# Delegation Readiness Doctor
Turn Hermes delegation from an assumed capability into a provable readiness surface.
## Outcome
narrow week-one claim: confirm the live delegation-readiness gap, then replace it with one canonical audit-to-fix path that ends in a successful delegated run.
## Who this is for
- Hermes operators
- AI builders using subagents for parallel work
- anyone who loses leverage because delegation looks available until it silently fails
## Current live wedge
The original wedge was a stubbed delegation readiness check. That gap is now closed in live code:
- `tools/delegate_tool.py` now implements `check_delegate_requirements()` via a real config-aware readiness check
- `hermes_cli/doctor.py` now exposes a canonical `◆ Delegation Readiness` section
This starter kit now packages the proof line, not just the kickoff gap, so the ship claim stays honest after implementation lands.
## Canonical proof path
1. treat `scripts/verify-current-gap.sh` as the historical kickoff verifier for the original stubbed-check gap
2. run `python -m hermes_cli.main doctor` and confirm `◆ Delegation Readiness` reports the live state
3. run `scripts/prove-broken-state-roundtrip.sh` to prove blocked → ready from an isolated temporary `HERMES_HOME`
4. run one real `delegate_task` proof from the live ready environment
5. freeze the ship/package decision in a durable artifact
## Folder layout
- `scripts/verify-current-gap.sh` — current-gap verifier that writes a durable report
- `scripts/prove-broken-state-roundtrip.sh` — isolated blocked→ready doctor roundtrip proof that leaves the real `~/.hermes/config.yaml` untouched
- `scripts/emit-pr-review-monitor.sh` — live GitHub PR monitor for the clean upstream handoff surface
- `scripts/emit-ci-result-interpreter.sh` — fail-closed first-CI interpreter that maps the first real check-run result back to the clean local proof line
- `scripts/emit-workflow-approval-brief.sh` — blocker-specific brief for the current fork-workflow approval gate
- `scripts/emit-workflow-approval-state-change.sh` — state-change detector; surfaces blocker-clear transitions vs. persist states so automation knows when maintainer approval happened without manual snapshot comparison
- `scripts/emit-workflow-approval-trigger.sh` — posting-state-aware nudge/approval packet for the repeated fork-workflow approval stall; prints `WORKFLOW_APPROVAL_TRIGGER_ALREADY_POSTED` when the maintainer request is already live so automation does not mistake a reference-only packet for a fresh action, and prints `WORKFLOW_APPROVAL_TRIGGER_CONTENT_STABLE` without writing a new timestamped artifact when the generated packet is materially identical to the current `latest-*` trigger
- `scripts/sync-reviewer-handoff-baseline.sh` — keeps `latest-reviewer-handoff.md` aligned to the live PR head/base before state-change detection; polls GitHub mergeability before writing so the handoff does not regress to first-response `mergeability unknown` noise
- `scripts/refresh-upstream-blocker-packet.sh` — one-command refresh that syncs the reviewer handoff, reruns the state-change detector, PR monitor, CI interpreter, and approval trigger together, then emits a consolidated blocker packet from the same live PR state; prints `UPSTREAM_BLOCKER_PACKET_UNCHANGED` when the blocker signature is materially identical to the previous latest packet so cron can distinguish revalidation from a real transition; unchanged runs restore prior `latest-*` files and delete just-created timestamped component artifacts so approval-wait cron passes do not dirty the workspace with no-movement files
- `scripts/verify-unchanged-refresh-hygiene.sh` — proof harness for the external-wait loop breaker; snapshots canonical `latest-*` hashes and timestamped artifact names, runs the one-command refresh, and proves an unchanged blocker refresh leaves no local artifact churn behind
- `scripts/validate-artifact-consistency.sh` — fail-closed consistency check that requires the consolidated blocker packet plus every canonical component blocker artifact to record the same live head/base pair before the packet is trusted
- `artifacts/latest-current-gap-report.md` — most recent proof packet emitted by the gap verifier
- `artifacts/latest-broken-state-roundtrip.md` — canonical blocked-state proof packet with before/after doctor output
- `artifacts/latest-pr-review-monitor.md` — canonical live review/merge monitor for PR `#14297`
- `artifacts/latest-ci-result-interpreter.md` — first-CI decision surface that fail-closes until real check runs exist, then routes pass/fail signals back to the proof artifacts
- `artifacts/latest-workflow-approval-brief.md` — exact maintainer action surface when GitHub Actions suites stay `action_required` with `0` check runs
- `artifacts/latest-workflow-approval-state-change.md` — state-change detector; records previous vs current action_required suite count and check-run count so automation can detect when the blocker cleared vs still persists
- `artifacts/latest-workflow-approval-trigger.md` — posting-state-aware maintainer nudge/reference packet + exact approval/recheck surfaces for the current head SHA
- `artifacts/latest-reviewer-handoff.md` — blocker-specific maintainer brief that maps the PR diff to proof, verification commands, and merge criteria
- `artifacts/latest-upstream-blocker-refresh.md` — consolidated one-command blocker packet used by recurring momentum blocks to decide whether the blocker changed, stayed external, or needs current-base refresh
## Fast start
From the Hermes repo root:
```bash
python -m hermes_cli.main doctor
bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/prove-broken-state-roundtrip.sh
bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/emit-pr-review-monitor.sh
bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/emit-ci-result-interpreter.sh
bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/emit-workflow-approval-brief.sh
bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/emit-workflow-approval-state-change.sh
bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/emit-workflow-approval-trigger.sh
bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/refresh-upstream-blocker-packet.sh
bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/verify-unchanged-refresh-hygiene.sh
```
Historical kickoff verifier:
```bash
bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/verify-current-gap.sh
```
Expected results right now:
- `python -m hermes_cli.main doctor` includes `◆ Delegation Readiness`
- the roundtrip verifier exits successfully, writes a timestamped markdown report under `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/`, and prints `BROKEN_STATE_ROUNDTRIP_PROVED`
- the historical gap verifier now exits non-zero because the original unconditional-stub gap is no longer present
That failure is honest evidence that the MVP moved past the kickoff gap and should now be judged on the readiness + roundtrip + delegated-run proof line.
## Honest Monday artifact freeze
What is now frozen on disk:
- the product thesis and scope
- the exact live blocker to attack first
- one executable verifier entrypoint that proves the blocker is real
## Week-one non-goals
- full delegation UX redesign
- multi-provider credential orchestration cleanup
- dashboard/control-plane expansion
- claiming delegation is fixed before one real delegated run passes

# Delegation Readiness Doctor — Broken-State Roundtrip
Generated: 2026-04-22 19:31 CDT
## Result
BROKEN_STATE_ROUNDTRIP_PROVED
## Broken state induced
- Temporary isolated `HERMES_HOME` was created under `mktemp`.
- `config.yaml` inside that isolated home was set to:
- `delegation.provider: minimax`
- `delegation.model: MiniMax-M2.7`
- `MINIMAX_API_KEY` and `MINIMAX_CN_API_KEY` were explicitly removed from the doctor subprocess environment so the readiness path had to fail on missing credentials instead of inheriting the real machine state.
## Before repair — doctor output
```text
◆ Delegation Readiness
⚠ Delegation blocked (Delegation provider 'minimax' resolved but has no API key. Set the appropriate environment variable or run 'hermes auth'.)
→ Set a working delegation.provider or delegation.base_url/api_key, or clear the override to inherit the parent runtime.
◆ Skills Hub
```
## Canonical repair path
1. Clear the delegation override so subagents inherit the parent runtime.
2. Re-run `python -m hermes_cli.main doctor`.
3. Confirm `◆ Delegation Readiness` flips from blocked to ready before trusting delegated work.
## After repair — doctor output
```text
◆ Delegation Readiness
✓ Delegation ready (no delegation override configured; subagents inherit the parent runtime when invoked from an active Hermes session)
◆ Skills Hub
⚠ Skills Hub directory not initialized (run: hermes skills list)
```
## Proof notes
- The broken state was isolated to a temporary `HERMES_HOME`; the real `~/.hermes/config.yaml` was not modified.
- The ready state after repair was proved by replacing the isolated config with an empty config (`{}`), which removes the delegation override entirely.
- Script used: `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/prove-broken-state-roundtrip.sh`
## Honest next move
Run one real delegated task from the live ready environment and append that proof to the canonical packet.

- `delegate_task` completed successfully from the live ready environment after the broken-state roundtrip proof was generated.
- Summary: `Live delegation verified post-blocked-state roundtrip. Working directory: /Users/hermesmasteragent/.hermes/hermes-agent | Newest broken-state artifact: broken-state-roundtrip-2026-04-22T19-31-03-0500.md`
## Honest next move
Sync the work stream and CEO notes to point at this canonical roundtrip packet, then decide whether the MVP is ready to call shipped or needs one more packaging/launch artifact.

# Delegation Readiness Doctor — Current Gap Report
Generated: 2026-04-22 18:06 CDT
## Result
CURRENT_GAP_CONFIRMED
## What was checked
- Parsed `tools/delegate_tool.py` with Python AST
- Located `check_delegate_requirements()` at line 85
- Confirmed the function still consists of only a docstring plus `return True`
- Confirmed the delegation tool registration still wires `check_fn=check_delegate_requirements` at line 1215
- Confirmed reusable doctor surfaces already exist in `hermes_cli/doctor.py` at lines 102 and 1023
## Why this matters
Hermes still advertises delegation readiness as always available even though the weekly MVP factory now depends on delegation as a real execution layer.
## Evidence
### Current function docstring
> Delegation has no external requirements -- always available.
### Current function body
```python
def check_delegate_requirements() -> bool:
"""Delegation has no external requirements -- always available."""
return True
```
## Honest next move
Replace the stubbed readiness check with one real config-aware check, surface that state through a canonical doctor/readiness command, then prove one passing delegated run.

# Delegation Readiness Doctor — Historical Kickoff Gap Report
Updated: 2026-04-22 20:13 CDT
## Status
HISTORICAL_BASELINE_ONLY
## Why this file changed
`tools/delegate_tool.py` no longer contains the original unconditional `return True` stub in `check_delegate_requirements()`.
The kickoff gap that this report originally documented has been fixed in live code, so the prior `CURRENT_GAP_CONFIRMED` result is no longer an honest description of the current repo state.
## What is true now
- `check_delegate_requirements()` is config-aware
- `python -m hermes_cli.main doctor` exposes `◆ Delegation Readiness`
- the canonical live proof has moved to:
- `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/latest-readiness-proof.md`
- `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/latest-broken-state-roundtrip.md`
- the live delegated-run proof captured in the ship review artifact
## Historical role of this file
This path is retained to preserve the original Monday kickoff evidence: the MVP began with a real stubbed readiness check and a real need for an honest doctor surface.
## Honest next move
Judge the MVP on the readiness + broken-state roundtrip + delegated-run proof line, not on the now-closed kickoff stub.

# Delegation Readiness Doctor — PR Branch Refresh
Generated: 2026-04-23 16:34 CDT
PR: https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/14297
## Why this artifact exists
The approval-only blocker model had gone stale again. A live blocker refresh at 16:31 CDT reported `BASE_BRANCH_ADVANCED`, and `fork/hermes/delegation-readiness-doctor-clean...origin/main` was `5 10`, so the honest blocker was renewed branch freshness rather than pure workflow approval.
## Evidence checked first
- Current upstream base after live fetch: `a0d8dd7ba30c193390c71360e94991f61f4c4ef3`
- PR head before correction: `36196270163c7981063f99d311a14da4eb7c69c2`
- PR base SHA before correction from GitHub API baseline: `64e61656862b24776d5d7f5b87699097a16b9ec3`
- Ahead / behind before correction (`fork/hermes/delegation-readiness-doctor-clean...origin/main`): `5 10` (`PR-only / origin-main-only`)
- Interpretation: the PR branch had fallen ten commits behind live `origin/main`, so maintainer workflow approval was not the only honest blocker.
## Proof on current base
A fresh detached worktree from live `origin/main` accepted the exact MVP feature commits `f513117f` and `dc813f93`, then reran the focused proof suite successfully.
### Commands
```bash
git fetch --all --prune
git worktree add --detach "$TMP_DIR" origin/main
cd "$TMP_DIR"

- Called GitHub's `update-branch` API for PR `#14297` with expected old head `36196270163c7981063f99d311a14da4eb7c69c2`.
- GitHub accepted the refresh with HTTP `202 Accepted` and updated the PR branch.
- Refetched the PR branch and confirmed the head moved to `6bbda6f7a1fdf045001a4ac676871f9607502074`.
- Patched `refresh-upstream-blocker-packet.sh` to sync `latest-reviewer-handoff.md` before the state-change detector runs, because that handoff is the detector's base-SHA baseline.
- Added `sync-reviewer-handoff-baseline.sh` so future one-command refreshes do not falsely report `BASE_BRANCH_ADVANCED` immediately after a successful branch refresh.
- Regenerated `latest-workflow-approval-state-change.md`, `latest-pr-review-monitor.md`, `latest-ci-result-interpreter.md`, `latest-workflow-approval-trigger.md`, `latest-workflow-approval-brief.md`, `latest-reviewer-handoff.md`, and `latest-upstream-blocker-refresh.md` against the refreshed head/base pair.
## Live state after correction
- Current upstream base from fetch: `a0d8dd7ba30c193390c71360e94991f61f4c4ef3`
- Current PR head: `6bbda6f7a1fdf045001a4ac676871f9607502074`
- Ahead / behind now (`fork/hermes/delegation-readiness-doctor-clean...origin/main`): `6 0` (`PR-only / origin-main-only`)
- Current workflow state after refresh: `5 action_required suites / 0 check runs / 0 reviews / 1 existing maintainer-request comment`
- State-change detector after baseline sync: `BLOCKER_PERSISTS`, not false `BASE_BRANCH_ADVANCED`
## What uncertainty closed
The blocker is no longer ambiguous stale-base drift on head `36196270…`; the PR was refreshed again and the blocker is honestly back to maintainer workflow approval on refreshed head `6bbda6f7a1fdf045001a4ac676871f9607502074`.
## Exact next move
Do not repost the existing maintainer nudge. Wait for maintainer workflow approval, first check-run activity, or review movement on head `6bbda6f7a1fdf045001a4ac676871f9607502074`, then rerun `bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/refresh-upstream-blocker-packet.sh` and answer that exact state from the refreshed packet.

## Live blocker
5 GitHub Actions check suite(s) are present but stuck at `action_required`; the true blocker is still maintainer workflow approval or equivalent maintainer intervention, even if a nudge comment already exists.
## Exact next move
If the action-required suites remain, get the fork PR workflows approved or otherwise nudged by a maintainer; once automation can run or a review appears, answer the first upstream signal with exact proof references from the starter-kit artifacts.
## Proof note
This report was emitted from the GitHub API (authenticated when a local token is available) so the repo-durability blocker is grounded in live PR state without depending on the lower public rate limit.

# Delegation Readiness Doctor — Readiness Proof
Generated: 2026-04-22 18:50 CDT
## Result
READINESS_SURFACE_SHIPPED
## What changed this block
- Added `get_delegate_readiness_status()` to `tools/delegate_tool.py` so delegation readiness is no longer an unconditional stub.
- Replaced `check_delegate_requirements()` with a config-aware readiness gate.
- Added a canonical `◆ Delegation Readiness` section to `hermes doctor` via `hermes_cli/doctor.py`.
- Added focused tests for both the delegate readiness helper and the doctor output path.
## Verification
### Focused tests
- `pytest tests/tools/test_delegate.py -q -k 'available_when_no_override_is_configured or available_when_override_resolves or unavailable_when_override_resolution_fails or readiness_status_exposes_fix_path'`
- `pytest tests/hermes_cli/test_doctor.py -q -k 'delegation_readiness or reports_ready_status or reports_blocked_status_with_fix'`
- Result: 4 passed + 2 passed
### Live readiness diagnosis
```python
{'available': True, 'reason': 'override resolves successfully via minimax', 'fix': '', 'details': {'model': 'MiniMax-M2.7', 'provider': 'minimax', 'base_url': 'https://api.minimax.io/v1', 'api_key': 'sk-cp-...4le8', 'api_mode': 'chat_completions'}}
```
### Doctor surface
`python -m hermes_cli.main doctor` now includes:
- `◆ Delegation Readiness`
- `✓ Delegation ready (override resolves successfully via minimax)`
### Passing delegated run
A real `delegate_task` proof run completed successfully after the patch and returned a summary confirming the new readiness surfaces in:
- `tools/delegate_tool.py`
- `hermes_cli/doctor.py`
- `tests/tools/test_delegate.py`
- `tests/hermes_cli/test_doctor.py`
## Honest next move
Use the new doctor/readiness surface to identify one intentionally broken delegation state, then prove the fix path flips the doctor call from blocked to ready and still ends in a passing delegated run.

# Delegation Readiness Doctor — Maintainer Review Handoff
Generated: 2026-04-23 16:35 CDT
PR: https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/14297
State: **open · mergeable · refreshed onto current main · approval-blocked at 5 `action_required` suites / 0 check runs · 0 reviews · 1 issue comment**
---
## One-line verdict
`hermes doctor` now surfaces a config-aware delegation readiness gate; the full broken→ready→delegated-run proof line still holds after replaying the MVP surface onto current `origin/main` (131 tests passing, 0 failures).
## Freshness note
- PR branch was refreshed onto current `main` again at 2026-04-23 16:35 CDT via GitHub update-branch
- Current PR head SHA: `6bbda6f7a1fdf045001a4ac676871f9607502074`
- Current PR base SHA: `a0d8dd7ba30c193390c71360e94991f61f4c4ef3`
- Branch-refresh proof: `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/latest-pr-branch-refresh.md`
## Current workflow-approval blocker
- `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/latest-pr-review-monitor.md` now shows `5` GitHub Actions check suites, `0` check runs, combined status `pending`, and `1` issue comment
- `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/latest-workflow-approval-brief.md` records the exact `action_required` suite IDs / API URLs for the current refreshed head after branch update
- `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/latest-workflow-approval-trigger.md` now packages the current live-state maintainer nudge reference plus direct PR/checks/action surfaces for refreshed head `6bbda6f7a1fdf045001a4ac676871f9607502074`
- `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/latest-workflow-approval-state-change.md` carries the prior-vs-current blocker state so the next approval or CI-start transition is machine-detectable instead of another snapshot comparison
- `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/latest-ci-result-interpreter.md` is the fail-closed first-CI decision surface once workflows are approved; until then it proves that the blocker is still approval rather than a hidden test failure
- Honest interpretation: the PR is waiting on maintainer workflow approval for the refreshed forked head before CI can actually start, not on more local proof work
- Exact next move: keep the refreshed approval packet aligned to head `6bbda6f7a1fdf045001a4ac676871f9607502074`, then rerun `bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/emit-pr-review-monitor.sh` and `bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/emit-ci-result-interpreter.sh` as soon as a real check run or review appears; if a failing run appears, answer that concrete failure directly from the proof artifacts below instead of treating the PR as approval-blocked

---
## Proof chain (in order of execution)
### 1. Gap confirmation (historical — now closed)
`bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/verify-current-gap.sh`
- Was the kickoff verifier for the original unconditional-stub gap
- Now exits non-zero — honest evidence the stub is fixed
### 2. Live doctor surface
```bash
python -m hermes_cli.main doctor
```
Output includes:
```
◆ Delegation Readiness
✓ Delegation ready (override resolves successfully via minimax)
```
### 3. Broken-state roundtrip (isolated — real `~/.hermes/config.yaml` untouched)
`bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/prove-broken-state-roundtrip.sh`
- Creates temporary `HERMES_HOME` with bad delegation config
- Confirms doctor reports `⚠ Delegation blocked`
- Clears override → confirms doctor flips to `✓ Delegation ready`
- Emits: `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/latest-broken-state-roundtrip.md`
### 4. Clean-worktree verification (definitive proof)
```bash
pytest -q -n0 tests/tools/test_delegate.py tests/tools/test_delegate_credentials.py tests/hermes_cli/test_doctor.py
```
Run in a detached worktree overlaid only with the PR file set:
```
131 passed, 1 warning in 3.32s
```
Full output in: `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/latest-clean-commit-surface.md`
---
## Live delegated-run proof
A real `delegate_task` call from the ready environment returned:
```
READY: delegation executed successfully
```
Confirmed in: `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/latest-ship-review.md`
---
## What is NOT in this PR
- No credential orchestrator redesign
- No delegation UX overhaul
- No multi-provider credential cleanup
- No dashboard/control-plane additions
Scope is intentionally narrow: prove delegation readiness is observable, fail-closed, and repairable before trusting delegated work.
---
## Immediate maintainer action checklist
- [ ] **Review** — skim `tools/delegate_tool.py` diff (readiness gate) and `hermes_cli/doctor.py` diff (output section)
- [ ] **Verify locally** — run `python -m hermes_cli.main doctor`; confirm `◆ Delegation Readiness` appears
- [ ] **Verify locally** — run `bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/prove-broken-state-roundtrip.sh`; confirm `BROKEN_STATE_ROUNDTRIP_PROVED`
- [ ] **Verify locally** — run `pytest -q -n0 tests/tools/test_delegate.py tests/tools/test_delegate_credentials.py tests/hermes_cli/test_doctor.py`; confirm 131 pass
- [ ] **Merge** if all above hold

# Delegation Readiness Doctor — Ship Review
Generated: 2026-04-22 20:13 CDT
## Ship decision
SHIPPABLE_ON_PROVED_LINE
## Honest shipped claim
From a live Hermes repo state, the delegation readiness surface can:
1. report live readiness through `python -m hermes_cli.main doctor`
2. fail closed on an intentionally broken delegation override from an isolated temporary `HERMES_HOME`
3. show the canonical repair path back to ready
4. complete a real delegated run from the live ready environment
## Proof / evidence checked this block
### Live doctor call
- Command: `python -m hermes_cli.main doctor`
- Verified output included:
- `◆ Delegation Readiness`
- `✓ Delegation ready (override resolves successfully via minimax)`
### Broken-state roundtrip
- Command: `bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/prove-broken-state-roundtrip.sh`
- Result: `BROKEN_STATE_ROUNDTRIP_PROVED`
- Fresh artifact emitted at:
- `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/broken-state-roundtrip-2026-04-22T20-07-18-0500.md`
- `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/latest-broken-state-roundtrip.md`
### Live delegated run
- Tool: `delegate_task`
- Goal used: `Return a one-line confirmation that delegation executed successfully.`
- Result: `READY: delegation executed successfully`
## Packaging corrections made in the same block
- Updated `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/README.md` so it no longer claims the original unconditional-stub gap still exists.
- Replaced `artifacts/latest-current-gap-report.md` with a historical-baseline note so the starter kit stops presenting stale kickoff proof as live truth.
- Froze this ship review as the canonical package decision artifact.
## Remaining blocker
The product claim is proved, but repo durability is not yet frozen into an isolated clean commit surface. `git status --short` still shows broad unrelated working-tree changes outside this starter kit.
## Exact next move
Isolate the Delegation Readiness Doctor changes into a clean commit/PR surface, then package launch/distribution from that durable repo state instead of from a mixed working tree.

# Delegation Readiness Doctor — Upstream Blocker Refresh
Generated: 2026-04-23 16:35 CDT
## Why this artifact exists
One-command refresh of the live upstream blocker packet so a cron pass can update every approval/CI artifact together and make one honest blocker call from the same head SHA.
## Refreshed surfaces
- `latest-reviewer-handoff.md`
- `latest-workflow-approval-state-change.md`
- `latest-pr-review-monitor.md`

- State-change verdict: `BLOCKER_PERSISTS`
- CI interpreter verdict: `WAITING_FOR_WORKFLOW_APPROVAL`
- Maintainer trigger mode: `already-posted reference only`
- Artifact consistency: `consistent`
## Live blocker
5 GitHub Actions check suite(s) are present but stuck at `action_required`; the true blocker is still maintainer workflow approval or equivalent maintainer intervention, even if a nudge comment already exists.
## Exact next move
Maintainer workflow approval is still the blocker. The maintainer unblock request is already posted, so do not repost it unless the blocker signature changes materially; wait for a detector-visible approval, review, or check-run start and then refresh the PR/CI packet immediately.
## Change vs previous packet
No material blocker-state change since the previous `latest-upstream-blocker-refresh.md` snapshot; this run refreshed the packet and confirmed the blocker is unchanged.
## Verification note
This packet is only honest if the five component artifacts above were refreshed in the same run and agree on the live head/base SHA pair. Re-run this script instead of refreshing those files piecemeal when the next cron pass needs a current blocker packet.

# Delegation Readiness Doctor — Validator Scope Hardening
Generated: 2026-04-23 21:57 CDT
## Why this artifact exists
The live upstream blocker stayed externally unchanged, so this block did not create another approval-wait status packet or repost the maintainer nudge. Instead, Hermes closed a local trust gap in the blocker-packet validator.
## Gap found
`validate-artifact-consistency.sh` checked the component artifacts but did not check the consolidated packet that recurring momentum blocks actually trust: `artifacts/latest-upstream-blocker-refresh.md`.
That meant a future drift where the consolidated packet disagreed with the component artifacts could still pass the consistency check.
## Correction made
- Added `latest-upstream-blocker-refresh.md` to the validator's canonical artifact list.
- Updated the starter-kit README so the validator contract now explicitly covers the consolidated blocker packet plus every canonical component artifact.
## Verification
Command:
```bash
bash -n starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/validate-artifact-consistency.sh \
&& bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/validate-artifact-consistency.sh \
&& bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/verify-unchanged-refresh-hygiene.sh

GitHub has created Actions check suites for the PR head commit, but no check runs have started. With every suite concluded as `action_required`, this is the fork-workflow approval gate, not a missing-test surface.
## Action-required suites

## Exact maintainer move
A maintainer with repo permissions needs to approve and run the PR workflows for this forked branch/head commit. After approval, rerun `bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/emit-pr-review-monitor.sh` and confirm the surface changes from `action_required` suites / `0` check runs to real check runs or status contexts.
## Verification after approval
1. Refresh `latest-pr-review-monitor.md`.
2. Confirm at least one real check run or status context exists for head `6bbda6f7a1fdf045001a4ac676871f9607502074`.
3. If a failing run appears, answer that concrete failure from `latest-reviewer-handoff.md` instead of treating the PR as approval-blocked.
## Proof note
This brief is generated from the GitHub API (authenticated when a local token is available) and is meant to collapse a repeated blocker into one exact decision surface without tripping public rate limits.

## Detected transitions
- Approval transition (action_required → cleared): **no**
- CI started transition (0 check runs → >0): **no**
- Base branch drift (origin/main advanced since last refresh): **no**
## Exact next move
Maintainer workflow approval is still the blocker. The maintainer unblock request is already posted, so do not repost it unless the blocker signature changes materially; wait for a detector-visible approval, review, or check-run start and then refresh the PR/CI packet immediately.
## Check run details
- none yet
## Suite details
- Suite 65956809779 — completed / action_required
- Suite 65956809797 — completed / action_required

# Delegation Readiness Doctor — Workflow Approval Trigger
Generated: 2026-04-23 16:35 CDT
PR: https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/14297
Head ref: `NplusM420:hermes/delegation-readiness-doctor-clean`
Head SHA: `6bbda6f7a1fdf045001a4ac676871f9607502074`
Base SHA: `a0d8dd7ba30c193390c71360e94991f61f4c4ef3`
## Live signature
- Combined status state: pending
- Combined status contexts: 0
- Check runs: 0
- Check suites: 5
- Action-required suites: 5
## Exact blocker
GitHub has already created Actions suites for the fork PR head commit, but every suite is still `action_required` and no check runs exist yet. The blocker is maintainer workflow approval / run permission, not missing local proof.
## Direct approval surfaces

## Maintainer nudge status
```text
Existing maintainer unblock request already posted by `NplusM420`; do not repost unless the blocker signature changes materially. Use the text below only as the current live-state reference.
Maintainer unblock request for PR #14297:
The Delegation Readiness Doctor PR is ready for review, but GitHub has the fork workflows stuck at `action_required` for head `6bbda6f7a1fdf045001a4ac676871f9607502074`.
Live blocker signature right now:
- combined status: `pending`
- check runs: `0`
- check suites: `5`
- action_required suites: `5`
Please approve and run the fork PR workflows for this head commit. After that, rerun:
`bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/emit-pr-review-monitor.sh`
If a real failing run appears, the proof/repair packet is already frozen in `starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/artifacts/latest-reviewer-handoff.md` and `latest-broken-state-roundtrip.md`.
```
## Verification after approval
1. Run `bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/emit-pr-review-monitor.sh`.
2. Confirm `latest-pr-review-monitor.md` shows at least one real check run or status context for head `6bbda6f7a1fdf045001a4ac676871f9607502074`.
3. If CI fails, answer that concrete failure from `latest-reviewer-handoff.md` instead of repeating the approval blocker.
## Proof note
This trigger artifact exists so the recurring blocker can be attacked with one exact nudge packet and one exact verification step instead of another status-only monitor refresh, even when unauthenticated public API rate limits would otherwise stall the packet refresh.

## Exact blocker
GitHub has already created Actions suites for the fork PR head commit, but every suite is still `action_required` and no check runs exist yet. The blocker is maintainer workflow approval / run permission, not missing local proof.
## Direct approval surfaces
- PR conversation: {pr_url}
- PR checks tab: {checks_url}
- Repo Actions filtered to this branch: {actions_url}
## Action-required suites
{suite_lines}
## {ready_to_post_block_title}
```text
{ready_to_post_preface}{ready_to_post}
```
## Verification after approval
1. Run `bash starter-kits/delegation-readiness-doctor/scripts/emit-pr-review-monitor.sh`.
2. Confirm `latest-pr-review-monitor.md` shows at least one real check run or status context for head `{sha}`.
3. If CI fails, answer that concrete failure from `latest-reviewer-handoff.md` instead of repeating the approval blocker.
## Proof note
This trigger artifact exists so the recurring blocker can be attacked with one exact nudge packet and one exact verification step instead of another status-only monitor refresh, even when unauthenticated public API rate limits would otherwise stall the packet refresh.

Generated: {report_time}
## Result
BROKEN_STATE_ROUNDTRIP_PROVED
## Broken state induced
- Temporary isolated `HERMES_HOME` was created under `mktemp`.
- `config.yaml` inside that isolated home was set to:
- `delegation.provider: minimax`
- `delegation.model: MiniMax-M2.7`
- `MINIMAX_API_KEY` and `MINIMAX_CN_API_KEY` were explicitly removed from the doctor subprocess environment so the readiness path had to fail on missing credentials instead of inheriting the real machine state.
## Before repair — doctor output
```text
{blocked}
```
## Canonical repair path
1. Clear the delegation override so subagents inherit the parent runtime.
2. Re-run `python -m hermes_cli.main doctor`.
3. Confirm `◆ Delegation Readiness` flips from blocked to ready before trusting delegated work.
## After repair — doctor output
```text
{ready}
```
## Proof notes
- The broken state was isolated to a temporary `HERMES_HOME`; the real `~/.hermes/config.yaml` was not modified.
- The ready state after repair was proved by replacing the isolated config with an empty config (`{{}}`), which removes the delegation override entirely.
- Script used: `{relative_script}`
## Honest next move
Run one real delegated task from the live ready environment and append that proof to the canonical packet.

Generated: {now}
## Why this artifact exists
One-command refresh of the live upstream blocker packet so a cron pass can update every approval/CI artifact together and make one honest blocker call from the same head SHA.
## Refreshed surfaces
- `latest-reviewer-handoff.md`
- `latest-workflow-approval-state-change.md`
- `latest-pr-review-monitor.md`
- `latest-ci-result-interpreter.md`
- `latest-workflow-approval-trigger.md`
- `latest-workflow-approval-brief.md`
## Live summary
- Head SHA: `{head_sha}`
- Base SHA: `{base_sha}`
- Mergeable: `{mergeable}`
- Mergeable state: `{mergeable_state}`
- Review / issue comment / review comment counts: `{review_count} / {issue_comment_count} / {review_comment_count}`
- Combined status: `{combined_status}`
- Check runs: `{check_runs}`
- Action-required suites: `{action_required}`
- State-change verdict: `{state_change_verdict}`
- CI interpreter verdict: `{ci_verdict}`
- Maintainer trigger mode: `{trigger_mode}`
- Artifact consistency: `{artifact_consistency}`
## Live blocker
{blocker}
## Exact next move
{next_move}
## Change vs previous packet
{change_summary}
## Verification note
This packet is only honest if the component artifacts above were refreshed in the same run and agree on the live head/base SHA pair. Re-run this script instead of refreshing those files piecemeal when the next cron pass needs a current blocker packet.

## Result
CURRENT_GAP_CONFIRMED
## What was checked
- Parsed `{relative_delegate}` with Python AST
- Located `check_delegate_requirements()` at line {fn_line}
- Confirmed the function still consists of only a docstring plus `return True`
- Confirmed the delegation tool registration still wires `check_fn=check_delegate_requirements` at line {wire_line or 'unknown'}
- Confirmed reusable doctor surfaces already exist in `{relative_doctor}` at lines {override_line or 'unknown'} and {tool_availability_line or 'unknown'}
## Why this matters
Hermes still advertises delegation readiness as always available even though the weekly MVP factory now depends on delegation as a real execution layer.
## Evidence
### Current function docstring
> {docstring}
### Current function body
```python
{segment.strip()}
```
## Honest next move
Replace the stubbed readiness check with one real config-aware check, surface that state through a canonical doctor/readiness command, then prove one passing delegated run.

## What this proves
This verifier guards the external-wait loop breaker: when the upstream blocker packet is materially unchanged, rerunning the one-command refresh must not rewrite canonical `latest-*` artifacts or leave fresh timestamped component artifacts behind.
## Checks
- Refresh emitted `UPSTREAM_BLOCKER_PACKET_UNCHANGED`: `{unchanged_token}`
- Refresh emitted `UNCHANGED_PACKET_HYGIENE`: `{hygiene_token}`
- Canonical `latest-*` artifact hashes unchanged: `{latest_unchanged}`
- Timestamped artifact set unchanged: `{timestamped_unchanged}`
- Latest artifact count checked: `{len(after['latest_hashes'])}`
- Timestamped artifact count checked: `{len(after['timestamped_names'])}`
