agentic-runner

The Agentic OS Runner (ADR-0013): an activity-only Temporal worker that executes exactly what must happen where the workspace, the Agent Runtime subprocess, a verb seam or a credential the Runner holds is. The Ralph Loop — every @workflow.defn — runs on platform-hosted Platform Workers and never ships here.

It depends on agentic-runner-contracts and third-party packages only: it imports no platform module, enforced by tests/test_package_partition.py.

Without the platform — its namespace, Directive tokens, Grant snapshots, Evidence sink and the loop itself — this package is an executor with no scheduler, no governance and no intake. That inertness, not obfuscation, is the boundary (ADR-0013 §5).

Running it

agentic-runner run is the process: it exchanges the Runner Registration Token in AGENTIC_RUNNER_REGISTRATION_TOKEN (or, deprecated, AGENTIC_AGENT_TOKEN) for a durable identity at AGENTIC_CONTROL_PLANE_URL (once, persisted under AGENTIC_RUNNER_STATE_DIR), heartbeats every 30 s, connects to the namespace it was handed with the Runner Token the heartbeat refreshes, and polls its own runner.{runner_id} queue. AGENTIC_RUNNER_ISOLATION is contract_uid (default: every Contract its own uid, needs CAP_SETUID — refused otherwise) or none. Readiness is GET /healthz on AGENTIC_RUNNER_READINESS_PORT.

It ships as ghcr.io/qtsone/agentic-runner (Dockerfile.runner at the repository root: Python, git, codex, claude, nothing else) and installs with charts/agentic-runner.

On a workstation it is a per-user login agent, one per Organisation: agentic-runner install | start | stop | status <org> (LaunchAgent, systemd user unit or logon task; never sudo), with Credential References in the OS credential store.
