Checkpoints were only enabled for runs with a GitHub source, so local
folder runs, empty Local runs and dry runs stopped committing. `fabro
diff` then failed for them, and their checkpoint, run branch and diff
records disappeared from the event stream.
A run whose workspace is on the host now commits checkpoints there
again, without pushing, as on main. Docker and Daytona runs with no
GitHub source still record execution checkpoints without Git commits,
so a sandbox image without `git` cannot fail the run.
The scenario tests for crash recovery go back to asserting commits. A
workspace deleted while the run is down now fails the resumed run,
since the server keeps no copy to restore it from.

Pushing the run branch and opening the pull request now happen in the
run's worker, in Fabro's run_finished hook, after the last stage and
before the run's terminal record, as the legacy publish step did. A
failed push or pull request fails the run with publish_failed instead of
leaving a warning on a run that already succeeded.
fabro-petri gains a RunPublisher the hooks call for a successful run with
its run branch, final commit, snapshot repository and patch; the worker's
GitHub publisher pushes from the snapshot repository with a push token it
mints at that moment, opens the pull request its settings ask for, and
records it. The worker resolves the server's GitHub credentials itself
for both the read-only checkout token and the push token, so the server
no longer hands it a clone credential or publishes after the run.

Since the Petri cutover, a run with a GitHub target started in an empty
workspace, nothing pushed its run branch to GitHub, and nothing asked for
the automatic pull request when it succeeded.
Fabro's hooks now check a fresh run's GitHub target out inside the
sandbox when Petri hands them the scope, before the first stage: the
workspace fetches the selected commit, tag or branch at the run's clone
depth, with a read-only token the server resolves at each worker launch.
The worker scrubs the token from its environment at startup and presents
it only to the fetch, so it never lands in the repository or its remote.
The files belong to the sandbox user, so git accepts them.
The same checkout seeds the workspace's snapshot repository with the
starting commit. Checkpoint bundles from a shallow clone then import, a
stage's own commits never make a bundle carry the source's history, a
restore into a fresh sandbox fetches the base again and applies the run's
commits, and a fork carries the base with its checkpoints.
When a successful GitHub-target run ends, the server pushes its final
commit from the snapshot repository to fabro/run/<id> with its own write
credentials, then, when the run changed files and asks for one, records
the pull request request for the existing creation supervisor. A failed
push or request is a warning notice on the run. The manual pull request
endpoint shares the request step.

The legacy executor replayed a run from a checkpoint; Petri resumes a
run from its records instead, and the checkpoint timeline, rewind, fork
and retry were the operations that replay carried. The server dropped
their handlers with the executor; this removes the rest:
- the API spec's `/runs/{id}/retry`, `/rewind`, `/fork` and `/timeline`
paths with the `ForkRequest`, `ForkResponse`, `RewindRequest`,
`RewindResponse` and `TimelineEntryResponse` schemas, and the
generated TypeScript models;
- `fabro rewind` and `fabro fork` (with the checkpoint timeline printer
and the repo-origin check only they used), their reference pages and
the checkpoints guide's rewind and fork sections;
- `fabro-client`'s `rewind_run`, `fork_run` and `run_timeline`;
- the web app's Retry action on the run list and the run page.
`Run.retried_from` stays on the run type: a run that was retried before
the cutover would still name its source.

Resolve conflicts between the metadata-branch removal and the
sandbox-driver adoption on main:
- fabro-sandbox docker.rs, sandbox.rs, daytona/mod.rs: take main's driver
rewrite. The Sandbox trait is gone, so the PR's push_token_source
removal now applies to RunSandbox instead; drop that accessor and the
RepoCredentials::source helper that only served it.
- run_metadata.rs: keep deleted. Main's edits there were adaptations to
the driver API and the run git identity field.
- lifecycle/git.rs, finalize.rs: keep the PR's removal of metadata
snapshots and write_finalize_commit; carry main's RunSandbox,
GitRetryPolicy, git_identity, local_sandbox, and test catalog changes.
- sandbox_git.rs: take main's version and drop the shadow_sha parameter
and Fabro-Checkpoint trailer.
- git_integration.rs: remove meta_branch from the new git identity test.
- Cargo.toml: main's dependency set with fabro-dump kept as a
dev-dependency.
- checkpoints.mdx: keep both the git identity paragraph and the durable
execution state section.

A run now resolves a single author and committer identity once, after its
GitHub credentials are selected and before anything can commit, and uses it
for every commit it creates. Resolution order: a complete explicit
`run.git.author`; the run's GitHub App bot account
(`<slug>[bot] <id+slug[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>`); the authenticated
user of the run's PAT; the generic `Fabro <noreply@fabro.sh>`. A partial
explicit author overlays the fields it supplies. Only the selected
credential is consulted; a failed lookup is a setup error. A standalone
installation token falls back to the generic identity with a warning.
The resolved identity is carried on `RunOptions` and `EngineServices`,
recorded as a `git.identity.resolved` event and `RunProjection.git_identity`
so resume reuses it, and exposed through the run state API. Engine
checkpoints and metadata commits read it through `RunOptions::git_author`.
Every workflow execution path receives it as `GIT_AUTHOR_NAME`,
`GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL`, `GIT_COMMITTER_NAME`, and `GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL`, applied
last so it wins over inherited host variables and `[run.environment]`
entries: prepare steps, command stages, native agent shell tools, and ACP
launches. The identity is injected even without a Git origin, and the old
local `git config user.*` write is removed.
fabro-github gains `GET /user` and `/users/{slug}[bot]` lookups with mocked
tests for success, unauthorized, malformed, and transient cases. Real-Git
integration tests commit in the primary checkout, a clone, and a fresh
repository under conflicting local config, `[run.environment]`, and host
variables, and prove concurrent runs do not leak identities. CLI workflow
tests cover host script stages and ACP launch env through `fabro run`.
Docs and generated option metadata now describe the credential-derived
defaults instead of the stale `fabro`/`fabro@local` values.

## Summary
Removes Fabro's automatic retro generation stage so workflow runs go
directly from execution to finalization and optional PR creation. This
drops the retro-specific crate, events, projection fields, config/API
knobs, and user-facing docs in favor of the existing durable run
observability surfaces.
## What Changed
- Deleted the `fabro-retro` crate and the workflow `retro` pipeline
phase, with finalization now consuming `Executed` state directly.
- Removed retro configuration and API surface area, including
`--no-retro`, `[run.execution].retros`, manifest `no_retro`,
`features.retros`, and run projection `retro*` fields.
- Retired typed `retro.*` events while keeping historical event logs
readable by deserializing retired retro event names as `Unknown`.
- Stopped appending retro sections to generated PR bodies and updated
docs, marketing copy, screenshots, and navigation to point users toward
observability/event-stream inspection.
## Testing
Not run during PR creation; this branch already contained the
implementation commit.

Ensure local runs use the worktree checkpoint path by default, expose source and sandbox paths in API/web surfaces, and remove dead fork/rewind push controls. Update docs for clone-based sandboxes and durable checkpoint timelines.
Invert the docs convention so the Mintlify-published site lives under
docs/public/ and internal artifacts (strategy docs, brainstorms, plans,
etc.) sit at docs/ root or docs/internal/. Tools that default to writing
into docs/ now land in the catch-all instead of leaking into the
published tree.
- Move Mintlify content (administration/, agents/, api-reference/,
changelog/, core-concepts/, examples/, execution/, getting-started/,
human-tools/, integrations/, languages/, reference/, tutorials/,
workflows/, images/, logo/, docs.json, favicon.svg, dot-highlight.js)
into docs/public/.
- Collapse docs-internal/ into docs/internal/.
- Update Rust path references (fabro-api/build.rs, fabro-server,
fabro-dev), TypeScript generator arg, CI path filters, clippy.toml
reasons, AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md, and README.md image refs.
Mintlify dashboard project root must be updated to docs/public/ in a
follow-up. .mintignore move/trim and .claude/skills/ updates land in a
separate commit.
