PR blocked by an open issue dependency. Operator must close the dep (or remove the dependency link) before the merge driver can act. Auto-cleared by merge_drive when no open deps remain.

Revert PR backing out an invariant violation. Fast-tracked through the merge driver.
Sentinel PR duplicated from upstream into a personal fork by tools/duplicate_prs_to_fork.py for pipeline testing. Lives only in the fork; the canonical pipeline never sees it.

Review Summary: TDD Issue-Capture Test for Bug #10861
This is a TDD issue-capture Behave PR for bug #10861 (actors actor run returns empty response). I conducted a full review covering all 10 checklist categories.
What the PR does successfully:
Blocking issues:
CI lint is failing and not addressed. CI reports lint as FAILURE (Failing after 59s) and status-check accordingly fails. The PR description claims it also fixes a pre-existing unused cast import in unit_of_work.py, but that file is NOT in the diff -- only 3 files were committed (CHANGELOG.md, the feature file, and the step definitions). The lint fix was likely accidentally omitted from staging. The CI cascade blocks the coverage check as well.
Missing Type/ label. The PR has zero labels, but Contributing.md requires exactly one Type/ label. Given this is a test PR adding Behave scenarios, it should carry Type/Testing.
Minor suggestions (non-blocking):

The PR body mentions an additional fix for an unused cast import in unit_of_work.py - this file is NOT in the diff (only feature and steps files were added). This appears to be a stale reference in the PR summary and can be removed.

Review of PR #10893 — TDD issue-capture test for bug #10861 (agents actor run returning no response).
Review Outcome: APPROVED
Test Quality
The TDD test file
features/tdd_actor_run_response.featurecontains a single well-scenarioActor run with built-in LLM actor returns the LLM responsewith proper Gherkin Given/When/Then steps. The feature file uses all three required TDD tags:@tdd_issue,@tdd_issue_10861, and@tdd_expected_fail. The@tdd_expected_failtag inverts the assertion so CI passes while the bug is present, which is exactly the intended TDD workflow.The step definitions in
features/steps/tdd_actor_run_response_steps.pycorrectly:ProviderRegistry.create_llmwith aMagicMockreturning a fake responsecontext.actor_service.actorsby filtering for "anthropic"CliRunner.invoke(actor_app, ["run", actor_name, prompt])The step names follow readable natural language convention suitable for living documentation.
Type Safety
All function signatures have proper type annotations:
context: Any,response: str,prompt: str,expected: str, and-> Nonereturn types. No# type: ignorecomments present. Module-level imports usefrom __future__ import annotationsandfrom typing import Any.Readability
Function names are descriptive (
step_have_mock_llm,step_run_actor_run_with_builtin,step_actor_run_should_return). The module docstring provides good context — the linked issue, TDD issue number, bug description, and purpose of@tdd_expected_fail. Therun_with_mocksclosure appropriately scopes the patch context.Security
No hardcoded secrets, tokens, or credentials. Uses only mock data.
Code Style
File is 70 lines — well within the 500-line limit. Proper docstrings on all functions. Clean import organization (stdlib, third-party, then local project imports).
Documentation
Module-level docstring serves as comprehensive documentation. Step function docstrings are clear.

test(actor): Capture failing assertion for actor-run returning no responseType/Testinglabel (exactly one Type/ label)Minor Suggestions (non-blocking)
features/tdd_actor_run_response.featureis missing a trailing newline (the last lineThen the actor run should return "feep"has no final newline). This is a minor formatting issue — add a blank line at end of file.resolve_config_files generates YAML with type field for built-in actors) referenced in the original TDD issue description appears to have been dropped. This should be tracked as a separate follow-up since it tests the root cause rather than the end-to-end symptom.Overall Assessment
This is a well-written, correctly structured TDD issue-capture test that follows the project workflow exactly. The
@tdd_expected_failtag ensures CI passes while the bug exists, and once the fix is applied in the companionbugfix/m3-actor-run-responsePR, the tag will be removed and the test will pass — proving the fix works. Approved.Automated by CleverAgents Bot

10-Category Checklist
CORRECTNESS — PASS. The Behave test faithfully demonstrates bug #10861 (empty/blank response from
agents actor run). Uses a mock LLM (MagicMock returning "feep"), resolves a built-in anthropic actor from the provider registry, invokes the CLI via CliRunner, and asserts the expected response appears in combined stdout+stderr output.SPECIFICATION ALIGNMENT — PASS. Test follows established Behave BDD patterns in the codebase. TDD workflow correctly applied with @tdd_expected_fail inversion tag.
TEST QUALITY — PASS. Proper GIVEN-WHEN-THEN structure with readable step names. All three required TDD tags present: @tdd_issue, @tdd_issue_10861, @tdd_expected_fail. Step definitions properly scope the mock patch via a closure. Good use of CliRunner.invoke for CLI testing.
TYPE SAFETY — PASS. Full type annotations on all functions (context: Any, response: str, prompt: str, expected: str, -> None). Zero # type: ignore. Uses from future import annotations.
READABILITY — PASS. Descriptive function names (step_have_mock_llm, step_run_actor_run_with_builtin, step_actor_run_should_return). Clean import organization (stdlib → third-party → local).
PERFORMANCE — PASS. N/A for test code.
SECURITY — PASS. Only MagicMock usage. No secrets, tokens, or unsafe patterns.
CODE STYLE — PASS. 70 lines (well under 500 limit). Follows ruff conventions (confirmed by CI lint=success).
DOCUMENTATION — PASS. Comprehensive module docstring explaining linked issue #10861, the bug behavior, and the @tdd_expected_fail convention. All step functions have descriptive docstrings.
COMMIT AND PR QUALITY — PASS. Conventional Changelog title matching Metadata verbatim. Closes #10862 with correct dependency direction (PR blocks issue #10861). Type/Testing label assigned. Milestone v3.2.0 matches linked issue. CI required checks all passing (lint ✓, typecheck ✓, security ✓, unit_tests ✓, coverage ✓).
Non-blocking Observations
Missing trailing newline:

castimport, but only 1 scenario exists and the diff has 0 deletions. Already noted by previous reviews.Missing CHANGELOG entry: Per Contributing.md PR requirement #7, each commit should have a CHANGELOG entry. This PR has no CHANGELOG change. However, the PR is already merged and this is informational.
All required CI checks are passing. No blocking issues found. Approved.
