Adds the normative contract every platform agent must conform to, plus a
working reference template under template/ that ticks every box out of
the box.
Spec is derived from the production agents shipped in
cjot-backstage-az/agents/ on branch sandbox/jonathan:
- agent-registry, agent-factory, decomposer, discovery-agent,
golden-path, modernization-factory, modernization-factory-v2,
policy-transformer, scaffold-agent, support-intake-agent, the-watcher
Contents:
- SPEC.md normative contract (13 sections + conformance checklist)
- CHANGELOG.md spec versioning (1.0.0)
- docs/
registration.md self-registration with the agent-gateway
observability.md OTel logs/metrics/traces wiring
manifest.md /.well-known/agent.json schema + AgentSkill
serialisation (pydantic vs protobuf)
kubernetes.md k8s deployment shape, mandatory cross-refs,
per-namespace agents, resource sizing
deployment.md .image-version, ACR build, deploy scripts, rollback
deviations.md tracked debts against the spec
- template/
.env.local.example, .gitignore, .image-version (0.1.0),
Dockerfile (python:3.12-slim, non-root UID 1001, HEALTHCHECK),
requirements.txt (harness floor + optional LLM stack),
app/agent.py (Starlette entry, lifespan + self-registration,
defensive _skill_dict for pydantic vs protobuf),
app/logging_setup.py (canonical OTel log bridge — copy verbatim),
app/metrics.py (meter + example counter/histogram),
app/skills.py (AGENT_CONFIG + AgentSkill list),
k8s/configmap.yaml + deployment.yaml (Deployment + Service,
OTel annotations + 6-var env block,
agents-sa + agents-kv-spc bindings),
scripts/deploy.sh (auto-bump + az acr build + apply + rollout),
scripts/full-deploy.sh (preflight + deploy + post-deploy smoke),
scripts/deploy-local.sh (docker/podman + .env.local)

Known deviations
This file tracks where existing agents in cjot-backstage-az/agents/ deviate from the SPEC. Each row is a tracked debt; deviations should converge over time.
| Agent | Deviation | Spec clause | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
agent-registry |
Uses FastAPI, not Starlette | §3.2 | Grandfathered — registry pre-dates the spec. |
support-intake-agent |
Uses FastAPI, not Starlette | §3.2 | Grandfathered. |
agent-factory |
Uses agent-factory-sa ServiceAccount |
§9.3 | Has its own Key Vault binding (agent-factory-kv-spc) for build-time credentials. |
sonarqube-mcp |
Uses sonarqube-mcp-kv-spc SecretProviderClass |
§9 (Mandatory cross-references) | Domain-specific Key Vault for SonarQube tokens. |
golden-path |
Listens on port 8000 (not 8080) | §3.5 (allowed) | Port 8000 is permitted; flagged here only for awareness. |
modernization-factory-v2 |
Runs in namespace modernization-factory |
§9.2 | Namespace separation by domain; service.namespace and AGENT_SELF_URL are correctly aligned. |
documentor-agent |
Skeleton only (no app/ shipped) |
All | Placeholder; not yet a deployable agent. |
How to add a row
When you knowingly merge an agent that violates a spec clause, add a row here with:
- The agent's directory name.
- A one-line description of the deviation.
- The clause number(s) in
SPEC.md. - A short rationale or follow-up plan.
When you fix a deviation, remove the row in the same PR that closes it.
