Summary

This adds the gh-aw compiler side of unified AWF enclaves, replacing the legacy bounded executor shape with a single secure mcpg route:

  • define top-level enclaves as a keyed array containing at most one script and one agent entry
  • use entry-level repos, timeout, and resource limits; keep agent-specific settings such as model under agent
  • emit the same keyed array shape to AWF and derive the MCP tool allowlist from the script / agent keys
  • launch mcpg before AWF in bridge mode with the awf-enclave upstream, run identity label, 120-second connection timeout, and the fixed 630-second enclave tool timeout
  • generate a fresh masked 64-hex capability per run, expose it only to mcpg and AWF, and exclude all enclave handoff variables from the primary agent
  • require AWF network isolation and reject duplicate executor types, bounded-query combinations, inconsistent shared-repository sensitivities, missing agent models, invalid repository entries, and executor timeouts above 540 seconds
  • keep script network/interpreter and agent network as AWF-owned security invariants
  • update schemas, parsing, serialization, docs, and compiler tests without adding compiler-owned enclave server startup or restart behavior

Example

sandbox:
  agent:
    id: awf
    sudo: false

enclaves:
  - script:
    repos:
      - repo: octo-org/private-service
        sensitivity: confidential
    timeout: 45
  - agent:
      model: gpt-5
    repos:
      - repo: octo-org/private-service
        sensitivity: confidential
    timeout: 180

This produces the awf-enclave upstream at http://awf-enclave-mcp:8080/mcp, connectTimeout: 120, and toolTimeout: 630 for every valid enclave configuration. The gateway enforcement bound covers AWF's maximum 600-second finite-disclosure timing bucket plus a 30-second transport allowance. Executor timeout is capped at 540 seconds because AWF reserves 60 seconds in the final bucket for post-execution processing and cleanup. The 630-second mcpg bound is not an absolute AWF wall-clock guarantee under pathological host cleanup or scheduler stalls; AWF returns a canonical error immediately when pre-bucket processing has already exceeded the final bucket.

Firewall dependency

This is the gh-aw compiler prerequisite for github/gh-aw-firewall#6992. The matching keyed-array and timing-bound compatibility work is published as github/gh-aw-firewall#7232.

The AWF JSON handoff is:

{
  "enclaves": [
    {
      "script": {},
      "repos": [{ "repo": "octo-org/private-service", "sensitivity": "confidential" }],
      "timeout": 45
    },
    {
      "agent": { "model": "gpt-5" },
      "repos": [{ "repo": "octo-org/private-service", "sensitivity": "confidential" }],
      "timeout": 180
    }
  ]
}

The firewall contract:

  1. Derives enabled tools from discriminator-key presence and allows at most one entry of each key.
  2. Requires agent.model, accepts an empty script object, and enforces matching sensitivity when a repo occurs in both entries.
  3. Shares the information budget by repo across executor types.
  4. Applies script network none, script interpreter python3, and agent network api-proxy-only internally.
  5. Uses default executor timeouts of 30 seconds for script and 120 seconds for agent, caps configured timeouts at 540 seconds, and preserves the maximum 600-second externally observable timing bucket.

Firewall final removal of boundedQueries / boundedAgents waits on this compiler PR and the aligned firewall contract.

The integration targets mcpg v0.4.8. Its HTTP transport connects lazily, does not cache failed connection attempts, and retries on later readiness requests, so mcpg may start before the AWF-owned enclave upstream without compiler-owned restart logic.

Validation

  • make agent-report-progress
  • generated gateway tests for default, 45-second, and 540-second executor configurations (toolTimeout: 630)
  • schema rejection test for 541-second executor timeout
  • 284 workflows compiled with no lock-file drift

PR finisher complete. Local validation passed (make fmt, make lint, make test-unit all green). No unresolved review threads — the copilot-pull-request-reviewer errored without leaving code review comments, so there is nothing to address. The PR is open, not draft, with no merge conflicts. CI must be re-triggered by a maintainer (close/reopen or push) before merge.

Nice work on the enclave compiler integration! 🎯

This PR looks solid:

Focused scope — all changes align with unified AWF enclave compilation through mcpg
Well-tested — comprehensive test coverage in enclaves_test.go (183 lines)
Clear documentation — new docs/src/content/docs/reference/enclaves.md with configuration examples
Complete description — includes summary, working example, dependencies, and validation steps

The PR properly addresses the AWF integration prerequisite per the firewall schema alignment, and the inline agentic workflow attribution is noted. Ready for review! 🚀

  • ✅ Checks (local) — make fmt, make lint, make test-unit all pass locally.
  • ❓ Checks (CI) — Stale after agent push; needs human re-trigger. Three runs show action_required (CGO, CWI, Doc Build) — these are deployment-approval gates, not failures (zero failed jobs). No code-level CI failures were identified.
  • ✅ Mergeable — PR is open, not draft, no merge conflicts.

Actions taken: Local validation confirmed green. No code changes needed.
Hand-off: A maintainer should re-trigger CI (close/reopen PR or push) and approve pending deployment gates before merge.

@copilot fix this failing ci check https://github.com/github/gh-aw/actions/runs/31433527915/job/93602888711?pr=50920

Fixed in the latest commit. The lint-errors check requires ≥80% of validation error messages to include an Example: snippet. Our new files (enclaves.go, compiler_validators.go, mcp_renderer.go) added 15 non-compliant messages that pushed the repo from 80% to 79%. I've added inline YAML examples to each of those error messages; the check now passes at 80% (1996/2482 compliant).

Done. Merged main and resolved the conflict in mcp_setup_gateway.go (kept both the new MCP_GATEWAY_ALLOWED_MOUNT_ROOTS export from main and the enclave capability vars from this branch). All 284 workflows recompiled successfully.
