State Hub Integration

The Custodian State Hub tracks work across all domains. Interact via HTTP REST — there is no MCP server for Codex agents.

Context	URL
Local workstation	http://127.0.0.1:8000
Remote via tunnel	http://127.0.0.1:18000
Optional local edge relay	http://127.0.0.1:18080

When an operator has enabled the edge relay, set API_BASE to the relay URL. Queueable writes return an explicit queued receipt if the central hub is unreachable. Treat that as pending local evidence, then ask the operator to run statehub outbox status/replay after connectivity returns.

Orient at session start

# Offline brief — works without hub connection
cat .custodian-brief.md

# Active workplans for this domain
curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8000/workplans/?topic_id=084430ab-c630-48dc-9e1d-d07d1e8fce3c&status=active" \
  | python3 -m json.tool

# Check inbox
curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8000/messages/?to_agent=direkt-vermittlung-de&unread_only=true" \
  | python3 -m json.tool

Mark a message read:

curl -s -X PATCH "http://127.0.0.1:8000/messages/<id>/read" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{}'

Log progress (required at session close)

curl -s -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/progress/ \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "summary": "what was done",
    "event_type": "note",
    "author": "codex",
    "workplan_id": "<uuid>",
    "task_id": "<uuid>"
  }'

Omit workplan_id / task_id when not applicable.

Update task status

curl -s -X PATCH "http://127.0.0.1:8000/tasks/<task_id>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"status": "progress"}'
# values: wait | todo | progress | done | cancel

Flag a task for human review

curl -s -X PATCH "http://127.0.0.1:8000/tasks/<task_id>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"needs_human": true, "intervention_note": "reason"}'

Session Protocol

Start:

1. cat .custodian-brief.md — domain goal and open workplans (offline-safe)
2. Check inbox: GET /messages/?to_agent=direkt-vermittlung-de&unread_only=true; mark read
3. Scan workplans: ls workplans/ — note status: ready, active, or blocked files and open tasks
4. Check human-needed tasks: GET /tasks/?needs_human=true

During work:

• Update task statuses in workplan files as tasks progress
• Record significant decisions via POST /decisions/

Close:

1. Update workplan file task statuses to reflect progress
2. Log: POST /progress/ with a summary of what changed
3. After workplan file changes, run:

   statehub fix-consistency
   

   Coding agents should run this directly; ask the operator only if the CLI or State Hub API is unavailable. This syncs task status from files into the hub DB.

Workplan Convention (ADR-001)

Work items originate as files in this repo — not in the hub. The hub is a read/cache/index layer that rebuilds from files.

File location: workplans/DVD-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md

Archived location: finished workplans may move to workplans/archived/YYMMDD-DVD-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md. The YYMMDD prefix is the completion/archive date; the frontmatter id does not change.

Ad Hoc Tasks: small opportunistic fixes discovered during a session use workplans/ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD.md with task ids ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD-T01, etc. Use this only for low-risk work completed directly; create a normal workplan for anything needing analysis, design, approval, dependencies, or multiple phases.

Frontmatter:

---
id: DVD-WP-NNNN
type: workplan
title: "..."
domain: government
repo: direkt-vermittlung-de
status: proposed | ready | active | blocked | backlog | finished | archived
owner: codex
topic_slug: ...
created: "YYYY-MM-DD"
updated: "YYYY-MM-DD"
state_hub_workstream_id: "<uuid>"   # written by fix-consistency — do not edit (legacy name; holds the workplan id)
---

Use proposed for a new draft, ready after review against current repo state, and finished after implementation. stalled and needs_review are derived health labels, not frontmatter statuses.

Task block format (one per ## section):

## Task Title

` ` `task
id: DVD-WP-NNNN-T01
status: wait | todo | progress | done | cancel
priority: high | medium | low
state_hub_task_id: "<uuid>"         # written by fix-consistency — do not edit
` ` `

Task description text.

Status progression: todo → progress → done; use wait for waiting/blocked work and cancel for stopped work.

To create a new workplan:

1. Write the file following the format above
2. Run statehub fix-consistency locally; ask the operator only if the CLI or State Hub API is unavailable.
