/** * # session/day — the STEPPED session (the agent-day of EVALUATION.md Part 1) * * The supervised, wake-by-wake run of a single session in ONE process (RUNTIME §7 + EVALUATION * Part 1). Where {@link runSimSession} drives a bus straight through with a fixed document set, * {@link runDaySession} drives the SAME {@link SessionCore} but pauses at wake checkpoints and * hands control to an **external author** (an agent in another process) through a **file * handshake**: it writes a Frame + a machine summary to the run directory, then BLOCKS for the * author's reply (a revised document, or an explicit pass) before continuing. The revised document * **supersedes** the standing one (RUNTIME §5, "document supersession"). * * ## The handshake protocol (files under ``) * 1. `briefing.txt` — the OPEN keyframe, written before the first event. The runner then BLOCKS * for `plans-0.kestrel` (the day's authored plan document), parses + arms it. * 2. At each wake `n` (authored triggers + the structural cadence into the close), the runner * drives events up to the wake's sim-time, then writes `frame--.txt` (a delta Frame: * tape since the last vantage, positions, resting, fills, budget, plan states) and * `state-.json` (the machine summary), and BLOCKS for either `revision-.kestrel` * (supersede) OR `pass-` (an empty file = no change). * 3. After the last wake it drives to settle, writes `report.json`, and the caller records the run * with the FULL concatenated authored text as `plansText`. * * ## The injected-time boundary (documented, deliberate) — a LATENCY-BLIND clause * The **sim clock is entirely injected** from the bus (`now` = the current event's `ts`, RUNTIME * §0) — the graded computation reads no wall clock. The **host wait loop** (polling the filesystem * for the author's reply, and the `--max-wait` safety timeout) DOES read the host wall clock: it is * an out-of-band author interaction, not part of the graded computation. Determinism is unaffected * because the graded output is a pure function of `(bus, wake set, handshake file contents)` — how * long the host waited never enters it. With identical revision files pre-staged, a re-run replays * byte-identically (the certification test asserts this). * * **This "host wall-clock wait is off the graded clock" clause is scoped to LATENCY-BLIND sessions** * (ADR-0040 / clock-honest-wakes §3, RUNTIME §7 edit). `runDaySession` reaches the driver * ({@link runSimulateSession}) with `BACKTEST_CONFIG` — a NO-LLM config that declares no `clockHonest` * — so a stepped DAY is always latency-blind today: no deliberation record, the `--max-wait` poll never * touches the graded tape, and the frozen `44cf2cbf` reference is preserved byte-for-byte. **There is no * transport special-case.** Were an operator to hand the driver a `clockHonest: true` config over an * eligible tape (§4 data floor), the SAME uniform driver seam that clocks an in-process `decide` * (`clockedTurn` in {@link runSimulateSession}) would clock the file-handshake `await` — the author's * wall time (the block-with-retries) becomes `measured_ms`, priced into the tape like any deliberation. * A handshake driven by a *human* would then grade terribly clock-honest; operators run those * latency-blind. The day driver does not special-case the file transport — the clock-honest eligibility * gate (not the handshake) decides admissibility, and this file threads no `now`/`clockHonest` of its * own (it inherits the driver's seam unchanged). See docs/design/clock-honest-wakes.md §3. * * ## Fail-closed (RUNTIME §8) * Missing META / no instruments / unknown fill model → refuse (via {@link SessionCore}). An * abandoned handshake (no reply within `--max-wait`) exits LOUDLY rather than hanging forever. A * malformed `plans-0` / `revision-n` document is a loud parse error (never a silent skip). * * ## No handshake wait is ever silent (kestrel-4fc9) * A blocked day must not look like a hung one. Before EVERY handshake block — the OPEN wait for * `plans-0` and each wake's wait for a `revision-`/`pass-` — the runner ANNOUNCES the contract on * the host status channel ({@link DayHooks.notify} → stderr): which artifact it just wrote, which file(s) * it now wants, and the budget it will actually enforce. While blocked (only ever under `--await-author`) * it emits a HEARTBEAT every {@link HEARTBEAT_MS}, so a day waiting on a slow author is observably * distinct from a hung process without truncating the real workflow. * * ## The default TERMINATES; the out-of-band author wait is OPT-IN (kestrel-4fc9, supersedes the 0.4.x default) * `kestrel day --dir {}` in a test that must stay quiet. */ notify(line: string): void; } const DEFAULT_HOOKS: DayHooks = { exists: (p) => existsSync(p), read: (p) => readFileSync(p, "utf8"), write: (p, c) => writeFileSync(p, c), // `Bun.sleepSync` only under Bun — the published CLI bundle runs the heavy verbs under PLAIN NODE // (kestrel-4fc9), where `Bun` is undefined.
