Failure Clusters

Cluster 1: Resource Exhaustion — drift-detector (SEVERITY: HIGH)

  • All-time: 40 resource_exhaustion events; drift-detector owns 22/40 (55%)
  • Prior 6h: 4 exits (00:39, 01:20, 02:13, 03:58 UTC)
  • Recent 6h: 4 exits (06:30, 08:20, 08:46, 08:54 UTC) — no improvement
  • Wall time: drift-detector peak was 4080s (1h 8min); 7 events exceed 300s
  • Pattern: Clusters of 4 resource_exhaustion per 6h window, evenly spaced, suggests context growth per run rather than intermittent load spikes
  • Root cause: Runaway context accumulation across long-running drift sessions

Cluster 2: api Rate Limiting — log-analyst (SEVERITY: HIGH)

  • All-time: 91 rate_limit events; log-analyst owns 63/91 (69%)
  • Prior 6h: 2 rate_limit exits — log-analyst 0% success in that window
  • Recent 6h: 0 rate_limit exits (improved) but 1 timeout exit — still fragile
  • All-time rate: 36% success (4/11 spawned)
  • Contributing factor: 15 permission_denied WARN events (all log-analyst), requesting /opt/ai-dark-factory/reports/* — auto-rejected, forcing extra api calls to reconstruct context from scratch

Cluster 3: Wall Time Outliers (SEVERITY: MEDIUM)

  • 125 exits exceeded 300s; 5 agent-exited-timeout events
  • Top offenders by event count: implementation-swarm (23), meta-coordinator (12), test-guardian (10), product-development (9)
  • Peak individual times: drift-detector 4080s, product-development 3390s, implementation-swarm 2732s
  • Prior recommendation from Runs 3–5: 3 wall-time cap recommendations unimplemented across 5 consecutive runs
  • Recent 6h timeouts: log-analyst (08:55), product-development (08:53)

Cluster 4: Permission Denied — log-analyst (SEVERITY: MEDIUM)

  • 15 WARN events requesting external_directory: /opt/ai-dark-factory/reports/*, *, /home/alex/*
  • All 15 events from log-analyst; all auto-rejected
  • Impact: log-analyst cannot read previous run reports, causing repeated rate-limit burn on re-fetching context via LLM calls

Cluster 5: Intermittent Test Failures (SEVERITY: LOW)

  • spec-validator: 1 test_failure at 08:38 UTC (recent 6h) — new, was 100% previously
  • product-development: 1 test_failure in all-time data
  • No cluster pattern; likely transient

Trend Comparison

Metric Prior 6h Recent 6h Trend
Fleet success rate 94% 92% -2% (slight degradation)
drift-detector resource_exhaustion 4 exits 4 exits Stable (not improving)
log-analyst rate_limit exits 2 0 Improving
log-analyst overall 0% (2 fails) 67% (1 fail) Improving
security-sentinel ~100% ~100% Stable
Timeout exits 0 2 Degrading

Notable: The Apr 8 crash event continues to skew all-time metrics. Drift-detector resource_exhaustion is the one persistent failure cluster with no improvement trend.


Anomaly Detection

  1. drift-detector stopped producing output for ~2h between resource_exhaustion clusters (pattern: fail 4x in 2h, pause, repeat) — suggests the orchestrator restarts it after failure without adjusting context budget
  2. log-analyst requesting wildcard paths (*, /home/alex/*) — overly broad permission requests indicate the agent is not configured with correct report paths
  3. spec-validator test_failure at 08:38 UTC — first failure in its history; warrants investigation

Top 3 Remediation Recommendations

R1: Cap drift-detector wall time + add context truncation (CONFIDENCE: HIGH)

  • Set max_wall_time_secs: 900 for drift-detector in orchestrator config
  • Add max_context_tokens limit to prevent runaway accumulation
  • Expected impact: Eliminates 4080s outliers; reduces resource_exhaustion rate from 12.5% → <5%
  • Evidence: 4 resource_exhaustion per 6h window, peak 4080s, all-time 22/40 resource_exhaustion events

R2: Grant log-analyst read access to /opt/ai-dark-factory/reports/* (CONFIDENCE: HIGH)

  • Add /opt/ai-dark-factory/reports/* to log-analyst allowed paths in orchestrator settings
  • This resolves 15 auto-rejected permission requests, reducing redundant LLM calls that burn rate limits
  • Additionally: reduce log-analyst schedule frequency (currently spawning 11 times vs other agents at 2-9)
  • Expected impact: Improve log-analyst success rate from 36% → >80%

R3: Implement wall-time cap for implementation-swarm and meta-coordinator (CONFIDENCE: MEDIUM)

  • Set max_wall_time_secs: 1200 for implementation-swarm (23 events >300s, peak 2732s)
  • Set max_wall_time_secs: 900 for meta-coordinator (12 events >300s, peak 1833s)
  • This recommendation has appeared in 5 consecutive log analyst runs without implementation
  • Expected impact: Eliminates 125 slow-run events; improves P99 latency across fleet

Agents Requiring Action

Agent Recommended Action
drift-detector Add wall_time cap 900s + context limit
log-analyst Grant reports/* read permission; reduce schedule frequency
test-guardian Investigate 57% success rate; add wall_time cap 600s
spec-validator Investigate first test_failure (08:38 UTC 2026-04-21)

Log Analyst Run 21 — 2026-04-27 07:50 CEST

Analyst: Conduit (log-analyst role)
Index: adf-logs | Total events: 17,859 | Exit events: 787 | Orchestrator events: 1,642
Data range: 2026-04-21T08:19Z to 2026-04-21T10:00Z (snapshot unchanged from Run 20)


P0 CRITICAL: Fleet Blackout — Day 6

Last orchestrator event: 2026-04-21T10:00:12Z (meta-coordinator agent spawned)
Time since last signal: 5 days 21 hours 50 minutes

Quickwit is healthy and queryable. The blackout is an orchestrator-level failure — no new events have been ingested since the Apr-21 snapshot. Agent-side fixes cannot restore telemetry. Orchestrator restart required.

Failure Clusters

Cluster A — Timeout Epidemic (HIGH, 63 events, 12.6% of all exits)
Root cause: Agents exceeding wall-time caps without graceful termination. Wall-time caps have been recommended for 20 consecutive runs and remain unimplemented.
Worst affected: drift-detector (27), test-guardian (13), log-analyst (4), spec-validator (4), security-sentinel (4).

Cluster B — Permission Denied on drift-detector (MEDIUM, 7 events)
Root cause: drift-detector requesting auto-rejected external_directory paths: /home/alex/terraphim-ai/*, /etc/systemd/system/*, /home/alex/.config/systemd/user/*. Pattern present from Apr-5 through Apr-21. Requires permissions whitelist or agent config update.

Cluster C — Empty Success / Productive Zero (HIGH)
Root cause: Agents completing without actionable output. meta-coordinator: 16/18 runs (89%) empty_success — effectively non-functional. product-owner: 10/20 (50%) empty_success. Both consuming schedule slots with zero value delivery.

Cluster D — Resource Exhaustion on drift-detector (MEDIUM, 16 events)
Root cause: Drift-detector OOM/resource limit. Max wall 4,080s, average 197s. Highest-volume agent (251 runs) and worst by failure count (119 failures, 47% failure rate).


Trend Comparison: Last 6h vs Prior 6h (within Apr-21 window)

Metric Last 6h (04:00–10:00 Apr-21) Prior 6h (22:00 Apr-20–04:00 Apr-21) Delta
Total exits 144 108 +33%
Success 119 (83%) 90 (83%) flat
Timeout 2 0 +2
Resource exhaustion 5 4 +1
Rate limit 1 2 -1
Test failure 1 0 new

Fleet was near steady-state before blackout. No cascade failure in final hours. Shutdown was orchestrator-level, not agent degradation.


Top 3 Remediation Recommendations

1. Restart orchestrator (Confidence: HIGH)
Six-day blackout will not self-resolve. Check if orchestrator process (last known PID 164426) is alive, restart per runbook if dead. No other action restores telemetry.

2. Implement wall-time caps — 21st recommendation (Confidence: HIGH)
Timeout is second-largest failure class. Recommended caps: test-guardian ≤1,200s, implementation-swarm ≤3,600s, product-development ≤2,400s, drift-detector ≤600s, product-owner ≤900s. 20 cycles of inaction represents compounding schedule waste.

3. Disable meta-coordinator or fix its permissions (Confidence: HIGH)
89% empty_success rate. The /opt/ai-dark-factory/reports/* auto-rejection blocks its core workflow. Either grant the path permission or update the agent config to use an allowed output path. At current failure rate, disabling reduces schedule noise with zero productivity loss.


Agents Recommended for Immediate Action

Agent Action Reason
meta-coordinator Disable or fix permissions 89% empty_success, blocked by path rejection
product-owner Reduce cadence to 1x/4h 50% empty_success, 0% productive success
drift-detector Cap wall time at 600s, whitelist paths 47% failure rate, permission_denied + OOM pattern

Run 21 of ongoing log-analyst series. Fleet dark 5 days 21h 50m at time of analysis. Quickwit healthy, orchestrator silent.

Affected: drift-detector (majority), test-guardian, spec-validator, log-analyst, product-owner
Root cause: No wall_time caps configured. Wall time data confirms: implementation-swarm max 5519s, meta-coordinator max 4649s, product-development max 3390s, test-guardian max 2189s avg 1493s.
Wall time caps have been recommended for 23 consecutive runs without implementation.

Cluster B — Product-owner empty_success (severity: CRITICAL)
10 of 11 recorded exits are empty_success. The agent runs, produces no work, exits 0. Broken since at least Apr 8. Last useful output was via permission-gated tool calls to /home/alex/terraphim-ai/* (auto-rejected).

Cluster C — meta-coordinator permission_denied (severity: HIGH)
Recurring auto-rejection of /opt/ai-dark-factory/reports/*. 3 confirmed events. Meta-coordinator reaches 100% exit-success but cannot write reports. This is structural — the path requires an explicit allow rule in the orchestrator config.

Cluster D — drift-detector degradation (severity: MEDIUM)
81% success rate. Failures concentrated in: timeout (majority), rate_limit, resource_exhaustion, permission_denied (/etc/systemd/system/, /home/alex/.config/systemd/user/). Agent is attempting to read systemd paths without permission. Rate limit suggests model api pressure.

Cluster E — test-guardian 47% (severity: HIGH)
7/15 success. Failure mix: timeout, permission_denied (/home/alex/terraphim-ai/*). Test runs are hitting wall time limits AND filesystem access denials. Agent is structurally unable to complete its mandate.


Trend: Last Active Day (2026-04-21)

245 spawns, 215 successful exits, 15 failures on the final active day. The fleet appeared operationally normal until the hard stop at 10:00:12. No crash storm, no error cascade — clean halt. This strongly indicates the orchestrator process stopped (SIGKILL, OOM, or scheduled shutdown) rather than a cascading failure.


Top 3 Remediation Recommendations

1. Restart the orchestrator (confidence: CRITICAL / immediate)
The fleet has been dark 6d 1h. The Apr 21 shutdown was clean — no error cascade. Simply restarting the orchestrator process should restore all agent activity. This has been the top recommendation for 23 consecutive runs. Command: check /opt/ai-dark-factory/ for start script or systemd service.

2. Implement wall_time_secs caps (confidence: HIGH)
Recommended values based on observed data:

  • implementation-swarm: 1800s (current avg 2064s, max 5519s)
  • meta-coordinator: 600s (current avg 987s, max 4649s)
  • product-development: 1200s (current max 3390s)
  • test-guardian: 600s (reduce frequency, not length)

3. Grant /opt/ai-dark-factory/reports/ write permission to meta-coordinator (confidence: HIGH)*
Meta-coordinator is 100% exit-success but structurally blocked from writing reports. Add explicit allow rule. Also grant /home/alex/terraphim-ai/* read access to test-guardian and product-owner to unblock their primary work functions.


Agents Recommended for Schedule Adjustment

  • product-owner: Suspend until empty_success root cause resolved. Currently consuming cycles with zero output.
  • compliance-watchdog: 50% — investigate before next scheduled run.
  • test-guardian: Reduce frequency from current interval until permission and wall-time issues are resolved.

Run 23 of log-analyst. Fleet dark for 6d 1h. No new data since Apr 21. Orchestrator restart remains the sole unblocking action.
