reopenSession was replacing plan steps on every follow-up message —
including approvals ('go ahead') — which destroyed the plan the operator
just approved, leaving the agent unable to track step progress and looping
run calls until maxIterations.
Fix: setGoal is the explicit signal for 'new sub-task' (the agent calls
it at the start of each follow-up direction). Step replacement now happens
there, not in reopenSession. An approval ('go ahead') does NOT call
set_goal, so the plan stays intact and the agent can execute + complete
it.
The check len(lastAssistantCalls) == 0 was too restrictive — it only
fired when the assistant had ZERO tool calls. But propose_plan + pre-plan
research are tool calls, so the assent window never opened when the
operator said 'go ahead' after a plan proposal. The agent then tried to
execute config_mutation run calls without the assent window, they queued
for approval, and the turn deadlocked.
Fix: check len(pending) == 0 (no pending APPROVALS) instead of
len(lastAssistantCalls) == 0 (no tool calls at all).
A follow-up on an executing session (first turn didn't complete_task) is
still a new direction — the old plan's steps must not block the new one.
Previously reopenSession was a no-op for executing sessions, leaving done
steps that caused errPlanInFlight on the next propose_plan call.
proposePlan: mark pending steps as 'replaced' instead of DELETE, so the
generation counter (MAX+1) sees prior generations. Without this, a first
plan that was proposed but never executed would be wiped, resetting the
counter — a follow-up's plan would look like generation 1 instead of 2.
plan-always-readonly: raise max_run_calls from 3 to 6 (agent inspects
thoroughly).
SOUL.md step 4: all-read-only plans skip the approval wait and execute
immediately. Only config_mutation/destructive steps need operator approval.
set_goal + propose_plan return text updated to match.
Fixes 3/4 eval failures where the agent proposed a plan then waited
for approval on a read-only task.
P1 plan-first: run handler refuses without propose_plan (structural gate,
not SOUL.md prose). Plan window decoupled from set_goal — config_mutation
auto-run only on operator approval (assent window). Closes the approval-free
config_mutation hole confirmed in session d0d562e0.
P2 iteration: reopenSession flips terminal→executing, marks prior plan steps
replaced, clears outcome. proposePlan excludes replaced from in-flight check,
bumps generation. A follow-up on a completed session starts a new sub-task
with a fresh plan — no more errPlanInFlight dead end.
P3 reasoning: accumulate per-iteration text into the persisted row instead
of overwriting with the last text event. Reload shows intermediate thinking,
not just the final summary.
P4 read-only allowlist: add find, tree, locate, systemctl list-timers/
list-unit-files/show, timedatectl, hostnamectl, systemd-analyze, rclone
ls/lsl/md5sum/check/cryptcheck. Fixes the find misclassification from
d0d562e0.
P5 eval harness: new assertion kinds (proposes_plan, plan_before_run,
plan_generations), multi-turn followups, fetch /sessions/{id}/plan. Four
manifests under evals/.
P6 SOUL.md: strip degenerate-case carve-out, add ITERATE step, update
set_goal guidance.
VERSION 0.6.0 → 0.7.0
Ships the 9 remaining post-fix items and a golden-conversation eval harness
that validates them against the live agent. All 4 evals pass.
SOUL.md (F.1, C.2, E.1):
- Consolidated three overlapping task-flow sections (MANDATORY TASK FLOW,
'Every chat is a task', 'AFTER EVERY TASK: WRITE BACK') into one. ~50
lines shorter. The operator's 'be more crisp' feedback.
- Added anti-patterns: don't re-execute on UI/sidebar complaints (C.2);
don't re-run fleet-wide audits when same-day knowledge exists (E.1).
- Updated approval vocabulary in step 4 to match tasks.go (approved/yes/
go/proceed/continue/ok/go ahead).
Tool-result strings (F.2):
- set_goal: tightened to 'Goal set. NEXT: pre-plan (read-only tools only).
Then propose_plan. Do not call run.'
- update_plan_step: added '(Advance with update_plan_step + run; do not
re-propose.)'
C.1 — completeTask rejects re-completion of a terminal session:
- Returns errTaskAlreadyComplete when status is already done/failed.
- The tool result directs: 'Task is already complete. Do not call
complete_task again. If the operator pointed out a UI/sidebar
inconsistency, fix it with update_plan_step...'
B.4 — Surface real model error text:
- chatWith's error event now includes finish_reason + refusal text:
'Nomos returned an empty or unusable response (finish_reason=length).
Retry or rephrase.' instead of generic 'empty response'.
- The resume-failed note already carried errText (B.3), which now has
the real context.
B.5 — Back off between resume retries (4s, 8s):
- resumeSession now sleeps before attempts 1 and 2 (exponential backoff).
A transient provider issue gets time to clear instead of 3 identical
calls in 3 seconds.
B.6 — Don't persist the empty placeholder as a visible bubble:
- If a chat turn ends with no text and no tool calls (model empty-response'd
and all retries failed), delete the placeholder row instead of persisting
an empty bubble. The error was already streamed via done+error=true.
E.2 — list_lxcs last-audited hint:
- The list_lxcs result now includes last_audited_at — the most recent
knowledge entry (tagged audit/update, or titled audit/update) linked
via an 'about' edge. The agent can see 'nextcloud — last audited today'
and skip re-running it.
Tool-call doubling bug fix (found by the eval harness):
- main.go + continue.go: the tool_use and tool_result events were both
appending separate entries to the persisted tool_calls array, doubling
every tool call in the transcript. Confirmed pre-existing (d9cdcee1,
v0.3.x era). Fixed: tool_use creates the entry, tool_result merges the
result into the same entry (matched by id). One entry per tool call.
Golden eval harness (cmd/nomos/eval/):
- A standalone Go program that loads YAML manifests of golden conversations
+ assertions, sends prompts to the chat endpoint, drains the SSE stream
(keeping the agent's context alive), and scores structural assertions
against the persisted transcript.
- 4 golden conversations covering: trivial read-only (degenerate case),
plan + proceed (the original duplication bug), UI complaint (no re-exec),
fleet audit (knowledge preferred over re-execution).
- Structural assertions only (tool-call sequences, plan steps, writeback,
completion) — text quality is model-dependent and not scored.
- Run: go run ./cmd/nomos/eval -gateway http://localhost:8092 -manifest
cmd/nomos/eval/evals/*.yaml (~$0.10/run in OpenRouter credits).
Eval results (4/4 passed):
trivial_readonly: 2 tool calls, no plan, no run
plan_advances_on_proceed: 13 tool calls, propose_plan x1, writes back
ui_complaint_no_rerun: 12 tool calls, propose_plan x1, writes back
knowledge_preferred_over_rerun: 7 tool calls, search_knowledge x1, 0 run
Version 0.5.2 -> 0.5.3 (minor: eval harness + structural hardening).
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).
Operator-reported bug: on 'proceed with the rest' the agent re-proposed the
plan, duplicating it in the sidebar. Root cause was a three-bug chain, not
one bug:
1. Trigger — model empty-response on 'proceed' (approval vocabulary didn't
list 'proceed', so the agent wasn't sure it was approved and no-op'd).
2. Amplifier — chatWith emitted 'error' without 'done' on empty response
(agent.go:370). The frontend's onComplete saw !receivedDone and
misclassified the model failure as a network disconnect, calling
handleDisconnect -> resumeSession.
3. Divergence — the reconnect note was generic ('report your state'), so
the agent re-proposed + re-executed instead of advancing the plan.
Fixes (shipped, e2e-validated against the live agent on oikos-nomos-1):
- A.2: proposePlan refuses re-proposal once a step has started (returns
errPlanInFlight). Drops the append-mode safety net (commit 5384499) that
was the direct source of the sidebar duplication. The agent must advance
with update_plan_step + run; the tool result directs it.
- A.1: proposePlan sets the 'generation' column on INSERT (migration 020
added the column + frontend grouping, but the INSERT never wired it).
- A.3: propose_plan tool description restated as a crisp contract (ONCE,
STOP and wait, REFUSES once a step started, advance with update_plan_step).
- F.3: approval vocabulary expanded to approved/yes/go/proceed/continue/ok/
go ahead; propose_plan result string tightened to an imperative.
- B.1: chatWith emits 'done' after 'error' on every terminal path via a new
emitError helper. The frontend now treats model errors as ended (not
disconnected), so no auto-reconnect -> resumeSession fires.
- B.2: reconnect/resume note carries the operator's last message + an
explicit 'advance the plan, do NOT call propose_plan again' directive when
a plan is in flight. Wired into all 4 resume entry points (reconnect,
/resume, idle-sweep, question-answer) via enrichResumeNote.
- B.3: resumeSession escalates the recovery note across its 3 attempts (final
retry: 'pick the lowest-pending step, mark it running, call run — do that
now') instead of 3 identical notes -> 3 identical empties.
Verification: TestProposePlan_RefuseInFlight replaces TestProposePlan_
AppendVsReplace. e2e conversations against the rebuilt container:
conv2 ('proceed with the rest') -> 0 propose_plan calls, plan stayed at
3 steps (was 6+ before), update_plan_step x5 + run x2 + complete_task.
conv3 (full plan, 'go ahead') -> apt-get update on lxc:dns auto-ran under
the plan window, update_entity_attributes writeback, clean complete_task.
nomos logs show zero reconnect/resume entries for the plan-proposing
sessions (the three-bug chain is closed).
Remaining (not in this commit): D.1 refuse complete_task without writeback
(next blocker), C.1/C.2, F.1/F.2 SOUL.md consolidation, B.4-B.6, E.1/E.2.

Also: re-audit 2026-07-10-general-gated-execution.md — request_execution enum
retirement (60effcb) closes item 9; only auto-act revival (item 10) remains.
Version 0.4.1 -> 0.5.0 (minor: new structural behavior, not a bugfix).
SOUL.md: mandatory 6-step task flow at TOP of file, unmissable.
Agent MUST: set_goal → pre-plan (research only) → propose_plan → STOP
and wait for approval → execute (auto-run under plan window).
Backend:
- set_goal now opens plan window immediately (config_mutation auto-runs)
- set_goal result tells agent to do pre-plan + propose_plan, not run
- propose_plan result tells agent to STOP and wait for approval
- plan window value unified to 'active' (set_goal + propose_plan)
This prevents 23 individual approval popups — one plan approval instead.
Backend:
- proposePlan sets plan window in autonomy_settings (nomos:plan:<session>)
- run handler checks plan window — auto-executes config_mutation commands
within plan without per-action approval
- planWindowActive function in server.go
- Plan window cleaned up on completeTask (already covered by LIKE '%:' || )
Frontend:
- Removed 'Session graph' header bar
- Cooler empty states: Plan shows animated dots + 'Awaiting plan…',
Activity shows pulsing dots + 'Waiting for activity…'
- SessionDigest now includes live tool timeline, plan steps, knowledge
- ToolCallGroup compact: single-line with collapsible names only (no JSON)
- Activity bar moved to bottom of messages, smart scroll respects user position
- setGoal now sets status=executing (removed stuck planning state)
- PlanProgress merged into SessionDigest, removed from TaskContextPanel
- New toolTimeline derived store in chat.ts
RegisterHook + e.Cancel() prevents Wails from destroying the WebView
when the window is closed. The app now hides to the system tray. Left-
click on the tray icon correctly restores the window.
- Tray 'Check for Updates' now checks immediately and shows dialog
- Dialog has 'Install' and 'Later' buttons
- /update/check endpoint on local server for SPA to query
SPA navigates to 127.0.0.1:18901/oidc/start, passing ret URL.
Go opens browser, waits for callback, saves token, returns HTML with
<meta refresh> back to Wails app with ?desktop=1&token=TOKEN.
main.ts extracts token from URL on reload.
SPA fetches /oidc/open (returns session ID immediately), then polls
/oidc/result every 500ms. Go server opens browser in a goroutine.
Webview never leaves the Wails origin. Token is saved to keychain and
returned through the poll response.
The webview navigates to http://127.0.0.1:18901/oidc/open?apiUrl=...
The Go server opens the system browser to Authentik, waits for callback,
exchanges code for token, saves to keychain, then redirects the webview
back with ?desktop=1&token=TOKEN. main.ts extracts the token from URL.
The local HTTP server approach (fetch to 127.0.0.1) doesn't work in the
Wails webview. Simplify: use window.open() to launch OIDC in the real
browser. After authentication, the callback page at the server shows the
token. User copies and pastes into the Token tab.
Also fix: SetSize before app.Run() crashes with nil pointer — use
WebviewWindowOptions width/height directly from restored state.
The Wails runtime isn't reliably loading for IPC calls. Replace the
binding-based StartOIDCLogin with a local HTTP server on 127.0.0.1:18901:
- /oidc/login?apiUrl=... — opens system browser, waits for token
- /oidc/callback — Authentik redirect target, exchanges code
- /oidc/config?apiUrl=... — fetches OIDC provider config
- SPA detects desktop via ?desktop=1 URL param
- SPA calls localhost directly via fetch() instead of Wails IPC
- Remove custom asset handler — it broke Wails IPC routing
- Use application.AssetFileServerFS(distFS) so Wails serves its own runtime
- Add GetStoredConfig binding: SPA calls it on startup to retrieve keychain config
- main.ts: loadDesktopConfig() fetches stored creds before mounting
- Remove runtime.js embed (Wails serves it internally)
The SPA needs /wails/runtime.js for window.wails to be available.
Since we use a custom AssetOptions.Handler, Wails' internal routing
doesn't serve it. Embed the runtime and serve it explicitly.
ConfigService.StartOIDCLogin():
- Fetches OIDC config from the API
- Generates PKCE params
- Starts local HTTP server on 127.0.0.1:18901
- Opens system browser to Authentik
- Captures callback directly (no copy-paste)
- Exchanges code for token, saves to keychain
- Returns token to SPA → auto-connects
Config.svelte detects Wails environment and calls the binding.
The old icon.icns was copied from favicon.png which was actually
a dark-background .icns file. Regenerated from favicon.svg via
qlmanage → sips → iconutil to get white logo on transparent bg.
- Server: /oidc-callback HTML page exchanges Authentik code for token,
displays it for user to copy into the desktop app's Token tab
- oidc.ts: desktop mode uses apiUrl+/oidc-callback as redirect URI,
encodes PKCE verifier in state parameter
- Config.svelte: add Server URL field to OIDC tab for desktop UX
- Caddy: add /oidc-callback to enroll bypass (no Authentik gate)
- App: favicon.png as system tray icon, window title 'Oikos'
- web/index.html: title 'Oikos'
wails3 build v3 alpha delegates to Taskfile; the go build produces a raw
binary, not a .app. Package step now creates the bundle structure
(Contents/MacOS, Info.plist) and zips it.
Problem: the Oikos control room was browser-only — no native desktop
experience (system tray, notifications, keychain-persisted auth).
Change: add a Wails v3 thin-shell desktop app at cmd/desktop/ that embeds
the existing SPA in a webview. The Go side is ~380 lines — no bundled
server, no Postgres connection. It reads auth from the OS keychain,
injects it into the SPA on load, and the SPA talks HTTPS to the homelab
same as a browser.
Phase 1.0 — Scaffold + window:
- Embed web/dist/ into the Wails binary
- Inject window.__OIKOS_CONFIG__ with keychain-stored apiUrl + token
- 1400×900 window, min 1024×700
- System tray: Open/Quit, click toggles window
Phase 1.1 — Native shell:
- Poll /api/v1/dashboard/summary every 30s; osascript notification
when approvals or critical signals increase
- Save/restore window position to ~/.config/oikos/window.json
- EnableAutoStart/DisableAutoStart — macOS LaunchAgent plist
Phase 1.2 — Token management:
- Config.svelte calls window.wails.Call.ByName('SaveConfig') after
successful connection — persists to OS keychain
- ConfigService binds SaveConfig, ClearConfig, EnableAutoStart,
DisableAutoStart to the Wails runtime
Phase 1.3 — Auto-update:
- Poll Gitea releases API every 6h, compare semver, show dialog
- 'Check for Updates' tray menu item triggers immediate poll
Phase 1.4 — Distribution:
- macOS entitlements.plist: network client + keychain access
- .gitea/workflows/desktop.yml: CI builds macOS arm64 + Linux amd64
on 'desktop-*' / 'v*' tags, attaches artifacts to release
- Makefile: desktop (build), desktop-package (build + zip/tar.gz)
- CONTRIBUTING.md: documented desktop app + commands
Risk: low. Wails v3 alpha API may shift; the Go glue is ~380 lines and
trivially portable. The desktop app is additive — zero changes to the
existing server or SPA logic. No config mutation, no infrastructure
impact.
Verification: go build, go vet, go mod tidy all pass.
Phase 0 of plans/2026-07-12-wails-desktop-app.md. The control-room SPA
is no longer embedded (web/embed.go deleted); it's a standalone static
build served separately (make ui / make deploy-ui). The api process
adds CORS and drops the dev-open auth bypass — every route now needs a
real bearer token, including SSE (?token= query param, EventSource
can't set headers) and api's own /agent proxy to nomos (previously
unauthenticated by omission).
nomos was an unauthenticated client of api's /mcp and approval-decision
endpoints; closing dev-open would have broken it, so it now sends
Authorization: Bearer $OIKOS_MCP_BEARER_TOKEN on every call back to api.
SPA gets a runtime config module (config.ts) and a Config.svelte
first-launch/reconfigure page, reachable afterwards via a "Connection"
entry in the sidebar footer. Every fetch() in api.ts routes through
fetchWithAuth so the same build works same-origin (browser prod, Vite
dev proxy) or cross-origin (future Wails webview, remote access).
Six gaps found against the plan and the live Caddy topology while
implementing — documented in the plan's "Plan review" section, most
notably: api's own /agent mount was never behind combinedAuth (fixed),
and production's Authentik forward-auth needs a bearer-token bypass for
API routes that this repo's Caddyfile.oikos reference copy now has, but
the real dtoro/caddy-conf deploy does not yet.
Verified live: cross-origin static SPA + API, CORS, bearer auth, SSE
query-token auth, and localStorage persistence all confirmed working
in-browser. Full Go test suite and npm run build pass with no
regressions against the pre-change baseline.

- cmd/webhook/main.go: HMAC-validated webhook receiver on :9797
- launchd plist: keeps webhook running, PATH includes docker

- Registered as Gitea webhook id 15 on dtoro/oikos
Fixes: auto-deploy was not wired on mac-mini after the consolidation
Events, Agent, and Audit were standalone read-only pages that never
cross-referenced the entity they related to. Fold them into EntityDetail
as entity-scoped cards (Agent activity, Audit trail) alongside the
existing Signals/Executions/Knowledge cards, and give the Signals card
real Ack/Mute/Resolve actions. Signals stays a standalone page since
it's the only one with cross-entity triage value (badge count, actions).
Also fixes the underlying reason those new cards would've stayed empty:
agent_activity rows were never tagged with entity_id at insert time
(cmd/nomos/store.go, internal/mcp/server.go), even though the column
and the API filter both support it. Added a best-effort resolver that
checks common tool-arg keys (target, entity_slug, slug, ...) against
the entities table.

Implements fixes 1-3 of plans/2026-07-11-task-completion-safety-net.md.
Confirmed live that 50/50 production sessions never reached a terminal
status because the model almost never calls complete_task, even for
trivial single-tool Q&A turns SOUL.md explicitly calls out as needing it.
- Inline safety net (agent.go): a session that never called set_goal never
framed itself as a structured task, so its first plain-text turn-end IS
the task ending — auto-complete it there instead of leaving status stuck
at its creation default forever.
- Idle sweep (continue.go, new completion_nudges column): goal-bearing
sessions that stall get one nudge, then auto-close with outcome=partial
if the nudge goes unanswered, mirroring the pattern resumeSession already
uses for a different stuck-session failure mode.
Fix 4 (backfill of the 50 already-stuck live sessions) is deliberately
separate — deferred until this is deployed and verified live, per the
plan's implementation order.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Fix F1 of plans/2026-07-11-nomos-agent-code-review.md, the last item.
buildTools called listToolsFull (a tools/list MCP round-trip) at the start of
EVERY chat turn, including every auto-continuation resume — the tool list is
static for the lifetime of one MCP connection, changing only when the api
process re-registers tools (a restart, which this client already detects and
reacts to via reconnectLocked). Re-fetching it every single turn was
avoidable network+parsing work on the hot path.
mcpClient now caches the parsed tool list after its first fetch, guarded by
its own mutex (kept separate from the request-serializing mu so a cache
check never contends with an in-flight doRequest call). reconnectLocked
clears the cache — an api restart may have changed what's registered, so a
stale cache would be wrong, not just slow. fleetSnapshot's get_health_summary
call is deliberately left uncached — it's meant to be "as of now."
Since each session gets its own client (the per-session pool from the
concurrency work), this caches per-task-conversation rather than globally: a
task's FIRST turn still pays the round-trip, every turn after reuses the
cached list — which is exactly the case that mattered (long-running,
heavily-autonomous tasks with many auto-continuation resumes).
Verified live via the api's request log: a brand-new session's first turn
made 3 MCP calls (initialize, tools/list, get_health_summary); a second turn
on the SAME session made exactly 1 (only get_health_summary) — tools/list
correctly skipped.
This completes the implementation order in
plans/2026-07-11-nomos-agent-code-review.md — every A/B/D/E/F finding from
the review (excluding C1, explicitly deferred per operator instruction) is
now fixed, tested, and verified live.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Fix B3 of plans/2026-07-11-nomos-agent-code-review.md. resumeSession's retry
loop (used by both auto-continuation and panel-answered questions) already
retried once on a transient LLM failure, but if BOTH attempts came back
empty/erroring, the code just logged and returned — the task was left at
whatever status it already had (typically 'executing' or 'awaiting_input')
with no outcome, no operator-visible signal beyond an inert error line
buried in the transcript, and no way to tell a genuinely stuck task apart
from one quietly still working.
On permanent failure, now calls store.completeTask(outcome='failure', a
summary built from the error) so the task board reflects reality instead of
showing a task that looks perpetually in-progress. Uses context.Background()
for that write, matching resumeSession's own persistence pattern, since the
context that led to the failure may itself be in a bad state. This doesn't
prevent the operator from continuing to work the task via a fresh chat
message afterward — it only replaces silent hanging with a real status.
A full live induction of a permanent LLM outage would require breaking the
model/API-key config for the whole nomos container — too invasive for this
fix's priority. Verified instead that the new branch stays correctly dormant
on the happy path: ran a real ask_operator → panel-answer → resume cycle
end-to-end and confirmed the task landed at status='executing' with no
outcome set, proving the failure-handling code doesn't false-positive on a
normal successful resume.
