Rationale: The paper introduces 'Trace Integrity' as a deployment reliability criterion requiring computation traces to be explicit, executable, schema-valid, operator-faithful, replayable, answer-consistent, and auditable. This directly addresses gh-aw's safe-outputs system by adding a validation layer that ensures write operations include explicit, typed execution traces. Currently gh-aw safe-outputs validate schema but not the reasoning path; adding trace contracts would enable post-run auditability and causal debugging of agent decisions.
Rationale: ProgRouter introduces online progress-guided routing that adaptively selects LLM agents at each workflow step based on evolving task progress, remaining difficulty, and cost constraints. This maps to gh-aw's sub-agent system where each agent currently uses a fixed model alias (small/large). Adding a progress estimator and dynamic model selection could optimize the max-ai-credits budget by routing simpler sub-steps to cheaper models while preserving quality, especially valuable in gh-aw's credit-constrained workflows.
Rationale: AsymSpec breaks the symmetric context assumption in speculative decoding by having a lightweight drafter read full input while the large verifier operates on compressed context, achieving lossless speedup. In gh-aw, the orchestrator accumulates full workflow context while sub-agents often need only task-specific slices. Implementing asymmetric context passing with a compression layer and drafter-based steering could reduce sub-agent token costs significantly while maintaining accuracy through contrastive logit fusion from the full-context orchestrator.
Investigate: Trace Integrity execution contracts for safe-outputs (effort: medium)
Investigate: Adaptive model routing for sub-agent orchestration (effort: high)
Investigate: Asymmetric context compression for token optimization (effort: high)
Quick-Win Agentic Prompts
To explore these opportunities with minimal friction, use the following agentic prompts with gh-aw:
Execution Contract Prototype
Read the Trace Integrity paper (arxiv 2608.26036v1) and design a minimal execution contract schema for gh-aw safe-outputs. The contract should capture: (1) the tool call name, (2) input arguments, (3) the agent's reasoning path as a structured trace, (4) validation rules. Output a JSON schema and example contract for `create_issue`.
Progress-Guided Routing
Design a progress estimator for gh-aw sub-agents that takes workflow step index, sub-agent input/output, and remaining max-ai-credits budget, then recommends small vs large model selection. Reference ProgRouter (arxiv 2608.25992v1). Output Go interface and example implementation.
Asymmetric Context Compression
Analyze gh-aw's orchestrator-to-sub-agent context passing and identify compression opportunities. Reference AsymSpec (arxiv 2608.26004v1) asymmetric context approach. Propose a compression strategy for sub-agent prompts that preserves accuracy. Output design doc with example workflow.
