buzz-unbriefed

An advisory by default: it explains, and blocks nothing, on the first Buzz a session authors, by file write or magus buzz -e, before reading the Buzz skill.

What it catches

The first Buzz a session authors, by file write or magus buzz -e, before reading the Buzz skill.

Why

Buzz is in no model's training data, so what gets written is Go or TypeScript with the serial numbers filed off, and enough of it parses to reach review. Typical errors of an agent with this repository open throughout: fs\glob indexed as strings when it returns [Path]; .append on a list declared without mut; the ternary form, which upstream-strict parsing rejects outside --embedded; archive\extract, which does not exist; a missing import "fs"; and .sub sliced by character on BYTE-indexed strings. Reading first supplies every one of them. It grades the session, not the file: one Skill(magus-buzz-lang) and every later Buzz write passes. Reads are never gated, since reading is how the language gets learned, so magus buzz <file> and magus buzz -t <file> run something that already exists and go untouched.

Default and override

By default this rule takes the decision advise. A workspace sets it by name, in its root magusfile, to deny, advise or off:

magus\guard.builtins({"buzz-unbriefed": "deny"})

A loosening takes effect once it is committed; a tightening applies at once.

Seeing it

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

advise [buzz-unbriefed]: ...

magus describe rule buzz-unbriefed 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.

Magusfile

The magusfile.buzz that declares a project's targets (as export funs) and binds its spells. See targets.

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.

Buzz

The language magusfiles are written in (the .buzz engine). See engines.

CI

An ordinary magusfile-defined target you compose yourself with magus\needs: magus does not hardcode its stages. Magus.RunCI treats it specially only in that it strips the rw charm, it is the anchor magus affected ci keys off, and a selected scope with no project declaring it is a load error rather than a silent no-op. See targets.

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.

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.

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.

Conventions

Placeholders

Angle brackets mark a value you replace with your own; never type the brackets:

magus run <target>
magus completion <shell>    # e.g. bash, zsh, fish

<target>, <path>, <shell>, <name> and the like are stand-ins, not literal text.
