Overview / Motivation
Auto-filed by /daily 2026-07-30 Step C (parked workflow-fix-candidate routing) from a candidate parked on task #1818 (emitting agent: the #1818 wf-fix session, recursion-guarded; formal candidate block, parked 2026-07-30T11:17:10Z).
Goal
Wire a Monitor-until-loop quiet-wait branch into the /issue Step 6d.2 poll recipe so the anti-stall-§7 quiet cadence (1 orchestrator wake per ~1800s on healthy quiet stretches) is actually realized instead of clamped to consecutive 540s ticks.
Workflow gap
- Bug observed: #1818's clamp fixes the Step 6d.2 per-call sleep at 540s, so the anti-stall-§7 quiet-interval turn savings (1 orchestrator wake per 1800s on healthy quiet stretches) are now structurally unrealized; poll_pipeline.py's §7 comment block still reads as if the orchestrator honors the quiet interval as a longer sleep.
- Why it is a workflow gap: the quiet cadence was designed to cut ~330k-token orchestrator wakes on multi-hour healthy runs, but a single bg-Bash cannot sleep past the 600000 ms tool ceiling — the sanctioned long-wait shape (a Monitor until-loop, one notification per exit) was never wired into the poll loop.
- Confidence (emitter): medium
- verified-at-filing:
sed -n '4614,4638p' .claude/skills/issue/SKILL.md→ the clamp block ends with "§7's turn-savings intent is deferred until a Monitor-based quiet wait exists" (line ~4631, read 2026-07-31 filing time) — the deferral is still live, no Monitor quiet-wait branch is wired;sed -n '485,500p' scripts/poll_pipeline.py→ the "Adaptive bg-poll interval (anti-stall redesign §7)" comment block is present at ~L497 (1 hit in target file). Both targets confirmed as the sites carrying the gap.
Proposed change (candidate diff sketch — refine in planning)
Add a Monitor-until-loop quiet-wait branch to the Step 6d.2 recipe: when the previous tick recommended 1800 (POLL_INTERVAL_QUIET_SEC telemetry), run one elapsed-capped Monitor until-loop of ~1800s, then resume the normal 540s-bounded poll tick chain; update poll_pipeline.py's §7 comment block to describe the realized shape. unverified hypothesis — verify at plan time: the Monitor tool's until-loop is available to autonomous /issue sessions on every lane (the candidate assumes deferred-tool loading via ToolSearch works headless).
Scope / surfaces
- Primary target:
.claude/skills/issue/SKILL.md,scripts/poll_pipeline.py - Grep the workflow surface for
POLL_INTERVAL_QUIET_SECandnext_intervalbefore 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-askspasses; ruff on touched files passes.- Gates must never be delayed: the quiet wait may only fire on the healthy/quiet tick class §7 already restricts the 1800 recommendation to.
- This session runs under
EPM_WORKFLOW_FIX_SESSION=1and carries aworkflow_fix_target:Provenance line — it MUST NOT auto-route any of its own subagents' workflow-fix candidates (recursion guard).
