Summary

Fix the agents plan status --format json command to return a spec-compliant JSON envelope instead of a raw plan dictionary. The command now wraps plan data in the required envelope structure with proper metadata fields (command, status, exit_code, timing, messages) as specified in the agents plan status specification.

Changes

  • Modified src/cleveragents/cli/commands/plan.py: Implemented _status_output_dict() and _get_progress_status() functions to build spec-compliant JSON envelopes
  • Modified src/cleveragents/cli/formatting.py: Added optional started_iso parameter to support outer timing.started field in envelope
  • Added Behave BDD test suite: 20-scenario test suite (features/plan_status_json_envelope.feature) with step definitions verifying JSON envelope structure compliance

Envelope structure

Wraps plan data with required fields:

  • command: "plan status"
  • status: "ok"
  • exit_code: 0
  • timing: includes started (ISO created timestamp) and duration_ms
  • messages: ["Status refreshed"]
  • data: contains plan details (action, project, automation, attempt, progress, timing, execution, cost)

Data fields

All required nested fields present:

  • data.progress: Strategize/Execute/Apply steps with proper statuses
  • data.timing: started ISO timestamp, elapsed, duration_ms
  • data.execution: sandbox, tool_calls, files_modified, child_plans (with complete suffix), checkpoints
  • data.cost: tokens_used, cost_so_far, estimated

Testing

  • 20 Behave BDD scenarios verify JSON structure compliance
  • CI passes: lint ✓, format ✓, typecheck ✓
  • All required envelope fields present and properly formatted
  • Child plans format uses spec-required "complete" suffix (e.g. "0/2 complete")
  • ACTION phase progress correctly reports "queued" for Strategize/Execute steps
  • Timing.started includes plan created-at ISO timestamp

Issue Reference

Closes #9450

## Summary Fix the `agents plan status --format json` command to return a spec-compliant JSON envelope instead of a raw plan dictionary. The command now wraps plan data in the required envelope structure with proper metadata fields (`command`, `status`, `exit_code`, `timing`, `messages`) as specified in the agents plan status specification. ## Changes - **Modified `src/cleveragents/cli/commands/plan.py`**: Implemented `_status_output_dict()` and `_get_progress_status()` functions to build spec-compliant JSON envelopes - **Modified `src/cleveragents/cli/formatting.py`**: Added optional `started_iso` parameter to support outer `timing.started` field in envelope - **Added Behave BDD test suite**: 20-scenario test suite (`features/plan_status_json_envelope.feature`) with step definitions verifying JSON envelope structure compliance ## Envelope structure Wraps plan data with required fields: - `command: "plan status"` - `status: "ok"` - `exit_code: 0` - `timing`: includes `started` (ISO created timestamp) and `duration_ms` - `messages: ["Status refreshed"]` - `data`: contains plan details (action, project, automation, attempt, progress, timing, execution, cost) ## Data fields All required nested fields present: - `data.progress`: Strategize/Execute/Apply steps with proper statuses - `data.timing`: started ISO timestamp, elapsed, duration_ms - `data.execution`: sandbox, tool_calls, files_modified, child_plans (with complete suffix), checkpoints - `data.cost`: tokens_used, cost_so_far, estimated ## Testing - 20 Behave BDD scenarios verify JSON structure compliance - CI passes: lint ✓, format ✓, typecheck ✓ - All required envelope fields present and properly formatted - Child plans format uses spec-required "complete" suffix (e.g. "0/2 complete") - ACTION phase progress correctly reports "queued" for Strategize/Execute steps - Timing.started includes plan created-at ISO timestamp ## Issue Reference Closes #9450
