Wave: 3 - Operations Hardening

Summary

Make AI Inbox conventions explicit and reusable so tools do not rely on ad hoc column names or fragile defaults.

Scope

  • Centralize AI Inbox board/column constants: Captured, Clarify, Ready, Doing, Waiting, Done / Archived.
  • Validate metadata shape: source, sourceRef, createdByKind, sensitivity, relationshipRef, projectRef, lastAiSummary.
  • Ensure AI-created cards get visible marker/comment/audit context.
  • Keep ensure_ai_inbox and AI Inbox convenience MCP tools first-class.

Non-goals

  • No Fastmail/Signal/Obsidian import pipelines yet.
  • No second-brain memory model.
  • No autonomous task grooming.

Acceptance Criteria

  • AI Inbox setup is deterministic from a clean workspace.
  • Metadata validation rejects invalid source/sensitivity values cleanly.
  • Iskra can create/move cards by column name without knowing workspace/list IDs.
  • AI-origin markers are visible enough to reconstruct why a card exists.

Tests / Smoke

  • MCP smoke: get_default_context -> ensure_ai_inbox -> create -> move -> activity.
  • Validation tests for metadata enums.
  • Regression for idempotent ensure_ai_inbox.

Rollback

Disable strict metadata validation behind compatibility mode if existing production cards are affected.

Owner Gates

Owner approval before changing production AI Inbox seed behavior.
