP from lib/env.sh
- Remove [matrix] section parsing from lib/load-project.sh
- Remove Matrix hook installation from lib/agent-session.sh
- Remove notify/notify_ctx helpers and Matrix thread tracking from
  dev/dev-agent.sh and action/action-agent.sh
- Remove all matrix_send calls from dev-poll.sh, phase-handler.sh,
  action-poll.sh, vault-poll.sh, vault-fire.sh, vault-reject.sh,
  review-poll.sh, review-pr.sh, supervisor-poll.sh, formula-session.sh
- Remove Matrix listener startup from docker/agents/entrypoint.sh
- Remove append_dendrite_compose() and setup_matrix() from bin/disinto
- Remove --matrix flag from disinto init
- Clean Matrix references from .env.example, projects/*.toml.example,
  formulas/*.toml, AGENTS.md, BOOTSTRAP.md, README.md, RESOURCES.md,
  PHASE-PROTOCOL.md, and all agent AGENTS.md/PROMPT.md files

Status visibility now via Codeberg PR/issue activity. Human interaction
via vault items through forge. Proactive alerts via OpenClaw heartbeats.

Gardener Agent

Role: Backlog grooming — detect duplicate issues, missing acceptance criteria, oversized issues, stale issues, and circular dependencies. Enforces the quality gate: strips the backlog label from issues that lack acceptance criteria checkboxes (- [ ]) or an ## Affected files section. Invokes Claude to fix what it can; files vault items for what it cannot.

Trigger: gardener-run.sh runs 4x/day via cron. Sources lib/guard.sh and calls check_active gardener first — skips if $FACTORY_ROOT/state/.gardener-active is absent. Then creates a tmux session with claude --model sonnet, injects formulas/run-gardener.toml as context, monitors the phase file, and cleans up on completion or timeout (2h max session). No action issues — the gardener runs directly from cron like the planner, predictor, and supervisor.

Key files:

  • gardener/gardener-run.sh — Cron wrapper + orchestrator: lock, memory guard, sources disinto project config, creates tmux session, injects formula prompt, monitors phase file via custom _gardener_on_phase_change callback (passed to run_formula_and_monitor). Stays alive through CI/review/merge cycle after PHASE:awaiting_ci — injects CI results and review feedback, re-signals PHASE:awaiting_ci after fixes, signals PHASE:awaiting_review on CI pass. Executes pending-actions manifest after PR merge.
  • formulas/run-gardener.toml — Execution spec: preflight, grooming, dust-bundling, blocked-review, agents-update, commit-and-pr
  • gardener/pending-actions.json — Manifest of deferred repo actions (label changes, closures, comments, issue creation). Written during grooming steps, committed to the PR, reviewed alongside AGENTS.md changes, executed by gardener-run.sh after merge.

Environment variables consumed:

  • FORGE_TOKEN, FORGE_REPO, FORGE_API, PROJECT_NAME, PROJECT_REPO_ROOT
  • PRIMARY_BRANCH, CLAUDE_MODEL (set to sonnet by gardener-run.sh)

Lifecycle: gardener-run.sh (cron 0,6,12,18) → check_active gardener → lock + memory guard → load formula + context → create tmux session → Claude grooms backlog (writes proposed actions to manifest), bundles dust, reviews blocked issues, updates AGENTS.md, commits manifest + docs to PR → PHASE:awaiting_ci (stays alive) → CI pass → PHASE:awaiting_review → review feedback → address + re-signal → merge → gardener-run.sh executes manifest actions via API → PHASE:done. When blocked on external resources or human decisions, files a vault item instead of escalating.
