…step The top-of-README example chained .gate() calls, which the authored executor doesn't lower (unsupported_gate) — it never actually ran. Replaced with the same logic expressed in plain control flow. The Quickstart's hello-world f.run-only example undersold what a flow actually does. Replaced it with a verified-working f.run -> f.agent chain, documented the local park-without-a-worker behavior (agent_parked, exit 3) honestly, and added a "Running in the cloud" section pointing at agent-relay cloud run/schedule for turning a flow into a standing automation.

…thoring surface f.agent() previously couldn't declare a distinct CLI or model per agent, and multiple f.agent() calls in one flow always shared the same project-default CLI. The kernel-spec/preflight/compile layer already fully implements this (FlowSpec.agents, AgentStepSpec.agent/cli/model, step -> named declaration -> flow/project resolution) for the declarative YAML dialect; it was only missing from the TS surface, per docs/SURFACE.md's own tracked gap (issue #132 / PR #134, now landed as @relayflows/surface). - @relayflows/surface: FlowHeader gains an `agents: Record<string, {cli, model}>` map; AgentOptions gains optional `cli`/`model` step-level overrides. Both validated with the same closed-schema strictness as the existing memory/tools header fields. - authored-flow-executor.ts: the header refusal is now field-specific (agents is lowered, everything else still refuses closed). f.agent's `name` argument selects a declared agent by matching it against the header's map -- but only lowers `agent: name` onto the kernel step when a match exists, since compile.ts's resolveNamedAgent throws on any unresolvable selector and every existing f.agent call uses `name` purely for step-id readability. - docs/SURFACE.md's implementation-status note updated -- it previously said this was TS-surface-only blocked; it isn't anymore. Verified live: a two-named-agent TS flow resolves both CLIs/models through real preflight (packages/sdk/tests/live-kernel.test.ts) and, separately, a real `claude` CLI end-to-end via a manually run scratch flow.

Preserve model-specific preflight refusal kinds
When the new options.model value is absent from the project allowlist or fails its readiness probe, checkAuthoredFlow produces model_unknown or model_unavailable, but the executor unconditionally wraps that refusal as agent_cli_unresolved and direct-run.ts then reports it as invalid_spec. The TypeScript dialect therefore loses the closed preflight taxonomy that the YAML dialect preserves, preventing callers from distinguishing a bad model declaration from a missing CLI; propagate the refusal kind instead of collapsing every failure.

Fixed in 4c52342: AuthoredFlowExecutionError now carries the actual preflight refusalKind (cli_missing, model_unknown, model_unavailable, etc.), and direct-run.ts uses it instead of the hardcoded invalid_spec. Covered by new tests in authored-flow.test.ts (asserting refusalKind on the thrown error) and a new end-to-end test in direct-input.test.ts (asserting the CLI's REFUSED [model_unknown] output).

….agent Codex review on #245 (packages/sdk/src/authored-flow-executor.ts:211): lowerAgent wrapped every checkAuthoredFlow refusal -- cli_missing, model_unknown, model_unavailable, etc. -- as one generic AuthoredFlowExecutionError code (agent_cli_unresolved), and direct-run.ts then hardcoded kind: 'invalid_spec' when reporting it. That collapsed the closed refusal taxonomy the declarative `flows check` path preserves via report.diagnostics[].kind, so a caller of the TS dialect couldn't distinguish a bad model declaration from a missing CLI. AuthoredFlowExecutionError now carries an optional refusalKind (the actual PreflightFailureKind), populated at the one throw site in lowerAgent and read back by direct-run.ts's catch block instead of the hardcoded value. unsupported_header/unsupported_workspace_permission have no preflight- diagnostic counterpart, so they keep invalid_spec.

ALIGNED WITH FINDINGS at 4c5234297866ef4f1146c504eed92765503c8325.
Named agents and per-step CLI/model overrides are lawful extensions of the open TypeScript surface, compiled to the existing agent verb. They do not widen the closed kernel vocabulary. The remaining findings are two reproduced authoring-validation defects and a live test that does not prove the distinction it names. This is not an approval.
Findings
-
P1 — Preflight declared header agents before executing the body. packages/sdk/src/authored-flow-executor.ts:141 now accepts the
agentsheader, but its only call into named-agent preflight is insidelowerAgent(packages/sdk/src/authored-flow-executor.ts:199, packages/sdk/src/authored-flow-executor.ts:222). A flow with a statically declared, unregistered model can therefore executef.runand finish successfully if nof.agentis reached; if an agent is reached later, the refusal occurs after the command's effect. My live reproducer writes a disposable marker in both cases:UNUSED_INVALID_HEADERreports success withmarker: "effect";LATE_HEADER_REFUSALreportsmodel_unknownaftermarker: "already-executed". This violates RFC covenant 2 (docs/RFC-0001-everything-is-a-relayflow.md:34) and SURFACE §2, which requires every named model—including unused/shadowed declarations—to be checked before commands (docs/SURFACE.md:164), and explicitly says TS preflights its declared agents (docs/SURFACE.md:204). The new status text claiming the same contract in both dialects (docs/SURFACE.md:191) is consequently too broad. This is header data already available before the body starts, not a demand to statically predict arbitrary TS control flow. Run that declared-data validation before allowing body effects. -
P2 — Reject accessors on the agent map before enumerating it. packages/surface/src/flow.ts:209 uses
Object.entries(value.agents)without validating the map's property descriptors. packages/surface/src/flow.ts:157 then enumerates it again while freezing. A getter can return a legal{cli, model}declaration for validation and a different, invalid declaration for storage. The executedACCESSORcase is accepted, invokes the getter twice, and retains{cli: 42, model: "model-b", permissions: "write-all"}ingetFlowDefinition(handle).header.agents. This violates the closed declaration contract in SURFACE §2 law 6 (docs/SURFACE.md:79) and its inert-data/snapshot rule in §6 (docs/SURFACE.md:399), consistent with decision 9 (docs/RFC-0001-everything-is-a-relayflow.md:211). Validate descriptors without invoking getters, then validate/freeze the same data snapshot. This is an authored-handle validation escape; I am not claiming the extra permission field bypasses the downstream kernel compiler or grants permissions to a worker. -
P2 — Make the “two distinct named agents” test distinguish the selected agent and model. packages/sdk/tests/live-kernel.test.ts:448 gives both names the exact same CLI and model; its wrapper ignores
request.modeland returns only the supplied task (packages/sdk/tests/live-kernel.test.ts:414). Consequently the assertions at packages/sdk/tests/live-kernel.test.ts:466 pass even when every name selects the first declaration. I executed that precise negative control by temporarily replacingagent: namewithagent: Object.keys(namedAgents!)[0]: the named test still passed. I restored the source byte-for-byte and reran the same test; it passed again. Commands, output, and identical restoration hashes are below. The test proves two instruction round trips through a declared CLI, not distinct named-agent selection or per-agent model propagation. This misses the behavior specified by SURFACE §2 law 6 (docs/SURFACE.md:84) and the deterministic-test requirement in AGENTS.md rule 5 / RFC §2 rule 6 (AGENTS.md:19, docs/RFC-0001-everything-is-a-relayflow.md:66). Use distinguishable CLI fixtures and model values and assert their actual worker requests/outputs. My separate live fixture does so and confirms that the current implementation itself selects both correctly and honors overrides.
Requested spec answers
- Decision 13 — aligned; no vocabulary widening. packages/sdk/src/step-fields.ts:16 remains exactly
AGENT_DECLARATION_FIELDS = ['cli', 'model']; packages/sdk/src/step-fields.ts:34 retains the closed agent fieldsinstruction, agent, cli, model, surfaces, recoveryMode, permissions, output. Neither descriptor norkernel/changes in this PR. New TS fields are copied into existing authoring fields (packages/sdk/src/authored-flow-executor.ts:204) and lower totype: 'agent'(packages/sdk/src/compile.ts:543), as required by RFC decision 13 (docs/RFC-0001-everything-is-a-relayflow.md:215) and SURFACE §2 law 6 (docs/SURFACE.md:79). TheCLOSED_FIELDS,DISTINCT_ACTUAL, andCOMPILED_BOUNDARYoutputs demonstrate this with two actual CLI fixtures and two different declared models. The surface's new type does not create a new kernel verb. - Decision 9 — compiled boundary remains aligned. The existing check/compile path still produces the kernel spec before
journal.runStart(packages/sdk/src/authored-flow-executor.ts:222, packages/sdk/src/authored-flow-executor.ts:238). The captured submissions contain resolvedcli/modelvalues and existing step types, with neither top-levelagentsnor per-step namedagentselectors left at the boundary (packages/sdk/src/compile.ts:543). That matches decision 9 (docs/RFC-0001-everything-is-a-relayflow.md:211). Finding 2 concerns the earlier authored-handle validation, not a new protocol or closure crossing into the kernel. - Decision 6 — no new gate-edit or permission-widening mechanism found. Normal named declarations reject
permissions,tools,gate, andidentityextras (packages/surface/src/flow.ts:212); all four refusals were executed below. The executor still refuses other headers (packages/sdk/src/authored-flow-executor.ts:141) and lowers only the supported named CLI/model data. No gate file changes appear in the diff. This respects the scope of decision 6 (docs/RFC-0001-everything-is-a-relayflow.md:208); finding 2 still needs fixing and is not evidence of an actual gate-edit exploit. No gate was used as a test fixture. - Decision 11 — kernel completion discipline is retained. Named calls use the existing classification and journal-result reader (packages/sdk/src/authored-flow-executor.ts:249, packages/sdk/src/authored-flow-executor.ts:478), without adding quality judgments. The successful distinct-agent flow records success for all three agent calls and terminal completion. A nonzero-exit named worker journals
step.completed: worker_errorandrun.completed: step_failed; the executor rejects instead of reachingf.done('success'). This matches the kernel/evidence split in decision 11 (docs/RFC-0001-everything-is-a-relayflow.md:213). A pre-existing limitation remains visible: the SDK exception'scompletionReasonis null for this outerstep_failedoutcome, while the journal has both reasons; the filtering logic is unchanged from the PR base, so I am not attributing that defect to named-agent support. - Documentation — local quickstart behavior reproduced; declared parity needs finding 1 fixed. I extracted the exact
explain-env.flow.tsbody from README.md:49, installed a separate copy of the PR surface, used its documented{"cli":"claude"}, and ran the built CLI without a worker. It executed the deterministic step and exited 3, printingPARKED [run_parked] agent_parked, matching README.md:78 and SURFACE §5 (docs/SURFACE.md:367). The cloud deployment/admission and recurring-schedule claims at README.md:84 were not exercised; a local result is not evidence of hosted behavior. No cloud run was submitted.
Executed checks and scope
SDK build: passes with the PR's packed surface. Full SDK suite: 812 passed, 3 skipped. Explicit targeted run of authored-flow.test.ts, live-kernel.test.ts, plus the latest commit's direct-input.test.ts: 64 passed. Surface suite: 8 passed. Literal output below is the authority for these counts. The three full-suite skips are the opt-in real-cli-adapters.test.ts cases; the live analyzer test ran.
The required build against a clean lockfile-installed surface initially fails with missing agents/cli/model types; that output is included rather than hidden. The PR explicitly states that source changes need a version bump/publish, so I tested the actual packed PR surface instead of treating the old published package as the new implementation. The green build/suite claims are conditional on that setup, not a claim that the unmodified published dependency already contains the new API.
The PR advanced during review; this comment reviews the head named above, including the latest refusal-kind propagation change. It now preserves model_unknown rather than reducing it to a generic invalid-spec kind; the updated direct-input test is included in the targeted execution. Findings 1–3 remain reproducible at this head. Source was restored after the negative control; no tracked edit, gate edit, approval, merge, or push remains. This negative control is a deliberately broken selector that survived a test, not a claim of “mutation-verified” coverage.

Review-only scripts live in .review-evidence/pr245/ in this worktree. Their full source is embedded here so the review does not depend on access to a private artifact. The probes use disposable files, a local daemon built from this checkout, real spawned fixture CLIs, and the real journal client/worker. The quickstart fixture uses the installed Claude authentication probe, with no model invocation because it has no attached worker.

SummaryVERDICT: REVIEW_PASSED (with notable concerns requiring attention before future work builds on this) This PR introduces named agent declarations ( Critical Findings1. Implicit synchronization contract between upfront check and per-step checkLocation: Issue: The code establishes a critical invariant — both // Synchronization invariant: this and `lowerAgent` below both resolve
// readiness through the SAME `checkAuthoredFlow` function, by construction
// (there is only one such function in this package). If a future change
// adds a second, differently-behaved resolution path for either call site,
// this upfront check and lowerAgent's own check could diverge...Why this is a maintainability hazard:
What would fail: A flow with an invalid agent declaration could pass the upfront check, execute real Missing safeguard: No test verifies that BOTH code paths produce identical refusals for the same invalid declaration. The test suite validates each path independently but never asserts they stay synchronized. 2. Unclear boundary: when does

Review swarm: historyPR #245 — history reviewHead: BlockersNone. AssessmentThis change fits the progression from declared agents in #136 ( The most relevant recorded mistake is covenant 2's unknown CLI that survived preflight and failed 27 minutes into a run. The WP-4 entry in The WP-4 and WP-11 log entries also record how losing failure identity makes the CLI misleading. The README's intermediate replacement of the deterministic quickstart was a regression against covenant 1 and #243's local first-run story.
Commit-message fidelity and limitsThe feature, refusal-taxonomy, declaration-preflight and quickstart commit descriptions match their corresponding code changes. Commit bodies contain claims about live runs, mutation checks, suite totals and an allegedly pre-existing flaky test. I did not rerun those experiments and do not adopt those claims as verification. This is a static history-lens pass, not a claim that CI is green, that the published packages were validated, or that the PR meets every merge gate. The DRIVE-LOG's evidence corrections are precisely why those distinctions matter. Input recoveryThe supplied I recovered the public repository with

Review swarm: structureStructure Review: PR #245
FindingsP1: Upfront named-agent preflight is coupled to fabricated kernel steps
This is the wrong structural boundary for the feature. A declaration-level preflight should validate the named-agent map directly, then the step-level helper should validate only the selected declaration and any step overrides. Encoding “validate this map” as fake executable steps couples the surface contract to step IDs, instructions, Refactor P1: Touched modules have grown past their single-purpose boundaryThe PR adds substantial behavior to files that are already far beyond the

real f.run effects already journaled -- the invalid declaration was only
checked lazily inside lowerAgent, so an unselected one was never checked
at all. executeAuthoredFlow now runs the same real preflight against every
declared header agent (via a placeholder no-op deterministic step, so no
CLI gets probed) before the body runs, matching the declarative dialect's
unknownModelDiagnostics checking every entry in `agents`, used or not.
- P2 (kjgbot): a getter on the agents map itself could answer authoring
validation with a legal {cli, model} and a second, separate read during
freezing with a different, invalid declaration -- the closed contract
never actually applied to the stored value. Both the validation and
freezing passes now read every entry through its property descriptor
(ownDataEntries), which rejects an accessor outright instead of invoking
it, closing the gap regardless of how many times the map is read.
- P2 (cubic): named declaration cli/model values (and now agent names) must
be already-trimmed, matching the SDK's own project-config schema -- an
untrimmed value validated at authoring time but failed later at f.agent
preflight, moving a defect from authoring to execution.
- P2 (kjgbot + cubic, same finding independently): the "two distinct named
agents" live test gave both agents the identical cli and model, and its
stub echoed only the instruction, never which declaration it received --
a negative control that made every f.agent(name) resolve to the first
declared entry still passed it. Rewritten with two distinct stub CLIs and
models that each echo back their own identity, plus a step-level override
case; verified this version fails under the same negative control and
passes on the restored source.
- P3 (cubic): namedAgentFixture's temp directories were never cleaned up.
Added afterEach cleanup matching every other mkdtempSync use in the suite.
- P2 (cubic/coderabbitai, same finding): the README's flagship example
checked `result.includes("EXIT:0")`, which matches anywhere in the output,
not just the final exit marker, and called f.done("success") right after
the fixer agent with no re-verification. Now checks
`result.trim().endsWith("EXIT:0")` and re-runs the tests after the fixer,
throwing (not silently succeeding) if they're still red.

…odel kjgbot's review swarm (three independent lenses on PR #245) found real gaps beyond the first round of fixes: - history (P1, H1): the first "check declared agents before the body runs" fix only submitted a deterministic placeholder step, which preflight never CLI-resolves. A header declaring a REGISTERED model but a MISSING CLI still passed the upfront check, so an f.run before a later, actually-selected f.agent('reviewer', ...) could still run for real before the eventual cli_missing refusal -- repeating the exact "unknown CLI survived preflight and failed 27 minutes into a run" failure RFC-0001 covenant 2 records. - structure (P2): the placeholder step was a fabricated primitive standing in for a validation helper, and authored-flow-executor.ts had grown past the 500-line single-purpose threshold. - maintainability (P0/P1): the validation/freezing getter-safety contract was implicit rather than stated; `matchesNamedAgent` didn't defensively guard against a future refactor breaking the map-integrity assumption it relies on; comments described what code does NOT do instead of what it does; README's `workspace: "src"` had no explained semantics. Extracted `packages/sdk/src/authored-flow-agents.ts`: `preflightDeclaredAgents` now builds one real `type: 'agent'` step per declared name (not a no-op deterministic placeholder), so CLI resolution and probing run for every declared agent up front, same as model-registry checking already did -- closing the CLI half of the gap, not just the model half. `findRefusalDiagnostic` is shared between this and `lowerAgent`'s own resolution, removing the duplicated `.find()`. Also: explicit getter-safety contract comment in flow.ts, a defensive `namedAgents[name] !== undefined` guard, positively-phrased contract comment on `lowerAgent`, and a workspace-semantics sentence in the README. Two existing unit tests needed updating: they relied on an absent *named* declaration CLI never being probed (true before this fix, false after) -- both now use a real stub CLI for the declaration itself so the case they actually test (step-level override, unrelated-name fallthrough) is reachable. Added: a CLI-missing-on-a-later-selected-agent regression test (proves no body effect precedes the refusal, mirroring history's own reproduction), and a live end-to-end case proving a valid-but-unused declaration does NOT block the flow (only an invalid one does).

Addressed the review-swarm findings (three lenses: maintainability, history, structure) in 456c9e5: history (H1, the substantive one) — the first "check declared agents upfront" fix only checked model-registry membership (via a no-op deterministic placeholder step, which preflight never CLI-resolves). A declaration with a registered model but a missing/unauthenticated CLI still let an earlier structure — extracted maintainability — added the explicit getter-safety contract comment in Full SDK suite: 813 passed (1 unrelated pre-existing flaky daemon-artifact-timing test, passes in isolation), 3 skipped. Surface suite: 10 passed. |

kjgbot's history review lens on PR #245: the README's "Get Started" replaced the old f.run-only quickstart (#243) with f.run + f.agent, which parks without a worker attached -- a fresh local user with no worker configured now can't complete the documented quickstart at all, only reach a parked diagnostic. That's a real regression against RFC-0001 covenant 1's under-ten-minute first-working-flow bar, and the cloud alternative is account-gated. Restored hello.flow.ts (f.run only, verified to complete in well under a minute) as the first thing a new user runs. The f.agent example moves to a new "Add a coding agent to a flow" section right after, keeping the same honest parking/worker explanation -- so the quickstart works standalone locally, and the agent example still shows the platform's actual point. Also added a synchronization-invariant comment in authored-flow-executor.ts (maintainability lens, F1): preflightDeclaredAgents and lowerAgent both resolve readiness through the same checkAuthoredFlow function by construction: keep it that way, or the two checks can silently diverge.

Same closed-schema validation strictness as existing header fields.authored-flow-executor.ts: header refusal is now field-specific (agentsis lowered, everything else still refuses closed).f.agent'snameselects a declared agent by matching against the header's map, but only sets the kernelagentselector when there's an actual match —compile.ts'sresolveNamedAgentthrows on any unresolvable selector, and every existingf.agentcall usesnamepurely for step-id readability, so this keeps 100% backward compatibility.docs/SURFACE.mdimplementation-status note updated to reflect this shipped.Test plan

Summary by cubic
Adds named multi-agent and per-step CLI/model selection to the TypeScript
f.agentsurface, aligning issue #132 with the declarative dialect. Previously, all calls used the project-default CLI and could not select a model; now named declarations resolve independently while unmatched names retain the existing default behavior.Validation
FlowHeader.agentsuses closed-schema validation and deeply freezes{ cli, model }declarations.cliandmodelvalues override named declarations.cli_missingandmodel_unknowninstead of collapsing them toinvalid_spec.Docs and release
