ruflo-metaharness

MetaHarness integration plugin for ruflo. Surfaces the upstream metaharness / harness / @metaharness/darwin CLIs through eleven ruflo skills, honoring ADR-150's architectural constraint that MetaHarness must remain a removable augmentation — never a required runtime dependency.

ADR-150 architectural constraint (load-bearing)

Ruflo remains operational if every MetaHarness package is removed. Every code path in this plugin satisfies four rules:

1. Removable — no static import '@metaharness/*' outside the optional-router path in v3/@claude-flow/cli/src/ruvector/neural-router.ts.
2. Optional in package.json — metaharness is in optionalDependencies, never dependencies.
3. Graceful degradation — every script catches MODULE_NOT_FOUND/network failure and emits { degraded: true, reason: 'metaharness-not-available' } JSON, exits 0. The graceful path is the default behavior, not a special case.
4. CI gate — no-metaharness-smoke.yml runs the plugin smoke with npm install --no-optional and asserts the contract still passes.

Skills

Skill	Usage	Description
harness-score	/harness-score [--path .] [--alert-on-fit-below 70]	5-dim readiness scorecard (harnessFit/compile/coverage/safety/memory + cost)
harness-genome	/harness-genome [--path .] [--alert-on-risk-above 0.5]	7-section categorical report (repo_type/topology/risk/mcp/test/publish)
harness-mcp-scan	/harness-mcp-scan [--path .] [--fail-on high]	Static MCP security findings — pure-read, no dispatch
harness-threat-model	/harness-threat-model [--path .] [--fail-on high]	Enterprise-grade threat model (clean/low/medium/high + findings)
harness-mint	/harness-mint --name <id> --template <id> [--confirm]	Scaffold a custom harness; DRY-RUN by default; refuses project-root writes
harness-similarity	/harness-similarity --a a.json --b b.json [--per-dimension] [--alert-below 0.5]	ADR-152 §3.1 weighted similarity between two harness fingerprints (cosine + categorical + jaccard)
harness-oia-audit	/harness-oia-audit [--path .] [--alert-on-worst high] [--dry-run]	Composite Phase-2 audit (oia-manifest + threat-model + mcp-scan) into metaharness-audit namespace
harness-drift-from-history	/harness-drift-from-history [--baseline-since 7d] [--threshold 0.95]	1-command drift detection — composes audit-list + oia-audit + audit-trend
harness-bench	/harness-bench --op create|verify --repo <path>	Manage @metaharness/darwin bench suites — fixed evaluation corpora for harness-evolve
harness-evolve	/harness-evolve --repo <path> [--generations 3] [--sandbox real|mock|agent]	Run @metaharness/darwin evolve — mutate seven policy surfaces, sandbox-score variants, promote measured wins
harness-security-bench	/harness-security-bench [--population 2] [--cycles 1] [--alert-on-fail]	"Darwin Shield" / ADR-155 — evolve a security-detection harness against a 10-vuln corpus
harness-learn	/harness-learn --host <h> --model <m> --slice <manifest> [--repo <checkout>] [--run]	metaharness@0.3.0 / upstream ADR-235 — GEPA learning run; $0 dry-run default, --run to spend; needs a metaharness repo checkout
harness-gepa	/harness-gepa --op genome|validate|render|analyze [--path <genome.json>]	darwin@0.8.0 GEPA library surface — genome load/validate/render + transcript failure analysis; gepaOptimize stays library-only

Architecture

All skills use subprocess invocation through the _harness.mjs shared helper:

skills/X/SKILL.md → scripts/X.mjs → scripts/_harness.mjs → spawnSync('npx', ['metaharness', …])
                                                  ↘ on MODULE_NOT_FOUND → emit degraded JSON, exit 0

This means:

• No library import overhead on ruflo's boot path
• 60s hard timeout per subprocess (bounded blast radius)
• --json flag forced for structured parsing
• Graceful degradation is a single helper used by every skill
