Bug Report

Feature Area: Actor run command output
Severity: Medium
Found by: UAT tester instance uat-worker-actor-yaml
Spec reference: docs/specification.md §agents actor run (lines 4562–4937)


What Was Tested

Code-level analysis of src/cleveragents/cli/commands/actor.py — the run command output.

Expected Behavior (from spec)

The spec (lines 4592–4715) defines the actor run output as containing three panels followed by a status line:

  1. Run Summary — Actor, Context, Temperature, Provider, Model
  2. Inputs — Prompt, Context Files, Context Size
  3. Result Metrics — Output, Input Tokens, Output Tokens, Duration, Cost, Tool Calls
  4. Status line: ✓ OK Summary generated

For the temperature+skill example (lines 4722–4753), the output includes:

  1. Actor Run — Actor, Type, Temperature, Skill
  2. Response — the LLM response text
  3. Usage — Tokens, Duration, Cost, Tool Calls
  4. Status line: ✓ OK Actor run completed

Actual Behavior

The run command implementation (lines 183–200) simply outputs the raw result string:

result = asyncio.run(_execute())
...
if output:
    output.write_text(result)
    typer.echo(f"Output written to {output}")
else:
    typer.echo(result)  # ← just raw text, no structured output

There is no code to:

  • Build a Run Summary panel
  • Build an Inputs panel
  • Build a Result Metrics panel (tokens, cost, duration, tool calls)
  • Print a structured Actor Run panel
  • Print a Usage panel

The raw LLM response text is printed directly without any metadata about the run (tokens used, cost, duration, etc.).

Code Location

  • Affected file: src/cleveragents/cli/commands/actor.py lines 49–200
  • Spec reference: docs/specification.md lines 4562–4937

Impact

  • Users get no feedback about run performance (tokens, cost, duration)
  • Users cannot see which context was used or how large it was
  • Users cannot see how many tool calls were made
  • The output is indistinguishable from a plain echo — no structured metadata
  • The --format json and --format yaml options would also not produce the spec-defined structured output
