  • Commit message: legendary: autonomy hardening workstream b
  • Branch name: legendary/autonomy-hardening-workstream-b

Background and Context

This Legendary issue tracks the full scope of the v3.5.0 M6: Autonomy Hardening milestone. Workstream B encompasses the architectural and safety-critical work required to enable hierarchical plan decomposition, parallel execution pipelines, and validation-gated apply semantics across the CleverAgents runtime.

This workstream consolidates four child Epics:

  • #8423 — Epic: A2A Protocol Integration (v3.5.0)
  • #8424 — Epic: Guard & Safety System (v3.5.0)
  • #8600 — Epic: Validation-Gated Apply & Full Autonomy Acceptance Flow (v3.5.0)
  • #8603 — Epic: Decision Correction Integration for Autonomy Hardening (v3.5.0)

Together, these Epics deliver the foundational autonomy hardening layer that gates the v3.5.0 release.

Expected Behavior

Upon completion of this Legendary:

  • All child Epics (#8423, #8424, #8600, #8603) are closed and their acceptance criteria fully satisfied.
  • The A2A protocol integration layer is production-ready and validated.
  • The Guard & Safety System enforces validation-gated apply semantics across all agent execution paths.
  • Hierarchical plan decomposition and parallel execution are stable and tested.
  • Validation-gated apply is implemented and enforced end-to-end.
  • A realistic porting task completes autonomously with full acceptance flow coverage.
  • Decision correction with selective subtree recomputation is integrated with parallel and hierarchical execution.
  • No regressions introduced to existing agent workflows.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Epic #8423 (A2A Protocol Integration) is merged and all subtasks closed
  • Epic #8424 (Guard & Safety System) is merged and all subtasks closed
  • Epic #8600 (Validation-Gated Apply & Full Autonomy Acceptance Flow) is merged and all subtasks closed
  • Epic #8603 (Decision Correction Integration for Autonomy Hardening) is merged and all subtasks closed
  • Hierarchical plan decomposition is implemented and covered by integration tests
  • Parallel execution pipeline is operational with concurrency controls validated
  • Validation-gated apply semantics are enforced end-to-end
  • Full autonomy acceptance flow passes (realistic porting task completes autonomously)
  • Decision correction with selective subtree recomputation works in hierarchical and parallel execution
  • All CI checks pass on the legendary/autonomy-hardening-workstream-b branch
  • Release notes for v3.5.0 reference this workstream

Subtasks

  • Complete Epic #8423: A2A Protocol Integration
  • Complete Epic #8424: Guard & Safety System
  • Complete Epic #8600: Validation-Gated Apply & Full Autonomy Acceptance Flow
  • Complete Epic #8603: Decision Correction Integration for Autonomy Hardening
  • Validate end-to-end autonomy hardening integration
  • Write/update release notes for v3.5.0 M6
  • Final QA sign-off on Workstream B

Child Epics

  • #8423 — Epic: A2A Protocol Integration (v3.5.0)
  • #8424 — Epic: Guard & Safety System (v3.5.0)
  • #8600 — Epic: Validation-Gated Apply & Full Autonomy Acceptance Flow (v3.5.0)
  • #8603 — Epic: Decision Correction Integration for Autonomy Hardening (v3.5.0)

Definition of Done

This Legendary issue should be closed when:

  1. All child Epics (#8423, #8424, #8600, #8603) are fully closed.
  2. All acceptance criteria above are checked off.
  3. The v3.5.0 milestone is marked complete.
  4. A release tag for v3.5.0 has been created and the changelog updated.

[AUTO-OWNR-5] Triage Decision

Status: Verified

MoSCoW: Must Have
Priority: Critical

Rationale: This Legendary issue is the top-level tracking item for the entire v3.5.0 M6: Autonomy Hardening milestone. It consolidates Epics #8423 (A2A Protocol Integration) and #8424 (Guard & Safety System), which together deliver the foundational autonomy hardening layer that gates the v3.5.0 release. The milestone goal — hierarchical plan decomposition with 4+ levels, parallel execution scaling to 10+ concurrent subplans, and validation-gated apply semantics — cannot ship without this workstream. Critical priority and Must Have classification are non-negotiable for a release-gating Legendary.

Next Steps: Ensure child Epics #8423 and #8424 are actively progressing. All acceptance criteria (A2A facade, event queue, guard enforcement, parallel execution, autonomy acceptance flow) must be satisfied before v3.5.0 can be closed. Assign implementation workers to any unassigned child tasks and track progress against the milestone due date.

🆕 New Epics Added to Autonomy Hardening Workstream B

Two new Epics have been created and linked to this Legendary as part of the v3.5.0 Autonomy Hardening planning pass:

Issue Title Labels Milestone
#8600 Epic: Validation-Gated Apply & Full Autonomy Acceptance Flow (v3.5.0) Type/Epic Priority/Critical MoSCoW/Must have State/Verified v3.5.0
#8603 Epic: Decision Correction Integration for Autonomy Hardening (v3.5.0) Type/Epic Priority/Critical MoSCoW/Must have State/Verified v3.5.0

Summary

  • #8600 covers validation-gated apply semantics and the full autonomy acceptance flow — a realistic porting task completing autonomously with hierarchical decomposition (4+ levels), parallel execution (10+ concurrent subplans), and decision correction.
  • #8603 covers the integration of the v3.2.0 decision correction engine (selective subtree recomputation) with the v3.5.0 parallel execution and hierarchical decomposition features, including race condition prevention and correction propagation to child subplans.

The body of this Legendary has been updated to reflect all four child Epics (#8423, #8424, #8600, #8603).
