The deferred half of the Leonxlnx/taste-skill (MIT) adoption: an
industrial-brutalist / minimalist-editorial / premium-agency aesthetic
vocabulary keyed onto the existing design-bar dials for both FE and UX/UI
team prompts, and a ux_ui-only image-direction section (composition,
palette discipline, anti-slop imagery, mockup conventions) with a pointer
from frontend.md. Layer tests pin presence and team scoping.

Playwright, the taste-skill design bar, and hyperframes were all
implemented — and each stopped one hop short of the hands doing video
work: playwright reached only fe-qa/ux-qa, the design bar's web-UI dials
actively pointed a video task at 'dense product UI -> motion 2-3', and
hyperframes' agent-facing doctrine never reached any agent. Three wires:
- vendor the official HyperFrames agent skills (hyperframes-core,
-keyframes, -creative) under motion/skills/ at a pinned upstream
commit (Apache-2.0, attribution headers; prose reflowed to house
style, re-vendor note in each header); README and the dev video
prompt block point at them
- register the playwright MCP for a ux-dev spawned onto a source=video
task (_is_video_authoring_spawn: fail-closed role/team/task-source
probe) so the composition author can watch their HTML live in a real
browser between renders — gating-only, agent-ux already bakes the
browser; QA gating unchanged, be-qa/ordinary ux-dev still excluded
- design bar video-mode override in the ux_ui team prompt: video tasks
are films, the web dials do not apply — use the cinematography bar
and the vendored doctrine instead

* fix(prompts): point agents at Makefile, drop raw uv run instructions
backend.md:23-26 literally instructed raw uv run ruff/mypy/pytest (copied from
the human-facing CLAUDE.md), so agents bypassed the Makefile's UV_NO_SYNC=1 +
private UV_CACHE_DIR venv-corruption guard. Replace with make targets across
backend/developer/qa/cell_pm + a universal rule in base.md. Regenerate verbs.md
from the updated regen script (baked instruction now make foundation-check) and
align the Makefile drift message. Ships with the bash-guard deny in the next
commit so agents don't loop fighting the guard.
* feat(bash-guard): deny raw uv/pip/conda/poetry, point at Makefile
When a Makefile is present, deny raw uv run/uv pip/uv lock/add/remove, pip/pip3
install/uninstall, conda install/create/run, poetry run/install/add and remediate
to make quality/gate/lint/test. Skipped when no Makefile (Makefile-less projects
not blocked). ROBOCO_GUARD_SKIP_PM=1 (grok path) nudges exit 0 instead of the
run-canceling exit 2. Overrides the prior bare-uv-run-allowed stance by CEO
direction; the /app-targeted blocks above keep priority.
* feat(grok): deny raw uv/pip/conda/poetry via native --deny + PM-skip nudge
Add _RAW_PM_DENY (uv run/pip install/lock/add/remove, pip/pip3 install, conda
install/create/run, poetry run/install/add) to _deny_rules so grok's graceful
native --deny blocks raw package-manager commands (model adapts to make, run
continues — unlike a hook deny which cancels the run). The bash-guard hook
keeps the compound-command fallback (cd x && uv run) and nudges exit 0 there via
ROBOCO_GUARD_SKIP_PM=1 in the grok hook env, never canceling.
* test(bash-guard): align existing tests with W1 Makefile-gate policy
Raw uv run / pip install are now Makefile-gated (W1, CEO item #15), so two
existing bash-guard invariants reverse:
- test_allows_pytest_even_if_suite_uses_requests keeps its HTTP-injection
allow-path intent but uses bare `python -m pytest` (raw `uv run` is now
denied); the deny case is covered by test_bash_guard_makefile_guardrail.
- test_allows_pip_install_in_workspace -> test_denies_pip_install_when_makefile_
present: a workspace clone carries a Makefile, so bare pip install is now
denied -> agents use `make` / `uv sync --extra dev`. Makefile-less skips
stay covered.
Gate: 12994 passed, 439 skipped, 94.81% cov (DB env :55432 user renzof);
the lone flaky integration error passes in isolation (DB-state race, not W1).

A's vendored fable.md and C's design-bar prose went in hard-wrapped, which
fails make quality's reflow-check (the no-hard-wrap gate). Reflowed to one line
per paragraph via scripts/reflow_md.py. reflow-check now clean.
Frontend + UX/UI agents now carry a distilled design-taste bar in their team
prompts: the three dials (variance/motion/density) with dense-product-UI
defaults, plus typography/hierarchy, spacing/layout, motion, and AI-tells-to-
avoid rules, scoped to respect a project's existing design system rather than
override it. compose_prompt is unchanged (pure team/role prompt content).
developer.md gets a pointer whose heading deliberately does NOT start
'## Design bar', preserving the backend-dev negative test. New
tests/unit/agents/test_design_bar_layer.py (5 tests green).
Distilled from Leonxlnx/taste-skill (MIT).
#306 removed the channels/sessions/messages subsystem but left dangling
references. Agents were still told to call removed verbs at spawn, and a
maintenance script referenced a dropped table.
- prompts (roles/identities/teams/base): drop say/open_session/link_session/
channels() and the dead Channels sections; comms rows now teach A2A
(dm + read_a2a); renumber the PM workflow steps the removed open_session
step left behind
- scripts/reset_runtime_state.sql: drop the dropped chunks_conversations table
- models/events.py: mark the retired SESSION_*/MESSAGE_SENT enum members inert
- mcp/{do,flow}_server.py: drop the dead SESSION_CLOSED error-map key
- panel: drop channels_read/write from AgentPermissions; remove dead channel:
KB source branch
- pyproject.toml: refresh a ruff-exemption example off the removed verb kwargs
- CHANGELOG: record #306 under [Unreleased]
A documentation audit against the code surfaced several stale claims:
- Agent count: the roster is 19 AI agents (the UX/UI cell has two devs,
ux-dev-1 + ux-dev-2), not 18 / a single UX dev. Fixed in README,
CLAUDE.md, base.md, and docs/ux_ui.
- API: domain routes are mounted under /api, not /api/v1 (the /api/v1
prefix is the agent gateway only); dropped the non-existent /api/v1/test
group; fixed the orchestrator-status path in deployment.md.
- Quick Start uvicorn target is roboco.api.app:app (the api package
deliberately does not export app).
- Verb table: the developer PR verb is open_pr (renamed from
submit_for_qa); the lifecycle's canonical module is
foundation/policy/lifecycle.py (enforcement/task_lifecycle.py is a shim).
- Backend team stack: vector store is PostgreSQL + pgvector (via piragi),
not Qdrant; mypy targets roboco/, not src/.
- .env.example: replaced the phantom Qdrant/OpenAI blocks with the real
Ollama/RAG settings.
Phase 2 - A2A Protocol:
- Add A2A models (AgentCard, Task, Message)
- Add A2A service layer
- Add A2A routes with SSE streaming
- Add agent discovery endpoints
Phase 3 - Kubernetes:
- Add deploy/ directory with Kustomize structure
- PostgreSQL StatefulSet with pgvector
- Redis Deployment with persistence
- API and Orchestrator Deployments
- RBAC for orchestrator to manage Jobs
- ArgoCD Application manifest
- Development and production overlays
- K8s Jobs API support in orchestrator
