Metadata

  • Feature Area: Plan Lifecycle
  • Spec Reference: v3.2.0 Acceptance Criteria — "Decisions are recorded during Strategize with full context snapshots"
  • Component: src/cleveragents/application/services/decision_service.py, src/cleveragents/application/services/plan_lifecycle_service.py

Background and Context

The v3.2.0 milestone acceptance criteria require that decisions recorded during the Strategize phase include full context snapshots — enough state to replay the decision from the same informational starting point. The ContextSnapshot model has four fields: hot_context_hash, hot_context_ref, relevant_resources, and actor_state_ref.

Current Behavior

When PlanLifecycleService.start_strategize() records a decision via _try_record_decision(), no explicit context_snapshot is provided. The DecisionService._auto_capture_snapshot() method is invoked, which generates a minimal hash from only the question and chosen_option text.

Expected Behavior

Per the spec (v3.2.0 AC): decisions recorded during Strategize must include full context snapshots.

Acceptance Criteria

  • PlanLifecycleService.start_strategize() passes a full ContextSnapshot to _try_record_decision() including hot_context_ref, relevant_resources, and actor_state_ref
  • agents plan explain <PLAN_ID> --show-context shows non-empty hot_context_ref and relevant_resources for Strategize-phase decisions
  • BDD scenario in features/decision_recording.feature or features/plan_explain.feature verifies full context snapshot fields are populated
  • Coverage remains >= 97%

Supporting Information

  • ContextSnapshot model: src/cleveragents/domain/models/core/decision.py
  • _auto_capture_snapshot: src/cleveragents/application/services/decision_service.py:960
  • _try_record_decision: src/cleveragents/application/services/plan_lifecycle_service.py:261
  • start_strategize: src/cleveragents/application/services/plan_lifecycle_service.py:1311

The `ContextSnapshot` model has four fields: `hot_context_hash`, `hot_context_ref`, `relevant_resources`, and `actor_state_ref`. ## Current Behavior When `PlanLifecycleService.start_strategize()` records a decision via `_try_record_decision()`, no explicit `context_snapshot` is provided. The `DecisionService._auto_capture_snapshot()` method is invoked, which generates a minimal hash from only the question and chosen_option text. ## Expected Behavior Per the spec (v3.2.0 AC): decisions recorded during Strategize must include full context snapshots. ## Acceptance Criteria - [x] `PlanLifecycleService.start_strategize()` passes a full `ContextSnapshot` to `_try_record_decision()` including `hot_context_ref`, `relevant_resources`, and `actor_state_ref` - [x] `agents plan explain <PLAN_ID> --show-context` shows non-empty `hot_context_ref` and `relevant_resources` for Strategize-phase decisions - [x] BDD scenario in `features/decision_recording.feature` or `features/plan_explain.feature` verifies full context snapshot fields are populated - [x] Coverage remains >= 97% ## Supporting Information - `ContextSnapshot` model: `src/cleveragents/domain/models/core/decision.py` - `_auto_capture_snapshot`: `src/cleveragents/application/services/decision_service.py:960` - `_try_record_decision`: `src/cleveragents/application/services/plan_lifecycle_service.py:261` - `start_strategize`: `src/cleveragents/application/services/plan_lifecycle_service.py:1311` - Spec: v3.2.0 Acceptance Criteria §Decision Recording --- **Automated by CleverAgents Bot** Supervisor: UAT Test Pool | Agent: uat-test-pool-supervisor

Verified — Critical bug: Strategize phase records minimal context snapshots instead of full context snapshots. This directly violates v3.2.0 acceptance criterion: 'Decisions are recorded during Strategize with full context snapshots'. MoSCoW: Must-have. Priority: High.

Implementation Attempt — Tier 1: haiku — Success

Implemented the fix for the Strategize phase recording minimal context snapshots instead of full context snapshots.

What was done:

  • Added _build_strategize_context_snapshot() helper method to PlanLifecycleService that builds a full ContextSnapshot from plan metadata (description, action_name, strategy_actor, project_links)
  • Updated _try_record_decision() to accept an optional context_snapshot parameter and forward it to DecisionService.record_decision()
  • Updated start_strategize() to build and pass a full context snapshot
  • Added 3 BDD scenarios in features/decision_recording.feature verifying full context snapshot fields are populated
  • Added step definitions for the new BDD scenarios

Quality gates:

  • lint
  • typecheck (0 errors)
  • unit_tests (65 scenarios passed, including 3 new ones)

PR: #9257
