Checked structured classifier refusals before the interrupted-output retry guard so provider refusals with explanatory content still use the configured fallback path.
Fixes#2683
Re-throw ToolAbortError from soft-expired issue and PR synchronous refreshes instead of falling back to stale cached content.
Cover the abort path in github-cache tests.
Fixes#2684
- 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.
Refresh soft-expired issue and PR view cache rows synchronously before returning content, while keeping PR diff rows on stale-first refresh semantics.
Add stale fallback warnings when a live refresh fails and cover the cache/protocol behavior in tests.
Fixes#2684
- 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.
Prevented auto-retry from regenerating write calls after a provider stream timeout has already exposed assistant content or tool-call arguments.
Fixes#2683
- 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.
- Updated the assistant-message thinking animation to cycle through rising block glyph frames.
- Updated the accompanying comment to describe the new block-based pulse motion.
- Added a token-first four-phase design-system workflow (analyze, build-if-missing, compose-with-tokens, verify) to the designer agent so visual work references design tokens instead of hardcoded magic numbers.
- Added an evidence standard to the reviewer agent: a finding is not real until you can name the exact input that triggers it, and passing tests are not proof of correctness.
- Added an evidence-bound completion requirement to the task agent: name the exact check run and its observable result before returning.
- Added a return_handle (Python) / returnHandle (JS) option to the eval agent() helper that returns a DAG node dict { text, output, handle, id, agent } instead of bare text, where handle is the spawned agent's recoverable agent:// URI.
- Enabled downstream pipeline/parallel stages to reference a large transcript by handle/output instead of re-inlining it; the default path stays backward compatible (bare text, or the parsed object under schema).
- Documented return_handle and the acyclic DAG-wiring pattern in the eval tool description and added a VM-level prelude regression test for the node shape and the no-details fallback.
Keep provider-anchored pre-prompt checks based on the prior provider prompt usage plus only positive current system/tool token growth, avoiding a second full charge for unchanged non-message context.
Fixes#2628
- Suppressed MCP connecting and LSP startup event renders when startup.quiet is enabled.\n- Added regression coverage for quiet MCP and LSP startup event handling.\n\nFixes #2639
- Renamed ToolCallSyntax type to Dialect and Grammar interface to DialectDefinition across all packages.
- Moved grammar directory to dialect and updated all import paths in agent, ai, catalog, and coding-agent packages.
- Added renderTranscript and renderThinking methods to DialectDefinition, enabling native dialect-aware conversation serialization.
- Consolidated rendering utilities into new dialect/rendering.ts with shared helpers for ChatML, legacy text, and dialect-specific formatting.
- Updated conversation serialization in agent and coding-agent to use dialect.renderTranscript() for native turn envelope rendering.
Restricted MSYS and WSL drive alias normalization to forward-slash roots so native Windows root-relative paths like \d\logs stay on the current drive.
Fixes#2634
Mapped MSYS and WSL drive aliases before bash cwd validation and brush filesystem resolution so cd, stat-style tests, and tool cwd handling agree on Windows.
Fixes#2634
Render a breathing dots pulse (·‥…‥) in place of a hidden thinking block while the model is actively reasoning, so streaming progress is visible with hideThinkingBlock enabled. The pulse shows only while the block is live (not finalized), thinking is hidden, no tool call has started, and the tail block is thinking; it yields to streamed text and is removed when the block is sealed.
- Canonicalized assistant and thinking messages by trimming and collapsing dot text.
- Skipped rendering assistant and thinking blocks when canonicalized content was empty.
- Filtered ACP thinking notifications and session outputs to ignore placeholder content.
- Added canonicalizeMessage tests for undefined, blank, whitespace, and dot-only inputs.
- Updated compaction, branch summarization, and session dump formatting to pass preferred model tool syntax into conversation serialization.
- Enhanced shared serializers to render assistant tool calls and tool results through grammar envelopes when syntax is available, with the prior compact format as fallback.
- Aligned prompt, preview, and test fixtures to the new transcript tags: `[Think]`, `[Tool Call]`, and `[Tool Result]`.
- Added `WorkerInbox` and `installWorkerInbox(port)` to queue worker messages before bind.
- Added `consumeWorkerInbox()` to replay buffered messages and clear one active inbox.
- Added buffered inbox consumption in JS and tab worker transports before direct message handlers.
- Normalized worker selector arguments to the `__omp_worker_*` naming across workers and tests.
- Added an `interruptible` field to AgentTool and documented when it is honored.
- Updated immediate-mode tool execution to poll steering during in-flight interruptible calls and abort them when steering is queued.
- Marked the coding `job` tool as interruptible and added tests covering mid-wait aborts versus boundary-only steering drain.
- Replaced Bun.sleep and wall-clock timing with fake timers (vi.useFakeTimers), release gates, and deterministic polling across 15+ test files to eliminate flakiness and improve speed.
- Consolidated per-test fixture setup into beforeAll/afterAll lifecycle hooks across 20+ test files, reducing redundant initialization and improving test performance by reusing shared immutable fixtures.
- Stubbed network calls in ModelRegistry and test discovery to prevent unintended outbound requests during test execution.
- Replaced subprocess-based test coordination (file markers, Bun.sleep polling) with in-memory fakes (FakeWebSocket, FakeLspServer, VirtualClock) for deterministic, fast test execution.
- Added Gemini and Gemma syntax routing by model family and owned syntax env values.
- Added Gemini and Gemma in-band parsers for tool_code and token-based tool_call streams.
- Added rendering support for Gemini fenced tool_code/tool_outputs and Gemma tool tokens.
- Fixed parsing edge cases for comments, string escapes, nested args, and truncated blocks.
- Added a streamingBehavior field to submitted user inputs and threaded it through interactive mode types and controller start-up.
- Updated interactive submission dispatch to default to followUp queueing while preserving explicit steer intent when provided.
- Changed tests to verify followUp and steer queueing behavior, preventing AgentBusyError from race-window busy sessions.
- Captured each row's initial position in AgentHubOverlayComponent on first refresh and reused it on later refreshes.
- Changed subsequent sorting to prioritize status then prior row position, so activity updates no longer reordered visible rows.
- Added a regression test that verifies row ordering stays stable when activity changes and new agents append at the end.
- #handleAgentEvent now delegates non-`agent_end` events to a new `#processAgentEvent` routine.
- For `agent_end`, it tracked a resolver promise via `#trackPostPromptTask` before awaiting event handling and resolved it in `finally`.
- This kept `#waitForPostPromptRecovery()` from returning before deferred compaction or handoff work was registered.
Track the non-message token estimate used for provider-anchored assistant usage, then add only positive current system/tool growth during pre-prompt threshold checks. Restore released collab changelog entries to the immutable 15.13.1 section.
Fixes#2628
Include the current system prompt and active tool schemas when provider-anchored pre-prompt checks estimate threshold pressure, and cover the case with a regression test.
