feat(agent): close knowledge loop — refuse complete_task without writeback (D.1+D.2)
D.1 — complete_task structural gate:
- hadDiscovery(ctx, session) reports whether the session ran `run` successfully
against a live target (NOT get_entity/list_lxcs — those are DB lookups, not
new facts). A trivial Q&A that only calls get_entity is a degenerate case
and must NOT be blocked.
- complete_task with outcome=success is REFUSED when hadDiscovery && !
hadEntityWriteback. The refusal fires BEFORE completeTask runs, so the
session stays in 'executing' state and the agent must call
update_entity_attributes/create_relationship then retry complete_task.
An explicit failure/partial is allowed through (the agent is acknowledging
it didn't finish — no reason to force writeback).
- Replaces the prior advisory warning (5.5) which the agent consistently
ignored. The agent saw the warning and ended the task anyway; this gate
makes the writeback a hard prerequisite for success.
D.2 — propose_plan auto-append writeback step:
- When the agent proposes a plan whose steps don't mention
update_entity_attributes or create_relationship, D.2 appends a final
'Write back: update_entity_attributes + create_relationship +
upsert_knowledge' step before persisting. The result string tells the
agent it was appended.
- With the seq-order enforcement (5.6) and D.1's complete_task gate, the
agent must complete the writeback step (and actually call the tools) to
finish. Neither relies on the agent reading SOUL.md.
- Removed the old advisory writeback nudge from propose_plan's result
string — D.2 makes it structural.
- Updated the propose_plan tool description to state both gates crisply.
Verification:
- TestHadDiscoveryAndWriteback: hadDiscovery true only after a successful
`run`; false after failed run, get_entity, or no calls. hadEntityWriteback
true only after update_entity_attributes/create_relationship.
- e2e against the live agent (oikos-nomos-1, v0.5.1):
- D.2: agent proposed 3 steps (no writeback); D.2 auto-appended step 4
'Write back: update_entity_attributes + ...'. Result string said
'(appended a writeback step — your plan didn't include one; step 4)'.
- D.1: agent ran `run` (uptime on lxc:gitea), called complete_task, was
REFUSED ('Refused: this session ran run against live targets (discovery)
but did not call update_entity_attributes...'). Agent self-corrected:
called update_entity_attributes, retried complete_task, succeeded.
Knowledge loop closed end-to-end.
Version 0.5.0 -> 0.5.1 (patch: structural enforcement of existing intent).
