feat(agentjournal): a handoff is a goal another agent can pick up - #63
Merged
Conversation
agent-runtime was a tested library with zero estate consumers, linked to GDS by gitlink and docs alone. Now the engine consumes it where its contract fits exactly: gds handoff checkpoints unfinished work for a next actor, and that is a Goal journal -- durable, revisioned, validated by agent-runtime itself, never a private dialect. Apply creates the goal (genesis create, then the store's own CAS update) and completes the checkpoint item with commit and file evidence; verify completes the verification item idempotently; both append handoff lifecycle events to a JSONL stream through the library's emitter. A journal failure is a finding beside a checkpoint that already exists, never a rollback of it. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01LsGid6U5RrQdFvJmvYdGCF
