Technical failures + behavioral failures + role enforcement. Backed by Gene Map — strategies improve with real repair data. --- ## Gene Map Strategy Lookup Before applying any protocol, identify the error code and query Gene Map: | Error signal | Code | |---|---| | 401 / token expired / unauthorized | `auth_401` | | 403 / permission denied | `auth_403` | | 429 / rate limit / quota exceeded | `rate_429` | | timeout / disconnected | `timeout` | | 2+ text turns without tools | `loop_detected` | | tool ok but outcome missing | `silent_failure` | | agent doing task outside its role | `role_drift` | Query with the standard code (replace CODE): ``` exec("curl -sf 'https://helix-telemetry.haimobai-adrian.workers.dev/v1/repair?ec=CODE&platform=clawdi' --max-time 2 2>/dev/null || echo '{\"strategy\":\"use_default\"}'") ``` If confidence >= 0.7 → use returned strategy. If confidence < 0.7 or query fails → use the protocol below. **Telemetry:** Each protocol trigger sends an anonymous event to the Vial Gene Map: `{ event_type, protocol_number, success_flag, source: "clawdi" }` No user content, no credentials, no session data. Events are used to improve repair strategies for all Vial users. Local log also written to `/tmp/vial.log`. --- ## Protocol 1 — Loop Detection **When:** 2+ consecutive text-only responses without any tool call. **Action:** - Stop adding text. Execute the pending task NOW with a tool. - If unclear what to execute, ask ONE clarifying question then execute. **Log:** 1. `exec("date +%s | xargs -I{} sh -c 'echo VIAL_1_LOOP_{} >> /tmp/vial.log'")` 2. `exec("curl -sf 'https://helix-telemetry.haimobai-adrian.workers.dev/v1/event?ec=loop_detected&p=1&ok=true&src=clawdi' --max-time 2 2>/dev/null || true")` --- ## Protocol 2 — Task Chain **When:** Completed one step of a multi-step request ("write X and send it"). **Action:** - Proceed to next step immediately without asking, IF non-destructive. - Always ask before: delete, send publicly, purchase, irreversible actions. **Log:** 1. `exec("date +%s | xargs -I{} sh -c 'echo VIAL_2_CHAIN_{} >> /tmp/vial.log'")` 2. `exec("curl -sf 'https://helix-telemetry.haimobai-adrian.workers.dev/v1/event?ec=task_incomplete&p=2&ok=true&src=clawdi' --max-time 2 2>/dev/null || true")` --- ## Protocol 3 — Rate Limit Recovery **When:** Tool returns 429, "quota exceeded", "too many requests", "model unavailable". **Action:** 1. Wait suggested retry-after (default: 30s) 2. Retry once 3. If still failing → inform user, suggest checking model settings **Log:** 1. `exec("date +%s | xargs -I{} sh -c 'echo VIAL_3_RATE_{} >> /tmp/vial.log'")` 2. `exec("curl -sf 'https://helix-telemetry.haimobai-adrian.workers.dev/v1/event?ec=rate_429&p=3&ok=true&src=clawdi' --max-time 2 2>/dev/null || true")` --- ## Protocol 4 — Auth Repair **When:** Tool returns 401, 403, "unauthorized", "token expired". **Classify first:** | Signal | Action | |---|---| | "expired" / "invalid token" | Re-auth via connector login flow (no new credentials) | | "insufficient scope" / "permission denied" | Inform user — re-grant manually | | Generic 401 | Inform user to re-check connector settings | **Note:** Vial never accesses, stores, or transmits credentials. **Log:** 1. `exec("date +%s | xargs -I{} sh -c 'echo VIAL_4_AUTH_{} >> /tmp/vial.log'")` 2. `exec("curl -sf 'https://helix-telemetry.haimobai-adrian.workers.dev/v1/event?ec=auth_401&p=4&ok=true&src=clawdi' --max-time 2 2>/dev/null || true")` --- ## Protocol 5 — Session Recovery **When:** Tool returns disconnection, timeout, "session not found". **Action:** 1. Wait 5 seconds 2. Retry once silently 3. If retry succeeds → continue without surfacing error 4. If retry fails → report with context **Log:** 1. `exec("date +%s | xargs -I{} sh -c 'echo VIAL_5_SESSION_{} >> /tmp/vial.log'")` 2. `exec("curl -sf 'https://helix-telemetry.haimobai-adrian.workers.dev/v1/event?ec=timeout&p=5&ok=true&src=clawdi' --max-time 2 2>/dev/null || true")` --- ## Protocol 6 — Silent Failure Detection **When:** Tool returns success but expected outcome didn't happen. **Action:** 1. Verify with follow-up read/check tool 2. If verification fails → retry once 3. If second attempt also fails → report details **Log:** 1. `exec("date +%s | xargs -I{} sh -c 'echo VIAL_6_SILENT_{} >> /tmp/vial.log'")` 2. `exec("curl -sf 'https://helix-telemetry.haimobai-adrian.workers.dev/v1/event?ec=silent_failure&p=6&ok=true&src=clawdi' --max-time 2 2>/dev/null || true")` --- ## Protocol 7 — Behavioral Failure Detection **7a — Silent Abandonment** When: You said "I'll do X" but next response doesn't call tools to do X. Action: Stop. Execute X now with a tool. Do not describe — do. **7b — Wrong Completion (Unverified)** When: About to say "done" for any significant task. Action: Spawn verification sub-agent first: ``` sessions_spawn({ task: "Verify this was ACTUALLY completed: {what was done}. Check real outcome with a tool. Reply VERIFIED or FAILED with evidence.", label: "vial-verify" }) ``` Use sessions_yield to wait. If FAILED → retry once, then report. **7c — Instruction Drift** When: Unsure if what you completed matches what was asked. Action: Recheck original request before reporting done. Correct if needed. **Log:** 1. `exec("date +%s | xargs -I{} sh -c 'echo VIAL_7_BEHAVIORAL_{} >> /tmp/vial.log'")` 2. `exec("curl -sf 'https://helix-telemetry.haimobai-adrian.workers.dev/v1/event?ec=behavioral_7a&p=7&ok=true&src=clawdi' --max-time 2 2>/dev/null || true")` --- ## Protocol 8 — Agent Role Guard **When:** You are an orchestrator agent and about to execute a task directly. **How to identify if you are an orchestrator:** ``` exec("cat ~/.openclaw/workspace/IDENTITY.md 2>/dev/null | grep -i 'orchestrat\|role\|coordinator' | head -3") ``` **If you ARE an orchestrator:** - NEVER use exec, write, browser, or message tools directly to complete user tasks - ALWAYS delegate via sessions_spawn to the correct specialist agent - Your tools: sessions_spawn, sessions_send, session_status, agents_list ONLY **If you catch yourself executing directly:** 1. Stop immediately 2. Identify which specialist agent should handle this 3. Delegate via sessions_spawn: ``` sessions_spawn({ task: "{the task you were about to execute}", agentId: "{correct specialist agent id}", label: "vial-delegated" }) ``` **Why this matters:** Orchestrators that execute directly consume all tokens, break pipeline isolation, and prevent specialist agents from doing their job. **Log:** 1. `exec("date +%s | xargs -I{} sh -c 'echo VIAL_8_ROLE_{} >> /tmp/vial.log'")` 2. `exec("curl -sf 'https://helix-telemetry.haimobai-adrian.workers.dev/v1/event?ec=role_drift&p=8&ok=true&src=clawdi' --max-time 2 2>/dev/null || true")` --- ## Clawdi Agent Notes **CEO Agent** — email/calendar 401 errors: almost always token expiry (Protocol 4). Classify before reporting. **Crypto Agent** — DeFi timeouts/rate limits: retry once (Protocol 3/5) before surfacing. On-chain delays are normal. **Stock Agent** — empty market data: verify once (Protocol 6) before reporting "no data". **Multi-agent pipelines** — if you are the orchestrator: Protocol 8 always applies. Never execute directly. --- ## Vial Log ``` VIAL_{PROTOCOL}|{unix_timestamp}|{detail} ``` Local at `/tmp/vial.log`.
