design+impl(aggregator): triage actions on /attention - acknowledge, snooze, escalate, answer - orchestrator-mediated #1152
Description
Finding
Drew's requirement: "I need to be able to remediate or respond to issues that need my attention, doing basic triage work" - from the dashboard. Today the ONLY write the dashboard supports is comments (POST /api/comments). On /attention Drew can read tiers and open a discuss page, but cannot: acknowledge an item, snooze it, move it between tiers, or answer a waiting session's question in place. Every response means leaving the dashboard.
Proposal
Dashboard actions modeled on the comments write pattern (dashboard-local store + orchestrator consumption, so the orchestrator remains the single writer of Project/GitHub state): per tier item - Acknowledge (records Drew saw it; item drops from NEEDS DREW until new signal), Snooze (until a chosen horizon), Escalate/De-escalate (tier override with reason), Answer (for stopped-for-question sessions: free-text answer the orchestrator delivers like it does for its own classifications). Each action is an attributed record (author drew, timestamp, item ref) the orchestrator polls and applies/reports.
Acceptance
- Each action round-trips: taken on the dashboard -> consumed by an orchestration pass -> visible state change on /attention, with the action log inspectable via API.
- Actions on absent-tier-source items are disabled with the reason shown (depends on the attention honesty issue, not blocked by it).

Agent note (pickup, 2026-10-27): building this now on branch
pm/triage-write-path— the actions store (src/actions.ts, mirroringsrc/comments.ts), the three endpoints, and the card controls land together with #1152/#1154/#1156 as one slice of epic #1184, plus the orchestration-pass (+ keeper, for Jules session actions) consumer steps. Verb names align with the needs-user actions addendum from the start (answer/delegate/dismiss included in the enum; proposal verbs reserved for #1290–#1293).pm-stack aggregator: dashboard actions store + triage write path UI (#…

Agent note (completion, 2026-10-27): SHIPPED and live-verified. PR #1346 (merge 2cc9324) + treefmt follow-up PR #1350 (f9c9ffd); deployed to the laptop aggregator (install.sh + explicit service restart; .opencode configs preserved byte-for-byte).
What landed: src/actions.ts store (comments-pattern: PM_AGG_ACTIONS_FILE, atomic writes, clientToken dedupe, consume-once results, supersede-undo, records never deleted), POST /api/actions + GET /api/actions.json + POST /api/actions/result, and the /attention controls — acknowledge / snooze (presets + custom) / escalate / de-escalate on tier cards, pending/applied/rejected badges from the store, a visible 'Snoozed by you' strip with unsnooze, and section-item controls disabled with the reason whenever the tier source is not live (session-derived stay enabled). Verb set aligned with the needs-user addendum (answer carries text/optionId/answers[]; delegate/dismiss in the enum; dismiss requires a reason at the boundary; proposal verbs reserved for #1290-#1293).
Consumer: the orchestration-pass job definition gained a DASHBOARD ACTIONS step (verified byte-identical to pre-edit + the single insertion). Live round-trip: test acknowledge da-mvqdfu1m-11lms9 on gh:#812 (a current NEEDS DREW item) posted via the endpoint, sat state=new, then a triggered pass (run orch-2026-10-27T07:36:37Z) applied it with the note 'recorded against #812 in orchestrator-state.json; its NEEDS DREW tier entry notes the ack' — and /attention now renders the ✓ acknowledged badge on the card. Closing.
