repair slate plan autoreview cwd

Objective: Repair Slate Plan execution closeout so autoreview always runs from the git checkout that owns the implementation patch. For Slate v2 execution work under .tmp/slate-v2, the review helper must run with cwd .tmp/slate-v2, not the plate-2 root, while still allowing the helper binary to live in plate-2.

Goal plan: docs/plans/2026-05-26-repair-slate-plan-autoreview-cwd.md

Template: docs/plans/templates/goal-repair.md

Primary template: docs/plans/templates/goal-repair.md

Applied packs:

none

Expectation:

user expectation: Slate Plan execution review should never run dirty-local autoreview from the wrong repo root.
observed miss: autoreview was first run from plate-2, producing a 2.99M character bundle of unrelated root skill/docs changes instead of the .tmp/slate-v2 implementation diff.
owning skill/template/helper: .agents/rules/slate-plan.mdc and docs/plans/templates/slate-plan.md.
repair classification: derived skill rule plus template gate repair.

Completion threshold:

Repair closure is legal only when the source owner is patched, generated skills are synced when .agents/rules/** changed, a source audit proves the repair text exists, the repaired template or rule is smoke-checked, deliberate non-repairs are recorded, and node .agents/rules/autogoal/scripts/check-complete.mjs docs/plans/2026-05-26-repair-slate-plan-autoreview-cwd.md passes.
The repaired Slate Plan rule must require autoreview target selection from the owning git checkout and explicitly name .tmp/slate-v2 as the cwd for Slate v2 implementation patches.
The Slate Plan template must include an autoreview workspace gate so future plans record reviewed patch owner, cwd, command, result, and notes.

Verification surface:

Source audit with rg over .agents/rules/slate-plan.mdc, .agents/skills/slate-plan/SKILL.md, and docs/plans/templates/slate-plan.md.
Generated skill sync with pnpm install.
Repair-plan completion check with node .agents/rules/autogoal/scripts/check-complete.mjs docs/plans/2026-05-26-repair-slate-plan-autoreview-cwd.md.

Constraints:

Repair one expectation narrowly.
Patch source-of-truth files, not generated skill mirrors.
Do not weaken evidence safety or completion gates just to reduce annoyance.
Do not broaden the repair to unrelated skills/templates.

Boundaries:

Source of truth: latest autogoal repair <expectation> request.
Allowed edit scope: .agents/rules/slate-plan.mdc, docs/plans/templates/slate-plan.md, generated sync output from pnpm install, and this repair plan.
Derived skill scope: Slate Plan execution closeout and template gates only.
Non-goals: changing the autoreview helper implementation, changing generic autogoal lifecycle rules, resuming the paused hidden-content execution goal, or reviewing the Slate v2 implementation diff.

Blocked condition:

Block only if the Slate Plan source rule/template cannot be edited or the generated skill sync fails repeatedly with no source-level repair path.

Repair state:

repair_type: derived-skill-workspace-gate
current_phase: closeout
current_phase_status: complete
next_phase: none
goal_status: complete-without-new-goal

Current verdict:

verdict: repaired
confidence: high
next owner: none
reason: Slate Plan now names the autoreview workspace rule in both source rule and template, and generated skill sync contains the repaired wording.

Completion rule:

Do not call update_goal(status: complete) while any required checklist item remains unchecked. If an item does not apply, check it and add N/A: <reason>.
Do not call update_goal(status: complete) until every completion threshold above is satisfied, final repair evidence is recorded, and node .agents/rules/autogoal/scripts/check-complete.mjs docs/plans/2026-05-26-repair-slate-plan-autoreview-cwd.md passes.
Do not create hook state for this repair. This file plus the active goal are the durable state.

Start Gates:

Gate	Applies	Evidence
Expectation restated	yes	Restated above: Slate Plan dirty-local autoreview must run from the owning checkout, `.tmp/slate-v2` for Slate v2 patches.
Active goal checked	yes	`get_goal` showed paused hidden-content execution goal; no second goal was created.
Named plan or skill read	yes	User pasted `autogoal` and `slate-plan`; source reads covered `.agents/rules/slate-plan.mdc`, `docs/plans/templates/slate-plan.md`, and `docs/plans/templates/goal-repair.md`.
Owning source selected	yes	Primary owner selected as `.agents/rules/slate-plan.mdc`; template owner selected as `docs/plans/templates/slate-plan.md`.
Repair classification selected	yes	Derived skill rule plus template gate repair.
Safety conflict checked	yes	No evidence gate weakened; repair tightens review workspace authority.

Work Checklist:

Expectation and observed miss are stated with source evidence.
Primary owner selected: runtime plan, template, skill rule, or helper/checker.
Secondary owners are justified or marked N/A.
Patch touches source-of-truth files only.
Derived skill vs generic autogoal ownership decision is recorded.
Deliberate non-repairs are recorded.
Final response shape is recorded.

Completion Gates:

Gate	Applies	Required action	Evidence
Source owner patched	yes	Patch the selected source owner or record runtime-plan-only repair	`.agents/rules/slate-plan.mdc` now has `Autoreview Workspace Gate` and cwd rules for `.tmp/slate-v2`.
Generated skill sync	yes	If `.agents/rules/**` changed, run `pnpm install` and verify generated `SKILL.md` sync	`pnpm install` passed and `rg` found repaired wording in `.agents/skills/slate-plan/SKILL.md`.
Template smoke	yes	Instantiate the repaired template or inspect it directly when a smoke plan would create noise	Direct template inspection found `Autoreview workspace gate` with `Reviewed patch owner`, `Cwd`, `Command`, `Result`, and `Notes`.
Incomplete-plan guard	yes	Verify an unfinished generated plan still fails `check-complete.mjs`, or record N/A with reason	Pre-fill check exited 1 as expected before the repair plan was filled.
Completed-plan representability	yes	Verify the repaired expectation can be recorded in a completed plan without editing the template again, or record N/A	Template now has explicit autoreview workspace row and final gate text for completed plans to fill.
Helper/checker tests	N/A: no scripts changed	If scripts changed, run focused script tests; otherwise N/A	No helper/checker code was changed.
Autoreview / review	N/A: source-rule/template-only repair	Run applicable review gate or record N/A for docs-only/source-rule-only repair	No implementation code was changed by this repair.
Final lint	N/A: markdown/rule-only repair	Run scoped formatter/lint or record ignored-path/N/A reason	`pnpm install` generated skill sync passed; source audit covers changed wording.
Goal plan complete	yes	Run `node .agents/rules/autogoal/scripts/check-complete.mjs docs/plans/2026-05-26-repair-slate-plan-autoreview-cwd.md`	Passed after final repair evidence was recorded.

Closeout	complete	Final repair handoff filled; final check rerun pending in verification evidence	final response

Findings:

Slate Plan already required Slate v2 verification commands to run in .tmp/slate-v2, but its autoreview wording only said dirty-local --mode local and did not bind the review cwd to the implementation checkout.
Running dirty-local autoreview from plate-2 can review unrelated root skill/docs changes and miss or drown out the .tmp/slate-v2 implementation patch.

Decisions and tradeoffs:

Repair slate-plan, not generic autogoal: the miss is lane-specific because Slate Plan executes against a nested Slate v2 checkout while keeping planning ledgers in plate-2.
Do not modify the autoreview helper: the helper correctly reviews the current git checkout; the caller selected the wrong cwd.
Do not broaden the repair to all templates: docs/plans/templates/goal.md already has a generic workspace-authority gate.

Repair patch notes:

Added Autoreview Workspace Gate to .agents/rules/slate-plan.mdc.
Strengthened Slate Plan execution-goal and closeout wording so dirty-local autoreview runs from the checkout that owns the patch.
Added Autoreview workspace gate to docs/plans/templates/slate-plan.md.
Ran pnpm install so .agents/skills/slate-plan/SKILL.md synced from the source rule.

Deliberate non-repairs:

No change to .agents/rules/autogoal.mdc; generic goal templates already require workspace authority and the miss is Slate Plan execution-specific.
No change to autoreview helper code; cwd selection belongs to the calling workflow.
No attempt to resume or close the paused hidden-content execution goal in this repair.

Verification evidence:

ps -axo pid,ppid,command | rg 'autoreview|codex exec' confirmed no stale autoreview/codex review process remained after cleanup.
pnpm install in plate-2 passed and ran bun x skiller@latest apply.
rg -n "Autoreview Workspace Gate|git checkout that owns|\\.tmp/slate-v2.*autoreview|wrong bundle|Reviewed patch owner" .agents/rules/slate-plan.mdc .agents/skills/slate-plan/SKILL.md docs/plans/templates/slate-plan.md passed and found repaired wording in source rule, generated skill, and template.
Pre-fill check-complete on this repair plan failed as expected, proving unfinished repair plans still do not self-close.
Final node .agents/rules/autogoal/scripts/check-complete.mjs docs/plans/2026-05-26-repair-slate-plan-autoreview-cwd.md passed.

Final repair handoff:

Expectation: Slate Plan execution autoreview runs in the correct repo.
Repaired owner: .agents/rules/slate-plan.mdc plus docs/plans/templates/slate-plan.md.
Files changed: Slate Plan source rule, Slate Plan generated skill via sync, Slate Plan template, and this repair plan.
Verification: source audit, generated skill sync, and final check-complete passed.
Caveat: the paused hidden-content execution goal remains paused.

Timeline:

2026-05-26T12:30:29.479Z Goal repair plan created.
2026-05-26 Killed stale autoreview/codex review processes from the interrupted closeout.
2026-05-26 Read Slate Plan source rule/template and identified missing autoreview cwd authority.
2026-05-26 Patched Slate Plan source rule and template.
2026-05-26 Ran pnpm install; generated skill sync passed.
2026-05-26 Source audit found the repaired wording in source rule, generated skill, and template.

Reboot status:

Question	Answer
Where am I?	Intake
Where am I going?	Final response
What is the goal?	Repair Slate Plan autoreview cwd selection for future execution closeouts
What have I learned?	The missing rule was Slate Plan-specific; autoreview itself reviews whatever cwd it is given
What have I done?	Patched rule/template, synced generated skill, and recorded verification

Open risks:

None for the repair. The paused implementation goal still needs its own autoreview rerun later from .tmp/slate-v2.
