fix(notes): Shift+Enter in the capture box, not just in the note rows

The previous fix put AcceptsReturn on the rows in the DataTemplate and
missed the box you actually type new notes into, which still had it off
and only a KeyBinding for Enter — so Shift+Enter there did nothing.

Both now go through the same tunnel handler: Enter files the note,
Shift+Enter is left to the TextBox for the line break. The KeyBinding is
gone; with AcceptsReturn on it could never have fired anyway, because
TextBox consumes Enter in its own OnKeyDown before bindings or bubbling
handlers run.

Verified against the running app: a note typed with Shift+Enter is
stored as "fe\r\ndwa".

+# Empty-repo hardening — implementation plan

+Spec: `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-07-30-empty-repo-hardening-design.md`
+
+## Task 1 — GitService: HasHeadCommitAsync + EnsureHeadCommitAsync + friendly unborn error
+
+**Files:** `src/ClaudeDo.Data/Git/GitService.cs`,
+`tests/ClaudeDo.Worker.Tests/Runner/GitServiceBootstrapTests.cs` (new)
+
+1. Tests first (skip when git unavailable, mirroring `WorktreeManagerTests`):
+   - fresh `git init` repo (no commit): `HasHeadCommitAsync` false; after a commit true.
+   - `EnsureHeadCommitAsync` on empty repo → true; `RevParseHeadAsync` then succeeds;
+     `git ls-tree HEAD` empty; second call → false.
+   - staged file in empty repo survives bootstrap: still staged, not in the commit.
+   - corrupt HEAD (write a garbage SHA into `.git/HEAD` as a detached head):
+     `EnsureHeadCommitAsync` throws `InvalidOperationException` mentioning the dir.
+   - `RevParseHeadAsync` on empty repo: message says "has no commits yet" (no raw
+     "ambiguous argument").
+2. Implement: `HasHeadCommitAsync` (`rev-parse --verify --quiet HEAD`),
+   `EnsureHeadCommitAsync` (symbolic-ref guard → hash-object/commit-tree/update-ref
+   plumbing behind a static `SemaphoreSlim` with post-acquire re-check), unborn-HEAD
+   message in `RevParseHeadAsync`.
+3. Build Data + run new tests. Commit `fix(git): bootstrap empty repos with an initial commit`.
+
+## Task 2 — CommitAsync identity fallback
+
+**Files:** same two files.
+
+1. Test: repo with local `user.name`/`user.email` set to empty strings → `CommitAsync`
+   succeeds (retry path), commit exists.
+2. Implement: on identity-signature failure, retry once with
+   `-c user.name=ClaudeDo -c user.email=claudedo@local`.
+3. Commit `fix(git): fall back to a ClaudeDo identity when git has none`.
+
+## Task 3 — call sites
+
+**Files:** `src/ClaudeDo.Worker/Runner/WorktreeManager.cs`,
+`src/ClaudeDo.Worker/Planning/PlanningSessionManager.cs`,
+`tests/ClaudeDo.Worker.Tests/Runner/WorktreeManagerTests.cs`
+
+1. Test: `CreateAsync` on a commit-less repo succeeds; worktree on disk; DB row Active.
+2. Wire `EnsureHeadCommitAsync` into `WorktreeManager.CreateAsync` (log info on
+   bootstrap) and `PlanningSessionManager.StartAsync`.
+3. Full Worker.Tests run. Commit `fix(worktree): auto-bootstrap commit-less repos before creating worktrees`.
+
+## Task 4 — docs
+
+- `src/ClaudeDo.Data/CLAUDE.md`: GitService bullet gains bootstrap/identity-fallback.
+- `docs/open.md`: verification item — open a ConPTY session on a fresh `git init` repo
+  on a second PC.
+- Commit `docs: empty-repo hardening notes`.
+
+## Verification
+
+- `dotnet test tests/ClaudeDo.Worker.Tests -c Release` green.
+- Manual: task 61609f79… in "Test List" (`C:\Dev\TestRepo`, currently commit-less) —
+  opening the ConPTY session must now succeed and leave `C:\Dev\TestRepo` with exactly
+  one empty commit by ClaudeDo.

+# Empty-repo hardening (unborn HEAD) — design
+
+**Date:** 2026-07-30
+**Status:** approved (option "Auto-Bootstrap" chosen by Mika)
+
+## Problem
+
+`GetInteractiveLaunchSpec` (embedded ConPTY session) fails with a raw git error when the
+task's list points at a git repository that has **no commits yet** (fresh `git init`,
+unborn HEAD):
+
+```
+HubException: git rev-parse HEAD failed (exit 128): fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': unknown revision ...
+```
+
+Root cause chain: `InteractiveLaunchSpecService.BuildForTaskAsync` → `WorktreeManager.CreateAsync`
+→ `IsGitRepoAsync` (passes — `rev-parse --git-dir` works on an empty repo) →
+`ResolveBaseCommitAsync` → `RevParseHeadAsync` (fatals — HEAD is unborn). The same gap
+exists in `PlanningSessionManager.StartAsync` and hits autonomous runs (`TaskRunner` →
+`CreateAsync` → task `Failed` with the same cryptic message).
+
+This is a "works on my laptop" class of bug: on a fresh PC the first thing a user tries is
+a freshly init-ed test repo, which breaks instantly. A second member of the same class:
+a PC without `git config user.name/email` breaks every auto-commit
+("Please tell me who you are").
+
+## Decision
+
+**Auto-bootstrap:** when a worktree (task run / ConPTY / planning) needs a base commit and
+the repo has zero commits, ClaudeDo creates an empty initial commit automatically and
+proceeds. Nothing can be lost — the repo is empty. Genuinely broken states (HEAD not a
+symbolic ref and not resolvable) still produce a clear, actionable error instead of raw
+git stderr.
+
+## Design
+
+### 1. `GitService.HasHeadCommitAsync(dir)`
+
+`git rev-parse --verify --quiet HEAD` → exit 0 means HEAD resolves to a commit.
+
+### 2. `GitService.EnsureHeadCommitAsync(dir)` → `bool` (true = bootstrapped)
+
+- HEAD resolves → return `false` (no-op).
+- `git symbolic-ref -q HEAD` fails → repo is corrupt (detached HEAD onto a missing
+  commit, mangled `.git/HEAD`) → throw `InvalidOperationException` with a clear message
+  naming the directory. Auto-fixing a corrupt repo is out of scope by design.
+- Otherwise HEAD is an unborn branch → bootstrap **via plumbing only** (never touches the
+  user's index or working tree — staged/untracked files stay exactly as they were):
+  1. `git hash-object -w -t tree --stdin` with empty stdin → empty tree object.
+  2. `git -c user.name=ClaudeDo -c user.email=claudedo@local commit-tree <tree> -m
+     "chore: initialize repository (ClaudeDo)"` — inline identity so this works on a PC
+     with no git identity configured.
+  3. `git update-ref <unborn-branch-ref> <commit>`.
+- Serialized behind a process-wide gate with a re-check after acquiring, so two parallel
+  task starts on the same empty repo bootstrap exactly once.
+
+### 3. Defense-in-depth: friendly `RevParseHeadAsync` error
+
+When `rev-parse HEAD` fails with the unborn-HEAD signature ("ambiguous argument 'HEAD'"),
+throw "The repository at {dir} has no commits yet" instead of raw stderr — covers any
+future call site that forgets the preflight.
+
+### 4. Call sites
+
+- `WorktreeManager.CreateAsync` — after the `IsGitRepoAsync` guard, call
+  `EnsureHeadCommitAsync`; log when a bootstrap happened. Covers autonomous runs,
+  interactive ConPTY sessions, improvement/planning children.
+- `PlanningSessionManager.StartAsync` — same, before its own `RevParseHeadAsync`.
+
+### 5. Git identity fallback for auto-commits
+
+`GitService.CommitAsync`: if the commit fails with the missing/empty-identity signature,
+retry once with inline `-c user.name="ClaudeDo" -c user.email="claudedo@local"`.
+Happy path costs nothing (no preflight call); a fresh PC without git identity no longer
+fails every task auto-commit.
+
+## Out of scope
+
+- UI validation when configuring a list's WorkingDir (nice-to-have; the worktree paths now
+  either self-heal or produce clear errors).
+- Repairing corrupt repos.
+
+## Test plan (real git, Worker.Tests)
+
+- `HasHeadCommitAsync`: false on fresh `git init`, true after a commit.
+- `EnsureHeadCommitAsync` on an empty repo: returns true, `rev-parse HEAD` then works,
+  tree of the bootstrap commit is empty, second call returns false.
+- Staged-file preservation: file staged in empty repo → after bootstrap it is still
+  staged and NOT part of the bootstrap commit.
+- Corrupt HEAD (point `.git/HEAD` at a bogus ref? no — detach onto a garbage SHA by
+  writing `.git/HEAD` directly): clear error, no bootstrap.
+- `CommitAsync` identity fallback: local `user.name`/`user.email` set to empty strings
+  (forces the identity failure deterministically regardless of global config) → commit
+  succeeds via fallback, author is ClaudeDo.
+- `WorktreeManager.CreateAsync` on an empty repo: succeeds; worktree exists; base commit
+  = bootstrap commit.
+- `PlanningSessionManager.StartAsync` on an empty repo: succeeds (if existing test infra
+  makes this cheap; otherwise covered by the shared code path).
