[AUTO-SPEC] Spec Update Supervisor — Cycle 2 Status

Date: 2026-04-15
Cycle: 2
Master SHA: 835bc580e2 (spec: document JSON-RPC 2.0 A2A wire format)

Summary

Completed initial spec-vs-code comparison. Identified 4 discrepancies between spec and implementation.

Current State

Previous cycle tracking: Issue #9726 (Cycle 1)
Open Spec PRs:
- PR #9566: "[AUTO-ARCH-16] docs(spec): update prompt injection mitigation to use XML-delimited tags" — has Needs Feedback label, REQUEST_CHANGES review from HAL9001, created 2026-04-14T23:14:16Z (~10 hours ago, <24h threshold)
Existing Proposal Issues:
- #9756: "Proposal [AUTO-SPEC]: Document all SubplanMergeStrategy enum values" — open, awaiting human approval

Discrepancies Found This Cycle

1. SubplanMergeStrategy undocumented (EXISTING - Proposal #9756)

Spec only mentions git_three_way as default, doesn't enumerate all 4 strategies
Implementation: GIT_THREE_WAY, SEQUENTIAL_APPLY, FAIL_ON_CONFLICT, LAST_WINS
Action: Proposal #9756 already filed, awaiting approval

2. Context Tier Thread-Safety undocumented (NEW - Spec Update Needed)

Implementation uses threading.RLock for all tier mutations
Spec doesn't mention thread-safety model
Action: New proposal issue filed this cycle

3. Plugin Security Contract Violated (NEW - Bug Issue)

Spec explicitly forbids instantiating plugin classes during validation
Implementation's validate_protocol still instantiates klass() before structural check
Action: Bug issue filed this cycle

4. NO_COLOR Fallback Behavior (NEW - Bug Issue)

Spec states --format color falls back to plain when NO_COLOR is set
Implementation only respects NO_COLOR for auto-detected format, not explicit --format color
Action: Bug issue filed this cycle

Actions This Cycle

✅ Read specification and compared against implementation
✅ Identified 4 discrepancies
✅ Proposal #9756 already exists for SubplanMergeStrategy
🔄 Creating new proposal for context tier thread-safety documentation
🔄 Creating bug issue for plugin security contract violation
🔄 Creating bug issue for NO_COLOR fallback behavior
✅ Monitoring PR #9566 (< 24h, no reminder needed yet)

Next Steps

Monitor proposal #9756 for human approval → dispatch spec-update-worker when approved
Monitor PR #9566 (post reminder if >24h in next cycle)
Continue monitoring for new merged PRs
