Answer

1. Namespace basename bug (home → project key). The old code derived the namespace from the home directory basename, collapsing every repo into one shared key. The fix resolves the namespace from the project identity (CLI override → board's project: header → git root basename → cwd):

def parse_project(md: str) -> str | None:
    m = re.search(r"^project\s*:\s*(\S+)\s*$", md, flags=re.MULTILINE)
    return m.group(1) if m else None

def project_namespace(project: str | None) -> str:
    if project:
        return project
    git_root = subprocess.run(["git", "rev-parse", "--show-toplevel"],
                              capture_output=True, text=True)
    if git_root.returncode == 0 and git_root.stdout.strip():
        return Path(git_root.stdout.strip()).name
    return Path.cwd().name

2. cooldown_s aligned with the live scheduler. The markdown board says 60; the live scheduler (live_state.json) says 300. The migration overrides stale board values with live ground truth:

def apply_live_overrides(rows, live):
    sched = live.get("scheduler", {})
    default_cooldown = sched.get("cooldown_s")
    for row in rows:
        state = sched.get("tasks", {}).get(row["task_id"], {})
        if default_cooldown is not None:
            row["cooldown_s"] = int(default_cooldown)   # live wins over markdown
        if "status" in state and state["status"] != row["status"]:
            row["status"] = state["status"]             # 🟡 in_progress -> 🟢 complete
    return rows

3. 🟡 in_progress → complete. T-002 ("migrate board to duckdb") is x under 🟡 in the matrix, but the scheduler reports it complete → migration marks it complete.

4. Two-commit cutover. Commit 1 ships migration + board/*.parquet + .gitignore (board.db, *.db); board.db is a gitignored thin DuckDB file with CREATE VIEW tasks/events AS SELECT * FROM read_parquet(...). After commit 1's hash is known, --backfill-commit <hash> stamps it into both parquet files → commit 2:

def backfill_commit(commit_hash):
    for path in (TASKS_PARQUET, EVENTS_PARQUET):
        frame = pq.read_table(path).set_column(
            frame.schema.get_field_index("commit_hash"),
            pa.field("commit_hash", pa.string()),
            pa.array([commit_hash] * frame.num_rows, type=pa.string()))
        write_parquet_if_changed(frame, path)

5. Determinism / idempotency guards (needed so a stray re-run can't dirty the tree between the two commits): timestamps come from the board's updated: header (not wall clock), and write_parquet_if_changed skips writes when existing.equals(frame); re-migration preserves an already-backfilled commit_hash.

Evidence & signatures

Set up `.coding-hermes/tasks.md` matrix (T-001 🟢, T-002 🟡, T-003 ⬜, T-004 🔴; cooldown 60), `live_state.json` (scheduler cooldown 300, T-002 complete), then ran the cutover and verified with `verify_board.py`, which reads parquet via `duckdb.read_parquet`/`pq.read_table` — **never opens `board.db`**:

```
15/15 checks passed
[PASS] namespace == declared project 'matrix-demo'
[PASS] namespace != home dir name
[PASS] cooldown_s == live scheduler 300 for all tasks
[PASS] no stale markdown cooldown (60) leaked
[PASS] T-002 status == complete (was 🟡 in_progress)
[PASS] tasks.commit_hash backfilled  /  events.commit_hash backfilled
[PASS] board.db gitignored
```

`read_parquet` output (tasks): status `['complete','complete','backlog','blocked']`, `cooldown_s [300,300,300,300]`, `namespace 'matrix-demo'` on every row, `commit_hash 'bfe8360…'` == the actual commit-1 hash. Git history: commit 2 `95f9ead` diff touches *only* the two parquet files; re-running the migration prints `unchanged board/tasks.parquet` / `unchanged board/events.parquet` and leaves `git status` clean.

Edge cases tested:
- **Idempotent re-run** — no byte change, tree stays clean (was broken pre-fix: wall-clock `updated_at` dirtied the tree).
- **`--project` CLI override** beats the declared header.
- **Missing `live_state.json`** — warns, falls back to markdown values (cooldown stays 60, T-002 stays `in_progress`), no crash.
- **Malformed board** (row with no status marker) — fails loudly with `ValueError: task T-9: no status marker found in matrix row`, exit 1.
- **Backfill same-hash re-run** — no-op; **re-migration after backfill** preserves the stamped `commit_hash`.
- **Sandbox conflation** (project dir == home dir) — caught by using declared project identity instead of cwd basename; assertion `namespace == declared project` guards regressions.
