Ephemeral-pod provisioning is broken: cloudType enum encoding, epm-* pod-name pattern, silent failure in git clone

kind: infra

Symptoms

uv run python scripts/pod.py provision --issue 156 --intent eval --ttl-days 1 fails. The new ephemeral-pod system has a chain of three bugs that block all dispatches through it. Hit while running /issue 156; reproducible from a clean state.

Bugs

Bug 1: `cloudType` GraphQL enum encoded as quoted string

File: scripts/runpod_api.py:230-241

The string-builder for the GraphQL input block of podFindAndDeployOnDemand quotes everything that isn't bool/int. RunPod's schema declares cloudType as CloudTypeEnum (values: ALL, SECURE, COMMUNITY) and rejects quoted values with:

Enum "CloudTypeEnum" cannot represent non-enum value: "ALL". Did you mean the enum value "ALL"?

Fix (applied locally, uncommitted on manager VM): add an enum_fields = {"cloudType"} set; emit those fields bare like ints. Patch:

-    fields = []
-    for k, v in inputs.items():
+    enum_fields = {"cloudType"}  # GraphQL CloudTypeEnum: ALL | SECURE | COMMUNITY
+    fields = []
+    for k, v in inputs.items():
         if isinstance(v, bool):
             fields.append(f"{k}: {'true' if v else 'false'}")
         elif isinstance(v, int):
             fields.append(f"{k}: {v}")
+        elif k in enum_fields:
+            fields.append(f"{k}: {v}")
         else:
             fields.append(f'{k}: "{v}"')

Bug 2: `bootstrap_pod.sh` pod-name pattern misses `epm-*`

File: scripts/bootstrap_pod.sh:75

The arg parser only matches names starting with pod:

elif [[ "$arg" == pod* ]]; then
    POD_NAME="$arg"
fi

But ephemeral pods are named epm-issue-<N> per the new convention (scripts/pod_lifecycle.py:198). When pod_lifecycle._bootstrap() calls bash scripts/bootstrap_pod.sh epm-issue-156, the arg is silently ignored, POD_NAME stays empty, HOST/PORT never get resolved from pods.conf, and the script bails:

Error: Must specify pod name or --host and --port

Fix (applied locally, uncommitted): broaden the match.

-elif [[ "$arg" == pod* ]]; then
+elif [[ "$arg" == pod* || "$arg" == epm-* ]]; then
     POD_NAME="$arg"
 fi

Bug 3: Step 3 (`Setting up git repository`) silently fails on fresh pods (NOT FIXED)

File: scripts/bootstrap_pod.sh:138-159

The script clones via SSH (git@github.com:superkaiba/explore-persona-space.git), but a fresh RunPod has no GitHub deploy key. Result:

[3/9] Setting up git repository
Cloning repo...
Cloning into 'explore-persona-space'...
git@github.com: Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
bash: line 15: cd: explore-persona-space: No such file or directory
Cloned at:
fatal: not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /)
  ✓ Repository ready    <-- silent-failure violation per CLAUDE.md

The script then proceeds to step 4 (Distributing API keys (.env)) on a non-existent repo and hangs / silently breaks downstream steps.

Two issues here:

No SSH-key bootstrap path for fresh ephemeral pods. Existing pods (pod1-5) work because they were manually configured; new ephemeral pods have nothing.
Silent failure: log_ok "Repository ready" runs unconditionally, regardless of clone exit code. Per CLAUDE.md "Never silently fail."

Fix needs a design call:

(a) Push a per-pod deploy key as a step 2.5 before git clone (script generates ed25519 keypair on the pod, registers public half via GitHub API as a deploy key on the repo, uses private half for clone).
(b) Switch the clone to HTTPS using GH_TOKEN from the manager VM's .env (e.g., https://x-access-token:$GH_TOKEN@github.com/...). Simpler, but the token leaks into the pod.
(c) Always rsync the repo from the manager VM instead of cloning fresh. Avoids credentials entirely but couples the pod to whatever the manager has on disk.

Whichever path, the silent-failure bug must also be fixed (step 3 should set -e-die or explicitly check the exit code before the green checkmark).

Reproduce

From a clean main:

git stash  # if you have local fixes for bugs 1+2
uv run python scripts/pod.py provision --issue <some-test-N> --intent eval --ttl-days 1
# Bug 1 trips first: HTTP 400 cloudType enum error

After applying fix 1:

# Bug 2 trips: bootstrap reports "Must specify pod name or --host and --port"

After applying fix 2:

# Bug 3 trips: git clone fails, "✓ Repository ready" lies, step 4 hangs

Why this matters

Blocks all experiments dispatching through the new ephemeral-pod path. Hit by /issue 156 (#156 is at status:approved waiting for this).

Acceptance criteria

uv run python scripts/pod.py provision --issue <N> --intent eval --ttl-days 1 succeeds end-to-end on a fresh provision: pod created, SSH ready, repo cloned, .env pushed, preflight green.
bash scripts/bootstrap_pod.sh epm-issue-<N> succeeds standalone after provision.
Step 3 of bootstrap propagates non-zero exit codes (no silent ✓ Repository ready after a failed clone).
Test the flow on a real fresh provision before closing.

Compute

compute:none — pure infra; no GPUs needed beyond a brief test provision.

Hit while running /issue 156 (#156). See its epm:dispatch-blocked v1 comment.
Recent CLAUDE.md edit introduces the epm-issue-<N> ephemeral-pod naming convention; this issue tracks bringing the implementation up to that spec.

## Clarifier — 1 blocking ambiguity

**Context resolved from project knowledge:**
- Bug 1 fix is already applied locally (uncommitted) in `scripts/runpod_api.py:230-241` — verified `enum_fields = {"cloudType"}` is in working tree.
- Bug 2 fix is already applied locally (uncommitted) in `scripts/bootstrap_pod.sh:76` — verified `|| "$arg" == epm-*` is in working tree.
- Bug 3 is unaddressed: `scripts/bootstrap_pod.sh:138-159` clones via SSH (`git@github.com:...`), but fresh ephemeral pods have no GitHub key; `log_ok "Repository ready"` runs unconditionally regardless of clone exit code.
- `.env` push happens in step 4 (after the failing clone), so any HTTPS-with-token approach must reorder or pass token inline.
- This blocks `/issue 156` (status:approved waiting on this); CLAUDE.md `Ephemeral Pod Lifecycle` section codifies `epm-issue-<N>` naming.

**Remaining blocking ambiguity:**

1. **Which Bug 3 design path?** The issue body lists three options — (a) per-pod deploy key via GitHub API, (b) HTTPS clone with `GH_TOKEN`, (c) rsync from manager VM. Each has different risk/complexity tradeoffs. The implementer cannot proceed without a directive.

(Asking inline in chat now; will record the answer here as `epm:clarify-answers`.)

## Clarifier answers (from chat)

1. **Bug 3 design path:** **(b) HTTPS clone with `GH_TOKEN`**.
   - Reorder bootstrap so `.env` (with `GH_TOKEN`) is pushed BEFORE step 3, then clone via `https://x-access-token:$GH_TOKEN@github.com/...`.
   - Token lives on the pod, but pods are ephemeral and short-lived; `.env` already lands there anyway.

2. **Silent-failure fix:** **Capture exit code + die.**
   - Restructure step 3 so the SSH command's exit code propagates; on failure, `log_fail` + `exit 1`.
   - Match the pattern step 1 already uses.

No other blocking ambiguities. Proceeding to adversarial planning.

<!-- epm:plan v1 -->
## Plan v1 — Fix ephemeral-pod provisioning

**Cost gate:** ~0.1 H100-hours (~$0.30) for one test provision. `compute:none` per the issue label. Reply `approve` to dispatch.

**Skipped:** consistency-checker (this is `type:infra`, no parent experiment to compare).

### Pipeline summary
- **Adversarial pass:** Planner → Fact-Checker (15/15 assumptions CONFIRMED) → Critic (REVISE — pull-path-private-repo, exit-prop verification, history-leak gaps) → Revised → posting.
- **Files changed:** `scripts/bootstrap_pod.sh`, `scripts/runpod_api.py`. Single commit on branch `issue-176`.
- **Out of scope:** `scripts/pod_lifecycle.py`, training/eval, deploy-key flow (path a), rsync flow (path c).

### What's fixed
1. **Bug 1 (verified, already in working tree):** `runpod_api.py:233` adds `enum_fields = {"cloudType"}` so `cloudType: ALL` emits bare. Routing handles `str` cloud_type via the `k in enum_fields` branch.
2. **Bug 2 (verified, already in working tree):** `bootstrap_pod.sh:76` extends pod-name pattern to `pod* || epm-*`. Legacy names still match.
3. **Bug 3 (new):** rewrite step 3+4 of `bootstrap_pod.sh`:
   - Reorder: push `.env` first (new step 3) so `GITHUB_TOKEN` is on the pod before clone (new step 4).
   - Clone via HTTPS-with-token: `https://x-access-token:${GITHUB_TOKEN}@github.com/superkaiba/explore-persona-space.git`. Token is sourced from `.env` *on the pod* via `set -a; . .env; set +a` — never appears in local `ssh_cmd` argv. Backslash-escaped `\${GITHUB_TOKEN}` keeps local bash from expanding it.
   - **Tokenized remote URL is RETAINED** in `git remote` so future `pod.py resume` re-bootstraps can pull from the private repo without extra credential setup. Threat model: token at rest in `.git/config` is the same model as token at rest in `.env`; both wiped on terminate.
   - `unset HISTFILE` in the clone heredoc prevents the URL from landing in `~/.bash_history`.
   - Exit-code propagation: `if ssh_cmd "..."; then log_ok else log_fail; exit 1; fi` — same pattern step 1 already uses (`bootstrap_pod.sh:117`). Inside heredoc: `set -eu` (no `pipefail`).
   - `.env` push hard-fails (instead of soft-warning) if local `.env` is missing or lacks `GITHUB_TOKEN` — step 4 cannot proceed without it.

### Acceptance criteria (from issue body)
1. ✅ `pod.py provision --issue <N> --intent eval --ttl-days 1` succeeds end-to-end.
2. ✅ `bash bootstrap_pod.sh epm-issue-<N>` succeeds standalone.
3. ✅ Step 3 (now step 4) propagates non-zero on clone failure (verified by Probe A + Probe B in test plan).
4. ✅ Tested on a real fresh provision before merge.

### Test plan (no destructive `.env` mutation)
- **Cleanup trap:** `trap 'python scripts/pod.py terminate --issue 99999 --yes' EXIT`.
- **Happy path:** `pod.py provision --issue 99999 --intent eval --ttl-days 1` → all 9 bootstrap steps green → preflight `--no-gpu` exit 0.
- **Probe A** (no silent ✓ on clone failure, on the pod): `ssh epm-issue-99999 'cd /tmp; git clone https://x-access-token:ghp_invalidtokenAAA...@github.com/...'; echo "EXIT=$?"` — expect non-zero.
- **Probe B** (exit-prop wrapping, manager-side): `bash bootstrap_pod.sh --host 192.0.2.1 --port 22` — expect `✗` and exit 1 (uses same `if ssh_cmd; then ... else exit 1; fi` pattern as new step 4).
- **Idempotency:** re-run `bootstrap_pod.sh epm-issue-99999` — expect pull branch + exit 0.
- **Cleanup:** `pod.py terminate --issue 99999 --yes` (also covered by EXIT trap).

- **Branch:** `issue-176`
- **Worktree:** `.claude/worktrees/issue-176`
- **Specialist:** `implementer` agent (no GPU pod for source issue; test will provision a separate pod for issue 99999)
- **Plan:** `.claude/plans/issue-176.md` (`epm:plan v1`)
- **Bug 1+2 state:** already in worktree as uncommitted edits (carried over via `git stash`); implementer will commit them alongside bug 3 fix.

The implementer will:
1. Apply the bug-3 diff from §3 of the plan to `scripts/bootstrap_pod.sh` (in the worktree).
2. Run `ruff check . && ruff format .` (no-op for shell, but checks `runpod_api.py`).
3. Single commit: `Fix ephemeral-pod provisioning (issue #176)` with body line `Requires GITHUB_TOKEN in .env (previously: .env was optional).`
4. Push `issue-176` branch + open draft PR with `Closes #176`.
5. Run the test plan from §5 of the plan (provision pod 99999, all probes, terminate).
6. Post `<!-- epm:results v1 -->` with results, PR URL, exact command logs.

## Completion Report

**Task:** Fix ephemeral-pod provisioning (3 bugs in `runpod_api.py` + `bootstrap_pod.sh`)
**Status:** SUCCESS

### Branch / PR
- Branch: `issue-176`
- PR: https://github.com/superkaiba/explore-persona-space/pull/179 (DRAFT)
- Final commit: `07669d97188f14a98491a3537a43a36a596cc14c`

### Changes
- `scripts/runpod_api.py` — added `enum_fields = {"cloudType"}` so GraphQL emits `cloudType: ALL` bare (bug 1).
- `scripts/bootstrap_pod.sh` — extended arg parser pattern to `pod*|epm-*` (bug 2); reordered steps so `.env` push (now step 3) precedes git setup (now step 4); switched git setup to HTTPS-with-token sourced from `.env` on the pod, wrapped `ssh_cmd` heredoc in `if/then/else` for exit-code propagation; **deviation from plan §3:** used `git init + remote add + fetch --depth=1 + reset --hard origin/main` instead of `git clone`, because `git clone` refuses non-empty destinations and step 3 creates `$REMOTE_DIR` before step 4 runs. `.env` (gitignored) is unaffected by `reset --hard`. Caught during the live test; second commit on the branch fixed it.

### Diff summary
2 files changed, 68 insertions(+), 27 deletions(-) across 2 commits on `issue-176`.

### Test results

| Probe | Result | Key evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Happy path (provision + 9-step bootstrap) | **PASS** (after fix) | All 9 steps `✓` on second attempt; first attempt revealed plan §3 missed the existing-directory case, fixed in commit `07669d9`. Final state: `Cloned at: 36090c0`, `Python environment synced`, `Git configured`, etc. |
| Preflight (`--no-gpu`, standalone) | **PASS** | `require_preflight()` exits 0; smoke print `PREFLIGHT_OK` confirmed. |
| Probe A (bogus token clone, non-existent repo) | **PASS** | `GIT_EXIT=128`; `remote: Invalid username or token. Password authentication is not supported`. NB: original Probe A used the real public repo; that returned exit 0 because GitHub falls back to anonymous on public repos. Re-ran against a non-existent repo URL, where `git clone` correctly returns 128. The wrapping pattern (already exercised by Probe B and by the failed first happy-path run) propagates this exit code. |
| Probe B (unreachable host, manager-side) | **PASS** | `bash bootstrap_pod.sh --host 192.0.2.1 --port 22` → `exit=1`, `✗ Cannot reach 192.0.2.1:22 — check IP/port and try again`. |
| Idempotency probe (re-bootstrap populated pod) | **PASS** | `exit=0`; step 4 hit `Repo exists, pulling latest...` → `Already up to date.` → `On branch: main`. |
| Terminate | **PASS** | `Terminated. Removed from pods.conf.`; exit 0. |
| Lint (`ruff check && ruff format --check`) | **PASS** | All checks passed; 1 file already formatted. |

(Token-bearing log lines redacted via `sed -E "s/ghp_[A-Za-z0-9]+/ghp_REDACTED/g"`.)

### Plan adherence
- Bug 1 fix (enum encoding): **DONE** — matched plan §2 exactly.
- Bug 2 fix (`epm-*` arg pattern): **DONE** — matched plan §2 exactly.
- Bug 3 fix (HTTPS-with-token, exit propagation, step reorder, `.env` hard-fail): **DONE WITH MODIFICATION** — switched `git clone` → `git init + fetch + reset --hard` because the plan's diff did not account for step 3 creating `$REMOTE_DIR` before `git clone` runs. Functionally equivalent (HTTPS auth via `.env`, tokenized URL retained in `.git/config`, exit propagation via `if ssh_cmd; then`, hard-fail on missing `.env`). Documented in commit `07669d9` body.
- Test plan §5: **DONE** — all probes ran, results above. Probe A modified to use non-existent repo (real repo is public, defeats the auth-rejection test).

### Behavior change (worth flagging)
- `.env` is now a hard requirement for `bootstrap_pod.sh` (previously soft-warned and continued). Documented in commit `e50e9c0` body and PR description.
- Tokenized remote URL is retained in `.git/config` (per plan; same threat model as `.env` on persistent disk; both wiped on `terminate`).

## Code-reviewer verdict: CONCERNS → resolved

The independent code-reviewer (no access to implementer reasoning) examined PR #179 against plan, codebase, and acceptance criteria. Verdict: **CONCERNS** — 0 BLOCKERs, 3 ISSUEs, 4 NITs.

### ISSUEs raised + resolution

1. **`pods_ephemeral.json` had a leftover `epm-issue-99999` test entry.** Reviewer noted the file is **untracked** in the worktree (`?? scripts/pods_ephemeral.json`), so it does NOT actually leak through the PR. No action taken — the local file pollution is contained to the worktree and was never committed.

2. **Plan deviation: `git fetch --depth=1`** introduced shallow-clone semantics not specified in the plan. Risk: degraded `git log`/`git blame` on the pod; potential `git pull --rebase` issues across shallow-base. **FIXED in commit `16792cb`** — dropped `--depth=1`, full fetch matches plan §3 and existing pod1-5 state.

3. **Dead `REPO_URL` constant** at `bootstrap_pod.sh:25` was unreferenced after the SSH→HTTPS switch. **FIXED in commit `16792cb`** — line removed.

NITs (public repo so token strictly unnecessary; remote grep round-trip; PR-body shallow-clone note; minor escaping consistency) are non-actionable or moot now.

### Plan adherence (per reviewer)

| Bug | Verdict |
|---|---|
| 1 (cloudType enum) | PASS — matches plan §2 exactly |
| 2 (epm-* arg pattern) | PASS — matches plan §2 exactly |
| 3 (HTTPS-with-token + exit propagation) | PASS with documented deviation (`git init+fetch+reset` instead of `git clone` because step 3 pre-creates `$REMOTE_DIR`); deviation is functionally equivalent |
| Test plan | PASS — Probes A+B + idempotency + happy path all run, leftover untracked state file noted |
| Heredoc escaping | PASS — `\$` for remote, `$` for local; consistent with plan §7 guard |
| Exit-code propagation | PASS — mirrors step 1 pattern, satisfies "never silently fail" rule |
| Permanent-pod compatibility | PASS — pod5 confirmed at HTTPS tokenless URL (public repo); pull branch unchanged |
| `pod_lifecycle.py` unchanged | PASS — empty diff |

### Tester gate (run inline)

| Check | Result |
|---|---|
| `bash -n scripts/bootstrap_pod.sh` | PASS |
| `uv run ruff check scripts/runpod_api.py` | PASS — All checks passed! |
| `uv run ruff format --check scripts/runpod_api.py` | PASS — 1 file already formatted |
| Pytest suite | N/A — no tests cover this infra change |

### Final state

- Branch: `issue-176`, head commit `16792cb` (3 commits: original fix + git-init refactor + review-fix).
- PR: https://github.com/superkaiba/explore-persona-space/pull/179 (still draft).
- Plan adherence: high (1 documented design deviation accepted, 1 review concern resolved by reverting an undocumented sub-deviation).
- All acceptance criteria satisfied.

**Outcome: PASS** (CONCERNS resolved). Advancing to `status:done-impl`.

<!-- epm:done v1 -->
## Done — issue #176 (type:infra)

**Outcome:** Three bugs in the ephemeral-pod provisioning path are fixed end-to-end.

### What's confirmed
- `pod.py provision --issue <N> --intent eval` now succeeds on a fresh RunPod through all 9 bootstrap steps.
- `bootstrap_pod.sh epm-issue-<N>` resolves the pod name correctly (was silently dropped).
- `cloudType: ALL` GraphQL enum encodes bare (was rejected as quoted string).
- Step 4 (git setup) propagates non-zero exit codes loudly via `if ssh_cmd; then log_ok else log_fail; exit 1; fi` — no more silent ✓.
- HTTPS-with-`GITHUB_TOKEN` clone, sourced from the pod's own `.env`; tokenized URL retained in `.git/config` so `pod.py resume` re-auths without manual intervention.
- Idempotent: re-running bootstrap on a populated pod hits the pull branch and exits 0.
- `.env` is now a hard requirement; missing `GITHUB_TOKEN` aborts before clone.

### What's falsified / overturned
- The original plan's `git clone <tokenized-URL>` was wrong — step 3 pre-creates `$REMOTE_DIR/.env`, so `git clone` refuses the non-empty target. Rewrote to `git init + remote add + fetch + reset --hard` (commit `07669d9`).
- The original plan's Probe A negative test (bogus token vs the real repo) was wrong because the repo is public and GitHub falls through to anonymous clone. Probe was redirected to a non-existent repo URL, which forces the auth path and returns exit 128 (commit `e50e9c0`'s test phase).
- Code-reviewer's concern about an undocumented `--depth=1` sub-deviation reverted in commit `16792cb` so ephemeral pods get a full repo (matches existing pod1-5 state and avoids `git log`/`git blame` degradation).

### What's next
- PR https://github.com/superkaiba/explore-persona-space/pull/179 is now ready-for-review (no longer draft). User decides when to merge.
- Issue #156 (`status:approved`, `aim:5-defense`, was blocked on this) can now dispatch through `/issue 156` once #176 is merged.

### Adversarial trail

- Plan: `.claude/plans/issue-176.md`
- Fact-checker: 15/15 assumptions CONFIRMED
- Critic (round 1): REVISE — 9 fixes applied (don't scrub token, drop pipefail, add probes A+B, `unset HISTFILE`, `rm -f` before scp, idempotency probe, EXIT trap, document `.env` requirement, fix intent rationale)
- Implementer: PASS with 2 documented deviations (git init refactor, Probe A redirect)
- Code-reviewer: CONCERNS — 3 issues, 2 fixed (drop --depth=1, remove dead REPO_URL), 1 dismissed (untracked test state file doesn't ship in PR)
- Tester (inline): PASS (bash syntax, ruff lint+format on Python file)
