Tier 2 Autonomous Sandbox Implementation Plan

For agentic workers: REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (- [ ]) syntax for tracking.

Goal: Add an unattended Tier 2 execution mode in a sibling clone (C:\projects\manual_slop_tier2\) with a 3-layer enforcement stack (OpenCode permissions + Windows restricted token + git hooks), a bounded autonomous run with a failcount threshold, and an opt-in test suite.

Architecture: Bootstrap creates the sibling clone + installs the agent profile / slash command / git hooks templates. A PowerShell wrapper acquires a Windows restricted token and launches OpenCode under that token. The Tier 2 slash command fetches the spec, creates a feature branch, runs the plan, monitors failcount, and writes a markdown failure report on give-up. Default uv run pytest stays app-focused; sandbox tests are env-var-gated.

Tech Stack: Python 3.11+ (failcount + report + CLI), PowerShell 7+ (wrapper + bootstrap), OpenCode permission system, Windows restricted tokens + ACLs, Git 2.23+ (uses git switch, not git checkout), pytest (with pytest.mark.skipif opt-in pattern).

Spec: conductor/tracks/tier2_autonomous_sandbox_20260616/spec.md

Scope: 7 new files in main repo (1 Python module, 1 Python CLI, 2 PowerShell scripts, 1 markdown slash command, 1 markdown agent template, 1 JSON config fragment, 2 git hook templates, 1 user guide) + 4 new test files + 1 sibling clone at C:\projects\manual_slop_tier2\ created by the bootstrap.

Step 2: Conductor - User Manual Verification (Phase 1)

Verify: all 13 failcount tests pass, 100% coverage on scripts/tier2/failcount.py.

Phase 2: Failure Report Writer

Focus: Pure logic (mostly), takes a state + a list of task results and writes a markdown report. Test the report shape.

Phase 3: Slash Command + Agent Profile + Spec Test

Focus: The user-facing entry points. Templates the bootstrap will copy to the Tier 2 clone. A spec test verifies the markdown contract.

Files:

Create: conductor/tier2/commands/tier-2-auto-execute.md
Create: conductor/tier2/agents/tier2-autonomous.md
Create: conductor/tier2/opencode.json.fragment
Create: tests/test_tier2_slash_command_spec.py

Task 3.1: Create the `tier-2-auto-execute.md` slash command template

Step 1: Write the slash command

<!-- conductor/tier2/commands/tier-2-auto-execute.md -->
---
description: Autonomously execute a conductor track in the Tier 2 sandbox
agent: tier2-autonomous
---

# /tier-2-auto-execute

Run a track autonomously in the Tier 2 sandboxed mode. No `permission: ask` prompts.

## Arguments
$ARGUMENTS - Track name (required). Examples: `result_migration_review_pass`, `data_structure_strengthening_20260606`.
Optional flags: `--resume` (continue from last completed task), `--toast` (Windows toast on give-up).

## Pre-flight

1. **Verify sandbox is active.** This slash command must be invoked from a sandboxed OpenCode session. If `manual-slop_get_ui_performance` returns an error or the run_tier2_sandboxed.ps1 wrapper is not in the parent process, refuse to start.
2. **Load the track spec.** Read `conductor/tracks/<track-name>/spec.md` and `plan.md` from the current branch. If the track does not exist, abort.
3. **Check for a previous run.** If `<app-data>/tier2/<track-name>/state.json` exists AND `--resume` is NOT set, abort with: "Previous run found for this track. Use `--resume` to continue, or delete the state file to start fresh."

## Protocol

1. `git fetch origin main`
2. `git switch -c tier2/<track-name> origin/main` (NOT `git checkout` - it is banned)
3. Initialize failcount state at `<app-data>/tier2/<track-name>/state.json` (use `load_state` or fresh state)
4. For each task in `plan.md`:
   a. Red: delegate test creation to @tier3-worker
   b. Run tests; if pass unexpectedly, call `record_red_failure` and check `should_give_up`
   c. Green: delegate implementation to @tier3-worker
   d. Run tests; if fail, call `record_green_failure` and check `should_give_up`
   e. On green: `record_commit` and `record_green_success` (resets counters)
   f. Commit per task with `git add . && git commit -m "..."` and attach git note
   g. Update `plan.md` with commit SHA
5. After all tasks complete, print success summary.
6. On give-up: call `write_failure_report` from `scripts.tier2.write_report`, print "TRACK ABORTED, see report at <path>".

## Hard Bans (enforced by 3 layers)

- `git restore*` (any form) — denied
- `git push*` (any push) — denied
- `git checkout*` (any form) — denied; use `git switch` instead
- `git reset*` (any form) — denied

Filesystem access is restricted to the Tier 2 clone + `<app-data>/manual_slop/tier2/`. The Windows restricted token blocks reads/writes outside these paths at the OS level.

Step 2: Verify the file is valid markdown frontmatter

Run: uv run python -c "import re; content = open('conductor/tier2/commands/tier-2-auto-execute.md').read(); m = re.match(r'---\n(.*?)\n---\n', content, re.DOTALL); assert m; print('frontmatter OK')" Expected: frontmatter OK

Step 3: Commit

git add conductor/tier2/commands/tier-2-auto-execute.md
git commit -m "feat(tier2): create tier-2-auto-execute slash command template"

Task 3.2: Create the `tier2-autonomous.md` agent template

Step 1: Write the agent prompt

<!-- conductor/tier2/agents/tier2-autonomous.md -->
---
description: Tier 2 Tech Lead in autonomous mode (no permission: ask, sandbox-enforced)
mode: primary
model: minimax-coding-plan/MiniMax-M3
temperature: 0.4
permission:
  edit: allow
  read:
    "*": deny
    "C:\\projects\\manual_slop_tier2\\**": allow
    "C:\\Users\\Ed\\AppData\\Local\\manual_slop\\tier2\\**": allow
    "C:\\Users\\Ed\\AppData\\Local\\manual_slop\\tier2_failures\\**": allow

  bash:
    "*": allow
    "git push*": deny
    "git checkout*": deny
    "git restore*": deny
    "git reset*": deny
---

STRICT SYSTEM DIRECTIVE: You are a Tier 2 Tech Lead in AUTONOMOUS mode.

You are running inside a Windows restricted token. The OpenCode permission system, the Windows ACL subsystem, and the git hooks in the clone are all enforcing the hard-ban list. A bypass of one layer is caught by another.

## Hard Bans (cannot run, enforced at 3 layers)

- `git push*` (any push) - the user pushes the branch after review
- `git checkout*` (any form) - use `git switch -c` for new branches, `git switch` to switch
- `git restore*` (any form) - do not restore files
- `git reset*` (any form) - do not reset state
- File access outside the Tier 2 clone + `C:\Users\Ed\AppData\Local\manual_slop\tier2\` - the OS blocks it

## Failcount Contract

After every task commit, you MUST check `should_give_up` from `scripts.tier2.failcount`. The state is persisted at `<app-data>/tier2/<track>/state.json`. The thresholds are:
- 3 consecutive red-phase failures
- 3 consecutive green-phase failures
- 30 minutes with no progress (no commit, no green test)

If `should_give_up` returns True, IMMEDIATELY stop. Do not attempt another fix. Call `write_failure_report` from `scripts.tier2.write_report` and print the report path.

## TDD Protocol

Same as the interactive Tier 2: Red (write failing test, run, confirm fail) -> Green (implement, run, confirm pass) -> Refactor (optional) -> commit per task.

## Pre-Delegation Checkpoint

Before each Tier 3 worker delegation, run `git add .` to stage prior work. This is a safety net: if the worker fails or incorrectly runs `git restore`, your prior iterations are not lost.

## Per-Task Commit Protocol

After each task:
1. `git add <specific files>` (not `git add .` for individual commits)
2. `git commit -m "<type>(<scope>): <description>"`
3. Get the commit hash: `git log -1 --format="%H"`
4. Attach git note: `git notes add -m "Task: ..." <hash>`
5. Update `plan.md`: change `[ ]` to `[x] <sha>` for the task
6. Commit the plan update: `git add plan.md && git commit -m "conductor(plan): Mark task complete"`

## Limitations

- You do NOT push the branch. The user fetches it back to main and reviews with Tier 1 (interactive).
- You do NOT merge to main. The user decides.
- You do NOT run the Manual Slop GUI. The MCP server runs under the same restricted token but the GUI itself is not part of the sandbox.

Step 2: Verify frontmatter is valid

Run: uv run python -c "import re; content = open('conductor/tier2/agents/tier2-autonomous.md').read(); m = re.match(r'---\n(.*?)\n---\n', content, re.DOTALL); assert m; print('frontmatter OK')" Expected: frontmatter OK

Step 3: Commit

git add conductor/tier2/agents/tier2-autonomous.md
git commit -m "feat(tier2): create tier2-autonomous agent profile template"

Task 3.3: Create the `opencode.json.fragment` config template

Focus: The slash command's protocol duplicated as a CLI so the smoke e2e test can run without an OpenCode session. The slash command itself becomes a thin wrapper that calls this CLI.

.SYNOPSIS
  One-time bootstrap for the Tier 2 autonomous sandbox.
.DESCRIPTION
  Clones the main repo to C:\projects\manual_slop_tier2\, sets origin
  to the main repo's local path, copies the agent/command/opencode.json
  templates, installs the git hooks, creates the app-data temp dir with
  restricted ACLs, and creates a "Tier 2 (Sandboxed)" desktop shortcut.
  Idempotent: re-running updates templates and re-fetches, but does not
  destroy existing feature branches in the clone.

# Tier 2 autonomous mode: `git push` is disabled.
# The user pushes the branch manually from the main repo after review.

Create: tests/test_tier2_smoke_e2e.py
Create: tests/artifacts/tier2_smoke_track/spec.md
Create: tests/artifacts/tier2_smoke_track/plan.md

Task 8.1: Add markers to `pyproject.toml`

Step 1: Find the [tool.pytest.ini_options] section in pyproject.toml

Run: grep -n "tool.pytest.ini_options" pyproject.toml Expected: a line number

Step 2: Add the markers to the existing markers list (or create it)

The existing markers = [...] list (if present) needs these added:

"tier2_sandbox: opt-in sandbox tests (set TIER2_SANDBOX_TESTS=1)",
"tier2_smoke: opt-in full e2e (set TIER2_SANDBOX_TESTS=1 TIER2_SMOKE=1)",

If there is no existing markers list, add the whole block.

Step 3: Verify pytest collects the markers

Run: uv run pytest --markers | grep tier2 Expected: 2 lines (tier2_sandbox and tier2_smoke)

Step 4: Commit

git add pyproject.toml
git commit -m "test(tier2): add tier2_sandbox and tier2_smoke pytest markers"

Task 8.2: Create the trivial smoke track

Step 1: Create the smoke track spec

<!-- tests/artifacts/tier2_smoke_track/spec.md -->
# Smoke Track: trivial doc-file addition

## Overview
A 1-task track that just adds a single doc file. Used by the smoke e2e
test to verify the full Tier 2 pipeline (bootstrap + branch + commit).

## Goals
- Add `tests/artifacts/tier2_smoke_track/added.md` with one line of content
- Commit the file on a feature branch
- Verify the branch exists with 1 commit

## Functional Requirements
- FR1: create the file with content "smoke test ok\n"
- FR2: commit with message "test(tier2): smoke e2e track"

## Out of Scope
- Anything else.

Step 2: Create the smoke track plan

<!-- tests/artifacts/tier2_smoke_track/plan.md -->
# Implementation Plan: smoke track

## Phase 1: Add the file

- [ ] Task 1.1: Create `tests/artifacts/tier2_smoke_track/added.md` with content `smoke test ok\n`
- [ ] Task 1.2: Commit with message `test(tier2): smoke e2e track`

Step 3: Commit

git add tests/artifacts/tier2_smoke_track/
git commit -m "test(tier2): add trivial smoke track for e2e test"

Task 8.3: Create `test_tier2_setup_bootstrap.py` (opt-in)

Phase 9: User Guide + Final Verification

Focus: The user-facing documentation. The "Verify the sandbox" checklist.

Files:

Task 9.1: Create the user guide

Step 1: Write the guide

<!-- docs/guide_tier2_autonomous.md -->
# Tier 2 Autonomous Sandbox

## Why this exists

When you run Tier 2 in the main repo, every `edit` and every `bash`
call prompts you for approval (`permission: ask`). For well-regularized
tracks (TDD red/green with atomic per-task commits), this is noise.
This track adds an **autonomous mode** in a sibling clone where Tier 2
runs unattended, with a 3-layer enforcement stack to keep it contained.

## One-time bootstrap

```powershell
cd C:\projects\manual_slop
pwsh -File scripts\tier2\setup_tier2_clone.ps1 -WhatIf   # dry run first
pwsh -File scripts\tier2\setup_tier2_clone.ps1            # actual bootstrap

The bootstrap:

Clones the main repo to C:\projects\manual_slop_tier2\
Sets origin = C:\projects\manual_slop (local path; no remote)
Copies the agent, slash command, and opencode.json templates to the clone
Installs the git hooks (pre-push refuses all pushes; post-checkout logs checkouts)
Creates C:\Users\Ed\AppData\Local\manual_slop\tier2\ with restricted ACLs
Creates a "Tier 2 (Sandboxed)" desktop shortcut

Per-track invocation

Double-click the "Tier 2 (Sandboxed)" desktop shortcut (or run pwsh -File C:\projects\manual_slop\scripts\tier2\run_tier2_sandboxed.ps1 manually)
In the OpenCode session, type:
```
/tier-2-auto-execute <track-name>
```
Examples:
- /tier-2-auto-execute result_migration_review_pass
- /tier-2-auto-execute data_structure_strengthening_20260606 --resume
- /tier-2-auto-execute rag_test_failures_20260615 --toast
Tier 2 runs the track autonomously, commits per task, monitors failcount
On success: prints a summary
On give-up: writes a failure report and prints the path

Review and merge

After Tier 2 finishes (success or give-up):

cd C:\projects\manual_slop (back to main)
git fetch C:/projects/manual_slop_tier2 tier2/<track-name>
Review the diff with Tier 1 (interactive)
On approval: git merge --no-ff tier2/<track-name> to main

The 4 hard bans (enforced at 3 layers)

Ban	Layer 1 (OpenCode)	Layer 2 (OS)	Layer 3 (git hook)
`git push*` (any push)	`permission.bash` deny rule	n/a	`pre-push` hook refuses all pushes
`git checkout*` (any form)	`permission.bash` deny rule	n/a	`post-checkout` hook logs the checkout
`git restore*` (any form)	`permission.bash` deny rule	n/a	n/a
`git reset*` (any form)	`permission.bash` deny rule	n/a	n/a
File access outside Tier 2 clone + app-data dir	`permission.read`/`write` path allowlist	Windows ACL	n/a

The failcount threshold

Tier 2 gives up if ANY of these hit:

3 consecutive red-phase failures (the test doesn't fail when it should)
3 consecutive green-phase failures (the implementation doesn't make the test pass)
30 minutes with no progress (no commit, no green test)

Override via scripts/tier2/failcount.toml.

The failure report

Written to C:\Users\Ed\AppData\Local\manual_slop\tier2_failures\<track>_<timestamp>.md with 7 sections:

Header (track, branch, started, stopped, duration, give-up signal)
Tasks completed
Current task (where it stopped)
Last 3 failures
Failcount state
Git state (git log tier2/<track> ^origin/main)
Recommendation (heuristic-based)

A .STOPPED flag file is created alongside the report. The main repo can check for it on next Tier 1 session start (an opt-in banner).

Verify the sandbox (manual checklist)

After bootstrap, run these inside the Tier 2 sandboxed OpenCode session to verify the bans are enforced:

Try git restore tests/test_failcount.py — should print "denied"
Try git push origin main — should print "denied" (or the pre-push hook fires)
Try git checkout -- src/foo.py — should print "denied"
Try git reset --hard HEAD~1 — should print "denied"
Try to read C:\Users\Ed\Documents\test.txt (from a Python subprocess) — should print "ACCESS_DENIED"

And verify allowed operations work:

git status — works
git switch -c test-branch — works
Edit a file in the Tier 2 clone — works
git add <file> && git commit -m "test" — works

Troubleshooting

"Tier 2 (Sandboxed) shortcut doesn't work": check that pwsh.exe is on the PATH (where.exe pwsh).
"Permission denied" on file access inside the sandbox: the Windows ACL may be too restrictive. Re-run the bootstrap (setup_tier2_clone.ps1 is idempotent).
"Failcount state not found": the <app-data>/tier2/<track>/ dir may be missing. The bootstrap creates it; check $env:LOCALAPPDATA.
"Pre-push hook not firing": check that .git/hooks/pre-push is executable. On Windows, Git Bash runs the hook; check git config core.hooksPath if you have a custom hooks dir.
"Tier 2 keeps giving up at 30 min": increase no_progress_minutes in scripts/tier2/failcount.toml.


- [ ] **Step 2: Verify the file is valid markdown (no broken links)**

Run: `uv run python -c "from pathlib import Path; p = Path('docs/guide_tier2_autonomous.md'); assert p.exists(); print(f'{len(p.read_text())} bytes')"`
Expected: a number of bytes printed

- [ ] **Step 3: Commit**

```bash
git add docs/guide_tier2_autonomous.md
git commit -m "docs(tier2): add user guide for Tier 2 autonomous sandbox"

Task 9.2: Update `conductor/tracks.md` with the new track

Step 1: Find the appropriate section in conductor/tracks.md

Read the top of conductor/tracks.md to find where the active tracks list lives. Add an entry for tier2_autonomous_sandbox_20260616.

Step 2: Add the row to the active tracks table

Add a row to the "Active Tracks (Current Queue)" table:

| 25 | A | [Tier 2 Autonomous Sandbox](#track-tier-2-autonomous-sandbox-new-2026-06-16) | spec ✓, plan ✓, ready to start | (none — independent; **NEW 2026-06-16**; meta-tooling; eliminates the `permission: ask` bottleneck for well-regularized tracks) |

Then add the corresponding section heading further down:

### Track: Tier 2 Autonomous Sandbox (NEW 2026-06-16)

[./tracks/tier2_autonomous_sandbox_20260616/](./tracks/tier2_autonomous_sandbox_20260616/)

Step 3: Commit

git add conductor/tracks.md
git commit -m "conductor(plan): register tier2_autonomous_sandbox_20260616 in tracks.md"

Task 9.3: Create `metadata.json`

Step 1: Write the metadata

  "test_summary": {
    "default_on_tests": 24,
    "opt_in_tests_sandbox": 4,
    "opt_in_tests_smoke": 1
  },
  "verification_criteria": [
    "All failcount unit tests pass (13 tests, 100% coverage on scripts/tier2/failcount.py)",
    "Slash command spec test passes (11 contract assertions)",
    "Report writer tests pass (4 opt-in tests)",
    "Bootstrap -WhatIf runs without error",
    "Pre-push hook refuses a push attempt (sandbox enforcement test)",
    "Smoke e2e creates a feature branch via git switch -c",
    "User guide covers bootstrap, invocation, manual verification checklist",
    "Default uv run pytest stays app-focused (opt-in tests skip without env vars)"
  ]
}

Step 2: Verify the JSON is valid

Run: uv run python -c "import json; print(json.load(open('conductor/tracks/tier2_autonomous_sandbox_20260616/metadata.json')))" Expected: dict printed

Step 3: Commit

git add conductor/tracks/tier2_autonomous_sandbox_20260616/metadata.json
git commit -m "conductor(plan): add metadata.json for tier2_autonomous_sandbox"

Task 9.4: Final Conductor - User Manual Verification

Verify the complete track:

uv run pytest (no env vars) — all default-on tests pass, all opt-in tests skip
TIER2_SANDBOX_TESTS=1 uv run pytest — sandbox-layer tests pass
TIER2_SANDBOX_TESTS=1 TIER2_SMOKE=1 uv run pytest — full e2e passes
The user guide renders correctly in a markdown viewer
The track is registered in conductor/tracks.md
The spec + plan + metadata.json are all present in conductor/tracks/tier2_autonomous_sandbox_20260616/

Self-Review (against the spec)

1. Spec coverage:

Spec FR	Covered by
FR1.1, FR1.2, FR1.3 (bootstrap)	Phase 5 Tasks 5.1, 5.2
FR2.1, FR2.2, FR2.3 (tier2-autonomous agent)	Phase 3 Tasks 3.1, 3.2, 3.3
FR3.1, FR3.2, FR3.3 (sandboxed launcher)	Phase 6 Task 6.1
FR4.1, FR4.2, FR4.3, FR4.4 (slash command)	Phase 3 Task 3.1 + Phase 4 Tasks 4.1, 4.2
FR5.1, FR5.2, FR5.3, FR5.4 (failcount)	Phase 1 Tasks 1.3-1.15
FR6.1, FR6.2, FR6.3, FR6.4 (report writer)	Phase 2 Tasks 2.1-2.4
FR7.1, FR7.2, FR7.3 (git hooks)	Phase 7 Tasks 7.1, 7.2
FR8.1, FR8.2 (user guide)	Phase 9 Task 9.1
FR9.1 (failcount tests, default-on)	Phase 1 Tasks 1.2-1.15
FR9.2 (slash command spec test, default-on)	Phase 3 Task 3.4
FR9.3 (bootstrap test, opt-in)	Phase 8 Task 8.3
FR9.4 (sandbox enforcement test, opt-in)	Phase 8 Task 8.4
FR9.5 (report writer test, opt-in)	Phase 2 Tasks 2.1, 2.3
FR9.6 (smoke e2e test, opt-in)	Phase 8 Tasks 8.2, 8.5

2. Placeholder scan: No TBD/TODO in the plan. The "TODO" comments in Task 4.2 are explicit anchors for subsequent tasks, not placeholders. All PowerShell and Python code is complete.

3. Type consistency: FailcountState is consistent across failcount.py and all tests. TaskResult is consistent across write_report.py and all tests. compute_report_path / compute_stopped_flag_path signatures are consistent.

4. Spec requirements with no task: none — all 9 sections of FRs are covered.

Self-review verdict: plan is ready for user review.

Execution Handoff

Plan complete and saved to conductor/tracks/tier2_autonomous_sandbox_20260616/plan.md.

Two execution options:

1. Subagent-Driven (recommended) — I dispatch a fresh subagent per task, review between tasks, fast iteration. Best for this track because Phase 1 (15+ tests + module) benefits from focused per-task work.

2. Inline Execution — Execute tasks in this session using executing-plans, batch execution with checkpoints. Best if you want to watch the implementation happen in real-time.
