Automated Status Summary

Scope

The keepalive loop stops a PR with stop (tasks-complete) while unchecked task boxes are
visibly present in the PR body. Work then sits unclaimed behind a status line that says it is
finished — the same failure shape as #3433, in the reporting rather than the dispatch.

Measured 2026-09-14 on four PRs simultaneously:

PR Unchecked boxes in body Loop's verdict
stranske/Deliverable-Render #14 1 of 23 stop (tasks-complete)
stranske/Ready #570 2 of 7 stop (tasks-complete)

The loop's own state recorded tasks: {"total": 5, "unchecked": 0} for Ready #570 at a moment
when the body held nine - [ ] lines, four of them unchecked.

Related Issues/PRs

Tasks

  • Count unchecked tasks across the whole PR body, not only inside the summary block — or,
    if that is deliberate, make the loop say so: tasks-complete (summary block); N unchecked outside it. A status must not read as "finished" while it is ignoring visible work.
  • Preserve task lines added outside the summary block across a pr-meta regeneration
    instead of dropping them.
  • Document the actual contract in docs/keepalive/GoalsAndPlumbing.md: the source issue is
    the task of record, the summary block is derived, and edits to either propagate only on a
    pr-meta refresh.

Acceptance criteria

  • Named test: a PR body with an unchecked task outside the summary block does not yield
    tasks-complete.
  • Deliberate-break gate: restore whole-body counting to summary-only → the new test
    must FAIL → revert.

Validation

node --test .github/scripts/__tests__/keepalive-loop.test.js .github/scripts/__tests__/agents-pr-meta-update-body.test.js
237 passed, 0 failed

node --test .github/scripts/__tests__/*.test.js
1548 tests; 1547 passed; 0 failed; 1 skipped

python3 scripts/validate_template_completeness.py
All consumer workflows are properly templated and manifested

git diff --check
PASS

All three source/consumer script pairs match byte-for-byte. Regressions cover the checked-in root and consumer templates, reviewer tasks in Notes, hidden comments and fences, quoted tasks, and stale automerge removal before reporting state. Active review threads remain for independent disposition against the current head; no self-resolution or merge was performed.

Required deliberate-break gate: summary-only base fails, implementation passes

Deliberate-break demonstration — PASS

  • gate: node --test --test-name-pattern="outside|unchecked work|checkbox-bearing" .github/scripts/__tests__/keepalive-loop.test.js .github/scripts/__tests__/agents-pr-meta-update-body.test.js
  • base ref: origin/main
  • worktree: /Users/teacher/.codex/automations/pd-workloop-resume/worktrees/workflows-3441
  • candidate tests overlaid onto the base: .github/scripts/__tests__/keepalive-loop.test.js, .github/scripts/__tests__/agents-pr-meta-update-body.test.js

RED — the gate against the base implementation (origin/main with only the candidate tests overlaid). Exit code 1.

Closer recovery — fenced template examples

Audited prior head 719e8776d21c64c73fa3b66aa93c06004a4dfb7f and all six active findings. Five already have working fixes: stale automerge removal runs before summary output; quoted/nested tasks reach the shared visible scanner; root and consumer template controls are excluded; fence delimiters retain indentation and require at most three spaces plus a valid closing suffix. Existing named tests pass. These findings receive independent closer disposition.

Finding #3444 (comment) remained valid: stripPrTemplateControls removed lines inside fenced examples. The new patch tracks fences before matching controls in both source and consumer parser. It preserves quoted/nested examples, indented literal fences and non-closing fence suffixes, while still removing real controls after the fence. This newly authored fix remains for independent reviewer disposition; no self-resolution or merge.

Literal validation:

node --test --test-name-pattern='template controls preserve fenced examples' .github/scripts/__tests__/issue_scope_parser.test.js
Before production fix: exit 1; tests 12; pass 0; fail 12.

node --test .github/scripts/__tests__/issue_scope_parser.test.js .github/scripts/__tests__/keepalive-loop.test.js .github/scripts/__tests__/agents-pr-meta-update-body.test.js
After fix: exit 0; tests 308; pass 308; fail 0.

node --test .github/scripts/__tests__/*.test.js
exit 0; tests 1582; pass 1581; fail 0; skipped 1.

python3 scripts/validate_template_completeness.py
exit 0; all consumer workflows properly templated and manifested.
3 source/template script pairs byte-identical; git diff --check: exit 0.

Source #3441 HTML-comment counterexample was independently rechecked by temporarily restoring both production parsers from pre-recovery efb4639a while retaining current tests:

node --test --test-name-pattern='outside work after a fenced HTML comment opener|keeps fence and comment state separate' .github/scripts/__tests__/keepalive-loop.test.js .github/scripts/__tests__/issue_scope_parser.test.js
Old production parser: exit 1; tests 3; pass 0; fail 3.
Restored current parser plus new fence guards: exit 0; tests 15; pass 15; fail 0.

Original whole-body-versus-summary-only deliberate-break evidence remains above in the PR body. Source #3441 stays OPEN until independent review, exact-head/full expected and required checks, seven-minute review floor, guarded merge and durable verify:compare disposition. Fresh CI is asynchronous; the new head restarts the review floor.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds visibility-aware checklist parsing, preserves reviewer checkboxes during metadata refresh, and counts actionable checkboxes across the PR body. Keepalive now reconciles totals and rejects stale tasks-complete results when visible work remains.

Changes

Checklist reconciliation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Filter visible checklist content
.github/scripts/issue_scope_parser.js, templates/consumer-repo/.github/scripts/issue_scope_parser.js, .github/scripts/__tests__/issue_scope_parser.test.js
New helpers retain visible checklist text, remove comments and fenced content, strip nested quote prefixes, and remove designated template controls.
Preserve checklists during metadata refresh
.github/scripts/agents_pr_meta_update_body.js, templates/consumer-repo/.github/scripts/agents_pr_meta_update_body.js, .github/scripts/__tests__/agents-pr-meta-update-body.test.js
Checklist-bearing prefixes remain during status-summary regeneration. Tests cover template filtering, hidden examples, surrounding content, and repeated refreshes.
Count visible checklist work
.github/scripts/keepalive_loop.js, templates/consumer-repo/.github/scripts/keepalive_loop.js
Keepalive combines canonical sections with actionable visible tasks outside the managed summary. It revises stale completion results and removes automerge authorization while work remains.
Validate reconciliation behavior
.github/scripts/__tests__/keepalive-loop.test.js, docs/keepalive/GoalsAndPlumbing.md
Tests cover task placement, filtering, totals, persisted state, stale completion, and automerge removal. Documentation defines source ownership and visible checklist accounting.

Explanation

Issue #3441 requires whole-body visible task accounting, metadata-refresh preservation, documentation, and regression coverage. The changes implement these behaviors, including fence recognition before HTML-comment stripping and a keepalive regression with a fenced comment opener followed by a visible task. However, the new closed-comment and fence-only metadata tests still pass with the previous parser behavior. The required tests do not discriminate the new behavior from summary-only or old parser behavior.

Resolution

Update the relevant tests in .github/scripts/__tests__/agents-pr-meta-update-body.test.js so the closed-comment and fence cases fail with the previous parser. Include a fenced &lt;!-- opener, a visible unchecked task after the closing fence, and a later --&gt;. Keep the focused keepalive regression and preserve the fence-before-comment implementation.

P1 Badge Exclude the repository PR template from preserved tasks

When an agent-managed PR has the standard template before a managed marker, this condition preserves the entire prefix because .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md contains eleven checkboxes. The new whole-body counter then treats mutually exclusive Workflow Source and Automation intent options as delivery tasks, so the many intentionally unchecked options keep dispatching agents and prevent tasks-complete; distinguish known template content from genuinely reviewer-added checkbox sections instead of preserving any checkbox-bearing prefix.

  • Markdown also treats a four-space-indented list after a blank line as a code block. This sanitizer only removes fenced blocks and comments, so an indented example such as - [ ] Example only reaches extractChecklistItems and is counted as actionable work, even though it is not a delivery task. Handle indented/preformatted blocks before counting and add a regression for this form.

  • The new contract here conflicts with the data-flow text immediately below: line 234 still says the summary block is used to extract Tasks/Acceptance, and line 239 says keepalive extracts tasks from the summary only. Update those statements to say the summary is canonical for source sections while visible outside checkboxes are also included in the appendix and live counts, so the documented contract is internally consistent.
Keepalive includes those visible checkboxes in its dispatch decision, task appendix,
and live progress counts, so a completed summary cannot hide remaining PR work.

Revalidate visible tasks in the root automerge path.

In .github/scripts/keepalive_loop.js, updateKeepaliveLoopSummary reads and counts the PR body before the later github.rest.issues.addLabels call. A reviewer can add an unchecked task after that read. The keepalive concurrency group does not serialize reviewer edits with this API call.

The root merger in .github/workflows/reusable-70-orchestrator-main.yml does not check visible tasks. assertRuntimeAcMergeAllowed checks labels only. The root merger can therefore merge a PR after receiving stale automerge authorization.

Fetch and parse the current PR body before adding automerge, and add visible-task validation at the root merger's final merge boundary. The consumer template's agents-81-gate-followups.yml already performs initial and final unchecked-task checks, so this correction applies to the root implementation only.

Adversarial verification: NEEDS_WORK — one parser-ordering bug, otherwise good

I filed #3441 and reviewed this. The implementation is real and correctly wired into
evaluation, live recount and running-state selection (keepalive_loop.js:1476-1506, 2663, 3435, 4929), the consumer-template mirrors are in lockstep, and the documentation is there. Scope is
clean. This is close.

The bug

visibleChecklistContent strips HTML comments before it recognises code fences
(.github/scripts/issue_scope_parser.js:17-26). A literal <!-- inside a fenced block is
code, not a comment — but the stripper consumes everything from it through the next -->,
taking any genuine task in between with it.

Counterexample, which this PR would score as complete:

<!-- auto-status-summary:start -->
## Tasks
- [x] Done
<!-- auto-status-summary:end -->
```markdown
<!-- example text
```
- [ ] Real reviewer task
-->

The unchecked task is outside the fence and plainly visible, and it is exactly the kind of task
this PR exists to stop losing. Neither test suite covers the ordering.

Also worth tightening

The closed-comment and fence-only cases at
agents-pr-meta-update-body.test.js:1631-1635 would also pass under the old
"drop everything before the summary" behaviour, so they do not discriminate the new code from
the old.

Tasks

  • Extract fenced regions before stripping HTML comments, so a <!-- inside a fence is
    never treated as a comment opener. A Markdown-aware scanner is fine too.
  • Add the counterexample above as a regression test: the unchecked task must be counted.
  • Make the two non-discriminating pr-meta tests fail against the previous implementation, or
    drop them.

Everything else here I would merge as-is.

Closer coordination for the canonical metadata-loop defect blocking stranske/Fine-Art-Archive#723: I am preparing a separate bounded source recovery on codex/faa-723-metadata-loop from current main. It touches the self-observing workflow filter, exact-head workflow-status collection, focused regression tests, the identical consumer template and status-rendering docs. It does not change task extraction, checkbox reconciliation or this PR's implementation/head. Current #3444 head reviewed for overlap: 525b19d. Preserve this PR's task-accounting changes when either branch integrates current main.

Observed source defect: status body includes changing run links for Agents PR Event Hub and PR 46 Dependency Repair Contract; WORKFLOWS_APP writes each changed body and re-triggers the edited event every 45–55 seconds. Latest-100 metadata runs also crowd out a successful older Gate. Recovery tests will require stable rendering across metadata generations while preserving actual exact-head Gate state. Receiving owner: imi-merge-verify-closer; checkpoint 2026-09-14T18:00:00Z. No human action or consumer-branch change requested.

Opener review recovery dispatch on exact head 525b19d01e816363f14aed1247d7337af909097d. Current Gate passes. Reconcile the existing fixes against these active findings; patch only still-valid cases, validate focused regressions, and leave independent thread disposition to closer. This is automation-owned review work.

When a PR previously reached tasks-complete, it already carries automerge; adding an outside checkbox later reaches this branch, but only changes the summary action to wait and leaves that label intact. The root automerge sweep selects open PRs solely by that label in .github/workflows/reusable-70-orchestrator-main.yml:3383-3389 and can merge an unchanged, still-green head without consulting the new checkbox, so the newly recognized work can still be merged unfinished unless this path also removes or suspends the stale merge authorization.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

With a managed summary present, a reviewer-added visible task written as > - [ ] Follow up is missed because the outside scanner passes the raw blockquote-prefixed line to extractChecklistItems, whose pattern only accepts whitespace before the list marker. The canonical parser explicitly strips blockquote prefixes, but this new outside path does not, so such a visible unchecked task can still produce tasks-complete; normalize blockquote prefixes before scanning outside content as well.

Track quoted fences before removing blockquote prefixes.

In both visibleChecklistContent implementations, stripBlockquotePrefixes runs before fence tracking. This can expose a literal fence inside quoted code:

> ```markdown
>     ```
> - [ ] Example only
> ```

The indented fence is literal content, but prefix removal produces ````, which the^\s*(... regex treats as a closing fence. The checkbox then becomes visible work.

Parse each raw line with blockquote-aware fence rules before removing its prefix. Preserve the remaining indentation and apply the Markdown limit for fence indentation in both copies.

Exclude fenced code from template-control matching. A preserved prefix can contain literal Workflow Source examples. The current filter deletes matching lines from those examples and changes the PR body.

  • .github/scripts/issue_scope_parser.js#L38-L38: skip heading and checkbox control matching while inside fenced code.
  • templates/consumer-repo/.github/scripts/issue_scope_parser.js#L38-L38: apply the same fenced-code exclusion in the consumer template copy.

Closer recovery — fenced template examples

Audited prior head 719e8776d21c64c73fa3b66aa93c06004a4dfb7f and all six active findings. Five already have working fixes: stale automerge removal runs before summary output; quoted/nested tasks reach the shared visible scanner; root and consumer template controls are excluded; fence delimiters retain indentation and require at most three spaces plus a valid closing suffix. Existing named tests pass. These findings receive independent closer disposition.

Finding #3444 (comment) remained valid: stripPrTemplateControls removed lines inside fenced examples. The new patch tracks fences before matching controls in both source and consumer parser. It preserves quoted/nested examples, indented literal fences and non-closing fence suffixes, while still removing real controls after the fence. This newly authored fix remains for independent reviewer disposition; no self-resolution or merge.

Literal validation:

node --test --test-name-pattern='template controls preserve fenced examples' .github/scripts/__tests__/issue_scope_parser.test.js
Before production fix: exit 1; tests 12; pass 0; fail 12.

node --test .github/scripts/__tests__/issue_scope_parser.test.js .github/scripts/__tests__/keepalive-loop.test.js .github/scripts/__tests__/agents-pr-meta-update-body.test.js
After fix: exit 0; tests 308; pass 308; fail 0.

node --test .github/scripts/__tests__/*.test.js
exit 0; tests 1582; pass 1581; fail 0; skipped 1.

python3 scripts/validate_template_completeness.py
exit 0; all consumer workflows properly templated and manifested.
3 source/template script pairs byte-identical; git diff --check: exit 0.

Source #3441 HTML-comment counterexample was independently rechecked by temporarily restoring both production parsers from pre-recovery efb4639a while retaining current tests:

node --test --test-name-pattern='outside work after a fenced HTML comment opener|keeps fence and comment state separate' .github/scripts/__tests__/keepalive-loop.test.js .github/scripts/__tests__/issue_scope_parser.test.js
Old production parser: exit 1; tests 3; pass 0; fail 3.
Restored current parser plus new fence guards: exit 0; tests 15; pass 15; fail 0.

Original whole-body-versus-summary-only deliberate-break evidence remains above in the PR body. Source #3441 stays OPEN until independent review, exact-head/full expected and required checks, seven-minute review floor, guarded merge and durable verify:compare disposition. Fresh CI is asynchronous; the new head restarts the review floor.

Closer disposition — r4005282507 (fenced template-control matching)

Head: 5f83dccdfa1e3532429b8d0c639632e06fe49fe9

Independently verified at stripPrTemplateControls in both .github/scripts/issue_scope_parser.js and the consumer template copy:

  • Fence state is tracked before any heading/checkbox template-control matching (fence variable at lines 59–73).
  • Lines inside a fenced block are preserved unchanged (if (fence) return true).
  • Regression tests template controls preserve fenced examples cover ``` and ~~~ fences with plain, >, and `> >` quote prefixes in both parser copies (52/52 `issue_scope_parser` tests PASS locally).

The finding is addressed on this head; resolving the thread for merge.

  • Summary: The implementation addresses the reported false tasks-complete outcome by updating keepalive task accounting to consider task boxes in the full PR body rather than only the generated summary. The associated keepalive-loop tests add coverage for unchecked tasks outside the summary block, directly satisfying the named acceptance criterion and providing the expected regression protection against reverting to summary-only counting. The pr-meta body-generation changes and corresponding tests address preservation of externally added task lines during regeneration. Documentation updates describe the intended source-of-record/derived-summary contract and refresh behavior. The changes are mirrored in the consumer template where applicable, reducing template drift risk. The implementation and test coverage appear complete for the stated requirements.

New test files (keepalive-loop.test.js +348, issue_scope_parser.test.js +56, agents-pr-meta-contract-status.test.js, agents-pr-meta-status-idempotence.test.js) provide substantial coverage matching the named-test acceptance criterion. All CI suites relevant to this repo (pr-11-ci-smoke, selftest-ci) passed on the merge commit, and pr-00-gate shows all completed jobs succeeding. However, the full diff was truncated during review, preventing direct verification of the exact counting logic and the deliberate-break-gate validation step. The PR also bundles substantial unrelated changes (autofix workflow rewrites, runner_lib, cancelled-gate tests) that expand scope beyond the stated keepalive fix, which is a quality/maintainability concern though not disqualifying given passing CI and the presence of targeted tests for the keepalive concern itself.
  • Concerns:
    • The full diff was truncated in review, so the exact logic change in issue_scope_parser.js/keepalive_loop.js for whole-body task counting and the 'deliberate-break gate' test could not be directly inspected — verification relies on file-level evidence (new keepalive-loop.test.js with 348 lines, issue_scope_parser.js +86 lines, agents_pr_meta_update_body.js +106 lines) rather than confirmed logic.
    • The PR bundles a large amount of seemingly unrelated changes (autofix.yml, agents-autofix-loop.yml, agents-81-gate-followups.yml, runner_lib/core.py, test_autofix_cancelled_gate.py with 573 new lines, sync-manifest.yml, template-drift-allowlist.txt) alongside the keepalive fix, which increases review risk and reduces confidence that all changes are properly scoped/tested together.
    • Cannot directly confirm the acceptance criterion 'deliberate-break gate: revert to summary-only counting → new test must FAIL → revert' was actually exercised in CI, since this is a manual verification step typically done during development, not preserved in the final diff.
    • Duplication across .github/scripts and templates/consumer-repo/.github/scripts (parallel copies of agents_pr_meta_update_body.js, issue_scope_parser.js, keepalive_loop.js) increases maintenance risk if kept manually in sync rather than via generation/sync tooling.

Closer completion — source #3441

Durable provider report #3444 (comment) is PASS/PASS. Source #3441 is already CLOSED. Fresh complete review-thread page contains zero active non-outdated findings.

Audited the report caveats against the current PR file list and retained exact-head evidence. The final PR changes ten files: the three task-accounting parsers/handlers and their consumer copies, three test files, and GoalsAndPlumbing.md. The report mentions autofix workflows, runner_lib and cancelled-gate tests, but those are absent from this PR's final file list; they were base-branch context, not unresolved scope debt. Source/template mirroring is intentional and validated by the template completeness gate.

The body and #3444 (comment) retain actual deliberate-break failures and restored passes: original summary-only comparison, source-author fenced HTML-comment counterexample (3 failures), and fenced template examples (12 failures), followed by 308 focused passes and 1581 full JavaScript passes with one skip. Independent final-thread disposition is retained at #3444 (comment). These address the provider's truncated-view and missing-development-evidence caveats. No remaining review or acceptance debt found; source #3441 and this completion chain are terminal.
