Smart Merge Blocker Diagnosis
The merge-pr skill now queries GitHub’s full merge state to identify specific blockers (failing CI, unresolved review threads, missing approvals, outdated branches) and automatically resolves what it can in a unified loop. When blockers can’t be auto-fixed, you get actionable guidance like which reviewers to request or which files have conflicts — never generic “branch protection is blocking” errors. The new review-comments skill resolves GitHub review threads after addressing each comment, and oneshot workflows now wait for automated reviewers before attempting merge.

Global Orchestration State Tracking
All active orchestrators are now tracked in a queryable global state registry with event logging and token usage monitoring. The orchestrator automatically syncs worker progress, captures costs from Claude CLI output, and maintains an audit trail in monthly-rotated event logs. Workers report status to the global state and raise attention flags when blocked, giving you full visibility into multi-agent workflows through catalyst-state.sh queries or dashboard integrations.

Setup Orchestrate Skill
The new /catalyst-dev:setup-orchestrate skill creates a bootstrapped orchestrator worktree and outputs a single copy-paste command to launch your run — no more manual shell scripting. Worktrees are now automatically trusted in Claude Code during creation, eliminating the trust dialog when you open them.

Zero-Interaction Orchestration Setup
The setup-orchestrate command now runs without any prompts or menus — just pass your ticket IDs and it creates the worktree, generates a date-based orchestrator name, and prints the next command to run. It hard-stops if run from a worktree instead of asking whether to continue, keeping setup predictable and fast.

Orchestration Monitor
Live dashboard tracks your orchestrator runs in real-time with worker status, phase timelines, and cost analytics.

Linearis Command Consolidation
Removed duplicated Linear CLI commands from 8 files, making the linearis skill the single source of truth for all command syntax and options.

PR Polling Through Merge
Orchestrated workers now actively poll PR state, CI status, and review comments until merge completion instead of exiting after creating the PR. The verification script independently confirms PRs reached MERGED state, catching any workers that ignore polling instructions. Workers wait a minimum 3 minutes then poll every 30 seconds with concrete step-by-step instructions.

Worker Worktree Context Fix
Fixed ticket extraction in worker worktrees so branches like orch-data-import-2026-04-13-ADV-220 correctly identify ADV-220 as the current ticket instead of false matches from orchestrator prefixes. Worker worktrees now include an orchestration field in their workflow context, enabling proper telemetry grouping across orchestrator and worker sessions.

Orchestrator-Controlled Merge Polling
Workers now exit cleanly after opening PRs with auto-merge armed, while the orchestrator handles the long poll until actual merge completion. This fixes premature worker termination issues where subprocess workers would exit before PRs were fully merged, with the orchestrator taking over merge monitoring duties and updating worker status when PRs complete.

Fix-up and Follow-up Recovery Patterns
Two new orchestration patterns handle post-merge issues: fix-up workers push targeted commits to open PRs when reviewers find blockers, while follow-up workers create new Linear tickets and fresh worktrees for issues discovered after merge. Use orchestrate-fixup and orchestrate-followup scripts to dispatch the appropriate recovery pattern based on your PR state.

Pre-assigned Migration Numbers
The orchestrator now reserves sequential Supabase migration numbers for database tickets during wave briefing, preventing filename collisions when multiple workers generate migrations in parallel. Migration-likely tickets are detected via labels (database, migration, schema) and keywords, then assigned unique NNN_ prefixes that appear in the briefing’s new Migration Number Assignments section.

SQLite Session Store
Catalyst now persists all agent activity—both solo and orchestrated sessions—to a durable SQLite database instead of fragile per-worker JSON files.

Session Lifecycle CLI
The new catalyst-session command gives any skill a universal interface to report lifecycle events, metrics, and tool usage to the SQLite session store.

SQLite Session Integration
Solo Claude Code sessions now appear directly in the orchestration monitor alongside workflow workers, giving you one unified view of all AI development activity.

Session-Aware Skills
All six Catalyst skills now automatically track their execution as observable sessions with lifecycle events and phase transitions.

Multi-Frontend SSE Event Architecture
Catalyst now sends all orchestration events through a standardized envelope format with filtering support. Connect multiple frontends or tools to the same session using SSE query params like ?filter=session-update,metrics-update or ?session=abc123 to get only the events you need. The new typed event system supports session updates, metrics changes, and annotation events with automatic envelope wrapping for consistent downstream processing.
