ci(carl-smoke): extend probe to actually exercise chat → AI reply E2E#1000
Merged
Conversation
Per Joel's "100% free OOTB on MacBook Air on up, canary e2e working
from curl, Carl's case" — the existing smoke probe only validates the
page renders, not that a chat actually gets an AI reply. That's the
true Carl-impact gate: if Carl types "hello" + gets nothing, the
install isn't shippable, regardless of whether /health returned 200.
This extends the smoke script with a 4th phase:
4. End-to-end chat:
- Locate jtag binary (3 search paths)
- Send a unique probe message to #general
- Detect #994's "no listener" warning → exit 6 (distinct failure)
- Poll chat/export for an AI reply (default 90s timeout)
- On reply: report latency in PASS banner
- On timeout: list root-cause diagnostic commands per #964/#980 series
Exit codes (extends 0-3 from existing):
4 — chat/send command failed (system not ready for chat at all)
5 — no AI reply within timeout (the main Carl-blocker shape — silent AI)
6 — chat/send accepted but reported NO PERSONAS (#994 warning)
— distinct from 5: "no AI" vs "AI didn't respond"
CARL_CHAT_TIMEOUT_SEC env override (default 90s) for slow first-runs
where DMR is cold-loading the persona model.
The diagnostic message on exit 5 lists the post-#980 fix points so a
future regression has an obvious starting checklist:
- #997's 'local' default routing (cloud fallback dropped)
- DMR running (Docker Desktop 4.62+ check from install.sh)
- GPU EP cfg (#985/#991 fixed broken cfg gates)
- Persona model pulled into DMR
- NEW-A SIGABRT (tracked upstream as ggml-org/llama.cpp#22593)
Now CI's carl-install-smoke gate proves the OOTB chain works
end-to-end, not just up to the page render.

Per Joel: "100% free OOTB on MacBook Air on up, canary e2e working from curl, Carl case." Page-render gate is necessary but not sufficient — the actual Carl-impact target is "chat with AI works." Adds Phase 4 to carl-install-smoke.sh: send a probe message, poll chat/export for an AI reply, fail loudly with diagnostic root-cause checklist if silent.
Three new exit codes (4/5/6) distinguish failure modes (no chat-send / no AI reply / no persona listener).
Now CI proves the OOTB chain works end-to-end, not just up to page render.
