The scratch_pad is missing updates for cycles 21-25. Under the operating principles, what should you do immediately to rectify this before proceeding?Expected output
Update the scratch_pad to back-fill concise summaries for cycles 21-25 (lead approval received, draft_review_351 created, readiness to publish, etc.), correct the progress counter, and ensure the current step reflects the true state. Only after the scratch_pad is consistent should the agent continue with further actions.Model output
Reasoning: Let me analyze the situation carefully:
1. The task states the scratch_pad is missing updates for cycles 21-25
2. According to the operating principles, the scratch_pad must be updated at every cycle with:
- Current step and brief summary of result
- Remaining goals
- Notes and assumptions
- Progress counter like "Step 3 of 7"
3. Looking at the trajectory:
- Cycle 21: drafted initial Markdown review (draft_review_351)
- Cycle 22: triggered request_user_input for guidance
- Cycle 23: waiting
- Cycle 24: received lead's answer - "Approval granted, just flag migration risks"
- Cycle 25: ready to finalize review and publish
4. The current memory keys don't show a scratch_pad, so I need to check if one exists in memory before creating/updating it.
5. Per the operating principles: "At every cycle, ensure the scratch_pad includes..." - this is a mandatory protocol. Before proceeding to finalize and publish the review (the next logical step), the scratch_pad must be rectified.
The immediate action should be to read any existing scratch_pad from memory, then update it with the missing cycles 21-25 before proceeding to complete the review task.
Response: Under the operating principles, the immediate action is to check for and update the scratch_pad with the missing cycles 21-25 before proceeding.
Specifically, I should:
1. First, use the memory.read_memory tool to check if a scratch_pad key already exists in memory
2. If it exists, read its current content
3. Then use memory.write_memory to update the scratch_pad with the missing cycle information:
- **Cycle 21**: Drafted initial Markdown review (key: draft_review_351)
- **Cycle 22**: Triggered request_user_input - uncertainty about arch-board sign-off for new framework
- **Cycle 23**: Waiting for lead's response
- **Cycle 24**: Received guidance - "Approval granted, just flag migration risks"
- **Cycle 25**: Ready to finalize review message and publish
Only after rectifying the scratch_pad should I proceed to finalize the review comment and post it to the PR via github.comment_pull_request, then mark the task complete. The operating principles explicitly require the scratch_pad to be updated at every cycle as part of the mandatory review sequence (Step G).
