- Updated schema and runtime paths to use `dev.autoqaConsent` and `todo.remindersMax`, including auto-QA consent reads/persistence and todo reminder limit checks.
- Adjusted settings expectations so obsolete BM25-discovery keys were dropped on load and `tools.xdev` now kept its default unless explicitly set.
- Added/updated tests for the setting key migration and refreshed issue-consent flows, plus a new `refreshMCPTools` test for steered `xdev-mount-notice` updates without prompt rebuilds.
Instead of including the xd:// device inventory in the system-prompt signature, mount/unmount events now inject a steered `xdev-mount-notice` message so the system prompt (and its provider cache prefix) stays byte-stable across MCP connects and disconnects. Full device docs are picked up opportunistically on the next unrelated rebuild.
Also caps external (dynamic-mount) device descriptions to 200 chars in `docsAll` to prevent server-controlled prose from consuming prompt budget; built-ins keep their full curated docs, and `read xd://` always returns the untruncated text.
Legacy `discoveryMode: "off"` → `tools.xdev: false` migration is removed; the setting keeps its own default without inference from the deprecated key.
- Added the `xd://` virtual device protocol (`internal-urls/xd-protocol.ts`, `tools/xdev.ts`): tools declaring `loadMode: "discoverable"` are unmounted from the request tools array and driven via `read xd://` (list/docs+schema) and `write xd://<tool>` (execute), gated by the `tools.xdev` setting (default on) and inlined into the system prompt.
- Merged the `irc`, `job`, and `launch` tools into a single `hub` tool (`tools/hub/`, `async/job-manager.ts`): messaging keeps `send`/`inbox`/`list`, job control maps to `wait`/`cancel`/`jobs`, process supervision keeps `start`/`logs`/`stop`/`restart`/`describe` with `ps`, and the unified `wait` races background jobs against peer messages; SDK `IrcTool`/`JobTool`/`LaunchTool` are replaced by `HubTool`.
- Removed the hidden `resolve` tool in favor of the `xd://resolve`/`xd://reject`/`xd://propose` resolution devices, auto-including `write` whenever a deferrable tool or plan mode is present.
- Removed the BM25 tool-discovery system: the `search_tool_bm25` tool, the `tool-discovery` module, the `tools.discoveryMode`/`mcp.discoveryMode`/`mcp.discoveryDefaultServers`/`tools.essentialOverride` settings, per-tool MCP selection, and the `mcp_tool_selection` message type.
- Unified tool presentation on `ToolLoadMode` (`essential`|`discoverable`), replacing the custom-tool `xdev?: boolean` opt-out; custom, extension, MCP, RPC host, image-generation, and TTS tools now default to `discoverable`, and added a `satisfies` predicate to `SoftToolRequirement`.
- Removed the standalone `ssh` command tool and `ssh/ssh-executor` (the `ssh://` read/write/search protocol stays), and made `--tools` address hidden built-ins.
- Updated collab-web to render `xd://` dispatches and `hub` op families, dropped the `search_tool_bm25`/`ssh`/`report-finding` renderers, refreshed tool docs and prompts, and migrated the affected tests and changelogs.
- Renamed the system prompt's project-context section wrapper from `<context>` to `<repo-rules>` in `project-prompt.md`, so it no longer collides with the `task` tool's `context` parameter under in-band XML tool dialects.
- Updated `snapcompact-inline`'s context-section strip pattern to match `<repo-rules>`.
- Updated the `snapcompact-inline` test fixture to the new wrapper.
- Changelog entry for this rename rides with the fused device-migration commit (adjacent changelog lines).
- Added the `enforceSeenLines` option to hashline `PatcherOptions` (defaults `true`); the seen-line guard in `Patcher` now runs only when enabled.
- Added the `edit.enforceSeenLines` coding-agent setting (default off) and wired it through `edit/hashline/execute.ts` into the `Patcher`.
- Stopped `file-snapshot-store` excluding column-clipped (>512-char) lines from a snapshot's seen set, so single-line edits on long lines apply without a full-width re-read.
- Updated `seen-line-guard` tests and the hashline/coding-agent changelogs.
The re-entry system prompt led with "Read the existing plan" and its
"different task -> overwrite it" step contradicted the planExists guidance
("leave that plan in place and start a fresh file"). Weak models fixated on
reconciling the incomplete old plan and dropped the new request entirely.
- Rewrote the Re-entry procedure in plan-mode-active.md to treat the new
request as the primary input and the old plan as reference only, and to
fold corrections for unfinished old work INTO the new plan rather than
substituting them for the new request.
- Aligned the "different task" branch with the planExists section (fresh
file, no overwrite), removing the contradiction.
- Added reentry-prompt.test.ts asserting the anchoring contract and the
absence of the contradiction.
Fixes#5576
- Added `interruptMode: never` to all updated Go, Rust, and TypeScript built-in discovery rule files.
- Changed `ts-no-inline-cast-access.md` from `interruptMode: tool-only` to `interruptMode: never`.
- Added a `plan-mode-active.md` directive barring changelog/release notes, doc updates, formatter/linter runs, and scaffolding removal as plan steps, so plan mode stops enumerating the mechanical cleanup tail that runs automatically after the change works.
- Clarified that behavior-defining tests and the end-to-end proof stay in the **Verification** section rather than being dropped as cleanup.
- Restored the compact two-row `Editor` layout by default and gated the dedicated IME-safe bottom border behind `setImeSafeCursorLayout()`.
- Added `tui.imeSafeCursor` as an opt-in appearance setting and applied it to initial and replacement editors.
- Added regression coverage for compact default rendering while retaining terminal-local IME preedit protection.
- Updated the TUI changelog for the opt-in compatibility layout.
Generated per-module loaders instead of eagerly evaluating the entire bundled compatibility graph during extension bootstrap.
This prevents appserver startup from cycling through its own retained command modules before the Unix socket is created.
Fixes#5568
- Parsed nested marked text tokens through the inline parser.
- Added browser-template regression coverage for ordered, unordered, and nested lists.
Fixes#5567
- Rewrote logical /dev/fd operands to live OS descriptors before invoking in-process uutils.
- Added regression coverage for diff reading two process substitutions.
Fixes#5557
