- Routed session tool provenance through live and rebuilt transcript render paths.
- Kept same-named extension tools on the generic renderer while preserving native tool rendering.
- Added regression coverage for an external recall result collision.
Fixes#7770
- The 'N tool calls elided' replay placeholder leaked tool activity while
display.hideToolActivity was on; it is now a visibility-aware component
wired into both the hotkey and /settings toggle paths.
- Added replay + live-reveal regression coverage.
- Implemented clipboard register management, parsing, and execution rules for CUT, COPY, and PASTE operations in the hashline engine.
- Added session-persistent clipboard state and integration across agent session execution, diff previews, and streaming tools.
- Added comprehensive validation, error messages, recovery handling, and test coverage for clipboard and block operations.
Status presenters (showWarning/showError/showStatus and extension/tool
error presenters) baked theme.fg() into Text at construction, so a
warning shown while the auto-theme default guess was dark kept the
dark-mode color after async appearance detection switched the active
theme to light — dark-catppuccin Mocha yellow on the light Latte
background (1.12:1 contrast, effectively invisible).
Add Text.setStyleFn(), a foreground styler evaluated at render time, and
route the transient status presenters through it. Because the coding
agent invalidates status components on onThemeChange, a theme swap now
re-shapes them against the live theme instead of replaying the palette
active when they were constructed.
Fixes#6337
Preserved settled user and assistant component instances during compaction-only transcript rebuilds so warmed Markdown and layout caches remain valid.
Covered both manual and automatic compaction paths with focused regression tests.
Fixes#6033
Scoped ordinary input frames to the focused component while retaining a full compose when input moves focus. Explicitly repainted the coding-agent pending-message sibling and covered stable focus, wrapped growth, focus movement, and queue clearing.
Fixes#5928
- 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.
- Added `StrippedToolCallsMarker` to identify assistant messages with dangling tool calls that were removed during context building.
- Updated `buildSessionContext` to preserve turn entries in transcripts even when all content is stripped, marking them with the count of elided calls.
- Updated `UiHelpers` to render a dim, italicized placeholder in the TUI when an assistant message has elided tool calls, preventing silent activity gaps.
- Updated transcript session context to use display.collapseCompacted setting instead of a hardcoded boolean.
- Enabled user-defined control over whether compacted history is collapsed during live rendering sessions.
- Implemented `/queue` command and `->`/`=>` shorthands to support deferred, sequential message processing.
- Added a robust parsing utility to handle various list-based queue inputs and automate yield management.
- Integrated visual decorations and state tracking to provide real-time feedback on queueing status.
- Enabled non-cursor line text decoration in the TUI to support dynamic queue header rendering and list numbering.
- Enabled persistence of dangling tool calls during transcript rebuilds by adding `keepDanglingToolCalls` configuration.
- Integrated `seal()` logic for pending tool blocks to properly finalize history during idle session states.
- Enhanced UI helpers and session context to preserve assistant turns during streaming or mid-turn rebuilds.
- Added comprehensive unit and integration tests to verify correct tool call tracking and transcript integrity.
- Split mixed assistant text into per-tool segments instead of one post-tool tail.
- Insert each segment immediately after its preceding tool component across live and rebuilt transcripts.
- Extended the regression test to cover two tool calls with middle and final assistant text.
Fixes#4871
- Split mixed assistant messages so pre-tool text stays before tool panels while trailing text renders after the tool timeline.
- Applied the split to live streaming, transcript rebuilds, and file-backed transcript rendering.
- Added a focused EventController regression test for text/toolCall/text Cursor-shaped turns.
Fixes#4871
The token-usage row shown under assistant messages (display.showTokenUsage) now leads with the turn's local wall-clock time down to the second (YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss), sourced from the assistant message's persisted timestamp so live, rebuilt, and restored transcripts all show the turn time rather than the view time.
createUsageRowBlock takes timestamp as an optional trailing argument, preserving its (usage, durationMs, ttftMs) public call contract on the package's ./modes/components/* export surface.
Stopped new-session and session-switch UI paths from detaching active loader/render components without running their disposal hooks.
Added container and loader coverage for disposing children before destructive transcript/status replacement.
Fixes#4686
Replace the visible-anchor suppression with a billed-usage predicate so live and resume paths agree on rendering the badge whenever the turn actually consumed tokens. Only genuinely free turns (no input, output, cache, or premium requests) drop the row, so hidden automated turns keep cost transparency.
Fixes#4532
Suppress token-usage rows for assistant turns that have no visible text, tool call, or terminal error anchor. Share the same decision across live rendering and transcript rebuilds so resume matches live output.
Fixes#4532
- Enforced strict history protection by gating ephemeral block removal on uncommitted state across controllers and UI components.
- Optimized settled-row calculations using explicit mermaid fence detection and improved scrollback integrity.
- Refactored transience management to target only actively streaming blocks, preventing redundant label rendering.
- Implemented persistent compaction for auto-retry errors and enabled consistent terminal title updates during session renaming.
- Introduced an automated retry recovery system to track, manage, and persist recovered error states within agent sessions.
- Enabled compact transcript rendering for recovered auto-retry errors by removing heuristic commit machinery.
- Improved raw read tracking and provenance in the ReadTool to support refined file snapshot recording and hashline editing.
- Excluded recovered assistant messages from default model context and updated event controllers to handle retry recovery life cycles.
- Extracted decodeStreamedToolArgs into tool-args-reveal.ts and used it from both the live event path and transcript rebuilds, so mid-write theme/settings/focus replays no longer show stale streamed write/edit/eval content.
- Fixed the smoothing-off live path returning stale provider-parsed args.
- Documented the mandatory shared decode in the AGENTS.md streaming-preview hazard note; added changelog entries for this batch.
- Migrated internal streaming state from string-based properties to symbol-keyed properties for improved data isolation and safety.
- Replaced the deprecated `stripVariant` utility with centralized `clearStreamingPartialJson` and symbol-specific helper methods across all provider implementations.
- Implemented `stripStreamingBlockSymbols` and updated deep equality checks to ensure metadata does not interfere with content comparisons.
- Standardized streaming metadata access through a new `block-symbols` utility module.
Mid-turn renderSessionContext (settings overlay close, focus attach during streaming) now hands the rebuilt todo snapshot back to the EventController via the new inheritDisplaceableTodo method instead of sealing it. Idle rebuilds keep the historic seal path.
Added a regression test that asserts the trailing todo snapshot is published to the controller and stays displaceable while session.isStreaming is true.
Fixes#3516
Dropped eager todo snapshot displacement from tool_execution_start, streaming message_update, and the rebuild assistant-iteration step. Displacement now runs only when the next todo's successful result lands, so a failed follow-up leaves the last-good todo panel on screen.
Added regression coverage for the failed follow-up case and updated the streamed-second-todo test to drive displacement from the success result.
Fixes#3516
Resolved any tracked todo snapshot before storing a fresh one in the rebuild paths so an assistant message replaying multiple todo tool calls collapses to the final snapshot.
Added a renderSessionContext regression test for two todo tool calls in one rebuilt assistant message.
Fixes#3516
Kept successful todo result blocks live until a later todo update replaces them or the turn ends.
Added regression coverage for same-turn todo snapshot replacement after intervening tool output.
Fixes#3516
Tail appended transcript JSONL instead of rebuilding rendered history on every poll, collapse compacted history for live chat rendering, and replace synchronous session rewrites so tailers detect historical changes.
Fixes#3258
- Centralized draft state and image management by migrating fields from context to the CustomEditor component.
- Standardized transcript row construction by introducing shared helpers for background jobs, IRC traffic, and file mentions.
- Refactored redundant UI logic and helper functions into reusable utility modules to streamline message submission and component rendering.
- Standardized event handler types by consolidating lifecycle definitions into a shared module while maintaining public API stability.
- Added a `proseOnlyThinking` configuration setting to suppress raw code blocks in AI thinking traces.
- Implemented `formatThinkingForDisplay` utility to replace code blocks with ellipses in the UI.
- Integrated runtime toggling and live refreshing of message components via streaming reveal controllers.
- Added a live tokens-per-second indicator to the assistant thinking pulse.
- Verified logic with new unit and integration tests for thinking block presentation.
- Added tracking for expected cache invalidations during model changes, compactions, and plan-mode transitions.
- Included `cacheMissExplainedAt` metadata in session context to prevent displaying misleading cache miss warnings in the transcript.
- Updated controller logic to reset assistant usage markers when mode-switching or performing actions that invalidate the prompt cache.
- Added `display.cacheMissMarker` setting to enable visual indicators for prompt cache invalidation in assistant messages.
- Included updated theme symbols to represent cache misses across supported icon sets.
- Configured the selector controller to rebuild the chat display when the marker visibility setting is toggled.
- Implemented `detectCacheInvalidation` to identify when model requests lose their prompt cache.
- Added `CacheInvalidationMarkerComponent` to display a slim notice above affected assistant turns.
- Updated `ChatTranscriptBuilder` and `EventController` to track session usage and inject markers dynamically.
- Included comprehensive test coverage for invalidation detection logic and UI rendering.
- Refreshed all injected message frames with a consistent rounded-outline card design.
- Implemented icon-tagged headers for hooks, local skill invocations, and generic custom messages.
- Updated skill invocation cards with home-shortened paths, dynamic line count units, and compact invocation argument display.
- Unified branch summary styling with compaction banners to provide a consistent visual language for history collapse points.
- Removed leaked absolute home directory paths from skill metadata displays.
- 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.
