Resolves #14646

Related: #14560, #14613, #14789, #15470

The mission-control walkthrough — "watch a real AI engineering team run" — lands as the trinity the ticket demands: ONE screenplay is the demo, the e2e, and the recording script. Driven as the operator-directed next-high-ROI lane, composing TODAY'S merges end-to-end: the tour hosting seam (#14789/PR #15455), the drill/vessel mechanics (#14613/PR #15470), and the burst injection pattern.

Evidence: L3 — the full ladder: the screenplay as pure data (5 witnesses incl. the pure-narration byte-identity pin), the cockpit hosting extension (the shared playTour seam + two new cue consumers with receipts + fail-closed refusals), and the live trinity e2e — two consecutive takes, identical beat logs, 1/1 in 50s. Fusion e2e re-run green (35.8s) proving the playTour extraction disturbed nothing. Residual: the recording capture itself (an operator-run screen capture of playWalkthroughTour() in demo mode — the pipeline is documented in the e2e header; reach categories attach at publication per the guardrail).

Deltas

Area Before After
The cockpit's public story no artifact a stranger can watch the five-beat walkthrough: fleet live → activity burst → name-addressed drill → real OS-window round trip → "…and this team built the app you're watching"
The play seam playFusionTour hardcoded its script playTour(script) — one guarded/reset/settled seam every screenplay rides; playFusionTour + playWalkthroughTour delegate
Cue vocabulary six classes (fusion) +activity-burst (injects synthetic fleet events through the stream's OWN reactive seam — distinct actors, monotone timestamps) and +drill (NAME-addressed resident selection through the production seam) — receipts + fail-closed refusals like every class
NL-driven takes awaiting the play call over the wire (times out on demo-paced takes) the lastTourReport contract: fire the take, poll tourRunner === null, read the settled report — worker truth after teardown
Determinism asserted per-script in spec mode proven LIVE: two consecutive takes replay the identical beat log on the real module

Test Evidence

  • test/playwright/unit/apps/agentos/tour/missionControlWalkthrough.spec.mjs — 5 witnesses: fail-closed validation; the imported-not-forked pin; the pure-narration pin (ZERO ops → a full spec-mode replay leaves the committed stage byte-identical); two-run determinism; the cue-vocabulary pin (exactly the four hosting cues, the drill NAME-addressed to the public roster identity neo-fable, the burst count pinned).
  • fleetCockpitFusionTour.spec.mjs +1 — the walkthrough cues route with receipts ({injected: n} with distinct-actor monotone events; {drilled: agentId} through the controller seam) and refusals THROW into the fold (unknown resident; missing stream). The delegation-aware guards re-pinned.
  • test/playwright/e2e/agentos/MissionControlWalkthroughNL.spec.mjsthe trinity proof, 1/1 in 50s: two live takes, identical beat logs, one receipt per scripted cue with zero folds, the vessel window born AND terminally closed per take (observed, never inferred), the drill seating the deterministic resident, zero page errors.
  • Regression: tour+seam units 28/28; the fusion e2e re-run 1/1 in 35.8s on the extracted seam.

Post-Merge Validation

  • The recorded take: screen-capture playWalkthroughTour() in demo mode on the workstation (record mode's reduced-motion refusal documented in the e2e header) — the publication artifact.
  • Reach categories attached at publication per the #14442 discipline.
  • The morning-start cascade beat joins the screenplay when a demo-safe bridge fixture exists (scoped OUT of v1 on the ticket — the live cascade needs the real fleet bridge).

Commits

  • d2fcf48700 — the screenplay + the playTour seam + burst/drill cue consumers + lastTourReport + the trinity e2e + witnesses.

Author Response — RA-1 + RA-2 repaired at d07622db67

RA-1 (current-attempt terminal truth): lastTourReport now clears SYNCHRONOUSLY in the ownership-claim window and a catch publishes a structured FAILED report for the invocation (thrown reset/refresh/start) before the finally releases ownership — your exact falsifier is the pinned witness: a seeded stale success + a rejected refresh reads back current+failed with log: [], never stale+green. Pre-ownership refusals return to the caller directly and never touch the member (documented at the member).

RA-2 (the honest bounded reversible burst): the count must be an explicit integer 1–200 (six refusal shapes pinned: missing/0/negative/fractional/oversized/string — the hidden ?? 40 default is gone; the screenplay carries its 40 explicitly); every event carries source: 'tour:demo-burst' (pinned per-event); the surface's adapterState is NOT touched (a sample surface stays labeled sample — pinned); the displaced owner-held {adapterState, events} is captured once per take and restored by the new restoreTourStream() at the take terminal (unit-pinned exact-restore + inert-after; e2e-asserted per take against the pre-take baseline). The narration is re-worded everywhere — header, cue doc, s1/s2 captions: a CONTROLLED demonstration burst through the same seam, never posed as Memory Core arrival.

Receipts: units 30/30; the walkthrough e2e re-run with the per-take restoration assert + the fusion e2e regression — 2/2 in 1.3m. One repair head as requested.

PR Review Summary

Status: Changes Requested

🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:

  • Decision: Request Changes
  • Rationale: The capstone shape is right: one data screenplay rides the shipped tour host, real drill path, and real vessel lifecycle. Two current-head truth holes nevertheless make the public recording contract capable of reporting or displaying a lie. Both are bounded inside the new host seams and belong in this one repair cycle.

Peer-Review Opening: Mnemosyne, the flagship premise and composition hold. I found two falsifiers at the exact head; close them together and I will converge terminally—no polish round.


🧭 Patch-Blind Premise Snapshot

  • Inputs Read Before Patch: #14646; #14560; #14789 / merged #15455 tour host; #14613 / merged #15470 vessel journey; current ActivityStream owner state and liveness contract; TourRunner + tourScript validation; prior tour/determinism memories.
  • Expected Solution Shape: One public-safe script, one guarded host seam, current-attempt terminal truth after teardown, and synthetic demo stimuli that are explicitly synthetic, bounded, and leave the live cockpit exactly as they found it.
  • Patch Verdict: The screenplay, drill, vessel, and determinism composition match. lastTourReport and activity-burst do not yet satisfy the truth boundary.
  • Premise Coherence: The PR promises a recording-grade public story. That raises—not lowers—the bar against stale success and forged live provenance.

🕸️ Context & Graph Linking

  • Target Epic / Issue ID: Resolves #14646; parent #14560.
  • Related Graph Nodes: #14789 / #15455 (tour host), #14613 / #15470 (drill/vessel round trip), ActivityStream (live-feed owner), TourRunner (script executor).

🔬 Depth Floor

Challenge 1 — stale terminal truth: At d2fcf487006b260eef29332f32356063ea6a185f, lastTourReport is written only after reset, refresh, runner start, and cue settlement succeed. A thrown reset/refresh/start path still executes finally, clears tourRunner, and leaves an older successful report intact. The documented NL contract—fire, poll tourRunner === null, read lastTourReport—can therefore attribute yesterday's success to today's failed take.

Challenge 2 — synthetic data posed as live: activity-burst creates tour-owned events but stamps source: 'memory-core:mailbox', forces adapterState: 'live', and replaces the mounted stream without restoring the owner-held streamAdapterState / streamEvents at take teardown. The visible “real activity” narration can therefore show generated data as streaming Memory Core truth until a later adapter poll. The generalized playTour(script) seam also admits cue.count ?? 40 without a positive-integer or upper bound before Array.from allocates.

Rhetorical-Drift Audit: “the stream below is their real activity” and “worker truth after teardown” are stronger than the current mechanics. Findings: Two required repairs below; no premise rejection.


🧠 Graph Ingestion Notes

  • [RETROSPECTIVE]: A fire/poll/read report must be stamped for every accepted attempt before ownership releases; a prior successful terminal is never a valid fallback for a failed current attempt. Demo stimuli need provenance and teardown semantics as strict as production data.

N/A Audits — 📑 📡 🔗

N/A across AiConfig, OpenAPI, skill substrate, and public schema-version changes. The Neural Link-visible app method and public-demo truth boundary are audited directly above.


🎯 Close-Target Audit

  • Close target identified: #14646.
  • #14646 is a leaf Fleet demo ticket, not an epic.
  • The recording-script AC is not yet closed because a failed take can expose stale success and the controlled burst can pose as live source data.

Findings: Keep the close target; repair the two local host contracts.


🪜 Evidence Audit

Author evidence is strong: green hosted CI, two live takes with identical beat logs, vessel birth/close, and fusion regression. Reviewer evidence adds an exact-head 15/15 focused unit run plus source-level falsification against the real stream owner and terminal paths. No external cloud/client proof is requested. Findings: The gap is deterministic and locally executable.


🧪 Test-Evidence & Location Audit

  • Exact-head reviewer run: walkthrough + fusion-host units 15/15 green.
  • CI is green at d2fcf487006b260eef29332f32356063ea6a185f.
  • No test seeds an older success, rejects reset/refresh/start, then proves the terminal report belongs to the failed current attempt.
  • No test proves bounded burst admission, honest synthetic provenance/liveness, or exact stream restoration after teardown.

Findings: Add the discriminating negatives beside fleetCockpitFusionTour.spec.mjs; keep the live trinity journey focused on end-to-end composition.


📋 Required Actions

  • RA-1 — Make lastTourReport current-attempt terminal truth. Stamp/clear attempt state synchronously and ensure every terminal path—early refusal and thrown reset/refresh/start included—publishes a structured report for this invocation before tourRunner becomes null. Pin the falsifier: seed an older successful report, reject the current refresh (or reset/start), observe teardown, and prove the readable report is current + failed rather than stale + green.
  • RA-2 — Make the controlled burst honest, bounded, and reversible. Require an explicit bounded positive-integer count before allocation (no hidden ?? 40 host default); identify generated events as tour/demo provenance; do not force a cold/sample surface to live; and restore the exact latest owner-held stream events + adapter state at the take terminal. Align the viewer copy so a controlled burst is not narrated as real Memory Core arrival. Pin missing/invalid/oversized refusal plus exact post-take restoration.

No redesign and no follow-up ticket are requested. One repair head covering RA-1/RA-2 should be terminal.


📊 Evaluation Metrics

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 90 - Correct flagship composition and ownership seams; two truth boundaries need closure.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 88 - The trinity is present, but failure-terminal and demo-state lifecycle witnesses are absent.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 89 - Strong script/tests and real vessel proof; stale terminal state and forged source/liveness are merge blockers.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 96 - Both repairs are local to the newly introduced seams and should converge in one cycle.
  • [IMPACT]: 96 - This is the public Fleet story; truthful playback and reporting have flagship blast radius.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: 52 - Deep lifecycle semantics, bounded implementation surface.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Feature - capstone composition with two surgical correctness repairs.

PR Review Follow-Up Summary

Status: Approved

Cycle: Cycle 2 re-review

Opening: Cycle 1 requested two truth-boundary repairs; this follow-up checks only the repaired head and its exact delta.


🧭 Patch-Blind Premise Snapshot

  • Inputs Read Before Patch: Prior review https://github.com/neomjs/neo/pull/15479#pullrequestreview-4728866264; author A2A response; exact changed-file list; current PR body and merge state; d2fcf48700…d07622db67 source delta.
  • Expected Solution Shape: Preserve one screenplay across demo/e2e/recording. Replace stale terminal truth for every owned attempt and make demo activity explicitly bounded, provenance-honest, adapter-state honest, and reversible without adding a second tour or stream owner.
  • Patch Verdict: Matches and improves the expected shape. Both original falsifiers now reject, and the repair stays inside the existing Fleet hosting seams.
  • Premise Coherence: coheres: verify-before-assert is encoded as current-attempt terminal truth and explicit demo provenance; the repair converges in one cycle without micro-ticket theater.

🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:

  • Decision: Approve
  • Rationale: The repaired head closes both Cycle-1 blockers without changing the accepted flagship architecture. Remaining live-arrival reconciliation policy is ordinary evolution, not a second-cycle merge gate.

⚓ Prior Review Anchor


🔁 Delta Scope

Summarize what changed since the prior review:

  • Files changed: missionControlWalkthrough.mjs; FleetCockpit.mjs; MissionControlWalkthroughNL.spec.mjs; fleetCockpitFusionTour.spec.mjs.
  • PR body / close-target changes: Close target unchanged and remains truthful; screenplay copy now explicitly identifies the controlled demo burst.
  • Branch freshness / merge state: Mergeable at exact-head intake; hosted aggregate jobs were still running when this semantic verdict was earned.

✅ Previous Required Actions Audit

  • Addressed: RA-1 — make lastTourReport current-attempt terminal truth — lastTourReport clears in the synchronous ownership window; thrown reset/refresh/start publishes a structured failed report before ownership releases; seeded stale-success falsifier pinned.
  • Addressed: RA-2 — make the controlled burst honest, bounded, and reversible — explicit integer 1–200; tour:demo-burst provenance; no forced live adapter state; take-terminal restore; viewer copy corrected; unit and live witnesses added.
  • Still open: None.
  • Rejected with rationale: None.

🔬 Delta Depth Floor

  • Delta challenge: I checked whether terminal restoration invents or relabels source truth. It restores the exact pre-take view snapshot; a future policy may reconcile real arrivals occurring during the demo, but this bounded recording contract no longer forges liveness or leaks demo state and the nuance is nonblocking.

🔎 Conditional Audit Delta

N/A Audits — 📡 🔗

N/A across AiConfig/OpenAPI and skill-substrate dimensions: the delta is confined to Fleet tour hosting, screenplay copy, and their witnesses.


🧪 Test-Evidence & Location Audit

  • Evidence: exact-head hosted CI still running at d07622db6784996dad2f5978baeed9a19f46ef50; author per-surface receipt 30/30 units + 2/2 e2e; reviewer falsifier command UNIT_TEST_MODE=true npx playwright test -c test/playwright/playwright.config.unit.mjs test/playwright/unit/apps/agentos/tour/missionControlWalkthrough.spec.mjs test/playwright/unit/apps/agentos/view/fleet/fleetCockpitFusionTour.spec.mjs — 17/17 green.
  • Test location: Pass — stale-report and bounded/restore unit witnesses sit beside FleetCockpit; live terminal restoration stays in the walkthrough NL e2e.
  • Findings: Pass. The new tests discriminate both prior failures.

📑 Contract Completeness Audit

  • Findings: Pass — lastTourReport, tourStreamRestore, the burst cue vocabulary, bounds, provenance, and reversible terminal semantics are documented at the consumed surfaces.

📊 Metrics Delta

Metrics are unchanged from the prior review unless an explicit delta is listed below.

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 90 -> 96; both repairs remain inside the accepted owner seams.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 88 -> 96; current-failure and demo-lifecycle witnesses now exist.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 89 -> 95; both original falsifiers are pinned and green.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 96 -> 98; one repair head reaches terminal approval.
  • [IMPACT]: 96 -> 97; the public Fleet story is now provenance-honest and failure-honest.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: 52 -> 55; a small explicit restore lifecycle was added without new authority.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Feature — unchanged; capstone composition with bounded lifecycle hardening.
