Single sampling rule; track 3 (#244) is authoritative for WHO is
mandatory, track 5 (#238) for HOW the rest are drawn:
- Mandatory (1.0): golden-task records + rebuild / refreeze /
escalation records + third-failure near-complete still-failed
cases (mandatory_triggers, full list per case). Track 3's old
deterministic every-10th ordinary rule is removed (it drew zero
from batches under 10 ordinary records and was predictable);
track 5's old narrow mandatory list is expanded with golden /
refreeze / escalate. blocked_quota stays non-mandatory.
- Random tiers: normal 0.10, critical-path 0.50, seed required
and recorded, ceil so a non-empty group is never rounded to
zero. 0.10/0.50 are TEST DEFAULTS, not approved production
values; production rates remain a user decision.
- One pass, no double counting: mandatory records leave the
random pools before drawing; a multi-trigger record (e.g.
golden + rebuild) is sampled once with all triggers listed,
and its correction follows the (original, corrected) verdict
pair, never the trigger list.
- cloud/audit_pushback.py::select_audit_sample is now only a
record-shaped adapter over cloud/audit_sampling.py::select_sample
(seed required, retired reason names critical_path-for-kinds
and periodic_sample removed); AUDIT_SAMPLE_EVERY_NTH deleted.
- Correction: original never mutated, correction appended,
corrector != signer enforced in audit_sampling when both names
are supplied; gate effect pinned (correction to pass never
unblocks by itself -- schedule/cancel-and-rerun, blocked until
a new passing re-audit; correction to fail re-blocks at once).
Track 3 / track 5 retrigger vocabularies documented as synonyms.
- Skill text (tightening 3 item 2 + correction paragraph)
rewritten to the unified rule; new test file pins the
boundaries (mandatory union, dedup, ceil incl. the 9-record
case, seed reproducibility, golden-set construction under both
sample vocabularies, adapter order/non-mutation, correction
preservation on both tracks).
Track 3 decisions (audit_pushback) now really block the server merge
endpoint and really land on the track 4 hash chain, via the new
cloud/audit_wiring.py translation layer:
- POST /tasks/{id}/merge ANDs the chain pushback block
(merge_blocked/release_blocked/blocked_by=audit_pushback/round/
failed_checks, replayed per module+contract version) with the
hard gate's five checks in every gate mode; either side blocks
-> 409, status unchanged, audit_pushback_blocked appended to
merge_gate.blocks. Ledger reads that fail (other than a missing
audit_ledger table) fail closed to 409.
- Every pushback/fix/re-audit/rebuild/escalation step is written
to the ledger with track 3 fields authoritative and track 4
storage authoritative; CONDITIONAL maps to fail at the boundary
with the original preserved, history never rewritten.
- Hard-gate 409 blocks codes feed pushback packages machine-first
(branch protection survives as its own extra check).
- Re-audit QA guard: a claimed pass with un-rerun or failed QA
links never reaches the chain.
- Track 4 compat: one audit_wiring_event action for escalation /
blocked-quota / audit-sample kinds, counted in the timeline.
- Resolved tension (documented in audit_wiring.py): a meta-review
correction to fail re-blocks at once, but a correction to pass
does NOT unblock by itself -- track 3 schedules a re-audit,
it does not release the gate; track 4 failure counts still use
effective verdicts, so the two views may disagree while a
re-audit is pending.
Tests: cloud/tests/test_audit_wiring.py (18 items), incl. a real
HTTP end-to-end chain (fail -> 409 -> fix -> re-audit pass ->
200) and a separate QA-link chain test.
Independent audit (no code, independent re-run, separate signature;
CONDITIONAL never passes; deviation needs due todo) and automatic
pushback (fail -> derived fix subtask, merge/release blocked,
package with per-item evidence, full re-audit, 3-round limit with
a separate CI auto-fix counter, ledger hash-chain interface for
track 4, gate-block interface for track 1). Over 3 failures per
module per contract version: rebuild only that module from the
frozen contract (old implementation archived, avoidance list),
contract/design root cause -> G2 re-freeze escalation instead.
Tightenings: 3rd-failure triage (structural early rebuild /
early refreeze, near-complete one targeted round), rebuild keeps
tests and passed assets with an old-test first gate, audit-of-
audit sampling/correction and G6 user-only acceptance plus
acceptance-rebuild user confirmation. QA full chain: self-test
three parts, PRD coverage, agent six, cross-client matrix with
honest uncompiled verdicts, G5 gates, impact-scoped regression,
dual QA/audit signatures, failed-link re-runs in re-audit.
Skill text is purely additive (+459/-0) against main v0.2 text;
port this section into v0.3/v0.4/v0.5 texts on merge, never
overwrite them with this file.
Integration arbitration, not a PR commit: v0.3/v0.4/v0.5 synced body
changes into appendix chapters 00/02/04/06/07 while templates/roles/
sources stayed at v0.2, so check_appendix failed 6 chapters; and
09-ops/10-iteration chapters (v0.5) were invisible to the strict
chapter regex because of the ', v0.5 new' title suffix, breaking
the #214 matrix-vs-appendix test. Direction is sources follow the
appendix (appendix is the tenant-visible authoritative version;
never overwrite v0.5 text with v0.2). 09/10 headers normalized to
strict form (suffix only); 09/10 sources split mechanically from
the appendix; EXPECTED_IDS extended to 11 chapters in the checker
and both appendix tests.
Core artifacts travel as an explicit manifest; coordinator triple-checks
(core report vs manifest vs recomputed hash) before cleanup, regression
rewrites files verbatim, recomputes sha256, stops on ARTIFACT-HASH-MISMATCH
and only then runs the same core code plus import-only regression tests.
SKILL.md header pointed at same-dir README.md but the pack had no
such file (CHANGELOG was supplied by #217, README was not). This
track adds the README only: purpose, chapter map, appendix
provenance entry point, seeding behaviour, and known boundaries.
It states no rule, changes no SKILL.md semantics, and does not
duplicate the CHANGELOG/script explanations -- overlapping parts
are pointers, with an explicit division-of-labour section.
Deletion retention is written only as the tombstone-design
placeholder, deferring to the skill_seed implementation, because
no tombstone implementation has landed. Test pins that every
file SKILL.md cites as same-directory exists (CHANGELOG, README).
SKILL.md claimed its appendix was spliced verbatim from
templates/roles/ by a generation script (see CHANGELOG), but the pack
contained none of the three. Add the nine role sources (mechanically
split from the v0.2 appendix; SKILL.md untouched, zero semantic
change), tools/check_appendix.py (verify + --emit, stdlib only, never
edits SKILL.md), CHANGELOG.md, and test_skill_appendix_provenance.py
(5 tests). Seeding unchanged: skill_seed copies SKILL.md only, so
templates/tools/CHANGELOG never reach the tenant home.
- cloud/merge_gate_hard.py (new): pure hard gate; mode resolution is
env-only (unset/invalid -> hard, fail-closed); five checks plus
branch protection must be protected; unknown/unprotected block
even with explicit confirm; no-evidence blocks (fail-closed);
directory check reuses #209 check_directory_isolation (v0.3 rule);
blocks codes + merge_gate_blocked audit detail are the track-3
pushback interface (no pushback state machine in this track).
- cloud/server.py: POST /tasks/{id}/merge uses hard mode by default;
record/enforce/off only when explicitly set via env (preserving
#209 semantics); body merge_gate_mode is ignored server-side so
callers cannot downgrade the gate; every gate block writes a
merge_gate_blocked audit before returning 409, status unchanged;
hard-mode body type errors return 400.
- docs/merge-gate-branch-protection.md (new): protection payload
(PR + strict status checks + no force-push + no deletion +
enforce_admins), empty required_checks = unconfigured, Pro/public
prerequisites, 403 causes; states protection is NOT claimed enabled.
- SKILL.md (gate-mechanism wording only): four checks -> five checks;
body + coordinator + client appendix gate paragraphs updated to
default hard, merge_gate_blocked audit, payload doc reference.
- tests: 31 new hard-gate tests (pure + endpoint + skill text);
#209 endpoint tests now set record env explicitly (their intent);
test_server_merge 200-path calls now carry full hard evidence.
- cloud/merge_gate.py: pure gate; directory check reuses the v0.3
git diff --name-only merge-base command; protection modes
record (default, explicit confirm required when unprotected),
enforce (always blocks when unprotected), off (explicit only).
Confirm covers protection risk only, never directory violations.
Protection status is caller/env-declared only; unknown is a
recorded risk, not a claim of protection.
- server POST /tasks/{id}/merge: applies the gate only when gate
evidence is supplied (or env declares protection); no-evidence
calls behave as before plus a merge_gate field in the response.
Blocked merges return 409 without changing status; confirmed
unprotected merges write a merge_gate_risk audit entry.
- skill_seed.py: whole-directory seeding evaluated and rejected
(cannot preserve tenant deletions; no benefit while the pack
holds only SKILL.md); SKILL.md-only behaviour unchanged.
- software-engineering SKILL.md: gate paragraph added to the body
and to the coordinator + client appendix sections (v0.2 text on
this base; port to v0.3 text on rebase after #199 merges).
- tests: 16 new tests covering gate modes, directory reuse,
body/appendix bidirectional assertions naming the missing side,
SKILL.md-only seeding and tenant-edit preservation.
Stacked on v0.3 + v0.4 (HEAD d6522ba feat-full-auto): v0.3/v0.4
content preserved, not reverted. Adds G7 post-release ops and
observation (monitoring, errors, cost/quota, feedback, hotfix loop,
rollback triggers, ops manual) and G8 iteration and scaling (v1.1
handover list, contract v1->v2 protocol, new-end onboarding,
scale/performance, deprecation), with G6->G7 and G7->G8 gates,
DAG, gate table, coordinator derivation, G0-G8 todos, checklist,
09-ops and 10-iteration role templates, and ops-manual / v1.1
handover templates in both body and appendix. Settles web+React+
multi-viewport focus, cross-viewport E2E, web single-end release
with iOS/Android native postposed, open-source-first, and the
TypeScript full-stack default (user-request-only language change;
codex-app-server itself stays Python). Pending #199 and #205
merge, then one rebase round. PR only, do not merge or deploy.
- P1-1 directory-isolation executable check: git diff --name-only
against merge-base, output recorded in merge record
- P1-2 derivation checklist table (8 required items, missing one blocks dispatch)
- P1-3 QA split into single-client review and cross-client E2E with
fixed deliverables and agent-test attribution
- P1-4 sub-task slim-pack trimming rules (listed chapters only, never full copies)
- P2: inter-thread Q&A default policy, docs/decisions.md append-only,
per-client onboarding docs (web first at G4a), v1.1 handover checklist
- Body and appendix kept in sync; new lightweight keyword test
- G0/G0.5: repo freeze items (new vs existing, owner/repo, default branch,
visibility); new-repo creation and first commit are G1 prerequisites.
- One branch per thread (feat/swe/<phase>-<role>-<short>), never push main
directly, never force-push main; sync main before PR, coordinator
resolves conflicts, never silently.
- Delivery requires a PR with scope, contract version, test evidence,
known issues and linked todos/PRD items; no PR number means not done.
- Merge gate: Checks green, directory ownership pass, frozen contract
version, coordinator approval, no unresolved review comments.
Branch protection (require PR, require Checks, block direct push) is a
GitHub repo setting; if unset, coordinator records it as risk and
enables it, never pretends it is protected. GET /tasks/{id}/pr/checks
is read-only diagnostics, never reruns or approves.
- Merge commit by default; merge record holds PR number, merge commit
hash, CI run link and executor; delete remote branch after merge.
- Per-client release tags (e.g. v0.1.0) from merged PRs; rollback is
revert or redeploy previous tag, never force-push rollback.
- Security: tokens/keys never in code, commits or command lines;
token only into subprocess env (cloud/pr.py GIT_TOKEN pattern);
.gitignore covers secrets and local config.
- Main text and appendix (coordinator, client, acceptance) updated in
sync; appendix travels inside SKILL.md for seeding.
Add cloud/skills/software-engineering/SKILL.md (686 lines, v0.2, appendix with 9 role templates travels inside SKILL.md because skill_seed only copies SKILL.md, not templates/). Update skill pack tests: EXPECTED set and real-pack list now include software-engineering, plus an explicit seed test asserting it lands at skills/software-engineering/SKILL.md, contains the appendix, and tenant edits are never overwritten. One-line wording tweak in the architect template avoids the existing secret-scan false positive on the substring sk- inside agent-task-contract.md; deployed file sha256 bd0436399ac05c6131b9281dad00973e50d13540e4c56ad21f21e2b5209bae8e (40759 bytes, 686 lines).
