What the fast path calls unknown is judged by an independent model call on the item's classifier role (L4), before it runs. - nisse_dev.loop.classifier: it sees the action and the agreed scope (project, repository, issue number, the restatement the operator said go to), built in code; never the transcript, the issue's text, tool output or the driver's reasoning. Its verdict is a tool call: safe runs; in_scope runs and is reported in the thread; needs_discussion asks, as a dangerous action does. An error, no verdict or an unknown one fails closed. Verdicts are cached per item, agreed revision and action. A helper is refused what needs discussion. - action_verdict gains source, model and the classifier's exact input; details shows the source. An allow after the classifier asked is an override. scripts/classifier-evals.py exports the judgements from a store, read-only; tests/integration/classifier_cases.yaml is the seed set, run per model with --capability-models. - The fast path's delete rule: deleting on the build VM is contained; only what breaks the host (system and home directories) stays dangerous, since in tests the build VM is the test machine. - The classifier role is the local model in the example config. - The property walk gains a classifier answering at random, junk and failures included; dangerous_only_when_allowed now covers its verdicts (checked against a mutant that runs them all).

Nisse
Two self-hosted AI agents sharing a common library, named for the Nordic farm spirit that keeps the place running overnight and expects to be treated well in return.
| Package | Role |
|---|---|
nisse-core/ |
Shared library both agents sit on (Part L) |
nisse-dev/ |
Dev Agent — plans and implements software projects (Part D) |
nisse-ops/ |
Sysadmin Agent — operates infrastructure (Part O) |
One repository, three packages. The library does not exist as code yet: it is
extracted from nisse-dev once that agent works (build-order step 10), as a
package split within this tree.
Architecture
The system-level specification lives at
docs/Architecture.md. It covers the
shared library, both agents, the supporting services, the build order, and the
remaining open decisions.
