# Gardener Agent
|
|
|
|
**Role**: Backlog grooming — detect duplicate issues, missing acceptance
|
|
criteria, oversized issues, stale issues, and circular dependencies. Enforces
|
|
the quality gate: strips the `backlog` label from issues that lack acceptance
|
|
criteria checkboxes (`- [ ]`) or an `## Affected files` section. Invokes
|
|
Claude to fix what it can; files vault items for what it cannot.
|
|
|
|
**Trigger**: `gardener-run.sh` is invoked by the polling loop in `docker/agents/entrypoint.sh`
|
|
every 6 hours (iteration math at line 182-194). Sources `lib/guard.sh` and calls
|
|
`check_active gardener` first — skips if `$FACTORY_ROOT/state/.gardener-active` is absent.
|
|
**Early-exit optimization**: if no issues, PRs, or repo files have changed since the last
|
|
run (checked via Forgejo API and `git diff`), the model is not invoked — the run exits
|
|
immediately (no tmux session, no tokens consumed). Otherwise, creates a tmux session with
|
|
`claude --model sonnet`, injects `formulas/run-gardener.toml` as context, monitors the
|
|
phase file, and cleans up on completion or timeout (2h max session). No action issues —
|
|
the gardener runs as part of the polling loop alongside the planner, predictor, and supervisor.
|
|
|
|
**Key files**:
|
|
- `gardener/gardener-run.sh` — Polling loop participant + orchestrator: lock, memory guard,
|
|
sources disinto project config, creates tmux session, injects formula prompt,
|
|
monitors phase file via custom `_gardener_on_phase_change` callback (passed to
|
|
`run_formula_and_monitor`). Stays alive through CI/review/merge cycle after
|
|
`PHASE:awaiting_ci` — injects CI results and review feedback, re-signals
|
|
`PHASE:awaiting_ci` after fixes, signals `PHASE:awaiting_review` on CI pass.
|
|
Executes pending-actions manifest after PR merge.
|
|
- `formulas/run-gardener.toml` — Execution spec: preflight, grooming, dust-bundling,
|
|
agents-update, commit-and-pr
|
|
- `gardener/pending-actions.json` — Manifest of deferred repo actions (label changes,
|
|
closures, comments, issue creation). Written during grooming steps, committed to the
|
|
PR, reviewed alongside AGENTS.md changes, executed by gardener-run.sh after merge.
|
|
|
|
**Environment variables consumed**:
|
|
- `FORGE_TOKEN`, `FORGE_GARDENER_TOKEN` (falls back to FORGE_TOKEN), `FORGE_REPO`, `FORGE_API`, `PROJECT_NAME`, `PROJECT_REPO_ROOT`
|
|
- `PRIMARY_BRANCH`, `CLAUDE_MODEL` (set to sonnet by gardener-run.sh)
|
|
|
|
**Lifecycle**: gardener-run.sh (invoked by polling loop every 6h, `check_active gardener`) →
|
|
lock + memory guard → load formula + context → create tmux session →
|
|
Claude grooms backlog (writes proposed actions to manifest), bundles dust,
|
|
updates AGENTS.md, commits manifest + docs to PR →
|
|
`PHASE:awaiting_ci` (stays alive) → CI pass → `PHASE:awaiting_review` →
|
|
review feedback → address + re-signal → merge → gardener-run.sh executes
|
|
manifest actions via API → `PHASE:done`. When blocked on external resources
|
|
or human decisions, files a vault item instead of escalating.
