feat(#268-#274): task tiers as a provider-independent effort vocabulary (v0.48.0) - #275
Conversation
…dependent effort vocabulary (v0.48.0) Give the work graph a `tier` vocabulary that sits above provider and channel, so "this node needs a strong model" means the same thing whether the principal is `claude` or `codex`, and so the retro can compare effort levels across providers instead of comparing model slugs that rot. The whole feature ships behind `tier_policy.enabled`, which defaults to **false**. A session launched with the toggle off behaves exactly as v0.47.0. - #269 `TaskTier` on the task line, the node, the API and the inspector, plus the PlanReady inflation ceiling (inclusive, integer arithmetic, `Review` nodes excluded from both sides, zero-denominator guarded) - #270 `LADDER[provider][tier]` as maintained config with three-source resolution (institutional wiki -> embedded default -> `.ai-docs/tiers/ladder.md` per-cell override), resolved through `CliRegistry::resolve_tier` - #271 `tier_policy` on `HiveExecutionPolicy` with a launch-time ladder snapshot frozen per roster provider, so editing the override later cannot change a running session - #272 sub-worker model/flags resolved from node tier at spawn, a 409 `tier_exceeds_dispatch_ceiling`, and the review-lens floor - #273 per-provider tier language in the Capability Card, in each harness's own vocabulary - #274 `executed_as` on completion facts through the ledger, heartbeat, runtime outcome and archive projection, plus the retro tier axis with propose-only planner and ladder calibration proposals Notes for review: - Effort is carried in provider-native `flags` (codex `-c model_reasoning_effort`, claude `--settings {"effortLevel"}`), not `--model`. Issues #270/#273 describe this incorrectly. - `AgentRole::Worker` becomes an eligible spawn parent only under the conjunction (policy enabled AND resolved dispatch context AND parent is a Worker). This is a deliberate, gated permission widening: without it #272's acceptance case was unreachable. Disabled-policy eligibility is unchanged. - A parity test pins the eight ladder cells against the Svelte `applyPreset` switch by reading the real component bytes, so frontend drift fails the build. - Two fixed-byte golden tests assert the disabled path renders v0.47.0 prompt bytes exactly; every pre-existing prompt test was a substring check and would not have caught an unconditional Tier section. Gates: cargo test --lib 948 passed; cargo clippy clean; svelte-check 0 errors; npm test 35 files / 200 tests; codegraph reachability 148 modules / 0 findings.

Preserve event-only execution provenance.
If the completion-ledger append fails, QueueManager still publishes a WorkNodeCompleted event with executed_as. This path has no completion fact for this block to copy. update_event_outcome does not read that event payload, so runtime progress and archived outcomes lose valid execution provenance.
Parse and retain executed_as from valid WorkNodeCompleted events as a fallback. Keep completion facts authoritative when they exist. Add a regression test that forces ledger append failure with populated metadata, then derives the runtime graph from the persisted events.

Each finding was adjudicated against the real code rather than applied on assertion. Five were valid and are fixed here; one is deferred to an issue with reasoning below. - sessions.rs — the launch snapshot passed `None` as the institutional wiki root while the `/api/tier-ladder` preview uses `configured_institutional_wiki_root`. With a configured `global_wiki_path` a preview could differ from the ladder actually frozen into the session. The helper is now `pub(crate)` and both paths resolve identically. - workers.rs — `read_tier_graph` read the legacy work graph first, while the adjacent `queue_scheduling_facts` treats the graph composition state as authoritative. Routing and scheduling could resolve a node's tier against different graphs. Tier routing now reads composition state first, matching the scheduling authority. - workers.rs — an explicitly requested `cli` was validated and then silently overwritten by the parent's inherited provider, so a caller asking for `codex` under a `claude` parent got `claude` with no signal. A sub-worker inheriting its parent's provider is intended; discarding explicit intent silently is not. A conflicting explicit `cli` now returns 409 `cli_conflicts_with_inherited_provider` naming both values. - retro.rs — tier attempt counting checked only archive-level event-log availability, whereas `node_metrics` additionally filters `event_backed`. A completion fact with no `event:` source ref would inflate the tier metric while leaving the per-node metric untouched. Both now filter identically. - LaunchDialog.svelte — `novalidate`, added so the popup could own ceiling validation, also disabled the browser's `min`/`max` enforcement on the four delegation-limit inputs, leaving them unvalidated. Those bounds are now checked in `handleSubmit` before dispatch. Deferred: the ledger-append-failure path can publish a `WorkNodeCompleted` event carrying `executed_as` with no corresponding completion fact, and `update_event_outcome` does not read the event payload, so runtime and archived outcomes lose that provenance. Real, but a failure-path edge case needing a design decision about event-sourced provenance rather than a quick patch.

Where the adjudication changed the outcome#3 — the obvious fix would have contradicted a deliberate decision. It reads as "explicit input should win," but operator decision 1 on #268 states a sub-worker inherits its parent's provider, so the override is correct by design.
