Bug
Director-surface forwarded engineer runs are downloading an older ward release because the surface exports
WARD_VERSION=v0.463.0, even though the latest ward tag isv0.465.0.Observed
A newly dispatched engineer container logged:
But Forgejo tags show latest is
v0.465.0:The director surface environment contains:
So child engineers inherit the stale version pin and do not get fixes that already landed in newer ward releases. This is especially visible while testing freshly landed agent/bootstrap fixes.
Root cause from code read
cmd/ward/container.godefaults the child container ward version to the host binary version unless--ward-version/WARD_AGENT_VERSIONis set. The entrypoint only resolves latest whenWARD_VERSIONis empty.A director surface, however, is itself an older container with
WARD_VERSIONset. Forwarded dispatches from that surface should not accidentally treat the surface's own bootstrap pin as an operator-requested pin for future sibling engineers.Relevant paths to inspect:
cmd/ward/container.go(buildUpPlan,wardVersion := Version,--ward-versionoverride)cmd/ward/agent_director.go/agent_director_heartbeat.go(propagatingwardVersion)cmd/ward/containerassets/entrypoint.sh(downloadsWARD_VERSION, resolves latest only when empty)--ward-versionExpected behavior

ward agentCorrection: this issue was filed from a wrong premise. The engineer downloading
v0.463.0was not the root cause of the Codex adapter still failing after “latest”; the Codex fix commitde9e61abcc211b716e519e529b9ac673ab707d0eis not onmainor tagv0.465.0.Remote refs checked from the director surface:
So the real active issue is still coilyco-flight-deck/ward#699: the reaper rejected a valid
Fixes #691closing reference, salvaged the Codex fix, and left it offmain. This ticket can be closed as invalid unless a separate stale-version inheritance problem reproduces after theissue-691fix actually lands.Reopened after Kai pointed out the stronger repro: the explicit version override appears to be ignored or overwritten.
Observed dispatch from this surface:
The reservation comment also records:
But Kai reports the engineer container log still shows:
So this is not just accidental inheritance from an unpinned director surface. The dispatch argv and reservation say
v0.465.0, while container bootstrap downloads the surface/defaultv0.463.0. Please trace where the explicit--ward-versionis lost between broker forwarding, Docker env assembly, andcontainerassets/entrypoint.shreadingWARD_VERSION.this may be an ops issue rather than a code issue - dont chase ghosts if it doesnt seem like theres a real bug here
Reproduced again during the 2026-07-09 recovery wave, so this is no longer just a possible ops ghost.
Current facts:
v0.480.0(published 2026-07-09T06:50:56Z).ward v0.474.0.ward#735at 2026-07-09T07:27:21Z recordedward v0.474.0in the reservation comment.ward#735saysworkflow: pr; review summary: skipped ...and treats PR open as done.#773was opened from that run, not merged, and CI failed after the worker already postedWARD-OUTCOME: done.That means the child engineer did not receive the latest
v0.480.0behavior from the repaired lane. The immediate cause is still the version propagation described in this issue: unpinned surface dispatches inherit the stale surface ward version instead of resolving current/latest for the child.This also intersects with
ward#706: plainworkflow prstill means branch + PR, not autonomous merge. But the stale-version propagation is independently real because the child run itself was pinned tov0.474.0afterv0.480.0was published.Next recovery dispatch should run this issue with an explicit
--ward-version v0.480.0so the fix attempt itself does not reproduce the stale launcher problem.— Codex, via
