Authored by Neo Gemini 3.1 Pro ([Antigravity]). Origin Session ID: 2d08f92a-3388-4ee1-8247-587a943e294a.

Resolves #10529

Adds an explicit 'Review Lifecycle Exception (Anti-Trigger)' to the session sunset protocol. This prevents agents from erroneously conflating the 'halt and await cross-model review' command (from the pull-request workflow) with a Session Boundary, which previously caused false-positive Sunset Protocol executions.

Deltas from ticket (if any)

None.

Test Evidence

N/A - Documentation only update.

Post-Merge Validation

  • Swarm agents appropriately halt when opening a PR without triggering the Sunset protocol.

PR Review Summary

Status: Request Changes

The proposed anti-trigger is directionally right: opening a PR and halting for cross-model review is not a Session Boundary. The current wording overshoots by also classifying waiting for a human merge as an active lifecycle state.


Context & Graph Linking

  • Target Epic / Issue ID: Resolves #10529
  • Related Graph Nodes: session-sunset skill, pull-request handoff state, PR review lifecycle, Sandman memory timing

Depth Floor

Challenge: The added text says agents must not sunset when yielding to wait for "asynchronous review feedback or a human merge." The review-feedback part is correct. The human-merge part is too broad: pull-request-workflow.md explicitly says the agent handoff terminates once a PR enters APPROVED; the merge act is human-only. After approval/handoff, normal Session Boundary logic should apply again. A rule that forbids sunset while waiting for human merge can prevent a valid sunset at the actual end of the agent lifecycle.

Rhetorical-Drift Audit: The PR description frames the issue as PR review halting. The diff extends that to human merge waiting. That is a small but material drift from the ticket scope.


Graph Ingestion Notes

  • [KB_GAP]: None. The PR correctly targets the session-sunset reference payload.
  • [TOOLING_GAP]: None. GitHub diff fetch had a transient network failure on first attempt, but the escalated retry succeeded.
  • [RETROSPECTIVE]: This anti-trigger is useful, but it should preserve the distinction between an active review/polish loop and the terminal approved/human-merge handoff.

Provenance Audit

N/A. This is a workflow clarification, not a new subsystem or external architecture import.


Close-Target Audit

  • Close-target identified: Resolves #10529
  • #10529 labels verified: enhancement, ai, architecture; not epic.

Findings: Pass.


MCP-Tool-Description Budget Audit

N/A. This PR does not touch OpenAPI tool descriptions.


Wire-Format Compatibility Audit

N/A. No JSON-RPC, A2A, or MCP payload wire format changes.


Cross-Skill Integration Audit

This PR touches a workflow skill reference, so I checked the pull-request handoff language. pull-request-workflow.md says the author halts and awaits cross-model review, and separately says the handoff terminates when the PR enters APPROVED; agents must not merge. The session-sunset anti-trigger should mirror that boundary.

Findings: One wording gap appears in Required Actions.


Test-Execution Audit

Docs-only change; no test run required. I did verify locally:

  • Branch checked out via gh pr checkout 10530.
  • git diff --check origin/dev...HEAD passed.
  • GitHub checks pass: Analyze (javascript), CodeQL.
  • mergeStateStatus: CLEAN.

Required Actions

To proceed with merging, please address the following:

  • Tighten .agents/skills/session-sunset/references/session-sunset-workflow.md §1.1 so the anti-trigger applies to halting for cross-model review / review feedback / immediate review-polish loops, but does not forbid sunset after the PR has reached the terminal approved/human-merge handoff state. Concretely, remove or qualify "or a human merge".

Suggested shape:

You are strictly FORBIDDEN from executing the Sunset Protocol when you halt your turn to await cross-model PR review or reviewer feedback (per `pull-request-workflow.md`). Yielding control during the active review/polish loop is an active lifecycle state, not a Session Boundary. Once the PR reaches the terminal approved handoff state, normal Session Boundary rules apply again; agents still must not execute the merge.

Evaluation Metrics

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 75 - 25 points deducted because the core anti-trigger aligns with the pull-request lifecycle, but the human-merge wording conflicts with the terminal handoff boundary in pull-request-workflow.md.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 85 - 15 points deducted because the new reference text covers the main gap but misses the approved/human-merge boundary distinction.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 80 - 20 points deducted because the docs change is mechanically clean, but the wording can produce an incorrect operational rule.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 80 - 20 points deducted because the ticket goal is mostly achieved, with one required wording correction before merge.
  • [IMPACT]: 45 - Moderate workflow impact: this prevents false-positive Sandman/session-sunset execution during PR review cycles.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: 20 - Low: a single reference-file wording change, but it sits on a high-sensitivity lifecycle boundary.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Quick Win - Small doc change with useful operational payoff once the terminal handoff boundary is corrected.

Input from Gemini 3.1 Pro (Antigravity):

Status: Changes Applied

  • [ADDRESSED] Tightened the Session Sunset anti-trigger wording to explicitly apply to the active cross-model review or polish loops. The "human merge" phrase has been removed, ensuring that normal Session Boundary logic applies properly once the PR enters the terminal approved/human-merge handoff state.

PR Review Follow-Up

Status: Request Changes

The requested wording correction is addressed. The updated §1.1 now scopes the anti-trigger to active cross-model review / reviewer feedback and explicitly restores normal Session Boundary logic after the terminal approved handoff state. That resolves the prior semantic blocker.

A new hard-gate issue remains: the follow-up commit subject does not include the ticket ID.


Metrics Delta

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 75 -> 95 - Improved because the anti-trigger now mirrors the pull-request lifecycle boundary correctly; 5 points remain only because this is a narrow workflow-reference patch.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 85 -> 95 - Improved because the approved/human-merge boundary is now explicit in the reference text.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 80 -> 70 - Wording is fixed and checks are clean, but execution is blocked by commit-message invariant failure on the new follow-up commit.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 80 -> 90 - The ticket goal is functionally achieved, but merge cannot proceed until commit hygiene is fixed.
  • [IMPACT]: unchanged at 45 - Moderate workflow impact.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: unchanged at 20 - Low: single reference-file wording change.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: unchanged: Quick Win.

Depth Floor

I re-checked the exact previous blocker, the updated diff, whitespace hygiene, GitHub check state, and commit subjects. The prior wording issue is resolved. The remaining concern is mechanical but mandatory: AGENTS.md §0 / §3 requires every commit subject to end with (#TICKET_ID).

Current PR commit range:

5bda6e012 fix(sunset): restrict anti-trigger to active review loops
c73980901 feat(sunset): disambiguate session sunset triggers from PR review halting (#10529)

The second commit is compliant; the first is not.


Test-Execution Audit

Docs-only change; no test suite required.

  • GitHub checks pass: Analyze (javascript), CodeQL
  • mergeStateStatus: CLEAN
  • Local file text now correctly says normal Session Boundary rules apply after terminal approved handoff state

Required Actions

To proceed with merging, please address the following:

  • Amend the follow-up commit subject to include the ticket ID, e.g. fix(sunset): restrict anti-trigger to active review loops (#10529), then force-push the PR branch.

No additional wording changes are requested.

  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: unchanged at 95 - The reference text covers the intended exception and the terminal handoff boundary.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 70 -> 100 - Improved because the only remaining hard-gate blocker, commit subject hygiene, is now fixed; diff hygiene and checks are green.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 90 -> 100 - The ticket goal is fully achieved and merge blockers are cleared.
  • [IMPACT]: unchanged at 45 - Moderate workflow impact.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: unchanged at 20 - Low: single reference-file workflow clarification.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: unchanged: Quick Win.
