Canonical Wave Dispatch & Chrome Navigation

The orchestration dispatcher now reads all waveN queues dynamically instead of hardcoded wave limits, so you can dispatch wave5 or wave10 without manual script edits. Click the Catalyst logo to return to the mockup gallery, use the new breadcrumb navigation, or press ⌘K for a filterable command palette with nav shortcuts and appearance controls. Worker usage and costs now aggregate correctly into state.json during monitoring phases.

Session State Tracking & Restart

Active sessions now show liveness status and crash detection via catalyst-session.sh status, with automated restart commands for crashed Claude sessions that preserves your conversation history. Orchestrator worktrees get readable names like orch-deal-to-opportunity-2026-04-25 and write completion markers for clear done/in-progress distinction. Post-merge verification runs automatically on merged PRs when allowSelfReportedCompletion is disabled, filing remediation tickets instead of blocking merge.

Session Outcome & Iteration Tracking

Catalyst now emits session outcome events (success, fail, abandoned) and iteration counters to your observability stack, enabling cost-per-successful-outcome analysis and complexity measurement. The claude_code_iteration_count_total metric tracks plan-replan and implement-fix cycles separately, giving you visibility into which tickets require more rework. Run your database migrations to add the new session tracking columns.

PRs

  • dev: emit claude_code.session.outcome at session end (CTL-157) (#278) (6505cb0)
  • dev: iteration_count counter for plan-implement-validate loops (CTL-158) (#280) (18a2b7d)

Warp Tab Directory Tracking

The launch-worktree-tab.sh script now supports --shell-eval mode to properly set the working directory in Warp tabs. When you open Catalyst worktree tabs, Warp’s path indicator will now show the actual worktree path instead of defaulting to the main checkout directory.

PRs

  • dev: Warp tab shows worktree CWD via —shell-eval mode (#298) (ea30621)

7.12.2

Apr 27, 2026

Shell Evaluation CWD Fixes

Fixed Warp terminal integration where --shell-eval mode would show incorrect directory paths, create unwanted shell block splits, and kill the tab’s shell on Claude exit. Warp’s file explorer and path indicator now correctly track worktree directories, and Claude sessions return cleanly to your shell without spawning extra blocks.

PRs

  • dev: drop exec from —shell-eval to preserve tab shell (CTL-201) (#307) (3ee4048)
  • dev: force Warp CWD update before exec in —shell-eval mode (CTL-199) (#302) (d7c9ad8)
  • dev: replace warp_precmd with OSC 7 to prevent block split (CTL-201) (#308) (1e512b3)

Orchestration Monitor Refresh

Unified Kanban board with view toggles, project filters, and GitHub-style PR status indicators across home, orchestration, and worker views. Worker detail pages now show hero metrics (elapsed time, tokens, cost) above the phase timeline, while the orchestration view promotes todos to the top with an expanded 5-column worker board. Polling loops now include explicit sleep intervals to prevent GitHub API rate limit exhaustion.

PRs

  • dev: refresh orch-monitor mockups — Kanban, PR icons, filters, worker board (CTL-202) (#311) (934404f)
  • dev: add explicit sleep to polling loops (CTL-203) (#313) (bf90290)
  • dev: revert chrome.js to single-system per CTL-178 (CTL-202 follow-up) (#314) (2a4a344)

Linear UUID Caching

New resolve-linear-ids.sh script fetches and caches Linear team and workflow state UUIDs to reduce API rate limiting during issue transitions. The linear-transition.sh command now reads cached UUIDs from .catalyst/config.json instead of making repeated API calls, with full backward compatibility when cache is absent.

PRs

  • dev: cache Linear UUIDs to reduce API rate limit pressure (CTL-207) (#323) (ce82a8c)

Orchestrator-Driven Deploy Lifecycle

Worker definition-of-done now extends through production deploy success, with orchestrator managing the merging → merged → deploying → done state machine after workers exit at “merging”. Event-driven GitHub deployment monitoring replaces polling across skills like merge-pr and orchestrate. New catalyst-events CLI provides tail and wait-for primitives over the unified GitHub/Linear/comms activity log, while Linear webhooks join GitHub webhooks for comprehensive event ingestion.

PRs

  • dev: orchestrator-driven deploy lifecycle for workers (CTL-211) (#344)
  • dev: auto-pull main in primary worktree after PR merge (CTL-198) (#304) (d6ae3ba)

Webhook Auto-Registration & Verification Fixes

The setup-webhooks.sh script now auto-registers Linear webhooks with --linear-register --webhook-url <url>, eliminating the manual GraphQL mutation step that previously blocked event-driven workflows. Fixed four critical bugs in orchestrate-verify.sh that caused verification failures on merged PRs and produced malformed output with integer comparison errors. Existing GitHub webhook subscriptions automatically upgrade to include release and workflow_run events on daemon restart.

PRs

  • dev: Linear webhook auto-registration in setup-webhooks.sh (CTL-224) (#353) (8cf4807)
  • dev: repair orchestrate-verify.sh — broken on merged PRs + integer-cmp errors (CTL-222) (#352) (e98ffea)
  • dev: webhook event mapper — missing release/workflow_run + bogus pr.merged on label changes (CTL-226) (#351) (0668d38)

Groq-Powered Semantic Event Routing

The catalyst-filter daemon now routes GitHub webhook and Linear events through Groq Llama 3.1 8B, letting orchestrators register natural-language intents instead of writing complex jq filters. Bidirectional comms enable mid-flight orchestrator messages to workers, and heartbeat watchdog detection catches stalled workers without LLM calls. Install the new CLIs with catalyst-filter start and setup-webhooks.sh --register-github-hooks.
