Autonomous operator agent
The operator
that admits failure.
rig-captain runs plan → execute → verify, with a verifier that ignores the executor’s own success claim entirely — and when verification fails, it switches strategy instead of retrying the same plan twice.

Why teams install
What rig-captain earns back
Never trusts claimed_success
verify() recomputes pass/fail from acceptance_criteria met — the executor’s own optimistic self-report is discarded entirely.
‹2c6301c›Recovers 4 of 5 structurally-trapped objectives
25% of the 20-objective benchmark trip the default strategy by design; strategy-switching recovers 80% of those.
‹50fed99›One unrecoverable objective, and it says so
1 of 20 objectives is structurally outside every configured strategy — rig-captain reports it unreachable, not fudged as a pass.
‹1c566fe›How it works
Three steps. No faith required.
01
Plan
Select a strategy — direct, decompose, tool-augmented — for the objective.
02
Execute
Run it. The executor reports claimed_success — and it is ignored.
03
Verify or Switch
Independent verification recomputes pass/fail; a fail rotates to the next strategy, never a blind retry.

Objections
Answered before you ask
Isn’t this just retry-with-backoff?
Retry-with-backoff repeats the same plan hoping for a different outcome. rig-captain rotates strategy — direct, decompose, tool-augmented — on every failed verification, and disabling that switch drops recovery to exactly 0%.
How do you know the executor isn’t just self-reporting success?
verify() never reads claimed_success. It recomputes pass/fail from acceptance_criteria met, independently, every time.
What happens to genuinely impossible objectives?
1 of 20 benchmark objectives is structurally unreachable by every configured strategy — rig-captain reports it unrecoverable instead of quietly inflating the success rate.
