What was tested

The agents invariant add command with --plan and --action flags.

Expected behavior

Per the specification (§agents invariant add):

--plan PLAN_ID: Attach to a plan (plan-level invariant). Repeatable.
--action ACTION: Attach to an action (action-level invariant). Repeatable.

The spec explicitly states these flags are repeatable, allowing the same invariant to be attached to multiple plans or actions in a single command:

agents invariant add --plan PLAN_01 --plan PLAN_02 "All tests must pass"
agents invariant add --action local/deploy --action local/build "No unsafe operations"

The spec command signature is:

agents invariant add [--global] [(--project|-p) PROJECT] [--plan PLAN_ID]...
                     [--action ACTION]... <INVARIANT_TEXT>

Note the ... after [--plan PLAN_ID] and [--action ACTION] indicating repeatability.

Actual behavior

The implementation uses str | None for both flags, accepting only a single value:

# src/cleveragents/cli/commands/invariant.py
plan: Annotated[str | None, typer.Option("--plan", help="Plan ID (ULID)")] = None,
action: Annotated[str | None, typer.Option("--action", help="Action name")] = None,

Attempting to pass multiple --plan flags causes the last value to silently override the previous ones (typer behavior for non-list options). Only one plan/action receives the invariant.

Steps to reproduce

agents invariant add --plan PLAN_01 --plan PLAN_02 "All tests must pass"
# Expected: invariant attached to both PLAN_01 and PLAN_02
# Actual: invariant attached only to PLAN_02 (last value wins)

Code location

  • src/cleveragents/cli/commands/invariant.pyadd() function, lines ~119-122
  • _resolve_scope() helper — only handles a single plan or action value

Fix required

Change plan and action parameters to list[str] with typer.Option("--plan") using List annotation, and update _resolve_scope to iterate and create multiple invariants.
