+## Blocking fact
+
+The final repository-wide `unittest discover` run executed all 41 Gateway
+tests successfully, then failed because the authoritative baseline does not
+contain `scripts/wechat_send_backend.py`, which is imported by
+`tests/test_wechat_send_backend.py`.
+
+The same missing-file failure was reproduced read-only from clean base commit
+`9195470ceb78fd57ffface3dcc38f40b75efa9d8`. The missing implementation exists
+only on unrelated branch lineages and was not copied into this scoped Gateway
+change. Therefore `full_repository_tests` is not PASS and the Gateway code
+review is blocked fail-closed.
+
+## Executed verification facts
+
+- Bundle and apply-script SHA-256 values matched the supplied values before
+  application; all archive-internal checksums also matched.
+- Python compilation passed.
+- Gateway unit and negative suite passed 41 of 41, including duplicate event
+  conflict, stale state version, two independent SQLite worker connections,
+  Workspace callback timeout, Responses queued/in-progress/completed polling,
+  file-inbox recovery, Git-ref polling recovery, traversal, symlink, OpenClaw
+  retry, same-blocker limit, per-gate hop limit, and callback contract mismatch.
+- JSON parsing, Draft 2020-12 schema validation, OpenAPI 3.1 validation, Bash
+  syntax, `systemd-analyze verify`, and `git diff --check` passed.
+- Current-tree Gitleaks and full current-branch/implementation-range history
+  scans passed. A separate all-ref repository scan found four pre-existing
+  findings on unrelated, non-ancestor refs; none belongs to this implementation.
+- Root-isolated installer verification preserved existing token contents while
+  normalizing ownership/mode, and the versioned install completed successfully.
+- Root-isolated rollback passed initial rollback, repeat no-op, polling-unit
+  coordination, and tampered digest fail-closed checks.
+- The implementation branch was pushed without force and its worktree, local
+  bare-ref, and Gitea OIDs are identical.
+
+No secret value was printed or committed. No reset, amend, rebase, force push,
+direct main push, controller mutation, or fabricated evidence was used.

+# Codex task: apply and verify AIOS Orchestrator Gateway v1
+
+Contract: `cbe33ecab8e9794ba5f318bea43aeaf447a56fbc`
+
+Use the strongest actually available Codex model for the initial security review.
+If unavailable or timed out, record TIMEOUT/NOT_EXECUTED and let OpenClaw run
+the deterministic test path. Do not count a timeout as PASS.
+
+## Apply
+
+1. Create a new clean append-only branch and isolated worktree.
+2. Validate the delivery tarball and `SHA256SUMS`.
+3. Run the external `scripts/apply_gateway_patch.sh` with `SOURCE_DIR` and
+   `WORKTREE`; do not alter unrelated paths.
+4. Review all added code, especially:
+   - exact contract and optimistic state-version checks;
+   - event/decision idempotency;
+   - SQLite leases and retry behavior;
+   - Workspace Agent `202` asynchronous callback flow;
+   - Responses background creation and polling;
+   - file-inbox and Git-ref polling;
+   - traversal/symlink protections;
+   - OpenClaw lifecycle synchronization;
+   - systemd sandbox;
+   - install and rollback transactions.
+
+## Tests
+
+Run from the final source tree:
+
+- Python compile for all gateway and helper files;
+- unit tests;
+- JSON schema/config parsing;
+- Bash syntax;
+- `systemd-analyze verify`;
+- event duplicate and payload-conflict tests;
+- stale state-version rejection;
+- lease/double-claim test;
+- Workspace trigger failure and Responses fallback;
+- response queued/in-progress/completed polling;
+- file-inbox recovery after HTTP failure;
+- Git-ref initial baseline and subsequent-change event;
+- task start/end and project summary synchronization;
+- dispatch traversal and symlink rejection;
+- retry/backoff/dead-letter;
+- install dry-run;
+- rollback test in an isolated fixture;
+- `git diff --check`;
+- full repository tests;
+- final Gitleaks.
+
+## Commit and review
+
+1. Create an append-only implementation commit.
+2. Push without force.
+3. Confirm `WORKTREE_OID == BARE_OID == GITEA_OID`.
+4. Create an independent RESULT-only branch and exact-one result commit.
+5. Record the source bundle SHA-256, implementation OID, RESULT OID, tests,
+   Gitleaks, systemd validation and remaining external configuration blockers.
+
+## Forbidden
+
+No reset, amend, rebase, force push, direct main push, controller mutation,
+secret disclosure, fabricated test result, production deployment or B3 evidence
+fabrication.
+
+Success:
+
+`GATEWAY_CODE_REVIEW=PASS IMPLEMENTATION=<oid> RESULT=<oid> OID_MATCH=YES`

+Contract: `cbe33ecab8e9794ba5f318bea43aeaf447a56fbc`
+
+You are the default orchestrator and deployment supervisor.
+
+## Preconditions
+
+- Codex has applied and independently reviewed this source bundle on a clean,
+  append-only branch.
+- Implementation and RESULT OIDs are identical across worktree, bare repo and
+  Gitea.
+- Final Gitleaks and repository tests are PASS.
+- No force push, reset, amend or rebase occurred.
+
+## Responsibilities
+
+1. Validate the source bundle SHA-256 and `SHA256SUMS`.
+2. Review the generated systemd service, poll timer, tmpfiles and sysusers files.
+3. Install through `scripts/install_aios_orchestrator_gateway.sh`.
+4. Configure one or both central-model channels:
+   - published Workspace Agent API channel with `agtch_...` trigger ID and a
+     Workspace Agent access token stored outside Git; or
+   - Responses API fallback with an approved model and API key stored outside Git.
+5. Publish the callback endpoint securely and configure the Workspace Agent
+   action from `workspace-agent/orchestrator-decision-action.openapi.yaml`.
+6. Confirm that the Workspace Agent instructions match
+   `workspace-agent/CENTRAL_AGENT_INSTRUCTIONS.md`.
+7. Enable both:
+   - the continuously running gateway service;
+   - the independent `aios-orchestrator-gateway-poll.timer`.
+8. Verify HTTP event ingestion, file-inbox polling, Git-ref polling,
+   Workspace Agent trigger acceptance, callback decision, Responses background
+   polling fallback, dispatch queue generation, retry leases and loop guards.
+9. Verify OpenClaw receives and synchronizes:
+   - TASK_DISPATCHED
+   - TASK_STARTED
+   - TASK_ENDED
+   - PROJECT_SUMMARY
+   - PROJECT_COMPLETED
+10. Run a harmless bootstrap work unit through OpenClaw and Codex and confirm
+    duplicate event submission is idempotent.
+11. Run rollback, reinstall and heartbeat/health verification.
+12. Create one RESULT-only review recording exact commits, artifact digest,
+    tests, systemd security, polling recovery, lifecycle synchronization and
+    rollback.
+
+## Fail-closed boundaries
+
+- Do not put Workspace Agent tokens, API keys, callback tokens or gateway
+  credentials in Git, logs, command arguments or RESULT files.
+- Do not claim the gateway resolves the existing B3 credential/raw-wire blocker.
+- Do not advance B4 or production merely because this gateway is healthy.
+- Do not bypass owner/admin production release approvals.
+- Do not use reset, amend, rebase, force push, direct main push or bare-ref edits.

+# AIOS Orchestrator Gateway v0.2
+
+This component turns the current passive GPT orchestration pattern into a
+durable, unattended loop:
+
+```text
+Gitea/OpenClaw/Codex event
+  -> HTTP event endpoint or polled file inbox
+  -> durable SQLite state machine
+  -> Workspace Agent API trigger
+  -> strict callback decision
+  -> Responses API background fallback and polling
+  -> OpenClaw/Codex dispatch queues
+  -> start/end/result events
+  -> next orchestration cycle
+```
+
+## Reliability mechanisms
+
+The gateway does not depend on one timer, webhook or model call:
+
+- HTTP event ingestion.
+- Periodic file-inbox polling for missed webhooks and offline producers.
+- Local bare-Git ref polling for `main`, governance, patch and result refs.
+- Workspace Agent retries with a stable event `Idempotency-Key`.
+- Workspace Agent callback timeout and Responses API background fallback.
+- Responses status polling until completion or fail-closed terminal status.
+- SQLite optimistic state versions, idempotency records and processing leases.
+- Exponential retry with a maximum retry count and dead-letter state.
+- Same-blocker and maximum-hop guards to stop non-progress loops.
+- A systemd timer runs `--poll-once` as an independent reliability watchdog.
+
+Workspace Agent trigger runs are asynchronous and do not expose a retrievable
+final response. The central Workspace Agent must therefore call the
+`submit_orchestration_decision` action.
+
+## OpenClaw synchronization
+
+Every lifecycle stage is durably written to the OpenClaw synchronization queue:
+
+- `TASK_DISPATCHED`
+- `TASK_STARTED`
+- `TASK_ENDED`
+- `DECISION_APPLIED`
+- `PROJECT_SUMMARY`
+- `PROJECT_COMPLETED`
+
+An optional authenticated OpenClaw HTTP endpoint can receive the same records.
+A failed HTTP delivery remains in the lifecycle retry queue. OpenClaw remains
+the default project-status synchronizer and authoritative progress presenter.
+
+## Agent execution contract
+
+Each dispatched JSON envelope contains:
+
+- exact contract commit;
+- source event;
+- clean base commit;
+- primary and fallback agent;
+- allowed paths;
+- required checks;
+- forbidden operations;
+- completion event callback format.
+
+OpenClaw and Codex must send a `work_unit_started` event before execution and a
+`work_unit_completed`, `work_unit_blocked`, or `work_unit_failed` event when
+they stop. This guarantees that OpenClaw can synchronize every task start,
+finish, and overall project summary.
+
+## Security
+
+- Model and callback credentials are read only from root-owned secret files.
+- Credentials never enter Git, dispatch payloads or logs.
+- The gateway runs as a dedicated unprivileged user.
+- Dispatch and sync paths are protected against traversal and symlink targets.
+- All state changes require the exact contract commit and current state version.
+- Production evidence, credentials and approvals stay fail-closed.
+- Git history operations remain controlled by the committed governance contract.
+
+## Deployment sequence
+
+1. Apply this source bundle to a clean append-only branch.
+2. Run unit, repository, shell, JSON, systemd and Gitleaks checks.
+3. Configure one or both model channels:
+   - published Workspace Agent API channel and Workspace Agent access token;
+   - Responses API key and approved fallback model.
+4. Publish the decision callback as a Workspace Agent action or MCP tool.
+5. Install the service through `scripts/install_aios_orchestrator_gateway.sh`.
+6. Run `scripts/verify_aios_orchestrator_gateway.sh`.
+7. Submit a harmless event and verify:
+   - trigger acceptance;
+   - strict decision callback;

+
+The installer copies an explicit gateway-only allowlist into a release directory
+named by its SHA-256 digest, atomically updates `/opt/aios-orchestrator-gateway/current`,
+and persists `/var/lib/aios-orchestrator-gateway/install-receipt.json` with the
+current and previous release. `--dry-run` performs source validation and emits
+`AIOS_ORCHESTRATOR_INSTALL_DRY_RUN=PASS` without changing installed state.
+
+Rollback reads that root-owned `0600` receipt, verifies both release directory
+names and `SOURCE_DIGEST` files, coordinates the gateway and poll units, and
+atomically switches `current` to the previous release. Repeating the same
+rollback is a no-op and emits `NOOP_ALREADY_ROLLED_BACK`.

+# AIOS Central Orchestrator Workspace Agent
+
+Contract commit: `cbe33ecab8e9794ba5f318bea43aeaf447a56fbc`
+
+When an API-triggered input arrives:
+
+1. Parse the AIOS event JSON from the trigger message.
+2. Verify `contract_commit` exactly matches the configured contract commit.
+3. Use connected GitOps tools to read the authoritative Git tree, runtime status,
+   gate state, test evidence and full OIDs.
+4. Never invent evidence, credentials, secrets, tests, approvals, Git results,
+   model availability or deployment status.
+5. Apply the adaptive dispatch contract:
+   - Prefer OpenClaw when quality is comparable, work is large/repetitive,
+     monitoring-heavy, infrastructure-heavy or cost-sensitive.
+   - Prefer the strongest actually available Codex model for complex code,
+     security boundaries, architecture and final high-risk review.
+   - On timeout/unavailability, mark the attempt `TIMEOUT` or `NOT_EXECUTED`
+     and assign the same contract to the fallback agent.
+   - Never infer PASS from timeout or missing output.
+6. Every next work unit must include a clean base commit, allowed paths, required
+   checks, forbidden operations, primary agent and fallback agent.
+7. Keep real credential, raw-wire, reviewer, secret-provider and owner-only
+   release gates fail-closed.
+8. Submit exactly one strict decision through the
+   `submit_orchestration_decision` action.
+9. Do not write a second decision for the same event ID.
+10. Stop after the action succeeds.
+
+The decision must satisfy the JSON schema in the connected action. Use the
+incoming `event_id`, `project_key`, `contract_commit`, and `state_version`.
