prompt.rs

1//! Prompt construction.
2//!
3//! These strings are the actual product. The graph only moves bytes around; how
4//! well a run goes is decided by what the judges are asked to look at and what
5//! they are forbidden to speculate about.
6//!
7//! Two rules run through all of them:
8//!
9//! * **No authorship.** Nothing an agent receives names a model or a vendor,
10//!   and every prompt that could invite a guess explicitly forbids guessing.
11//! * **Checkable claims.** Judges and reviewers are told to verify assertions
12//!   against the repository, and to name a trigger for every defect. That is
13//!   what makes an unread patch defensible.

190# Asking the owner\n\n\
191If a decision is genuinely the owner's - a product choice, a tradeoff with no \
192technically correct answer, something that would be expensive to undo - stop \
193and ask instead of guessing:\n\n\
194```sh\n\
195magi ask --summary \"Which storage backend?\" --choice SQLite --choice Redis\n\
196```\n\n\
197It blocks and prints the owner's answer on stdout. Omit `--choice` for a \
198free-text reply.\n\n\
199**Never put this in the background.** The process blocked inside `magi ask` \
200*is* the conversation with the owner - it is the only thing that will ever \
201read their answer. Backgrounding it, or letting your own process exit while \
202it is still running, does not free you to keep working and pick the answer \
203up later: it throws the answer away. The owner still sees the question, \
204still replies, and nothing is left listening. A single call cannot block \
205forever, so instead of hanging until something kills it, it stops on its own \
206after a while and prints that nothing has happened yet - not a failure, just \
207this call's own turn running out. When you see that, call it again, in the \
208foreground, exactly as told:\n\n\
209```sh\n\
210magi ask --wait <question-id>\n\
211```\n\n\
212Keep calling `--wait` in the foreground - one blocking call after another - \
213until an answer or a reply comes back. It resumes the same wait; it does not \
214ask anything new and takes no `--summary`. Backgrounding *this* call throws \
215the answer away exactly as backgrounding the first one would.\n\n\
216You can attach a page you format yourself, which is how the owner actually \
217judges: a diff, a table of what changes, a rendered before and after.\n\n\
218```sh\n\
219magi ask --summary \"...\" --choice A --choice B --panel panel.html --asset shot.png\n\
220```\n\n\
221The panel is your own HTML and CSS, rendered in a sandbox: **no JavaScript \
222runs and nothing may load from the network**. Inline your styles, reference \
223attached assets by their bare filename, and use `data:` URIs for anything \
224small. A `<script>`, a remote font or an external image is silently blocked, \
225so do not spend effort on them.\n\n\
226The owner may answer back with a question of their own instead of deciding - \
227`magi ask` then exits 0 and prints what they said, because that is not a \
228failure, it is the conversation continuing. Read it, and reply on the same \
229question with `--thread`:\n\n\
230```sh\n\
231magi ask --thread <question-id> --summary \"...\" --choice A --choice B\n\
232```\n\n\
233This appends your reply and waits again; it does not start a new question, so \
234say only what is new. Restate `--choice` if the right answers changed because \
235of what the owner asked - the previous choices are gone otherwise, not kept. \
236Keep replying on the same thread until an answer comes back.\n\n\
237Ask sparingly. A question stops the run until a human notices it, and asking \
238about something you could have decided yourself is how that channel becomes \
239noise the owner learns to ignore.",

261///
262/// Spliced into every node prompt (in [`crate::graph::wave`] and
263/// [`crate::graph::Runner::synthesize_brief`]) when the run's config declares
264/// a `CARGO_TARGET_DIR` — which is also the directory the verify commands
265/// build into. The text is stable so tests can assert on it; the value of the
266/// variable is not spelled out because a write-allowed seat reads it from its
267/// own environment, and a prompt that hardcodes a path would go stale the
268/// moment the config moves the cache.
269///
270/// `allow_write` must agree with whether the caller actually hands the seat
271/// `CARGO_TARGET_DIR` (see [`crate::agent::Invocation::cache_dir`]) — a
272/// read-only seat that is still told "build through it" is exactly how a
273/// sandboxed reviewer's write refusal to a directory it was never meant to
274/// touch got reported as a defect in the patch under review. So a read-only
275/// seat is told plainly that it has no shared cache and that a write refusal
276/// anywhere outside its own worktree is expected, not evidence of anything.
277///
278/// The fund-transfer reality the write-allowed note exists to prevent: an
279/// implementer that builds with its own `CARGO_TARGET_DIR` (or lets cargo
280/// create a fresh `target/` in the worktree) is compiling a second copy of
281/// the world that nobody prunes, on a machine that has already had that exact
282/// failure once. It also spells out the one thing a test name filter cannot
283/// do — `cargo test report::` still compiles every integration target in the
284/// workspace, because the filter selects which tests *run*, not which
285/// targets get *built* — so a seat asked for a narrow check knows to reach
286/// for `--lib`/`--test` instead of assuming a filter alone bounds the build.
287///
288/// `node` is the graph node this is spliced into (`"review"`, `"fix"`, ...).
289/// A reviewer or fixer gets an extra paragraph saying full verification is
290/// magi's own job, not theirs to repeat — the same duplicated-full-suite cost
291/// neither note's own advice does anything to prevent on its own, since a
292/// seat that dutifully stays inside its own worktree can still spend the
293/// round re-running the whole suite there. Phrased as a request, not a
294/// guarantee: magi has no way to stop a seat from running `cargo test
295/// --all-targets` anyway, so the note asks rather than claims it enforces
296/// anything.

1507         settled disagreement; a finding that was never rejected and never \
1508         addressed is simply unfixed. Tell them apart.\n\n\

1510         recovery target: leave it out of your reply.\n\n\
1511         Choose one via `recovery`:\n\
1512         - `requeue` — back in line, a fresh competition from scratch.\n\
1513         - `hold` — leave it for a human, and only when there is truly \
1514           nothing more specific to say than the diagnosis itself: no \
1515           action is possible yet, or the diagnosis is simply information \
1516           the operator should have (a note that main already carries the \
1517           same change, say) with no decision attached. Do not reach for \
1518           `hold` merely because the fix is small — a title that is a few \
1519           characters too long, a gate that timed out, a worktree to clean \
1520           up before retrying are all still a human's call, just a cheap \
1521           one, and cheap is not the same as none.\n\
1522         - `review` — only when `branch` below is set: reopen exactly that \
1523           branch through a review-only pass (review, verify, gate — no \
1524           reimplementation). Choose this when the branch is fundamentally \
1525           sound and what is left is a mergeable fix to its findings; choose \
1526           `requeue` instead when the findings say the design itself needs \
1527           to change.\n\
1528         - `done` — the task's own goal is already met outside this loop \
1529           entirely (an `answered` line below already says the branch was \
1530           merged and the worktree cleaned up by hand, say) and running it \
1531           again would only spend attempts on work with nothing left to do. \
1532           Only once the operator's own words say so; never guess this one.\n\n\
1533         `hold` and `question` are not interchangeable labels for the same \
1534         thing: if your own diagnosis lets you write the human's next step \
1535         as one concrete sentence — shorten the PR title and open it, \
1536         delete the stale worktree and resume from review, confirm PR #N \
1537         already covers this and close the task — that sentence belongs in \
1538         `question` (with `choices` when the answer is a pick from a short \
1539         list), never in `hold`'s `reason`. Once that question is answered \
1540         and confirms the task is already done, use `done` on a later cycle \
1541         rather than asking the same thing again. A `hold` whose `reason` \
1542         reads like an instruction rather than a status report is a \
1543         `question` you talked yourself out of asking. `hold` is for when \
1544         no such one-line instruction exists yet; `question` is for when \
1545         one \
1546         already does and only needs the human's word — or a quick manual \
1547         action — before the task can move again.\n\n\
