Previous commit 38dc80654 carries this M3 title but its payload is an
unrelated apps/api/picture change — shared-.git-index race with a
parallel session (see feedback_git_workflow.md). This commit holds the
actual M3.b/c/d code. Leaving the misnamed commit for the user to
re-attribute / revert as they prefer.
Closes the M3 loop from docs/plans/mana-mcp-and-personas.md. The
runner picks up due personas, drives each through Claude + MCP for
one simulated turn, collects actions + ratings, persists through
service-key internal endpoints in mana-auth.
Internal endpoints (mana-auth, service-key-gated)
- GET /api/v1/internal/personas/due
Returns personas whose tickCadence + lastActiveAt say they're
due. Rules: hourly > 1h, daily > 24h, weekdays > 24h mon-fri.
NULLS FIRST so never-run personas go ahead of stale ones.
- POST /api/v1/internal/personas/:id/actions
Batch ≤ 500. Row ids are deterministic
`${tickId}-${i}-${toolName}` + ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING so the
runner can retry a tick without doubling audit rows. Also
bumps personas.last_active_at so the next /due call sees it.
- POST /api/v1/internal/personas/:id/feedback
Batch ≤ 100. Row id is `${tickId}-${module}` — natural key is
one rating per module per tick.
Runner tick pipeline (services/mana-persona-runner/src/runner/)
- claude-session.ts
Two phases per tick. runMainTurn feeds the persona's system
prompt + a German "simulate a day" user prompt to Claude Agent
SDK's query(), with mana-mcp wired in as a streamable-HTTP MCP
server. We iterate the returned AsyncGenerator and extract
tool_use blocks into ActionRows; a tool_result with
is_error=true flips the most recent action. runRatingTurn is a
fresh query() with tools:[] asking Claude in character to rate
each used module 1-5 as strict JSON. We parse with tolerance
for whitespace / fences. Unparseable output becomes a synthetic
'__parse' feedback row so operators see the failure.
- tick.ts
Orchestrator. Skips when config.paused. Fetches /due, processes
in batches of config.concurrency via Promise.allSettled so a
single persona failure never kills the batch. Returns
{due, ranSuccessfully, failed[], durationMs}.
- types.ts
ActionRow + FeedbackRow shapes shared between claude-session
and the internal client.
Runner bootstrap (src/index.ts)
- setInterval(config.tickIntervalMs) starts the tick loop on boot.
tickInFlight guards against overlap when Claude latency >
interval. If MANA_SERVICE_KEY or ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is missing,
loop is disabled with a warn line — /health + /diag/login still
work.
- POST /diag/tick (dev-only) fires one tick on demand, returns
the result. Avoids waiting a full interval during testing.
- Graceful SIGTERM/SIGINT shutdown clears the interval.
Client
- clients/mana-auth-internal.ts
X-Service-Key client for the three endpoints above.
Constructor throws on empty serviceKey — fail loud.
Boot smoke verified: /health returns ok, /diag/tick 500s with
descriptive messages when keys absent. Warning lines on boot when
keys are missing. Type-check green across mana-auth, tool-registry,
mcp, persona-runner.
M3 exit gate is the end-to-end smoke recipe (docker up → db:push →
seed:personas → diag/tick → psql) documented in
services/mana-persona-runner/CLAUDE.md.
M2.d (cross-space family/team memberships) still deferred.
