 ### Added
 
+- #621: Add explicit task collaborators and responsibilities, validated dependency graphs, acceptance-based readiness, scoped delivery context and immutable execution snapshots with live project/review inspection.
+- Versioned project task briefings: server-owned goal/task requirements and acceptance criteria enter execution and persist for conversation/review inspection, with stale-plan protection and preserved retry/approval bindings (#619).
 - #617：接力任务支持可选本步要求，以及与模型输入一致的交接快照；可查看前序结果来源、裁剪和过滤提示，共享现有上下文预算并去除重复来源。新增本地记录字段，降级旧版本前请备份工作区。
 
 ### Added
@@ -77,7 +79,6 @@
 - #559：新增协作区人工验收契约，验收通过必须完整覆盖计划中的全部验收项；限制标识符、时间戳和产物路径，拒绝遗漏或越界的裁决。
 
 - #469：可选 Laya 接力停止建议。仅在 `ROLEWEAVE_LAYA_ENABLED` 开启、已完成步骤得到正向建议且仍有未执行步骤时暂停；桌面端由 owner 显式选择“停止剩余步骤”或“继续接力”。30 秒超时、SSE 断连、无效或失败建议均继续原 mention order；Laya 只接收 `status`、`errorCode`、`hasOutput`，不接收输入、输出或 handoff 文本。已接受的消息与 spawn 清单保持不可变。Refs #422。
->>>>>>> origin/main
 
 - #360：工作区 `work/` 领地布局。initialize/create 脚手架 `work/README.md`（已有工作区不加强制迁移）。hire 创建 `work/<positionId>/`，仅给 hire 岗位生成 SKILL.md Territory 段，并把新角色的 `memoryScope` 写成 `./work/<positionId>/`；项目负责人保持 `memoryScope: "/"`，SKILL 不声称不存在的 `work/<owner>/`。默认 `toolAllow` 只有 Read/Grep/Glob，不含 Write/Edit/Bash。hire 任何 staging 失败都回滚声明文件。employee.json 摘要密封机制不变。Refs #360。

+# Project task briefings v1
+
+Tracking: #619, follow-up to #617/#618. Phase 2a of the collaborator-context roadmap covers project delegation requirements and their inspection during human review. It uses existing goal work items, sessions, turns and human acceptance. Agent reviewer dispatch, task-board execution, participants/dependencies and live coordination remain future slices.
+
+## Contract and authority
+
+Project Run adds `taskBriefing: { expectedWorkspacePath, expectedUpdatedAt }` to the existing personal-session turn request, alongside `goalId` and `branchId` (work item ID). It sends no client-authored snapshot. HTTP and desktop IPC share an exact-fields validator.
+
+The server binds the request to the captured open workspace, loads the goal, compares its exact revision, resolves the work item and checks that the recipient is still the assignee. Missing goals, removed tasks, changed revisions/assignees and wrong workspaces fail before model execution. Older callers without the opt-in retain existing goal-tag semantics; bare and group routes do not accept it. A rejection is never retried by dropping requirements.
+
+## Snapshot and input
+
+`TurnRecord.taskBriefing?: TaskBriefingSnapshot` contains:
+
+- `payload`: `task-briefing.v1`, generation and plan timestamps, goal/task/turn/session/employee identities, goal title/description, task title/description, ordered acceptance criteria and redaction flag;
+- `payloadBytes` and `payloadDigest`: UTF-8 length and SHA-256 of canonical payload serialization.
+
+Canonical serialization sorts object keys recursively and preserves array order. Relay handoffs use the same helper without changing their bytes. Hashes detect consistency errors; they are not signatures or proof of business correctness.
+
+Recognizable credentials and private reasoning markers are filtered using the existing context sanitizer. There is no model summarization call. Requirements and criteria remain whole after filtering: a serialized payload exceeding 48 KiB fails explicitly and asks for a shorter plan. An incomplete checklist is never silently substituted.
+
+The rendered mandatory briefing is reserved before optional history. Both share the existing 64-KiB context and 256-KiB final-input limits, including JSON escaping, response presentation, attachments and vault content. Disabling optional conversation history does not disable an explicitly requested briefing. The same serialized payload appears in the sealed input and running record; storage precedes model execution. Original user input remains unchanged in `TurnRecord.input`.
+
+Readers validate exact fields, sizes/counts, timestamps and hashes, then enforce parent turn/session/goal/task/employee/time and context-receipt linkage. Terminal records retain the running snapshot. Reopening a workspace reads it rather than regenerating from the latest goal.
+
+## Retry, approval and review
+
+Explicit retries inherit the source snapshot's goal/task/plan binding. They cannot change it, invent a briefing for an unbound historical retry, or silently drop it. The server reloads and validates the plan; changes require a fresh launch. Approval and atomic batch resumes carry the same binding. A changed plan prevents model execution and the existing approval machinery records the failure.
+
+The latest eligible completed delivery projects its briefing alongside the exact output/session/digest reference. Personal conversations and the human acceptance drawer show an expandable, bounded text-only view. The drawer preserves execution-time requirements, warns when the project revision differs and keeps current human-review criteria separate. Historical deliveries without a snapshot remain reviewable and explicitly state that it is unavailable.
+
+Human acceptance remains authoritative: output digest, current criteria, workspace/revision checks, idempotency and operator verdicts are unchanged. Briefings grant no acceptance, capabilities, resource access or budget.
+
+## Validation and delivery
+
+- Pure tests: request contract, injected bytes, mandatory-context priority, escaped/UTF-8 budgets, complete criteria or explicit rejection, filtering, tampering and parent linkage.
+- Controlled-driver API tests: running/completed/reopened equality; plan edits leave old snapshots intact; stale/missing/foreign requests never call the model; retries and approval resumes retain bindings and reject changed plans.
+- IPC and renderer tests: launch metadata, no conflict fallback, personal adapter, expansion/collapse, current vs execution criteria, historical delivery compatibility.
+- Browser QA: actual project Run → saved delivery → human review using production components/CSS and a deterministic local control plane, with desktop/narrow screenshots. Live-provider quality and native OS packaging are distinct checks.
+- Explicit runtime packaging inventory; repository checks and CI results recorded on the PR. No coverage percentage is claimed.
+
+Deploy matching renderer/IPC/server. Older strict readers may reject new records. Revert code to roll back and use pre-upgrade backups or separate workspaces when downgrading; do not delete historical evidence to fabricate compatibility.
+
+## Remaining roadmap
+
+Phase 2b: dispatch an employee to review a pinned delivery version, with original criteria and source references while final acceptance stays with the human. It needs a separate review-attempt identity so review output cannot become the implementation delivery.
+
+Phase 3 is implemented for project work items in #621: participants/responsibilities, scoped dependency and delivery evidence, fixed execution snapshots and current-state refresh. See [task-collaboration-context-v1.md](task-collaboration-context-v1.md) for the contract and its boundaries. Other task spines, automatic dispatch and live negotiation remain separate work.

+# Task collaboration context v1
+
+Tracking: #621. Phase three extends project goal work items with explicit collaborators and task dependencies. It builds on relay snapshots (#617) and project task briefings (#619). Project work items are the executable task spine covered here; unbound personal conversations and task-board bookkeeping do not invent collaboration relationships. Agent reviewer dispatch (phase 2b), automatic scheduling and live negotiation (#452) remain separate capabilities.
+
+## Human-owned plan
+
+`GoalWorkItem` gains optional fields:
+
+```ts
+participants?: { positionId: string; role: "contributor" | "reviewer"; responsibility: string }[];
+dependsOn?: string[];
+```
+
+At most eight extra participants and eight predecessors per task; responsibilities are explicit, nonblank and at most 1024 characters. The assignee remains the primary recipient and cannot be duplicated among participants. Recording a reviewer does not dispatch them or give them acceptance authority.
+
+The complete submitted work-item list validates duplicates, employee identifiers, missing/self edges and cycles. Dependencies reference tasks in the same goal. Fan-in expresses dependencies on parallel upstream tasks. The HTTP update route verifies declared collaborators against current workspace employees; execution verifies their continued availability.
+
+Removing a referenced task requires explicitly editing its incoming references first. Omitting relationship fields while editing an existing task preserves them, protecting against writers that do not know these new fields. Explicit empty arrays clear relationships. The merged plan is validated again under the existing goal edit lock; plan, graph and optimistic revision checks commit atomically.
+
+## Readiness and scope
+
+`GoalDetail.taskCollaborations` projects each task's explicit collaborators, direct predecessors and direct downstream references. Upstream evidence is resolved from current turn/delivery/acceptance projections, scoped to that goal and task. A task without relationships has empty lists.
+
+| Readiness | Required evidence |
+| --- | --- |
+| `accepted` | Upstream plan status is done; latest eligible execution has a completed personal-session delivery; its exact position/turn/session/output digest matches the latest human acceptance; criteria match current goal criteria. |
+| `manual_done` | Explicit manual done state with no task-bound execution or acceptance history. No delivery is invented. |
+| `pending` | Work, output or current human acceptance is missing, or a newer attempt/criteria invalidated old acceptance. |
+| `unavailable` | Execution evidence cannot be read. This never degrades into manual completion. |
+
+Only accepted/manual-done direct predecessors permit execution. A new failed/running/unknown predecessor attempt blocks future launches even if the human-owned status still says done. Manual completion remains an explicit human plan fact. Readiness is a direct-dependency contract, not automatic cascading workflow acceptance.
+
+Execution re-reads evidence before preparing the turn. Configured tasks cannot bypass the gate by omitting a briefing, using a bare turn, or using group dispatch. Group rejection occurs before durable acceptance. Unrelated legacy goal tags remain supported. A missing source/evidence read prevents the model call; no used snapshot is fabricated.
+
+## Snapshot and budgets
+
+The existing `TaskBriefingPayload` gains optional `collaboration`, with schema `task-collaboration.v1`: goal/task identity, capture time, participants, dependencies, downstream references, omission count and redaction facts. Each dependency may include execution status and an exact public delivery reference: employee, turn, session, output digest, completion time, filtered excerpt and excerpt digest. Accepted dependencies retain acceptance ID/time. It contains no resource grants, private session history or model reasoning.
+
+Public output filtering occurs before UTF-8 shortening. Each excerpt is at most 2 KiB. At most eight direct downstream references enter the view/snapshot; an explicit count records remaining direct downstream tasks. Dependency requirements and participant instructions are not silently omitted: the existing 48-KiB required-briefing cap rejects oversized input.
+
+Canonical payload serialization is both injected and saved in the running record before model execution. The total remains within the existing 64-KiB context and 256-KiB input budgets. Dependency delivery identities reserve slots in the shared 12-source limit and are deduplicated against optional history. Deduplication is not counted as omission.
+
+Readers validate exact fields, limits, timestamps, source/excerpt digests, readiness semantics, unique sources, parent goal/task/time/employee linkage and context source counts. Existing snapshots without collaboration remain valid. Hashes provide consistency, not authenticity or business approval.
+
+## Refresh and review
+
+Current UI state reuses goal/turn events, reconnect refresh, explicit refresh and the existing periodic project refresh. It exposes observed-at time and source-session navigation. Started executions retain their captured input; events never silently rewrite it. Later launches, explicit retries and approval resumes refresh dependencies while retaining their existing task/plan binding checks.
+
+The task editor records responsibilities and dependencies; cards/schedule rows expose relation details and readiness. Unready or unverifiable dependencies disable Run, while the server remains authoritative against stale clients. The acceptance drawer keeps execution-time collaboration separate from current state and warns when they differ. Human criteria/output/version/idempotency checks remain in force; collaboration data does not auto-accept work.
+
+## Verification and delivery
+
+Contract/DAG tests; API validation, legacy-writer preservation and bypass tests; accepted/manual/unknown/new-attempt readiness; source deduplication and shared budgets; running/terminal/reopened snapshot equality and tampering; editor, source navigation, snapshot/current-state distinction and reconnect tests. Browser QA uses real project components, local control-plane HTTP/SSE and a deterministic driver at desktop/narrow widths, not a live-provider quality claim. Required check results and native CI coverage are recorded on the PR.
+
+Deploy matching server, IPC and renderer. Optional fields preserve current-reader compatibility, but older strict readers can reject new records. Revert code to roll back and use pre-upgrade backups or separate workspaces when downgrading. Do not erase historical snapshots to fabricate compatibility.

A validated acyclic graph and authoritative latest-delivery/human-acceptance checks gate execution. Configured tasks cannot bypass the gate with unbound goal-tag execution. Manual done states remain distinct from accepted execution evidence.
+
+The task briefing now captures the same versioned collaboration context injected into input. Direct public delivery excerpts/digests reserve source slots and deduplicate against optional history; budgets remain shared. Current task views refresh through existing events/reconnection while running and historical snapshots remain fixed. Human review can compare saved and current collaboration. Omitted relationship fields preserve existing configuration; explicit empty arrays clear it.
+
+See [task-collaboration-context-v1.md](design/task-collaboration-context-v1.md) for limits, readiness, validation, compatibility and rollback.
