📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds a new parallel, dependency-aware batch installation system (cortex/batch_installer.py), integrates multi-package batch install into the CLI (cortex/cli.py), strengthens DB writability checks for installation/cache directories, and adds comprehensive tests (tests/test_batch_installer.py).

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary of changes & attention points
Batch installer module
cortex/batch_installer.py
New module: PackageStatus, PackageInstallation, BatchInstallationResult, BatchInstaller. Implements parallel dependency analysis, dependency-graph optimization (shared deps), topological ordering, parallel execution with progress callbacks, error handling, and rollback. Review concurrency, imports for DependencyGraph/InstallationResult, topological sort correctness, shared-deps coordination, and rollback command correctness.
CLI integration
cortex/cli.py
Adds multi-package install routing and _install_batch(self, package_names: list[str], execute: bool=False, dry_run: bool=False) -> int; imports BatchInstaller, PackageStatus; updates argument parsing and help text. Review argument parsing, progress rendering, exit-code semantics for partial failures, and history interactions.
Tests
tests/test_batch_installer.py
New tests exercising dataclasses, analyze/topological/optimize logic, dry-run vs execute, rollback enabled/disabled, and shared-dependency scenarios. Ensure mocks match resolver/coordinator/subprocess interfaces and consider edge cases (timeouts, partial failures).
Installation & cache writability
cortex/installation_history.py, cortex/semantic_cache.py
_ensure_db_directory now verifies writability by creating/deleting a test file and falls back to a user-specific directory (~/.cortex or ~/.cortex/history.db) on failure (with warning). Review permission handling and side effects on user paths.

🧹 Nitpick comments (4)
tests/test_batch_installer.py (2)

11-11: Consider removing sys.path manipulation.

The sys.path.insert(0, ...) pattern is fragile and can cause import resolution issues. Use proper package installation (e.g., pip install -e .) or configure test discovery to handle the project structure instead.

🔎 Recommended approach

Remove the sys.path manipulation and ensure tests are run from the project root with proper package structure:

-sys.path.insert(0, os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), ".."))
-
 from cortex.batch_installer import (

Then run tests using:

python -m pytest tests/
# or
python -m unittest discover

50-74: Verify status for all analyzed packages.

The test only checks packages["nginx"].status but should verify both "nginx" and "docker" were analyzed correctly. Additionally, consider using side_effect to return different graphs for different packages to better simulate real behavior.

🔎 Enhanced test coverage
 self.assertEqual(len(packages), 2)
 self.assertIn("nginx", packages)
 self.assertIn("docker", packages)
 self.assertEqual(packages["nginx"].status, PackageStatus.RESOLVING)
+self.assertEqual(packages["docker"].status, PackageStatus.RESOLVING)
cortex/batch_installer.py (2)

186-195: Consider batch installation resilience for shared dependencies.

The current approach installs all shared dependencies in a single command. If this command fails, all packages depending on those shared deps will also fail. Consider breaking shared dependencies into smaller groups or adding retry logic to improve resilience for partial failures.


224-254: Topological sort may not handle complex dependency chains.

The current implementation assumes all dependencies can be installed before all packages and doesn't consider ordering among dependencies themselves. If dependency A requires dependency B, this simple algorithm won't detect that ordering requirement. However, since DependencyResolver.installation_order already provides proper ordering per package, this may be acceptable for the current use case.

Consider whether the _topological_sort method is actually needed, or if the existing installation_order from DependencyGraph should be used directly instead.

tests/test_batch_installer.py (5)

22-41: LGTM!

The tests for PackageInstallation dataclass comprehensively cover initialization and duration computation with proper edge case handling (None timestamps).


75-147: LGTM!

Topological sort test properly verifies ordering constraints, and the dependency graph optimization test correctly validates shared dependency detection and command generation.


148-206: LGTM!

Tests effectively cover both dry-run and execute modes, verifying the expected status transitions and result structures.


228-283: LGTM!

Tests properly cover rollback functionality in both enabled and disabled states, verifying the expected behavior and subprocess invocation.


285-348: LGTM!

Excellent integration test that properly validates multi-package scenarios with shared dependency detection and optimization. The use of side_effect for different package responses is particularly well done.

cortex/cli.py (5)

751-752: LGTM!

Argument parsing correctly updated to support multiple packages with nargs="+", and the help text clearly indicates multi-package support. The string joining logic appropriately maintains compatibility with the existing install() method signature.

Also applies to: 817-819


694-697: LGTM!

Help text updates accurately reflect the new multi-package installation capability and notification management features.


329-442: Missing sudo confirmation before execution.

The batch installation path executes sudo commands without explicit user confirmation, violating the coding guideline "No silent sudo execution - require explicit user confirmation." Consider adding a confirmation prompt before executing commands that require sudo privileges, similar to prompting before destructive operations.

Based on learnings, no silent sudo execution - require explicit user confirmation.

🔎 Suggested implementation

Before executing batch installation, add a confirmation step:

def _install_batch(
    self, package_names: list[str], execute: bool = False, dry_run: bool = False
) -> int:
    """..."""
    self._print_status("🧠", f"Analyzing {len(package_names)} packages...")
    
    # ... analysis logic ...
    
    # If executing, prompt for confirmation
    if execute and not dry_run:
        print("\n⚠️  The following commands will be executed with sudo privileges:")
        # Show sample commands
        confirmation = input("Continue? (y/n): ")
        if confirmation.lower() != 'y':
            print("Operation cancelled")
            return 0
    
    # ... rest of execution ...

Learning: Applies to **/*install*.py : Dry-run by default for all installations in command execution

405-432: Audit logging is fully implemented and comprehensive. The code collects all commands from each package in the batch and records them along with package names, operation type, status, and before/after snapshots to ~/.cortex/history.db. Each individual package's operations are captured and traceable within the single installation record.


184-193: Default install behavior should use dry-run mode.

According to the coding guideline, installations should default to dry-run mode. Currently, the install() method (lines 184-193) and _install_batch() method default to execute=False, dry_run=False, resulting in a neutral state where commands are shown but neither executed nor marked as dry-run. To comply with the guideline, change the default to dry_run=True so installations perform a dry-run by default, requiring explicit --execute flag to actually run commands.

cortex/batch_installer.py (4)

1-24: LGTM!

Module header and imports are well-organized with a clear docstring describing the module's purpose and key features.


26-77: LGTM!

Data structures are well-designed with proper type hints and comprehensive fields. The success_rate property correctly handles the zero-division edge case.


256-345: LGTM!

The install_batch method provides clear orchestration of the batch installation workflow with proper separation between analysis, optimization, and execution phases. Statistics calculation and result aggregation are implemented correctly.


101-138: Add return type hint to public method.

The analyze_packages method is missing a return type hint in its signature. Per coding guidelines, type hints are required for Python code.

🔎 Add type hint

The docstring already specifies the return type, but it should also be in the signature:

-def analyze_packages(self, package_names: list[str]) -> dict[str, PackageInstallation]:
+    def analyze_packages(self, package_names: list[str]) -> dict[str, PackageInstallation]:

Note: This type hint appears to already be present in the code. If so, disregard this comment.

32-36: Remove duplicate code blocks.

Lines 32-34 duplicate the logging suppression already done at lines 12-13, and line 36 duplicates the sys.path.insert from line 15. This appears to be a merge artifact.

304-336: Critical: Broken code structure - method definition inserted mid-body of ask() method.

The new install method definition (lines 304-313) appears to be inserted in the middle of the ask() method body. Lines 315-336 contain AskHandler logic that belongs to ask() but now follows an unrelated install method stub. This creates either a syntax error or completely broken runtime behavior.

Additionally, there's already a complete install method at lines 338-586. Python's second definition would override the first, making lines 304-313 dead code anyway.

The intended logic (batch detection for multiple packages) should be integrated into the existing install method at line 338, not inserted as a separate broken fragment.

🔎 Proposed fix - merge batch logic into existing install method

Remove lines 304-313 entirely, and add the batch detection logic at the start of the existing install method (line 338):

     def install(
         self,
         software: str,
         execute: bool = False,
         dry_run: bool = False,
         parallel: bool = False,
     ):
+        # Check if multiple packages are provided (space-separated)
+        package_names = [pkg.strip() for pkg in software.split() if pkg.strip()]
+        
+        # If multiple packages, use batch installer
+        if len(package_names) > 1:
+            return self._install_batch(package_names, execute=execute, dry_run=dry_run)
+        
         # Validate input first
         is_valid, error = validate_install_request(software)

1479-1488: Critical: Duplicate return statements and missing --parallel flag handling.

Two issues here:

  1. Unreachable code: Line 1482 returns, making lines 1483-1488 dead code that can never execute.

  2. Missing parallel flag: The new code path at line 1482 doesn't pass parallel=args.parallel, so the --parallel CLI flag is silently ignored.

🔎 Proposed fix
         elif args.command == "install":
             # Join multiple package names into a single string
             software = " ".join(args.software) if isinstance(args.software, list) else args.software
-            return cli.install(software, execute=args.execute, dry_run=args.dry_run)
-            return cli.install(
-                args.software,
-                execute=args.execute,

🧹 Nitpick comments (2)
cortex/cli.py (2)

588-700: Batch installation implementation looks solid with proper error handling and history recording.

The implementation includes:

  • Proper type hints and docstring per coding guidelines
  • Progress callback for real-time status updates
  • Installation history recording (satisfies audit logging requirements per learnings)
  • Graceful handling of history recording failures (lines 689-691)

A few minor observations:

  1. Line 623: max_workers=4 is hardcoded. Consider making this configurable via CLI flag or environment variable for users with different hardware capabilities.

  2. Line 679: Float equality comparison (success_rate == 100.0) can be fragile due to floating-point precision. Consider using >= 100.0 or checking if len(result.failed) == 0 instead.

🔎 Optional: Safer success check
-                    if result.success_rate == 100.0 or (dry_run and len(result.skipped) == len(package_names)):
+                    if len(result.failed) == 0 or (dry_run and len(result.skipped) == len(package_names)):

24-28: Minor: Misplaced comment.

The comment "Import the new Notification Manager" at line 26 is positioned after the BatchInstaller import but before NetworkConfig. Either remove the stale comment or move it closer to line 28 where NotificationManager is actually imported.

529-561: Fix structural error: install method incorrectly nested in ask method.

The install method definition starting at line 529 is incorrectly placed within the ask method body (lines 520-561). This appears to be a merge conflict artifact. Additionally, there's a duplicate install method definition at line 562.

The batch detection logic (lines 530-539) should be integrated into the single install method starting at line 562, and the malformed definition at line 529 should be removed.

🔎 Proposed fix

Remove lines 529-539 entirely, and integrate the batch detection logic at the beginning of the install method at line 562:

-    def install(self, software: str, execute: bool = False, dry_run: bool = False):
-        # Check if multiple packages are provided (space-separated)

810-923: Well-implemented batch installation method with proper error handling.

The _install_batch method is well-structured with:

  • Proper type hints and comprehensive docstring
  • Progress tracking via callbacks with status icons
  • Installation history recording with graceful degradation (try/except for optional history)
  • Clear result reporting with per-package status and time saved metrics

Based on learnings, audit logging to ~/.cortex/history.db is correctly implemented for batch operations at lines 886-914.


1772-1773: LGTM: Install parser correctly configured for multiple packages.

The use of nargs="+" properly enables accepting multiple package arguments, and the help text accurately describes this functionality.

2022-2031: Critical: Unreachable code and missing parallel flag.

Lines 2026-2031 are unreachable because line 2025 returns. Additionally, the reachable block (lines 2023-2025) doesn't pass the parallel flag to cli.install().

259-264: Coding guidelines: dry_run should default to True and audit logging is missing.

Two guideline violations:

  1. Dry-run default: Per guidelines, dry_run should default to True for all installations.

  2. Audit logging: Guidelines require logging all package operations to ~/.cortex/history.db. This method performs installations but doesn't write to the audit log.

🔎 Proposed fix for dry_run default
     def install_batch(
         self,
         package_names: list[str],
         execute: bool = False,
-        dry_run: bool = False,
+        dry_run: bool = True,
     ) -> BatchInstallationResult:

For audit logging, consider adding a method to write to ~/.cortex/history.db using sqlite3, recording timestamp, packages, action, and result.

Based on learnings, dry-run by default and audit logging to ~/.cortex/history.db are required.

385-391: Inefficient: Failed shared deps are re-executed for each package.

When shared dependencies fail to install (line 387 check), they are re-added to each individual package's command list. This causes redundant installation attempts that will likely fail repeatedly.

Consider propagating the shared deps failure to dependent packages (mark them as failed/skipped) instead of re-attempting the same failed commands.

🔎 Proposed fix
     def install_package(package_name: str) -> tuple[str, bool, str | None]:
         """Install a single package and return (name, success, error)"""
         pkg = packages[package_name]

+        if "_shared_deps" in optimized_commands and not shared_deps_installed:

43-282: Good test coverage with one suggestion.

The TestBatchInstaller class provides solid coverage of the batch installer functionality. Tests properly mock dependencies and verify expected behavior.

Consider adding an assertion in test_install_batch_execute to verify that InstallationCoordinator.execute() was actually called:

# After line 205

26-79: LGTM!

The data models are well-structured with appropriate type hints and docstrings. The PackageStatus enum covers all necessary states, and the dataclasses properly encapsulate installation data.


104-141: LGTM with note on parallel dependency resolution.

The analyze_packages method correctly uses ThreadPoolExecutor for parallel dependency resolution with proper exception handling per package. The implementation gracefully handles failures without blocking other packages.

tests/test_batch_installer.py (2)

22-40: LGTM!

Clean tests for PackageInstallation dataclass covering default values and duration calculation.


285-344: Good integration test for shared dependency optimization.

This test validates the key feature of detecting and consolidating shared dependencies (libc6 shared by both nginx and docker). The mock setup correctly simulates realistic dependency graphs.

2036-2044: Critical: Unreachable code - merge conflict artifact.

Line 2038 returns, making lines 2039-2044 unreachable dead code. This appears to be a merge conflict where two versions of the install invocation were incorrectly merged. The first version (line 2038) lacks the parallel parameter that is defined in the argument parser (line 1796) and present in the second version (lines 2039-2044).

This breaks the --parallel flag functionality for users.

🔎 Proposed fix

Remove the first return statement and keep only the complete version:

         elif args.command == "install":
             # Join multiple package names into a single string
             software = " ".join(args.software) if isinstance(args.software, list) else args.software
-            return cli.install(software, execute=args.execute, dry_run=args.dry_run)
             return cli.install(
-                args.software,
+                software,
                 execute=args.execute,
                 dry_run=args.dry_run,

31-31: LGTM!

The import statement correctly brings in the new BatchInstaller and PackageStatus from the batch installer module, which are used in the _install_batch method.


823-937: Audit logging implementation looks good.

The _install_batch method correctly implements audit logging to ~/.cortex/history.db via InstallationHistory (lines 897-928), recording both the start and completion status of batch installations, consistent with the requirement from learnings.

Based on learnings, audit logging is required for all package operations.


1787-1792: LGTM!

The install command parser correctly supports multiple packages using nargs="+", and the help text accurately describes the multi-package capability.

2024-2033: Critical: Fix install() call to include parallel argument and remove dead code.

Lines 2025-2027 introduce a new code path that joins multiple packages but doesn't pass the parallel argument to install(), causing CI pipeline failures. Lines 2028-2033 contain unreachable dead code that should be removed.

812-814: Coding guideline violation: dry_run should default to True.

Per coding guidelines for **/*install*.py, installations must be dry-run by default. The current signature has dry_run: bool = False.

Based on learnings, dry-run by default is required for all installations in command execution.


853-856: Coding guideline violation: Add explicit sudo confirmation before batch execution.

The batch installer executes sudo apt-get install -y commands without prompting the user. Per coding guidelines, silent sudo execution is prohibited—require explicit user confirmation before any privileged operations.

Based on learnings, no silent sudo execution is allowed - require explicit user confirmation.


1687-1688: Remove duplicate help text for install command.

Line 1688 is a duplicate of line 1687. Keep only the updated version (line 1687) that mentions multi-package support.

190-221: Coding guideline violation: Commands use silent sudo without confirmation.

The generated commands use sudo apt-get install -y which bypasses confirmation (lines 198, 214, 221). Per coding guidelines, silent sudo execution is prohibited—require explicit user confirmation.

Based on learnings, no silent sudo execution is allowed - require explicit user confirmation.


260-265: Coding guideline violation: dry_run should default to True.

Per coding guidelines for **/*install*.py, installations must be dry-run by default. The current signature has dry_run: bool = False on line 264.

Based on learnings, dry-run by default is required for all installations in command execution.


349-428: Critical: dry_run parameter not propagated and redundant shared dependency execution.

Two critical issues:

  1. dry_run ignored: The _execute_installations method never receives or uses the dry_run parameter. Even when install_batch is called with dry_run=True, this method executes commands anyway (lines 300-311 in install_batch show that execution is skipped when dry_run=True, but this method itself doesn't support dry-run simulation).

  2. Redundant shared dependency execution: Lines 388-390 re-include shared dependency commands for each package when shared_deps_installed is False. If shared deps failed initially, they will be redundantly retried for every package, causing inefficiency and confusing error messages.

🔎 Recommended approach
  1. Add dry_run: bool parameter to _execute_installations and install_package
  2. When dry_run=True, skip coordinator execution and mark packages as SKIPPED
  3. Track shared dependency failure and propagate it to dependent packages without re-executing commands

260-347: Critical: Missing audit logging implementation.

The install_batch method doesn't implement audit logging to ~/.cortex/history.db as required by coding guidelines for **/*install*.py files. While cli.py attempts to log batch installations, the core installer should maintain its own audit trail.

Based on learnings, implement audit logging to ~/.cortex/history.db for all package operations.


482-488: Critical security issue: shell=True in subprocess.run.

Using shell=True in subprocess.run on line 487 creates a shell injection vulnerability. Even with internally generated commands, this is a security risk and violates best practices.

🔎 Secure implementation

886-918: Enhance audit logging reliability.

While audit logging is attempted via InstallationHistory, errors are silently caught and only logged at debug level (line 917). Per coding guidelines, audit logging to ~/.cortex/history.db is required for all package operations. Consider:

  • Logging failures at warning level with clear messages
  • Attempting to create the history database if missing
  • Providing user feedback when history recording fails

Based on learnings, audit logging to ~/.cortex/history.db is required for all package operations.

22-347: Enhance test coverage with edge cases.

The test suite covers happy paths well but is missing tests for several important edge cases that would help meet the >80% coverage guideline:

  1. Empty package list — Test analyze_packages([]) and install_batch([])
  2. All packages already installed — Mock is_package_installed to return True for all packages
  3. Dependency resolution exceptions — Test when DependencyResolver.resolve_dependencies raises an exception
  4. Progress callback verification — Assert that progress_callback is invoked with correct arguments
  5. Partial failure scenarios — Test mixed success/failure results in install_batch

Based on learnings, maintain >80% test coverage for pull requests.

192-228: Critical: Silent sudo execution is prohibited - remove -y flag or require explicit confirmation.

Per coding guidelines for **/*install*.py files, silent sudo execution is prohibited. Lines 196, 200, 216, and 223 generate commands with sudo apt-get install -y, where the -y flag bypasses user confirmation.

Required changes:

  • Remove the -y flag from all apt-get install commands, OR
  • Add an explicit confirmation mechanism (parameter/prompt) before executing privileged commands

Recommended approach: Remove -y flag to allow apt-get to prompt users naturally, or add a confirm_sudo: bool parameter that must be explicitly set to True to include -y.

Based on learnings, no silent sudo execution is allowed - require explicit user confirmation.

🧹 Nitpick comments (2)
cortex/semantic_cache.py (1)

79-98: Consider adding a warning log when falling back to user directory.

The writability check and fallback logic are sound. However, unlike installation_history.py (line 101), this implementation doesn't log a warning when falling back to the user directory. Consider adding logger.warning(f"Using user directory for cache: {self.db_path}") in the except block for consistency and better observability.

🔎 Proposed enhancement

382-434: Inefficient: Failed shared dependencies are re-executed for each package.

When shared dependencies fail to install (line 378), shared_deps_installed remains False. This causes lines 390-392 to re-include the failed shared dependency commands in every individual package installation, leading to redundant failure attempts.

Recommended approach:

  • If shared deps fail, propagate that failure to all dependent packages immediately
  • Mark dependent packages as SKIPPED or FAILED with a clear error message
  • Avoid re-executing known-failed commands

This would improve efficiency and provide clearer error reporting.

In @cortex/batch_installer.py:
- Around line 230-260: The _topological_sort method is dead code—either remove
it or wire it into the existing dependency optimization flow: find
_topological_sort and either delete the method and its tests, or modify
optimize_dependency_graph to call _topological_sort(package_dependencies,
all_dependencies) in place of its ad-hoc ordering logic, adjust any downstream
assumptions about ordering, and update unit tests and docstrings to reflect the
change.

192-227: Silent sudo with -y flag violates coding guidelines.

Commands use sudo apt-get install -y which bypasses user confirmation. Per coding guidelines for **/*install*.py files, silent sudo execution is prohibited.


262-267: Dry-run must default to True per coding guidelines.

The dry_run: bool = False parameter violates the requirement that dry-run mode be the default for all installations in **/*install*.py files.


262-349: Missing audit logging to ~/.cortex/history.db.

Per coding guidelines, all package operations in **/*install*.py files must implement audit logging to ~/.cortex/history.db. No audit trail is written for batch operations. Based on learnings, this is a required feature.


388-394: Redundant shared dependency execution on failure.

When shared dependencies fail to install, they're re-included in each package's command list (lines 390-392), causing redundant installation attempts. Consider tracking the failure and propagating it to dependent packages instead.


487-496: Security issue: shell=True in subprocess.run and unchecked result.

Using shell=True creates a shell injection vulnerability. Additionally, the subprocess result is not checked, so rollback failures are silently ignored beyond the exception handler.

🧹 Nitpick comments (3)
cortex/batch_installer.py (3)

87-105: Consider validating max_workers parameter.

If max_workers is passed as 0 or negative, ThreadPoolExecutor may raise an exception. Consider adding a guard.

🔎 Proposed fix
     def __init__(
         self,
         max_workers: int = 4,
         progress_callback: Callable[[int, int, PackageInstallation], None] | None = None,
         enable_rollback: bool = True,
     ):
+        if max_workers < 1:
+            raise ValueError("max_workers must be at least 1")
         self.max_workers = max_workers

401-416: Installation lock serializes all apt-get operations, limiting parallelism.

The _install_lock at line 404 ensures only one apt-get process runs at a time. While this prevents apt lock conflicts, it effectively serializes installations, negating much of the parallel execution benefit. The parallelism is limited to dependency analysis and UI updates.

Consider documenting this design decision or exploring alternative approaches (e.g., apt lock detection with retry, or queuing installations).


491-493: Move import subprocess to the module level.

Importing inside the loop is inefficient and unconventional. Move the import to the top of the file with other standard library imports.

🔎 Proposed fix

Add to imports at the top of the file:

import subprocess

Then remove line 491 and update the rollback loop:

                 try:
                     for cmd in reversed(pkg.rollback_commands):
                         logger.info(f"Rolling back {pkg.name}: {cmd}")
-                        # Execute rollback command
-                        import subprocess
-
-                        subprocess.run(cmd, shell=True, capture_output=True, timeout=60)
+                        import shlex
+                        result = subprocess.run(
+                            shlex.split(cmd),
+                            shell=False,
+                            capture_output=True,
+                            timeout=60,
+                        )
+                        if result.returncode != 0:
+                            logger.warning(f"Rollback command failed: {cmd}")
                     success_count += 1

1-25: LGTM - Module structure and imports are well-organized.

The imports are properly sorted, the module docstring clearly describes the purpose, and logging is correctly configured.


28-38: LGTM - PackageStatus enum provides clear lifecycle states.

The enum covers all necessary installation phases and follows Python conventions.


41-59: LGTM - PackageInstallation dataclass is well-designed.

Good use of type hints, default factories for mutable defaults, and the duration() helper method.


62-81: LGTM - BatchInstallationResult dataclass with proper edge-case handling.

The success_rate property correctly handles the empty packages case to avoid division by zero.


107-144: LGTM - Parallel dependency analysis with proper error handling.

Good use of ThreadPoolExecutor for parallel resolution, and exceptions are properly caught and logged with status updates.

2638-2647: Remove dead code and clarify parallel flag handling.

Lines 2642-2647 are unreachable dead code that should be removed. Additionally, the parallel flag from args is not passed to cli.install() in the new routing (line 2641), while the old code (line 2646) did pass it. If batch installations have their own parallelization strategy via max_workers, consider documenting this behavior or logging a warning when --parallel is used with multiple packages.

10-38: LGTM!

The new imports for BatchInstaller and PackageStatus are correctly added, and the logger initialization is appropriate for the batch installation feature.


642-651: LGTM!

The multi-package detection logic correctly splits space-separated package names and routes to the batch installer when multiple packages are detected. The filtering of empty strings is handled properly.


967-999: Audit logging implementation confirmed.

The installation history recording correctly implements the learning requirement for audit logging to ~/.cortex/history.db for all package operations. The try-except wrapper ensures history recording failures don't break the installation flow, which is appropriate defensive coding.

Based on learnings, audit logging is required for all package operations.


2265-2270: LGTM!

The argument parser correctly uses nargs="+" to accept multiple package names, and the help text accurately describes the functionality.


893-1008: Well-implemented batch installation with proper error handling.

The _install_batch method correctly integrates with BatchInstaller for parallel package installation. The progress tracking, results reporting, and installation history recording are all properly implemented. The defensive coding around history recording (wrapping in try-except) ensures failures don't break the installation flow.

Based on learnings, the audit logging requirement is properly satisfied.
