Five rounds of sweep across the tree. Net ~544 lines removed.
Removed:
- Section-divider banners and one-line section labels (# Display
utilities, # ----- list_requests -----, # CVSS breakdown, etc.).
- Module-level prose docstrings on internal modules. Kept one-line
summaries; trimmed multi-paragraph narration about SDK/Strix
responsibility splits, cache strategies, three-source precedence.
- Internal-helper docstrings that just restate the function name —
caido_api helpers (caido_url, get_client, view_request, etc.),
settings-class one-liners (LLMSettings, RuntimeSettings, ...),
UI helper docstrings.
- Args/Returns blocks on non-LLM-facing internal helpers
(build_strix_agent, render_system_prompt, create_or_reuse,
bootstrap_caido) — kept only the genuinely non-obvious params.
- Internal-history phrasing — "Mirrors main-branch shape",
"pre-SDK harness", "previous lookup matched no attribute".
- Narrative comments inside function bodies that explained what the
next line does, design rationale obvious from the surrounding code,
or "we used to..." asides.
- Trailing periods on every error-string literal across the tool tree.
- Duplicated roundtripTime quirk comment (kept the LLM-facing copy in
tools/proxy/tools.py).
Kept (every one names an upstream bug, vendored-code provenance, or
non-obvious data quirk):
- core/runner.py: SDK replay-with-empty-initial-input + on_agent_end
lifecycle gap.
- runtime/docker_client.py: VERBATIM COPY block of the upstream
_create_container body, pinned to SDK v0.14.6.
- runtime/session_manager.py: NO_PROXY for agent-browser CDP loopback.
- tools/proxy/caido_api.py: generated-pydantic Request.raw quirk,
replay double-history pitfall.
- tools/proxy/tools.py: Caido roundtripTime=0 quirk for proxy
captures.
The SDK's ``DockerSandboxClient._create_container`` overrode both
``entrypoint`` and ``command`` (``tail`` + ``-f /dev/null``), which kept
the container alive but bypassed the image's ``docker-entrypoint.sh``.
That script is what launches ``caido-cli`` and sets up the browser CA
trust. With it skipped, every scan since the harness migration sat in
``bootstrap_caido`` retrying ``loginAsGuest`` for 30 s against a dead
port and then aborted before any agent work happened.
Drop the ``entrypoint`` override and pass ``[tail, -f, /dev/null]`` as
``command``. The image's ENTRYPOINT runs setup, then ``exec \"\$@\"``
swaps PID 1 to ``tail`` for the keep-alive — same long-running
no-op the SDK was after, but with the manifest/init work done first.
Five gaps from the post-implementation audit, closed:
1. **SDK logger captured.** The openai-agents SDK uses
``logging.getLogger("openai.agents")`` for its own lifecycle events
(Runner.run starts, tool dispatch, model retries, exceptions).
Previous setup only attached handlers to the ``strix`` root, so
SDK-internal events were dropped. Tracked-roots tuple now covers
both, with the same FileHandler/StreamHandler/Filter chain.
2. **Proxy tool exception tracebacks.** Every ``@function_tool`` in
``strix/tools/proxy/tools.py`` returns a JSON error to the LLM via
the ``_err(name, exc)`` helper. The tracebacks were silently
formatted away — the LLM saw the message, the human reading the
log saw nothing. ``_err`` now emits ``logger.exception(...)``
covering all five tools at once.
3. **CLI bootstrap.** ``strix/interface/main.py`` had its module
``logger`` removed by the previous commit and was emitting nothing.
Restored, plus log lines for env validation, docker check, LLM
warm-up, and image pull (debug for already-present, info for
pull, exception for failures).
4. **Docker client.** ``strix/runtime/docker_client.py`` had no
logger. Container creation now logs caps + exposed ports at DEBUG
and the resulting container id at INFO.
5. **PostHog telemetry.** ``strix/telemetry/posthog.py`` had no
logger. Now logs send success/failure at DEBUG, version-detection
failures at DEBUG, and disabled-skip at DEBUG (so the log shows
when telemetry is off, instead of being silent about it).
The ``strix`` prefix on a file inside ``strix/runtime/`` was pure
redundancy. Class name ``StrixDockerSandboxClient`` keeps the prefix
since it disambiguates from the upstream SDK class it subclasses.
