3ccc723cd4 v0.17.0 — Wave 3: sandbox DB, DB isolation, mobile UI, cloud auth, X account, roadmap engine (#303)
* feat(sandbox): throwaway per-agent Postgres/Redis sandbox containers

Orchestrator-provisioned sibling containers per agent spawn
(SandboxProvisioner, roboco/runtime/sandbox.py). Per-project opt-in via
projects.sandbox_services (migration 057); master switch
ROBOCO_SANDBOX_DB_ENABLED, default-off, armed in the NAS compose only.

When active, ROBOCO_TEST_DB_* / ROBOCO_TEST_REDIS_* point at the sandbox
and the prod-creds gate-env injection is suppressed (sandbox replaces,
never coexists). Sandbox lifetime tracks the agent container: teardown at
every removal path, orphan janitor at startup + each reaper tick with a
grace window for mid-flight spawns. The pre-spawn stale-clear spares the
just-provisioned sandbox; provision pre-clears stale same-named
containers from a crash-missed teardown.

Panel: per-project sandbox-service switches in the edit dialog + feature
flag card entry.

* docs: CLAUDE.md entry for the sandboxed dev DB/Redis subsystem

* feat(security): isolate prod Postgres/Redis from agent containers (roboco_data network)

Second user-defined bridge roboco_data carries postgres+redis only; the
orchestrator is multi-homed (default + data). Spawned agents and their
sandbox sidecars stay on roboco_default and can no longer resolve or
reach roboco-postgres:5432 / roboco-redis:6379 (redis has no auth —
membership is its only containment). Normal bridge, so host-published
ports (15432/16379) keep working. Applied to both build composes and
the registry compose; docker-compose.yml re-synced byte-identical with
docker-compose.yaml (it had drifted by the sandbox flag block).

ROBOCO_DB_NETWORK_ISOLATED (config default false, armed alongside the
topology) suppresses the legacy _append_gate_env prod-creds injection:
under isolation those creds dead-end, and unreachable creds are worse
than none. DB-needing projects opt into sandbox_services instead. The
flag is deliberately not a panel feature flag - it must travel with the
compose networks: stanzas.

Preserved by construction: agent<->agent A2A and orchestrator->agent SDK
polls on :9000, MCP->orchestrator on :8000, ollama reachability, docker
exec/inspect (daemon socket), host port publishing.

* feat(panel): full mobile responsiveness pass

Shared primitives: useIsMobile (useSyncExternalStore, hydration-safe,
memoized matchMedia subscribe), ResponsiveTable table->card switch below
md (single subtree mounted, no duplicated interactive rows), scrollable
snap TabsList in the base primitive (justify-center-safe so the first
tab stays reachable on overflow), persistent md:hidden bottom tab bar
(Overview/Tasks/Kanban/Chat, safe-area padded).

Applied: card lists for tasks/projects/products/work-sessions/sessions
+ the three raw metrics tables; CEO approval queue / release proposal /
playbook review action rows stack on narrow; command-center reorders
approvals above the fold on mobile; task-header metadata wraps;
Communications + A2A become URL-driven single-pane drill-downs below lg
(fixes the unconstrained-height ScrollArea bug) with dvh heights;
recharts label density/radius adapts via useIsMobile; git diff viewer
gets mobile font + wrap toggle; vh->dvh sweep; chat composers get
safe-area-inset padding; dashboard main p-4 md:p-6 + pb-20 for the bar.

Verified at 375px on the built app: bottom bar, drawer, approval-first
overview, swipeable kanban tab strip. All gates green (eslint, tsc,
vitest 249, next build 24/24 routes).

* feat(auth): cloud auth via FastAPI Users (default-off, single-user cookie session)

ROBOCO_CLOUD_AUTH_ENABLED (default off) lets the panel/API be exposed
beyond localhost without changing the CEO's local no-login flow while
off — get_agent_context and the WS gate are byte-for-byte unchanged in
off-mode. On: header-trust dies for humans — any agent-role claim (ceo
or a privileged PM/board role) with no valid HMAC token or session
cookie is 401, closing the header-spoof hole on the host-published
:8000 port for every role. The agent-fleet HMAC path and the system
self-PATCH keep working unmodified in both modes.

Single seeded CEO user (migration 058 users table, UserTable), no
registration router — idempotent env-driven upsert at startup by PK.
Cookie transport (httponly/secure/samesite=lax) + a JWTStrategy bound
to a fingerprint of the current password hash (rotating the password
invalidates every prior session). Sliding 30-day session: every
authenticated request re-mints the cookie, so an active session never
expires — no unexpected logouts.

Panel: (auth)/login page + proxy.ts (Next 16 rename of middleware; probes
/auth/status over the docker-internal URL, fails open to off) gate the
dashboard; client.ts gets withCredentials + 401->/login. nginx unchanged.

Review hardening: broadened the on-mode rejection from ceo-only to every
non-CEO role without a valid token (was only closed when
ROBOCO_AGENT_AUTH_REQUIRED was also armed); Next-16 proxy.ts rename to
clear the middleware deprecation warning.

* feat(x): RoboCo X account engine — HoM drafts, per-post CEO approval (default-off)

ROBOCO_X_ENGINE_ENABLED (default off, inert without creds). Mirrors the
ReleaseManagerEngine held-artifact shape: XEngine drafts a post when a
release publishes (via a draft_release_post seam on ReleaseProposalService
.approve) and drafts replies to meaningful mentions (dedicated poll loop,
x_seen_mentions dedup ledger, per-cycle/open caps). Drafting is
local-model-only, clamped to 280 chars. Nothing auto-posts — every tweet
is a held task (source x_post/x_reply, confirmed_by_human=False,
Secretary-owned, dispatcher-skipped) the CEO edits/approves/rejects in a
panel queue.

The four OAuth 1.0a secrets live Fernet-encrypted in a singleton
x_credentials row (migration 059, all-or-nothing, API returns only
has_credentials); decryption is server-side, agents never hold creds or
egress. Hand-rolled OAuth 1.0a HMAC-SHA1 signer, no new dependency;
NullXClient makes the unconfigured path a graceful no-op.

XPostService.approve (CEO-only) is the sole caller of post_tweet.

Review hardening: closed a double-post race — the approve path now
re-reads committed task state inside the Redis lock and commits COMPLETED
before releasing, so a concurrent approve that acquires the lock after the
winner released can't re-post (SET-NX is non-waiting, and the route-level
commit landed after the lock dropped). Added a regression test.

* feat(roadmap): board roadmap engine — PO proposes themed cycles, CEO approves per-item (default-off)

ROBOCO_ROADMAP_ENGINE_ENABLED (default off). Weekly, RoadmapEngine opens
ONE held exploration task (source=board_roadmap, confirmed_by_human=False,
Product-Owner-assigned), deduped to one open cycle. A dedicated one-shot
_dispatch_roadmap_exploration spawns the PO solo (not the two-reviewer
board path, which would also spawn HoM + fire Approve-&-Start). The PO
explores read-only (git/KB/metrics/releases/charter/web) and makes one
propose_roadmap call (PO-only content verb) authoring a themed cycle —
goal + 3-7 item drafts — persisted as a roadmap_cycle marker (no table,
no migration; head stays 059).

The CEO acts per-item in the panel roadmap queue: approve materializes a
BACKLOG task (source=roadmap, no assignee — never auto-starts), reject
records a reason; all-items-terminal completes the exploration task.
RoadmapService is idempotent per item. Dispatchers skip board_roadmap.

Includes a real SQLAlchemy dirty-check fix (deep-copy the JSON marker
before mutating, or the in-place edit + reassign compares equal to its
own baseline and the UPDATE is skipped).

Review hardening: create_task_from_draft now honors a draft-declared
source only from a {prompter, roadmap} whitelist — drafts are
LLM-authored, so an unbounded source could impersonate a privileged
origin (release_manager would even wedge that engine's dedup).

* chore(release): 0.17.0

Wave 3 — six default-off subsystems: sandboxed dev DB/Redis, prod
Postgres/Redis network isolation, full mobile UI pass, cloud auth
(FastAPI Users), the RoboCo X account engine, and the board roadmap
engine. Plus the waves 1+2 work already on master since 0.16.0.

Version bumped across the canonical set (config.py, __init__.py,
pyproject.toml, panel/package.json, uv.lock); CHANGELOG [Unreleased]
cut to [0.17.0]; docs/map delta added.

Compose: every optional feature armed :-true in the NAS composes, OFF
in the user-facing registry compose. Two opt-in exceptions default off
(CLOUD_AUTH — needs email/password/secret + TLS, would otherwise fail
startup; ROUTING_STRICT — fail-closed spawning). DB_NETWORK_ISOLATED
stays on in both (coupled to the roboco_data topology).

* chore(compose): arm cloud_auth + routing_strict ON in the NAS composes

Every feature defaults ON in the NAS composes per policy — these two
were wrongly left off. Both keep the ${VAR:-true} form so the operator
controls the real runtime via .env: cloud auth needs
ROBOCO_CLOUD_AUTH_EMAIL/_PASSWORD/_SECRET + TLS set there before a boot
(else startup fails loud), and routing_strict is fail-closed. Registry
compose keeps both off.

* fix(ci): reflow board.md prose (quality gate) + document v0.17.0 env creds

The roadmap section added hard-wrapped prose that failed the markdown
prose gate; reflowed (token-invariant). Also brought .env.example
current: cloud auth (now armed — needs SECRET or startup fails), routing
strict, the X engine (panel-entered OAuth), and web research.

* fix(ci): reduce cyclomatic complexity of five wave-3 blocks (xenon gate)

The wave-3 subagents introduced C-rank functions the CI xenon gate
rejects (my per-item reviews ran ruff/mypy/pytest but not xenon):
- sandbox.janitor_sweep -> extract _list_labeled_sandboxes /
  _list_live_agent_containers / _prune_grace
- x_client.fetch_mentions -> extract _parse_mention_items
- x_engine.run_cycle -> extract _process_mentions
- orchestrator._dispatch_pm_work -> extract the source-skip into a
  MODULE-level _is_held_ceo_source (module, not method, so the
  wholesale-mocked dispatcher unit tests exercise the real logic)
- auth/seed.ensure_seed_user -> extract _apply_seed_updates (module avg -> A)

Behavior-preserving; full suite green (11902), xenon clean.

* fix(ci): declare pyjwt + fastapi-users-db-sqlalchemy as direct deps (deptry)

The cloud-auth code imports jwt and fastapi_users_db_sqlalchemy directly
but they were only transitive deps (via fastapi-users), which deptry
(quality gate, DEP003) rejects. Declared explicitly; deptry roboco/ clean.
Missed originally because local make quality stopped at earlier gates
before reaching deptry.

* feat(x): gate mention replies behind ROBOCO_X_REPLIES_ENABLED (default off)

Per CEO decision: the X engine should only post about releases by
default. Reading mentions needs a paid X API tier, so the mention-reply
half is now a deliberate opt-in on top of release posting.

New default-off flag x_replies_enabled gates the mentions poll loop
(_x_mentions_poll_loop) and XEngine.run_cycle; release-post drafting
(the release-proposal approve hook) is unaffected and still runs when
x_engine_enabled + credentials are set. Added to FEATURE_FLAGS + the
panel card. Tests: release posting works with replies off; run_cycle +
the poll loop are no-ops with replies off.

* fix: 401 only redirects to /login when cloud auth is on; panel-token strips .env quotes

Two bugs that together dead-ended login in secure mode:
- client.ts redirected to /login on ANY 401, so a mismatched panel
  token (header-trust/secure mode, cloud auth off) bounced the user to a
  login page whose backend route isn't mounted -> 404. Now it probes
  /auth/status (bare fetch, no interceptor re-entry) and only redirects
  when cloud_auth_enabled.
- make panel-token read the .env secret with grep|cut without stripping
  surrounding quotes, so a quoted ROBOCO_AGENT_AUTH_SECRET produced a
  token signed with the quotes included — which never verifies against
  the orchestrator (docker-compose/pydantic unquote the secret). Now
  strips surrounding single/double quotes.

* fix: git-log 500 on '|' in commit message; X queue shows an empty state

- GET /api/git/log 500'd (ValueError: Invalid isoformat) when a commit
  SUBJECT contained a '|' (e.g. the 'curl|sh' lockdown commit): the
  fixed '|' field delimiter let the subject's pipe shift the split so
  author+date collapsed into one field. Switched to \x1f (Unit
  Separator), which can't appear in commit content. Regression test with
  a piped subject.
- The X Post Queue returned null when empty, so there was no visible
  place for the X drafts. It now renders a discoverable empty state
  pointing at Settings -> X credentials.

* docs: bring docs/rag + docs/map current for v0.17.0 (waves 1-3)

Agent-facing RAG corpus and codebase map updated for every feature in
the 0.17.0 span, code-verified:
- wave 3: sandbox DB, DB network isolation, cloud auth, X engine
  (+ x_replies_enabled sub-flag), board roadmap engine — new RAG
  architecture pages + role/tool/config-reference updates; new symbols,
  migrations 057-059, panel surfaces, and the get_agent_context
  dual-path across the map slices.
- waves 1-2: A2A live view + switchboard, prompter memory
  (search_past_tasks), Secretary edit access + PM-lighter scope, the
  PR-gate auto-submit turn cut (ROBOCO_PR_GATE_AUTO_SUBMIT_ENABLED).
- correctness fix: api-routes-schemas.md no longer claims the A2A admin
  routes are reachable by any authenticated agent — they carry a
  _require_ceo gate (wave 2c).

docs/internal, _front.md deltas, and the frozen _complete_map.md
snapshot untouched.

* fix(rag): atomic upsert for indexed-doc tracking (kills e2e segfault)

The indexed-document tracking write used check-then-insert in two paths
(IndexedDocumentRepository.upsert_batch and the file-source
_upsert_doc_record). Under concurrent indexing both callers saw no row
and both inserted, so the second violated uq_indexed_doc_source and
poisoned its transaction — surfacing in CI as the intermittent
_checkin_failed SIGSEGV on the failed connection's pool checkin.

Both paths now use INSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE against the
constraint: coalesce keeps an existing title/preview when the new value
is empty (matching the old guards) and metadata is jsonb-merged. The
batch dedupes within itself first (ON CONFLICT can't touch a row twice
in one statement). expire_all after the Core upsert keeps same-session
ORM reads consistent with the merged DB row.

# RoboCo Slice Map — `mcp-servers`
Scope: `roboco/mcp/` (every server file + `schemas/` + `utils.py`). Repo root: `/Users/renzof/Documents/GitHub/ZZZ/roboco-master/roboco`.
## Purpose
The `roboco/mcp` package is the agent-side MCP gateway: a set of `FastMCP` server processes that run **inside each agent container** and expose the RoboCo intent-verb / content-tool / RAG / docs / git-readonly / intake / secretary / web-research surfaces to the Claude Code or grok-CLI runtime as MCP tools. They are thin bridges — every tool either POSTs to the orchestrator's HTTP gateway (`/api/v1/flow/*`, `/api/v1/do/*`, `/api/git/*`, `/optimal/*`, `/docs/*`, `/research/*`, `/api/secretary/*`, `/api/prompter/live/*`) or, for the flow/do path, additionally forwards rejections to a per-container SDK loopback (`ROBOCO_SDK_URL`) that runs the per-verb circuit breaker. The orchestrator (not the MCP layer) is the authority for role scoping, state transitions, and git-side effects; the MCP layer only shapes calls, classifies rejections, and substitutes `circuit_open` envelopes when the breaker trips.
## Files
| Path | Role | approx LOC |
|------|------|------------|
| `roboco/mcp/__init__.py` | Package docstring only — deliberately import-free so `python -m roboco.mcp.<name>` does not pull sibling modules (esp. `optimal_server`'s pgvector/ollama stack, ~6s startup). | 23 |
| `roboco/mcp/utils.py` | Shared HTTP helpers: `_get_agent_headers`, `format_error_response`, `ApiResponse`, `ApiClient` (async httpx wrapper). Used by `optimal_server`, `docs_server`, `search_server`. | 383 |
| `roboco/mcp/schemas/__init__.py` | Pydantic input models. After Phase-4 T9 deletions only `WriteDocInput` remains. | 35 |
| `roboco/mcp/flow_server.py` | `roboco-flow` MCP server — intent verbs (lifecycle). Manifest-scoped registration, role-scoped path `/api/v1/flow/<route>/<verb>`, per-verb circuit breaker + 404-route synthesis. | 1028 |
| `roboco/mcp/do_server.py` | `roboco-do` MCP server — content tools (commit, note, pitch, propose_roadmap, say, dm, notify, evidence, progress, sessions, playbook curation, pr_update). Manifest-scoped; fixed `/api/v1/do/<verb>` path; mirror circuit breaker. | 976 |
| `roboco/mcp/optimal_server.py` | `roboco-optimal` MCP server — RAG / KB / mentor / error / decision / standards / learnings / index-mgmt / proactive-context. Factory `create_optimal_mcp_server(agent_id)`; calls `/optimal/*`. | 1102 |
| `roboco/mcp/docs_server.py` | `roboco-docs` MCP server — docs write/read/list/delete via `/docs/*`. Factory `create_docs_mcp_server(agent_id)`. RAG-based dedup on write. | 251 |
| `roboco/mcp/git_readonly.py` | `roboco-git-readonly` MCP server — four read-only git views (status/log/diff/branch list) via `/api/git/*`. No breaker, no manifest. | 123 |
| `roboco/mcp/intake_server.py` | `roboco-intake` MCP server — grok intake path only: `propose_draft` / `propose_batch` POST directly to the prompter-live relay. | 215 |
| `roboco/mcp/secretary_server.py` | `roboco-secretary` MCP server — grok secretary path only: `read_company_state` / `read_task` / `submit_directive`, delegating to `agent_sdk.secretary_driver`. | 64 |
| `roboco/mcp/search_server.py` | `roboco-search` MCP server — `web_search` / `web_fetch` via `/research/*` (provider key stays server-side). Factory `create_search_mcp_server(agent_id)`. | 130 |
(Excluded: `__pycache__/`, `.DS_Store`.)

## Data Flow
Every server is launched as its own subprocess (`uv run --no-sync python -m roboco.mcp.<name> [agent_id]`) by the orchestrator's `_generate_mcp_config` (for flow/do/git-readonly/optimal/docs/search) or by the grok intake/secretary mains (for intake/secretary). At import time the flow/do servers read `/app/tool-manifest.json` (env `ROBOCO_TOOL_MANIFEST_PATH`) and register only the verbs/tools listed for the role — refusing to start if the manifest is missing, unless `ROBOCO_ALLOW_FULL_TOOLSET` is set (dev/test only; the all-tools fallback was the original bug that let PMs see dev verbs and 404). The optimal/docs/search/intake/secretary/git-readonly servers register their full tool surface unconditionally (role gating is server-side at the route).
When an agent calls a tool:
1. **flow/do**`_post` builds headers (fresh `X-Correlation-ID` per call), POSTs the JSON body to the orchestrator at `/api/v1/flow/<route>/<verb>` or `/api/v1/do/<verb>`. On 404 (a manifest-advertised verb with no matching route) it synthesizes an `invalid_state` Envelope so the agent gets a `remediate` hint instead of a raw `detail` body. On non-JSON body it synthesizes `transport_error`. Otherwise the Envelope is surfaced as-is (success or rejection).
2. **breaker path**`_classify_rejection` determines whether the envelope is a counted rejection (string kind / dict `error.code` / 422 `detail` list). If counted, `_record_and_check_circuit` POSTs to the local SDK at `ROBOCO_SDK_URL/verb/attempted` (2s timeout). If the SDK returns `open=true`, the original rejection is **replaced** by the SDK's `circuit_envelope` before returning to the agent — stopping retry storms. SDK unreachable → fail-open (return original payload + log).
3. **optimal/docs/search**`ApiClient` (async httpx) calls the orchestrator's `/optimal/*`, `/docs/*`, `/research/*` routes with `X-Agent-*` headers; shapes the response into a tool-specific dict (status, results, hints).
4. **git-readonly**`_get` does a synchronous httpx GET to `/api/git/*` with `X-Agent-ID`/`X-Agent-Role`; `raise_for_status` propagates HTTP errors.
5. **intake**`propose_draft`/`propose_batch` POST directly to `/api/prompter/live/{session}/events` (the prompter-live relay) because grok's `streaming-json` output does not surface tool-call events. Returns a human-readable string (not an Envelope).
6. **secretary** — the three tools delegate to `agent_sdk.secretary_driver._do_*` helpers (shared with the Claude SDK path) and `json.dumps` the result.

## Dependencies
**Internal (roboco):**
- `roboco.config.settings``internal_api_url` (utils), `research_enabled` (orchestrator mount gate).
- `roboco.agents_config``get_agent_role`, `get_agent_team` (utils headers).
- `roboco.api.schemas.common.error_response` (utils `format_error_response`).
- `roboco.foundation.policy.content.validators.coerce_str_list` (flow `StrList`).
- `roboco.agent_sdk.secretary_driver``_do_read_state` / `_do_read_task` / `_do_submit_directive` (secretary server).
- `roboco.mcp.schemas.WriteDocInput` (docs server).
- `roboco.mcp.utils.ApiClient` / `format_error_response` (optimal, docs, search).
**External:**
- `mcp.server.fastmcp.FastMCP` — MCP server framework (all servers).
- `pydantic` (`BaseModel`, `Field`, `BeforeValidator`, `Annotated`) — input validation.
- `httpx` — sync (flow/do/git-readonly) + async (utils ApiClient, intake) HTTP.
- `structlog` — logging (flow/do).
- `fastapi.status` — HTTP status constants (optimal).
**Downstream consumers:**
- `roboco.runtime.orchestrator._generate_mcp_config` — mounts flow/do/git-readonly/optimal (always), docs (docs_roles), search (research_roles + `research_enabled`).
- `roboco.agent_sdk.grok_intake_main` / `grok_secretary_main` — mount intake/secretary for the grok path.
- `roboco.runtime.spawn_manifest` — writes `/app/tool-manifest.json` (the `flow_tools`/`do_tools` lists the flow/do servers read at import).
## Entry Points
- `python -m roboco.mcp.flow_server``mcp.run()` at `flow_server.py:1028`. Env required: `ROBOCO_AGENT_ID`, `ROBOCO_AGENT_ROLE`; reads `ROBOCO_ORCHESTRATOR_URL`, `ROBOCO_SDK_URL`, `ROBOCO_TOOL_MANIFEST_PATH`.
- `python -m roboco.mcp.do_server``mcp.run()` at `do_server.py:954`. Same env as flow.
- `python -m roboco.mcp.git_readonly``mcp.run()` at `git_readonly.py:123`. Env: `ROBOCO_AGENT_ID`, `ROBOCO_AGENT_ROLE`, `ROBOCO_ORCHESTRATOR_URL`.
- `python -m roboco.mcp.optimal_server <agent_id>``server.run()` at `optimal_server.py:1102`. Positional `agent_id` arg.
- `python -m roboco.mcp.docs_server <agent_id>``server.run()` at `docs_server.py:251`.
- `python -m roboco.mcp.search_server <agent_id>``server.run()` at `search_server.py:130`.
- `python -m roboco.mcp.intake_server``mcp.run()` at `intake_server.py:215`. Env: `ROBOCO_API_URL`, `ROBOCO_PROMPTER_SESSION_ID`. Mounted by `grok_intake_main`, NOT by the orchestrator.
- `python -m roboco.mcp.secretary_server``mcp.run()` at `secretary_server.py:64`. Env: `ROBOCO_API_URL`, `ROBOCO_AGENT_ID`, `ROBOCO_AGENT_ROLE`, `ROBOCO_AGENT_TOKEN`. Mounted by `grok_secretary_main`, NOT by the orchestrator.
Invocation is one subprocess per agent container (the orchestrator writes `roboco-mcp-{agent_id}.json` into `/app/mcp-configs` and the runtime launches each `mcpServers` entry with `uv run --no-sync` pinned to `/app/.venv`).
## Config Flags
Env vars read in this slice (all `ROBOCO_*`):
| Flag / env | Where | Purpose |
|------------|-------|---------|
| `ROBOCO_AGENT_ID` | flow, do, git-readonly (required) | Agent identity for `X-Agent-ID` header + role-path. |
| `ROBOCO_AGENT_ROLE` | flow, do, git-readonly (required) | Role for `X-Agent-Role` + flow route prefix. |
| `ROBOCO_AGENT_TOKEN` | utils `_get_agent_headers` | HMAC agent token injected by orchestrator at spawn; sent as `X-Agent-Token`. |
| `ROBOCO_ORCHESTRATOR_URL` | flow, do, git-readonly | Orchestrator base URL (default `http://roboco-orchestrator:8000`). |
| `ROBOCO_SDK_URL` | flow, do | Per-container SDK loopback for the breaker (default `http://localhost:9000`). |
| `ROBOCO_TOOL_MANIFEST_PATH` | flow, do | Path to the spawn manifest (default `/app/tool-manifest.json`). |
| `ROBOCO_API_URL` | intake, secretary | Orchestrator base URL for the grok-path servers. |
| `ROBOCO_PROMPTER_SESSION_ID` | intake | The live intake session id; without it `propose_draft`/`propose_batch` return a no-op string. |
| `ROBOCO_PROJECT_SLUG` / `ROBOCO_BRANCH` | set by orchestrator into `mcp_env` (consumed indirectly by `/api/git/*`) | Git context. |
| `settings.research_enabled` | orchestrator mount gate for `roboco-search` (not read inside the slice) | Web-research server armed only when true AND role in research_roles. |
| `settings.internal_api_url` | utils `ApiClient.base_url` | Base URL for optimal/docs/search async calls. |
| `ROBOCO_ALLOW_FULL_TOOLSET` | flow `_register_tools`, do `_register_tools` | Dev/test escape hatch: when set, a missing manifest registers the full tool set instead of raising `RuntimeError`. Never set in production — the full-toolset path was the original bug this policy replaced. |
No default-off feature flag is armed *inside* this slice; the only flag-gated server here is `roboco-search` (gated upstream by `ROBOCO_RESEARCH_ENABLED` in the orchestrator mount).
## Gotchas
- **Import-free `__init__.py` is load-bearing.** Re-exporting server factories here would force `optimal_server` (pgvector/ollama stack, ~6s) to load on every `python -m roboco.mcp.<name>` and time out the MCP init — symptom: "roboco-flow/do tools never register".
- **flow/do refuse to start without the manifest** unless `ROBOCO_ALLOW_FULL_TOOLSET` is set. A missing `/app/tool-manifest.json` raises `RuntimeError` at import (production path). Previously the fallback registered all verbs, letting PMs call dev verbs at wrong URLs (404 storm). Local test runs without the bind mount can either set `ROBOCO_TOOL_MANIFEST_PATH` to a real file or set `ROBOCO_ALLOW_FULL_TOOLSET` to skip the hard-fail; the latter must never reach production containers.
- **`pass`/`fail` are Python keywords.** The IntentSpec layer uses `pass_review`/`fail_review`; the MCP layer exposes the public names `pass`/`fail`. `_INTENT_TO_PUBLIC` bridges the two. Forgetting this bridge silently drops QA tools from the palette (the dogfood bug that motivated it).
- **Dict-shaped `error` crashes a naive breaker.** `error in frozenset` raises `TypeError: unhashable type: 'dict'` when FastAPI exception handlers return `error` as a dict. `_classify_rejection` uses `isinstance` checks first — never a `dict in frozenset` membership test.
- **404 handling has three cases (updated 536bbb64).** (1) Bare default FastAPI 404 (`{"detail": "Not Found"}`) → missing route, synthesized as `invalid_state` with a wiring-gap remediate. (2) 404 carrying an `error` field → surfaced as-is (proxy re-status edge case). (3) 404 with a *descriptive* `detail` string → surfaced as `not_found` with a re-fetch remediate (#61). Previously only cases 1 and 2 existed and a descriptive 404 was mis-synthesized as `invalid_state`.
- **`StrList` is not just cosmetic.** A bare `list[str]` annotation hard-rejects the Claude SDK's nested `[[["…"]]]` / `[{item: {$text}}]` tool-input shapes at MCP validation *before* the verb body runs — surfacing as a confusing `1 validation error for i_will_planArguments…`. The `BeforeValidator` flattens first.
- **Breaker is fail-open.** SDK unreachable/slow/malformed → return the original rejection. The breaker is a safety net only; it must never break the gateway path. `_SDK_TIMEOUT=2.0` is tight by design.
- **`note(scope='handoff')` top-level `done`/`next` are the load-bearing fields for PM resumption.** Passing an empty `section={}` used to crash the minimax PMs (`done Field required``note circuit_open` → tracing gate blocked `delegate`). The MCP signature now has `done`/`next` as discrete string params. Do not pass `section={}`.
- **`propose_batch` filters and refuses empty batches.** Drafts without a string `title` OR `name` are dropped (via `_draft_title`); a `name`-only draft is normalized onto `title` before posting; if all are dropped it returns an error string instead of POSTing (would silently vanish on the panel side). `dropped` count is sent to the relay. Previously only `title` was accepted — `name`-only drafts were silently dropped even if well-formed (536bbb64).
- **intake/secretary are NOT mounted by the orchestrator.** They are mounted by `grok_intake_main`/`grok_secretary_main` for the grok path only. The orchestrator's `_generate_mcp_config` only knows flow/do/git-readonly/optimal/docs/search.
- **`optimal_server` positional `agent_id` is mandatory.** `python -m roboco.mcp.optimal_server` with no arg prints usage and exits 1. Same for docs/search.
- **`normalize_index_types`** maps the legacy `docs` alias to `documentation` before the route's `IndexType(...)` conversion — without it agents passing `index_types=["docs"]` get a 400.
- **git-readonly uses `raise_for_status`.** Unlike flow/do (which surface 4xx Envelopes), git-readonly propagates HTTP errors as exceptions. A non-200 from `/api/git/*` surfaces to the agent as a transport error, not an Envelope.
- **`X-Correlation-ID` is minted per MCP call** in flow/do (not per session). The orchestrator's `CorrelationIdMiddleware` accepts it as the inbound id and binds structlog + audit row to it.
## Drift from CLAUDE.md
CLAUDE.md "MCP servers running per agent container" table lists 5 servers (`roboco-flow`, `roboco-do`, `roboco-git-readonly`, `roboco-optimal`, `roboco-docs`). The actual `roboco/mcp/` directory contains **8** server modules:
- `roboco/mcp/intake_server.py` (roboco-intake) — omitted from the CLAUDE.md table. Mounted by `grok_intake_main` for the grok intake path, not by `_generate_mcp_config`.
- `roboco/mcp/secretary_server.py` (roboco-secretary) — omitted from the CLAUDE.md table. Mounted by `grok_secretary_main` for the grok secretary path.
- `roboco/mcp/search_server.py` (roboco-search) — omitted from the CLAUDE.md table. Mounted by `_generate_mcp_config` (orchestrator.py:2915) only when `settings.research_enabled` AND role in `(cell_pm, main_pm, product_owner, head_marketing)`.
CLAUDE.md "roboco-optimal" row says the server exposes `roboco_ask_mentor`, `roboco_kb_search` only. The actual `optimal_server.py` registers **18** tools (search/rag/stats/index_code/index_docs/tokens_estimate/ask_mentor/search_error/record_error_solution/check_decision/record_decision/get_standards/validate_action/review_code/record_learning/search_learnings/clear_index/reindex_all/index_status/get_proactive_context). Understatement, not contradiction.
CLAUDE.md "roboco-do" row lists `commit, note, say, dm, evidence` and (in the Agent Gateway section) `draft_playbook` for delivery roles + `approve_playbook`/`reject_playbook`/`archive_playbook` for the Auditor. The actual `do_server.py` `do_tools` registry also contains `pitch`, `propose_roadmap` (Product Owner only), `progress`, `open_session`, `link_session`, `notify`, `notify_list`, `notify_get`, `notify_ack`, `channels`, `pr_update`, `read_messages` — none mentioned in CLAUDE.md (`_TOOLS` is 21 entries, not the 5 named). Understatement.
CLAUDE.md says the `note`/journal write "returns as soon as the entry is persisted; RAG indexing runs fire-and-forget." The MCP `note` tool itself is synchronous w.r.t. the orchestrator (a single POST); the fire-and-forget behavior is server-side, not visible in this slice — consistent, not drift.
No contradicted claims found in this slice; the drift is omission (3 servers, ~13 do-tools, ~16 optimal tools not listed).

Only **one** commit touched this slice since baseline:
- **`15effce0` — "Chore: 141 Gaps fill-in (#283)"** (merged PR, 2026-06-29). IMPACT on this slice:
- **`flow_server.py`**: added `StrList` (`BeforeValidator(coerce_str_list)`) so the Claude SDK's nested XML-ish tool-input shapes flatten before MCP validation; added `_MISSING_ROUTE_STATUS` 404 handling that synthesizes an `invalid_state` Envelope for manifest-registered verbs whose HTTP route is missing; added `_classify_dict_error_code` + `_classify_rejection` so dict-shaped `error` (FastAPI exception handlers) and 422 `detail`-list rejections count toward the per-verb circuit breaker (previously bypassed → unbounded retries); guarded against `TypeError: unhashable type: 'dict'`.
- **`do_server.py`**: mirrored the same breaker machinery (the dogfood gap: `note(scope='decision')` had looped 8× returning `incomplete_input` with no breaker) + the same 404 missing-route synthesis.
- **`intake_server.py`**: docstring-only change — `propose_draft`/`propose_batch` tool descriptions now declare the per-cell `project_id` on `the_work[]` entries (MegaTask multi-cell fan-out). No logic change in intake.
No other commits in this slice since baseline.
> Post-snapshot updates (since 2026-06-29):

> - **`536bbb64` — "Chore/all/logical gaps sweep (#286)"** (merged 2026-06-30). IMPACT on this slice:
> - **`flow_server.py` + `do_server.py`**: added `_DICT_ERROR_CODE_MAP` (exact code→kind map, replacing pure-substring classification; closes AUTHENTICATION_REQUIRED mis-routing #161); added descriptive-404 carve-out in `_post` (surfaced as `not_found` instead of `invalid_state` for real resource-not-found 404s, #61); the circuit_open substitution now dict-copies the SDK envelope and nests the original rejection as `inner` (#60); `_register_tools` now accepts `ROBOCO_ALLOW_FULL_TOOLSET` as a dev/test escape hatch instead of always raising `RuntimeError` (#162).
> - **`intake_server.py`**: `propose_batch` now accepts `name` as a fallback for `title` (via new `_draft_title` / `_normalize_batch_drafts` helpers); `name`-only drafts are normalized onto `title` before posting rather than silently dropped (#163).
> - **`docs_server.py`**: `_handle_write` now surfaces a `commit_status == "failed"` outcome in the tool return string, telling the documenter to warn the cell PM when the doc could not be committed to the project repo (#34).
>
> - **`0d714b6c` — "[chore] mcp-servers: normalize exception bodies to Envelope + lift task_id/correlation_id on circuit_open"** (committed 2026-06-30). IMPACT on this slice:
> - **`flow_server.py` + `do_server.py`**: added `_remediate_for_kind` and `_normalize_exception_envelope`; the non-404 JSON path in `_post` now normalizes dict-`error` exception-handler bodies and 422 `detail` lists into the Envelope wire format so agents get `remediate`/`next` instead of raw exception bodies (#232); `_record_and_check_circuit` lifts `task_id`/`correlation_id` from the original rejection onto the circuit_open envelope top level (#359).
> - **`intake_server.py`**: `_post_event` captures relay response body under `detail` on non-success so the grok intake agent sees the real failure reason instead of an opaque `http_422` token (#57).
## Regression Risks
| Title | File:Line | Claim | Severity |
|-------|-----------|-------|----------|
| Breaker substitution could mask a real, fixable rejection | `flow_server.py:394`, `do_server.py:349` | **Partially mitigated (536bbb64):** the circuit_open envelope is now a dict-copy of the SDK's envelope with the original rejection nested as `inner` (preserving its kind/message/remediate). The agent sees `circuit_open` at the top level but the underlying rejection survives for ops debugging. The core risk remains: if the breaker trips on a mis-counted storm, the agent stops instead of retrying. | medium |
| Dict-error classification substring fallback → mis-routing risk for unknown codes | `flow_server.py:110`, `do_server.py:94` | **Partially mitigated (536bbb64):** `_classify_dict_error_code` now consults `_DICT_ERROR_CODE_MAP` first (exact match for all known RobocoError codes, closing the AUTHENTICATION_REQUIRED mis-routing bug #161). Only codes NOT in the map fall through to the substring branch. A novel code that accidentally contains `DENIED`/`AUTH`/`PERMISSION` but is semantically different would still mis-route. Risk is now confined to future unknown codes only. | low |
| 404 synthesis assumptions | `flow_server.py:272`, `do_server.py:238` | **Partially mitigated (536bbb64 #61):** a third 404 case was added: a 404 with a *descriptive* `detail` string (not the bare FastAPI default `"Not Found"`) is now surfaced as `not_found`, not `invalid_state`. Residual risk: a future route that returns a bare 404 with no `detail`/`error` field for a real resource-not-found would still synthesize `invalid_state`. The two carve-outs (`error` field → as-is; descriptive `detail``not_found`) cover the known cases. | low |
| `_register_tools` raises at import if manifest missing — local dev breakage | `flow_server.py:965`, `do_server.py:896` | **Mitigated (536bbb64):** `ROBOCO_ALLOW_FULL_TOOLSET` env var added as a dev/test escape hatch that bypasses the `RuntimeError` and registers the full tool set. Production behaviour is unchanged (ROBOCO_ALLOW_FULL_TOOLSET is not set in the orchestrator manifest). The mitigant must not leak into production containers. | low |
| `propose_batch` well-formed filter could silently drop intended drafts | `intake_server.py:146` | **Partially mitigated (536bbb64 #163):** `_draft_title` now accepts `name` as a fallback for `title`, and `_normalize_batch_drafts` normalizes `name`-only drafts onto `title` before posting. Residual risk: a draft using a different key (e.g. `label`) is still dropped silently; the `dropped` count is sent but the CEO may not notice. | low |
| Breaker SDK timeout (2s) may be too tight under load | `flow_server.py:55`, `do_server.py:37` | `_SDK_TIMEOUT=2.0` for the loopback `/verb/attempted` POST. Under container CPU contention the SDK could exceed 2s and the breaker fails open (returns original payload) — re-introducing the unbounded-retry condition the breaker was added to stop. Fail-open is safe but defeats the protection. | low |
| Circuit-breaker forwarding does not pass `task_id` for content tools that lack one | `do_server.py:379` | `body.get("task_id")` is sent to the SDK. Several do-tools (`channels`, `read_messages`, `notify_list`) have no `task_id` — the breaker records `task_id=None`, so the per-verb (not per-task) breaker still works, but any future per-task breaker logic would mis-attribute these. | low |
## Health
The slice is coherent and well-defended: the flow/do servers share a near-identical, heavily-commented breaker/404-synthesis contract (with the duplication acknowledged in comments as a deliberate mirror), the manifest-gated registration is fail-loud and blocks the off-role-verb class, and the `StrList` / dict-error / 404 fixes added in `15effce0` close real observed retry-storm and validation-rejection loops. The main integrity concerns are (a) the duplicated breaker logic across flow/do is a drift hazard — a future change to `_CIRCUIT_REJECTION_KINDS` or classification must be applied in both files or the two servers diverge; (b) CLAUDE.md's server table is stale (3 servers + many tools unlisted), which could mislead a reader into thinking intake/secretary/search are not agent-facing MCP servers; (c) the breaker's fail-open posture is correct but means the protection is only as good as the SDK loopback staying responsive within 2s. No correctness bugs observed; the slice is fit for purpose.
