### Block 3.5 — Procedure text
|
||||
|
||||
- Model: `claude-opus-5-5[1m]` (fresh block owner, own tools, no agents dispatched)
|
||||
- Start / end: Fri Oct 16 21:59:12 WEDT 2026 / Fri Oct 16 22:06:33 WEDT 2026 (`date`; the end is the text commit, this note followed)
|
||||
- Done (digest §7.1–§7.4 with amendment A1, A6, A7, A8(b)(c), the `kill`/`expire` timeout note, N3/N4 and `init` `warnings`), written against the helper as built at `1de1029` (`where`, `--help` and every `<command> --help` run; `_conclude`, `_rebase_succeeded`, `cmd_wait`, `cmd_list`, `kill_job`, `cmd_expire`, `cmd_init`, `cmd_where`, `cmd_spawn`, `cmd_continue`, `cmd_rebase`, `cmd_tick`, `api_error_reason`, `due_flags`, the dispatcher and the supervisor's flag/reason sites read):
|
||||
- `plugins/spire/skills/gremlins/SKILL.md` (new, 120 lines): frontmatter per §7.1 with the A7 description ("Windows-tested; other platforms fail closed until tested (see Platforms)"), `allowed-tools: Bash(uv:*)`, the `!` injection `` !`uv run "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/gremlins.py" where` ``. Sections: What and when, Platforms, Setup, Commands (table + a first-phase call sequence), Waiting, Results (fields, statuses, reasons, flags, an action per failure reason, `stalled`+`clock_jump`), Rules (flags, not judgment), State.
|
||||
- `plugins/spire/agents/athanor.md`: description per §7.2 (furnace sentences, triggers, Opus pin, Agent tool, "does not plan …", non-build line kept; "blocks in the foreground" replaced); `skills:` + `spire:gremlins`; line 23 "orient by reading plans, designs, reports and notes, not code"; intake runs `where` first, then adopts (`list`) on a `Gremlins:` line, else `init` + `train` (the base writes the trunk notes), and on a closed gate fresh agents even with a state dir, "a fresh agent reads the code the blocks change and writes the trunk notes" (A1, A6); step 2 spawn/fresh-agent routing, model-mismatch rule, `rebase_due`/`retrain_due`; gate to `logs/`, `continue` once; the mechanical check (A23 default pattern `assert`); tests once to `logs/`, parallel test runs off by default; run log from `usage`; hand back with nothing running, no `expire`; fix pass by gremlins; dispatching (`script` path, `timeout: 600000`, never `SendMessage`/`TaskStop` a gremlin); keepers (no code reads, nothing running, one committer at a time with the commit table); "Tools, not the loop" as things written into briefs (A13); deliverable gains priced usage and base state. Every Agent-tool fork mention is gone (`grep -i fork` on the file: no hit).
|
||||
- `plugins/spire/skills/implementation/SKILL.md`: line 40 per §7.3; "Context: fresh, trained, or keep" with the trained-implementer-and-gremlins paragraph, A7 platform wording (no version); "Spawning and models" gains the full-model-id line. Line 12 unchanged.
|
||||
- `plugins/spire/skills/implementation/references/run-log.md`: header `- Gremlins: <state dir> (or "none: <reason>")` plus the adopt sentence (A7); the 9-column block table with the gremlin / fresh-agent fill rule (C19); phase close gains the usage table lines and the base state; the handoff note "same format for everyone" sentence; the trunk-notes heading per §7.4.
|
||||
- Checklist (§7.7 plus the amendment's rows), each with where it landed:
|
||||
- [x] `wait` with `timeout: 600000`; the Bash tool backgrounds past its timeout — SKILL Waiting (bullet 2), athanor Dispatching (bullet 1).
|
||||
- [x] `kill`: key on `ok` and `status` — SKILL Rules (`kill:` bullet).
|
||||
- [x] Windows-tested; POSIX closed — SKILL description and Platforms; athanor intake (`where` not ok bullet); implementation SKILL Context.
|
||||
- [x] C8 permissive at init, enforced at runtime — SKILL Rules (Models bullet).
|
||||
- [x] Post-exit sweep kills daemons — SKILL Rules (after `claude` exits).
|
||||
- [x] `continue` needs commit rule and note path in its brief — SKILL Rules.
|
||||
- [x] `kill`/`expire` do not refresh the orchestrator stamp — SKILL Rules (orphan watchdog bullet).
|
||||
- [x] Never re-run `init` to reset; re-run changes only given flags; margin < TTL (≤ 1800 at 1 h) — SKILL Setup (bullets 3–5); athanor intake (adopt bullet).
|
||||
- [x] Always `--phase` on `rebase`; `rebase` counts toward the cap — SKILL Rules (`rebase_due` bullet) and the `--phase` paragraph under Commands.
|
||||
- [x] `--delta-note`; `## Changes since base` is this gremlin's delta only — SKILL Rules (Delta bullet).
|
||||
- [x] No `#` lines inside the changes section, fenced code included — SKILL Rules (Delta bullet).
|
||||
- [x] Attach every note since `trained_at` to a rebase — SKILL Rules (Delta bullet); `list` row note in the Commands table.
|
||||
- [x] `train --supersedes` on a re-train — SKILL Rules (`retrain_due` bullet).
|
||||
- [x] Pings carry their base's latest phase; a ping at hand-back is not a leak — SKILL Waiting (pings bullet), Rules (nothing running bullet).
|
||||
- [x] Sequential gremlins one at a time — SKILL Rules; athanor step 2.
|
||||
- [x] `--allowed-tools` with `--tools` — SKILL Setup (last bullet).
|
||||
- [x] `messages` vs `turns` — SKILL Waiting.
|
||||
- [x] `Bash(uv run:*)` allow rule — SKILL Setup (bullet 2).
|
||||
- [x] `detach_failed` only visible in `wait` — SKILL Waiting (last bullet).
|
||||
- [x] N3 binary re-resolution; N4 `parent_inactive` — SKILL Setup (re-run bullet, with `init`'s `warnings`), Rules (re-train-during-rebase bullet), Results flags.
|
||||
- [x] A8(b) `stalled` with `clock_jump` is a host suspend; `wait` again before acting — SKILL Results (last paragraph).
|
||||
- [x] A8(c) an action per failure reason — SKILL Results ("What to do per failure reason", all eleven `failed` reasons, plus `timeout` and `lost`).
|
||||
- [x] A8(a) handoff format inlined in `preamble.md` — block 3.1 (not this block's file; checked present).
|
||||
- [x] `kill`/`expire` with a long Bash timeout — SKILL Rules; athanor Dispatching.
|
||||
- [x] A1 intake order (`where` first, then adopt; closed gate → fresh agents even with a state dir) — athanor intake; SKILL Platforms names the A1 refusals.
|
||||
- [x] A6 fallback wording — athanor intake, verbatim.
|
||||
- [x] A7 no version in platform wording, "Windows-only in 0.3.0" dropped everywhere — SKILL description and Platforms, implementation SKILL Context, athanor intake.
|
||||
- Code vs digest (the code wins; no conflict found, these are additions the digest did not spell out): `where` on a closed gate carries `error` (= `reason`) besides `reason`; `rebase` returns `base` = the new name and `parent` = the old one; `tick` returns `{state, pinged, bases}`; `list`'s `running` includes pings; the `stalled` flag reaches only the result (the registry entry's `flags` are written at finalise), so while a job runs the text points at `running[].last_event_s_ago`; `usage` does stamp the orchestrator (the digest's list is right); `continue` also refuses at `parallel_cap`; a failed base's name is reusable by `train`.
|
||||
- Gates (G-text items for these files):
|
||||
1. `git grep -n "fork of yourself\|That reading is your trunk\|read the fix's diff\|the code the phase touches" -- plugins/spire/agents/athanor.md`: nothing (exit 1).
|
||||
2. `spire:gremlins` in athanor.md's frontmatter `skills:` (`athanor.md:20`).
|
||||
3. `git grep -n "a fork of the builder" -- plugins/spire/skills/implementation/SKILL.md`: nothing (exit 1).
|
||||
4. `gremlins/SKILL.md` contains `600000` (3 lines), `SPIRE_GREMLIN_CHILD` (1) and `--paths` (3).
|
||||
6. Commands table vs `--help` (`…\scratchpad\gtext6_commands.py`, run with `uv run --no-project python … <worktree>`), output:
|
||||
```
|
||||
SKILL.md Commands table: ['where', 'init', 'train', 'spawn', 'continue', 'rebase', 'wait', 'list', 'usage', 'expire', 'kill', 'tick']
|
||||
--help commands: ['where', 'init', 'train', 'spawn', 'continue', 'wait', 'list', 'expire', 'kill', 'rebase', 'usage', 'tick']
|
||||
duplicates in table: []
|
||||
in table, not in help: []
|
||||
in help, not in table: []
|
||||
EQUAL
|
||||
note: rows of that form anywhere in SKILL.md: 12 (other tables use other first columns)
|
||||
```
|
||||
- A7: `git grep -n "0\.3\.0" -- plugins/spire/skills/gremlins/SKILL.md plugins/spire/agents/athanor.md plugins/spire/skills/implementation/`: nothing (exit 1, run after the commit so the new file is tracked). Also no "Windows-only" in the four files.
|
||||
- No test run (no code change). No live `claude` calls. No processes started.
|
||||
- Deviations from plan:
|
||||
- Beyond §7.1's list, SKILL.md adds: a first-phase call sequence under Commands; the `--phase` paragraph (the helper takes it as optional; the text says always pass it on `spawn` and `rebase`); the due-flag reason vocabulary from `due_flags`; actions for `timeout` and `lost`; "a failed `train` is trained again, a failed `rebase` leaves the old base active"; "no injected report → treat as `ok: false`" (plan §7 3.1 asks for the fallback when `where` fails).
|
||||
- The per-reason actions are a bullet list, not a table: a table whose rows start ``| `model_refused` |`` would match G-text 6's row pattern and break the set check in 3.8.
|
||||
- athanor.md fills two gaps the digest left: a fresh-agent block's red gate gets one fresh fix agent with the log; without a state dir the gate log goes next to the run log; the fallback header line is `Gremlins: none: <reason>` (run-log template, §7.4). The intake step order is now 7 steps (intake, build, gate, check, tests, run log, hand back).
|
||||
- SKILL.md is 120 lines, the low end of the target; most bullets are long lines.
|
||||
- Flagged for review:
|
||||
- SKILL Platforms keeps "(the 0.2.2 shape)" from §7.1: a version number, but naming the old procedure, not tying "Windows-only" to a release (A7's concern). Drop it if the reviewer reads A7 more strictly.
|
||||
- "N1" names two different items, as in the digest: the orphan watchdog (build plan §4 N1) and the `#`-line rule (Phase 2 review N1); "N2" likewise (parallel `--paths`, and notes since `trained_at`). The text labels each where it appears.
|
||||
- The `!` injection with `where` exiting 2 on a closed platform is still untested (digest §12); the text's fallback is "no report → treat as not ok".
|
||||
- `rebase_due`/`retrain_due` arrive on a `spawn` that has already launched; the text says to act "before the next spawn".
|
||||
- The fallback trunk notes: athanor.md says a fresh agent writes them "at the first phase"; later phases on a closed platform keep them as the plan's notes (no update rule given by the digest).
|
||||
- Left for later: 3.6 (`spawning-claude-code.md`, `models.md`), 3.7 (handoff), 3.8 (README row with the A7 wording, manifests, full suite, G-text in full); the Igor text (D4) stays out of scope.
|
||||
- Expected broken: nothing known.
|
||||
- Commits: `a5dfaef` (text), then this note's commit.
