Troubleshooting

Common issues and solutions for ACGP implementations.


Common Issues

Minimal Tier Warnings

Problem: Warnings about missing features when using Minimal conformance

Context: Minimal conformance is designed for development and learning. You may see warnings about: - Limited intervention types (only OK/BLOCK) - No governance contracts - No trust system - No advanced ARS/CTQ evaluation

Solutions: - These warnings are expected for Minimal tier - For production systems, upgrade to Standard Conformance - Minimal tier is perfect for learning, development, and batch jobs - All features are optional - add them when needed


High Latency

Problem: Actions take too long to complete

Solutions: - Use lower ACL tier (ACL-0 or ACL-1) - Implement async evaluation - Check network latency to steward - Optimize trace size


Too Many Interventions

Problem: Agent is constantly blocked or escalated

Solutions: - Review and adjust blueprint policies - Check tripwire thresholds - Improve trace reasoning quality - Consider lowering ACL tier temporarily


Authentication Errors

Problem: Connection to steward fails

Solutions: - Verify API keys/certificates - Check network connectivity - Confirm steward endpoint URL - Review firewall rules


Trust Score Issues

Problem: Trust score not changing as expected

Solutions: - Check trust calculation configuration - Verify outcome recording - Review trust adjustment events - Check for trust decay settings
