Action Summary

Runward is an agent delivery framework that automates the entire mission from framing to handover, addressing architecture problems in agentic systems by providing structured delivery and governance. It supports various input sources like specs, OpenSpecs, and prototypes and offers six gated phases: Frame, Spec Kit, OpenSpec, Brownfield, Floor, Evolution on Evidence, Governance, and Handover. Runward ensures that agentic systems are built, tested, and delivered with resilience and autonomy, making them robust against unpredictable outputs and complex environments.

What’s Changed

Making “an AI agent can discover, install and operate runward with no human at the keyboard” true — without leaning on a detection layer that can only ever be partial (ADR-0030).

  • Neutral baseline by default. init with no explicit --tools writes only the vendor-neutral core (AGENTS.md + .agents/skills/); --yes no longer defaults to the claude profile and the wizard pre-checks nothing. No harness is privileged — a channel is an opt-in the operator adds afterward. Closes a standing vendor-neutrality breach.
  • runward wire — best-effort harness detection. Detects the AI harness running the command via a verified runtime signal (CLAUDECODE for Claude Code and Cowork, GEMINI_CLI, CURSOR_AGENT), falling back to a config-file marker, then undetermined. It recommends the matching auto-trigger channel and points at the inert sample — it never wires anything (wires:false invariant, ADR-0012) and never prompts, so an agent run never hangs. On undetermined, the doctrine (AGENTS.md + the plugin SKILL.md) tells the agent to ask the operator which tool they use rather than guess.
  • check --json — a machine contract. A stable, deterministic JSON verdict (current gate, deliverable states, conformance gaps) so an agent drives on data, not scraped text. Hook output is routed to stderr under --json so a subprocess can’t corrupt the object.
  • Hardened non-interactivity. isNonInteractive() also returns true when stdin is not a TTY or CI is set — an autonomous run never hangs on a prompt it cannot answer.
  • Guards. New unit tests for detection (signal precedence, per-family config detection, undetermined, the wires:false invariant) and smoke assertions for wire --json and check --json[ --strict]. Self-gate strict green; 65 unit tests.
