drift-fuse

1// drift-fuse — a function-hook plugin that watches an unattended run for
2// drift from the task the person asked for. It keeps the last prompt a person
3// typed as the task contract, records what each turn did (files edited, Bash
4// commands, tool names) and, when the turn ends, asks TypeSafe's Jev model one
5// yes/no question: did this turn serve that task? Two off-task turns in a row
6// (configurable) trip the fuse. A tripped fuse redirects the next prompt that
7// no person typed (a loop wakeup, a routine, a task notification) with a
8// context line naming the drift, or drops it when `onTrip` is "pause"; a
9// prompt a person types always passes and resets the contract. Fail-open:
10// without a TYPESAFE_API_KEY, or on any Jev failure, nothing is scored. See
11// docs/hooks-reference.md "Function hooks (early access)".
12//
13// PRIVACY: the contract prompt, the turn's file paths and Bash command heads,
14// and the head of the answer leave the machine for each scored turn. By
15// default only turns started by a non-person prompt are scored (`scope:
16// "unattended"`); `scope: "all"` scores every main-loop turn.
17//
18// Deliberately has NO runtime imports (`import type` erases), so the pure
19// functions here run under `bun test` without resolving 'claude-code'.
