Advance one or all submodule pointers in the ACE monorepo to the head of their tracked branch, verify the target commit is pushed upstream, and draft a Conventional-Commit pointer-bump commit. Use when updating submodule pointers after a submodule change has merged.
Generate and run unit tests for the current diff in the correct framework per language (Go testing/table-driven, Python pytest, TS), then report pass/fail. Use before opening a PR to satisfy the "tests added/updated" checklist item.
Open a pull request following the ACE CONTRIBUTING conventions — Conventional-Commit title, the standard PR description template, and auto-detected affected submodules / pointer bumps. Use when the user is ready to raise a PR.
Run the documented certifier end-to-end smoke test against the running FastAPI service (bucketing-extraction → poll → aggregation-certification → poll). Use to verify the certifier API path works before opening a PR.
Build and push all ACE component Docker images to Docker Hub via scripts/build-and-push.sh, confirm the five images pushed, and report the new certifier:latest digest. Use to publish a new release of the images.
Run the full certifier pipeline (Phase 0+1+2+3) locally against a Langfuse trace using scripts/run_certification.py, then summarize the .tmp/ output tree. Use for the certifier inner dev loop without starting the FastAPI service.
Bootstrap a local ACE dev environment — copy and validate .env / build-paths.env, then bring up MongoDB, Langfuse, LiteLLM, and the Certifier via start-local-services.sh. Use when onboarding, after a fresh clone, or when local services are not running.
