# Strix → OpenAI Agents SDK Migration Playbook
> The day-1 engineering reference. Distillation of two audit rounds and four implementation deep-dives into actionable specs. All SDK references verified against `openai-agents` v0.14.6 at `/tmp/openai-agents`. Strix references at `9fb1012`.
---
## Reading order
1. `HARNESS_WIKI.md` — what we have today.
2. `MIGRATION_EVALUATION.md` rev 2 — the architectural plan.
3. `AUDIT.md` — first audit; five plan corrections (C1–C5).
4. `AUDIT_R2.md` — Round 1 audit; seven additional corrections (C6–C12).
5. **This file** — file-by-file specs, per-tool contracts, test plans, standards.

## 1. Consolidated corrections register
Twelve corrections to apply, ordered by phase. Every fix is bounded and source-verified.
| # | Severity | Defect | Fix shape | Apply in |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| **C1** | Blocker | SDK runs tools in parallel within a turn (`run_internal/tool_execution.py:1414, 1424`); Strix tool server cancels previous task for same agent (`tool_server.py:94-97`). | Phase 1 safe default: `ModelSettings(parallel_tool_calls=False)` + `RunConfig(isolate_parallel_failures=False)`. Phase 6 relaxation: remove the cancel logic, allow concurrent same-agent tool calls. | Phase 1 / 6 |
| **C2** | Blocker | Plan §3.2 said `extra_body["cache_control"]` injects Anthropic prompt cache. Verified — that lands at request level, not on system message. Caches nothing. | `AnthropicCachingLitellmModel` subclass — override `get_response`/`stream_response` to inject `cache_control` on the system message before super delegation. | Phase 0 |
| **C3** | Blocker | `DockerSandboxClient._create_container()` (`sandbox/sandboxes/docker.py:1434-1477`) has no kwarg-injection hook. | Subclass + duplicate parent body verbatim, append `create_kwargs.setdefault("cap_add", []).extend(["NET_ADMIN","NET_RAW"])` and `create_kwargs.setdefault("extra_hosts", {})["host.docker.internal"] = "host-gateway"`. Pin SDK version. | Phase 0 |
| **C4** | Blocker | Subagent `agent_finish` returns from a tool; SDK loop continues to `max_turns` unless told to stop. | Every child Agent: `tool_use_behavior={"stop_at_tool_names": ["agent_finish"]}`. Root Agent: `tool_use_behavior={"stop_at_tool_names": ["finish_scan"]}`. | Phase 3 |
| **C5** | High | TUI today polls `tracer.streaming_content` per-chunk; SDK's `Runner.run_streamed().stream_events()` is event-driven. | `StrixStreamAccumulator` consumes `RawResponsesStreamEvent` + `RunItemStreamEvent` and synthesizes legacy tracer API. Hooks bridge for non-streamed children. | Phase 5 |
| **C6** | Critical | `notes/notes_actions.py:_append_note_event` writes JSONL without lock. Two concurrent agents corrupt file. | Wrap `f.write(...)` in `with _notes_lock:`. Same for `_persist_wiki_note()`. | Phase 2 |
| **C7** | Critical | `telemetry/tracer.py:_append_event_record` calls `append_jsonl_record` without acquiring `_get_events_write_lock()`. | Wrap append in the existing lock. Apply identically in our custom `TracingProcessor`. | Phase 1 |
| **C8** | High | Subagent crash in daemon thread is silent — parent's `wait_for_message` polls forever. Same shape post-migration if a child `Runner.run` task raises. | `StrixOrchestrationHooks.on_agent_end` detects crash (output is None or `agent_finish` flag absent in context); pushes synthetic `<agent_crash>` message to parent inbox so filter surfaces it. | Phase 3 |
| **C9** | High | Root cancellation does NOT cascade to children spawned via `asyncio.create_task` in `create_agent` tool. | `cancel_run_with_descendants(bus, root_id)` walks `bus.parent_of` tree leaf-first and `task.cancel()`s each. Wired to CLI signal handler + TUI stop. | Phase 3 |
| **C10** | Medium | Memory compressor LLM call exception bubbles to agent loop, killing the whole iteration. Defeats the purpose. | Custom `Session` wraps compressor invocation in try/except; on failure, returns uncompressed history. Downstream context-window error is itself retryable. | Phase 1 |
| **C11** | Medium | Strix today fails fast on 401/403/400. SDK retry policy default may include them. | Explicit `ModelRetrySettings.policy = retry_policies.any(network_error(), http_status([429,500,502,503,504]))` — note 401/403/400 NOT included. Bake into `make_run_config()` factory. | Phase 1 |
| **C12** | Medium | `_completed_agent_llm_totals` read by tracer without lock. | Bus `total_stats()` reads under `asyncio.Lock`; tracer goes through bus. | Phase 3 (in design) |
---
## 2. Foundation files (concrete skeletons)
Seven load-bearing modules, plus three supporting ones. Every skeleton is non-stub — copy-edit, fill, ship.

**Tests:** assert system message acquires `cache_control` for Anthropic; assert non-Anthropic passes through; `cache_read_input_tokens > 0` on call 2 of identical-prompt sequence.

## 4. Per-tool migration contracts
Compact table — one row per tool, expanded notes for non-trivial ones.
### 4.1 Sandbox tools (POST to tool server)
Every sandbox tool follows the same shape:
```python
from strix.tools._decorator import strix_tool
from strix.tools._sandbox_dispatch import post_to_sandbox
from agents import RunContextWrapper, ToolOutputText, ToolOutputImage
@strix_tool(timeout=160) # outer SDK > inner httpx (150)
async def <name>(ctx: RunContextWrapper, ...args) -> str | list:
result = await post_to_sandbox(ctx, "<server_tool_name>", {<kwargs>})
if "error" in result:
return result["error"]
# Tool-specific result shaping (extract screenshot, truncate, etc.)
return _shape_result(result)
```
| Tool | Server-side name | Args | Return shape | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `browser_action` | `browser_action` | `action: str, **action_kwargs` | `[ToolOutputImage(base64), ToolOutputText(state)]` | Extract `screenshot` key as image; rest as text. 24 actions. Truncate page-source/console at server. |
| `terminal_execute` | `terminal_execute` | `command: str, is_input=False, timeout=30, terminal_id="default", no_enter=False` | `ToolOutputText(content + status + exit_code)` | Per-`(agent_id, terminal_id)` libtmux session at server. |
| `python_action` | `python_action` | `action: str, code: str | None, session_id="default", timeout=30` | `ToolOutputText(stdout + stderr + result_repr)` | Per-`(agent_id, session_id)` IPython kernel. |
| `list_requests` | `list_requests` | `httpql_filter: str | None, start_page=1, end_page=1, page_size=50, sort_by="timestamp", sort_order="desc"` | `ToolOutputText(json)` | Caido. |
| `view_request` | `view_request` | `request_id: str, search_pattern: str | None, part="response"` | `ToolOutputText(json)` | Caido. |
| `send_request` | `send_request` | `method: str, url: str, headers={}, body=""` | `ToolOutputText(json)` | Caido. |
| `repeat_request` | `repeat_request` | `request_id: str, modifications: dict` | `ToolOutputText(json)` | Caido. |
| `scope_rules` | `scope_rules` | `action: Literal["list","create","update","delete"], **kwargs` | `ToolOutputText(json)` | Caido. |
| `list_sitemap` | `list_sitemap` | `parent_id: str | None, page_size=50` | `ToolOutputText(json)` | Caido. |
| `view_sitemap_entry` | `view_sitemap_entry` | `node_id: str` | `ToolOutputText(json)` | Caido. |
### 4.2 Local tools (in-process)
| Tool | Module | Signature | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| `create_note` / `list_notes` / `get_note` / `update_note` / `delete_note` | `strix/tools/notes/` | per Strix today | **Apply C6**: lock JSONL writes. Per-agent state silo via `ctx.context["agent_id"]`. |
| `create_todo` / `list_todos` / `update_todo` / `mark_todo_done` / `mark_todo_pending` / `delete_todo` | `strix/tools/todo/` | per Strix today | In-memory only; not persisted. |
| `create_vulnerability_report` | `strix/tools/reporting/` | All current required+optional fields | Calls existing `llm/dedupe.py` via nested `Runner.run` or direct `litellm.acompletion`. Wires `vulnerability_found_callback` via `ToolOutputGuardrail` for TUI popup. |
| `web_search` | `strix/tools/web_search/` | `query: str` | Direct Perplexity API; do NOT use SDK's `WebSearchTool` (Responses-only, OpenAI-only). |
| `str_replace_editor` / `list_files` / `search_files` | `strix/tools/file_edit/` | per Strix today | Wrap openhands-aci + ripgrep. SDK auto-threads sync. |
| `finish_scan` | `strix/tools/finish/` | per Strix today | Root-only guard: `if ctx.context["parent_id"] is not None: return error`. Sets `ctx.context["agent_finish_called"] = True`. **Root agent uses `tool_use_behavior={"stop_at_tool_names": ["finish_scan"]}`.** |
| `think` | `strix/tools/thinking/` | `thought: str` | Trivial; `return f"Recorded {len(thought)} chars"`. |
| `load_skill` | `strix/tools/load_skill/` | `skills: list[str]` (max 5) | Returns skill content as `ToolOutputText` (accepted tradeoff). Validates against skill registry. |
### 4.3 Multi-agent graph tools
All in `strix/tools/agents_graph.py`. Use `bus = ctx.context["bus"]`, `me = ctx.context["agent_id"]`.
```python
@strix_tool(timeout=30)

## 5. Standards: logging, error formatting, observability
### 5.1 Logging
| Logger | Level | When |
|---|---|---|
| `strix.orchestration.bus` | DEBUG | every send/drain/finalize |
| `strix.orchestration.hooks` | INFO | agent start/end; WARNING on crash detection |
| `strix.tools.<name>` | DEBUG | tool entry/exit; WARNING on user-recoverable error |
| `strix.runtime.strix_docker_client` | INFO | container created; ERROR on creation failure |
| `strix.sandbox.caido_capability` | INFO | bind/healthcheck-task lifecycle |
| `strix.sandbox.session_manager` | INFO | session create/reuse/cleanup |
| `strix.llm.anthropic_cache_wrapper` | DEBUG | cache_control injection events |
| `strix.telemetry.strix_processor` | WARNING | sanitization mismatches |
Verbose mode flag: `--verbose` → `agents.set_default_logging("DEBUG")` + `enable_verbose_stdout_logging()`. Production keeps `OPENAI_AGENTS_DONT_LOG_MODEL_DATA=1` (default) so model I/O isn't logged.
Never logged anywhere: `LLM_API_KEY`, `TOOL_SERVER_TOKEN`, anything the existing `TelemetrySanitizer` patterns match.
### 5.2 Error formatting
| Layer | Recipient | Format |
|---|---|---|
| Tool body | LLM | Plain `str` returned from tool. Convention: `"Error: <reason>"` for failures. |
| Tool body | User | Visible only via TUI when popup-worthy (vulnerability popup hooks via `ToolOutputGuardrail`). |
| Sandbox dispatch | LLM | `{"error": "..."}` → returned as `Error: ...` string. |
| Hook | Logs only | `logger.exception(...)` for unhandled in hooks; never propagated (would tear down the run). |
| Agent crash | Parent | `<agent_crash agent_id='X' name='Y'>...</agent_crash>` user message via bus. |
| Run-level exception | CLI | Exit code 1 (general failure), 2 (vulns found in headless), 130 (Ctrl+C). |
| Run-level exception | Trace | `error.kind`, `error.message`, `error.traceback` span attributes (post-scrub). |
### 5.3 Observability during migration
While both old (Strix) and new (SDK-based) live in parallel:
- **Comparison metrics**: per-run, log `total_input_tokens`, `total_output_tokens`, `cost`, `findings_count`, `wall_clock_seconds`. Diff old vs new with same target set.
- **Drift detection**: identical `--target` should produce equivalent (not byte-identical) findings. Track findings-by-CWE histogram.
- **Canary mode**: feature flag `STRIX_USE_SDK_HARNESS=1` or separate CLI command (`strix-sdk`) until cut-over. Two CLIs let users opt in.
- **Event compatibility**: `events.jsonl` schema must remain compatible — the custom `TracingProcessor` emits the same `event_type` values as today's tracer.
---
## 6. Test plans per phase
### Phase 0 — Spike & corrections
**Smoke tests** (must all pass before Phase 1 starts):
- `test_anthropic_cache_wrapper_injection` — system message has `cache_control`; non-Anthropic passes through.
- `test_anthropic_cache_hit_rate` — three identical-prompt calls; call 2+ shows `cache_read_input_tokens > 0`.
- `test_strix_docker_client_caps` — mock `containers.create`; assert `cap_add ⊇ {NET_ADMIN, NET_RAW}` and `extra_hosts["host.docker.internal"]=="host-gateway"`.
- `test_strix_docker_client_live` — real Kali image; `session.exec(["nmap", "-sS", "scanme.nmap.org"])` returns exit 0.
- `test_message_bus_two_children_exchange` — minimal `MessageBus` with two synthetic agents; verify FIFO message delivery via filter injection.
- `test_tool_use_behavior_stop_on_finish` — toy agent with `agent_finish`-equivalent + `stop_at_tool_names`; assert SDK terminates exactly when tool is called.
- `test_tool_server_concurrent_same_agent_calls` — issue two simultaneous POSTs to local tool server with same `agent_id`; current code cancels first; observe behavior; choose Phase 1 default (`parallel_tool_calls=False`).
### Phase 1 — Foundation
**Unit tests:**
- `MultiProvider` resolution: `strix/claude-sonnet-4.6` → `AnthropicCachingLitellmModel` with correct base URL.
- `strix_tool` decorator: timeout applied; sync auto-threaded.
- `StrixSession`: 100K-token history triggers compression; compressor failure returns uncompressed.
- `StrixTracingProcessor`: 100 concurrent span writes, JSONL is valid (no interleaved bytes); PII patterns scrubbed.
- `RunConfig` factory: retry policy excludes 401 explicitly; `parallel_tool_calls=False` default.
**Integration tests:**
- Full single-agent run with `LitellmModel` against an Anthropic mock; verify cache_control reaches the model.
- Cost tracking via `RunHooks.on_llm_end` matches `litellm.cost_per_token` calculation within 1%.
### Phase 2 — Tool ports
**Per-tool smoke tests** (one per `@strix_tool`):
- Browser: `launch` → `goto("https://example.com")` → screenshot returned as `ToolOutputImage`; viewport 1280x720; per-agent tab keying.
- Terminal: `terminal_execute("echo hello")` → status=completed, exit_code=0. Special key: `terminal_execute("C-c", is_input=True)` no error.
- Python: `python_action(action="execute", code="x=1; x+1")` → result `"2"`.
- Caido: `list_requests(httpql_filter="request.method == 'GET'")` returns JSON with `requests` array.
- Notes: concurrent `create_note` from two agents; assert JSONL parses line-by-line (C6 fix).
- Reporting: full `create_vulnerability_report` payload; CVSS computed; persisted to `vulnerabilities/vuln_*.json`; dedup roundtrip works.
- File edit: `str_replace_editor("create", "/workspace/foo.txt", file_text="x")` → file exists.
**Reentrancy tests:** if/when Phase 6 enables parallel: assert two parallel `terminal_execute` calls on same agent with different `terminal_id` don't collide (different libtmux sessions).
### Phase 3 — Multi-agent
**Unit tests:**
- `AgentMessageBus`: 1000 concurrent `send`/`drain` ops; FIFO maintained; `total_stats` snapshot consistent.
- `inject_messages_filter`: pending messages appended in order; user-from-user skips XML wrap; idempotent under retry simulation.
- `StrixOrchestrationHooks.on_agent_end`: crash detection fires when `agent_finish_called` False; sends `<agent_crash>` to parent.
- `bus.cancel_descendants`: tree of N=10 agents; all cancelled leaf-first.
**Integration:**
- Root spawns 2 children in parallel; children exchange messages; both finish via `agent_finish`; root reads completion reports; `bus.total_stats` aggregates correctly.
- Root + 1 child; user Ctrl+C mid-run; both tasks cancelled; processor flushes all pending events.
- Crashed child scenario: child `Runner.run` raises `RuntimeError`; parent receives `<agent_crash>` within next turn.
### Phase 4 — Sandbox + Caido
**Integration:**
- `create_or_reuse(scan_id="x", ...)` twice → same session; `session.exec(["echo", "hi"])` works.
- Caido capability: container has `http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:48080` env; `curl https://example.com` is captured by Caido (verify via `list_requests` shows the request).
- Healthcheck: stop tool server inside container; `wait_for_ports_ready` raises after 30s.
### Phase 5 — Interface + persistence
**Tests:**
- `StrixStreamAccumulator`: feed mock `RunResultStreaming` events; tracer's `streaming_content[agent_id]` updates.
- TUI: under simulated agent run, refresh latency < 500ms after each LLM chunk.
- Run-directory: post-run, `events.jsonl` valid; `vulnerabilities/` populated; `penetration_test_report.md` non-empty.
### Phase 6 — Validation + tool server relaxation
**End-to-end:**
- Full pentest against a stable target (a vulnerable webapp pinned in tests). Compare findings (count + CVSS distribution + CWE histogram) vs Strix baseline within agreed tolerance.
- Stress: 3 child agents, parallel tool calls within turn, no JSONL corruption, no message loss.
- After tool server relaxation: `parallel_tool_calls=True`; multi-tool turn fires correctly; sibling failure isolation works.

## 7. Rollback, CI, cross-cutting
### 7.1 Branching & cutover
- Branch: `harness-migration` (already created).
- Cutover trigger: Phase 6 acceptance criteria met (golden-output diff within tolerance).
- Pre-cutover: SDK-based path lives behind `STRIX_USE_SDK_HARNESS=1`. Old path unchanged.
- Cutover: flip default to SDK-based; legacy path stays for one release as fallback.
- Removal of legacy: after one release with no rollback signals.
### 7.2 Rollback procedure
If post-cut regression discovered:
1. Set `STRIX_USE_SDK_HARNESS=0` in deployed config (re-uses legacy harness).
2. Investigate via traces/events.jsonl from the failed run.
3. Fix, re-run end-to-end suite, re-cut.
### 7.3 Data compatibility
- `events.jsonl` schema preserved (custom processor emits same `event_type`s).
- `vulnerabilities/vuln_*.json` schema preserved (same Pydantic shape).
- `penetration_test_report.md` schema preserved.
- `notes/notes.jsonl` schema preserved.
- Old runs are still analyzable by new tooling (no migration script needed).
### 7.4 SDK version pinning
- `pyproject.toml`: `openai-agents==0.14.6` (exact pin while we duplicate `_create_container`).
- CI nightly: re-run our Phase 0 spike against SDK `latest`. If green, bump pin and re-test.
- Track upstream PR to add `additional_create_kwargs` hook that would let us drop the body duplication.
### 7.5 CI changes
- New test buckets: `tests/orchestration/`, `tests/sandbox/`, `tests/llm_wrappers/`, `tests/integration/`.
- Snapshot tests for golden outputs (one or two stable targets).
- Mypy strict on new SDK types; install `openai-agents` package types.
- Lint rules for tool decorators (`@strix_tool` not bare `@function_tool` for new tools).
### 7.6 Drop / add deps
- Drop direct: `litellm[proxy]>=1.81.1,<1.82.0` (becomes transitive via `openai-agents[litellm]`).
- Add: `openai-agents[litellm]==0.14.6`.
- Keep: `tenacity`, `pydantic`, `rich`, `docker`, `textual`, `cvss`, `traceloop-sdk`, `opentelemetry-exporter-otlp-proto-http`, `scrubadub`, `defusedxml`.

## 8. Phase ordering and day-1 commit list
### Phase ordering (compressed)
- **Phase 0** — Foundations + spikes. Land the 3 wrapper classes, run all Phase 0 smoke tests.
- **Phase 1** — Foundation files (rest), provider layer, `strix_tool`, custom `Session`, custom `TracingProcessor`, `RunConfig` factory.
- **Phase 2** — Tool ports. Sandbox dispatcher first, then all 30+ tools incrementally.
- **Phase 3** — Multi-agent: bus, filter, hooks, six graph tools. End-to-end parallel-children test.
- **Phase 4** — `CaidoCapability` + healthcheck + session cache by scan_id.
- **Phase 5** — TUI / streaming accumulator / run-directory persistence / turn warnings.
- **Phase 6** — Validation + tool server relaxation + parallel tool calls flip.
### Day-1 commits (Phase 0)
In order; each is independent until linked at Phase 0 acceptance.
1. `strix/llm/anthropic_cache_wrapper.py` — `AnthropicCachingLitellmModel`. Tests: cache injection + non-Anthropic passthrough.
2. `strix/runtime/strix_docker_client.py` — `StrixDockerSandboxClient`. Tests: kwarg injection mock + live nmap.
3. `strix/orchestration/bus.py` — `AgentMessageBus`. Tests: concurrency stress + cancel_descendants.
4. `strix/orchestration/filter.py` — `inject_messages_filter`. Tests: FIFO + retry-stable.
5. `strix/orchestration/hooks.py` — `StrixOrchestrationHooks`. Tests: crash detection + warning injection.
6. `strix/tools/_decorator.py` — `strix_tool`. Tests: timeout + sync auto-threading.
7. `strix/llm/multi_provider_setup.py` — `MultiProviderMap` + `StrixModelProvider`. Tests: alias resolution.
### Phase 0 acceptance gate
All seven module unit tests green. The seven Phase 0 smoke tests in §6 green. Tool server concurrent-call test executed; result documented. Only then proceed to Phase 1.
