How to Handle OMA Test-Gate Failures in Your Workflow

Diagnose OMA enterprise gate failures with the read-only doctor command, follow each probe’s repair direction, and enable strict compilation in CI after remediation.
Special offer. See more information about Outbyte and uninstall instructions. Please review EULA and Privacy policy.

Start with oma doctor --enterprise. It is a read-only diagnostic that reports which enterprise checks are failing and exits with 0 or 1; use the named probe and its remediation guidance to make the fix. Once the repository passes, run oma compile --strict-enterprise and add that command to CI when you are ready for failures to block the build.

Here, OMA means the Oh My AI-DLC Ops project’s enterprise gate—not the Open Mobile Alliance or a separate project that uses an oma eval gate command.

What to run first when an OMA gate fails

  1. Run oma doctor --enterprise from the repository. The OMA Enterprise readiness documentation describes it as safe to repeat, read-only, and an exit-0-or-1 command. Save the output so you can compare probe results after changes.

  2. Find the failing probe names and read the associated remediation guidance. Fix the underlying schema, DSL, artifact, audit record, risk classification, or configuration rather than editing generated fixtures or bypassing the check.

  3. Run the doctor again to confirm the relevant probe clears. A cleared probe is useful evidence, but it does not prove every strict-compile requirement is met.

  4. Run oma compile --strict-enterprise locally. Address any entity-level errors in the records they identify, then use the same command in CI once the repository is ready for enforcement.

The Enterprise readiness documentation recommends phased adoption: first use diagnostics to see what remains, then enable CI enforcement. The Harness Engineering documentation places quality gates and strict enterprise compilation in the Construction/build-test stage; Operations instead emphasizes runtime controls and continuous evaluation. See OMA Enterprise readiness documentation and OMA Harness Engineering.

What each enterprise probe checks and how to fix it

The OMA Enterprise readiness documentation names eight probes. Seven block strict compilation; plugin-dsl is warning-only. Treat the table as a map from probe name to the documented repair direction, not as an exhaustive list of every strict-compile rule.

Probe What it checks Documented repair direction
ontology-2020-12 Ontology and ADR schemas parse under JSON Schema Draft 2020-12. Update the schema; do not hand-edit fixtures.
slsa-digest Object-form deployment artifacts include a SHA-256 digest in the expected format. Rebuild with a signing builder and fill in the artifact digest. The adoption sequence also calls for an artifact provenance_uri.
risk-classification Every Risk has at least one OWASP LLM Top 10 ID or NIST AI RMF subcategory. Use the project mapping to classify each risk.
audit-jsonl Every line in .omao/audit.jsonl validates against the audit event schema. Use the audit append tool instead of adding free-form Markdown.
dsl-version Each *.oma.yaml file uses version: 2. Upgrade the DSL header while preserving the other keys.
policies-enforce Each policies[].enforce.deny_if regular expression compiles. Correct the offending expression in the DSL enforcement block.
plugin-dsl Each plugin directory has a *.oma.yaml; raw plugin.json is still permitted. Run the documented v0.5 migration. This probe warns but does not block strict compilation.
mcp-pinned Each MCP args[] entry includes an exact ==X.Y.Z version pin. Replace floating versions such as @latest or @canary with exact pins.

Strict-compile errors that can remain after probes pass

The probe results are not the entire strict-enterprise contract. The Enterprise readiness documentation says strict compilation also checks individual entities:

When compilation reports one of these errors, use the specific entity error line to locate the record to change. Do not assume a clear probe count means all entity-level requirements have passed.

Choose the right command: diagnosis is not enforcement

Command or mode What it does When to use it
oma doctor --enterprise Reports enterprise probe status, exits 0 or 1, and makes no file changes. First diagnosis and repeated checks during phased adoption.
oma compile --strict-enterprise Applies strict enterprise compile checks; use it to make regressions produce a non-zero result. Run locally after remediation, then in CI when ready to enforce the gate.
oma validate Checks JSON Schema entity shape; it does not evaluate policy. Use for schema-shape validation, not as a substitute for enterprise policy enforcement.

Policy enforcement occurs at other compiled or runtime surfaces, according to the Enterprise readiness documentation. Passing oma validate alone therefore does not establish that enterprise policy checks pass.

How to adopt the gate without disrupting work

  1. Begin with diagnostic runs and track which probes warn or fail.

  2. Repair one indicated category at a time, using the prescribed format or migration path and keeping source-of-truth files intact.

  3. After each repair, rerun the doctor and confirm the relevant probe result changes.

  4. Resolve strict-only entity requirements surfaced by compilation, including approval chains, artifact representation, and DSL version.

    MSA Galaxy GX2 Cylinder Holder Assembly, Automated System Test Stand
    • ANY ALTAIR DEVICE: The new GALAXY GX2 Automated Test System provides simple and intelligent testing and calibration of MSA ALTAIR and ALTAIR PRO Single-Gas Detectors, as well as with ALTAIR 4X and ALTAIR 5X Multi-Gas Detectors, driven by the most advanced technology available in any portable gas detector: MSA XCell Sensors.
    • SIMPLE INSTALLATION: Cylinder assemblies are designed to easily connect to other testing system components or charging stations, and perform well whether they are placed on a bench top or wall mounted.
    • SAFETY & COMPLIANCE: All MSA calibration gas is supplied with individual Certificate of Analysis to NIST-traceable standard and MSDS. Cylinders, testing systems, and detectors also meet all applicable OSHA regulations, include NIOSH certifications and follow relevant safety standards in markets they are designed for.
    • MULTIPLE DEVICE CAPABILITIES: Connect up to 10 test stands and up to 4 cylinder holders to perform simultaneous detector tests and charging, for reliable diagnostics and fast results even with multiple-device fleets
    • THE SAFETY COMPANY: In the spirit of the MSA mission, all components of the respiratory safety and gas detection product lines harness precision engineering to craft the highest-quality safety products and enable work in the safest environments possible
  5. Once the repository passes locally, add oma compile --strict-enterprise to CI so later regressions return a non-zero exit and fail the relevant check.

  6. For high-impact controls, have a separate reviewer examine the fix. The Harness Engineering documentation advocates independent verification rather than relying only on tests written by the agent that produced the code.

Account for the NIST mapping’s stated coverage

The Enterprise readiness documentation says its NIST AI RMF mapping covers approximately 14 of the framework’s 72 subcategories. If your audit scope requires broader coverage, extend your own mapping matrix and attach the additional compliance references; do not treat the project mapping as exhaustive.
