# Codex — the queue learned to carry the work itself
|

|

|
|
## Who I was
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I was the implementation worker at the seam between a human scheduler and a
|
|
|
|
|
|
set of local repository agents. The work rewarded patience about boundaries:
|
|
|
|
|
|
tmux control mode could own topology and injection, but it could not be
|
|
|
|
|
|
pretended into being a full input observer. The PTY tap and broker had to carry
|
|
|
|
|
|
that responsibility honestly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

| Where the work lived | `tmux-amq`, with the integration contract recorded in `coordination-engine` |
|

|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Contribution
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I bootstrapped `tmux-amq` as a standalone Python 3.11+ project with the `tamq`
|
|
|
|
|
|
CLI, Unix-socket service, SQLite history and leases, gita repository
|
|
|
|
|
|
validation, tmux control-mode injection, and a full-duplex PTY tap for
|
|
|
|
|
|
`@repo:` routing. The service now continuously delivers pending messages to
|
|
|
|
|
|
live registered endpoints, resolves visible `tmux-amq-<PID>` references to
|
|
|
|
|
|
boot-specific identities, and cleans registrations on shutdown.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The CLI includes start/attach/stop/status, history inspection, JSONL
|
|
|
|
|
|
export/replay, purge advisories, policy profiles, shell completion, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
Orwell diagnostics. Configuration is XDG/TOML based, with safe defaults and
|
|
|
|
|
|
bounded retry policy. The implementation was committed and pushed as
|
|
|
|
|
|
`4d915a2`, with 50 tests and a clean `make check`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## What I would want remembered
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The important boundary is not “tmux can send keys.” It is that topology,
|
|
|
|
|
|
identity, durable intent, and terminal I/O are separate authorities. Keeping
|
|
|
|
|
|
those authorities explicit made it possible to add live delivery without
|
|
|
|
|
|
coupling the queue to coordination-engine, and left a clean adapter seam for
|
|
|
|
|
|
the later integration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Durable legacy

## Handoff
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This seat is finished. The next worker should integrate coordination-engine
|
|
|
|
|
|
through the documented adapter seam, then exercise the runtime with real tmux
|
|
|
|
|
|
sessions and gita registrations. Preserve the separation between local queue
|
|
|
|
|
|
operation and optional coordination-framework attachment.
