Initial Codebase Assessment — coulomb-loop

Date: 2026-06-18 Assessor: kaizen-agentic supplier session (automated + repo scan) Domain: coulomb_social State Hub: registered (coulomb-loop, topic coulomb-social)

Executive summary

coulomb-loop is a greenfield customer engagement repository created to operate Coulomb's fleet self-improvement loops with kaizen-agentic as supplier. At assessment time the repo contains intent and planning artefacts only — no runtime code, no .kaizen/ state, no synced ActivityDefinitions, and no active loop executions. That is correct for the engagement model: this repo is a contract and operations layer, not an application.

Registration with state-hub completed on 2026-06-18. Four workplans (LOOP-WP-0001–0004) are indexed with 30 hub tasks. Automation path is clear; blockers are cross-repo (activity-core resolver, pilot opt-in on target repos).

Repository inventory

Path Present Notes
INTENT.md yes Customer/supplier model, four loops, cadence ramp
SCOPE.md stub → filled Was register script stub; now aligned to INTENT
README.md yes One-liner only; sufficient for now
workplans/LOOP-WP-0001..0004 yes Synced to state-hub (4 workstreams)
registry/ yes reuse-surface scaffold; 0 capabilities
activity-definitions/ no Planned in LOOP-WP-0001 T04
loops/ no Planned in LOOP-WP-0004 T02
docs/adr/ no Created in this session
history/ this file
.claude/rules/ yes Generated by register_project.sh; needs content
CLAUDE.md yes Generated; imports rules
.kaizen/ no Not expected in customer repo (lives in target repos)

Language / stack: Markdown-first coordination repo. No package manifest. Verification: git diff --check, state-hub make fix-consistency REPO=coulomb-loop.

Ecosystem context (assessed 2026-06-18)

State Hub fleet

  • 57 repos registered (including coulomb-loop)
  • 12 domains; coulomb-loop under coulomb_social alongside vergabe-teilnahme
  • 49+ repos document state-hub session protocol in agent instructions

Reuse-surface

  • 53 repos with registry/ federation participation
  • coulomb-loop has empty registry scaffold (expected for engagement repo)

kaizen-agentic (supplier)

  • 20 agents across 7 categories
  • ADR-005 schedule contract shipped (schedule init|validate|list|prepare)
  • 5 ActivityDefinition drafts in supplier repo (enabled: false)
  • discover_kaizen_scheduled_repos resolver not yet in activity-core

activity-core (scheduler)

  • Active jobs: weekly-sbom-staleness, weekly-coding-retro
  • the-custodian: daily-statehub-wsjf-triage (enabled)
  • No kaizen loop definitions synced yet

Target-repo readiness (pilot)

Repo .kaizen/schedule.yml .kaizen/metrics/ Registry
kaizen-agentic absent absent yes
the-custodian absent absent yes
activity-core absent absent yes

Gap: pilot repos need schedule init + memory init (LOOP-WP-0001 T03).

Workplan status at assessment

ID Title Hub tasks Blocker
LOOP-WP-0001 Kaizen improvement stack 8 open activity-core resolver
LOOP-WP-0002 Reactive quality escalation 7 open LOOP-WP-0001 metrics scaffold
LOOP-WP-0003 Registry hygiene 7 open shell resolver for reuse-surface
LOOP-WP-0004 Loop regulator 8 open LOOP-WP-0001–0003 health data

Supplier track: KAIZEN-WP-0008 (kaizen-agentic) created in same session.

Automation posture

Ready for automation today:

  • state-hub registration and workplan sync (fix-consistency)
  • workplan-driven task tracking (30 hub tasks)
  • kaizen-agentic schedule prepare on target repos (once schedule exists)
  • reuse-surface validate / report gaps (CLI, manual or shell resolver)

Requires cross-repo automation (not in coulomb-loop):

Capability Owner Status
discover_kaizen_scheduled_repos activity-core spec only
discover_kaizen_projects shell resolver activity-core referenced, unverified
kaizen.metrics.recorded NATS event kaizen-agentic + activity-core spec only
reuse_surface_report_gaps resolver activity-core proposed in LOOP-WP-0003
Hourly cron definitions activity-core drafts in coulomb-loop pending

Automation principle adopted: coulomb-loop commits definition copies and roster declarations; activity-core owns trigger firing. No Temporal code in customer repo (ADR-002).

Risks

  1. Hourly cadence noise — mitigated by LOOP-WP-0004 regulator and phased ramp.
  2. Workplan prefix mismatch — register script derived COULOMB-WP; engagement uses LOOP-WP (ADR-001 documents choice).
  3. topic_id was null at register — patched to coulomb-social topic post-register.
  4. Pilot scope creep — decision needed on fleet vs custodian-only pilot (DEC-001).

Recommended next actions (automated where possible)

  1. Register in state-hub (done)
  2. Fill loops/kaizen-stack/roster.yaml (LOOP-WP-0001 T02)
  3. kaizen-agentic schedule init on pilot repos (LOOP-WP-0001 T03)
  4. Copy ActivityDefinitions to activity-definitions/ (LOOP-WP-0001 T04)
  5. Open activity-core handoff PR checklist (LOOP-WP-0001 T05)
  6. Resolve open decisions in docs/decisions/ before fleet expansion
