An exhausted budget was a special case of something more general: the work is not at fault. A network blip, a timeout, a 5xx from the proxy, or a rate limit that did not clear all leave a delegation branch that may be perfectly good, and discarding it would throw away work for a reason that has nothing to do with the work. UpstreamUnavailable now names that family, with BudgetExhausted a member of it — distinguishable where the difference matters, since a budget will not clear within the hour while a network blip will. A delegation stopped by any of them is "interrupted": branch kept, intent left pending, and A3's resume rule picks it up. The benefit of the doubt stops at the server's own door. A 4xx that is not a rate limit means the request itself was wrong, and preserving branches on the strength of one would hide a real bug — so those still fail and clean up.

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 A) |
nisse-dev/ |
Dev Agent — plans and implements software projects (Part B) |
nisse-ops/ |
Sysadmin Agent — operates infrastructure (Part C) |
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-Build-Spec.md. It covers the
shared library, both agents, the supporting services, the build order, and the
remaining open decisions.
