#finalizeFile marked the sink finalized then ran the capped-artifact tail
replay before closing. A write error during that replay threw before
sink.end(), and because #finalized was already set the executor finally
paths calling dispose() could not retry the close, leaking the descriptor
and masking the original tool error.
Moved sink.end() into a finally around the tail replay and swallowed both
the replay and close errors so the descriptor is always released and
dispose() never throws.
OutputSink.dump() was the only path that closed the spill Bun.FileSink.
The bash and Python executors re-throw on failure and their finally
blocks never closed the sink, so any large-output command that errored
leaked the artifact descriptor until an unrelated read (e.g. a SKILL.md
load) hit EMFILE.
Added an idempotent OutputSink.dispose() that closes the sink exactly
once (awaiting any in-flight sink creation, guarding post-finalize
resurrection) and wired it into every executor's finally block.
Fixes#6463
Per-line column cap trims individual lines with a `…` marker but does not
truncate the output window. OutputSink.dump() nonetheless set truncated=true
whenever a line was capped, and truncationFromSummary then reported a byte
tail-window truncation, appending a bogus "Showing lines X-Y of Z (…B limit).
Read artifact://N for full output" footer even though every line was shown.
- OutputSink no longer flips #truncated on column-cap-only drops.
- OutputSummary carries columnMax; truncationFromSummary surfaces it as the
"Some lines truncated to N chars" limit notice regardless of window state.
Fixes#4735
- Standardized elision markers across all tool outputs and filters to use cohesive `[...N [type] elided...]`, `[...Nln elided...]`, and `[...xB elided...]` syntax.
- Updated documentation, prompts, and test expectations to reflect the unified elision format.
- Improved transcript viewer robustness by preventing content aliasing through path-inclusive signature hashing.
- Added logic to clear stale transcript content when associated session files are deleted, accompanied by verifying test cases.
Adds enforceInlineByteCap() in streaming-output and applies it to bash and browser tool results: oversized outputs are elided head/tail with an artifact:// footer pointing at the full capture, closing paths that previously let 100KB+ inline results past the minimizer. Defense at the tool-result boundary (no-op for already-bounded output).
After rebasing onto a13e9827f, #createFileSink's head-retention flush
wrote directly to the sink, bypassing #emitToSink's budget accounting —
the on-disk artifact could grow past artifactMaxBytes by up to the head
window. Route the flush through #emitToSink and pin it with a
regression test (fails 24B vs 16B cap without the fix).
Addresses review feedback on #2083.
Codex review on PR #2083 caught a corruption case in `OutputSink`:
when a stream exceeds `artifactHeadBytes` but still fits below
`artifactMaxBytes`, post-head bytes flow into the tail ring without any
eviction (`droppedBytes === 0`) — yet `#flushArtifactTailIfCapped`
unconditionally injected `[ARTIFACT TRUNCATED: kept first … + last … of
…; 0 B elided from the middle]` between head and tail. The resulting
artifact-on-disk is then no longer verbatim and falsely advertises
truncation for outputs that actually fit. With the default 4 MiB / 3 MiB
split, every ~3–4 MiB bash capture in this band tripped the bug.
The notice is now gated on `droppedBytes > 0`. The tail ring is still
flushed unconditionally so head + tail still equal the verbatim stream
in this band. Regression pinned by a new test in
`test/streaming-output.test.ts` that pushes 24 bytes into a 16-head /
16-tail cap and asserts the file equals the payload byte-for-byte with
no `[ARTIFACT TRUNCATED:` marker.
Refs #2081
Two pathologies surfaced in the same captured failure (#2081): a subagent
spent 16 minutes hammering 205 `edit` calls (182 byte-identical no-ops)
against a file that already matched its payload, while a sibling bash
invocation persisted 7.6MB of PowerShell rich-object metadata to
`~/.omp/agent/artifacts/<id>.bash.log` from what was intended as a small
tail. Both are addressed independently here:
- Hashline executor now consults a per-ToolSession `noopLoopGuard` that
hashes the raw patch input and tracks consecutive no-ops per canonical
path. After NOOP_HARD_LIMIT (3) repeats of the same payload the soft
"byte-identical" hint escalates to a thrown ToolError, which the agent
loop surfaces as a tool failure rather than success-with-text — far
more effective at breaking the loop than the soft hint alone. A
non-noop commit (or any variant payload) resets the counter; state is
isolated per ToolSession so subagents cannot inherit each other's
history.
- OutputSink artifact-on-disk writes are now bounded by
`artifactMaxBytes` (default 4 MiB = 3 MiB head + 1 MiB rolling tail).
Once the head budget is exhausted, subsequent chunks divert into a
fixed-size tail ring; `dump()` replays the ring behind a single
`[ARTIFACT TRUNCATED: kept first … + last … of …; … elided from the
middle]` notice before closing the sink. Setting `artifactMaxBytes: 0`
restores the historical unbounded behavior. Sized comfortably above
anything a model would reasonably scroll through via the artifact URL
scheme while preventing the captured 7.6MB spray from sitting on disk.
The terminal-typing lag the reporter observed has multiple compounding
causes (transcript-render freezing is disabled on win32; the bash result
renderer lacks the per-render cache that the eval renderer already has).
Those land in a follow-up — the loop guard + artifact cap address the
root pathologies that turned the session into a multi-MB transcript in
the first place.
Fixes#2081
artifact spill now includes the head-retained bytes (full capture was missing first ~20KB); chunk throttle coalesces instead of dropping; cd-prefix extraction defers shell-expanded paths; interceptor rule is quote-aware and catches clobber and variable targets; completed async jobs release their Shell; at job cap commands degrade to foreground; PTY mode drops the non-interactive env and notes silent downgrades; timeout/abort annotations always appended; removed dead idle-timeout-watchdog.
