Task 2 (_handle_reset_session reset) introduced a regression: setting self.active_project_path to empty caused an infinite re-switch loop in _do_project_switch because _flush_to_project writes to active_project_path (raises OSError on empty path), and the finally block re-submitted the failed switch on every iteration. Result: test_context_sim_live saw switching-to status for 5+ seconds and MD-only generation was blocked.
Fix: keep self.active_project_path as-is in _handle_reset_session. Only reset self.project (to a fresh default_project dict) and self.project_paths (to empty list). The stale project state issue is solved by replacing the project dict; the active_project_path stays valid for _flush_to_project.
- src/app_controller.py: refined _handle_reset_session project reset
- tests/test_handle_reset_session_clears_project.py: updated contract test to assert active_project_path is preserved
Stale project state from prior live_gui tests (shared session-scoped
subprocess) was leaking into subsequent tests, causing the
test_full_live_workflow race condition: 'Project not switched' errors
when self.project still claimed to be a different project.
The fix: _handle_reset_session now mirrors the default-project branch
of __init__ (lines 1743-1745), creating a fresh default project dict,
clearing active_project_path and project_paths, and reinitializing
the workspace manager.
- src/app_controller.py: 6 new lines in _handle_reset_session
- tests/test_handle_reset_session_clears_project.py: 3 tests
(active_project_path, project_paths, self.project)
