+name: extending-hobby-smoke-tests
+description: Design, extend, review, or debug PostHog Hobby end-to-end smoke tests in bin/hobby-ci.py and .github/workflows/ci-hobby.yml. Use when adding an ingestion round trip, deciding whether a product belongs in Hobby CI, changing the CI Hobby service topology or API-key scopes, or diagnosing a smoke test that captures data but cannot query it.
+---
+
+# Extending Hobby smoke tests
+
+Treat Hobby CI as proof that a supported Hobby install works across real process boundaries. Keep each check small, strong, and limited to a stable product surface.
+
+## Decide whether the check belongs
+
+Add a check only when all of these are true:
+
+- The product is supported for Hobby deployments and is no longer alpha.
+- A break can leave the install apparently healthy while the product is unusable.
+- The check crosses boundaries that unit or service integration tests cannot cover, such as capture, queue, consumer, storage, and query API.
+- The released Hobby images and default compose topology contain every required service.
+- A deterministic request and an exact read-back assertion are available.
+
+Do not add the check when it requires a private feature flag, a CI-only service topology, or a different image registry only to make an alpha path available. Test that path at a lower layer until it becomes part of the supported Hobby install.
+
+If the check exposes a missing service or configuration that every supported Hobby install needs, fix the install and add the check together. If the missing plumbing exists only for the proposed test, stop and reconsider the check.
+
+## Map the round trip before editing
+
+Write down this chain from repository evidence:
+
+```text
+public ingest endpoint -> request contract -> service/consumer -> storage -> read API -> required scope
+```
+
+Verify each link:
+
+1. Find an existing end-to-end or receiver fixture for the ingest payload. Reuse its envelope and minimum valid data instead of inventing a plausible payload.
+2. Locate the consumer command and confirm it exists in the released image used by `docker-compose.hobby.yml`.
+3. Confirm the consumer is already started by the default Hobby compose files.
+4. Confirm no unreleased or private feature flag is required.
+5. Find the supported read API and its personal API-key scope.
+6. Identify a unique value that can select only the captured object.
+
+Do this before starting a full Hobby run. A successful HTTP capture response proves receipt, not ingestion.
+
+## Build the smallest strong check
+
+Change `bin/hobby-ci.py` for the round trip and `bin/hobby-ci-setup-user.py` only for the least read scope needed.
+
+- Generate collision-resistant identifiers with UUIDs or nanosecond timestamps.
+- Record the query window before capture.
+- Send the smallest payload known to reach storage.
+- Fail immediately on a non-success capture response and include a short response body.
+- Poll the supported read API with the exact identifier.
+- Require the expected stored object or value. An HTTP 200 with an empty result is not success.
+- Use the existing bounded timeout and polling style.
+- Preserve earlier smoke checks and return a result that names every completed round trip.
+- Keep one product idea per PR when the checks can fail independently.
+
+Avoid adding general abstractions for a single payload. Extract a helper only when it removes real repetition or gives a concept a useful name.
+
+## Validate from cheap to expensive
+
+Run focused checks before asking Hobby CI to create a server:
+
+```bash
+python3 -m py_compile bin/hobby-ci.py bin/hobby-ci-setup-user.py
+ruff check bin/hobby-ci.py bin/hobby-ci-setup-user.py
+ruff format --check bin/hobby-ci.py bin/hobby-ci-setup-user.py
+git diff --check
+```
+
+When compose or installer files change, also render the final compose configuration and run the focused installer tests. Inspect the rendered image and command for every added service.
+
+Use a PR-specific image only when the PR changes code that must be built into that image. Do not change workflow path filters or registries merely because a smoke-test-only PR needs an unreleased service.
+
+Then run Hobby CI once and follow the exact run through image build, cloud setup, health, and ingestion. Do not restart a healthy migration phase just because it is slow.
+
+## Read failures by boundary
+
+Use the first failed boundary to choose the next investigation:
+
+| Evidence                                  | Likely boundary                                              |
+| ----------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| Capture returns 4xx                       | Endpoint, token, or payload envelope                         |
+| Read API returns 401 or 403               | Personal key scope or feature access                         |
+| Capture succeeds, exact query stays empty | Payload semantics, missing consumer, routing, or storage     |
+| Added container is absent or unhealthy    | Released image or default compose topology                   |
+| Query returns 200 with empty series       | Not success; keep polling or strengthen the assertion        |
+| Earlier product checks fail too           | Shared install or trunk failure, not the new assertion alone |
+
+Pull the failed job log before editing. Confirm the hypothesis against the receiver fixture, consumer registration, compose rendering, and API implementation. Do not run another full deployment on a guessed payload.
+
+## Review the final diff
+
+Before publishing, prove the PR contains only what the supported round trip requires:
+
+- No alpha-only feature flags.
+- No registry or image-build changes unless product code in the PR requires a new image.
+- No new service unless that service belongs in every supported Hobby install.
+- No broad API scope.
+- No assertion that accepts an empty response.
+- No synthetic payload that lacks a known accepted fixture.
+
+Update the PR description with the exact ingest and read-back proof. State any product intentionally excluded because it is not yet stable.

Keep `DEBUG` on and use `CLOUD_DEPLOYMENT=E2E` for cloud-mode dev instead. See [dev-env-vars.md](dev-env-vars.md) |

 Summaries are written where the diff is. The reviewer emits a one-line `change_summary` alongside its verdict, which is stamped onto the merged PR; the daily run condenses those rather than guessing from PR titles, and for an owning team it also sees which of the changed files are theirs, so a repo-wide sweep that grazed two of them can be dropped as noise.
 
+## Stacked PRs
+
+A stacked PR targets its parent's branch, not the repo's default branch, and depends on parent code that hasn't merged yet.
+The sandbox clones and checks out the PR head for every review, so the reviewer's Read/Grep/Glob already see the post-stack tree and parent symbols resolve.
+The engine is told the checkout is the head (`head_checkout=True`) so it never builds the Action's separate head worktree, and the prompt flags the PR as stacked (`PRData.stacked`, keyed on the repo's actual default branch).
+The diff stays scoped `base...head`.
+When the parent merges and GitHub retargets the child onto the default branch, the diff changes without a push: the webhook path retracts the standing approval and queues a fresh run, and `post_verdict` rechecks the live base (ref and SHA) against the reviewed one before posting.
+Engine details: [`tools/pr-approval-agent/README.md`](../../tools/pr-approval-agent/README.md#stacked-prs-graphite--git-stacks).

 ## Configuration
 
 Per-repo settings live on `StamphogRepoConfig` (synced via the GitHub App install flow, managed in the Stamphog scene): review on/off, review mode (auto vs trigger label), digest on/off. Review policy (gates, deny-lists, tiers, ownership) is read from `.stamphog/policy.yml` on the repo's **default branch** — never from the PR head — layered over hosted defaults in [`backend/logic/policy_defaults/`](backend/logic/policy_defaults/).

 This identity was confirmed to satisfy branch protection, so the earlier bodyless `github-actions[bot]` fallback approval has been dropped and every stamphog action now runs under the app token.
 Every other verdict (REFUSED, ESCALATE, WAIT, ERROR) goes into a single sticky comment that is updated in place on each run, with a counter of how many verdicts the comment has carried (failure notes append without bumping it) — repeated refusals don't stack up as separate review comments on the PR.
 
+## Stacked PRs (Graphite / git stacks)
+
+A stacked PR targets its parent branch, not the repo's default branch, and depends on code the parent introduces but hasn't merged yet.
+`PRData.stacked` (`base_ref != default_branch`, so repos whose trunk is `main` work too) drives the handling; the reviewer prompt tells the agent it is looking at a stacked PR.
+Two parts make stamphog correct on these:
+
+- **Exploration sees the post-stack tree.**
+  The LLM reviewer's `Read`/`Grep`/`Glob` must run over a tree that already contains the parent PRs' code, so symbols from a not-yet-merged parent resolve and aren't flagged as broken imports.
+  The diff itself is still computed `base_sha...head_sha`, so the review is scoped to exactly this PR's changes.
+  How the head tree is materialized differs per runtime:
+  - **Action:** the workflow checks out master (hardcoded, so a PR can't swap the review script), so the reviewer explores a detached **worktree at the PR head** created just for stacked PRs.
+    If the worktree cannot be created, stamphog returns `ERROR` and retains the label rather than reviewing against the wrong source tree.
+    Symbolic links the PR adds or repoints (relative to the default branch's tree, which already carries trusted ones like `CLAUDE.md`) fail closed, so a PR path cannot resolve outside the worktree.
+  - **Hosted:** the sandbox clones and checks out the PR head for every review, so nothing extra is needed — `review_local.py` runs the pipeline with `head_checkout=True` and no worktree is created.
+  - **Security (both runtimes):** the explored tree is PR-authored content.
+    The reviewer runs the Agent SDK with `setting_sources=[]` (isolation mode) plus `strict_mcp_config`, so it does **not** load `.claude/settings.json` hooks (command execution), `CLAUDE.md` (injected instructions), or `.mcp.json` from the tree.
+    Those files are still readable as untrusted _content_ under the anti-injection notice — never as configuration.
+    The diff scratch file is created with `mkstemp` under an unpredictable name, so a tracked symlink in the tree cannot redirect the write.
+
+- **Base retarget dismisses the stale approval.**
+  When a stack's parent merges, the child PR is retargeted from the parent branch onto master, changing its effective diff **without a push** — so no `synchronize` fires and the normal push-dismiss path is skipped.
+  Under the master ruleset (`dismiss_stale_reviews_on_push=false`), a prior bot approval would silently carry onto the new base.
+  The Action listens for the `edited` event and, when the base changed, dismisses the bot approval and re-reviews against the new base (if the label is still present); the approval step also rechecks the live base and head SHAs right before posting.
+  The hosted runtime does the same from the webhook (`_retract_approvals_on_base_retarget`, then a fresh run) and `post_verdict` rechecks the live base ref and SHA against the reviewed ones.
+
+The base commit of a stacked PR is its parent branch tip, which the Action's master checkout doesn't fetch by default — `github.ensure_commits` and the `decide-delta` job both fetch the base branch so `git diff base_sha...head_sha` and the dismiss-time merge classification resolve it.
+The hosted sandbox fetches the base SHA explicitly during the clone.
+
+Known limitation (both runtimes): a parent branch force-push or rebase without restacking the child emits no child PR event, so the child's approval is only revalidated once the child is restacked or pushed.

+
+Known gap: a migration reaches no test through the import graph and matches no
+full-run pattern, so a migration-only diff narrows to whatever else changed. That
+is deliberate for now, not an oversight — forcing a full run on every migration
+would cover a failure mode we have not actually observed, at the cost of the
+narrowing on a very common kind of PR.
