Overview / Motivation
Auto-filed by /daily 2026-08-02 (route 2: behavior/logic change -> independent review) from the nightly problem sweep (miner5, session ed4cd9a6, task #1979).
Goal
A plan s10 workload command cannot carry a lane-specific bare env var that dies under another lane's set -u stage.
Workflow gap
- Bug observed: The #1979 f1g capture-leg launch attempt 1 died at spawn: the plan s10 command used the GCE-only bare
$WORKLOAD_ROOTon the fellows lane, whose custom stage runsset -u-> 'WORKLOAD_ROOT: unbound variable'; a full dispatch burned before a set-u-safe relaunch (session ed4cd9a6, 05:18:58Z log tail + 05:19:28Z marker; the session's own note named the missing bash -n + set-u expansion dry-run). - Why it is a workflow gap: The auto lane walks fellows FIRST, so a GCE-composed command routinely executes on SLURM; the env contract differs per lane and nothing lints s10 commands against it (c43 covers sentinel declarations, not env-var expansion).
- Confidence (emitter): medium (incident probed by miner: transcript rows; lint absence probed at compose time)
- verified-at-filing:
grep -c -iE 'WORKLOAD_ROOT|unbound|set -u' scripts/verify_plan.py-> 0 (no such check).
Proposed change (refine in planning)
add a verify_plan.py check flagging bare lane-specific env vars (e.g. {VAR:-}` form or an explicit lane pin.
Scope / surfaces
- Primary target:
scripts/verify_plan.py
Constraints / invariants
- Workflow-surface rules apply;
scripts/workflow_lint.py --check-askspasses; ruff on touched files passes. - This session runs under
EPM_WORKFLOW_FIX_SESSION=1(Provenanceworkflow_fix_target:line) -- it MUST NOT auto-route its own subagents' workflow-fix candidates (recursion guard).
