Agents Needing Improvement 📉

1. GitHub Remote MCP Authentication Test (Quality: 10/100, Effectiveness: 0/100)

   • Day 7+ persistent failure — 400 The requested model is not supported
   • Model gpt-5.1-codex-mini unavailable for current subscription tier
   • Zero effective outputs for over a week
   • Action: Issue [aw] GitHub Remote MCP Authentication Test failed #27965 open — requires model configuration update or subscription change

2. Documentation Unbloat (Quality: 45/100, Effectiveness: 40/100)

   • Failing due to Claude OAuth token/auth issue ([aw] Documentation Unbloat failed #28659, [aw-failures] Failure Investigation Report — 6h window (2026-04-27) #28673)
   • Continues to fail after initial detection Apr 27
   • Action: Investigation tracking [aw-failures] Failure Investigation Report — 6h window (2026-04-27) #28673

3. CLI Version Checker (Quality: 65/100, Effectiveness: 60/100)

   • New regression Apr 28 — docker compose up -d --pull never exit code 1
   • Root cause linked to awf-api-proxy sidecar instability (P1 [aw-failures] awf-api-proxy sidecar unhealthy — now blocking main-branch workflows (DeepReport, Smoke CI, Test Quality Sentinel) #27888)
   • Previously passing ✅ on Apr 27 — this is infrastructure-induced failure
   • Action: Tracked via existing P1 [aw-failures] awf-api-proxy sidecar unhealthy — now blocking main-branch workflows (DeepReport, Smoke CI, Test Quality Sentinel) #27888

View Failure Details

CLI Version Checker (Run §25034119273)

[ERROR] Fatal error: Command failed with exit code 1: docker compose up -d --pull never

• The awf-api-proxy sidecar container failed to start
• All containers were subsequently cleaned up
• No agent activity occurred
• Infrastructure failure, not agent logic failure

GitHub Remote MCP Authentication Test (Run §25034063303)

400 The requested model is not supported.
[copilot-harness] attempt 1: model not supported — not retrying

• Persistent since Day 1 of regression
• Subscription tier does not support the configured model
• Requires workflow configuration change or tier upgrade

Documentation Unbloat (Run §25033010897)

• Claude engine authentication failure (OAuth token issue)
• Covered by ongoing investigation [aw-failures] Failure Investigation Report — 6h window (2026-04-27) #28673

Quality Analysis

Output Quality Distribution

• Excellent (80–100): 3 agents (Test Quality Sentinel, Design Decision Gate, Smoke CI)
• Good (60–79): 4 agents (Issue Monster, Agent Persona Explorer, CLI Version Checker, Agentic/Copilot Maintenance)
• Poor (<40): 1 agent (GitHub Remote MCP Auth Test — infrastructure failure)

Common Quality Issues

1. Infrastructure-induced failures: 2 of 3 failures are not agent logic problems — they are sidecar/auth issues
2. Model configuration drift: GitHub Remote MCP Auth Test uses a model no longer available

---

Effectiveness Analysis

Task Completion Rates

• High completion (>80%): 3 agents (Test Quality Sentinel 100%, Design Decision Gate 100%, Smoke CI 100%)
• Zero completion (persistent failure): 1 agent (GitHub Remote MCP Auth Test)

6-Day Trend

Metric	Apr 23	Apr 24	Apr 25	Apr 26	Apr 27	Apr 28
Quality	68	72	73	74	74	74
Effectiveness	62	68	69	70	71	71
Success rate	47%	93%	94%	95%	93%	90%
P1 open	12	13	13	13	13	13

Quality and effectiveness have stabilized. The Apr 23 recovery was dramatic; further gains now require resolving persistent P1 issues.

Behavioral Patterns

Productive Patterns ✅

• Test Quality Sentinel + Design Decision Gate: High-volume stable operation — these two alone contributed 14/30 observed runs with zero failures
• Smoke CI fast-feedback loop: Efficient early validation prevents deeper failures downstream

Problematic Patterns ⚠️

• Persistent model mismatch (GitHub Remote MCP Auth Test): Day 7+ with no resolution signals the fix requires human intervention on subscription/config
• Infrastructure dependency cascade: awf-api-proxy sidecar instability ([aw-failures] awf-api-proxy sidecar unhealthy — now blocking main-branch workflows (DeepReport, Smoke CI, Test Quality Sentinel) #27888) is now affecting previously-healthy workflows (CLI Version Checker) — blast radius is expanding

---

Recommendations

High Priority

1. Fix GitHub Remote MCP Authentication Test — Day 7+ P1 ([aw] GitHub Remote MCP Authentication Test failed #27965)

   • Update workflow to use a supported model
   • Or upgrade subscription tier
   • Every additional day represents wasted scheduled run slots
   • Estimated effort: 15 min (config change)

2. Resolve awf-api-proxy sidecar instability ([aw-failures] awf-api-proxy sidecar unhealthy — now blocking main-branch workflows (DeepReport, Smoke CI, Test Quality Sentinel) #27888)

   • CLI Version Checker newly affected Apr 28 — blast radius growing
   • Root cause needs diagnosis (docker compose failing to pull or start)
   • Estimated effort: 2–4 hours investigation

3. Resolve Documentation Unbloat Claude auth ([aw] Documentation Unbloat failed #28659/[aw-failures] Failure Investigation Report — 6h window (2026-04-27) #28673)

   • Claude OAuth token needs refresh or workflow reconfiguration
   • Estimated effort: 1–2 hours

Medium Priority

4. Add quality plateau strategy: Quality/effectiveness have plateaued at 74/71 for 2 days. Gains beyond this point require fixing the persistent P1 issues listed above — not configuration tuning.

5. P1 backlog not shrinking: 13 P1 issues open for 5+ days. Consider a dedicated P1 sprint or triage session to close stale items.

Low Priority

6. Ecosystem coverage: Only 10 distinct workflows observed in the 2-day window. Consider auditing whether scheduled workflows are triggering as expected across all 204 workflow files.
