+# Follow-up: Migrate per-action config into `BeaconActionDefault`
+
+**Status:** deferred — table and service are live; rows need populating.
+
+## Why this exists
+
+Per-action defaults (timeout, retry policy, priority, expected-wait
+baseline) live in scattered Fable settings today. The queueing work
+introduced a durable `BeaconActionDefault` table and a resolver
+([`Ultravisor-Beacon-ActionDefaults.cjs`](../../source/services/Ultravisor-Beacon-ActionDefaults.cjs))
+that an operator can tune live, without a hub restart.
+
+The resolver already falls back in this order:
+
+1. Per-request `Settings` override (`maxRetries`, `timeoutMs`, etc.)
+2. Per-action row (`Capability`, `Action`)
+3. Per-capability wildcard row (`Capability`, `Action=""`)
+4. Fable-setting compatibility shim
+   (`UltravisorBeaconWorkItemTimeoutMs`,
+   `UltravisorBeaconHeartbeatMs`)
+5. Hard defaults in `HARD_DEFAULTS`
+
+So today everything still works via step 4–5. This follow-up replaces
+the shim with real rows and retires the Fable settings.
+
+## What's in the table today
+
+Schema at [`Ultravisor-BeaconQueue.json`](../../source/datamodel/Ultravisor-BeaconQueue.json)
+(the `BeaconActionDefault` entry). Columns:
+
+| Column | Notes |
+|---|---|
+| `Capability` | required |
+| `Action` | `""` = wildcard for the capability |
+| `TimeoutMs` | overrides `UltravisorBeaconWorkItemTimeoutMs` |
+| `MaxAttempts` | 1 = no retry |
+| `RetryBackoffMs` | multiplied by attempt number |
+| `DefaultPriority` | scheduler sort key |
+| `ExpectedWaitP95Ms` | powers the `queue_wait` dimension of the health score |
+| `HeartbeatExpectedMs` | powers the `event_freshness` dimension |
+| `MinSamplesForBaseline` | min samples before `ActionDefaults.recomputeWaitBaseline` commits a p95 |
+
+## Work to do
+
+### 1. Inventory today's scattered settings
+
+Grep the ultravisor tree for the settings that currently drive
+per-action behavior:
+
+```sh
+grep -rn 'UltravisorBeaconWorkItemTimeoutMs\|UltravisorBeaconHeartbeatMs\|UltravisorBeaconAffinityTTLMs' \
+  /Users/steven/Code/retold/modules/apps/ultravisor/source
+```
+
+Also check the consumer code for per-action constants in task-type
+definitions (`source/services/tasks/**`) and capability providers
+(`source/beacon/providers/**`).
+
+### 2. Seed the table at startup
+
+Write `source/services/tasks/extension/Ultravisor-BeaconActionDefault-Seed.cjs`
+(or similar) that runs once on hub boot and upserts a row per
+(Capability, Action) pair the hub knows about. Source of truth is
+the action catalog on the coordinator
+([`Ultravisor-Beacon-Coordinator.cjs`](../../source/services/Ultravisor-Beacon-Coordinator.cjs)
+`_ActionCatalog`) — iterate it and call
+`store.upsertActionDefault({ Capability, Action, ...hard_defaults })`
+only when no row exists. Use `getActionDefault` first so operator-set
+rows aren't clobbered on every restart.
+
+The seed should **not** overwrite existing rows — it's a bootstrap,
+not a reset.
+
+### 3. Admin endpoints (optional, small)
+
+If the `/queue` UI wants live knobs, add:
+
+- `GET /Beacon/ActionDefaults` → `store.listActionDefaults()`
+- `PUT /Beacon/ActionDefaults/:Capability/:Action` → upsert
+  (call `store.upsertActionDefault` + `defaults.invalidate()`)
+
+Both gated by `_requireSession`.
+
+### 4. Wire up the wait-baseline learner
+
+`ActionDefaults.recomputeWaitBaseline(cap, action)` is implemented
+but not called anywhere yet. Trigger it on a slow interval (every 5
+minutes) from the scheduler, iterating capabilities that have seen
+≥ `MinSamplesForBaseline` completions since last recompute. Add a
+counter on the coordinator to track completions per capability so we
+don't recompute on no new data.
+
+Rough hook point: end of `UltravisorBeaconScheduler._summaryTick`, or
+a dedicated slower interval.
+
+### 5. Retire the Fable-setting shim
+
+Once (2) has been in place for at least one production cycle, remove
+the `_fableSettingFallback` in
+[`Ultravisor-Beacon-ActionDefaults.cjs`](../../source/services/Ultravisor-Beacon-ActionDefaults.cjs).
+Grep-clean the retired setting names from the codebase in the same PR
+so nobody reintroduces them. This is the step that makes the
+migration irreversible — don't do it in the same PR as the seeder.
+
+## Verification
+
+1. Wipe `~/.local/share/ultravisor/beacon/beacon-queue.sqlite` (or
+   wherever the store's DB path resolves for the deployment).
+2. Boot the hub. Confirm `BeaconActionDefault` has one row per known
+   `Capability:Action` pair with the expected defaults.
+3. `UPDATE BeaconActionDefault SET TimeoutMs = 1 WHERE Capability =
+   'Shell'`. Enqueue a Shell work item. The next
+   `BeaconActionDefaults._Cache` window (≤ 10s) flips it; next
+   work item picks up `TimeoutMs=1` without a hub restart.
+4. Run 30 Shell work items with genuinely varying queue waits; confirm
+   `ExpectedWaitP95Ms` updates on its own after the baseline learner
+   tick.
+
+## Non-goals
+
+- UI for editing action defaults (defer until the `/queue` view is
+  shipped and operators are asking for it).
+- Multi-tenant defaults (single-ultravisor-instance only).

+# Follow-up: Phase emission for `/Beacon/Work/Dispatch` (sync path)
+
+**Status:** deferred — the synchronous dispatch path bypasses the
+scheduler and therefore never populates `Settings.QueueMetadata`.
+Workers routed via `/Beacon/Work/Dispatch` still write their own
+phases, but the hub-owned `queue_wait` / `worker_spinup` /
+`asset_capture` records are skipped.
+
+## Background
+
+There are three dispatch paths in the hub today:
+
+| Path | Route | Queue/metadata? | Phases? |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Async queue | `POST /Beacon/Work/Enqueue` | Yes (via Scheduler) | Yes — beacon-side emits all three |
+| Polling claim | `POST /Beacon/Work/Poll` | Yes (Coordinator stamps metadata in `_sanitizeWorkItemForBeacon`) | Yes — same |
+| **Direct dispatch** | `POST /Beacon/Work/Dispatch` | **No** — calls `Coordinator.dispatchAndWait` which builds the work item inline and blocks the caller on the response | **No** — Settings.QueueMetadata is never set |
+
+The direct-dispatch path is used for synchronous RPC-style calls
+where the caller wants the result inline. It's rare but real — a
+handful of retold-labs call sites and any external integration that
+chose the sync contract for simplicity.
+
+## Why this is separate from the main work
+
+`dispatchAndWait` constructs the work item in a hot request handler
+and resolves to the caller via `_DirectDispatchCallbacks`. It
+intentionally skips the scheduler tick because the caller is
+blocked waiting. Retrofitting it requires either:
+
+1. Routing it through the same scheduler pass (adds latency — the
+   whole point of direct dispatch is "don't queue"), or
+2. Populating `QueueMetadata` inline in the Coordinator when building
+   the work item and calling the beacon-side phase emit path directly.
+
+Option 2 is correct. The queue wait for this path is near-zero by
+definition, so the `queue_wait` record will almost always be `0ms`,
+but the `worker_spinup` and `asset_capture` records still have
+real durations worth capturing.
+
+## Work to do
+
+### 1. Populate `QueueMetadata` inline in `dispatchAndWait`
+
+**File:** [`Ultravisor-Beacon-Coordinator.cjs`](../../source/services/Ultravisor-Beacon-Coordinator.cjs)
+
+Find `dispatchAndWait` (search for the method definition). Where it
+constructs the work item, set `Settings.QueueMetadata` the same way
+`_sanitizeWorkItemForBeacon` does it now, but with the sync-path
+timestamps:
+
+```javascript
+let tmpNowIso = new Date().toISOString();
+tmpWorkItem.EnqueuedAt = tmpNowIso;
+tmpWorkItem.DispatchedAt = tmpNowIso;
+tmpWorkItem.QueueWaitMs = 0;
+tmpWorkItem.AttemptNumber = 1;
+tmpWorkItem.RunID = pWorkItemInfo.RunID || '';
+tmpWorkItem.Settings = tmpWorkItem.Settings || {};
+tmpWorkItem.Settings.QueueMetadata = {
+  RunID: tmpWorkItem.RunID,
+  WorkItemHash: tmpWorkItem.WorkItemHash,
+  EnqueuedAt: tmpNowIso,
+  DispatchedAt: tmpNowIso,
+  QueueWaitMs: 0,
+  AttemptNumber: 1,
+  HubInstanceID: (this.fable.settings && this.fable.settings.UltravisorHubInstanceID) || '',
+  DispatchPath: 'sync'
+};
+```
+
+Note the extra `DispatchPath: 'sync'` marker — useful for analytics
+that want to separate sync-call latency from async-queue latency.
+
+### 2. Stream the same metadata through `DispatchStream`
+
+**File:** [`Ultravisor-API-Server.cjs`](../../source/web_server/Ultravisor-API-Server.cjs)
+
+`POST /Beacon/Work/DispatchStream` is the binary-framed variant. It
+calls the coordinator's streaming-dispatch machinery, which also
+builds a work item inline. Same fix pattern: set `QueueMetadata` on
+the work item before the first beacon frame is sent. Look for the
+method that parallels `dispatchAndWait` for streams (grep for
+`_StreamDispatchHandlers`).
+
+### 3. Add a `POST /Beacon/Work/Dispatch` body field for `RunID`
+
+The sync path doesn't call `/Beacon/Run/Start` before dispatching —
+it's a one-shot. Either:
+
+- Accept an optional `RunID` in the request body; if absent, mint one
+  on the fly via `RunManager.startRun({ SubmitterTag: 'sync' })` so
+  the sync call still lands in `BeaconRun` for observability; **or**
+- Skip run registration for sync calls entirely and emit phases with
+  `RunID=""`.
+
+The first option keeps the `/queue` UI's event stream complete. Lean
+toward (a).
+
+### 4. Accept that retold-labs capability handlers already DTRT
+
+Once (1) lands, `Settings.QueueMetadata` is populated on every work
+item regardless of dispatch path.
+[`RetoldLabs-BeaconSetup.cjs`](../../../retold-labs/source/RetoldLabs-BeaconSetup.cjs)
+already checks `pWorkItem.Settings.QueueMetadata` before emitting;
+the sync path will automatically start producing phases with no
+retold-labs changes needed.
+
+## Verification
+
+1. Issue `POST /Beacon/Work/Dispatch` with `{ Capability: "Shell",
+   Action: "Execute", Settings: { Command: "sleep 1" } }`.
+2. The response comes back synchronously (same as today).
+3. In the beacon's staging dir, the resulting `phases.jsonl`
+   contains `queue_wait` (duration ≤ 5ms), `worker_spinup`,
+   worker-emitted `run_start` / `phase` / `run_end`, and
+   `asset_capture`.
+4. The `BeaconRun` table has a new row with `SubmitterTag='sync'`.
+5. The `BeaconWorkItemEvent` table has the `dispatched` event
+   with `Payload.Path='sync'` (add this marker in step 1 if you want
+   to separate it from poll-path dispatches in analytics).
+
+## Non-goals
+
+- Retrofitting existing direct-dispatch callers to switch to async
+  enqueue. Sync contracts exist for a reason — let callers choose.
+- Differentiating `queue_wait` reason for sync vs. async in the UI.
+  0ms queue waits tell the right story on their own.
