Ship Loop Build

ship-loop-build — build/type/lint child loop

Activation

• Standalone: /loop ship-loop-build (CEO debugging a single layer)
• Orchestrated: invoked by ship-loop-master when layers.build.state !== 'green' OR last_run > 30 min ago

Process

Step 1: Run gates in order, capture output

cd D:/Synthex
npm run type-check   # must pass first
npm run lint         # then this
npm run build        # then this

Record per command:

• exit_code
• last 100 lines of stderr+stdout (for recipe matching)
• duration

Step 2: Update state

Atomic update to ship-loop-state.json layers.build:

{
  "state": "green" | "red",
  "last_run": "<iso>",
  "retries": <int>,
  "details": {
    "type_check": { "pass": true|false, "errors": <int>, "first_error": "..." },
    "lint":       { "pass": true|false, "errors": <int>, "first_error": "..." },
    "build":      { "pass": true|false, "duration_ms": <int>, "first_error": "..." }
  }
}

Step 3: Recovery sub-loop on red

If any of the three commands failed AND layers.build.retries < 1:

1. Match the failure stderr against recovery-recipes.md table (regex, top to bottom, first match wins)
2. If match found:
   • Apply the fix (run the recipe's commands; edit files if recipe is "change X to Y")
   • Increment retries
   • Re-run the failed gate (just that one, not all three)
   • Update state with new outcome
3. If no match OR retry also failed:
   • Append to escalations.md:

     ## P1 — Build layer red after retry exhaustion
     
     - When: <iso>
     - Failing gate: <type-check|lint|build>
     - First error line: <verbatim>
     - Recipe attempted: <recipe # or "no match">
     - Suggested human action: <recipe's "Suggested" column or "no recipe — investigate">
     - Repro: `cd D:/Synthex && <command>`
     

   • Exit (master will see red state + escalation, halt accordingly)

Recipe priorities for this loop

Most likely matches (from recovery-recipes.md):

• #1 (Prisma drift) — if type-check fails on Property '<x>' does not exist on type 'PrismaClient'
• #2 (lockfile drift) — if Cannot find module '@sentry/react' etc.
• #4 + #5 (Edge bundle node-builtin) — if build fails with UnhandledSchemeError or Module not found: Can't resolve 'fs/promises'

Verification

• Run from a clean tree with stale node_modules/.prisma/client deleted; expect recipe #1 to match, fire npx prisma generate, retry, succeed
• Insert a deliberate type error (e.g. const x: number = "string" in any TS file); expect first run red, no recipe match, escalation written

Out of scope

• Build ARTIFACTS validation (handled by ship-loop-smoke)
• Bundle size checking (defer to build-orchestrator)
• Source map upload (Sentry — disabled per next.config.mjs)
