Metadata

  • Commit Message: fix(cli): implement agents plan tree command for decision tree rendering
  • Branch: fix/plan-tree-cli-command

Background and Context

The v3.2.0 specification requires that agents plan tree <plan-id> renders the decision tree for a given plan. This command is listed as a required feature in the spec:

agents plan tree <plan-id> renders decision tree correctly

During UAT testing of the Decision Model and Validation Pipeline feature area, it was confirmed that the agents plan tree subcommand does not exist in the CLI. The plan.py command module only registers the following commands: use, list, status, execute, apply, cancel, diff, artifacts, errors. There is no tree subcommand.

The A2A facade does expose a _cleveragents/plan/tree operation, but this is only accessible via the A2A protocol layer — there is no corresponding agents plan tree CLI command that users can invoke directly.

Current Behavior

Running agents plan tree <plan-id> results in an error:

Error: Invalid command 'tree'
Try 'cleveragents --help' for help.

The agents plan --help output does not list a tree subcommand.

Expected Behavior

agents plan tree <plan-id> should render the decision tree for the specified plan, showing the hierarchical structure of decisions made during the Strategize phase. The output should include:

  • Decision nodes with their type, question, and chosen option
  • Parent-child relationships between decisions
  • BFS-ordered tree rendering

Acceptance Criteria

  • agents plan tree <plan-id> command exists and is registered in the plan CLI app
  • The command fetches the decision tree via DecisionService.get_tree(plan_id)
  • The tree is rendered in a human-readable hierarchical format (rich/text)
  • --format json outputs a JSON representation of the tree
  • Non-existent plan IDs return a clear error message
  • The command is listed in agents plan --help

Supporting Information

  • Spec v3.2.0: "agents plan tree <plan-id> renders decision tree correctly"
  • Source file: src/cleveragents/cli/commands/plan.py — no tree command registered
  • The A2A facade has _cleveragents/plan/tree but no CLI binding
  • Robot test file robot/plan_correct_tree_wiring.robot tests tree wiring but not the CLI command itself
  • Integration tests: Decision Model suite PASSED (38.5s), Decision Recording PASSED (59.1s)

Subtasks

  • Add tree subcommand to src/cleveragents/cli/commands/plan.py
  • Implement tree rendering logic using DecisionService.get_tree()
  • Add --format flag support (rich, json, yaml, plain)
  • Tests (Behave): Add scenarios for agents plan tree CLI command
  • Tests (Robot): Add integration test for agents plan tree command
  • Update agents plan --help documentation
  • Verify coverage >=97% via nox -s coverage_report
  • Run nox (all default sessions), fix any errors

Definition of Done

This issue is complete when:

  • All subtasks above are completed and checked off.
  • A Git commit is created where the first line of the commit message matches the Commit Message in Metadata exactly, followed by a blank line, then additional lines providing relevant details about the implementation.
  • The commit is pushed to the remote on the branch matching the Branch in Metadata exactly.
  • The commit is submitted as a pull request to master, reviewed, and merged before this issue is marked done.

Triage Decision

Status: Verified
Type: Bug
MoSCoW: Must Have
Priority: High
Milestone: v3.5.0
Points: 3

Rationale: agents plan tree <plan-id> is a spec-required CLI command (v3.2.0) that is entirely absent from the CLI despite the A2A facade having the operation; this is a Must Have fix as the decision tree view is a core product feature.
