feat(telemetry): let the Agent Improver see the kagent lane - #4909
The kagent lane (instance kagent-cluster) runs inside the platform cluster, and every run starts in a fresh sandbox. So it leaves no transcripts on the agent host, and the host checks had nothing to read for it. The Agent Improver could not see the lane, and a zero in the scorecard said nothing about it (#4870). The lane store in devantler-tech/platform#6014 keeps each run's report and transcript under runs/<UTC date>/. It also offers a read-only view through the Kubernetes API. Until now nothing on this side read that view.
This PR is part of #4870 and does not close it. The export itself is platform#6014, which is not merged or deployed yet, and spans are not exported anywhere yet.
What
A reader for the lane store:kagent-lane-runs.sh reads the store read-only through the API server's service proxy, using the scoped context that prod-kube-context.sh resolves.
list prints the run dates.
report <date> and transcript <date> print one run's files.
liveness gives the lane's verdict: 0 producing, 1 not producing, 2 unknown. While the cadence row says suspended, the verdict is NOT-SCHEDULED, and the store is not read.
cadence prints the lane's cadence row.
Fail-closed rules: an unreachable store, a refused read, a missing service or a page it cannot parse is unknown, never an empty list. A file is printed only after the whole read succeeded. kubectl's own error text is never printed, because it can carry the API server's address. Only a fixed class is printed.
Telemetry: the transcript sections' banner now names every registered instance this host cannot see. Today that is kagent-cluster: UNOBSERVED, together with the reader that can see it. A zero below the banner is therefore never read as a quiet lane.
Drift: the drift section reads the kagent row as one engineer entry a day with no improver entry and reports it as unobserved. It never calls the row a match, never calls it drift for having one entry, and leaves it out of the local start figures. A cell the lane cannot have is unknown.
Guide: the cadence guide's kagent section now says how each check treats the lane. It replaces the old note that the checks did not watch it yet.
CI: the new self-test runs as its own Linux job and in macOS batch 2, and both new scripts are in the cleanup-trap census.
Validation
The new reader self-test: 98 checks pass on bash 3.2 and bash 5. It uses a stub kubectl that serves folder indexes shaped like rclone 1.75.2's template. Eleven deliberate breaks of the reader were each caught. They include accepting any page as an index, reading a failed root read as an empty store, printing kubectl's text, ignoring stray run folders, ignoring the suspended row, an off-by-one age limit, judging the oldest run, printing a cut-off transcript, accepting any cadence cell, and treating an empty report as producing.
Telemetry checks: five deliberate breaks of the new telemetry code were each caught by the new checks.
run-affected-tests.sh: it selected 130 tests. 128 passed. Two hit their own deadlines under load: the telemetry suite (1800 s) and its outcome-scope suite (180 s). Run alone, both passed: 1,668 checks in 1,488 s, and 229 checks in 68 s.
Wiring and guards: the CI wiring, contract-invocation, macOS batch, pipefail, GNU-syntax, parse and no-Python guards all pass.
Not checked yet: the reader has not run against the real store, because platform#6014 is not deployed.
The kagent lane runs inside the platform cluster, so it leaves no
transcripts on the agent host, and the host checks had nothing to read
for it (#4870).
- Add kagent-lane-runs.sh, a read-only reader of the lane store
(platform#6014) through the API server's service proxy. It lists the
runs, prints one run's report or transcript, gives a liveness verdict
(0 producing, 1 not producing, 2 unknown; NOT-SCHEDULED while the
cadence row says suspended), and prints the lane's cadence row. An
unreachable store, a refused read or an index it cannot parse is
UNKNOWN, never an empty list, and kubectl's error text is never
printed.
- agent-telemetry.sh names every registered instance this host cannot
see as UNOBSERVED in the transcript sections' banner. Its drift section
reads the kagent row as one entry a day with no improver entry,
reports it UNOBSERVED, and keeps it out of the local start figures.
- Describe the reader and how each check treats the lane in the cadence
guide. Wire the new test into CI (a Linux job and macOS batch 2) and
the cleanup-trap census.

The change adds a read-only reader for kagent run data, including commands for listing runs, reading reports and transcripts, and checking liveness. Agent telemetry now reports kagent cadence and instances without host transcripts. Tests cover the reader and telemetry behavior, and CI runs the reader tests on Ubuntu and macOS.

Merge Risk: Low · previous review 74c22
The reader and telemetry additions are fail-closed in the main paths. One telemetry edge case reports an unreadable registry without a non-zero exit, so callers that check only the exit status see success. Worth fixing before or soon after merge.

Review comments at @.claude/scripts/agent-telemetry.sh:
- Around line 3743-3750: Update report_unobserved_instances so an unreadable
instance registry returns status 2 instead of 0, and update its call in main to
set main_rc=2 when that status is returned. Preserve the existing NOT LISTED
output and ensure the final exit status reports UNKNOWN.
Review comments at @.claude/scripts/kagent-lane-runs.sh:
- Around line 223-233: Update the repeated-call guard in resolve_context so a
cached resolution succeeds only when context is nonempty; if an earlier attempt
failed and context remains empty, return failure rather than allowing callers
such as store_get to proceed with kubectl’s current context.
Review comments at @.claude/scripts/kagent-lane-runs.test.sh:
- Around line 302-304: Update the fixture setup around cadence_md in the two-row
test so AGENTS.md contains only the cadence section’s single kagent row before
the awk insertion. Remove the extra row appended after the Durable memory
heading, leaving exactly two kagent rows in the section; preserve the test
assertion and the separate outside-row case.

When processing untrusted PR-body text that may contain backticks, never interpolate it into a shell here-document, since command substitution could execute it; pass it through a data-safe mechanism such as process substitution.

Learning: For prose “subagent definition” documents under `.claude/agents/**` (e.g., `portfolio-surveyor.md`) that are interpreted by an LLM rather than executed deterministically: in CI, use focused textual contract assertions (e.g., checking required sections, prompts, and structural constraints). Do not attempt behavioral validation by simulating it via non-deterministic model invocations; behavioral validation should require live Surveyor runs.
For executable components under `.claude/scripts/**` (e.g., `release-bot-exemption.sh`): use fixture-driven, deterministic tests that exercise the script logic with controlled inputs/outputs (rather than model calls).

Learning: In shell test harness/ablation scripts, capture the exit status of the command being tested immediately into `rc=$?` on the very next line. Avoid using `$?` as an argument to another command (e.g., `printf ... "$?"` or similar) when the same line also includes `$(...)` command substitution, because shell evaluation/expansion order can replace the tested command’s exit status with the exit status of the command substitution, producing incorrect measurements.

The configured rclone template matches the parser’s relevant markup. Its “Go up” row is not counted as a file row.

The inspected sources do not establish that a healthy run exposes its folder before writing the report. The full run’s write order is not yet defined, so the claimed false verdict is unsupported.

Address the three review findings on #4909.
- agent-telemetry.sh: an unreadable instance registry, or one naming an
instance the banner cannot print, now makes the report exit 2. It used
to print NOT LISTED and exit 0, so a caller reading only the status saw
a clean run. The collector copies in agent-telemetry.test.sh and the
definition copy in agent-telemetry-outcome-scope.test.sh now carry the
registry that sits beside the script in a checkout, and the
malformed-registry all-section case now expects exit 2.
- kagent-lane-runs.sh: a repeat call to resolve_context after a failed
resolution now fails as well. It used to return 0 with an empty
context, and kubectl given an empty --context uses the kubeconfig's
current context, which can be the admin one. A new case lifts the
reader's read functions and proves a second read after a failure is
refused without calling kubectl.
- kagent-lane-runs.test.sh: the two-rows fixture now holds only the two
rows inside the cadence section, and asserts that shape.

The drift section printed UNKNOWN for a missing or unrecognised kagent
cadence row but kept a clean exit status, so a caller checking only the
status read success. Both branches now set main_rc=2, as the scripts
contract requires for an unreadable input.
The test fixture's cadence table now carries the kagent row and the
script copies carry the reader, as a checkout does, so only the cases
that remove or garble the row expect exit 2.
