feat: implement CLI with all commands (init, status, spawn, session, send, review-check, dashboard, open) (#6)
* feat: implement CLI with all commands (init, status, spawn, session, send, review-check, dashboard, open)

Implement the full `ao` CLI using Commander.js with 9 commands:

- ao init: Interactive setup wizard that creates agent-orchestrator.yaml
- ao status: Colored terminal table of all sessions (branch, activity, PR, CI)
- ao spawn <project> [issue]: Spawn single agent session (worktree + tmux + agent)
- ao batch-spawn <project> <issues...>: Batch spawn with duplicate detection
- ao session ls|kill|cleanup: Session management subcommands
- ao send <session> <message>: Smart message delivery with busy detection/retry
- ao review-check [project]: Scan PRs for review comments, trigger agent fixes
- ao dashboard: Start the Next.js web dashboard
- ao open [target]: Open session(s) in terminal tabs

Shared libraries:
- lib/shell.ts: Shell command helpers (tmux, git, gh wrappers)
- lib/metadata.ts: Flat metadata file read/write (backwards-compatible format)
- lib/format.ts: Terminal formatting (colors, tables, banners)

All commands code against core interfaces and flat metadata files,
matching the behavior of the reference bash scripts in scripts/.

* fix: address remaining PR review comments

- Use `=== null` instead of falsy check for git worktree result (spawn.ts)
- Wrap spinner in try/catch so it stops on error (spawn.ts)
- Use exact match instead of substring for issue duplicate detection (metadata.ts)
- Check git worktree remove result before printing success (session.ts)

* fix: address bugbot review — interrupt before send, error resilience, worktree validation

- review-check: send C-c + C-u to interrupt busy agent and clear input before
  delivering fix prompt, matching the reference bash script behavior
- review-check: wrap per-session send in try/catch so one failure doesn't abort
  remaining sessions
- spawn: check worktree creation return value and throw on failure instead of
  continuing with non-existent worktree path
- Update test mock for detached worktree to return success

* fix: address 4 bugbot findings — status type, TTY match, retry safety, comment counting

- spawn: write status "spawning" (not "starting") to match SessionStatus type
- status: use column-based exact TTY match to prevent pts/1 matching pts/10
- send: use null-safe tmux() helper in retry loop instead of throwing exec()
- review-check: use GraphQL reviewThreads to count only unresolved comments,
  preventing fix prompts on PRs with all threads resolved

* fix: GraphQL variable passing and env var name sanitization

- review-check: use -F flags for GraphQL variables instead of string
  interpolation to prevent injection via repo config values
- spawn: sanitize env var name by replacing non-alphanumeric chars with
  underscores (my-app → MY_APP_SESSION, not MY-APP_SESSION)

* fix: add -l flag to tmux send-keys and remove dead activityIndicator code

- Add literal (-l) flag to send-keys so user text isn't interpreted as
  tmux key names (e.g. "Enter", "Escape")
- Remove unused activityIndicator function from format.ts and its tests

* refactor: move agent-specific logic from CLI into agent plugins

detectActivity, introspect, and getLaunchCommand now live in the agent
plugins (claude-code, codex, aider) instead of being hardcoded in the
CLI commands. The Agent interface's detectActivity takes a plain string
of terminal output instead of a Session object, making plugins trivially
unit-testable.

* fix: use -f for string GraphQL vars and -l flag for tmux send-keys

Addresses two bugbot findings in review-check.ts:
1. Use -f (string) instead of -F (typed) for owner/name GraphQL
   variables to prevent numeric coercion of repo names.
2. Use -l (literal) flag with send-keys and separate Enter call,
   matching the established tmux safety pattern in send.ts.

* fix: guard empty terminal output in lifecycle-manager and deduplicate send.ts

- lifecycle-manager: skip detectActivity when terminal output is empty
  to prevent false "killed" state when runtime probe returns no data
- send.ts: collapse identical isBusy/isProcessing into single isActive
- tests: use non-empty mock terminal output so detectActivity is exercised

* fix: validate message before side effects, remove dead updateMetadataField

- send.ts: move message validation before idle-wait loop and C-u clear
  so running `ao send session` with no message exits immediately without
  touching the tmux session
- metadata.ts: remove exported updateMetadataField (unused in production)
- metadata.test.ts: remove corresponding tests

* fix: add -l flag and separate Enter for spawn prompt send-keys

Use literal flag (-l) when sending the initial prompt via tmux
send-keys in spawn.ts, and send Enter as a separate call. This
matches the pattern used in send.ts and review-check.ts and prevents
tmux from interpreting special characters in the issue ID.

* fix: strict session prefix matching and validate project before use

- session-utils: add matchesPrefix() using regex ^prefix-\d+$ to prevent
  cross-project misattribution with overlapping prefixes (e.g. "app" vs
  "app-v2")
- Replace all startsWith(`${prefix}-`) calls across status.ts,
  review-check.ts, session.ts, and open.ts with matchesPrefix()
- status.ts, review-check.ts: move project validation before the
  projects map construction so invalid project IDs exit before any
  access to undefined config

* fix: deduplicate escapeRegex and add -l flag to spawn send-keys

- Export escapeRegex from session-utils.ts, remove duplicate from spawn.ts
- Add -l (literal) flag to tmux send-keys for postCreate hooks and
  launch command, with Enter sent separately
- Prevents tmux from interpreting key names in user config or agent
  commands

* fix: update detectActivity to sync string signature across all plugins

After rebase on main, all agent plugins and their tests still had the
old async detectActivity(session: Session) signature. Updated to the
new sync detectActivity(terminalOutput: string): ActivityState across:
- agent-claude-code, agent-codex, agent-aider, agent-opencode plugins
- All plugin unit tests (test terminal output patterns, not process state)
- All integration tests (capture tmux pane output before calling)
- status.ts: use getSessionInfo() instead of nonexistent introspect()

* fix: integration tests expect idle (not exited) from detectActivity after process exit

detectActivity is a pure terminal-text classifier that returns "idle" for
empty/shell-prompt output. Process exit detection is handled by isProcessRunning.

* fix: check last-line prompt before historical activity patterns in detectActivity

Reorder classifyTerminalOutput to check the last line for a prompt
character before scanning the full buffer for activity indicators like
"Reading" or "Thinking". This prevents historical output in the capture
buffer from causing false "active" results when the agent is idle.

* fix: update pnpm-lock.yaml for web dashboard dependencies

* fix: preserve state on getOutput failure, check permission prompts before activity indicators

- lifecycle-manager: remove .catch(() => "") from getOutput so failures
  reach the outer catch block that preserves stuck/needs_input states
- classifyTerminalOutput: check waiting_input prompts against bottom of
  buffer before full-buffer active indicators, preventing historical
  "Thinking"/"Reading" text from overriding current permission prompts

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: detect agent exit via isProcessRunning, remove redundant active checks

- lifecycle-manager: replace dead "exited"/"blocked" branches with
  isProcessRunning check when detectActivity returns "idle" — correctly
  detects agent process exit inside a still-alive tmux session
- classifyTerminalOutput: remove redundant explicit active-indicator
  checks that returned the same "active" as the unconditional default

* fix: wrap killSession in try-catch so cleanup loop continues on failure

One session's kill failure (e.g. archiveMetadata fs error) no longer
aborts the entire cleanup loop, matching the pattern used by batch-spawn
and review-check.

* test: add comprehensive unit and integration tests for CLI

Unit tests (6 new files, 61 tests):
- session-utils: escapeRegex, matchesPrefix, findProjectForSession
- plugins: getAgent, getAgentByName lookup and error cases
- shell: exec, execSilent, tmux, git, gh, getTmuxSessions, getTmuxActivity
- review-check: GraphQL review checking, dry-run, fix prompt delivery
- open: target resolution (all/project/session), fallback, --new-window
- init: rejects existing config file

Integration tests (2 new files, 8 tests):
- spawn-send-kill: real tmux session create, send-keys, kill, graceful re-kill
- session-ls: multi-session listing, per-session capture, activity timestamps

CLI vitest config updated with explicit thread pool parallelization.
Total CLI tests: 68 → 129. Total integration tests: 20 → 28.

* fix: address 5 bugbot findings — symlink type, timeout cleanup, file validation, repo format

- spawn.ts: pass `type` param to symlinkSync based on lstat (dir vs file)
- spawn.ts: document TOCTOU gap in getNextSessionNumber (tmux rejects dupes)
- dashboard.ts: store browser timeout and clear it on child exit
- send.ts: wrap file read in try-catch with user-friendly error
- review-check.ts: validate owner/name split before GraphQL query
