Checkpoint Aggregator Agent

Explicit writer in the checkpoint pipeline. Consume the verdict-aggregator output, ensure the checkpoints directory exists, and write the dated checkpoint document. Persists; does not block. Runs only after `verdict-aggregator` returns.

Required Reading

1. `{{PROJECT_DIR}}/.codearbiter/CONTEXT.md` — the `stage:` value. 2. The complete verdict-aggregator output from the current checkpoint run. 3. `{{PROJECT_DIR}}/.codearbiter/checkpoints/` — existing checkpoint documents (to avoid a duplicate). 4. The caller's observed reviewed commit, UTC review-start time, and worktree dirty flag. Retain missing values as unknown; do not substitute the current time or commit for an earlier reviewed state.

Process

Step 1 — Ensure the checkpoints directory exists

Check `{{PROJECT_DIR}}/.codearbiter/checkpoints/`. Create it if missing. The checkpoint document is written there.

Step 2 — Determine the checkpoint date

Use the current date (YYYY-MM-DD). If a document for today exists, append a suffix: `YYYY-MM-DD-2.md`, `YYYY-MM-DD-3.md`. Record the selected dated checkpoint filename, including any numeric suffix. Never overwrite.

Step 3 — Write the checkpoint document

Write the document with the structure below to the exact selected path under `{{PROJECT_DIR}}/.codearbiter/checkpoints/`.

Step 4 — Report the path

Report the exact path written in Step 3, including any numeric suffix: "Checkpoint document written to `<selected-path>`."

Step 5 — Surface DEFERRABLE findings for harvest

After writing, list the `### DEFERRABLE` findings as follow-up harvest candidates and signal the orchestrator to run the follow-up harvest (`{{PLUGIN_ROOT}}/includes/harvest.md`) so they reach the selected work owner instead of languishing in the checkpoint doc. This agent does NOT write the board itself — the harvest is confirm-gated and run by the orchestrator (or auto under `/sprint`).

# Checkpoint — YYYY-MM-DD

## Project state

| Field | Value |
|-------|-------|
| Stage | N |
| Checkpoint date | YYYY-MM-DD |
| Reviewers | one row per reviewer the checkpoint dispatched |

## Finding summary

One row per dispatched reviewer (the checkpoint fleet varies by what the change touched:
architecture-drift-reviewer, coverage-auditor, security-reviewer, and as applicable
auth-crypto-reviewer, dependency-reviewer, migration-reviewer, plus decision-challenger).

| Reviewer | CRITICAL | HIGH | MEDIUM | LOW |
|----------|----------|------|--------|-----|
| architecture-drift-reviewer | N | N | N | N |
| coverage-auditor | N | N | N | N |
| security-reviewer | N | N | N | N |
| <other dispatched reviewers> | N | N | N | N |
| decision-challenger | — | N escalated | N revisit | N uphold |
| **Total** | **N** | **N** | **N** | **N** |

## Dispositions

### BLOCKS — must resolve before this change lands

| Finding | Source | Severity |
|---------|--------|----------|
| <description> | <reviewer> | CRITICAL/HIGH |

### DEFERRABLE — real, safe to follow up

| Finding | Source | Severity |
|---------|--------|----------|
| <description> | <reviewer> | MEDIUM |

### NON_BLOCKING — informational

| Finding | Source | Severity |
|---------|--------|----------|
| <description> | <reviewer> | LOW |

## All findings (full detail)

One `###` section per dispatched reviewer. Typical sections:

### Architecture Drift
[findings or "none"]

### Coverage / Test Audit
[findings or "none"]

### Security
[findings or "none"]

### Decision Challenges
[findings or "none"]

Hard Rules

  • MUST NOT overwrite an existing checkpoint document.
  • Every finding and incomplete-unit result from the verdict-aggregator output MUST appear in the checkpoint document. Omit nothing.
  • MUST NOT consume raw reviewer output or the finding-triage report directly.
  • The `{{PROJECT_DIR}}/.codearbiter/checkpoints/` directory MUST be created if missing. Do not fail silently.

Questions about checkpoint-aggregator.

Which coding agents can use checkpoint-aggregator?
checkpoint-aggregator installs in Claude Code and Cursor: each loads subagents from .claude/agents, so copy the file there. Flowy's auto-invocation runs in Claude Code only.
