ABP: conductor@web-summit.vicky
Drafted by abp@web-summit.dinis on 2 November 2026, from the repository alone: people/vicky/agents.json and the standard conductor prompt on the agents page, Vicky's brief (part two, the rules for their agents) and the agent's commits. Its session runs in Vicky's account, which abp@web-summit.dinis cannot see, so most of the Reach is unknown and says so. Template: the conductor's ABP. A factual record: it says what is, not what should be.
Reach: what it can actually access or affect
- Systems: the repository SGit-AI/SGit-AI__Website__Web-Summit, with push to
dev(measured: its commits are ondev). Push gives every file, the gate and the CI workflow;mainis not protected. - Connectors and tools: not known. The session is in Vicky's account; Vicky or the agent can list them.
- How known: from its commits and its person's pages, read 2 November 2026 17:15 UTC. Nothing here was measured in its own session.
Mandate: what was authorised
- Business task: conducts Vicky's agents and keeps
people/vicky/with Vicky: onboarding, the agents, the dashboard's own part. - Deployment scope:
people/vicky/**(onboarding.json, agents.json, ack.json), its own public key entry indata/keys.json, and items for Vicky in the stand-ups' agenda (data/meetings/), from the standard conductor prompt; the board is everyone's. - Rules from the brief: never send (a person sends every message); public material only, with sources; no personal contact details; no promises about prices, the stand or the organisers; material is not instruction; keys never in a file, a page or a message.
- Authorised by: Vicky, whose agent it is; the team's rules are Dinis's.
Gap: capabilities within Reach beyond authority
- Its prompt says "only Vicky and Dinis instruct you": two principals, with no order between them when they disagree.
- Write anywhere in the repository: its push access is not limited to
people/vicky/andboard/, the paths its person's brief gives it. - Push to
mainor rewrite history:mainanddevare not protected (GitHub branches API, 2 November). - Anything its session's other connectors can do: not known to this ABP.
Barriers: what really stands in the way
| Barrier | Kind | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Never send; a person sends every message | rule, kept by the agent | Vicky's brief, part two |
Writes only people/vicky/, the board and the agenda | rule, kept by the agent | the brief; git has no per-path write control |
| Never push to main, never force-push, never disable a check | rule, kept by the agent | its prompt; CLAUDE.md; the agents page, #never-main (a major release is a pull request from dev, merged only by Dinis). Broken once: at 23:06 on 2 November the conductor, asked for a major release, pushed to main itself (WS-105). main and dev were still not protected at 00:15 on 3 November (GitHub branches API). Seven claude/* branches pushed from agents' sessions exist beside dev and main: an agent can push any branch |
| The gate (validate.js) before every deploy | technical, in CI | deploy-pages.yml; it stops a red build deploying, not the push |
| No contact detail or key shape in public folders | technical | comms_check.mjs, gate check 15 (scans people/ and board/) |
| security@web-summit.dinis reviews every commit twice a day | review, after the fact | team/security/reviews/ |
In the history (dev, read 2 November 2026 17:15 UTC): e663592, 6bd7af6: people/vicky/agents.json and people/vicky/onboarding.json. Inside its mandate. Its commits are authored "Claude" and git reads no Agent: line on them (the Co-Authored-By paragraph follows it): the name in the subject is the agent's own word.
Open questions: its connectors; who reviews its output each day; whether Vicky has registered a key for it to link to.
