The mechanism named in canon/standards/work-record-types_v0.1.md:
"Promotion is a first-class transition... manual transcription of an
intake item into other kinds is a process defect." This is what AWQ-010
needed and didn't have -- a human/agent had to notice, transcribe, and
re-register it by hand. One call now does what that manual pass did.
scripts/promote_intake.py: intake.routed -> workplan | task | decision |
engagement.
- workplan: new ADR-001 file at workplans/{ID}-{slug}.md, registered
against the hub (repo+topic resolution, POST /workplans, frontmatter
id write-back)
- task: appended as a ```task``` block to an existing --workplan-file,
registered via POST /tasks, reuses the existing
_inject_task_id_into_block writeback helper
- decision: appended as a ```yaml``` block with a fresh
{PREFIX}-DEC-{YYYY}-{NNN} id to --target-file, registered the same
way C-32 registers decisions (reuses _inject_yaml_block_field)
- engagement: appended as a ```yaml``` block with a fresh
{PREFIX}-ENG-{YYYY}-{NNN} id -- file-only, no hub entity exists yet
(same honest deferral as C-32), reported not silently skipped
In every case the intake is closed with outcome=promoted and
promoted_to=<new canonical id>; the new record carries an
origin: "intake:<id>" back-link.
Wired as `statehub promote-intake <intake-id> --to <kind> --repo-slug
<slug> --repo-path <path> --domain <domain> [--target-file ...]
[--workplan-file ...]`, matching the CLI shape named in the workplan text.
17 tests: pure helpers (_slugify, _next_number, _append_yaml_block,
frontmatter injection) offline; full promote_intake() flow with the hub
API mocked.
Live-verified against the real running API/DB and a real repo
(binky-control), not just mocks -- and the live proof caught a real bug:
the first workplan-promotion run silently produced a false success (the
intake was closed outcome=promoted, but /workplans/ actually 422'd on a
missing repo_id that the code never resolved, so no workstream was ever
created). Fixed to resolve repo_id via /repos/{slug} and to raise loudly
on registration failure instead of writing a half-registered file
silently; locked in as two regression tests. Re-verified clean:
workplan promotion (CLI direct + through `statehub promote-intake`
itself) and decision promotion both proven end-to-end against the live
hub, with all scratch artefacts (files + hub rows) cleaned up afterward.
No regressions: full state-hub suite (271 tests across
test_promote_intake, test_intake, test_work_record_registration,
test_work_record_check, test_routers_core, test_consistency_check,
test_consistency_sweep, test_mcp_smoke, test_mcp_write_tools) green.
