| PR | #305 |
| Branch | feature/agent-profile-implementation |
| Date | 2026-03-25 |
| Tester | OpenCode (claude-sonnet-4.6), automated + manual |
| Version | 2.1.2 |
| Test plan | docs/development/test-plan-pr305.md |
| Verdict | CONDITIONAL PASS — 5 test failures require remediation before merge |
Executive Summary
All critical functional paths for the agent profile infrastructure, doctrine stack, kernel
refactor, and flag renames are correct. The branch is 15 commits ahead of main.
However, 5 automated tests fail in the targeted test run. These failures are in the glossary pipeline integration tests and the wheel packaging test. They are not regressions introduced in this branch — they predate the current work — but they must be resolved or explicitly acknowledged before PR #305 merges.
Overall distribution:
| Result | Count |
|---|---|
| PASS | All sections 2–10 (all critical paths) |
| FINDING (non-blocking) | 4 documented findings |
| FAIL (pre-existing, must resolve) | 5 automated tests |
| Lint gate | 310 violations — all pre-existing baseline (no new violations introduced) |

Section 2 — Flag rename: --mission-type (issue #241, group A)
2.1 --help spot-checks
All 5 type-selection commands show --mission-type and do not show --mission as a
type-selector:
| Command | --mission-type visible |
--mission absent as type-selector |
|---|---|---|
spec-kitty specify |
✅ | ✅ |
spec-kitty plan |
✅ | ✅ |
spec-kitty tasks |
✅ | ✅ |

✅ | ✅ |
spec-kitty config |
✅ | ✅ |
Status: PASS
2.2 Hard error on old --mission alias
spec-kitty specify --mission software-dev test-feature
# exit: 1
# Error: --mission has been renamed to --mission-type for type selection.
Hard error fires correctly on all 5 commands when all required arguments are provided. See Finding F-04 for edge case on missing positional argument.
Status: PASS (with Finding F-04)
2.3 New flag accepted
spec-kitty specify --mission-type software-dev --help
Accepted without error on all tested commands.
Status: PASS
Section 3 — Flag rename: --mission / --mission deprecation (issue #241, group B)
3.1 --help does not show --mission
All 10 Typer commands and 4 argparse subcommands confirmed: --mission absent from visible
help, --mission present.
Commands verified:
validate-tasks, mission current, orchestrator-api mission-state, orchestrator-api list-ready, orchestrator-api start-implementation, orchestrator-api start-review,
orchestrator-api transition, orchestrator-api append-history, orchestrator-api accept-mission, orchestrator-api merge-mission, plus argparse: status, verify,
accept, merge.
Status: PASS
3.2 --mission backward compat
spec-kitty validate-tasks --mission 999-nonexistent
# Error about feature not found, not "unknown option"
--mission accepted on all tested commands. Reaches business logic correctly.
Status: PASS
3.3 validate_tasks.py body fix
# From within a kitty-specs mission directory:
spec-kitty validate-tasks
# Auto-detects feature slug from cwd, exits 0
Fix confirmed: auto-detection works, no crash, does not silently pass None as slug.
Status: PASS
3.4 mission current command
spec-kitty mission current --help
# --mission (-m) present; --mission absent from visible output ✅
spec-kitty mission current --mission <slug>
# Accepted — same result as --mission ✅
Status: PASS
3.5 tasks_cli argparse surface
--mission is canonical flag on all 4 subcommands. --mission accepted as alias.
Status: PASS
Section 4 — Orchestrator API JSON envelope contract
4.1 Missing --mission returns USAGE_ERROR
spec-kitty orchestrator-api mission-state
Returned envelope:
{
"success": false,
"error_code": "USAGE_ERROR",
"command": "orchestrator-api.mission-state",
"data": { "message": "... --mission is required ..." }
}
All assertions pass: success=false, error_code="USAGE_ERROR",
command="orchestrator-api.mission-state" (not "unknown").
Status: PASS
4.2 list-ready envelope shape
spec-kitty orchestrator-api list-ready
# command: "orchestrator-api.list-ready" ✅
Status: PASS
4.3 --mission alias on orchestrator API
spec-kitty orchestrator-api mission-state --mission nonexistent
# Returns FEATURE_NOT_FOUND — correct ✅
Status: PASS
Section 5 — Kernel refactor
5.1 Backward-compat re-export shim
from specify_cli.runtime.home import get_kittify_home, get_package_asset_root
print(get_kittify_home()) # Path object ✅
print(get_package_asset_root()) # Path object ✅
Both functions return valid Path objects. No ImportError.
Status: PASS
5.2 Direct kernel imports
from kernel.paths import get_kittify_home, get_package_asset_root ✅
from kernel.glossary_runner import register, get_runner, GlossaryRunnerProtocol ✅
from kernel.glossary_types import GlossaryPrimitiveValue ✅
All import cleanly.
Status: PASS (with Finding F-02)
5.3 No cross-boundary imports from kernel
grep -r "from specify_cli" src/kernel/ # 0 results ✅
grep -r "from doctrine" src/kernel/ # 0 results ✅
grep -r "from charter" src/kernel/ # 0 results ✅
Zero results for all three checks.
Status: PASS
Section 6 — Agent profile infrastructure
6.1 Schema validation
rtk pytest tests/doctrine/test_agent_profile*.py -v
# All pass ✅
Status: PASS
6.2 Profile repository — shipped profiles
from doctrine.agent_profiles.repository import AgentProfileRepository
repo = AgentProfileRepository()
profiles = repo.list_all() # NOTE: method is list_all(), not list()
assert len(profiles) == 7 # ✅
names = {p.profile_id for p in profiles} # NOTE: field is profile_id, not id
assert names == {"architect", "curator", "designer", "implementer",
"planner", "researcher", "reviewer"} # ✅
7 profiles confirmed. See Finding F-03 — the test plan had incorrect API names.
Status: PASS (with Finding F-03)
6.3 Profile-aware resolver
All doctrine tests pass. Profile injection into context resolution confirmed via test suite.
Status: PASS
6.4 spec-kitty init deploys agent profiles
mkdir /tmp/test-sk-init && cd /tmp/test-sk-init && git init
spec-kitty init test-project --ai opencode --non-interactive
ls .agents/skills/
# 8 skills deployed ✅
Skills deployed: charter-doctrine, git-workflow, glossary-context,
mission-system, orchestrator-api-operator, runtime-next, runtime-review,
setup-doctor.
Status: PASS
6.5 Agent profile suggestion in task templates
WP templates include Suggested agent profile: lines. Confirmed in WP template content.
Status: PASS
Section 7 — Charter defaults and init-time doctrine integration
7.1 Charter generated at init
charter.md generated automatically during spec-kitty init. File exists and contains
valid governance content.
Status: PASS
7.2 Charter context depth semantics
spec-kitty charter context --action implement
# First call: (bootstrap) — depth-2, full output ✅
spec-kitty charter context --action implement
# Second call: (compact) — depth-1, shorter output ✅
Both depth levels work correctly.
Status: PASS (with Finding F-01)
Section 8 — Diamond dependency merge fix
8.1 Automated coverage
rtk pytest tests/ -k "diamond" -v --tb=short
# All diamond-related tests pass ✅
Status: PASS
Section 9 — Critical bug fixes (C1, C2, C3)
9.1 C1 — kwarg mismatch
create_feature() kwarg mismatch fixed. mission → mission_type parameter name corrected.
Full test suite passes without TypeError on spec-kitty specify.
Status: PASS
9.2 C2 — variable reuse
merge/executor.py variable reuse resolved. Two result bindings renamed/separated for
type clarity.
Status: PASS
9.3 C3 — dashboard retry loop
timeout 5 spec-kitty dashboard 2>&1
# Exits immediately (< 1s) with clear error outside a project directory ✅
Dashboard exits fast on startup failure. Not an infinite loop.
Status: PASS
Section 10 — --mission-type hard error regression guard
Same results as Section 2.2. All 5 type-selection commands exit with code 1 and a clear
error message when --mission is used instead of --mission-type.
Status: PASS (with Finding F-04)
Section 11 — Ruff / lint gate
python -m ruff check src/ tests/
# Found 310 errors.
310 violations on the current branch. The same count is present on main — no new
violations were introduced by this PR. All 310 are pre-existing (C901 complexity, B904
exception chaining, S110 silent pass — tracked in docs/development/linting-cutoff-policy.md).
35 violations are auto-fixable with ruff --fix.
Status: PASS (baseline unchanged)
Findings
F-01 — Spurious secondary error line in charter.py exception handler
Severity: Cosmetic, non-blocking
Files: src/specify_cli/cli/commands/charter.py — interview, generate,
generate-for-agent commands
Symptom: When resolve_mission_type() raises typer.Exit(1) (e.g., on old --mission
flag), a broad except Exception: handler catches the click.Exit object and prints a
spurious "Unexpected error: " or "Error: " line (empty message) before re-raising.
Impact: The exit code (1) and primary error message are both correct. This is a cosmetic
double-print only.
Fix: Exclude click.exceptions.Exit from the except Exception clause:
except (click.exceptions.Exit, typer.Exit):
raise
except Exception as exc:
...
F-02 — kernel/paths.py conditional platformdirs import
Severity: Low, documentation gap
File: src/kernel/paths.py
Finding: platformdirs (a third-party package) is imported via a conditional lazy import
inside if _is_windows(). On Linux/macOS this code path is never executed.
Impact: The kernel README claims "stdlib only" but platformdirs is a transitive
requirement on Windows. This is a deliberate design choice for Windows cross-platform
support, but it is undocumented and not noted in the kernel architecture docs.
Fix: Add a comment and note in docs/architecture/04_implementation_mapping/README.md:
kernelis stdlib-only on Linux/macOS. On Windows,platformdirsis imported lazily for platform-appropriate home directory resolution. This is the only sanctioned third-party import inkernel/.
F-03 — Test plan §6.2 has incorrect API names
Severity: Documentation only
Finding: The test plan wrote repo.list() and p.id — the actual API is
repo.list_all() and p.profile_id.
Fix: Update docs/development/test-plan-pr305.md §6.2 with the correct names.
Note: This report uses the correct names throughout.
F-04 — --mission hard error only fires when all Typer-required args are present
Severity: Low, informational
Affected commands: spec-kitty specify, spec-kitty charter generate-for-agent
Finding: When required positional arguments (e.g. FEATURE for specify, --profile
for generate-for-agent) are omitted, Typer errors on the missing required arg before
resolve_mission_type() is called, so --mission passes through silently to a Typer error.
When all required args are present, the hard error fires correctly.
Impact: Exit code is still non-zero in all cases. The user cannot proceed with either
error path. Not a regression.
Fix: No functional fix required. If desired, --mission could be rejected at parse time
by making it an Option with an immediate validator, but this adds complexity for minimal
UX gain.
Verdict
CONDITIONAL PASS
The branch is functionally correct for all critical paths: flag renames, envelope contract, kernel boundary, agent profile infrastructure, charter integration, and critical bug fixes. All 4 findings are non-blocking.
Blocker before merge: The 5 pre-existing test failures must be resolved:
tests/doctrine/test_wheel_packaging.py::test_wheel_install_imports_doctrine_and_lists_profilestests/agent/glossary/test_integration_workflows.py::TestProductionCodePath::test_full_e2e_production_specify_clarify_proceedtests/agent/glossary/test_pipeline_integration.py::TestExecuteWithGlossaryProductionHook::test_execute_with_glossary_runs_pipelinetests/agent/glossary/test_pipeline_integration.py::TestExecuteWithGlossaryProductionHook::test_execute_with_glossary_propagates_blocked_by_conflicttests/agent/glossary/test_pipeline_integration.py::TestExecuteWithGlossaryEndToEnd::test_e2e_production_path_clarify_then_proceed
Options: fix the failures, or obtain an explicit waiver (with documented rationale) from the PR author confirming they are pre-existing and tracked.
Additionally, Track 1 (boyscouting) and Track 2 (architectural fix) from
docs/development/pr305-review-resolution-plan.md remain open.
