Some models intermittently prefix an otherwise-valid path with a leading
`:` (e.g. `:/abs/path`, `:../rel`). read/edit/grep hard-failed because
resolveToCwd left the colon intact and resolution missed the real file.
The #4618 literal-preferring probe cannot recover it: the literal
`:/abs/path` does not exist on disk, so the peel proceeds to an empty
path.
Strip the mangled prefix in expandPath — the shared resolution funnel for
read (resolveReadPath), grep (resolveToolSearchScope), and edit
(resolvePlanPath) — mirroring the existing @-prefix normalization. The
lookahead only fires before `/`, `~/`, `./`, or `../`, so selector-shaped
tokens like `:raw` are untouched.
Fixes#5508
- Kept opaque MCP resource paths unchanged during JS pagination.
- Sent JS line ranges through the read tool selector field.
- Covered the shipped JS prelude and updated the changelog.
Fixes#5353
The advisor runtime rejected every content-less stop completion as a
failed turn, so a deliberate silent review (the documented verifier
behavior) triggered retries and a spurious "unavailable" warning. Only
treat a content-less stop as a failure when it produced no output signal
(zero output and reasoning tokens), so a token-bearing silent stop counts
as a successful silent review.
Fixes#5493
- Minted the guided-goal Codex side session id once per interview in handleGuidedGoalCommand and threaded it through every turn via GuidedGoalTurnOptions.sideSessionId, so a multi-question interview shares a single websocket-only Codex socket instead of opening a fresh one each turn (which could trip websocket_connection_limit_reached and fall back to the rejected SSE path).
- Exported newGuidedGoalSessionId; runGuidedGoalTurn mints its own id only when no side session id is supplied (one-shot callers, tests).
- Added regression coverage asserting the supplied side session id is reused across turns.
Fixes#5304
Cursor exec bridges derived failure state only from thrown exceptions, so structured AgentToolResult.isError failures were emitted as successes. Propagate the returned flag through standard and streaming shell execution, with regression coverage for both paths.
- Kept opaque MCP resource paths unchanged during pagination.
- Sent line ranges through the read tool selector field.
- Covered paged artifact and MCP reads in the Python prelude test.
Fixes#5353
Added a direct-argv PTY entry point and used it for Windows launch sessions so portable-pty no longer re-quotes cmd.exe command text.
Rejected direct .bat and .cmd applications with guidance to use cmd.exe /c.
Fixes#5416
wantsSnapcompact is true for both the default strategy and an explicit
/compact snapcompact mode override. The prior fix downgraded both to LLM
compaction, which silently shipped the transcript to a provider for users
who deliberately requested the local-only no-LLM archive path. Only the
default-configured strategy now falls back; explicit snapcompact keeps
failing locally. Added a regression test for the explicit path.
Fixes#5064
Switching from a vision model to a text-only model kept replaying
historical image content blocks to the new provider, which rejected them
with invalid_argument. The convertToLlm wrapper in sdk.ts only filtered
images when images.blockImages was set, never by model capability, so
the outbound request carried image blocks the active model could not
accept.
Add replaceLlmImagesWithText() to scrub image blocks out of the
already-converted LLM message view, and call it from the sdk wrapper
when the active model's input lacks "image". History on disk keeps its
images; only the provider request is scrubbed, and the check reads the
active model dynamically so a /model switch takes effect next turn.
Fixes#5400
