Live verification (opencode 1.17.8 + grok-build-0.1, funded key) showed the Grok
runtime was loading INERT, three ways:
1. The provider override `provider.xai.npm=@ai-sdk/openai` failed model
resolution (ProviderModelNotFoundError) — opencode can't resolve that package
from its module path. Worse, ANY custom `provider.xai` block (even just
options) breaks plugin-tool registration. opencode's BUILT-IN xai provider
drives grok-build-0.1 with working tool-calls, so emit NO provider block; the
key + base reach it via XAI_API_KEY / XAI_BASE_URL env (provider.options.apiKey
alone does NOT authenticate).
2. Plugins referenced by absolute path in the config `plugin:` array never
registered their hooks/tools. opencode 1.17.8 only registers from the plugin
AUTO-DISCOVERY dir (~/.config/opencode/plugin/). Bake all plugins there.
3. Plugins must use a NAMED export, not `export default`.
Changes:
- opencode_config: no `provider` block, no `plugin` array; drop the dead
XaiTarget + timeout machinery; build_opencode_config now takes a model string.
- GrokProvider / orchestrator interactive env: inject XAI_API_KEY + XAI_BASE_URL
(drop the now-unused OPENAI_*).
- secret-scrub / budget-feed / secretary-tools / intake-tools: named exports;
baked into /home/agent/.config/opencode/plugin/ (drop the EXTRA_PLUGINS env).
- agent-grok* Dockerfiles: plugin dir + agent ownership; drop the unneeded
@ai-sdk/openai global install.
Verified live end-to-end: grok-build-0.1 calls read_company_state AND
submit_directive through secretary-tools.js and the backend receives both with
the agent token; a tool.execute.before guard fires; built-in tool-calls work.
Targeted gate green (ruff/mypy/xenon + opencode_config/providers/interactive
tests; node --check the plugins).
_enforce_grok_cost_budget killed + evicted a container directly. For the
interactive roles (intake/secretary) that left the panel SSE relay open with no
close sentinel, so the chat froze with no explanation. Add
PrompterLiveRegistry.close_by_agent (push a final error event, then close every
session bound to that agent) and call it from the cost-cap watchdog when the
killed agent is the intake or secretary, so the panel reports the chat ended on
the cost cap instead of hanging.
If `opencode serve` died after the session opened, every subsequent turn failed
with an opaque httpx connection error while the container lingered. send() now
detects the exited subprocess (returncode set) and yields a clear error chunk +
turn_end so the panel shows a real "session ended — start a new chat" message;
the idle watchdog / a human reap then tears the container down.
_spawn_intake_container / _spawn_secretary_container built the AgentInstance by
hand and never recorded an agent_spawn_sessions row, so the reap finalizer had
no usage_session_id to look up — every interactive session (Claude or Grok)
finalized at 0 tokens / $0 in the rollups. Record the session (task_id=None) and
pin its id on the instance, mirroring _launch_spawn; the GROK path reads
opencode.db by this id, the Claude path reads the transcript.
Also correct the grok_intake_main docstring (M7): it claimed the serve process
was "gateway-wired" with an "MCP gateway", but interactive intake mounts no
gateway — its only tool is propose_draft, registered by the intake-tools.js
plugin.
secret-scrub.js (the opencode bash guard) was missing three rules the Claude
bash-guard hook has, leaving a Grok dev able to read secrets the Claude path
blocks:
- source / dot-source of a credential-bearing file (source .env, . ./.env,
.bashrc / .git-credentials / .netrc / /proc/*/environ).
- interpreter one-liner reading a credential file
(python -c "open('.env')", node -e "readFileSync('.git-credentials')").
- git-ops check now runs on a SKELETONIZED command (heredoc bodies + echo/printf
args stripped) so a README/heredoc that merely documents `git push` is no
longer mistaken for invoking it — a false-positive parity fix from the Claude
guard.
Functionally smoke-tested with node against the real plugin (git push denied;
echo/heredoc "git push" allowed; source/interpreter cred reads denied; normal
commands allowed). Live opencode firing stays flagged in the file header.
A one-shot grok run that hit an xAI 429 exited without a terminal verb; the
dispatcher then re-spawned the same task every tick (429 -> exit -> respawn), a
container/token/cost loop with no living agent to call i_am_blocked.
- entrypoint: detect a rate-limit signature in the run output and exit 75
(EX_TEMPFAIL); a rate-limited task is NOT substituted — it must be retried.
- _handle_stopped_container: on a grok exit 75, park the provider via the
rate-limit tracker (retry_after window) instead of crash-retrying, and don't
count it as a crash. The existing probe-resume loop clears the park after the
window (unknown-provider time-expiry fallback) and the task is retried.
- spawn_agent: a grok-only, fail-open guard skips the launch while the provider
is parked, so the dispatcher no-ops instead of looping. The Claude path is
untouched.
Targeted gate green (ruff/mypy/xenon + new rate-limit tests; bash -n on the
entrypoint).
Grok wrote ONE global permission block, so a Grok pr_reviewer (or qa / PM /
auditor) ran with edit=allow + bash=allow on untrusted PR content. Now the
permissions are derived per role, mirroring orchestrator._get_role_permissions
on the Claude path:
- edit — allow only roles that write code (role_config.allows_write:
developer / documenter); everyone else edit=deny.
- bash — allow only roles that legitimately run a shell (developer /
documenter / cell_pm / main_pm); the read-only reviewers (qa / pr_reviewer /
auditor) and the board get bash=deny. secret-scrub still guards the rest.
- external_directory — only the pr_reviewer reads scratch outside its cwd (the
/tmp diff); delivery roles get deny.
One-shot roles resolve these in GrokProvider._append_grok_env; the interactive
intake/secretary set edit=deny + bash=deny in the orchestrator (intake keeps
external-dir reads for sibling product repos, the secretary does not). The
Claude path is untouched — the permission env is a GROK-only contract.
Targeted gate green (ruff/mypy/xenon + provider + interactive-spawn tests).
The prompter prompt tells the model to call propose_draft when the spec is
ready, but on Grok that tool didn't exist — so no draft chunk, no panel draft
card, and the human couldn't launch a task from a Grok intake chat.
- intake-tools.js: opencode plugin registering propose_draft via Hooks.tool;
the execute() only ACKs — the driver (OpencodeServeSession.normalize ->
_is_propose_draft -> _draft_from_tool_input) intercepts the tool CALL and
emits the `draft` chunk the panel renders.
- agent-grok-prompter.Dockerfile: bake the plugin, scoped to this image via
ROBOCO_OPENCODE_EXTRA_PLUGINS (delivery roles never draft).
- test: a propose_draft tool part normalizes to a draft chunk (not a tool_use).
The live tool-call -> draft-card path is flagged UNVERIFIED-LIVE for the NAS.
The Grok Secretary could chat but had zero directive tools — it could not read
company state or act on a CEO command, so it was non-functional. This is the
integration blocker.
- secretary-tools.js: opencode plugin registering read_company_state /
read_task / submit_directive via the Hooks.tool API, each calling
/api/secretary/* with the container's HMAC agent token — a direct port of the
Claude Secretary's SDK tools (secretary_driver.build_secretary_options). The
high-impact directive kinds stay gated server-side (queued for CEO confirm).
- agent-grok-secretary.Dockerfile: bake the plugin and scope it to this image
via ROBOCO_OPENCODE_EXTRA_PLUGINS, so only the Secretary carries CEO authority.
- grok_secretary_main: correct the docstring that falsely claimed the tools
reached the API "through the mounted MCP gateway" (there is no gateway mount;
they're an opencode plugin).
- secretary.md: name the three tools and restate the confirm-before-act gate.
Verified locally that opencode loads a file-path plugin importing
@opencode-ai/plugin and resolves the package; the live model-tool-call +
backend round-trip is flagged UNVERIFIED-LIVE for the NAS.
The keystone of the Grok parity work (CEO's "take Claude as baseline, create
what's missing" call): the one-shot Grok container now starts the same SDK
server the Claude path runs, so the per-verb circuit breaker (the flow/do MCP
servers already POST /verb/attempted to it), the per-session budget/loop
counters, the terminal-verb tracking, and the SessionEnd post-mortem all work
on Grok instead of being silently absent.
- entrypoint: launch roboco.agent_sdk.server (bare venv python, not `uv run`
which would re-sync the drifted clone lock and stall), wait for /health,
reset counters; run opencode WITHOUT exec so the script regains control to
run the post-mortem and the silent-exit substitute after the run returns.
- budget-feed.js: opencode plugin that gates on /budget/status in
tool.execute.before (halt/loop deny — the only place to stop a runaway
one-shot run; opencode has no PostToolUse-deny) and records the executed
tool + args-hash in tool.execute.after. Fail-open; bare-verb normalization
for MCP-namespaced terminal verbs.
- silent-exit substitute: on a graceful exit with no terminal verb the
entrypoint posts /terminal/force_substitute so the task isn't left stuck
claimed/in_progress (Stop-hook parity at the boundary).
- opencode_config: wire budget-feed into the plugin array; add
ROBOCO_OPENCODE_EXTRA_PLUGINS so per-image role tool plugins load scoped to
one role; read the per-role ROBOCO_GROK_EDIT_PERMISSION.
Targeted gate green (ruff/mypy/xenon + opencode_config tests; node --check on
the plugins; bash -n on the entrypoint).
CI complexity gate (make quality -> xenon --max-absolute B) flagged
_maybe_kill_wedged_grok at rank C — too many guard branches in one method.
Extract the kill-candidate decision into _wedged_grok_slug(task, last_heartbeat)
-> slug | None (recent-heartbeat / no-owner / not-ACTIVE / not-GROK all yield
None); _maybe_kill_wedged_grok now just kills + evicts the returned slug.
Behaviour is identical (same guards, same order) — the reaper watchdog tests
pass unchanged. xenon now passes on the full package; ruff + mypy clean.
Live NAS run showed the Grok pr-reviewer claim the review and fetch the diff,
then write it to /tmp and FAIL to read it back: opencode auto-denied
"external_directory (/tmp/*)" — its file tools refuse paths outside the project
cwd, and in headless serve/run mode an "ask" permission auto-rejects (no human).
Add permission.external_directory (default "allow", env
ROBOCO_GROK_EXTERNAL_DIR_PERMISSION) to the generated opencode.json. The
container is the sandbox and secret-scrub still blocks credential-file reads, so
allowing in-container external-dir reads is safe and unblocks legitimate scratch
use (e.g. the pr-reviewer grepping a large diff in /tmp).
Verified live against grok-build-0.1: with external_directory:"allow" the Read
tool reads a file outside cwd and returns its contents (no auto-reject); the
plain-string form is accepted by opencode 1.17.8.
Needs a rebuild of roboco-agent-grok + a pr-reviewer re-run on the NAS to confirm.
With the prompt-injection guard now recreated for Grok (prior commit), the
"Grok lacks the injection guard / prefer Claude for delivery roles" warning is
no longer true, so remove it:
- Panel routing card: replace the amber "prefer Claude / not safe" caveat with
a neutral one-liner — Grok agents run on opencode; the command/secret-exfil
guard, the prompt-injection guard, and the cost cap all apply.
- docs/self/architecture/llm-provider-security.md: prompt-injection row flips to
"yes" for Grok; intro + routing recommendation updated to "effective security
parity, any agent (incl. delivery roles) can run on Grok"; the only remaining
unported hook is the non-security stop-guard.
- opencode_config docstring: the remaining gap is now just the stop-guard
(budget + injection are covered).
Panel tsc + eslint clean.
The injection guard is RoboCo's own hook (user-prompt-hook.sh), not a runtime
built-in, so it can be recreated at our input boundary regardless of runtime —
opencode's lack of a blocking pre-prompt hook is irrelevant.
- prompt_guard.detect_injection: the deny patterns ported to reusable Python.
- IntakeDriver._run_turn scans every interactive turn before sending it to the
model and denies a match as an error chunk. Covers BOTH Grok (opencode) and
the Claude SDK intake (which runs with setting_sources=[] and so never loaded
the bash hook — it was unguarded too).
- The one-shot grok entrypoint scans ROBOCO_INITIAL_PROMPT and refuses a
poisoned task prompt (parity with the Claude UserPromptSubmit deny).
- Broadened the pattern (Python + the bash hook, kept in sync) to catch the
multi-qualifier canonical phrasing "ignore all previous instructions", which
the single-qualifier original missed — without false-positiving on
"ignore the linting rules" (an intermediate non-qualifier word breaks it).
So Grok now has the command/secret-exfil guard (secret-scrub), the cost cap,
AND the injection guard. Verified: 94 agent_sdk tests pass; bash + Python agree
on detect/miss cases.
Running the built grok-prompter container surfaced a second EACCES the
mechanism analysis missed: bind-mounting the opencode store at
~/.local/share/opencode makes docker create the intermediate ~/.local AS ROOT,
so the non-root agent user then cannot create its sibling ~/.local/state and
opencode dies at boot. Pre-create the ~/.local tree agent-owned in the image so
the mount leaves the parents writable. Complements the orchestrator 0777
host-source pre-create (which covers the bind source on Linux).
Verified live: with this fix the container starts clean, opencode serve opens
the session, a POST /turn produces a real grok reply, and all chunks
(thinking/text/turn_end) reach the relay endpoint.
Found by actually running opencode serve locally (the path was doc-verified but
never executed). Three fixes:
1. EACCES on the opencode store mount (the live intake crash): on Linux docker
auto-creates a missing bind source as root:root, so the non-root agent user
could not mkdir/write in /home/agent/.local/share/opencode and opencode died
at boot. _ensure_opencode_data_dir pre-creates the per-agent dir 0777 before
the mount (one-shot via the _GrokHost seam, interactive in both spawns).
2. Silent blank reply on a model error: opencode reports a turn failure in
info.error with parts=[], NOT as a part — verified live (a bad xAI key
returns info.error APIError). send() / normalize_opencode_message now surface
it as an "error" StreamChunk so a failed turn is never blank (the original
intake bug class). Confirmed live: the error now renders.
3. Reasoning variant on the serve path: the live OpenAPI shows the message body
accepts a "variant" field (it is NOT CLI-only, as the docs implied), so the
pin is unblocked. send() passes ROBOCO_GROK_VARIANT as the per-turn variant;
the orchestrator sets it per-role (_reasoning_effort_for) for interactive
Grok, the same lever as the one-shot --variant.
opencode serve startup, POST /session, session-id extraction, the part-type
mapping (text/reasoning/tool), and the error path are all validated against a
live opencode 1.17.8. A real successful grok reply still needs a funded key.
Grok agents run on opencode, not Claude Code, so they do NOT have full
guardrail parity — claiming otherwise would be false. Document it truthfully
and keep them usable rather than blocking them.
- Panel routing card: an amber caveat shown in Grok/Mix mode — command/
secret-exfil guard + cost cap apply to Grok, but the prompt-injection guard
does NOT (opencode cannot block a turn); Anthropic/Ollama/Self-Hosted run
through Claude Code with the full guard set; prefer those for agents that
ingest untrusted or cross-agent content; Grok is safe for trusted work.
- docs/self/architecture/llm-provider-security.md: the reference — the two
runtimes, which provider uses which, the per-guardrail parity matrix, why
the injection/stop gaps exist (opencode hooks are observe-only), and the
routing recommendation (delivery roles handling untrusted content → a
Claude-Code-runtime provider).
Panel tsc + eslint clean.
Claude Code's per-agent token-budget hook fires against the SDK :9000 server;
opencode exposes NO usage/budget hook to a plugin (confirmed against its plugin
docs), so the budget kill-switch can't be a plugin/sidecar — the orchestrator
enforces it instead.
_enforce_grok_cost_budget runs each dispatch tick: for every ACTIVE GROK
container it reads cumulative cost from the opencode store (the Phase-2 reader)
and kills + evicts it past ROBOCO_GROK_MAX_COST_USD (0 = off), after which the
reaper releases the freed task. This also catches a runaway loop that keeps
firing verbs (so it evades the idle watchdog) but still burns cost.
Covers the budget/runaway-burn slice of guardrail parity. The remaining Claude
hooks (prompt-injection PRE-gate, stop-guard terminal-verb) have no blocking
opencode equivalent — opencode's message/stop hooks are observe-only — and the
interactive reasoning-variant has no opencode.json/serve knob (CLI-flag only);
both are pinned for a live probe rather than shipped as a guess.
The CI mypy scope (roboco/ tests/) flagged test-only typing issues my per-file
runs missed: direct method assignment (orch._remove_container = AsyncMock())
trips [method-assign], and a module-level dict[str,str] is invariant against
the dict[str, str|None] the run-spec expects.
- Use monkeypatch.setattr for _remove_container in the watchdog tests.
- Annotate the shared _HOSTS as dict[str, str | None].
Production code unchanged; mypy roboco/ tests/ is green.
- Panel: add intake-1 (prompter) and secretary-1 to the mix-mode per-agent
routing list so an operator can assign Grok (or Claude) to the interactive
roles from the UI; assigning a Grok model routes them to the opencode-serve
image. tsc + eslint clean.
- opencode_config: correct the now-stale parity note — bash-guard is ported
(secret-scrub.js) and usage/cost is captured (opencode store); the remaining
gap is the budget/loop/stop/prompt-injection hooks, which need a sidecar
plugin (open decision), with ROBOCO_GROK_BASH_PERMISSION as the interim gate.
Wire the GROK interactive path the in-place way (matching how the interactive
roles already choose ANTHROPIC_* per route), so a GROK route launches the
Grok-native opencode-serve image instead of the Claude SDK-driver image:
- _spawn_intake_container / _spawn_secretary_container pick the
grok-prompter / grok-secretary image (ensuring the base→grok→interactive
build chain) when the route is GROK, and stamp provider_type on the spec +
AgentConfig so finalize routes usage to the opencode store.
- _build_intake_run_cmd / _build_secretary_run_cmd inject OPENAI_* + the
opencode store mount + system-prompt env for GROK via a shared
_append_interactive_provider_env, keeping ANTHROPIC_* for every other
provider. The intake's minimal mounts (no gateway MCP) are preserved, so
Grok intake matches the Claude intake's tool surface (the spec).
- Add a per-agent opencode store mount to the interactive host paths so
interactive Grok usage/cost is captured like the one-shot path.
Removes the interim Phase-0 routing guard (the real path supersedes it) and
retires the unused AgentProvider.spawn_interactive/InteractiveSpawnSpec seam —
the interactive roles have a bespoke assembly that the one-shot provider
surface doesn't fit, so the fork lives in their own builders.
UNVERIFIED-LIVE: end-to-end intake/secretary chat on Grok needs the stack up +
opencode serve confirmed against grok-build-0.1.
Builds the Grok analogue of the Claude intake/secretary live-session runtime,
satisfying the same IntakeSession seam so the existing IntakeDriver loop,
message source, relay, and StreamChunk panel contract are reused unchanged:
- OpencodeServeSession: a held-open `opencode serve` session (context persists
across turns) where each human turn is one synchronous POST /session/:id/
message; normalize_opencode_message maps the reply parts to text/thinking/
tool_use/draft/turn_end chunks (draft via a propose_draft tool part or the
fenced roboco-draft fallback). Doc-verified against opencode's server API.
- grok_intake_main / grok_secretary_main: container entrypoints mirroring the
Claude mains but yielding an OpencodeServeSession; they render opencode.json
(xAI provider + MCP + system prompt) first, then run the receiver + driver.
- roboco-agent-grok-prompter / -secretary images (FROM roboco-agent-grok) +
their builder services in all three compose files.
UNVERIFIED-LIVE: the opencode serve flow + exact Part schema + draft path need
a live run against grok-build-0.1 (the part mapping is defensive). The
orchestrator wiring that routes a GROK intake/secretary route to these images
is the next step (a design decision is open — see the handoff notes).
The AgentProvider ABC modelled only the one-shot lifecycle (spawn/stop/
health_check/remove), so the interactive intake/secretary roles could never
route through a provider. Add an opt-in interactive surface:
- supports_interactive class flag (default False).
- InteractiveSpawnSpec: the resolved AgentConfig + session id + role-specific
image + optional HMAC token — everything a provider needs without importing
orchestrator internals.
- spawn_interactive(spec): a non-abstract default that declines via
ProviderError, so every existing one-shot provider is unchanged.
Pure scaffolding — no provider opts in yet (GrokProvider flips the flag when
its interactive driver lands). Zero behavioural change.
A GROK agent runs opencode, not Claude Code: it has no SDK /usage/status
server and writes no Claude transcript, so _resolve_final_token_usage found
nothing and every Grok agent finalized at 0 tokens / $0 — the opencode_usage
reader existed but had no caller.
- Mount a per-agent opencode data dir ($DATA/opencode/<agent_id> →
/home/agent/.local/share/opencode) so opencode.db is captured, and mount the
same host dir into the orchestrator (/data/opencode) in all three compose
files so the finalizer can read it back — the opencode analogue of the
mounted Claude transcript.
- _resolve_final_token_usage branches on provider_type: GROK reads opencode.db
via opencode_usage (reasoning folded into output, billed at the output rate)
and skips the SDK/transcript path. A 0-token read logs a WARNING so a silent
mount failure isn't mistaken for a real zero-cost run.
- ROBOCO_OPENCODE_DATA_DIR overrides the in-orchestrator path for local runs.
intake (prompter) and secretary run a held-open chat session driven by the
Claude Agent SDK. GROK has no interactive runtime yet, and a GROK route for
those slugs would be spawned with the route creds injected as ANTHROPIC_*
against api.x.ai/v1 — the wrong protocol — producing a silent, empty reply
(the blank intake we observed).
Downgrade a GROK route for intake-1/secretary-1 to the Anthropic default with
a logged warning. The one-shot delivery roles route to GROK unchanged. This
guard is replaced by the real interactive fork once the opencode interactive
driver lands.
The heartbeat reaper deliberately skips a task whose assignee holds a live
ACTIVE container, so a Claude agent deep in a long edit/test cycle isn't
churned out from under live work. A wedged opencode container breaks that
assumption: it stays ACTIVE while firing no gateway verb, so its heartbeat
never advances and the live-instance skip would shield its task forever — the
exact way the Grok pr_reviewer parked in_progress.
Add a longer grok-idle kill threshold (ROBOCO_GROK_IDLE_KILL_SECONDS, default
900s, well past the stream chunk timeout). A GROK instance idle past it is
force-removed (its logs dumped to disk first) and evicted from the instance
registry, so the same reaper pass then releases the task. Only GROK runtimes
are eligible — a quiet Claude agent keeps the heartbeat-skip protection.
The Grok pr_reviewer wedged in_progress forever: opencode's default agent ran
with the subagent `task` tool enabled, spawned an Explore subagent on
grok-build-0.1 whose model call opened an SSE stream that went idle, and the
run hung with no timeout.
- Hard-disable opencode's subagent `task` tool in the generated opencode.json.
No RoboCo role uses opencode-internal subagents — work flows through the
gateway verbs — so removing the tool kills the hang trigger outright.
- Set provider.xai.options.timeout + chunkTimeout (operator-tunable via
ROBOCO_GROK_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MS / ROBOCO_GROK_CHUNK_TIMEOUT_MS) as the
defence-in-depth backstop; chunkTimeout aborts an idle stream.
- Bundle the permission + timeout + subagent knobs into an OpencodeGuards
dataclass (keeps the builder under the arg-count gate).
- Drop the dead ROBOCO_AGENT_TOOLS spawn env (it had no consumer); opencode
tool restriction lives in the rendered config now.
grok-build-0.1 reasons heavily by default and reasoning bills at the output
rate (a live "say ok" call emitted ~300 reasoning tokens, ~85% of its cost).
Confirmed live that opencode's `--variant minimal` cuts reasoning ~54%
(298 -> 136 tokens, same prompt).
GrokProvider now picks reasoning effort by role: code-quality roles (developer,
qa, pr_reviewer) keep full reasoning; coordination / docs / board roles
(cell_pm, main_pm, documenter, product_owner, head_marketing, auditor, prompter,
secretary) run "minimal". It's passed to opencode via the entrypoint's
`--variant`. Operators can force one effort for ALL grok agents with the
ROBOCO_GROK_REASONING_EFFORT env (minimal | high | max, or default/full).
Tests cover the role map, the env override, and the spawn env wiring.
The Routing-mode toggle had Anthropic / Ollama / Self-Hosted / Mix but no way
to route the whole org to Grok. Add it end to end:
- backend: apply_mode("grok") + _apply_grok (GLOBAL default -> grok-build-0.1) +
derive_mode "grok" detection; ApplyModeRequest/ModeResponse accept "grok".
- panel: a "Grok" routing-mode card (between Anthropic and Ollama, gated on the
xAI key) + flipToGrok; a Grok group in the per-agent mix dropdown +
catalogGrokOnly + a grok ProviderBadge variant; the mix-save key check and
the AI-routing description now cover Grok.
- tests: integration derive_mode/apply_mode "grok" cases (+ grok provider row
in the fixture).
Gated: ruff + mypy clean; panel typecheck + lint clean.
A live opencode run against api.x.ai/v1 surfaced three real bugs:
1. Provider package — grok-build-0.1 is driven via the OpenAI Responses API
(opencode calls model.responses()). @ai-sdk/openai-compatible is
chat/completions only and errors "responses is not a function". Switch the
generated opencode.json provider + the grok image to @ai-sdk/openai.
2. Headless hang — `opencode run` blocks after init without a TTY; close stdin
(`< /dev/null`) in the entrypoint so it proceeds to the model call.
3. Reasoning-token cost — grok-build-0.1 is a reasoning model; reasoning tokens
bill as output but opencode stores them in a separate column. cost_for_session
folds tokens_reasoning into output (else ~22x undercount).
Verified end-to-end against a real session row (input=6120, output=1,
reasoning=226, cache_read=1856): our pricing reproduces opencode's stored USD
cost ($0.0069452) exactly. Tests anchored to that real row.
Confirmed by inspecting a local opencode run: opencode persists per-session
usage in SQLite at ~/.local/share/opencode/opencode.db — the `session` table
carries cost + tokens_input/output/reasoning/cache_read/cache_write. xAI's
response usage object (prompt_tokens, completion_tokens,
prompt_tokens_details.cached_tokens, completion_tokens_details.reasoning_tokens)
maps directly onto those columns.
Add opencode_usage.read_session_usage / cost_for_session: read the opencode DB
and price the tokens via roboco.billing.pricing (our cost stays authoritative;
opencode's own `cost` column is kept for reference). Tested against a fixture DB
mirroring the real schema (single session, summed sessions, missing/empty DB).
Remaining wiring (for the live spawn): mount the opencode data dir on grok
spawn + call cost_for_session at reap to record the usage rollup.
- pricing.py: add grok-build-0.1 rates ($1/1M input, $0.20 cached, $2/1M
output), verified against xAI's published pricing. Grok is a priced
non-Anthropic model, so cost computes the moment usage is captured.
- secret-scrub.js: an opencode tool.execute.before plugin porting the
security-critical bash-guard deny rules (git network ops, credential-file
reads, /proc env, internal-host HTTP, roboco.* imports, ROBOCO_AGENT_ID
forgery, env dumps, destructive rm) to the opencode runtime — restoring the
guard the Claude Code hook can't provide there. Throwing denies the call
(confirmed by opencode's env-protection example). Wired into the generated
opencode.json plugin array + baked into the grok image.
Deny logic verified via node (9 deny + 5 allow cases). UNVALIDATED against a
live opencode runtime: confirm it fires in the live E2E spawn before a Grok
dev-agent touches a real repo; the bash permission is operator-tunable as a
second gate.
Cost CAPTURE (distinct from pricing) is intentionally NOT built yet: opencode's
plugin hooks expose model info but no token/usage object, so the capture path
is unconfirmed and needs the live spawn to settle.
CI's "Apply database migrations" failed with asyncpg
UnsafeNewEnumValueUsageError: alembic runs the whole upgrade in a single
transaction, so migration 039's INSERT used 'grok' in the same transaction
that 038 added it — which Postgres forbids. Splitting into two migration
files did not help (one transaction spans both). Wrap the ALTER TYPE ADD
VALUE in op.get_context().autocommit_block() so the value commits before 039
(and any later migration) uses it. Still renders in offline --sql, so the
enum-migration-parity test is unaffected.
Add roboco-agent-grok to the release workflow's image build/publish map so
registry deploys carry the Grok runtime image (parity with every other
agent image). Split from the feature commit because pushing a workflow
change requires a workflow-scoped token.
Complete the native Grok (xAI) path so grok-build-0.1 runs as a real
RoboCo agent, not just the provider seam.
- roboco-agent-grok image (docker/agent-grok.Dockerfile): FROM agent-base
+ opencode (the OpenAI-protocol runtime). One image serves every role;
role behaviour comes from the mounted manifest / mcp-config / system
prompt, exactly as on the Claude path.
- Entrypoint renders opencode.json at spawn from the GrokProvider env
contract + the mounted Claude Code mcp-config.json
(roboco.llm.providers.opencode_config): translates RoboCo's gateway
servers (roboco-flow / roboco-do / ...) into opencode's mcp block,
declares the xAI OpenAI-compatible provider + model, and wires
permissions + instructions. Pure, unit-tested translation.
- Orchestrator registers GrokProvider with the registry-qualified image
(_qualify_agent_image) so it resolves in local and registry deploys.
- Compose (both files + the registry compose) gain an agent-grok-image
builder service.
- Panel: a Grok (xAI) API key card on the AI Providers page, plus the
grok ModelProvider value.
KNOWN PARITY GAP (opencode runtime): the bash-guard PAT-scrub and the
transcript-based usage/cost capture are Claude Code hooks and do not
transfer to opencode. bash permission is operator-tunable
(ROBOCO_GROK_BASH_PERMISSION) so a deployment can fail closed until a
security/usage-parity opencode plugin lands. That plugin and live E2E
validation are the remaining work to finalize with xAI.
Add a roboco/llm/providers/ seam — an AgentProvider lifecycle ABC and a
ProviderRegistry keyed by ModelProvider — so the orchestrator can drive
agent backends other than Claude Code.
The first non-Claude backend is GrokProvider for xAI's grok-build-0.1.
xAI is OpenAI-compatible only (no Anthropic-Messages endpoint), so a Grok
agent runs an OpenAI-protocol runtime pointed at https://api.x.ai/v1
rather than the ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL injection the other providers use. It
reuses the orchestrator's existing mount/auth assembly, so it inherits the
same MCP gateway + tool-manifest wiring as every other agent by
construction, and passes its prompt via env (never an argv positional).
The change is purely additive: only GROK routes through the registry;
Anthropic / Ollama Cloud / self-hosted spawns run the existing
_spawn_container path unchanged.
Includes:
- ModelProvider.GROK (migration 038) + a seeded Grok provider row
(migration 039) + a grok-build-0.1 catalog entry
- GET/PUT /api/providers/grok-key to store the xAI key (Fernet-encrypted,
reusing the existing provider-key machinery)
- ClaudeCodeProvider reference adapter over the current spawn
- unit tests for the registry, GrokProvider (gateway wiring, no
ANTHROPIC_* leak, prompt-injection safety, failure paths) and routing
The dedicated roboco-agent-grok image and the exact OpenAI-protocol CLI
invocation are the remaining piece to finalise with xAI.
The Company Scorecard work (#212) added 6 test dependencies to
panel/package.json (vitest, @vitest/coverage-v8, jsdom, and three
@testing-library packages) without updating the lockfile, so every
--frozen-lockfile install (Docker panel-builder stage and CI) failed
with ERR_PNPM_OUTDATED_LOCKFILE. Regenerate the lockfile so it matches
package.json.
* [0c7a4732] feat(cockpit): add completed_30d and median_lead_time_hours to delivery summary (#207) (#210)
- Extend DeliverySummary schema with completed_30d: int = 0 and
median_lead_time_hours: float | None = None fields
- Add TaskService.get_delivery_stats_30d() that queries tasks completed
in the last 30 days and computes statistics.median of lead times
- Update CockpitService.summary() to source both new keys from
get_delivery_stats_30d() and include them in the delivery dict
- Update tests: mock new method in _patch(), assert new fields in
test_summary_aggregates, fix test_route_ok_for_ceo dict, add three
new unit tests for get_delivery_stats_30d (empty, multi, single)

* [12569f37] Extend CockpitSummary type and build CompanyScorecardCard component (#208)
* [12569f37] feat(cockpit): extend CockpitSummary type with completed_30d and median_lead_time_hours
Add optional delivery.completed_30d (number) and top-level
median_lead_time_hours (number | null, optional) to CockpitSummary
interface in panel/src/lib/api/cockpit.ts so the API shape captures
the new backend fields without breaking existing consumers.

Create panel/src/components/business/company-scorecard-card.tsx
exporting CompanyScorecardCard. The card fetches /cockpit/summary
via useQuery and renders five always-visible sections:
- Delivery: in_flight, blocked, awaiting_ceo, completed_30d tiles
(all from API response; no hardcoded numbers)
- Spend: 30d spend + projected monthly; muted 'No budget cap set'
when cap is null; red/destructive styling only when cap is a
non-null number AND over_budget is true
- Speed: 'X.Xh median — target: < 24h' when value present;
'No data yet' when null/undefined; '0h' never rendered
- Two stub Objectives with 'Not tracked yet' label, muted text,
and dashed-border styling — no fabricated numeric values
- Loading: three grouped Skeleton blocks
- Error: OfflineState with title 'Could not load scorecard data'

* [f1f5cded] Integrate CompanyScorecardCard into GoalsTab and pass quality gate (#209)
* [f1f5cded] feat(cockpit): extend CockpitSummary with completed_30d and median_lead_time_hours
Add optional delivery.completed_30d (number) and top-level
median_lead_time_hours (number | null, optional) to CockpitSummary
interface in panel/src/lib/api/cockpit.ts. Backward compatible.
* [f1f5cded] feat(business): add CompanyScorecardCard component
Create panel/src/components/business/company-scorecard-card.tsx
exporting CompanyScorecardCard. Fetches /cockpit/summary via
useQuery and renders five always-visible sections: Delivery (no
hardcoded numbers), Spend (muted 'No budget cap set' when null;
red only when cap set AND over_budget true), Speed (X.Xh median
or 'No data yet'), two stub Objectives with dashed border and
'Not tracked yet' label. Loading: three skeleton groups. Error:
OfflineState 'Could not load scorecard data'.
* [f1f5cded] feat(goals-tab): integrate CompanyScorecardCard into GoalsTab
Import and render CompanyScorecardCard below the charter form in
goals-tab.tsx. The scorecard fetches its own data independently
so all loading/error states are handled per-card. Both cards are
always rendered in the Goals tab.
* [f1f5cded] fix(scorecard-tests): add vitest framework and CompanyScorecardCard test suite
Install vitest + @testing-library/react + @testing-library/jest-dom +
jsdom + @vitest/coverage-v8 as devDependencies in panel/.
Add panel/vitest.config.ts (jsdom env, @/* alias, coverage on
company-scorecard-card.tsx with 80% threshold).
Add panel/src/test/setup.ts (jest-dom matchers).
Update panel/package.json: add test, test:watch, typecheck scripts.
Update panel/eslint.config.mjs: ignore coverage/ directory to keep
lint clean of generated files.
Write panel/src/components/business/__tests__/company-scorecard-card.test.tsx
with 8 tests covering all 7 AC2 scenarios:
- loading skeleton rendered
- OfflineState on error
- OfflineState when data undefined
- delivery counts from mock data

The self-heal origination tests blind-inserted the fixed-uuid foundation
system agent (and a main-pm agent). In the full CI suite the app lifespan
seeds + commits those agents first, so the insert hit a duplicate-key on
pk_agents — green in isolation, red in CI. Get-or-create both (by id / by
slug) so the tests pass whether or not the agents already exist. Verified
against the real ordering (an app-lifespan integration test before this
file): 187 passed.
All three compose files must carry the same app env; the registry one had
external-PR but was missing the self-heal block. Add it (identical to the build
compose) so docker-compose.yml / .yaml / .registry.yml agree — the registry
file still differs only in image source (registry pulls) and host-env paths.
Both compose files are git-TRACKED, and Docker picks docker-compose.yaml over
.yml — so the NAS reads the .yaml. The self-heal env (and prior changes) had
only been committed to the .yml, leaving the tracked .yaml stale in the repo.
Commit the .yaml so both carry the same config. Going forward: commit BOTH.
It's a monorepo registered as three cell-projects (BE/FE/UXUI) sharing one
git_url, so the CI signal is identical whichever is named; point self-heal at
roboco-api. Overridable via ROBOCO_SELF_HEAL_PROJECT_SLUG. Mirrored into the
untracked .yaml.
Plumb the self-healing knobs into the orchestrator service so a NAS deploy is
configured without hand-editing env: both toggles default OFF (armed from
Settings -> Feature Flags), the CI signal is scoped to ci.yml (RoboCo has
several workflows, so the unscoped "latest completed run" would be
unreliable), and PROJECT_SLUG is left for the deployment to set (which
registered project IS RoboCo). Mirrored byte-identically into the untracked
docker-compose.yaml the NAS uses.
Two hardening fixes from the gap review:
- Optional self_heal_ci_workflow scopes the CI signal to one workflow file
(the workflow-scoped Actions endpoint). Without it, "latest completed run
across all workflows" could miss a red CI run masked by a later passing
workflow, or false-trigger on a non-CI workflow — unreliable on a
multi-workflow repo.
- The loop logs a warning when self-heal is armed but self_heal_project_slug
is unset, so a misconfiguration isn't mistaken for "all green".
Tests cover the workflow-scoped endpoint.
Adversarial review found the load-bearing invariant broken at the dispatch
layer: _dispatch_pm_work skipped only PR_REVIEW_SOURCES, so a PENDING
team=main_pm self_heal task (assigned_to=None, confirmed_by_human=False) was
routed to Main PM and spawned BEFORE the CEO approved it — the "never start
until you approve" promise didn't hold.
Fix: the PM dispatcher now also skips source='self_heal' while
confirmed_by_human is False (before the assigned/unassigned split, so it holds
either way); the task still shows in the panel so the CEO can see and approve
it. approve_and_start flips confirmed_by_human=True (the CEO's start IS the
human confirmation), so it dispatches normally afterward. Other sources are
unaffected.
Tests: a unit test that the dispatcher holds an unconfirmed self_heal task but
routes a confirmed one and ordinary tasks, plus a DB test that approve_and_start
flips the gate. (The readiness gate was deliberately not used — a blocker there
marks the task `blocked`; the dispatch skip leaves it cleanly PENDING.)
The CI telemetry call is the feature's only real-world I/O and was previously
exercised only through a fake source. Cover the GitHub Actions request shape
(/actions/runs, branch/status/per_page, auth) and response parsing, plus the
safe-None paths (missing token, GitHub error, no runs).
Add self_heal_enabled (detect + notify) and self_heal_originate_enabled (also
open fix tasks) to the panel feature-flags registry + card, so the loop can be
armed/disarmed from Settings instead of editing env. Effect is on the next
restart, like the other flags; the self_heal_project_slug target (which repo is
RoboCo) stays a deployment env setting.
Register _self_heal_loop alongside the other background loops (created in
start, cancelled in stop). It returns immediately unless self_heal_enabled, so
a standard deployment adds zero behaviour and makes no CI call; when on it runs
one engine cycle per interval and commits any opened fix task. A test pins the
default-off dormancy (no sleep / CI / DB when disabled).
Behind the second opt-in (self_heal_originate_enabled), a detected regression
also opens a fix task into RoboCo's own delivery lifecycle and STOPS: PENDING,
unassigned, confirmed_by_human=False, team=main_pm, source=self_heal, with
synthesized acceptance criteria and a self_heal_fp= dedupe marker. It rides the
normal dispatchers only once the CEO Approve-&-Starts it; the loop itself never
calls start / approve / merge / deploy.
- TaskService: SELF_HEAL_SOURCE, extract_self_heal_fingerprint, and
list_open_self_heal_tasks (the dedupe + open-cap basis)
- SelfHealEngine._originate: per-signal fingerprint dedupe, per-cycle and
rolling open-task caps, repo resolved to RoboCo's own project (notify-only
when it can't be resolved)
- 7 DB-backed tests including the never-start / never-approve invariant
