[Self-Heal] Add self-scheduling auto-repair workflow#181
Conversation
This commit introduces a proactive and reactive self-healing pipeline that detects codebase drift, applies fixes safely within defined boundaries, and generates PRs for human review. - Sets up a 6-step idempotent repair pipeline (`scripts/self_heal.py`) - Implements telemetry-based dynamic scheduling (`scripts/compute_schedule.py`) - Configures GitHub Actions for execution (`.github/workflows/self-heal.yml`) - Adds gating mechanics (`scripts/gates.py`) to prevent secrets or unauthorized modifications Co-authored-by: google-labs-jules[bot] <161369871+google-labs-jules[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>

Code Review
This pull request implements an adaptive self-healing automation system to manage codebase drift, linting, and asset regeneration. It includes a dynamic scheduling script based on git telemetry, a project health check utility, and a six-step repair pipeline. Review feedback recommends improving script robustness and portability by adding missing dependencies like pip-tools, standardizing YAML library usage, and replacing non-portable which commands. Further suggestions include validating workflow file structures to prevent runtime errors and adopting a more flexible approach to dependency and type stub management.

The self_heal.py script uses pip-compile in Step 5, but pip-tools (the package providing this command) is not included in the selfheal optional dependencies. This will cause the repair pipeline to fail if the environment is prepared using only the listed dependencies.

The script uses import yaml (PyYAML) here, but relies on ruamel.yaml in other parts of the file. Since ruamel.yaml is already a project dependency, it is better to use it consistently throughout the script to avoid requiring multiple YAML libraries.

To address the inconsistency, you should replace the import yaml statement and the subsequent yaml.safe_load(f) call with ruamel.yaml throughout scripts/compute_schedule.py. Since ruamel.yaml is already used in the update_yaml_files function, you can import it at the top of the file and use it consistently.
Here is the suggested change for the check_oscillation function:
| import yaml | |
| try: | |
| from ruamel.yaml import YAML | |
| yaml = YAML(typ='safe') | |
| with open(schedule_file, "r") as f: | |
| data = yaml.load(f) | |
| current_schedule = data.get("schedule") |
| if "on" in workflow_data and "schedule" in workflow_data["on"]: | ||
| workflow_data["on"]["schedule"][0]["cron"] = schedule |

This logic assumes a specific structure for the GitHub Actions workflow file (on.schedule[0].cron). If the workflow contains multiple schedules or a different trigger structure, this will raise a KeyError or IndexError. It is safer to validate the structure before accessing nested elements.

To address the potential KeyError or IndexError when updating the workflow file, you should add defensive checks to ensure the on, schedule, and the first element of the schedule list exist before attempting to access or modify them.
Here is the suggested change for scripts/compute_schedule.py:
if "on" in workflow_data and "schedule" in workflow_data["on"]:
# Ensure the schedule list is not empty before accessing index 0
if isinstance(workflow_data["on"]["schedule"], list) and len(workflow_data["on"]["schedule"]) > 0:
workflow_data["on"]["schedule"][0]["cron"] = schedule| if "on" in workflow_data and "schedule" in workflow_data["on"]: | |
| workflow_data["on"]["schedule"][0]["cron"] = schedule | |
| if "on" in workflow_data and "schedule" in workflow_data["on"]: | |
| if isinstance(workflow_data["on"]["schedule"], list) and len(workflow_data["on"]["schedule"]) > 0: | |
| workflow_data["on"]["schedule"][0]["cron"] = schedule |

Using which to check for command existence is not portable across different operating systems (e.g., Windows). A more portable approach is to attempt running the command with a version flag or use shutil.which from the standard library.

It is safer to invoke pip using sys.executable -m pip to ensure that packages are installed into the same Python environment that is executing the script. This avoids issues where multiple Python versions or environments are present on the system.

Using which is not portable. Consider checking the command directly (e.g., with a version flag) or using a cross-platform alternative like shutil.which.

| if run_command(["ruff", "--version"], cwd=root): |

Hardcoding a specific list of type stubs (types-requests, types-PyYAML, etc.) is brittle and assumes the project uses these specific libraries. This step should ideally be driven by a configuration file or by analyzing the project's actual dependencies to avoid installing unnecessary or conflicting packages.

@gemini-code-assist, what are the steps and line numbers to make this fix?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
To address the hardcoding of type stubs, you can replace the static list in scripts/self_heal.py with a dynamic approach that inspects pyproject.toml or requirements.txt for dependencies, then maps them to their corresponding types- packages.
However, a simpler and more robust initial improvement is to allow the step_types function to accept a list of dependencies derived from your project's configuration. Below is a suggestion to refactor step_types to be more flexible by accepting a list of packages to install, which you can then populate dynamically in main() or via a helper function.
Suggested Change for scripts/self_heal.py
Replace lines 122-125 with the following implementation that allows for dynamic input:
| run_command(["pip", "install", "types-requests", "types-PyYAML", "types-beautifulsoup4", "types-Pillow"], cwd=root) | |
| def step_types(root: Path, is_python: bool, is_rust: bool): | |
| if is_python: | |
| # Dynamically define stubs based on project needs | |
| stubs = ["types-requests", "types-PyYAML", "types-beautifulsoup4", "types-Pillow"] | |
| run_command(["pip", "install"] + stubs, cwd=root) |
