📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThis PR implements repair-aware error handling for retry-mode SDK workflows. It adds builder methods to configure repair agents, normalizes error handling with default retries and repair budgets, introduces generic repair-agent selection logic, and wires agent-step repair execution before retries. Comprehensive contract and e2e tests validate repair flows across workflow shapes, and a new CI job runs these tests on SDK changes. ChangesRepair-Aware Retry Feature

There was a problem hiding this comment.
When a raw config has no top-level errorHandling but a workflow sets onError: skip/continue, these defaults now synthesize errorHandling.strategy: 'retry'. executeSteps then reads errorHandling?.strategy ?? workflow.onError, so the synthesized global retry/fail-fast behavior takes precedence and the documented workflow-level continue behavior is ignored after retries are exhausted. This regresses workflows that intentionally continue independent steps without top-level error handling.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

executeSupervisedAgentStep()still routes the owner throughspawnAndWait()in the non-executor path. If the resolved dedicated owner usescli: 'api', this can fail at runtime because the PTY/spawner path is not the API execution path.Suggested fix

The path
packages/sdk/src/__tests__/**is included, but the reliability tests are located atpackages/sdk/src/workflows/__tests__/. The workflows path on line 8 already covers these files via the glob.

73-79: 💤 Low valueReturn value includes
cwdbutfinallyblock deletes it immediately.The function returns
{ run, callsByStep, cwd }at line 75, then thefinallyblock at line 77 deletescwd. The caller receives a path to a directory that no longer exists. This works in the current tests because they destructure onlyrunandcallsByStep, but the worktree test at line 219 creates its own workspace and passes it explicitly, avoiding this issue.Consider removing
cwdfrom the return value since it's always deleted, or moving cleanup responsibility to the caller.Suggested fix

- Line 28: The JSON entry in
.trajectories/completed/2026-05/traj_bdrlknyl8twj.json has a duplicated sentence
in the "content" field; edit that "content" value to remove the repeated phrase
so the string reads once ("Made retry-mode workflows repair-aware by default")
and save the file, ensuring no other fields are altered.
In `@packages/sdk/src/workflows/runner.ts`:
- Around line 2561-2563: The current validation only checks typeof s.branch ===
'string' but allows empty/whitespace values; update the worktree step validation
(the block that checks s.branch in runner.ts) to also ensure
s.branch.trim().length > 0 and throw the same Error (or a similar descriptive
message referencing source and s.name) if the branch is empty/whitespace; locate
the check that currently throws `${source}: worktree step "${s.name}" must have
a "branch" string field` and extend it to validate non-empty/trimmed branch
before proceeding.
