Context

After worktree start ticket-19, the worktree had .sdlc/pipeline.db -> <main>/.sdlc/pipeline.db but no .sdlc/project.yaml (it is gitignored in the main checkout). This breaks os-sdlc-runner, which cannot open the project without project.yaml in cwd.

Expected behavior

start links or copies project.yaml alongside pipeline.db (or os-sdlc-runner resolves project.yaml from the main checkout).

Workaround

copied project.yaml into the worktree by hand.

Mechanism: the worktree CLI does not link gitignored runtime files (here .sdlc/project.yaml). Related, not folded: #982 asks to link .venv and other gitignored files and to let a project declare extra link paths.

Resolution

Done: Superseded by #982, which states the defect more clearly

Evidence: #982 covers project.yaml plus other gitignored runtime files (.venv); #526 evidence and its resolve-from-main option were copied to #982

Follow-ups: none
