# z3ed Agentic Workflow Implementation Plan
|
||
|
||
_Last updated: 2025-10-01 (final update - Phase 6 + AW-02 complete)_
|
||
|
||
This plan decomposes the design additions (Sections 11–15 of `E6-z3ed-cli-design.md`) into actionable engineering tasks. Each workstream contains milestones, owners (TBD), blocking dependencies, and expected deliverables.
|
||
|
||
## 1. Workstreams Overview
|
||
|
||
| Workstream | Goal | Milestone Target | Notes |
|
||
|------------|------|------------------|-------|
|
||
| Resource Catalogue | Provide authoritative machine-readable specs for CLI resources. | Phase 6 | Schema now captures effects/returns metadata for palette/overworld/rom/patch/dungeon; automation pending. |
|
||
| Acceptance Workflow | Enable human review/approval of agent proposals in ImGui. | Phase 7 | Sandbox manager prototype landed; UI work pending. |
|
||
| ImGuiTest Bridge | Allow agents to drive ImGui via `ImGuiTestEngine`. | Phase 6 | Requires harness IPC transport. |
|
||
| Verification Pipeline | Build layered testing + CI coverage. | Phase 6+ | Integrates with harness + CLI suites. |
|
||
| Telemetry & Learning | Capture signals to improve prompts + heuristics. | Phase 8 | Optional/opt-in features. |
|
||
|
||

## 3. Immediate Next Steps (Week of Oct 1-7, 2025)
|
||
|
||
### Priority 0: Debug & Stabilize (Active)
|
||
1. **FIX**: Debug `stoi` crash in `agent run` command execution
|
||
- Error occurs when executing agent commands via ModernCLI
|
||
- Investigate command parsing and proposal creation flow
|
||
|
||
### Priority 1: Complete AW-03 (2-3 hours)
|
||
2. **TEST**: ProposalDrawer with live proposals
|
||
- Create test proposals via CLI with working prompts
|
||
- Verify list view, detail view, filtering, refresh
|
||
- Test Accept/Reject/Delete actions
|
||
|
||
3. **IMPLEMENT**: ROM merging in `AcceptProposal()` method
|
||
- Add ROM reference to ProposalDrawer
|
||
- Load sandbox ROM and merge into main ROM
|
||
- Add save prompt after successful merge
|
||
- Test merge + undo/redo integration
|
||
|
||
### Priority 2: Policy Evaluation (AW-04, 4-6 hours)
|
||
4. **DESIGN**: Policy evaluation framework
|
||
- YAML-based policy configuration (`.yaze/policies/agent.yaml`)
|
||
- Policy types: test requirements, change constraints, review requirements
|
||
- PolicyEvaluator service for checking proposals against rules
|
||
|
||
5. **INTEGRATE**: Policy checks in ProposalDrawer UI
|
||
- Display policy violations in detail view
|
||
- Gate accept button based on policy results
|
||
- Show helpful messages for blocked proposals
|
||
|
||
### Priority 3: Testing Infrastructure (VP-01, ongoing)
|
||
6. **EXPAND**: CLI unit tests for agent commands
|
||
7. **ADD**: Integration tests for proposal workflow
|
||
|
||
### Later: ImGuiTestHarness (IT-01)
|
||
- Spike IPC transport options (socket/HTTP/shared memory)
|
||
- Design harness architecture
|
||
- Create proof-of-concept
|
||
|
||
## 4. Current Issues & Blockers
|
||
|
||
### Active Issues
|
||
1. **BLOCKER**: `std::invalid_argument: stoi: no conversion` crash in `agent run`
|
||
- Occurs when executing generated commands
|
||
- Blocks testing of ProposalDrawer with real proposals
|
||
- Needs immediate investigation
|
||
|
||
### Known Limitations (Non-Blocking)
|
||
1. ROM merging not implemented in `AcceptProposal()` - status updates only
|
||
2. Large diffs truncated at 1000 lines
|
||
3. ProposalDrawer lacks keyboard navigation
|
||
4. Some timer warnings during shutdown (harmless but noisy)
|
||
|
||
## 5. Open Questions
|
||
|
||
- What serialization format should the proposal registry adopt for diff payloads (binary vs. textual vs. hybrid)? \
|
||
➤ Decision: pursue a hybrid package (`.z3ed-diff`) that wraps binary tile/object deltas alongside a JSON metadata envelope (identifiers, texture descriptors, preview palette info). Capture format draft under RC/AW backlog.
|
||
- How should the harness authenticate escalation requests for mutation actions? \
|
||
➤ Still open—evaluate shared-secret vs. interactive user prompt in the harness spike (IT-01).
|
||
- Can we reuse existing regression test infrastructure for nightly ImGui runs or should we spin up a dedicated binary? \
|
||
➤ Investigate during the ImGuiTestHarness spike; compare extending `yaze_test` jobs versus introducing a lightweight automation runner.
|
||
|
||
## 5. Completed Work Summary
|
||
|
||
### Resource Catalogue Workstream (RC) - ✅ COMPLETE
|
||
|
||
The Resource Catalogue workstream has been successfully completed, providing a foundation for AI-driven automation:
|
||
|
||
**Implementation Details**:
|
||
- Created comprehensive schema system in `src/cli/service/resource_catalog.{h,cc}`
|
||
- Implemented resource catalog for: ROM, Patch, Palette, Overworld, Dungeon, and Agent commands
|
||
- Each resource includes: name, description, actions, arguments, effects, and return values
|
||
- Built dual-format serialization: JSON (compact) and YAML (human-readable)
|
||
|
||
**Key Fixes**:
|
||
- Fixed `rom info` segfault by creating dedicated `RomInfo` handler using `FLAGS_rom`
|
||
- Added `rom info` action to resource schema with proper metadata
|
||
- Ensured all ROM commands consistently use flag-based dispatch
|
||
|
||
**Generated Artifacts**:
|
||
- `docs/api/z3ed-resources.yaml` - Authoritative machine-readable API reference
|
||
- Both JSON and YAML output formats validated and working
|
||
- Resource filtering capability (`--resource <name>`) operational
|
||
|
||
**Command Examples**:
|
||
```bash
|
||
# View all resources in YAML
|
||
z3ed agent describe --format yaml
|
||
|
||
# Get specific resource as JSON
|
||
z3ed agent describe --format json --resource rom
|
||
|
||
# Generate documentation file
|
||
z3ed agent describe --format yaml --output docs/api/z3ed-resources.yaml
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Testing Results**:
|
||
All commands tested and verified working:
|
||
- ✅ `z3ed rom info --rom=zelda3.sfc` - displays title, size, filename
|
||
- ✅ `z3ed rom validate --rom=zelda3.sfc` - verifies checksum and header
|
||
- ✅ `z3ed agent describe --format yaml` - outputs complete catalog
|
||
- ✅ `z3ed agent describe --format json --resource rom` - filters by resource
|
||
|
||
### Acceptance Workflow (AW-01, AW-02) - ✅ CORE COMPLETE
|
||
|
||
The foundational infrastructure for proposal tracking and review is now operational:
|
||
|
||
**RomSandboxManager Implementation** (AW-01):
|
||
- Singleton service managing isolated ROM copies for agent proposals
|
||
- Sandboxes created in `YAZE_SANDBOX_ROOT` (env var) or system temp directory
|
||
- Automatic directory creation and ROM file cloning
|
||
- Active sandbox tracking for current agent session
|
||
- Cleanup utilities for removing old sandboxes
|
||
|
||
**ProposalRegistry Implementation** (AW-02):
|
||
- Comprehensive tracking of agent-generated ROM modifications
|
||
- Stores proposal metadata: ID, sandbox ID, prompt, description, timestamps
|
||
- Records execution diffs in `diff.txt` within proposal directory
|
||
- Appends command execution logs to `execution.log` with timestamps
|
||
- Support for screenshot attachments (path tracking)
|
||
- Proposal lifecycle: Pending → Accepted/Rejected
|
||
- Query capabilities: get by ID, list all, filter by status, find latest pending
|
||
|
||
**Agent Run Integration**:
|
||
- `agent run` now creates sandbox + proposal automatically
|
||
- All command executions logged with timestamps and status
|
||
- Success/failure outcomes captured in proposal logs
|
||
- User feedback includes proposal ID and sandbox path for review
|
||
- Foundation ready for `agent diff`, `agent commit`, `agent revert` enhancements
|
||
|
||
**Agent Diff Enhancement** (Completed Oct 1, 2025):
|
||
- Reads proposal diffs from ProposalRegistry automatically
|
||
- Displays detailed metadata: proposal ID, status, timestamps, command count
|
||
- Shows diff content from proposal directory
|
||
- Displays execution log (first 50 lines, with truncation for long logs)
|
||
- Provides next-step guidance (commit/revert/GUI review)
|
||
- Supports `--proposal-id` flag to view specific proposals
|
||
- Fallback to legacy diff behavior if no proposals found
|
||
|
||
**Agent List Command** (New - Oct 1, 2025):
|
||
- Enumerates all proposals in the registry
|
||
- Shows proposal ID, status, creation time, prompt, and stats
|
||
- Indicates pending/accepted/rejected status for each proposal
|
||
- Provides guidance on using `agent diff` to view details
|
||
- Empty state message guides users to create proposals with `agent run`
|
||
|
||
**Resource Catalog Updates**:
|
||
- Added `agent list` action with returns schema
|
||
- Added `agent diff` action with arguments (`--proposal-id`) and returns schema
|
||
- Updated agent resource description to include listing and diffing capabilities
|
||
- Regenerated `docs/api/z3ed-resources.yaml` with new agent actions
|
||
|
||
**ProposalDrawer GUI Component** (Completed Oct 1, 2025):
|
||
- ImGui right-side drawer for proposal review (AW-03)
|
||
- Split view: proposal list (top) + detail view (bottom)
|
||
- List view: table with ID, status, prompt columns; colored status indicators
|
||
- Detail view: collapsible sections for metadata/diff/log; syntax-aware display
|
||
- Action buttons: Accept, Reject, Delete with confirmation dialogs
|
||
- Status filtering (All/Pending/Accepted/Rejected)
|
||
- Integrated into EditorManager with Debug → Agent Proposals menu
|
||
- Accept/Reject updates ProposalRegistry status
|
||
- Delete removes proposal from registry and filesystem
|
||
- TODO: Implement actual ROM merging in AcceptProposal method
|
||
|
||
**CMake Build Integration**:
|
||
- Added `cli/service/proposal_registry.cc` and `cli/service/rom_sandbox_manager.cc` to all app targets
|
||
- Fixed linker errors by including CLI service sources in:
|
||
- `yaze` (main GUI app)
|
||
- `yaze_emu` (emulator standalone)
|
||
- `yaze_core` (testing library)
|
||
- `yaze_c` (C API library)
|
||
- All targets now build successfully with ProposalDrawer dependencies
|
||
|
||
**Architecture Benefits**:
|
||
- Clean separation: RomSandboxManager (file ops) ↔ ProposalRegistry (metadata)
|
||
- Thread-safe with mutex protection for concurrent access
|
||
- Extensible design ready for ImGui review UI (AW-03)
|
||
- Proposal persistence enables post-session review and auditing
|
||
- Proposal-centric workflow enables human-in-the-loop review
|
||
- GUI and CLI both have full access to proposal system
|
||
|
||
**Next Steps for AW Workstream**:
|
||
- Test ProposalDrawer in running application
|
||
- Complete ROM merging in AcceptProposal method
|
||
- AW-04: Policy evaluation for gating mutations
|
||
- AW-05: `.z3ed-diff` hybrid format design
|
||
|
