- Introduce task.enableEffort setting defaulting to false to hide per-spawn effort parameters.
- Conditionally include effort in single and batch task schemas and descriptions based on the new setting.
- Removes `model` field from task item/schema, TaskParams, and TaskItem types.
- Removes model selector validation, formatting, and approval display logic.
- Updates task tool priority docs to reflect that model is no longer per-call overridable.
- Updates eval agent() helper docs and prompt templates to remove model parameter.
- Updates tests to reflect removal of model override capability.
The flat single-spawn task wire schema carries arktype `"+": "delete"`, so a
batch `{ context, tasks[] }` payload sent while `task.batch` is disabled has
those keys stripped and is then rejected as `task must be a string (was
missing)` in the agent loop. That preempts the tool's own actionable checks
(validateShapeParams / validateSpawnParams), so the model only ever saw the
misleading arktype error instead of "task.batch is disabled…".
Mark TaskTool with lenientArgValidation so the agent loop forwards the raw
args to execute() on any arktype failure, letting the tool's shape checks
surface the real reason. Valid calls still normalize through arktype; the
success path is unchanged. Mirrors the existing yield-tool pattern.
Fixes#6039
Add an optional `apply` parameter to the `task` tool so
`isolated: true, apply: false` captures patch/branch artifacts without
applying changes to the parent checkout. Available as a flat top-level
control and per `tasks[]` item. Shares the task/eval isolation-to-executor
translation via a single `toStructuredSubagentIsolationControls` adapter.
- Added per-invocation task schemas with strict and permissive validation.
- Shared task and eval agent policy, artifacts, isolation, and lifecycle handling.
- Enabled host-restricted plan-mode eval agents and persisted their capability clamp.
Fixes#5279
- Renamed task wire fields, replacing `assignment` and `description` with `task` and `name` while removing `role` references.
- Implemented automated task UI label generation using a tiny model to replace manual role descriptions.
- Updated task execution and rendering logic to support per-item agent resolution and dynamic badge display.
- Migrated schemas, prompts, and test suites to enforce the new flat task structure and agent-centric policy.
When a batched task spawn is cancelled while still queued behind task.maxConcurrency the semaphore now rejects acquire(), but the previous patch let the abort throw past the aborted handler so progress.status and onSettled never fired and buildAsyncDetails kept reporting the batch as running. The wrapper now records whether the slot was held, funnels both acquire-time and post-acquire aborts through the same aborted branch (releasing only when held), and a batch regression test pins the contract.
Fixes#3930
- Fixed `SYSTEM.md` integration to correctly include custom-rendered sections like rules and skills.
- Consolidated system prompt validation by requiring `<skills>` tag presence instead of specific prose.
- Removed redundant system prompt math-formatting tests and orphaned task batch documentation tests.
- Forwarded `parentAgentId` through task and eval launch paths when spawning subagents.
- Mapped `parentAgentId` to `parentId` in `createAgentSession`.
- Passed each caller's session `getAgentId` (or `MAIN_AGENT_ID`) as the parent for spawned agents.
- Updated TaskTool to skip `session.asyncJobManager` and run `task` spawns inline whenever `async.enabled` is false.
- Set `async.enabled` default to `true` and updated task prompts/settings text to reflect async-versus-sync behavior.
- Adjusted task batching tests to cover both async background execution and synchronous batched execution when async is disabled.
- Replaced task-simple-mode with a `task.batch` setting enabled by default.
- Updated task schema to use batch `{agent, context, tasks[]}` payloads.
- Migrated task execution to spawn one async job per task and merge outputs.
- Removed per-call schema passing while preserving legacy flat task calls.
