from real sittings

Not just this diff. Six more it stopped.

  1. 01
    security · P1

    The health check passed an open firewall.

    A leftover rule let sandboxes reach host SSH. The check said healthy, and the work had been called done.

    codexa private project
  2. 02
    security · design

    A reinstalled plugin would inherit every grant.

    Permissions were keyed on the plugin's name: same name, same powers. Caught before any code was written.

    claudecodexshux #33 ↗
  3. 03
    data loss · P1

    A truncated recording, still marked lossless.

    Two names for one file, a case alias or a hard link, let a second pane overwrite a live recording.

    codexshux #238 ↗
  4. 04
    process safety · blocker

    The reaper could kill a stranger.

    It signalled a saved process group after the leader was gone; whoever reused the pid took the SIGKILL.

    wrong result · major

    A timed-out chair exited 0.

    The fallback chair hid the timeout, so callers read success. codex caught it; grok did not.

    said done, wasn't · overclaim

    “All four sites are guarded.” Two were.

    grok, reviewing the branch that made it the default, broke the config and watched zero tests fail.

why more than one

Neither model found them all.

Self-review rarely fixes reasoning.1

Judges favour their own answers.23

A mixed panel judges better than one model.45

for the human watching

Watch it deliberate.

Each stage, each agent, live in your terminal. Your agent asks for --json and gets none of this.

for the agent calling it

A contract, not a chat.

--json

Exactly one document on stdout. Logs stay on stderr.

schema_version: 1

On every JSON document. Fields are added, never renamed.

exit 0 2 3 4 5 6

One code per caller action. Branch on it; never parse prose.

--progress-file

NDJSON to tail while it runs. The last line holds the exit code.

status --json

Which agents are installed and answering, before you plan.

--timeout

A budget per call, a ceiling per run. Both exit 4 and say which fired.

SIGTERM

Every agent stops first. The run still records how it ended.

your defaults

One file sets the rules.

Each seat's model and effort, the chair, the budgets. A flag overrides any of it for one run.
