ward agent🛫 ward pre-flight: NO-GO
ward agent claude headlessran a pre-flight feasibility read on this issue before detaching a fire-and-forget run, and the agent judged it NO-GO - it should not be carried unattended until a human weighs in.No container was launched. Review the issue (clarify the scope, resolve the unknown, or split it), then re-dispatch -
ward agent claude headless <ref> --no-preflightskips this gate once you've decided it's good to go.full pre-flight read
The core unknown is how a bot's "agent name" gets resolved at ward entrypoint time and what the git name/email should concretely look like - the self-naming scheme (
claude-<os>-<hostname>-<tag>-<pronouns>) is per-session and tag-derived, so it's not obviously available as a stable env value at container boot, and the issue gives no target format for the email prefix. The issue text itself hedges ("probably needs an entrypoint sh step"), meaning even the author hasn't pinned the mechanism, so I'd be inventing both the name-derivation source and the git-config wiring with no spec to check against. That's a genuine design fork where a wrong guess bakes a wrong identity into every bot commit - costly and externally visible once it lands on canonical main. This belongs in agentic-os (ward lives here), so it's the right repo, just underspecified.NO-GO: no description and an unspecified agent-name-to-git-identity mapping - a human should pin the name source and email format before an unattended run.

ward agentLanded this from the agentic-os side as a
SessionStartgit-identity stamp baked into the dev-base image: agitidentitymode onagent-name.shthat setsgit config --global user.nameto the agent's self-name, wired through the policy-tiermanaged-settings.json.The interesting part was the tension the pre-flight NO-GO flagged. The title asks for the agent name as both git name and email prefix, but ward's own
agent-attribution.md(post-dating this issue) makes the email load-bearing: Forgejo links a commit to thecoilyco-opsaccount by exact email match, so a per-agent email prefix would quietly break the avatar/account link. So I split the difference on purpose: name = agent, email untouched (falls through to the bot at--system). A warded commit now readsclaude-linux-<host>-<tag>-she-her <coilyco-ops@coilysiren.me>- named per agent, still account-linked.The other thing that clicked: SessionStart is genuinely the earliest the full name exists, since the distinguishing tag comes from the
session_idthe entrypoint can't know at bring-up. So the late hook isn't a workaround, it's the only place this can live in agentic-os.Fairly confident in the result - tests cover the name stamp, the untouched email, and idempotency, and the full suite plus pre-commit are green. Two honest rough edges worth a follow-up: this only covers the claude harness (it rides claude's policy settings), so codex/goose still need ward's
WARD_GIT_NAMEknob, and the truly cross-harness home for this is ward's entrypoint, which is out of scope from this container. If a single cross-harness stamp is wanted, that's a small ward issue to file.
