Temperance Parallel Dispatch
Route each independent task to the right rail. Build on
superpowers:dispatching-parallel-agents (the in-session subagent primitive),
then add governed native non-Codex Claude profiles and the Codex-compatible
external rail. Spark is optional and every Sol-family model is excluded unless
the user separately authorizes it.
Protocol
Split. For each task decide: needs this live session or shared tools ->
in-session subagent; bounded read-only analysis -> native non-Codex; isolated
file mutation -> worktree worker; trivial one-shot -> inline.
In-session subagent rail. Dispatch independent subagent tasks together.
This rail inherits the current agent runtime and is distinct from the native
OmniRoute Claude rail below.
Governed worker rail. Choose one of these explicit modes:
Native non-Codex mode (current default for bounded analysis): pin one
of antigravity-claude-sonnet-5, gh-claude-sonnet-5,
no-think-antigravity-claude-sonnet-5, or
no-think-gh-claude-sonnet-5 through temperance-claude. Run at most four
independent processes concurrently. For audits, require --tools "",
--permission-mode plan, --no-session-persistence, a finite
--max-budget-usd, --output-format json, private mode-600 output files,
and gateway attribution. Native tasks that can edit must use Claude's
--worktree; never allow two workers to share a mutable checkout.
Governed heterogeneous mode (for Codex-compatible coding fleets):
write every task with
explicit backend:"omniroute" and an exact non-Sol model that has passed
the relevant client-wire, tool-loop, nontrivial-output, and receipt gates.
Pin models per task capability; do not treat catalog presence as execution
compatibility. Run temperance-batch --foreground --tasks tasks.json --concurrency 4. Keep TEMPERANCE_OMNIROUTE_CODEX_SANDBOX=read-only when
the Codex CLI is the wire client for audit tasks. External Codex workers
ignore the operator's user configuration by default while retaining the
repository rule surface. Their task packets must therefore be
self-contained: include the bounded objective, exact allowed paths,
required evidence, and every task-specific policy pointer instead of
depending on ambient PAI hooks, user plugins, or prior conversation.
Exact TEMPERANCE_OMNIROUTE_CODEX_ISOLATED=0 is an audited emergency
opt-out, not a routine dispatch setting.
Pinned Spark mode: use exact codex/gpt-5.3-codex-spark only when a
task specifically needs the verified Spark rail or the governed non-Codex
candidates are unavailable. Spark is no longer the only permitted worker.
Governed combo mode: use te-dispatch only after every member passes
the Codex Responses-stream, tool-loop, nontrivial-output, and receipt
correlation gates. A zero exit with only NO or stream-shape errors is a
failed task, never a success.
Pinned mode: set a direct backend/model only when a task needs a
provider-specific capability or a known quota rail.
Concurrent tasks that can mutate files must add --worktree.
--allow-dirty is an explicit stale-HEAD tradeoff, not a default.
Poll + integrate. Require <run>/index.json; read <run>/SUMMARY.md first, then validate nontrivial task output and gateway attribution before accepting ok. In app-orchestrated runs prefer --foreground; a printed detached run directory without an index is not progress. failed/timeout/unavailable or invalid output -> re-dispatch on an explicitly non-Sol rail. For worktree tasks, integrate <run>/<id>.diff.
If temperance-batch prints EXTERNAL_RAIL_UNAVAILABLE, try an applicable
allowlisted native non-Codex profile before using an in-session subagent.
Any failed, timeout, or unavailable task exhausts only frozen non-Sol rails
before fallback.
Native non-Codex example
umask 077
temperance-claude antigravity-claude-sonnet-5 \
-p "Audit architecture only; return evidence; do not edit." \
--tools "" --permission-mode plan --no-session-persistence \
--max-budget-usd 0.25 --output-format json > antigravity.json &
temperance-claude gh-claude-sonnet-5 \
-p "Audit rollback only; return evidence; do not edit." \
--tools "" --permission-mode plan --no-session-persistence \
--max-budget-usd 0.25 --output-format json > github.json &
waitchmod 600 antigravity.json github.json
The two profiles are separate upstream provider families. Validate substantive
terminal results and matching gateway receipts independently; one provider's
success does not promote the other.
Codex-compatible fleet example
[{"id":"router-tests","task":"Add bounded routing tests; return changed files and evidence.","backend":"omniroute","model":"<exact-probe-passing-non-sol-model>"},{"id":"runtime-docs","task":"Update runtime documentation for the accepted routing contract.","backend":"omniroute","model":"<exact-probe-passing-non-sol-model>"}]
temperance-batch owns independent tasks and worktree isolation. OmniRoute
owns the authenticated transport and gateway receipt when the Codex CLI is the
wire client. Batch run directories and retained artifacts are owner-only; the
dispatcher does not impose its permissions on files a worker creates in a
repository or shared cache. te-dispatch remains a candidate combo until all
of its members are compatible with their declared client wire; individually
proven models may still be pinned before combo-wide promotion.
Guarantees
Task text is never eval'd; safe to paste code/errors into task descriptions.
A worker rail can never dead-end the flow: frozen non-Sol fallbacks remain.
Every accepted task must have selected backend/model evidence, nontrivial
output, and gateway attribution. Duplicate or missing correlations remain a
verification failure.
Worker fan-out excludes every Sol-family model unless the user separately
authorizes that quota rail.
External Codex workers retain repository rules but never require ambient
user configuration, hooks, plugins, or conversation to understand a task.
