A director tried to work around the Opencode smoke-test bug by launching with WARD_SMOKE_TEST_SKIP=1, but the brokered run still executed the in-container smoke test.\n\nObserved on 2026-07-22:\n\n- Command shape used from the director surface: WARD_SMOKE_TEST_SKIP=1 warded engineer ... --harness opencode ....\n- The accepted AOS dispatch for coilyco-flight-deck/agentic-os#617 reached container engineer-opencode-agentic-os-617.\n- The container log still ran bootstrap prelaunch check start: opencode and failed in ollama smoke test.\n- There was no ollama smoke test skipped (WARD_SMOKE_TEST_SKIP=1) log line, so the env did not survive into the container.\n\nExpected behavior:\n\n- If WARD_SMOKE_TEST_SKIP=1 is the documented bypass for launch smoke tests, brokered dispatch should either carry it through explicitly or reject it with a clear message that the env override is unsupported from a director surface.\n- The supported bypass path should be documented and test-covered for host-direct and brokered launches.\n- If env passthrough is intentionally constrained, provide an explicit CLI/config flag for this bypass and keep it visible in the forwarded command/log.\n\nThis blocks workarounds for #1503 and adds to the current hard-stop state tracked at #1502.
