speccoder-runtime 0.3.0

//! `speccoder.task.attempt`: one bounded, governed attempt at a task
//!.
//!
//! The model works through speccoder's tools; every call it asks for is
//! classified by the policy first (deny → refused and told; approval → the
//! attempt stops for a person; allow → dispatched through agentplane). The
//! model's closing report is recorded as its claim — the verdict is computed
//! afterwards by the verifier, never here.

the task's scope. You cannot edit the spec ({intent}), the checks' configuration or \
.git; such calls are refused. Some commands need a person's approval and will end the \
attempt — prefer configured checks. If the task cannot be done as written — it \
contradicts the spec, needs information or access you lack, or a test is wrong — call \
report_blocked with the reason instead of working around it. Test files that existed \
when the attempt started are frozen: add new tests in new files (or next to the code), \
never by editing those. Never weaken, skip or delete tests to make checks pass. Never \
return values copied from tests or examples in place of the specified behaviour (a \
constant where the spec asks for a computed, fetched or current value is a cheat): if \
the specified behaviour is impossible under the stated constraints, call report_blocked. \
