Overview / Motivation
Auto-filed by the /daily 2026-07-08 problem sweep (transcript-mined; emitting agent: /daily orchestrator).
Goal
Make the GCE workload push step retry-then-fail-loud instead of silently declaring results with an unpushed commit.
Workflow gap
- Bug observed: Transcript 313cb8c5 (issue-825 round 8) ~09:36-10:07Z: the workload's git push silently failed; commit 87c9c73168 with all 73 eval JSONs existed only on the GCP instance scheduled to self-power-off ~12:39Z with --instance-termination-action=DELETE; recovered via SSH git bundle + scp + --ff-only push.
- Why it is a workflow gap: Workload-side sibling of the piped-push masking class: the push step neither retried nor failed loud, and the run declared success with the git leg unpushed — permanent loss absent the verifier catch.
- Confidence (emitter): medium
Proposed change (candidate diff sketch — refine in planning)
In the GCE workload composer push step: after push, git rev-list origin/<branch>..HEAD --count must be 0; retry push once on failure; non-zero after retry => fail the workload loud (crash-persist lane then preserves logs). Mirror the contract line in pod-side-reporting.md.
Scope / surfaces
- Primary target:
src/explore_persona_space/backends/gcp.py, .claude/rules/pod-side-reporting.md - Grep the workflow surface for the pattern before editing and update every hit; list them in the plan.
Constraints / invariants
- Workflow-surface only — never experiment code,
configs/, ortasks/. scripts/workflow_lint.py --check-asks+--check-referencespass; ruff on touched files passes.- This session runs under
EPM_WORKFLOW_FIX_SESSION=1and carries aworkflow_fix_target:Provenance line — it MUST NOT auto-route its own subagents' workflow-fix candidates (recursion guard).
Provenance
