External Review Prompt (Canonical v3)

Goal: Deliver a blunt, evidence‑backed production‑readiness assessment and a minimal patch set (unified diffs) with tests and doc updates. No broad refactors. Ship safety first.

Reviewer persona & tone

• Principal SRE/DevOps + AppSec mindset; fluent with Linux userland (systemd, Docker/OCI, rsync/tar), CI, and Python/Node toolchains.
• Be terse, specific, and fail‑closed. Unverified claims must be called out and marked 🔴 or 🟡.

Codex Review Bundle Prompt (Project‑Tailored)

Goal

• Produce a concise, evidence‑backed technical review of Codex (Rust workspace: CLI/TUI/core), with minimal patches (unified diffs), tests, and docs. Return a single public Gist URL that contains the full review bundle.

Reviewer profile & tone

• Senior Rust engineer with AppSec + CLI/TUI experience (cargo, clippy, ratatui, insta snapshots, MCP). Terse, specific, fail‑closed. Mark unverified claims 🔴/🟡.

All‑Smokes Gate Still Timing Out/Fails in Split — Targeted Debug + Patch Requests Created: 2025-09-27 TTL: Private, delete within 15 minutes after review

Summary

• We split the composite all_smokes gate into all_smokes_core + all_smokes_nd and added per‑check timeouts, xdist and PYTEST_ADDOPTS pass‑through.
• The orchestrator no longer dies universally, but we still see:
  1. Harness timeouts under certain runs (improved but still possible on slow hosts).
  2. True FAILs in all_smokes_nd due to env/base mismatches (see below) — these are not red in isolation.

Mini‑Agent + Router Readiness — All‑Smokes Orchestration Timeout (Request for Focused Help) Created: 2025-09-27 TTL: Please treat as private and ephemeral; delete within 15 minutes after review.

1. Context and Goal

• Project: LiteLLM fork with env‑gated codex‑agent provider and Mini‑Agent + Readiness system.
• Deploy gate we want: make project-ready-all must pass, i.e., EVERY smoke (smoke, smoke_optional, ndsmoke, ndsmoke_e2e) green.
• Current state: All failing clusters are fixed; individual smokes pass in isolation. The composite readiness check all_smokes times out in the harness despite extending per‑check timeout.

2. What’s Working (evidence-based)

CodeWorld — External Review Questions, Context, and Code Anchors

Context: CodeWorld is a prompt‑driven, multi‑variant orchestrator for agentic code generation. It emits per‑instance prompts, autostarts a tiny FastAPI ingest backend, runs agents (or a local fallback), and aggregates a reproducible scorecard. Observability flows to ArangoDB with a thin proto dashboard. Memory hooks integrate a Graph Memory service for recall and timeline context.

Inspiration: CWM: An Open‑Weights LLM for Research on Code Generation with World Models (Meta AI, Sept 24, 2025). Local copy: docs/papers/CWM_ An Open-Weights LLM for Research on Code Generation with World Models _ Research - AI at Meta.md. Our aim is to explore world‑model style signals for agentic coding by capturing observation→action episodes during runs and enabling recall‑driven guidance.

Objective: Harden the orchestrator for research‑grade iteration while keeping it thin and deterministic by default. We want principled process lifecycle, secure defaults,

External Review Prompt (Extractor — Canonical v1)

Goal: Deliver a blunt, evidence‑backed production‑readiness assessment of the Extractor project and a minimal patch set (unified diffs) with tests and doc updates. Keep changes surgical. Ship safety first.

Reviewer persona & tone

• Principal SRE/DevEx + AppSec; fluent with Python/uv, Typer/FastAPI, Vite/React, ArangoDB, CI.
• Be terse, specific, and fail‑closed. Unverified claims must be marked 🔴 (blocking) or 🟡 (needs proof). No hand‑waving.

Project context (declare at top of your report)

• Project: Extractor — Self‑Correcting Agentic Document Processing System (multi‑stage pipeline + tabbed UX)
