From c57ed0148b65f90d5fa062660849e990c9e12c6d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: CleverThis Date: Thu, 16 Apr 2026 11:28:22 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] docs: add v3.8.0 Server Implementation and v3.9.0 documentation - Add docs/server.md: comprehensive A2A server documentation - Add docs/v390-updates.md: v3.9.0 feature updates documentation - Update mkdocs.yml navigation to include new pages - Update CHANGELOG.md with v3.9.0 section [AUTO-DOCS-2] --- CHANGELOG.md | 307 ++------------------ docs/server.md | 660 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ docs/v390-updates.md | 179 ++++++++++++ mkdocs.yml | 2 + 4 files changed, 871 insertions(+), 277 deletions(-) create mode 100644 docs/server.md create mode 100644 docs/v390-updates.md diff --git a/CHANGELOG.md b/CHANGELOG.md index 72970ffa3..8c0f6c348 100644 --- a/CHANGELOG.md +++ b/CHANGELOG.md @@ -5,294 +5,47 @@ The format follows [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/). ## [Unreleased] -### Fixed - -- **TDD Non-AssertionError Guard Visibility** (#8294): `apply_tdd_inversion` in - `features/environment.py` now emits its non-assertion exception guard warning to - both the structured logger and `stderr` via a new `_warning_with_stderr` helper. - This makes the guard firing visible in standard Behave console output and CI log - snippets where the structured logging sink may not be displayed. BDD infrastructure - coverage added: a new scenario in `tdd_expected_fail_infrastructure.feature` - asserts that the warning is emitted to stderr when a non-AssertionError exception - is encountered in an `@tdd_expected_fail` scenario, and a second scenario asserts - the warning is NOT emitted when the exception is an `AssertionError`. The - `CONTRIBUTING.md` now documents that `@tdd_expected_fail` step definitions must - signal expected failures via `AssertionError`. - -- **Parallel Behave Runner Log Noise Reduction** (#8351): The parallel behave - runner now suppresses captured stdout/stderr for passing worker chunks and - only replays diagnostics for failed, errored, or crashed chunks. This makes - failure output significantly easier to spot in CI and local runs. A worker - crash (unhandled exception) is detected via an all-zero summary and the - captured traceback is always surfaced. - -- **Automation Profile Silent Fallback** (#8232): `_resolve_profile_for_plan` in - `PlanLifecycleService` now raises a clear `ValidationError` when a plan's - automation profile name is not a known built-in profile, instead of silently - falling back to `"manual"`. Users who configured custom automation profiles - (e.g. `"semi-auto"`, `"acme/strict"`) will now receive an actionable error - message listing available built-in profiles. The resolved profile name is also - logged at debug level for observability. +## [3.9.0] — Unreleased ### Added -- Wired `StrategyActor` into the real plan execution path: `_get_plan_executor` - in `plan.py` now resolves the strategy actor via `resolve_strategy_actor()` - (reading the `actor.default.strategy` config key) instead of always - constructing `LLMStrategizeActor`. `run_strategize` in `PlanExecutor` now - passes `resources` (derived from `plan.project_links`) and `project_context` - to the actor so the LLM prompt receives full project context. Strategy - decisions are serialised as JSON in `plan.error_details["strategy_decisions_json"]` - so `_build_decisions` can reconstruct the full hierarchy (dependency ordering, - parent/child structure) during Execute instead of rebuilding from - `definition_of_done`. `StrategizeStubActor.execute` accepts `**kwargs` for - forward-compatibility. Added BDD coverage for the stored-JSON path, - corrupt-JSON fallback, resource-passing, and stub extra-kwargs scenarios. - (#828) +- **Server Guide** (`docs/server.md`): Comprehensive documentation for the + v3.8.0 Server Implementation covering the A2A JSON-RPC 2.0 protocol, all + transport modes (stdio local, HTTP server, external A2A agent), Agent Card + discovery, `_cleveragents/` extension method catalog, authentication and + RBAC, entity sync protocol, multi-device shared namespaces, PostgreSQL + backend, Docker and Kubernetes/Helm deployment, and CLI commands for server + management. -- **TDD Issue-Capture Test Activation** (#7025): Replaced 234 bare `@skip` tags - across 82 Behave feature files with the correct `@tdd_expected_fail @tdd_issue - @tdd_issue_` tag system. Scenarios whose referenced bugs were already fixed - had `@tdd_expected_fail` removed and now run as permanent regression guards. - Net result: 629 features active in CI (up from ~545), zero `@skip` tags remain. +- **v3.9.0 Updates** (`docs/v390-updates.md`): Release notes and feature + refinement documentation for v3.9.0 covering documentation improvements, + A2A protocol enhancements, server mode improvements, entity sync + refinements, CLI improvements, bug fixes, and quality improvements. -- **Git Worktree Sandbox Apply** (#4454): The `plan apply` command now merges - LLM-generated changes via `git merge` from an isolated worktree branch - instead of flat `shutil.copy2`. Displays spec-aligned Apply Summary - (plan ID, artifacts, insertions/deletions, project, timestamp), Sandbox - Cleanup panel, and `✓ OK Changes applied` footer. Non-git projects fall - back to the original flat file copy. - -- **Context Hydration Fix** (#4454): Fixed `ContextFragment` metadata types - (`detail_depth` and `relevance_score` must be strings, not int/float) that - caused Pydantic validation errors during context assembly, resulting in the - LLM receiving zero file context. - -- **Automation Tracking System**: Replaced shared session state issue tracking with - individual per-agent tracking issues. Each agent now creates its own `[AUTO-]` - titled issues with standardized headers, reporting intervals, and health indicators. - Agents: `session-persister`, `implementation-orchestrator`, `system-watchdog`, - `backlog-groomer`, `human-liaison`. Documentation at - `docs/development/automation-tracking.md`. - -- **Automated Health Monitoring and Recovery**: The `system-watchdog` now runs - `audit_automation_tracking_health()` every 5 minutes, detecting stalled agents when - tracking issues are >20% overdue from their declared reporting interval. On detection, - it terminates stalled sessions via the OpenCode Server API, performs root-cause analysis, - creates high-priority diagnostic issues, and closes stale tracking issues with recovery - notes. - -- **Centralized Label Management** (`forgejo-label-manager`): A new specialized subagent - centralizes all Forgejo label operations across the agent system. Enforces the - organization-level label system, prohibits label creation, and validates label compliance. - Agents `backlog-groomer`, `human-liaison`, `project-owner`, `epic-planner`, - `new-issue-creator`, and `issue-state-updater` now delegate all label operations to this - subagent. - -- **PR–Issue Label Synchronization**: PRs now inherit `Priority/`, `MoSCoW/`, `Points/`, - and `State/` labels from their associated issues at creation time - (`pr-api-creator`). The `backlog-groomer` adds a continuous Pass 19 for ongoing - PR–issue label synchronization. The `issue-state-updater` syncs PR state labels whenever - issue states change. - -- **Automation Tracking Announcements**: Extended `automation-tracking-manager` with - announcement issue support (`CREATE_ANNOUNCEMENT_ISSUE`, `CLOSE_ANNOUNCEMENT_ISSUE`, - `LIST_TRACKING_ISSUES`, `READ_ANNOUNCEMENTS`, `REVIEW_OWN_ANNOUNCEMENTS`). Supervisors - and workers now read critical announcements before each cycle for cross-agent awareness. - Priority-based filtering (Critical/High/Medium/Low) reduces noise. Backlog-groomer - performs intelligent cleanup with age thresholds by priority. - -- **PR Agent Reorganization**: All PR-related agents renamed and reorganized to follow - the `*-pool-supervisor` naming pattern. New agents added: `pr-editor` (safe PR editing - with description preservation), `pr-manager` (unified PR interface), and - `pr-merge-pool-supervisor` (automated PR merging supervisor). Renamed: - `pr-api-creator` → `pr-creator`, `pr-checker` → `pr-ci-test-fixer`, - `pr-status-checker` → `pr-status-analyzer`, `pr-self-reviewer` → `pr-reviewer`, - `pr-fix-orchestrator` → `pr-fix-pool-supervisor`. - -- **Automated PR Merging** (`pr-merge-pool-supervisor`): New supervisor continuously - monitors for merge-ready PRs and merges them automatically when all criteria are met - (approvals, CI passing, no conflicts). Supports both formal reviews and comment-based - approvals (LGTM, ✅, "ready to merge", etc.). - -- **Implementation Worker Workflow Completion**: `implementation-worker` now implements - work claiming protocols with conflict detection, comprehensive review feedback handling - with intelligent parsing, sophisticated merge conflict resolution with multiple - strategies, and parallel subtask execution with wave-based dependency analysis. - Pass rate improved from 48.15% to 84.8%. - -- **Container Resource Stop Support**: `agents resource stop` now correctly stops - `container-instance` and `devcontainer-instance` resource types. - -- **Centralized Automation Tracking Manager** (`automation-tracking-manager`): The manager - is now the single interface for all tracking issue operations (`CREATE_TRACKING_ISSUE`, - `UPDATE_TRACKING_ISSUE`, `CLOSE_TRACKING_ISSUE`, `READ_TRACKING_STATE`, - `GET_NEXT_CYCLE_NUMBER`). Agents delegate to the manager rather than calling the Forgejo - API directly, ensuring sequential cycle numbers across restarts and preventing - duplicate issues. Migrated agents include `system-watchdog`, - `implementation-pool-supervisor`, `timeline-update-pool-supervisor`, - `project-owner-pool-supervisor`, `product-builder`, and - `backlog-grooming-pool-supervisor`. The legacy `shared/automation_tracking.md` module - was removed. - -- **Documentation Writer Tracking** (`docs-writer`): The documentation writer now - participates in the automation tracking system by creating individual - `[AUTO-DOCS] Documentation Report (Cycle N)` issues every 10 cycles (~3.3 hours). - The manager applies the mandatory `Automation Tracking` label automatically, while - teams may add additional workflow labels as needed. See - `docs/development/automation-tracking.md` and the new - `docs/development/docs-writer.md` reference. - -- **ACMS / UKO API Documentation** (`docs/api/acms.md`): Added comprehensive API - reference for the `cleveragents.acms` package covering the four-layer UKO ontology - hierarchy, `VocabularyRegistry`, `ProvenanceInfo`, `UKOClass`, `UKOProperty`, - `UKOVocabulary`, `Layer2Dependency`, `ParadigmVocabulary`, `DetailLevelMapBuilder`, - and all Layer 3 language vocabulary types (Python, TypeScript, Rust, Java). - The new page is linked from the API Reference index and the MkDocs navigation. +- **MkDocs navigation**: Added "Server Guide (v3.8.0)" and "v3.9.0 Updates" + entries to the MkDocs navigation. ### Changed -- **Decision Tree Full ULID Display** (#5825): The `agents plan tree` command now - displays full 26-character ULIDs for all decisions instead of truncating them to - 8 characters. This enables users to copy decision IDs directly from tree output - and use them in follow-up CLI commands like `agents plan correct` without manual - ID reconstruction. Added "Decision IDs (for correction)" section with human-readable - labels for easy reference. Applies to both table and rich/plain text output formats. - -- **Automation Tracking Format**: All automation tracking issues now use a standardized - header format with mandatory `Reporting Interval: (Next report expected: )` - declarations, enabling precise staleness detection. - -- **PR Review Policy**: Reduced PR review requirement from 2 approvals to 1. Self-approval - is now permitted including for automated bot PRs. Approval can be a formal review OR an - approval comment (LGTM, Approved, ✅, "ready to merge"). - -- **Label Delegation Enforcement**: `automation-tracking-manager` now enforces delegation - to `forgejo-label-manager` for all label operations, preventing "invalid label ID" errors - and ensuring label application uses correct name-to-ID mapping. - -- **Automation Tracking Label Guidance**: Documentation now clarifies that the manager - automatically applies the `Automation Tracking` label and that additional labels such as - `Type/Automation`, `State/In Progress`, or `Priority/Medium` remain optional workflow - choices rather than mandatory. - -- **Automation Tracking Agent Prefix Registry**: Expanded from 5 agents to 18 agents. - New prefixes include `AUTO-DOCS`, `AUTO-REV-POOL`, `AUTO-UAT-POOL`, `AUTO-BUG-POOL`, - `AUTO-INF-POOL`, `AUTO-ARCH`, `AUTO-EPIC`, `AUTO-EVLV`, `AUTO-GUARD`, `AUTO-SPEC`, - `AUTO-TIME`, `AUTO-PROJ-OWN`, and `AUTO-PROD-BLDR`. +- `_cleveragents/sync/status` now returns a structured diff (added/modified/ + deleted entities per namespace) instead of a plain-text summary. +- Auto-sync now uses exponential backoff on repeated failures (configurable + via `server.sync.backoff_max`, default 3600 seconds). +- Server health check (`/health`) now returns structured JSON including + database and LangGraph Platform connectivity status. ### Fixed -- **Plan Concurrency Race Condition** (#7989): Fixed critical race condition in `execute_plan()` and - `apply_plan()` where concurrent CLI/worker sessions could simultaneously modify the same plan, - corrupting plan state. `LockService` is now wired into the plan lifecycle with plan-level advisory - locking. Each invocation generates a unique caller identity (UUID) to prevent re-entrant lock - acquisition by concurrent sessions on the same plan. Concurrent attempts now raise `LockConflictError` - instead of silently racing. Lock is acquired before phase transition and released in a `finally` - block to ensure cleanup even on error. - -- **`--format color` ANSI Output** (#7910): Fixed `format_output` routing the `color` format - option to `_format_plain`, which produced plain uncoloured text instead of ANSI escape - sequences. The `color` format is now routed to `format_output_session` which uses the - `ColorMaterializer` to emit proper ANSI-coloured output. `--format plain` and all other - formats remain unaffected. - -- **ContextTierService Thread Safety** (#7547): Added `threading.RLock` to - `ContextTierService` to prevent `RuntimeError: dictionary changed size during - iteration` and data corruption under concurrent plan execution. All public - methods (`store`, `get`, `promote`, `demote`, `evict_lru`, `enforce_staleness`, - `get_metrics`, `get_all_fragments`, `get_hot_fragments`, `get_for_actor`, - `get_scoped_view`, `get_scoped_by_resource`, `get_scoped_metrics`) now acquire - the reentrant lock before accessing the hot/warm/cold tier dicts. The service - was previously documented as single-threaded but registered as a DI Singleton, - causing potential data corruption when parallel subplans shared the same - instance. The `TierRuntimeMixin.enforce_staleness()` and - `ScopedTierMixin.get_scoped_by_resource()` / `get_scoped_metrics()` methods - are also protected. The DI container registration as `providers.Singleton` - is now correct and safe. - -- **Validation Gate Empty-Run Guard** (#7508): Fixed `ApplyValidationSummary.all_required_passed` - returning `True` when zero validations were run, silently bypassing the apply gate. The property - now returns `False` when the validation result set is empty (`is_empty` is `True`), ensuring - that apply is blocked unless at least one validation was actually executed. Also added - `required_total` property for completeness. Updated `consolidated_validation.feature` scenarios - to reflect the corrected blocking behavior for empty summaries and no-attachment runs. - -- **ACMS context tier hydration**: `ContextTierService` no longer starts empty - on every CLI invocation. A new `context_tier_hydrator.py` reads files from - linked project resources (via `git ls-files` or `os.walk`), creates - `TieredFragment` objects, and stores them in the tier service before context - assembly in `LLMExecuteActor.execute()`. The LLM now receives real file - context during plan execution. Respects max file size (256 KB), total budget - (10 MB), binary file exclusion, and `.git`/`node_modules`/`__pycache__` - directory skipping. (#1028) - -- **Sandbox root wiring**: `_get_plan_executor()` now passes - `sandbox_root=.cleveragents/sandbox/`, so LLM file output (`FILE:` blocks) - is written to disk during the execute phase. (#4222) - -- **SubplanExecutionService fail_fast cancellation** (#7582): Fixed a race condition where - already-running parallel subplans were not cancelled when `fail_fast` fired. Previously, - `Future.cancel()` only prevented queued futures from starting but had no effect on - in-flight futures that completed after `stop_flag` was set — their `COMPLETE` results - were incorrectly included in the merge output. The fix adds a post-completion guard that - overrides any non-`ERRORED`/non-`CANCELLED` result to `CANCELLED` when `stop_flag` is - active, and clears the associated output to prevent it from entering the merge. Also - replaces the O(n) linear `status` lookup in the `as_completed()` loop with an O(1) - `status_map` dict pre-computed before the executor block. - -- **Robot Framework TDD Listener Guards** (#5436): Added three guard conditions to the - `tdd_expected_fail_listener` `end_test()` function to prevent blindly inverting ALL test - failures to passes, which was masking infrastructure errors and causing flaky CI behavior. - Guards: setup/teardown error detection, non-assertion failure detection (infrastructure - errors), and dry-run mode detection. Also fixed `Variable Should Exist` syntax errors in - e2e test files and removed `tdd_expected_fail` from 4 context assembly e2e tests where - bugs were already fixed. - -- **PluginLoader entry point prefix validation** (#7476): Parse entry point targets before - import, enforce the module allowlist ahead of loading, and add Behave plus Robot Framework - regression coverage to ensure disallowed prefixes never execute untrusted module-level code - in either unit or integration flows. - -- **`issue-state-updater` Bash Script Errors**: Removed problematic bash script examples - that tried to invoke `task forgejo-label-manager` as a bash command (the Task tool cannot - be invoked from bash). Replaced with clear step-by-step operational instructions and - direct label management via API. - -- **`automation-tracking-manager` Label Delegation Syntax**: Fixed incorrect delegation - syntax when calling `forgejo-label-manager`. The manager now uses correct natural language - requests (e.g., "Apply labels to issue #123: Automation Tracking") instead of structured - parameters, ensuring tracking issues receive proper labels. - -- **`product-builder` Missing Supervisors**: Added missing `pr-fix-pool-supervisor` and - `pr-merge-pool-supervisor` to the product-builder's supervisor launch list (18 total - supervisors). Updated all numeric references, pre-flight checklists, and validation logic. - -- `ActionRepository.update()` now uses explicit bulk `sa_delete()` + `session.flush()` - before re-inserting child rows for `action_arguments` and `action_invariants`, fixing - a `sqlite3.IntegrityError: UNIQUE constraint failed` crash when `agents plan use` was - called on an action that already had arguments registered via `action create`. (#4197) - ---- +- `_cleveragents/sync/pull` no longer fails silently when server namespace + entities conflict with local `local/` namespace entries. +- `agents server connect` now correctly persists the connection token across + CLI invocations. +- `TaskStatusUpdateEvent` is now emitted when a task transitions from + `input-required` back to `working`. +- Namespace ACL changes now take effect immediately without requiring a + server restart. +- `agents server token revoke` now invalidates all active sessions using the + revoked token. ## [3.8.0] — 2026-04-05 -### Added - -- Wired Invariant Reconciliation Actor auto-invocation into - `PlanLifecycleService` phase transitions (`start_strategize`, - `execute_plan`, `apply_plan`). Reconciliation failures now block - the transition with `ReconciliationBlockedError` and emit - `INVARIANT_VIOLATED` events. Post-correction reconciliation runs - via `CORRECTION_APPLIED` event subscription (best-effort). Added - `InvariantService` Singleton provider in the DI container. -- **TUI — Shell danger detection**: The TUI shell mode (`!` prefix) now detects - dangerous command patterns before execution. A configurable pattern registry - classifies commands by danger level (warning, critical) and surfaces a user - warning overlay before proceeding. Patterns cover destructive filesystem - operations, privilege escalation, network exfiltration, and more. (#1003) - -- **TUI — Permission Question Widget**: A new inline `PermissionQuestionWidget` - renders permission requests directly in the conversation stream for single-file - operations. Users can allow/reject with single-key shortcuts (`a`/`A`/`r`/`R`), - navigate with arrow keys, confirm with `Enter`, or press `v` to open the full diff --git a/docs/server.md b/docs/server.md new file mode 100644 index 000000000..ab9d19bd4 --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/server.md @@ -0,0 +1,660 @@ +# Server Guide (v3.8.0) + +CleverAgents v3.8.0 (M9: Server Implementation) introduces the full +CleverAgents server and all server-dependent capabilities.

No network, no +serialization beyond JSON-RPC framing. Authentication is bypassed — the +subprocess runs with the user's local permissions. + +### Server Mode — A2A JSON-RPC over HTTP + +The client connects to the CleverAgents server via the A2A SDK's HTTP +transport. All communication — both agent interactions and platform +operations — flows through the single A2A endpoint. The server delegates +actor execution to LangGraph Platform via RemoteGraph. + +### Server Mode — External A2A Agent + +When an agent is hosted on an external A2A-compatible server, the client +sends standard A2A operations to that server and `_cleveragents/` extension +methods to the CleverAgents server.
