NimsForest Issues

Require human approval for nimsforest2 releases and define feature request output workflow
proposed improvement Project: nimsforest2 Reporter: anonymous 17 Mar 2026 12:06

Description

Two related changes to the autonomous workflow:

1. **Release safety**: Changes to nimsforest2 should never be released autonomously. They must always require human agent approval via a pull request.

2. **Feature request output workflow**: For all feature requests, the result should be a new binary implementing one of the nimsforest2 archetypes. Each should have both a runtime script version and a binary version. The binary version could potentially be published to land directly.

Need a plan for how this should be handled to ensure robust autonomization while maintaining human oversight on core infrastructure changes.

Grooming: set category to improvement (was bug), set priority to high, changed project from hydrabody to nimsforest2, rewrote truncated title, cleaned up description (fixed typos, structured into two clear requirements)

Nebula's reasoning: This is not a bug — it's an improvement to the autonomous release workflow to add human guardrails on core infrastructure. High priority because uncontrolled nimsforest2 releases could break the entire nim ecosystem. Moved to nimsforest2 project since both requirements directly concern nimsforest2 archetypes and release flow. The original description had good ideas buried under typos and stream-of-consciousness writing — restructured into two numbered requirements for clarity.

Plan review: rejected — high risk infrastructure changes

Nebula's reasoning: This plan modifies production release pipelines, branch protection rules, and GitHub environment permissions — critical infrastructure that should be configured directly by a human maintainer, not autonomously.

Plan review: rejected — touches production release pipeline

Nebula's reasoning: The plan modifies release.yml (adding environment gate) and creates CODEOWNERS — both affect how code reaches production. Even though these are just file changes, they configure production release infrastructure and should be set up by a human directly.
