Metadata

  • Branch: fix/actor-schema-name-validator-server-prefix
  • Commit Message: fix(actor/schema): support full [[server:]namespace/]name format in ActorConfigSchema.validate_name()
  • Milestone: v3.7.0
  • Parent Epic: #392

Description

The spec defines actor namespacing as [[server:]namespace/]name, meaning the full format server:namespace/name (with server prefix) should be valid. However, ActorConfigSchema.validate_name() in src/cleveragents/actor/schema.py enforces exactly one slash, rejecting any name containing a colon prefix like openai:local/my-actor. The validator splits on / and requires exactly 2 parts, which means server:namespace/name (which has one slash but the namespace part contains a colon) would be accepted syntactically but the server prefix is never parsed or validated. More critically, names like server:namespace/name where the server prefix is part of the namespace string are not distinguished from regular namespace/name pairs — there is no parsing of the server: prefix at all.

Expected: The ActorConfigSchema should support the full [[server:]namespace/]name format as specified, including optional server prefix parsing.

Actual: Only namespace/name (exactly one slash, no server prefix) is supported. The server: prefix component is not parsed or validated.

Code location: src/cleveragents/actor/schema.py, ActorConfigSchema.validate_name() method.

Subtasks

  • Audit ActorConfigSchema.validate_name() against the spec's [[server:]namespace/]name grammar
  • Implement regex or parser that correctly handles optional server: prefix, optional namespace/, and required name components
  • Add validation for the server: prefix token (non-empty, valid identifier characters)
  • Update or add unit tests (Behave) covering all valid and invalid name format combinations
  • Update docstrings and inline comments to reflect the full supported format

Definition of Done

  • ActorConfigSchema.validate_name() correctly accepts server:namespace/name, namespace/name, and bare name formats
  • ActorConfigSchema.validate_name() correctly rejects malformed names (empty segments, double colons, etc.)
  • Behave unit tests cover all branches of the new validator logic
  • Pyright type checking passes (nox -e typecheck)
  • All nox stages pass
  • Coverage >= 97%

Issue triaged by project owner:

  • State: Verified
  • Priority: High (confirmed) — Actor name validator rejecting server:namespace/name format means server-mode actors cannot be registered. This blocks server-mode functionality.
  • MoSCoW: Should Have — Server-mode actor naming is spec-required but local-mode actors work fine.

Valid UAT finding.

Transition issue #2885 to State/In Progress.

Preconditions:

  • Current State label: State/Verified (no State/Paused or Blocked blockers detected).
  • No Blocked label present, so no need to remove blocker.

Actions performed:

  • Removed labels: State/Verified
  • Added labels: State/In Progress
  • No other State/* labels were present or affected.

Result:

  • State/Verified removed
  • State/In Progress added

If you want me to proceed with any further transitions (e.g., when the issue reaches In Progress further steps), tell me the target state.
