The IM renderers cut the summary of a single push at 120 characters and
listed at most 3 assets, as fixed constants. Both are now global settings
in the settings table, read by the delivery engine when it renders:
notify_summary_max_runes 0-4000, default 120
notify_assets_max_shown 0-50, default 3
0 means no truncation and an unset key keeps 120 / 3. PUT /api/settings
answers 400 for a value outside the bounds. The limits travel on
notify.Message, so the notify package still does not touch the database.
With no truncation, nothing bounded a single item in a Feishu card, and
Feishu rejects an oversized request as a whole. feishuCard now truncates
an item's text as the final backstop, the role TruncateBytes plays in
markdownBody for DingTalk and WeCom. feishuMaxCardBytes goes from 24000
to 16000: Feishu custom bots cap the request body at 20 KB, which the old
value exceeded.
Refs #168.
A response captured with Content-Encoding: gzip and no body (HEAD, 304) is
decoded to an empty body without error. Pin that behaviour, and pin that an
empty body, compressed or not, matches no non-empty quote through
readBoundResponse and quoteInBodies, so it can never lead to a verified
finding.
Compressed HTML responses are stored as captured, so the S1 receipt check saw them as binary and returned not_assessed. readBoundResponse now undoes the Content-Encoding declared in the snapshot's response head before the text/binary detection and the quote search.
decodeEvidenceBody handles identity and a single layer of gzip or deflate (zlib-wrapped or bare), bounded by verificationReadCap on the decoded side. Any other coding, stacked codings, or a stream that fails to decode is an error, which the caller reports as not_assessed (evidence body unreadable). The stored evidence bytes are unchanged.
The previous commit stops list_task_credentials from building its schema
with obj(map[string]any{}, ""). Two gaps remained:
- obj still emitted whatever it was given, so the same typo on another tool
would again produce "required": [""]. obj now drops names that are blank
after strings.TrimSpace and omits the "required" key when nothing is left.
- Tool schemas are cached in the tools table and SeedTool is insert-only, so
the code fix only reached fresh installs. Existing databases kept the
malformed row and strict providers kept rejecting every worker run.
healListTaskCredentialsSchema runs at startup next to the other tool
seeds and removes the "required" key from that one row, only when it is
exactly [""]:
UPDATE tools SET schema = schema - 'required', updated_at=now()
WHERE key='list_task_credentials' AND schema->'required' = '[""]'::jsonb
It is idempotent (a healed row no longer matches), needs no settings flag,
and leaves the description, bindings, enabled flag and every other tool
untouched. tool_schema_refresh_v7 is not bumped.
Tests: TestObjDropsBlankRequired and
TestListTaskCredentialsSchemaHasNoBlankRequired (agent),
TestHealListTaskCredentialsSchema (server, Postgres).
The approval list and detail return decided_by exactly as stored, and the
decided_by filter matches that same value. Rows decided before the column
existed show "Legacy" and match no decided_by filter; their decision_source
stays in its own column and nothing is rewritten.
UI: a "Decided by" column (Human, Rule, Model, System) and a matching filter
beside the decision-source filter, including "AI-approved only" for model.
Types and the API query carry decided_by the same way decision_source does.
Add intercept_pending.decided_by (human | rule | model | system; empty while
pending or for rows decided before the column existed). Approval semantics are
unchanged: only the actor is recorded.
- rule-matched and model-judged rows written by CreateDecidedIntercept record
rule or model;
- ResolveIntercept takes the actor explicitly and rejects any other value
before touching the database;
- Decide (human allow/deny) records human; timeouts and work-cancelled
denials record system. Work-cancelled is a system refusal, not a human one.
- decided_by is exposed on the pending and approval records and filterable
with decided_by=human|rule|model|system (anything else is a 400).
- Legacy rows show decision_source as their actor when decided_by is empty.
The filter uses the stored column only, so decided_by=model cannot match
older human decisions or timeouts.
- Archive restore fills decided_by for archives that predate the column, and
marks a restored pending row as system.
Show the automated verification outcome next to the human triage status:
a badge on the findings list and detail page ("Verified L3", "Unverified",
"Blocked", "Not assessed", "False positive"), a verification-state filter
next to the status filter (persisted with the other list preferences), and
the verification note on the detail page when the state is not verified.
API: the findings list, groups, asset tree and export accept a
verification_status filter. Without it nothing changes.
Not included: a verified count in the statistics.
The quote x7 is now rejected as too short before the store is read, so the
test never reached the not_assessed path. Use a quote long enough to pass
the minimum; the store removal is unchanged.
A two-character quote such as "x7" can exist in any body and proves
nothing. Normalized quotes under 8 runes are now ignored; if none remain
the finding is unverified with the note "evidence quote too short".
Check order is unchanged: binding, POE, quote presence, then body.
Add a machine-checked verification state to findings, separate from the
human disposition (status). A finding is verified only when a proof or
verification traffic body is bound, the agent declares POE L3 or higher,
and every evidence quote appears verbatim, after whitespace
normalization, in one of those response bodies.
- schema: poe_level, verification_status, verification_note on findings
(idempotent ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS, no CHECK, no backfill).
- db: SetFindingVerification validates status and POE 0-4; the three
fields are scanned with the finding rows and exposed in the DTO.
- update_finding_report: optional poe_level and evidence_quotes. The
report is always saved; verification only decides the status. Read
failures give not_assessed, never unverified.
- report agent guidance: declare POE and exact quotes from the bound body.
Not in this change: UI badges and filters, the blocked and false_positive
transitions, and the stored default report prompt for existing databases
(the guidance is appended at run time).
Since e233c02 the judge writer prefixes its reason with "[model]" while
interceptSource, the approvalDecisionSource SQL fallback and the archive
restore checked "[Model]", so model-decided rows were inserted with
decision_source='unknown' and missed by the decision_source=model filter.
- db: add ModelReasonPrefix ("[model]") and isModelReason, which also
accepts the pre-e233c02 "[模型]" prefix; readers compare
case-insensitively (lower(reason) LIKE in SQL).
- intercept: the writer builds its reason through JudgeReason, using the
shared constant.
- schema.sql: idempotent backfill of 'unknown' rows without a rule whose
reason carries either prefix.
- tests: un-skip TestInterceptFilterHTTP (it failed only because of
this), make the db filter fixture use the constant, and add a
Postgres-free test pinning the writer output to interceptSource.
Fixes#156
testLLM set cfg.UserAgent from the request (or the stored-profile
fallback) with no validation, while pgSaveProfile runs
agent.ValidateUserAgent and returns 400 on a bad value. A UA with a
control character could therefore reach the wire from the test button
though it is rejected on save. Call ValidateUserAgent on the final value
(after the stored fallback) and return 400 with the same message style,
mirroring pgSaveProfile; the fallback itself is unchanged.
ValidateUserAgent rejects every control character (r < 0x20 or r ==
0x7f), TAB included, so the header value stays a single printable token.
Extend the agent tests to cover NUL, US, DEL and TAB, and that a
printable slash-token value with spaces survives trimming unchanged. Add
a Postgres-free server test driving testLLM through an httptest endpoint:
a control-character UA is a 400 before any request leaves, a printable UA
reaches the wire verbatim.
Add an optional per-profile User-Agent that overrides the header on every
outbound LLM request. When empty (the default), the existing behaviour is
unchanged and the default User-Agent is left untouched.
The value is trimmed and validated: control characters / newlines (header
injection) and values longer than 256 bytes are rejected. Wired through the
profile config struct, the Postgres llm_profiles schema, the profile API/DTO,
the connection-test path, and the LLM profile form, following the existing
session-header field. Addresses part of #154; the fixed-full-URL mode is not
included.
- ARTEX_TRUSTED_PROXIES (comma-separated CIDRs, empty by default). When
the TCP peer is listed, the login limit reads X-Forwarded-For from the
right and keys on the first hop that is not a trusted proxy; otherwise
the header is ignored. Without it every client behind a reverse proxy
shares one bucket and an attacker can block the admin. Passed through
by docker-compose.yml and listed in .env.example.
- README: nginx example sends X-Forwarded-For; document the variable;
the binary's default listen address is 127.0.0.1:8787.
- reset-password.sh refuses passwords under 12 characters, counted in
characters like the server.
- POST /api/auth/login: 10 attempts per minute per TCP peer IP
(X-Forwarded-For ignored), then 429 with Retry-After. The block starts
at 1 minute and doubles on each attempt while blocked and on each new
block, capped at 15 minutes. A successful login clears the IP. No
per-account lockout. In-memory, idle entries swept after 15 minutes,
at most 10,000 IPs.
- New passwords (init, change-password, /setup page) need 12 characters.
Login does not check length, so existing 8-character passwords work.
- The binary's -addr default is 127.0.0.1:8787. The Docker image passes
-addr :8787 explicitly and is unchanged.
- GET /api/health returns {"ok":true} without a valid token; with one it
still returns service and version for the web UI top bar.
The server wrote jwt.key to the executable's directory, /app in the
image, so it lived in the container's writable layer and every container
rebuild generated a new key and signed all users out.
- ARTEX_JWT_KEY_DIR selects the key directory (default: config.BaseDir(),
unchanged for non-Docker installs). docker-compose.yml sets it to
/app/keys and bind-mounts ./keys there; the Dockerfile declares the
volume. The key stays out of data/, which the file manager browses.
- loadOrCreateJWTKey creates the directory (0700). When keyDir/jwt.key is
missing it migrates dataDir/jwt.key, then BaseDir()/jwt.key (mode 0600,
old file removed), otherwise generates a new key. An existing key is
never overwritten; a short one is now a startup error.
- .gitignore and .dockerignore exclude keys/.
- README and CHANGELOG updated; the 0.5.0 known issue is removed.
New accepted opts ...Option but never called them, so scrubSecrets stayed
false in the binary and ScrubSecretEnv was unreachable: the protection merged
in #136 never engaged. The unit test passed because it called the scrub
function directly instead of going through New.
Apply the options in the constructor and add a test that builds a Server
through New with WithSecretScrub and asserts the secrets are gone. Verified to
fail without the loop.
POST /api/llm/test and POST /api/llm/models take provider and base_url from
the form but fell back to the stored profile key (and, for the test, the
global key) when the form had none. Any base_url typed into the form, or
supplied by a crafted request, received the saved key.
The saved key is now used only when the request's provider and base URL
normalize to the ones it was saved with (sameLLMEndpoint, built on
agent.ConfigFrom). Otherwise the key must be entered in the form, and the
error says why.
POST /api/auth/init accepted any caller while auth.password_hash was empty,
so whoever reached port 8787 first could set the admin password and take the
instance. When no password is set at startup, the server now generates a
random one-time setup token and writes it to the server log. authInit
compares it in constant time, rejects a missing or wrong token with 403, and
clears it once the password is stored.
The setup page has a field for the token and api.initPassword sends it.
docker-compose publishes 8787 on 127.0.0.1 only, like 8788. README says where
to find the token.
The scrub ran in main after server.New returned, but New resumes every
non-terminal task before returning, and those loops start workers that run
shells. Move the scrub into New, right after both environment readers, and
start MCP discovery after it as well: both paths spawn child processes.
New takes an option rather than scrubbing unconditionally. The test suite
builds several servers in one process and still needs ARTEX_PG_DSN on later
calls, so only the binary opts in.
The saved-profile path normalized /v1 but FromEnv did not, so
ARTEX_LLM_BASE_URL=http://host:11434 sent chat to /chat/completions and got a
404 on a LAN Ollama server. Share one helper between both entry points, and add
an env-path test with a bare host and with a full endpoint URL.
Also soften the keyless comment: a local Ollama ignores the bearer token, but a
gateway in front of it can require one, which belongs in a saved profile.
Two review fixes on top of the Ollama provider:
FromEnv no longer inherits OPENAI_API_KEY for the ollama format. Ollama
ignores the bearer token, so inheriting the cloud key could only ship it to
the local or LAN endpoint, contradicting the comment in NewProvider and the
documented behavior.
ConfigFrom now normalizes the base URL to the /v1 root, so the natural
Ollama URL (host:11434 without /v1) works for chat as well. Previously the
provider appended /chat/completions to it and the request landed on a path
Ollama does not serve, while pgListModels already appended /v1.
Tests: bare-host normalization assertion, the /v1/chat/completions path
assertion, and a new test that the env config carries no inherited key.
The update source is hard-coded to a repository that no longer exists and the release checksums are unsigned. Removes the selfupdate package and the /api/update/* endpoints, the top-bar check that queried GitHub on every page load, the Version & Updates card, and the exit-75 swap protocol in the start scripts.
Seam fix after merging #111 (escalation) with #114 (ctx-threaded
hooks.current): the escalation test predates the signature change and kept
compiling on its own branch, so the merge left main red.
- resetLLMFailStreaksForTest helper: the package-global streak is in-memory
state, so the no-switch-on-ordinary-error subtests now reset it before each
case (accumulation across subtests sharing task/profile keys made the third
case escalate, breaking the contract the test guards)
- core lifecycle and credentials fixtures: goals now name the lab target, per
the ambiguity gate (these tests exercise lifecycle/credentials, not the gate)
- canonical reset helper moved into task_llm.go next to the counter it resets
Implements the per-intent rotation shape from #85: a task created with
llm_rotate=true distributes worker intents round-robin over its LLM chain
heads, so lane A can hunt on one model while lane B hunts on another
(different lenses per intent, no extra tokens). Default stays the classic
ordered failover from the active head; planner/goals/mainagent keep the
active head always.
Mechanics: the engine pins the next chain head into the run context when a
worker claims an intent; the pin travels through the provider resolver
(hooks.current now takes ctx). A pin is only a dispatch preference - it must
belong to the task chain and never bypasses failover state (an exhausted
chain stays exhausted). Schema: tasks.llm_rotate boolean, default false,
idempotent ALTER; exposed on the create payload and the task DTO.
Closes#85 (the ensemble/P4 shape stays parked as before)
Three orchestration mechanisms from the Q00/ouroboros evaluation (#99):
- Goal ambiguity gate at task creation: a goal must name a target (URL,
domain, IPv4, localhost:port or absolute path) and reach a length floor,
else the API returns 400 before any token is spent. Deliberately
target-less goals opt out with the literal marker [targetless]. Guards
against the live failure where a goal naming no target sent every worker
to an unrelated asset.
- Consecutive-failure escalation on the task LLM chain: quota exhaustion
already advances the chain; now 3 consecutive non-quota call failures on
the same chain profile advance it too, with the true reason recorded.
Escalation-only by design (no auto-downgrade: mid-task model swaps risk
behavior drift; the operator keeps the manual chain reset).
- Stagnation surfacing in the planner overview: finished intents are
fingerprinted (case-folded, digits collapsed); a direction dispatched 3+
times with zero findings since its first attempt is flagged in a
self-describing stagnation_warning payload that instructs the planner to
diversify instead of grinding. Absent when nothing stagnates.
Closes#99
Extracts candidate lessons from terminal tasks (confirmed, negative,
retest caution), gates them on cue + action + evidence, and makes
extraction idempotent through a per-source evidence key.
ARTEX_RSI_LESSONS selects off / shadow / inject. Shadow logs what would
have been shown; inject appends a code-owned, data-not-instructions block
after the planner and worker system prompts. No prompt mutation and no
adoption: status stays candidate.

Apache-2.0, arXiv 2610.14224); the gain taxonomy from awesome-rsi
(lobehub).
GET /api/skill-gaps aggregates skill_usage rows with found=false by
skill, agent, and task category. Hits are returned for the same key so a
miss rate needs no second query; hit-only skills are excluded. The source
rows already existed: a miss is written when the model names a skill the
platform does not provide.
This is the evidence-backed capability backlog, not an auto-fixer: it
creates no skill and changes no prompt. Motivated by the harness and
skill-evolution sections of awesome-rsi (lobehub).
Adds GET /api/tasks/{id}/outcome: finding disposition and severity,
retest verdicts, result-row token totals, tool calls, skill misses, and
wall time in one row. This is the measurement layer an RSI loop needs
before claiming a change helped; it alters no agent behavior.
Metric selection follows harness2 (Google Research, Apache-2.0,
arXiv 2610.14224) and the task-gain / retained-gain / improver-gain
taxonomy in the awesome-rsi list.
GET /api/tasks/{id} returned the metrics block zeroed (tokens, goal
progress, in_flight, findings, last_activity) because only listTasks
populated those DTO fields. Extract the fill into applyTaskMetrics and
call it from both handlers so the two endpoints report identical
numbers from the same TaskListMetricsAll query. The swallowed query
error in listTasks is now logged instead of silently zeroing the table.
Test: TestTaskDetailReturnsListMetrics seeds result-activity tokens and
goal nodes, asserts the detail endpoint reports them and matches the
list endpoint; fails on main, passes with the fix.
Fixes#91
Quiet-mode was compile-time only; wanting it off mid-task (empty frontier, one long intent, idle lanes) was impossible. tasks.plan_quiet_mode (default on) gates the edge-round skip in runRound, PATCH /api/tasks/{id} flips it live (the next round reads it), creation accepts plan_quiet_mode, and the DTO exposes it.
defer m.Close() ran before the t.Cleanup DeleteTask calls, so they raced a closed database and the late writers they trigger could still touch the temp dir while RemoveAll was already walking it (the CI-only TempDir: directory not empty flake). The manager now closes via a t.Cleanup registered first (runs last, LIFO) and the temp dir is removed with a tolerated failure.
agent, db, server and evidence serialized on one shared test database via an advisory lock, while evidence, llmrec and traffic-style packages could still run against it in parallel; under full-suite load that window produced a real SQLSTATE 40P01 deadlock in the blackboard direct-source test. TestMain in every PG-using package now rewrites ARTEX_PG_DSN to a per-package database (created automatically by ensureDatabase), so packages neither contend nor need to serialize; the advisory lock stays as an in-package safety net. llmrec gains the TestMain it lacked, which also gives its requires-isolated-DSN tests a truly isolated database inside ./... runs.
Every worker write-back fired a full planning round even when the open-goal set had not changed; on a live three-worker task that was 7 rounds in 45 minutes. Edge-triggered rounds are now dropped while active intents exist and the open-goal fingerprint recorded at the end of the last round is unchanged; heartbeat rounds, goal-set changes and frontier drains still plan immediately. Fails open on store errors.
The fallback only borrowed the stored key; provider, model, base_url, proxy, streaming and thinking settings still came from the request form. An empty form (the list-view test button) then hit ConfigFrom defaults, sending the profile key to the canonical provider endpoint and 401ing. Fields the form leaves empty now come from the stored profile; explicit form values still win.
input_tokens includes the cached subset under Anthropic and OpenAI usage semantics, so pricing input and cache read at their full prices double-counted the cache. The fresh share is now input minus cache reads, clamped at zero for gateways reporting disjoint buckets.
The token metering is real now (input, output, cache read/write per
profile), but it answers "how many tokens" while the question an operator
actually asks is "what did this run cost". Converting requires per-profile
prices, which nowhere exist.
Changes:
- llm_profiles gains four optional price columns (EUR per 1M tokens:
input, output, cache read, cache write; 0/NULL = unset), migrated
idempotently and round-tripped through SaveProfile / the profile API
in one small auditable write
- the usage aggregation computes cost_eur per profile from the stored
prices, in Go after the archived-task merge so cold-storage tokens are
priced identically; profiles without prices keep cost_eur nil instead
of showing a fake zero
- web types carry cost_eur and the price fields; the dashboard card and
profile-dialog inputs consume them in a follow-up (the API serves the
data already)
- integration test: priced profile + usage rows -> expected EUR to the
cent (2M in @1.5 + 0.5M out @4 + 1M cache-read @0.15 = 5.15), plus a
prices round-trip check
Note: the Go side activates on the next build; the schema migration is
idempotent at startup.
The connection test resolves its API key as: form input, else the stored
profile's key, else the global key. Form keys pass through ConfigFrom,
which trims surrounding whitespace; the stored-key fallback assigned
p.APIKey raw. A key pasted with a trailing space or newline therefore
behaved asymmetrically: conversations worked (the runtime path loads the
profile through ConfigFrom and trims) while the connection test sent the
malformed header and failed auth with 401. SaveProfile had the same gap
one layer down, storing the raw pasted value.
Changes:
- the llm/test fallback now trims the stored key and session header name,
matching ConfigFrom's normalization so the test sends byte-identical
headers to what the runtime sends for the same profile
- SaveProfile trims the key before storing (and before deriving the
hint), so surrounding whitespace never reaches the database
- tests: an integration test saves a profile with a whitespace-padded
key, runs the real handler against a fake anthropic endpoint, and
asserts the endpoint received the trimmed key; a second test pins the
ConfigFrom trim the fallback must match
When a worker hits an environmental failure (sandboxed or filtered
network path, missing binary or key, TLS or proxy interception, missing
runtime permission), nothing today tells it how to stop: transcripts
show turn after turn of retries with different flags, equivalent tools,
or fallback transports, all burning budget against a wall the agent
cannot move.
Changes:
- the ask_operator tool description now covers environmental blocks
explicitly: do not retry or work around; include the exact single
command the operator should run in their own terminal as one
copy-pastable line, plus what to paste back, then wait. The question
parameter description gains the same guidance.
- worker and pentest seeds gain an "Operator handoff on environmental
blocks" block: stop after the first environmental failure, no
flag-hopping, no bypass hunting, one command per ask_operator request,
never batch.
- tests: the tool description must keep the handoff markers
(TestAskOperatorEnvHandoffGuidance) and the executor seeds must keep
the block (TestPromptSeedsCarryOperatorHandoff).
Pattern adapted from bug-bounty-hunting-prompts (MIT), whose operator
handoff rule produced exactly this single-command format.
ARTEX hunts live targets well but has no methodology for auditing source
code handed to it (a plugin, an application, a repository). White-box
audits so far ran on ad-hoc task goals with no shared procedure.
Adds skills/codeaudit/SKILL.md, distilled from VulnHunter's methodology
(Apache-2.0) and adapted to ARTEX mechanics (work dir artifacts, facts,
report_finding, the standing quality and adversarial gates):
- production-code-only scope rules, with the checked-in infra-config
exception (reverse proxy / trust / CORS directives are in scope)
- phase 1: every user-controllable input inventoried with dispositions,
codebase partitioning, shared defense catalog
- phase 2: attacker-first forward tracing per vuln class, with the
investigation discipline (never stop at abstraction boundaries, audit
all parameters at outbound call sites, exhaust all paths, follow
through stores and responses, transitive caller search on sinks)
- three gates (reachable, attacker-controlled, new capability), comment
skepticism, sanitizer scope mismatch, anti-merge
- PoC preference order (executed against a local instance beats static
trace; static PoCs carry entry value, file:line chain, sink literal,
impact), measured impact per the standing gates
- sweep with per-instance dispositions and a count cross-check that
forbids silent drops
Also fixes the shipped scopesentry skill, which the new guard test
caught immediately: its frontmatter block was never closed and its name
did not match its directory, so the whole file failed frontmatter
parsing and silently degraded to an empty description (the skill has
been undiscoverable). The new server test parses every shipped skill
with the real parser and fails on any skill LoadDir cannot read or that
ends with an empty description.
