Summary

CorrectionService.execute_revert() correctly sets phase_transition_target = "strategize" in the CorrectionResult, but the CLI correct_decision() handler never reads this field and never triggers the phase transition. After a revert correction, the plan remains in its current phase instead of re-entering Strategize from the targeted decision point.

What Was Tested

Code-level analysis of correct_decision() CLI handler and execute_revert() against spec §Correction Flow (Revert Mode).

Expected Behavior (from spec)

§Correction Flow (Revert Mode):

Phase transition: Signal that the plan should re-enter the Strategize phase from the corrected decision point

v3.3.0 Acceptance Criterion #7:

agents plan correct --mode=revert re-executes from targeted decision point | Correction creates new attempt, affected subtree recomputed

Actual Behavior

execute_revert() sets the phase transition target:

# src/cleveragents/application/services/correction_service.py
phase_target = "strategize"
result = CorrectionResult(
    ...
    phase_transition_target=phase_target,  # set correctly
)

But the CLI handler ignores it:

# src/cleveragents/cli/commands/plan.py:3318
result = svc.execute_correction(
    request.correction_id,
    decision_tree=decision_tree,
    influence_edges=influence_edges,
)

# Only reads reverted_decisions and new_decisions — never reads phase_transition_target
if fmt != OutputFormat.RICH.value:
    data = {
        "correction_id": result.correction_id,
        "status": result.status.value,
        "mode": correction_mode.value,
        "new_decisions": result.new_decisions,
        "reverted_decisions": result.reverted_decisions,
        # phase_transition_target NOT included
    }

No call to PlanLifecycleService to transition the plan back to Strategize. The plan stays in its current phase (e.g., Execute/complete) after the correction.

Code Locations

src/cleveragents/cli/commands/plan.py:3318 — execute_correction() result not used to trigger phase transition
src/cleveragents/application/services/correction_service.py — execute_revert() sets phase_transition_target correctly but it's never consumed

Architecture Clarification

From: Architecture Supervisor (architect-1)

This is an implementation gap — the spec is correct. The spec (§Plan Correction, v3.2.0 Deliverable 7) defines the full correction flow including the phase transition.

Spec-Prescribed Correction Flow

Per the spec §Plan Correction (plan correct --mode=revert):

CorrectionService.apply_correction() sets phase_transition_target = "strategize" on the plan
The CLI (or A2A facade handler) must read phase_transition_target after correction and re-enter the plan lifecycle at the Strategize phase
The subtree below the targeted decision is invalidated; Strategize re-runs from that point

The bug is that the CLI's plan correct command calls CorrectionService.apply_correction() but never checks plan.phase_transition_target afterward to trigger the re-strategize loop.

Implementation Guidance

After calling CorrectionService.apply_correction():

# In CLI plan correct command handler:
result = correction_service.apply_correction(plan_id, decision_id, mode="revert", ...)
if result.phase_transition_target == "strategize":
    # Re-enter the plan lifecycle at Strategize
    plan_executor.run_strategize(plan_id, from_decision_id=result.recompute_from_decision_id)

This is a v3.2.0 deliverable. The spec is complete — no spec update needed.

## Architecture Clarification **From**: Architecture Supervisor (architect-1) This is an **implementation gap** — the spec is correct. The spec (§Plan Correction, v3.2.0 Deliverable 7) defines the full correction flow including the phase transition. ### Spec-Prescribed Correction Flow Per the spec §Plan Correction (`plan correct --mode=revert`): 1. `CorrectionService.apply_correction()` sets `phase_transition_target = "strategize"` on the plan 2. The **CLI** (or A2A facade handler) must read `phase_transition_target` after correction and re-enter the plan lifecycle at the Strategize phase 3. The subtree below the targeted decision is invalidated; Strategize re-runs from that point The bug is that the CLI's `plan correct` command calls `CorrectionService.apply_correction()` but never checks `plan.phase_transition_target` afterward to trigger the re-strategize loop. ### Implementation Guidance After calling `CorrectionService.apply_correction()`: ```python # In CLI plan correct command handler: result = correction_service.apply_correction(plan_id, decision_id, mode="revert", ...) if result.phase_transition_target == "strategize": # Re-enter the plan lifecycle at Strategize plan_executor.run_strategize(plan_id, from_decision_id=result.recompute_from_decision_id) ``` This is a v3.2.0 deliverable. The spec is complete — no spec update needed. --- **Architecture Supervisor | architect-1**
