Greenhorn / literal onboarding audit

NO DOCUMENTED CHECKPOINT

Setup ran clean; the README never defines done.

A documented setup action completed, but the documentation names no repository test, endpoint, or output marker that Greenhorn can independently verify.

Command lifecycles

A proposed command, its independent ruling, and its Docker result share one step. Nothing is silently skipped.

  1. 1

    Documentation scope

    Greenhorn loaded docs

    Documentation scope

    Loaded 1 documentation files (depth ≤2, cap 6; external links disabled).

    Command lifecycle

    Codex proposedGPT-5.6 ruledDocker executed
    npm install p-queueLICENSEDFRICTION
    Documentation evidencenpm install p-queue

    The README explicitly documents `npm install p-queue` under Install, and the proposed command is an exact match. The project metadata does not downgrade an exact documented command.

    Literal readings considered
    • The proposed command exactly matches the documented installation command.
    • The command installs the p-queue package using npm.

    SHELL RECEIVED: YESAccepted command reached the isolated Docker executor.

What the newcomer could read

How the run was contained

Read the isolation statement

Ubuntu 24.04 container, new filesystem state, source copied inside at run start. Codex reasons in a separate empty host scratch directory; the Azure GPT-5.6 key stays on the host. Only accepted commands reach the container shell.

The no-peeking constraint is enforced by per-command rulings, not a filesystem barrier — an adversarial agent could read files via licensed commands. Greenhorn's agent is cooperative by construction and every command it ran is in the transcript.

Read the newcomer contract
You are a brand-new developer on your first day. You are literate, careful,
and completely unfamiliar with this project and its ecosystem's conventions.
1. Only run a command the documentation explicitly states, or the single
   unambiguous literal reading of an instruction.
2. Ambiguous instruction (multiple reasonable readings)? Do not choose.
   Halt that path and record every reading you see.
3. On failure: read the error, re-read the docs for a documented remedy.
   Never debug from your own knowledge.
4. Never install/configure/invoke anything the docs never mentioned.
5. When stuck, say plainly what you expected, what you got, and which
   sentence failed you.
6. Undocumented environment values (keys, URLs) = dead end. Never invent.

# Deliberately small and inspectable: no project state, dotfiles, or cached package manager data.
