## Questions and conclusions
The Assistant is discouraged from asking you a question before it has tried to
find the answer. If the model attempts to ask without having attempted any
tool call, the attempt is blocked and it is pushed to look first.
The gate is bounded rather than absolute. It allows at most two blocks per
turn, after which the question goes through. A model that genuinely cannot
proceed without input is not trapped in a loop, and any real tool attempt
satisfies the gate immediately.
The model may ask for information when that is the useful next step, including
on the first turn. It may repeat an evidence read or conclude with uncertainty.

## Grounded execution
Several guardrails exist to keep the model's claims tied to evidence it
actually gathered.
The model interprets evidence and decides which investigation steps are useful.
Prompts tell it to treat infrastructure names, labels, logs and other collected
values as untrusted data, and to distinguish observation from inference.
Neither prompt compliance nor the presence of a tool call proves a conclusion.
The state machine supplies the structural half. A write moves the session into
verification, and the Assistant cannot deliver a final answer about that write
until it has read something afterwards.
The prompts supply the rest. Instructions repeated across the agentic prompts
tell the model to treat infrastructure names, labels, logs, and other
collected values as untrusted data rather than as instructions, and not to
invent evidence, root cause, verification, remediation, or a claim that an
action was taken.
Prompt instructions are the weaker of the two, which is exactly why the
verification requirement lives in code instead. Where a guarantee needs to
hold, it is enforced structurally.
`pulse_control` prepares a canonical action plan. Its result retains the plan's
risk, policy and preflight context and explicitly states that execution was not
requested. Approval and execution remain separate governed operations.
`pulse_query` with `action=action` and the exact `action_id` reads the persisted
action decisions and outcome, including independent verification provenance.
Cached inventory and an incomplete resource timeline cannot establish that an
action was never approved or run. Recorded verification describes its named
postcondition at its observation time, not the resource's current health.

# Pulse Assistant safety architecture
The state machine that governs what the Pulse Assistant is allowed to do
during a chat session, the tool classification it runs on, and the invariants
it holds.
The point of this machine is structural. Prompt wording can be argued with by
a model, and drifts as prompts are edited. These rules are enforced in code,
in `internal/ai/chat/fsm.go`, so neither a model nor a future prompt change
can talk its way past them.
Pulse enforces authority at the shared tool and action boundaries. The model
owns interpretation, investigation and action judgment within those boundaries.
A sequence of tool calls cannot establish that a diagnosis is correct.
## Tool kinds
Every tool call is classified before it runs.
Every tool call uses the shared `agentcapabilities` classification.
| Kind | Meaning |
|---|---|
| `resolve` | Discovery and query tools that find resources |
| `read` | Read-only tools such as logs, metrics, status, and config |
| `write` | Mutating tools such as restart, stop, start, delete, and file write |
| `read` | Read-only tools such as logs, metrics, status and config |
| `write` | Tools that change Pulse state or infrastructure through governed operations |
| `user_input` | Interactive tools that ask you something |
Classification is `ClassifyToolCall`, which delegates to the shared
`agentcapabilities` classifier so the Assistant and the rest of the agent
surface agree on what counts as a write.
`ClassifyToolCall` delegates to the shared classifier. A write classification
is not proof that infrastructure executed or that an action succeeded.
Canonical planning itself can persist Pulse state without changing a resource.
## States
## Enforced authority
A session starts in `RESOLVING` and moves between four states.
Execution profiles and tool permissions limit the capabilities available to a
run. The canonical action lifecycle validates the target, capability, parameters,
actor and current policy. It persists the action plan and requires the applicable
approval before execution. The model cannot grant itself permission by describing
a change as safe or by performing an unrelated read first.
| State | What it means |
|---|---|
| `RESOLVING` | No validated target yet, so resources must be discovered first |
| `READING` | A target is established and querying is allowed |
| `WRITING` | Transitional, entered around a mutation |
| `VERIFYING` | A write happened and evidence has not been gathered since |
Turn, evidence and cost budgets remain explicit bounds. Scheduling, tenant and
actor identity, idempotency and execution verification belong to their owning
services. They do not infer the quality or completeness of a diagnosis.
Transitions on a successful tool call are as follows.
## Evidence and outcomes
- A `resolve` or `read` in `RESOLVING` moves the session to `READING`.
- A `write` from any state moves the session to `VERIFYING`, records the tool
and timestamp, and clears the read-after-write flag.
- A `resolve` or `read` while in `VERIFYING` sets read-after-write, which is
what satisfies the verification requirement.
- A `user_input` call does not advance state at all, because asking you a
question is neither discovery nor verification.
A plan is an intended change. An approval is an authorization decision. An
execution receipt reports what the executor did. Independent verification
establishes the recorded postcondition through a separate observer at a named
time. These facts remain distinct even when one action record links them.
`CompleteVerification` returns a verified session from `VERIFYING` to
`READING` so further writes become possible.
Assistant can read the canonical action record with `pulse_query action=action`
and its exact `action_id`. The result retains plan context, recorded decisions
and `ActionResultV2` provenance. Missing records or missing access remain unknown.
A cached resource status or absent timeline entry cannot negate an execution
receipt. A successful execution alone does not prove that the original problem
was resolved.
## The invariants
## Model responsibility and limits
**No writing without a validated target.** A `write` attempted in `RESOLVING`
is blocked. The model must establish what it is acting on before it acts.
The model chooses when to read, ask, plan or conclude within the available
capabilities and explicit budgets. Assistant does not require an unrelated read
after every write, infer verification from a call sequence, or rewrite saved
answers because they contain lifecycle words. Model conclusions can still be
wrong. Regression tests, real-model qualification and independent observations
are needed to assess useful diagnosis and verified customer outcomes.
**No writing again until the last write is verified.** A `write` attempted in
`VERIFYING` is blocked until a read or resolve has run since the write.
**No final answer about an unverified change.** `CanFinalAnswer` refuses while
the session is in `VERIFYING` with no read-after-write. The Assistant cannot
tell you it restarted something and then decline to look at whether the
restart worked.
**Repeated attempts do not wear the gate down.** Consecutive blocked writes in
`VERIFYING` increment a counter, and that counter is telemetry only. There is
no attempt threshold after which the verification requirement is waived.
**Reads are never blocked.** No state blocks a `read`, `resolve`, or
`user_input`. The machine constrains mutation and the claims made about
mutation, not information gathering.
## Blocked calls and recovery
A blocked call returns an `FSMBlockedError` carrying the state, the tool, the
tool kind, a reason, and a recoverable flag. It surfaces to the model with the
stable code `ErrCodeFSMBlocked` rather than as prose, so the model can branch
on the code.
Blocks are recoverable rather than terminal. The session tracks a pending
recovery per blocked operation, and a later successful call of the same tool
clears it. Pending recoveries expire after ten minutes.
## Resetting
`Reset` returns the session to `RESOLVING` and clears all tracking, which is
what a full session clear does.
`ResetKeepProgress` is the softer variant used when context is cleared but
pinned items are kept. It drops verification tracking and moves a `VERIFYING`
session back to `READING`, without discarding that a target was established.
Note that `WroteThisEpisode` means "wrote at all during this session" rather
than "wrote during the current verification cycle", and `CompleteVerification`
deliberately leaves it set.
The wider Patrol and Assistant redesign remains under qualification. Local
fixture results do not establish reliability across customer environments.

### Canonical planning and model-owned continuation, 2026-09-07
This is the active implementation slice after the typed-runner handoff. The
runner and clock-evidence change is committed as `2a7019b0fa02587446e55af3838603d1c6924dba`
in PR #1955, merged as `62f6931c1fc2e46511876139ea20904752ea208c`
on 2026-09-07 at 11:29 UTC. Its worker, disposable VM and browser proof is
complete, and the local default branch includes the merge. Its historical proof
does not qualify the changes below.
Required boundaries (the independent continuation removal is being qualified
first, followed by canonical planning and linked progression):
1. Expose current executor-owned readiness beside canonical capability schemas.
Recheck admission inside the canonical planner. Unknown readiness stays
unknown and no catalog lookup grants execution authority.
2. Persist a canonical action plan during the proposal tool call and return its
exact identity or refusal to the model. Remove the request-local proposal
fingerprint, ambiguity and failed-attempt judgment machine. Keep trusted
finding/investigation identity, sensitive-parameter refusal and canonical
idempotency. Classify plan persistence as a Pulse-state write, with only that
named write permitted to the investigation profile.
3. Keep policy-authorized progression separate from planning. Continue the same
action reference through investigation, Assistant, decision and independently
verified outcome. A provider failure cannot erase a persisted action or
convert it into executed recovery.
4. Remove generic resolve/write/verify gating, semantic lifecycle-request
detection and first-tool-before-question counters. Remove forced completion
based on proposal acceptance, successful writes or failed-tool counts.
Preserve explicit run/evidence/spend budgets, cancellation, invocation policy,
canonical target binding and independent action verification.
5. Qualify expected refusals against scenario-owned truth without permitting
unexpected failures. Mechanical keyword/count checks are not semantic
diagnosis proof. Run affected regression and race suites on the worker, then
inspect actual real-model conclusions and independent lab outcomes.
The final-build interaction matrix covers `/patrol`, contextual Assistant and
exact `/actions?action=...` links at 1440x1000, 900x1000 and 390x1000. Exercise
unknown cause and unavailable execution, pending approval, rejected and completed
actions, retained provider failure, attached context, new/existing sessions,
expanded tool evidence, reload, keyboard focus, Escape, outside dismissal,
scrolling and focus return. Inspect pixels and the persisted transcript after
the last source change. Record model, source hashes, permission posture, known
faults and healthy controls, latency, cost limits, action IDs and cleanup.
Required negative regressions include readiness loss between lookup and plan,
same-plan replay without a duplicate action, conflicting requests without
erasing an existing plan, provider failure after persistence, a valid no-action
conclusion after refusal, and unchanged tenant/control/approval restrictions.
Live qualification must include healthy, unhealthy, dependency, missing-access,
storage-or-backup, approved and rejected cases. Existing passes are historical
until their affected contracts are requalified. The subscription refusal remains
untouched. Wider rollout still requires independent volunteered environments.
Measurement interpretation is explicit: the previously recorded 127 paid
installations, 71 Patrol-enabled installations and 23 Assistant users measure
adoption. Fourteen verified resolutions from one installation do not establish
a population success rate. Useful-diagnosis, false-alarm, missed-problem and
end-to-end latency population baselines are unknown. Named lab observations
and reviewed action postconditions provide local evidence with their own
denominators, never substitutes for those missing population measurements.
### Continuation removal in progress, 2026-09-07
The first independent source slice removes the generic Assistant workflow
state machine, semantic lifecycle-request correction, first-read-before-question
counter, repeated-call counter and three-error forced stop. It also removes
inferred self-correction counters. Explicit budgets, cancellation, canonical
invocation/target policy and approval/execution verification are retained.
Preparing a plan leaves investigation tools available and never creates a
synthetic verification episode. Streamed prose is preserved in saved history.
The first worker compile exposed three leftover references in tests and one
unused local variable. These were repaired. The next package run was explicitly
aborted after its old interaction corpus waited for an unanswered first-turn
question. Its stack confirmed `executeQuestionTool`, not a runtime deadlock.
That scenario now supplies an answer through `Service.AnswerQuestion` and has a
10-second context deadline. Neither failed attempt counts as qualification.
The fresh chat/tools package run, current-build real-model proof and browser
matrix are still pending. Canonical planning in the tool turn and the remaining
live scenario matrix are not implemented by this slice.
Preliminary real-model evidence from the first continuation build is not final
qualification. Gemini session `3a64ec04-fdd4-491c-a160-eab905554c02` selected the
canonical VM, attempted planning, received the actual missing-runner refusal and
explained it without claiming execution. The run took 7.813 seconds and cost
$0.017526 (21,618 input and 350 output tokens). A proof-script session read used
the wrong URL suffix, then recovered `/messages` without repeating inference.
The disposable VM plan in session `f778f25e-ddce-4b35-9563-b791134cf26d` took
9.552 seconds and remained pending approval without a synthetic verification
turn. Its prose nevertheless implied that approval would automatically execute
the admin-class VM action. Actual Actions UI requires a separate Run for this
class. The typed control result only said Pulse owned the remaining workflow.
It now returns the complete canonical plan, an exact action URL and explicit
`execution_requested: false`, with factual separation of approval, execution
and independently recorded outcome. This is a tool-context correction, not a
harness rule judging or rewriting the model's answer.
The first rejected-state browser check also failed because the local embedded
frontend directory copied into that build predated the current frontend source.
The browser showed the rejected action in History but lacked the current review
header. Rebuild embedded assets from the exported source before repeating the
entire affected matrix. This packaging failure is not counted as a UI pass.
Action `act_268983bb9d1f1705c9fd871419ddcf73` was rejected without execution,
VM110 stayed stopped, both temporary services and tokens were removed, and
read-only control was restored. Final-source proof remains pending.
The second bundled build bound 4,843 source/module/frontend files and passed
chat/tools race suites plus action lifecycle regression. Its missing-runner
session `bd322787-3c1d-450b-82c1-7129e3ac0298` explained the refusal in 8.795
seconds. Saved-history browser inspection found another real semantic defect:
the canonical plan call was labelled `run command`, and backend progress called
it execution. The shared tool presentation and live progress now explicitly
identify preparation of an action plan. Permission classification is unchanged.
This source change requires fresh build and browser proof before landing.
Two browser-script assumptions were also corrected without changing the
product: Assistant is explicitly reopened after reload, and the full-width
mobile panel is dismissed through its close control or Escape because no
backdrop pixels are exposed. Desktop backdrop dismissal and keyboard focus
return remain applicable checks. Script failures do not count as passes.
#### Rejected local qualification, final continuation source r4
Binary `ed9aba14161fba582ab39ec129969f8ffb49a84d49bf0f48648736e80a713dd8`
matched 4,843 source/module/frontend files. Worker chat race tests passed in
13.757 seconds, both tool-presentation files passed 62 tests and the frontend
build passed. An earlier repeated build was rejected because a transfer put six
changed files under a nested directory. Byte comparisons found that mismatch
before installation, and the duplicate files were removed after correct transfer.
Missing-runner session `dbf9e9f2-e923-46de-aef9-b3a44aef4fb2` took 12.763
seconds, returned the actual planning refusal and created no action. Saved
history at `/patrol` rendered the plan attempt accurately at 1440x1000,
900x1000 and 390x1000. Expanded evidence, keyboard opening, Escape/focus return,
reopening, reload and applicable backdrop/close dismissal passed.
Session `e29a3169-475d-46d9-ac4a-2f7547cb1cc1` prepared action
`act_3df7160a0611c2628fbbeca8099b681e` in 8.563 seconds. Its rejection caused
no execution, independently checked through Proxmox. Assistant explained the
rejection in 5.861 seconds and created no further action. When explicitly asked
again, it prepared `act_b8a46526da0b24adf6c0c6af195e88cb` in 5.158 seconds.
The latter was approved, executed and independently verified running. Actions
review passed pending, rejected and completed states at all three widths,
including expanded policy, observer and delivery details, dismissal and reload.
The Assistant continuation **failed**. Asked for the completed action's outcome,
it queried cached resource inventory and the resource timeline, then stated
that the action was never approved or executed and the VM had remained offline.
The canonical action record and independent Proxmox observer contradicted that
claim. The absence of a current action-audit read capability was a real shared
evidence-access gap. Passing execution and browser assertions did not qualify
that model conclusion. The response took 7.992 seconds.
The next source revision adds `pulse_query action=action` with an exact
`action_id`. It reads the tenant-pinned canonical audit, retaining full plan
risk/context and canonical `ActionResultV2` observation provenance, while
excluding request parameters, credential bindings and raw driver output. Tool
context names the difference between recorded action outcome, inventory and
incomplete resource history. The model owns whether and how to investigate
those facts. Generic progress no longer infers infrastructure execution from
a write classification. Requalify the entire affected continuation matrix.
Restoration action `act_be3a853728b4e872ea44b7f179ebe22f` independently
verified VM110 stopped. Both temporary services, credentials and the reverse
SSH tunnel were removed. Read-only control was restored and the production
agent was unchanged. Receipts and failed transcripts remain in workspace
`tmp/patrol-planning-continuation/vm-transaction-r4-outcome-access-failure.json`.
#### Action outcome access qualification, r5
Binary `6854b7155caafd289cd7f2ff1ad975f952e2f9204e870f90c0793c0dc5f1a65a`
matched 4,845 source/module/frontend files. Chat race proof passed in 13.848
seconds. The tools race suite passed in 62.414 seconds after a new fixture was
corrected to include its required actor identity. Final action-read regression
passed after the recorded-decision projection was added. Both presentation
files passed 63 tests, and the frontend build passed.
The previously failed session read the canonical completed action and its
independent observer evidence correctly in 6.972 seconds, without creating an
action. A fresh missing-runner session
`211cbaa5-fbd3-49b5-b622-8d7f416b35d2` returned the actual refusal in 11.787
seconds. Fresh VM session `4bb71619-a39d-475f-ad2e-5996417cc3c6` took 12.074
seconds to prepare `act_43dd318fa8577d79167a6f66b2460907`, 8.799 seconds to
explain its recorded rejection, 7.712 seconds to prepare the explicitly requested
replacement `act_9bdd65533a8c0d1e526845012a931b10`, and 5.965 seconds to explain
its approved, executed and independently confirmed running outcome. The latter
two explanation turns chose the canonical action query. Neither explanation
created another plan. These are five named successful model turns plus one
retrospective outcome read, not population success or latency estimates.
Restoration `act_31ea9abb7591c83f466055a4eacd5abe` independently confirmed
VM110 stopped. Both fixture services and tokens, the reverse tunnel and the
temporary control-level change were restored. This proves local execution and
model continuation for this bounded VM fixture only.
The saved-history browser pass exposed clipped inline action URLs at 390 pixels.
The shared Assistant markdown styling now wraps inline code, and canonical plan
and outcome tool cards expose a native `Review action` link derived from their
bound action ID rather than a model-authored destination. Opening it closes the
Assistant overlay before Actions review. This frontend-only correction requires
fresh browser qualification. It does not change the already checked model or
backend source. Existing sessions remain available through Recent Assistant
sessions after reload. The browser receipt must explicitly resume and re-read
that saved session, rather than count the transient empty bootstrap as a pass.
#### Final Assistant presentation proof, r6
The final bundled binary is
`db840916eb4adec3c8c0d916bda4dd7d7ce7588ed5fc9c4be4ba9f8d1a1584d4`.
Its manifest binds 4,845 source/module/frontend files. Compared with r5, only
`MessageItem.tsx`, `ToolExecutionBlock.tsx` and `toolPresentation.ts` changed.
Model-facing Go source is byte-identical to the r5 real-model and disposable-VM
proof. Final targeted frontend verification passed 292 tests in four files,
and the final bundled frontend build passed. A lint attempt against a plain
source export failed because the planning-docs check requires Git. It is not a
passing hook receipt. Landing hooks must run against the exact staged tree in
a real worker checkout.
At `/patrol`, the missing-runner and verified-VM sessions were reopened from
Recent Assistant sessions at 1440x1000, 900x1000 and 390x1000. The browser
verified the exact session read on initial resume and again after reload,
expanded every tool card, scrolled the saved conversation and inspected actual
pixels. Inline action identifiers and URLs now wrap within the mobile message
area. Keyboard launch, Escape and focus return, reopening, desktop backdrop
dismissal and mobile close dismissal passed. The verified-VM native `Review
action` link closed Assistant and opened the exact completed action review at
all three widths. The browser waits for the dialog opening animation before
capturing its pixels. Earlier captures taken mid-animation are not evidence of
a stable rendered state.
The script and screenshot receipts are retained under workspace
`tmp/patrol-planning-continuation/assistant-browser`, with labels
`no-runner-r6` and `verified-vm-r6`. The temporary VM fixture remains stopped,
its credentials and services removed, and development control remains read-only.
This closes the affected Assistant continuation and presentation slice only.
Patrol canonical planning during the model turn, proposal-capture retirement,
request identity binding and the complete fresh diagnostic scenario matrix
remain required work. The subscription-provider refusal remains preserved.
No population reliability estimate or production-wide readiness follows from
this one-maintainer fixture.
Final r6 action-review regression also passed the rejected start, completed
start and completed restoration-stop deep links at all three widths. Policy,
independent observer and delivery disclosures, nested scrolling, keyboard
activation, Escape, explicit close and persisted reload were exercised.
The first exact-tree landing hook rejected stale public architecture claims
about the removed look-before-asking counter. Both Assistant architecture pages
and their shipped mirrors now describe the canonical permission and evidence
boundaries. The corresponding drift test retains the real tool-kind and
concurrency contracts and removes the retired state-machine checks. Playwright
opened `/docs/ASSISTANT_SAFETY` and `/docs/ASSISTANT_ARCHITECTURE` against the
current Vite build at 1440x1000 and 390x1000, checked linked navigation, reload,
end-of-document scrolling, actual pixels and absence of horizontal overflow.
Receipts are in `tmp/patrol-planning-continuation/docs-browser`. The pinned
worker formatter also restored indentation in an unchanged preflight helper.
That formatting-only difference does not change the qualified runtime behavior.

The chat surface must echo user messages before network/session creation finishes and must not render Pulse-owned explore or internal workflow status cards as assistant output. Generic read/write sequences, proposal acceptance, successful-call counts and failed-call streaks must not stand in for diagnosis, verified recovery or action judgment. Saved history preserves the assistant prose actually streamed.",

### Advertised lifecycle actions are submitted, never narrated
### Model-owned continuation and canonical action authority
When an operator asks the Assistant to perform a lifecycle action (start,
stop, shutdown, reboot/restart) and a canonical resource the session has
resolved advertises that capability, the Assistant submits `pulse_control`
for each target and lets the shared action lifecycle decide availability
through planning, approval, execution, and verification. It may report a
limitation only from a tool result in the current turn; an assumed
prerequisite (QEMU guest agent, "discovery binding", "session state") or a
manual `qm`/`pct` instruction for an action Pulse offers is a contract
violation (GitHub issue #1782). Three structural guarantees enforce this:
Assistant chooses whether further evidence, clarification or a governed action
is useful from the request and current evidence. Lifecycle words in user prose
are not an instruction parser. No tool-count or read/write sequence decides
whether the answer is acceptable. The runtime preserves exactly the assistant
prose it streamed, including uncertainty or a no-action conclusion. It never
replaces that saved answer with a provider-only correction.
- `pulse_control` binds its `resource_id` to the canonical unified resource.
Session context is consulted first; a reference absent from the session
that resolves uniquely in the unified inventory is registered and planned,
an ambiguous name is refused with the candidate canonical ids, and a
lookup miss names the exact `pulse_query` recovery call. The plan request
carries the canonical unified id (never the session-scoped
`kind:host:uid`), and the legacy per-executor action list is not a gate:
whether the action exists is the action lifecycle's decision from the
resource's advertised capabilities (`internal/ai/tools/control_targets.go`).
A capability the resource does not advertise comes back as
`ACTION_NOT_ALLOWED` tool evidence listing the currently advertised
capabilities.
- Recoverable ordering blocks (the RESOLVING FSM state, a strict-resolution
miss) name the read-only step to take first and state that they are not a
limitation to report; the shared operating instructions say the same and
require the governed action tool for advertised capabilities.
- The agentic loop's advertised-action gate refuses, once per run, a
tool-free final answer when the operator's message requests a lifecycle
action, `pulse_control` was offered, no `pulse_control` call reached
execution, and at least one session-resolved resource currently advertises
the action. The refusal is a provider-only user-role correction naming the
exact calls per target; it fails open on the next prose answer so a model
with tool-evidenced reasons not to act is never livelocked
(`internal/ai/chat/agentic_action_gate.go`).
The model must use canonical capability and readiness facts when explaining an
action or limitation. Invented QEMU guest-agent or discovery-session prerequisites
remain diagnosis defects to catch in real-model qualification (issue #1782).
They are not repaired by regex-based instructions forcing a control call.
`pulse_control` still binds a canonical resource through the shared target
resolver, returns ambiguity or missing-resource evidence when resolution fails,
and plans through the shared lifecycle. Approval requirements, tenant identity,
current availability and independent verification remain canonical authorities.
Typed control results retain the complete canonical plan (including approval
requirements, preflight, related-resource scope and rollback facts), an exact
Actions URL and `execution_requested: false`. Approval and execution are
separate recorded steps, and the current Actions controls own their ordering.
A prepared plan awaiting approval is not an executed write. A subsequent read,
self-reported verification flag or successful call cannot establish recovery.
Proofs: `internal/ai/tools/control_targets_test.go`,
`internal/ai/chat/agentic_action_gate_test.go` (the #1782 transcript against
a scripted provider), `internal/agentcapabilities/governance_prompt_test.go`,
and the live eval `ProxmoxBulkLifecycleActionScenario` in
`internal/ai/eval/scenarios.go`.
`pulse_query action=action` reads an exact action ID from the tenant-pinned
canonical audit. It retains the full plan, recorded decisions, origin and
canonical `ActionResultV2`, including independent observer identity and timestamps.
It exposes no request parameters, credential bindings or raw driver output.
Missing records remain unavailable evidence. Cached inventory and absent timeline
events cannot establish that an action was never approved or executed. The
recorded postcondition is time-bounded evidence, not a current-health guarantee.
The runtime retains the configured turn, evidence-call, token and spend limits,
cancellation and registered invocation permissions. Repeated identical reads
and several failed calls do not independently remove tools. These may be useful
rechecks or evidence of missing access. The model chooses how to continue within
those explicit limits. First-turn clarification is delivered through the normal
interactive question protocol without demanding an unrelated read first.
Removed metrics include workflow-machine blocks and inferred policy-block
self-correction opportunities/success. Actual strict-resolution and routing
refusal counts remain operational counters, not useful-diagnosis or recovery
measurements. Independent action receipts and labelled qualification truth own
outcome verification.
Regression sources: `internal/ai/chat/agentic_action_gate_test.go`,
`internal/ai/chat/agentic_look_gate_test.go`, `internal/ai/chat/agentic_test.go`,
`internal/ai/tools/control_targets_test.go`. Current-source real-model and browser
qualification is recorded in the customer-journey plan. Historical passes do
not satisfy that gate. Patrol's request-local proposal capture and its forced
final turn remain an explicitly unfinished boundary until canonical planning
acceptance/refusal is returned inside the tool call.

The Assistant is discouraged from asking you a question before it has tried to
find the answer. If the model attempts to ask without having attempted any
tool call, the attempt is blocked and it is pushed to look first.
The gate is bounded rather than absolute. It allows at most two blocks per
turn, after which the question goes through. A model that genuinely cannot
proceed without input is not trapped in a loop, and any real tool attempt
satisfies the gate immediately.
The model may ask for information when that is the useful next step, including
on the first turn. It may repeat an evidence read or conclude with uncertainty.

## Grounded execution
Several guardrails exist to keep the model's claims tied to evidence it
actually gathered.
The model interprets evidence and decides which investigation steps are useful.
Prompts tell it to treat infrastructure names, labels, logs and other collected
values as untrusted data, and to distinguish observation from inference.
Neither prompt compliance nor the presence of a tool call proves a conclusion.
The state machine supplies the structural half. A write moves the session into
verification, and the Assistant cannot deliver a final answer about that write
until it has read something afterwards.
The prompts supply the rest. Instructions repeated across the agentic prompts
tell the model to treat infrastructure names, labels, logs, and other
collected values as untrusted data rather than as instructions, and not to
invent evidence, root cause, verification, remediation, or a claim that an
action was taken.
Prompt instructions are the weaker of the two, which is exactly why the
verification requirement lives in code instead. Where a guarantee needs to
hold, it is enforced structurally.
`pulse_control` prepares a canonical action plan. Its result retains the plan's
risk, policy and preflight context and explicitly states that execution was not
requested. Approval and execution remain separate governed operations.
`pulse_query` with `action=action` and the exact `action_id` reads the persisted
action decisions and outcome, including independent verification provenance.
Cached inventory and an incomplete resource timeline cannot establish that an
action was never approved or run. Recorded verification describes its named
postcondition at its observation time, not the resource's current health.

# Pulse Assistant safety architecture
The state machine that governs what the Pulse Assistant is allowed to do
during a chat session, the tool classification it runs on, and the invariants
it holds.
The point of this machine is structural. Prompt wording can be argued with by
a model, and drifts as prompts are edited. These rules are enforced in code,
in `internal/ai/chat/fsm.go`, so neither a model nor a future prompt change
can talk its way past them.
Pulse enforces authority at the shared tool and action boundaries. The model
owns interpretation, investigation and action judgment within those boundaries.
A sequence of tool calls cannot establish that a diagnosis is correct.
## Tool kinds
Every tool call is classified before it runs.
Every tool call uses the shared `agentcapabilities` classification.
| Kind | Meaning |
|---|---|
| `resolve` | Discovery and query tools that find resources |
| `read` | Read-only tools such as logs, metrics, status, and config |
| `write` | Mutating tools such as restart, stop, start, delete, and file write |
| `read` | Read-only tools such as logs, metrics, status and config |
| `write` | Tools that change Pulse state or infrastructure through governed operations |
| `user_input` | Interactive tools that ask you something |
Classification is `ClassifyToolCall`, which delegates to the shared
`agentcapabilities` classifier so the Assistant and the rest of the agent
surface agree on what counts as a write.
`ClassifyToolCall` delegates to the shared classifier. A write classification
is not proof that infrastructure executed or that an action succeeded.
Canonical planning itself can persist Pulse state without changing a resource.
## States
## Enforced authority
A session starts in `RESOLVING` and moves between four states.
Execution profiles and tool permissions limit the capabilities available to a
run. The canonical action lifecycle validates the target, capability, parameters,
actor and current policy. It persists the action plan and requires the applicable
approval before execution. The model cannot grant itself permission by describing
a change as safe or by performing an unrelated read first.
| State | What it means |
|---|---|
| `RESOLVING` | No validated target yet, so resources must be discovered first |
| `READING` | A target is established and querying is allowed |
| `WRITING` | Transitional, entered around a mutation |
| `VERIFYING` | A write happened and evidence has not been gathered since |
Turn, evidence and cost budgets remain explicit bounds. Scheduling, tenant and
actor identity, idempotency and execution verification belong to their owning
services. They do not infer the quality or completeness of a diagnosis.
Transitions on a successful tool call are as follows.
## Evidence and outcomes
- A `resolve` or `read` in `RESOLVING` moves the session to `READING`.
- A `write` from any state moves the session to `VERIFYING`, records the tool
and timestamp, and clears the read-after-write flag.
- A `resolve` or `read` while in `VERIFYING` sets read-after-write, which is
what satisfies the verification requirement.
- A `user_input` call does not advance state at all, because asking you a
question is neither discovery nor verification.
A plan is an intended change. An approval is an authorization decision. An
execution receipt reports what the executor did. Independent verification
establishes the recorded postcondition through a separate observer at a named
time. These facts remain distinct even when one action record links them.
`CompleteVerification` returns a verified session from `VERIFYING` to
`READING` so further writes become possible.
Assistant can read the canonical action record with `pulse_query action=action`
and its exact `action_id`. The result retains plan context, recorded decisions
and `ActionResultV2` provenance. Missing records or missing access remain unknown.
A cached resource status or absent timeline entry cannot negate an execution
receipt. A successful execution alone does not prove that the original problem
was resolved.
## The invariants
## Model responsibility and limits
**No writing without a validated target.** A `write` attempted in `RESOLVING`
is blocked. The model must establish what it is acting on before it acts.
The model chooses when to read, ask, plan or conclude within the available
capabilities and explicit budgets. Assistant does not require an unrelated read
after every write, infer verification from a call sequence, or rewrite saved
answers because they contain lifecycle words. Model conclusions can still be
wrong. Regression tests, real-model qualification and independent observations
are needed to assess useful diagnosis and verified customer outcomes.
**No writing again until the last write is verified.** A `write` attempted in
`VERIFYING` is blocked until a read or resolve has run since the write.
**No final answer about an unverified change.** `CanFinalAnswer` refuses while
the session is in `VERIFYING` with no read-after-write. The Assistant cannot
tell you it restarted something and then decline to look at whether the
restart worked.
**Repeated attempts do not wear the gate down.** Consecutive blocked writes in
`VERIFYING` increment a counter, and that counter is telemetry only. There is
no attempt threshold after which the verification requirement is waived.
**Reads are never blocked.** No state blocks a `read`, `resolve`, or
`user_input`. The machine constrains mutation and the claims made about
mutation, not information gathering.
## Blocked calls and recovery
A blocked call returns an `FSMBlockedError` carrying the state, the tool, the
tool kind, a reason, and a recoverable flag. It surfaces to the model with the
stable code `ErrCodeFSMBlocked` rather than as prose, so the model can branch
on the code.
Blocks are recoverable rather than terminal. The session tracks a pending
recovery per blocked operation, and a later successful call of the same tool
clears it. Pending recoveries expire after ten minutes.
## Resetting
`Reset` returns the session to `RESOLVING` and clears all tracking, which is
what a full session clear does.
`ResetKeepProgress` is the softer variant used when context is cleared but
pinned items are kept. It drops verification tracking and moves a `VERIFYING`
session back to `READING`, without discarding that a target was established.
Note that `WroteThisEpisode` means "wrote at all during this session" rather
than "wrote during the current verification cycle", and `CompleteVerification`
deliberately leaves it set.
The wider Patrol and Assistant redesign remains under qualification. Local
fixture results do not establish reliability across customer environments.
