| Last touched | 2026-08-10 |
Acceptance
Plan
(Implementation strategy. Written when work starts; key decisions
are distilled into the parent story's * Decisions at close, but the
plan itself stays — it is the historical record of what we did.)

Review
| # | Comment summary | File | Decision | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | download-output has no modeled rule; fetch_output returns InputBundle | doc/llm/specs/shell-compute-grid-management.allium | Accepted | Added FetchOutputBundle rule and OperatorDownloadsOutput trigger; renamed InputBundle to Bundle. allium check clean; plan now 59 obligations. |
| 2 | SmokeTestExercisesEveryOnlineNode not point-in-time scoped | doc/llm/specs/shell-compute-grid-management.allium | Accepted | Moved the property into BatchDrains as a drain-time requires guard; removed the standing-state invariant. A host back online after the run no longer trips it. |
| 3 | Read-verbs task filename breaks the sibling naming pattern | task_implement_shell-compute-grid-management.org | Accepted | Renamed to task_read-verbs.org. |
| 4 | FOMC spec convention not visible on main | PR description | Declined | The convention lives on the unmerged branch feature/fomc-calendar-event-model; this PR mirrors it so both land consistently. |
Result
The scaffold is merged. It contains:
- Story scaffold: goal, acceptance and out-of-scope prose for "Manage the compute grid from the shell"; the scaffolding task plus the five real tasks (read verbs, job lifecycle, grid monitoring, artifact downloads, smoke-test script); the sprint 25 row wired to STARTED.
- The Allium spec (doc/llm/specs/shell-compute-grid-management.allium), following the FOMC convention. allium check clean; allium plan derives 59 test obligations.
- PR #1947: raised, reviewed, one review round addressed (output- download rule and trigger added, smoke coverage scoped to the drain transition, task file renamed to task_read-verbs.org; the FOMC convention note declined as accurate), and merged.
