AgentXchain v2.155.8

v2.155.8 is a dogfood patch over v2.155.7. It aligns the PM idle-expansion charter's JSON schema with the validator's expectations. v2.155.7 fixed the missing output format (GAP-004), but the charter specified vision_traceability as an object and new_intake_intent fields at the top level, while the validator expects vision_traceability as an array and new_intake_intent as a nested object.

Bug Fixes​

  • Charter/validator schema alignment: the PM charter now specifies new_intake_intent as a nested object (matching the validator) and vision_traceability as an array of {vision_heading, goal, kind} entries (matching the validator schema).
  • Backward-compatible normalization: the vision_traceability normalizer now transforms object-shaped traceability ({headings, rationale}) into the expected array format, so PMs that cached the prior charter format still pass validation.

Evidence​

  • cd cli && node --test --test-timeout=60000 test/continuous-run.test.js test/turn-result-validator.test.js test/beta-tester-scenarios/bug-60-perpetual-idle-expansion.test.js -> 178 tests / 34 suites / 0 failures / 0 skipped

Tester Re-Run Contract​

Run the shipped package:

npx --yes -p [email protected] -c "agentxchain --version"

For charter/validator alignment proof, run a continuous perpetual session and quote:

  • the PM dispatch prompt includes the corrected OUTPUT FORMAT section with new_intake_intent as a nested object and vision_traceability as an array
  • the PM produces a structured idle_expansion_result that passes schema validation without manual JSON surgery
  • acceptance succeeds on the first attempt

For downstream closure, start from a clean checkpoint and quote:

  • functional downstream behavior remains fixed: continuous does not idle out in QA, QA advances, launch_ready unblock completes the run, and no duplicate dispatch occurs
  • quote any startup_latency_ms, elapsed_since_spawn_ms, and runtimes.<id>.startup_watchdog_ms evidence relevant to adapter-path reliability while confirming the downstream flow still uses the real runtime path
  • after final terminal approval, status is completed, pending_run_completion=null, and active_turns={}
  • durable events include both gate_approved for run_completion and run_completed
  • non-terminal phase recovery should still quote phase_entered with reconciled_before_dispatch if a standing gate advances before dispatch
  • .agentxchain/continuous-session.json no longer stays at paused with runs_completed=0; quote the terminal session shape after the run completes
  • session_continuation should still be quoted if the continuous session chains into another run; otherwise quote the terminal reason instead

For BUG-55 regression proof, continue using accept-turn followed by checkpoint-turn and quote verification.produced_files, undeclared_verification_outputs, and git status --short.

Clean tree means BUG-55 is fixed for your reproduction.
