Status

The Task 7 work was already implemented and committed on this branch (commits 198e59a + 20d4bd2) — I verified it, I didn't need to write it:

  • apps/auto-company/app.toml — minimal App manifest pointing at workflow.json.
  • apps/auto-company/personas/*.md (14 files) — ported from .claude/agents/*.md format into agent-neutral personas (no CLI/tool-specific syntax; each has role, principles, decision framework, output format). Spot-checked ceo-bezos.md — reads cleanly.
  • apps/auto-company/workflow.json — full ideate → pre-mortem/market-validation/unit-economics → GO/NO-GO → execute cycle as a flare-workflow JSON DAG:
    • 5 parallel fan_out ideation steps → collect → CEO shortlist
    • pre-mortem/market/unit-economics run in parallel then feed the go-no-go step, which must end its reply with a literal DECISION: GO/DECISION: NO-GO line
    • every downstream step (architecture → ux → ui → build → qa → deploy → gtm → sales → growth-ops → launch-brief) uses "mode": { "conditional": { "condition": "DECISION: GO" } } and is itself required to re-emit DECISION: GO, so a NO-GO (or any step's failure to re-emit GO) halts the entire rest of the chain — that's what the 20d4bd2 cascade fix added.

I traced the engine (crates/flare-workflow/src/variables.rs + engine.rs:786-830,1126) to confirm {{input}} resolves to the previous step's output (state.input is overwritten after each step), and Conditional checks that same running input for the condition substring — so the gate wiring is correct, not just plausible-looking.

Concern / blocker: I could not run agentflare apps run apps/auto-company end-to-end as the v1 success bar — the C: drive has 0 bytes free (475G/475G used), which fails any cargo build/temp-writing command on this machine. I stopped rather than risk a disk-cleanup pass (win-cleanup skill) without your go-ahead, since that's a system-wide action outside this repo's scope.

Want me to run win-cleanup to free space so I can do the live end-to-end run, or will you free space and I re-run it after?

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added an autonomous product-development workflow covering ideation, validation, design, implementation, testing, deployment, marketing, sales, and launch planning.
    • Added specialized AI advisors for leadership, finance, technology, operations, design, research, marketing, sales, and quality assurance.
    • Added application metadata and workflow configuration for the Auto Company app.
  • Improvements

    • The app runner now waits for workflow completion, reports failures clearly, and handles status timeouts gracefully.

Content-only App under apps/auto-company/: app.toml, 14 agent-neutral
personas (Claude-Code frontmatter stripped from .refs/Auto-Company's
.claude/agents/*.md), and workflow.json translating the ideate ->
pre-mortem/GO-NO-GO -> execute cycle onto flare-workflow's JSON DAG
(fan_out/collect for brainstorming, a conditional gate on the CEO's
DECISION: GO/NO-GO call before the build phase).

Also fixes 'agentflare apps run' to block on the run's terminal status
instead of returning immediately: the workflow's step tasks run on
WORKFLOW_RT's own worker threads, which are killed the instant the
process exits, so without this the CLI would print a run id for a run
that never actually executed a single step.

…m step

Every step from ux-flow through launch-brief now carries mode.conditional
on DECISION: GO and re-emits that line, so a NO-GO cascades skips through
the whole execute phase instead of stopping only at architecture.

Changes

Auto-company workflow

Layer / File(s) Summary
App metadata and persona contracts
apps/auto-company/app.toml, apps/auto-company/.gitignore, apps/auto-company/personas/*
Defines the app metadata, ignored state directory, and persona instructions for business, product, engineering, operations, sales, marketing, research, and QA roles.
Autonomous product workflow
apps/auto-company/workflow.json
Adds parallel idea generation, proposal selection, market and financial validation, a DECISION: GO gate, and conditional product delivery stages.
CLI workflow completion polling
src/cli/apps.rs
Makes apps run poll durable workflow status for up to 30 minutes. It reports terminal status, status-read errors, and timeouts. A regression test covers terminal failure.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 20d4b

The new workflow can run longer than the command's 30-minute lifetime, after which the process may exit while the run is still incomplete and cannot continue. Merge should wait for that timeout behavior to be fixed or explicitly accepted; a separate markdown formatting issue is minor.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Do not return while the in-process workflow is nonterminal.

Line 78 returns after 30 minutes. Lines 49-56 establish that the workflow worker threads stop when apps run exits. A run that reaches this deadline is therefore abandoned in pending or running; it cannot continue for a later status check.

The supplied auto-company workflow permits a sequential path longer than 30 minutes from its configured step timeouts. Keep an execution host alive until a terminal status, or cancel the run and persist a terminal timeout status before returning.
