This issue documents specific runtime patches applied to address the "premature success" bug in subagent workflows (see related issue).

Root Cause

This issue documents specific runtime patches applied to address the "premature success" bug in subagent workflows (see related issue).

Fix Action

Fix / Workaround

This issue documents specific runtime patches applied to address the "premature success" bug in subagent workflows (see related issue).

Patched Files

The patches modify how the runtime signals completion to agents:

Code Example

Event: "ready for user delivery"
→ Agent interprets as: task complete, report to user
→ Problem: Subagent text output != external changes verified

---

Event: "available for review"  
+ Instruction: "Verify if external target was actually applied"
→ Agent must check: Is this just analysis or real external change?
→ Result: No "done/complete" claims without evidence

Summary

This issue documents specific runtime patches applied to address the "premature success" bug in subagent workflows (see related issue).

Patched Files

The following files in dist/ directory were modified:

1. compact-1mmJ_KWL.js

Change: Modified internal completion event wording

  • Before: Event indicated "ready for user delivery"
  • After: Event indicates "available for review" with verification instruction

2. pi-embedded-D6PpOsxP.js

Change: Aligned internal event messaging with compact-1mmJ_KWL.js

  • Same wording change from "ready" to "available for review"
  • Added explicit verification requirement

3. reply-BCcP6j4h.js

Change: Consistent event wording update

  • Same pattern as other files
  • Prevents premature completion claims

Technical Details

The patches modify how the runtime signals completion to agents:

Old behavior:

Event: "ready for user delivery"
→ Agent interprets as: task complete, report to user
→ Problem: Subagent text output != external changes verified

New behavior:

Event: "available for review"  
+ Instruction: "Verify if external target was actually applied"
→ Agent must check: Is this just analysis or real external change?
→ Result: No "done/complete" claims without evidence

Verification Required

Agents must now verify before claiming completion:

  1. ✅ Tool result shows actual external modification (GitHub API call, deployment trigger)
  2. ❌ Subagent returned only text/analysis without external scope
  3. ❌ Subagent completed but didn't have permission/scope for external changes

Related

  • Pattern: subagent completed successfully != objective externally verified
  • Applies to: GitHub operations, deployments, any external resource modification

Fix Plan

To address the "premature success" bug in subagent workflows, apply the following steps:

  • Update event wording in relevant files (compact-1mmJ_KWL.js, pi-embedded-D6PpOsxP.js, reply-BCcP6j4h.js) to indicate "available for review" instead of "ready for user delivery".
  • Add explicit verification requirements to ensure agents check for actual external changes before claiming completion.

Example Code Changes

// Before
emitEvent("ready for user delivery");

// After
emitEvent("available for review");
instruction("Verify if external target was actually applied");

// Verification example
if (toolResult.showExternalModification()) {
  // Claim completion
} else {
  // Do not claim completion
}

Verification

To verify the fix, check the following:

  • Agents correctly interpret the new event wording and instruction.
  • Agents verify external changes before claiming completion.
  • Test cases cover different scenarios, including:
    • Successful external modifications.
    • Failed external modifications.
    • Subagent completions without external scope.

Extra Tips

  • Ensure all relevant files are updated with the new event wording and verification requirements.
  • Review and test the changes thoroughly to prevent regressions.
  • Consider adding additional logging or monitoring to detect potential issues with the new verification process.
