Add invariant 7 and docs/07 §4c so launch modules (e.g. ad_hoc_command in ansible#227) implement wait in PlatformService for MCP parity. Extend check_action_plugin_invariants to fail on poll loops in action plugins; cross-link PR ansible#227 as the concrete example. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
|
Thanks for the first AWX → SDK consumer parity:
|
| Path | wait: false |
wait: true |
|---|---|---|
| Ansible playbook | ✅ | ✅ (action plugin poll loop) |
MCP / PlatformService.execute() (#206) |
✅ | ❌ returns pending immediately |
MCP discovers tools from module DOCUMENTATION (so wait appears in the tool schema) but calls PlatformService.execute() only — it never imports action plugins. Poll logic in plugins/action/ad_hoc_command.py is therefore Ansible-only.
This is the same class of SDK parity concern raised on #228, but lighter: HTTP stays on the SDK path; only wait semantics are trapped in the action layer.
Recommended direction
- Move wait/poll into
PlatformService.execute()— popwait/interval/timeoutbefore buildingAnsibleAdHocCommand, create via the mixin, then poll with a shared SDK helper (mixin supplies finished/failure rules). - Thin the action plugin — Pattern A is enough once the SDK handles launch + wait; no custom
_wait_for_completion()ortime.sleep()inplugins/action/. - Benefit — one implementation for playbooks, MCP, and future CLI/SDK consumers.
We are documenting this explicitly in #239:
- Invariant 7 in
docs/09-agent-collaboration.md§10 docs/07-adding-resources.md§4c (launch/job modules) — uses this PR as the reference example- CI extension —
make check_action_plugin_invariantswill fail on_wait_for_*/time.sleeppoll loops in action plugins (merged on Document SDK execution invariants and CI guard for action plugins #239)
No need to block merge on #239 landing first — but please align wait with PlatformService before more controller modules copy the poll-in-action-plugin pattern.
Happy to pair on a shared wait_for_completion() shape in platform_manager.py if useful.

Not ready — resolving-agent brief
This review is written so a follow-up agent can implement the fixes without the original review thread. Work on this PR branch (mine/add-ad_hoc_command, head 4d7013c). Do not check out devel and do not "fix" by rewriting the launch module from scratch.
Context already done (do not revert):
- Wait/poll lives in
PlatformService.execute()/DirectHTTPClient.execute(), not in the action plugin (cidrblock Invariant 7). - Model construction uses
dataclasses.fields. from_apimapsexecution_environment.DEFAULT_WAIT_TIMEOUT = 3600is applied whenwait=Trueandtimeoutis omitted.
Fix order (do not skip ahead to tests-only):
- #7 DirectHTTPClient wait (
_find_resourcerequireslistbefore GET-by-id) - #10 Inventory/credential/EE name lookup must hit Controller, not Gateway
- #9
check_modemust not POST a command - #2 Wait-timeout
ValueErrormust still returnid/status - #8 Mock must stay pending across polls (otherwise CI cannot catch #7)
- #5 Unit tests for
execute(wait=True)on both clients - #3 Document the 3600s timeout default
- #12
from_apimust round-tripextra_vars
Decision (do not silently pick): #14 — should execute() raise when wait finishes with failed/error/canceled, or should MCP/SDK callers check status? Ask the PR author / cidrblock if unclear. Default if you must ship: document terminal statuses in RETURN and leave raise-vs-return for a follow-up.
Each numbered finding has an inline comment with a concrete patch and tests. Apply those comments; then run:
python -m pytest tests/unit/plugins/plugin_utils/api/v1/test_ad_hoc_command.py tests/unit/plugins/plugin_utils/manager/test_wait_for_resource_completion.py tests/unit/plugins/plugin_utils/platform/test_direct_client_wait.py -q
# plus any new action-plugin tests you add
ruff check plugins/action/ad_hoc_command.py plugins/plugin_utils/api/v1/ad_hoc_command.py plugins/plugin_utils/manager/platform_manager.py plugins/plugin_utils/platform/direct_client.py tools/mock_gateway_server.pyIf Molecule ad_hoc_command_mock is runnable locally, also run it twice: default connection: local (PlatformService) and with ansible_platform_use_persistent_connection: false (DirectHTTPClient). Sibling mock scenarios already do the second mode.
Do not:
- Move wait/poll back into the action plugin.
- "Fix" #7 only by adding a dummy
listop if_find_resourcestill raises before GET-by-id — align DirectHTTPClient with PlatformService (GET-by-id first). Adding a list op is optional extra, not the root fix. - Treat Molecule green on the current mock as proof wait works.

Blocker: Missing entry in meta/runtime.yml
The collection completeness test is failing because ad_hoc_command is not registered in meta/runtime.yml.
Fix Required
Add ad_hoc_command to meta/runtime.yml in alphabetical order (line 5):
action_groups:
gateway:
+ - ad_hoc_command
- application
- authenticatorWhy This is Required
All modules that extend ansible.platform.auth must be in the action_groups.gateway list so that module_defaults work correctly for users.
After this fix, re-run CI and the test will pass.

Update: Second Blocker Identified
In addition to the meta/runtime.yml issue, the collection integration check is also failing:
❌ Blocker #2: Missing Integration Tests
Expected: tests/integration/targets/ad_hoc_commands_test/
Actual: Directory does not exist
CI Requirement: Integration tests are required for all new modules to validate against live AAP instance.
Options to Fix
Option 1: Add integration tests (Recommended)
Create minimum test structure:
tests/integration/targets/ad_hoc_commands_test/
├── tasks/main.yml # Test playbook
├── aliases # Test metadata
└── meta/main.yml # Dependencies
Option 2: Temporary exemption
- Add to CI exclusion list with justification
- Create follow-up Jira ticket for integration tests
- Document why exemption is needed (e.g., AAP API not stable yet)
Summary of All Blockers
- ❌ Missing
meta/runtime.ymlentry (as noted in previous comment) - ❌ Missing integration tests (this update)
Both must be resolved before merge.
- Register ad_hoc_command in meta/runtime.yml action_groups.gateway - Map its Controller-only endpoint in test_completeness.py's extra_endpoints - Mark it needs_development in test_integration_check.py until fixture modules exist for real integration coverage Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

I opened follow-up PR #245 to extract the common action-plugin setup before migrating this plugin:
Once #245 lands, |
- test_completeness.py: drop the extra_endpoints OPTIONS probe for ad_hoc_command (its OPTIONS response isn't JSON through the Controller proxy in CI, which crashed the whole script) and use the existing no_endpoint_for_module exemption instead, matching the "token" precedent. - platform_manager.py / direct_client.py: only pop wait/interval/timeout as launch-control flags when the target module's dataclass doesn't itself declare those names, so a future module with a real field of the same name (e.g. job_template's own `timeout`) isn't silently dropped.
