Summary

Stacked on #67; the diff shows both until it merges.

The conducted example's host loop held rules that are the episode's, not a host's: an ask opens a conversation that runs first and concludes to the asker (ADR 0023); a stalled desk seat and a silent askee are told once and owed a turn (ADR 0024); a broadcast or an ask made inside a conversation is desk work; a refused completion is explained to the seat; a spent broadcast budget completes the seat with the work; walls end what will not. Ten live runs found and fixed them in that loop, and no host taking the crates could reproduce them.

They are now tinyhivemind_driver::Conductor: the desk episode with a child episode per conversation and the folds between them, driven by a host that appends the rows. It appends nothing itself. It hands the host Steps -- a Note to append attributed to the desk, a Commit to append and report the sequence of through committed, an Event to log -- one wave at a time: begin_wave, turns, open_turn (the brief), record, then step until the wave settles. Door and starters open the desk from a routing plan. ConductPolicy holds the two walls.

The example's loop shrinks to what a host owns: the journal, the prompt, running a turn, and the log lines for events. Both offline proofs on both desks and the bench are unchanged through it.

Related issue

None. Follows #67.

API or behavior changes

  • New in tinyhivemind-driver: Conductor, ConductPolicy, Door, starters, Turn, Note, Commit, Event, Refusal, Step; Error::{Stalled, TurnWall, CommitOutstanding, NoCommitOutstanding}.
  • No change to CompletionDriver, DriverState, the ledger or the brief. The driver stays in the pure list.
  • No behavior change in an episode: every rule moved with its wording and its order. Two things the loop printed became Events the host prints.

Validation

Commands actually run, with their outcome:

  • cargo fmt --all -- --check -- clean
  • cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings -- clean
  • cargo build --all-targets --all-features -- ok
  • cargo test --all-features -- all green; 13 new conductor tests
  • .github/scripts/assert-pure.sh -- clean
  • RUSTDOCFLAGS="-D warnings" cargo doc --no-deps --all-features -- ok
  • cargo llvm-cov -p tinyhivemind-driver -- every conduct/ file 95% or above
  • cargo run -p tinyhivemind-driver --example bench -- --episodes 25 -- ok
  • examples/openhuman: cargo clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings; cargo test -- --skip security::preflight (49 passed; the two DeepSWE Docker preflight tests hang on a machine with no Docker, unrelated to this change); both offline proofs on login and the raw proof on triage; CONDUCTED_BENCH=3 -- embed 56.7 KiB/turn, raw 24.4 KiB/turn, as before

Tests

crates/tinyhivemind-driver/src/conduct/test/: a host that is only a journal drives waves through the conductor. Covered: the door and every plan shape; an ask opening a conversation that runs first, concludes to the asker, and is shown once; a completion refused while a conversation is open; a silent askee nudged once and then walled; a broadcast or ask inside a conversation reaching the desk and a dm dropped; nothing due concluding every conversation; a stalled desk seat nudged once per assignment and the episode then stalling; an unplaced broadcast; a placed broadcast completing its author and a handoff to a busy recipient, then an undelivered completion refused; a spent budget discharging the seat; the turn wall; and the commit protocol's two errors.

Deliberately untested: a conversation reaching the wall by turns alone rather than by the nudge sequence, which is the same branch.

Documentation

  • crates/tinyhivemind-driver/src/conduct/README.md, and the crate and source READMEs
  • The conduct module doc walks one wave from the host's side

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds the Conductor API for episode orchestration. It manages conversations, nudges, routing, refusals, walls, host commits, events, and completion state. The conducted example now uses this API instead of manual orchestration.

A rabbit sees waves begin,
Turns hop through desk and thread,
Notes and commits land in rows,
Nudges guide the silent flows,
Walls close paths when work is done.

Comment @coderabbitai help to get the list of available commands.

The example's host loop held rules that are the episode's, not a
host's: an ask opens a conversation that runs first and concludes to
the asker (ADR 0023); a stalled desk seat and a silent askee are told
once and owed a turn (ADR 0024); a broadcast or an ask made inside a
conversation is desk work; a refused completion is explained; a spent
budget completes the seat with the work; walls end what will not. Ten
live runs found and fixed them there, and no host taking the crates
could reproduce them.

They are now tinyhivemind-driver's Conductor: the desk episode with a
child episode per conversation and the folds between them, driven by a
host that appends the rows. It hands the host notes to append, commits
to append and report the sequence of, and events to log. Every rule is
tested against a journal and nothing else. The example keeps what a
host owns: the journal, the prompt, running a turn, and the log, and
both offline proofs and the bench are unchanged through it.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
CI also runs a plain cargo test, where the offline module does not
exist; the crate example now seats a raw runner against any endpoint
with a default config, which is what a host does.

Skip nudges when forcing conclusions

Wave::begin sets force_conclusions when nothing is due, and the field is documented as meaning that every open conversation concludes without an answer. However, this phase always calls nudge_silent_askees. If an open child has already taken a turn, is not quiescent, and has not been nudged, a no-work wave emits a waiting note/event and calls owe_turn before immediately queueing its forced conclusion. That produces an observable nudge and mutates the child despite the documented forced-conclusion behavior. Only nudge silent askees when the wave is not forcing conclusions.

The path was unreachable (a forced wave opens no turns, so no child has turned set), but the intent deserves to be explicit: fc4906d7 skips the silent-askee phase when the wave is forcing conclusions.

Reject starter identities outside the desk membership

Door::starters is public, but open never verifies that each starter is in door.members. For example, members = ["a"] and starters = ["missing"] completes a at once, so the conductor opens a quiescent episode even though the requested route has no runnable seat. Validate that starters are a non-empty subset of members and return an error instead of silently treating every member as passed over.

Skip nudging conversations that have reached the turn wall

A child that has taken a turn, remains non-quiescent, and has already reached child_turn_wall enters this branch before queue_conclusions handles it. The wave therefore emits a waiting note and Nudged event, marks the child as nudged, and owes it another turn even though the same wave immediately queues its conclusion. This produces an observable nudge and mutates a conversation that is already terminal under the wall policy. Exclude children for which child.is_over(self.policy.child_turn_wall) is true when selecting silent askees.

Record the askee reply only after the fold accepts it

last_by_askee is updated before apply_committed validates the row. If the askee speaks before its newly assigned turn has been shown, the fold returns Error::UndeliveredAssignment and emits a refusal, but this code has already stored that refused message as the conversation's last answer. A later conclusion can therefore report an answer that was never accepted. Update last_by_askee only after apply_committed succeeds.

The helper accepts arbitrary hive member slices, and an empty or otherwise candidate-less request is a valid edge case for routing tests; return an evaluation/error appropriate to the router contract instead of indexing element zero.

Fixed in fc4906d7: the fixture router returns a transport error for an empty candidate list instead of indexing.

Borrow the routing plan when checking clarification

matches!(plan, ...) consumes the non-Copy RoutingPlan, so the subsequent starters(&plan, fallback) borrow fails with a use-after-move compilation error. Match against a borrow instead, such as matches!(&plan, RoutingPlan::Clarify { .. }).

Suggested change
if matches!(plan, RoutingPlan::Clarify { .. }) {
eprintln!("[door] routing asked for clarification; {fallback} owns it");
}
let starters = tinyhivemind_driver::starters(&plan, fallback);
if matches!(&plan, RoutingPlan::Clarify { .. }) {

Not a move: matches!(plan, RoutingPlan::Clarify { .. }) binds nothing, so plan is intact for starters(&plan, fallback) on the next line. The example compiles and runs as written (both offline proofs and the bench in the PR description ran through this line). No change.

Propagate failures from the conducted episode

The loop records errors with break Err(...), but the resulting settled value is never consumed before the function prints the report and returns Ok(report). Routing, driver, or conductor failures can therefore be silently treated as successful runs. Propagate the result after the loop, for example with settled?;, before producing the report.

It is consumed: settled?; is at the end of the report section, after the journal dump and before the offline proof assertion (line 893 on this head). A routing, driver or conductor failure ends the run there. No change.

Filter private rows before building thread context

thread returns every row attached to the thread without checking row.4 (only_for). wave passes this result to each seat's open_turn, so a row intended for one seat can be included in another seat's context whenever it shares the thread. Add the requesting seat to this API and exclude rows whose only_for does not match it, while retaining public rows.

Same as the thread above: thread rows are never addressed to one seat by the conductor, so the fixture's thread has nothing to filter. Declined.

…swers

From review: a starter outside the desk, or no starter at all, is an
error rather than a quietly quiescent episode; a conversation at its
wall, or one concluding because nothing is due, is not told to answer
first; and the answer a conversation carries to its asker is the row
the fold accepted, not the one that was tried. Each has a test.

Name the test/ directory, not test.rs.

The module ships test/mod.rs with conversations.rs, desk.rs, door.rs, and support.rs. The table entry does not match the source layout.
