# Nightly SOTA research agent
|
|
|
|
`nightly-sota-agent.yml` turns recent public research into at most one
|
|
repository issue and, for low-risk topics, one draft offline-prototype pull
|
|
request. It is intentionally not a general-purpose autonomous coding agent.
|
|
|
|
## Enablement
|
|
|
|
The committed schedule is `03:17 UTC` every day. Scheduled runs stay disabled
|
|
until both repository settings exist:
|
|
|
|
1. Actions secret `COGNITUM_NIGHTLY_API_KEY`, issued with only the Cognitum
|
|
`completions:mid` scope.
|
|
2. Actions variable `RUVIEW_NIGHTLY_SOTA_ENABLED=true`.
|
|
|
|
The key must not receive guidance-write, evolve, pods, brain, Flywheel-write,
|
|
or administrative scopes. First run the workflow manually in `dry-run` mode;
|
|
that mode only collects a bounded evidence artifact and never reads the secret
|
|
or writes an issue. Manual `live` mode is restricted to the repository owner.
|
|
|
|
The repository must also allow GitHub Actions to create pull requests. Normal
|
|
branch protection must require at least one approving review and the
|
|
`Verify contributor harness` status check. The publisher requires that exact
|
|
job-name check to be bound to the GitHub Actions app,
|
|
uses GitHub's effective-active-rules endpoint, and stops before prototype
|
|
generation when either requirement is absent. It does not request an
|
|
administrative token to inspect hidden ruleset bypass actors; safety does not
|
|
depend on that metadata because the publisher has no merge or `main`-push path.
|
|
|
|
## Authority split
|
|
|
|
| Job | External credential | Repository authority | Result |
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
|
|
| `collect` | none | contents read | Normalized public Cognitum registry and recent arXiv evidence |
|
|
| `propose` | Cognitum completions key | contents read | One schema-checked proposal |
|
|
| `score` | none | contents read | Frozen Darwin digest, completeness score, honest-null Flywheel replay |
|
|
| `issue` | GitHub token | issue write, PR read | One deduplicated issue |
|
|
| `implement` | Cognitum completions key | contents read | Declarative transform and test vectors |
|
|
| `validate` | none | contents read | Schema, template, syntax, claim, path, digest, and replay checks |
|
|
| `publish` | GitHub token | branch/issue/draft-PR/Actions write | One draft PR and an explicit read-only harness-verifier dispatch |
|
|
|
|
The Cognitum key and a write-capable GitHub token never coexist in one job.
|
|
Model output is never executable code. Repository-owned templates emit the
|
|
prototype module and tests, which this workflow syntax-checks but never runs.
|
|
|
|
## Hard boundaries
|
|
|
|
- Public HTTPS sources are fixed to the Cognitum application registry and the
|
|
arXiv Atom API. Redirects, oversized responses, unexpected media types, and
|
|
schema drift fail closed.
|
|
- Retrieved text is `CLAIMED`, untrusted evidence. It is quoted inside a fixed
|
|
trusted prompt and cannot grant authority.
|
|
- The Darwin genome is read-only. Scheduled jobs never invoke Darwin evolution.
|
|
- Flywheel runs a separate committed honest-null canary. A valid canary stays
|
|
root-only, rejects its candidate, and reports zero verified improvements and
|
|
no promotion. It does not evaluate the nightly proposal. The workflow's
|
|
static authority split and artifact gates are what prevent nightly learning
|
|
or promotion.
|
|
- High-risk topics stop at an issue. This includes production, security,
|
|
authentication, release/deployment, workflows, dependencies, firmware,
|
|
hardware, networking, native plugins, HomeKit pairing, and voice protocols.
|
|
- Low-risk model output is a closed transform DSL: bounded scalar test vectors
|
|
and 1-8 allowlisted operations (`center`, `normalize-peak`, `absolute`,
|
|
`square`, `difference`, `moving-average`, or `clip`). Local trusted templates
|
|
emit exactly five `.md`, `.json`, and `.mjs` files below
|
|
`examples/research-sota/nightly/<fingerprint>/`. Existing files, symlinked
|
|
parents, dependencies, binaries, executable modes, and more than 400 lines
|
|
are rejected.
|
|
- Publication is a draft PR. The agent cannot approve, merge, release, promote,
|
|
or modify the reviewed shared brain.
|
|
|
|
## Deduplication and failure behavior
|
|
|
|
The stable fingerprint hashes sorted evidence IDs, finding class, and subsystem.
|
|
Issues and PRs carry an exact hidden marker. Only markers on
|
|
`github-actions[bot]` records with the automation label are trusted for
|
|
deduplication, so copied issue text cannot suppress future runs.
|
|
|
|
A failure leaves the last completed bounded artifact for seven days. Model,
|
|
protection-preflight, or validation failures may leave an issue without a PR;
|
|
maintainers can inspect the run and decide whether to continue manually. The
|
|
workflow does not retry a failed model call, force-push a branch, close an
|
|
issue, or delete a branch.
