- planner.py: LLMPlanningAgent offers exactly two tools, submit_plan
and ask_human, so gating stays structural at the tool layer; no
proceed tool exists. System prompt requires explicit, low-inference
plans because a weaker model executes them (A13)
- Model output is appended to the canonical log as it arrives, before
being interpreted, so a crash mid-planning leaves a truthful
transcript
- A bad turn (prose instead of a tool call, malformed arguments, or a
failed call) retries once, then raises PlanningError; the
orchestrator gates to AWAIT_INPUT rather than inventing a plan
- Orchestrator: appends every operator message, plan_submitted, and
gate_opened to the transcript, so re-planning sees rejection
feedback as conversation rather than out-of-band parameters; pins
the A11 role mapping at task start
- llm.py: non-JSON or non-object tool arguments now raise LLMError
instead of escaping as JSONDecodeError — observed from llama3.2,
which emits truncated argument strings
- Live planning test is opt-in on NISSE_LIVE_PLANNER_MODEL: planning
escalates unconditionally (A12) and the local model does not hold
the tool-call contract, so it awaits a frontier route
