Controller deferred this PR; awaiting Phase 6+ scope-evaluator or operator re-enablement.
Auto-agents controller manages this PR/issue (see tools/controller/deploy/RUNBOOK.md). Remove this label to abandon controller management.
PR blocked by an open issue dependency. Operator must close the dep (or remove the dependency link) before the merge driver can act. Auto-cleared by merge_drive when no open deps remain.
Most recent merge cycle hit CI timeout. Driver excludes this PR while last merge_cycle row is < 30 min old; label persists thereafter as visible history.

Detected master commit violating the strict merge invariant. Tracked as an issue (not a PR label); kept here for label completeness.
In-cycle escalation: most recent attempt ran at the Tier 0 slot (`tier-0`). Slot's model defined in .opencode/models/tiers.yaml.
In-cycle escalation: most recent attempt ran at the Tier 1 slot (`tier-1`). Slot's model defined in .opencode/models/tiers.yaml.
In-cycle escalation: most recent attempt ran at the Tier 2 slot (`tier-2`). Slot's model defined in .opencode/models/tiers.yaml. Gated behind IMPLEMENTER_ESCALATION_TIER2_ENABLED.

Reviewer has APPROVED this PR and no later REQUEST_CHANGES is outstanding. The merge driver requires this label to even consider a PR for merging. Set by the reviewer worker on APPROVE; cleared on REQUEST_CHANGES.
Train repeatedly lost master-tempo races. Driver excludes via merge_cycle until cooldown elapses; label persists as visible history.
Revert PR backing out an invariant violation. Fast-tracked through the merge driver.
Sentinel PR duplicated from upstream into a personal fork by tools/duplicate_prs_to_fork.py for pipeline testing. Lives only in the fork; the canonical pipeline never sees it.
No implementer activity for N days. Flagged for human review. Auto-cleared on next push to head branch.
Repeatedly fails on current master (>= 3 ci-fail-on-rebased-sha releases in 12 h). Excluded from driver until human triage.

Summary
Fixes issue #10972 where
_path_matches()inexecute_phase_context_assembler.pyusedPurePath.full_match(pattern)which requires the ENTIRE path to match. Since fragment metadata stores absolute paths (e.g./app/.opencode/skills/SKILL.md) while project context include/exclude settings produce relative globs (.opencode/, docs/), the include/exclude filters were silently ineffective.Changes

_glob_matches()static helper that auto-prefixes relative patterns with**/so they correctly match any trailing segment of an absolute path_path_matches()to use_glob_matches()instead of direct full_match()context_phase_analysis.py

Review: fix(acms): normalize context path matching for absolute paths in _path_matches
Overall assessment: The fix addresses the correct root cause and the approach in
execute_phase_context_assembler.py(_glob_matches()) is clean and well-structured. However, several blocking issues must be resolved before this PR can be merged.❌ BLOCKING: CI / lint is failing
The
CI / lintjob is failing, which also causesCI / status-checkto fail. This is a hard merge gate — all required CI checks must pass.Root cause identified:
context_phase_analysis.pyline 45 has 101 characters (ruff limit is 88):This line must be wrapped to stay within the 88-character line length limit.
Additionally,
execute_phase_context_assembler.pyline 84 (docstring example) is 89 characters. Please wrap it too.Fix: Break the long conditional onto multiple lines, e.g.:
❌ BLOCKING: CI / benchmark-regression is failing
The
CI / benchmark-regressionjob is also failing. Please investigate and resolve this before merge. If the failure is pre-existing and unrelated to this PR, provide evidence of that so the reviewer can assess accordingly.❌ BLOCKING: PR missing required milestone
The linked issue #10972 is assigned to milestone
v3.5.0. Per CONTRIBUTING.md, the PR must be assigned to the same milestone as the linked issue. This PR has no milestone assigned.Fix: Assign milestone
v3.5.0to this PR.❌ BLOCKING: PR missing required Type/ label
Per CONTRIBUTING.md: "Exactly one Type/ label: Type/Bug, Type/Feature, or Type/Task" is a required PR merge criterion. This PR has no labels at all.
Fix: Add the
Type/Buglabel to this PR.❌ BLOCKING: Branch name milestone mismatch
The issue #10972 is assigned to
v3.5.0, which per the branch naming convention corresponds tom5. However, the branch is namedbugfix/m6-acms-path-matching-absolute(usingm6=v3.6.0).Per CONTRIBUTING.md: "The milestone number N comes from the milestone assigned to the linked issue (e.g. if the issue is in milestone v3.4.0 → N = 4). The branch MUST match the Branch field in the issue Metadata section."
Fix: If the issue is definitively in
v3.5.0, the branch should bebugfix/m5-acms-path-matching-absolute. Alternatively, if the work was re-targeted tov3.6.0, the issue milestone should be updated to match. Whichever is correct, ensure consistency between the issue milestone and the branchmNnumber.⚠️ CODE ISSUE: Redundant backward-compatibility fallback in
_matches_patternmay cause unexpected behaviorIn
context_phase_analysis.py, the new_matches_patternattempts matching with the prefixed pattern first, then falls back to trying the ORIGINAL un-prefixed pattern:This fallback is problematic:
docs/**, if**/{pattern}fails to match (e.g., because the path truly does not belong underdocs/), trying the originaldocs/**fallback can produce false positives on relative paths and false negatives on absolute paths — exactly the bug being fixed._glob_matches()inexecute_phase_context_assembler.py(the cleaner implementation) has NO such fallback — it simply auto-prefixes and matches. The two implementations should be consistent.path_obj.match(prefixed.replace("**/", ""))already handles the zero-depth compatibility case on the primary branch. The secondary fallback duplicates this.Recommended fix: Remove the
if not matched:block entirely. The_glob_matches()approach inexecute_phase_context_assembler.pyis correct and should be mirrored here.⚠️ SUGGESTION: Dead helper function
_strict_path_policy()in step fileIn
features/steps/project_context_phase_analysis_steps.py, the function_strict_path_policy()(line 188) is defined but never called — the@givenstep at line 200 creates its ownProjectContextPolicydirectly without calling it.Suggestion: Remove
_strict_path_policy()to avoid confusion. Dead code in test files can mislead future contributors into thinking the function is used somewhere.✅ What is working well
execute_phase_context_assembler.pyis clean:_glob_matches()is a well-named, well-documented, correct static helper. The docstring examples accurately illustrate the behavior._path_matches()delegation to_glob_matches()is idiomatic.@tdd_issue @tdd_issue_10972tags are included as required by the TDD bug fix workflow.ISSUES CLOSED: #10972footer.Please address all BLOCKING items, then re-request review.

BLOCKING — lint failure (E501): line too long (101 > 88 characters)
This line is 101 characters and will fail ruff linting. The CI / lint job is currently failing because of this.

📋 Estimate: tier 1.
Cross-file bug fix (2 service files + 2 test feature files + CHANGELOG/CONTRIBUTORS). The core logic change is focused — auto-prefix relative globs with
**/for absolute path matching — but CI has three failing gates requiring investigation: (1) two trivial E501 lint errors (mechanical line-wrap), (2) unit test failures in actor_run_signature.feature and plan_service_coverage.feature that appear unrelated to path matching and need triage to determine if pre-existing or regressed, (3) integration test failures in the same actor_run_signature area. The test failure investigation across multiple feature files is the dominant cost driver — unclear whether these are flaky/pre-existing failures or introduced regressions. Standard tier-1 cross-file work with test investigation burden.87c6b5afc2to7c08f63a847c08f63a84tobc9690e698✅ Approved
