A RunStore holds the state of one agent run. FlowStore owns the flow, gates, interrupts, and the session every run inherits, starts runs with startRun, and mirrors the active run. Runners and control hooks build the task stream per run. Generated-By: PostHog Desktop Task-Id: d14e92bb-6ee1-49b5-8502-39cb80079589

Frame diffs against P5 that are intended
- The second run of a composed flow starts with an empty status log. P5 showed the first run's tail (
PostHog integration complete) on the github screen until the second run pushed its own line. - The wizard-ask text is agent output and varies per run. The intro card centres on the temp dir name. The auth frame is a capture-timing substate (waiting for auth versus detecting).
Real runs through the socket route
Same route the workbench CI uses (scripts/tui-snapshots.no-jest.ts, project 228144, issued gateway bearer, throwaway fixture copies). posthog-integration is one run; self-driving chains two runs on one flow store, which is the case this refactor is for. Frames are compared against the P5 runs of the same programs after masking ANSI, MCP-created ids, the Program row, clock times, and the temp dir name.

"handoffText": "# PostHog Application Metrics — Setup Report\n\n## Summary\n\nAdded PostHog application metrics (`posthog.metrics`) to the existing Express todo API by reusing the existing `posthog-node` client already used for event capture and exception autocapture. No existing `capture()` calls, exception handling, or configuration were modified beyond adding the `metrics` block.\n\n- **SDK**: `posthog-node` `5.52.4` (already installed, exceeds the `>= 5.43.0` requirement — no version bump needed)\n- **Client**: the single existing `PostHog` instance in `index.js`, now configured with `metrics: { serviceName: 'express-todo' }`\n- **Env vars**: `POSTHOG_API_KEY` and `POSTHOG_HOST` were already present in `.env` — no changes needed\n\n## What was instrumented (`index.js`)\n\n### 1. Client configuration\nAdded `metrics: { serviceName: 'express-todo' }` to the existing `new PostHog(...)` call so all metric series are attributable to this service.\n\n### 2. Request/response layer (middleware — single choke point)\nA new `app.use` middleware, placed right after `express.json()` and before all routes, records on every request's `finish` event:\n- `http.requests` (count) — attributes: `method`, `route` (Express route pattern, e.g. `/api/todos/:id`), `status`\n- `http.request.duration` (histogram, `ms`) — same attributes\n\nUsing `req.route?.path` (not the raw URL) keeps `route` low-cardinality — it's the route pattern, not the interpolated todo ID.\n\n### 3. Business throughput counters\nAdded next to the existing `captureEvent(...)` calls for the same actions, so both the event and the metric are recorded at the single place each operation commits:\n- `todos.created` (count) — in `POST /api/todos`\n- `todos.updated` (count, attribute `completed`) — in `PATCH /api/todos/:id`\n- `todos.deleted` (count, attribute `was_completed`) — in `DELETE /api/todos/:id`\n- `todos.open` (gauge) — current count of incomplete todos, updated whenever the open count could have changed (create, completion toggle, delete)\n\n### 4. Error tracking\nAdded `http.errors` (count, attributes `method`, `route`) in the existing error-handling middleware, alongside the existing `posthog.captureException(...)` call.\n\n## Design notes\n\n- All metric calls are guarded by the same `if (posthog)` check already used for event capture, so a missing PostHog configuration still fails loudly outside production (existing behavior, untouched) and no-ops safely in production.\n- No `distinct_id`, session ID, todo ID, or other unbounded/PII value was used as a metric attribute — only bounded dimensions (`method`, `route` pattern, `status`, `completed`/`was_completed` booleans).\n- Metrics flush automatically on the existing interval and on the existing `shutdown()` call (`posthog.shutdown()` in the `SIGINT`/`SIGTERM` handler already flushes metrics along with events).\n- Metrics is in open alpha — enable it for this project under **Metrics → Enable metrics** in the PostHog sidebar if not already on, then trigger a few requests (`GET/POST/PATCH/DELETE /api/todos`) to see `http.requests`, `http.request.duration`, `todos.created`, `todos.updated`, `todos.deleted`, `todos.open`, and `http.errors` appear in the Metrics viewer within about a minute.\n\n## Files changed\n\n- `index.js` — metrics config on the existing client, request middleware, business counters/gauge, error counter (additive only)\n\n## Verification\n\n- No build/typecheck/lint script exists in `package.json` (`start`, `dev` only) — verified correctness by full-file review; all added code is syntactically consistent with the existing style and guarded identically to existing PostHog calls.\n- `posthog-node@5.52.4` (installed) exposes `posthog.metrics.count/gauge/histogram` — confirmed directly in `node_modules/posthog-node/dist/client.js`.\n",
