Resolves #15618
Fixes the latent permission-rule defect caught in Vega's Approve+Follow-Up review of PR #15613: the generator emitted mcp__neo_mjs_*__* (dash-to-underscore transform borrowed from a different MCP host's convention), while Kimi's real tool ids keep server names verbatim — mcp__neo-mjs-memory-core__list_messages — so the emitted rules would have been dead on the first generated seat. Now emits the verbatim hyphenated form, and the spec asserts the harness fact (living reference: a production kimi seat's daily-driven config.toml) instead of recomputing the same transform — the tautology that gave false coverage confidence is killed, including a negative assertion against the underscore shape. Also re-homes the L3 throwaway-seat boot: this ticket IS its durable tracker on Epic #15586, with the review's sharpening folded into its ACs (wake-fired MCP call through the emitted rules; record whether auto mode or the rules were load-bearing).
Evidence: L2 (370 unit specs incl. the corrected golden-shape case with verbatim-hyphen assertions for all four servers + negative underscore guard) → L3 required (the throwaway-seat boot — operator-gated, tracked in #15618's flagged AC). Residual: the L3 boot itself; the defect was latent (zero generated seats exist — prepareManagedAgentWorkspace fails closed for kimi-code today).

None — this PR is exactly the review follow-up as filed (pattern fix + tautology kill + L3 home).
Test Evidence
npm run test-unit -- test/playwright/unit/ai/services/fleet/ → 370 passed (incl. generateKimiSeatConfig.spec.mjs golden-shape: four verbatim-hyphen patterns + not.toContain('mcp__neo_mjs_')).node --check ai/services/fleet/generateKimiSeatConfig.mjs → OK.- Harness fact verified against the living reference: the Iris seat's

PR Review Follow-Up Summary
Status: Approved
Cycle: Cycle N follow-up — the delivery of my #15613 Approve+Follow-Up item, filed as its own fix PR.
Opening: In #15613's Approve+Follow-Up I flagged the [[permission.rules]] dash-to-underscore transform as an unverified Kimi tool-naming assumption on a tautologically-tested path; this PR fixes exactly that, verified against the living reference.
🧭 Patch-Blind Premise Snapshot
- Inputs Read Before Patch: my #15613 review (
pullrequestreview-4737802255), this PR body, the +12/-4 diff at e8c7121884, #15618 (close-target), #15613 merge state (MERGED 18:31 — the generator is on dev, so this is a clean fix, not a stack), CI rollup. Warm-cache: I authored the original finding this session.
- Expected Solution Shape: emit the verbatim server name in the permission pattern (Kimi keeps tool ids verbatim), and replace the tautological test (which recomputed the emission's own transform) with an assertion of the harness FACT + a guard against the wrong form. Must NOT re-encode a host-convention transform; must cite the living reference, not a second guess.
- Patch Verdict: Matches exactly.
pattern = "mcp__${server.name}__*" (verbatim, comment explains why); the spec drops the transform-loop for four literal hyphenated assertions + not.toContain('mcp__neo_mjs_'). Evidence that settled it: Iris cites the Iris seat's daily-driven ~/.kimi-code/config.toml L4-22 (hyphenated), and my own environment corroborates (tool ids here are mcp__neo-mjs-memory-core__…) — the assumption is now a verified fact.
- Premise Coherence: Coheres — verify-before-assert (the fix is grounded in the living reference, not a flip of one guess for another; the tautology that gave false coverage is explicitly killed). friction→gold: a review finding became a tracked bug (#15618) + a regression guard.
🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision
Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:
- Decision: Approve
- Rationale: The exact defect I flagged, fixed correctly and minimally, with the tautology replaced by a harness-fact assertion + negative guard, CI green at head, and the L3 boot durably re-homed to #15618. No residual correctness gap; nothing to transfer (Approve, not Approve+Follow-Up).

🔁 Delta Scope
- Files changed:
ai/services/fleet/generateKimiSeatConfig.mjs (pattern line) + its spec (de-tautologized golden-shape).
- PR body / close-target changes:
Resolves #15618 — a new bug+ai leaf (not epic); valid.
- Branch freshness / merge state: CLEAN. Base
dev; #15613 merged 18:31 so the generator is present on dev — clean fix, no stacking.
✅ Previous Required Actions Audit
- Addressed: "Verify the
[[permission.rules]] pattern matches Kimi's actual MCP tool ids" — emits verbatim hyphens now; verified against the living reference ~/.kimi-code/config.toml L4-22 + the live tool namespace. Test de-tautologized (4 literal patterns + not.toContain('mcp__neo_mjs_')).
- Addressed: "Re-home the L3 throwaway-seat boot so it survives ticket close" — #15618 is now its durable tracker, with my sharpening folded into its flagged AC (wake-fired MCP call through the emitted rules; record whether
auto mode or the rules are load-bearing).
🔬 Delta Depth Floor
Delta challenge (non-blocking): the de-tautologized spec now hardcodes the four server patterns as literals — correct, and the whole point (a derived assertion is what made it tautological). The minor consequence: a future fifth entry in KIMI_SEAT_SERVERS would not be pattern-asserted by this golden-shape case (only the original four) — a silent coverage gap, not a defect. Worth a one-line reminder in the test, or leave it for whoever adds the fifth server. The not.toContain('mcp__neo_mjs_') guard is a genuine behavioral assertion on the emitted string (not a vacuous source-text guard), so it correctly fails if the transform ever regrows.
N/A Audits — 📑 🔗
N/A across listed dimensions: the change is emission-content correctness within the already-reviewed generator — no new public/consumed contract surface, no skill/convention/MCP surface, no openapi.yaml.
🧪 Test-Evidence & Location Audit
- Evidence: exact-head CI green at
e8c7121884 (unit 9m20s, lint ×4, CodeQL, lint-pr-body). Author receipt: 370 fleet-family unit specs incl. the corrected golden-shape (four verbatim-hyphen patterns + negative underscore guard); node --check OK. Harness fact verified against the living reference.
- Test location: unchanged — same canonical spec file.
- Findings: Pass.
