feat: community conductor (the Ears) — hear + answer user-filed issues#122
Merged
Conversation
…119) Birth of the community conductor — the organism's receptive language function: it hears the community (user-filed GitHub issues across every repos.yaml repo) and drafts what the organism says back; the human remains the mouth. Wernicke to the Workspace Agent's Broca/Voice (#118). - agents/conductors/community/{AGENTS.md,community.sh,_community.py}: two read-only, stdlib-only modes — scan (open external issues over the repos.yaml homes, bot-filtered, awaiting-response detection ranked by waiting time) and triage <issue-ref> (context-sufficiency signals + clarifying-question seeds + comment tail). Never posts, labels or writes; COMMUNITY_GH / COMMUNITY_SELF overrides keep tests hermetic. - bin/pyauto-brain: dispatch map, description, CONDUCTOR_ORDER; AGENTS.md command surface regenerated via install.sh --write-agents-surface. - skills/community/{SKILL.md,community.md}: the /community door — the session drafts every outward reply for human approval; actionable work routes via /start_dev_for_user (which owns the comment templates). - skills/wake_up/wake_up.md: the community sensory leg — scan step in the gh-API tier + 💬 Community digest category (never auto-reply). - skills/COMMANDS.md + AGENTS.md: tier-1 registration. - tests/test_community_conductor.py: 6 hermetic contract tests (stub gh + fabricated repos.yaml; proves no mutating endpoint is hit, no file writes). Tests: 75 passed. Live-verified: scan found 5 external issues awaiting response (54d waiting); triage on PyAutoLens#531 detected 4/5 signals. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Births the community conductor — the Ears, the organism's receptive language function (Wernicke to the Workspace Agent's Broca/Voice, #118): deterministic read-only surfaces over the community's GitHub issues, with every outward reply drafted in the
/communitysession and gated on the human. Delivers both legs of the founding prompt: the dedicated listening/communicating agent and the/wake_upsummary of what the community is waiting on. Closes #119.API Changes
New Brain CLI verb + skill; no Python library API is touched.

Ship gate (recorded)
Heart RED at ship time — six reasons, all unrelated to this branch (parallel-session PyAutoLens dirt, stale 2026-07-09 workspace validation, 58 stale parked scripts, tenant-firewall manifest drift ×2, install verification not run, release validation stale after the 2026-07-15 release). Human acknowledged and authorized PR-open only; merge stays human — same pattern as workspace-agent #118 earlier today.
