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.
The /omfg generated-rule path validated conditions with raw new RegExp in normalizeConditionRegex and isValidRegexCondition, so a generated rule with a leading (?i)/(?m)/(?s) inline flag was rejected as "Invalid condition regex" before reaching TtsrManager.addRule. Route all three validation sites through compileRuleCondition.
Fixes#4796
The /todo rm reminder was a generic "user manually modified" message
showing an empty list, so the model read the cleared list as missing and
re-populated it on the next turn. buildSystemReminder now emits an explicit
do-not-recreate / do-not-re-add directive for removals while keeping
status mutations (done/drop) neutral.
Fixes#5258
- Normalized completed image_generation_call results into assistant image blocks.
- Persisted image bytes through the session blob store and rendered them in live, replay, ACP, proxy, telemetry, and HTML paths.
- Added response normalization, persistence, and TUI rendering regressions.
Fixes#4768
- Bounded expanded partial edit diff rendering in `formatStreamingDiff` to `previewWindowRows()` instead of an unbounded budget, preventing runaway preview growth during live updates.
- Updated streaming diff tests to simulate terminal height and verify expanded previews stay full only within the viewport, then switch to a truncated tail with the `more lines above` marker when too tall.
- Reinitialized in-memory `Settings` before each initial-messages test since the test suite reads global display configuration and needs isolation.
- Added comprehensive tests for downshifting model behavior, including plan nudge injection and completion safety mechanisms.
- Verified session persistence accuracy by validating that from-disk rebuilds match the live agent state.
- Confirmed correct cache key propagation during tan commands to ensure provider caching is preserved.
- Removed obsolete reasoning slide tests.
- Clear inherited todo list state and persist empty edit at fork creation to prevent parent task reminders from affecting the tangential session.
- Re-inject the fork notice after each auto-compaction event to ensure the boundary between the parent and child session survives history summarization.
- Align the provider cache key with the parent's actual pinned key to correctly mirror cached session context.
- Update `AgentSession` to perform a full entry rewrite during tool result pruning to ensure session files match pruned state for reliable resuming and branching.
- Initialized session metadata including system prompt, task, and toolset within the controller.
- Added session initialization tracking to the clone creation flow to ensure session state visibility.
- Updated unit tests to verify that session initialization data is correctly appended when a tan is created.
- Stop propagating real-time updates for backgrounded Bash jobs to avoid UI flickering once a job enters the background.
- Refine background task tracking in `EventController` to distinguish between persistent background tasks and transient backgrounded Bash commands.
- Update UI rendering to display cleaner background job metadata in the footer instead of inline text notices.
After #5239 compaction, a later render only fills segments from
#compactedChildStart, leaving undefined holes in the prefix. Iterating
those entries crashed when retiring IRC/ephemeral cards
(`segment2.component`). Guard undefined segment slots and cover the
sparse-hole path with a red/green regression.
- pickWeightedTip now takes the tip list and a uniform sample, exported for tests.
- Weighted-selection test sweeps a synthetic tip list, so shipping zero [NEW] tips no longer fails the suite.
- Enabled granular task execution by allowing batches to interleave blocking items with non-blocking async background spawns.
- Updated task orchestration to support simultaneous inline result collection and persistent background job tracking.
- Improved agent visibility in the job tool by reporting running subagents even when not explicitly linked to a backing job ID.
- Enhanced terminal state handling to prevent premature tool block closures while async background operations remain active.
- Replaced the legacy model selector with a full-screen Model Hub, introducing mouse support and a fuzzy-searchable browser.
- Integrated comprehensive model management, including role assignment, thinking-level visualization, and manual provider discovery.
- Implemented a cancellable OAuth login flow and integrated it directly into the Model Hub for provider authentication.
- Centralized model logic and migrated existing tests to support the new component architecture.
- Refined dialog layout with stable height clamping and improved preview visibility logic.
- Simplified interaction flow by replacing the "Next" row with "Submit" tab confirmation.
- Enabled accessible option toggling using Enter and Space keys.
- Removed legacy chat integration and streamlined internal dialog state management.
Switched interactive OAuth login to start model discovery in the background after credentials are saved.
Added a regression test that keeps model refresh pending and asserts the success transcript appears immediately.
Fixes#4989
Magic keyword matching now treats sentence punctuation and quotes as prose boundaries while still rejecting casing changes, inflections, and path/file-extension occurrences.
Added regression coverage for detection and highlighting across ultrathink, orchestrate, and workflowz.
Fixes#4965
- Added auto-sealing logic to `FinalizableBlock` to finalize displaceable snapshots when they enter the scrollback area.
- Updated TUI frame emission to publish committed rows and clamp them to segment bounds, ensuring accurate component updates.
- Introduced component tracking and cleanup in event controller tests to prevent resource leaks during finalization.
- Validated state transitions and post-emit synchronization through comprehensive new test suites for transcript and TUI components.
- container stubs gained disposeChildren for the stale-renderer teardown paths
- login-stored API key assertions include the new source provenance field
- bash timeout test covers the zero-disable contract alongside the clamp
- skill keyword steering activates a task tool for the gated workflow notice
