Summary
This PR implements the
agents plan correctcommand with two correction modes—revert and append—enabling users to correct plan execution at specific decision points without losing the entire plan. The revert mode discards downstream decisions and re-executes the LLM from the target decision with optional guidance, while the append mode injects guidance into the decision context without re-execution. Both modes integrate with the decision tree persistence layer introduced in v3.2.0 and provide users with flexible recovery options when plan execution diverges from desired outcomes.Changes

Code Review: REQUEST CHANGES
Review Focus: api-consistency, naming-conventions, code-patterns
This is a follow-up review. The PR remains on the same commit (
6a5e356) as the previous REQUEST_CHANGES review. Issues identified previously are unresolved, and this review adds deeper analysis of code patterns, API consistency, and naming conventions.Persistent Blockers (still unresolved)
API Consistency Issues
1. CorrectionService imported but never invoked
The CorrectionService is instantiated in the @given step but never called in any @when step. All @when steps manipulate context.plans directly instead of delegating to the service. The tests do not exercise the application service API at all.
2. target_decision_id vs decision_id naming inconsistency
Three layers use different names for the same concept. Must be consistent.
3. --dry-run flag not in issue specification
Issue #9286 does not mention --dry-run anywhere. This is a spec deviation - new behavior must be spec-first (documented in docs/specification.md and reflected in the issue).
Code Pattern Issues
4. @then steps are no-ops - they do not assert behavior
Multiple @then steps merely set context variables without assertions:
These steps would pass even if the implementation is completely broken.
5. Decision ID validation missing from @when steps
step_invoke_plan_correct_basic only checks plan_id not in context.plans - never validates decision_id. The error_decision_not_found assertion will always fail because context.last_error will be None for a valid plan with invalid decision ID.
6. Plan status validation missing from @when steps
step_plan_with_status sets plan status but step_invoke_plan_correct_basic never reads it. The step_error_plan_not_correctable assertion will always fail.
7. CorrectionRequest.dry_run field used without definition
dry_run=True is passed to CorrectionRequest but the domain model is not defined in this PR. This will raise TypeError at runtime.
Naming Convention Issues
8. Feature file name does not follow command path convention
File is named plan_correct_revert_append_modes.feature. Convention is _.feature (e.g., plan_tree.feature, plan_explain.feature). Correct name: plan_correct.feature - modes are scenarios within the feature, not part of the file name.
9. Step file name should match feature file name
If feature file is renamed to plan_correct.feature, step file should be plan_correct_steps.py.

This is the third review of PR #9799. The PR remains on the same commit (
6a5e356) as the two previous REQUEST_CHANGES reviews. None of the previously identified issues have been addressed.❌ FAILING CRITERIA
1. CI Checks Failing
Workflow run confirms FAILURE status on HEAD commit
6a5e356. All CI gates (lint, unit_tests, status-check) must pass before merge. This alone blocks approval.2. Missing Implementation Files — PR is Incomplete
This PR contains only BDD test files. The following implementation files are absent:

CorrectionService,CorrectionMode, andCorrectionRequest— none of which exist in the repository. The CI failures are a direct consequence of this.3. No Milestone Assigned
PR milestone is
null. Issue #9286 targets v3.2.0. The PR must have the matching milestone assigned.4. No Labels
PR labels are empty (

Implementation Attempt — Tier 0: gpt5-mini — Failed
I created an isolated clone of the PR branch
feat/plan-correct-revert-append-modesat/tmp/task-implementor-1745788800/repoand executed the project quality gates locally. Summary of actions and results:What I changed: I fixed failing unit test infrastructure issues in
features/steps/plan_correct_revert_append_modes_steps.pyby merging two ambiguous@whenstep definitions into a single handler (to remove an AmbiguousStep), and removed a duplicate@then('the affected decisions should be ...')step that conflicted with an existingcorrection_flows_steps.pydefinition. These edits resolved the Behave ambiguous-step errors and allowed the unit test suite to pass locally.Integration failures (details):
plan explain <plan_id>exited with rc=1 (timed out / non-zero). The helper reports that the CLI still treats the argument as adecision_id(Bug #968) rather than falling back to listing decisions by plan_id — therefore the command fails to render the expected root question. See robot report:build/reports/robot/pabot_results/267/output.xml.-9 != 0in the Robot logs). This looks like the helper subprocesses were killed (exit -9) or terminated unexpectedly; further investigation of the suite logs is required. See robot report:build/reports/robot/pabot_results/275/output.xml.CLI Project Link Resource) also returned a non-zero/killed exit — likely related to the same underlying issue causing subprocess terminations. See robot report:build/reports/robot/pabot_results/131/output.xml.Diagnosis and next steps: the immediate unit-test failures were caused by ambiguous/duplicate step definitions and have been fixed. The remaining failing integration tests are functional regressions (CLI behavior and subprocess lifecycle) that require code changes in the CLI service layer and/or the command handlers (e.g., ensure
plan explainaccepts a plan_id and resolves to decisions; investigate why helper subprocesses are returning -9/timeouts). I did not push any commits because not all quality gates passed — per contributing rules, I will not push or force-push until all gates are green.Artifacts and logs: I ran the tests in
/tmp/task-implementor-1745788800/repo. Robot reports underbuild/reports/robot/pabot_results/contain full failure traces and helper stdout/stderr.Automated by CleverAgents Bot

📋 Estimate: tier 1.
Multi-file security fix (5 files: LSP transport, BDD feature file, BDD steps, CHANGELOG, CONTRIBUTORS). The BDD steps fix is non-trivial — correcting select() 3-tuple return contract and removing an unregistered parse type requires understanding the test harness internals. CI is still failing, but the failing tests (actor_run_signature.feature, plan_service_coverage.feature, tdd_memory_service_entity_persistence.feature) are in unrelated subsystems, suggesting either pre-existing failures or an import-level side-effect from the steps file changes. Implementer needs cross-file context to triage whether these are pre-existing or regressed. Standard tier-1 scope.
Consolidate the four extended @when variants (with guidance, without --yes, with --yes, with --dry-run) into a single @when step that reads option flags from context variables set by @given steps. Behave's registration-time conflict detection uses re.search without end anchors, so the base mode "{mode}" pattern falsely matched all four longer variants as prefixes. Also: - Add decision ID validation to the @when step so the "decision not found" scenario actually raises an error instead of silently passing - Rename "affected decisions" @then step to avoid pattern collision with the identical step already defined in correction_flows_steps.py - Fix ruff format violations (wrapped long decorator and assertion lines) ISSUES CLOSED: #9286(attempt #4, tier 1)

New feature implementation with a CorrectionEngine class, decision tree pruning logic, CLI subcommand, state machine transitions, and DB persistence integration (291 LOC additive across 2 files). CI is failing on integration tests (Actor-related tests unrelated to plan correction surface) and a unit test (CheckpointRepository prune scenario), requiring cross-cutting failure diagnosis. Touches new logic, new tests, and requires understanding of the v3.2.0 decision tree persistence layer. Clearly non-mechanical, cross-file, test-touching engineering work.
