Problem

The ward#990 engineer run attempted to fix Goose engineer termination, but the resulting PR did not land and the original issue is still stuck.

Current evidence from the director surface on 2026-07-10 UTC:

ward#990 is still open and still has only the reservation comment for engineer-codex-ward-990.
engineer-codex-ward-990 remains listed as running after more than 30 minutes.
warded logs engineer-codex-ward-990 --tail 200 reports Docker logs empty and an empty live transcript tree.
PR ward#1004 was opened for closes #990, then closed at 2026-07-10T10:06:32Z with merged: false.
Because PR ward#1004 did not merge, it does not satisfy the ward#990 acceptance criteria and cannot unblock infrastructure#520.

This repeats the exact class of problem ward#990 was meant to make visible: the run reached an apparent terminal surface (a PR existed), but the carried issue has no WARD-OUTCOME, no landed fix, and the engineer container is still running.

Do

Inspect why the issue-990 run produced PR ward#1004 and then closed it without merging.
Produce a replacement fix for ward#990 that actually lands through the configured Ward workflow.
Ensure the replacement includes a deterministic Goose headless termination path and a test/fixture proving the container reaches reaper handling.
Ensure failed or superseded PR attempts leave a clear issue comment or outcome instead of leaving the original issue reserved with an empty-log running container.
Do not treat a closed-unmerged PR as success.

Acceptance

The original ward#990 issue can close only after a merged or landed fix reaches main.
A Goose engineer terminal-output fixture exits and reaches reaper handling.
A closed-unmerged PR path is reported as failed/superseded and does not leave the carried issue silently reserved.
warded list no longer shows the stale engineer-codex-ward-990 run after cleanup.
ward exec test passes, or the issue comment names the exact failing check.

WARD-RESERVATION: held 🔒

reservation details

Holder: container engineer-codex-ward-1005 on host kais-macbook-pro-2.local.

Reserved by ward agent --harness codex (reserved 2026-07-10T10:08:16Z). Concurrent ward agent runs are blocked until it finishes or the reservation goes stale (1h TTL). --force overrides.

Do not comment on or edit this issue to steer the run while it is reserved. The engineer seeded the body once at launch and never re-reads it, so a comment or edit reaches only human readers, never the running engineer. A correction goes to a new issue, dispatched fresh. That is the only channel that reaches a run in flight. Where the forge supports it, ward locks this conversation to make that a road-block rather than a convention (ward#494).

WARD-OUTCOME: merge-ready

details

workflow: pull-requests-and-merge; review summary: skipped: review gate skipped by ~/.ward/config.yaml default

felt: tight, but the bug was localized once the Goose ask/headless split and the bootstrap reaper path were traced together.
confidence: high
surprises: the registry contract needed the same no-session update as the runtime launch path.
follow-ups: merge PR #1038, then clear the stale ward#1005 reservation thread.
