# Changelog
All notable changes to this project are documented here. The format follows
[Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/), and the project uses
[Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
## [Unreleased]
## [1.0.0] - 2026-09-21
First public release. `ai-incidents` began as a nightly job in a private set of scheduled agent
scripts, where it had been running since July 2026 and had filed 44 incidents. This release
extracts it into a standalone tool with no dependency on that environment.
### Added
- `ai-incidents run`: scan transcripts, gate, judge, write the ledger, commit, record. A run with
no candidates makes no model call.
- `ai-incidents scan`, `init`, `reindex` and `config` commands.
- `--dry-run` (no model call, no writes), `--dry-run --with-judge` (model call, still no writes),
and `--backfill` to judge existing history instead of taking a baseline on a first run.
- One TOML configuration file for transcript locations, judge, ledger, git, state, privacy and
hooks. Unknown keys are rejected.
- opencode 1.x support: sessions are read from its SQLite store, opened read-only.
- Judge backends: the Claude Code CLI (all tools and MCP servers disabled, no session
persistence), any OpenAI-compatible endpoint for local models, or an arbitrary command.
- Structured verdicts: the judge answers in JSON, which is validated before anything is written;
the ledger, report and index are rendered by the tool, not edited by the model.
- Secret redaction of candidates before they reach the judge and of verdicts before they reach the
ledger.
- `WriteGuard`: every file write is checked against the ledger directory and the state file.
- Optional hooks (`notify_cmd`, `on_success_cmd`, `on_failure_cmd`, and `--notify-cmd`) in place
of built-in notification and heartbeat services.
- Optional plain-text seen-list export, for transcript-cleanup jobs that must not delete
sessions before they are judged.
- A run lock, so overlapping runs cannot race on the state file.
- Examples for a systemd user timer and cron, a full configuration reference, and a curated sample
ledger and run report.
- Test suite (pre-filter, both transcript formats, state semantics, judge backends, ledger
writer, redaction, permission envelope, git) and GitHub Actions CI on Python 3.11 to 3.13.
### Changed (from the private sweep)
- **Renamed and folded.** The collector (`ai-incidents-collect` plus `_scan_incidents.py`), the
gate (`ai-incidents-gate`), the agent job definition, and the publisher
(`ai-incidents-publish`) are now one program, `ai-incidents run`. The pre-filter lives in
`prefilter.py`, transcript reading in `sources.py`, the judge rubric in `prompts/judge.md`, and
ledger writing in `ledger.py`.
- **The judge no longer edits files.** It used to be an agent with Read, Write and Edit tools and
a scoped shell; it now receives text and returns JSON, with no tools at all. The tool writes the
ledger itself.
- **Severity-ranked ledger.** `incidents.md` is ordered most severe first, newest first within a
severity (it was newest first). `order = "newest"` restores the old order.
- **`state.json` in the ledger is now `index.json`.** It is still derived from `incidents.md` on
every write and uses the same fingerprints, so existing `first_seen` dates carry over. The name
`state.json` now belongs to the tool's own run state, kept outside the ledger by default.
- **Two-phase seen-state is kept, in one process.** Sessions with candidates are recorded as judged
only after the verdict is written and committed; clean sessions immediately. The separate
`--promote` step is gone.
- **Talkative sessions are cut once instead of split across runs.** A session with more candidates
than the per-run budget used to be re-emitted on every run and never finished; it is now capped
at `max_per_session` candidates, with its behaviour block always kept.
- **Tracebacks from the agent's own inline scripts** (`python -c`, stdin heredocs) no longer count
as notable failures on their own.
- **Only shell commands are checked for destructive patterns**, not file paths passed to read or
edit tools.
- **Git writes are narrower.** Commits name their paths explicitly (`git commit -- <paths>`), so
other staged or untracked files in the ledger repository are never swept in. The hard-coded
remote check became the optional `expected_remote_url`.
### Removed
- Multi-host collection over SSH. Run one instance per machine instead.
- Built-in ntfy notification, the dead-man's-switch heartbeat, quota-retry scheduling and the
unattended-agent runner: use hooks, your scheduler's own retry, and `on_success_cmd`.
- Hard-coded paths, host names and repository names.

# Contributing
Bug reports and pull requests are welcome at https://github.com/sudolulo/ai-incidents.
## Development
```sh
python -m venv .venv && . .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e '.[test]'
pytest
```
The package has no runtime dependencies beyond the Python standard library (3.11+), and it should
stay that way.
## Ground rules
- **The permission envelope is the product.** Every file write goes through `WriteGuard`;
transcripts are only ever opened read-only; the judge gets text on stdin and no tools. A change
that weakens any of these needs a very good reason and a test.
- **A new pre-filter pattern needs a test** showing a transcript line it catches, and ideally one it
must not catch. The pre-filter favours recall, but every false positive costs judge tokens.
- **Never commit a real transcript.** Build fixtures with the helpers in `tests/helpers.py`. Test
secrets are assembled at runtime so the source does not trip secret scanners.
- **Keep the ledger format stable.** People hand-edit `incidents.md`; a format change must parse
the old format and must not rewrite hand-written entries.
- Update `CHANGELOG.md` under `Unreleased`.

AI disclosure
This tool runs an AI model as part of its normal operation: each run sends
pre-filtered excerpts of your agent transcripts to the model you configure
(the Claude Code CLI by default, or a local model), and that model judges which
moments were real incidents and drafts the ledger entries.
Portions of this repository, including code, tests and documentation, were
written with the assistance of AI (Anthropic Claude / Claude Code) under the
maintainer's direction. The sample ledger and report in examples/ were derived
from entries the tool itself drafted during real use, then curated and
generalized for publication.

# ai-incidents
Coding agents occasionally do real damage: they delete data, take a service down, leak a
credential into a transcript, or burn a week of quota, and the lesson is usually forgotten by the
next session. `ai-incidents` runs unattended over your own Claude Code and opencode transcripts,
uses deterministic rules to pick out the moments that look like trouble, has a model judge which
of them were real incidents, and keeps a severity-ranked markdown ledger of what broke, what it
cost and the lesson, with a record of everything it excluded and why.
[`examples/sample-ledger.md`](examples/sample-ledger.md) is a curated excerpt from real use, and
[`examples/sample-report.md`](examples/sample-report.md) shows the matching run report.
## Install
```sh
pipx install git+https://github.com/sudolulo/ai-incidents # or: uv tool install git+https://...
ai-incidents init --ledger ~/ai-incidents-ledger --git # writes ~/.config/ai-incidents/config.toml
ai-incidents run --dry-run # see what would be judged; changes nothing
```
From a checkout, `pipx install .` or `uv tool install .` works the same way. Python 3.11 or later,
no other dependencies. The default judge is the Claude Code CLI (`claude`), which must be logged in;
see [Choosing a judge](#choosing-a-judge) for local models.
## Quick start
```sh
ai-incidents run --dry-run # scan, and show what would be sent to the judge; no model call
ai-incidents run # first run: record existing sessions as a baseline, judge nothing
ai-incidents run # later runs: judge only sessions that are new or have grown
```
The first run takes a **baseline**: it records every existing session as already judged, so you
do not pay to judge your whole history on day one. To judge history instead, run
`ai-incidents run --backfill` (or set `first_run = "backfill"`); it works through the backlog
`max_candidates` at a time, one batch per run.
Then schedule it. A systemd user timer and a crontab line are in
[`examples/systemd/`](examples/systemd) and [`examples/cron.txt`](examples/cron.txt). Nightly is
plenty: runs are incremental, and a night with nothing to judge makes no model call at all.
A run prints one line per source and a headline:
```
claude-code: 12 new session(s), 10 clean, 2 with candidates
opencode: 3 new session(s), 3 clean, 0 with candidates
Candidates: 5
committed 240f3cb
ai-incidents 2026-09-21: 1 filed (1 high), 2 candidate(s) excluded
HIGH Deleted 48,211 live production orders with the wrong connection string
report: /home/you/ai-incidents-ledger/reports/2026-09-21.md
```
## What it writes
Everything goes into the ledger directory (a git repository, if you want history):
| File | What |
|---|---|
| `incidents.md` | The ledger. One entry per incident: title, date, severity, then **What**, **Cost** and **Lesson**. Most severe first. Hand edits and hand-written entries are kept. |
| `reports/YYYY-MM-DD.md` | One per judged run: what the pre-filter found, each confirmed incident with the reason it cleared the bar, each excluded candidate with the reason it did not, and the judge's token use. |
| `latest.md` | A copy of the newest report. |
| `index.json` | A machine index (fingerprint, title, date, severity, first seen). Regenerated from `incidents.md` on every write; do not edit it. |
An entry looks like this:
```markdown
## Committed 14 embedded git repositories to `main` with `git add -A` · 2026-07-14 · MEDIUM
- **What:** ran `git add -A && git commit && git push` in a worktree where a scheduled review job had left 14 throwaway clones ...
- **Cost:** `main` carried 14 broken submodule references that broke cloning until a follow-up commit removed them ...
- **Lesson:** `git add -A` is not a review step: stage explicit paths anywhere a tool may have written, and read the warnings from commands that succeed.
```
The tool's own run state (which sessions have been judged) lives outside the ledger, in
`~/.local/state/ai-incidents/state.json` by default.
## Configuration
One TOML file, `~/.config/ai-incidents/config.toml` by default (or `$AI_INCIDENTS_CONFIG`, or
`-c PATH`). [`examples/config.toml`](examples/config.toml) documents every key. Unknown keys are an
error, so a typo cannot quietly switch something off. `ai-incidents config` prints the effective
settings, including exactly which paths the tool will write.
| Table | Key | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| `[[source]]` | `type` | `claude-code`, `opencode` | Transcript format. Omit every `[[source]]` to read both defaults. |
| | `path` | `~/.claude/projects`, `~/.local/share/opencode/opencode*.db` | Where the transcripts are. The opencode path is a glob. |
| | `name` | the type | Needed only to tell two sources of one type apart. |
| `[scan]` | `max_candidates` | `50` | Most candidates shown to the judge per run; the rest wait for the next run. |
| | `max_per_session` | `12` | Most candidates from one session. |
| | `first_run` | `baseline` | `baseline` or `backfill` (see Quick start). |
| | `exclude` | `[]` | Globs on transcript paths to skip. |
| | `extra_destructive`, `extra_benign`, `extra_alarm` | `[]` | Extra pre-filter regexes (for example your own alert names). |
| `[judge]` | `backend` | `claude` | `claude`, `openai` or `command`. |
| | `model` | `sonnet` | Model name or alias for the backend. |
| | `timeout` | `900` | Seconds before the judge call is abandoned. |
| | `prompt_file` | built in | Replace the judging rubric. |
| | `base_url`, `api_key_env`, `json_mode` | | `openai` backend. `api_key_env` names an environment variable; keys never go in the file. |
| | `command` | | `command` backend: argv of a program that reads the prompt on stdin. |
| `[ledger]` | `dir` | (required) | The ledger directory. |
| | `order` | `severity` | `severity` or `newest`. |
| `[git]` | `enabled` | `true` | Commit if `ledger.dir` is a git repository. |
| | `push` | `false` | Push after committing. |
| | `expected_remote_url` | | Refuse to push if the remote has been repointed. |
| `[state]` | `file` | `~/.local/state/ai-incidents/state.json` | Run state. |
| | `seen_list` | | Optional plain-text list of judged Claude Code transcripts, for cleanup jobs. |
| `[privacy]` | `redact` | `true` | Mask secret-shaped strings before the judge and before the ledger. |
| `[hooks]` | `notify_cmd` | | Runs after a run that filed something. |
| | `on_success_cmd` | | Runs after every successful run, quiet ones included: a heartbeat. |
| | `on_failure_cmd` | | Runs after a failed run. |
### Commands and exit codes
| Command | Does |
|---|---|
| `ai-incidents run` | Scan, judge if there is anything to judge, write, commit, record. `--dry-run`, `--dry-run --with-judge`, `--backfill`, `--notify-cmd CMD`, `--no-git`, `--push` / `--no-push`. |
| `ai-incidents scan [--show]` | Show what the pre-filter finds. Reads only; records nothing. |
| `ai-incidents init --ledger DIR [--git]` | Write a starter config and create the ledger directory. |
| `ai-incidents reindex` | Re-rank `incidents.md` and rebuild `index.json` after hand edits. |
| `ai-incidents config` | Print the effective configuration. |
Exit codes: `0` success (a quiet run is a success), `1` the run failed (judge, git, or state
error), `2` bad usage or configuration, `3` another run holds the lock.
### Hooks
Hooks replace any built-in notifier. Each is a command line, split the way a shell would split it
but not run through one; wrap it in `sh -c '...'` if you want pipes. The run summary arrives on
stdin, and these variables are set: `AI_INCIDENTS_STATUS` (`ok` or `failed`),
`AI_INCIDENTS_HEADLINE`, `AI_INCIDENTS_FILED`, `AI_INCIDENTS_HIGH`, `AI_INCIDENTS_MEDIUM`,
`AI_INCIDENTS_LOW`, `AI_INCIDENTS_EXCLUDED`, `AI_INCIDENTS_REPORT`. A hook that fails is logged and
ignored.
```toml
[hooks]
notify_cmd = "curl -s -H 'Title: ai-incidents' --data-binary @- https://ntfy.sh/your-topic"
on_success_cmd = "curl -fsS -m 10 https://hc-ping.com/your-uuid"
```
### Choosing a judge
```toml
[judge] # default: the Claude Code CLI you already use
backend = "claude"
model = "sonnet"
[judge] # a local model through any OpenAI-compatible server
backend = "openai"
base_url = "http://localhost:11434/v1" # Ollama; llama.cpp's server is http://localhost:8080/v1
model = "qwen3:32b"
[judge] # anything that reads a prompt on stdin
backend = "command"
command = ["llm", "-m", "some-model"]
```
The judge must answer with a JSON object in the format the rubric describes. Larger models follow
it more reliably; a malformed answer fails the run safely (see [Failure modes](#failure-modes)).
## Permission envelope
The tool reads private transcripts, so what it may do is deliberately narrow, and enforced in
code rather than by convention:
- **Transcripts are read-only.** Claude Code JSONL files are opened for reading. opencode's SQLite
database is opened with `mode=ro` and `query_only`. (SQLite's WAL mode has every reader
coordinate through a `-shm` index file next to the database, which a reader may create or update;
that is lock bookkeeping, not data. For a database owned by another user, the tool opens it
`immutable=1` instead, so it never leaves a sidecar file that user cannot write.)
- **The judge only reads.** It never sees a transcript directly: it receives the pre-filtered,
redacted excerpts as text on stdin (never on the command line, where other local users could
read them) and answers with JSON. With the default backend, `claude -p` runs with
`--tools ""` (no built-in tools), `--strict-mcp-config` (no MCP servers), and
`--no-session-persistence` (its own session is not written back into your transcripts), in an
empty temporary directory. With the `openai` backend it is one HTTP request. The `command`
backend runs whatever you configure, so the envelope there is yours to keep.
- **The only writes are the ledger.** Every file write goes through one guard that allows exactly
the ledger directory and the state file (plus its lock, and the optional seen-list). Anything
else raises before a byte is written. The ledger text is rendered by the tool from validated,
single-line JSON fields; the model never chooses a path or writes markdown structure.
- **Git is narrow.** Commits name their files explicitly, so nothing else in the ledger repository
(staged or not) is swept in. Pushing is off by default; when on, it pushes the current branch
to its own name on the configured remote: no force, no tags, no detached HEAD, and optionally
only to an `expected_remote_url`. Git is never allowed to prompt.
- **Hooks are yours.** They run the commands you configure and are outside the envelope by
definition. Nothing from a transcript is ever put on a hook's command line.
The test suite checks these: a full run over both transcript formats must leave every file outside
the ledger and state unchanged, writes outside the guard must fail, the judge's argv must not
contain the candidates, and a commit must not include files the tool did not write.
## Privacy
Transcripts contain everything you and your agents did: code, file contents, command output, and
now and then a secret that should never have been printed. Know where they go:
- **Excerpts leave the machine for the judge.** Only the pre-filtered moments are sent (a few
hundred characters per turn, the flagged commands and failures, and the title and first line of
each existing ledger entry), not whole transcripts. They go to whichever model you configure. With the default
`claude` backend that is Anthropic, the same provider your Claude Code sessions already use;
opencode sessions may have run against a different provider, so sending them to Claude is a new
disclosure.
- **A local model keeps everything local.** Point the `openai` backend at llama.cpp, Ollama, vLLM
or LM Studio on your own hardware and no excerpt leaves the machine.
- **Redaction is best-effort.** Common token formats, private keys, `Authorization` headers, URL
credentials and `password=`-style assignments are masked before the judge sees them and again
before anything reaches the ledger. A bare password with nothing around it cannot be recognised.
The rubric also tells the judge never to copy a secret or a third party's name into its answer.
- **The ledger is private by default.** It describes your mistakes, your infrastructure and your
projects. Review it before you publish it; `examples/sample-ledger.md` shows what a scrubbed
excerpt looks like.
- `ai-incidents run --dry-run -v` prints the candidates exactly as they would be sent, without
sending them.
## Design
### Why it runs unattended
Nobody writes a postmortem for their own agent session. The session that caused the damage is
usually the one that cleaned it up, and by the next day the lesson survives only in a transcript
nobody will reread, until the transcript itself is deleted (Claude Code removes old transcripts
after `cleanupPeriodDays`, 30 by default). A recorder that depends on someone remembering to run it
has the same problem as the postmortem. So it runs on a timer, reads what was actually said and
done, and costs nothing on the nights when nothing happened.
### Why a model judges instead of rules
Rules are good at finding *candidate* moments and bad at deciding whether they mattered. The same
`git reset --hard` is routine cleanup in one session and the loss of a day's unpushed work in
another; `rm -rf` of a scratch directory and of a data directory look alike to a regex. Deciding
needs the surrounding conversation and the consequences, which is a judgement.
So there are two stages, each doing what it is good at. The **pre-filter** is deterministic, free,
and tuned for recall. It reads what sessions *said* (the agent admitting a mistake, the user
objecting, an alarm, the agent blaming someone else's code) and, just as important, what they
*did*: destructive commands, notable failures, and warnings printed by commands that exited 0.
Reading behaviour is not optional. The sweep this tool came from originally matched only
confessions, and on its first real test it missed all three incidents of that day, because none of
the sessions happened to say one of the magic phrases; one of them committed 14 repositories to
`main` from a command that exited 0 and announced the damage in a warning nobody read. The
**judge** is a model, tuned for precision: strict about what counts, told that a digest of
destructive commands is not an accusation, and told that confidently blaming an upstream project
for your own bug is an incident in its own right.
The pre-filter also acts as a gate. When there are no candidates, no model is loaded. An agent
that starts up only to discover there is no work still pays for the whole start-up, and a nightly
job that does that every night is the kind of unmetered cost this ledger exists to catch.
### Why exclusions are recorded
Every run report lists each candidate the judge excluded, with a one-line reason. Without that, the
bar for "incident" is invisible and cannot be argued with: you cannot tell a quiet week from a
judge that has become lax, or a noisy ledger from one that has become credulous. The exclusions are
where you notice the judge drifting, where you find a real incident it waved through, and where you
learn which pre-filter patterns only produce noise. They also make a quiet run a real result: "five
candidates, all routine, here is why" is a finding; silence is not.
### Severity is the cost
Severity is defined by what an incident *cost*, not by how alarming the mistake looked. **HIGH**
is data loss, an outage, or a real credential exposure. **MEDIUM** is wasted rework, a bad
decision pushed to a shared branch, or a debug spiral. **LOW** is a self-inflicted mess that was
cleaned up cheaply. The agent catching its own mistake before it cost anything is not an incident
at all. The ledger is ordered by severity, then date, because its reader wants the most expensive
lessons first; the chronology is in `reports/`.
### Failure modes
| What goes wrong | What happens |
|---|---|
| The judge fails: it times out, exits non-zero, hits a quota, or answers with prose instead of a verdict (`claude -p` exits 0 while printing a spend-limit message). | The answer is validated, not the exit code, so the run fails with exit 1 and records nothing for the candidate sessions. The next run shows them again. Clean sessions are still recorded. |
| The judge returns a malformed incident (no lesson, an unknown severity). | That incident is rejected and listed in the report under "Loose ends"; the rest of the verdict is used. Candidates it never mentions are listed too. |
| The pre-filter misses something. | Recall is bounded by what a session said or did in a way the patterns recognise. A wrong decision that involved no destructive command, no failure and no complaint is invisible. `extra_*` patterns let you widen it; the exclusions show you what it currently catches. |
| The judge invents or overstates detail. | It is told to judge only from the excerpts, and each entry links back to its sessions in the report. The ledger is plain markdown: correct it by hand and run `reindex`. |
| The same incident surfaces twice (a resumed session, two sessions about one mistake). | The judge sees the existing ledger and marks duplicates, and an entry whose title matches an existing one is never filed twice. A duplicate under a different title can still slip through; delete it by hand. |
| More candidates than the budget. | Whole sessions are deferred to the next run, never split; clean sessions later in the scan are still recorded. A backfill takes several runs. |
| Two runs overlap. | The second exits with code 3 without touching anything. |
| The push fails. | The ledger is already committed locally and the sessions recorded; the run exits 1, and the next run pushes. |
| A transcript is deleted before it is judged. | It is simply gone. Schedule runs more often than your transcript retention. If a cleanup job of your own deletes transcripts, point it at `seen_list` so it only removes what has been judged. |
| A secret in an unrecognised format. | It can reach the judge and, if the judge repeats it, the ledger. Keep the ledger private and review before publishing. |
## Compatibility
- **Claude Code** 2.x: transcripts under `~/.claude/projects/` (or `$CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR`), and the
`claude` CLI for the default judge, which needs a build with `--tools` and
`--no-session-persistence`. Tested with 2.1.
- **opencode** 1.x: the SQLite store (`opencode.db`, or `opencode-<channel>.db`) under
`~/.local/share/opencode/`. Tested on 1.18.22 or later. The older JSON-file storage is not read.
A port for opencode 2.x is planned.
- **Python** 3.11 to 3.13, on Linux and macOS.

# Security policy
## Reporting a vulnerability
Please report security problems privately by email to **holden@ssalomon.com**, not in a public
issue. Include what you found, how to reproduce it, and which version you tested. You will get an
acknowledgement within a few days.
## What counts
This tool reads private transcripts and writes to one directory, so the issues that matter most are:
- anything that makes it write outside the ledger directory and its own state file;
- anything that lets transcript content or a judge's answer reach the filesystem, a command line or
a shell other than as ledger text;
- any way it could modify a transcript or an opencode database;
- secrets surviving the redaction step in a common, recognisable format;
- the judge receiving tools, files or network access it should not have.
## What does not
- Content you configure the tool to send to a hosted model. That is the documented design; use a
local model if you do not want transcripts to leave the machine (see the README's privacy section).

# AI incidents
A curated excerpt from a real ledger kept by `ai-incidents`: five of its entries, with host names,
project names, people and infrastructure details generalized. The format is exactly what the tool
writes. Most severe first; newest first within a severity.
## Cleanup deleted the user's own agent sessions, unrecoverably, twice in one day · 2026-09-01 · HIGH
- **What:** cleaning up its own smoke-test sessions, the agent filtered a global session list by name and by time window and piped the result into a delete; the filter also matched the user's real sessions, including the one open in their terminal, and after reporting the damage it ran the same filter again later that day.
- **Cost:** at least five sessions destroyed with nothing recoverable; the user's active session was cut off mid-use and unrelated work was lost.
- **Lesson:** never choose what to delete by name or time window over a shared list; delete only what you can prove you created (a recorded ID list, a tagged prefix), and after a filter has deleted someone else's data once, redesign it before running it again.
## An hourly agent's cost, once measured: ~47.6 billion tokens a year · 2026-07-14 · HIGH
- **What:** an ingestion pipeline ran an unattended agent every hour; measured over a week, each run used about 5 million tokens, some ran past 200 turns, and 11 of 27 runs found no work at all.
- **Cost:** roughly 47.6 billion tokens a year, drawn from the same subscription quota as interactive work, so the bill was paid invisibly in rate-limit headroom.
- **Lesson:** gate an unattended agent behind a deterministic check so a model is loaded only when there is work, price the model to the work, and treat cadence as a cost multiplier.
## Deleted source data after mistaking its own bug for corruption · 2026-07-11 · HIGH
- **What:** decided a price-history file was corrupt ("905 missing trading days") and deleted it; the corruption was the agent's own validation bug, because a parquet round-trip had renamed the date column and broken its comparison.
- **Cost:** the file could not be fetched again (the free source returned nothing and the paid one was rate-limited), so the data loss stood.
- **Lesson:** never delete source data to exclude it; quarantine it or filter at read time, and check a corruption diagnosis against a known-good sample before acting on it.
## Committed 14 embedded git repositories to `main` with `git add -A` · 2026-07-14 · MEDIUM
- **What:** ran `git add -A && git commit && git push` in a worktree where a scheduled review job had left 14 throwaway clones; git staged each one as an embedded repository and the commit went to `main`, while printing `warning: adding embedded git repository` 14 times from a command that exited 0.
- **Cost:** `main` carried 14 broken submodule references that broke cloning until a follow-up commit removed them; it also exposed that the review job had been cloning into its own checkout on every run.
- **Lesson:** `git add -A` is not a review step: stage explicit paths anywhere a tool may have written, and read the warnings from commands that succeed.
## Monitoring went blind: an inline comment corrupted a metric value · 2026-07-14 · MEDIUM
- **What:** wrote `MaxAge=9d # comment` into a config file; a homegrown metrics generator read the comment as part of the value, and the metrics exporter rejected the whole file. The ready explanation, that the exporter was being strict about comments, was wrong.
- **Cost:** every job-health metric vanished from monitoring until it was caught in the same session, so any job failure in that window would have gone unnoticed.
- **Lesson:** keep comments off value lines in key=value files, test the parser against trailing content, and when a tool rejects your output, read what your own code wrote before blaming the tool.
## Recurring patterns
- **Matching by name or time window instead of an ID you own, before deleting or killing.** A loose match over a shared namespace (sessions, processes, files) eventually catches something that is not yours.

# AI-incidents run · 2026-07-19
## What the pre-filter found
- **claude-code:** 390 new session(s), 376 clean, 14 with candidates
- **Candidates:** 50
- **Judge:** claude CLI, model sonnet
## Confirmed incidents (1)
### Committed 14 embedded git repositories to `main` with `git add -A` · 2026-07-14 · MEDIUM
**Category:** destructive-action · **Sessions:** `a41c07e2` (claude-code, 2026-07-14)
Clears the bar: `main` carried 14 broken submodule references until a follow-up commit removed them, and the warning that proves it came from a command that exited 0.
## Excluded candidates (5)
- **C03** `5d2b9f10` (claude-code, 2026-07-15): `rm -f` of a previous attempt's own scratch files before writing a clean replacement. Own-scratch cleanup, not an incident.
- **C11, C12** `e8f41a77` (claude-code, 2026-07-17): two self-described mistakes during a test-suite reduction, both caught by the compiler and fixed before anything was committed. No cost survived.
- **C19** `0c9d3e55` (claude-code, 2026-07-16): a memory-leak diagnosis that ended up blaming an upstream project. Checked against the misattribution bar, but the session cited a specific, real upstream report and took no action on its earlier wrong theory. Not filed.
- **C27** `9b61aa04` (claude-code, 2026-07-17): a long library migration with several self-caught missteps, each verified back to a correct final state. Routine iteration.
*This is a curated excerpt of a real run report, generalized the same way as `sample-ledger.md`;
the candidate list at the end of a full report is omitted.*

"""The write side of the permission envelope.
Every file this tool writes goes through a ``WriteGuard``. The guard is built once per run from the
configuration and knows exactly which places may be written: the ledger directory, the state file
(and its lock), and the optional seen-list export. Anything else raises ``EnvelopeError`` before a
byte is written, so a bug, a hostile path in the config, or a judge that tries to smuggle a file
name into its verdict cannot turn this tool into a general-purpose writer.
The read side is simpler: transcripts are opened with ``open(..., "r")`` and SQLite ``mode=ro``,
and the judge is given text on stdin and has no tools at all. See the README's "Permission
envelope" section.

"""The judge: one model call, text in, JSON out, no tools.
The judge never touches the filesystem. It receives the rubric as a system prompt and the
candidates on stdin (never in argv, where other local users could read them with ``ps``), and it
answers with a JSON verdict. The verdict is validated here before anything is written: an exit code
of 0 is not evidence of an answer. ``claude -p`` exits 0 while printing "You've hit your spend
limit", and a local model can return prose. Either is a failed run, and a failed run records
nothing, so the next run shows the same candidates again.

* ``claude``: the Claude Code CLI in print mode, with every built-in tool and every MCP server
disabled and session persistence off (so the judge's own session is not swept next time).
* ``openai``: any OpenAI-compatible ``/chat/completions`` endpoint. This is the local-model path:
llama.cpp's server, Ollama, vLLM, LM Studio.

"""One run: scan, gate, judge, write, commit, record.
The order is what makes it safe to run unattended:
1. **Scan** every configured source. Read-only. Clean sessions are recorded as judged straight
away (they carry nothing a judge could file).
2. **Gate.** No candidates means no model call at all. A quiet night costs nothing.
3. **Judge** the candidates in one call. The answer must parse and validate, or the run fails.
4. **Write** the ledger, the run report, ``latest.md`` and ``index.json``, and nothing else.
5. **Commit** exactly those files, and push if configured.
6. **Record** the judged sessions as seen. Only now: if any earlier step failed, the next run sees
the same candidates again.

"""Deterministic pre-filter: find the moments in a session worth showing to the judge.
Nothing here calls a model. The pre-filter is tuned for recall, and it is cheap, so it can look at
every session; the judge is tuned for precision, and it is expensive, so it only sees what survives
this step.
A session produces candidates in three shapes:
* SNIPPET: somebody *said* something. The user corrected or blamed the agent, or the agent admitted
a mistake, raised an alarm, or blamed somebody else's code. The surrounding turns come with it.
* EVIDENCE: what a session that produced snippets actually *did*: its destructive commands and its
notable failures, attached to those snippets.
* DIGEST: nobody said anything, but the session ran something destructive or something notably
broke. The task, the commands and the failures are shown instead.
Recall cannot depend on the culprit choosing the right words. The worst incidents are often the
ones nobody narrates, so tool calls and tool output are read as well as conversation text.

You are the judge for an incident ledger. You are reading excerpts from one person's AI
coding-agent sessions. Your job is to decide which of the candidate moments below were **real
incidents caused by AI-generated work**, and to write each confirmed one up so that its lesson is
not lost.
You are this person's memory of their agents' mistakes. Nobody else writes this down. A miss is a
lesson lost; a false positive is noise that makes the ledger worth less. Be strict and be honest,
including about incidents caused by agents much like you.
You have no tools. Everything you may use is in this message. Judge only from the excerpts shown.
Do not invent detail beyond what they show.
## The candidates
A deterministic pre-filter found these moments. Each has an id like `C07` and comes in one of three
shapes:
- **SNIPPET**: somebody *said* something. The user corrected or blamed the agent, or the agent
admitted a mistake, raised an alarm, or blamed somebody else's code. You get the surrounding turns.
- **EVIDENCE**: the destructive commands and notable failures of a session that also produced
snippets. It carries the same session id as those snippets and is part of them: the snippets are
what was said, the evidence is what was done. When evidence shows a destructive command whose
consequence you can see, that IS concrete evidence. Do not hold out for a sentence in which
somebody admits to it.
- **DIGEST**: nobody confessed and nobody complained, but the session did something destructive or
something notably broke. You get the task, the commands, the failures and how the session ended.
The worst incidents are often the ones nobody narrates, so judge a digest on its evidence, not on
the absence of an apology. Equally, a digest is not an accusation: destructive commands are often
correct and intended (clearing scratch files, a deliberate revert, stopping something the user
asked to stop). If the commands were the right thing to do and nothing was harmed, it is not an
incident. Say so in one line.
## What counts
An **incident** is: AI-generated work caused a real problem.
- **data-loss**: data was deleted, overwritten or corrupted.
- **outage**: something that worked broke; a crash, a service down, an unplanned reboot.
- **credential-leak**: a real secret was exposed (printed to a transcript, committed, sent somewhere).
- **destructive-action**: a destructive or hard-to-reverse action on something that was not the
agent's to destroy (pushed to a shared branch, deleted someone else's work, rewrote history).
- **debug-spiral**: an AI decision sent the work into a long, expensive loop of fixing its own fallout;
over-engineering with the wrong tool belongs here.
- **unmetered-cost**: an agent or job burned money, tokens or quota that nobody was measuring.
- **misattribution**: see below.
- **other**: a real cost that fits none of the above.
**Misattribution is an incident in its own right.** Blaming a tool, library, upstream project, API
or "a known bug" for a problem the agent actually caused, and acting on that belief, is a footgun
even when nothing else breaks. It sends the human to debug, report or work around something that was
never broken; the real bug survives because nobody is looking for it any more; and it hides itself,
because a mistake that has been blamed on someone else is a mistake nobody will look for. The tell is
a fix that works around someone else's code instead of correcting the agent's own: a pin to an old
version, a "workaround for <library> bug" comment, a retry loop around a call made wrongly, a
monkey-patch, an issue filed upstream. It is **not** misattribution if the upstream bug was real, and
it is not misattribution to be uncertain out loud. The footgun is confident, acted-upon blame that
turns out to be wrong.
**Not** an incident: routine iteration; the user changing their mind; a preemptive "don't touch X";
a planned or expected revert; the agent catching its own mistake before it cost anything.
The bar is a **cost**: something was actually lost, broken, leaked or wasted. Better one solid
incident than five weak ones.
## Severity is the cost
- **HIGH**: data loss, an outage, or a real credential exposure.
- **MEDIUM**: wasted rework, a bad decision pushed to a shared branch, a debug spiral.
- **LOW**: a self-inflicted mess, cleaned up cheaply.
## Duplicates
The same incident often shows up in several candidates, and may already be in the ledger (listed
below with ids like `E03`). Check by substance, not by wording. Never file an incident that is
already in the ledger; exclude those candidates with `duplicate_of` set to the ledger id.
## Recurring patterns
If, and only if, this run turns up a pattern that now spans three or more incidents (counting the
ledger), add one line describing it to `patterns`. Otherwise leave `patterns` empty.
## Answer format
Answer with a single JSON object and nothing else: no prose before or after it, no code fence.
Every candidate id must appear exactly once, either in an incident's `candidates` or in an
`excluded` entry.
{
"incidents": [
{
"title": "short, specific title (under 100 characters)",
"date": "YYYY-MM-DD: the date of the incident from the candidate, not today",
"severity": "HIGH | MEDIUM | LOW",
"category": "data-loss | outage | credential-leak | destructive-action | debug-spiral | unmetered-cost | misattribution | other",
"what": "one sentence: what the agent did",
"cost": "one sentence: what it actually cost",
"lesson": "one actionable sentence: how not to repeat it",
"candidates": ["C03", "C04"],
"why": "one line: why it cleared the bar"
}
],
"excluded": [
{"candidates": ["C01", "C02"], "reason": "one line: why it did not clear the bar", "duplicate_of": ""}
],
"patterns": []
}
Never copy a secret, password, token or key into your answer, even when an excerpt shows one.
Describe it ("the database password") instead. Refer to people other than the user by role, not
by name.

"""Which sessions have already been judged.
A session is recorded as *seen* only once its candidates can no longer be lost:
* a session the pre-filter found clean is seen immediately (it has nothing a judge could file);
* a session with candidates is seen only after the judge's verdict has been written to the ledger
(and committed, when git is configured). If the judge fails, times out, hits a quota, or returns
something that is not a valid verdict, nothing is recorded and the next run shows it again.
Keys include size and modification time (or opencode's ``time_updated``), so a session that grows
after it was judged is looked at again.
