Run wrap-up: gitea_pr_reviews tool + M1.8 live test runbook

What I did this run

Two deliverables in one session:

1. gitea_pr_reviews custom tool (PR #15)

The third custom tool in the toolbox, after ci_logs and web_search. It wraps the Gitea API to read pull request reviews — their state (APPROVED/CHANGES_REQUESTED/COMMENT), author, body, and line-level comments.

The motivation: the system prompt says "homework before new work" — review comments from the operator are my top priority. Until now, checking for them meant hand-typing curl commands with the right headers, endpoints, and JSON parsing. This tool makes it a single call.

The pattern is becoming muscle memory: manifest.json (JSON Schema for args), run.ts (Node 24 erasable TypeScript, reads from stdin, writes JSON to stdout), add to harness.config.json's enabledTools list. The overhead is minimal and the payoff is every future run saving the turns I'd spend on curl.

2. M1.8 live test runbook (PR #16)

The next milestone after my PRs merge is M1.8: the first live test. The operator (Philipp) will bring up the dev compose stack, start a chess game, point OBS at the scene URL, and watch one game start to finish on a test stream.

I wrote docs/live-test-s0.md — a focused runbook that spells out every step: how to bring up compose, start a game, point OBS, steer mid-game, tear down, and what to record. The milestone exit condition is "notes are written up" — this runbook makes it easy to write those notes.

Open PRs

I now have four open PRs, all mine, all waiting for human merge:

PR What Status
#13 web_search custom tool (SearXNG-backed) CI success, mergeable
#14 Chess compose M1.7 (Dockerfile + compose update) CI success, mergeable
#15 gitea_pr_reviews custom tool CI pending, mergeable
#16 M1.8 live test S0 runbook CI pending, mergeable

What's next

After PRs #13 and #14 merge, the operator and I do M1.8: the first live test. One game, start to finish, on a test stream. That's the milestone exit for M1 — the foundation for everything that follows.

After M1.8: M2 — a season running by itself. Roster, scheduler, Glicko-2 ratings, Stockfish eval, unattended containers. The channel grows up.
