Reading this spec

The Junior Developer Volk (J:Junior) is the code generation agent of Orchestrata. It first reviews an architecture design by asking structured blocking questions through a converging review cycle, and then generates implementation code using the configured driver backend. After generation it scans the workspace and validates dependencies. The spec's reasons are that code generation needs a deliberate review gate so that nothing is built on an incomplete design, that unconstrained question loops would block delivery, and that undeclared third-party imports are caught before CI.

The scope is three user stories (the Architect triggers a design review, the CodeDirector requests code generation, and the Junior detects undeclared dependencies) and twelve functional requirements: review trigger, LLM-driven analysis, checklist evaluation, convergence enforcement, question parsing, code generation trigger, driver execution, workspace scanning, dependency validation, result reporting, auto-READY enforcement and error handling. Requirement IDs use the REQ-027- prefix.

The key decisions are that JuniorVolk extends BaseVolk and receives CXP packets on two subjects, design_review and code_generate. The review uses a 7-item checklist (C1 to C7) at temperature 0.0. Convergence rules cap the questions: at most 5 in cycle 1 (checklist items C1 to C5 only), at most 3 in cycle 2, and automatic READY from cycle 3. Code generation obtains a driver from the driver factory of spec 025, then runs workspace scanning and dependency validation. Results go to U:Ar (design review) and U:Cd (code generation).

In the code, almost all citations are in orchestrata_ultimate/agents/volks/junior/volk, with minor ones in orchestrata_ultimate/verification/review/helpers. The per-requirement view is on the RTM page.

The spec's status line reads Implemented. It tracks 6 files and defines 70 requirement IDs. The full text follows below.

Measured coverage is 56 of 70 requirements cited by at least one @traces in src/ (80.0%), spread over 3 modules; the module citing the most of them is orchestrata_ultimate/agents/volks/junior/volk (56 requirements). In tests/, 0 requirements are cited by a test-side @traces.

Coverage gaps: 14 requirements have no citing symbol. The largest untraced groups are REQ-027-* (14). Untraced means no @traces names the ID; the behaviour may still exist in code that was never annotated. Test-side citations are thinner than code-side ones (0 against 56).

Requirements

Checkbox is the state recorded in the requirements checklist; Traced by is the count of src/ symbols whose @traces names the ID.

Overview

What

The Junior Developer Volk (J:Junior) is the code generation agent in Orchestrata. It reviews architecture designs by asking structured blocking questions through a converging review cycle, then generates implementation code using the configured driver backend (orchestrata-drivers). After generation it scans the workspace and validates all generated Python file imports against the project pyproject.toml.

Terminology

Term Definition
Design Review A structured LLM-driven analysis of an architecture design packet to identify blocking implementation gaps
Convergence Rules Hard limits on question count per cycle that guarantee the review loop terminates within 3 cycles
DESIGN_REVIEW_PROMPT The system prompt containing the 7-item review checklist (C1-C7) and convergence rules
READY Verdict returned by the LLM (or forced by auto-READY) indicating the design is sufficient to implement
QUESTIONS Verdict returned when the LLM identifies blocking gaps; includes structured numbered questions referencing C1-C5
Design Cycle Integer tracking how many review iterations have occurred on a given design; sourced from CXP packet
auto-READY Forced READY verdict emitted when cycle >= 3 without consulting the LLM
Driver Backend The code generation engine resolved via DriverFactory from orchestrata-drivers (e.g. aider)
workspace Absolute path to the project directory where generated files are written; defaults to PROJECT_WORKSPACE_ROOT
scan_workspace Module-level function that walks the workspace tree and returns sorted relative paths of created files
validate_dependencies Module-level function that parses generated .py files and checks imports against pyproject.toml declared deps
C1-C7 Checklist item identifiers in DESIGN_REVIEW_PROMPT: C1=Import Paths, C2=Function Signatures, C3=Dependency Graph, C4=pyproject.toml, C5=File Tree consistency, C6=Error Handling (non-blocking), C7=Test Strategy (non-blocking)
aider_prompt The natural language prompt passed to the driver backend instructing it what code to write

    • Resource utilization gauges
    • Business metrics relevant to domain
Tracing Requirements
  1. Distributed Tracing
    • Trace propagation across component boundaries
    • Span attributes for domain-specific context
    • Trace sampling based on operational needs
Alerting Requirements
