Trace-to-Training: how agent runs become learning data

Every agent run is a data point. Most frameworks throw it away.

WasmAgent keeps it — evaluated by the compliance engine, ranked by outcome, exported as a typed ComplianceEvalRecord

ready for SFT or DPO training. No human labeling.

import { ComplianceRun } from "@wasmagent/compliance";

const run = new ComplianceRun({
  mode: "full_pcl",   // "direct" | "prompt_retry" | "full_pcl"
  taskSpec: {
    instruction: "Write a summary in exactly 3 bullet points.",
    constraints: [{ type: "format", rule: "bullet_count", value: 3 }],
  },
});

const result = await run.execute(agent, input);
// result.complianceEvalRecord → typed, versioned, schema-validated

** direct** — one shot, record pass/fail.

** prompt_retry** — retry once with a rephrased prompt.

** full_pcl** — full repair loop: run → evaluate → patch/regenerate → re-evaluate → record the entire trace.

IFEval × Qwen2.5-1.5B-Q4 (3 seeds × 50 samples):

+8.7pp. The variance drop (±2.0 → ±1.2) matters for production reliability.

Reproduce: bun packages/compliance/benchmarks/ifeval/run.ts --limit=50 --seed=42

When full_pcl

repairs a failing output, RepairPlanner

records every attempt:

// Inside ComplianceEvalRecord
attempts: [
  { strategy: "direct",     output: "...", passed: false },
  { strategy: "patch",      output: "...", passed: false },
  { strategy: "regenerate", output: "...", passed: true  },
]

The full sequence — what failed, what was tried, what worked — is what feeds DPO training. The model learns from failure traces, not just final outputs.

import { RolloutForkRunner, RolloutRanker } from "@wasmagent/core";

const runner = new RolloutForkRunner({ forks: 4 });
const rollouts = await runner.run(agent, input, taskSpec);

const ranked = new RolloutRanker().rank(rollouts);
// ranked[0] → chosen (SFT)
// ranked[1..] → rejected (DPO pairs)

The compliance verifier is the reward signal. No human annotation.
