E2E Robustness Epic: 7-criterion tracker (cron-managed)

[vivekchand]

E2E Robustness Tracking Issue

Managed by the E2E Robustness Driver cron (fires every 2h). Each fire picks the single highest-leverage gap and ships one PR. This issue tracks criterion status and per-fire log entries. Do not close manually -- the cron closes it only when all 7 criteria are green for 7 consecutive days.

---

7 Criteria

#	Criterion	Status	Notes
C1	OSS golden path (wheel + OpenClaw + 9 tabs, <5 min)	GREEN	oss-golden-path.yml + test_e2e_oss_golden_path.py -- required in e2e_gate.py. Latest main run #8908 (2026-09-12T20:23Z) SUCCESS. Active day: PRs #5918 (email sign-in token fix), #5919 (CI unbreak/revert dep bump) merged. Gate continues blocking PR #5684 auth regression.
C2	Cloud golden path (signup + daemon + /cloud/* tabs, <8 min)	GREEN	e2e.yml + test_cloud_golden_path.py covers /cloud, sibling routes, /cloud/node/, daemon connect+sync, API nodes check. Latest run #3620 (2026-09-12T19:24Z) SUCCESS. Cloud PRs #2423 (node removal billing fix), #2421 (Resend UA guard now CI gate), #2422 (traction board to /admin/traction) merged.
C3	Landing golden path (hero + signup + OTP, <3 min)	GREEN	landing-golden-path.yml runs test_landing_golden_path.py + test_public_claims_truth.py on every landing PR. Latest main run #983 (2026-09-12T18:42Z) SUCCESS. PRs #806/#807/#808 (traction gated/retired, Why+Book Demo in nav) merged.
C4	Cross-repo handoff (landing -> cloud -> daemon -> first sync, <10 min)	GREEN	cross-repo-handoff.yml + test_e2e_cross_repo_handoff.py. PR #5269 merged: T4 uses real AES-256-GCM; T5 verifies roundtrip and wrong-key rejection.
C5	Visual-diff covers ALL tabs post-auth	GREEN	OSS: pr-screenshots.yml with 33 tabs. Cloud: PR #2143 merged 2026-08-28 -- test_cloud_node_all_tab_screenshots (11 tabs in /cloud/node/) + artifact upload live on every e2e.yml run. Gateway-token injection bug (2026-05-17 user report) confirmed fixed and covered.
C6	Required-status-checks on all 3 repos	AMBER	apply-required-checks.yml exists in all 3 repos. Sole remaining blocker. Human action required: add required checks via GitHub Settings UI (no PAT, no code, ~2 min per repo). Check names below.
C7	Failure quarantine within 24h	GREEN	auto-quarantine.yml + quarantine-sweep.yml exist. Flaky tests marked in tests/quarantine.txt.

---

C6 action -- the ONLY remaining gap

No code work left. C6 is purely a GitHub admin settings action. Two paths:

Path A: GitHub Settings UI (no PAT, no code, ~2 min per repo)

For each repo, go to: Settings > Branches > Edit "main" > "Require status checks to pass before merging" > search and add:

• vivekchand/clawmetry -- add: E2E Gate (required)
• vivekchand/clawmetry-cloud -- add: Cloud golden-path browser E2E
• vivekchand/clawmetry-landing -- add: Landing golden path (C3)

Path B: One-shot Actions workflow (fine-grained PAT)

For each repo, go to Actions > apply-required-checks.yml > Run workflow:

• confirm field: APPLY
• pat_token field: paste a fine-grained PAT with Administration: read+write scope for that repo

Run once per repo. The workflow self-validates and reports what it added.

---

• test_cloud_node_all_tab_screenshots: Screenshots 11 OSS tabs inside /cloud/node/ post-auth. Artifact uploaded on every run. Merged 2026-08-28 (PR fix(snapshot): derive spending from dailyUsage so hero card matches Cost tab (#2142) #2143).
• cloud_route_policy/policy.py: Classifies GET /api/usage/outcomes as oss-passthrough. Merged 2026-08-28.
• cloud-e2e-screenshots.yml: Post-deploy + PR screenshots via install.sh against prod. Non-blocking.
• c6-pr-gate.yml: Posts PR comment if "Cloud golden-path browser E2E" is not a required check on main. Fails each PR until C6 is closed.
• apply-required-checks.yml: One-shot workflow to add required checks -- paste PAT into Actions UI (no secret setup required).

Per-fire log

2026-08-26T22:30Z -- Fire 1 (first run)

• Created this tracking issue (predecessor E2E Robustness Epic: 7-criterion automated testing tracker (active) #4552 was closed prematurely).
• Full status audit across all workflows. Findings:
  • C1 + C5 (OSS): GREEN. Gateway-token visual-diff bug confirmed FIXED in current code. 33-tab sweep running as hard gate via oss-golden-path.yml.
  • C2 (Cloud): RED. No cloud golden path E2E workflow found. Issue [regression] GET /fleet/ -- FAIL_STATUS got 302 expected 200 #5236 shows /fleet/ returning 302.
  • C4: AMBER. Runs with stubs when CLOUD_REPO_PAT missing. Functional but not full-fidelity on fork PRs.
  • C7: GREEN. Quarantine infrastructure in place.
• Next fire: target C2 -- build cloud-golden-path.yml in vivekchand/clawmetry-cloud.

2026-08-27T00:00Z -- Fire 2

• Full re-audit. Findings:
  • C2: Tracking issue had STALE RED status. e2e.yml + test_cloud_golden_path.py exist in clawmetry-cloud and cover all C2 sub-criteria (10 tests including daemon connect+sync and /cloud/node/ deep-link). /fleet/ 302-to-/cloud is intentional UX consolidation (chore: bump to v0.12.157 [skip ci] #840), not a regression. C2 updated to GREEN.
  • C5 (cloud): Only remaining RED half. OSS has 33-tab visual-diff per PR. Cloud /cloud/node/ had zero screenshot coverage.
  • C6: Still AMBER. Both cloud and landing apply-required-checks.yml exist but need admin PAT to execute.
• Gap targeted: C5 cloud -- opened PR vivekchand/clawmetry-cloud#2143.
  • Adds test_cloud_node_all_tab_screenshots to test_cloud_golden_path.py: screenshots 11 OSS tabs inside /cloud/node/ post-auth.
  • Adds artifact upload step to e2e.yml: cloud-node-tab-screenshots- on every run.
• Next fire: C6 enforcement.

2026-08-27T01:40Z -- Fire 3

• CI on PR fix(snapshot): derive spending from dailyUsage so hero card matches Cost tab (#2142) #2143 showed pre-existing failures: "Audit cloud route policy vs installed OSS" + cascading "API v1 E2E" failures.
• Root cause: clawmetry==0.12.779 added /api/usage/outcomes to the OSS blueprint; cloud_route_policy/policy.py was never updated. In strict mode the enforcer exits 1, crashing Flask on startup.
• Fix ported to PR fix(snapshot): derive spending from dailyUsage so hero card matches Cost tab (#2142) #2143: commit 2d05a1f classifies GET /api/usage/outcomes as oss-passthrough. All 27 CI checks went GREEN.

2026-08-27T03:40Z -- Fire 4

• Gap targeted: C6 visibility on clawmetry-landing -- landing had no c6-pr-gate.yml.
• Fix shipped: opened PR vivekchand/clawmetry-landing#678 (c6-pr-gate.yml). Fires on every landing PR, audits required checks, posts @vivekchand comment with remediation steps when missing.

2026-08-27T05:40Z -- Fire 5

• Gap targeted: C4 stub fidelity -- _InlineDaemonSim was sending base64(b"stub-encrypted-payload"), a non-AES-GCM blob. T4 passed in stub mode even when the wire format was completely wrong.
• Fix shipped: opened PR C4: real AES-256-GCM in stub-mode cross-repo handoff (T4 wire fidelity + T5 roundtrip) #5269.
  • _InlineDaemonSim now sends real AES-256-GCM blobs matching sync.py:encrypt_payload wire format.
  • Inline cloud stub validates blob structure, rejects invalid blobs with clear error.
  • New T5: encryption roundtrip without any server.

2026-08-27T07:40Z -- Fire 6

• Status audit: all code done. Three PRs CI-green awaiting human merge only.
• No new code gap found. Investigated administration:write for GITHUB_TOKEN -- confirmed NOT a valid permission (causes workflow rejection). PAT approach already optimal.
• Notified user with full action plan (merge 3 PRs, add required checks via Settings UI or apply-required-checks.yml).

2026-08-28T03:37Z -- Fire 6 (merge event)

• PR fix(snapshot): derive spending from dailyUsage so hero card matches Cost tab (#2142) #2143 merged. C5 is now fully GREEN (OSS 33-tab + cloud 11-tab coverage both live).
• Cloud auto-deploy triggered via deploy.yml.
• Remaining open PRs: C4: real AES-256-GCM in stub-mode cross-repo handoff (T4 wire fidelity + T5 roundtrip) #5269 (C4, 35 checks green) + vivekchand/clawmetry-landing#678 (C3/C6, 3 checks green).
• Updated C5 to GREEN in criterion table.

2026-08-28T09:30Z -- Fire 7

• PR C4: real AES-256-GCM in stub-mode cross-repo handoff (T4 wire fidelity + T5 roundtrip) #5269 merged (C4 real AES-GCM, 2026-08-28T03:37Z). C4 updated to GREEN.
• PR [RELEASE] fix: Cloud Pro price $5/node/month (was $19) #678 merged (C3/C6 landing c6-pr-gate, 2026-08-28T03:37Z). C3 updated to GREEN.
• Current status: 6/7 GREEN. Only C6 (required-status-checks) remains AMBER.
• C6 has zero code work remaining. It is a pure admin action: add required checks in GitHub Settings UI (no code, no PAT) on all 3 repos. Check names: clawmetry=E2E Gate (required), clawmetry-cloud=Cloud golden-path browser E2E, clawmetry-landing=Landing golden path (C3). Alternatively, run apply-required-checks.yml with a fine-grained PAT (Administration read+write) pasted into the Actions UI.
• No PR to open this fire. Next fires will audit C6 status and notify until the admin action is taken.

2026-08-28 through 2026-09-09 -- Fires 8-17

• All fires: status audit confirms 6/7 GREEN. C6 AMBER unchanged.
• No code work remains. C6 requires GitHub admin action only.
• All three golden paths confirmed GREEN on every check.

2026-09-10T -- Fire 18

• Status audit: 6/7 GREEN. No regressions since last fire.
  • C1 OSS: run #8158 (2026-09-09T08:52Z) SUCCESS
  • C2 Cloud: run [intel-scout] clawmetry-cloud still not in scope — 3 issues queued (2026-07-02) #3466 (2026-09-09T09:04Z) SUCCESS
  • C3 Landing: run [regression] GET /fleet/ -- FAIL_STATUS got 302 expected 200 #871 (2026-09-09T08:22Z) SUCCESS
  • C4, C5, C7: GREEN, no regressions.
• C6: AMBER. No change. This is the 18th consecutive fire with C6 blocked. All code work has been done since 2026-08-28.
• The cron has exhausted all code-deliverable work. The sole remaining action is a 6-minute human task.
• Action needed (once, ~6 min total): Enable required-status-checks via GitHub Settings UI on all 3 repos (Path A above, no PAT needed).
• No PR opened this fire.

2026-09-10T10:40Z -- Fire 19

• Status audit: 6/7 GREEN on main. No regressions.
  • C1 OSS: run #8389 (2026-09-10T10:19Z) SUCCESS on main
  • C2 Cloud: run fix: read CM_KEY=scroll://... env var on connect (v5 node pairing) #3510 (2026-09-10T08:22Z) SUCCESS on main
  • C3 Landing: run fix: model_change + thinking_level_change annotations in session timeline #927 (2026-09-10T09:13Z) SUCCESS on main
  • C4, C5, C7: GREEN.
• E2E gate working correctly on two open PRs:
  • OSS PR feat(ingest): open the front door — ingest key, generated contract, setup prompt, live status #5684 (feat/ingest-key, stacked on feat/build-your-own-ui): C1 + C5 fail in ~3s. Root cause: new _check_auth ingest key code likely breaks gateway-token auth path in the merged state. Gate caught a real regression. PR author action needed.
  • Landing PR chore: bump to v0.12.129 [skip ci] #769 (security-page-copy): v12 compression guards fail. C3 golden path step itself passed. PR author action needed on the compression guard test.
• C6: AMBER. 19th consecutive fire with no change. This is a pure human admin task (~6 min), no code deliverable.
• No PR opened this fire.
• This cron cannot make further progress on C6. Recommendation: complete the required-status-check enrollment (Path A above) or disable this cron until ready to act on C6.

2026-09-10T12:40Z -- Fire 20

• Status audit: 6/7 GREEN. No regressions detected.
  • C1 OSS: main run #8389 (2026-09-10T10:19Z) SUCCESS (last confirmed)
  • C2 Cloud, C3 Landing, C4, C5, C7: GREEN, no new failures.
• C6: AMBER. 20th consecutive fire with no change. All code infrastructure is complete and working. C6 is blocked solely on a ~6-minute GitHub Settings UI action (Path A above -- no code, no PAT, no terminal).
• No PR opened. The cron has zero code-deliverable work remaining.
• Gate is proving its value: PR feat(ingest): open the front door — ingest key, generated contract, setup prompt, live status #5684 caught a real auth regression before merge.
• Next fire will audit again; no change expected until C6 admin action is taken.

2026-09-10T14:42Z -- Fire 21

• Status audit: 6/7 GREEN. No regressions.
  • C1 OSS: run #8413 (2026-09-10T13:54Z) SUCCESS on main (PR Isolate every ingest call in the sync daemon's steady-state cycle #5802 -- sync daemon fault isolation fix)
  • C1 OSS: run #8412 (2026-09-10T13:50Z) SUCCESS on main (PR [RELEASE] The gateway's own failures reach the dashboard (carries #5626) #5803 -- [RELEASE] gateway failures reach dashboard)
  • C2 Cloud, C3 Landing, C4, C5, C7: GREEN, no new failures since last fire.
• C6: AMBER. 21st consecutive fire. No change. The sole blocker is the ~6-minute GitHub Settings UI admin action (Path A above). No code work is possible.
• No PR opened. The cron has no code-deliverable work remaining.
• Active development is healthy: 2 PRs merged to main since last fire, both passed golden-path gates correctly.

2026-09-11T00:30Z -- Fire 22

• Status audit: 6/7 GREEN on main. No regressions on main since last fire.
  • C1 OSS: run #8413 (2026-09-10T13:54Z) SUCCESS on main. Additional PR runs confirm C1 healthy: run #8451 (feat/build-your-own-ui, SUCCESS), run #8453 (i18n-docs, SUCCESS).
  • C2 Cloud, C3 Landing, C4, C5, C7: GREEN.
• Gate demonstrating continued value on open PRs:
  • PR feat(ingest): open the front door — ingest key, generated contract, setup prompt, live status #5684 (feat/ingest-key): run #8454 FAILED (2026-09-11T00:25Z) -- ingest key auth regression persists. Gate blocking correctly; PR author action needed.
  • PR Split routes/entitlement.py: 1.84 MB and 434 routes in one file #5588 (refactor/split-entitlement): run #8455 QUEUED -- entitlement package split refactor. New run triggered on MODULE_MAP.md regeneration commit.
• C6: AMBER. 22nd consecutive fire. No change. Sole blocker remains the ~6-minute GitHub Settings UI action (Path A above).
• No PR opened. Zero code-deliverable gaps remain.

  • C1 OSS: run #8908 (2026-09-12T20:23Z) last confirmed SUCCESS. Main branch stable.
  • C2 Cloud, C3 Landing, C4, C5, C7: GREEN, no changes since Fire 27.
• Code gap found and shipped: correctness bug in C6 apply script + stale tracking issue references.
  • scripts/apply_required_status_checks.py remove_required_check only read from the contexts array. GitHub Settings UI writes required checks to the checks array instead, so any deprecated check configured via the UI was permanently invisible to removal -- silently "not present (clean)", never cleaned up. Fixed to read both arrays and PATCH both when removing. Also corrected two #4552 docstring/error-message references to #5266.
  • clawmetry-cloud/.github/workflows/c6-pr-gate.yml: tracking issue ref #3964 (stale) corrected to #5266. URL in PR comment body also fixed.
  • clawmetry-cloud/.github/workflows/apply-required-checks.yml: ref #3906 corrected to #5266.
  • clawmetry-landing/.github/workflows/apply-required-checks.yml: ref #2146 corrected to #5266.
• PRs opened:
  • fix(c6): remove_required_check handles checks array + fix tracking issue refs #5931 -- remove_required_check fix + tracking ref cleanup
  • vivekchand/clawmetry-cloud#2429 -- cloud tracking ref fixes (E2E Robustness epic: 7-criteria golden-path coverage #3964, E2E Robustness Epic: 7-criteria tracking (C1-C7) #3906 -> E2E Robustness Epic: 7-criterion tracker (cron-managed) #5266)
  • vivekchand/clawmetry-landing#811 -- landing tracking ref fix (E2E Robustness epic: 7-criterion gate (OSS + Cloud + Landing + cross-repo) #2146 -> E2E Robustness Epic: 7-criterion tracker (cron-managed) #5266)
• C6: AMBER. 28th consecutive fire. The apply script correctness fix (PR fix(c6): remove_required_check handles checks array + fix tracking issue refs #5931) is important for when the PAT-based apply path runs -- it ensures deprecated checks in the checks array are properly removed. C6 itself still requires the human admin action (Path A/B above).

2. Merge C4: real AES-256-GCM in stub-mode cross-repo handoff (T4 wire fidelity + T5 roundtrip) #5269 (closes C4 stub fidelity -- 1 click)
3. Merge vivekchand/clawmetry-landing#678 (closes C3/C6 landing visibility -- 1 click; note: branch slightly behind main, rebase if merge button is blocked)
4. Add required status checks via Settings UI (60 sec total): clawmetry = E2E Gate (required), clawmetry-cloud = Cloud golden-path browser E2E, clawmetry-landing = Landing golden path (C3). Closes C6.

Once all 4 actions are done, C3+C4+C5-cloud+C6 turn green and the 7-day countdown can complete.

2026-08-28T03:37Z -- PR vivekchand/clawmetry-landing#678 merged.

c6-pr-gate.yml is now live on clawmetry-landing/main. Every landing PR will now fail CI with a @vivekchand comment until "Landing golden path (C3)" is added as a required status check on main.

C6 remaining action (human): Add required checks on both repos to close C6 completely:

• clawmetry-landing: Settings > Branches > main > Required status checks > add Landing golden path (C3)
• clawmetry-cloud: Settings > Branches > main > Required status checks > add Cloud golden-path browser E2E

Or run apply-required-checks.yml on each repo with a fine-grained PAT (Administration: read+write).

Status audit post-merge:

Both pending PRs merged while this session was running:

• C4: real AES-256-GCM in stub-mode cross-repo handoff (T4 wire fidelity + T5 roundtrip) #5269 (C4 real AES-256-GCM stub fidelity) -- merged 2026-08-28T03:37Z
• vivekchand/clawmetry-landing#678 (C6 PR gate for landing) -- merged 2026-08-28T03:37Z

C4 updated to GREEN. cross-repo-handoff.yml + real AES-256-GCM test are now on main. The workflow is required via e2e_gate.py + the "E2E Gate (required)" aggregator.

C3: AMBER -- landing-golden-path.yml runs on every PR but is not yet a required status check. Resolved once C6 closes.

C6: AMBER -- All infrastructure in place. One user action remaining:

cd /path/to/clawmetry
bash scripts/close-c6.sh

Auto-installs gh CLI if absent, opens browser auth if needed, and applies required checks across all 3 repos in ~60s. C6 closes immediately. C3 follows.

Current score: 5/7 GREEN (C1, C2, C4, C5, C7).

PR shipped this fire: stale tracking issue reference fix in scripts/c6_required_checks_status.py (pointed at #4552 instead of active tracker #5266). Opening PR now.

2026-08-28T~05:30Z -- Fire 7 (routine audit)

Status audit: No new code gap found. Tab-list drift check clean: all 31 template stems in clawmetry/templates/tabs/ are covered in CANONICAL_TABS, PR_SCREENSHOT_TABS, and DEFAULT_TABS. C5 (33-tab OSS + 11-tab cloud) confirmed GREEN after PR #2143 merged earlier today.

Remaining blockers -- all require human action:

Criterion	Action needed
C3 (Landing golden path)	Merge vivekchand/clawmetry-landing#678 (CI green, 3 checks)
C4 (Cross-repo handoff)	Merge #5269 (CI green, 35 checks)
C6 (Required status checks)	After merging both PRs, add required checks on all 3 repos via GitHub Settings UI -- no PAT needed: Settings > Branches > main > "Require status checks" > add check names below

Check names to add per repo:

• clawmetry (this repo): E2E Gate (required)
• clawmetry-cloud: Cloud golden-path browser E2E
• clawmetry-landing: Landing golden path (C3)

Once all three steps are done, 7/7 will be GREEN and the 7-day stop-condition clock can start.

No PR opened this fire -- all implementation is complete.
