AgentXchain v2.65.0

v2.65.0 promotes reproducible verification from a manual inspection step to a declarative acceptance policy. Operators can now require that staged turn evidence replays successfully before acceptance proceeds.

What Changed​

  • New built-in policy rule require_reproducible_verification enforces machine-evidence replay at turn acceptance time. When configured, acceptance is blocked if declared verification.machine_evidence commands fail to reproduce their declared exit codes.
  • Shared verification-replay.js helper ensures verify turn (read-only inspection) and acceptance-time enforcement use the same replay logic — no drift between the inspection and enforcement surfaces.
  • Policy actions block, warn, and escalate are all supported with standard scope filtering (phase, role).
  • Accepted turns now include a compact verification_replay summary recording the replay outcome for audit trails.
  • accept-turn and step CLI output now displays replay status when reproducibility enforcement is active.
  • Fixed 30-second per-command timeout (deterministic, non-configurable in v1).

Why It Matters​

Before this release, verify turn let operators manually check whether evidence was reproducible, but acceptance itself had no enforcement gate. An operator could accept a turn whose evidence no longer held. With require_reproducible_verification, the acceptance boundary enforces reproducibility declaratively — the governed system refuses to accept turns that cannot prove their own claims. This is the bridge between interactive CLI governance and lights-out factory operation: trust is enforced by policy, not by manual vigilance.

Evidence​

  • 115 tests / 29 suites / 0 failures (combined policy-evaluator, runtime-integration, verify-turn, and docs guard suite)
  • Policy evaluator proof: node --test cli/test/policy-evaluator.test.js (AT-RVP-001 through AT-RVP-003)
  • Runtime integration proof: node --test cli/test/policy-runtime-integration.test.js (AT-RVP-004 through AT-RVP-006 — no-evidence block, mismatch block, match-accept with summary)
  • Verify-turn regression: node --test cli/test/verify-turn-command.test.js (8 tests, shared helper)
  • Docs guards: policies, CLI governance, protocol, verify-turn, and approval-policy content tests
  • cd website-v2 && npm run build → clean production build
