- Added detached spawn metadata to lifecycle, progress, and executor session payloads so task and evaluator runs can mark background jobs.
- Updated subagent session tracking and HUD rendering to only show active detached spawns.
- Extended HUD tests to verify non-detached sync and eval spawns are excluded while detached flags propagate through events.
- 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.
- Removed `resume` from task params and schema, requiring agent and assignment inputs.
- Dropped resume continuation paths in task execution and call rendering, always spawning a new agent.
- Removed the `irc.enabled` setting and computed IRC availability by task-depth rules.
- Updated task follow-up guidance to use IRC messaging/history links instead of `task(resume:)`.
The task tool now takes a single { agent, assignment, description, ... } and always runs the subagent in the background — the batch tasks[] array and shared context parameter are gone. Fan-out is parallel task calls; shared background flows through a '/Users/can/.omp/agent/sessions/-Projects-.tree-pi-commit/2026-06-10T15-36-32-782Z_019eb22d-970e-7000-8964-72c98becf3e8/local' file referenced in each assignment.\n\nIntroduces a persistent subagent lifecycle: finished subagents stay live as idle, the lifecycle manager parks them to disk after task.agentIdleTtlMs (default 7 minutes; 0 keeps them live until exit), and they revive automatically when prompted from the Agent Hub, messaged on IRC, or resumed via task. New task(resume: "<id>") revives an idle or parked subagent and runs a follow-up assignment in its existing session.\n\nAdds soft request budgets (explore/quick_task 40, others 90, configurable via task.softRequestBudget, 0 disables): crossing the budget injects a one-time wrap-up steer into the child; crossing 1.5× aborts the run gracefully. Cancelled/aborted subagent salvage replaces the old (no output) with the child's last activity snippet plus request/token stats; SingleResult tracks a per-child requests counter (assistant message_end events) used to sort agent lists in runtime-ascending order in both the live progress view (finished agents above pending/running) and the finalized result view, so rows no longer reshuffle on finalize. Adds a task gallery fixture variant for the resume path (renderer key separated from fixture key).\n\nAll task tests are reshaped around the single-call contract; tests for the discarded shared-context flow are removed, and new task-guards/task-resume/task-schema tests pin the new contract surface.
Same shape of bug the reviewer flagged for custom tools: forwarding
`LoadExtensionsResult` from parent to subagent reused Extension instances
whose factories closed over the parent's `ExtensionAPI` — cwd, eventBus,
and runtime all pointed at the parent. Any tool/handler/command that
referenced `api.exec()`, `api.events`, or `api.runtime` still acted on the
parent session/worktree from inside an isolated subagent.
Forward only the path list; each session rebuilds extensions through
`loadExtensions` so factories see the right `ExtensionAPI`.
- `extensibility/extensions/loader.ts`: extract `discoverExtensionPaths`
(FS scan only) from `discoverAndLoadExtensions`. The combined helper now
composes the two. New export added to the package barrel.
- `sdk.ts`:
- Add `discoverSessionExtensionPaths()` (the `disableExtensionDiscovery`-aware
path-only counterpart of `loadSessionExtensions`).
- Add `preloadedExtensionPaths?: string[]` to `CreateAgentSessionOptions`.
Three loader branches: `preloadedExtensions` (CLI same-process reuse,
still shallow-cloned), `preloadedExtensionPaths` (subagent: skip scan,
reload locally), or full discovery.
- Document `preloadedExtensions` as same-process-only; subagent
forwarding MUST use `preloadedExtensionPaths`.
- `tools/index.ts`: `ToolSession.extensionsResult` → `extensionPaths:
string[]` for the same reason.
- `task/executor.ts` and `task/index.ts`: forward `extensionPaths`. Drop
the forward for the isolated `runSubprocess` branch — worktree cwd ≠
parent cwd, so the subagent re-discovers extensions against its own
tree.
- New `test/sdk-extensions-per-session-binding.test.ts` pins the contract:
two `loadExtensions` calls on the same path with different `cwd` and
different `EventBus` instances yield distinct Extension + runtime
objects whose factories close over the per-call bindings.
- Updated `executor-pass-through` and `sdk-preloaded-extensions-isolation`
tests for the new option name and comment context.

Reviewer flagged that forwarding `LoadedCustomTool[]` from a parent session
to a subagent reused tool instances whose factories had closed over the
parent's `CustomToolAPI` — `cwd`, `exec`, `pushPendingAction`, and `ui` all
pointed at the parent. In isolated tasks the tool would `exec` against the
parent worktree and queue pending actions on the parent session.
Forward only the path list; let each session rebuild tools through
`loadCustomTools` so factories see the right `CustomToolAPI`.
- `extensibility/custom-tools/loader.ts`: extract `discoverCustomToolPaths`
(FS scan only) from `discoverAndLoadCustomTools`; export
`ToolPathWithSource`. The combined helper is now `discoverCustomToolPaths`
+ `loadCustomTools`.
- `sdk.ts`: replace `preloadedCustomTools` (`LoadedCustomTool[]`) with
`preloadedCustomToolPaths` (`ToolPathWithSource[]`). The custom-tools
block runs `loadCustomTools` unconditionally; only the path scan is
skipped when the caller pre-discovered it.
- `tools/index.ts`: `ToolSession.loadedCustomTools` →
`ToolSession.customToolPaths` for the same reason.
- `task/executor.ts` and `task/index.ts`: forward `customToolPaths`.
Drop the forward for isolated subagents — the worktree shifts `cwd`, so
the subagent re-discovers tools against its own working tree.
- New `test/sdk-custom-tools-per-session-binding.test.ts` pins the contract:
two `loadCustomTools` calls on the same path with different `cwd` and
different `pushPendingAction` callbacks yield distinct tool instances
whose factories see the per-call bindings.
- Updated `executor-pass-through` and `sdk-preloaded-extensions-isolation`
tests for the new option name and added a `ToolPathWithSource` fixture.
Refs PR review on #2193
Each `runSubprocess` call re-ran `loadCapability<Rule>()`,
`loadSessionExtensions()`, and `discoverAndLoadCustomTools()` because
`ExecutorOptions` and the `createAgentSession()` call inside the executor
omitted three pass-through fields the parent had already paid for. The
already-correct paths (skills, context files, workspace tree, MCP manager)
showed the intended pattern.
- Cache `rules`, `extensionsResult`, and `loadedCustomTools` on the
parent's `ToolSession`.
- Add `rules` / `preloadedExtensions` / `preloadedCustomTools` to
`ExecutorOptions`; forward them from both `runSubprocess` call sites
in `task/index.ts` and into the executor's `createAgentSession()`.
- Add `preloadedCustomTools` to `CreateAgentSessionOptions` and skip
`discoverAndLoadCustomTools()` when it is supplied.
- Shallow-clone `extensionsResult.extensions` when reusing
`preloadedExtensions`, so the per-session autoresearch + custom-tools
inline wrappers never leak back into the caller's array.
Fixes#2190
- Updated `convertToLlm` logic to emit `developer` role for custom, hook, and file-mention inputs.
- Simplified OpenAI compact output filtering to retain only `user` and `assistant` messages, removing legacy `system-reminder` pattern checks.
- Adjusted compaction and session tests to match the new developer-role mapping and expected compacted content.
- Propagated `schemaOverridden` from `YieldTool` into executor `YieldItem` metadata.
- Bypassed schema validation on override or schema-builder errors and kept payload output with success exit.
- Emitted `SUBAGENT_WARNING_SCHEMA_OVERRIDDEN` so accepted override results no longer surface as `schema_violation`.
`finalizeSubprocessOutput` always spliced collected `report_finding`
entries onto a top-level `findings` array regardless of the active output
schema. A caller-supplied schema with `additionalProperties: false` and
no `findings` property would accept the raw payload in-tool (via the
`yield` validator, which only sees the pre-injection data) but then fail
post-mortem validation — emitting `schema_violation: findings: must not
be present` and propagating as a fatal `RuntimeError` through
`agent-bridge.ts` and the eval Python/JS preludes, collapsing the entire
workflow cell along with any prior successful subagent work.
`normalizeCompleteData` now takes the resolved validator and only
performs the injection when the augmented candidate validates. When the
schema rejects it, the raw payload is returned instead — which the in-
tool yield validator already accepted, so the lockstep guarantee
documented at the top of `output-schema-validator.ts` is honored.
Findings remain visible via the agent progress stream and JSONL
artifact, so no information is dropped when injection is suppressed.
Both finalize call paths (yield-success and no-yield fallback) now share
the single validator build instead of constructing it twice, and the
yield-path schema_violation branch is now reached only via the
explicit malformed-schema check, never via spurious findings rejection.
Fixes#2070
- Added `/tan` slash command registration and interactive handling.
- Added TanCommandController validation and async task scheduling for `/tan` dispatch.
- Added session cloning that suppresses breadcrumbs, copies artifacts, and handles abort cleanup.
- Added `promptCacheKey` support in Agent and inherited `providerPromptCacheKey` in session creation.
- Used `||` so empty stderr falls through to abortReason in agent bridge.
- Preferred assistant errorMessage over "Cancelled by caller" on internal aborts.
- Forced `maxRuntimeMs: 0` for eval subagents via ExecutorOptions override.
- Skipped count/concurrency normalization when --bench is set.
- Errored when no OAuth accounts resolve for the provider.
- Updated flag docs to run one request per OAuth account.
- Added `loadOverallPlanReference` to resolve a session plan reference from local storage and skip empty or missing files.
- Updated task execution to read the active plan reference (except in plan mode) and pass it into each spawned subagent.
- Extended the subagent system prompt and session SDK/tools plumbing so subagents receive and render the approved plan path and contents.
- Renamed `TodoWriteTool` to `TodoTool` and its source/prompt files.
- Updated tool registration, schema, renderers, and gating to `todo`.
- Adjusted cursor provider native tool names and tests to match.
- Renamed strike-animation constants and `todo-error-reminder` type.
The catch around the subagent yield-reminder prompt previously logged
every exception at ERROR. User cancel (^C) and compaction-driven aborts
both surface as ToolAbortError through awaitAbortable, so benign control
flow generated 9 spurious 'Subagent prompt failed' errors in 2 days on
the reporter's instance.
Gate the ERROR branch on '!abortSignal.aborted && !(err instanceof
ToolAbortError)' and route the abort path to logger.debug. The outer
catch + finally still mark the run aborted, so observable behaviour is
unchanged.
Fixes#1623
- Converted [SECTION]...[/SECTION] markers to "SECTION\n===" format in system prompt templates.
- Updated system conventions doc to reference the new marker style.
- Updated tests to match against the new header pattern.
- Added parentMnemosyneSessionState propagation from session state through SDK, executor, and task options into nested sessions.
- Added getMnemosyneSessionState() and rekeying logic to refresh Mnemosyne IDs during session sync, switch, and restore.
- Added Mnemosyne reset and teardown cleanup on unaliasing or restoration to avoid stale state.
- Added `mnemosyne.scoping` setting: `global`, `per-project`, and `per-project-tagged`.
- `per-project-tagged` writes to a project-local bank while merging global memories on recall.
- Refactored `MnemosyneSessionState` to manage scoped recall/retain targets and deduplication.
- Updated hindsight tools to route recall/retain through scoped methods.
- In `resolveApproval`, yolo mode now returns the user policy directly (`allow`/`prompt`/`deny`) and ignores tool `override` prompts.
- Updated approval-mode and approval unit tests to match the new behavior for critical bash patterns under yolo and auto-approve.
- Updated docs and settings metadata to describe yolo as user-policy-driven rather than override-driven.
- Added `ToolTier`, `ToolApproval`, and `ToolApprovalDecision` types and exported approval APIs.
- Updated approval-mode options from `auto|prompt|custom` to `always-ask|write|yolo` and defaulted mode to `yolo`.
- Changed approval resolution to apply per-tool decisions first, then mode-tier limits, with legacy-mode migration.
- Assigned read/write/exec `approval` and approval-detail prompts across built-in, custom, extension, and MCP tools.
- approval: user 'tool: deny' now wins over critical-pattern override
(the override only tightens allow->prompt; it must never re-arm a denied tool).
- approval: rename hindsight policy keys to match registered tool names
(recall/retain/reflect, not hindsight_recall/hindsight_retain).
- approval: head+tail truncation for bash/ssh command prompts so a
destructive suffix buried after a long benign preamble stays visible.
- task/executor: force tools.approvalMode='auto' in createSubagentSettings
so subagents (which have no UI) cannot deadlock on per-tool prompts;
the parent's approval of the task call is the authorization.
- docs/approval-mode: rewrite so every example surfaces tools.approvalMode
and explains that tools.approval is ignored outside 'custom' mode.
- Removed per-session run queues from JS and Python backends, allowing async cells on the same session id to interleave.
- Introduced `getEvalSessionId` on ToolSession so subagents spawned via `task` inherit the parent's executor id and share JS VM and Python kernel state.
- Switched JS runtime state from module-level fields to AsyncLocalStorage so concurrent runs route output and tool calls to their own context.
- Changed Python runner to an asyncio event loop with per-request tasks and ContextVar-based run id tracking for concurrent execution.
- Added mtime-based module cache eviction to preserve singleton state across re-imports of unchanged local files.
- Unified output schema construction and validation by adding buildOutputValidator and using it in YieldTool and task executor.
- Added MAX_SCHEMA_RETRIES so YieldTool now retries schema failures three times with hints before overriding.
- Updated failure handling to use shared summarizeValidationFailure and formatters for required-field reporting.
- Added tests for output-schema-validator and YieldTool covering malformed schemas and nested-array retry edge cases.
Queued extension-delivered user messages when deliverAs is set and waited for session_start extension message sends before prompting subagents.
Fixes#1343
- Captured `tool_execution_update` snapshots for `task` calls into in-flight progress state for live nested rendering.
- Cleared in-flight task snapshots at task start and completion to prevent stale nested progress from persisting.
- Updated progress rendering to combine completed and in-flight task details through a dedicated nested task tree view.
The report_finding tool's priority is exposed as a string enum
("P0"-"P3") for ergonomics, but the reviewer agent and every
custom review agent declare priority as `type: number` in their
JTD output schema. The cast at executor.ts:1473 lied about the
runtime shape, so the auto-injected `findings[].priority` flowed
through as strings and every yield with at least one finding was
rejected with `findings.0.priority: expected number, received string`,
forcing the run into the schema_violation exit path.
Added `toReviewFinding(details)` in tools/review.ts that maps the
priority enum to its numeric ordinal via the existing PRIORITY_INFO
table and use it at the boundary in executor.ts. Render paths still
see the original `ReportFindingDetails` shape (string priority)
through normalizeReportFindings, so display formatting is unaffected.
Fixes#1350
- Added `retry.maxDelayMs` to the settings schema and interfaces, with a default cap for provider backoff delays.
- Updated session auto-retry logic to fail fast when a requested wait exceeds the cap without fallback, emitting terminal auto-retry failure state.
- Propagated retry state and failure data into task progress and rendering so children show retry/wait details and reminder prompts stop after terminal errors.
Adds optional autoloadSkills field to agent frontmatter that automatically loads listed skills when a sub-agent is spawned. Uses the same buildSkillPromptMessage + sendCustomMessage mechanism as interactive skill loading, queued via sendCustomMessage({ triggerTurn: false }) before the first session.prompt(task). No extra agent turns, no new injection path. Skills stay in listing for sub-resource access. Compaction behavior matches manual loading. Unknown skill names silently skipped.
Lore-id: f85fdbdc
Constraint: autoload must use buildSkillPromptMessage + sendCustomMessage, never modify systemPrompt or use contextFiles
Constraint: triggerTurn must be false to avoid extra agent turns
Rejected: append to systemPrompt | agent cannot distinguish skill content from own instructions
Rejected: contextFiles injection | agent sees opaque file blob, cannot discover sub-resources
Rejected: promptCustomMessage per skill | N extra agent turns with model inference
Directive: autoload skill names are resolved against parent session skill list at spawn time in task/index.ts
Tested: TypeScript compiles clean with tsc --noEmit
Tested: parseAgentFields parses array and CSV string frontmatter
Tested: parseAgentFields returns undefined for absent and empty fields
Not-tested: bun test cannot run locally due to missing pi_natives native addon (requires Rust toolchain)
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Reversibility: clean
buildOutputValidator already exists in task/executor.ts but only ran on
the fallback JSON parse path. Subagents that called yield directly with
a data payload skipped validation entirely, so a schema-conforming-
empty-object (e.g. `{}` against a schema requiring `findings`) was
returned as a successful task.
finalizeSubprocessOutput now invokes the validator on every yield path
and on the fallback completion path. On failure the result carries
error="schema_violation", a typed message, the missing required field
list, and a truncated preview of the offending data. exitCode=1 and
isError=true so existing consumers in task/index.ts surface it as a
failed task without code changes.
- Runtime-limit timeout is now tracked with a sticky runtimeLimitExceeded flag, so later caller aborts during teardown cannot downgrade the timeout state and let a late yield report success.
- Awaited setup operations before the first prompt are now raced against the subagent abort signal, including auth discovery, model refresh, model resolution, session open, session creation, extension session_start, prompt, and waitForIdle.
- Added defensive abort re-check after registering the abortSignal listener plus a checkAbort() immediately before await session.prompt(...), so a wall-clock timer that fires during pre-prompt setup is no longer lost between listener registration and the prompt call.
- Late yield events arriving after a wall-clock timeout no longer flip the result to success: a runtimeLimitExceeded flag derived from the internal abortReason forces wasAborted=true and exitCode=1 regardless of hasYield, while yield payloads remain captured in extractedToolData.
- Async task progress now copies contextTokens and contextWindow from the completed SingleResult onto AgentProgress, so backgrounded tasks still surface their context gauge to the UI.
- Replaced fromTypeBox conversion with a JSON-schema validator flow in ai tool handling and execution paths.
- Added recursive schema validation and expanded TypeBox checks for refs, enums, uniqueItems, and constraint keywords.
- Sanitized Azure/CCA tool schemas by dropping unsupported fields and rewriting oneOf tool branches as anyOf.
- Tightened argument and model-config validation, preserving unknown tool fields and adding apiKey plus compatibility flags.
- Added canonical `pi.zod` schema API exports and removed TypeBox package exports/imports.
- Migrated Tool schema typing from TypeBox to shared `TSchema`/Zod flow with legacy TypeBox compatibility.
- Updated AI provider adapters and MCP/agent builders to convert tool params through `toolWireSchema()`.
- Reworked schema validation from AJV to Zod-safe parsing with `fromTypeBox`, `toolWireSchema`, and meta schema checks.
- Added a task.maxRuntimeMs setting with a default disabled state for per-subagent runtime limits.
- Updated subprocess execution to enforce the configured wall-clock timeout, mark timeouts as aborts, and include timeout-specific abort messaging.
- Tracked per-turn context size and context window through task progress/results and updated UI renderers to display current context against window with cumulative tokens rendered separately.
- Task tool sessions now expose and forward parent OpenTelemetry config when creating subagent tasks.
- Subprocess execution now derives child telemetry from the parent config with the subagent identity and child session conversation handling.
- Subagent creation now records a handoff span using the resolved parent telemetry handle before running the child loop.
- Added a shared session command helper that aggregates extension, prompt, and skill slash commands.
- Updated ACP, extension UI, runtime-init, and task executor extension contexts to return session command data instead of empty arrays.
