Summary

  • Adds agent-relay replies <agent> for reading inbound worker DM replies with full text, chronological output, JSON support, --since, --unread, --mark-read, and --as options.
  • Updates DM inbox/history rendering so worker replies are sender-attributed, untruncated, and include direction metadata for scripts.
  • Changes default send --from behavior to $AGENT_RELAY_ORCHESTRATOR_NAME or orchestrator, and updates docs/skill guidance for headless orchestrators.
  • Adds issue Headless Orchestrator Friction Report - Reading Worker DM Replies #860 transcript coverage plus focused messaging tests and docs mirrors.
  • Includes workflow runtime/typecheck support needed for the generated Ricky workflows and local SDK workflow bootstrap.

Follow-up Fixes

  • Added the new replies command to the bootstrap command inventory so src/cli/bootstrap.test.ts matches the registered CLI surface.
  • Fixed the broken in-document skill anchor reported by CodeRabbit.
  • Sanitized changed trajectory records and index entries so repo-local absolute paths use <repo-root> instead of developer or CI filesystem paths.
  • Aligned pr_url verification docs with the allowed verification type list in both workflow-writing skill mirrors.
  • Gated the implementation-reconcile sample on the runtime and adapter implementation steps so it cannot run before implementation finishes.

Validation

  • git diff --check
  • npx prettier --write .agents/skills/writing-agent-relay-workflows/SKILL.md .claude/skills/writing-agent-relay-workflows/SKILL.md src/cli/bootstrap.test.ts
  • npm run build:packages
  • npx vitest run src/cli/bootstrap.test.ts (3 tests passed)
  • Ricky workflow 533672624395ffc553205b0f: 16 passed, 0 failed, 0 skipped; final signoff emitted MASTER_EXECUTOR_RESULT_READY.
  • Final hard validation from the Ricky run:
    • npm run typecheck
    • npx vitest run src/cli/commands/messaging.test.ts tests/fixtures/issue-860-transcript.test.ts
    • Vitest result: 2 files passed, 61 tests passed.
  • Generated child workflow dry-runs were reported as passing by the review step.

E2E validation

Automated workflow validation passed against the local code and tests. A live-broker CLI transcript is still required before merge if reviewers enforce the §6.2 acceptance item from the spec.

Closes #860

Final Prompt

Address PR comments and fix failing CI for #861.

Final Plan

  1. Inspect live PR comments and failed checks.
  2. Fix valid review findings with minimal branch changes.
  3. Reproduce and fix the CI test failure locally.
  4. Format, validate, commit, push to the existing PR branch, and update the PR description.

Adds specs/reading-worker-dm-replies.md describing the CLI changes
needed so a headless orchestrator can read full worker DM replies in
one command. Bundles unrelated working-tree changes to skill docs,
trajectories index, and prpm.lock.

In @.agents/skills/writing-agent-relay-workflows/SKILL.md:
- Line 1404: The link referencing the in-document anchor
"#chat-native-coordination-recipes" is broken; fix it by either adding a
matching heading titled "Chat-Native Coordination Recipes" (or an explicit HTML
anchor with id="chat-native-coordination-recipes") somewhere in SKILL.md, or
change the link target to the actual existing heading id that covers chat-native
coordination recipes; update the fragment in the table row containing "Pick a
[Chat-Native Coordination Recipe](`#chat-native-coordination-recipes`)" so it
matches the real heading/anchor (search for existing headings like "Chat Native
Coordination" or similar to pick the correct id).

In `@specs/reading-worker-dm-replies.md`:
- Around line 72-73: The spec currently contradicts itself about the --mark-read
toggle (one place says it's out of scope while another includes it in the new
command); reconcile by choosing one behavior and updating both occurrences to
match: either remove all references to --mark-read from the new command
definition and related tests, or explicitly document --mark-read as part of the
command and update the command usage, examples, and test expectations
accordingly; ensure you update the single authoritative declaration for the
command and all mentions of --mark-read to keep the spec consistent (search for
the token "--mark-read" and the new command section to locate where to edit).
- Line 35: Multiple fenced code blocks in the markdown (in
specs/reading-worker-dm-replies.md) are missing language identifiers causing
MD040 lint errors; update each triple-backtick fence to include an appropriate
language tag (e.g., bash, text, json, ts, jsonc) for the examples at the noted
locations (around the shown fence and the ranges 78, 111, 118, 136, 168, 194) so
every ``` becomes ```bash or ```json etc. matching the block content to satisfy
the markdown linter.

- Line 39: The doc currently presents the "agent-relay replies" command (shown
as "Read worker DM replies" / `agent-relay replies Worker1`) as available now
but the implementation is deferred; update every occurrence (notably the
mentions around the examples and sections currently listing `agent-relay
replies`) to clearly gate the feature as "planned / after `#860`" or change the
wording to present a working alternative as primary and add a short note saying
the `agent-relay replies` command is not yet implemented and will be available
after `#860`; ensure the phrase `agent-relay replies` is updated consistently in
all listed sections (the examples and descriptive lines called out in the
comment) so readers aren’t led to try a non-existent command.

- Line 710: The docs contain contradictory guidance: an example showing
verification: { type: 'pr_url', value: 'owner/repo' } while the allowed-types
list only names exit_code, output_contains, file_exists, and custom; fix by
making them consistent—either remove the pr_url example (update the example near
the verification block to use one of
exit_code/output_contains/file_exists/custom) or add pr_url to the canonical
allowed-types list and document its expected shape (verification.type = 'pr_url'
with value containing owner/repo or full URL and any validation rules). Update
both the example and the allowed-types section so they reference the same set
(symbols to find: verification, pr_url, exit_code, output_contains, file_exists,
custom).
- Around line 1301-1304: The step implementation-reconcile currently only
depends on 'context', allowing it to run before implementations complete; update
its dependsOn array in the .step('implementation-reconcile', { ... }) definition
to include the implementation-producing steps (e.g., add
'runtime-implementation' and 'adapter-implementation' alongside 'context') so
the reconcile step is gated to run after those implementations finish.

189-195: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Final acceptance gate contradicts the “blocked-no-fail” policy.

This gate fails the workflow when BLOCKED_NO_COMMIT.md exists, but earlier guidance says blocked workflows should skip commit/PR without ending FAILED. Please align this example (and matching later examples) to a non-failing blocked path.

Suggested doc fix
 .step('acceptance-after-review', {
   type: 'deterministic',
   dependsOn: ['codex-fix-final'],
-  command: 'test ! -f .workflow-artifacts/my-workflow/BLOCKED_NO_COMMIT.md && echo ACCEPTANCE_OK',

+  echo BLOCKED_SKIP_SHIP
+else
+  echo ACCEPTANCE_OK

Addresses field-reported headless-orchestrator friction (follow-on to #860):

- history: channel reads (history --to '#channel') and the --from
  cross-context view no longer truncate at ~200 chars and are sorted
  chronologically (oldest->newest, latest N). Multi-line messages render
  under an indented header, matching the DM transcript path. Substantive
  evidence (diffs, grep counts, GO/NO-GO) is now fully readable.
- who: replace fabricated status:'ONLINE' / lastSeen:now() with real
  broker /api/metrics data. who --json now emits structured, pollable
  records { name, cli, status, pid, uptimeSecs, memoryBytes } so an
  orchestrator has a machine-readable health signal instead of scraping
  the worker TTY. No PTY parsing; no broker/protocol changes.
- skill (running-headless-orchestrator, .claude + .agents mirrors):
  document that the spawning orchestrator is not a registered relaycast
  agent (mcp__relaycast__message_* fails with 'Not registered'); CLI is
  the supported path; recommend --json for full untruncated parseable
  output across replies/history/inbox/who.
- spec: §10 addendum documenting the expanded scope.
- tests: channel no-truncation + chronological ordering; who --json
  with/without broker metrics. typecheck + vitest green (71 tests).

Review found two gaps in cccc665: formatUptimeSecs (new exported helper
with h/m/s + negative/NaN/Infinity guards) had no direct unit test, and
the who command's new PID/UPTIME human-table path was unasserted.

- formatting.test.ts: unit-test formatUptimeSecs across s/m/h, fractional
  flooring, and invalid inputs
- agent-management-listing.test.ts: assert the who human table renders
  real pid + formatted uptime, status 'online', and no 'LAST SEEN' column

No production code change. typecheck + vitest green (74 tests).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Independent review (subagent + author) of PR 861 surfaced two real
correctness bugs that undermine the headless-orchestrator reading loop
this PR exists to fix:

- P1: `history --from <agent>` (cross-context, no --to) sliced the raw
  relaycast feed with .slice(0, limit) BEFORE sorting, silently keeping
  the OLDEST messages and dropping the newest — the opposite of the
  channel branch contract and of spec §10's claim that this view is
  'de-truncated the same way'. Now sorts chronologically and keeps the
  most recent `limit`, matching the channel branch.
- P1: `replies <agent> --unread` with zero unread and no per-message
  unread flags hit `messages.slice(-0)` === `slice(0)` and printed the
  ENTIRE read history instead of nothing. Now guards unreadCount > 0
  and returns [] otherwise.
- Hardening: clamp `--limit` to >= 1 so a negative value can't turn
  slice(-limit) into a drop-first-N (Math.max(1, parsed) || 50).

Regression tests added for both bugs; each was verified to fail without
its fix and pass with it. typecheck + vitest green (77 tests).

Reliability spec §P2: agents:logs was a raw ANSI/cursor/spinner TTY dump
requiring sed gymnastics to read. Adds:

- toPlainLogLines(): strips ANSI/cursor/control escapes, drops
  escape-only lines, collapses consecutive redraw frames, trims the
  file-terminating newline (interior blanks preserved).
- agents:logs --plain  -> greppable line-oriented text, no header.
- agents:logs --json   -> { agent, file, lines[] } sanitized snapshot.
- --follow honors --plain (streamed lines sanitized + de-duped).
- default view unchanged (raw, with header).

Tests: toPlainLogLines unit cases + command --plain/--json/default.
Isolated suite green (21), typecheck clean. Other reliability spec items
filed as #892 (P0 delivery), #893 (P1 lifecycle events), #894 (P3
watchdog), #895 (P2 MCP register).

Combined work (cursor mine, read-identity/sanitize refactor authored in
parallel by the maintainer; committed together as they share these files):

- replies/history --since now accepts a message-id cursor in addition to
  time: returns only messages strictly AFTER that id; an unknown/rolled-off
  cursor returns nothing rather than replaying history. Wired in DM
  history, channel history, and replies (resolveSince/sliceAfterCursor).
  Addresses reliability spec P1 stale-replay. Regression tests added and
  mutation-checked (reverting the wiring fails the new test).
- read-identity hardening: --as/inbox --agent restricted to authorized
  identities (getAllowedReadAgentNames/isAuthorizedReadIdentity/
  reportUnauthorizedReadIdentity); untrusted summary/scalar fields
  sanitized before logging (sanitizeForTerminal/Line).

messaging suite 104 passed; formatting suite green; typecheck clean for
these files. (run-script.* left uncommitted — separate in-flight work
with its own typecheck errors.)
