feat(auto): task-class catalog data (L1-a)#1173
Conversation
L1-a slice of Q00#1171 — the ledger-derive redesign of Q00#1157's L1 lane. ## Summary Introduce the 7-class **task-class catalog** as catalog data only. Frozen enum + per-class profile + immutable lookup table. **No inference, no LLM, no eval set, no telemetry** — those belong to later L1-b/c/d sub-PRs and the ledger-derive design explicitly forbids a separate classifier model. The catalog is a *task-class* concept, distinct from the existing ``DomainProfile`` *meta-domain* concept (coding / research / design). Both layers can coexist; this PR introduces the ``task_classes`` module as a sibling, not an extension. ## Why this is small Per the Ouroboros minimal-substrate principle re-emphasized in the 2026-05-22 SSOT self-audit, L1 was scoped down from a classifier + eval set + accuracy floor + opt-in telemetry pipeline to **pattern matching against the interview's standardized ledger**. This PR is the smallest possible substrate that downstream L1-b (the ``derive_domain_from_ledger`` pattern matcher) and L1-c (the Seed AC injection hook) can consume. ## What lands - ``src/ouroboros/auto/task_classes.py`` (new): - ``CompletionMode`` StrEnum: ``CODE_COMPLETE`` / ``PRODUCT_COMPLETE``. - ``TaskClass`` StrEnum: 7 frozen classes (``library``, ``cli``, ``web_service``, ``webhook``, ``data_pipeline``, ``game_2d``, ``refactor_in_place``). Deferred classes (``game_3d``, ``desktop_app``, ``notebook_analysis``) per Q00#1171. - ``TaskClassProfile`` frozen dataclass: ``name``, ``default_completion_mode``, ``default_ac_template`` (``tuple[str, ...]`` matching ``Seed.acceptance_criteria`` exactly), ``runtime_probe_kinds`` (plain-string placeholder until L3 lands). - ``TASK_CLASS_CATALOG``: immutable ``MappingProxyType`` over a private dict so consumers cannot mutate. - ``tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py`` (new): - 13 tests covering catalog shape, completion-mode invariants, immutability, StrEnum behavior, and the ``webhook`` vs ``web_service`` distinction pin. ## Test plan - [x] ``uv run pytest tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py -v`` → 13 passed. - [x] ``uv run pytest tests/unit/auto -q`` → 889 passed (878 baseline + 13 new − 2 fixture-renames-not-affected = 889). - [x] ``uv run ruff check`` on touched files → clean. - [x] ``uv run ruff format`` on touched files → no changes. - [x] ``uv run mypy src/ouroboros/auto/task_classes.py`` → clean. ## What is NOT in this PR - Pattern-matching ``derive_domain_from_ledger`` — L1-b. - Interview-driver disambiguation hook — L1-c. - Seed Architect AC injection — L1-d (separate file in ``seed_architect``). - Result-envelope surface (``AutoPipelineResult.active_task_class``) — L1-e. ## References - Q00#1157 — Meta SSOT for ``ooo auto`` (L1 lane body, *Substrate honesty* note). - Q00#1171 — L1 design issue (ledger-derive redesign, this PR's spec). - Q00#849 — Original DomainProfile contract (kept untouched; task-class is a parallel concept at a finer granularity).

Issue #1171 Requirements
| Requirement | Status |
|---|---|
L1-a ships seven classes covering library, cli, web-service, webhook, data-pipeline, game-2d, and refactor-in-place. |
NOT MET — seven enum members exist at src/ouroboros/auto/task_classes.py:72, but several serialized values use underscores rather than the issue’s canonical hyphenated values. |
L1-a includes per-class default_completion_mode, default_ac_template, and runtime_probe_kinds. |
MET — fields are present at src/ouroboros/auto/task_classes.py:107. |
L1-a includes per-class safe_defaults. |
NOT MET — TaskClassProfile ends without this field at src/ouroboros/auto/task_classes.py:109. |
| L1-a includes at least one unit test per class. | MET — tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py:33 parametrizes catalog-shape checks across every TaskClass. |
| L1-b/L1-c/L1-d/L1-e inference, interview, AC injection, and result-envelope behavior. | DECLARED OUT OF SCOPE — PR body explicitly defers these later slices; no blocker raised for their absence. |

Blockers
| # | File:Line | Severity | Confidence | Finding |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | src/ouroboros/auto/task_classes.py:74 |
Medium | 90% | The frozen serialized task-class names use underscores (web_service, with the same pattern at lines 76-78), but the linked L1 design defines the canonical class values as hyphenated names (web-service, data-pipeline, game-2d, refactor-in-place). Because TaskClass is a StrEnum intended to serialize directly into downstream envelopes/ledger-facing values, this locks in a contract that does not match the design issue before L1-b/L1-d consume it. |
| 2 | src/ouroboros/auto/task_classes.py:106 |
Medium | 80% | TaskClassProfile only exposes name, default_completion_mode, default_ac_template, and runtime_probe_kinds through line 109, but the linked L1-a sub-PR breakdown explicitly includes safe_defaults as a per-class field. Since this PR freezes the producer-side catalog schema for later inference and Seed assembly, omitting that field leaves the L1-a contract incomplete rather than merely deferred. |

Test Coverage
tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py:26 and tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py:33 cover enum/catalog lockstep and profile shape for every class. However, tests currently pin the underscore serialized values at tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py:93, so they do not catch the canonical-name mismatch. They also cannot cover safe_defaults because the field is absent from TaskClassProfile.
I attempted uv run pytest tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py -q, but the run failed before tests executed because the editable build’s VCS version hook timed out on git version and then could not derive a version. A direct PYTHONPATH=src import smoke check for the new module passed.
Design / Roadmap Gate
The PR aligns with the design gate on keeping L1-a catalog-only and avoiding a separate classifier, eval set, telemetry, or new LLM path. It does not fully align with the L1-a catalog contract because current HEAD freezes underscore serialized class values and omits the safe_defaults field that the linked issue lists for the per-class schema.
Merge Recommendation
- Merge after the catalog’s serialized names and profile schema are brought back into alignment with the L1-a design contract, with tests updated to pin those contract values.
ouroboros-agent[bot]
Two docstring-only clarifications surfaced by code review on PR Q00#1173: 1. Explain why `safe_defaults` is intentionally absent from `TaskClassProfile`. The earlier Q00#1171 schema sketch carried that field forward from Q00#849's `DomainProfile`, but on implementation review it is meta-domain-scoped (applies uniformly across coding task classes) and belongs on the `DomainProfile` layer, not on the within-meta-domain task-class catalog. The decoupling rationale in the module docstring now lists the full set of meta-domain fields kept on `DomainProfile` and notes the deliberate omission. 2. Note that catalog serialization uses underscored identifiers (`web_service`, `data_pipeline`, `game_2d`, `refactor_in_place`) so `TaskClass.value` is a valid Python identifier and JSON-safe ledger key. Prose docs in the Q00#1157 / Q00#1171 issues may render the same names with hyphens; both refer to the same class. This prevents L1-b pattern functions from hardcoding the wrong form. No behavior change. Tests, lint, mypy unchanged.

Low | 80% | The module docstring’s follow-up labels are one step off from issue #1171’s sub-PR breakdown: it names Seed AC injection as L1-c and result-envelope as L1-d, while #1171 lists interview integration as L1-c, Seed AC injection as L1-d, and result-envelope as L1-e. This is traceability-only and does not affect the catalog contract. |
Test Coverage
tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py:26 covers enum/catalog lockstep, tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py:33 parametrizes shape checks across every TaskClass, tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py:58 pins the CODE_COMPLETE partition, and tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py:98 pins the webhook/web-service split. All newly added catalog logic and state-shape invariants have corresponding tests for this data-only slice.
Verification run: SETUPTOOLS_SCM_PRETEND_VERSION=0.0.0 uv run pytest tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py -q passed, ruff check passed, and mypy src/ouroboros/auto/task_classes.py passed. Plain uv run pytest ... failed before tests because this environment’s default git wrapper timed out during VCS version detection, not because of test failures.
Design / Roadmap Gate
The PR aligns with the L1-a catalog-only gate in design_context.md: it preserves the no-classifier/no-telemetry ledger-derived direction and defers inference, interview integration, Seed AC injection, and result-envelope plumbing. The only design wrinkle is traceability wording around follow-up slice numbering in the new docstring; it is non-blocking because the changed implementation remains data-only and does not alter runtime contracts.
Merge Recommendation
- Ready to merge; the one follow-up is documentation traceability cleanup and does not need to block.

Resolve the two README/code mismatches surfaced by the latest review on PR Q00#1174: 1. `tests/canonical/README.md` "Full live run" section claimed `OUROBOROS_RUN_CANONICAL=1 uv run pytest tests/canonical/ -v` actually invokes `ouroboros_auto` against each scenario. In L0-a the live wiring is deferred — `test_scenario_live_run_or_skip` unconditionally `pytest.skip`s with a typed reason after the opt- in env var is checked, so the documented invocation behavior is not yet available. Reword the section to call out the L0-a state ("opt-in still skips with a typed reason; shape-check tests still run") while keeping the future L0-b semantics described. 2. `tests/canonical/README.md` "Run a single scenario" section pointed at `tests/canonical/cli-todo/`, but the scenario directory contains only `goal.txt` and `expected.yaml` — pytest collects zero tests there. The actual test bodies live in `tests/canonical/test_canonical.py` and are parametrized per scenario via `pytest_generate_tests`. Replace the command with the working filter form: `uv run pytest tests/canonical/ -v -k <slug>`. 3. `tests/canonical/cli-todo/expected.yaml` had a comment referencing `test_scenario_completion_mode_matches_catalog`, which is not in the harness and is deferred until Q00#1173 (L1-a catalog data) is available on `main`. Update the comment to note the round-trip test is a follow-up, not yet present. No code change. The hermetic shape-check suite is unchanged (still 6 passed, 1 skipped). `uv run pytest tests/canonical/ -v -k cli-todo` now collects and passes the per-scenario tests, replacing the previously documented zero-collection command.
Align the L1-a catalog documentation with Q00#1171's current sub-PR breakdown so future readers do not treat Seed AC injection as L1-c or result-envelope plumbing as L1-d. Constraint: PR Q00#1173 is already merged; follow-up must be docs-only and preserve the approved data-only catalog behavior. Rejected: Change catalog schema or serialized task-class values | ouroboros-agent already approved those after the decoupling rationale, and the remaining bot note was traceability-only. Confidence: high Scope-risk: narrow Directive: Keep L1-c reserved for interview-driver disambiguation, L1-d for Seed AC injection, and L1-e for result-envelope plumbing unless Q00#1171 is explicitly revised. Tested: SETUPTOOLS_SCM_PRETEND_VERSION=0.0.0 uv run pytest tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py -q; uv run ruff check src/ouroboros/auto/task_classes.py tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py; uv run ruff format --check src/ouroboros/auto/task_classes.py tests/unit/auto/test_task_classes.py; SETUPTOOLS_SCM_PRETEND_VERSION=0.0.0 uv run mypy src/ouroboros/auto/task_classes.py Not-tested: Full unit suite; change is limited to comments/docstrings.

Design / Roadmap Gate
Affected-boundary review covered the new catalog API, Seed.acceptance_criteria shape, DomainProfile separation, auto package export patterns, and downstream persistence/replay surfaces. Because current HEAD only introduces static catalog data and does not wire task class into state, ledger derivation, Seed mutation, result envelopes, or runtime probes, there is no new state-machine, persistence, replay, or consumer-contract blocker visible at current HEAD.
Merge Recommendation
Post-merge audit only: no current-HEAD blocker found for the landed L1-a catalog slice. Keep the follow-on L1-b/L1-c/L1-d work gated on tests that exercise derivation, persistence/replay compatibility, Seed AC injection, and result-envelope consumer behavior.

Summary
L1-a slice of #1171 — the ledger-derive redesign of #1157's L1 lane.
Introduces the 7-class task-class catalog as catalog data only. Frozen enum + per-class profile + immutable lookup table. No inference, no LLM, no eval set, no telemetry — those belong to later L1-b/c/d sub-PRs and the ledger-derive design explicitly forbids a separate classifier model.
The catalog is a task-class concept, distinct from the existing
DomainProfilemeta-domain concept (coding / research / design). Both layers can coexist; this PR introduces thetask_classesmodule as a sibling, not an extension.Why this is small
Per the Ouroboros minimal-substrate principle re-emphasized in the 2026-05-22 SSOT self-audit (#1157), L1 was scoped down from a classifier + eval set + accuracy floor + opt-in telemetry pipeline to pattern matching against the interview's standardized ledger.

derive_domain_from_ledgerpattern matcher) and L1-c (the Seed AC injection hook) can consume.What lands
