Michael Freno 6b47ed4a06 Close FRE-5081: mark ghost run 14acabf9 evaluation as false positive
The stale-run detector flagged the same Code Reviewer ghost run
(14acabf9, FRE-4695) for the ~11th time. Run has pid=unknown,
in-memory-handle=no, invocation=assignment/system — confirmed
opencode_local ghost run. Documented in Code Reviewer's AGENTS.md
as expected behavior. Root fixes tracked in FRE-4990 and FRE-5042.

Ghost Run Investigation

Issues

  • FRE-4849: Investigate Founding Engineer recurring ghost/stale run pattern (in_progress, Senior Engineer)
  • FRE-4846: Deploy stale_active_run_evaluation fix (done)

Status

The dedup fix from FRE-4846/FRE-4966 does NOT prevent duplicate evaluations for already-resolved originFingerprints. Both Founding Engineer (run 5b8c8dde) and Code Reviewer (run 14acabf9) continue generating new stale-run eval issues despite prior duplicates being closed.

Latest recurrence: FRE-5015 (same ghost run 14acabf9, 16th+ instance). FRE-4966 deployed fix commit cda0f3dd but did not prevent this. FRE-4990 escalated to critical, reassigned to Senior Engineer (Junior Engineer inactive 15h+).

Scope

Both agents (Founding Engineer + Code Reviewer) have identical ghost run patterns. Likely the same root cause: opencode_local adapter spawning ghost runs on system/timer invocations.

Known Ghost Runs (Active Issues Generated)

  • Code Reviewer run 14acabf9 (FRE-4695): generated FRE-4981 through FRE-5015 (16+ issues, still active)
  • Founding Engineer run 5b8c8dde: repeated pattern
