Subject: [PATCH 01/17] docs: design plan for git-native results storage
 (#1259)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Captures the agreed architecture before implementation:
- Git is the canonical store; local clone is the working copy
- No separate index file — git tree IS the index
- Eval writes directly to clone working tree (not project-local .agentv/results/)
- Reads via git ls-tree + git cat-file --batch (no checkout)
- Pagination via cursor
- mode: github explicit in config (extension point)

Supersedes closed PR #1260. See docs/plans/git-native-results.md for full design.

+# Git-native results storage
+
+**Status**: design approved, implementation pending
+**Tracks**: issue #1259 (supersedes closed PR #1260)
+**Scope**: single PR; breaking changes accepted (no production users yet)
+
+---
+
+## Why
+
+`/api/runs` polls every 5s and does O(N) per-manifest reads (`readdir` + `statSync` + `loadResultFile` per run). At hundreds of runs it stalls; at thousands it falls over. The original PR #1260 tried to fix this with an append-only `index/runs.jsonl` file, which works but adds a second source of truth that can drift, grows forever, and requires a sha-amend dance plus a `reindex` migration command.
+
+After comparing with **entireio** (single-ref + git tree as index) and **skillfully** (explicit `sourceMode = github_import` pattern with PR-based writes for human-curated content), the cleaner architecture treats **git as the canonical store**, not as a transport layer.
+
+## Core idea
+
+The git tree IS the index. `git ls-tree -r origin/main -- runs/` lists every run path without reading any blob. `git cat-file --batch` reads existing `benchmark.json` blobs in one subprocess call. No separate index file. No drift. Natural pruning when runs are deleted. With `--filter=blob:none` clone, individual run blobs are only fetched lazily when a user opens the detail view.
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Storage
+
+- The configured remote `results.repo` is **the** storage location.
+- The local clone at `results.path` (filesystem path) is the working copy.
+- No more `.agentv/results/runs/` writes in the source project. No more gitignored results.
+
+```yaml
+# config.yaml
+results:
+  mode: github                       # required, only valid value today
+  repo: myorg/eval-results           # remote
+  path: ~/data/agentv-results        # optional; default ~/.agentv/results/<slug>/
+  auto_push: true                    # default
+```
+
+`mode: github` is explicit (extension point; mirrors skillfully's `sourceMode` pattern). `path` is the **local filesystem location** of the clone (breaking change — was previously the subdir within the remote repo). Runs always land at `<clone>/runs/<experiment>/<timestamp>/` regardless.
+
+### Writes
+
+Every `agentv eval` is one atomic operation:
+
+1. `git fetch origin --prune` (refresh; no checkout)
+2. Write artifacts into working tree at `<clone>/runs/<experiment>/<timestamp>/`
+3. `git add runs/<experiment>/<timestamp>/`
+4. `git commit -m "<title>" -m "Agentv-Run: <run-id>"` (P6 trailer baked in)
+5. If `auto_push`: `git push origin HEAD:main` with retry-on-non-fast-forward (rebase + retry)
+
+Each run is one commit. Files are unique to that run, so rebases never content-conflict.
+
+### Reads
+
+**Listing** (replaces `listResultFilesFromRunsDir`):
+- `git ls-tree -r origin/main -- runs/` → filter for `benchmark.json` paths
+- `git cat-file --batch` → read those blobs in one subprocess
+- Derive `run_id` from path (same logic as current `buildRunId`)
+- Sort by timestamp descending
+- Apply cursor pagination
+
+**Detail view file reads** (replaces `readFileSync(meta.path)`):
+- Committed: `git cat-file -p origin/main:runs/.../<file>`
+- In-progress (post-write, pre-commit): `readFileSync(<path>)` from working tree
+
+**In-progress detection**: between artifact write and commit, files exist only in the working tree. `git status --porcelain runs/` surfaces them; merge with the committed list for the Studio runs view.
+
+### Sync
+
+- `agentv eval` does its own fetch + push (no separate sync needed for own work)
+- `agentv results sync` = `git fetch origin --prune` (refresh view of others' work)
+- No more `git checkout`, no more `git pull --ff-only`
+- Studio polls `/api/runs` which reads from git object DB (already current after the most recent fetch)
+
+### Pagination
+
+`/api/runs?limit=50&cursor=<run_id>`:
+- Cursor is the `run_id` of the last item from the previous page
+- Server reads the full sorted list (one `git ls-tree` + one `git cat-file --batch`), finds the cursor, slices `[cursorIdx+1 : cursorIdx+1+limit]`, returns `next_cursor` if more remain
+- Studio uses `useInfiniteQuery` + an `IntersectionObserver` sentinel row
+
+## Implementation passes
+
+The PR is large but bounded. Suggested order within the single PR:
+
+### Pass 1 — config + paths
+
+- Update `ResultsConfig` schema: require `mode: github`, repurpose `path` as filesystem location
+- Rename `getResultsRepoCachePaths` → `getResultsRepoLocalPaths`
+- Rename `cache_dir` → `local_dir` in `ResultsRepoStatus` (wire format too)
+- Add config validation: refuse old-style `path: runs` values with migration message
+
+### Pass 2 — write path
+
+- Replace `.agentv/results/runs/` writes with direct writes to `<results.path>/runs/...`
+- `directPushResults` becomes the only write path (rename to `commitAndPushRun` since it's no longer just a "direct push" mode)
+- Add `Agentv-Run:` commit trailer
+- Drop `git checkout` from `updateCacheRepo` — only `git fetch --prune` remains
+- Rename `updateCacheRepo` → `fetchResultsRepo`
+
+### Pass 3 — read path
+
+- New `listResultFilesFromGitTree(repoDir, baseBranch)` using `git ls-tree` + `git cat-file --batch` on `benchmark.json` blobs
+- Replace `listResultFilesFromRunsDir` calls for remote runs with the new function
+- Detail view reads in `serve.ts` use `git cat-file -p <ref>:<path>` for committed runs
+- Working-tree readdir for in-progress runs (detected via `git status --porcelain`)
+- Drop `loadLightweightResults` enrichment loop in `handleRuns` — `benchmark.json` already has `target`, `experiment`, and `pass_rate`
+
+### Pass 4 — pagination
+
+- `/api/runs` accepts `limit` and `cursor` query params
+- Server slices the sorted list by cursor, returns `next_cursor`
+- `RunListResponse` gets `next_cursor?: string`
+- Studio: `runListOptions` → `infiniteQueryOptions`
+- `RunList.tsx`: flatten pages, add `IntersectionObserver` sentinel
+
+### Pass 5 — cleanup
+
+- Remove the entire P1 PR scope (closed PR #1260): `RunIndexEntry`, `appendToRunIndex`, `readRunIndex`, `reindexResultsRepo`, `agentv results reindex` command, `index/runs.jsonl` writes
+- Remove `localResults` listing — local-only mode is no longer supported
+- Remove `SourcedResultFileMeta.source` field — runs are no longer "local" or "remote", they're either committed or in-progress
+- Update docs site (`apps/web/src/content/docs/`)
+- Update skill files (`plugins/agentv-dev/skills/agentv-eval-builder/`)
+- Update examples that hardcoded `.agentv/results/runs/` paths
+
+## Breaking changes
+
+| Change | Impact |
+|--------|--------|
+| `results.repo` becomes required | Users without a results repo can't run evals until they configure one |
+| `results.path` repurposed (subdir → filesystem path) | Existing configs with `path: runs` fail loudly with migration message |
+| No more `.agentv/results/runs/` writes | Project-local results no longer exist; everything lives in the configured `path` |
+| `cache_dir` → `local_dir` in status responses | Studio + any external scripts reading status need to update |
+| `SourcedResultFileMeta.source` removed | Studio "source" badge becomes "in progress / shared" |
+
+Breaking changes accepted because no production users yet. Document in release notes; require fresh config to upgrade.
+
+## Test plan
+
+- Unit tests for `git ls-tree` + `git cat-file --batch` parsing helpers
+- Integration test that spins up a tmp git repo, writes runs via the new write path, lists via the new read path, asserts results
+- Pagination unit tests (cursor in/out of bounds, exact-boundary cases)
+- E2E: run an actual eval against a real (test-scoped) results repo, verify the commit lands with the `Agentv-Run:` trailer, `git ls-tree` shows the run, Studio renders it
+
+## Deferred to future PRs
+
+- **P5 zero-config same-repo mode** — write to `refs/agentv/runs/v1` in the source repo when no `results.repo` is configured. Independent feature; design pattern works the same.
+- **Multi-mode support** — if a cloud Studio gets built later, `mode: cloud` would mirror skillfully's "managed in Skillfully" mode. The current explicit `mode: github` field is the extension point.
+- **PR-based publishing** — for human-curated content. Eval results are machine-generated, so direct commit is correct. If users want review-before-merge for sensitive evals (e.g., regulatory benchmarks), add `share: auto-pr` later.
+- **In-memory list caching** — P2 from #1259. The git-object-DB read path is fast enough that caching is not needed today. Revisit if profiling shows it's a bottleneck.
+
+## Open implementation questions
+
+1. **Branch model**: `origin/main` or a dedicated `origin/agentv-runs/main`? Current vote: `main`, since this is a dedicated results repo.
+2. **What to do on `git fetch` failures during `agentv eval`**? Current vote: warn, proceed with stale local state, surface the error in Studio. Don't block the eval — local commit always works.
+3. **`gh` CLI dependency**: stays scoped to existing PR-related code paths. The new git-native flow uses raw `git` only.
+
+## What this PR does NOT do
+
+- Doesn't add a separate index file (the index IS the git tree)
+- Doesn't ship a `reindex` migration command (nothing to backfill — `benchmark.json` already exists per run)
+- Doesn't change the artifact format (`benchmark.json`, `index.jsonl`, per-test dirs stay as-is)
+- Doesn't add server-side caching (deferred)
+- Doesn't add PR-based publishing (deferred)
+- Doesn't touch the source repo's commit history (only the configured `results.repo`)

- Add `mode: 'github'` as required field to ResultsConfig
- Repurpose `results.path` as optional local filesystem path for clone
  (default: ~/.agentv/results/<slug>/); reject old-style subdir values
  (e.g. 'runs') with a migration message
- Rename ResultsRepoCachePaths → ResultsRepoLocalPaths
- Rename getResultsRepoCachePaths → getResultsRepoLocalPaths
- Rename cache_dir → local_dir in ResultsRepoStatus wire format
- normalizeResultsConfig: fill default path, expand ~, include mode
- Remove redundant local normalizeResultsConfig copy in remote.ts
- Update config-validator.ts to enforce mode and filesystem-path rule
- Update tests for new schema

Subject: [PATCH 03/17] fix(results): fix lint + update
 resolveResultsRepoRunsDir + serve tests

- Fix biome string-concat lint error (single template literal)
- resolveResultsRepoRunsDir: use normalized.path directly (new design)
- getResultsRepoStatus: check existsSync(normalized.path) for available,
  set local_dir to normalized.path
- serve.test.ts: update two tests to use mode:github schema and new
  default path layout (~/.agentv/results/<slug>/runs/...)

Subject: [PATCH 04/17] wip: initial git-native listing skeleton +
 implementation goal

- Added listGitRuns() using git ls-tree + cat-file --batch
- Improved batch parser
- Saved implementation goal document

This is early progress toward the full git-native results implementation.
More to come in follow-up commits.

+# Goal: Complete git-native-results PR (#1261)
+
+## Objective
+Implement the git-native results storage architecture and land PR #1261 as a clean, tested, manually verified change.
+
+## Success Criteria
+- All implementation passes completed per design doc
+- Full test suite green (unit + integration + existing 1782 core + 553 CLI tests)
+- E2E manual test using agent-browser against real test results repo
+- Red/green UAT documented before review
+- No regressions
+
+## Work Location
+- Worktree: `agentv.worktrees/git-native-results/`
+- Branch: `feat/git-native-results`
+
+## Key Decisions Confirmed
+- Dedicated results repo model → write directly to `main` of results repo (no separate branch needed)
+- Use raw `git` subprocess (not go-git) for ls-tree / cat-file path
+- Follow exact order in design doc
+
+## Non-Goals
+- P5 zero-config mode
+- Caching
+- Multi-mode beyond github
+
+## Verification
+1. Automated tests
+2. Manual agent-browser E2E in Studio
+3. Performance check with 500+ runs repo
+4. Lint + typecheck clean
+
+Owner: Agent + Chris T

-# AgentV
-
-**Evaluate AI agents from the terminal. No server. No signup.**
-
-```bash
-npm install -g agentv
-agentv init
-agentv eval evals/example.yaml
-```
-
-That's it. Results in seconds, not minutes.
-
-## What it does
-
-AgentV runs evaluation cases against your AI agents and scores them with deterministic code graders + customizable LLM graders. Everything lives in Git — YAML eval files, markdown judge prompts, JSONL results.
-
-```yaml
-# evals/math.yaml
-description: Math problem solving
-tests:
-  - id: addition
-    input: What is 15 + 27?
-    expected_output: "42"
-    assertions:
-      - type: contains
-        value: "42"
-```
-
-```bash
-agentv eval evals/math.yaml
-```
-
-## Why AgentV?
-
-- **Local-first** — runs on your machine, no cloud accounts or API keys for eval infrastructure
-- **Version-controlled** — evals, judges, and results all live in Git
-- **Hybrid graders** — deterministic code checks + LLM-based subjective scoring
-- **CI/CD native** — exit codes, JSONL output, threshold flags for pipeline gating
-- **Any agent** — supports Claude, Codex, Copilot, VS Code, Pi, Azure OpenAI, or any CLI agent
-
-## Quick start
-
-**1. Install and initialize:**
-```bash
-npm install -g agentv
-agentv init
-```
-
-**2. Configure targets** in `.agentv/targets.yaml` — point to your agent or LLM provider.
-
-**3. Create an eval** in `evals/`:
-```yaml
-description: Code generation quality
-tests:
-  - id: fizzbuzz
-    criteria: Write a correct FizzBuzz implementation
-    input: Write FizzBuzz in Python
-    assertions:
-      - type: contains
-        value: "fizz"
-      - type: code-grader
-        command: ./validators/check_syntax.py
-      - type: llm-grader
-        prompt: ./graders/correctness.md
-```
-
-**4. Run it:**
-```bash
-agentv eval evals/my-eval.yaml
-```
-
-**5. Compare results across targets:**
-```bash
-agentv compare .agentv/results/runs/<timestamp>/index.jsonl
-```
-
-## Output formats
-
-```bash
-agentv eval evals/my-eval.yaml                  # JSONL (default)
-agentv eval evals/my-eval.yaml -o report.html   # HTML dashboard
-agentv eval evals/my-eval.yaml -o results.xml   # JUnit XML for CI
-```
-
-## TypeScript SDK
-
-Use AgentV programmatically:
-
-```typescript
-import { evaluate } from '@agentv/core';
-
-const { results, summary } = await evaluate({
-  tests: [
-    {
-      id: 'greeting',
-      input: 'Say hello',
-      assertions: [{ type: 'contains', value: 'Hello' }],
-    },
-  ],
-});
-
-console.log(`${summary.passed}/${summary.total} passed`);
-```
