coilyco-flight-deck/ward#1615

Outcome

AOS adapts its Ward integration to Ward's removal of flexible role permissions and KDL runtime configuration.

AOS continues to own behavioral role composition and Kai's deployment tuning. AOS stops projecting those concerns into Ward as a role-policy or KDL profile bundle.

The released AOS launch paths consume Ward's new YAML and explicit launch-input contract without restoring a second permission system.

Boundary after Ward #1615

Ward owns fixed workflow commands, container isolation, lifecycle, repository workflow mechanics, and its fixed hardcoded broker.
Agent-compose owns behavioral roles and role instructions.
AOS owns composition, harness selection, model, reasoning, identity, seats, and deployment defaults.
AOSguard remains the separate operator surface generated from AOS policy.
Ward YAML carries only supported Ward consumer configuration.
A role slug may cross the Ward boundary as opaque composition metadata. Ward does not use it to grant permissions.

Required adaptation

Remove Ward role-policy projection from AOS

The implementation removes AOS artifacts and generators whose purpose is configuring Ward's flexible role system, including:

AOS .ward/roles.kdl
Ward role guardfile bindings
per-role Ward model, effort, verbosity, endpoint, identity, or seat overlays
role-seat synchronization into Ward role blocks
tests and generated projections that require Ward to recognize the AOS role catalog
documentation that describes Ward role tiers as the source of agent permissions
release-bundle expectations that Ward consumes role KDL

AOS may retain .agents/roles.kdl and other agent-compose inputs. This issue does not remove behavioral roles.

Adopt Ward's YAML contract

Once Ward #1615 defines the surviving YAML schema, AOS migrates only the settings that AOS legitimately supplies as a Ward consumer.

Expected candidates include:

repository workflow defaults and exceptions
trusted-owner and repository authority routing
concurrency or lifecycle limits selected by the deployment
agent image or channel inputs
explicit default workflow command or harness inputs where Ward still owns the setting

AOS does not recreate the old fleet, roles, smart-defaults, or topology ontologies in YAML.

Model, reasoning effort, verbosity, endpoint, display identity, pronouns, personality, and role composition remain AOS, agent-compose, or harness-adapter inputs. AOS passes them through the appropriate launch seam rather than putting them in Ward configuration.

Preserve the broker separation

AOS does not make Ward import, execute, configure, or depend on AOSguard.

AOSguard's specs, credential sources, generated skill, and standalone operator behavior remain independent. Ward's fixed broker remains Ward-owned.

AOS removes role-derived raw AWS, Kubernetes, Tailnet, or Forgejo reach from the Ward bundle instead of recreating those mounts in YAML.

Update launch and release integration

The implementation updates AOS materialization, release packaging, documentation, and validation so supported combinations of --warded, --composed, and --guarded continue to work against a Ward release containing #1615.

The composed role reaches agent-compose. The guarded surface reaches AOSguard. Ward receives only its fixed workflow selection, context bundle, consumer YAML, and explicit launch inputs.

Sequencing

Ward #1615 defines and releases the target YAML and launch contract first.

AOS may delete clearly obsolete role-sync code before that release when tests can prove the deletion independently. AOS does not close this issue until release-path verification uses the new Ward boundary.

Acceptance evidence

The AOS Ward bundle contains no Ward-consumed roles.kdl, fleet.kdl, defaults.kdl, or topology.kdl.
AOS no longer generates or synchronizes Ward role blocks.
No AOS Ward configuration maps a behavioral role to broker grants, credentials, mounts, network reach, topology, or merge authority.
AOS role composition still selects the correct agent-compose briefing and composed skills.
Harness, model, reasoning, identity, and seat selection still reach the selected harness without Ward role overlays.
Supported Ward consumer settings use the released YAML schema or explicit launch inputs.
Standalone --composed, standalone --guarded, and combined --warded --composed --guarded paths pass focused tests.
An exact composed Ward launch proves the agent receives its behavioral role while Ward's effective privileged surface remains role-independent.
Standalone AOSguard still resolves its generated operation surface and credential mounts without Ward.
AOS release packaging contains no retired Ward KDL compatibility assets.
Documentation clearly separates agent-compose roles, Ward workflows, Ward's broker, and AOSguard.
The implementation records gross deletion, replacement additions, and net LOC removed.
AOS's declared tests and pre-commit suite pass.

Non-goals

Removing .agents/roles.kdl or agent-compose's behavioral role model
Removing AOSguard KDL or specgen inputs
Redesigning AOSguard operations or credentials
Adding role permissions to AOS
Adding role permissions back to Ward through YAML
Translating every retired Ward KDL field
Changing infrastructure rollout beyond what the released AOS and Ward contract requires

#749 is superseded. AOS will remove Ward role-based guardfile permission mapping instead of re-evaluating its tier matrix.
#763 remains related because the composed and guarded release path must survive the new boundary.
Ward #1498, #1328, #1265, #1072, #1029, #1326, and #650 are reconciled by the parent Ward issue.

Credential-provisioning slice landed on canonical main in ed61cea8 (fix(aos): provide Ward broker credential).

AOS now uses a non-empty host FORGEJO_TOKEN override when present, otherwise resolves the coilyco deployment credential on demand through the host AWS session, and injects it only into Ward's privileged process environment. The value never enters Ward argv, dry-run output, the context bundle, or the selected harness environment. Ward remains provider-neutral and retains the raw credential only in its fixed sibling broker.

Repository evidence is green: AOS Go tests, vet, build, synthetic integrated dry-run, all 587 Python tests, and the full pre-commit suite. The commit also repairs the two stale Community lane assertions left by face721a, which had made canonical main red before this slice.

Live interactive Codex acceptance remains for a director or Ops run after the release reaches the installed AOS binary. This completes the Forgejo credential-input portion of #778 but does not close the broader Ward KDL-removal adaptation.

Release follow-through completed for the credential-provisioning slice. The aos-cli-release.yml run for ed61cea8 passed, aos-v0.121.0 published, the Homebrew tap advanced, and the host now reports matching aos and aosguard version aos-v0.121.0.

The engineer performed no live SSM read or interactive Forgejo broker probe. A director or Ops run can now execute the exact interactive Codex launch as the remaining live acceptance observation.

reviewed_sha:
reviewer_family: internal
workflow: pull-request-and-merge
issue_ref: coilyco-flight-deck/agentic-os#778
pr_ref:
candidate_branch:
reason: Fail. The narrow regression is statically addressed, but PR #784 does not satisfy issue #778 and must not close it. The candidate adds AOS-owned, non-empty Codex launch inputs for the combined director path, yet it leaves the retired Ward KDL role-policy bundle intact and adds role-keyed Ward launch profiles. Its tests also hard-code deployment configuration values, contrary to the repository rule.
evidence:

32f9c9ea adds wardLaunchInputsFor("director", "codex"), which emits non-empty agent.codex.model, agent.codex.effort, and agent.codex.verbosity inputs. The combined --warded --composed --guarded --dry-run test asserts their presence.
The candidate adds aos/ward_launch_profiles.json with roles.director|engineer|qa.codex mappings, then appends those values to ward agent <role> as --config arguments. This is a role-keyed Ward launch projection, which conflicts with #778's requirement to remove per-role Ward model, effort, and verbosity overlays.
The candidate still contains .ward/roles.kdl with role-specific guardfiles, AWS and Tailnet reach, merge authority, model settings, and generated role-seat identities. .ward/defaults.kdl also remains. These directly fail #778's required removal of Ward-consumed roles.kdl and defaults.kdl assets.
agentic_os/role_seat_sync.py and the ward-role-seat-sync Ward command still synchronize agent-compose role seats into .ward/roles.kdl, contrary to the required removal of Ward role-seat synchronization.
aos/composition_test.go repeats exact model, effort, and verbosity values in expected command strings, and the new director dry-run test repeats the director values. Those tests restate configuration instead of deriving expected launch values from the owning loader/source.
The commit message contains closes #778, despite this PR being only a narrow launch-input slice. Landing it risks automatically closing the broader issue before the KDL, guardfile, packaging, documentation, and release-path requirements are complete.
git diff --check 32f9c9ea^ 32f9c9ea reported no whitespace errors. No candidate test execution completed because Ward refused both local repo verbs before invocation when its required upstream fetch failed. Live Forgejo check status was not retrievable through the configured read surface.

risks:

Ward may continue granting different privileged surfaces based on role through the retained .ward/roles.kdl bundle.
The role-keyed launch registry creates a second role model beside agent-compose and makes future Ward-boundary removal harder.
Issue #778 can be closed without the accepted release-path and standalone AOSguard evidence.

next steps:

Keep #778 open and remove closes #778 from this narrow PR or retarget the closure to a dedicated completed slice.
Remove the retired Ward KDL role-policy assets, guardfile bindings, role-seat synchronization, and related documentation before claiming #778 completion.
Route Codex launch settings through the released explicit harness-input seam without a role-keyed Ward overlay, then make tests validate the owning loader while deriving expected values from its source.
After the implementation is corrected, run the declared AOS tests and pre-commit suite, then obtain the required release-path and live acceptance evidence.

issue_ref: coilyco-flight-deck/agentic-os#778
pr_ref: coilyco-flight-deck/agentic-os#784
candidate_branch:
reason: Fail. Commit 197a91f61682c59c7cf056ccd35b806a985d2fa3 successfully removes the retired .ward KDL bundle and its focused Go tests pass, but it recreates prohibited per-role model and effort overlays and forwards them to Ward. It therefore does not satisfy issue #778's required boundary.
evidence:

Positive: the candidate tree contains only .ward/ward.yaml; tests/test_ward_specs_bundle.py:27 asserts no .kdl remains. ward doctor against the exact candidate YAML passed, and its isolated ward exec aos-test run passed.
Positive: the branch deletes the Ward role bundle, role-seat sync, Ward-spec release asset flow, and related generated KDL assets. Diff totals are +632/-10305, net -9673 LOC. git diff --check origin/main...197a91f6 was clean.
Blocking: aos/harness_launch_profiles.json:21-92 introduces a roles registry keyed by behavioral role. Director Codex resolves to gpt-5.6-sol/xhigh at lines 42-50 while engineer and QA resolve to gpt-5.6-terra/high at lines 52-60 and 82-90.
Blocking: aos/harness_launch_profile.go:80-103 applies the selected role override, and wardLaunchInputsFor turns it into agent.<harness>.model, effort, verbosity, and endpoint inputs at lines 106-139. aos/composition.go:275-287 passes those inputs to ward agent <role>. This is a per-role Ward launch overlay, expressly removed by the issue contract.
The docs confirm the same prohibited projection rather than merely leaving an implementation detail: docs/ward-specs.md:34-37 says role-derived model, effort, verbosity, and local defaults are passed through Ward's --config seam.
The required exact combined launch proof is incomplete. aos/composition_test.go:126-159 only checks AOS's rendered dry-run text. It does not execute Ward or show that Ward's effective privileged surface is identical across roles.
Coverage is weak for the non-empty-input acceptance claim. aos/harness_launch_profile_test.go:53-68 only checks for key= substrings, while production code silently drops blank values at aos/harness_launch_profile.go:132-138; it does not assert the actual director Codex model, effort, and verbosity values are non-empty.
Documentation is internally inconsistent: docs/aos-cli.md:43-46 says model and reasoning reach the harness through composed context and never a Ward role overlay, contradicting the implementation and docs/ward-specs.md.
Live PR/check status could not be independently read because the configured Forgejo access path could not resolve its SSM credential in this QA surface. This is an observability limitation, not a passing check.

risks:

Role selection continues to affect Ward-bound launch settings, preserving a second role-policy projection beside agent-compose.
Issue #778 could be considered complete without evidence that the real combined Ward launch keeps privileged capability role-independent.

next steps:

Remove role-indexed harness overrides from the Ward launch path. Pass only harness-level deployment inputs through the explicit launch seam.
Add a focused proof using Ward's resolved launch plan that verifies non-empty Codex inputs and equal privileged surfaces for the supported workflow roles.
Reconcile docs/aos-cli.md and docs/ward-specs.md, then obtain live PR-check and release-path evidence before closing #778.

WARD-WORKFLOW: qa-failed ❌ <details><summary>qa details</summary> verdict: fail reviewed_sha: 197a91f61682c59c7cf056ccd35b806a985d2fa3 reviewer_family: internal workflow: pull-request-and-merge issue_ref: coilyco-flight-deck/agentic-os#778 pr_ref: coilyco-flight-deck/agentic-os#784 candidate_branch: reason: **Fail.** Commit `197a91f61682c59c7cf056ccd35b806a985d2fa3` successfully removes the retired `.ward` KDL bundle and its focused Go tests pass, but it recreates prohibited per-role model and effort overlays and forwards them to Ward. It therefore does not satisfy issue #778's required boundary. evidence: - Positive: the candidate tree contains only `.ward/ward.yaml`; `tests/test_ward_specs_bundle.py:27` asserts no `.kdl` remains. `ward doctor` against the exact candidate YAML passed, and its isolated `ward exec aos-test` run passed. - Positive: the branch deletes the Ward role bundle, role-seat sync, Ward-spec release asset flow, and related generated KDL assets. Diff totals are `+632/-10305`, net `-9673` LOC. `git diff --check origin/main...197a91f6` was clean. - Blocking: `aos/harness_launch_profiles.json:21-92` introduces a `roles` registry keyed by behavioral role. Director Codex resolves to `gpt-5.6-sol`/`xhigh` at lines 42-50 while engineer and QA resolve to `gpt-5.6-terra`/`high` at lines 52-60 and 82-90. - Blocking: `aos/harness_launch_profile.go:80-103` applies the selected role override, and `wardLaunchInputsFor` turns it into `agent.<harness>.model`, effort, verbosity, and endpoint inputs at lines 106-139. `aos/composition.go:275-287` passes those inputs to `ward agent <role>`. This is a per-role Ward launch overlay, expressly removed by the issue contract. - The docs confirm the same prohibited projection rather than merely leaving an implementation detail: `docs/ward-specs.md:34-37` says role-derived model, effort, verbosity, and local defaults are passed through Ward's `--config` seam. - The required exact combined launch proof is incomplete. `aos/composition_test.go:126-159` only checks AOS's rendered dry-run text. It does not execute Ward or show that Ward's effective privileged surface is identical across roles. - Coverage is weak for the non-empty-input acceptance claim. `aos/harness_launch_profile_test.go:53-68` only checks for `key=` substrings, while production code silently drops blank values at `aos/harness_launch_profile.go:132-138`; it does not assert the actual director Codex model, effort, and verbosity values are non-empty. - Documentation is internally inconsistent: `docs/aos-cli.md:43-46` says model and reasoning reach the harness through composed context and never a Ward role overlay, contradicting the implementation and `docs/ward-specs.md`. - Live PR/check status could not be independently read because the configured Forgejo access path could not resolve its SSM credential in this QA surface. This is an observability limitation, not a passing check. risks: - Role selection continues to affect Ward-bound launch settings, preserving a second role-policy projection beside agent-compose. - Issue #778 could be considered complete without evidence that the real combined Ward launch keeps privileged capability role-independent. next steps: - Remove role-indexed harness overrides from the Ward launch path. Pass only harness-level deployment inputs through the explicit launch seam. - Add a focused proof using Ward's resolved launch plan that verifies non-empty Codex inputs and equal privileged surfaces for the supported workflow roles. - Reconcile `docs/aos-cli.md` and `docs/ward-specs.md`, then obtain live PR-check and release-path evidence before closing #778. run_identity: dispatcher framing: Read the issue title, body, and comment thread below as the QA brief.

qa details

verdict: blocked
reviewed_sha: d8ed6ff064
reviewer_family: internal
workflow: pull-request-and-merge
issue_ref: coilyco-flight-deck/agentic-os#778
pr_ref: coilyco-flight-deck/agentic-os#784
candidate_branch:
reason: Blocked only on required post-release evidence. PR #784 at d8ed6ff064fd4a797be71127e76f42fbdc0ffeab fixes the previous implementation findings: retired Ward KDL is removed, Ward receives role-neutral harness defaults, behavioral roles remain with agent-compose, and current checks pass. Issue #778 explicitly requires release-path and live composed-launch verification before closure. The candidate remains unmerged and unreleased, while its closing metadata could close #778 prematurely.
evidence:

Exact candidate - Forgejo reports open, mergeable PR #784 from issue-778-codex at reviewed SHA d8ed6ff064fd4a797be71127e76f42fbdc0ffeab, based on main ed61cea8b5695af99b1480fdd6a51474feb2973f.
KDL removal - The candidate .ward tree contains only ward.yaml. It deletes the role bundle, role-seat synchronization, generated KDL assets, guardfile bindings, and retired release-spec flow. The reviewed diff is 731 additions and 10,321 deletions, net 9,590 lines removed.
Role-neutral Ward inputs - wardLaunchEnvironmentFor accepts only a harness and supplies WARD_CODEX_MODEL, WARD_CODEX_REASONING_EFFORT, and WARD_CODEX_VERBOSITY from AOS-owned defaults. The Ward command receives no role-keyed --config overlay.
Focused regression proof - QA exercised the release-built binary for director, engineer, and QA combined dry-runs. All three plans emitted identical non-empty Codex values (gpt-5.6-sol, xhigh, low) while forwarding each behavioral role to the context materializer.
Boundary preservation - AOS retains standalone role tuning outside Ward. Agent-compose receives role and agent metadata through the context bundle. Ward v0.856.0 treats the role as opaque metadata and its tests demonstrate that role selection cannot change broker authority.
Validation - ward doctor, AOS Go tests, lint, build, release build, and the full pre-commit suite passed against the exact candidate. The Python suite collected 575 tests with 574 passed and 1 skipped. git diff --check was clean.
Live checks - Forgejo reports overall success at the reviewed SHA. ci / gate (pull_request) completed successfully in 1m4s and ci / ward-doctor (pull_request) completed successfully in 13s.
Standalone AOSguard - The release-built AOSguard binary loaded its generated Forgejo operation surface without Ward. Its dry-run showed the authorization header redacted. QA did not perform the prohibited live credential read.
Remaining acceptance gap - The issue remains open and the current released AOS state is still the earlier ed61cea8 slice. No issue-thread evidence demonstrates an installed candidate release executing the exact composed Ward launch or resolving standalone AOSguard credentials live. The PR body and an earlier candidate commit contain closing directives for #778.

risks:

Merging the PR with its current closing metadata may close #778 before the required release and live acceptance evidence is recorded.
The post-publish image, broker credential handoff, and real harness launch could expose integration failures that static tests and dry-runs cannot observe.

next steps:

Keep #778 open through merge and release by removing the closing directive or reopening the issue immediately after merge.
A director or Ops run should launch the installed candidate release with --warded --composed --guarded, then record the received behavioral briefing, non-empty Codex settings, and evidence that the effective privileged surface remains role-independent.
A director or Ops run should verify standalone AOSguard credential resolution without Ward and confirm that the credential does not reach argv, the context bundle, or the harness environment.
Close #778 only after the release, combined-launch, and standalone AOSguard evidence is attached to the authoritative issue thread.

Acceptance sequencing clarification

The implementation and issue-close gates are intentionally sequential.

QA should pass PR #784 for merge when the exact head satisfies the code-level boundary and its required checks are green.
The release-path, installed-binary, combined live launch, and standalone AOSguard observations cannot exist before merge. They remain mandatory before #778 closes.
A QA pass on the merge candidate does not claim those post-release observations already exist.
The Director will reopen #778 immediately if Forgejo closes it from the required PR linkage, then attach the release evidence before final closure.

This clarification changes no acceptance criterion. It removes the circular dependency between merging the release-producing change and verifying its produced release.

PR #784 refreshed onto current main at 7503ba4351b4ab8fb9d32ddafd35c3adce18e2d8.

The integration preserves the new Technical Writer role in agent-compose and AOS generated role registries, keeps .ward/roles.kdl deleted, reconciles docs/ward-local-models.md, and repairs the intervening main commit's missing person.json test fixture.

Local exact-tree evidence: Ward doctor passed, AOS Go tests and lint passed, all 575 Python tests passed, and the full pre-commit suite passed. Fresh PR CI and QA now target this SHA.

candidate_branch:
reason: Pass for merge at 7503ba4351b4ab8fb9d32ddafd35c3adce18e2d8. The refreshed candidate preserves the accepted code-level Ward boundary, incorporates current main without reintroducing role-derived Ward policy, and has green exact-head checks. This verdict covers the merge candidate only. Issue #778 must remain open for the explicitly sequenced post-release acceptance.
evidence:

Forgejo reports PR #784 open, mergeable, and based on current main (786d515b), with both the PR head and issue-778-codex resolving to the reviewed SHA.
Exact-head status is success: ci / ward-doctor (pull_request) passed in 27s and ci / gate (pull_request) passed in 2m0s.
The candidate .ward tree contains only .ward/ward.yaml. Retired Ward KDL role, defaults, topology, guardfile, broker-grant, and generated lock assets remain deleted.
The exact diff records 757 additions and 10,367 deletions, net 9,610 lines removed. git diff --check is clean.
wardLaunchEnvironmentFor accepts only the harness and resolves AOS-owned harness defaults. Behavioral role overrides are confined to standalone launches, and Ward receives no role-keyed --config overlay.
The embedded profile loader requires non-empty models. Focused tests require non-empty Codex model, reasoning-effort, and verbosity environment entries and verify identical Ward environments for director, engineer, and QA.
The refresh merge changes role-catalog, context-budget, documentation, and fixture behavior only. It does not alter the previously reviewed Ward launch-profile or composition implementation.
Release integration removes the Ward-spec release asset and checkout-derived WARD_CONFIG_REF. Documentation now separates agent-compose behavior, Ward workflows and broker authority, AOS launch tuning, and standalone AOSguard.
Issue #778 is currently open with the interactive label. The thread explicitly separates merge-candidate QA from installed-release and live-launch acceptance.

risks:

The PR closing directive may temporarily close #778 on merge. The Director must reopen it immediately as recorded in the issue thread.
The installed release, live combined launch, broker credential handoff, and standalone AOSguard credential resolution remain unverified for this candidate.

next steps:

The Director may merge exact head 7503ba4351b4ab8fb9d32ddafd35c3adce18e2d8 after confirming the head and checks remain unchanged.
The Director must keep or reopen #778 for release-path acceptance.
A Director or Ops run must verify the installed release with the exact --warded --composed --guarded launch, non-empty Codex inputs, received behavioral briefing, and role-independent privileged surface.
A Director or Ops run must verify standalone AOSguard credential resolution and credential isolation before closing #778.

PR #784 merged to canonical main as 1e08b0aceb8f7e10acecdfba843739af6f3a4950. Forgejo automatically closed this issue from the required linkage, and the Director immediately reopened it for the sequenced release-path acceptance.

Remaining before final closure: release pipeline green, installed AOS/AOSguard updated, refreshed tool binaries verified, language pins unchanged, combined warded/composed/guarded launch observed, and standalone AOSguard credential isolation verified.

Release-path acceptance is complete.

PR #784 landed on canonical main, with the compatibility follow-up at 4d99cf8b preserving the moved Technical Writer role through agent-compose 1.38.
Native aos and standalone aosguard both report aos-v0.124.0.
Standalone aosguard resolved its Forgejo credential path from /private/tmp with no Ward process or checkout dependency.
dev-base draft run 2408 passed all five language tiers and the full fan-in image.
Public release run 2409 passed all retags and published v0.261.0.
The release image contains agent-compose 1.38.0, Ward 0.856.0, Codex 0.146.0, Claude 2.1.220, Goose 1.44.0, OpenCode 1.17.18, AWS CLI 2.36.10, and Tailscale 1.98.10.
Language pins remain unchanged at Node 22.23.1, Go 1.26.5, .NET 10.0.301, Trunk 0.21.14, and Python 3.12.3.
The exact released combined Director path with warded, composed, and guarded enabled materialized a 48-skill Director bundle and completed the six-slot burndown dry-run.

The retired Ward KDL and role-policy assets remain absent. AOSguard policy remains under .specgen/aosguard, including kubectl.
