Metadata

  • Commit Message: test(security): cover safety profile enforcement
  • Branch: feature/post-safety-profile-tests

Background

Test coverage confirms safety profile model validation, persistence, resolution ordering, and enforcement stub behavior. Tests validate both valid and invalid profile configurations.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Add test fixture notes for safety profile YAML examples in docs/development/testing.md.

Definition of Done

This issue is complete when:

  • All subtasks below are completed and checked off.
  • A Git commit is created where the first line of the commit message matches
    the Commit Message in Metadata exactly, followed by a blank line, then
    additional lines providing relevant details about the implementation. The
    commit body should be appropriate in size for a commit message and relatively
    complete in describing what was done. The
    commit is pushed to the remote on the branch matching the Branch in
    Metadata exactly.
  • The commit is submitted as a pull request to master, reviewed, and
    merged before this issue is marked done.

Subtasks

  • Tests (Behave): Add scenarios for safety profile allow/deny rules and missing profile errors (stub enforcement expected).
  • Tests (Behave): Add scenarios for cost/retry bounds validation on action creation.
  • Tests (Robot): Add Robot test that verifies safety profile appears in action show output.
  • Add test fixture notes for safety profile YAML examples in docs/development/testing.md.
  • Tests (ASV): Add benchmarks/safety_profile_tests_bench.py for scenario runtime baseline.
  • Verify coverage >=97% via nox -s coverage_report. If coverage is <97% then review the current unit test coverage report at build/coverage.xml and use it to write new Behave based unit tests to improve coverage on whichever file has the most uncovered lines. Once that is done rerun nox -s coverage_report to verify all tests pass and coverage is above >=97%. Only mark this as complete once coverage is >=97%.
  • Run nox (all default sessions, including benchmark), fix any errors if needed ensuring nox passes across entire code base, do not ignore any failure even if it seems unrelated to this commit, fix it.

Implementation Notes

SafetyProfile Domain Model

Created src/cleveragents/domain/models/core/safety_profile.py — a frozen Pydantic BaseModel per ADR-041 with the following fields:

Field Type Default Constraint
require_sandbox bool True
require_checkpoints bool True
allow_unsafe_tools bool False
require_human_approval bool False
allowed_skill_categories list[str] []
max_cost_per_plan float | None None
max_total_cost float | None None
max_retries_per_step int 3 ge=0, le=100

Validators:

  • field_validator("max_retries_per_step"): Defensive isinstance check before range enforcement (0-100)
  • model_validator(mode="after"): Cross-field constraint ensuring max_cost_per_plan <= max_total_cost when both are set

Model config: frozen=True (immutability), strict=True

Action Model Integration

Added safety_profile: SafetyProfile | None = None to the Action model in src/cleveragents/domain/models/core/action.py. This is a non-breaking optional field addition.

Test Coverage

Behave BDD (35 scenarios total):

  • features/safety_profile.feature — 28 scenarios: default values, boolean field toggles, skill categories (empty, single, multiple), cost bounds (per-plan, total, cross-field validation), retry bounds (valid range, boundary 0/100, out-of-range), immutability enforcement (5 frozen-field scenarios), and stub enforcement (allow/deny, missing profile)
  • features/safety_profile_cost_retry.feature — 7 scenarios: Action+SafetyProfile integration (attach with cost bounds, cost validation on action, retry bounds on action, default retry on action, invalid retry rejected, cross-field cost validation on action, action without safety profile)

Robot Framework (4 test cases):

  • robot/safety_profile.robot — Default Values, Custom Values, Validation Rejects Bad Retries, Action Attachment (all via robot/helper_safety_profile.py)

ASV Benchmarks (6 suites):

  • benchmarks/safety_profile_tests_bench.py — DefaultCreation, CustomCreation, ValidationReject, ImmutabilityCheck, CostBoundCheck, ActionAttachment

Implementation Notes

Branch Recreation

The original feature/post-safety-profile-tests branch was created before #332 was merged to master, which caused it to duplicate the SafetyProfile model code and produce merge conflicts. The branch was deleted and recreated from the current master (commit 66b9a427, which includes #332). This ensures the PR only adds test code — no model duplication.

Files Changed (9 files, +683 lines)

Extended existing #332 files:

  • features/safety_profile.feature — Added 12 new scenarios (boolean flag toggles, deny-none semantics, cost-without-total, type validation, restrictive profile)
  • features/steps/safety_profile_steps.py — Added step definitions for new scenarios, using unique prefixes to avoid AmbiguousStep conflicts with #332 steps
  • robot/safety_profile.robot — Added 2 test cases (Validation Rules, Action Attachment)
  • robot/helper_safety_profile.py — Added _test_validation() and _test_action_attach() commands

New files unique to #333:

  • features/safety_profile_cost_retry.feature — 7 Action+SafetyProfile cost/retry integration scenarios
  • features/steps/safety_profile_cost_retry_steps.py — Step definitions for cost/retry scenarios
  • benchmarks/safety_profile_tests_bench.py — ASV test-scenario runtime baselines

Updated:

  • docs/development/testing.md — Safety Profile Test Fixtures section
  • CHANGELOG.md#333 entry
