Colin McDonnell 01e4daa0b5 checkout_pr: refuse unconditionally on dirty working tree (#808)
* checkout_pr: refuse unconditionally on dirty working tree

drop the live-HEAD comparison from the guard introduced in #796. any
checkout_pr call with staged or unstaged changes now throws, even when
HEAD is already on pr-N. no stashing, no idempotent escape hatch.

motivation is the zed-industries/cloud (2026-05-18) incident: shared-cwd
subagents make "carry edits along" semantics dangerous, and the
HEAD-equality predicate let a re-checkout silently inherit working-tree
state from a sibling agent. forcing commit/discard before any
PR-context operation eliminates the entire carry-forward failure class.

error names the PR number, lists dirty paths, and tells the agent to
commit/push/restore/clean before retrying.

* improve dirty-tree error: precise discard commands

copilot caught two sloppy bits in the error string:
- "push" alone does not clean a dirty tree (needs commit first)
- bare `git clean` is a no-op without `-fd`

reword to "commit (then push if needed), or discard with
`git restore --staged --worktree .` / `git clean -fd`" so the
guidance is actually actionable.

* checkout_pr: initial-branch invariant

setupGit captures `toolState.initialBranch` at run start via live
`git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD`. checkout_pr refuses unless current
HEAD matches the run-entry branch or the target `pr-N` (idempotent
same-PR re-checkout). uses live rev-parse, not toolState.issueNumber
(poisonable per the PR #796 review).

refusal error names the current branch, target PR, recovery path
(`git checkout <initialBranch>` with the literal branch name), and
explicitly states routing around via the `git` tool is not sanctioned.

closes the zed-industries/cloud (2026-05-18) shape where a subagent
parked HEAD on someone else's `pr-X` and the orchestrator's next
checkout_pr inherited that position.

* reviewfrog: enforce canonical diff + pre-commit halt; align Build dispatch

extend REVIEWER_SYSTEM_PROMPT with two prepended HARD CONSTRAINTS:
- first action MUST be `git diff origin/<base>` (single-rev, captures
  uncommitted). no other diff first; no checkout_pr; no alt-ref fetches;
  no branch listing; no `gh pr list`.
- empty canonical diff + claimed-changes dispatch ⇒ reply exactly with
  `no changes detected — likely pre-commit Build self-review;
  orchestrator should commit then re-dispatch` and stop. do not guess
  PR numbers (the zed thrash that ended in `checkout_pr({2582})`).

reshape Build mode reviewfrog dispatch step around a verbatim template
that names: (a) the situation is pre-commit, (b) canonical diff command,
(c) halt-on-empty-diff rule. orchestrator side now says the same thing
as the reviewer's baked-in prompt. delegation-discipline bullets and
orchestrator-evaluation guidance kept intact.

* checkout_pr: handle detached-HEAD entry in initial-branch invariant

pullfrog incremental review caught a defense-in-depth gap: `git
rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD` returns the sentinel string `"HEAD"` on
detached entry, which is the default `actions/checkout` state for
`pull_request` events. with the previous string-typed `initialBranch`,
both the captured value and the live probe would equal `"HEAD"` on
any detached state, trivially satisfying the invariant — including a
subagent doing `git checkout --detach <sha>`.

discriminate the captured HEAD: probe `git symbolic-ref --short HEAD`
first (works on named branches), fall back to `git rev-parse HEAD`
(SHA) on detached entry. store as
`{ kind: "branch"; name } | { kind: "detached"; sha }`. checkout_pr
runs the identical probe at call time and compares like-with-like
(branch name vs branch name, SHA vs SHA).

refusal error renders both heads via a small `describeHead` helper and
chooses the right `git checkout` recovery target (branch name or SHA).
no inline-discriminant `as` casts — uses a top-level `headsEqual` that
narrows via the discriminator.

Colin McDonnell 6c166ac1cc fix: prevent cross-PR push from subagent-induced branch switch (#796)
* fix: prevent cross-PR push from subagent-induced branch switch

A workflow_dispatch run for zed-industries/cloud (workflow run 26036155393)
force-pushed the orchestrator's work onto an unrelated engineer's PR branch
(origin/reactivate-pro-plan, PR #2582). The orchestrator's reviewfrog subagent
called checkout_pr({pull_number: 2582}), which (1) moved the shared working
tree to pr-2582 and (2) persisted pushDest pointing at reactivate-pro-plan.
The orchestrator's subsequent commit + push_branch then clobbered the victim
PR. Recovery + disclosure in PR #2584.

Three compounding bugs closed here:

1. checkout_pr dirty-tree guard had a first-call hole: the previous condition
   required ctx.toolState.issueNumber to already be set, so on workflow_dispatch
   runs the first checkout_pr (commonly from a subagent) bypassed the guard
   entirely. Now any PR switch with a dirty tree is refused, including the
   first switch of a run. Idempotent same-PR re-checkouts are still absorbed
   by alreadyOnBranch inside checkoutPrBranch.

2. push_branch trusted sticky pushDest blindly. Added a backstop: refuse
   pushes where the local branch matches /^pr-(\d+)$/ AND pushDest.remoteBranch
   differs from it AND the current run is not scoped to PR N (event.is_pr === true
   && event.issue_number === N). This catches subagent-induced silent branch
   switches even if a future bug reintroduces a first-call hole in fix #1.

3. Build-mode self-review prompt told the orchestrator to ship "the output of
   git diff" to the reviewer. The model in this run synthesized
   git diff main...HEAD, which excludes uncommitted work — and Build self-review
   runs BEFORE the commit, so the reviewer saw an empty diff and thrashed,
   eventually calling checkout_pr on a random PR to find something to look at.
   Prompt now specifies git diff origin/<base-branch> (two-dot, no HEAD),
   which compares the working tree against the remote base.

* review: key dirty-tree guard on current branch + drop 'two-dot' misnomer

Address review feedback on PR #796.

1. checkout_pr dirty-tree guard now keys off the live current branch
   (git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD), not ctx.toolState.issueNumber.
   issueNumber is ALSO set by get_issue / get_issue_comments /
   get_issue_events, so a subagent doing get_issue(N) followed by
   checkout_pr(N) on a dirty tree would have bypassed the original guard
   (issueNumber === pull_number). The current branch is the actual
   primitive for "would this call move HEAD" — querying it directly avoids
   correlating on toolState that other tools write to.

2. modes.ts: drop the wrong "two-dot" label on git diff origin/<base>.
   That's the single-rev form, not two-dot. Copilot was right that the
   label was confusing/contradictory with the actually-shown command.

David Blass 2f1f136da8 modes: actually call resolve_review_thread on addressed PR feedback (#749)
* modes: instruct IncrementalReview + AddressReviews to actually call resolve_review_thread

empirically (per #672 audit on 195 prod runs across 4 repos) only 1 in 195 runs
called resolve_review_thread. IncrementalReview's prompt only mentioned prior
reviews as a dedup filter — the agent had the data in hand but no instruction
to retire addressed threads, so it almost never did. AddressReviews mentioned
resolve as a one-line bullet at the end of step 6, which the agent treated as
optional (the one observed AddressReviews run replied to 3 comments and
resolved 0).

IncrementalReview step 4 now: fetch prior reviews → for each open Pf-originated
thread, decide if the new commits addressed it (anchor moved, isOutdated, or
substantive concern resolved on a re-read), reply + resolve when addressed,
leave open when uncertain. Conservative scope: only Pf-originated threads —
human-reviewer threads stay theirs to mediate.

AddressReviews step 6 now pairs reply + resolve in the same beat with explicit
rules: resolve when you made the change OR replied substantively; do NOT
resolve when you pushed back and the disagreement is unresolved.

addresses #672.

* anneal: tighten auto-resolve decision rules

correctness fixes from /anneal pass on IncrementalReview step 4 + AddressReviews step 6:

- `[OUTDATED]` no longer "strong signal of address" — it just means GitHub moved the anchor (line shift / reformat / force-push); agent must re-read code at new location
- explicit Pf-origin detection rule (first `comment author=pullfrog[bot]` tag), clarifies `*` marker is unrelated to thread root
- explicit dual-ID separation: numeric `id=` for `reply_to_review_comment.comment_id`, GraphQL `thread=` for `resolve_review_thread.thread_id` (was silently 422-ing)
- reformatter / partial-fix loophole closed: lines being modified isn't enough; all concerns in multi-concern comments must be addressed
- AddressReviews push-failure path explicit: STOP and report_progress, do NOT reply or resolve when fix isn't live
- step 4 → step 8 wiring rationale corrected (step 8 dedups by line range, not thread state)

Colin McDonnell 7e90e5cae6 Align Plan-mode prompts on report_progress as the canonical plan tool (#786)
* fix: align Plan-mode prompts on report_progress as the canonical plan tool

Fixes #673.

Three sites disagreed on where Plan output should be posted, letting a
model synthesize a broken third interpretation (initial post via
`report_progress({ target_plan_comment: true })`, which then misses the
`existingPlanCommentId` precondition). This PR aligns all three on
`report_progress` as canonical, with `target_plan_comment` reserved for
revisions only:

- `action/modes.ts` Plan step 4 — spell out that the initial plan post
  uses `report_progress` WITHOUT `target_plan_comment`, and that
  revisions go through `select_mode`'s PlanEdit override.
- `action/mcp/comment.ts` `target_plan_comment` flag description —
  make the "revisions only" precondition explicit and call out the
  initial-post path by name.
- `action/utils/instructions.ts` Progress reporting paragraph — drop
  the misleading "(e.g., Plan comments)" parenthetical that read as
  "use create_issue_comment for plans".

`PlanEdit` (in `action/mcp/selectMode.ts`) was already correct and is
unchanged.

Intentionally out of scope (to keep the fix minimal): a `publish_plan`
tool, removing the vestigial `create_issue_comment({ type: "Plan" })`
branch, hardening the run-end cleanup guard for the
`target_plan_comment but no existingPlanCommentId` fallthrough, and
renaming `target_plan_comment`.

Colin McDonnell 3514bbc39f review prompt: tighten body-section bar + inline technical-details (#770)
* review prompt: tighten body-section bar + add inline technical-details

Two layers of tightening to the Review/IncrementalReview prompts in
PR_SUMMARY_FORMAT (and the per-mode aggregate-&-draft step):

1. Reframe inline-vs-body split. Body `### ` sections are now reserved
   for concerns that genuinely have no line to anchor to — absence,
   sequencing, design decisions, scope questions, architectural risk.
   Drop the "cross-cutting concerns" framing (misled the agent into
   either filing nothing in the body or filing multi-file anchored
   findings there).

2. Add a "Hunt for non-anchored concerns" sub-step to both Review (step
   6) and IncrementalReview (step 8) aggregate phases. Diagnosis from
   PR #767's auto-review: on substantial PRs the agent surfaced
   findings but routed all of them inline, producing reviews with zero
   `### ` body sections even on diffs where non-anchored concerns
   clearly existed.

3. Replace the abstract `### ` example with a concrete non-anchored
   one ("Legacy `opencode.ts` has no documented deletion plan") so the
   agent pattern-matches the absence-shaped finding, not a line-bug.

4. Add an "Inline technical details" subsection to PR_SUMMARY_FORMAT
   so inline comments can carry a `<details>Technical details</details>`
   block when the fix has cross-file implications. Rename the existing
   "Agent details" inline collapsible to "Technical details" for
   consistency with body sections.

5. (Carried over from prior uncommitted work) Restructure the review
   metadata block from `<details>Review metadata</details>` into an
   HTML comment + an italic TL;DR commit-range line. The HTML comment
   keeps the metadata addressable for downstream agents without
   eating user-visible review real estate.

No tests touched.

Colin McDonnell ddbc610569 review prompt: friendly green callouts + per-section severity emojis (#756)
* review prompt: friendly green callouts + per-section severity emojis

- Replace `[!NOTE]` informational tier and the no-callout minor-suggestions
  tier with friendly green blockquotes (`> ` / `> 💡`). The two loud
  tiers (`[!CAUTION]` / `[!IMPORTANT]`) keep their GitHub admonitions.
- Add a per-`##`-section severity-emoji rule (🚨/⚠️/💡/ℹ️) for
  cross-cutting review concerns that don't anchor to a line and would
  otherwise be buried in summary content.
- Drop the `<br/>` between summary sections — heading + blank line
  carries enough visual spacing.
- Skip the post-run learnings-reflection turn for `IncrementalReview`.
  It's the lowest-novelty mode (delta review against existing PR with
  prior summary already loaded) and almost never produces durable
  learnings — reflection there costs ~$0.50-0.80/run for nothing.
- Surface real error info on `agent-browser` skill install failures
  (exit code + stdout + stderr + spawn error). The skills CLI uses a
  TUI that prints errors to stdout, so the prior stderr-only logging
  silently swallowed every failure.

* review prompt: per-bullet severity emoji + bullets-only sections

Section headings are plain again (no leading severity emoji). Severity
moves to individual bullets so a section that mixes a 🚨 and a 💡 isn't
mislabeled by either. Section bodies are now bullets only — paragraph
prose under a heading is harder to scan and tends to bury the
actionable point.

Bullets can carry indented continuation content (sub-bullets, code
fences, blockquotes) by indenting two spaces under the parent.

* review prompt: cap section length + identifier discipline

Bound each summary section to at most 4 bullets at most 2 lines each,
and explicitly call out identifier-heavy prose as an anti-pattern. The
reader is often a manager or non-author; identifier-dense paragraphs
('foo calls bar.fetch which dispatches to baz via qux...') are
unreadable for them. Default to plain-language behavior descriptions,
name an identifier only when it's the subject of an actionable concern
or a public surface a reader would recognize, target 2-3 backtick
tokens per bullet.

Move the deep-explanation pattern from open blockquote to a default-
collapsed details/summary so depth doesn't dominate the visible body.

* review prompt: hard cap on bullet identifier density + worked rewrite example

Soft 'aim for 2-3 tokens' guidance was ignored — first big-PR e2e
showed 12 of 19 actionable bullets exceeded the target (avg 4.8 tokens,
several over 8). Promote to a hard cap of 3 backticked tokens per
bullet and pair with a concrete bad/good rewrite the agent can pattern-
match against. Also tighten the per-bullet length cap from ~240 to
~200 chars and explicitly call it 'hard cap, not target'.

* review prompt: tighten bullet length cap to 160 chars, dramatize the worked example

V2 e2e test: token discipline improved (4.8 -> 3.3 avg, 12/19 -> 6/14
violations) but length got worse (235 -> 286 chars, 13/14 over the 200
cap). The agent compensated for fewer identifiers with more prose.

Two changes: (1) tighten the cap from ~200 chars to 160 chars / 1
visual line and call out wrap-to-multiple-lines as the failure mode;
(2) rewrite the worked example so the good version is genuinely half
the length of the bad one, not just lower token count. The example was
the thing the agent pattern-matches against; making the good version
~130 chars vs the bad version's ~290 chars sets the right shape.

* review prompt: drop fixed bullet-count cap, keep length + identifier caps

Per user feedback — section length should be governed by content, not
an arbitrary count. Soft guidance ('past ~6, ask whether to split') is
fine; the hard '≤ 4 bullets per section' rule was the wrong shape.
Length cap (160c) and identifier cap (3 backtick tokens) stay; those
target the actual scanability problem.

* review prompt: drop ## subsystem sections, flat 'Issues found' list

Per-section structure forced every concern into a subsystem frame and
made the body read like a series of mini-essays. Replace with two
parts: (1) TL;DR + Key changes as the dispassionate overview, (2) flat
'### Issues found' list ordered by severity, intermixed across files
and subsystems. Per-bullet rules (≤160c, ≤3 backtick tokens, severity
emoji prefix, optional indented continuation) carry over unchanged.

* review prompt: full v6 structure — preamble + cross-cutting H3s + nitpicks

Replaces the flat 'Issues found' bullet list with the iterated v6 shape:

- Preamble is a bolded inline 'Reviewed changes' lead-in plus bullets
  plus a collapsed 'Review metadata' block (mode/files/commits/refs/
  reviewed commits list/prior pullfrog review/staleness note).
- Each cross-cutting concern gets a '### emoji Title' section. The
  visible problem write-up is human-friendly and DESCRIBES THE PROBLEM
  ONLY — no asks, no suggested fixes, no 'the right thing to do is'.
- Each section carries a collapsed 'Technical details' block wrapped
  in a 4-backtick markdown fence (so it can hold its own 3-tick code
  fences cleanly, agent-readable, one-click copyable). Standard four
  inner sections: Affected sites, Required outcome, optional Suggested
  approach, optional Open questions for the human.
- '### ℹ️ Nitpicks' at the bottom for body-only nits that don't
  inline; simple bullets, no technical-details collapse.
- Anti-paragraph-wall rule: never two successive plain paragraphs in
  visible '### ' sections; alternate prose with structure.
- Inline-vs-body discipline: anything that anchors to a single line
  goes inline, body is for cross-cutting only.
- Drops legacy '### Key changes', '### Issues found', '<b>TL;DR</b>',
  and the '<sub>Summary</sub>' line.

* model effort: bump Gemini + GPT to high effort; drop Gemini Pro→Flash subagent

E2E review eval against a substantive billing-module diff surfaced two
related quality gaps:

1. Gemini Pro at thinkingLevel=medium (#663's CI-timeout fix) reviewed
   the diff only, took the 0-lens path, and missed a catastrophic
   camelCase/snake_case service-vs-schema mismatch. Bumping back to
   high — review work is exactly the wrong shape for the medium/high
   tradeoff #663 was optimizing for; the per-turn TTFT cost is worth
   paying when reasoning IS the value.

2. GPT had no reasoningEffort override, defaulting to upstream medium.
   Same diff, similar shallow result vs Claude. Adding reasoningEffort:
   high for the curated direct-OpenAI slugs, mirroring the Gemini
   pattern (Anthropic separately uses --effort high via the Claude
   Code CLI flag in claude.ts).

3. Gemini Pro's subagentModel was 'gemini-flash' — but Google has no
   in-between tier between Pro and Flash, and Flash is a meaningful
   capability cliff for review work. Dropping the override so subagents
   inherit Pro. Cost stays reasonable since Gemini Pro is already the
   cheapest of the flagship trio.

Other providers unchanged: Anthropic opus→sonnet and OpenAI gpt→gpt-5.4
remain (each is a one-tier drop to a still-capable sibling).

* model effort: revert orchestrator override, set explicit high on reviewfrog subagent

Reshape the effort design after eval:

- Drop the explicit Gemini and GPT model-level overrides — orchestrators
  now run at upstream defaults (Gemini high, GPT-5.x medium). Gemini's
  upstream IS high, so this is a no-op there; GPT goes back to upstream
  medium for orchestrator-level routing work.
- Add explicit 'high' on the reviewfrog subagent via agent.options.
  OpenCode merge order is base ← model.options ← agent.options ← variant
  per session/llm.ts:141, so the subagent always runs at high regardless
  of which orchestrator dispatched it. Both thinkingConfig.thinkingLevel
  (Gemini) and reasoningEffort (GPT) keys included; irrelevant keys are
  ignored per provider.
- Bump providers-live timeouts (12min job / 10min step, from 8/6) to
  budget for Gemini's TTFT variance at high effort. #663's 4min timeout
  was sized for the medium-effort override that's now removed.

* model effort: restore Gemini explicit high override (no-override path breaks)

Bare 'rely on upstream default' for Gemini failed in e2e — removing the
model-level provider config produced 'Function call is missing a
thought_signature' API errors on every gemini-pro run. Even though
upstream opencode's options() returns the same thinkingLevel: high we
were explicitly setting, opencode's resolution path differs subtly
between the two cases. v2's explicit override worked; v3's removal
broke. Reproducible across two consecutive runs.

Restoring the explicit Gemini override (back to v2 design). GPT
orchestrator stays UN-overridden — at upstream default (medium) — since
removing that override didn't trigger the same failure pattern and the
reviewfrog subagent agent.options high override compensates for the
extra depth GPT loses at medium.

* diag: remove reviewfrog agent.options to isolate Gemini thought_signature failure

v3 (no Gemini orch override) failed with thought_signature error. v4
(restored Gemini orch override at v2-equivalent) ALSO failed, even
though the orchestrator config matches v2. The variable between v2
(working) and v4 (failing) is the new reviewfrog agent.options block.
Removing it to confirm — if Gemini works again, the agent.options
addition is the culprit and we need a different shape for it.

* opencode-ai: bump 1.1.56 → 1.15.0 + clean up gemini effort config

opencode-ai@1.1.56 was published 2026-02-10 (3 months old). The Google
API tightened thought_signature validation 24-48h ago (per
https://discuss.ai.google.dev/t/gemini-thought-signature-patch/122555),
and the bug class hits opencode's session→prompt serializer for MCP
tool-call parts (anomalyco/opencode#4832, #8321). Latest stable bumps
us through ~3 months of fixes; needed for Gemini-direct to stop dying
with 'thought_signature is missing' on every multi-turn run.

Companion cleanup: the gemini provider override in opencode.ts had
30-line block of comments, four unused constants, and a 6-line
Object.fromEntries map for two entries. Replaced with one source-of-
truth helper that loops modelAliases, filters provider==='google',
strips the 'google/' prefix, and returns the override map. Adding any
future Google alias to the registry now flows through automatically.

Test added: action/agents/opencode.test.ts asserts the helper covers
every direct-Google alias, strips the prefix correctly, and pins every
entry to thinkingLevel high — catches drift in helper logic without
hardcoding the API ids the test would have to update in lockstep
with the registry.

* fix(workflow): tolerate listJobsForWorkflowRun 404 in resolveRun

PR #750 (docker testing rewrite) replaced the per-call env allowlist
with full process.env passthrough into the test container. That now
leaks GITHUB_RUN_ID + GITHUB_JOB into runs whose MCP token is scoped
to a DIFFERENT repo (e.g. providers-live smoke runs the action against
pullfrog/test-repo with pullfrog/app's run ID). The unconditional
listJobsForWorkflowRun call 404s and crashes the entire run, breaking
every providers-live job on main since #750 landed.

jobId is purely cosmetic (deep-links 'View workflow run' footer to a
specific job vs the run-level URL). Wrapping the API call in try/catch
so a 404 logs a debug message and falls through to undefined jobId is
the right fix — the failure mode is exactly what graceful degradation
is for, and the alternative (filter the env vars at the docker boundary)
re-introduces the kind of allowlist #750 was getting rid of.

* opencode-ai: pin 1.14.51 instead of 1.15.0 (effect refactor breaks JSON output)

opencode 1.15.0 (May 15) ships a major architectural refactor onto
@effect — the run command boots an in-process server via
@opencode-ai/sdk/v2 and the JSON event emission path through that SDK
client doesn't surface on stdout the way our parser expects (CI run
on 1.15.0 produced 0 stdout events but the agent still completed).
Local invocation also hangs at the in-process server boot.

The Gemini thought_signature fixes (the original reason for bumping)
landed earlier in the 1.14.x line, so 1.14.51 (May 14) gets us the
upstream fix without the Effect rewrite. Defer the 1.15.x bump until
we're ready to rewire our parser/spawn around the new SDK.

* opencode-ai: revert to 1.1.56; gha: filter outer-CI workflow-run vars at the docker boundary

Two related changes for the docker testing harness's ergonomics:

1. Revert opencode-ai 1.14.51 → 1.1.56. The 1.14+ line ships an Effect
   refactor (the SDK-v2 client + in-process server architecture) that
   our --format json parser doesn't speak — even the 1.14.51 release,
   pre-dating the 1.15.0 Effect rename, produced 0 stdout events on
   our skill-invoke smoke. There's no clean pre-Effect version that
   ships the Gemini thought_signature fix; that fix needs a separate
   workstream once we're ready to rewire the parser onto SDK v2.

2. Filter outer-CI workflow-run identifiers (GITHUB_RUN_ID, GITHUB_JOB,
   GITHUB_WORKFLOW, GITHUB_ACTION, GITHUB_REF, GITHUB_SHA, etc.) from
   gha.ts's --env-file passthrough. PR #750's full-process.env design
   leaks pullfrog/app's CI run identifiers into runs that act against
   a different repo (e.g. pullfrog/test-repo); any code path inside
   the action that uses them as keys (most notably resolveRun's
   listJobsForWorkflowRun lookup) 404s. Filtering them here means
   the action sees undefined and skips the lookup, complementing the
   defensive try/catch in resolveRun (commit addc76d4). GITHUB_REPOSITORY
   and GITHUB_TOKEN are NOT filtered — those are genuinely needed.

Companion to addc76d4 (resolveRun 404 tolerance). The two together
make this class of bug 'either fix would have caught it' rather than
'silently breaks the entire test matrix'.

* fix(deps): sync pnpm-lock.yaml with opencode-ai 1.1.56 manifest revert

CI's frozen-lockfile install was failing with 'lockfile: 1.14.51,
manifest: 1.1.56' mismatch.

Colin McDonnell 5caeb75344 review: 0-or-2+ lens rule, parallel-or-bust, downshifted subagent models (#710)
* review: 0-or-2+ lens rule, parallel-or-bust, downshifted subagent models

PR review wall-time was dominated by two failure modes: orchestrator
serial-dispatching subagents (despite prompt asking for parallel) and
running every lens on the same Opus tier as the orchestrator. Sample of
recent runs showed 25-60min reviews on small PRs, with 8-10min idle
gaps between subagent dispatches.

Three changes:

1. `action/modes.ts` — replace the soft "1 trivial / 2-3 typical /
   4-5 high-stakes" lens calibration with a binary 0-or-2+ rule. Default
   is 0 lenses (orchestrator handles review solo with optional cheap
   tracerfrog dispatches). 2+ parallel lenses only fire for substantive
   PRs (>5 files AND >200 lines) or high-stakes-subsystem touches. Never
   exactly one. Both Review and IncrementalReview prompts get loud
   ALL-CAPS framing on parallel dispatch — emit ALL Task tool_use blocks
   in a single assistant turn before reading any result. Drop the
   "do NOT lens-review the diff yourself" advice; orchestrator pulls
   context aggressively, in parallel with the lens fan-out.

2. New `tracerfrog` subagent for mechanical code tracing ("where is X
   used / who calls Y / what depends on Z"). Pure read+grep+report with
   no judgment — orchestrator can dispatch many tracers cheaply in
   parallel. Defined in `action/agents/reviewer.ts`. Wired into both
   claude.ts (`--agents` JSON) and opencode.ts (`agent` config block).

3. Per-subagent model downshifts via `deriveSubagentModels`:
   - Anthropic: reviewfrog → Sonnet, tracerfrog → Haiku
   - OpenAI: both → gpt-5.4-mini
   - other providers (xai, deepseek, gemini, etc.): inherit (no
     standard tier triplet to downshift to)

Claude Code path always runs Anthropic so the downshift is hardcoded
inline in claude.ts. OpenCode uses the helper since orchestrator
provider varies.

Both runtimes' subagent-definition formats verified directly against
their source: `--agents` JSON `model` field (claude-code's
`AgentJsonSchema` accepts model+effort+maxTurns+more) and OpenCode's
`agent.{name}.model` config field (parsed via Provider.parseModel,
applied per-task in tool/task.ts line 92). Parallel dispatch is
infra-supported in both — only the orchestrator model's tool_use
emission pattern was the bottleneck.

Tests: subagentModels.test.ts (14 tests covering provider matrix),
subagentRegistration.test.ts (6 source-asserts catching shape
regressions in buildAgentsJson / buildReviewerAgentConfig).

* subagentModels: add openrouter routes (proxy/router mode)

Initial helper missed the openrouter prefix used by Pullfrog's router
proxy. preview-710 e2e showed the OpenCode + openrouter path receiving
no downshift — orchestrator and lenses both ran on opus-4.7 because
'openrouter/anthropic/claude-opus-4.7' didn't match any of the
anthropic/openai prefixes the helper checked.

Add explicit branches for 'openrouter/anthropic/...' (uses dot notation:
claude-sonnet-4.6 / claude-haiku-4.5) and 'openrouter/openai/...'
(gpt-5.4-mini for both reviewer and tracer). Same opus->sonnet,
sonnet->keep-but-haiku-tracer, haiku->no-op semantics as the direct
anthropic path.

* opencode: log resolved subagent models at startup

So we can verify per-subagent model overrides actually take effect at
runtime. Prints once per run alongside the existing model/effort log
lines.

* drop tracerfrog: keep reviewfrog only, LSP-powered tracer planned later

Removes the cheap-haiku-tracer subagent (TRACER_AGENT_NAME +
TRACER_SYSTEM_PROMPT, registrations in claude.ts/opencode.ts, dispatch
guidance in modes.ts). The mechanical-tracing use case will be served
better by an LSP-powered tool than by a separately-prompted subagent.

deriveSubagentModels collapses to a single { reviewer } shape; the
reviewfrog-on-Sonnet downshift stays. Same source-assert + provider-
matrix tests, minus the tracer-specific cases.

modes.ts wording: drop the 'subagent type cheat sheet' bullet, drop
the parenthetical 'often better served by tracerfrog than reviewfrog'
on the impact lens, drop tracerfrog from the same-turn-context-pulling
hint. The 0-or-2+ rule and ALL-CAPS parallel emphasis are unchanged.

* subagentModels: broader downshift coverage (gpt-pro, gemini-pro, grok); drop gpt-mini target

Scanned every resolved orchestrator slug in action/models.ts against
models.dev pricing data. Identified five clear cases where the
orchestrator is meaningfully expensive AND has a cheaper sibling that
remains capable enough for review-style judgment work.

Changes:
- Anthropic: opus → sonnet  (kept; -40%)
- OpenAI: gpt → gpt-5.4 (was: gpt-mini; -54% instead of -85% but
  preserves review-quality judgment — gpt-mini was too dumb)
- OpenAI: gpt-pro → gpt   (NEW; -93%, biggest single unlock —
  gpt-5.5-pro is $30/Mtok in vs gpt-5.5 at $5)
- Google: gemini-pro → gemini-flash  (NEW; -75%)
- xAI: grok-4.3 → grok-4-1-fast  (NEW; -80%)

Every branch handles the three routes in use: direct provider slug,
opencode-vendored, and openrouter-proxied. Variants below the downshift
target (mini/nano/flash/fast/sonnet/haiku) inherit (no further drop).

Skipped:
- DeepSeek: v4-flash ($0.14/Mtok) is too far below review judgment
  threshold; v4-pro orchestrator already cheap ($0.55 blended).
- Moonshot: kimi-k2-thinking would only save 32% and slug stability on
  OpenRouter is uncertain; revisit if cost matters.
- o3: already mid-tier in OpenAI's reasoning family; no clean target.

* models: hoist subagent downshift into the registry, add hidden flag

The downshift relationship now lives next to each alias's resolve /
openRouterResolve as a sibling field. Two new ModelDef fields:

- subagentModel?: string — alias key (within same provider) of the
  cheaper sibling reviewfrog should use as a lens-fanout subagent.
  e.g. claude-opus → 'claude-sonnet'.
- hidden?: boolean — exclude from selectable lists (UI dropdown,
  CLI init picker). Does NOT affect resolution; for that use
  fallback. Used so internal-only subagent targets like openai/gpt-5.4
  exist in the registry but never appear as a user-facing pick.

Wiring:
- anthropic.claude-opus → claude-sonnet (-40%)
- openai.gpt-pro → gpt (-93%, biggest unlock)
- openai.gpt → gpt-5.4 (-54%); gpt-5.4 added with hidden:true
- google.gemini-pro → gemini-flash (-75%)
- mirrored across opencode + openrouter providers (each provider
  declares its own three-route data so the downshift declaration
  is colocated with the rest of the alias definition).

deriveSubagentModels collapses from ~85 lines of prefix-matching to
a ~15-line registry reverse-lookup: find the alias whose resolve OR
openRouterResolve matches the orchestrator's spec, follow its
subagentModel pointer, return the matching field of the target alias.

Filter sites updated:
- components/ModelSelector.tsx: !a.fallback && !a.hidden
- action/commands/init.ts:       same

Tests rewritten to exercise the registry through the public surface;
the matrix collapses to one assertion per (provider × route) pair.

* TEMP: log per-step cost+tokens for subagent model verification (PR #710)

* TEMP: also log SUBAGENT step_finish from bus envelope handler

* remove temporary per-step diagnostic logs (verification done)

Verified subagent model downshift takes effect end-to-end on the OpenCode
+ openrouter path. PR #8 in pullfrog/preview-710-review-perf dispatched
3 lenses (billing-subsystem / security / correctness) on the orchestrator's
opus-4.7 session, and per-subagent step_finish events showed actual cost
exactly matching Sonnet pricing rates (60% of what Opus would have cost):

  session       n  actual    if-Opus   if-Sonnet  match
  T3VrUuF...    5  $0.2425   $0.4042   $0.2425    Sonnet ✓
  93ZZR7E...    4  $0.2253   $0.3754   $0.2253    Sonnet ✓
  Fb1Kr7b...    4  $0.2495   $0.4158   $0.2495    Sonnet ✓

The startup '» subagent models: reviewfrog=...' line stays — useful
permanent diagnostic showing the resolved subagent model per-run.

* TEMP: log per-event model from claude.ts assistant handler

* remove temporary per-event model log (claude.ts verification done)

Verified subagent model downshift takes effect end-to-end on the Claude
Code path. PR #9 in pullfrog/preview-710-review-perf dispatched 2 lenses
on an opus-4-7 orchestrator. Per-assistant-event model field from the
SDK's stream-json output, partitioned by parent_tool_use_id:

  ORCH (parent_tool_use_id=null):  17 events all model=claude-opus-4-7
  SUBAGENT lens:billing-subsystem: 17 events all model=claude-sonnet-4-6
  SUBAGENT lens:security:          21 events all model=claude-sonnet-4-6

Zero leakage to opus from either subagent session. The per-subagent
'model' field in --agents JSON is honored by claude-code at the SDK
level, identical to the OpenCode path verified earlier.

* opencode: bump per-call output cap 5K → 16K to unblock large reviews

The 5K cap (added in #616 to lower OpenRouter upfront budget reservation
for low-wallet runs) was capping the entire response of a single LLM call,
not just the budget reservation. A single tool_use response — like a
`create_pull_request_review` with many inline comments — would truncate
mid-stream past 5K output tokens, leave the JSON unparseable, and the tool
would never actually invoke. We hit this on PR #710's verify-downshift PR:
review aggregated from 3 lenses had 11 inline comments + a long body,
truncated at out=5000 on every retry attempt, action exited with 'Review
mode finished without calling create_pull_request_review after 3 retry
attempts'.

Investigated whether OpenCode (or OpenAI/Anthropic/OpenRouter directly)
exposes a separate budget-reservation parameter that could stay small
while letting the response exceed it. They don't — `max_tokens` /
`max_completion_tokens` is the single value all four use for both the
upfront reservation and the hard output ceiling. No way to decouple them
at the API surface.

Bumped to 16K as a middle ground: 8× the prior cap (handles every review
shape we've observed plus headroom), still half of OpenCode's 32K default
so the wallet-burn benefit for low-balance accounts is preserved, just
smaller. For Opus 4.7 a typical ~50K-input call now reserves roughly
$0.65 instead of the prior $0.38.

Updated the constant comment to spell out the trade-off clearly so this
doesn't happen again.

* opencode: drop OPENCODE_EXPERIMENTAL_OUTPUT_TOKEN_MAX override entirely

Verified the original rationale for the override is obsolete. From #616
the cap shrunk OpenRouter's per-call upfront budget reservation so a
single call's reservation wouldn't exceed the per-run key cap
(`ROUTER_PER_RUN_LIMIT_USD = 25`) and lock low-balance accounts out of
starting a run.

That per-run gate is gone. `app/api/proxy-token/route.ts` ~line 422
explicitly says: 'No upper cap (the old ROUTER_PER_RUN_LIMIT_USD = 25 is
gone). The natural ceiling is whatever the user has + their buffer.'
Router now mints keys with `keyLimitCents = balance + buffer` ($50 for
autoreload+card, $5 for card-only, $0 for no-card). A single call's
upfront reservation fits comfortably within that — no separate per-call
gate to fail past.

The cap had a real downside as a hard per-call output truncation. A
single `create_pull_request_review` tool_use with many inline comments
would truncate mid-stream past 5K output tokens, the JSON would be
unparseable, and the tool never invoked. Hit on PR #710's
verify-downshift PR.

Removing the override entirely; OpenCode falls back to its 32K default.
Left an explanatory note above the env-var assignment site so the next
person doesn't unknowingly re-add it.

Colin McDonnell 4260984257 attribute claude subagent log lines + per-session thinking timer; tighten lens calibration (#700)
* attribute claude subagent log lines + per-session thinking timer; tighten lens calibration

three orthogonal fixes diagnosed from the 10m PR-699 review run:

1. wire SessionLabeler into the Claude Code harness. claude-agent-sdk
   stamps every Assistant/User/System message with session_id and a
   non-null parent_tool_use_id when emitted from a subagent context, so
   the same FIFO labeler the OpenCode harness uses works here too.
   parallel reviewfrog dispatches now log with [lens:correctness] /
   [lens:operational-readiness] / etc. prefixes instead of being
   indistinguishable from the orchestrator. matches both "Task" and
   "Agent" tool names per the v2.1.63 rename.

2. one ThinkingTimer per session. the global timer treated cross-session
   interleaving (parent thinks → child tool_call, child returns →
   parent dispatches next) as parent thinking time, so individual
   "thought for Xs" numbers were untrustworthy. each session now owns
   its own timer and prefixes its own log line.

3. tighten the Review/IncrementalReview lens-add discipline. PR-699
   triggered 4 lenses on a typical refactor (no auth/billing/schema)
   when the prompt's own calibration says 2-3 is typical; the
   research-validated lens went deep on Resend idempotency window +
   prisma updateMany lost-updates without either being load-bearing.
   adds an explicit "name the failure mode this lens would catch
   that the diff plausibly introduces" bar, and tightens
   research-validated specifically: only when correctness depends on
   the third-party contract, not when the API is merely used.

side benefits from #1: subagents' TodoWrite events no longer clobber
the orchestrator's progress comment; subagent text no longer overwrites
finalOutput; system-event handler safely routes through eventLabel even
though SDK only emits system:init for the top-level query today.

* fix node strip-only mode: declare formatLine as field, not parameter property

* key claude subagent labels by parent_tool_use_id, not session_id

claude-agent-sdk runs subagents inside the orchestrator's session — they
share session_id — and stamps subagent messages with parent_tool_use_id
pointing at the Agent tool_use that spawned them. e2e on PR-700 with
preview-700-claude-labeling#1 confirmed the original session_id-keyed
wiring never differentiated subagent activity (only the dispatch line
got [lens:correctness] in the log; the subagent's reads, writes, and
todos all rendered as orchestrator).

extend SessionLabeler so labelFor accepts an optional parent_tool_use_id
and short-circuits to a direct map keyed by Agent tool_use id when set.
recordTaskDispatch optionally takes the Agent tool_use id (block.id at
dispatch time) and binds it. orchestrator events keep flowing through
the sessionID/FIFO path unchanged so opencode wiring is untouched.

* drop weak timer test that asserted only field isolation

per pullfrog review on PR-700: the 'two timers do not bleed timestamps'
test only verified that two ThinkingTimer instances have separate
private fields, which has always been true. doesn't earn its keep —
the per-session behavior is exercised by integration through claude.ts
+ opencode.ts.

Colin McDonnell a4a5010441 gemini-3: default thinkingLevel to medium + restrict eager prep to frozen install (#663)
* gemini-3: default thinkingLevel to medium + don't `npm ci` without a lockfile

upstream opencode hardcodes `thinkingLevel: "high"` for every gemini-3 model on
the direct google SDK (see `packages/opencode/src/provider/transform.ts`
`options()`). that added 30-60s of pre-tool-call TTFT and 5-46s of post-tool
jabber per turn, which is overkill for the tool-routing decisions that dominate
agentic loops — and the variance caused the `providers-live (google/gemini-pro)`
smoke job to time out at 4 minutes (see job 75405504847 on run 25684766415).

three changes:

- inject `provider.google.models.<api-id>.options.thinkingConfig.thinkingLevel = "medium"`
  for the two curated gemini-3 slugs in `buildSecurityConfig`. deep-merges over
  the upstream default; explicit `--variant high` / user opencode config still
  wins. flash stays at medium too — low-effort flash is visibly worse and the
  latency win isn't meaningful (flash is already fast).
- bump the `providers-live` harness step from 4 → 6 minutes. the job-level
  8-minute cap stays as the upper bound, but gemini's intrinsic TTFT variance
  was eating most of the 4-minute slack on its own.
- in `installNodeDependencies`, pick `frozen` only when a lockfile was actually
  detected. previously a package.json-only repo (like the smoke fixture's
  `pullfrog/test-repo`) always triggered `npm ci` and emitted a noisy
  `EUSAGE` error before falling through.

* prep: skip eager install when neither lockfile nor `packageManager` field present

the previous commit changed the no-lockfile path from `npm ci` (always errored
`EUSAGE`, never wrote any artifact) to a successful `npm install`, which had
an unintended side effect: it generated `package-lock.json` in the working
tree, tripping the post-run dirty-tree gate. the agent then committed the
lockfile and opened a real PR — and in the openai/gpt smoke run on PR #663,
the agent overwrote the `SMOKE TEST PASSED` output with the PR URL, failing
the smoke validator.

a repo with `package.json` but no lockfile and no `packageManager` field has
not committed dependency state. eagerly installing produces state the repo
doesn't track, which is the dirty-tree problem above. skip the eager install
entirely in that case; the agent can opt in via `await_dependency_installation`
when it actually needs deps. repos with a lockfile or a `packageManager` field
keep the existing frozen-install behavior unchanged.

* post-run: suppress dirty-tree gate in non-committing modes (Review / IncrementalReview / Plan)

the dirty-tree post-run gate currently fires for every mode and tells the agent
to commit and push whatever is in the working tree. that's wrong for modes
that complete by submitting a review (`Review` / `IncrementalReview`) or
posting a Plan comment (`Plan`) — those modes never touch files as part of
their contract, so any tree dirt at end-of-run is incidental tool noise on an
ephemeral worktree. nudging the agent to commit it can produce a spurious PR,
as seen in the openai/gpt smoke run on PR #663 where a stray
`package-lock.json` from `npm install` led the agent to open
pullfrog/test-repo#32 and overwrite the smoke output.

introduce `NON_COMMITTING_MODES` in `action/modes.ts` and consult it in
`collectPostRunIssues`. when the selected mode is read-only, log the
suppression for visibility but skip populating `issues.dirtyTree`. modes that
legitimately commit (`Build`, `AddressReviews`, `Fix`, `ResolveConflicts`,
`Task`) keep the existing nudge.

* prep: restore eager frozen-install, drop non-frozen fallback

eager dependency prep is non-mutating by contract — it runs before the agent
starts and any artifact it leaves in the tree (e.g. a generated
`package-lock.json`) trips the dirty-tree post-run gate and can lead the agent
to open a spurious PR (seen on the openai/gpt smoke run earlier in this PR).

revert the previous skip-when-no-lockfile branch: that was the wrong layer to
enforce the invariant. instead, run `frozen` (`npm ci` / `pnpm install
--frozen-lockfile` / etc.) unconditionally and drop the `|| install` fallback
that could silently mutate the tree when `frozen` is missing. frozen commands
fail cleanly without writing artifacts when there's no lockfile, which is
exactly the safety contract we want. repos that need a real install must opt
in explicitly via a `setup` lifecycle hook.

* review nits: single getGitStatus call, tighten gemini-3 override scope comment

addresses two inline nits from the PR review:

- `collectPostRunIssues` was calling `getGitStatus()` (spawns `git status
  --porcelain`) in both branches of the mode check. lift the call above the
  conditional and branch on the result; same behavior, one git invocation.
- the JSDoc on `GEMINI_3_DIRECT_API_IDS` said the override applies "across
  the board," but the constant only covers the two curated slugs in
  `action/models.ts`. tighten the wording to call out that other gemini-3
  ids in models.dev keep the upstream "high" default.

skipped the bot's yarn-1 concern after reading yarn 1's `install.js`:
`bailout()` (lines 461-465) throws `frozenLockfileError` when
`frozenLockfile && (!lockfileClean || missingPatterns.length > 0)`, which
fires before `linker.init()` writes node_modules or runs lifecycle scripts.
the existing comment's claim that frozen commands fail without artifacts
holds for yarn 1 too.

Colin McDonnell cf94773bf0 modes: make task-list authoring the explicit first step in every mode checklist (#665)
* modes: make task-list authoring the explicit first step in every mode checklist

The system prompt already instructs the agent to author an internal task list
at the start of every run (action/utils/instructions.ts:291), but the rule
lives several hundred tokens above the agent's first decision point and
references the mode's checklist before the agent has it. Compliance is
roughly coin-flip across opus runs — PR #610 dead-air for 9m20s was the
extreme case; my own #664 e2e runs split 1-for-1 on `todowrite` compliance.

Putting the directive *inside* the checklist that `select_mode` returns
co-locates instruction with referent at the moment the agent decides what to
do next. Same vocabulary as the existing rule (`task list`, agent-agnostic;
the harness already maps to `todowrite`/`TodoWrite` per-agent in
agents/opencode.ts and agents/claude.ts). The directive is deliberately
non-prescriptive about list contents — the agent authors items based on the
work it's about to do, not from a hand-shaped template.

Touches all 8 built-in modes and the PlanEdit override:

- Build / AddressReviews / Review / IncrementalReview / Plan / Fix /
  ResolveConflicts / Task: inserts `1. **task list**: create your task list
  for this run as your first action.` and renumbers existing steps.
- action/mcp/selectMode.ts: same insertion in the PlanEdit override checklist.
- All internal step cross-references shifted +1 (`step 5` → `step 6`,
  `skip steps 3–4` → `skip steps 4–5`, etc.) across Review,
  IncrementalReview, and ResolveConflicts modes. One code-comment reference
  in IncrementalReview's preamble updated to match.

Complements #664 (live progress streaming): streaming guarantees the user
sees *something* regardless of compliance; this PR raises the ceiling on
what they see when the agent does comply (clean numbered checklist tracking
through the run instead of just the latest assistant message).

488 action tests pass; typecheck, lint, format all clean.

Colin McDonnell ef394277c1 review: synthesize [!NOTE] informational tier with #644 alert judiciousness — 4-callout visual ladder + approved Fix-gate (#653)
* review: NOTE-tier callout + `actionable` flag to suppress Fix buttons

Adds an `actionable` parameter to the `create_pull_request_review` tool
(defaults true) so the agent can opt out of the Fix-it/Fix-all/Fix-👍s
footer affordance on informational reviews. Threaded through
`createAndSubmitWithFooter` so the buttons are omitted when
`actionable: false`.

Updates `Review` and `IncrementalReview` mode prompts with a 4th tier:
`> [!NOTE]` + `actionable: false` for mergeable, FYI-style observations
(prior feedback addressed cleanly, minor stale doc reference, etc.).
Calibration note: `[!IMPORTANT]`/`[!CAUTION]` are reserved for findings
that warrant code changes, because that's what trains users to click
Fix. `[!NOTE]` reviews must not carry inline comments — if a point is
concrete enough to anchor to a line, upgrade the whole review tier.

* review: drop redundant `actionable` flag, key Fix buttons off `approved`

`approved` already encodes "this PR is mergeable, nothing for the Fix
button to act on" — `actionable` was a second flag carrying the same
signal. Drop it from the tool schema and `FooterOpts`; the footer gate
stays `if (!opts.approved)` (unchanged from pre-PR behavior, with a new
comment documenting the UX rationale).

NOTE-tier reviews now use `approved: true` + `> [!NOTE]` body instead of
`approved: false` + `actionable: false`. For repos with
`prApproveEnabled: false`, the runtime already downgrades APPROVE to
COMMENT, so the GitHub-side shape is identical to the prior design.

* review: address Pullfrog feedback — drop ambiguous parenthetical + update postRun nudge

- Review-mode calibration: drop the "(or no callout at all)" parenthetical
  that didn't map cleanly to a bullet; replace with explicit "both the
  `[!NOTE]` tier and the 'no actionable issues' tier below use approved:
  true" so the bullet-list anchor is obvious.
- `buildUnsubmittedReviewPrompt` (Review mode): the fallback nudge for
  unsubmitted reviews now defers to the mode prompt's tier matrix and
  acknowledges that `> [!NOTE]` informational reviews submit with
  `approved: true` alongside the canonical "No new issues found." path.
  Previously the nudge only described the pre-NOTE binary world.

David Blass ee479474ce action: tighten review alert judiciousness in prompts (#644)
The Review and IncrementalReview prompts unconditionally wrapped any
non-critical review body in `> [!IMPORTANT]`, even for trivial nits or
"rough edge" observations. The result is alert fatigue — full-width
colored callouts dominate the page when the actual finding is a single
JSDoc tweak.

Adds an explicit judiciousness preamble to both Review step 5 and
IncrementalReview step 7, and splits the prior single non-critical tier
into two:

- must-address non-critical (`[!IMPORTANT]`) — gated on real
  consequences if shipped (incorrect behavior, missing validation,
  regressions the author should fix before merge)
- minor suggestions only (no alert) — single-line nits, doc/comment
  polish, defer-able observations, "rough edges"

Critical tier wording also tightened to spell out the bar (`bugs,
security, data loss, broken core flows`).

David Blass 10aeaf8c11 action: dedupe identical reply_to_review_comment calls within a session (#623)
* action: dedupe identical reply_to_review_comment calls within a session

PR #610 reproduced a Kimi K2 stutter where the agent's tool_use surface
showed one `pullfrog_reply_to_review_comment` call but GitHub recorded
two byte-identical POSTs 3s apart, leaving a duplicate response on
`action/mcp/review.ts:14`.

Add `duplicateReplyDecision` (mirrors `duplicateReviewDecision`) and
track per-session replies on `ToolState.reviewReplies`, keyed by
parent `comment_id` + `bodyWithFooter`. Identical re-emissions short
circuit with `{ skipped: true, reason }` instead of POSTing again.
Body-keyed (not just id-keyed) so legitimate follow-up replies with
different content still go through.

Tighten `AddressReviews` step 5 to say *exactly once per comment* and
note that the runtime dedupes identical bodies, so the agent has both
prompt-level guidance and a server-side guarantee.

Colin McDonnell 85d25a6fe6 post-run gate: fail review-mode runs that don't submit a review or progress (#638)
* post-run gate: fail the run when review mode finishes without a review or progress

review-mode runs that ended in a text-only assistant turn ("now I have enough
to draft the review...") were silently swallowed: the progress comment was
deleted by stranded-comment cleanup and no review appeared on the PR. user-
visible result was identical to "the agent never ran." caught in
https://github.com/pullfrog/app/actions/runs/25583698781.

new post-run gate alongside stopHook / dirtyTree / summaryStale: derived
inline from toolState (selectedMode in {Review, IncrementalReview} && !review
&& !finalSummaryWritten && hadProgressComment) — no parallel toolState flag.
when it fires, the resume prompt nudges the agent to call either
create_pull_request_review or report_progress; persistent failure after
MAX_POST_RUN_RETRIES surfaces as AgentResult.error.

also: when the post-run loop returns success=false, write the error to the
progress comment before the stranded-comment cleanup runs, and skip the
delete in that case. previously a !success run from the loop would lose the
error message into the void.

IncrementalReview's trivial-skip branch now calls report_progress with a
brief "no review warranted" note instead of exiting silently — keeps the
contract symmetric with the gate and gives the user a visible signal even
on no-op review runs.

documents the literal-record design rule on the ToolState interface so
future fields don't drift back into derived/absence-encoding state.

* review feedback: mode-aware nudge, gate-error preservation, prompt order

addresses three findings from the auto-review on this PR:

1. Review mode nudge no longer offers `report_progress` as an exit. Review
   mode's contract (modes.ts step 5) forbids it; the gate previously sent
   contradictory copy. IncrementalReview's nudge still offers both since
   its trivial-skip path legitimately allows `report_progress`.

2. `writeJobSummary` is now wrapped in try/catch on the success-path
   cleanup. without this, a throw there jumped to the outer catch and
   overwrote the gate's failure message in the progress comment with the
   (less actionable) writeJobSummary error — restoring exactly the
   invisible-failure UX this PR fixes. step-summary writes are
   informational; let them fail silently.

3. `buildPostRunPrompt` reorders gates to match the terminal hard-fail
   order: `stopHook` → `unsubmittedReview` → `dirtyTree` → `summaryStale`.
   when both hard-fail gates co-fire (rare in review modes), the prompt's
   emphasis now matches the user-visible failure message.

new test asserts the IncrementalReview nudge offers both exits while the
Review nudge offers only `create_pull_request_review`. e2e validation
already passed against pullfrog/preview-638-review-stop-hook PR #1
(gate fired once; agent recovered on second turn).

* mode-aware terminal error copy

second auto-review caught a residual contradiction: the terminal hard-fail
error string reported "create_pull_request_review or report_progress" for
both modes, even though the new mode-aware nudge tells Review-mode agents
"Review mode does not have a no-submit exit". the error message now mirrors
the nudge — Review names only `create_pull_request_review`,
IncrementalReview lists both. additional Review-mode hard-fail test asserts
the absence of `report_progress` in the error.

Colin McDonnell d6de1c369a learnings: edit-in-place tmpfile (drop update_learnings tool) (#635)
* learnings: edit-in-place tmpfile (drop update_learnings tool)

learnings now follow the PR-summary file pattern: server seeds
`pullfrog-learnings.md` from `Repo.learnings` at startup, agent reads
it as part of context, may edit in place during the post-run reflection
turn, server reads back at end-of-run and PATCHes if changed.

motivation: `update_learnings` required the agent to pass the FULL
merged list as a string parameter — an output-token tax that grew
linearly with the learnings size, and a constant prompt-context
expansion since the contents were also inlined into the LEARNINGS
section. for repos with mature learnings the prompt was getting
visibly noisy in CI logs.

key changes:
- new `action/utils/learnings.ts` (seed/read helpers + 10k cap)
- `main.ts`: always seed; `persistLearnings` mirrors `persistSummary`
  (success path, error path, exit-signal handler, idempotent guard,
  byte-trim equality skip); forwards `model` for `LearningsRevision.model`
- `LEARNINGS` prompt section now contains only the file path + a
  one-line "read it" instruction (no contents inlined)
- `update_learnings` MCP tool deleted; `action/mcp/learnings.ts` removed
- reflection turn (`buildLearningsReflectionPrompt`) reframed around
  file editing with explicit prune-stale + leave-alone-if-nothing-new
  framing
- `learningsStep` removed from every mode checklist — surface lives only
  in the LEARNINGS prompt section + the reflection turn now

* learnings: harden seed step + refresh stale docs (review feedback)

Three findings from PR review, all implemented:

1. wrap learnings seed in best-effort try/catch (action/main.ts) —
   the always-on seed block ran unconditionally and an unwrapped
   `seedLearningsFile` (mkdir + writeFile) failure (ENOSPC, EACCES,
   hostile sandbox) would unwind into the outer main() catch and flip
   an otherwise-successful run to " Pullfrog failed" before the
   agent even started. asymmetric with `persistLearnings`'s own
   best-effort contract. wrap and log on failure; downstream
   consumers (`persistLearnings`, agent harnesses, `resolveInstructions`)
   already handle `learningsFilePath: undefined` cleanly.

2. refresh wiki/main.md — `resolveInstructions` parameter renamed
   from `learnings` to `learningsFilePath` in this PR; the data-flow
   diagram and the resolver dependency table both still showed the
   pre-refactor signature.

3. drop deleted `learnings.ts` from ROADMAP.md + RESEARCH.md
   "missing MCP tool tests" bullets — `action/mcp/learnings.ts` was
   removed in this PR; the bullets are otherwise still accurate.

Colin McDonnell e4e93ea6d3 PR summary as agent-edited tmpfile snapshot (#568)
* PR summary as agent-edited tmpfile snapshot

Replaces the comment-based PR summary path (and the in-progress
update_pr_summary tool from #534) with a snapshot file the agent edits in
place during Review / IncrementalReview / pr-summary Task runs.

The server seeds the tmpfile with the previous snapshot (incremental) or a
stable scaffold (first run), exposes the path via select_mode, and reads it
back at end-of-run to persist to WorkflowRun.summarySnapshot and (when the
prSummaryComment toggle is on) splice into the PR description body.

Why a tmpfile rather than a tool call: incremental snapshot edits are
output-token-cheap when the agent uses native file-editing tools, and
range-diff cleanly across runs because section headings are stable. The
agent never has to regurgitate the full snapshot to update it.

Gating: snapshot generation is opt-in via either prSummaryComment="enabled"
(splice into PR body) or prReReview="enabled" (snapshot feeds future
incremental review runs as context). Users who disable both pay nothing
end-to-end — no seeding, DB write, or body splice.

Behavior changes:
- Drop the Summarize mode and the Summary comment type entirely; the
  rolling summary is no longer a separate run shape.
- pull_request_synchronize with re-review off and summary on still
  dispatches a silent pr-summary Task, but it edits the snapshot file
  instead of posting a fresh comment.
- /api/repo/.../pr/.../summary-comment now returns
  { snapshot: string | null } from the DB instead of fetching a comment via
  GraphQL. URL kept stable so deployed older actions degrade gracefully.
- summaryCommentNodeId is retained on WorkflowRun for legacy data and a
  future backfill of pre-snapshot comment-based summaries.

Supersedes #534. The commit-tool/sub-agent direction in that PR is
abandoned in favor of this file-based shape.

* address review pass #1: synchronize fallback, splice idempotency, docs

* address review pass #2: in-flight skip should not race summary fallback

* address review pass #3: signal-handler flush, doc clarifications

* address review pass #4: in-flight persist promise + bounded body-splice timeout

* address review pass #5: defensive catch on persist worker, doc nit

* add summary-stale post-run gate

When generateSummary is set, we capture the bytes of the seeded snapshot
file and pass them to the agent's post-run loop alongside the file path.
After each agent attempt, the loop diffs the current file against the
seed; if they're byte-identical the agent never touched it, and we nudge
once via a resume turn (similar to the dirty-tree gate, but soft and
fire-once so smaller models that legitimately decide no edit is warranted
don't burn the retry budget).

Mostly defends against forgetful smaller models on the Review path —
their mode prompt asks them to edit the snapshot file, but the
multi-step instruction can fall through when the diff is large.

* trigger: retry vercel preview build

* fix(action): drop unused re-export that pulled node:fs/promises into next bundle

action/internal/index.ts was re-exporting DEFAULT_PR_SUMMARY_INSTRUCTIONS
from action/utils/prSummary.ts, but nothing in the next.js app imports
it. prSummary.ts uses node:fs/promises, and pullfrog/internal is aliased
into the next bundle by next.config.ts, which made turbopack try to
resolve node:fs/promises in client chunks and fail with:

  the chunking context (unknown) does not support external modules
  (request: node:fs/promises)

drop the re-export — selectMode.ts (the only real consumer) already
imports it directly from action/utils/prSummary.ts.

* firewall PR summary snapshot from user instructions; resurrect rich format for Review

The agent-internal snapshot (the markdown file the agent edits in place across
runs) is exclusively durable context for future agent runs — user-supplied
summarization instructions warp it and degrade that context. Drop the
prSummaryCommentInstructions read path end-to-end:

- handleWebhook: stop reading prSummaryCommentInstructions, stop passing
  prSummaryInstructions through dispatch options
- action payload + ToolState + selectMode addendum: drop the instructions
  appendix; the snapshot prompt is fixed, not user-shaped
- TriggersSettings: drop the InstructionsEditor for prSummaryCommentInstructions
- prSummary.ts: reframe DEFAULT_PR_SUMMARY_INSTRUCTIONS as agent-targeted
  (durable context, not human-facing prose)

Prisma columns (prSummaryComment, prSummaryCommentInstructions) and the
matching zod schema entry stay for graceful retreat.

Separately, resurrect PR_SUMMARY_FORMAT (deleted along with the Summarize mode
in the original PR) and wire it into Review mode only. Initial PR reviews now
include a structured summary section in the review body using the rich format
(TL;DR, key changes, ## sections with before/after, file-link trails).
IncrementalReview keeps its existing terser bullet-list shape since re-review
bodies are deltas, not introductions. The user-facing review summary and the
agent-internal snapshot are deliberately separate artifacts with separate
prompts and zero shared content.

* address review comments: prompt self-consistency + stale-doc cleanup

PR 568 self-review (4232488109) flagged a self-contradiction the firewall
commit introduced and three stale doc references that survived.

- action/modes.ts: Review-mode step 2's trivial-PR shortcut said `submit
  "Reviewed — no issues found." per step 5`, but step 5's rewrite removed
  exactly that preamble. Aligned both: trivial PRs and no-actionable-issues
  PRs now produce a body that opens with "No new issues found." followed by
  the PR summary, so the user gets the headline up front and still sees what
  was reviewed.
- docs/pr-reviews.mdx: dropped the "customize the summary style with Summary
  instructions in the console" sentence (the editor was removed in the
  firewall commit). Replaced with a note that the snapshot uses Pullfrog's
  built-in format and is not user-customizable.
- wiki/prompt.md, wiki/modes.md: rewrote the snapshot-prompt entries to
  reflect the firewall — DEFAULT_PR_SUMMARY_INSTRUCTIONS is the entire
  prompt, prSummaryCommentInstructions is no longer wired in.

* drop orphaned prSummaryCommentInstructions column

Prod audit (455 repos): 5 non-null rows on a single account, all containing the
literal placeholder text from the InstructionsEditor we removed in the firewall
commit. No account has an intentional preference set, so silent-ignore (the
keep-for-retreat option) costs us nothing meaningful while leaving an orphan
column in the schema. Drop it.

- prisma/schema.prisma: remove the column
- prisma/migrations/20260506000000_drop_pr_summary_comment_instructions:
  ALTER TABLE ... DROP COLUMN
- utils/schemas/triggers.ts: drop the matching zod entry

* drop body splicing; snapshot is internal-only

User-visible PR summarization continues to ship in Review and IncrementalReview
review bodies (which already render PR_SUMMARY_FORMAT and "Reviewed changes"
respectively). The snapshot tmpfile is now purely durable cross-run agent
context — seed, edit-in-place, save to DB, feed the next run. Massive
simplification: the body splice mechanics, the two-toggle gating matrix, the
summaryHandlingCovered race tracking, and the synchronize summary-only Task
fallback all go away.

Code:
- prSummary.ts: drop splice/strip/marker code (`splicePrSummary`,
  `stripExistingSummaryBlock`, `buildSummaryBlock`, `extractPrSummary`,
  PULLFROG_SUMMARY_START/END). keep scaffold, instructions, seed/read.
- main.ts: rename persistAndPostSummary -> persistSummary; collapse to a
  single DB PATCH. drop pulls.get/pulls.update, drop AbortSignal timeout,
  drop in-flight promise machinery, drop prSummaryToBody plumbing.
- ToolState: add summarySeed (replaces local var in main.ts so persist can
  compare). drop prSummaryToBody and summaryPersistInFlight.
- persistSummary now compares against the seed and skips the DB write
  with a warning when unchanged — saving the seed verbatim is either a
  no-op or persists the placeholder scaffold, neither useful.
- postRun.ts: when summary-stale is the only failing gate and the resume
  turn itself fails, restore the pre-resume successful result and break.
  symmetric with the existing reflection-failure preservation. summary-stale
  can no longer flip a successful run to failed.

Webhook:
- pull_request_opened: generateSummary follows prReReview only (the snapshot
  has no consumer when re-review is off).
- pull_request_synchronize: collapses to "if prReReview enabled, dispatch
  IncrementalReview". the summaryHandlingCovered flag, the same-SHA/in-flight
  coordination it was protecting, and the summary-only Task fallback all
  delete cleanly.

UI / config:
- drop SummarizePRsTrigger (the toggle gated body splice; with that gone
  it has no behavior). drop sidebar entry, console import, Text icon import.
- drop prSummaryComment from triggers zod schema, prisma schema, preview
  settings script.

Migration: squash the two existing migrations into one timestamped
20260507000000_pr_summary_snapshot covering all three column changes
(add summarySnapshot on workflow_runs, drop prSummaryCommentInstructions
and prSummaryComment on repos). repo convention is one migration per PR.

Action: bump 0.0.203 -> 0.0.205 (payload contract changed: prSummaryToBody
removed; main is at 0.0.204).

Out-of-diff cleanup:
- review.ts:190 + review.test.ts:651 — "Reviewed — no issues found." ->
  "No new issues found." to match the canonical body in modes.ts.

Verified: pnpm typecheck clean, pnpm lint clean, postRun + review tests
pass, dev DB reset against production and the squashed migration applied
cleanly (summarySnapshot present, prSummaryComment / prSummaryCommentInstructions
both gone).

* re-orient snapshot toward functional summary; drop prior-review-feedback section

Empirical audit on preview-568 PR #5 showed the snapshot IS load-bearing
for the orchestrator: lens-dispatch prompts on incremental runs carried
forward context from the snapshot's risk register (e.g. "the JSDoc
explicitly scopes to code points — do not flag grapheme-cluster issues"
on the surrogate-pair fix run, "consistency with native padStart" on the
padStart-added run). The orchestrator was reading the snapshot, reasoning
about it, and using it to anti-prime / focus subagents — exactly the
high-leverage path. My earlier "snapshot is write-only" claim was wrong.

The shape, however, was steering it toward review-history-log instead of
functional summary. This commit re-orients:

- prSummary.ts: replace the four-section scaffold (~580 chars of placeholder
  italics under "What this PR does / Key changes / Risk / Reviewed in prior
  runs") with a minimal seed (~150 chars: just a header + a one-line
  comment about what the file is for). different PRs warrant different
  organization; forcing a refactor and a feature into the same template
  is procrustean. minimal seed also makes the unchanged-from-seed gate
  in persistSummary more sensitive.

- selectMode.ts addendum: rewrite around three principles. (1) the snapshot
  is a FUNCTIONAL summary of what the PR does and the risks it carries,
  not a chronological review log — commit history can already be
  reconstructed from list_pull_request_reviews. (2) the orchestrator should
  USE the snapshot during triage and dispatch — concrete example given of
  carrying snapshot context into subagent lens prompts. (3) structure is
  the agent's call; stable headings make snapshots range-diff cleanly when
  they fit, but riff when they don't.

- modes.ts IncrementalReview: drop the "Prior review feedback" checklist
  from the user-facing review body (step 6b gone, step 7 ELSE IFs cleaned
  up). It duplicated content that's already covered by the Reviewed-changes
  bullets and tracked durably in the snapshot for the next agent run; in
  the user-facing body it was noise. step 3 still fetches prior reviews
  but its role is now just filtering aggregation in step 5, not rendering.

- AGENTS.md: codify "no follow-ups" rule. when an issue is identified
  during code review, fix it in this PR — PR scope does not constrain
  quality. follow-up TODOs are forbidden as a substitute for doing the
  work now.

Empirical evidence supporting the re-orientation:

- Run 25568912293 (PR#5 incr1, surrogate-pair fix): orchestrator's
  correctness lens dispatch said "Do NOT flag grapheme-cluster issues
  — the JSDoc scopes to code points." The grapheme-cluster framing was
  not in the diff; it was downstream of the snapshot's prior risk-section
  framing of truncate's contract. Snapshot influencing dispatch.

- Run 25569054779 (PR#5 incr2, padStart added): orchestrator's correctness
  lens dispatch enumerated edge cases including "consistency with native
  String.prototype.padStart contract" and "fill = multi-code-point string
  (e.g. emoji)". Both threads carried over from the snapshot's prior
  truncate code-point-vs-code-unit discussion. Snapshot informing the
  shape of what was looked for.

The cost of maintaining the snapshot (~800 tokens, ~$0.005/run) is
trivially affordable when it materially improves orchestrator triage
on the 1-5 lenses dispatched per review.

Colin McDonnell 3c8b493aee modes: soften "two-out-of-three" rule from veto to look-harder signal
The previous phrasing ("not enough — still degrades the codebase") read as a
categorical claim that elegance vetoes correctness, which inverts the usual
hierarchy and risks giving the agent a clean rationalization for rejecting
genuine correctness fixes. Reframe as a prompt to keep searching for a fix
that gets all three before accepting the trade — preserves the pressure
without the absolute.

David Blass b835d53d83 add /anneal + pullfrog-reviewer named subagent + Build self-review polish (#550)
* cherry-pick updated /anneal command from billing branch + add as Claude Code slash command

mirrors origin/billing:.cursor/commands/anneal.md (commit 4f389a8f) into
both .cursor/commands/ and .claude/commands/ so the parallel-lens annealing
prompt is available in both editors. content is identical between the two
files.

* anneal: drop REVIEW.md pointer, surface-agnostic dispatch wording, fix modes.ts self-review contradictions

Anneal pass over the /anneal slash command and the Build-mode self-review step:

- Drop REVIEW.md references in both anneal.md copies. The file does not
  exist on the Claude Code surface (only .cursor/commands/), and its
  contents (correctness/security/impact framing) directly contradict the
  prescribed single-lens, no-pre-shaping discipline.
- Replace "Task tool calls" with surface-agnostic "parallel subagent
  calls" so the meta-prompt does not couple to either CLI's tool naming.
- Hedge the "verify via web search" instruction to acknowledge subagents
  may not have web search available.
- modes.ts: drop "and the changed files" — the same step's don't-list
  forbids handing subagents a curated reading list (in-file contradiction).
- modes.ts: restore the "skim only, don't pre-review" warning that the
  long-form treats as load-bearing.
- modes.ts: drop "NO MCP tools" — overbroad; the actual safety property
  is captured by "no writes, no shell commands, no side effects".

* anneal: two-round self-anneal of /anneal + modes.ts self-review

Expand the multi-lens parallel-review protocol with fixes surfaced by
running /anneal on this branch twice. Material additions:

/anneal canonical (.claude/commands/anneal.md + .cursor mirror):
- promote orientation-vs-defect-hunting distinction to a load-bearing
  framing in the opening paragraphs
- add an empty-target early exit ("nothing to anneal" stop) at §1
- spell out the read-only constraint with the no-op-if-reverted test,
  and forbid recursive subagent dispatch (incl. agentic MCP tools)
- add cleanup-and-debt sub-categories (env vars, feature flags, dangling
  symbols), supply-chain, test-integrity lenses to the catalog
- §1 lens-count rule: explicit trivial/typical/high-risk tiers; "treat
  as typical" tiebreaker for the unsure case
- §2 example uses bare `git diff <primary-branch>` to capture
  uncommitted edits (three-dot syntax is committed-only)
- §5 targeted-follow-up cross-references the fresh-eyes carve-out in
  Delegation discipline
- final-message format spells out coverage shape, findings-table
  shape, dry-run fix-plan branch, and plan/doc summary branch
- stopping criteria distinguish "trivial" from "small / low-risk"

action/modes.ts Build mode step 4 (self-review one-pass anneal):
- empty-diff early exit; "step 4 mandatory whenever there is a diff"
  resolves the prior contradiction with the always-runs assertion
- lens count by risk (2-3 typical / 4 high-risk single-round-cap /
  exactly 1 trivial) with separate Tiebreaker
- expand swap-in lens menu (research-validated assumptions, security,
  user-journey, ops, integration, test integrity, supply chain,
  performance, holistic) so the catalog is a starting menu, not a
  closed set
- rename `cleanup & scope` to `diff hygiene` to avoid colliding with
  the canonical's broader `cleanup & debt`
- delegation discipline bulletized (don't lens-review yourself,
  don't summarize, don't curate, don't pre-shape, don't mention other
  lenses); independence rationale stated inline
- explicit research-discipline reminder for any lens that touches
  external contracts (web search, quote URLs)
- comment block enumerates deliberate omissions vs the canonical
  (dry-run, severity categorization, read-only shell) and the
  deliberate scope decision (sibling diff-producing modes stay solo)

action/modes.ts Review + IncrementalReview subagent-dispatch wording:
- propagate the no-recursive-dispatch rule (was missing)

* add set_plan/get_plan + restructure Review/IncrementalReview as parallel-subagent orchestrators

Build mode's self-review and Review/IncrementalReview now follow the multi-lens
parallel-subagent fan-out pattern from the canonical /anneal protocol. New
set_plan/get_plan MCP tools (orchestrator-only) persist the implementation plan
in tool state so the self-review's plan-adherence lens can verify the diff
against the original intent rather than reconstructing it post-hoc.

Subagent "read-only / no further dispatch" is currently enforced via prompt
prose only — neither claude-code's --disallowedTools nor opencode's per-agent
tools allowlist is configured to scope subagent MCP access. Documented as a
deferred ~30-50 LOC follow-up in the modes.ts header comment.

* revert Review/IncrementalReview mode prompts to main; keep Build self-review changes

E2e testing on this branch only exercised the trivial-1-lens path for Review (preview
repo had only docs PRs). Multi-lens Review fan-out was never directly validated against
a real code PR. Splitting the Review/IncrementalReview restructure to its own branch
(review-mode-orchestrator, draft PR #555) pending focused validation.

Keep on this branch:
- set_plan/get_plan MCP tools
- Build mode multi-lens self-review (Test 3 directly validated 2-subagent parallel
  fan-out on a 2-file diff)
- /anneal command updates (.claude/ and .cursor/ mirrors)

* require plan parameter when selecting Build mode

Adds an arktype .narrow on SelectModeParams that rejects select_mode({mode:"Build"})
unless a non-empty 'plan' string is also provided. When valid, the plan is stored
into ctx.toolState.plan at mode-selection time, so step 4's plan-adherence lens
always has a comparison target.

This closes the e2e finding that agents never reached for set_plan on their own
(5 of 6 runs in production). Build mode prompt updated to reflect that plan is
already populated at mode selection; set_plan remains as the mid-task replan
tool. Other modes are unaffected.

Validation surfaces the error to the agent with a descriptive message including
the path ('plan') and recovery instructions, so a failing call is recoverable
on the next turn rather than a hard fail.

* move Build-mode plan-required check from arktype .narrow to execute()

arktype .narrow predicates aren't JSON-Schema serializable — FastMCP's
toJsonSchema() emitted a {code: "predicate", predicate: Function} object
instead of a serialized schema. Effect: agents couldn't see select_mode
in their tool list (verified by 5 consecutive runs across two models
silently bypassing select_mode entirely after the prior commit).

Fix: keep the param schema clean (.narrow removed) and check
selectedMode.name === "Build" && !params.plan in the execute() body,
returning a structured error response. The agent now sees select_mode
normally, gets a clear actionable error if it forgets the plan, and can
recover on the next turn by retrying with the plan included.

* flip lens architecture: Build = single fresh-eyes subagent, Review/IncrementalReview = multi-lens

Build mode self-review previously fanned out 1-4 lenses on the agent's own diff. The
bias-mitigation argument for fan-out is weaker for self-review than for reviewing
someone else's PR — the orchestrator just wrote the code, so what matters is one
fresh-eyes subagent that doesn't share the implementation context, not breadth across
parallel angles. Build now dispatches exactly one subagent that gets the original
user request and the diff and evaluates whether the diff fulfills the request.

Review and IncrementalReview now use the multi-lens orchestrator pattern (triage →
parallel read-only fan-out → aggregate → draft comments → submit). For someone else's
PR, parallel lenses (correctness, security, research-validated, user-journey, etc.)
provide breadth that a single subagent can't carry coherently. Was previously parked
on the review-mode-orchestrator branch (PR #555).

Removes set_plan/get_plan MCP tools, ToolState.plan field, and the plan parameter on
select_mode. Validated end-to-end that those didn't cause agents to actually use plan
tracking (5 of 6 e2e runs skipped them); the original user request from the prompt
body is the source of truth and the orchestrator already has it.

Drops timeout test plan-param workaround that was added for the prior validation.

* split Review/IncrementalReview multi-lens back out to review-mode-orchestrator branch

The multi-lens orchestrator restructure for Review/IncrementalReview was bundled
into this branch in commit e964ae0c, but it hasn't been validated against a
real code-heavy PR (the e2e exercised it only on docs PRs). Splitting it back
out keeps this branch focused on the validated half — Build → single fresh-eyes
subagent — and lets the Review changes ship in a focused PR (#555 reopened).

* anneal: fix Build prompt contract bugs found by 3-lens review

Major fixes:
- checkout_pr returns the field as `base`, not `baseRef` (per checkout.ts:611-616).
  The prompt was telling agents to read `result.baseRef` which would be undefined.
- The base-ref fallback "after fetching" is unreachable via the `git` MCP tool
  (it blocks `fetch` per AUTH_REQUIRED_REDIRECT). Now names `git_fetch` explicitly.
- Boundary-tag wrapping for the user request had no escape rule for input that
  contains the literal close marker, and no fallback for an empty request. Both
  are now documented with a nonce-suffix mitigation.
- PR reference updated #555#557 (the active PR for the multi-lens
  review-mode-orchestrator branch; #555 was closed after the rebase).

Minor fixes:
- Retry predicate tightened: "errors out (tool error) or returns an empty body",
  not "returns nothing usable" (which is unfalsifiable and lets an orchestrator
  declare any output not-usable to skip review).
- Subagent read-only constraints rephrased as prescriptive ("MUST NOT call")
  rather than descriptive ("you have only"), since on inheriting runtimes the
  subagent does in fact have access to write tools and the constraint is
  prompt-only.

* anneal round 2: tighten Build prompt edge cases (workflow_dispatch, base-ref, footer-strip, skip marker)

Cross-lens findings from holistic + user-journey + research-validated lenses:

- workflow_dispatch + empty diff: report_progress silently no-ops when there's
  no parent issue/PR. Now also call set_output with a "no-op" summary so the
  user gets surfacable feedback.
- base-ref resolution: clarified `base` from checkout_pr is a bare ref name,
  added explicit `git remote show origin` path for repos whose primary is not
  `main` (master, trunk, etc.).
- bare `git diff` description: tightened from "shows working tree" to
  "shows unstaged working-tree changes" — bare diff misses staged changes too,
  not just committed ones.
- prompt-body stripping: explicitly call out the leading `> ` blockquote
  prefix (added by the *YOUR TASK* section formatting) and the entire Pullfrog
  footer block, not just one example link.
- boundary-tag nonce: always-on now, not conditional on detecting a close
  marker. Cost is one random short string; failure mode (prompt injection if
  input contains literal close marker) is silent.
- subagent-skip marker: structured `Self-review: SKIPPED (subagent error: ...)`
  on its own commit-message line, so the gap is greppable.

Header comment also documents:
- AddressReviews/Fix/Task asymmetry (deliberately deferred)
- Subagent-runtime-fence deferred fix must explicitly deny Skill / agentic
  MCP tools, not just destructive tools (claude-code blocks recursive Task
  spawn but not alternative dispatch paths).

* anneal round 3: targeted re-review of round-2 changes catches real regressions

Round 2's "fixes" introduced two real bugs that round 3's targeted correctness
re-review caught:

CRITICAL (fixed): tier-3 base-ref resolution used `git remote show origin`,
which requires network auth — the MCP `git` tool runs commands through plain
spawn() without auth, so this hangs on private repos. Replaced with
`git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD` (local symref, no network),
which actions/checkout populates.

MAJOR (fixed): the eventInstructions fallback was incoherent — the agent has
no separately-addressable eventInstructions field; whatever it received in
*YOUR TASK* is its only input. Removed the misleading reference.

MAJOR (fixed): per-line `> ` strip was ambiguous, could destructively flatten
user-pasted markdown blockquotes. Now: "strip exactly one leading `> ` per line".

MAJOR (fixed): tier-1 base-ref preferred bare `<base>` over `origin/<base>`,
which fails on the rare alreadyOnBranch path in checkout_pr where the local
ref isn't re-created. Now prefers `origin/<base>` (always populated post-fetch).

MINOR (fixed): footer-strip anchor was `<sup>`/`<picture>`, both of which
appear in legitimate user content (footnotes, etc.). Switched to the
PULLFROG_DIVIDER sentinel which is purpose-built for this.

MAJOR (acknowledged, partial fix): 4-hex nonce is theatrical security; bumped
to 8 hex and explicitly noted it's a typo-guard, not a security boundary,
and that the structural fix (separate task() argument) is the real solution.

REJECTED (verified false positive): subagent claimed `set_output` is not
registered for workflow_dispatch. Verified at action/utils/payload.ts:118 —
workflow_dispatch from `gh workflow run` resolves to trigger:"unknown",
which IS standalone, which IS registered with set_output. E2e logs from
prior tests confirm agents successfully call pullfrog_set_output on
workflow_dispatch runs.

* anneal round 4: drop broken symbolic-ref tier, simplify base-ref resolution

Round 3's tier-2 (`git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD`) is
empirically broken: actions/checkout doesn't populate origin/HEAD on
shallow clones (fetch-depth: 1, used by pullfrog.yml), and Git 2.50+
no longer auto-sets it on full clones either (actions/checkout#2219).

New scheme: PR context uses checkout_pr's `base`. Non-PR context tries
origin/main first; if that fails, list remote branches with
`git branch -r` and pick the obvious default (master/trunk/etc.).
Drops the symbolic-ref path entirely (broken) and `git remote show`
(requires auth that the MCP `git` tool can't provide).

Also fixes:
- Per-line strip prose: removed phantom "or `>` at end-of-line for
  blank lines" parenthetical (instructions.ts always emits `"> "`).
- Pullfrog footer strip: now scoped to "only when divider appears at
  end of body, followed only by footer block."
- Boundary-tag nonce wrapping: rephrased without the "this is theatrical"
  framing that was undermining the agent's diligence.
- Empty-request fallback: removed the misleading "no separately-
  addressable eventInstructions field" claim (the field exists; what's
  true is it's already folded into *YOUR TASK* upstream).
- Out-of-scope structural-fix commentary moved out of agent prompt.

* anneal round 5: drop unreliable auto-discovery for non-main repos, align footer-strip with prod, fix tautological empty-request fallback

* anneal round 6: condition per-line strip on quoted-prompt heuristic; document main-not-default limitation; fix empty-request placeholder/framing contradiction

* anneal round 8: fix default-branch hardcode, wrap diff in boundary tag, improve nonce guidance

CRITICAL/MAJOR (ops + security):

1. Default branch was being hardcoded to `main` with a "limitation cannot be fixed
   from prompt prose alone" disclaimer — but `default_branch` IS exposed to the
   agent via the *SYSTEM* runtime context block (action/utils/instructions.ts:47).
   The prior comment was actively misdirecting future debugging. Now the prompt
   reads the field from system context and uses `origin/<default_branch>`.

2. Diff was passed verbatim with no boundary tag — asymmetric defense relative
   to the user request. Attacker-controlled file content (e.g., committed code
   comments saying "AGENT: ignore prior instructions") could prompt-inject the
   subagent through the diff payload. Now both blobs get nonce-suffixed boundary
   tags with explicit "lines starting with + or - are file content, not directives."

3. Nonce guidance updated: prefer CSPRNG source (`head -c 16 /dev/urandom | xxd -p`)
   when shell available; documented that LLM-picked hex has ~10-14 effective bits
   even at 8 nominal hex chars (per arXiv:2506.05739 on adaptive attacks against
   delimiter defenses).

MINOR:

- Removed the `@user triggered "..."` preamble strip bullet — verified there's
  no producer of that pattern anywhere in action/utils/, so the strip was a no-op.
- Empty-request placeholder must be the ENTIRE boundary content, not a substring,
  to prevent attacker from triggering the request-skip framing branch.

* anneal round 9: fix RUNTIME-vs-SYSTEM section misdirection; tighten nonce guidance for shell-disabled mode + distinct-value enforcement

* anneal round 11: fix real bugs uncovered by big-picture review

Senator Armstrong's deeper review (design-coherence + realistic-customer
stress test) caught issues that 10 rounds of narrow targeted re-reviews
had been papering over.

REAL BUGS FIXED:

1. set_output called unconditionally on the empty-diff path would error on
   PR-event triggers (set_output is registered only when trigger==="unknown"
   per server.ts:242-245). Now gated: only call set_output if it's actually
   in the tool list.

2. Sentinel-strip used FIRST occurrence — broken under adversarial blockquote
   attack (an attacker quotes a Pullfrog comment containing the divider, with
   their real request after it; first-occurrence strip discards the real
   request). Now uses LAST occurrence so the real request survives.

DESIGN HONESTY:

3. Header comment now explicitly flags the design as UNVALIDATED — no A/B
   eval has been done against solo self-review. ROADMAP_RESEARCH.md flags
   benchmarking as the prerequisite. Header documents the validation gap
   and what would justify reverting.

4. Header comment elevates the runtime-fence gap from a TODO to a SECURITY
   GAP that must ship before the prompt protocol can be considered
   production-hardened. Ordering: runtime fence FIRST, prompt protocol
   SECOND.

SIMPLIFICATIONS (per senior-engineer review):

5. Dropped the second nonce on the diff — the diff is the artifact under
   review; suspicious instruction-shaped lines in commits are exactly what
   the subagent should flag, not something to fence off.
6. Dropped CSPRNG-vs-LLM-fallback branching prose — just "16+ hex chars,
   use /dev/urandom if shell available, otherwise pick."
7. Dropped the regenerate-if-collide rule (vanishingly unlikely with 16
   hex chars, costs tokens to enforce).

* anneal round 12: revert round-11 regressions (sentinel-strip, set_output gate, diff nonce)

Round 12's sharper review caught three regressions round 11 introduced:

1. Sentinel-strip last-occurrence was strictly worse than first-occurrence
   for the common "user references a prior Pullfrog comment" case. The
   adversarial-quote scenario it was defending against is contrived (an
   attacker can put hostile payload anywhere; strip discipline doesn't
   change attack surface). Reverted to first-occurrence to align with
   canonical stripExistingFooter() and avoid silently swallowing user
   reference context.

2. set_output "gate" via "if it's in your tool list" relied on tool
   introspection that LLMs cannot reliably perform. Replaced with: just
   call report_progress; document the workflow_dispatch limitation as
   acceptable (job log is feedback-of-last-resort) rather than asking the
   agent to conditional-call a tool that may not exist.

3. Diff was de-nonced in round 11 on the assumption runtime fence ships
   first, but until that runtime fence lands the plain label is forgeable
   (committed file content can include "--- END DIFF ---" + injection).
   Restored nonce wrapping. The cost is one extra hex string; the benefit
   is real until runtime fence ships.

Also added explicit caveat on the self-attested skip marker: the proper
fix is MCP-layer dispatch-counting, not commit-message annotation.

* ruthless cut: revert Build self-review elaboration to compact form

main already had subagent dispatch (4 compact lines). This branch added 70+ lines
of elaboration — header warnings, base-ref dance, footer-strip rules, nonce-
suffixed boundary tags, retry-once skip markers, delegation-discipline list — all
predicated on a runtime fence that doesn't exist and validation that never ran.
Senior-engineer review (round 11) explicitly recommended cutting; ROADMAP_RESEARCH
flags A/B benchmarking as the prerequisite for this design.

Net change vs main now matches what the user actually asked for:
  - drop the optional plan step (and its "follow the plan" / Notes references)
  - subagent receives the original user request alongside the diff, evaluated
    against base ref, with explicit no-further-dispatch constraint

Everything else reverts to main's prose. ~10 lines net change instead of 70+.

* anneal round 13: tighten self-review prompt inputs to runtime-resolvable values

Two underspecified inputs flagged by parallel holistic + mechanics review:

1. "the original user request" is empty for non-@pullfrog-tagged auto-triggers
   (sync, check_suite, opened, etc.); only YOUR TASK is reliably present in
   the assembled prompt across all event types. Replace.

2. "base ref (PR base or repo default branch)" requires the agent to resolve
   and fetch the default branch on non-PR runs (origin/<default> typically
   not fetched). Drop the elaboration — bare git diff captures all changes
   at step-3 time since step 2 doesn't commit. Aligns with 3ed2c55a's
   ruthless-cut philosophy: less elaboration, not more.

Verified in round 14: YOUR TASK is the literal section header in
instructions.ts (buildTaskSection); bare git diff scope is correct.

* restore plan step to Build mode prompt

The plan step was removed alongside the MCP-contract plan-required work,
but the user only wanted it gone from the MCP contract, not from the
prompt itself. Restores step 1 (plan), the "follow the plan" build
sub-bullet, the trailing Notes section, and renumbers learningsStep
back to 6.

* add pullfrog-reviewer named subagent; standardize review fence to non-mutative+non-recursive

Defines a constrained `pullfrog-reviewer` named subagent for the Build
mode self-review and /anneal lens dispatch, with a single source of
truth in action/agents/reviewer.ts (allowed tools, denied mutating MCP
tools, system prompt).

Enforcement:
- opencode: real fence via agent.pullfrog-reviewer block in
  buildSecurityConfig — denies edit/bash/task and globs each mutating
  pullfrog_* MCP tool to false.
- claude-code: forward-looking only. Per-agent disallowedTools is
  upstream-broken (anthropics/claude-agent-sdk-typescript#172, open as
  of latest update Mar 2026 — subagent child processes still see and
  can call disallowed tools, including Task). The --agents JSON is
  defined anyway so the fence becomes real when upstream fixes #172;
  until then the prompt prose constraint is the actual fence. The
  PreToolUse hook workaround that does enforce is out of scope.

Read-only MCP tools (get_*, list_*) intentionally remain enabled so
the reviewer can pull PR/issue/check context without dispatching
state changes.

Both modes.ts Build self-review and the two anneal.md files now share
the same "non-mutative + non-recursive" framing — file reads, grep,
search, web search/fetch, read-only shell, and read-only MCP queries
allowed; writes, state-changing MCP, and nested subagent dispatch
denied. Resolves the previous inconsistency where /anneal allowed
read-only shell and Build self-review banned all shell.

Made-with: Cursor

* Build self-review: pass build-phase failure summary to reviewer subagent

Adds an instruction in step 4's dispatch: along with YOUR TASK and
git diff, pass a tight plain-text summary of any lint/typecheck/test
failures fixed during build (what broke, root cause, the fix) — or
"no build-phase failures" if clean. Goal: let the reviewer check
that fixes addressed root causes rather than suppressed symptoms
(e.g., editing a test to make it pass instead of fixing the bug).

Implemented as agent self-summarization rather than piping raw build
output to avoid context flooding — typecheck/test output can be
hundreds to thousands of lines per failure. The agent has the
failure trail in its own conversation history and summarizes from
memory; the reviewer sees a few lines per failure, not raw stderr.

Caveat: this is a plausible-but-unvalidated quality improvement.
The mechanical justification (signal already produced, currently
not passed on) is real; "this catches more bugs" is a hypothesis
that will need actual run data to confirm. Downside is bounded
(reviewer gets slightly more context, no behavior change if the
summary is empty or ignored).

Made-with: Cursor

* Build self-review: distill /anneal delegation + research discipline into dispatch instructions

Lifts the codified learnings from /anneal's "Delegation discipline" and
"Research discipline" sections into Build mode step 4. These rules are
about how-to-prompt the reviewer (not about parallelism), so they
transfer losslessly to single-agent dispatch and address bias modes the
prior prompt was silent on:

- Don't summarize what you implemented (biases toward shape-validation)
- Don't curate a reading list (your curation is itself a lens)
- Don't pre-shape output with severity/category (leaks hypotheses)
- Don't defect-hunt in parallel (reintroduces the implementation bias
  the subagent is meant to mitigate)
- For diffs touching third-party API contracts / SDK semantics /
  framework directives / DB engine specifics, instruct the reviewer to
  verify load-bearing claims via web search and quote URLs rather than
  trust training data

Restructures step 4 from one paragraph into three (constraints, inputs,
discipline) plus a final review-and-commit paragraph for readability.

These are validated learnings from many anneal rounds, not theoretical
best practices — they're the single substantive piece this branch was
missing.

Made-with: Cursor

* pullfrog-reviewer: drop MCP deny-list, rely on prose constraint

Per-PR-review feedback: hand-maintaining MUTATING_MCP_TOOLS against
action/mcp/server.ts was fragile — a future mutating tool added to the
MCP server without updating this list would silently grant write access
to the reviewer. Inverting to an allowlist or adding a structural test
both keep the drift problem.

Drop the list and all per-agent runtime denies (claude disallowedTools,
opencode tools/permission map). Strengthen REVIEWER_SYSTEM_PROMPT to
spell out the categories of state-changing MCP tools by example and
explicitly tell the model to apply the no-op-if-reverted invariant to
tools added after the prompt was written — the rule is the invariant,
not the enumeration. Keep the named subagent so the prompt is reliably
injected. Update modes.ts and both anneal.md copies to drop the
runtime-enforces-where-supported claim.

* pullfrog-reviewer: fix description to allow read-only shell

The description field was overstating the constraint as 'must not shell',
but the system prompt explicitly allows read-only commands like git diff,
git log, cat, ls. Align description with the actual contract.

* restructure Review/IncrementalReview as multi-lens parallel-subagent orchestrators

For someone else's PR, parallel lenses (correctness, security, research-validated
claims, user-journey, etc.) provide breadth across angles that a single subagent
can't carry coherently. The orchestrator does triage → parallel read-only subagent
fan-out → aggregate → draft comments → submit. Lens count by risk: 1 lens for
trivial PRs, 2-3 for typical, 4 for high-risk surfaces (billing, auth, migrations).

This branch contains ONLY the Review/IncrementalReview multi-lens prompts.
Build mode keeps its single-fresh-eyes-subagent shape (different problem —
orchestrator just wrote the code; bias-mitigation comes from one subagent that
doesn't share the implementation context). The Build changes ship in a separate
PR (self-review-subagents → main).

Pending validation against a real code-heavy PR before merge — e2e on a docs-only
preview repo only exercised the trivial-1-lens path.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Review/IncrementalReview: dispatch fan-out via reviewfrog named subagent

The fan-out steps previously said "launch one read-only subagent per lens" without naming the
subagent. That bypassed the only enforcement layer the named subagent provides: a baked-in
system prompt that restates the non-mutative + non-recursive contract regardless of what the
orchestrator sends. Both modes now dispatch via REVIEWER_AGENT_NAME (matching Build mode's
self-review wiring) and restate the constraint inline so the rule is present twice.

* rename pullfrog-reviewer → reviewfrog

Mechanical rename of the named subagent. Constant names (REVIEWER_AGENT_NAME, REVIEWER_SYSTEM_PROMPT)
and file paths (action/agents/reviewer.ts) stay as-is — only the agent identifier string and prose
references in anneal.md and code comments change.

* modes/anneal: trivial PRs skip review entirely; lens count is judgment, not table; allow subsystem lenses

Three coupled changes to Review/IncrementalReview/Build self-review and the canonical /anneal
command:

1. Trivial-skip: trivial diffs (single-line, formatting/comment-only, doc typo, low-risk dep
   bump, no behavior change) skip the fan-out / self-review entirely. Build mode skips its
   self-review subagent; Review submits a bare "Reviewed — no issues found." without
   dispatching lenses; IncrementalReview takes the existing non-substantive submit path.
   Tiebreaker on uncertainty: treat as non-trivial.

2. Drop prescriptive lens counts. Replaces "2-3 typical / 4 high-risk cap / 1 trivial" with
   judgment-based guidance: pick as many lenses as the target has distinct surfaces of risk
   worth investigating independently; one is sometimes enough; bias toward more (and toward
   follow-up rounds in /anneal) for high-stakes subsystems; 5+ is a smell that lenses are
   overlapping rather than covering distinct ground.

3. Subsystem lenses. Adds an explicit second flavor of lens — domain-scoped frames like
   "the auth lens", "the billing lens", "the schema-migration lens" — alongside the existing
   themed lenses (correctness, security, user-journey, etc.). Stack themed + subsystem freely.

modes.ts and anneal.md (.cursor/ + .claude/, kept byte-identical) move together so the
canonical pattern doc and the orchestrator prompt agree on the protocol.

* add SessionLabeler so parallel subagent log lines are differentiable

When the orchestrator dispatches multiple `reviewfrog` subagents in a single
assistant turn (the parallel fan-out the multi-lens prompt now requires),
their tool_use / tool_result / text events arrive on opencode's NDJSON
stream tagged with distinct `sessionID`s but go through a single
`[Pullfrog]` log prefix. Result: log readers can't attribute which lens
issued which tool call, making CI logs unreadable for any review with 2+
lenses.

SessionLabeler:
- Binds the first-seen sessionID to "orchestrator" and subsequent new
  sessionIDs to FIFO-popped lens labels seeded from task tool_use inputs.
- Derives labels from `lens: <name>` markers in the dispatch prompt, the
  Task `description` field, the `subagent_type`, or `subagent#N` fallback.
- Keeps state local to a single runOpenCode invocation.

Wiring:
- opencode.ts: every event handler (init, message, text, tool_use,
  tool_result) now looks up the per-event label and prefixes log output
  via formatWithLabel(). Subagent finalOutput/token-reset paths gated on
  ORCHESTRATOR_LABEL so child sessions can't clobber parent state.
- claude.ts: claude rolls subagent activity into a single tool_result
  block (no per-event session_id), so it gets a minimal "» dispatching
  subagent: <label>" log line on Task tool_use as the only attribution.
- modes.ts (Review + IncrementalReview): orchestrator instructed to set
  the Task `description` to the lens name, since that's what the labeler
  reads when no explicit `lens:` marker is in the prompt.

Tests: 18 unit tests covering label derivation, FIFO binding, interleaved
sessions, fallback paths, and a realistic four-lens parallel fan-out
simulation. Full action test suite stays green (400 passing).

This is the pre-flight instrumentation that the multi-lens validation
runs depend on — without it, post-hoc log analysis can't tell two
subagents apart.

* log subagent dispatch + finish at info level for per-lens visibility

OpenCode's runtime currently encapsulates subagent execution inside the
`task` tool — subagent-internal tool_use/tool_result events do not surface
on the parent's NDJSON stream. The SessionLabeler I added in 0c4647f4
therefore can't actually differentiate concurrent subagent log lines
(there are no concurrent log lines on the parent stream to differentiate).

What CAN be observed on the parent stream is the dispatch and the result
of each `task` tool call. This patch surfaces both at info level:

  » dispatching subagent: lens:security (subagent_type=reviewfrog)
  ...
  » subagent finished: lens:security (15.3s, status=completed) — ...

Without this, a 4-lens parallel fan-out looks like 4 dispatches in close
succession followed by a long quiet gap and then an aggregation turn —
you can't see when each lens finished or how the durations overlapped.
With it, parallel execution is visible from the timestamps on the
"finished" lines.

The dispatched label comes from SessionLabeler.recordTaskDispatch (so
both lines share the same lens identity). taskDispatchInfo maps callID to
{label, startedAt} so the matching tool_result can compute duration and
emit the finished line.

Also added a defensive comment on the SessionLabeler instantiation
documenting that the per-event session-prefix path is currently dormant
in the opencode runtime, but kept in place so attribution flips on
automatically if/when opencode begins streaming subagent sessions.

* fix subagent-finished log: hybrid exact+FIFO callID matching

opencode does not consistently surface a tool_result callID matching the
originating tool_use callID for the `task` tool, so the previous
exact-match-only finish line never fired. Now we:

- Dual-index task dispatches by callID AND in a FIFO queue.
- Track non-task callIDs so we can identify "unrecognised callID" results
  as likely-task-with-mismatched-id.
- On tool_result, exact-match first; fall back to FIFO when the output
  looks like a subagent reply (>300 chars) and the callID is unknown.
- Flush leftover dispatches at run end with an "(inferred at run-end)"
  suffix so the gap is visible if subagent results arrive entirely off
  the tool_result event path (e.g. inlined into the next assistant
  message).

* fix subagent-finished log: move run-end flush to post-subprocess block

Investigation on T3 + finish-log-validation runs revealed two real issues
with my prior attempt:

1. The `result` event handler is dead — opencode never emits a
   `result`-typed event over its NDJSON stream, so the inferred-at-run-end
   flush I had placed there never fired. Move the flush to right after
   `runSubprocess` returns where it actually executes.

2. The FIFO heuristic was too strict — the >300-char output check
   excluded short or empty outputs that opencode's `task` tool_result
   appears to carry (the subagent's full reply seems to arrive via a
   separate channel, not the result event itself). Drop the size check;
   rely solely on `knownNonTaskCallIDs` to keep genuinely-non-task
   tool_results from popping a pending task.

Net effect: every `task` tool dispatch gets a matching `» subagent
finished` line in the logs, either from the FIFO fallback during the run
or from the run-end flush as a backstop.

* modes/anneal: anchor lens calibration in worked examples

The prior trivial-skip definition ("single-line fix, formatting-only,
…") was anchored on diff size, but real-world risk is anchored on diff
*shape*: a 5000-line lockfile regen IS trivial, and a 1-line SQL
operator flip in a billing path is NOT. The prior lens-count guidance
("there's no fixed count, bias toward more for high-stakes
subsystems") gave the agent no concrete shapes to anchor against, so
runs varied between under-pick (4 generic lenses on a billing PR) and
over-pick (5 overlapping themed lenses on a refactor).

This commit hardens both:

- Trivial definition gets explicit "looks trivial but isn't"
  anti-patterns: SQL operator flips, money/tax/timeout constants,
  feature-flag defaults, comparison operator changes, semantic 1-liners
  buried in whitespace, public-API renames, new direct deps. Skip lists
  get explicit "size doesn't matter" calibration for lockfile regens
  and mechanical renames.

- Lens count gets a worked-example ladder: 1 lens (refactor / new test
  file / isolated fix), 2-3 lenses (typical features), 4-5 lenses
  (high-stakes subsystem touches), 6+ is a smell.

- Subsystem lenses get an explicit recommendation to lead over generic
  themed equivalents for high-stakes domains, with the reasoning:
  domain framing primes the subagent for domain-specific failure modes
  (double-charges, refund races, dispute flows) the generic lens
  misses.

Mirrored byte-identical into both anneal.md copies; modes.ts updates
all three review surfaces (Build self-review, Review triage,
IncrementalReview triage).

* fix harness false-failure when Review submits without todowrite

Review and IncrementalReview prompts explicitly forbid calling
report_progress (the review IS the durable record). The post-run
harness in action/utils/run.ts errors with "agent completed without
reporting progress" when toolState.wasUpdated is false at exit. Until
now, the only path that set wasUpdated for these modes was the
todoTracker's debounced publish — which only fires if the agent
happens to call todowrite during the run. Adversarial run on PR #16
(misleading-trivial billing tweak) hit exactly this case: agent went
straight from triage → fan-out → review submission with no todowrite
calls, and the harness reported failure even though the substantive
review was successfully submitted with two inline comments.

Fix: create_pull_request_review now marks wasUpdated=true (and
finalSummaryWritten=true) on every terminal path — successful submit,
empty-content skip, and all-comments-dropped skip. Submitting a review
is unambiguously a "done" signal in these modes.

Found via adversarial testing of the multi-lens orchestrator on a
1-line tax constant change. Logged in /tmp/pullfrog-validation/v3/.

* fix harness false-failure when Review submits without todowrite (correctly)

Replaces the prior fix (acc2bd65) which set wasUpdated=true inside
create_pull_request_review. That approach worked for the harness check
but broke the orphan-comment cleanup: with wasUpdated=true and
finalSummaryWritten=true, the (!wasUpdated || trackerWasLastWriter)
condition in main.ts evaluated false and the "Leaping into action"
progress comment was left behind on every Review run — the exact
behavior the cleanup logic was designed to prevent (see
plans/review_progress_comment_cleanup_b0120f6c.plan.md).

Correct fix: change the harness check in action/utils/run.ts to
recognize a submitted PR review as an alternate completion signal
alongside wasUpdated. wasUpdated stays false on purpose so cleanup
deletes the orphan, but the run no longer false-fails when the agent
followed the Review-mode contract (submit a review, never call
report_progress).

The bug was discovered during adversarial testing of PR #16
(misleading-trivial billing tweak) where the agent went straight from
triage → fan-out → review submission without using todowrite, causing
the harness to error even though the substantive review (a CAUTION
blocking review with two inline comments catching a 10x tax cut) was
successfully posted.

* fix harness false-failure for Review modes (mode-based carve-out)

Replaces the prior carve-out (4c0f69aa) which gated on
toolState.review.id. That worked for runs where the review tool
actually populated the toolState (validation-2 succeeded), but failed
for runs that took a slightly different path where the assignment
didn't propagate visibly to handleAgentResult — even when the review
verifiably posted to GitHub.

Found this empirically: PR #19 (pure mechanical rename across 20
files) opened with the prior fix in place, the agent picked exactly
one impact lens (correct calibration!), confirmed no stale references,
submitted "Reviewed — no issues found." successfully (visible in
GitHub API), and the harness STILL errored with "agent completed
without reporting progress." Same SHA, same branch, same code as
validation-2 which passed. The toolState.review.id check turns out
not to be reliably visible from the run.ts handler in all paths.

Better fix: gate on toolState.selectedMode. Review and
IncrementalReview modes are designed to never call report_progress
(the review is the durable record, and IncrementalReview's
non-substantive path produces no artifact at all by design). The
harness completion check makes no sense for these modes — skip it
entirely. The agent's clean subprocess exit is the completion signal.

This also handles edge cases the previous fix missed: IncrementalReview's
non-substantive path (no review submitted by design) and any future
Review-flow shape that doesn't end at create_pull_request_review.

* ci: trigger Test run to validate models-live timeout/concurrency changes

* ci: prune passthrough models from live smoke matrix

openrouter/* aliases and keyed opencode/* aliases are routing-layer
wrappers around models we already smoke-test directly. running every
passthrough burns CI minutes (~30 min/run) without catching anything
the direct smoke doesn't — slug drift is already covered by the
models-catalog job.

keep one canary per routing layer (openrouter/claude-sonnet,
opencode/claude-sonnet) to validate auth + tool-call translation. free
opencode models stay in the matrix since they're unique to the provider.
INCLUDE_ALL_PASSTHROUGHS=1 bypasses the prune for full validation.

matrix size: 37 → 20 jobs.

* fix isRateLimited false-positive on UUIDs/timestamps containing 429

The bare "429" substring pattern was matching MCP session IDs (e.g.
`...-4429-...`) and microsecond timestamps in agent stdout, sending
transient failures down the 60s rate-limit retry path. With the new
4-minute per-step CI timeout, that backoff plus a slow retry pushed the
step past its budget and timed out.

Switch to regex patterns and gate the numeric code on `\b429\b` so word
boundaries prevent the substring false-match. Verified locally that the
UUID `97287d2f-ae1d-4429-8627-73e2454e80ca` and timestamp `02:04:50.9429654`
no longer match while real `HTTP 429` / `"status":429` strings still do.

David Blass 57bd10d6dd run-issues fixes: #5, #11, #12, #15, #16/#25, #20, #21, #22, #31 (#546)
* fix(#15): precompute diff anchors in checkout_pr TOC

* test(#15): update TOC snapshot for precomputed diff anchors

* chore(tests): skip codex-mini-latest models.dev check + refresh latest-by-provider snapshot

* fix(#22): add commitCount and commitLog to checkout_pr return

* fix(#21): include PR body in checkout_pr return

* fix(#5): force-fetch PR refspec to overwrite stale local branch

* fix(#31): rename git tool parameter from subcommand to command

* fix(#11): soft-fail post-checkout hook, bump timeout to 10min

* fix(#16): strengthen diff file usage guidance

Agent was bypassing diffPath and running `git diff` instead. Tighten
instructions in `checkout_pr` result and remove the mixed-signal
"log, diff" listing in the global Git guidance. `git log` and
`git diff --stat` remain allowed for commit-range overview.

* fix(#20): drop invalid inline review comments instead of failing review

Previously, a single inline comment anchored outside a diff hunk would
422 the entire review submission. Pre-validate comments against the
PR file patches via listFiles, drop the invalid ones, and append a
note to the review body listing what was skipped. Include the dropped
list in the tool response so the agent can retry targeted fixes.

* fix(#12): stop MCP server on inner activity kill + filter reconnect noise

Inner-activity-kill zombies were burning multi-hour runner time because
mcp-proxy's SSE reconnect and provider-error retry lines kept the outer
activity timer alive long after the agent subprocess was killed.

- Filter [mcp-proxy] / "provider error detected" chunks so they don't
  count as outer-timer activity.
- Add onActivityTimeout callback to spawn + thread through agent runs.
- main.ts wires that callback to stop the MCP HTTP server (so reconnects
  finally fail instead of looping) and arms a 5min safety-net timer that
  force-rejects the outer timer if the agent promise is still pending.

* audit: harden #12 lifecycle + cover #20/#12 with unit tests

Bugs found during Ralph audit of the prior run-issues fixes:

- main.ts's 5min safety-net setTimeout was never cleared on the happy
  path; also activityTimeout.stop() didn't null the internal rejectFn,
  so a late forceReject from the safety-net could still reject a
  long-resolved promise. Timer now cleared in finally; stop() now
  disarms forceReject.
- mcp server disposal was non-idempotent, so the inner-kill path ran
  server.stop() twice once the outer `await using` block exited. Made
  the returned disposer idempotent.

Tests:

- action/mcp/review.test.ts: 14 tests for commentableLinesForFile
  (multi-hunk, no-count hunks, no-newline marker, empty) and
  validateInlineComments (file not in diff, wrong side, out-of-range
  line and start_line, partitioning batches, default side).
- action/utils/activity.test.ts: 6 tests for isActivityNoise covering
  mcp-proxy lines, provider-error lines, mixed chunks, Buffer input.

* audit(#22): cap commitLog at 200 + scope git-diff restriction to PR review

- cap git log --oneline at 200 entries so a PR with thousands of commits
  cannot blow up the MCP tool response; expose commitLogTruncated so
  callers can warn the agent when the log was clipped
- tighten instruction wording so `git diff` / `git diff --cached` remain
  available for inspecting an agent's own uncommitted changes, while
  PR review content must still come from diffPath

* audit(#11,#22,#31): surface hook/commit warnings in instructions + polish git tool

- append hookWarning + commitLogTruncated advisories to checkout_pr
  instructions so the agent actually sees the warning inline, not just
  as a field it may skip
- fix stale 'subcommand' wording in git tool redirect for `pull` and
  in the `command` parameter description; the MCP parameter is named
  `command` now, and that's what the agent binds to

* fix(#20): reassign params.comments even when all inline comments dropped

if every inline comment fails pre-validation, the earlier guard skipped
reassigning params.comments, so the submission still carried the bad
comments and GitHub 422'd on the whole review. always reassign to
validation.valid so the downstream 'nothing left to post' skip fires
and an otherwise-empty review is no-oped cleanly.

* audit(#22): degrade gracefully when base ref isn't resolvable

checkout_pr used to assume \`origin/<base>\` is always reachable, but
it isn't guaranteed after a shallow fetch that only pulled down the PR
head. Failing the whole checkout over metadata we added for ergonomics
would be a regression, so wrap the rev-list / log in a try/catch and
return empty commit metadata instead.

* audit(#12): anchor noise patterns to line start to avoid false positives

before this, a line like "agent said: [mcp-proxy] was there" or
"context: provider error detected in log" in real agent output would
have been treated as noise and failed to reset the outer activity
timer. both patterns now anchor at the start of the (optionally
debug-timestamped) line, matching only lines mcp-proxy or our own
log.info actually emit.

* audit(#20): export and unit-test formatDroppedCommentsNote

covers single-line `path:N`, multi-line `path:start-end`, and
startLine==line fallback so changes to the dropped-comments note
format surface in test diffs instead of only in GitHub UI.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* audit(#20): cap dropped-comment note to stay under GitHub body limit

a pathological run (agent emits hundreds of invalid inline comments
on a huge PR and they all get dropped) would push the review body
past GitHub's ~65KB limit and fail the whole submission with a
body-too-long 422 — the exact all-or-nothing failure #20 was meant
to prevent. cap the detail list at 50 entries with a "…and N more"
line so the note stays bounded.

* audit(#20): distinguish binary/no-patch files in dropped-comment reason

previously a comment on a binary file (or pure rename / mode-only
change) was dropped with "line X is not inside a diff hunk", which
misleads the agent into retrying with different line numbers. call
out the no-textual-diff case explicitly so the agent knows to move
that feedback to the review body instead.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* audit(#11): replace lifecycle timeout string-match with typed sentinel

spawn() now rejects with SpawnTimeoutError (code === SPAWN_TIMEOUT_CODE or
SPAWN_ACTIVITY_TIMEOUT_CODE) instead of a plain Error. executeLifecycleHook
now branches on that code so rewording the error message in subprocess.ts
can no longer silently misroute timeouts into the "transient — retry"
warning.

* audit(#12): route agent hung-vs-failed via typed SpawnTimeoutError

claude.ts and opentoad.ts decide between "hung" and "failed" log wording
based on the subprocess error. move them off the literal "activity
timeout" substring match onto the same SPAWN_ACTIVITY_TIMEOUT_CODE
sentinel used by lifecycle.ts so all three call sites agree on the
source of truth.

* audit(#20): delete leftover pending review when submit fails

Why: `createAndSubmitWithFooter` creates a PENDING review first so we can
mint Fix-links with the review ID, then submits. If submitReview fails
(e.g. 422 from a race where the diff moved between pre-validation and
submission), the draft was left on the PR. GitHub only allows one
pending review per user, so the agent's retry would then fail with
"already has a pending review" — an error the agent has no tools to
clean up from.

Best-effort cleanup: delete the pending draft on submit failure before
re-throwing the original error, so retries start from a clean slate.

* audit(#31): point agent to concrete alternative when rebase/bisect blocked

Why: in disabled-shell mode, `git rebase` and `git bisect` are blocked as
arbitrary-code-execution escape hatches. Previous error messages
explained *why* but left the agent without a next step — especially
painful right after the `pull` redirect, which suggested "merge or
rebase locally." The agent would follow that advice, hit the rebase
block, and loop without knowing what to try next.

Now: rebase block explicitly says "use 'merge' instead"; bisect block
notes that manual bisect is also unavailable through this tool; pull
redirect no longer recommends rebase in shell-disabled contexts.

* audit: import security tables into security.test to prevent drift

Why: the security tests re-declared AUTH_REQUIRED_REDIRECT,
NOSHELL_BLOCKED_SUBCOMMANDS, and NOSHELL_BLOCKED_ARGS inline with
hand-copied message strings. When the runtime messages in git.ts were
tightened (recent rebase/bisect guidance updates), the test copies
drifted and tests validated a stale version of the logic while passing
clean. A missing or mistyped entry in git.ts could therefore slip
through.

Now: export the tables from git.ts and import them into the test file.
If a runtime message changes, the tests exercise the new string
automatically; if an entry is added or removed, tests covering that
command see the change without manual sync.

* audit: widen pending-review cleanup to cover pre-submit throws

getApiUrl() (invoked in footer build) can throw if API_URL is
misconfigured, which would leak a pending draft between createReview
and the previous submitReview try/catch. Move the try/catch to wrap
the entire post-create body so any throw routes through
deletePendingReview cleanup.

* audit: reject leading-dash refs/branch names to block flag injection

git's parseopt accepts options intermixed with positional args, so a ref
like "--upload-pack=evil" passed to git_fetch could be parsed as a flag
rather than a refspec. Add a narrow rejectIfLeadingDash helper to
git_fetch (ref), delete_branch (branchName), and push_branch
(branchName). HTTPS remotes ignore --upload-pack server-side, but the
hygiene matters for defense in depth (ssh remotes, future code paths).

* audit: validate the resolved branch in push_branch too

When branchName is omitted, rev-parse surfaces the current branch name,
which could start with '-' if git state was tampered with. Move the
leading-dash check to after the branch is resolved so both the explicit
and derived paths go through validation.

* audit: cache commentable-lines snapshot at checkout to match review anchor

Review comments are anchored to checkoutSha (commit_id), but validation
was hitting pulls.listFiles at review time — latest HEAD, not the SHA the
agent actually reviewed. If the PR was updated mid-run, valid comments
could be silently dropped (or invalid ones admitted). Snapshot the
commentable lines during checkout_pr so review-time validation matches
the anchor exactly.

* audit(#12): route activity monitor's own debug output around the write wrap

startProcessOutputMonitor monkey-patches process.stdout.write to mark
activity, then called log.debug(...) every 5s to report idle time — which
landed right back in its own wrapper, failed isActivityNoise, and called
markActivity. with ACTIONS_STEP_DEBUG=true (common on reruns) the idle
counter reset every interval and the timeout could never fire,
re-creating the #12 zombie-run bug for any debug-enabled run.

Fix: capture the original stdout.write and use it directly for the
monitor's own diagnostics so they bypass the feedback loop. Added a
tight-timeout regression test that asserts the timeout still rejects in
debug mode.

* audit(#12): noise-filter subprocess.ts monitor logs so outer timer survives debug

activity.ts's own monitor output already bypasses the wrap (c35cd3fb),
but subprocess.ts's spawn activity timer uses log.debug — which goes
straight through process.stdout.write and would still mark activity on
every interval when debug logging is enabled. Pattern-filter those
'(spawn|process) activity (check|timer|monitor)' lines in both local
([DEBUG] ...) and GH-runner (::debug::...) formats so they don't reset
the outer agent-hang timer.

Kept scoped to those specific monitor messages — a blanket [DEBUG]
filter would silently classify any coincidentally-debug-prefixed agent
output as idle, which is a worse failure mode than the one we're
fixing.

* audit(#11): surface spawn ENOENT-style errors in stderr buffer

spawn() resolved with exitCode=1 and an empty stderr when the command
itself couldn't start (missing binary, bad permissions). lifecycle.ts
then reported 'output: (empty)' to the user, who was explicitly told
'retry if the failure looks flaky' — so every run hit the same wall with
no diagnostic trail.

Append the '[spawn] <cmd>: <node error>' line to stderrBuffer before
resolving so the real cause (ENOENT, EACCES, …) flows through to the
hook-warning message.

* audit(#11,#12): cover executeLifecycleHook typed-timeout routing

the typed SpawnTimeoutError + sentinel-code branching introduced in
d7ee7fd2 / ea8dd2c4 classifies hung vs failed lifecycle hooks — critical
for whether agents retry — but had no unit coverage. add tests for all
four branches (no script, exit 0, non-zero exit with retry-if-flaky
guidance, timeout with do-NOT-retry guidance, transient spawn failure).

* audit: re-verify clean tree after prepush hook

the pre-prepush check guarantees we enter the hook with a clean tree, but
if the hook writes tracked files (formatter, type generator, build
artifacts), the push still only sends the pre-hook commit — the hook's
edits silently disappear from the upstream branch while the tool reports
"successfully pushed". add a post-hook status check so the agent sees the
dropped mutations and can commit or discard them before retrying.

* audit: reject push_tags refspec injection via ':' in tag name

without tag validation, a tag like "foo:refs/heads/main" concatenated into
"refs/tags/${tag}" becomes a valid <src>:<dst> refspec — git pushes the
local refs/tags/foo's commit to remote main, bypassing push_branch's
default-branch guard. same shape blocks leading '-' (flag injection) and
other refspec metacharacters (~ ^ ? * [ \) via an allow-list regex.
only reachable in push=enabled today, so this is defense-in-depth, but
hardens the tool in case push_tags is ever exposed in restricted mode.

* audit: stop pointing agents at an internal constant they can't change

the lifecycle-hook timeout warning told agents to "bump
LIFECYCLE_HOOK_TIMEOUT_MS" — but that's a hard-coded constant in the
action, not something the agent or repo owner can tune. the agent would
plausibly loop hunting for where to change it. redirect to the actual
lever they control: ask the repo owner to simplify the hook.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* audit: drop inverted inline-comment ranges locally with precise reason

validateInlineComments only checked that both line and start_line anchor
inside a hunk, not that start_line <= line. an inverted range (e.g.
start=44, line=42) would pass local validation and GitHub would 422 with
"invalid line numbers" — opaque to the agent and unfixable without
reading docs. reject locally with a reason that names the constraint.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* audit: don't let usage-summary write error mask main's outcome

writeGitHubUsageSummaryToFile is called in main's finally block. it can
throw on ENOSPC / EACCES / missing parent dir. a throw here propagates
past the try's successful return or the catch's error return, hiding the
actual run outcome behind an I/O failure on a purely informational file.
swallow the write error (debug-logged) — the summary is nice-to-have, not
load-bearing.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* audit: don't mislabel agent handler errors as JSON parse failures

the onStdout event loop wrapped both JSON.parse and the handler call in
one try/catch that logged every caught error as 'non-JSON stdout line'.
if a handler threw (e.g. todowrite state shape drift), the error was
silently classified as a parse error, making diagnosis impossible. split
the try blocks so JSON errors and handler errors get distinct,
identifying log lines.

* audit: reject leading-dash PR refs before they reach git commands

PR head/base refs come from GitHub and are attacker-controlled on fork
PRs (the PR author picks headRef freely). they flow straight into
`git fetch origin <ref>`, `git checkout -B <ref>`, and config writes.
without a leading-dash check, a ref named like '-upload-pack=evil'
could be parsed as a flag instead of a refspec.

validate both refs at the top of checkoutPrBranch (before any async
work) and cover the two attack shapes with unit tests.

* audit: cover ActivityTimeout.stop()'s forceReject disarming

main.ts's safety-net-timer path depends on ActivityTimeout.stop()
nulling out rejectFn so a late safety-net fire after a successful
agent run is a no-op. that behavior had no direct coverage — removing
the \`rejectFn = null\` in stop() would silently break the happy path
(unhandled rejection / spurious failure) without failing any test.

add three tests covering: forceReject rejects with the reason,
stop() disarms forceReject, and forceReject after timer rejection
is an idempotent no-op.

* audit: stabilize activity-timeout idleSec against late stdout race

* audit: reject 0ms timeout parses to avoid insta-fail from '0m'

* audit: surface raw GitHub error on review 422 instead of assuming anchor cause

* audit: key commentable-lines cache by PR number to prevent cross-PR drift

* audit: enumerate concrete 422 causes and name checkout_pr in review error

* audit: stop shipping ralph-loop runtime state in PR history

.claude/ralph-loop.local.md and .claude/ralph-loop-prompt.md were
accidentally staged in an earlier audit commit. the .local.md suffix is
conventional for gitignored runtime state, and the prompt file is
per-run harness config — neither should merge to main. ignore the
pattern and untrack the existing entries (files remain on disk so the
active loop keeps working).

* audit: pin commentable-lines cache to checkoutSha, not just PR number

a second checkout_pr(N) call advances toolState.checkoutSha at line 305
or 334, then runs fetchAndFormatPrDiff + cache population at line 549.
any throw between those two points (rate limit, 5xx, network blip) left
the old snapshot keyed to (pullNumber=N) while checkoutSha now points at
a different sha. review_pr(N) would reuse the stale snapshot, silently
validating comments against the wrong anchor — the original failure this
cache was meant to prevent.

track commentableLinesCheckoutSha alongside the pull number and require
both to match before returning the cache. if either has moved, fall
back to listFiles like any other miss.

* audit: auto-clear leftover pending review from killed prior runs

a workflow timeout or OOM between createReview PENDING and submitReview
leaves GitHub holding a pending draft. the next run hits GitHub's
one-pending-per-user-per-PR limit and 422s at pending-create, with no
way to recover short of a human cleaning up manually.

catch 422 at pending-create, list the PR's reviews (GitHub only exposes
our own pending to us, so the filter is safe), delete the leftover, and
retry once. 404/422 on the cleanup are treated as no-ops (race with
another concurrent cleanup or the draft was submitted); any other
cleanup error rethrows so the real cause reaches the caller.

* audit: extract + unit-test stranded-pending-review cleanup

the recovery branch inside createAndSubmitWithFooter had no direct test
coverage. a regression in any of its guards (status check, message
match, listReviews filter, 404/422 tolerance, non-retryable rethrow)
would silently cause either destructive deletes of unrelated reviews or
the old failure mode where a stranded pending draft blocks every retry.

extract to clearStrandedPendingReview so the cases can be exercised with
a mocked octokit, and add tests for each branch — including the
load-bearing negative cases (non-422 passthrough, non-pending-review 422
passthrough, no-leftover-found passthrough, non-retryable cleanup error
passthrough). no behavior change at the call site.

* audit: document concurrent-run race in clearStrandedPendingReview

two runs on the same PR using the same GitHub App installation token would
both see each other's PENDING draft via listReviews (GitHub exposes PENDING
only to the author, and both runs share authorship). the loser's recovery
path would delete the winner's active draft, causing the winner's
submitReview to 404.

no reliable in-request signal distinguishes a genuinely-stranded prior-run
draft from an active peer's draft — PENDING reviews have no created_at,
and the user field is the same bot in both cases. the correct fix is
workflow-level concurrency (a per-PR concurrency key), not a heuristic
here. document the limitation so future readers don't try to bolt on a
broken heuristic.

* audit: report signal-killed subprocesses as failures, not exit code 0

node's close event delivers (code=null, signal=<name>) when a child is
killed by signal (OOM killer, segfault, external SIGTERM). the close
handler captured only exitCode and coerced null to 0 via `exitCode || 0`,
so lifecycle hooks killed by signal were silently reported as successful —
lifecycle.ts's `if (result.exitCode !== 0)` check skipped the warning and
callers proceeded as if setup/post-checkout/prepush had completed.

now capture signal, append "killed by signal <name>" to stderr, and
resolve with exitCode=1 when code is null but signal is set. adds a
regression test that spawns `kill -KILL \$\$` and asserts a non-zero
exit plus the signal-kill marker in stderr.

* audit: untrack RUN_ISSUES*.md ralph-loop working docs

same pattern called out in 4f14dbf1: these files are per-run harness
state and analysis scratch, not merge-to-main deliverables. the TODO
literally opens with "Ralph loop instructions:", so it's unambiguously
in the same category as .claude/ralph-loop-prompt.md was. files stay on
disk so the active loop keeps working.

* audit: block refs/... + symbolic-ref bypass of default-branch guard

push_branch's restricted-mode guard compared the resolved remoteBranch
against defaultBranch with exact-string equality. an agent passing
branchName "refs/heads/main" flowed through: rejectIfLeadingDash passed,
getPushDestination's fallback preserved the refs/heads/main string as
remoteBranch, so "refs/heads/main" !== "main" and the block was skipped,
yet git push happily resolved refs/heads/main to the local main commit
and pushed to the remote main branch. symbolic refs (HEAD / FETCH_HEAD /
ORIG_HEAD / MERGE_HEAD) are the same class of bypass — they resolve to
whatever commit they point at, unconstrained by the name-based guard.

add rejectSpecialRef to enforce bare branch names at the tool entry, use
it in push_branch and delete_branch. checkout_pr only ever assigns
pr-<number> as the local branch, so nothing legitimate relied on the
refs/... form here.

* audit: keep original 422 visible when listReviews fails during pending-review cleanup

if listReviews threw (e.g. transient 502, rate limit) during the stranded
pending-review recovery path, the listing failure replaced the original
422 "pending review" error when it propagated up through the tool's outer
catch. agents then saw a generic server error with no mention of the real
blocker and stopped retrying the cleanup.

now the listing failure is logged at debug but does not mask the original
422. the caller's retry re-attempts cleanup, which succeeds if the listing
failure was transient.

* audit: block default-branch deletion even under push: enabled

delete_branch required push: enabled, but within that mode the agent
could delete the default branch with no local guard. GitHub branch
protection usually catches this at the remote, but not every repo
has protection configured — and even when it does, relying on remote
config for local safety is wrong. pushing to main is reversible
(revert, force-push old HEAD); deleting main is not (reflog recovery
only, 30-day window).

block deletion of the resolved default_branch in DeleteBranchTool
regardless of push permission. push: enabled authorizes pushes, not
wholesale removal of the repository's primary branch.

* audit: attach no-op catch to agentPromise so a late rejection can't crash cleanup

agentPromise raced against activityTimeout.promise (and the --timeout
timeoutPromise), both of which had .catch(() => {}) handlers. agentPromise
did not. if a timeout won the race, agentPromise became stranded and its
subsequent rejection was an unhandled rejection — under node 15+'s default
unhandled-rejection policy that terminates the process, which would kill
main() mid-cleanup and lose the error-reporting and usage-summary work
queued in the catch/finally blocks.

the race still sees the rejection (the original promise is shared); this
catch only prevents node from treating a post-race rejection as unobserved.

* audit: close push_branch refspec-injection via ':' / '+' in branchName

rejectSpecialRef only forbade leading-dash, `refs/` prefix, and symbolic
refs. git push accepts `[+]src[:dst]` refspec syntax, so an agent under
push:restricted could smuggle a full refspec through branchName and bypass
the downstream exact-string default-branch guard:

  "evil:refs/heads/main"  → push local 'evil' to remote main
  ":refs/heads/main"      → delete remote main
  ":other"                → delete arbitrary branches (outside grant)
  "+main"                 → force-push refspec prefix

reject ':', '+', '^', '~', '?', '*', '[', '\\', and whitespace — git's own
check-ref-format forbids all of them in branch names, so the allow-list
cannot false-positive against a legitimate branch. add regression tests.

* audit: stop suggesting blocked 'rebase' in push_rejected advice under shell=disabled

Why: when push fails with non-fast-forward, the advice told the agent to run 'git rebase origin/...'. In shell=disabled mode the git MCP tool blocks rebase (as an arbitrary-code-execution escape hatch), so the agent's only path forward was to hit the block, read the fallback message, and try merge — one wasted round trip.

Now: under shell=disabled we directly suggest 'git merge origin/...', which always works. Under other modes the advice keeps the rebase/merge choice but leads with merge so the example is copy-pastable either way.

* audit: harden includeIf cleanup against shell-injection via subsection names

setupGit read `includeif.*` keys via `git config --get-regexp`, split on the
first space, and fed the result into `execSync(\`git config --unset
"${key}"\`)`. git config subsection values preserve arbitrary characters,
so a crafted `[includeIf "gitdir:$(touch${IFS}/tmp/pwn)safe"]` entry
round-trips through `--get-regexp` with its `$(...)` command substitution
intact, survives the split-on-space filter (IFS-bypass leaves the payload
space-free), and gets evaluated when interpolated into the shell command.

Confirmed reachable as an RCE sink in local repro.

Switch to `--get-regexp -z` (null-terminated, no ambiguity on whitespace)
and call `$("git", ["config", "--unset-all", key])` which uses spawn-array
and never hands the key to a shell. Extract the logic into
`removeIncludeIfEntries` and add regression tests covering the injection
payload, whitespace-in-subsection keys, benign entries, and the no-op case.

* audit: clear SIGKILL escalator on clean SIGTERM exit

the overall-timeout path scheduled a 5s SIGKILL follow-up without
capturing the timer id. if the child cooperated with SIGTERM and
`close` fired promptly, the escalator stayed pending in the event
loop for up to 5s — delaying any subsequent clean shutdown (e.g.
the main action exiting after an agent timeout) by that long.

capture sigkillEscalatorId alongside timeoutId and clear it in both
close and error handlers. regression test asserts the active-timer
count does not grow past the pre-spawn baseline after a timed-out
child exits on SIGTERM.

* audit: correct rebase-availability hints to reflect shell=restricted

the MCP git tool only blocks rebase when shell=disabled
(NOSHELL_BLOCKED_SUBCOMMANDS check in GitTool). under
shell=restricted, git({command: "rebase"}) works fine through the
tool — NOSHELL_BLOCKED_SUBCOMMANDS doesn't apply. but two
agent-facing messages implied rebase is only available with
shell=enabled:

- AUTH_REQUIRED_REDIRECT["pull"] said "rebase is only available
  when shell is enabled"
- push-rejected integrateStep (non-disabled branch) said
  "(or 'rebase' if shell is enabled)"

under shell=restricted, agents reading these would wrongly think
they had to pick merge — pushing them toward merge commits when
rebase would have been cleaner. the push-rejected branch is
already ternary-gated on shell !== "disabled", so the qualifier
there was just redundant noise.

* audit: block difftool/mergetool under shell=disabled

git difftool -x <cmd> is the short form of --extcmd. the args
blocklist only matches --extcmd / --extcmd=*, so -x slipped
through and let an agent run arbitrary commands even when
shell=disabled. globally blocking -x would false-positive on
git cherry-pick -x, which only appends metadata, so block
difftool (and mergetool, same shape via mergetool.<name>.cmd)
at the subcommand level instead. agents have no legitimate need
for either — diffs go through diff/show and merges are resolved
by file edits.

* audit: recover stranded PENDING drafts on no-body createReview too

The body path already clears a stranded PENDING draft from a prior
crashed run via createAndSubmitWithFooter's own try/catch. The no-body
path (approve-with-no-feedback or comments-only) called createReview
directly — so a PR whose previous body-path run crashed between
createReview(PENDING) and submitReview would permanently 422 any
subsequent no-body review with "already has a pending review" until a
body-path run happened to clear it.

Factored out createReviewWithStrandedRecovery so both paths get the
same recovery treatment, and added regression tests covering the
no-stranded / stranded-and-retry / non-stranded-422-no-retry cases.

* audit: reject timeouts past node's setTimeout ceiling

a user-supplied timeout like "999h" parses fine (parseTimeString has no
upper cap) but falls off the 2^31-1 ms limit setTimeout clamps to 1ms.
the agent run would reject with "timed out after 999h" in a single tick.

extract a resolveTimeoutMs helper that centralizes the zero/overflow/
unparseable checks (previously scattered behind inline boolean logic in
main.ts) and cover the behavior with unit tests including the boundary
value.

* fix(#22): replace parameter property in SpawnTimeoutError

node --experimental-strip-types rejects readonly/public/private param
properties in constructors. tests run via node directly (no tsc), so CI
was hitting ERR_UNSUPPORTED_TYPESCRIPT_SYNTAX on every action-agents /
action-agnostic job before any test code ran.

declare the field and assign in the body instead.

* audit: tighten git tool description and delete_branch refspec

- `git` tool description previously implied `pull` had a dedicated MCP tool
  alongside `push_branch`/`git_fetch`. it doesn't — the redirect sends the
  agent back to the same git tool with `command: "merge"` (or `rebase`).
  update the description to teach this directly instead of letting agents
  discover it through the redirect error.
- `delete_branch` now passes `refs/heads/${branchName}` to `git push --delete`
  so a same-named tag can't be silently deleted when both exist on the
  remote. `rejectSpecialRef` already guarantees the bare-name invariant, so
  the template construction stays injection-safe.

Made-with: Cursor

* audit: polish review.ts per anneal findings

- drop `as "LEFT" | "RIGHT"` cast in `validateInlineComments` — octokit
  types `side?: string` at the createReview endpoint, so narrow via
  `c.side === "LEFT" ? "LEFT" : "RIGHT"`. no cast, no redundant
  annotation — TS infers the literal union from the ternary.
- consolidate `clearStrandedPendingReview` from 3 params to 2 by folding
  `originalErr` into `params`, per AGENTS.md "max 2 parameters" rule.
  updates both call sites (`createReviewWithStrandedRecovery`,
  `createAndSubmitWithFooter`) and all 7 test paths.
- upgrade `listReviews`-during-cleanup failure log from `log.debug` to
  `log.info` so operators not running at debug still see that recovery
  was attempted before the original 422 bubbles up. message now reads
  "surfacing original 422" to make the intent unambiguous.

Made-with: Cursor

* audit: signal partial commit metadata in checkout_pr

previously a rev-list/log failure (e.g. shallow fetch where
`origin/<base>` isn't reachable) silently returned `commitCount: 0,
commitLog: ""` — indistinguishable from "this PR has no commits past
base", which could mislead review reasoning about scope.

add a `commitLogUnavailable: boolean` field to `CheckoutPrResult`, set
when the rev-list/log calls throw. instructions footer now tells the
agent to treat the values as "unknown" rather than "no commits" in that
case. message phrased to cover the rare case where rev-list succeeds
but git log throws (partial, not strictly zero) metadata.

Made-with: Cursor

* audit: fix parseDiffTocEntries to match production ' · diff-<sha>' TOC suffix

the regex required $ right after the line range, but formatFilesWithLineNumbers
in checkout.ts appends ` · diff-<sha256>` so agents have the GitHub "Files Changed"
anchor precomputed. result: tocEntries was always empty on real PR reviews,
breakdown.files was empty, and runDiffCoveragePreflight never fired its
one-time "read the diff" nudge. add an optional suffix to the regex and a
regression test that uses the exact production TOC shape.

Made-with: Cursor

* audit(#20): skip empty downgraded-APPROVE reviews before they 422

GitHub rejects `event: "COMMENT"` reviews with no body and no inline
comments (HTTP 422 "Unprocessable Entity", verified empirically on
repos/pullfrog/preview-546-run-issues-fixes/pulls/1). the runtime
`prApproveEnabled` downgrade folds approved=true into event=COMMENT
when the repo flag is off, so an agent asking to APPROVE a PR with no
other feedback produces exactly that rejected shape — but the existing
empty-review skip only fired for !approved cases, so the tool POSTed
the doomed COMMENT, octokit returned what looked like a success-with-
no-persisted-review shape, and agents reported a phantom reviewId that
404s on any subsequent GET.

extract the skip decision into `reviewSkipDecision` and add a second
branch for approved + !prApproveEnabled + empty. the function returns
null when the review should be submitted, so a real bare APPROVE
(approved + prApproveEnabled + empty) still goes through unchanged —
GitHub accepts empty APPROVE reviews because the stamp itself is the
content.

surfaced in the PR #546 preview e2e run 24678139563 (reviewId
4141786854 reported by the agent but absent from every reviews
listing). TC13 run 24680349445 re-ran the same scenario with
prApproveEnabled=enabled and the review persisted correctly, isolating
the cause to the downgrade + empty interaction.

* audit(#31): drop misleading rebase mention from pull redirect

AUTH_REQUIRED_REDIRECT["pull"] and the git tool's top-level description
both said "use git_fetch then this tool with command 'merge' (or
'rebase' unless shell is disabled)". the "(or 'rebase' unless shell is
disabled)" qualifier is active misinformation when the agent is
already running under shell=disabled: rebase is blocked there by
NOSHELL_BLOCKED_SUBCOMMANDS, so the suggestion sends the agent into a
second block on the next tool call.

3b83ee97 already fixed this pattern for the push-rejected advice at
line 248, but the pull redirect at line 280 and the tool description
at line 351 were missed. the right copy isn't a conditional qualifier
that agents have to parse against their own shell mode — it's just
naming the one alternative that works everywhere (merge). agents under
shell=restricted/enabled who want rebase can invoke it directly; the
redirect doesn't need to advertise it.

verified in preview e2e run 24679728733 (TC8 probe 6) where the agent
correctly captured the verbatim redirect message under shell=disabled
and explicitly flagged the "(or 'rebase' unless shell is disabled)"
clause as confusing — the new test in security.test.ts asserts the
message names merge and never rebase in every shell mode.

* audit: drop vestigial entry/post references + add preview-546 settings util

followup to d79860c6 "refactor: flatten action entrypoints" (Apr 10),
which moved action.yml from built `entry`/`post` files to source
`entry.ts`/`post.ts` but left three stale references lying around:

- .gitignore: `action/run/entry` / `action/dispatch/entry` paths no
  longer exist anywhere in the build.
- .github/workflows/pull-from-action.yml: agent instruction told the
  upstream sync agent to "Ignore `entry` files (they are built artifacts
  and .gitignored in this repo)". there are no built entry artifacts
  anymore — entry.ts is source.
- .cursor/settings.json: search.exclude pattern "**/entry" excluded the
  old built files that no longer exist.

none of these were load-bearing on their own, but the same drift had
already broken preview e2e end-to-end: the pullfrog/template workflow's
three-file copy step (cp .../entry, cp .../post) silently failed with
cp: no such file on every preview PR since Apr 10. that template fix
went to pullfrog/template@7ec7c8d and the preview-546 mirror at
@17ab585, which is what unblocked this PR's full e2e validation.

also adds scripts/preview-546-settings.ts, the helper used during the
e2e validation to show/set/reset DB-level repo settings on the Neon
preview branch (push, shell, prApproveEnabled, hook scripts). scoped
to this preview repo ID so it can't accidentally mutate prod.

* audit(#11): scope removeIncludeIfEntries to repoDir under inherited GIT_*

the function takes `repoDir` as the target, but plain execSync / $(...)
inherit GIT_DIR, GIT_WORK_TREE, and GIT_INDEX_FILE from the parent
process — and `git config --local` honors GIT_DIR over cwd. when this
runs as a child of another git invocation (notably the pre-push hook,
but also any future caller embedded inside a git subcommand), the
cleanup silently targets the outer repo instead of repoDir. latent
today because the real caller is ASKPASS setup, which runs before any
git-subcommand ancestor exists, but the function's contract still
promised the wrong thing — and the test suite hit exactly this bug
when invoked through `git push`.

- envScopedToRepo() strips GIT_* before both the get-regexp and unset
  calls, so cwd wins.
- swap the $(...) shell helper for execFileSync on the unset call. $()
  would merge our scoped env with a "restricted" base that's tuned for
  hook execution (no tokens) — overkill here and it re-introduces the
  shell-vs-argv distinction this function was explicitly hardened
  against in a9aa3b2b. execFileSync with argv is the right tool for a
  call where the key can contain arbitrary characters.
- setup.test.ts also strips GIT_* in its own execSync harness so the
  suite passes identically under `pnpm vitest run`, `pnpm -r test`,
  and `git push`'s pre-push hook.

- add --effort high/max to Claude Code CLI (max for Opus, high for Sonnet/Haiku).
  default was silently dropped from high to medium in March 2026.
- add subagent guidance to Review/IncrementalReview modeGuidance for parallel
  investigation of large cross-cutting PRs (read-only, no side effects).
- remove "THINK HARDER" from mode prompts (vestigial, no longer controls thinking).
- remove redundant mode.prompt bodies from modes.ts — the actual guidance lives in
  modeGuidance (selectMode.ts) and mode.prompt was dead code for all built-in modes
  since the delegation system was removed in March.

Made-with: Cursor

* make Mode.prompt optional, remove ModeSchema dead code

prompt is only needed by custom user-defined modes (validated by Zod
modeSchema in utils/schemas/modes.ts). built-in modes get their guidance
from modeGuidance in selectMode.ts. the arktype ModeSchema was never
imported anywhere.

Made-with: Cursor

* make modes.ts the single source of truth for mode guidance

move all mode guidance from modeGuidance in selectMode.ts into
mode.prompt in modes.ts. selectMode.ts now only contains the runtime

PlanEdit/SummaryUpdate overrides). this eliminates the confusing
fallback chain where someone editing mode instructions had to know
to look in selectMode.ts rather than modes.ts.

* fix false "without reporting progress" error + live todo tracking

clean up orphaned progress comments when review is skipped or only
set_output is used, preventing the false positive in handleAgentResult.

parse todowrite events from OpenCode's NDJSON stream and render a
live markdown checklist in the PR progress comment (2s debounce).
agent's explicit report_progress always takes priority.

Made-with: Cursor

* fix contradictory review/progress prompting

align Review and IncrementalReview mode prompts with their guidance —
mode prompts said "always submit" while guidance said "skip if clean."
remove the empty-approval submission that was silently dropped by the
tool. make progress comment lifecycle explicit: created on first call,
updated in place, removed after review submission.

Made-with: Cursor

* centralize todo tracking into shared TodoTracker module

extract inline todo tracking logic (~95 lines) from opentoad.ts into
action/utils/todoTracking.ts. the tracker is created once in main.ts
and passed to agents via AgentRunContext.todoTracker, making it
agent-agnostic and reusable for future agent implementations.

other optional property in the same interface.

Made-with: Cursor

* instruct agents to always maintain a task list for live progress

system prompt now tells agents to create an internal task list at
the start of every run. the tracker renders it to the progress
comment automatically. report_progress is reserved for final
results only — no more intermediate "Checking..." messages that
cancel the tracker and leave stale text on the comment.

Made-with: Cursor

* require report_progress summary at end of every run

agents must always call report_progress with a final summary —
the completed task list should never be the end state of the
progress comment. updated all review mode prompts to call
report_progress after submitting (or not submitting) a review.

Made-with: Cursor

* keep progress comment after review with final summary

stop deleting the progress comment after review submission —
the agent now always calls report_progress with a summary at
the end, and that summary should persist as a record of what
was done.

Made-with: Cursor

* harden stranded progress comment cleanup

- main.ts: detect when tracker was last writer (agent never called
  report_progress) and delete the stranded checklist instead of
  leaving it as the final comment state
- postCleanup.ts: expand stuck-comment detection to also catch
  stranded todo checklists (regex match for checklist patterns)
  when the process is killed before normal cleanup runs
- modes.ts + selectMode.ts: add report_progress step to Summarize
  and SummaryUpdate modes (only modes that were missing it)

Made-with: Cursor

* fix stale comments, typo, and build mode redundancy

* address review feedback: wasUpdated bypass, tracker false-positive, race condition

- remove wasUpdated=true from cleanup paths so handleAgentResult correctly
  detects genuinely silent runs
- add hadProgressComment to ToolState as immutable snapshot for the safety check
- use todoTracker.hasPublished instead of enabled for stranded-comment cleanup
- serialize onUpdate calls via inflightPromise chain with post-cancel guard
- add settled() to wait for in-flight updates before writing final summary

Made-with: Cursor

* address round-2 review: hasPublished after success, finalSummaryWritten flag

- set hasPublished only after onUpdate resolves (not before) so failed
  writes are not counted as published
- add finalSummaryWritten flag to ToolState, set after successful
  non-plan reportProgress; decouple cleanup detection from
  todoTracker.enabled so it survives API failures where cancel() ran
  but the write didn't succeed

Colin McDonnell 4a8c432a48 add Summarize mode for updatable PR summary comments (#470)
* add Summarize mode for updatable PR summary comments

Introduces a Summarize mode that manages a single summary comment per PR,
updated in place on subsequent pushes. Mirrors the Plan/PlanEdit pattern:
API endpoint for existing-comment lookup at select_mode time, node ID
tracking on WorkflowRun, and SummaryUpdate guidance for edits.

Also fixes summary format instructions: Before/After uses inline <br/>
to avoid double line breaks, metadata line placed after key changes,
SHA-256 anchor instructions strengthened against fabrication.

* fix dead restricted param in deepenForBeforeSha

GitAuthOptions dropped the restricted field in the ASKPASS refactor (#478)
but deepenForBeforeSha (#471) still passed it. Remove the field and the
now-unused shell param from DeepenForBeforeShaParams.
