Operator (2026-05-30): a cc-ci-authored compose overlay risks silent drift from the recipe users actually run — avoid it wherever possible. - plan.md §9 guardrail: when a recipe needs a cc-ci-env-tuned value (e.g. a longer healthcheck start_period for the slow single node), the preferred fix is an UPSTREAM recipe PR exposing it as an env var (e.g. APP_START_PERIOD) with the current value as the default in env.sample — CI sets the env, no new compose. For making the upgrade tier work from an older base version, prefer DECLARING that version not-testable under this CI env over crafting a custom compose. Overlay = last resort, Adversary-confirmed non-drifting + paired with the env PR. - plan-prefer-env-over-compose-overlay.md: migrates the existing debt — ghost/discourse compose.ccci-health.yml start_period -> APP_START_PERIOD recipe PRs (default=current) then drop the overlays; discourse image re-pin + mumble old-base host-ports copy -> declare those old versions untestable instead of forking compose. No test weakened; untestable-version is an honest outcome. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
cc-ci-autonomous-orchestrator
Orchestrator workspace for building the cc-ci Co-op Cloud recipe CI server. The plan, launch
tooling, and loop prompts live in cc-ci-plan/; see AGENTS.md for the
roles and operating model. Secrets (.testenv) are gitignored — never commit them.
Run the orchestrator in tmux (survives disconnects + closing your laptop)
Keep this supervising session alive on the host with tmux, and use --remote-control so you can
watch/steer it from claude.ai/code (or the mobile app).
# 0. Exit any running orchestrator session first — a conversation can't be resumed while it's live:
# /exit (inside Claude) or Ctrl-D
# 1. Start a detachable tmux session on this host
tmux new -s orchestrator
# 2. Inside tmux, resume the orchestrator conversation WITH remote control:
claude --resume autonomous-orchestrator \
--remote-control "autonomous-orchestrator" \
--dangerously-skip-permissions
# - If name-resume opens a picker instead of resuming directly, choose "autonomous-orchestrator".
# - Or resume by the stable session id (more deterministic in a fresh pane):
# claude --resume 34a80a99-b37e-4809-b8da-ccc9fafe785e \
# --remote-control "autonomous-orchestrator" --dangerously-skip-permissions
# 3. Detach — the process keeps running: press Ctrl-b, then d
Reconnect later
- On this host:
tmux attach -t orchestrator - From anywhere: claude.ai/code → the
autonomous-orchestratorsession
Why it survives: tmux keeps the claude process alive across SSH disconnects and your laptop
closing; remote-control runs outbound from this host to Anthropic, so it stays connected
regardless of the viewer. After a host reboot, re-run steps 1–2.
Two different "names":
--resume <name|id>selects the conversation to restore (shown in the/resumepicker); the--remote-control "<name>"value is only the web display label and resumes nothing. Resuming reuses the same session id each time (stays34a8…) — don't pass--fork-sessionunless you intend to branch a new conversation.Already inside a live session and just want the web surface? Run
/remote-control— no exit/resume.
Kick off / supervise the loops
cd /srv/cc-ci/cc-ci-plan
./launch.sh start # Builder + Adversary loops (interactive --remote-control in tmux) + watchdog
./launch.sh status # session + DONE state
./launch.sh logs builder|adversary|watchdog
./launch.sh stop
