From c5fba708acfc88be06df5474f79814b87aa8d68e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lior Date: Fri, 29 May 2026 19:34:35 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 01/29] accelerator(charter): kick off the PR-less git-monster accelerator (long-lived branch) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Aaron-authorized 2026-05-29 long-lived branch for the PR-less alternative to the backlog->claim->PR->review->merge cycle. The git-monster friction (rate-limit cascades, armed-wait-on-CI, dotgit-saturation, review-thread loops) is the dominant agent-throughput tax — acceptable for the corporate/leash market (PR-protected static DUs) but the wrong default for the OSS/Agora market (self-modifying DUs free from PRs). Charter grounds in existing substrate (move-next as universal action grammar + git-as-free-event-store + github-actions-recursion, #5672; GitHub swarm architecture; dual-market framing). Core idea: git IS the free event store (commits=events), move-next is the universal action grammar, GH-Actions-recursion is the swarm runtime, PR-less != review-less (review moves to continuous glass-halo + shadow-class health-observation). Hard floor preserved (force-with-lease only, HARD LIMITS, kid-safety, NCI, leash-market PR path NOT removed, main never force-pushed). Action item 1: substrate-grounding synthesis before building anything. This is a kickoff, not a build.

Two agents never target the same path, so a `git merge` across agent streams +is **always a clean union** — no merge conflict, ever. This is the property that +lets the swarm run PR-less (per B-0867's 128-bit-unique-ID design; ULID chosen +over UUIDv4 because it is **lexicographically time-sortable** — a directory sort IS +chronological replay order).

The event is the **persisted record of one `transition(from, +option) = to` call** — the move-next core made durable. `to` is redundant with +`transition(from, option)` (derivable on replay) but stored for audit + so a +reader doesn't need the transition function to inspect history. + +### Event kinds + +| `kind` | Purpose | Extra fields | +|---|---|---| +| `transition` | A move-next state transition | `from`, `option`, `to` | +| `heartbeat` | A `RecordingHeartbeat` (per B-0858) | `lane`, `note?` | +| `schema-def` | Declares a schema version (schema-in-the-stream) | `schemaName`, `schemaVersion`, `jsonSchema` | +| `retraction` | Negates a prior event (forgiveness) | `weight: -1`, `retracts: ""` | + +## Schema-in-the-stream (Insight 4 from the razor flow) + +The schema itself is data in the stream. A `schema-def` event in `events/_schema/` +declares a version; every event carries `schema: "@"`. When the +schema evolves: + +1. A new `schema-def` event lands (e.g., `move-next-event@2` adds a field). +2. New events tag `schema: "move-next-event@2"`; old events keep `@1`. +3. Readers interpret each event under the schema it declares — **both versions live + in the stream**, so old data stays interpretable without a destructive migration. + +This gives the accelerator **automatic, safe schema-evolution over historical +data** — the move-next DUs (`AgentState`, `MenuOption`) can grow (new `tag`s) without +breaking replay of past events. The TS types module IS the canonical `@1` schema; +a future `@2` lands as both updated types + a `schema-def` event. + +## Forgiveness-budget (Insight 3 from the razor flow) + +Retraction is **logical, not physical**. To undo an event, append a `retraction` +event (`weight: -1`, `retracts: `); the active state is the Z-set sum of +weights. The retracted event's file **stays on disk** — the trace charges storage +rent indefinitely. Per the razor flow: *"run out of space = run out of +forgiveness."* + +The schema therefore includes a **compaction/tiering policy** (the forgiveness-budget): + +- **Budget config**: `maxActiveStreamBytes` per agent (default: a generous bound). +- **When exceeded**: resolved retraction-pairs (an event + its `-1` retraction, + net weight 0) are moved from `events//` to `_compacted//*.jsonl` + (batched). Active state is unchanged (net-zero pairs contribute nothing); the + active stream shrinks; the full trace is preserved cold. +- **Compaction is itself a deliberate event** (`kind: "schema-def"`-adjacent + `compaction` marker), so the audit trail records what was tiered and when — + forgiveness is budgeted, not silently discarded. + +This composes directly with git-as-free-event-store: the `.git/` objects charge +the same physical rent, so the forgiveness-budget IS the accelerator's answer to +unbounded `.git/` growth at swarm scale. + +## Replay + +Reconstruct agent `A`'s state at time `T`: + +1. List `events/A/*.json` (+ `_compacted/A/*.jsonl`) with ULID ≤ ULID(T), sorted + (lexical = chronological). +2. Sum Z-set weights; drop net-zero (fully-retracted) events. +3. Fold `transition` over the surviving `option`s from the stream's initial state. + +Deterministic (no wall-clock dependence beyond the recorded `ts`/ULID) → +DST-replayable. + +## The PR-less write path (composes with B-0874) + +One move-next cycle = append one event-file + commit with the AgencySignature +trailer + **direct push** (no PR) to the agent's stream branch (or the long-lived +accelerator branch; or via GH-Actions-recursion per B-0874).

Adds a Logger seam (noopLog default for library/tests; stderrLog for CLI) that emits one JSON line per cycle showing the KEYS the agent uses: - agent : PARTITION key -> events// - key : per-event key -> events//.json (= event id) - keyFormat : 'ulid' today; flags the placeholder-vs-Zeta-ID gap (B-0893) - prev : causal-link key (prev event id, or null) - kind/from/option/to/wrote/dryRun Logs go to STDERR so STDOUT stays the clean parseable summary. 8/8 tests pass (library callers default to noopLog -> silent, unchanged). SUBSTRATE-HONEST NOTE: the key is a placeholder ULID. A canonical, cross-verified TS Zeta-ID codec ALREADY EXISTS at src/Core.TypeScript/zeta-id/ (pack/unpack/ cross-verify) alongside the C#/F# impls. The harness should switch to it: the Zeta-ID encodes persona (agent), category (Workflow/Heartbeat = the event kinds), authority (account/trust key), and location (vendor/region) IN the 128-bit key. Using the placeholder ULID was a verify-existing-substrate-before-authoring miss. Next: swap newUlid() -> pack(ZetaObservation, env) (schema-touching; tracked).

Replaces the placeholder ULID event key with the cross-verified canonical Zeta-ID codec (src/Core.TypeScript/zeta-id/). WHY: the ULID was a verify-existing-substrate miss — a TS Zeta-ID codec already existed alongside the C#/F# impls. The Zeta-ID encodes provenance IN the key: persona (agent-class), category (Workflow/Heartbeat = the move-next event kinds), authority (trust/account), location (region), timestamp — vs opaque timestamp+randomness. Empirically: a heartbeat cycle now keys category=Heartbeat, persona=FireflyCoherence, authority=Simulated, location=EastUS_VA1. CHANGES: - event-store-schema.ts: ZetaIdHex type (32-char lowercase hex; version+timestamp in high bits => lexical-hex = chronological); CURRENT_SCHEMA @1 -> @2; BuildDeps newUlid() -> newId(IdSemantics) seam (agent + category + authority); legacy @1 ULID accepted on replay via isEventId (back-compat for the one existing @1 event). - move-next-harness.ts: realDeps.newId packs a real ZetaId via pack()+DEFAULT_ENV; agentToPersona (aaron->Aaron, autonomous->FireflyCoherence); category from option; loadStream sorts by ts (robust across @1 ULID + @2 hex id formats); keyFormat detects zeta-id vs ulid. - tests: 19/19 pass (round-trip unpack confirms category/persona land in key bits). FOLLOW-UP (cross-impl, golden-vector touching): extend the canonical Persona enum with the full agent roster (otto/alexa/riven/vera/lior/addison/max) so the EXACT agent lands in the persona bits; today autonomous agents share FireflyCoherence and the precise agent stays in the event 'agent' field + directory partition.

Parses the first integer, validates in-range, FALLS BACK to index 0 on any failure (model down/slow/garbage) so the loop never stalls (exceptions-as-signals; fallback is the safety rail). - classify(): observe.ts auto-classifier shape (input -> one label), sharing chooseIndex's validated/fallback-safe path.

Manifest kept OS-agnostic (model/seed/host) so the Windows install.ps1 (peer surface) reads the same shared contract. (b) 'move it forward with real tests' — a validation workflow that proves the entropy-lever end-to-end. accelerator-local-llm-validate.yml (off-leash; push to accelerator or dispatch): - runs install.sh on a bare ubuntu-24.04 (the lever: bare machine -> substrate) - asserts ollama present + the PINNED model landed (reads manifests/local-llm) - runs the mock-backed primitive tests (logic, run-anywhere) - runs validate-local-llm.ts: a REAL chooseIndex through the actual local model, asserting a valid non-fallback selection (proves the live model responds) validate-local-llm.ts reads the declarative manifest -> ollamaBackend -> real chooseIndex; exits non-zero if the model fell back (unreachable/unparseable). actionlint + shellcheck + tsc clean; 9/9 mock tests pass. This run is the gate that graduates the local-LLM primitive from off-leash to main.

It does **NOT** work on NixOS: + +- NixOS is **non-FHS** — a generic dynamically-linked binary dropped into + `~/.local/bin` won't find its loader/libs. The ollama binary won't run. +- `local-llm.sh` is intentionally **graceful** (warn + `exit 0` on any failure) + so install.sh never hard-fails on the local-LLM step. + +Compose those two facts and the result is a **false-green**: on NixOS, +`local-llm.sh` fails to produce a working ollama, skips gracefully, and the +`docker-nixos-install-sh-test` build **passes anyway** — because the NixOS test +validates that *install.sh runs clean*, NOT that *the local-LLM actually works*. + +So the automated test (the shield) reports green on the **primary OS** while the +local-LLM primitive is non-functional there. A shield with a hole is worse than a +known gap, because it reads as covered. + +NixOS is the primary (B-0940: declarative-by-construction; boots the real +hardware via USB/ISO). The local-LLM primitive being silently broken on the +primary — behind a green check — is the exact failure mode the test matrix exists +to prevent. + +## Fix (two halves — both required to close the hole) + +### Half 1 — NixOS-native ollama (declarative) + +NixOS should get ollama the declarative-native way, not via the Ubuntu +generic-binary retrofit: + +- Add `services.ollama.enable = true;` (or `environment.systemPackages = [ pkgs.ollama ];` + + a oneshot model-pull unit) to the appropriate NixOS module + (`full-ai-cluster/nixos/modules/common.nix` or a dedicated `local-llm.nix`). +- Pin the model to `manifests/local-llm` (`qwen2.5:0.5b`) so the declarative + pin stays the single source of truth across all three OSes. +- `local-llm.sh` should **detect NixOS** (`/etc/NIXOS` or `$NIX_PATH`) and + no-op there (ollama comes from the system closure, not the script) — the + generic-binary path stays for Ubuntu only. + +Note: existing `ollama` mentions in `full-ai-cluster/nixos/` are the **big-cluster +GPU-serving** path (worker-gpu via Ollama/vLLM, per control-plane README) — a +different concern from this small-CPU dev/CI/DST local-LLM primitive. This row is +the latter. + +### Half 2 — make the NixOS test ASSERT, not skip + +Turn the false-green into a true signal: the `docker-nixos-install-sh-test` (and +its Dockerfile) must run the same local-LLM validation the Ubuntu test does — +start the daemon, assert the pinned model is present, run the **real** `chooseIndex` +probe (`tools/accelerator/validate-local-llm.ts`), and **fail the build if the +local-LLM is absent**. Graceful-skip is correct for `install.sh` (don't brick a +machine over an optional probe), but the **test** must not inherit that grace — +the test's job is to catch exactly this. + +## Acceptance + +1. On a NixOS image, the local-LLM primitive (ollama + pinned model + working + `chooseIndex`) is functional — installed the declarative-native way. +2. `docker-nixos-install-sh-test` ASSERTS the local-LLM works (real probe), and + **fails** if it doesn't — no more graceful-skip-to-green for the primitive. +3.

Fix (two halves): 1. local-llm.sh: detect /etc/NIXOS (same marker linux.sh already routes on) -> install ollama via nix (, fallback ). FHS-safe; works in the nixos/nix container AND on real NixOS; floats with the channel (consistent with float-ollama). Graceful on failure (never bricks install.sh). The declarative real-hardware self-heal layer (services.ollama in configuration.nix) is complementary; this is the install.sh-retrofit path that closes the test hole. 2. nixos Dockerfile: COPY tools/accelerator + validation step 4 that ASSERTS the local-LLM (start daemon, pinned model present, real chooseIndex probe, mock tests) and FAILS the build if absent. assert-don't-skip per the shield rule — graceful-skip is right for install.sh, wrong for the test. Off-leash on the accelerator branch; the docker-nixos test now re-runs here (per the trigger fix) to verify. Harvest-to-main is gated on this going green-WITH-assert (non-reversible action -> the green-with-assert IS the verification).

The nix-built ollama has the correct glibc in its RPATH, but the docker-nixos test's global LD_LIBRARY_PATH (an FHS-mise glibc hack) OVERRIDES the RPATH, forcing ollama onto the wrong libc. Docker-test-harness artifact, not a real-NixOS bug. Fix: replace the bare symlink with a wrapper that execs ollama via 'env -u LD_LIBRARY_PATH', so EVERY ollama call (install-time serve+pull AND the test assert) runs clear of the pollution and uses ollama's own glibc. Single point of fix; harmless on real NixOS/ubuntu/mac (LD_LIBRARY_PATH unset → no-op). The install (nix build, collision-free) was already solved; this closes the daemon-startup wall. Diagnosed, not guessed (surface-the-error discipline); if this still fails it's genuinely weird → peer-call per the bound.
