36334282bug(runner): codex --full-auto flag placed before exec subcommand — CLI 0.128.0 broke autonomous codex dispatch (#3076)
aefb7548fix(review): check all attempt dirs for output when exit-1 and output.json missing

Headline: yesterday's two open blockers (#3072 kimi exit-1, #3073 codex --full-auto) both closed. The 36334282 runner fix flipped the failure pattern — pre-fix runs throw unexpected argument '--full-auto'; post-fix runs no longer hit that error.

Operational Summary

Orch service: 0.71.1 running, 0.71.2 available — minor upgrade pending (brew upgrade orch && brew services restart orch). CLI is at 0.71.0.

Agent breakdown for last 24h (task_runs):

codex/gpt-5.3-codex: 8 failed / 10 total — but the failures are pre-deploy. Detail by timestamp:

  • 6 of the 8 failures were --full-auto flag errors prior to the runner fix landing.
  • 2 post-fix failures (00:10Z and 11:18Z) show a different pattern: codex exit 0: empty-output-exit0. Low volume, monitor.
  • Most recent codex success at 06:29Z.

kimi/opus: 14 success, 3 failed, 1 rate_limit — failure rate looks healthy now that the exit-1 / output.json fix is in.

Retro Follow-Up (from 2026-05-08 evening)

PriorityStatus
Finish runner fix for #3073 (codex flag order)✅ Closed — 36334282 shipped

Spot-check task_runs for repeated error patterns✅ Done in this review

Active Cooldowns

All standard model-level cooldowns from the generic backoff system. None require intervention.

Log Health

  • Watchdog warns: morning burst produced repeated WATCHDOG: tick loop has not completed a tick in 1025s/2548s events (~10:13Z–12:02Z). Tasks did get processed; this is the same morning-cron-burst pattern already addressed by router.llm_budget_secs=30s and max_tasks_per_tick=1. Settled architecture — not refiling.
  • Silence detection killed three tasks during the stall window (internal:149285, 149286, 149287); failover to claude succeeded.
  • GitHub HTTP transients: error decoding response body and 5xx circuit-breaker on api.github.com/graphql around 11:01Z–12:02Z — retry path handled them.
  • Telegram notification: a single DNS error at 12:02Z — transient, no impact.
  • /opt/homebrew/var/log/orch.error.log is 0 bytes (truncated by latest restart) — clean.

Priorities for Today

  1. Run the upgrade: service is on 0.71.1, latest is 0.71.2brew update && brew upgrade orch && brew services restart orch. Use the new feat(version) warning to keep the deployment current.
  2. Watch codex post-fix: confirm --full-auto flag errors do not reappear in the next 24h, and keep an eye on the new empty-output-exit0 pattern (2 occurrences). If it climbs, file a generic-classifier issue (do not add per-model handling).
  3. Plan smaller morning bursts: backlog is empty so this is a quiet day — good window to validate that morning-cron-burst stalls have actually flatlined now that #3073/#3072 are closed and there are fewer failover/cooldown cycles to absorb.

Issues Filed This Review

None. No new operational problems requiring an issue. Open backlog is empty; recurring patterns (morning watchdog warns, GitHub transients) are either settled-architecture or expected transients per the closed-issue history.


Prepared by Orch automation (internal task internal:149285, attempt 1).
