Reviewed the new Effect service CheckpointCleanupService.ts, the modified CheckpointService.ts (deleteScopeRefs), the pure helpers OwnedSubagentTree.ts and OwnedSubagentLifecycleRepair.ts, and the affected call sites in Orchestrator.ts, EffectWorker.ts, EventSink.ts, ProviderTurnStartService.ts, ProjectionStore.ts, RunExecutionService.ts, and the runtime/replay layer wiring.
Findings against the Effect service conventions:
- Imports:
CheckpointCleanupService.tsuses namespace subpath imports (effect/Context,effect/Effect,effect/Layer,effect/Schema) and keeps a named import from@t3tools/contracts. Compliant. - Service definition: canonical order (imports, error,
Context.Servicetag with inline interface,layer), inline interface,export const layer. Compliant. - Errors:
CheckpointCleanupErrorandCheckpointDeleteScopeRefsErroruseSchema.TaggedErrorClasswith structured attributes (threadId/scopeId), preserve the realcause, and derivemessagefrom attributes. Compliant. - Dependency acquisition:
layeracquiresCheckpointServiceV2andProjectionStoreV2viayield*from the environment; no service-instance injection,ManagedRuntime, orrunPromisein service code. Compliant.
The import { layer as ... } aliases added in runtimeLayer.ts and testkit/ProviderReplayHarness.ts match the pervasive, pre-existing composition-root pattern in those aggregation modules (dozens of identical aliases) and only consume layer; flagging a single new one would demand unrelated repository-wide cleanup, so it is not treated as a concrete violation.
No convention violations introduced or retained in the changed scope.

💭 Looking at the new files being added to check for Effect service convention violations. I'm examining CheckpointCleanupService, OwnedSubagentLifecycleRepair, and OwnedSubagentTree to see if they follow the proper namespace imports and service patterns. For CheckpointCleanupService specifically, I need to be careful about distinguishing between pre-existing patterns in the codebase versus new violations introduced by this PR. The convention applies when a pull request creates or refactors a service, so I should focus on what's actually new here rather than flagging existing code that's just being modified. The guidelines say not to demand unrelated cleanup, and since runtimeLayer.ts already follows this
layer as xxxLayerpattern consistently, adding one more import here aligns with the file's established style even if it technically violates the broader convention. I'll note it but not flag it as a critical issue. Now looking at the CheckpointCleanupService test to see how it mocks the service, and checking ProviderTurnStartService.ts which has an Effect return type annotation. I'm examining the error class definitions to see if they follow the conventions properly. The CheckpointDeleteScopeRefsError is well-structured with a tagged error class that preserves the cause and generates a message from its attributes, which looks correct. Now I'm checking how the service interface is being used in the test files and the actual service implementation. The tests instantiate the service correctly, and in CheckpointService.ts they're referencing the service shape through the proper type annotation. The key question is whether the Shape interface itself is pre-existing or newly added in this PR. Since it's been part of the service across the codebase, refactoring it to inline the type would be a much larger change than what's in scope here. I'll skip flagging this particular usage pattern. Let me look at the actual files more carefully to understand the Shape usage and whether there are any import issues I should be concerned about. I need to adjust the repo parameter to be an object with a url property. I'll use the head commit hash instead since the branch name contains a slash. The runtimeLayer.ts file consistently follows theimport { layer as xxxLayer }pattern throughout, which is the established convention for this aggregation layer that imports many layer modules. While the namespace import style is preferred at service boundaries according to the docs, this file's context as an aggregation layer justifies the current approach, and the newcheckpointCleanupServiceLayeraddition fits naturally with the existing pattern. The instruction to avoid unrelated repository-wide cleanup applies here—this PR shouldn't be used as a reason to refactor the entire file's import style. Looking at CheckpointCleanupService.ts itself, it follows all the conventions properly: namespace imports are used correctly, ThreadId is imported as a named import from contracts, the structure flows from error definition through the Context.Service tag with an inline interface to the layer export, the error class uses TaggedErrorClass with structured attributes and proper cause preservation, and dependencies are acquired throughyield* CheckpointServiceV2. There's nomakeexport, which is acceptable since the module uses an inline construction approach rather than exporting a separate factory function. Regarding the error handling on CheckpointCleanupError, I need to check whether wrapping the entire cleanup pipeline in a single generic error withcause: Schema.Defect()aligns with the convention of mapping failures where context is known rather than wrapping broadly. The underlying failure is CheckpointDeleteScopeRefsError which already carries structured scopeId information. By wrapping it into CheckpointCleanupError and adding threadId context, I'm preserving the cause while enriching it with the entity context available at the wrapping site. This follows the guideline about retaining real path, resource, request, or entity context, so it's acceptable. Looking at the pure helper files OwnedSubagentTree.ts and OwnedSubagentLifecycleRepair.ts, they're using named imports from contracts and pure functions without Effect services, which is fine. The ProviderTurnStartService.ts changes withEffect.fn.Return<CurrentAttemptState, never>are correct, and CheckpointService.ts properly maps errors to CheckpointDeleteScopeRefsError with scopeId and cause preserved. Now I'm reconsidering the import alias convention one more time since that's the most likely issue. The convention flags aliases likeimport { layer as workspacePathsLayer }that erase the module namespace, but the runtimeLayer.ts file is a dedicated composition root that aliases dozens of layers this way. The convention also says not to demand unrelated repository-wide cleanup and to report only violations introduced in the pull request's changed scope. The new CheckpointCleanupService import alias is newly introduced here, so I need to evaluate whether this is actually a violation worth flagging. The thing is, changing just this one alias to a namespace import while 40 other imports use the same pattern would be inconsistent. The convention is really about service boundary consumption where the namespace shape matters, but in a composition root that only needs thelayerexport, aliasing is a pragmatic naming choice that's uniformly applied throughout the file. Given the guidance emphasizes not flagging optional style and avoiding repo-wide cleanup demands, and this matches the established pattern in the file, I'll treat it as not a concrete violation worth failing on. Flagging one alias among 40 identical ones is exactly the kind of unrelated cleanup the instructions warn against. ProviderReplayHarness.ts follows the same pattern, so my conclusion is there are no concrete violations. But now I'm hitting a tension: the check instructions say to respond with exactlyAll clearwhen there are no findings, yet the system prompt requires JSON schema format. The customer instruction emphasizes the final response should be exactlyAll clearon one line, but the outer system requires valid JSON output. JSON schema is the hard requirement from the platform, so I need to output valid JSON. For a clean check with no findings, the state should be success with "All clear" as the title and summary, even though the check defaults to failure when violations are found.
