Adds a GitHub Actions-hosted software factory: agent loops that build maintainer-labeled issues end to end and review PRs. All state lives in GitHub (labels, comments, PRs); there is no server or webhook receiver. The bot never merges β€” every cycle ends in a review handoff, a suggestion, or a question.

What's included

  • .github/workflows/ci.yml β€” new CI workflow: typecheck, lint, test, build (+ check:exports) as parallel jobs on every pull request and on pushes to bot/** branches. Read-only permissions, no secrets referenced. This repo had no test CI before; it is useful on its own and it is the factory's verification step.
  • .factory/
    • FACTORY.md β€” this repo's contract: maintainer, gates, pointers to AGENTS.md / Architecture/ / FEATURES.md and the changeset release flow, and the npm-publish surfaces the bot must not touch. The gates are defined as the ci checks at the current head: the loops never execute repository code in their own job β€” they read, edit, commit, push, and read CI. Dependency changes are out of scope for the bot (it cannot regenerate the lockfile) and become a question to a human.
    • policy.md, builder.md, reviewer.md β€” operating policy and loop prompts
    • route.sh β€” per-run dispatcher: cheap pre-check, then one agent run
    • Dockerfile β€” run image: Node (for the CLI only), gh, Claude Code. Deliberately no pnpm/bun.
  • .github/workflows/
    • factory.yml β€” builder/reviewer jobs, triggered by issue/PR events and a 15-minute sweep
    • factory-image.yml β€” builds the run image to ghcr
    • factory-setup.yml β€” one-time labels and access check

Actions are pinned to commit SHAs, matching the other workflows in this repo.

Why the loops don't run tests themselves

The factory job holds credentials (a short-lived App token and an Anthropic key). Running pnpm install / pnpm test / pnpm build there would execute repository code next to those credentials. Instead, the credential-free ci workflow is the only place repository code runs, and the loops treat its checks as the verdict. Fork PRs already get no secrets from GitHub; this keeps the bot's own PRs on the same footing.

How it's used

label applied by meaning
bot:build maintainers build this issue
bot:idea maintainers shape a fuzzy idea into a build order in-thread; promote by swapping to bot:build
bot:review maintainers comment-only review passes on this PR; remove to stop
agent:in-progress / agent:needs-reply / needs:human loops lock / parked on a question / takeover needed
risk:low / ready:merge reviewer passed the gate; a human merges

Only users with write access can steer the loops; everyone else's issues and comments are treated as data, not instructions. Loops always read their prompts from the default branch, so changes to .factory/ take effect only by merge.

Rollout

Merging this is inert for the factory: until the repo secrets and the ghcr image exist, every factory run exits at a preflight check. Enabling it is a repo-settings step plus one manual run each of factory-image and factory-setup. The ci workflow is active immediately.

Verification

  • The gate chain is green on this branch (see the ci checks on this PR).
  • The run image builds locally.
  • route.sh dry-runs cleanly for both loops against this repo.

Add the GitHub Actions-hosted factory that builds maintainer-labeled
issues and reviews PRs. The bot never merges.

Review Change Stack

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added an automated factory environment for building and reviewing changes.
    • Added workflows for factory image publishing, setup checks, and event-driven builder/reviewer automation.
    • Added continuous integration checks for type checking, linting, tests, builds, and export validation.
    • Added documented operating policies covering issue intake, reviews, safety, testing, and manual merge handoffs.
    • Added a setup health check for required repository access and AI credentials.

Walkthrough

Adds a containerized factory environment with GitHub CLI and Claude Code. Defines repository policy, maintainer configuration, builder and reviewer contracts, escalation rules, and worktree discipline. Adds a Bash dispatcher for access checks, work detection, prompt assembly, and agent execution. Adds workflows for image publishing, setup validation, CI gates, and event- or schedule-driven builder and reviewer runs.

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 31323

This PR introduces credential-bearing automation and a new CI/runtime image, but the current head still allows repository-controlled commands to inherit tokens and retains several setup, authorization, readiness, and authentication failures that can expose credentials or leave the factory incorrectly operating. It is not merge-ready until these security and correctness issues are fixed.

In @.factory/Dockerfile:
- Line 7: Update the Dockerfile inputs to be reproducible: pin the Node 24
Bookworm Slim base image by digest, install an approved exact version of
`@anthropic-ai/claude-code` instead of an unversioned package, and replace the Bun

before extraction. Keep the selected versions explicit so they can be
deliberately updated during security rebuilds.

In @.factory/FACTORY.md:
- Around line 48-50: Update the validation command block in FACTORY.md to

work. Keep the existing steering_comment_waiting and comment-count checks
unchanged.
- Line 200: Update the gh pr list invocation in the Lane A pull-request

Fail the gate when installation fails.

Line 49 is not part of the && chain on Line 50. When an agent executes the block as one shell script without set -e, a failed installation does not stop the gate. A later successful command can make the overall block appear green.

Join the installation to the chain and specify the shell language.

GitHub REST API author_association MEMBER COLLABORATOR repository permission triage maintain write collaborator permission endpoint

πŸ’‘ Result:

The author_association field in the GitHub REST API provides information about a user's relationship with a repository [1][2]. It is commonly found in payloads related to issues, pull requests, and comments [1][3][4]. This field reflects the user's role relative to the repository, with possible values including COLLABORATOR, MEMBER, OWNER, CONTRIBUTOR, FIRST_TIMER, FIRST_TIME_CONTRIBUTOR, MANNEQUIN, and NONE [3][2]. Note that author_association represents the user's membership or relationship status, which may vary depending on authentication and organization privacy settings (e.g., a member might appear as a contributor if their organization membership is private) [5]. To specifically determine a user's repository permission level and role, use the Get repository permissions for a user endpoint [6][7]: GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/collaborators/{username}/permission This endpoint returns a response that includes the user's role_name (the specific role, including custom roles) and a permission attribute [6][7]. The permission attribute maps to legacy base roles (admin, write, read, none) where: - maintain is mapped to write [6][7] - triage is mapped to read [6][7] The response also provides a permissions object containing boolean flags for pull, triage, push, maintain, and admin access levels, reflecting the highest role assigned to the collaborator across all sources of grants [6][7].

Citations:


Check repository permission, not author association.

.github/workflows/factory.yml starts secret-backed work for label events without checking the label actor. .factory/route.sh accepts OWNER, MEMBER, and COLLABORATOR as write access for comments, although author_association describes repository relationship, not effective permission.

Require /repos/{owner}/{repo}/collaborators/{username}/permission to return write or admin before accepting labels or comments as instructions. Enforce this in both workflow paths or in .factory/route.sh.

GitHub CLI gh api endpoint placeholders {owner} {repo} expansion documentation

πŸ’‘ Result:

In the GitHub CLI (gh), the placeholder values {owner}, {repo}, and {branch} are automatically expanded when used in the endpoint argument or within the -F/--field flag [1][2]. When used in the endpoint argument, these placeholders are replaced with values derived from the repository of the current directory or the repository specified by the GH_REPO environment variable [1][3]. Similarly, when used with the -F/--field flag for request parameters, these placeholders are populated using the values from the current repository [1][2]. Important considerations for usage: - Shell Escaping: In certain shells, such as PowerShell, you must enclose values containing curly braces (e.g., '{owner}') in quotes to prevent the shell from misinterpreting them [1][4]. - GraphQL: When working with GraphQL, these placeholders are often passed as variables using the -F flag to allow them to be safely injected into your query [1][3]. Example of endpoint expansion: $ gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/releases Example of field expansion: $ gh api graphql -F owner='{owner}' -F name='{repo}' -f query='...' [1][2]

Citations:


Fix the malformed default in the gh api path.

Bash expands this expression to repos/acme/widgets/{repo}} when GITHUB_REPOSITORY is set and to repos/{owner/{repo}} when it is unset. These malformed endpoints can cause gh api to fail, and the error branch returns MISSING.

Use gh api "repos/{owner}/{repo}" so gh resolves the placeholders.

Fail open when the bot:idea lane cannot be enumerated.

The jq call is inside the here-string, so its failure is not checked. A gh or jq failure produces an empty list, the loop body never runs, and has_work returns 1. The run then exits as "no work". Every other failure path in this function returns 0 to fail open, as the header comment states.

gh pr list --author GitHub App bot app/ slug format

πŸ’‘ Result:

To filter pull requests authored by a GitHub App (such as Dependabot) using the GitHub CLI, you should use the --app flag instead of the --author flag [1][2][3]. The correct command format is: gh pr list --app For example, to list pull requests authored by Dependabot, use: gh pr list --app dependabot While the --author flag is used for human users, using it with a GitHub App name often results in an empty list because GitHub Apps require the app/ prefix internally [2][4]. The --app flag is specifically designed to handle this and expands the query to the correct author:app/ format automatically [2][4]. Using --app is the recommended and most discoverable way to filter by bot authors [4].

GitHub CLI gh pr list --author --app exact contract GitHub App bot login app-slug[bot] REST GraphQL author.login

πŸ’‘ Result:

To filter pull requests authored by a GitHub App using the GitHub CLI (gh), you should use the --app flag rather than the --author flag [1][2]. The --author flag is intended for user accounts and will typically return no results if used with a bot's login name [3]. The --app flag was specifically introduced to handle GitHub App authors and requires the app-slug (the name of the bot without the [bot] suffix) [1][4]. Correct syntax: gh pr list --app For example, to list pull requests authored by Dependabot: gh pr list --app dependabot If you prefer to use the --author flag, you must provide the app prefix as it appears in the author's login: gh pr list --author app/ For example: gh pr list --author app/dependabot The --app flag is the recommended and more discoverable method for filtering by GitHub App authors [3][4].

Citations:


Use --app for Lane A.

FACTORY_BOT_LOGIN is <app-slug>[bot], but gh pr list --author expects the app/<app-slug> search form for GitHub App authors. This can return no pull requests, so Lane A may never process the bot's ready pull requests. Use --app "${BOT_LOGIN%\[bot\]}". The .author.login and .user.login comparisons use the API login form and are not affected by this mismatch.

Claude Code CLI headless -p allowedTools permission mode flag documentation

πŸ’‘ Result:

In Claude Code, when running in headless (non-interactive) mode, you can control tool permissions using the --allowedTools and --permission-mode flags to ensure the agent executes autonomously without blocking on user prompts [1][2][3]. Permission Mode Flag (--permission-mode) The --permission-mode flag sets a session-wide policy for how Claude Code handles tool calls that are not pre-approved [4][3]. Accepted modes include [4][5][2]: - default: Prompts for permission on first use (Manual) [4][2]. - acceptEdits: Automatically approves file edits and common filesystem commands (e.g., mkdir, touch, mv, cp) [4][2]. - plan: Allows read-only operations and exploration; file edits are not permitted [4][2]. - auto: Uses a background classifier model to approve actions [4][2]. - dontAsk: Denies any tool not explicitly pre-approved by your settings or the --allowedTools flag [4][5]. This is the recommended mode for locked-down CI/CD environments [2][3]. - bypassPermissions: Skips all permission prompts, except for high-risk actions like root directory deletions [4][6][2]. Use only in isolated environments [6][3]. Allowed Tools Flag (--allowedTools) The --allowedTools (aliased as --allowed-tools) flag pre-approves specific tools or scoped patterns so they skip permission prompts [1][7]. - Usage: It accepts a list of tool names or scoped rules (e.g., --allowedTools "Read,Write,Bash(git diff *)") [1][7]. - Syntax: While documentation has historically shown inconsistent examples, using a single comma-separated string is the most reliable practice (e.g., --allowedTools "Bash(git status),Read") [8]. - Scoped Rules: You can use pattern matching for shell commands by including the command inside the tool's parentheses, such as Bash(git diff *) [9][1]. Note that the space before the wildcard is significant for proper prefix matching [1]. Best Practices for Headless Automation - For deterministic, locked-down CI runs, combine --permission-mode "dontAsk" with explicit --allowedTools definitions [5][2][3]. - To run fully unattended without interactive UI, add the -p (or --print) flag to your command [1]. - Avoid using --bypassPermissions or the alias --dangerously-skip-permissions unless the session is running within a sandboxed container or VM where the blast radius is strictly limited [6][2][3]. - You can inspect active permissions during a session using the /permissions command [4][7].

site:code.claude.com/docs Claude Code CLI --allowedTools --permission-mode dontAsk -p default permission prompts

πŸ’‘ Result:

In the Claude Code CLI, dontAsk is a permission mode designed for restricted environments, such as CI pipelines, where you want to automate operations without waiting for user input [1][2]. When this mode is active, Claude Code automatically denies any tool call that would otherwise trigger a permission prompt [1][3]. Key characteristics of the dontAsk mode include: Permission Handling: Claude Code will only execute actions that match your permissions.allow rules, read-only Bash commands, or actions approved by a PreToolUse hook [1][3]. Anything not explicitly pre-approved is denied without calling for user input [1][3]. Exceptions: Certain sensitive actions are always denied in dontAsk mode, even if they match an allow rule. This includes: - Tools that require user interaction (e.g., AskUserQuestion, MCP tools marked as requiresUserInteraction) [1][4][3]. - Connector tools your organization has set to ask [1][4][2]. - Specific filesystem removals like rm and rmdir targeting a critical path [3]. Usage: You can set this mode at startup using the --permission-mode flag [1][5]: claude --permission-mode dontAsk To combine this with pre-approved tools for a non-interactive session, you can use the --allowedTools flag along with the mode [1][3][2]: claude -p "run the test suite" --permission-mode dontAsk --allowedTools "Bash(npm test)" "Read" The dontAsk mode never appears in the CLI permission cycle (triggered by Shift+Tab), ensuring it is not accidentally activated [1]. Note that Claude Code on the web may ignore dontAsk settings in certain configurations [1].

site:code.claude.com/docs Claude Code command line reference allowedTools allowed-tools print mode

πŸ’‘ Result:

The Claude Code CLI provides several options related to allowed tools and print mode functionality. Allowed Tools The --allowedTools (or --allowed-tools) flag specifies tools that Claude Code may execute without prompting for user permission [1][2]. This flag utilizes permission rule syntax, which supports pattern matching [1][3]. For example, --allowedTools "Bash(git log *)" allows Claude Code to run any command starting with "git log" without asking for approval [1][3]. In interactive sessions, you can also manage these rules by running the /permissions command (or its alias, /allowed-tools) [4]. Print Mode Print mode is activated using the --print or -p flag, which allows you to receive a response without entering the full interactive terminal UI [5]. Several flags specifically configure the behavior of print mode: --output-format: Specifies the format of the output, such as text, json, or stream-json [5]. --input-format: Defines the input format for print mode (options include text and stream-json) [5]. --max-turns: Limits the number of agentic turns taken during the session [5]. --no-session-persistence: Prevents the session from being saved to disk or resumed [5]. --prompt-suggestions: When used with --print, --output-format stream-json, and --verbose, this emits predicted next user prompts after turns [5][6]. For programmatic use cases, such as in CI environments or headless scripts, you can combine these flagsβ€”for instance, by passing --allowedTools to pre-approve specific actions during a -p execution [3].

site:code.claude.com/docs/en/cli-reference "--allowedTools" comma separated

πŸ’‘ Result:

The --allowedTools parameter is a configuration flag primarily associated with Claude Code (a CLI tool for AI-assisted development) [1]. It is used to specify a list of tools that are permitted to execute automatically without requiring explicit user permission for each invocation [1]. When a tool is included in the --allowedTools list, the AI agent can run it according to the defined permission rules without interrupting the workflow for approval [1]. This is distinct from the --tools flag, which is used to restrict the overall set of tools available to the AI, and the --disallowedTools flag, which explicitly denies specific tools or specific tool actions [1]. Permission rule syntax is used with these flags to define granular control over which commands or functions an agent can perform [1].

πŸ’‘ Result:

There is no native command, utility, or shell built-in named "allowedTools" within the Bash shell itself [1]. The term "allowedTools" (or --allowedTools) refers to a configuration parameter used within Claude Code, an AI coding assistant, to manage permissions for Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools [1]. It is not a Bash command [1]. In the context of Claude Code, --allowedTools is a command-line flag or configuration setting used to specify which tools are permitted to run during a session [1]. It works in conjunction with security and permissions settings to restrict or enable specific operations performed by the AI agent [1]. If you encountered this term, it is likely in the context of configuring Claude Code rather than Bash scripting [1].

Tolerate a failed docker login in preflight.

The default shell for run on Linux is bash -e. If docker login returns non-zero, the step aborts before echo "ready=$ready". The preflight job then fails red, ready is never written, and both loops are skipped. That result contradicts the stated intent of skipping green until setup completes.

Handle the login failure and keep writing the output.

πŸ’‘ Result:

Yes, the official Node.js Docker image node:24-bookworm-slim includes both npm and Yarn (v1) by default [1][2]. In the official Node.js Docker images, the following behavior applies: - npm: It is bundled with all Node.js versions and is included in the node:24-bookworm-slim image [2][3]. - Yarn (v1 Classic): It is bundled in image variants for Node.js versions 25 and below [1][4]. Since node:24 falls into this category, Yarn is included [2][5][6]. Starting with Node.js 26.0.0, Yarn is no longer bundled in official Node.js Docker images [1][3]. If you require an image without these package managers to reduce image size, the recommended approach is to use a multi-stage Docker build, where you remove them in the final stage after the build process [7][4][3]. Detailed examples for this are available in the Node.js Docker best practices documentation [7][4].

Remove repository package managers from the runtime image.

node:24-bookworm-slim includes npm and Yarn, but this Dockerfile removes only pnpm and Bun. The factory jobs check out repository code and expose GH_TOKEN, ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, and CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN to commands in the container. A repository-controlled npm run or Yarn command can therefore inherit these credentials, violating the stated security boundary.

Use a builder stage for Claude Code and a runtime stage without npm and Yarn, or remove these executables after installation. Keep node, gh, and claude available.

GitHub Actions concurrency group expression github.head_ref pull request fork same branch cancel-in-progress official documentation

πŸ’‘ Result:

To effectively manage concurrency and cancel in-progress runs for pull requests (including those from forks), you should use the concurrency key at the top level of your workflow [1][2]. For pull requests, the github.head_ref property is the standard way to identify the source branch [3][4]. However, because github.head_ref is only defined for pull_request events, you must provide a fallback (such as github.run_id or github.ref) to avoid errors if your workflow also triggers on other events (like push) [3][5][4]. Recommended Concurrency Group Configuration To ensure consistent cancellation across both push and pull_request events for the same branch, a pattern using the workflow name and the branch name is highly effective [1][6]: concurrency: group: ${{ github.workflow }}-${{ github.head_ref || github.ref_name }} cancel-in-progress: true Key Considerations 1. Uniqueness: Concurrency group names are scoped to the repository [7]. If you have multiple workflows, including github.workflow in the group name prevents them from canceling each other [7]. 2. Forked Pull Requests: When using github.head_ref, GitHub Actions correctly identifies the source branch of a forked PR. By combining this with the workflow name, you can reliably cancel superseded runs on the same branch [1][6]. 3. Fallback Logic: The expression ${{ github.head_ref || github.ref_name }} effectively uses the source branch name for both PRs (where head_ref exists) and pushes (where ref_name is used), ensuring that a new commit on the same branch triggers the cancellation of any previous, incomplete runs [6]. 4. Official Documentation: GitHub officially recommends using a fallback value when using event-specific properties like github.head_ref to prevent syntax errors [3][2]. This approach allows you to achieve the desired "auto-cancel" behavior for redundant runs, similar to other CI systems, without needing custom actions [8][7].

Citations:


Scope concurrency by pull request.

When two fork pull requests use the same source branch name, github.head_ref produces the same concurrency group. Because cancel-in-progress: true, one pull request can cancel the other pull request's CI run. Use github.event.pull_request.number || github.ref for a pull-request-specific group.
