Recovered Agents 🎉

• Smoke Codex: RECOVERED (run Add daily instructions janitor workflow to maintain github-agentic-workflows.instructions.md #2215, 2026-03-11) after ~14-day OpenAI cybersec restriction
  • Previously P1 failure since ~2026-02-25
  • Codex engine now operational again
• Duplicate Code Detector: RECOVERED (run MCP Network Permissions Test Results - Domain Restrictions Validation #230, 2026-03-11)
  • Tracking issues [aw] Smoke Codex failed #20285/[aw] Duplicate Code Detector failed #20304 can now be closed

Agents with Infrastructure Issues (Not Agent Quality) ⚠️

These failures are due to missing GH_AW_GITHUB_TOKEN, not agent code problems:

1. Issue Monster — 100% failure rate (lockdown token) — Tracking: [P1] Lockdown token failures: Issue Monster, PR Triage Agent, Daily Issues Report #20315
2. PR Triage Agent — 100% failure rate (lockdown token) — Tracking: [P1] Lockdown token failures: Issue Monster, PR Triage Agent, Daily Issues Report #20315
3. Daily Issues Report — 100% failure rate (lockdown token) — Tracking: [P1] Lockdown token failures: Issue Monster, PR Triage Agent, Daily Issues Report #20315
4. Org Health Report — 100% failure rate (lockdown token) — No dedicated tracking issue

All programmatic fix paths (#17414, #17807) remain closed as "not_planned". Manual admin intervention remains the only resolution path.

Agents with Active P2 Concerns

• Smoke Gemini: 100% schedule failure — add_comment context error — no tracking issue
• Smoke Update Cross-Repo PR: 100% failure — Tracking: [aw] Smoke Update Cross-Repo PR failed #20288
• Safe Output Health Monitor: 2 consecutive failures — Tracking: [aw] Safe Output Health Monitor failed #20305
• jsweep: Intermittent failures (~10%) — no tracking issue

Quality Analysis

Output Quality Distribution

Band	Score Range	Agent Count	Examples
Excellent	90-100	~8	Great Escapi, Safe Outputs Checker, Contribution Check, Smoke Claude/Copilot
Good	75-89	~12	Chronicle, PR Merged Report, Slide Deck, Container Smoke, Chroma Indexer
Fair	60-74	~4	Agents with intermittent issues (jsweep, etc.)
Needs Work	<60	4	Lockdown-affected (infrastructure, not quality)

Common Quality Observations

Positive patterns:

• Copilot agents maintaining structured, well-formatted output
• Safe output tool usage improving (fewer noops, more substantive outputs)
• Meta-orchestrator coordination working well (alerts shared via memory)

Concerns:

• Smoke Gemini add_comment context error suggests workflow trigger handling issue
• Safe Output Health Monitor self-monitoring failures need investigation
• jsweep intermittency (1/10 runs) could indicate flaky test or token rate limiting

Behavioral Patterns

Productive Patterns ✅

• Daily Narrative agents: Chronicle + PR Merged Report create complementary daily coverage
• Smoke test coordination: Multiple smoke tests (Copilot, Claude, Codex) provide layered validation
• Meta-orchestrator coordination: Performance Analyzer + Health Manager + Campaign Manager sharing memory effectively
• Token efficiency: The Great Escapi remains exemplary (~77K tokens for meaningful work)

Notable Observations ⚠️

• Chroma Issue Indexer consumes ~3.7M tokens per run — significantly higher than other agents. This is expected for semantic search indexing but warrants monitoring for cost efficiency.
• Firewall working correctly: Chroma had 1 outbound request to example.com:443 blocked — this confirms the network firewall is correctly enforcing domain restrictions.

---

Coverage Analysis

Well-Covered Areas

• PR quality review (Contribution Check, Nitpick Reviewer, Grumpy Reviewer)
• Daily reporting (Chronicle, PR Merged, Issues Report)
• Security and moderation (AI Moderator, Security Review Agent)
• Infrastructure validation (smoke tests across copilot, claude, codex engines)
• Semantic search (Chroma Issue Indexer)

Coverage Gaps / Recommendations

• Smoke Gemini recovery: Investigate and fix add_comment context error — restore Gemini engine coverage
• Org Health Report tracking: Create a dedicated tracking issue for the lockdown failure
• jsweep flakiness: Low priority but worth investigating to eliminate intermittent false negatives

---

Recommendations

High Priority

1. Resolve Org Health Report tracking — Create issue to track the lockdown-token failure (the other 3 affected workflows already have [P1] Lockdown token failures: Issue Monster, PR Triage Agent, Daily Issues Report #20315, confirm it covers this one too)
2. Smoke Gemini investigation — add_comment context error on schedule trigger suggests the workflow may lack a triggering issue/PR context; review the workflow's trigger configuration
3. Chroma Issue Indexer cost monitoring — At 3.7M tokens/run, establish a cost baseline and alert if consumption spikes significantly

Medium Priority

4. Safe Output Health Monitor — Two consecutive failures ([aw] Safe Output Health Monitor failed #20305) — verify it's not a systemic safe-output infrastructure issue
5. jsweep stabilization — Investigate 90% skip/1/10 failure pattern for root cause

Low Priority

6. Close resolved issues — [aw] Smoke Codex failed #20285 (Smoke Codex) and [aw] Duplicate Code Detector failed #20304 (Duplicate Code Detector) can be closed now that both have recovered
7. Update shared memory — Ensure alerts-coordination.md reflects Smoke Codex recovery

Trends

Metric	3/6	3/7	3/8	3/11	3/12	Trend
Agent Quality	84/100	84/100	84/100	84/100	85/100	↑
Agent Effectiveness	84/100	84/100	84/100	84/100	85/100	↑
Workflow Health	76/100	74/100	72/100	72/100	72/100	→ Stable
Outdated Lock Files	0	12	0	0	0	✅
P1 Failures	5	6	5	5	4	↓ (Codex recovered)
Healthy Workflows	161/165	154/166	158/166	158/166	162/166	↑

Key improvement this week: Smoke Codex and Duplicate Code Detector both recovered, reducing P1 failures from 6 to 4 and increasing healthy workflow count.
