MetaGPT AW Scout

scripts/metagpt-aw-scout.sh is the safe project wrapper for using the MetaGPT-configured LLM provider with ActivityWatch-Russian tasks.

Default mode is direct LLM scout through /home/igor/.metagpt/config2.yaml. This avoids MetaGPT Browser/Editor tools, which are too noisy for operational checklists.

Optional MetaGPT team mode is still available:

METAGPT_AW_ENGINE=team scripts/metagpt-aw-scout.sh smoke

Do not use full --implement mode with the free Groq tier for this project. It pulls too much context and usually exceeds TPM limits.

Setup

Use a valid provider key outside git:

export GROQ_API_KEY="gsk_..."

The global wrapper /home/igor/bin/metagpt-lab can write the key into /home/igor/.metagpt/config2.yaml. The scout script reads that config and does not print secrets.

Presets

scripts/metagpt-aw-scout.sh qa-rollback
scripts/metagpt-aw-scout.sh smoke
scripts/metagpt-aw-scout.sh grafana
scripts/metagpt-aw-scout.sh install-kit
scripts/metagpt-aw-scout.sh windows-i18n

Free-form task:

scripts/metagpt-aw-scout.sh "Review risk of changing aw-worktime-ui-bridge foreground cache"

Reports are saved under:

.ai/metagpt/

Current Rule

The LLM is only a scout. Codex/operator must verify every material claim against local files, live services, Ansible output, Grafana, and ActivityWatch APIs before changing production behavior. Use METAGPT_AW_ENGINE=team only for experiments; direct mode is the operational default.
