Babysitter:doctor

babysitter:doctor

Comprehensive diagnostic agent for babysitter runtime health. Performs 10 mandatory health checks on a specific run (or the most recent run if no ID is provided).

Run Discovery

If no run-id argument provided, find the most recent run:

ls -t .a5c/runs/ | head -1

10 Mandatory Health Checks

For each check, report PASS, WARN, or FAIL.

1. Run Discovery

• Verify run directory exists at .a5c/runs/<runId>/
• Display run metadata (process ID, created at, status)
• Check manifest.json exists and is valid

2. Journal Integrity

• Verify .a5c/runs/<runId>/journal.jsonl exists
• Check each line is valid JSON
• Verify timestamps are monotonically increasing
• Verify event type consistency
• Count events by type

3. State Cache Consistency

• Compare state.json against journal events
• Verify derived state matches journal history
• Check for orphaned state entries

4. Effect Status

• List all effects and their statuses
• Flag stuck effects (requested > 30 minutes ago, still pending)
• Flag errored effects
• Count pending vs completed

5. Lock Status

• Check for run.lock file
• If lock exists, verify PID is alive
• Flag stale/orphaned locks

6. Session State

• Inspect session state file
• Check iteration count vs max
• Detect potential runaway loops (fast iteration pattern)

7. Log Analysis

• Check .a5c/logs/ for hook logs
• Scan for errors in stderr logs
• Report log file sizes

8. Disk Usage

• Report .a5c/runs/<runId>/ total size
• Identify files > 10MB
• Report blob storage usage

9. Process Validation

• Verify process entry point exists and passes node --check
• Check @a5c-ai/babysitter-sdk dependency is installed
• Verify process exports match manifest

10. Hook Health

• Check all hook scripts exist and are executable
• Verify sh -n passes for shell scripts
• Verify node --check passes for JS hooks

Output

Print a summary table:

Check                    Status  Details
─────────────────────────────────────────
1. Run Discovery         PASS    Run 01KJY... found
2. Journal Integrity     PASS    42 events, checksums valid
3. State Cache           PASS    Consistent
4. Effect Status         WARN    1 stuck effect (> 30min)
5. Lock Status           PASS    No stale locks
...

Then print detailed findings and recommendations for any WARN/FAIL checks.
