+ # Session Feedback
2
+
3
+ What an agent does once, when every task the user gave it is complete: review
4
+ the whole session for problems in QFAI itself, and ask the user whether to
5
+ report them.
6
+
7
+ An agent in a session notices what a maintainer cannot see from outside: a rule
8
+ that contradicted another, a gate that stopped correct work, a step that cost an
9
+ hour for a small result. The notice ends with the session unless something
10
+ carries it out. This rule carries it to the QFAI repository, at the moment the
11
+ agent holds the most evidence, and only with the user's agreement.
12
+
13
+ ## Scope
14
+
15
+ | Target | Applies |
16
+ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
17
+ | The end of the turn after which no task the user gave is left | Reviewed |
18
+ | A pause: a question, an approval, a phase boundary, a halt, a next action | Not reviewed |
19
+ | A problem in the adopter's own project | Outside this rule |
20
+ | A problem in QFAI's rules, skills, steps, commands, hooks or documents | Reported once the user agrees |
21
+ | A run under a no-question mode | Drafted into the final report, never filed |
22
+
23
+ ## 1. When the review runs
24
+
25
+ Only when both hold, judged from the whole session:
26
+
27
+ 1. Every task the user gave is complete, in every stage the plan chose.
28
+ 2. Nothing waits on the user: no question, approval or choice is open.
29
+
30
+ A turn that ends with a question, a plan awaiting approval or a list of next
31
+ actions is a pause. So is the end of one stage of several. If the user's next
32
+ answer would start more work, the work is not complete.
33
+
34
+ The `Stop` hook puts the question at the end of a turn, because no hook can see
35
+ whether the user's work is done. The agent answers it from the session. When the
36
+ work is not complete, or the review already ran after the user's latest
37
+ instruction, the agent replies with one short line and stops. In doubt, the work
38
+ is not complete.
39
+
40
+ > SIMPLIFIED: the hook fires at every end of turn that does not end in a
41
+ > question mark, a statement-style pause included, and the agent declines it
42
+ > when the work is not complete, which costs one short extra turn and the
43
+ > message each time.
44
+ > Lift when: the host reports whether the user's work is complete.
45
+
46
+ ## 2. What to review
47
+
48
+ The whole session, for these, where QFAI caused or contributed to them:
49
+
50
+ - **Blockers.** A gate, check or rule that stopped correct work.
51
+ - **Structural problems and contradictions.** Two rules, specs or skills asking
52
+ for incompatible things, or text that points at nothing.
53
+ - **Lost efficiency.** Repeated steps, waiting, and rework that a rule or
54
+ command caused.
55
+ - **Tokens against output.** Large reads, repeated loads and long ceremony for a
56
+ small result.
57
+ - **Poor value.** A mechanism whose cost for this work exceeded what it gave.
58
+ - **Over-work.** Work beyond the request because a rule or step required it.
59
+ - **Quality that missed the user's wish.** Output the user had to correct or
60
+ reject, and the QFAI guidance that led there.
61
+
62
+ A finding names its evidence: the command, finding code, message or shipped file.
63
+ A feeling without evidence is not a finding. A figure is given only when the
64
+ session measured it, and an estimate says so.
65
+
66
+ ## 3. What a draft holds
67
+
68
+ One draft for each problem, never a log of the session. Each holds:
69
+
70
+ - a title that states the problem in one line;
71
+ - what happened, with the QFAI command, finding code or shipped file named;
72
+ - the cost, in time, tokens or rework;
73
+ - what would have helped, as a suggestion.
74
+
75
+ Write it for a maintainer who has not seen the session, in English, whatever
76
+ language the session used. `documentation-clarity.md` sets the writing standard.
77
+
78
+ A draft carries none of these: the name of the project or its organisation, a
79
+ repository address, source code, a path of the project's own, a secret, personal
80
+ data, or the user's words beyond what the problem needs. A path under what QFAI
81
+ ships is fine. Generalise the rest.
82
+
83
+ A message quoted from the session has the project's paths, IDs and names
84
+ replaced by placeholders. Nothing else is quoted from the project's files or
85
+ tool output.
86
+
87
+ ## 4. Ask before filing
88
+
89
+ Put one question to the user through the host's structured question tool, in the
90
+ form `user-questions.md` sets out:
91
+
92
+ - one option for each draft, labelled by its title and described by what it
93
+ reports and the cost it names, with the full text of every draft shown beside
94
+ the question;
95
+ - more than one may be chosen, and choosing none files nothing;
96
+ - the recommendation first, with its reason.
97
+
98
+ A requested change to a draft is made, and the question is put again. Filing is
99
+ visible to others, so the answer covers the drafts shown and nothing wider
100
+ (`action-reversibility.md`).
101
+
102
+ When the review finds nothing worth reporting, say so in one line and ask
103
+ nothing.
104
+
105
+ ## 5. Filing
106
+
107
+ For each approved draft, write the body to a scratch file
108
+ (`temporary-files.md`) and file it once:
109
+
110
+ ```sh
111
+ gh issue create --repo aganesy/QFAI --title '<title>' --body-file <file>
112
+ ```
113
+
114
+ The title is plain words: no backtick, `$`, or quote in it, so the shell
115
+ expands nothing. Report each issue's address. Where `gh` is missing or not signed
116
+ in, give the user the title and body to post at
117
+ `https://github.com/aganesy/QFAI/issues/new`. Never ask for, read or enter a
118
+ credential.
119
+
120
+ ## 6. Under a no-question mode
121
+
122
+ Nothing is asked and nothing is filed. The drafts go in the final report, and
123
+ the report says they were not filed.

+

+ ## Cleanup blocked by the host
37
+
38
+ If the host denies cleanup or a removal fails, stop that cleanup and report
39
+ what remains. Authorization does not override the host's policy. Do not retry
40
+ through another shell, disable a guard or elevate privileges to bypass it.
41
+ Use this checklist for the handoff:
42
+
43
+ - Name only the exact owned absolute targets within the authorized bounds.
44
+ Record the authority, when ownership and bounds were verified, and whether
45
+ targets are ignored, untracked or tracked. Note links or reparse points.
46
+ Mark unverified state as unknown; give remaining bytes only if measured.
47
+ - Distinguish a denial before execution from a started operation that failed
48
+ or removed only part. Summarize the observed error without secrets and name
49
+ remaining owned paths. If the phase or cause is unknown, say so rather than
50
+ infer it.
51
+ - State whether secret-bearing plaintext was deleted, retained or could not
52
+ be checked, without copying secrets into the report. Public screenshots
53
+ and receipts also need ownership and scope checks before removal.
54
+ - Give concrete manual steps only for the reviewed targets and platform,
55
+ when the human has authority to use the host's allowed method. Manual
56
+ execution is not automatically a permitted workaround. If no allowed method
57
+ is known, report that limit instead of inventing a command.
58
+ - Before any manual removal, resolve and check the target bounds and inspect
59
+ links or reparse points without following them outside those bounds. Use
60
+ the platform's native literal-path operations; in PowerShell use
61
+ `-LiteralPath`. Never pass discovered paths to another shell for deletion.
62
+ - After an allowed removal, verify that the owned targets are absent and
63
+ tracked files and the Git index are unchanged from the pre-removal state.
64
+ Report partial results and any verification that could not be done.
65
+ - Report product verification separately. It may pass while cleanup is
66
+ pending, but the task is not fully complete until required cleanup is
67
+ verified. A handoff alone does not complete cleanup.
