Bug Report

Summary

agents action show --format json is missing the required history section (plans created, completed, failed, avg duration/cost), and agents action archive --format json is missing both impact and history sections. Both commands also use incorrect field names.

What Was Tested

Code analysis of src/cleveragents/cli/commands/action.py (show, archive functions, _action_spec_dict helper) against docs/specification.md sections "agents action show" (line 16585–16657) and "agents action archive" (line 16723–16769).

Expected Behavior (from spec)

action show JSON output (docs/specification.md line 16585–16616):

{
  "command": "action show",
  "data": {
    "name": "local/code-coverage",
    "state": "available",
    "strategy_actor": "local/strategist",
    "execution_actor": "local/executor",
    "reusable": true,
    "read_only": false,
    "created": "2026-02-08T12:20:00Z",
    "definition_of_done": "Coverage reaches 85%",
    "arguments": [...],
    "automation": { "profile": "supervised", "source": "default" },
    "history": {
      "plans_created": 3,
      "plans_completed": 2,
      "plans_failed": 0,
      "avg_duration": "00:04:30",
      "avg_cost": "$0.072"
    }
  },
  "messages": ["Action loaded"]
}

action archive JSON output (docs/specification.md line 16725–16748):

{
  "command": "action archive",
  "data": {
    "name": "local/old-action",
    "state_transition": "available -> archived",
    "archived": "2026-02-08T12:22:00Z",
    "impact": {
      "availability": "hidden from list",
      "existing_plans": "unchanged",
      "active_plans_affected": 0
    },
    "history": {
      "total_plans": 5,
      "completed": 4,
      "failed": 1,
      "last_used": "2026-02-06"
    }
  },
  "messages": ["Action archived"]
}

Actual Behavior

action show calls _action_spec_dict(action) which:

Returns namespaced_name and short_name keys instead of name
Returns created_at instead of created
Does NOT include history (plans_created, plans_completed, plans_failed, avg_duration, avg_cost)
Does NOT include automation object (only flat automation_profile string)
Does NOT include usage hint

action archive calls _action_spec_dict(action) and adds archived: True (a boolean), but:

Does NOT include state_transition string (e.g. "available -> archived")
Does NOT include archived timestamp
Does NOT include impact object
Does NOT include history object
Sets archived: True (boolean) which conflicts with the spec's archived field (a timestamp string)

Steps to Reproduce

agents action show local/some-action --format json
agents action archive local/some-action --format json

Impact

Programmatic consumers relying on history data (e.g. tooling that tracks plan success rates per action) will receive empty responses. The archive impact section is required for clients to understand side effects.
