Descrizione
### Component
Agent (Python runtime)
### Describe the feature
Prevent the agent from setting **integration trigger labels** that would re-fire webhooks and spawn duplicate tasks (infinite loop / cost blow-up).
Known trigger surfaces today:
| Integration | Default trigger | Set by |
|-------------|-----------------|--------|
| Jira | `bgagent` label | User / automation |
| Linear | `bgagent` label | User / automation |
| Future GitHub label channel | TBD (e.g. `bgagent`) | User only |
Enforcement:
1. **PreToolUse / Cedar hard-deny** on issue-write tools when `labels` includes the configured trigger label for that task's source integration.
2. **Allowlist** of agent-set labels: progress/status labels only (e.g. `agent:implementing`, `agent:pr-created`, `agent:error`) — configurable per integration in Blueprint.
3. **Fail-closed** if task metadata does not include `trigger_label` when issue-write tools are allowed.
### Use case
Linear and Jira processors fire on **label added** events. If the agent posts comments and accidentally (or via prompt injection) re-applies the trigger label, the platform may enqueue another full task against the same issue — unbounded cost and race conditions.
### Proposed solution
1. Extend task hydration context with `trigger_label` and `allowed_agent_labels` from repo Blueprint / integration mapping.
2. Add Cedar policy module `builtin/trigger_label_governance` or extend deterministic PreToolUse regex guards for MCP `update_issue` / label payloads.
3. Mirror check in Jira/Linear outbound clients if agents call REST directly.
4. Tests: agent policy tests + handler tests for webhook processor dedup (label must be *newly added*, not re-saved — already true for Jira; document same for agent writes).
5. Document operator guidance: restrict who can apply trigger labels on public repos.
### Other information
- Related: `docs/guides/JIRA_SETUP_GUIDE.md`, Linear mapping construct, #389 (platform trigger expansion), #230 (event governance RFC).
- Complements webhook dedup logic in `jira-webhook-processor.ts` / `linear-webhook-processor.ts` (ingress dedup does not stop agent write-back).
- Out of scope: changing default trigger label names (backward compatible).
### Acknowledgements
- [x] I may be able to implement this feature
- [ ] This might be a breaking change

Direzione di ricerca
Inizia con l’applicazione del vincolo issue-write di PreToolUse/Cedar e con i percorsi indicati jira-webhook-processor.ts e linear-webhook-processor.ts. Esamina il file JIRA_SETUP_GUIDE.md correlato, il costrutto di mapping di Linear e i test della policy e dell’handler dell’agente. Il lavoro è completato quando le label di trigger sono bloccate per le write dell’agente, le label consentite restano configurabili, l’assenza di metadati di trigger comporta un rifiuto predefinito e il comportamento di deduplicazione del webhook è coperto.
