## AUDIT DECISION: PASS
**Ticket:** #166 - Bug: Worker marked busy but no session created
**PR:** #90
**Reviewer:** tinker-reviewer
**Priority:** HIGH
### Decision: PASS AUDIT ✅
This PR fixes a critical bug where agents could be marked "busy" via the `mark_busy` MCP tool without having an active AgentSession, causing terminal logs to have nowhere to attach.
### What Was Fixed
**Root Cause:** The `mark_busy` tool only updated `availability_status` but didn't verify a running session existed.
**Solution:**
- ✅ `mark_busy` now requires an active running session
- ✅ Returns helpful error if no session exists
- ✅ Added zombie detection scope (`busy_without_session`)
- ✅ Added auto-cleanup method (`mark_idle_if_no_session!`)
### Implementation Quality
**Fail-Fast Approach:** Prevents zombie state at the source by checking for running session before allowing busy status.
**Helpful Error Messages:** Clear guidance on how sessions are created externally.
**Zombie Detection:** Can find and cleanup agents stuck in "busy but no session" state.
**Well-Tested:** 12 new test examples covering all code paths.
### Test Results
- Agent specs: 38/38 passed ✅
- Full suite: 688 passed, 2 pre-existing failures (unrelated)
### Ready to Merge
This is a high-priority bug fix with solid implementation. No issues found. Ready to merge immediately.
