Parse: agent_tools/tool_approvals column parsing unified into agent_def shared helpers (parse None = undeclared; server keeps None, worker maps to []/{} at _task_from_row, dispatch behaviour unchanged). Goal: _apply_resume_preamble goal branch proven reachable via _goal_convert_queued on a queued auto-resumed task, kept with a test and corrected docs (not dead code). Fail-open: audit write failure and preamble lookup failure now log warnings (best-effort unchanged); partial policy failure and shadow parse drops documented as known gaps. M7: shadow endpoint explicit_capability_failures_truncated test. Fingerprint: RoutingPolicy.content_fingerprint (canonical JSON sha256, version excluded) surfaced only in dry-run output, never in audit rows. M1 wording: legacy gap stated as fixed stock persisting per-task until completion, not converging.
- RoutingPolicy.fallback_models: move the cleaning loop into
__init__ (it was unreachable after tier_mode's return, so the
attribute never existed); still parsed but not applied.
- Capability fallback: RoutingDecision gains capability_fallback;
the worker audits worker_capability_fallback when it fires, so
a tier-model rejection followed by a worker-default fallback
is no longer invisible (source stays worker_default, no
model_routing event, so shadow samples are unaffected).
- Registry: resolve_registry_agent checks skills directly
against the loaded definition instead of re-parsing a
hand-built dict, so future fields cannot be silently dropped
the way tool_approvals was in v9.
- Shadow: evaluate_shadow sorts rows earliest-first by
created_at (id tiebreak) when timestamps are present, so
dedup no longer depends on caller row order; the server
path (which strips created_at) is unchanged.
- Gateway: when sub2api fills the default model, the worker
now checks it against the tier's capability requirements
with the same mode semantics as v8 -- shadow only audits,
active fails fast with worker_capability_gate_rejected and
never calls the runner. No worker-default fallback here:
the gateway model is the task's gateway model, falling back
to a worker default would run against the wrong gateway.
Agent definitions gain tool_approvals: known tool -> ask/auto/deny.
Unknown tool/policy is a 400, and required+deny is a 400
contradiction. The declaration is persisted (tasks.agent_tool_
approvals, PG + migrate), echoed in GET and the creation response
(via to_summary), and resolved for registry definitions -- fixing
a latent drop where resolve_registry_agent re-parsed without new
fields. At dispatch the worker audits the declaration and fails
fast on a defensive required+deny re-check (v3 tools-gate shape,
runner never called); goal/coordinator tasks reject the field at
creation like instructions. effective_tool_approvals maps a
declaration + host global approval to the actual host answer,
with ask_honoured always False: host answers elicitation with
one global switch and carries no tool identity, and the approvals
queue is record-only with no runtime ask channel, so per-tool
interception and credential scope are explicitly NOT claimed.
resolve_registry_agent in cloud/agent_def.py: agent_name may be
<name> or <name>@<version>, agent_version may also be given
separately; both given must agree or 400. Unpinned loads
<name>.json (default); pinned loads <name>.<version>.json and
requires the file's own version field to match, with no silent
fallback to the default file. Version strings are restricted
to alphanumerics/._- (no path separators, no ..); the
agents-dir traversal guard is a second line of defence.
Server: agent_version is only for agent_name (inline agent
with agent_version is 400); stored agent_name is the base
name, not the @ form. Snapshot fixture:
agents/research-brief.v1.json (same content as the default
v1 file). Tests: test_agent_version.py (7 tests).
Agent definitions gain tools (websearch/imagegen/playwright,
unknown tool is a 400), stored as agent_tools JSON and returned
by GET /tasks. This is deliberately required-tools, not an
allowlist: create_thread has no tool allowlist and tenant homes
are per-project shared, so blocking other tools cannot be
claimed. Instead the worker fails fast before any model call
when a declared tool has no [mcp_servers.<tool>] section in
the tenant codex-home config.toml (checked after _tenant_dirs
seeding, so a section seeded earlier by another worker counts
as present). The gate runs only for tenant-isolated Docker
workers; local/cloud workers skip it, documented, not verified.
Tests: test_agent_tools.py (8 tests).
Registry: POST /tasks accepts agent_name, loading <name>.json
from repo-root agents/ (traversal-guarded, skill-pack re-validated);
agent and agent_name together is a 400. Persistence: tasks gains
agent_name/agent_version/agent_instructions (migrate + PG schema),
returned by GET /tasks; stored prompt stays clean. Channel: local
and docker dispatch pass --developer-instructions to host.py
dispatch -> create_thread(developerInstructions=...); run/fork do
not re-send. Cloud executor has no such channel, so the worker
falls back to the v1 marked header in the in-memory dispatch
prompt only (DB prompt stays clean). Goal/coordinator tasks
still reject instructions.
Tests: test_agent_def_v2.py (7 tests) + updated v1 suite.
Agent definition is a versioned JSON document bundling the task
fields this codebase already honours (model/effort/approval/
executor/plan), plus instructions and required skills. At task
creation, explicit body fields win per field over the definition;
unresolved fields stay NULL and follow the worker-default chain
(and rule routing v0 when model is left empty).
Instructions reach the model only as a marked header prepended
to the stored prompt, because the dispatch path has no
developerInstructions channel; goal and coordinator tasks reject
instructions. Skills are validated against the cloud/skills pack
at parse time; seeding itself stays worker-global, documented
as the v1 boundary. Routing policy is not part of a definition
in v1 (worker-global), and unknown fields are rejected so typos
cannot be silently dropped. No new tasks-table column in v1;
definition identity is echoed in the creation response and via
the prompt header.
Tests: test_agent_def.py (11 tests).
