"""Self-contained web-stack feature tests: app + fake saddle daemon.

Unlike integration_test.py (which needs a real saddle daemon and a mock
LLM), this suite spawns everything it needs:

- the clanker-saddle app binary (path from argv[1], or builddir default)
  in a scratch directory with its own web-config.json (statum keys copied
  from the repo, plus `saddle_callback_base_url`) and SQLite database
- in-process fake saddle daemons speaking the wire contract: POST
  /register (plan 10: receives {saddle_token, web_base_url}, answers
  {ok, ssh_public_key, version}), POST /wake (records the wake; the
  daemon then asks POST /api/saddle/next-task), POST /task-update
  (cancel/comment/subtask-status), GET /status (scripted reflection —
  exceptional use only), and the phase-2 push channels home:
  POST /api/saddle/chunks (raw PTY batches) and POST /api/saddle/results
  (round entries + state transitions). The retired /start, /output and
  /log routes 404 like a post-phase-2 daemon.

It then drives the app the way statum.js does (entrypoint loads + action
POSTs) and asserts the Workstream B features against the wire contract:

3. plan-review blocks hide their duplicate body preview
5. rules CRUD/attach + the effective `rules` array in assignments
6. project notes, POST /api/saddle/note, `project_notes` + `callback`
   in assignments
   plus the raw-log side: pushed chunks -> session_raw_log + terminal
   raw view

Plan 10 phase 1 (work acquisition flip):

- per-saddle tokens: registration mints + /register-delivers them,
  legacy tokens migrate onto the row at startup, removal revokes
- token auth on every /api/saddle/* endpoint
- next-task allocation: concurrent asks race exactly one winner,
  affinity pinning for parked tasks, resume_notice on suspended resumes
- dispatcher: wake -> ask -> allocate roundtrip, the lost-wake guard
  (no ask after a wake -> offline, re-wake the next capable), and the
  pre-flip /answer + /start resume paths kept as the rollback route

Plan 10 phase 2 (telemetry flip):

- pushed chunks: idempotent on (session_id, seq), ordered, landing in
  session_raw_log so the SSE terminal keeps working
- pushed results: entries store like the /output path did (redelivery
  idempotent on the daemon entry ids), blocked raises the block row +
  parks + bumps the pulse (sealed refresh shows it), done/failed
  complete/fail the task, suspended parks for the affinity resume
- staleness: a silent runner gets ONE exceptional GET /status probe —
  alive keeps it running, dead requeues the task with a bot comment and
  marks the saddle offline; a recovered daemon's ask flips offline rows
  back to idle
- the deleted layers are gone: /output, /log and /start 404 on the
  daemon side, and nothing on the web side calls them

Plan 10 phase 3 (capability awareness + UI):

- assignment capability context: {saddle_tags, fleet_tags} on every
  payload, GET /api/saddle/capabilities (per-saddle token) feeding
  the daemon's `saddle capabilities` CLI
- subtask callback capabilities: explicit-only attachment validated
  against the operator tag set, unknown tags rejected with the valid
  list in the error
- task page: status block pinned to the top, blocking sections
  newest-first (sealed GET state)
- home dashboard: pinned OPEN blocks as newest-first link-through
  cards (no inline answer forms) above the cross-task activity
  timeline (last ~50 events newest-first)
- lost-wake-guard regression: a saddle that asks SLOWLY after its
  wake (busy winding down) still claims the task — the wake is never
  silently dropped, no re-wake storm fires, and the never-asks guard
  path (offline + re-wake of the next capable) stays green

Prints PASS/FAIL lines Statum-style; exits non-zero on any failure.
