- Added resolveAdvisorDeliveryChannel in advisor tooling to map each note to aside, steer, or preserve using severity, auto-resume suppression, core-streaming, and abort state.
- Updated AgentSession advice enqueuing to route concern/blocker notes through that resolver, preserving them only when the interrupted turn is idle or tearing down and steering them during active resumed turns.
- Added regression tests for resolveAdvisorDeliveryChannel covering nit versus interrupting severities across streaming, aborting, and suppression combinations.
- Rewrote `formatSessionDumpText` in `session-dump-format.ts` to emit the pre-16.x full dump: system-prompt prelude, model/thinking config, tool inventory with parameters, and the transcript as markdown role headings (`## User`, `## Assistant`, `### Tool Call`/`### Tool Result`), reusing `renderDelimitedThinking` for `<thinking>` blocks.
- Dropped the compact default and the `[raw]` flag from `/dump`: removed the `isRaw` parameter from `handleDumpCommand` in `command-controller.ts`, `interactive-mode.ts`, and `types.ts`, and removed the `inlineHint: "[raw]"`/`compact` plumbing in `builtin-registry.ts`.
- Updated the `formatSessionAsText` doc comment in `agent-session.ts` to describe the verbose dump shape.
- Removed the obsolete `formatSessionDumpText raw thinking` suite from `advisor.test.ts` and refreshed `session-dump-format.test.ts` to assert the verbose dump output.
- Recorded the revert in the coding-agent changelog and trimmed `/dump` from the compact transcript tool-intent-prefix entry.
- Introduced advisory note output as `<advisory>` tags with optional severity and guidance.
- Updated session transcript formatting to `### Session update` and inline watched role labels.
- Added shared `escapeXmlText` utility and escaped XML-sensitive text in advisor outputs.
- Added one-shot success run token metrics and one-shot statistics reporting.
Parsed literal thinking envelopes independently before transcript rendering so interleaved thinking blocks do not collapse into one malformed wrapper. Added advisor raw dump regression coverage for sibling literal thinking blocks.\n\nFixes #2700
- Added an includeToolIntent option to session history formatting to control intent comments.
- Updated tool call rendering to prefix call lines with a leading comment when the tool argument contains a non-empty intent field.
- Enabled intent rendering in advisor history updates and added tests for intent-on and intent-off output paths.
- Added awaited `onTurnEnd` and `setOnTurnEnd` wiring for turn-end callbacks.
- Added `advisor.syncBacklog` settings (off/1/3/5) and documented 30-second catch-up caps.
- Fixed advisor runtime backlog handling with failure counters, waiters, and retry requeue.
- Updated agent sessions to enqueue advisor updates on turn end and removed direct `turn_end` branch logic.
- Added discovery of local, user, and ancestor `WATCHDOG.md` files via `discoverWatchdogFiles`.
- Appended discovered watchdog prompts to advisor system prompts during session setup.
- Added protocol startup defaults that force `advisor.enabled` and `advisor.subagents` false.
- Handled `maintainContext` failures and drained pending updates before token estimation.
- Removed the collapsed-mode truncation branch that forced advisor message cards to restrict bodies to two lines.
- Added a regression test covering long collapsed advisor notes to ensure they wrap at narrow widths instead of being cut short.
- Updated the package changelog to document the collapsed advisor note wrapping fix.
- Added advisor context maintenance hook and token estimation before prompting for auto-upkeep.
- Added re-prime replay handling to reset advisor context and recover deferred prompts.
- Implemented session-level context compaction with model promotion and snapcompact-first fallback summarization.
- Surfaced advisor settings in the model tab and updated advisor system guidance text.
- Created AdvisorRuntime and AdviseTool to drive a read-only advisor agent that delivers severity-tagged advice (nit, concern, blocker) with interruption policy and transcript delta rendering.
- Added /advisor slash command with on/off/status/dump subcommands to control advisor lifecycle and inspect advisor metrics (model, messages, tokens, cost).
- Added advisor.enabled and advisor.subagents settings to enable passive advisor review on main agent and spawned task/eval subagents.
- Implemented advisor message rendering with severity-color badges (blocker=error, concern=warning, nit=muted) in chat log and status line indicator (++ badge).
- Extended yield-queue and session-history-format to support advisor batching and optional thinking block inclusion.
