Closes #290. This builds the Maintainer's rule of 2026-10-21, adopted on #191 (comment 6327479372), and records it as decision 0047 (the queue order: #293 keeps 0046, this takes 0047; it is enqueued only after #293 merges). 0047 adds to decision 0025.

What it adds

  • adapters/acceptance.py reads whether the issues a pull request closes ask for an acceptance contract.
    • The closing references. They are read over GraphQL, in the shape P-33 and P-46 recorded, with each issue's repo and labels.
    • The ask. An issue asks only when its item's Intent asks (fix or implement, which no Lifecycle runs yet) or when a person adds the factory:contract label (kernel/terms.py).
    • How the label is read. It reads as the Kernel reads a control label (standing_labels): only a person ends what a person placed (L-17). An App or the machine user, even acting with a person's token, neither asks nor ends a person's ask. A removal in the same second reads as placed.
    • The labels must agree. The labels GitHub lists on the issue must match what its timeline says.
    • The result:
      • No closing issue asks: acceptance is null and read whole. Slice 1 no longer defers on every pull request.
      • An issue asks: the read is not whole until adapters/contract.py reads the contract, so the Kernel defers.
      • Not whole for any of these reasons:
        • closing references past their page, of another repo, or named twice;
        • an issue's labels past their page, or out of step with its timeline;
        • a short issue timeline;
        • a pull request to a base other than the default branch, which carries no closing reference (P-33).
      • A shape GitHub does not give is refused.
  • adapters/facts.py puts acceptance and complete.acceptance in the snapshot from this read.
  • A test pins every Intent a Lifecycle runs, so a new Intent is ruled on before it runs.
  • Rows re-pointed:
    • The rows for the contract's own read in 0015, 0018, 0022, 0025 and 0026 now wait on adapters/contract.py.
    • Whether a contract exists is held by the new tests.

The known limit

The author writes the closing references, so removing "Closes" removes the ask. That is acceptable for slice 1, because fix and implement pull requests will be opened by the Factory's own Roles. Binding a pull request to its issue by its Run record or branch is filed as #295, "Acceptance: a pull request is bound to the issue it serves by its Run or branch, not by its author's closing link". 0047 names it, and its row waits on adapters/binding.py.

Gates

Gate Result
Claude review + security pass three real gaps, all fixed in one round (4e45302): an App ending a person's ask, a non-default base, and a vacuous Intent guard
Muse (Wonder Full), first head the same blocker (an App ending a person's ask) and two minors (can_write, malformed shapes), all fixed
AGY (Argon) no findings
Capped mutant run, by hand every adapters mutant killed (216 at 42d6078; the acceptance mutants again at 7be5456)
Export verify (7be5456) exit 0, 962 tests
tools/check_decisions.py in the checkout passes

…asks or a person's factory:contract label (#290)

First cut; decision 0046, mutants and the review still to come.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- decision 0046 adds to 0025: when an issue asks for a contract, and what is read whole when none does
- the contract rows of 0015, 0018, 0022, 0025 and 0026 wait on adapters/contract.py; whether one is asked is held
- a snapshot whose closing issue asks is not whole on acceptance, tested; the acceptance mutants killed by hand

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…erson ends it; another base is not whole (#290)

The review and security pass's fix round:

- the label binds until a person removes it (L-17), as standing_labels reads a control label; an App acting with a
  person's token is no person, and a same-second removal reads as placed
- the labels GitHub lists on the issue must agree with its timeline, else not whole
- a pull request to a base other than the default carries no closing reference (P-33): not whole
- every Intent a Lifecycle runs is pinned in a test; the unused CONTRACT_INTENTS is gone
- decision 0046 states the author-written closing link as the known limit, and its rows name every test

…binding to its issue filed as #295 (#290)

- Muse's read: a closing read of a shape GitHub does not give is refused, never another error; tested, a mutant
- the 502 case holds a whole body, so the status check alone refuses it
- 0046 names #295 as its known limit's story, and its row waits on adapters/binding.py

📝 Walkthrough

The pull request adds an adapter that determines whether closing issues request an acceptance contract. It checks issue labels against label timelines and closing-reference completeness. The facts snapshot now includes the acceptance result and its completeness status.

Changes: Acceptance request and facts snapshot

Layer / File(s) Summary
Detect acceptance contract requests
adapters/acceptance.py, adapters/AGENTS.md, kernel/terms.py, docs/decisions/0046-*, docs/decisions/0015-*, docs/decisions/0018-*, docs/decisions/0022-*, docs/decisions/0025-*, docs/decisions/0026-*, tests/test_adapters.py, tools/mutants.py
The new adapter validates closing references and label data, then checks person-authored label timeline events against listed labels. It returns an incomplete result for non-default-base pull requests, incomplete data, disagreements, or an issue that requests a contract. The decision and adapter documentation describe these rules. Tests and mutation cases cover the checks.
Include acceptance in facts snapshots
adapters/facts.py, tests/test_adapters.py, tools/mutants.py
facts.snapshot now reads and stores the acceptance result and completeness status. Snapshot tests cover complete null acceptance and contract-triggered incompleteness; mutation cases cover acceptance completeness.

Explanation

The changed adapter, facts snapshot, kernel term, focused adapter tests, mutation cases, decision 0046, AGENTS documentation, and decision-row re-pointing support Issue #290. The references to adapters/contract.py and adapters/binding.py record deferred work and do not implement unrelated behavior.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #290 requires kernel/terms.py to name the asking Intents (fix and implement) and to guard Lifecycle additions. The PR adds LABEL_CONTRACT, and tests/test_adapters.py pins the current Lifecycle Intent set, but kernel/terms.py does not define the asking Intents and adapters/acceptance.py does not read an Intent. The label path, closing-reference validation, timeline validation, snapshot fields, completeness behavior, tests, and decision 0046 are present.

Resolution

Define the asking Intents in kernel/terms.py and connect the acceptance rule and test guard to those definitions. Keep the guard failing when a Lifecycle adds an asking Intent before the adapter reads it.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 43.48% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 23 functions across 5 files. (7 skipped: 7 unsupported.)

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

…at names no label, are refused (#290)

Codex's two threads on #296.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
don-petry added a commit that referenced this pull request Oct 22, 2026
…no clock; the mint, the scratch folder and the schema walk fail closed

The record takes 0048, by the order the Factory Builder set: #293 keeps 0046 and
#296 takes 0047.

CI's shard 2 said the signal mutant SURVIVED: its one test was marked as timed by the
wall clock, which the mutation check skips. The stand-in now says on a pipe that a read
has begun and holds it until the script is signalled, so no clock is read and the test
runs under the mutation check; dash kills the mutant.

Codex on PR 298:
- A mint curl says failed is never trusted, however whole its answer reads: the token
  is revoked and the run stops.
- The raw answers' scratch directory is held outside the repo, as OUT is, through a
  link too; the template names TMPDIR, which macOS's mktemp -d alone ignores here.
- check_apps reads a facts schema whose properties or $defs are not objects as
  unreadable instead of raising.
- The grounding says what P-47 recorded: admin and write, a maintainer's role read as
  write, and read; triage was not tried.
- The Controller's metadata grant names read:facts.actor.can_write, as the reader's
  does.
- A permission is a repo's: read and kept by repo and login, and its cost counted per
  repo, never "one request an item".

Each new guard has a test and a mutant.
