# 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 or escalate to a human via Matrix.
|
|
|
|
**Trigger**: `gardener-run.sh` runs 4x/day via cron. It creates a tmux
|
|
session with `claude --model sonnet`, injects `formulas/run-gardener.toml`
|
|
with escalation replies as context, monitors the phase file, and cleans up
|
|
on completion or timeout (2h max session). No action issues — the gardener
|
|
runs directly from cron like the planner, predictor, and supervisor.
|
|
|
|
**Key files**:
|
|
- `gardener/gardener-run.sh` — Cron wrapper + orchestrator: lock, memory guard,
|
|
consumes escalation replies, sources disinto project config, creates tmux session,
|
|
injects formula prompt, monitors phase file, handles crash recovery via
|
|
`run_formula_and_monitor`, executes pending-actions manifest after PR merge
|
|
- `formulas/run-gardener.toml` — Execution spec: preflight, grooming, dust-bundling, blocked-review, 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**:
|
|
- `CODEBERG_TOKEN`, `CODEBERG_REPO`, `CODEBERG_API`, `PROJECT_NAME`, `PROJECT_REPO_ROOT`
|
|
- `PRIMARY_BRANCH`, `CLAUDE_MODEL` (set to sonnet by gardener-run.sh)
|
|
- `MATRIX_TOKEN`, `MATRIX_ROOM_ID`, `MATRIX_HOMESERVER`
|
|
|
|
**Lifecycle**: gardener-run.sh (cron 0,6,12,18) → lock + memory guard →
|
|
consume escalation replies → load formula + context → create tmux session →
|
|
Claude grooms backlog (writes proposed actions to manifest), bundles dust,
|
|
reviews blocked issues, updates AGENTS.md, commits manifest + docs to PR →
|
|
review-agent reviews all proposed actions → after merge, gardener-run.sh
|
|
executes manifest actions via API → `PHASE:done`.
