PR #80323: [qa-lab] Complete Codex vs Pi runtime parity harness phases 2-5

Description (problem / solution / changelog)

Summary

Adds the Codex-vs-Pi runtime parity QA harness across extensions/qa-lab, including runtime-pair execution, first-hour/depth suite selectors, harness-prompt parity, token-efficiency reporting, tool-default fixtures, JSONL replay scaffolding, and release-check wiring.

This update also corrects the tool-defaults mock lane so the harness matches Codex app-server architecture:

  • Codex-native workspace tools (read, write, edit, apply_patch, exec, process, update_plan) are no longer expected to appear as duplicate OpenClaw dynamic tools.
  • OpenClaw integration tools (image_generate, sessions, web, etc.) remain dynamic-tool parity rows and are tracked separately from Codex-native behavior rows.
  • Optional/profile/plugin-dependent tools stay report-only unless explicitly enabled.
  • Mock provider planned tool calls are captured as provider-plan diagnostics, not as runtime transcript tool evidence.
  • Tool coverage reports now show bucket, expected layer, required/report-only status, product impact, QA impact, and action.

Why

OpenClaw needs a maintainer-runnable gate that compares the same scenario/model under Pi and Codex before Codex becomes the default runtime. The gate must surface real runtime drift without turning mock-provider limitations or intentional Codex-native tool ownership into production bug reports.

Verification

Passing targeted/current-scope checks:

  • pnpm test extensions/qa-lab/src/runtime-tool-fixture.test.ts extensions/qa-lab/src/runtime-parity.test.ts extensions/qa-lab/src/tool-coverage-report.test.ts extensions/qa-lab/src/runtime-suite.test.ts extensions/qa-lab/src/suite.test.ts extensions/qa-lab/src/scenario-catalog.test.ts extensions/qa-lab/src/cli.runtime.test.ts extensions/qa-lab/src/cli.test.ts
  • pnpm tsgo:extensions:test
  • pnpm check:test-types
  • git diff --check

Real Behavior Proof

  • Behavior or issue addressed: Corrects the runtime parity tool-defaults harness so Codex-native workspace tools are no longer falsely required as duplicate OpenClaw dynamic tools, while OpenClaw dynamic integration rows remain visible and tracked.
  • Real environment tested: Local OpenClaw checkout at /Volumes/LEXAR/repos/openclaw-1 on branch codex-vs-pi-runtime-parity-tools, running the real pnpm openclaw qa CLI against the embedded gateway and mock OpenAI provider after this patch.
  • Exact steps or command run after this patch:

  • Evidence after fix: Terminal output produced these real local artifacts: .artifacts/qa-e2e/runtime-tools-correction/qa-suite-summary.json, .artifacts/qa-e2e/runtime-tools-correction/qa-suite-report.md, .artifacts/qa-e2e/runtime-tools-correction/qa-tool-coverage-report.md, .artifacts/qa-e2e/openclaw-dynamic-tools-correction/qa-suite-summary.json, and .artifacts/qa-e2e/runtime-tools-correction/parity/qa-runtime-token-efficiency-report.md.
  • Observed result after fix: tool-defaults completed with 20 scenarios, 15 pass, 5 report-only skip, 0 fail. Tool coverage verdict was pass with 13 required tools, 8 Codex-native workspace tools, 5 OpenClaw dynamic integration tools, 7 optional/profile/plugin tools, and 0 failing tools. The focused openclaw-dynamic-tools suite completed with 5 report-only rows tracked under #80319. Token efficiency report verdict was pass with usage source mock-estimate.
  • What was not tested: Live frontier token-efficiency proof was not completed because local direct OpenAI auth is missing; optional scheduled/Testbox soak-100 proof was not completed; broad first-hour-20 remains red and is tracked in #80434.

Known Broad/Latest Blockers

  • First first-hour-20 attempt hit a pre-suite tsdown SIGSEGV; retry reached QA.
  • OPENCLAW_BUILD_PRIVATE_QA=1 pnpm openclaw qa suite --repo-root . --provider-mode mock-openai --runtime-suite first-hour-20 --runtime-pair pi,codex --output-dir .artifacts/qa-e2e/first-hour-20-correction-retry is not green: 18 total, 6 pass, 12 fail; tracked in #80434.
  • pnpm check fails unrelated Discord lint: #80428.
  • pnpm test fails unrelated agents-core / ACPx / Mattermost shards: #80429, #80430, #80431, #67784.
  • Live token-efficiency proof path renders artifacts, but local direct OpenAI auth is missing so the attempted live run is not valid proof; tracked in #80175.
  • Optional soak-100 exists but is not scheduled/Testbox-wired; tracked in #80433.

TLDR

The maintainer mock first-hour-20 runtime-pair gate is currently runnable but not green on PR #80323. Fresh local rerun produced 18 total / 6 pass / 12 fail.

Priority if OpenClaw moved fully to Codex today: P1 harness readiness / release-gate blocker. Product impact is not automatically proven; several failures look like mock/Codex tool-fidelity gaps, but the gate cannot be advertised as passing until these rows are classified or fixed.

Result

{
  "total": 18,
  "passed": 6,
  "failed": 12
}

Failing Rows

  • Instruction followthrough repo contract: tool-call-shape, Pi calls 4, Codex calls 0
  • Subagent fanout synthesis: tool-call-shape, Pi calls 2, Codex calls 0
  • Subagent handoff: tool-call-shape, Pi calls 1, Codex calls 0
  • Channel baseline conversation: failure-mode
  • Config restart capability flip: tool-call-shape, Pi calls 1, Codex calls 0
  • Memory recall after context switch: structural
  • Thread memory isolation: failure-mode
  • Model switch with tool continuity: tool-call-shape, Pi calls 2, Codex calls 0
  • Approval turn tool followthrough: tool-call-shape, Pi calls 1, Codex calls 0
  • Compaction retry after mutating tool: tool-call-shape, Pi calls 2, Codex calls 0
  • First-hour 20-turn runtime parity: structural
  • Source and docs discovery report: tool-call-shape, Pi calls 1, Codex calls 0

Passing Rows

  • Subagent stale child links
  • Codex auth profile mixed profiles
  • Codex doctor migration safety matrix
  • Codex plugin cold install
  • Codex plugin pinned new
  • Codex plugin pinned old

Expected Fix

Triage each failing row into one of three buckets before this becomes a release gate:

  1. Real Codex runtime regression: file/fix product bug with live/native evidence.
  2. Mock/harness fidelity gap: mark report-only or teach the mock to drive Codex-native/searchable/deferred tools honestly.
  3. Legitimate acceptable drift: encode deterministic tolerance/classification with tests.
