fix(agentic-engineering): define classifier output contract by devantler · Pull Request #222 · devantler-tech/agent-plugins

devantler · 2026-09-19T10:58:00Z

Why

The canonical portfolio surveyor delegates current-head CI classification to the bundled helper but does not tell guarded callers how to interpret stdout without appending the denied ; echo "EXIT=$?" idiom. Consumer evidence found that gap in 10 of 87 recent survey dispatches.

What

define empty output as the sole green result;
couple the complete eight-field TSV predicate to the red verdict in one table row;
route malformed, mixed, diagnostic, or otherwise partial output to QUERY-UNKNOWN;
pin the contract with a focused agent-definition test;
bump agentic-engineering from 5.1.4 to 5.1.5 and refresh its desired-state digest.

Proof

RED: portfolio-surveyor-agent.test.sh rejected the canonical role before the output contract existed;
GREEN: the same test passes after the role change;
classifier helper suite: 25 passed, 0 failed;
manifest validation, plugin version-bump gate, digest check, ShellCheck, and git diff --check pass;
all bundled skills validate with the repository-pinned skills-ref revision.

Fixes #221

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The portfolio surveyor now specifies strict handling for default-branch classifier output. Empty output represents no red runs, complete eight-field TSV rows represent red runs, and malformed or mixed output maps to QUERY-UNKNOWN. Contract tests verify these rules. Four plugin manifests are updated to version 5.1.5, and the desired-state hash is updated for the revised role definition.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 0eea2

The documented behavior is consistent, but a future regression could make nonempty output green without being caught by the test.

CodeRabbit explicitly declined this updated-head review round as rate limited. The native-status fix, RED→GREEN contract test, mutation proof, and exact-head CI are green, so the ordered provider loop advances to Codex.

Ready for maintainer evaluation at bca79d8e146ac27e5c9f23270f48322229a2a49b.

40/40 exact-head checks pass; signature verified.
All review threads are resolved; CodeRabbit was rate-limited on the final round and the ordered loop advanced with an explicit no-gate record.
Codex reviewed this exact head and found no major issues.
RED→GREEN pins the native-status gate, empty-output green case, complete eight-field TSV row, and malformed/mixed fail-closed path.
Mutation checks fail when either the native status-0 conjunct or the numeric run_id constraint is removed.
