Fixes the "filing wedged after attaching a repo" bug (issue 3 in the entryscape bug report).

The bug

Attaching a repository makes its rig the routing target for the project's filings immediately, but the cell only materialises the rig (the Gas Town town directory holding its Beads graph) at deploy time (wg-provision-rigs). So the first filing after an attach is routed to a rig with no town directory and dies in fileplan with a raw:

bd list --all --json: cannot use -C directory "/srv/cells/oss/town/<rig>": no such file or directory

and stays wedged: you can't file (no rig) and can't dispatch work to trigger on-demand provisioning (no beads yet) until a full deploy runs.

It is NOT a GitHub-access problem

Verified on staging: the oss cell clones datopian/entryscape fine (git ls-remote succeeds; it's private, and private datopian/msf provisions the same way). entryscape simply was never created on the cell — absent from town/ and from rigs.json — because nothing provisioned it after attach.

Fix

The work path already provisions a missing rig on demand (ensureRiggastown.AddRig) using the clone URL + prefix the control plane sends with the job. Filing did neither. This makes filing do both:

  • control-api claim handler: for a file job (a rig but no bead), look up the rig's clone URL + prefix from system_rigs_wanted and send them — mirroring the bead path's system_rigs_wanted_for_bead.
  • dispatcher fileLoop: call ensureRig before fileplan, so a filing creates its rig's Beads graph if the cell lacks it. On failure it reports "rig %q is not provisioned on cell %q and could not be created …" — not the raw bd -C stat error.

Filing needs only the Beads graph, and gt creates it as part of the rig, so this closes the attach→file window for every project whose repo the cell can clone (the normal case, since attach validates the repo).

Verification

go vet ./cmd/dispatcher/... ./cmd/control-api/...   # clean
go test ./cmd/dispatcher/... ./cmd/control-api/...  # ok

Tests: a file job whose rig is missing provisions it (fake gt); a file job for a rig with nothing to clone fails with an actionable message that doesn't leak an internal bd path.

Follow-ups (not in this PR)

Still worth doing, per the bug report: a way to see rig provisioning state, to retry provisioning, and to detach a repo to return to the working (repo-less) shape. This PR removes the wedge; those improve operability around it.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Filing jobs can now automatically provision a missing rig when repository details are available.
    • File jobs can recover the required repository configuration after a repository is attached.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Jobs with unavailable or incomplete rig configuration now fail with clear, actionable messages instead of low-level path errors.
    • Processing continues with subsequent jobs when rig provisioning fails.

…sioned one

Attaching a repository to a project makes its rig the routing target for the
project's filings immediately, but the cell only materialises the rig (the Gas
Town town directory that holds its Beads graph) at deploy time via
wg-provision-rigs. So the first filing after an attach is routed to a rig with
no town directory and dies in fileplan with a raw

  bd list --all --json: cannot use -C directory
  "/srv/cells/oss/town/<rig>": no such file or directory

and stays wedged: you cannot file (no rig) and cannot dispatch work to trigger
on-demand provisioning (no beads yet) until a full deploy runs. Observed with a
freshly attached datopian/entryscape -- and it is NOT a GitHub-access problem:
the cell clones it fine (git ls-remote succeeds; private datopian/msf provisions
the same way). The rig simply was never created.

The work path already provisions a missing rig on demand (ensureRig ->
gastown.AddRig) using the clone URL and prefix the control plane sends with the
job. Filing did neither: the file loop never called ensureRig, and the claim
handler only sent the clone URL for bead-scoped jobs. This does both.

- control-api claim handler: for a file job (a rig but no bead), look up the
  rig's clone URL and prefix from system_rigs_wanted and send them, the way the
  bead path sends them from system_rigs_wanted_for_bead.
- dispatcher fileLoop: call ensureRig before fileplan, so a filing creates its
  rig's Beads graph if the cell does not have it yet. On failure it reports an
  actionable message ("rig %q is not provisioned on cell %q and could not be
  created ...: %v"), not the raw bd -C stat error.

Filing needs only the Beads graph, and gt creates it as part of the rig, so this
closes the attach->file window for every project whose repository the cell can
clone -- which, since attach validates the repository, is the normal case.

Tests: a file job whose rig is missing provisions it (fake gt); a file job for a
rig with nothing to clone fails with an actionable message that does not leak an
internal bd path.

Walkthrough

The control API now adds rig clone metadata to file jobs without beads. The dispatcher provisions the rig before filing and reports actionable errors when provisioning fails. Tests cover successful provisioning and missing clone URLs.

Changes

Filing Rig Provisioning

Layer / File(s) Summary
Populate rig provisioning metadata
cmd/control-api/main.go
File jobs without a bead query system_rigs_wanted and receive CloneURL and Prefix values for the named rig.
Provision rigs before filing

fileLoop calls ensureRig before filing. Provisioning failures mark the job as failed and continue processing. Tests cover successful provisioning and actionable errors without raw bd path details.

Failed rig provisioning can expose filesystem and credential-failure details to filing callers. Return a fixed failure message before merging.
