For a sibling (`pre_seed` present): the file's data about YOUR OWN + test's workload/repo is real evidence, not inheritance — but the + CONFIRMATION judgment must still be independently yours (see principle 1). + + **Write back what you gather live.** Persist via + `contributeCodeEvidence(evidenceFilePath, writerId, repo, patch, nowMs)` + or `contributeLogsEvidence(evidenceFilePath, writerId, workload, patch, + nowMs)` (`lib/evidence-file.mjs`), where **`writerId` is your own + `testRunId`**. Each coordinator writes only its own shard file under + `.contrib/`, so concurrent coordinators + never clobber each other; readers fold base + shards automatically. + Write back before finishing this test. Only write genuinely new/deeper + findings — never a no-op re-write. Best-effort: never block or retry. + + **Route read-only lookups through the tool cache.** The evidence file + shares digested findings; the cache shares raw call results. Given + `buildId` and your own `testRunId` as `writerId`: + + - **Shell (any read-only command — the forge CLI, a runtime CLI, `curl`, `git`)** — prefix the fetch with the + wrapper; it behaves exactly like the raw command (same stdout, same exit + code) but only executes on a miss: + `node /bin/cached-exec.mjs ''` + Wrap ONLY the fetch and pipe *outside* it, so different downstream + filters share one cached fetch: + `node .../cached-exec.mjs "$B" 3895 'gh api repos/o/r/contents/f' | jq -r .content | head -40` + One fetch per call — the wrapper refuses `;`/`&&`/backticks/redirects. + - **Repo file contents** — use the repo reader instead of `gh api + .../contents/...` directly. It serves the file from a local clone at the + pinned commit when available, otherwise falls through to the cached `gh` call: + `node /bin/repo-read.mjs ` + The `` MUST be the commit sha from the evidence file's `deployState` + — a **branch name is refused** (local clones may be stale). + Check `localRepos` in the evidence file for which repos are local. + - **A local clone answers "what does this line say", never "who wrote it".** + Before trusting `git blame` or `git log -L` on one, check it is not shallow: + `git -C rev-list --count HEAD` returning `1`, or a `.git/shallow` file, + means every line of every file blames to the tip commit — the answer is fixed + before you ask, and the tip is only wherever the checkout happens to sit. + For real history, ask the forge: + `gh api "repos///commits?path=&sha="`. + **Falsify any blame result before you attribute anything to it**: fetch the + changed files of the commit it names, and if the file you were blaming is not + among them, the result is an artifact, not authorship. + - **`gh api .../contents/...` truncates a large file silently.** Pass + `-H "Accept: application/vnd.github.raw"`, and check the returned line count + is plausible before concluding that something is absent from a file. + - **MCP data queries** (a log or metrics server, `listTestIds`, + `getFailureLogs`) — check first, store your digest on a miss: + `node /bin/cached-mcp.mjs get ''` + (exit 0 = hit, skip the MCP call; exit 1 = miss, make the call then + `... put '' ` with the digest on stdin). + Skip caching for one-off queries only this test needs. + - **NEVER cache `tfaRcaTurn` / `getTfaTurnResult` / `triggerRcaReport`** — + they are stateful, and the cache refuses them outright. + - Don't re-probe a connector the gate already validated; the manifest above is + the answer, and it records what proved each one. + - Hit/miss banners go to stderr. `2>/dev/null` if you don't want them; see + § You clean up what you create before you redirect them to a file. + - Two more wrapper gotchas: **(i)** don't `2>&1 | jq` — that merges the banner + into the pipe, which is why the banner is on stderr in the first place. + **(ii)** commands containing single quotes can't nest inside a single-quoted + argument; pipe on stdin instead: + `printf '%s' '' | node .../cached-exec.mjs -`. + A pipe belongs outside the wrapper. + + **Scratch goes in your own directory, and you delete what you create.** + + Your cwd is the CUSTOMER's working directory, and every coordinator in this run + shares it. Never write scratch there. + + Prefer holding a fetched file in context — the tool cache already dedupes the + fetch, so a second copy on disk buys nothing. When you genuinely need one (a + response too large to hold, a message worth re-reading), put it in the directory + that is yours alone: + + ``` + node -e 'import("/lib/state-dir.mjs").then(m => + console.log(m.scratchDirFor("", "")))' + ``` + + Keyed on your own id, so no other agent can collide with you however you name a + file inside it — and it sits beside the CSV and the tool cache, where run state + already lives and the OS reclaims it, rather than in anyone's repo. + + **Then delete what you created, by name, before you finish.** Not a glob, not a + sweep, not "tidy the directory": you are the only party that knows which paths + you wrote, which is why this cannot be handed to the orchestrator or a later + step. **The plugin never deletes a file it did not create** — it runs on + someone's machine, so a wildcard would take their files with yours. Your own + directory makes that safe to get right; it does not excuse skipping it. + + One real run left 28 files and 572 KB in a customer's repo root — fetched + sources, saved diffs, raw API responses, redirected stderr, a drafted message. + Several coordinators had independently chosen the same short names, so they were + overwriting each other as well as littering. Nothing referenced any of it: the + findings live in the CSV rows, the evidence shards and the dashboard report. + + If a file must outlive your turn, name its path in your `RCA_OUTPUT` block so the + orchestrator knows it is deliberate rather than residue. + + **Never read an empty `prsInWindow` as "no PRs in the window."** An empty + list means "no PRs" ONLY when the entry also has `prsSearched: true`. + Check `coverage.reposWithUntrustedPrList` (or call + `hasTrustworthyPrList(doc, repo)`) before concluding anything from an empty + list — when untrusted, run the PR search live. Contribute the result back + (records `prsSearched`). +1. **Logs by TFA — the core contract.** Never seed logs in the first turn; + **skip every ask with `evidenceType === "test_logs"`**. Never fetch, paste, + or digest log content. Logs are TFA's job. +2. **Read-only.** Every gather mechanism is read-only. Never write to a repo, + cluster, ticket, or the run. Produce a block and stop. +3. **Turn-cap** = `turnCap` from `config/rca.config.json` (default 6). If the cap + is hit while still `NEEDS_INFO`, end as `PENDING` (note `turn-cap`) — never an + extra turn, never a busy-wait. +4. **One thread per test — with one narrow exception (4b).** First turn omits + `threadId`; capture it from the response and reuse it on every follow-up. + Never start a second thread EXCEPT the context-exceeded restart in 4b. +4b. **`TFA agent run failed` — resubmit ONCE; if that also fails, RESTART.** + On the FIRST such failure, resubmit on the SAME thread (counts as a turn). + Do NOT mint a new thread or end `PENDING` on one failure alone. + + **Two consecutive same-thread failures** (no successful response between + them) indicate `context_length_exceeded` — the thread is structurally dead. + + 1. **Distill** everything gathered into ONE condensed hypothesis message + (leading root-cause, strongest evidence, suspect PR) in `pre_seed` + shape. Discard the dead thread's history. + 2. **Submit as turn 1 of a BRAND NEW thread** (`tfaRcaTurn(testRunId, + message=)`, no `threadId`). Capture the new + `threadId`; turns count against the same `turnCap`. + 3. **Allow exactly ONE restart per test.** If the fresh thread also hits + two consecutive failures, end `PENDING` (note `"likely-context-exceeded"`). + +4b-i. **Two DIFFERENT TFA failures, don't confuse them.** + - `TFA agent run failed` — the wedge; handle per 4b (resubmit once, then + condensed restart on two consecutive). + - `turn expired or not found` — a size rejection, NOT a thread/turn problem. + Shorten and resend before assuming the thread is broken. + - **`turnId` exists ONLY on a soft-`PENDING` turn.** `RESOLVED` / + `NEEDS_INFO` omit it — `turn_id: not available` is correct there. If you + end `pending-resume`, you MUST carry the `turnId` into `flip()` — the + resume path drains that exact turn before submitting anything new. + +4b-ii. **Size-check any large fetch before trusting a negative result.** A + truncated payload turns "grep found nothing" into a silent false negative. + On any fetch of a big file: verify size or line count first, and only then + treat an absent match as evidence of absence. + +4c. **Keep every turn message under `turnMessageMaxChars` (5000)** — for + digest discipline (link, don't paste). Do not expect trimming to prevent + wedges; the wedge is a TFA-side fault. The reliable response is 4b + (resubmit), not shrinking the payload. + +5. **Soft-PENDING is DRAINED, not reported.** On `PENDING`, call + `getTfaTurnResult(testRunId, turnId)` and keep reading on the + `softPendingDrain` budget (`config/rca.config.json`: every 5s, ≤40 reads / + ≤10min) until status is `RESOLVED` / `NEEDS_INFO` / `BLOCKED`. Reads never + count against the turn cap. Never submit a new message onto a turn still in + flight. Only when the drain budget is fully spent does the run end `PENDING` + (note `soft-pending`), resumable via `threadId`+`turnId`. If the client has + no `getTfaTurnResult` tool, end `PENDING` immediately. +6. **Digest, don't dump.** Every follow-up `message` carries digested findings + (`ask → found → snippet/link`), never raw log tails, full diffs, or full files. + Size caps + block shape live in `/skills/rca-build/references/evidence-routing.md` + (NOT a bare `references/evidence-routing.md` — that resolves against + whatever directory you started in, not this plugin's root) — read it + before fulfilling any ask. The tool caps `message` at 5000 chars. +7. **Report gaps, don't drop them.** An ask the coordinator cannot fulfill becomes + a `not-found` / `unreachable` / `unavailable` block, never a silent omission — + and **never a user prompt**. TFA finalizes best-effort with lower confidence. +8. **Never editorialize.** Report findings (suspect PR, server-side error line), + not verdicts. The root cause is TFA's to state on `RESOLVED`; pass its + `glimpse` through verbatim. +9. **Field-filter every gather call, always.** Project down to only the + field(s) the ask needs — `--jq`, `-o custom-columns`, `-o jsonpath`, or a + piped `grep`/`head`. Never run the unfiltered form. This governs what + enters *your own* context (distinct from principle 6, which governs the + digest sent to TFA). Command templates: + `/skills/rca-build/references/github-evidence.md` § Field-filtering. + +## Application bugs — the culprit-PR mandate (MANDATORY) + +Whenever TFA's classification is **PRODUCT_BUG / application bug**, the github +connector is the deliverable: + +- **Hunt the culprit PR**: deploy timeline vs the last-pass window, changed + paths vs the failure signature (`/skills/rca-build/references/github-evidence.md`), run the + falsification protocol on each candidate. +- **With `suppliedPrs`, the hunt is the elimination, not the search.** Those PRs are the + candidates — every one of them, uncapped — and you add none. Falsify each and **report + each with its verdict, the ruled-out ones included and with the reason**: the customer + asked us to consider them, so dropping one silently reads as ignoring them. Only + `verdict: supported` goes in `prDetails` (it has no value for "ruled out"), so + eliminations go in the message. Say how many were supplied and how many survived. +- **Send every supported suspect in `tfaRcaTurn`'s `prDetails`, not in the message.** + That parameter exists for exactly this and takes one object per PR, all six fields + required: + + ``` + prDetails: [{ repo: "", number: , title: "", + author: "", link: "https://github.com//pull/", + tag: "regression" | "latent" }] + ``` + + Map it straight from the suspect packet + (`/skills/rca-build/templates/suspect-packet.md`), which carries all six: + `repo`→`repo`, `pr`→`number`, `title`→`title`, `author`→`author`, `link`→`link`, + `tag`→`tag`. Only `verdict: supported` suspects go in; ruled-out ones stay in the + message as disconfirming evidence. + + **A PR named only in the prose message is a PR that may not be recorded.** This + instruction used to read "feed the PR link(s) to TFA in the turn message", and it was + followed: across a sampled run of sixteen coordinators, `prDetails` was sent zero + times and every PR appeared as prose inside `message`. `related_prs` is an optional + field in the RCA the BrowserStack agent synthesises, and an optional field whose data + arrived as prose is the one that gets dropped. Naming a PR in the message as well is + fine and often useful — but the message is never the channel. + + **Do not fabricate a field to satisfy the shape.** No `author` for a suspect, or no + basis to classify `tag`? Say that in the message and leave that PR out of `prDetails` + rather than sending a guess — see the packet's § tag for the honest default and when + it applies. +- **An application-bug RCA with no GitHub PR link is INCOMPLETE.** Keep digging + on subsequent turns until the turn cap. If still none, the turn message must + explicitly state `no culprit PR identified after ` — and the orchestrator records the gap on the CSV row. + + **`suppliedPrs` is the exception.** Once every supplied PR has a verdict and none is + supported, the answer is **complete** — no merged PR explains this failure — and digging + to the turn cap spends turns on an enumeration that is already exhausted. State it as a + finding: `no supplied PR explains this failure`, plus the per-PR rule-out reasons. This + is the one case where a PR-less application-bug RCA is finished rather than short. +- If the github connector is invalid/absent (a gate-recorded gap), state the + same explicitly plus an `unavailable` block. Never fabricate a PR. + +## Suspect-PR falsification (github asks) + +For `product_code` / `deploy` / `ci` asks, follow `/skills/rca-build/references/github-evidence.md`: +gather evidence via **GitHub MCP → `gh` → degrade**, and for each candidate +suspect **try to disprove it** (path overlap? shipped before failure window? +behind an OFF flag?). Feed both supporting and disconfirming evidence as a +structured suspect packet; only `verdict: supported` suspects belong in +`related_prs`. Reuse the `evidenceFile`'s `github` section when present and not +`gap`-marked; write deeper findings back via `contributeCodeEvidence`.

A customer who wants to go further re-runs `/rca-build`, which resumes at +the first capability with neither a connector nor a gap — the profile is already on +disk. + +The GitHub retry loop in Step 0b is never cut short by this ceiling: GitHub is the +one capability a run cannot proceed without, so its re-asks are inside the budget +by construction, not competing with it. + +T1 and T3 are `≤1` because either can cost **nothing**: a build id supplied in the +args needs no question, and a part the pre-read settled is stated rather than asked. +Coming in under the ceiling is the goal, not a shortfall. + +**The gate's 3 is the same shape as first contact's 10** — one question plus a bounded +correction loop — and for the same reason: a screen the customer can read but not +correct is a screen they learn to ignore. Part C shows the whole persisted setup and +takes a change to it, so it needs a pass to show the result. The bound is two, the +third screen drops the change option, and the loop ends by construction. A repeat run +that is simply right still costs exactly one question, which is the common case and +the promise. + +The gate's question is spent on Part C's review whenever there is a persisted setup to +review, and on Part B's non-assumable field otherwise. It is never both: Part B folds +its field into Part C's call as an extra part. + +`AskUserQuestion` renders at most **4 parts per call and 4 options per part**, and +requires **at least 2 options per part** — a one-option part is rejected and the whole +call fails, so the parts that genuinely needed asking are lost with it. That is why +the interview turns MERGE parts sharing an identifier rather than splitting into more +calls, and why a settled part is dropped rather than sent as a confirmation +(`references/interview.md` § Question mechanics). Splitting T6 into one question per +capability would be the obvious-looking edit and would blow this budget on the first +customer who selects five. + +Every other mention of asking — in this file, in its references, and in +`agents/ai-tfa-coordinator.md` — points here rather than re-deriving the rule. +Restating it is what failed before: commit `164962f` added 52 lines enforcing a +rule and `395960c` added 82 more because the same rule was violated again. + +## API reference — read `references/api.md`, don't grep the source + +The `lib/`+`bin/` signatures the coordinator calls live in +[`references/api.md`](references/api.md). Load it the first time you need a +signature (Step 2 onward) — not at gate time. Grepping `lib/` at runtime to +relearn the API is the drift this file exists to prevent. + +## Step 0 — input, greeting, and context load + +Parse the build id from the invocation args. Accepted forms: a bare build id, a +`build_id=<id>` token, or a build dashboard link (extract the id). + +**The args are pasted prose, not flags.** In practice they arrive as a regression-bot +message — owner, ticket, `PR(s)`, a CI link — so read them with judgement. There is no +grammar to match and no parser to satisfy. + +Two things in them change the run, and both are **explicit statements by the person +invoking it**, which is what earns them precedence over anything derived: + +- **A PR list IS the candidate set.** Not a hint and not just pre-answered intake: the + customer's list is the superset of merged PRs, good and bad together, and finding the + bad ones is still ours. It replaces *enumeration* — no window search runs, for any repo + (§ Step 4). `references/interview.md` § Provenance explains why a human supplying this + is admitted where an artifact asserting it is refused. + + **Resolve each to `repo + number`.** A `/pull/<n>` URL is unambiguous. A bare `#<n>` + resolves against `profile.repos.product` — say which repo it matched. A number present + in more than one product repo is the gate's single consolidated question, because a PR + number is unique only within a repo and a profile commonly holds four. + +- **Any other value they pin is an override** — a CI run, an environment, a branch, a + ticket. It outranks what the run would have derived (§ Part B, precedence). + +Carry both into Gate Part B, and print them at the gate as `given` so the customer can +see what their paste did. + +**Then read the build's insights, before selecting anything.** The invocation carries +a build **id**; profile selection matches on the build **NAME** and the **project**, +neither of which an id tells you. Skipping this leaves `--build-name` empty, and an +empty name cannot match any `buildMatch` — so selection silently falls through to +`defaultProfile` and every multi-profile context resolves to whichever profile +happens to be the default. That is the wrong-context run this file's refusals exist +to prevent, arrived at without a single refusal firing. + +``` +fetchBuildInsights(buildId=<id>) → the build's name and its project +node <pluginRoot>/bin/rca-context.mjs select \ + --build-name "<name from insights>" --project-name "<project from insights>" +``` + +No id, or insights unavailable? Pass what you have and let selection degrade +honestly: `matchedBy: "default-profile"` says out loud that nothing was matched, and +`projectUnchecked: true` says the file asked for a project check that could not be +made. Both belong on the gate screen. Never invent a name to fill the flag. + +**Run both silently — emit nothing about either.** No "checking for a context file", +no "none found near the plugin root", no path resolution, and no build summary. That +is plumbing; the customer's first screen should not be spent on it, and the greeting +below has to be the first thing they read. + +`select`, not `read`: `read` returns the document and does no selection, so it +cannot tell you whether this run may proceed. `select` returns the chosen profile +plus `runnable`, `provisioned`, `resumeAt` and `stale`, or exits non-zero with a +refusal naming what it would otherwise have had to guess.

Print nothing raw, go to Step 0b, and let +them choose (see § Step 0b, adopt-or-extend). + +**Never launder a refusal with `--profile`.** Re-running `select --profile <label>` +after it refused overrides the exact check that just fired, and it is the agent +deciding what only the customer can. `--profile` carries a choice a **human just +made**; it is never how you get past a no. A live run did this — refused, re-ran with +`--profile`, replayed five connectors green, and reported the setup as valid for a +suite the profile does not name. `matchedBy: "requested"` in the output is the tell, +and `overriddenBuildMatch` names the patterns that were ignored: if either appears +without a human answer behind it, stop and ask. + +**No build id?** It becomes the interview's first question at Step 0b (T1), or the +gate's single consolidated question on a repeat run. It is the one genuinely +load-bearing field. + +### Step 0a — greeting (the ownership split), first contact only + +**This is your first output to the customer — the first thing they read, not the +first thing before a question.** In a real run this arrived seventh, after five tool +calls, quoted inside a status update that opened with "No context file anywhere near +either the plugin root or the working directory". The copy was complete and the +customer still experienced it as missing, because it was buried in a wall of `ls` +and `cat` output and framed as a footnote to a diagnostic. + +So: nothing precedes it on screen. Do not prefix it with what you looked for or +where. Do not follow it with internal vocabulary — "session inventory", "write +target", "T2b" mean nothing to them. + +Say what each side owns: + +> Through BrowserStack I already have the test logs, traces, screenshots and the +> session for every failed test in this build — and the BrowserStack agent authors +> the RCA itself. What I have none of is your side: the product code, your +> application logs, your pipeline, whatever runs your services, your metrics. +> I need to learn where your half lives. That takes a few questions, once, and +> then never again. + +A canned split is true and useless. Name what you can actually see in this session, +so the customer can tell the interview is short. + +Say once, here, that **GitHub is the only thing that can stop setup.** + +### Step 0b — FIRST CONTACT: the interview + +Follow `<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/references/interview.md`. It owns the turn +order (T0–T8), the exact question shapes, the pre-read budget, the +procedure-authoring template and the refusal wording. +`<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/references/capabilities.md` owns what to ask per +capability and what "verified" means for each. + +**Adopt-or-extend mode** — entered from a `no-matching-profile` or +`no-matching-project` refusal, not from an empty file. A verified setup already exists; +what is missing is whether it covers *this* build. So the interview does not start over: + +- **T0 says what was found**, naming the profile, what it binds, and that this build's + name is not in it. Then **one** question, whose options are the three real answers: + a **new profile** for this build; **add this build's pattern** to the existing one; or + **use the existing profile for this run only**, changing nothing on disk. +- **Connectors are inherited, never re-authored.** A new profile in the same + environment reuses the verified `ci`, `infra`, `logs` and `metrics` procedures — + copy them and **re-verify**, exactly as Gate Part A replays them. Asking a customer + again for a log store, a cluster or a metrics surface they already named is the + failure this mode exists to avoid. +- **Ask only what genuinely differs.** For a sibling suite that is usually the repos, + the subpaths and the base branches — nothing else. T2/T2c still run, because which + repos a *different* suite exercises is a question the pre-read can often answer. +- **Extending is a write like any other**: read, amend `buildMatch` (or add the + profile), `write`. The writer refuses to drop a profile or downgrade a verified + connector (`code: "would-regress"`), so adding a sibling profile cannot cost the + existing one. +- **"This run only" writes nothing** and must say so on screen, or the customer will + reasonably expect the next run to remember. + +Six rules that live here because they are not negotiable: + +- **The context lands in the directory you were invoked in** (T2b). Not in a repo + chosen by lookup — the directory itself, whether or not it is a git repo. The one + refusal is the plugin's own checkout: the documented install flow leaves cwd there + and a context written there puts the customer's scope into the plugin repository. + If that is where you are, say so and ask which directory is theirs; it costs part + of T3's question rather than a failed write after the whole interview. + +- **The build's insights are the interview's first tool call** (T1b), before the + artifact pass and before any scope question. They are the only source describing + *this run* rather than the setup in general — the branches per role, the + environment label that is frequently a grouping's literal name, the CI run URL that + identifies the pipeline. Read them late and the interview asks for what the build + already stated. + +- **Nothing is asked before the artifact pass** (T2, and T2c for what lives inside + their repos). The build id at T1 is the only question that may precede it, and only + when the invocation carried none. A customer asked for something they had already + written down reads as not having been listened to. + +- **The repo pre-read runs against the CUSTOMER's worktree, never this plugin's** + (T2c, *before* T3 asks for the repos — its options are what the pre-read found, + each cited to the file it came from). Our own repo names tools we do not want to + suggest as their stack, and a listing of theirs is not a finding about them. +- **GitHub is mandatory**, bounded at 2 re-asks / 3 attempts, each re-ask narrowed + by failure class. After the bound: refuse, start no RCA work, and write nothing + extra — whatever verified is already on disk, because writes are per-connector. +- **Persist as you go, never in one batch at the end.** The first `write` fires as + soon as T4 passes — the first moment the home repo, the repos, the branches and one + verified connector are all known. After that every capability lands through + `upsert-connector` or `record-gap` as it resolves. Abandonment then costs the + customer nothing and there is no partial state to model. (T8 is a confirmation and + a final additive write for corrections, not the first write.) + +It ends by writing the context and **falling through into Step 1** — first contact +never ends the session and never starts RCA work of its own. + +## Step 1 — THE GATE (opens once per run, three parts, closes once) + +Everything **this run** could possibly need from the user is settled here, in one +pass — because first contact already settled everything that is stable across runs. +The gate has three parts; all run before any RCA work starts. Part C is the repeat +run's review of what a previous run persisted, and it is skipped when first contact +just did that job. + +### Part A — capability validation from the persisted context + +Part A does not discover. **It replays.** The selected profile already records, per +capability, what the connector is, how to query it, and the read that proved it — +so the probe is data the interview wrote, not prose this file carries. That single +reframing is why there is no probe table here any more. + +There was one: six named commands for six named products, and a `via:` field whose +allowed values were those products. A customer running something not on that list +was second-class, and no such list can ever be complete. Deciding that a given CLI is this +team's runtime, or that a given MCP server is their metrics, is a judgement about +what a tool is FOR — which you make, and which generalises to a stack nobody here +has heard of. + +**Re-run every capability's stored `verifiedBy` read, all of them in ONE batch of +parallel tool calls.** They are independent; nothing waits on anything else. Then: + +- pass → `valid` +- fail, and the capability is **github** → the run refuses (below) +- fail, anything else → a **scoped gap**. A per-target failure is not a + connector-wide failure: the capability stays `valid` for the targets that passed. + Collapsing that into a dead capability is what makes a coordinator degrade to + "unavailable" over one bad value. + +Build the manifest with `buildManifest(config, discovered)` from the capabilities +the profile records — `discovered` is `[{capability, via}]`. It also resolves +`fallbackCapability`, which is how a team whose CI *is* their git forge keeps +gathering `ci` evidence without declaring a phantom gap to TFA. + +A connector-shaped skill under `.claude/skills/` is a **procedure**, not a hint: it +carries the repo map, branch conventions and query conventions its author wrote +down, which is the knowledge that makes attribution accurate and that no probe can +recover. When the profile records `source: {kind: "skill", path}` for a capability, +**read that file and follow it** — and if it has changed since `verifiedAt`, prefer +what it now says over the stored `howToQuery`. + +Its absence is the normal case and is **never** a warning. The previous version of +this file emitted "scope probes missing" for every customer without +BrowserStack-authored skills on disk, which is all of them. + +**GitHub is mandatory.** A GitHub capability that fails replay here **refuses the +run**: culprit-PR attribution is this plugin's primary deliverable and cannot be +degraded silently. Bound: **one** re-ask — the context already recorded a shape that +worked once, so a failure here means the repo moved or a credential expired. Name +which route failed (`gh` or a GitHub MCP server) and how to fix it. Never say +GitHub is unavailable in general; this plugin needs a **local** route, and a +customer may well have the dashboard GitHub App connected. + +**Every other** capability that comes back invalid or absent is a recorded gap — +shown in the gate summary, declared to TFA on the first turn ("I don't have +logs/metrics access") — **never a blocker**; the run proceeds. + +**Mid-run is different, and this distinction matters more than either rule.** Once +the gate has closed, every capability failure — GitHub included — is a gap and never +a blocker. A coordinator refusing mid-run would sink the batch and break +partial-first. A coordinator never refuses. + +**Before your first `listTestIds` call: for every capability recorded `valid`, you +must be able to name the read that proved it and what came back.** If you cannot, +you did not replay it — go back and do that. + +### Part B — intake resolution (context first, then assume; ask at most once) + +Intake fields: product repo, automation (test) repo, working branch, default +branch, the PRs in play, and the build id. **Resolve every field by ASSUMPTION +wherever possible** — this is an assumption-OK workflow; less user interaction +is the point: + +- invocation args (build id, PR URLs, repo hints from Step 0), +- `gh repo view` / git remotes for the repos, +- **working branch — resolve in this order:** + 1. `fetchBuildInsights(buildId=<id>)`'s `branch` field, when a build id is + known and the MCP tool returns one. This is the branch the build actually + ran on — authoritative, and preferred over any assumption below. + 2. If `fetchBuildInsights` is unavailable, errors, or returns no `branch` + (older build, field absent), fall back to whatever branch the user + supplied in their skill invocation args. + 3. Only if neither is available, fall through to the connector's + intake-defaults, then the current git branch, per the existing order + below. +- cheap inference (e.g. the automation repo is the cwd if it holds the tests). + +**Precedence, highest first — and the profile outranks any connector skill:** + +1. **an explicit invocation value** — something the customer typed for this run, +2. build metadata from `fetchBuildInsights` (the branch the build actually ran on), +3. **the selected profile in `.rca-context.json`**, +4. a connector skill's own intake-defaults section, +5. inference. + +**(1) and (2) used to be the other way round, and that made pinning impossible.** Build +metadata was ranked first because it beats any *assumption* — which is true, and an +invocation value is not an assumption, it is a statement. Under the old order a customer +who pinned a CI run lost to `ci_build_url` naming a different one, which is the opposite +of what pinning means. Only values the customer **actually typed** move; an absent one +changes nothing, so metadata still beats the profile, connector defaults and inference +exactly as before. + +Show the reconciliation whenever a higher rank overrides a lower one. Only a field that +none of the five supply is a candidate for the gate's single question. + +**An override lasts for this run and persists nothing.** It must not quietly rewrite the +committed profile — a pasted one-off would become the team's permanent scope, inherited by +every teammate who never saw the paste. Persisting is Part C's decision and is reached by +asking. **A credential value is never an override**, or anything else: § Credentials in +`references/interview.md` forbids one reaching the file or the transcript, and an +invocation is not an exception to that. + +The profile sitting above connector intake-defaults is the whole point: a customer +answered those questions and a live read proved them. If a connector skill's lane +table could override that, first contact would prove nothing. And a connector +skill's intake section that doesn't resolve a field for THIS build — its lane table +doesn't match the failure signature at all — is not a default to force; treat the +field as genuinely non-assumable and let it fall through. + +**Product-repo corroboration (do NOT skip).** The product repo must plausibly +be the _system under test for THIS build's failures_ — not merely a repo name +found lying around. A repo mentioned only in workspace docs/READMEs is a **weak +hint, never an assumption**: cross-check it against the failure signatures +(discovery runs first if needed) — do the failing area, files, or error strings +relate to that repo's domain? If they don't (e.g. the failures are self-healing +`healedElement is null` cases but the only named repo is an observability API), +the doc-sourced repo is discarded — never carry it (or its PRs) into the +manifest as a settled product repo. + +When corroboration leaves **no** product repo, decide by whether a human can help: + +- **PRs were supplied** → treat those as the suspect surface; product repo is + derived from them. No question needed. +- **No PRs, interactive session** → the product repo is now **non-assumable AND + load-bearing** (without it the mandatory culprit-PR hunt is dead), so it earns + the single consolidated gate question below — ask it; don't silently degrade. +- **No PRs and no corroborated repo** → this case is now nearly unreachable, + because first contact recorded and verified the product repos. It survives only + for the case where the profile's repos do not plausibly own THIS build's failures, + and it is the same single question — not an extra one. Record the answer back into + the active profile so it is never asked twice. + +Record each assumption in the gate summary (format: +`templates/gate-summary.md`; worked example: `examples/sample-run.md`) +("assumed product repo = +`org/obs-api` from git remote"). A field that cannot be assumed is recorded as +"none" and the run proceeds RCA-only for it — **unless** it is both genuinely +non-assumable AND load-bearing. In practice that set is: the build id; **the +product repo when it could not be corroborated and no PRs were supplied** (see +above — without it the culprit-PR hunt cannot run); and rarely an ambiguous repo +when PRs were supplied. Those, and only those, may be asked **ONCE, in a single +consolidated question at gate close** — e.g. _"Failures look like `<domain>`; +which repo owns that code? (reply 'none' → I'll RCA without culprit-PR +attribution)."_ Never a second question. + +**Before your first `AskUserQuestion` call this pass: write out every field +this run still needs from the user, across every reason it might be +non-assumable, in one list — then ask them as ONE question with multiple parts +if more than one survives.** If you are about to send a second +`AskUserQuestion` call **within one pass**, STOP — fold its content into the +first question instead. There is never a second question in a pass. + +**A pass is not a question.** Part C may reprint and re-ask **the same** question after +applying a change the customer asked for, at most twice (§ The question budget). That +is one question answered, acted on, and shown back — not a second question. What is +forbidden is asking for something *new* that the first call should have carried: that +is the defect the fold-it-in rule above exists for, and it is forbidden in every pass, +including the second and third. + +**This governs the gate only.** Step 0b's interview has its own budget +(§ The question budget) and has already finished by the time you reach here. Do not +read this paragraph as a prohibition on interviewing. +Record the answer back into the active profile so a field asked once is never asked +again. A repo, a branch or a subpath is **not** a connector — `upsert-connector` cannot +write `profile.repos`, and this used to say it could, which is why an answered product +repo was re-typed on every run. Persist it the way Part C does: read, amend that field, +`write`. + +### Part C — review and confirm (repeat runs only) + +**Skip entirely when first contact ran this session.** T8 already showed this and the +customer already approved it; a second confirmation of the same screen reads as not +having listened. This part exists for the *repeat* run, where the setup was approved +weeks ago by someone who may not be the person sitting here now. + +Print the **whole** setup — not a summary of it. Layout and the exact question shape: +`templates/gate-summary.md` § The review. Every value the run will act on appears: +the profile and **how it was matched**, the other profiles available, repos by role, +subpaths, branches, both match patterns, every connector with what proved it and how +long ago, gaps, warnings, and applied knowledge. A value that is not on screen cannot +be corrected, and the whole point of this part is that it can be. + +Then **one** consolidated question. Always at least two real options — a one-option +part is refused by the tool and the entire call is lost (§ The question budget): + +- proceed; +- use a different profile, when the file holds one (`select --profile <label>` + re-selects and re-checks runnable); +- change a value — the free-form field carries *what* to change, including adding a + repo or a whole new profile; +- finish setup, when the profile is runnable but not provisioned. + +**A change is applied, persisted, and re-verified before the gate closes.** Persist by +reading the document, amending that field, and `write` — the writer refuses to drop a +profile, drop a connector, or downgrade a verified one (`code: "would-regress"`), so an +amend cannot cost a teammate their setup. That refusal lives in the writer, which is +why there is no per-field verb: one safe additive write covers correcting a branch, +adding a repo, and adding a profile, and a narrower verb would cover only the first two. + +**A change to scope invalidates what was verified against the old scope.** Re-run the +affected capability's read before closing — a base branch the customer just corrected +has never been proved reachable, and carrying the old `verifiedBy` forward would state +that it was. + +**Bounded at two further passes.** Print, ask, apply, print again — and on the third +screen the change option is gone, so the loop terminates by construction rather than by +judgement. A customer who wants more re-runs `/rca-build`, which now starts from the +corrected file. + +### Gate close + +Print a one-screen summary: resolved intake (with assumptions marked) + the +validated capability manifest (with gaps named). Then the gate closes. + +**AFTER THE GATE CLOSES, THE RUN NEVER ASKS THE USER ANYTHING AGAIN.** RCA +execution is fully autonomous: every downstream evidence gap becomes an +`unavailable` block back to TFA (best-effort finalize), never a prompt. + +## Step 2 — discovery + +Call the bundled MCP tool: + +``` +listTestIds(buildId=<id>, status="failed", includeFailureDetail=true) +``` + +`includeFailureDetail=true` returns each row's trimmed failure signature +(`failure.{category, error_summary, file_path, …}`) — the seed for clustering, +so no per-test probe turns are needed. + +**First, sweep the state directory** (`lib/state-dir.mjs` → `hardenStateDir(dir)`). +The sweep is cheap and idempotent — run it unconditionally; it never throws, +skipping anything it cannot chmod. + +Resolve the state file with `lib/csv-state.mjs` → `csvPathFor(buildId, +config.paths.stateDir)` — the **build id is in the filename** and the default +directory is **OS temp** (`<tmpdir>/bstack-rca/rca-state.<buildId>.csv`), so +different builds can never collide and the invoking workspace stays clean. Pass +this exact path to the fan-out workflow as `csvPath`. + +Seed the CSV/WAL spine from the payload (`lib/csv-state.mjs` → `seed`): one row +per failed test, every row `rca_done=pending`, signature columns populated. +Re-running `seed` on an existing CSV is idempotent and preserves terminal rows +(resume-safe — same build id → same path). If `listTestIds` returns empty → +write an empty CSV, report "no failed tests", stop. + +## Step 3 — clustering (see `<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/references/clustering.md`) + +Cluster from the server's failure themes so each *cause* runs one +**representative** (full loop) + `N−1` **siblings** (one-turn confirm) while every +test still lands a per-test RCA; no themes → every test its own singleton. + +**Run the call sequence and invariants in `references/clustering.md` (§ Running +it).** After it, `writeRows(csvPath, rows)` and verify: if any row's `cluster_id` +is empty, Step 3 did not take effect — do not proceed. + +## Step 4 — build-evidence pre-fetch (see `<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/references/evidence-routing.md` and `<pluginRoot>/lib/evidence-file.mjs`) + +Once, after clustering (Step 3) and before fan-out — the capability manifest +already exists from Gate Part A, reuse it, do not re-discover. This step +replaces each coordinator's own turn-1 evidence sweep with ONE pre-fetch: +it does not remove the requirement that turn-1 evidence exists, only _who +gathers it_. + +**Narrate this as one combined phase, not two sequential ones.** Step 4b +starts the moment Step 3 finishes and runs the whole time Step 4 does — any +progress line should say `Evidence pre-fetch (Step 4) + turn-1 pre-dispatch +(Step 4b)`, never "Step 4 done, now starting Step 4b." + +1. Resolve the evidence-file path: `lib/evidence-file.mjs` → + `evidencePathFor(buildId, config.paths.stateDir)` — + `<tmpdir>/bstack-rca/rca-evidence.<buildId>.json`, alongside the state CSV. + `initEvidenceFile(path, buildId, nowMs)`. +2. **Scope the pre-fetch to the full union, never a single guess:** + - **Repos** — every repo in Gate Part A's scope-probe-validated + `repos_validated` list (a build's failures often span several repos — + validate the full set the connector maps, not one guessed repo). + - **Workloads** — the union of workloads every cluster's **representative** + implicates, via the active connector skill's failure-signature→workload + routing table (never one workload guessed from the first failing test). +3. For each repo: run the connector skill's PR-window-search + deploy-state + recipes **once**, using `lib/evidence-cache.mjs`'s `compute(repo, range, +evidenceType, fn)` to dedupe if two steps need the same `(repo, range)`. + Persist the deploy-state via + `setCodeEvidence(path, repo, {deployState, prsInWindow, gap}, nowMs)`. + A repo the connector can't reach records `{gap: "<reason>"}` — never blocks + the rest of the pre-fetch. + + **For the PR window, do NOT hand-build the entry — use the deterministic + helper**, once per repo, all repos fired as parallel tool calls in ONE message: + + ```bash + node bin/prefetch-prs.mjs <buildId> <org/repo> <branch> <fromISO> <toISO> + ``` + + **When Step 0 carried a PR list, use the supplied form instead — for every repo:** + + ```bash + node bin/prefetch-prs.mjs <buildId> <org/repo> --prs <n,n,n> + ``` + + **No window search runs anywhere in that case.** The customer's list is the candidate + set for the whole run, so a repo their list never names simply has no candidates — + record that as a warning at the gate (`templates/gate-summary.md`), never as a reason to + search it anyway. An empty result for such a repo must read as *nothing was offered for + it*, not *we looked and found nothing*. + + **Hydration still runs.** The list gives you numbers; path-overlap is the first + falsification test and needs each PR's `files`, so the binary fetches them per PR. That + is why this is the same binary and not a prose shortcut: it writes the identical + `prsInWindow` + `prsSearched: true`, and `prsSearched` is what stops every downstream + reader treating a complete list as "never searched". + + **Repo scope with a supplied list is the UNION** of Gate Part A's `repos_validated` + and the repos the supplied PRs name. Without the union a PR in a repo the gate never + validated has no path into `prsInWindow` at all — the customer named it and it would + vanish. + + It runs the `--json number,title,author,mergedAt,url,files --limit 100` search and + writes the **canonical `prsInWindow` (with `files`) + `prsSearched: true`** via + `setCodeEvidence`, preserving any `deployState` already recorded. **Never author + the github entry by hand** (e.g. a `{prCount5d, topPRs}` blob): readers consume + only `prsInWindow`, so a mis-shaped entry silently reads as "never searched" and + every coordinator re-fetches the list live. `setCodeEvidence` now **rejects** + non-canonical keys (`assertGithubEntry`) so this fails loud instead of shipping a + dead file. A non-`gh` GitHub capability pre-fetches through its own connector but + writes the identical shape. + + Why `files` matters: path-overlap is the first falsification test in + `<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/references/github-evidence.md`, so with `files` populated a coordinator + rules a suspect in or out from the evidence file alone, and only fetches a + diff for the handful that survive. Do NOT pre-fetch diffs — those are large + and only a few PRs ever need one. + + A per-PR `gh pr view --json files` call is legitimate in exactly two cases: a + suspect PR discovered later (during a coordinator's own investigation, not in + this pre-fetch's window), and **a customer-supplied list, where per-PR is the + only shape available** — there is no search to project `files` out of. It is + never a backfill for a PR-list call that should have carried `files` the first + time. + + - **Never let coordinators re-probe connectors.** State plainly in the + dispatch prompt that the gate validated them. + - **Do NOT bulk-fetch file contents.** The `files` lists above tell a + coordinator exactly which files matter, and the tool cache dedupes the + ones two coordinators both open. +4. For each workload: run the runtime and log sweep for it **once**, through + whatever the manifest says serves `infra` and `logs`, anchored to the build's + own clock — never "now". **Batch all workload sweeps together with repo fetches from step 3.** + **PAD the window: `started_at − 2m` .. `finished_at + 10m`.** Label every + finding with whether it falls inside or outside the strict window so a + coordinator can weigh it; do NOT silently widen to an arbitrary window. + Persist via `setLogsEvidence(path, workload, +{clusterIds, kubectlSweep, victorialogs, gap}, nowMs)`. Those last two are + **grandfathered field names** in the evidence-file schema, not an assumption + about your stack: `kubectlSweep` is the runtime sweep and `victorialogs` the log + query, whatever tool actually served them. Renaming them would break resume for + builds already in flight, so they stay until that schema is versioned. + + Two query mechanics that cost real calls when missed: + - **`direction` defaults to newest-first**, so a limited query always + returns the END of the window. To find when something _started_ — the + first request after a gap, the onset of an error burst — pass + `direction: "forward"`. A gap "confirmed" from a backward query is not + confirmed at all; it is just the tail of the range. + - **Absence needs a control.** A zero-result query is indistinguishable + from a wrong selector. Before reporting "no traffic", prove the logger + was alive in the same window with a query you expect to be non-empty + (e.g. readiness probes from a named pod). Only then is silence evidence. + +5. `resolveBaseline(lastGreenRef, fallbackRef)` (from `lib/evidence-cache.mjs`) + → `setBaseline(path, baseline, suspectWindow, nowMs)`. No "last green" + baseline (never-green suite) → fall back to a configured baseline ref and + note the weaker grounding — this note travels into the file, not just a + spoken log line, so every coordinator sees it. +6. **Resolve local clones ONCE** (`lib/repo-source.mjs`). Local `git show` + serves the same bytes as `gh api` with no network round trip. + + ```js + const d = discoverWorkspaceRoot({ repos: reposValidated, from: pluginRoot }); + const { pins } = deployShas(path); // structured, not prose + const localRepos = d.root + ? resolveLocalRepos({ repos: reposValidated, pins, workspaceRoot: d.root }) + : {}; + setLocalRepos(path, { workspaceRoot: d.root, repos: localRepos }, nowMs); + ``` + + `discoverWorkspaceRoot` takes the **validated repo list** and accepts a + candidate directory only if it actually contains one of *this run's* repos, + bounded to ~3 tries. Finding nothing is fine: every read falls back to the + cached `gh` path. + + Set `deployState.sha` explicitly when you write each repo's entry. + `deployShas()` falls back to parsing prose `summary`, but that is a + safety net, not the contract. + + `pins` must be the **build-time commit shas** from `deployState`, never + branch names — a local branch may be stale. + + **Pass `resolveLocalRepos`'s return value through unchanged — never hand-author + the map.** With no pin for a repo it returns + `{usable: false, reason: "no pinned sha for this repo"}` — a refusal, and the + thing that stops a coordinator trusting a stale checkout. Hand-writing the entry + deletes the refusal, and a coordinator told a clone is usable has no way to + learn otherwise. Same rule as the github entry above, and for the same reason. + +7. `recomputeCoverage(path, {repos, workloads}, nowMs)` and declare the + resulting path in the gate summary alongside the capability manifest, so + a human re-reading the run can find it. + +**Size discipline is enforced at write time, not just at submit time.** Every +leaf (`deployState`, each PR, each log sweep) must already be a digested +`block` per `evidence-routing.md`'s caps (`SUMMARY≤400`, `SNIPPET≤20/40 lines`, +link over diff) — never a raw dump. Cap `prsInWindow` to the top ~30 candidates +by path-overlap relevance, not every PR in the window. + +**The cap applies to a SEARCHED window only.** A customer-supplied list is never +capped: they named those PRs, and dropping some by our relevance ranking answers a +question they did not ask while looking like a complete result. Digest each one's +`block` to the same caps — that bounds size without discarding a candidate. + +Pass `evidencePathFor(...)`'s path to Step 5's fan-out as `evidenceFilePath` — +every dispatch (representative and sibling) must be told to read it first. + +## Step 4b — turn-1 pre-dispatch (fire-and-forget, fully async alongside Step 4) + +Every cluster's representative testRunId is already known the moment Step 3 +finishes. Turn 1's message has no dependency on Step 4's evidence pre-fetch — +it is built entirely from Step 2's CSV seed (`error_summary`/`testName`). So +there is no need to wait for Step 4 before starting Step 4b, or to wait for +Step 4b before moving on. + +**Mechanic: dispatch, don't wait.** For every cluster representative, launch +one lightweight subagent via the Agent tool whose ONLY job is to call +`tfaRcaTurn(testRunId=<rep>, message=<first-turn digest>)` once and emit one +fixed-shape block as its final output — no evidence gathering, no loop, no +drain. Write a minimal, purpose-built inline prompt (not a full +`ai-tfa-coordinator` dispatch), and put the exact output contract below +directly in that prompt so the orchestrator can parse the result +deterministically. + +``` +TURN1_OUTPUT_START +testRunId: <the testRunId this subagent was given> +status: RESOLVED | NEEDS_INFO | PENDING +threadId: <threadId from the tfaRcaTurn response, or "none"> +turnId: <turnId — PENDING only, tfaRcaTurn never returns one for the other two statuses; else "none"> +glimpse: <RESOLVED only — the trimmed {root_cause, failure_type, related_prs, confidence, viewRca} object, verbatim; else "none"> +asks: <NEEDS_INFO only — the asks array, verbatim; else "none"> +TURN1_OUTPUT_END +``` + +That block is this subagent's entire final message — `status` selects the +branch, `testRunId` is the join key back to the CSV row / registry entry, and +the remaining fields paste straight into `flip()` or `recordTurn1()`. + +Agent-tool dispatches return immediately (fire-and-forget). Fire off every +representative's dispatch together, then **immediately proceed to Step 4's +evidence pre-fetch — do not wait for any of them.** + +As each subagent finishes, a task-notification carrying its `TURN1_OUTPUT` +block arrives. Handle each one the moment you are next free to, as pure +bookkeeping — no new tool calls needed for this part: + +1. `initTurn1Registry(turn1PathFor(buildId, config.paths.stateDir), buildId, nowMs)` + once, before dispatching any turn 1s (`lib/turn1-registry.mjs`). +2. **Skip any representative whose CSV row already has a `threadId` + + `turnId`** (a `pending-resume` row from a prior run attempt — an already + in-flight thread). Dispatching a fresh turn 1 for it would start a SECOND + thread for the same test, which every other part of this contract + (`agents/ai-tfa-coordinator.md`'s "one thread per test" hard limit) forbids. + That representative resumes its existing thread at Step 5 exactly as + before Step 4b existed — Step 4b only ever applies to a representative with + no prior thread at all. +3. For every remaining (thread-less) cluster representative, dispatch its + turn-1 subagent. When its result notification lands, branch on it: + - **RESOLVED** → `flip()` this CSV row straight to terminal, right here — + same fields a coordinator's `RCA_OUTPUT` would set (`rca_done: resolved`, + `root_cause`, `failure_type`, `related_prs`, `view_rca`, `confidence`, + `turns_used: 1`, `threadId`). This representative needs **no Step 5 + dispatch at all** — the cheapest possible outcome. **Do not wait for + Step 5 to formally start: dispatch this cluster's siblings immediately, + right here in Step 4b** — as their own fire-and-forget Agent-tool + dispatches too, same principle, don't wait on them either — via + `siblingPreSeed(csvPath, csvState, clusterId, representativeId)` against + the row you just flipped. A sibling only ever needs its OWN + representative's result, never the state of any other cluster, so + nothing about Step 5's fan-out has to begin first. This is the ONLY case + a sibling can be dispatched this early, and the reason is narrow: it + works because the representative resolved in ONE pre-dispatched turn, so + `pre_seed` is already real evidence, not a guess. A representative still + mid-loop (`NEEDS_INFO`/`PENDING`) has no `root_cause` yet — dispatching + that cluster's siblings before it lands would degrade every one of them + into a full independent investigation, at real representative-level cost + instead of a cheap one-turn confirm (see Step 5's sibling-ordering note). + Never do that; siblings of a not-yet-resolved representative wait for + Step 5 exactly as documented there. + - **NEEDS_INFO** → `recordTurn1(path, testRunId, {status: "NEEDS_INFO", + threadId, asks}, nowMs)`. A real, non-terminal answer — hand it to Step + 5's coordinator as `turn1_result` (never resubmit turn 1). + - **PENDING** → `recordTurn1(path, testRunId, {status: "PENDING", threadId, + turnId}, nowMs)`. Do **not** drain it here — there is no reason to spend + any of the orchestrator's own time on it. Step 5's coordinator dispatch + already knows how to drain a soft-PENDING (the existing `resume` input + covers this case as-is). +4. Nothing about this starts a second thread: it is exactly turn 1 of the one + thread the Step 5 coordinator continues from `threadId`. +5. **A subagent that never reports back fails open, not closed.** Step 5's + `readTurn1` returns nothing → Step 5 falls back to a fresh dispatch + (submit turn 1 from scratch, no `resume`/`turn1_result`). If the dead + subagent did reach `tfaRcaTurn`, that thread is orphaned — not a + correctness problem, just one wasted thread per failure. + +**Dispatch at most `concurrency` (from `config/rca.config.json`) turn-1 +subagents at a time.** For a build with more cluster representatives than that, +issue the first `concurrency` immediately, then issue the next batch as soon +as they're dispatched (still fire-and-forget, still never blocking Step 4's +own progress). + +**The very first turn can contain Step 4b's setup-and-first-dispatch-batch +together with Step 4's own first evidence-gathering calls, in the same batch.** + +Pass `turn1PathFor(...)`'s path to Step 5 alongside `evidenceFilePath` — Step 5 +must read it (`readTurn1(path, testRunId)`) before building each +representative's dispatch and translate the result into the matching input: +`PENDING` → `resume: {threadId, turnId}`; `NEEDS_INFO` → `turn1_result: +{threadId, asks}`; a flipped-to-terminal row (no registry entry, CSV already +`resolved`) → no dispatch, use the CSV row's result directly as this cluster's +representative outcome for seeding siblings. + +## Step 5 — fan-out (fully autonomous) + +**REQUIRED gate before your first Step 5 dispatch: Step 4b's dispatch batch +must have already been ISSUED this pass — not completed, not waited on, +issued.** **If you are about to issue Step 5's representative dispatches and +cannot point to this pass's `initTurn1Registry` call and a turn-1 dispatch +batch issued for every thread-less cluster representative, STOP — go back and +fire that dispatch batch first.** This is NOT a "wait for Step 4b's subagents +to finish" gate — it only catches the case where Step 4b never happened at +all. + +**ORDER MATTERS: representative first, siblings only after it lands.** For each +cluster, dispatch the representative, wait for its row to go terminal, then +dispatch its siblings carrying `pre_seed` from +`siblingPreSeed(csvPath, csvState, clusterId, representativeId)`. Clusters are +independent, so they still run concurrently *with each other* — the barrier is +per cluster, not global. + +`siblingPreSeed` returns `{ok:false, reason}` when the representative is not +resolved or recorded no `root_cause` — **do not dispatch that sibling yet**. +Never hand-roll the seed: without this guard, siblings degenerate into full +independent investigations at representative-level cost. + +Drive the cluster work-list **`concurrency` at a time** — read `concurrency` from +`config/rca.config.json`, never hardcode a number: representatives deep, siblings +one-turn-confirm. Eagerly persist to the CSV/WAL (claim → heartbeat → flip) so the +run is resumable. Keep it a **rolling queue, not two rigid phases**: as each batch +returns, refill up to `concurrency` by mixing freed representatives' siblings (via +`siblingPreSeed`) with not-yet-dispatched representatives from other clusters — +never "all representatives, then all siblings," which idles a fast cluster's +siblings behind an unrelated slow representative. + +Dispatch path, in preference order: + +- **Direct Agent-tool dispatch** — **the default.** Dispatch + `tfa-rca:ai-tfa-coordinator` subagents in batches of `concurrency` (one message, up + to `concurrency` tool-use blocks), refilling per the rolling queue above. Honors the + JSON `concurrency` literally. Coordinator output flows back into the orchestrator's + context — kept affordable by the compact `RCA_OUTPUT` contract. A batch is a barrier + (the next batch waits for the slowest in the current one). + **This path has no code enforcing the Step 4b handoff — you are the enforcement.** + Before dispatching ANY representative, call `readTurn1(turn1PathFor(buildId, + stateDir), testRunId)` and fold the result into the prompt using this exact mapping + — distinct coordinator inputs (`agents/ai-tfa-coordinator.md`), never + interchangeable: `PENDING` → `resume: {threadId, turnId}`; `NEEDS_INFO` → + `turn1_result: {threadId, asks}`; no registry entry with the CSV row already + `resolved` → skip the dispatch, use the CSV row's result directly. A swapped field + is silently wrong, not rejected. +- **`workflows/rca-batch.mjs`** — **opt-in** (Claude Code, when the Workflow runtime is + available). Keeps coordinator output out of the orchestrator's context and gives + `resumeFromRunId` resumability + a progress UI. Runs fewer agents at once than direct + dispatch, so choose it when orchestrator context is the constraint (very large + builds) or you want the UI/resumability — not for throughput. +- **Sequential harness `lib/loop.mjs`** (`runRcaLoop`) — hosts without the Workflow + runtime and without Agent-tool fan-out, one test at a time. Same contract, same + no-prompt rule. + +Subagents/coordinators return compact `RCA_OUTPUT` blocks, never transcripts. A +coordinator that dies becomes a recorded `failed` row — one stuck test never +sinks the batch (partial-first). No path ever prompts the user (the gate is +closed). + +**Coordinator prompts MUST carry `pluginRoot` and use it to fully qualify every +reference-doc / lib path.** A coordinator is dispatched fresh with no guarantee +about its cwd. Every dispatch prompt must state `pluginRoot=<absolute path>` up +front and every reference-doc pointer must be `pluginRoot`-qualified — never a +bare `references/<file>.md`. + +**Coordinator prompts MUST also point at the API reference instead of letting +the coordinator re-derive it.** State plainly in the dispatch prompt: "Function +signatures for `lib/*.mjs` are documented at +`<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/references/api.md` — read it once if a signature is +needed; do not `grep`/`Read`/`cat` the `lib/` source to re-derive a signature +already documented there." + +**Coordinator prompts MUST name every connector-shaped skill on the manifest.** +Each dispatch prompt lists, per capability, the resolved connector skill from +Gate Part A — e.g. _"Use `<resolved-github-skill>` for every +product_code / deploy / ci ask. Use `<resolved-infra-skill>` for every infra +ask."_ Omitting a manifest-listed connector lets the coordinator infer repos +from workspace `git remote` or cwd, landing wrong PR attributions. + +**Hand coordinators the knowledge itself, never a path to it.** When the profile +records `knowledge` entries, put the relevant part's text **verbatim** in the dispatch +prompt. Not the path: a coordinator reading the whole artifact reads the machinery this +excludes, and it is a prompt-following agent. Withhold any part that asserts a verdict +("signature X is always environment") from a **sibling** dispatch — a sibling's +confirmation has to stay its own, which Step 5 and the coordinator's Principle 0 already +require. If a part contradicts a rule of ours, ours applies and the coordinator says so. + +**Coordinator prompts MUST carry a customer-supplied PR list, and any override.** +Whatever Step 0 read out of the invocation goes in every dispatch — representative and +sibling alike — as `suppliedPrs` plus the pinned values, stated as *the customer named +these at invocation*. Two reasons it cannot be left implicit: `pre_seed` carries only the +representative's own result (`lib/signature.mjs`), so a sibling learns intake from nowhere +else; and the coordinator's `INCOMPLETE` rule sends it digging to the turn cap unless it +knows the enumeration was supplied and is therefore exhausted. Naming the evidence file +is not a substitute — a coordinator that reads `prsInWindow` there cannot tell a supplied +set from a searched one, and the two mean different things about whether to keep looking. + +**Coordinator prompts MUST also name the Step 4 evidence file.** Every +dispatch prompt (representative and sibling alike) includes the absolute +`evidenceFilePath` from Step 4 with the instruction: _"Read `<path>` (via the +Read tool) before making any live github/infra/logs gather call. It's a +pre-fetch, not a hard dependency — a repo/workload it doesn't name, or marks +with a `gap`, is a genuine gap: fall back to the capability manifest above +exactly as if no file existed."_ For a sibling, add: _"The file's data about +your OWN test's workload is real evidence, not inheritance — reading it is +fine. What must stay independent is the CONFIRMATION judgment: never adopt the +representative's verdict just because the file already has the answer in +it."_ A dispatch prompt that omits this path forces its coordinator back into +a full independent sweep — exactly the redundancy Step 4 exists to remove. + +**The file is read-write, not just read-only.** When a coordinator has to +gather live (a genuine gap), tell it to write the result back — +`contributeCodeEvidence`/`contributeLogsEvidence` (`lib/evidence-file.mjs`), +passing its own `testRunId` as `writerId` — before finishing, not just answer +TFA and move on. A representative's deep dive (a full diff, a downstream +trace, a PR the pre-fetch never named) then benefits its own siblings and any +other cluster sharing the same repo/workload, instead of every one of them +re-running the same live search. This is already baked into +`agents/ai-tfa-coordinator.md`'s Operating Principle 0 for any dispatch of +that agent type — no need to repeat the mechanics in the prompt, just don't +omit `evidenceFilePath` (above), since write-back has nothing to write to +without it. + +**Pre-seed the MCP cache with the queries you just ran.** Step 4's log sweeps +are MCP calls, and a coordinator will often want the same ones. Deposit each +result under the key it would compute — `mcpCacheKey(tool, args)` then +`cachePut(toolCacheDirFor(buildId), key, {…, writerId: "orchestrator"}, nowMs)` +from `lib/tool-cache.mjs` — storing the DIGEST, not the raw rows. + +Store the same digest you put in the evidence file; the two are complementary +(the file is read wholesale at turn 1, the cache answers a specific repeat +query later). + +**Also hand every dispatch the tool cache.** Include the plugin root in each +dispatch prompt so coordinators can invoke `bin/cached-exec.mjs` / +`bin/cached-mcp.mjs`, and tell them to pass their own `testRunId` as +`writerId`. The cache lives at `<tmpdir>/bstack-rca/rca-toolcache.<buildId>/`, +one file per call key, shared by shell and MCP alike. + +**Tell every coordinator where its scratch goes and that it owns the cleanup** +(`agents/ai-tfa-coordinator.md` § Scratch goes in your own directory). Pass the +plugin root so it can call `scratchDirFor(buildId, itsOwnTestRunId)` from +`lib/state-dir.mjs`: keyed per agent, so parallel coordinators cannot collide, and +under the state tree rather than in the customer's repo. + +Each agent then deletes what **it** created, by name, before finishing. Never a glob +and never a directory sweep — this plugin does not delete files it did not create +(`54d5bb0` removed `pruneStateDir` for that reason), so only the agent that wrote a +path can safely remove it. You cannot do it for them. + +Apply both to yourself: your Step 4 pre-fetch staging is the same kind of residue, +and you have a `writerId` too. + +One real run left 28 files and 572 KB in a customer's repo root, several of them +overwriting each other because parallel agents picked the same short names. + +Run `node bin/cached-exec.mjs <buildId> --stats` at the end and **report the +numbers in the finish message.** In that same run this was skipped, so the cache had +16 entries and no hit rate anybody could see — a saving nobody can measure is one +nobody will defend. + +**Concurrency is handled by layout, not by locking.** Base +(`rca-evidence.<buildId>.json`) has exactly one writer — this orchestrator, in +Step 4. Every coordinator writes only its own shard under +`rca-evidence.<buildId>.contrib/<testRunId>.json`. `readEvidenceFile` folds +base + all shards into one view, applying shards in sorted order, with real +evidence taking precedence over a recorded `gap`. + +**Application bugs need a culprit PR.** Whenever a test's RCA classifies as +PRODUCT_BUG / application bug, the coordinator MUST hunt the culprit PR via the +github connector (deploy timeline vs last-pass window, changed paths vs failure +signature — `<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/references/github-evidence.md`) and feed the PR link(s) to TFA in +the turn message so the dashboard RCA's `related_prs` populates. An +application-bug RCA with no GitHub PR link is **incomplete**: keep digging until +the turn cap; if still none, the turn must explicitly state "no culprit PR +identified after <what was searched>" and the CSV row records the gap. + +## Step 6 — finish: glimpse + dashboard report (NO local report) + +This plugin **never renders or writes a local RCA report, and never surfaces RCA +detail in Claude.** The in-Claude output is a two-line completion notice plus the +link — that is all. When every row is terminal: + +1. Print a one-line **completion summary** by counting the CSV's terminal + states: `RCA analysis complete — build <id>` + `<N> tests · <R> resolved · + <P> pending · <F> failed`. **Nothing per-test.** +2. Call **`triggerRcaReport(buildUuid=<build id>, force=true)`** — **always pass + `force=true`; never `force=false` in any case.** Forcing regenerates the + release-readiness report from the RCAs completed so far, so the report is + produced for this run's actual analysis even when only a subset of tests + reached terminal RCA — instead of returning a stale/empty cached report or + blocking on a bulk re-trigger of every test's RCA. +3.

It is +the only surface the plugin owns that a human reads, and the per-ask decision to apply a +part is made after the gate where nothing can be asked, so this line is its entire audit +trail. `RCA_OUTPUT` carries which part each coordinator used; this aggregates them. + +**Do NOT print** root causes, culprit/related PRs, cluster breakdowns, per-test +analysis, confidence rationales, or a per-test table — root_cause, related_prs, +suspect_signals and the like are for the CSV + the dashboard ONLY.

That file owns the turn order and the +question shapes; this file owns **what to ask about**, per +capability: what has to be *bounded* before a read can be scoped, what **verified** +means, and the shape of a read that proves it. + +A generic question ("what's your logging setup?") gets a generic answer and bounds +nothing.

Concrete products appear **only** in these tables, at least three + alternatives per table, so no single one reads as the default. **No product name + appears in any generic rule, any heading, any "verified means" sentence, or any + standalone example** — and every table ends with its no-match escape. +3. **Verified means** — the one sentence that decides whether a connector is + written or a gap is recorded. +4. **What nothing downstream reads** — the levels not to ask for. + +`github` is the exception to the neutrality rule: it is mandatory and there are +exactly two supported routes, so it is concrete throughout. + +## Two hard rules + +**Ask only for levels the customer's stack actually has.** A process manager on +hosts has no namespace; a single-repo team has no monorepo subpath; a +forge-native CI has no separate project id. Asking for a level that does not exist +tells the customer you do not understand their setup, and the answer you get back +will be an invented one that fails at first use. + +**Never ask a question whose answer nothing downstream reads.** Every part of every +question names its consumer — the routed ask, the manifest field, or the culprit-PR +hunt that eats it. If you cannot name the consumer, cut the question. Each entry +below names its consumers under *what nothing downstream reads*. + +## Where a bound comes from before you ask + +Every entry below states the levels a read needs. It does not say where the answer +comes from, and the cheapest source is the one easiest to walk past: **the build's +own metadata.** Its name, branch, tags, environment label and CI URL are already in +hand from the insights read at T1, and they describe *this* run rather than the +customer's setup in general. + +> **Before asking a human for a level, and before listing a live control plane for +> it, check whether the build's metadata already names it.** An environment or +> tenant label on a build is frequently the literal name of the grouping its reads +> have to be scoped to. + +This matters most where a product-named grouping and a per-run one both exist and +both answer to the product's name. Searching a control plane for the product's name +finds the shared one; only the metadata says which one served this build. Picking +the wrong one reads as success — an authorised read returning the wrong workload's +evidence — which the empty-read rule below cannot catch, because the read was not +empty. + +Getting this from a human instead is worse than slow: a level they supply from +memory is the same guess with a confirmation attached. + +## The no-match escape + +Every table below is a closed list of stack shapes, and a closed list of shapes is +the same failure as the closed list of vendor names this design deleted — one turn +more abstract. So each table ends with the same escape, and it is not optional: + +> **If the customer's stack matches no row, derive the bounds from their own +> vocabulary and omit any level they lack — never map them onto the nearest row.** + +Mapping onto the nearest row is how a team gets asked for a "namespace" they do not +have, or a "cluster" that is one box. + +## The empty-read rule (stated once, applies to every capability) + +**Zero rows from a log, metrics, CI or runtime query in a quiet window is the +normal healthy case during an RCA.** Most windows this plugin reads are minutes +long and most services are quiet in them. + +> **Verification asks only whether the read was AUTHORISED. Zero rows inside the +> window is a warning on the connector, never a gap.** + +Record it as a verified connector — `verifiedBy: {count: 0, note: "<what the window +was>"}`; a count of 0 is a decidable claim and the runnable predicate accepts it — +plus a line in the digest so a human can see it. Getting this wrong makes the run +declare a capability unavailable to the BrowserStack agent that it actually had +access to, and the RCA then silently omits evidence it could have gathered.

Role is asked, never guessed: a flat repo list +forces the "if there's exactly one other repo it must be the automation repo" +guess, and that guess attributes failures to the wrong codebase. + +Two routes, and only two: a **GitHub MCP server** in this session, or the **`gh` +CLI** authenticated for the org.

The consumers are the +culprit-PR hunt (`<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/references/github-evidence.md`) and +Part B's intake resolution — nothing else. + +## `ci` + +**What bounds a pipeline read.** Three things: the **project** the pipeline belongs +to, the **pipeline identity** within it, and — the one teams forget — **how a build +maps to a run**. Without the mapping you can list runs and still not know which one +produced this build, which makes every run of the pipeline equally suspect. + +| If CI is… | project | pipeline identity | build→run mapping | +|---|---|---|---| +| native to the git forge (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI) | the repo | the workflow file or job name | the head commit sha | +| a standalone server (Jenkins, TeamCity) | the folder or view | the job path | the run's recorded build tag or parameter | +| a hosted pipeline service (CircleCI, Buildkite, Azure Pipelines) | the org + project slug | the pipeline name | the branch plus the run's start time window | +| the same system that runs the tests | — (there is no second system) | — | it *is* the build; use the forge fallback below | + +**If the customer's stack matches no row, derive the bounds from their own +vocabulary and omit any level they lack — never map them onto the nearest row.** + +**Verified means** one run of the **named pipeline** came back carrying the field +that maps it to a build. A run listing with no mapping field is not verification: it +proves the pipeline exists and leaves every subsequent `ci` ask unanswerable. + +**Store the mapping, never the resolved run.** A run number pinned into the stored call +keeps answering long after it stops being this build's run, so the gate's replay returns +success while the evidence belongs to another build — see `interview.md` § Authoring a +procedure for why a passing probe is the dangerous shape here. + +**Two legitimate sources for the run itself, in this order:** a run the customer pinned at +invocation, then the build's own metadata (`SKILL.md` § Part B, precedence). The pinned one +wins — a customer naming a run is stating which one to read, and losing that to +`ci_build_url` is the wrong-run read this rule exists to prevent, arrived at from the other +direction. + +Many teams have no separate CI system, and that is a correct answer — neither a +connector nor a gap. `<pluginRoot>/config/rca.config.json` routes a `ci` ask to the +`github` capability as `fallbackCapability`, resolved once in `buildManifest`, so +the fallback keeps serving `ci` evidence without declaring a phantom gap. + +**So record nothing for `ci` in that case.** Do not invent a connector to avoid a +gap, and do not write a gap either: a gap says the evidence will not be gathered, +and it will be. `missingCapabilities` treats a capability whose fallback has a +connector as covered, so the profile still counts as provisioned and the gate will +not offer to resume a finished interview. Writing a gap here would make the digest +report "ci unavailable" about a connector that works. + +**What nothing downstream reads:** build queues, agent pools, artifact retention, +per-step timings. The consumer is a routed `ci` ask +(`<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/references/evidence-routing.md`). + +## `logs` + +**What bounds a log read.** Three things: the **store or dataset** the lines are +in, the **field that carries the service or workload identity**, and the **time +bound**. The identity field is the level most often skipped and the one that makes +the difference between a scoped read and a raw tail — and this plugin never reads a +raw tail (`<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/references/github-evidence.md` § Field-filtering). + +| If the log store is… | store / dataset | identity field | time bound | +|---|---|---|---| +| an index-based search store (Elasticsearch, OpenSearch) | the index or index pattern | the mapped field holding the service name | an absolute from/to on the timestamp field | +| a query-language store (Loki, CloudWatch Logs Insights, BigQuery) | the log group, stream set, or table | the label or column selected on | the query's own range clause | +| an event platform (Datadog Logs, Honeycomb, Splunk) | the dataset or index | the tag or attribute | the query's relative window | +| files on hosts, collected by an agent | the path glob | the filename or a prefix in the line | the file's rotation window | + +**If the customer's stack matches no row, derive the bounds from their own +vocabulary and omit any level they lack — never map them onto the nearest row.** + +**Verified means** a query against the **named dataset**, filtered on the **named +identity field** for the workload in play, was authorised and returned a result set +— rows, or an empty result set for the window. See § The empty-read rule: an empty +window here is a warning, and a service that logs nothing in a quiet six-hour +window is ordinary. + +**Never** verify by reading the store's health endpoint, its index list, or its +version. Those prove the store is up; they say nothing about whether this +credential can read this dataset. + +**What nothing downstream reads:** retention policy, ingest volume, parser +configuration, the full field mapping. The consumers are routed `kibana`/log asks — +and note that TFA owns **test** logs and the client never gathers them +(`<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/references/evidence-routing.md`); this capability is the customer's +**application** logs only. + +## `infra` + +**What bounds a runtime read.** Three things: the *control plane* you are talking +to, the *logical grouping* inside it, and the *workload* itself. Ask for whichever +of the three the pre-read did not already answer, and never ask for a level the +customer's runtime does not have. + +| If the runtime is… | control plane | grouping | workload | +|---|---|---|---| +| a container orchestrator (Kubernetes, OpenShift) | cluster / context | namespace | deployment or pod selector | +| a managed container service (ECS, Cloud Run) | account + region | cluster | service / task family | +| a scheduler (Nomad, Mesos) | region / datacentre | job namespace | job + task group | +| a process manager on hosts (systemd, PM2, Supervisor) | the host or host group | — | process name | +| a serverless platform (Lambda, Cloud Functions) | account + region | app | function | + +**If the customer's stack matches no row, derive the bounds from their own +vocabulary and omit any level they lack — never map them onto the nearest row.** + +**Verified means** the named grouping answered *for the named workload* — a listing +that includes it, or a log line from it. A version banner from the CLI is not +verification: it proves the binary exists and says nothing about whether this +credential can see that workload. + +An authorised listing that comes back empty (the workload is scaled to zero, the +window is quiet) is a **warning on the connector, not a gap** — § The empty-read +rule. + +**What nothing downstream reads:** node inventory, resource quotas, the full +manifest, anything about workloads other than the ones these tests exercise.

Recording the honest attempt is + correct — it tells the next run what was tried. + +### `howToQuery` is documentation. The plugin never executes it. + +**Say it plainly: nothing in this plugin runs `howToQuery`.** It records **which** +call to make. You read it and make your own tool call, at call time, under the +user's own permission layer, re-authoring and re-quoting from the structured +fields. + +That structural choice is what removes the hazard, and it is not sufficient on its +own. This repo's documented way for an agent to make exactly this kind of read is a +**shell string** — `node <pluginRoot>/bin/cached-exec.mjs <buildId> <writerId> +'<command>'` — and that binary runs `execSync(cmd, {shell: true})`. So: + +> A stored `howToQuery` may inform **which** call to make. It is **never** +> reconstructed verbatim into a string passed to a shell-invoking wrapper. You +> re-author and re-quote the call at call time, from the structured fields. + +Joining `args[]` into that wrapper re-opens the hazard one hop away: a PR editing +`.rca-context.json` — a file reviewers skim as config — would then change what +commands the agent runs. This is also why `args` must be **argv, one element per +argument**: a joined command string is refused by the schema, which makes any such +reconstruction deliberate rather than accidental. The durable fix, an argv-only +interface on `<pluginRoot>/bin/cached-exec.mjs`, is a recommended follow-up and is not in place. + +## `gaps` and `warnings` + +A gap is `{capability, classification}` plus optional `note` and `target`. +**`classification` is mandatory** — an unclassified gap tells the next run nothing +and it is refused. `target` is what makes a gap *scoped*: one unreachable repo out +of four is a gap on that target, and the capability stays valid for the rest. +`credential-under-scoped-for-target` is a distinct classification on purpose, so +someone whose credential is narrower than the team's recorded scope is never led +into rewriting the team's scope to fit their machine. + +Gaps are **append-only and idempotent**: recording the same gap twice does not +double it, or the digest would grow on every run. + +``` +node <pluginRoot>/bin/rca-context.mjs record-gap --from <the invocation directory> \ + --capability <c> --classification <k> [--note <one line>] [--target <t>] --profile <label> +``` + +`warnings` is written **only** as part of a full `write` document — there is no +`record-warning` verb.

It never blocks a run | + +No other capability substitutes for `github` in `runnable`: without the code and the +merged PRs there is no culprit PR, which is the run's entire deliverable. + +**Runnable is not finished, and conflating them locks a customer in.** GitHub is +asked first, so someone who abandons the interview right after it has a *runnable* +profile — first contact never fires again, and every later run quietly declares the +rest unavailable. That is what `provisioned` exists to catch: a profile that is +runnable but not provisioned spends the gate's single question on *finish setup now, +or run GitHub-only and record the rest as gaps?*, and choosing GitHub-only **writes +those gaps** so the question is never asked again +(`<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/templates/gate-summary.md` § The one question). + +There is deliberately **no `complete` flag** and no `blockedOn`: both are derivable +from the two predicates, and a stored flag can disagree with the file it describes. +`complete` and `resumeAt` are refused keys, so nobody can add them back by writing +one. + +**Staleness** is a date comparison at selection against the injected day +(`context.staleAfterDays`, default 30). It never blocks and never asks by itself — +it downgrades a digest line from `verified` to `stale`. Repair is lazy, at first +use: GitHub is rechecked at the gate for free because Step 4's PR-window fetch *is* +the recheck, and every optional connector is verified by the first routed ask that +uses it — that one call is simultaneously the gather and the verification. A +capability no ask routes to costs nothing. + +## Profile selection + +`select` resolves one profile, deterministically, **with no regex anywhere**. First +hit wins: + +1. **`--profile <label>`** → exact key match. A near miss **refuses**, listing the + labels. No fuzzy match: a typo resolving to a neighbouring label is a + wrong-context run with no signal at all. An explicit label outranks a build name + that matches a different profile (`matchedBy: "requested"`). +2. **A project name FILTERS the candidates**, before anything is scored: a profile + survives if its `projectMatch` matches, or if it declares none (no opinion). + Project is the coarser bound and it goes first because two projects routinely run + suites with near-identical names — selecting on the name alone would pick one of + them by coin toss and run against the other's repos. Nothing surviving **refuses** + (`code: "no-matching-project"`). + + **An unknown project does not refuse.** Insights can be unavailable, and a + declared `projectMatch` that cannot be evaluated passes rather than eliminating — + the same degradation as an absent build name. The result then carries + `projectUnchecked: true`, the gate prints it, and the reader knows the profile on + screen was chosen without the constraint its author added. A silently unapplied + constraint is how a build gets attributed to the wrong project's repos while every + refusal in this list stays quiet. +3. **A build name** → surviving candidates are those with a matching `buildMatch` + (`matchedBy: "build-name"`). +4. **Several candidates** → most literal characters wins, and the loser comes back + as `alsoMatched` so the gate can print it — that is how a bad `buildMatch` gets + fixed instead of quietly mis-routing every night. **An exact tie refuses**, + naming both labels. Never alphabetical, never first-key-in-file: JSON key order + is a hidden ordering a reformat silently changes. +5. **Zero candidates with a known build name** → **refuse**, unless exactly one + profile declares no `buildMatch` at all, which has no opinion and is used + (`matchedBy: "sole-profile"`). `defaultProfile` is deliberately not consulted, and + neither is "it is the only profile in the file": a name matching nothing means the + file does not describe this build. + + This used to adopt the sole profile whatever it declared, and the refusal one line + down already argued against it. A live run took a profile bound to one suite, applied + it to a differently-named suite's build, and reported the setup as valid — the other + suite's four product repos and base branches included.

It carries no +content hash, no lifecycle state, no tombstone. So on a later run the agent re-reads the +part and **judges** whether it still says what it was recorded for; the file cannot tell +it that the text changed. + +That is a deliberate trade and the cost is real: drift is not *provably* visible, only +noticeable. A hash would make "this changed" decidable, and a state field would let a +rename be distinguished from a deletion. Both were designed and both were left out, +because they are machinery in service of a capability with no evidence behind it yet — +and this project has repeatedly shipped that kind of mechanism and then deleted it. + +Adding a digest later is one field and one comparison. Removing a state machine nobody +needed is not. If re-judgement proves too weak in practice, that is the first thing to +add — and the absence is enforced by the closed key set, so adding it is a deliberate +act rather than a drift. + +**Re-read rules, which are the agent's:** if the part is gone, drop it and say so — the +artifact may still be present with only the part unresolvable, which is the signal a +human needs. If it now reads as machinery or as a scope claim, do not use it, whatever it +said when it was recorded.

Never to discover existence. + +## The pre-read budget, as a number + +Against the customer's worktree, at T2c, once: + +- **one** glob batch, then **at most 8** read/exec calls; +- all of them in a **single parallel message**, plus **one** follow-up batch of the + same size when a hit is worth following; +- **no file read past 200 lines**; +- **no dependency graph**, no lockfile parse, no per-service walk. + +Nine calls, and at most nine more once. This is a number because the prose version +of the same instruction failed twice. Budget exhausted with a capability still +unbounded is not a failure — it is what T5 and T6 are for. + +**Spend it on file reads, not directory listings.** A listing tells you a path +exists; it never tells you a repo name, a branch, a grouping or a service. A +pre-read that spends every call on listing, finding and remote-reading has learned +the shape of the tree and nothing in it, and arrives at T3 with only git remotes to +offer — which produces a wrong answer the customer must correct rather than an +absent one they get asked about. **If your calls returned only paths, the pre-read +has not started.** + +**Following a hit is the point.** A glob or search that surfaces a promising +directory or file name has told you where to read, not what is there — so open +something in it. This rule used to read *"no recursion — you do not glob what a +first glob revealed"*, and that is precisely the instruction that stops a pre-read +one call short of the file holding the answer. The bound is the one follow-up batch +above: follow a hit that plausibly bounds a capability, and do not then follow what +*it* reveals. + +## Question mechanics + +Every call is one `AskUserQuestion` with this shape: + +```json +{"questions": [ + {"question": "<one sentence, names the downstream consumer>", + "header": "<≤12 chars>", + "multiSelect": false, + "options": [{"label": "<the answer itself>", "description": "<where it came from>"}, + {"label": "<the other answer>", "description": "<where THAT came from>"}]} +]} +``` + +Two options in the schematic because two is the **minimum**, not an illustration of +a batch. Every shape below shows at least two for the same reason. + +Constraints the shapes below are designed to: + +- **At most 4 parts per call, at most 4 options per part.** A fifth of either is + not rendered, so a batched turn that would need five parts merges two instead of + overflowing into a second call — a second call spends a second question. +- **At least 2 options per part, and the tool enforces it.** A part carrying one + option is **rejected**, the whole call fails, and the customer sees nothing — so a + batch mixing one settled part with open ones loses the open ones too. Two live runs + lost a turn to exactly this. + + A part you can give only one answer to is not a question, it is a finding. **State + it and move on**, and keep the question for something undecided. Never pad to two: + an invented alternative you would not act on asks the customer to ratify a decision + you already made, and if they choose it you are committed to something worse than + what you had. +- **Options are answers, not prompts.** `label` is the value the agent will use; + `description` names its provenance (`from git remote`, `named in + .github/workflows/deploy.yml`, `MCP tool in this session`). +- The **free-form escape is always available** and is where every value the + pre-read could not enumerate arrives. Never add an option whose label is + "type it below". +- `multiSelect: true` **only** where more than one answer is genuinely usable: + T3's repo parts and T5's capability picker. Everywhere else a second selection + means the question was wrong. +- **Never offer an option you cannot act on** and never a level the customer's + stack does not have (`capabilities.md` § Two hard rules). + +## Credentials — every field you author, not just `credential` + +There is **no credential-detection code, by product-owner decision.** Four +generations of pattern-matching for "is this string a secret?" broke in four +different ways, because that decision is a judgement and judgement in a pattern +breaks. The controls are the schema (no field a value fits in) and this prose. Both +are load-bearing; neither is a scanner. + +1. **Never write a value a human typed.** Ask for the environment-variable + **NAME** and record `credential: {kind: "env-var", name: "<NAME>"}`. When the + tool authenticates from its own ambient config or a provider session, record + `{kind: "provider-managed"}` and ask for nothing. +2. **A pasted credential is refused inline and never echoed.** Do not quote it, do + not put it in a summary, do not put it in a tool call. Say: + > That value is now in this session's transcript, so treat it as disclosed: + > revoke and reissue it, then tell me the environment-variable name you put the + > new one in. I will record the name, never the value. +3. **The rule covers every field you author, not just `credential`.** Plenty of + log, metrics and webhook tools authenticate by query string or path token + (`?api_key=…`), so *the literal call shape that worked* carries the secret — + which means an honest interview, following only rule 1, still commits a + credential to a shared repo. When authoring **`howToQuery.args`**, **`scope`** + or **`verifiedBy.note`**, substitute a `${ENV_VAR_NAME}` placeholder for any + secret-bearing element and record the variable name in `credential`. Never the + literal, in any of the three. +4. **Raw provider output never reaches the file.** A failure is reduced to its gap + class and its next action; the bytes stay in your context. `verifiedBy` is a + structured claim, never captured output — `stdout`, `raw` and `body` are refused + keys, so there is nowhere to put them anyway. + +--- + +## T0 — greeting + +No question, and **no tool output before it.** `<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/SKILL.md` +§ Step 0a holds the copy and the reason this ordering is a rule rather than a +preference. Say it, then name what you can actually see in this session (the MCP +servers, the skills) so the customer can tell the interview is short, and say once +that **GitHub is the only thing that can stop setup.** + +One message, three parts, in this order: what BrowserStack already has · what only +they can supply · GitHub is the one thing that can stop this. The concrete +what-I-can-see list belongs after those three, not woven through them — it is +evidence that the interview is short, not part of the split itself. + +Read the capability sequence before you plan the turns — it is config, not a list +in this file: + +``` +node <pluginRoot>/bin/rca-context.mjs capabilities +``` + +### T0 in adopt-or-extend mode + +Entered when `select` refused with `no-matching-profile` or `no-matching-project` +(`SKILL.md` § Step 0b). A verified setup is already on disk and the only open question +is whether it covers this build, so **do not give the first-contact greeting** — it +would tell someone who has already done the setup that BrowserStack needs to learn +where their half lives. + +Say instead, in one short message: what is on file, what it binds, that this build's +name is not in it, and that their connectors look reusable. Then one call: + +```json +{"questions": [{ + "question": "<label> is set up and verified, but it binds <patterns> — this build is <name>. How should I handle it?", + "header": "Profile", "multiSelect": false, + "options": [ + {"label": "New profile for this suite", "description": "reuses <label>'s verified connectors; I ask only what differs — repos, subpaths, branches"}, + {"label": "Add this build to <label>", "description": "one pattern added; every later run of this suite resolves with no question"}, + {"label": "Use <label> for this run only", "description": "nothing is written; the next run asks again"} + ] +}]} +``` + +**Which one is right is theirs to decide, and the difference is real.** A sibling suite +in the same environment often exercises different repos and different subpaths, so +adding a pattern to a profile whose repos are wrong buys a clean resolution and a wrong +attribution. Say that in the option descriptions rather than steering. + +Then continue at **T2** — the artifact pass and the pre-read still run, because which +repos a *different* suite exercises is exactly what reading can answer. Skip T1 and T1b: +the build id came from the invocation and the insights were read at Step 0 to select. + +## T1 — build id + +Skip entirely if the invocation args already carry one. + +Otherwise: **ask in the greeting's own text, not with `AskUserQuestion`.** A build id +is free text with no alternatives, and a part needs two genuine options or the call is +refused (§ Question mechanics). One sentence, folded into T0's message: + +> Which build am I analysing? A build id, or a link to it on the dashboard. + +**Two or more candidate ids** — several in the args, several links in this session — +is the one case that *is* a question, and then it is one call with one option per +candidate. + +The build id is the one genuinely load-bearing field: it drives `listTestIds`, and +the **name and project** it resolves to at T1b drive profile selection on every later +run. + +## T1b — fetch the build's insights + +**No question, and nothing else happens first.** With the id in hand, read the +build's own metadata immediately: + +``` +fetchBuildInsights(buildId=<id>) +``` + +**Already read at Step 0 when the invocation carried the id** — that is where it has +to happen, because selection needs the build's name and project (`SKILL.md` § Step 0). +Do not call it twice. This turn exists for the other path: T1 just supplied an id that +the invocation did not, so nothing has been fetched yet. + +This is the cheapest scope material in the whole interview and the only source that +describes *this run* rather than the customer's setup in general. Every later turn is +worse without it, so it is not something to get around to — it is the first tool call +of the interview. + +What it answers, so you can stop asking for it: + +| Field | What it bounds | +|---|---| +| the build **name** | which suite ran, and `buildMatch` for every later run's profile selection | +| `branch`, and any branch-carrying **tag** | T3's base/build branch pair, per role — a build commonly names more than one | +| an environment or tenant **tag** | frequently the literal name of the grouping `infra`, `logs` and `metrics` reads must be scoped to (§ Evidence hierarchy, tier 2) | +| the **CI run URL** | the CI system and the job path — `ci`'s project and pipeline identity, without asking | +| the **dashboard URL** | the project these results land in | +| failure categories, error overview, flake counts | what the artifact pass at T2 judges relevance *against* | + +**A bound read here becomes a T5 candidate.** Naming a capability's project and +pipeline, or its grouping, and then not offering that capability is how a build ends +up declaring as a gap the one thing it told you where to find. + +Read them as **candidate bounds, not verified ones**: a tag naming a grouping is a +name, and `capabilities.md` § Verified means still requires the read that proves the +credential can see it. What the metadata buys is not skipping verification — it is +not spending a question, and not searching a live control plane for a name the build +already gave you. + +**If it is unavailable or errors, say so once and continue.** Every later turn +degrades to asking, which is the old behaviour and not a failure. What is not +acceptable is proceeding as though it had been read: the tiers below are ordered on +the assumption this one was tried. + +## T2 — session inventory and the artifact pass + +No question, and no repo reading yet. Enumerate what this session has and read what +the customer has already written down, in **one parallel batch**: + +1. **MCP servers and their tools** — already in your tool list. Nothing to run. +2. **CLIs** established by tier 1 of § Provenance. +3. **What the customer has written down for their agents.** At each of four + scopes — `.`, `..`, `../..`, `~` — because an artifact can be project-scoped, + workspace-scoped or personal and only the first is obvious: + + ``` + .claude/skills/*/SKILL.md + .claude/agents/*.md + .claude/knowledge/**/*.md + ``` + + Three directories rather than one, because those are the locations **the harness + itself defines**. This closes that set; it does not open a list — and the + difference matters, because a customer's triage knowledge sits in `knowledge/` or + in an agent definition at least as readily as in a skill, and a proving run walked + past a populated `knowledge/` directory that a skills-only glob could not see. + + **Open each hit.** Read the frontmatter, any capability declaration, and enough of + the body to judge it — a listing of these directories is not this step, it is the + step before it. **Absence is the normal case and is never a warning.** + + These four scopes reach up and sideways. The customer's own repos are *downward*, + and that is T2c's job — an artifact found there is a candidate on exactly the same + terms as one found here. + +**Some artifacts are not connectors at all, and those are the interesting ones.** An +artifact may carry a product area's own triage knowledge rather than a way to reach a +capability — decision heuristics, a taxonomy of suites, what a signature means for that +product. Judge those the same way and use only the parts that apply: + +- **Take** what informs judgement: heuristics, taxonomies, what a failure means. +- **Never take** machinery: another flow's phase ordering, its trigger conditions, its + output or digest contract, its own subagent model. Two orchestrations produce two + answers and only one reaches the dashboard. +- **Never take anything that bounds scope.** An excerpt naming a repo, branch, path, + service or component **is scope**, however it is phrased — "failures here usually come + from <a service>" reads as triage and functions as a redirect. Scope is already + answered by verified profile fields that outrank any artifact, and overriding them + lands as a wrong PR on the dashboard. +- Record each part you will use with `record-knowledge`, naming the artifact, where you + read it, and which part. Omit `--capability` when the knowledge is about the product + as a whole. + +**PR-hunting excerpts split three ways, and only one of the three is knowledge.** This +is worth stating because culprit-PR attribution is the run's deliverable, so it is the +subject a customer's artifacts most often cover — and the three cases have different +homes: + +- **How to REACH the PRs** — the repo set, the base branches, the call shape, an + alternate route such as a forge MCP server instead of a CLI — is a **connector**, not + knowledge. It goes in `connectors.github` (`scope` / `howToQuery`) with + `source: {kind: "skill", path}`, and it gets a live read before it counts. Filing it + as knowledge would hand a coordinator a call shape as prose and change nothing about + what actually runs. +- **Which PRs COUNT as candidates** — an exclusion, a ranking, a surface-to-code + mapping, a "this class of change never causes that class of failure" rule — is + judgement, and it **is** knowledge. Record it with `--capability github`. +- **An ARTIFACT that replaces the definition of the candidate window** is machinery and + is refused. The window is + `<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/references/github-evidence.md`'s: merged in + `(baselineRef, build commit]` and touching the failing path. An artifact that narrows + or ranks inside that window is additive; one that says candidates come from somewhere + else entirely replaces it, and two definitions of "candidate PR" produce two answers + where only one reaches the dashboard. + + **What decides this is who is speaking, not what is said.** An artifact is refused + because nobody chose it for this run: it was found on disk, it may predate the code it + describes, and it competes silently with a definition the run already has. **The person + invoking the run is the opposite of all three** — they are speaking now, about this + build, on the record. A PR list supplied at invocation therefore *does* replace the + enumeration, it is tagged `given` on the gate screen, and `SKILL.md` § Step 0 and + § Step 4 own that path. + + The carve-out is exactly that narrow. It admits a value a human typed for this run; it + does not admit a file, a recalled convention, or an inference. Widening it to "anything + may replace the window" gives back the two-answers problem this rule exists to stop. + +**State the cost when a recorded route is not the CLI.** `<pluginRoot>/bin/prefetch-prs.mjs` +fetches the PR window once for every coordinator to share, and it speaks the forge CLI +only. A connector recorded on another route is honoured — you make the call yourself +from `howToQuery` — but the shared pre-fetch is bypassed, so each coordinator pays for +its own read. Say so at T8 rather than leaving someone to find it in a slow run. + +**Account for every artifact you opened.** For each one: the parts recorded, or one +line saying nothing applied and why. This is a rule because the pass has no other +outcome — reading is silent, judging is silent, and "I looked and took nothing" is +indistinguishable from "I did not look" when both produce no record and no sentence. + +That is not hypothetical. A live run opened three of a team's own artifacts — a +regression-RCA procedure, a culprit-PR finder, a build-triage engine — and recorded +nothing from any of them, in a run whose whole deliverable is culprit-PR attribution. +The culprit-PR artifact carried an explicit attribution heuristic. Everything else in +those files was machinery, so *most* of the judgement was right; what was missing was +any obligation to land the part that was not. + +**A heavily-machinery artifact is the normal case, not a reason to take nothing from +it.** These files are written to orchestrate — phases, triggers, output contracts, +sub-agent rules — and all of that is correctly refused. The takeable part is usually +one or two sentences buried in it: what a failure shape implies, which surface owns +which kind of change, what the team has learned reads as a false positive. Read for +that, and expect to find it in a file that is 90% things you must not take. + +The digest at T8 lists what was recorded, so this is visible rather than trusted. + +**This is why T1b comes first.** Judging "does this apply to THIS build" needs the +build's metadata; with only an artifact's own description to go on, every artifact +looks plausibly relevant and none can be ruled out. What you have here is +build-level: name, branch, tags, failure categories, error overview. What you do NOT +have is per-test signatures; those arrive after the gate. So judge **candidates** +here and decide **application** per ask later, when the signature is in front of you. + +**No question is asked before this pass** — T1 is the sole exception, and only when +the invocation carried no build id. Asking first and reading afterwards is how a +customer gets asked for something they had already written down. + +**A skill is not a hint; it is a procedure.** An MCP tool or a CLI tells you a +capability is reachable. A connector-shaped skill additionally carries the repo map, +the branch conventions and the query conventions its author wrote down — which is +exactly the knowledge that makes attribution accurate and that no probe can +recover. So when a skill declares a capability: + +- take its scope as **pre-filled**, and confirm rather than ask (T5/T6); +- still **verify it with a live read** — a declaration is not evidence, and treating + one as proof is the defect that made the old gate trust scope probes it never ran; +- record `source: {kind: "skill", path: "<the SKILL.md you read>"}` on that + connector, so a later run can re-read it and notice it changed. Without the path + the record says "a skill informed this" and gives no way back to it. + + **Write the path relative to the context file** when the skill sits inside that + directory's tree — `.claude/skills/logs/SKILL.md`. That is the portable case: a + teammate who clones the repo gets the same skill at the same place. + + A skill found at `../.claude/skills/…` or `~/.claude/skills/…` is **machine-local** + by construction — the first assumes the same workspace layout, the second is one + person's home. Record it as you read it anyway: re-verification happens on the + machine that will use it, so a local path is genuinely useful there. Just say at + T8 that the capability is backed by a local skill, so nobody is surprised when a + teammate is asked about it. An unresolvable path is not an error — it degrades to + a targeted re-ask for that one capability, exactly like a missing tool. + +For everything else, record `source: {kind: "mcp" | "cli" | "api"}` — no path, since +`via` already names it. + +There is deliberately **no script for this.** Globbing known directories and judging +whether what is in them bears on your capability is reading and judgement, which is +yours; a discovery module would only be a list of places and patterns that goes +stale. The glob above is short and fixed because those directories are a harness +convention. The judgement about what is *in* them is never a list. + +The repo pre-read is T2c, one turn later, once § Provenance's one refusal — this +plugin's own worktree — has been ruled out. Everything else reachable from the +invocation directory is fair game and is read before any repo question is asked. + +## T2b — resolve the write target + +No question. `.rca-context.json` lands in **the directory you were invoked in** — +not a repo chosen by lookup, and it need not be a git repo at all. The one refusal +is the plugin's own checkout: the documented install flow leaves cwd there, and a +context written there stages the customer's scope into the plugin's repository +(`code: "plugin-root-destination"`, and `plugin-root-context` when one is already +sitting there). Run: + +``` +node <pluginRoot>/bin/rca-context.mjs find --from <a candidate customer worktree> +``` + +Outcomes: a path (a teammate already committed one — you are not in first contact, +re-read `<pluginRoot>/skills/rca-build/SKILL.md` § Step 0), `no-context` +(expected), or `parse-error` (stop; write nothing — same section). + +If **no** customer worktree is reachable from here, the local clone path becomes an +additional part of T3. Discovering that at write time means the customer answered +eight questions for nothing. + +## T2c — repo pre-read + +No question. One parallel batch, inside the budget above, against every customer +worktree reachable from the invocation directory — that directory when it is one, +and the checkouts sitting inside it. **Never this plugin's own worktree** (§ +Provenance). + +**This runs before T3, because T3's options are what you read here.** It used to run +after, on the reasoning that no customer worktree existed yet. That holds only when +cwd *is* the plugin clone; whenever the customer is invoked in a directory holding +their checkouts it is false, and the guard for the first situation switched reading +off in the second — leaving T3 able to offer nothing but git remotes. + +What you are looking for is bounds, not inventory: the levels `capabilities.md` says +each capability needs, and the names in tier 3 of the evidence hierarchy. A suite's +own test-selection, environment or deploy config frequently names the **product** +repos and the branch it runs against — which is T3's question, answered without +asking it. An automation repo's remote is the one thing a git listing does give you, +and it is the one part of T3 you least need help with. + +Record which artifact each name came from: T3, T5 and T6 must be able to cite it, +and an option you cannot cite is not a candidate (§ Provenance). + +**Domain artifacts found here go through T2's pass, not a different one.** A repo's +own runbooks, agent prompts and `.claude/` directory are the same kind of thing as +what T2 globbed upward, and they are the likelier place for a product area's triage +knowledge to live. Judge them on the same terms — take heuristics, never machinery, +never anything that bounds scope — and record the parts with `record-knowledge`. + +Also record `subpaths`: the directories inside the product repo these tests +actually exercise. If you cannot bound them, write `subpaths: null` explicitly — it +is how the culprit-PR hunt learns to print *"path overlap is repo-wide; attribution +may over-match"* instead of over-attributing silently. + +**If T3's answer names a tree you did not read** — a repo not checked out here, or a +clone path supplied at part 4 — that is what the budget's one follow-up batch is +for. Spend it before T4. + +## T3 — GitHub: repos, branches, and the clone path + +One call, or **none**. What T2c read becomes the pre-selected options, and **every +option's description names the artifact it came from** — that is what makes it +checkable, and a candidate you cannot cite is not one. + +**When the pre-read settled a part, drop that part.** This used to say a conclusive +pre-read "degrades to a single confirm, which is still one call", and that shape does +not exist: a part with one option is refused by the tool (§ Question mechanics), so +the whole call is lost — including the parts that *were* open. Say what you resolved +and what named it, then carry on. If every part is settled, T3 asks nothing and the +interview is one question shorter, which is the best outcome this turn has. + +An option whose only provenance is a git remote is the weakest kind, and a question +built entirely from remotes means the pre-read found nothing — say so in the +descriptions rather than presenting a directory listing as a finding. + +```json +{"questions": [ + {"question": "Which repo holds the product code these tests exercise? Culprit-PR attribution searches it.", + "header": "Product", "multiSelect": true, + "options": [{"label": "acme/api", "description": "named in <the file that named it>, under ./web-e2e"}, + {"label": "acme/api-worker", "description": "named in the same file"}]}, + {"question": "Which branch do merged PRs land on, and which branch did this build run against?", + "header": "Branches", "multiSelect": false, + "options": [{"label": "release/24.9 → release/24.9", "description": "named in <the file that named the repos>, beside them"}, + {"label": "main → main", "description": "default branch of acme/api; nothing read here named another"}]}, + {"question": "Which directory should I set up?

That is the dropped-part rule above, and a live run lost a whole call by +sending it as a one-option part instead. + +The clone-path part is present **only** when T2b resolved nothing, and only when more +than one directory is a genuine candidate; with exactly one, state it. The base/build +branch pair is deliberately one part with a `base → build` label so all four fit the +render cap; when the clone-path part is absent, split them into two parts and ask each +plainly. + +Every part names its downstream consumer, because a question whose answer nothing +reads is cut (`capabilities.md` § Two hard rules). + +## T4 — verify GitHub immediately + +Two reads, in one parallel batch, against the values T3 just supplied: a repo read +that returns the default branch, and a merged-PR listing on the named base branch. +See `capabilities.md` § github for what counts. `gh auth status` and a version +banner are **route checks, not verification** — they prove a binary exists and say +nothing about whether this credential can see that repo. + +**On pass, write the document immediately.** T4 is the first moment at which the +repos, the branches and one verified connector are all known, and the CLI's +per-connector verbs read a context that already exists: + +``` +node <pluginRoot>/bin/rca-context.mjs write --from <the directory being set up> --file <doc.json> +``` + +Print the path, and say whether that directory is a git repo: inside one, tell them +to commit the file so a teammate inherits it; outside one, say plainly that it is +local to that directory. From here on every capability is persisted the moment it +verifies, so abandonment costs the customer nothing and there is no partial state to +model. + +`homeRepo` is optional and read by nothing — record it if you like, as a line for a +human opening the file.

A candidate you +cannot cite an artifact for is not a candidate — see § Provenance. + +**A capability the build's own metadata identified is a candidate, and one of the +strongest.** T1b's fields are bounds: the CI run URL names the CI system and the job +path, the dashboard URL names the project. Those are cited to the build itself, which +outranks anything found by looking around — so they belong in this list before +anything the pre-read guessed at. A live run recorded `ci` as a gap while its own gap +note said the CI run URL was known from the insights: the bound was produced, then +dropped, and the customer was never offered the capability the build had already +located for them. **If T1b named a bound for a capability, that capability appears +here** — or the gap note has to say why it was not worth offering, and "it was known +but not offered" is not a reason. + +Every unselected capability gets a recorded gap at T8, which is what makes the +profile `provisioned` and stops the gate re-offering setup forever. + +## T6 — per capability: author, verify, record + +One call for **all** selected capabilities, one part each, asking only for the +bounds `capabilities.md` says that capability needs and the pre-read did not +already answer: + +```json +{"questions": [ + {"question": "Which <grouping> and which <workload> should I read for this service?

Sending it as a one-option part fails the whole call, taking the +capabilities that genuinely needed asking down with it. + +More than four selected capabilities: merge the parts that share an identifier +(logs and metrics usually share the service name) rather than spending a second +call. **Never ask for a level the customer's stack does not have** — a process +manager has no namespace, and asking for one tells the customer you do not +understand their setup. + +Then, per capability, in one parallel batch: run the proving read, and persist +immediately. + +- **Verified** → `upsert-connector`.

That is the `checkBy: "<tool> --version"` defect one + level up: the probe passes and proves nothing about the thing being asked. + + Record the **mapping** in `scope` — which field of the build's metadata names the run + — and leave a `<placeholder>` in `args` where the resolved value goes, the same way + `${ENV_VAR_NAME}` stands in for a credential. Then the value comes from T1b's insights + at use time, which is where it is actually known. +- **`verifiedBy.note` describes the verification, not the build.** "run 351 answered on + 2026-08-25" is a note.

Authoring rules and the selection order are in +`context-file.md` § Profile selection; get the pattern wrong and every future run +either refuses or runs the wrong environment's repos. + +**Record `projectMatch` alongside it, from the project the insights named.** Project +is the coarser bound and it is checked first: two projects routinely run suites with +near-identical names, and a `buildMatch` that matches both selects on a coin toss. +Write it even when the customer has one project — it costs nothing now and it is the +field nobody thinks to add later, when a second project is exactly what made +selection ambiguous. + +Both patterns come from **T1b's insights**, not from the customer. They are already +exact; asking someone to retype a build name introduces a typo that fails silently as +a non-match on the next run. What the question above is for is the **label** and how +wide the pattern should be — that is a judgement about their environments, and it is +the only part they can answer better than the metadata can. + +## T8 — confirm and write + +One call, over a one-screen digest.

When T5's option cap forced the +free-form entry out (four real candidates fill the render budget), the open +"anything else do you have?" question has not been asked at all — and that is the +one question that catches a stack nobody wrote down. Offer it here, by name. + +**T8 is a bounded loop, and this is the one place the budget can grow.** A +correction or a gap-closing round re-runs the relevant proving read, re-prints the +digest, and re-asks *this* call — which IS another `AskUserQuestion`, so pretending +otherwise is how the ceiling gets exceeded in practice. A real run spent three of +its five questions here. + +So: **T8 is entered at most three times.** On the third entry the extension option +is gone and only `Write it` / `Correct a field` / `Discard` remain, so it terminates +by construction rather than by the agent's judgement.

Still arithmetic, still checkable — which is the property that matters, and +the reason the ceiling is a number at all. + +A customer who wants to keep going past that has a better route than more questions +in one sitting: the profile is already on disk and every capability persists the +moment it verifies, so re-running `/rca-build` resumes at the first capability with +neither a connector nor a gap.
