push-ungated

A deny rule: it refuses a push at a commit with no green gate: the person is asked, a leased worker refused, and names what to run instead.

What it catches

A push at a commit with no green gate: the person is asked, a leased worker refused.

Why

The advisory this replaced fired on EVERY push, having read nothing: it told a caller who had just gated and a caller who had never gated the same sentence, which is a toll rather than a reminder. This one reads the run log, so the finding is a fact: which invocations ran the gate, which commit each was built from, and how it finished. That is what makes stopping the call legitimate here where the rest of this tier only advises. It matches on the COMMIT and not the exact tree, deliberately: an exact match would expire on the first comment typo after a green run, which is the delta the cadence already says to push, and a rule that fires there is one people route around. Publishing work in progress is legitimate and indistinguishable from an oversight, so a session no job lease binds gets the verdict ask: the host's own approval prompt puts the push in front of the person, and approving it publishes. A marker the agent types is not consent, so nothing it says clears this. A session bound to a lease is a worker, and workers do not publish: it gets deny, and nobody is asked.

Seeing it

A verdict names its rule in brackets, which is how you got here:

deny [push-ungated]: ...

magus describe rule push-ungated prints the same entry at a terminal, and magus describe rules lists every rule this workspace enforces.

Glossary

Workspace

The magus root directory that owns a set of projects and shared config; the unit magus operates over. See workspace.

Op

A single tool-native command a target composes (long form: operation); the middle of the work hierarchy (Spell to Op to Target). See operations.

Session

An agent host's conversation, by the id the host delivers to its hooks. magus never mints one: a record with no session is unattributed, and the OS user it carries says whose account ran it.

Invocation

One magus process's recorded facts - the targets it finished, their outcomes, the lease it acted as, and the session it ran in when a host delivered one - kept in a repo-scoped store every worktree shares. magus session lists them; the store prunes itself by last-fact age.

Job

The unit of delegated work, and one row of the job store: what an orchestrating agent handed out, with its goal, the checkpoint it was cut against, the paths it may write or must not touch, and the one check it runs. A job's holder is either a session, for work an orchestrator handed out, or the server, for its own maintenance. The store records; the agent guard is what reads those facts back when grading a write. See doctrine.

A job is not a run. magus run build web is a run, and no job exists for it. A job causes runs: its check executes as one, and a server job records the invocation of its last one. Jobs are listed with magus ls jobs and in the console's Jobs view; runs are listed in the Runs view.

Run

One target executing under one magus invocation, such as magus run test web or magus affected ci. A run keeps its captured output behind an output reference. Every magus run is a run whether or not any job asked for it; see Job for how the two relate.

Lease

The grant a holder takes on a job: the write and read paths that job declared, enforced in the checkout that took it with magus job exec. A job is the piece of work; a lease is permission over it.

Advisor

One read-only check from the advice suite: it reads the changeset through magus and writes one titled section of findings. The same advisors run as a pull request comment in CI and inside magus diff --impact locally.
