agent-team — R720 Plane-2 SDLC pipeline

The durable, human-gated agentic SDLC pipeline for the R720 (sh-secrev VM), design: ../docs/r720-agent-team-design.md. A task flows INTAKE → CLARIFY (the human gate) → PLAN → REVIEW, and (P3) → BUILD → DISPATCH → VERIFY → draft PR. Every stage is durable and resumable (LangGraph + a SQLite checkpointer); the human gate suspends on interrupt() and resumes on a real answer.

INTAKE → CLARIFY (Claude, human gate) → PLAN (Claude) → REVIEW (GPT-4.1)

                                            └── loop-back ───┤
                                                approve/escalate → END
        (P3 box path — gated behind the C1 re-review):
            approve → BUILD (DeepSeek) → DISPATCH (push branch, trigger CI,
                      capture run_id, suspend) → [CI-watcher resumes on terminal
                      conclusion] → VERIFY (ci_gate) → draft PR

Status (2026-06-23). P1 (human gate) + P2 (planner + adversarial review loop) + the live runtime (coordinator, Slack/GitHub/Claude-Code transports, intake) + P3 (build/dispatch/verify subgraph) + P4 (more transports + GitHub-issue intake) are built, reviewed, and merged to main. The CI apply/verify workflow is LIVE + provisioned (the agent-apply environment, the AGENT_APPLY_APP_* secrets, and dispatched runs all exist as of 2026-06-22). The box-side integration that drives it (run_id capture, the BUILD → DISPATCH → VERIFY reorder, async CI-watch, and the fail-safe bound serve default) is built on this branch but gated behind the C1 re-review — the /sh-security-review + mandatory GPT-4.1 cross-review of the new CI-trigger boundary — before it ships to the box. See the project memory project_r720_agent_team and §7 of the design (and docs/P3-PHASE0-DESIGN.md) for the phased rollout.

The Claude Code plugin lives in a sibling top-level dir, ../sea-haven-claude-plugin/ (CLAUDE.md, settings.template.json, hooks/user_prompt_submit.py): a UserPromptSubmit hook that forwards /delegate <task> prompts from Claude Code to the HTTP API's POST /tasks (env AGENT_TEAM_API_URL / AGENT_TEAM_API_TOKEN).

The top directory is kebab-case (agent-team/); the importable package is snake_case (agent_team/), per the engineering handbook.

Key design points

• Durable human gate (§3.3.1). The pending_questions ledger is the single source of truth for the question lifecycle. Every race (duplicate answers, transport redelivery, answer-vs-timeout) resolves via one atomic compare-and-set against status, inside a BEGIN IMMEDIATE transaction — first-answer-wins (rowcount == 1), late/duplicate ignored. The LangGraph SqliteSaver checkpointer shares the same DB file.
• Fail-safe model seams. Every node treats model output as untrusted and fails SAFE: garbage never clears the 98% clarifier gate, never auto-approves a plan, never fabricates a build success, and the verifier's ci_gate is the sole PASS authority (the LLM is structurally a fix-proposer only).
• Inbound auth (§3.3.1). The Slack Socket Mode listener authorizes the sender against an owner allowlist (AGENT_TEAM_SLACK_OWNER_IDS, fail-closed) on top of the open-status CAS anti-replay.
• Billing seam (§3.1). Claude runs under subscription OAuth on the box; GPT-4.1 (review) and DeepSeek (builders) route through the local orchestrator run.py. Switching Claude billing is a config flip.

Status dashboard (WebUI)

A read-only LAN dashboard (FastAPI, 0.0.0.0:8770, no auth, mode=ro ledger opens) for watching the pipeline. Served by agent_team.dashboard (systemd unit agent-team-status.service):

• Live pipeline map — a React Flow graph auto-laid-out from the real LangGraph (topology.py introspects compiled.get_graph() + a NODE_META display sidecar). Adding an agent node in graph.py makes it appear on the map with no manual coordinates; nodes group into trees (processes) branching off intake. Node color = live state; loop-back edges (review→plan, verify→build) render dashed.
• Click-through task history — selecting a task opens a timeline of its journey through each node (entry/exit timestamps, per-node duration, per-stage cost, Q&A, verdicts, plan), backed by the task_transitions ledger (schema v3) written by the coordinator's instrumented graph nodes (db/transitions.py, fail-soft).

Endpoints: GET /api/state (live overview + per-node state), GET /api/topology (map nodes/edges/trees), GET /api/task/{thread_id} (one task's history; thread_id is validated ^[A-Za-z0-9_-]{1,64}$). The legacy stdlib HTML page was retired; status_page.py remains as the /api/state data layer.

Build (on the Mac — the box Node is too old for Vite 5+):

cd agent-team/web
npm ci && npm run build          # -> web/dist (gitignored), rsynced to the VM
npm test                         # Vitest + React Testing Library

In dev, npm run dev proxies /api to a locally running dashboard (AGENT_TEAM_DASH, default http://127.0.0.1:8770).

WS0–WS5 rollout glossary

The "WS-rollout" (workstreams 0–5) layered HTTP/integration surfaces onto the P1–P4 pipeline. What is live vs inert after the rollout:

WS	What it adds	Live?
WS1	invoker_multi.py (in-process GPT-4.1 / DeepSeek / Gemini via the orchestrator's models.py) + api.py (FastAPI HTTP API, bearer auth via AGENT_TEAM_API_TOKEN, binds 127.0.0.1:8765, /docs+/openapi disabled, concurrency-capped)	bind_multi_invoker() wired in run-team.py _cmd_serve (LIVE); the HTTP API is a separate opt-in process (api.serve()), NOT started by the coordinator
WS5	nodes/handbook.py load_handbook_conventions (reads SEA_HAVEN_HANDBOOK_DIR or ~/.sea-haven/engineering-handbook, fail-safe → ""); retriever.py save_memory writes to a _box-drafts/ review queue	LIVE — the planner prompt receives the handbook via the context_provider seam in run-team.py _build_coordinator
WS2/WS0/WS4	Slack /new-task slash command (AUTHZ-01 owner-allowlist gated) → Coordinator.set_new_task_callback; the sea-haven-claude-plugin/ (CLAUDE.md, settings, /delegate UserPromptSubmit hook)	LIVE (/new-task wired in serve); the plugin/HTTP-API path is opt-in
WS3 / P3	nodes/dispatch_invoker.py (DISPATCH LangGraph node) + the BUILD → DISPATCH → VERIFY reorder, the tick()-driven CI-watcher, per-task run_id plumbing, and the bound serve default	Built on feat/agent-team-p3-box-integration, gated behind the C1 re-review before it ships to the box. The agent-apply GitHub Environment human-approval gate is KEPT; dispatch is operator-initiated (the box holds no standing write token — the branch push + gh workflow run use operator-host credentials). The bound P3 wiring is the new fail-safe serve default: a missing AGENT_TEAM_REPO_OWNER/_NAME or CI-read token degrades to the INERT P3 path (task parks + a #agent-team notice), never a serve-start crash

The HTTP API endpoints: POST /tasks (start a task), GET /tasks/{thread_id} (status), POST /orchestrator/invoke (one-shot model invoke). See DEPLOY-R720.md for the WS-rollout deploy (scripts/deploy-r720-ws-rollout.sh).
