/keel:ci-check

Live progress — stamp this run (required)

So this run shows live on keel-visual's board, record it with keel activity as you go. This command's phases are: poll → report. Pick one stable --run-id for the whole run (e.g. ci-check-<issue-or-pr>):

• Right now, before the work below, stamp the first phase: keel activity .keel/project.yaml --root . --write --command ci-check --run-id "$RUN" --phase poll
• Re-run with the next --phase (report, …) as you advance through the flow.
• At the end: keel activity .keel/project.yaml --root . --run-id "$RUN" --done

Treat this like any other contractual step — do not skip it. The one allowed exception is a core too old to ship keel activity (keel < 1.6.0): then skip it silently and never block the command.

Command step evidence

Every numbered step in this command is contractual. Complete the step, record the evidence it asks for, or explicitly mark it N/A — <reason> before moving on. If a step has an external side effect such as a GitHub comment, issue, review, report, branch, or PR, the side effect must be posted or written through the selected transport and cited in the final summary. Never silently skip a step because the runtime, agent, or prompt feels obvious.

Project-neutral CI status check. Reads .keel/project.yaml (ci_workflows, base_branch) via the keel CLI — the workflow names and branch are never hardcoded here. It inspects the latest CI run, and when that run failed it pulls the failing log, reads the offending source, and proposes exactly one fix. It is read-only: it never edits code, pushes, re-kicks, or merges.

All user-facing diagnoses MUST be written in English; free-form chat may be in any language.

Step 0 — orient + runtime gate

keel validate .keel/project.yaml --root .
keel plan     .keel/project.yaml --root .     # read base_branch, ci_workflows

CI status lives behind the host's Actions/checks API, which is reached through gh (or its MCP equivalent). Detect availability first:

• If a PR is in scope, prefer keel ship .keel/project.yaml --root . --pr <N> for the CI rollup + merge decision, falling back to gh pr checks <N> for per-workflow detail across the project's ci_workflows.
• If neither gh nor an MCP checks-read path is reachable in this runtime, exit cleanly with a single line saying CI data requires the host CLI and is unavailable in this sandbox (re-run from a local checkout with the CLI installed, or use the host's web UI). Do not error or partial-run — surfacing nothing here advances nothing.

Step 1 — latest run(s)

List the most recent runs (a small limit, e.g. the last 3) across the project's ci_workflows, capturing per run: id, status, conclusion, workflow name, head branch, and created-at. The newest run is the one under analysis; the prior two give context for "did this just start failing?".

Step 2 — if the latest run failed

1. Pull the failing job's log tail (the last screenful of --log-failed, not the whole log) for the newest failing run.
2. Identify the failing job and step name.
3. Read the source file the failure points at (use the file:line the tool output carries where it has one).
4. Classify the failure: a real code/test failure vs. a flake (intermittent; cross-check with the prior runs from Step 1) vs. infra/quota (runner, network, rate-limit, credentials).
5. Diagnose the root cause in 2–4 sentences.
6. Propose ONE specific fix — describe it concretely (file/line-targeted). Do not apply it automatically.

Step 3 — if all runs passed

Print a single green line: CI is green, with the latest run's workflow name, branch, and time.

Step 4 — recommend the next action

Route by the Step 2 classification — never merge here:

• Transient / flake → re-kick (a fresh push or the host's re-run), and consider /keel:flake-audit if it recurs.
• Real failure → apply the proposed fix, then run /keel:review-cycle (self-review + independent reviewers) and re-check; the fix is not "done" until every reviewer is clear of blockers AND CI is green. Land it through /keel:ship (window + lock + review), never by a direct merge from here.
• Infra / quota → escalate; this is not a code fix.

Stop conditions / invariants

• Read-only — propose a fix, never apply, push, re-kick, or merge.
• Deterministic for identical CI state.
• Fail-soft — a missing CLI degrades to the Step 0 clean-exit note, not a crash.
