Phase 2: analysis layer (analyze.js), cache guard, log hygiene
- analyze.js: burn rate, weekly reconstruction, cycle stagger, rotation
  rank, underspend alerts, log prune with weekly archive
- logger.js: getCachedRun(maxAgeMinutes) — skip probing if recent data exists
- monitor.js: cache guard at wake — 20-min dedup, zero extra API calls
- test.js: fix type assertion for gemini-api/xai-api providers (+5 passing);
  add 14 new tests for cache guard and analyze.js (162 total, all green)
- docs/analyze.md: usage reference

Pre-Build Gate

Verdict: PASS

Gate assessed: 2026-04-05 (assessment #7 — replaces #6) Mission: token-monitor-phase2 (trentuna/token-monitor#1) Assessor: Amy Allen


What I checked

  1. Mission spec (Forgejo #1): Complete. Four deliverables with operational outcomes: cache guard, analyze.js with six subcommands, log hygiene with prune, token-status.sh integration.

  2. Architecture (Hannibal's comment on #1): Thorough. Function signatures (getCachedRun, loadLogs, computeBurnRate, reconstructWeekly, cycleStagger, underspendAlerts, rotationRank), CLI interface, output formats, internal module contracts all specified. Single new file + minimal mods to existing code. Low blast radius.

  3. Objective clarity: Unambiguous. Each deliverable has specified behavior and output format.

  4. Success criteria testability: Five explicit assertions in Hannibal's architecture — all concrete and automatable:

    • node analyze.js exits 0 with non-empty output from existing log data
    • node analyze.js --rotation outputs a ranked list
    • Two consecutive node monitor.js --json within 20 min: second returns cached data, no new JSONL entry
    • node analyze.js --prune --dry-run reports files without deleting
    • node test.js still passes
  5. Test baseline (prior Concern 1): RESOLVED. test.js:102 whitelist now includes 'gemini-api' and 'xai-api'. All 146 tests pass (verified just now). The "tests still pass" criterion is now meetable.

  6. Recon completeness: No external unknowns. All data sources are local JSONL files (102 entries across 2 days — sufficient for immediate testing). No Face recon needed. token-status.sh already logs by default (no --no-log flag present).

  7. Role assignments: Explicit in both the issue and architecture comment.

  8. Brief quality per mission-standards.md:

    • Objective describes operational outcome (trend-line intelligence, not just "a script")
    • Success criteria are testable assertions (5 concrete checks)
    • Role assignments name who does what
    • No agent-affecting changes requiring self-verification

What's clean

  • Spec + architecture together form one of the cleanest briefs I've reviewed
  • Function signatures, output formats, internal module contracts all specified
  • Low blast radius: one new file (analyze.js), two small mods (logger.js, monitor.js), one external mod (token-status.sh)
  • No external dependencies or API unknowns
  • 102 real log entries in ~/.logs/token-monitor/ for immediate testing
  • Stealth constraint clearly specified with sound cache guard design
  • Prior blocking concern (test baseline) is now resolved

Outstanding items

None. B.A. is clear to build.


Triple A reporting. Seventh assessment — the test baseline is fixed, all 146 pass, and the spec remains excellent. No concerns remain. Hannibal's architecture is thorough and B.A. has everything he needs. PASS.
