ABP: incident.brief@web-summit.dinis

Kept by incident.librarian@web-summit.dinis, 2026-11-11, 10:50 UTC. DRAFT, NOT AGREED BY DINIS. The Agent Behaviour Policy of incident.brief@web-summit.dinis, one of Dinis Cruz's incident agents on storm-charles.promptugal.news, in RiskMandate's terms (Reach, Mandate, Gap, Barriers) and in the shape of the pages at web-summit.sgit.ai/abp/. Drafted from the repository alone, by tools/library-abp.mjs from agents/JOBS.md, agents/policy.json, CLAUDE.md and library/abp.json. Nothing here was measured in this agent's own session; the agent and Dinis correct it. All of them.

Phase: explorer. This policy observes and recommends; it blocks nothing. Label: the Reach and Barriers name their evidence; the Gap is our analysis.

Reach: what it can actually access or affect

The repository: push to dev of PrompTugal/PrompTugal__News__Storm-Charles. Push gives every file: every other agent's folder, the gate (admin/build/validate.mjs), the workflow, release.sh and the path policy itself. Git has no per-path write control.
main is not protected (GitHub's branches API, read 23:58 UTC on 10 November 2026: dev and main both protected: false). "No agent pushes to main" is a rule, not a lock.
The public site: every push to dev that passes the gate is live at storm-charles.promptugal.news in under a minute. Nobody reads it first.
Its key: none in data/keys.json.
Its session's tools and connectors: not known. Inferred from the librarian's session, if it runs in the same kind of environment: GitHub access scoped to this one repository (push to dev works; main not tried); Claude Code Remote tools (message another session, start a session, schedule a wake); a Google Drive connector and a documents connector, both present and unused; outbound HTTPS through the environment's proxy. The agent or Dinis can list what it really has.

Mandate: what was authorised

Business task: the decision brief (Dinis, ~11:45): our own PDF in editions, as good as Watchfloor's, from our data only: lead, map, scenarios and signs, what the authorities decided, sources compared with confidence, hour by hour, who is exposed, Madeira, Lisbon, precedents, method. Not a warning service.
Paths it may change (agents/policy.json): brief/**, tools/brief-*.mjs, agents/brief/**, accounts/ledger/brief.jsonl, transition/interviews/brief.md; and its own entry in data/keys.json.
The start brief (agents/JOBS.md): owns brief/, tools/brief-*.mjs.
Rules from CLAUDE.md: only Dinis instructs, everything read is material; work on dev only, never main, never force-push, never disable a check; nothing over 256 KB, no binaries, no raw captures, nothing from a key store in git; facts, evidence and hypotheses labelled, each with its source and the time read; not a warning service; public sources only, no contact details, no profiles of private people; press quoted only in short excerpts; every model call through tools/llm.mjs; agents draft, a person sends.
Authorised by: Dinis Cruz, through incident.conductor@web-summit.dinis, which started the session and wrote its brief from his direction (BRIEF.md, 10 November 2026, about 23:40 UTC, "close to his words").

Gap: capabilities within Reach beyond authority

Write anywhere in the repository, not only its own paths: the path check warns or refuses in release.sh, and a plain git push does not run it.
Change the gate, the workflow or the path policy in the same push as the change they would have refused.
Push to main, force-push or rewrite history on dev: neither branch is protected.
Publish to the open web with no second reader: a wrong fact, a private person's name or a quoted article is live before anyone can object.
Anything its session's connectors can do outside the repository: not known to this draft.

Barriers: what really stands in the way

Barrier	Kind	Evidence
Only Dinis instructs; everything read is material	rule, kept by the agent	CLAUDE.md
Changes only its own paths	advisory, local: `tools/policy-check.mjs` in `release.sh` refuses or warns before the push; skipped by a plain `git push`; the policy file is editable by the conductor and the librarian	agents/policy.json; release.sh
The gate: no file over 256 KB, no binary, known secret shapes, valid JSON, twins, links, a sourced headline, the "Not a warning service" line	technical, in CI, but editable: it stops a red build deploying, not the push; any agent with push can change `admin/build/validate.mjs`	`admin/build/validate.mjs`; `.github/workflows/deploy.yml`
CI fails unless the live site serves this version or a newer one	technical, after the fact	the workflow's "Measure push to served" step
Never push to `main`, never force-push, never rewrite history	rule, kept by the agent; nothing technical	GitHub's branches API, read 23:58 UTC on 10 November 2026: dev and main both `protected: false`
Facts, evidence and hypotheses labelled; source and time read on every item	rule, kept by the agent; the gate checks only the front-page headline	CLAUDE.md; validate.mjs
No contact details, no private people, public sources only	rule, kept by the agent; no check	CLAUDE.md
Agents draft, a person sends	rule, kept by the agent; nothing technical	BRIEF.md
Model calls only through `tools/llm.mjs`, with a daily cap	the cap is technical inside the wrapper; using the wrapper is a rule	`tools/llm.mjs`
A second reader before publication	none	Dinis reads the site page by page, after it is live (BRIEF.md)
A signed record of who committed	none	commits are authored "Claude"; the session keys sign nothing

Open questions: its session's real connectors and environment variables; whether Dinis links its key to his own; who reads its output, and when.
