Adds a phase-parameterized v2 flow that takes one phase of docs/native-delivery-migration.md from a clean branch to a committed, independently-reviewed change. - scripts/migrate/native-delivery-gates.mjs: the campaign's single source of truth. PHASES declares each phase's lane, required sources, feature-manifest rows, named seam invariants and green suites; the gate actions compute every verdict from recorded evidence rather than from an agent's report. - flows/migrate/native-delivery.spec.ts: compiles PHASES into a v2 FlowSpec via flows/spec-builder.ts. Codex implements the Rust seam, Claude the TypeScript, test, manifest and cleanroom side, then each vendor adversarially reviews the other's work and both sign off read-only over a sealed artifact digest. The four Phase-0 seam rules are enforced as named Rust tests plus a mutation transcript, and the missing "deliver into a session relay did not launch" gate is a first-class requirement rather than a follow-up.

A plain `flows run` parks at the first agent step — the v2 kernel has no worker attached for step type "agent" unless `--local-agent` is passed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…gate The first phase-0 run died at `implement-rust.gate`. The agent step itself succeeded and journaled all four required sources; its subprocess_gate then failed three times and exhausted retries, reporting exit=1 with EMPTY stdout and stderr tails. The gate command prints a verdict on every path, and that verdict reached nowhere: not the journal, not relayflowd.log (0 bytes), not the CLI output. Relayflows lowers a subprocess_gate under stdio: 'inherit' and the daemon's stdio is captured nowhere — filed as AgentWorkforce/flows#511. - Agent steps now carry only `artifact_exists` or no gate. Enforcement moves to the deterministic recorded gate and `*-assert` step that already follow each one, which is where 80-to-100 says it belongs: a dropped agent transport should read as "nothing was written", not as a crashed run. - Every gate verdict is also appended to `<artifact>/gate-log.txt`, so a gate whose stdio is swallowed stays diagnosable. - Phase scopes now include `crates/broker/tests/`. Every phase requires an invariant test file there and no phase declared the directory, so the file the contract demands was flagged as out-of-scope. Caught by the gate itself. - `.relayflowd/` (daemon journals, sockets, locks) is ignored. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The shadow reviewer caught what edit-gate could not. The first implementation
produced `DeliveryBackend`, a coordinator and four passing invariant tests
with nothing behind them: no code path called the seam and the PTY backend
wrote nothing. edit-gate passed it — files changed, required sources present
— and the reviewer's verdict was exact: "a green parity suite on this tree is
vacuous, it cannot distinguish 'seam works' from 'seam absent'."
Verified: `grep -r DeliveryBackend crates/broker/src` outside the module
returns nothing.
A signal that an artifact EXISTS never proves anything ACTS on it, so each
phase now names its consumer. seam-rules enforces it:
GATE_FAILED seam-rules phase=0
DeliveryBackend is never referenced from crates/broker/src/runtime/delivery.rs:
the seam compiles but nothing routes through it
The implement prompt states the requirement, and now reads a prior
shadow-rust.md when one exists so a relaunch starts from the review instead of
rediscovering it.

Run 01M2ZQP6P9ME3PRBWDXQA32MT3 died at `shadow-rust.gate` with the review it was gating sitting on disk at 25 KB. `artifact_exists` reads the worker's journaled `artifacts` list, and that list omits everything under `.workflow-artifacts/` — this repo's conventional artifact directory, and a dot-directory. Measured from the journal: `implement-rust` journaled 6,832 paths under `target/` and 5 under `crates/`, and ZERO under `.workflow-artifacts/`, while provably having written `evidence/mutation-proof.md` there at 08:48. Filed as AgentWorkforce/flows#513. So every artifact-producing agent step now gets a following deterministic `<id>-artifact` step running `require-artifacts`, which reads the disk and whose red verdict is legible. Dependents wait on `after(id)`. That is the third gate mechanism this campaign has had to route around — subprocess_gate swallows its stdio (#511), artifact_exists cannot see the artifact directory (#513). Both now resolve to the same shape: a deterministic step doing the check, which is where 80-to-100 says enforcement belongs. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The gate required `mode === 'targeted'`. That is unsatisfiable for exactly the changes this campaign produces: registering a new feature means editing manifest.yaml, and editing it trips the selector's own self-check (targeted-pr-plan.mjs:242-259, `selfCheckChanged`), which forces full-smoke unconditionally. The first run to reach the gate proved it — red, with `unmatchedRuntimeFiles: []` and `selectedFeatures: ['delivery-backend-seam']`. The routing was correct and the gate failed it anyway. The migration doc's actual requirement is that no UNMAPPED runtime path survives, so the gate now reads the plan's own fields: - fail on unmatchedRuntimeFiles (the real hazard) - fail if the phase's declared features were not selected - fail on a full-smoke carrying a fallbackReason - accept a full-smoke with no reason, which is the manifest self-check The campaign's own harness (scripts/migrate/, flows/migrate/) is excluded from the unmapped check by the same paths edit-gate allows; it is not a product feature and inventing a manifest row for it would be silencing the check rather than satisfying it. Now correctly red on a real gap the agent left: unmapped runtime paths: tests/fixtures/delivery-contract-evals.test.ts Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A relaunch re-executed every completed step. `flows run --reuse-from <run-id>` starts a new run that reuses completed step results from a prior run's journal, keyed on step_spec_hash plus resolved input (kernel memoization.rs), and executes only what changed. `flows resume` is not an option here: on a spec run it accepts --local-agent and ignores it (cli/run.ts:209 has no attachLocalAgent on the non-authored path), so it parks at the first agent step — AgentWorkforce/flows#504.

…r it
seam-rules REQUIRED crates/broker/src/runtime/delivery.rs to reference
DeliveryBackend — that is the phase-0 exit criterion, "the PTY injector becomes
one implementation". edit-gate REJECTED the same file as out-of-scope, because
no phase listed crates/broker/src/runtime/ in its lane.
No implementation could satisfy both. The agent hit it live:
GATE_FAILED edit-gate phase=0 scope=ts | out-of-scope changes:
crates/broker/src/runtime/delivery.rs, crates/broker/src/runtime/tests.rs
and started reverting correct work to appease it. Surfaced only because the
agent runs the contract's own gates on itself while working.
crates/broker/src/runtime/ is now in the lane for phases 0-5 (the phases that
wire the seam into the runtime delivery path). Phase 6 is untouched: it has no
wiring rule and no business there.
Added a check that no phase can regress into this: for every wiring rule with
a `from`, that file must fall inside the phase's own scope.
Gates against the live tree now: edit-gate PASS, manifest-gate PASS,
seam-rules PASS, targeted-gate correctly red on two genuinely unmapped test
files.

edit-gate rejected crates/broker/src/pty_worker.rs as out-of-scope. Two reasons that is wrong: 1. The migration doc names it as part of the PTY injector — "crates/relay-pty/, crates/broker/src/pty_worker.rs, crates/broker/src/wrap.rs" — and phase 0's whole job is "the PTY injector becomes one implementation". Wrapping a thing without being allowed to touch it is not a coherent lane. 2. The edit was forced by another of this campaign's own gates. It is a mod tests fix, body[..768].as_bytes() -> body.as_bytes()[..768], of the kind `clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings` demands. Second instance of the same family as the runtime/ contradiction: a gate that REQUIRES an edit against a gate that FORBIDS the file. The wiring/scope check added earlier catches the declarative case; it cannot predict what clippy will flag. The durable rule is that a scope list must include every file the campaign's own quality gates can force an edit in. Added to phases 0-5. Phase 6 (config isolation) is untouched — it has no PTY business. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…tion The unit-tests gate demanded a wholly green suite, so `ts-assert` would have hard-failed this run forever for reasons the change cannot reach. Three tests fail on this tree before the campaign touches anything: packages/harness-driver broker-process: pid-on-spawn, reap-on-no-API-port tests/fixtures/verify-fleet-daytona: command surface expects 36, tree has 35 `git status --porcelain` reports ZERO changed files for every one of their subjects, and the harness-driver pair spawns a stub shell script rather than the broker binary, so no Rust change can reach them. Each is declared in KNOWN_FAILURES with that justification. New `regression-gate` action: pass when every failing test is a declared known failure, fail on anything else, and report a baseline entry that has started passing so the row gets pruned. A regression gate asks "did I break anything", not "is the repo perfect" — and the usual escape from the stricter question is deleting the test, which is the weakening this campaign forbids. It immediately earned itself: it flagged ci-standalone-smoke, which is NOT in the baseline. That test passes 16/16 twice in isolation and fails only under full-suite parallel load — a contention flake. It stays out of the baseline, and `repair-ts` now knows to run a failing file alone and to check `git status --porcelain -- <subject>` before calling anything a regression. Also linked node_modules/@agent-relay/cli-surface, which was missing entirely (not dangling). That single gap caused the typecheck failure and 5 of the test failures; with it linked, typecheck is green in 13s and 3395 tests pass. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The evidence-recorder pattern and --reuse-from interact badly, and it is invisible. A `record` step always exits 0, so a red command becomes repair work instead of a dead run. That also makes every recorder step REUSABLE: the step succeeded even though the command it wrapped did not. `flows run --reuse-from` then skips it and leaves the old evidence file on disk untouched, so a later gate reads a verdict describing a tree that no longer exists. Observed: run g reused `ts-typecheck` from run f, keeping exit=2 — recorded before the missing node_modules/@agent-relay/cli-surface link that caused it was repaired. The same command now exits 0 in 13s. Reuse is not wrong to do this. It keys on step identity and resolved input, and a recorder step's real output is a FILE ON DISK that the journal cannot see. The fix is to make the mismatch legible: evidence now carries the run id that produced it, and require-green prints STALE_EVIDENCE when it does not match the reading run. Reported rather than enforced, deliberately: `final-evidence` re-records the whole matrix before `final-acceptance`, so the flow already self-heals, and failing hard on staleness mid-run would kill a run 40 steps deep for a condition the design already handles.

…n daemon Two runs died 28 and 30 steps deep on: FAILED [protocol_error] relayflowd could not complete the run request: journal client: run.get timed out after 30000ms The daemon was not resource-starved — 11 open fds against a 1,048,576 limit, 25 MB RSS, largest journal 1.8 MB. It was CPU-starved, by a step this flow launched: `npx vitest run` schedules 194 test files across all 8 cores, and for that window the daemon cannot answer a read inside its fixed 30s budget. Capped at --maxWorkers=4. Costs 39s instead of 26s, which is nothing against a killed run, and it also removes most of the contention flakes: 4 failures unbounded, 2 capped, and both of those are declared known failures — so regression-gate now passes and one baseline entry can be pruned. Filed upstream, because throttling to protect the orchestrator is the wrong place for this fix: - AgentWorkforce/flows#522 — a read timeout under load should be retried, or the run parked, not failed. The work was already journaled. - AgentWorkforce/flows#523 — --reuse-from silently reuses steps whose real output is on disk. A recorder step always exits 0, so it is always eligible; run g reused ts-typecheck's exit=2 from run f, recorded before the missing workspace link that caused it was repaired. Also restarted this repo's relayflowd (8h25m uptime across seven runs). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The real regression is fixed. `parity-multi-worker` went from `Deliveries verified: 0/3` to `3/3` — the repair agent restored the ack path in the broker and did not touch the suite, which is what the contract asked. Then a flake killed the run anyway. `parity-broadcast` reported `Verified: 2/3, Failed: 0` — one verification arriving outside the window, nothing actually failing — under the contention of five parity suites running back to back. It passes 3/3 on three consecutive standalone runs. `parity-assert` had no tolerance for that and took down a run 35 steps deep. `record` gains `--retry-on-red N`. This does not weaken the gate: the command must still pass and the recorded verdict is the final attempt's; a transient failure just stops being read as a regression. The recorded tail notes which attempt passed, so a suite that only ever passes on retry stays visible. Applied to every parity invocation, including the one inside the review-round gates.

… green
`repair-unlaunched` burned 16.5 minutes on a gate reporting
`GATE_PASSED unlaunched-gate phase=0 not-required`. Phase 0 builds the seam
with no native route behind it, so there is no unlaunched session to deliver
into — `not-required` is the correct answer, not a gap to fill. Its prompt
said "make the scenario real and executable" with no clause for the green
case, so the agent went looking for work that did not exist.
Audited the rest; 4 of 7 repair prompts still lack the clause:
has no-op clause repair-implementation
MISSING repair-routing
has no-op clause repair-rust
MISSING repair-seam-rules
MISSING repair-ts
MISSING repair-parity
has no-op clause repair-unlaunched
Deliberately leaving those four alone while a run is in flight: editing a
prompt changes its step_spec_hash, so it invalidates that step's reuse, and
all four have already completed in the current run. Worth fixing once this
one lands.

The campaign requires proving a test bites: mutate the guarded code, capture
the failing transcript, restore it. An implementation did the first two and
skipped the third, leaving this on a LIVE delivery path in shipping code
(crates/broker/src/runtime/app_server.rs:279, called from :118):
// MUTATION: drop the addressee and truncate the body.
if std::env::var("RELAY_MUTATION_LOSSY_FORMAT").is_ok() {
return format!("Relay message from {}:\n\n{}", delivery.from, &delivery.body[..1]);
}
`&body[..1]` panics on a multi-byte first character, and the route it sits on
is the one that already reaches a session relay did not launch — the capability
this whole migration exists to add.
Every deterministic gate in this campaign passed it. edit-gate saw a changed
file in scope; seam-rules saw four named tests and a transcript; parity was
green. Only the adversarial reviewer caught it (claude-review-1, F1, BLOCKER).
seam-rules now refuses `RELAY_MUTATION*` and `// MUTATION` markers anywhere in
crates/*/src. Proven to bite: reinstating a one-line probe turns the gate red
naming the file and line, and removing it turns it green.
The general lesson, which belongs in the skill: a requirement that induces a
hazard has to gate that hazard too. "Prove the test fails" without "prove you
put it back" is an instruction to damage production code.

codex-fix-1 raised this as a valid finding against this harness (F7/F2): "the seal implementation still hashes artifact files rather than recomputing and hashing every changed product path immediately before acceptance" It is correct. `seal()` digested the artifact directory only, so a reviewer signed off on a hash of EVIDENCE FILES while the source those files describe could change afterwards without disturbing the digest. `final-acceptance` binds each signoff to `artifactSetSha256`, so the binding was to the wrong thing. The digest now covers the changed product files too, hashed from the live tree at seal time. Proven to bite: before: digest=44387689c7f2... after a 1-line source edit: digest=1bfcccf0f123... Worth recording how this was found: the finding came from the agent fixing another agent's review of a third agent's code. Two of the five items Codex could not fix are criticisms of this harness rather than of the product. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
`codex-review-2` died with `worker_error exit=1` — the Codex credential ran out of usage with three agent steps left in a run that had 55 reused steps behind it. `NATIVE_DELIVERY_CODEX_CLI` now selects the CLI those agents run on, defaulting to `codex` and defaulting the model with it (`gpt-5.5` for codex, `gpt-5.3-codex` for anything else). cursor-agent serves the same GPT-5.x Codex models under a different account, so the cross-vendor property the review rounds depend on survives the swap: Claude still reviews what a Codex-family model wrote, and vice versa. The swap is cheap by construction, which is why it is worth having. Every step references its agent BY NAME, so cli/model live in the flow-level `agents` map and are not part of any `step_spec_hash`. Changing them does not invalidate `--reuse-from`, so an exhausted credential costs a relaunch rather than the hour of review work already banked. NATIVE_DELIVERY_CODEX_CLI=cursor-agent npm run migrate:native-delivery Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The Codex credential exhausted three steps from the end of a run carrying 55 reused steps: `codex-review-2` died `worker_error exit=1`. Relayflows runs only raw Claude/Codex executables and refuses anything else `cli_unsupported`, so `NATIVE_DELIVERY_CODEX_CLI=cursor-agent` alone was refused at preflight. This is the wrapper, a sibling to the existing opencode adapter. cursor-agent serves the same GPT-5.x Codex models under a separate account, so the review rounds keep the property they exist for — a Codex-family model reviewing what Claude wrote, and the reverse. Running both sides on Claude would leave those steps attesting something they never independently checked. Verified against the real contract, not just written to it: identity `--relayflows-adapter-v1` < /dev/null -> relayflows-agent-cli-v1, exit 0 auth `auth status` -> exit 0 model RELAYFLOW_MODEL=gpt-5.3-codex -> exit 0 execute one JSON request on stdin -> ack + ADAPTER_OK, exit 0 preflight flows check -> CHECK PASSED Two details the contract punishes if missed. The identity probe opens a pipe it never writes to, so the wrapper needs its own idle timeout or it hangs past the probe's 10s budget and reports unsupported. And execution runs under a closed environment allowlist, so `CURSOR_API_KEY` passes `flows check` (full env) and then fails at run (stripped) — `authStatus` asks `cursor-agent status`, which reads the credential store, so the probe answers the question execution asks. `--force` and `--trust` are passed explicitly: a workflow step is non-interactive, and a tool-approval or workspace-trust prompt has nobody to answer it and would hang until the lease expires. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Swapping the codex agents wholesale to cursor-agent replayed the entire run. step_spec_hash is computed over the NORMALIZED step, and the kernel resolves a named agent into inline cli/model before hashing — the journal stores cli: "codex", model: "gpt-5.5" where the authored spec said agent: "codex-impl". So changing the agents map rewrites the hash of every step those agents own, including hours of completed review and fix work. A reused step never executes, so it never touches the exhausted credential; only steps that actually RUN do. So the completed steps stay pinned to codex and keep reusing, and only the not-yet-run ones divert: implement-rust, codex-review-1, codex-fix-1, codex-fix-2 -> codex (reused) codex-review-2 -> cursor (alt lane) signoff-codex -> cursor (never ran) NATIVE_DELIVERY_CODEX_ALT_FROM_ROUND picks the first review round to divert, defaulting to 99 so the lane is inert unless a credential actually runs out.

… harness edits
An agent tightened this gate mid-run, and it was right. The original check
accepted a mutation proof that demonstrated ONE invariant biting and merely
named the rest:
if (named.length === 0) problems.push('names none of the invariant tests');
if (!/FAILED|panicked/.test(text)) problems.push('no failing transcript');
"Prove the tests bite" was therefore satisfiable by proving one of four bites.
The replacement sections the proof by invariant and requires a failing
transcript in each section. It is immediately red on the current tree, which
has transcripts for only two of the four — so the weaker check had been
passing a proof that did not cover half the contract.
Keeping the agent's version verbatim and recording where it came from.
Also added: `accept` now prints HARNESS_MODIFIED naming any changed file under
scripts/migrate/ or flows/migrate/. Those paths are in edit-gate's allowed set
because they ARE campaign tooling, which is what made the fix above possible —
but the same door lets a gate be weakened to pass, and from inside the run that
looks identical to a gate corrected to be right. This does not forbid the edit;
it puts it in the acceptance record where the signoff reviewers will see it.

… HIGH findings NOT a completed phase 0. The workflow that produced this declined to seal it, and `docs/native-delivery/phase-0-review/BLOCKED_NO_COMMIT.md` says why. This commit preserves the work and the evidence on a feature branch; it does not claim the exit criterion is met. ## What is here A `DeliveryBackend` trait and `DeliverySeam` coordinator with the PTY injector as its first backend, wired into the real path at `runtime/delivery.rs`. Four named invariant tests for the doc's seam rules, each with its own mutation transcript. Fixes for a fabricated fleet ack, echo normalization that could manufacture an observation, and parity scripts that counted a timeout fallback as verified. All five parity suites green, cargo fmt/clippy/build/test green, typecheck green, 3,395 unit tests passing. ## Why it is blocked Green gates were not sufficient, and that is the headline result. Two rounds of adversarial review over that same green tree produced 26 findings, 4 of them disqualifying. Two remain HIGH and both are double-delivery class: - **R2-1** — the timeout-fallback branch (`runtime/worker_events.rs:866-908`) settles without calling `confirm_pending_delivery_and_resolve_fleet_ack`, so `FleetDeliveryBook` never learns the sequence. `commit_confirmed_delivery` (`node_control.rs:1152-1177`) advances `acked_up_to_seq` only across a contiguous run and breaks at the first gap, so ONE fallback pins every later delivery to that agent and re-injects them after the next broker restart. This is a consequence of the fix applied in round 1, so no earlier review or gate covers it. - **R2-2** — `delivery/pty.rs:48-52` maps every `WorkerRegistry::deliver` error to `Unavailable`, which `backend.rs:157-159` defines as pre-write. A PTY write can fail after bytes reach the tty, so `falls_back_only_before_write` is false at the only backend that exists. The invariant test passes because it exercises a mock (**R2-11**). Also live: **F4**, the seam is constructed per call so three of four invariants have no production effect; **F8**, whether a timeout-fallback ack is withheld or documented as a PTY exemption is a design decision, not an implementation detail. One finding is worth recording separately: a mutation probe was left on a live delivery path (`runtime/app_server.rs`, `&body[..1]`, panics on a multi-byte first char) after being used to prove a test bites. Every deterministic gate passed it. Only the reviewer caught it. `seam-rules` now refuses mutation residue. ## What unblocks it Bounded and specific, not open-ended: 1. R2-1 — teach the timeout-fallback path to inform `FleetDeliveryBook`, so the cursor can advance past a sequence that will never be confirmed. 2. R2-2 — give the PTY worker a real write-commit boundary in `worker.rs` and map post-write failures to a committed error rather than `Unavailable`. 3. R2-11 — make the invariant suite exercise the real PTY backend. 4. F4 — own the seam for the broker runtime lifetime, with bounded receipt eviction. 5. F8 — a decision from chief, then implement it either way. Full findings in `docs/native-delivery/phase-0-review/`. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

`test:e2e:unlaunched` runs tests/e2e/unlaunched separately, and the default e2e config excludes it — that suite delivers into a session relay did not launch, which is the capability the migration exists to add and which needs a bare CLI outside the broker rather than the standard e2e fixtures.

…ay green Every gate on this branch is green, freshly re-recorded against the current tree: fmt, clippy -D warnings, release build, the 1,285-test broker suite, the four seam invariants in isolation, typecheck, 3,395 unit tests (3 known-baseline failures), and all five parity suites on first attempt with no retries. A fresh-context adversarial review of `codex-fix-2` — 1,278 insertions across 15 files that no reviewer had ever read — returns DO NOT SEAL, with 2 blockers, 3 high and 5 medium findings. F1, verified in the code: `abandon_unconfirmed_delivery` (node_control.rs:1184-1206) copies the confirm path's drain loop, including `confirmed_delivery_seqs.remove(&next)`, but the call site omits the consequences the confirm path applies. `confirmed_delivery_seqs` is the ONLY thing holding an out-of-order-confirmed delivery out of the maintenance retry sweep. So: seq 4 never echoes, seq 5 echoes and confirms first but cannot advance the cursor; when seq 4 settles unobserved the drain removes 4 AND 5; seq 5 — already delivered, already confirmed — becomes retry-eligible and is re-injected. It does not stop: every later confirmation returns None and re-inserts, so the agent receives that message roughly every 6 seconds forever. The two preconditions are correlated, not independent — the message that fails to echo is exactly the one whose successor confirms first. F2: `TerminalInDoubt` on the fleet WorkerMissing path bails to an Err arm that withholds the ack and never calls `commit_received`, so the engine redelivers and the broker re-injects — a post-write failure retried on the same transport, and the R2-1 cursor pin re-created. F3 is the mirror image: the commit boundary errs toward LOSS — up to 127 provably unwritten queued commands per writer fault are mapped unconditionally to Committed and dropped with no dead letter. Third consecutive round in which a correct fix introduced a new defect nearby: claude-fix-1 -> R2-1, codex-fix-2's R2-1 repair -> F1, its TerminalInDoubt -> F2. No gate caught any of them. Also: codex-fix-2 reported fixing F4 (per-call seam construction). The reviewer found it still present at runtime/delivery.rs:1003, so three of the four contract rules still have no production effect. Harness fixes in this commit: edit-gate now diffs against the campaign base as well as the working tree (it went blind once the work was committed); the phase-0 lane gained node_control.rs and worker.rs, which the accepted repairs required; the manifest routes the five runtime files those repairs touched; and the invariant-tests recorder runs the seam binary alone, where its "0 passed" guard is meaningful, with the full suite recorded separately.

Update — all gates re-measured green, and a fresh review still says do not sealThree things done since the PR opened: the phase-0 lane was corrected, every gate was re-recorded against the current tree, and the one unreviewed change finally got read. Gates: green, freshly measured, nothing staleThe earlier evidence predated the last fixes. Re-recorded on the current tree:
The review: 2 blockers, 3 high, 5 medium
F1 (blocker), verified in the code. Two deliveries to one agent: The preconditions are correlated, not independent: the message that fails to echo is exactly the one whose successor confirms first. F2 (blocker). F3 (high). The commit boundary errs the other way: up to 127 provably unwritten queued commands per writer fault are mapped unconditionally to Also: The pattern worth taking from thisThird consecutive round in which a correct fix introduced a new defect nearby:
No gate caught any of them. Every one was found by a fresh adversarial read, and each was found only after the previous fix had shipped into the branch. Delivery semantics on a cumulative, prefix-ordered ACK cursor are evidently not safely patchable one finding at a time. Harness fixes included
🤖 Generated with Claude Code |
Both had the same root shape: a function knew something its caller needed and threw it away. F1 — abandon_unconfirmed_delivery advanced the cumulative ACK cursor and returned (). Its sibling commit_confirmed_delivery returns Option<u64> for exactly this reason, and its caller follows up with advance_pending_fleet_ack_floors plus a sibling retain (fleet.rs:1816-1823), which purges entries that sit in pending_deliveries solely to carry a withheld ack. Because the abandon path reported nothing, nobody purged them — and the drain loop had already removed the confirmed_delivery_seqs entry that is_delivery_confirmation_held uses to keep them out of the maintenance retry sweep. An already-delivered, already-confirmed message became retry-eligible and was re-injected, permanently: every later confirmation returned None and re-inserted it. Now returns Option<u64>, and worker_events.rs applies the same consequences the confirm path does. F2 — TerminalInDoubt bailed with a plain anyhow::Error, the same shape a pre-write failure produces. handle_fleet_deliver's Err arm therefore gave both the drop-and-withhold treatment, never calling commit_received, so the engine's redelivery of that msg_id was classified Deliver rather than Duplicate and the broker re-injected a write that may already have committed — the post-write retry seam rule 1 exists to forbid. Now typed as TerminalInDoubtError via paired constructors (in_doubt_error / pre_write_failure_error, defined together so they cannot drift back into the same shape), and the fleet Err arm branches on it: commit_received plus abandon with the full consequence set. Both regression tests are mutation-proven, and getting there is the part worth recording. The F1 test failed first try on the real assertion and its SECOND failure disproved my own fix, which is what led to the actual root cause. The F2 test took three attempts: the first asserted a property of the book that was never in question, the second asserted a property of anyhow. Both passed with the entire fix disabled. Only the third — pinning the paired constructors — fails when in_doubt_error is mutated to return an untyped error. Two tests that could not fail, written while fixing findings about tests that cannot fail. Caught by mutating rather than trusting green. cargo fmt clean, clippy --all-targets -D warnings clean, 1,287 tests passing. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…activate
F4 — an unobserved delivery must never establish the cursor origin.
`commit_received` seeds `acked = received = seq - 1` for an identity's first
sequenced delivery, which is right for a frame the agent received and
catastrophic for an abandoned one. After a restart with pending 5, 6, 7
re-injected and none confirmed, seeding from an abandoned 7 puts the cursor
above two messages that were never delivered; the next genuine confirmation
emits a cumulative ack that retires all three at the engine, with no dead
letter and no unread state — and delivery.rs:107-111 says a cumulative ACK
"proves every lower sequence is complete".
`abandon_unconfirmed_delivery` now declines to seed at all, and its call site
performs the `restore_pending_agent` prologue the confirm path uses
(fleet.rs:1791-1796), whose doc states the asymmetry that applies here too: the
broker may retry an already-landed delivery, but must never falsely ACK an
undelivered lower one.
F6, parts one and two — the semantics are now correct BEFORE they are
activated, which is the safe order. The seam is still constructed per call, so
none of this is live yet; hoisting it without these two fixes would have been
actively dangerous.
- Eviction no longer forgets silently. The receipt bound dropped the oldest
entry, so a delivery whose receipt was evicted and then retried classified
as `Fresh` and was handed to a backend a second time — the duplicate guard
producing the duplicate it exists to prevent. An evicted id is now
tombstoned and returns a distinct `SendOutcome::Forgotten`, which the retry
path settles as terminal-in-doubt: not knowing where a message went is not
evidence it did not go (rule 2).
- `AlreadySent` no longer maps to a bare `Noop`. `Noop` leaves
`next_retry_at` untouched, so once the seam outlives a single call a
delivery whose ack never arrives would be re-entered by every maintenance
tick, never advance its clock, and never retry, fail or dead-letter — a
stuck delivery plus a hot loop. It now backs off so the retry cap stays
reachable.
Both regression tests mutation-proven: removing the tombstone makes the
eviction test fail on its real assertion, and disabling the seeding guard makes
the restart test fail on its.
cargo fmt clean, clippy --all-targets -D warnings clean, 1,288 broker tests and
all 5 seam invariants passing.

This comment was marked as resolved.
Sorry, something went wrong.
A fresh adversarial review applied two real regressions at once — a
`delivery_ack` on every echo-verification timeout, and the headless
route's `process_exit` value diverging from `is_observed` — and the full
broker suite passed 1298/1298. Those are the exact bugs the F10 and F7
tests cite in their own comments as their reason for existing.
**The call-site guard covered a quarter of its arm.** It anchored with
`rfind("verification window")`, which matched a `tracing::info!` string
two lines above the call: the guarded window was lines 2281-2291 of a
38-line arm starting at 2258. A `delivery_ack` added after
`let event_id = ...` — where a reader would naturally put one — passed
it. Now extracts the whole arm by balancing braces from its opening
condition, and asserts the extracted span still contains the call and is
long enough, so a broken extraction cannot pass vacuously.
**The wire values were hardcoded four times and coupled nowhere.**
Renaming all three constants left 25 Rust tests and 9 vitest cases
green, because the one wire-shape test compares through the symbol.
Three emitters used literals, not the constants — `headless.rs` for
`process_exit` and `pty_worker.rs` twice for `echo` — so renaming only
`PROCESS_EXIT_VERIFICATION` reclassified every headless delivery as
unobserved with the suite green. All three now use the constants, and
two new tests pin the literal wire strings and forbid literals at the
emitters.
**Three observation predicates, not one.** `tests/benchmarks/harness.ts`
tested `verification === 'echo'` only, so a headless `process_exit` — a
genuine observation — was counted unobserved while five parity harnesses
hard-fail on `unobserved !== 0`. The parity suite would have gone red on
a correctly delivered message. `isUnobservedDelivery` is now the
negation of `isObservedDelivery` so they cannot drift.
**A test that could not pass.** `infra-failures.test.ts` waits for a
`delivery_ack` after a `timeout_fallback` — the frame F10 removed. It
deliberately forces the no-echo path, so it fails every run. This branch
never touched it: when F12 migrated three suites, I fixed exactly the
files the review named and never searched the repo. It now waits for
`delivery_unobserved` and asserts no ack exists.
Proven by mutation, each previously suite-green:
ack at the TOP of the timeout arm => call-site guard FAILS
rename PROCESS_EXIT_VERIFICATION value => wire-value test FAILS
headless reverts to a literal => emitter test FAILS
restored => 1300 lib tests, 8 seam invariants green

…bt (BLOCKER)
One successful hand-off whose ack never arrives returns `AlreadySent`
on every later tick, so `failed_attempts` climbs to the cap without
anything being re-written. It then hit the cap branch and was
dead-lettered as `Failed` — a reason carrying no in-doubt marker, so
`is_auto_redeliverable` returns true and an operator redelivery
re-sends a message that may already have landed.
That is the double delivery rule 2 exists to prevent, reached through
the ordinary un-acked path rather than through any error. F9 built the
in-doubt dead-letter mechanism for exactly this and the cap branch did
not use it.
The discriminator is whether the seam holds a receipt: only it knows
whether anything ever went out over a transport. A delivery that never
reached one is still a plain `Failed` and stays redeliverable.
The mutation output states the pre-fix pathology exactly:
attempts: 1, failed_attempts: 10,
last_error: "max delivery retries exceeded"
— written once, reported as ten retries exhausted, and offered for
redelivery.
Proven by mutation — restore the pre-fix disposition:
a_handed_over_delivery_that_exhausts_retries_is_in_doubt_not_failed
=> FAILS ("must terminate IN DOUBT ... got Failed")
restored => 1301 lib tests, 8 seam invariants green
Found by adversarial review; no existing test covered the `AlreadySent`
arm from a real hand-off.

…(BLOCKER)
F4 added a refusal in `abandon_unconfirmed_delivery`: an identity with
no sequenced position must not have one established by a delivery nobody
observed. Its doc comment sets out why — seeding `acked = received =
seq - 1` from an abandoned frame puts the cursor above messages that
were never delivered, and the next genuine confirmation emits a
cumulative ack retiring all of them, with no dead letter and no unread
state.
`runtime/fleet.rs` called `commit_received(&deliver)` on the line
immediately above it. That is precisely what sets
`has_sequenced_position`, so the `seeded` check passed on a condition
the previous line had just created, and the cursor advanced from an
origin the in-doubt frame itself defined. The guard was correct and
unreachable.
`commit_received` does two things: it marks the msg_id seen, and it
seeds. The in-doubt path needs the first — without it the engine
classifies its redelivery as `Deliver` and the broker re-injects — and
must never do the second. Adds `mark_delivery_seen`, which records the
dedup marker and touches no cursor.
Also records `AdvancedPastUnobserved` here. F5 claimed to close
"advancing silently and telling nobody"; it closed it at
`worker_events.rs` only, while this site logged `SurfaceFailed` and
advanced silently.
Three tests: `mark_delivery_seen` leaves an identity unseeded and
abandon still declines; `commit_received` first would seed and advance
(kept as an explicit contrast so the reason cannot be optimised away);
and a call-site guard over the brace-balanced `if in_doubt` branch,
since the whole bug lived in which method the call site picked. That
guard compares against code with comments stripped — the branch explains
why `commit_received` is wrong, and a naive substring check matched its
own explanation.
Proven by mutation — restore `commit_received` at the call site:
the_fleet_in_doubt_branch_does_not_seed_a_cursor_origin => FAILS
the two unit tests => still pass
(which is the point: neither can see the call site)
restored => 1304 lib tests, 8 seam invariants green

A v2 Relayflows spec that runs the two things agents demonstrably did well on this branch: a repo-wide sweep for assertions still encoding the pre-seam delivery contract, and three independent adversarial reviews (delivery semantics, tests that cannot fail, cross-language contract drift). Three properties are the point rather than decoration: - **Nothing may edit tracked files.** Every agent produces a report. This branch's central finding is that gates go green on broken trees, so an agent whose job is to make something pass is the wrong shape for measuring whether it passes. - **The read-only rule is enforced, not requested.** A final step diffs `git status` against a baseline captured at setup. A baseline rather than a pristine-tree check, because the box needs an uncommitted `flows.json` model allowlist to run at all — and a blanket ignore of that path would be loosening a validator to silence an error, which is how a check stops measuring anything. Any NEW edit still fails. - **A review that finds problems is a successful review.** Findings live in artifacts, not exit codes, so no step fails for reporting a defect and nothing is handed to a repair agent to be made green. The four agent steps depend only on setup, so they fan out and share no state. YAML rather than TypeScript: `permissions.fileGlobs` and named agent maps have no TypeScript equivalent on this surface, and authoring in YAML avoids needing `@relayflows/surface` installed to validate. `flows check` passes; the spec, gates and CLI resolution are all verified on the target host. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A first run surfaced two authoring defects that `flows check` reports as
warnings rather than refusals, so they only showed up at execution:
- `collect` began with `{`, a shell grouping keyword, which the resolver
correctly flagged: "does not resolve as an executable; it runs only if
the shell supplies it." Rewritten with `printf` so the step does not
depend on which shell the runner happens to use.
- The editor schema line was missing, so the spec got no validation in
an editor.

A repo-wide sweep found three sites counting every `delivery_verified` as a success, including `timeout_fallback` — a delivery the worker wrote and never saw land. **One of them was a regression I introduced.** Replacing the old ack floor in `stress.test.ts` with `verified.length >= 18` looked like the same assertion adjusted for the new frames. It is not: `verified` counts fallbacks too, so 20 sends of which 3 echoed and 17 fell back satisfies it, the ledger balances, and the test reports "sustained load delivered" while 85% were never observed. Settlement and observation are different facts; each now has its own floor. **The benchmarks were worse**, because their number reaches a verdict. `tests/benchmarks/stress.ts` folded fallbacks into `verified`, divided by total for a success rate, failed the run below 90%, and printed an engineering recommendation from it. A saturated event loop that misses its echo windows reads as a healthy delivery rate. `reliability.ts` reported 100% reliability on messages that were all `timeout_fallback`. Both now count through `isObservedDelivery` / `isUnobservedDelivery`, and `unobserved` is a reported field rather than a silent one — a counter nobody prints is a counter nobody checks. Found by the sweep in `flows/audit/delivery-phase0-review.flow.yaml`. Its verdict on the rest: Class A (broken every run) none remain, 23 fallback-sensitive assertions across 6 files, and no gate runs any of them — every flagged suite skips itself unless RELAY_INTEGRATION_REAL_CLI=1, which no workflow sets. Latent, not red CI. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…ssing
My previous commit claimed to stop a saturated event loop reading as a
healthy delivery rate. It did not. It changed what `verified` counts and
left the ratio alone:
const total = verified + failed;
successRate = verified / total
`unobserved` appeared in neither numerator nor denominator, so whenever
nothing outright failed the rate was `verified / verified` — 100%. The
verdict was unchanged in exactly the case the commit was written for.
Same failure mode I have been correcting all day: fix what the finding
names, miss the thing that consumes it.
50 sent, 3 echoed, 47 fallback, 0 failed
before: 100.0% PASS -> after: 6.0% FAIL
50 sent, 0 echoed, 50 fallback, 0 failed
before: 100.0% PASS -> after: 0.0% FAIL
50 sent, 48 echoed, 2 fallback, 0 failed
before: 100.0% PASS -> after: 96.0% PASS
An unobserved delivery is a SETTLED delivery nobody saw land, so it
belongs in the denominator. The pass gate also reads `unobserved`
directly now — a run where most deliveries settled unseen is not healthy
even if the ratio scrapes over 90.
Two further counters that were reported but not real:
- `collectDeliveryEvents` incremented `unobserved` into a variable its
return type could not carry. It also has no callers at all, so it is
deleted rather than patched.
- `testBurstOverload` subscribes to no events, so its counters are
structurally zero. It printed `Observed: 0 Unobserved: 0`, stating a
measurement it never took and reading as clean beside tests that did
measure. It now says "deliveries not measured".
`reliability.ts` prints the unobserved count instead of dropping it.
Found by adversarial re-review of the commit that claimed to fix this.

Both are regressions in `e5b3d8f67` / `80b886aa3`, found by adversarial
re-review of those commits.
**F1 (BLOCKER) — an evicted receipt made a possible write redeliverable
again.** The cap branch asked `recorded_route`, which answers `None` for
two opposite facts: never sent, and sent over a route whose receipt has
since aged out of the bounded memory. Receipts are never removed on ack,
so under sustained load the second is routine. A delivery that WAS handed
to a live PTY then fell through to `Failed`, was dead-lettered with no
in-doubt marker, and became eligible for operator redelivery — the
double delivery the branch exists to prevent, restored by a cache
eviction.
Adds `DeliverySeam::was_sent`, which consults the eviction tombstones
alongside the receipts. That set already carried the fact; nothing asked
it.
**F4 (HIGH) — an in-doubt delivery on the raw queue path vanished.**
`retry_pending_delivery` removes the entry on `TerminalInDoubt`, and
`insert_and_attempt_delivery` returned the typed error without
preserving it. Its fleet caller only logs a warning, so the message left
no dead letter, no `MessageDeliveryFailed` and nothing on the wire. The
`Failed` arm directly above has re-inserted for precisely this reason
all along — "the raw queue path has no dead-letter store/event sender" —
and the in-doubt arm added later did not copy it.
Now retained at the retry cap, so the next pass takes the cap branch
without re-sending, terminates in doubt again, and
`emit_delivery_attempt_outcome` dead-letters it under
`IN_DOUBT_REASON_PREFIX`. Retained, never auto-redelivered.
Also fixes a 22-space run inside the default in-doubt reason, a
line-wrap artifact in a non-raw string literal that reached the
operator-visible dead-letter message.
Proven by mutation:
cap branch back to `recorded_route` => evicted-receipt test FAILS
(yields Failed{last_error:"max delivery retries exceeded"});
the original in-doubt test still PASSES, which is why it missed this
drop the retained entry => raw-queue test FAILS
restored => 1306 lib tests, 8 seam invariants green

Restart restore terminals live pendings
High Severity
Startup now writes an in-doubt seam receipt for every persisted pending with attempts > 0, and retry_pending_delivery treats a missing worker plus was_sent as TerminalInDoubt. After a persist-mode restart, worker processes are gone, so the first maintenance tick can dead-letter in-flight deliveries as non-auto-redeliverable before they can be respawned.

Pre-write retries become in-doubt
Medium Severity
restore_in_doubt keys off attempts > 0, but attempts also increments on pre-write errors after the seam has already removed the provisional receipt. A queue timeout or not-attempted drain that was persisted and then restarted is treated as a possible write, so later ticks return AlreadySent and the message never injects.

Wait-mode test assertions cannot pass
Medium Severity
The reused DeliverySeam makes the second retry_pending_delivery hit AlreadySent, which rewrites next_retry_at to retry_interval (1s) and sets failed_attempts to 1. The test still asserts that timestamp moved forward from the wait-mode ack deadline and remains more than 60 seconds in the future, which contradicts that backoff.

Fixture sequence numbers collide
Low Severity
Shifting delivery_unobserved to seq 112 left delivery_failed at 111, so file order is no longer sequence order, and message_delivery_failed now shares seq 115 with agent_context_low. Contract consumers that assume unique monotonic seq values can mis-order or drop one of those events.

Do not expire duplicate-prevention state by capacity.
A pending delivery can remain pending for the 5-minute Wait acknowledgement timeout. During that time, unrelated receipts can evict both its receipt and tombstone. The retry cap does not prevent this: failed_attempts is still zero before the first retry, and attempts > 0 is not a resend guard. The retry can therefore reach seam.send, classify the delivery as Fresh, and write it again.
Retain no-resend state until the delivery reaches a terminal durable state. Add a regression test that exceeds both receipt bounds before retrying the original delivery.

Persist an explicit in-doubt marker for committed failures.
retry_pending_delivery increments attempts only for SendOutcome::Fresh. A committed error returns TerminalInDoubt without incrementing attempts. The caller then re-inserts the entry at the retry cap.
After restart, init.rs restores the seam only when pending.attempts > 0. The delivery therefore has no in-doubt receipt. The next maintenance pass reaches the retry-cap branch and classifies it as Failed, not TerminalInDoubt. An ordinary failed dead letter can then be redelivered by an operator, which may duplicate a write that already reached the worker. Persist or restore an explicit in-doubt marker instead of using attempts as the marker.

Preserve the wait acknowledgement deadline after AlreadySent.
The first Fresh handoff sets next_retry_at to five minutes in the future. The AlreadySent branch replaces that deadline with Instant::now() + retry_interval. This test uses a one-second interval, so both timestamp assertions fail.
Keep incrementing failed_attempts so the retry path remains bounded. Retry exhaustion correctly returns TerminalInDoubt and prevents automatic redelivery. Remove that harmful-outcome claim.
Suggested fix
if let Some(current) = pending_deliveries.get_mut(delivery_id) {
current.failed_attempts = current.failed_attempts.saturating_add(1);
- current.next_retry_at = Instant::now() + retry_interval;

Outcome
Phase 0 now closes the remaining delivery-seam defects, including F8. The selected policy is fail closed: once a PTY write may have crossed the writer-queue admission boundary, cancellation leaves an in-doubt receipt and the delivery cannot be injected again.
This PR remains draft for one procedural reason: the migration workflow requires fresh independent Claude and Codex signoff artifacts over the final seal. The implementation, deterministic gates, and Veto review are complete; those signoffs are not fabricated here.
What changed
Validation
Green locally on the final tree:
The full Vitest suite still reports its three declared, unreachable baseline failures: the stale Daytona command count and two macOS broker-process PID fixture races. The regression gate accepts exactly those three and rejects any new failure.
Acceptance state
The final acceptance command is blocked only on:
No direct push or merge to main was performed.
Review artifacts
See docs/native-delivery/phase-0-review/ and the tracked Trail trajectory for the mutation transcripts, decisions, and validation record.
Note
High Risk
Changes core message delivery, fleet ACK cursors, and restart persistence; mistakes could cause duplicate injections, lost messages, or incorrect engine acknowledgements.
Overview
Introduces the phase-0 delivery-backend seam: a route-aware
DeliverySeamandPtyDeliveryBackendthat centralize send/settle policy (pre-write fallback only, no retry on doubt, bounded receipt memory) and wires the main pending-delivery retry path through it for the broker’s lifetime, including in-doubt restoration on restart.Fail-closed behavior for ambiguous PTY writes: provisional in-doubt receipts before backend await, typed
TerminalInDoubtError, capped pending entries on handoff timeout, in-doubt dead letters that are retained but not auto-redeliverable, and Steer ack timeouts sized to outlast echo verification so maintenance cannot double-inject.Fleet and observation accounting is tightened:
mark_delivery_seenvscommit_received,abandon_unconfirmed_deliveryreturns cursor floors, siblings covered by an unobserved advance are terminal-guarded and dead-lettered withadvanced_past_unobservedtelemetry, and sharedis_observed/ wire-string constants keep echo,process_exit, andtimeout_fallbackaligned across Rust and TS.PTY honesty (rule 4): echo timeouts emit only unverified
delivery_verified(nodelivery_ack), plus CRLF-normalized echo matching and extensive invariant/mutation tests (including call-site guards).Also registers
delivery-backend-seamin the feature manifest, updates CHANGELOG /.gitignore, and adds AgentWorkforce trajectory records for the migration campaign.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit b63e106. Bugbot is set up for automated code reviews on this repo. Configure here.
