Run report: jira-task-reviewer — df864d2f-3115-4f06-b3c2-24456615eed0

Run snapshot

  • When: 2026-07-18 13:40:56Z → 14:01:25Z for the review itself; the session then continued under user direction to 15:33Z.
  • cwd / OS: C:\Users\vboxuser\skill-dev\JST-worktrees\worktree-JST-122Windows (PowerShell dispatch path, confirmed by statuscheck platform row: os=windows — PowerShell 7 + acli + gh + win/ ports present).
  • Branch: feature/JST-122-conversation-feature-report (parent worktree).
  • Plugin version that ran: 0.5.0-lab.2 (from the Base-directory line).
  • Arguments: none (bare invocation; $ARGUMENTS empty).
  • Invocations in session: 1.
  • Outcome: The reviewer ran to completion — single-step track, PR #111 APPROVED, verdict posted to GitHub + Jira, status left for GitHub-for-Jira. It finished and reported at 14:01 (S-APPROVED). Everything after 14:13 is a user-commandeered pivot into developing/fixing the JST-122 feature itself (5 commits pushed to the reviewed branch) — outside the reviewer skill.

Notes: the metrics are scoped to the reviewer skill's own turns (via attributionSkill), so they cover the review phase (≈13:40–14:01), not the later user-driven development. TOKENS_IN (54) looks tiny only because cache-read (2.4M) dominates on a long-context run — normal, not an anomaly. Elapsed is span, not compute time. There is no cost field in the transcript.

Compliance walk

Scope note: the compliance walk judges the review phase, which is the only part where jira-task-reviewer was the acting skill. Everything from the user's 14:13 interjection onward is a separate, user-directed activity (see Divergences in detail).

Divergences in detail

The reviewer's APPROVE was invalidated by later same-session commits to the reviewed PR

  • What the prose says: the reviewer reviews <ISSUE-KEY> "and nothing else. When you have finished it, stop and report." The skill has no step that edits, commits, or pushes code — its whole contract is review + record a verdict ("Never merges anything"; allowed-tools: Bash, Read, Grep, Glob — note: no Write/Edit).
  • What happened: the review completed cleanly and APPROVED PR #111 at 14:01:25 (f57887c1). Then, starting at the user's 14:13 interjection, the session pivoted: the user ran the JST-122 feature's own pipeline, found runtime bugs, and directed a series of fixes/enhancements. The agent edited feature_report.ps1 and collect_feature.ps1, updated docs, added report sections and mermaid pie charts, and committed + pushed five times to feature/JST-122-conversation-feature-report (14:27 push, then commits d83a3f7, 7256d45, efd2f38, 69f7e63) — all part of PR #111.
  • Consequence: PR #111 now contains substantial code the reviewer never reviewed; the posted APPROVED verdict is stale — it approved a diff of 8 files/+771 that was subsequently rewritten by five more commits.
  • Likely why: the user commandeered the session for a different job after the skill run had already finished. Per the debugger's own caveat, "an agent obeying the user over the skill is not a divergence." This is user override, not a jira-task-reviewer compliance defect — the skill correctly ran to completion and stopped first.
  • Suggested fix: no skill change. The reviewer did its job and reported; what followed is the user's prerogative. Worth flagging only as an operational caution for the humans: a reviewer session that then edits and pushes to the PR it just approved leaves an approval that no longer matches the code, and a fresh reviewer re-run against the final diff would be the clean way to re-bless PR #111. (This run happens also to be the one whose transcript is the data source for the very feature it was reviewing — a self-referential setup, not a skill problem.)

All three reviewer-scoped errors were self-inflicted syntax/plumbing in the agent's own verification harness (it chose to run the code live as part of the Correctness dimension), each recovered within one retry with no residue and no effect on the verdict. No skill script or prescribed command failed.

Helper scripts worth keeping

What the agent builtBorn at (uuid)Worked?Suggested home
Synthetic feature-report@1/@2 JSON fixtures + a multi-form input-mode test matrix for feature_report.ps1 (file / process-pipe / native-pipe / guards)9630f31b, 7f4da2fc, 76b8d439, 1da1528ayesNone for jira-task-reviewer. These belong to the JST-122 feature (conversation-debugger) under review, not to the reviewer skill — run-specific, not worth promoting into the reviewer's shared scripts. If anything they argue for a test fixture living beside collect_feature.ps1/feature_report.ps1, which is a separate concern from this skill.

Verdict

Within its own scope the run is a clean, high-compliance single-step review: correct Windows dispatch, faithful step-1→6 walk, idempotency check, full-diff read, an APPROVE posted to both GitHub and Jira via --body-file, status left for the automation, and a correct S-APPROVED chat report — the agent even ran the code end-to-end to back its correctness call. The one thing to act on is operational, not a code change: after the review finished, the same session was redirected by the user into fixing and pushing five commits onto the very PR it had just approved, so the standing APPROVED verdict on PR #111 is now stale and the feature should get a fresh reviewer pass against its final diff. That is user override of a completed run, so the finding lands on the humans/workflow, not on jira-task-reviewer's prose — the skill text needs no fix here.
