Summary

  • Consolidate get_dispatchable_tasks and order_depth_first shell loops into single jq passes (2 HIGH findings from PR t1408.4: Add batch execution strategies for task decomposition dispatch #3000 Gemini review)
  • Rewrite circular dependency detection with proper stack-based DFS using jq until(), fixing false positives on diamond graphs and false negatives from incomplete traversal (MEDIUM finding)
  • Remove blanket 2>/dev/null from jq calls to preserve stderr for debugging (MEDIUM finding)
  • Remove now-unused is_task_unblocked function

Net result: -46 lines, fewer jq invocations (O(1) vs O(n*m)), correct cycle detection.

Closes #3030

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Optimized internal processing scripts for improved performance and maintainability.

Consolidate shell loops into single jq passes for performance and
fix flawed circular dependency detection from PR #3000 review feedback.

Changes:
- Replace get_dispatchable_tasks O(n*m) shell loop with single jq pass
- Remove now-unused is_task_unblocked function
- Replace order_depth_first shell loop with single jq pass
- Rewrite circular dependency detection with proper stack-based DFS
  using jq until(), fixing false positives on diamond graphs and
  false negatives from incomplete traversal
- Remove blanket 2>/dev/null from jq calls (preserve stderr for debugging)

Closes #3030

Walkthrough

The .agents/scripts/batch-strategy-helper.sh script has been refactored to consolidate shell-based task processing into unified jq operations, replacing inefficient per-task loops with single comprehensive passes for validation, filtering, and ordering logic.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
Batch Strategy Optimization
.agents/scripts/batch-strategy-helper.sh
Consolidated multiple shell loops and repeated jq invocations into single, efficient jq expressions. Rewrote get_dispatchable_tasks, order_depth_first, and order_breadth_first to operate entirely in jq. Unified validation logic (duplicates, blockers, circular dependencies, orphans, depth) into comprehensive jq filter. Removed is_task_unblocked function and shell-based branching; adjusted parse_args to preserve stderr for debugging.

Poem

✨ From loops to jq pipes so clean,
Shell tasks transformed to something pristine,
No more per-iteration calls so slow,
One pass validates—watch performance flow,
Dependency graphs dance in filters bright! 🎭

Check name Status Explanation Resolution
Linked Issues check ⚠️ Warning The PR implements all five objectives from #3030: consolidates jq calls in get_dispatchable_tasks and order_depth_first [HIGH findings], fixes circular dependency detection with proper DFS [MEDIUM], removes is_task_unblocked, and preserves jq stderr [MEDIUM]; grep safety improvements are not evident. Verify that grep calls (line 505, 532) have been updated to use 'grep -Fqx --' for safe literal matching to address the MEDIUM security finding on regex/argument injection.

449-494: Correct stack-based DFS with proper diamond graph handling.

The separation of path (current ancestors) from processed (fully explored nodes) correctly distinguishes back-edges (cycles) from cross-edges (diamonds). The until() loop with frame-based state is an elegant jq pattern for iterative algorithms.

One minor observation: the cycle message at line 480 ("\($start_id) -> ... -> \($dep)") uses the DFS start node rather than extracting the actual cycle from $frame.path. For debugging, the precise cycle path would be more helpful, though this is functionally correct for detection.

🔍 Optional: More precise cycle reporting

If desired, extract the actual cycle path from $frame.path:

-                            .cycles += ["\($start_id) -> ... -> \($dep)"]
+                            # Extract cycle: from $dep's position to end, plus $dep
+                            (($frame.path | index($dep)) // 0) as $cycle_start
+                            | .cycles += [($frame.path[$cycle_start:] + [$dep]) | join(" -> ")]

frame's path ($frame.path) by extracting the suffix that starts at the first
occurrence of $dep and joining those nodes plus $dep into a readable "A -> B ->

the start node hint.
