# HTML Log Format Reference |

> Read this file only when you need to write or update a log event. |
| 4 |
> Do not load it at session start — load it on demand to keep orchestrator context lean. |

Generate `{TEMP_ROOT}/issues/<N>/workflow-log.html`. Rewrite the |
| 7 |
full file on each update. The event list only grows — never remove past events. |

from the agent's `reasoning` field (or reconstructed from its output if not returned |
| 309 |
explicitly). Three sub-fields, each a distinct paragraph or bulleted list: |
| 310 |
- **Alternatives considered** — other approaches or options the agent weighed |
| 311 |
- **Hesitations** — what was unclear, ambiguous, or uncertain during the run |
| 312 |
- **Decision rationale** — why the chosen approach won over the alternatives |
| 313 |
|
| 314 |
This is the primary debugging and improvement surface. If reasoning is thin, push the |
| 315 |
agent to elaborate before writing the HTML. "No alternatives considered" and "No |
| 316 |
hesitations" are red flags — they mean the agent did not reflect, not that the task was |
| 317 |
trivial. |

**ROUTING DECISION:** |
| 322 |
- Routing signals: `effort` · `risk_level` · `complexity` · `grooming_confidence` |
| 323 |
- Decision: next agent/step and why |
| 324 |
- Orchestrator reasoning: what made the case clear or borderline, which `risk_notes` excerpt was weighed, what alternative routing was discarded and why |
| 325 |
|
| 326 |
**grooming-agent AGENT event:** |
| 327 |
- Reasoning: why this approach over alternatives; what in the spec was ambiguous; what was assumed vs. confirmed |
| 328 |
- Key signals: effort · risk_level · complexity · confidence · open_questions count |
| 329 |
- Return JSON: compact grooming JSON |

**challenger AGENT event:** |
| 332 |
- Verdict: `<span class="detail-verdict verdict-pass">APPROVED</span>` / `verdict-warn NEEDS_REVISION` / `verdict-fail BLOCKED` |
| 333 |
- Reasoning: what risks were weighed; what made the verdict clear or a close call; which findings were borderline MUST_HAVE vs SHOULD_HAVE |
| 334 |
- Feedback: MUST_HAVE/SHOULD_HAVE items classified (or "No blocking findings") |
| 335 |
- NTH items dispatched: COULD_HAVE/NICE_TO_HAVE count |
| 336 |
|
| 337 |
**backend-agent / frontend-agent AGENT event:** |
| 338 |
- Reasoning: alternatives considered · hesitations · decision rationale (from `reasoning` field) |
| 339 |
- Implementation decisions: key choices made during implementation |
| 340 |
- Files modified: list with one-line description each |
| 341 |
- docs result: DONE/SKIP + files |
| 342 |
- e2e_smoke result: PASS/FAIL/SKIP + scenarios |
| 343 |
- DOD L1 result: checks with PASS/WARN and counts |
| 344 |
- Commit: SHA + message |
| 345 |

**release-agent AGENT event:** |
| 347 |
- PR: URL + title |
| 348 |
- Trailer verified: yes (N commits) |
| 349 |
- Branch pushed: yes |
| 350 |
- PR number |
| 351 |
|
| 352 |
**lead-reviewer AGENT event:** |
| 353 |
- Verdict: badge (PASS / REQUEST_CHANGES) |
| 354 |
- Reasoning: what was examined most carefully; what was a close call in criticality classification; what made the verdict clear |
| 355 |
- Blockers: list by criticality (or "None") |
| 356 |
- Nice-to-haves dispatched: count |
| 357 |
|
| 358 |
**qa-engineer AGENT event:** |
| 359 |
- Environment boot: only include when Strategy B was used **or** when boot failed (as a failure explanation). Omit entirely for backend-only runs where boot succeeded and Strategy B was not used — `gh pr checkout`, boot command `exit 0`, and `localhost HTTP 200` are setup noise, not QA findings. |
| 360 |
- Reasoning: why each strategy was selected or skipped; what made any criterion borderline; what was uncertain in the evidence |
| 361 |
- Strategies considered: list each (A/B/C) with one-line reason it was used or skipped |
| 362 |
- AC results: each criterion → PASS / FAIL / PARTIAL with method and evidence |
| 363 |
- Blockers: list (or "None") |
| 364 |
- Report: PR comment URL |
| 365 |
- If `config.ai.e2e.ci_integration` is false, E2E specs are temporary evidence artifacts. If true, they are permanent additions to the project's test suite. |
| 366 |

| 367 |
**DOD L2 GATE event:** |
| 368 |
- Checks: 6 checks with output excerpt |
| 369 |
- Trailer verification: result per commit |
| 370 |
- Layer 1 delta: issues L2 caught that L1 missed (or "None") |
| 371 |
- CI Checks: each → PASS / FAIL |
| 372 |
- Failures: error excerpt + fix applied (or "None") |
