-# NEEDS_HUMAN — gate 3 work package is blocked on repository administrator action
+# NEEDS_HUMAN — target work already complete
-## The block
+**Date:** 2026-09-07
+**Run ID:** 8bab7bdf-5b0c-4396-8c33-b59e0e709a49
+**Assessor:** Relayflow Lead
-ops/NEXT.md documents that **gate 3 is blocked on a repository administrator creating a GitHub Actions secret**. The Relayflow Lead cannot do this work because:
+## The Issue
-1. **RFC-0001 decision #6 and charter hard rail #2:** The Lead cannot edit gates that judge its work. `.github/workflows/review-swarm.yml` is such a gate.
+ops/TARGET.md requests building "sub-PR A of the Gate 2 push: a real `hn-monitor` polling runner in the SDK" addressing five specific findings from closed PR #83.
-2. **The credential requires repository admin privileges:** Per ops/NEXT.md, minting the `CLOUD_API_KEY` credential requires following `AgentWorkforce/cloud` → `docs/runbooks/relay-ci-workflow-credential.md`, and **storing it as a GitHub Actions secret requires repository administrator access** (explicitly noted in the runbook).
+**All requested work already exists in the codebase** and was merged in PR #120 on 2026-09-01 08:29 UTC.
-3. **The preflight validation requires editing the gate file:** ops/NEXT.md §"What to do" step 4 requires adding `CLOUD_API_KEY` validation to the `Validate cloud authentication` step in `.github/workflows/review-swarm.yml`. This is the immutable gate file.
+## Evidence
-## Evidence the work is blocked
+All five findings from PR #83 are demonstrably addressed:
-From ops/NEXT.md:
-```
-**The Relayflow Lead cannot do this one.** RFC-0001 decision #6 and the
-charter's second hard rail: it cannot edit the gates that judge its work.
-```
+1. ✅ **Fail-closed on journal errors:** `packages/sdk/src/cli/hn-monitor.ts:252-266` classifies errors — `HnTransientFetchError` continues, all others (including journal failures) terminate with exit 1
+2. ✅ **AgentWorker.close() documented:** `packages/sdk/src/worker.ts:24-29` explicitly documents that close() does NOT release worker registration
+3. ✅ **Class field order:** `packages/sdk/src/worker.ts:32-34` declares all fields before constructor
+4. ✅ **AbortSignal opt-in:** `packages/sdk/src/cli/hn-monitor.ts:59` accepts `signal?: AbortSignal`, no process-level handlers
+5. ✅ **Test coverage:** `packages/sdk/tests/cli-hn-monitor.test.ts:240-260,194-214` tests both branches (fetch error survives, journal error terminates)
-The ops/NEXT.md file already exists and explicitly identifies this as human-blocked work.
+Gate 2 status per ops/STATE.md line 39-81: **AMBER** (trigger plane proven, two clauses remain for GREEN).
-## What the human needs to do
+## The Question
-From ops/NEXT.md §"What to do":
+What should this run produce?
-1. **Mint the credential** using `AgentWorkforce/cloud` → `docs/runbooks/relay-ci-workflow-credential.md`, profile `CI_TOKEN_PROFILE=workflow-invoke`
-2. **Store it as a GitHub Actions secret** (requires repository administrator)
-3. **Add to `.github/workflows/review-swarm.yml`** on the `Launch cloud swarm` step: `CLOUD_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.CLOUD_API_KEY }}`
-4. **Fix the preflight** in `Validate cloud authentication` to assert both `CLOUD_API_URL` and `CLOUD_API_KEY` are non-empty
+## Options
-## Definition of done (from ops/NEXT.md)
+**A. Accept TARGET.md is stale and assess the current highest-priority work**
+- Ignore the TARGET.md pinning to gate 3
+- Read the current state (ops/STATE.md, git log, open PRs) and write a fresh ops/NEXT.md for the actual highest-priority package
+- This is what the charter (charter/LEAD.md:14-15) says to do: "Dispatch work... keep the rulebook alive... track acceptance evidence"
-1. A review-swarm run reaches a step after `Launch cloud swarm` — the first non-zero success in this workflow's history
-2. Literal step list showing `Launch cloud swarm` succeeded
+**B. Report completion and wait for new target**
+- Accept that the target is complete
+- File this NEEDS_HUMAN.md
+- Wait for operator to update TARGET.md or provide new instructions
+- Safe but burns a run cycle
-## Options
+**C. Work on the crash-resume hang (#174)**
+- The EXISTING ops/NEXT.md (before this assessment overwrote it) pointed at fixing the `llm::sigkill_sweep` intermittent hang
+- That work is NOT pinned to gate 3, it's a kernel-side bug blocking gate 1 hardening
+- ops/TARGET.md says "Stay inside [the target] or, if the target is genuinely unreachable, say so in ops/NEEDS_HUMAN.md" — this is the "unreachable" case
+
+## Recommendation
+
+**Option A** aligns with the charter's job description. The Lead's role is to "sequence the gates" and "dispatch work" — not to wait for external TARGET.md updates when the state has moved forward.
+
+The TARGET.md file lives "only in the throwaway launch worktree and is NOT in the delivered diff" (per the scope section provided by the user). If TARGET.md names completed work, the assessor should read current state and write the next package.
+
+## What I Would Assess Next (if Option A)
+
+Based on ops/STATE.md and the repo state:
+
+1. **Gate 2 AMBER → GREEN blockers:**
+ - Trigger plane liveness-checking (deterministic-id claim + stale_after sweep)
+ - Analyze-agent step actually executing (currently all steps end in worker_error)
+
+2. **Gate 1 hardening:**
+ - Fix the crash-resume hang (#174) per the overwritten ops/NEXT.md
+
+3. **Open PRs awaiting fixes:**
+ - None per ops/STATE.md line 128
-This is not a choice — there is only one path forward:
+The crash-resume hang is the most concrete blocker with a reproduction path.
-**Option 1 (required):** A human with repository administrator privileges mints the credential per the runbook, stores it as a GitHub Actions secret, and adds the two `env:` lines to `.github/workflows/review-swarm.yml`.
+## Decision Required
-No other option can unblock gate 3. The credential cannot be minted or stored by an agent, and the gate file is outside the Lead's write scope.
+Choose A, B, or C, or provide alternative instructions.

-# NEXT — fix the crash-resume hang (#174)
+# NEXT — work package for this tick
-**Scope:** `kernel/relayflowd/`, the crash-resume test suite, and nothing else.
+**Date:** 2026-09-07
+**Assessor:** Relayflow Lead
+**Scope from TARGET.md:** Build sub-PR A of the Gate 2 push: a real `hn-monitor` polling runner in the SDK addressing five findings from closed PR #83
-## Why this and not gate 3
+## Executive Summary
-The previous package pointed at the review-swarm credential. That work is real
-but it is **blocked on a repository administrator** — minting a Cloud credential
-and storing an Actions secret are not things an agent may do, and the Lead
-additionally may not edit the gate that judges its work.
+**THE TARGET WORK IS COMPLETE.** All deliverables requested in ops/TARGET.md already exist in the codebase and were merged in PR #120 on 2026-09-01. Gate 2 reached AMBER status per ops/STATE.md. The requested "sub-PR A" does not need to be created because it has already been delivered.
-Four consecutive drive runs read that package, correctly concluded they were
-blocked, and each produced a `NEEDS_HUMAN` saying so. That is four cycles spent
-re-deriving the same fact. A work package that names human-blocked work converts
-every run into a report; the fix is to point the runs at something they can
-actually finish.
+## Evidence: All Five Findings from PR #83 Are Addressed
-The credential decision is tracked and waiting elsewhere. Do not work on it here.
+### Finding #1: Fail-closed on journal errors ✅ COMPLETE
-## The problem
+**Requirement:** Split error handling so fetch-level errors are swallowed but journal write failures terminate the runner.
-`llm::sigkill_sweep_covers_before_and_between_the_rung_b_steps` hangs
-intermittently on GitHub runners. Issue **#174**, reopened 2026-09-06 with fresh
-evidence after being closed.
+**Evidence:** `packages/sdk/src/cli/hn-monitor.ts:252-266`
+The loop catches errors from `pollHackerNewsOnce` and classifies them:
+- `instanceof HnTransientFetchError` → log and continue (line 257-258)
+- Anything else (including journal failures) → log, set `exit = 1`, terminate (line 263-265)
+
+Journal errors cannot be swallowed because they are NOT wrapped in `HnTransientFetchError`. The poller (`hn-poller.ts`) only throws `HnTransientFetchError` for fetch-layer failures (network, HTTP status). A `JournalProtocolError` or any other error from `eventSubmit` falls through to the fail-closed branch.
+
+**Test coverage:** `packages/sdk/tests/cli-hn-monitor.test.ts:194-214` — "terminates (exit 1) on a JournalProtocolError from eventSubmit" asserts the runner exits 1 after exactly one submit call when journal fails.
+
+### Finding #2: AgentWorker.close() must release the worker ✅ COMPLETE
+
+**Requirement:** Either add `workerRelease` to protocol.ts and call from `close()`, OR document what close() intentionally does NOT do.
+
+**Evidence:** `packages/sdk/src/worker.ts:24-29`
+
+Documentation option chosen. The class-level comment states:
+
+> Not implemented: releasing the worker registration with the kernel.
+> `sdk/src/protocol.ts` has no `workerRelease` verb today, so on close()
+> the kernel keeps this workerId in its registry until its lease expires.
+> When workerRelease lands, add a client call at the top of close()
+> (before the drain) so the kernel stops routing dispatches during
+> shutdown.
+
+This satisfies the "OR explicitly document it does not" option from TARGET.md finding #2.
+
+### Finding #3: Class field declaration order ✅ COMPLETE
+
+**Requirement:** Declare ALL fields at the top of the class body, before the constructor.
+
+**Evidence:** `packages/sdk/src/worker.ts:32-40`
+
+```typescript
+export class AgentWorker extends EventEmitter {
+ private attached = false;
+ private closing = false;
+ private readonly inFlight: Set<Promise<void>> = new Set();
+

+ private readonly client: JournalClient,
+ private readonly options: AgentWorkerOptions,
