The
code-simplifierworkflow has been on a 5-run failure streak (100% failure rate), burning ~864 AIC/run by exhausting all 50 turns hittingPermission deniederrors forpython3(not in the bash allowlist) and a broken jq expression that corruptedrecent-commits.jsonlon every run.Changes
Fix jq arithmetic error —
split("\t"; 2)→split("\t")The two-arg form
split(str; flags)treats the second arg as a regex flags string; passing integer2caused jq to evaluate"g" + 2internally, producingstring ("g") and number (2) cannot be addedon every run and writing a corruptrecent-commits.jsonl.Add
jq *to bash allowlist — gives the agent a supported, allowlisted tool for JSON processing so it doesn't reach forpython3Python3 prompt guardrail — adds to
## Command Guardrails: "Do NOT usepython3for JSON parsing; usejq,cat, orheadinstead." Directly addresses the root cause: 11Permission denieddenials per run frompython3 -c "..."invocationsConsecutive permission-denied guardrail — adds: "If you encounter 3 or more consecutive
Permission deniederrors for the same type of command, stop immediately and callreport_incomplete." Provides a measurable threshold before the 50-turn/25M-token hard caps are hitRecompile lock file via
