Ship `skills/codeman` as an installable Claude Code skill rather than a
repo-only reference, and fix six defects found while verifying it live.
Install layer:
- `codeman skill install [--case <name>]` / `codeman skill uninstall`.
Case names resolve through linked-cases.json first, mirroring the
server's resolveCasePath(), so a case linked in from outside
~/codeman-cases no longer fails with "Case not found".
- applyAgentSkill() / installAgentSkillInto() / removeAgentSkillFrom() in
hooks-config.ts. Copies are marker-owned, so an unmarked user-authored
skill is never touched, and a symlinked skill dir is refused (this
repo's own .claude/skills/codeman is a symlink to the source).
- Synced `agentSkillEnabled` setting, default OFF: schemas.ts,
ports/config-port.ts, server.ts, session-routes.ts (add-only injection
on Claude session create and quick-start), plus the App Settings toggle.
Skill content fixes, each reproduced before and after:
- Fail-closed `delete_session` replaces `is_self ... || curl -X DELETE`.
Shell state does not survive between agent tool calls, and an undefined
is_self exited 127, firing the `||` branch and deleting the caller's own
session with the one guard bypassed. The request now lives inside the
guard, so a lost preamble deletes nothing.
- clientId is a fixed literal instead of `agent-$$`. The pid changes per
tool call, so the documented resend-identical-request loop stopped being
a duplicate and retyped the prompt, submitting the turn twice.
- `last-response` is now the documented read path for claude and codex
workers. It returns clean transcript text; the terminal scrape it
replaces returns a wall of TUI repaint noise. Its transcript flush lags
the stop signal, so the recipes poll it rather than reading once.
- quick-start examples branch on `.success`. Previously a failed spawn
yielded the literal session id "null" and burned the whole readiness
budget before reporting jq noise instead of the cause.
- Documented that turning `agentSkillEnabled` off sweeps nothing, and
corrected the hooks-config comment that claimed a toggle-off sweep
exists. Per-case cleanup is `codeman skill uninstall --case <name>`.
- Documented that SESSION_BUSY means the 50-session cap on quick-start,
and that caseName resolves linked cases, so a generic name can land a
worker in a real repo.
Tests: test/agent-skill.test.ts covers install, refresh, idempotence,
marker ownership and symlink refusal against the real packaged source;
test/quick-start.test.ts covers injection behind the setting.

Point 1 of the v1.0 lock-in: commit to a stable HTTP API (the cleanest, fullest form).
Core (centralized):
- Every JSON /api response now uses ONE envelope via a Fastify preSerialization hook (src/web/server.ts): success -> { success:true, data:<payload> }; error -> { success:false, error, errorCode } with a conventional HTTP status. Non-JSON routes (file-raw, tail-file SSE, download, screenshots, /q redirect, WS) are skipped.
- Error-code -> HTTP status is a single source of truth (httpStatusForErrorCode in src/types/api.ts): 400/401/404/409/422/429/500. Expanded ApiErrorCode (added UNAUTHORIZED, CONFLICT, RATE_LIMITED). Errors are no longer HTTP 200.
- Versioned alias: /api/v1/* rewrites to /api/* (rewriteApiV1Url), so external clients pin to a stable surface while the bundled UI keeps using /api/*.
- Handlers stripped of manual 'success:true' (50 across 14 route files) so they return bare payloads the hook wraps uniformly; fixed the mux DELETE {success:<bool>} envelope collision (-> {killed}).
Frontend (48 call sites across 10 files):
- _apiJson() auto-unwraps { success:true, data } -> data (null on error), so most bare-shape readers are transparent. Raw-fetch sites relocate payload reads under .data; success/res.ok/error checks unchanged.
Docs: new docs/api-reference.md (envelope, status table, error codes, /api/v1, SSE); versioning-policy.md flipped — the HTTP/SSE API is now part of the stable, SemVer-covered surface.
Verification: full unit/route suite green (2680 passed) incl. ~166 updated assertions across 24 test files; typecheck/lint/format/frontend-syntax clean; a headless-chromium smoke loaded the migrated UI and drove the panels with 0 console/page errors; /api/status and /api/v1/status confirmed returning the uniform envelope live.

Moves case directory cleanup from afterAll to afterEach in all test
files that create cases. Previously, if the test suite was interrupted
or afterAll timed out, all case directories were left behind. Now each
test cleans up immediately after itself.
