Trace from molecule-core cycle 107 (2026-04-24): 15 staging PRs stuck DIRTY (real merge conflicts) with 0 merges in 1+ hours. Authors couldn't rebase to fix the conflicts because the pre-commit hook (shipped in 0.1.11) refuses ANY commit that includes forbidden paths in the diff — including rebase replays of historical commits that pre-date the gate. Specifically, agents trying to `git rebase staging` on a PR like "docs(marketing): Phase 30 social copy" fail at the first commit replay because that commit added marketing/* files. The fix would require interactive rebase + manual file deletion + commit amend — agents don't do that, so the PR stays DIRTY indefinitely. Detection: check .git for rebase-merge/, rebase-apply/, CHERRY_PICK_HEAD, MERGE_HEAD, or REVERT_HEAD. These state markers exist only during the corresponding git operation. Skip the hook silently when present. The hook still blocks fresh `git commit` (the failure mode it was designed for). It just doesn't try to police what was already in git history. Bumped to 0.1.14.

molecule-ai-workspace-runtime
Shared Python runtime infrastructure for all Molecule AI agent adapters.
This package provides the core machinery that every Molecule AI workspace container needs:
- A2A server — Registers with the platform, heartbeats, serves A2A JSON-RPC
- Adapter interface —
BaseAdapter/AdapterConfig/SetupResult - Built-in tools — delegation, memory, approvals, sandbox, telemetry
- Skill loader — loads and hot-reloads skill modules from
/configs/skills/ - Plugin system — per-workspace + shared plugin discovery and install
- Config / preflight — YAML config loading with validation
Installation
pip install molecule-ai-workspace-runtime
Adapter Discovery
The runtime discovers adapters in two ways:
-
ADAPTER_MODULEenv var (standalone adapter repos):ADAPTER_MODULE=my_adapter molecule-runtimeThe module must export an
Adapterclass extendingBaseAdapter. -
Built-in subdirectory scan (monorepo local dev): Scans
molecule_runtime/adapters/subdirectories forAdapterclasses.
Writing an Adapter
from molecule_runtime.adapters.base import BaseAdapter, AdapterConfig
from a2a.server.agent_execution import AgentExecutor
class Adapter(BaseAdapter):
@staticmethod
def name() -> str:
return "my-runtime"
@staticmethod
def display_name() -> str:
return "My Runtime"
@staticmethod
def description() -> str:
return "My custom agent runtime"
async def setup(self, config: AdapterConfig) -> None:
result = await self._common_setup(config)
# Store result attributes for create_executor
async def create_executor(self, config: AdapterConfig) -> AgentExecutor:
# Return an AgentExecutor instance
...
Set ADAPTER_MODULE=my_package.adapter and run molecule-runtime.
