Product purpose

agy-worker lets Codex use Antigravity CLI (agy) for broad exploration, bounded tasks, and project-scale implementation. Optimize for a useful working result:

1. Dispatch the workflow that matches the user's intent.
2. Have Codex inspect the diff and run driver-owned checks.
3. Continue the same conversation to repair observable failures within the job budget.
4. Deliver a transparent verified, partially_verified, or blocked outcome.

Do not refuse a task merely because its final file list, architecture, or test command is not known before dispatch. Do not require a persona for broad exploration. Personas are optional prompt specializations, not capability or approval gates. A broad report is useful but is never an exhaustive-security or completeness claim.

Start with this file and task-relevant source. Use rg to open only the relevant row in docs/REPO_MAP.md or heading in docs/lessons_learned.md; do not preload the full README, repository map, lessons, roadmap, or test history. Read README.md only when the task changes or verifies user-facing behavior or claims.

Quality and boundaries

A worker envelope is input, never final acceptance evidence. Codex owns the actual diff review and commands it runs. Do not execute commands_run or tests_run from an envelope. A failing quality check should normally produce a bounded same-conversation repair request; it is not a reason to erase a useful candidate or silently retry with a new conversation.

Keep these hard boundaries regardless of workflow:

• Do not let a job write outside its disposable worktree, enter .git, or escape via a symlink. User denylist paths constrain requested writes. Gate --only constrains candidate changed paths after dispatch; --allow only exempts matching undeclared artifacts from rejection. None of these isolate provider reads.
• Treat the entire disposable worktree as worker-readable and potentially transmissible to Google/Gemini. Before every provider launch, require credentials, secrets, user-denied paths, and unrelated private files to be absent from that worktree.
• Provider, probe, and verifier children start with an operational allowlist. Do not pass --provider-env or --verify-env without approval for each variable name and its resulting provider/verifier exposure; values are not persisted, and filtering is not HOME, PATH, filesystem, network, or same-user isolation.
• Never add or recommend --dangerously-skip-permissions or --dangerously-bypass-approvals-and-sandbox.
• Do not modify the user's ~/.gemini/ or ~/.codex/ configuration as a code change.
• Direct agy model/effort selection is caller-owned. Recommendations remain advisory; do not invent thinking flags or change caller-selected model, effort, permissions, authentication, scope policy, or human-required outcomes.
• Do not commit, push, open a PR, publish a release, submit GitHub feedback, install tools, or apply updates without the applicable explicit user approval.
• Do not overstate results: offline tests prove the exercised mechanism, while a green gate is stronger verification for a candidate but not a general correctness claim.
• Do not complete a compatibility goal from a non-activating version observation. If baseline activation needs new evidence or authority, keep the goal active and report that exact blocker instead of silently narrowing the requested outcome.
