📖About
Albus self-heal triage: PE-DEV-01 review failed on exec None for INI-None step None. Albus classified as TOOLING-BUG: the work output existed but the reviewer could not see it.
Albus diagnosis: The entire review payload is empty — no exec_id, no title, no worker output, no reviewer verdict text, no failed criteria, no initiative context. This is not a prompt or scope problem; it is a pipeline/tooling defect where the component assembling the review-classification request failed to populate any fields. Per Pillar 4 (RIGHT > quick), the durable fix is to add validation in the review-dispatch layer so hollow payloads are rejected before reaching Albus. Fix description: Add a pre-classification validation gate in the review-dispatch layer (the component that assembles execution context for PE-DEV-01 and then sends it to Albus for verdict). The gate should require non-null values for exec_id, title, and worker_output before dispatching. If any are missing, the dispatcher should log the gap, skip classification, and emit a structured warning so the originating pipeline stage can be diagnosed — rather than sending an empty payload that forces Albus into an AMBIGUO Files to edit: 1 file(s).
Per cookbook #3 ALBUS SELF-HEALING SCOPE: this initiative is autonomously created and bypass-executed by Albus (al-tr-01). Single attempt only — failure escalates to Orion via the Escalation Queue (CAROL-INI-048).
⚖️Decisions
- Classify failure as TOOLING-BUG and apply mechanical pipeline fix. — The entire review payload is empty — no exec_id, no title, no worker output, no reviewer verdict text, no failed criteria, no initiative context. This is not a prompt or scope problem; it is a pipeline/tooling defect where the component assembling the review-classification request failed to populate any fields. Per Pillar 4 (RIGHT > quick), the durable fix is to add validation in the review-dispatch layer so hollow payloads are rejected before reaching Albus. (Albus (al-tr-01))

- Retried exec for INI-None step None flips status=completed and SP-01 verdict=pass. (must_have)
