Neil	bb874f6bb3	test: retire cli cases that re-run a contract the sibling already owns (#24000) ... Audit sweep over `src/cli`. 23 cases retired and 2 `it.each` tables collapsed to the rows their parameter actually reaches. What went, by pattern: - Table rows whose varied parameter production never reads, so every row ran one identical path. - Second and third invocations of a contract already proven by the case above them, differing only in a field the assertion ignores. - Argument-shape and private-predicate checks duplicated at the real CLI boundary, where the same input is already driven end to end. - Assertions whose expected value came from the same helper under test. `src/cli/command-suggestion.ts` loses `export { levenshtein }`, a re-export no production caller used. The one test that stubs edit distance spies on `../shared/edit-distance` directly, which is the module `command-suggestion` imports, so the seam it needs is unaffected. Kept deliberately: `orchestration-lifecycle-json-rejection.test.ts` and `orchestration-migration.test.ts`, both named in `config/reliability-gates.jsonc` as sole evidence for a gate. While auditing the latter, its replay dimension turned out to be inert -- `it.each([false, true])` varies `lifecycle.duplicate`, and `hasLifecycleVerdict` (`orchestration-worker-settlement.ts:112-132`) reads only `action`, `authority` and `outcome`. The gate at `reliability-gates.jsonc:15861` nonetheless records "first and replayed legacy worker_done settlements are accepted". Left exactly as found and reported rather than collapsed, because correcting a gate's claim or adding real replay coverage is the owner's call. Verified: `pnpm test src/cli` (131 files, 1474 passed), `pnpm tc`, `check-reliability-gates.mjs` (140 gates), `check:code-quality:changed`.	2026-09-29 21:38:09 -07:00
Brennan Benson	62e3a5a9a2	fix(codex): turning Codex off per agent keeps its hook entry off (#23667) ... * refactor(agent-hooks): one predicate for whether an agent's status hooks are on "Global switch on and this agent not turned off" was spelled out separately in the startup controls, the settings reconcile, the retained-home reconcile, the WSL preflight RPC, the CLI preflight and the OpenCode plugin selection. They now share one function, in a module light enough for the CLI's per-launch Codex preflight to load. The PTY spawn env derives the Codex flag from the switch and opt-out list it already carries, the same way it does for OpenCode and Pi, instead of receiving a second copy. * fix(codex): launch and resume prep honour Codex's per-agent hook opt-out Turning Codex off in the per-agent hook settings removes Orca's Codex hook entry, but launch prep and session resume read only the global hooks switch, so the next Codex launch or resume wrote the entry straight back into the real ~/.codex or the account's home. Both now read the per-agent predicate, which the PTY spawn env and startup already honoured. * fix(codex): turning Codex off per agent clears the real ~/.codex entry While the real-home lane owns ~/.codex/hooks.json, the legacy system-home sweep stands down. That gate read only the global switch, so turning Codex off per agent ran remove() with the sweep still suppressed and left Orca's entry in the real ~/.codex. The gate now reads the per-agent predicate, the same as turning every hook off. * test(codex): cover the system ~/.codex sweep gate for Codex turned off The gate that lets the legacy system-home sweep run was an inline closure in startup, so reverting it to the global switch left CI green. It is now a pure function beside the gate it feeds, with a table test and a remove() test on a seeded ~/.codex: turning Codex off strips Orca's entry and keeps user hooks; with Codex on the entry stays. * fix(cli): keep the agent-status hooks predicate loadable by the packaged CLI The CLI's prepare-codex handler imported the predicate from src/main, but the Electron build rebuilds out/main from its declared entries only, so the packaged `orca agent hooks` commands could not load it (package jobs and the CLI bundle-parity test were red). The predicate reads only settings, so it now lives in src/shared, which the CLI compiles itself.	2026-09-29 11:30:10 -07:00

The lane now awaits the admitted turn's settlement: accepted consumes the claim, anything else returns the rows and drops this send's operation row, so the re-point on the next edge is a new send rather than a replay of unknown. * fix(native-chat): keep a committed /clear from failing on its replacement observer The observer runs after the clear's durable commit; a throwing adoption turned a committed clear into a failed RPC. It is now best-effort and logged, like the status feed's observer, and the successor's idle edges re-derive the adoption. * test(orchestration): pin /clear adoption across a chain of clears and a predecessor's check A session cleared twice before any edge hands both predecessors' Runs and mail to the end of the chain. A predecessor still live in the clear's tail reads none of the re-addressed mail: a session's direct mailbox is consume-on-read and holds no replayable batch. * test(orchestration): type the pending-settlement host test's send input without an assertion * fix(orchestration): keep a chat's orchestration address across /clear by deriving its lineage A chat's orchestration address is now the first session of its /clear lineage. Every session of the lineage resolves to that one actor when it acts and when it is reached, and delivery goes to the lineage's live session. Nothing is rewritten at a clear, so the predecessor-adoption path is gone: the commit-edge observer, the idle-edge rebind, and the unread-mail re-address. That path could unbind the successor's own Run and orphan all but one Run of a chain. The idle edge now opens the orchestration database through its lazy getter and logs when it cannot, instead of reading a field that stays null until the first orchestration call after a restart. * fix(orchestration): give back a structured pointer claim an earlier process left open A pointer the host admits as pending stamps its batch delivered, and only an in-memory settlement waiter gives it back if no turn ran. A process that died in that window left the batch stamped with nothing to release it, so the last result on that mailbox was never pointed again. When the database opens, every surviving pointer operation row is from an earlier process: its stamped batch is found by the row's fingerprint, released, and the row dropped, before the restored-mailbox scan points it again. A row whose batch was never stamped keeps its id for the retry. * test(orchestration): pin that a cleared chat's sends carry its conversation's address * fix(orchestration): open the orchestration database at an idle edge only when it already exists A profile with no orchestration database has no mail to redrive, so a structured chat's idle edge no longer creates one, and says nothing. An existing database is still opened lazily there. * fix(orchestration): read a chat-coordinated Run's session through the actor's generation A handle-less Run names its coordinator session only by an actor that still counts at the Run's current generation, the same rule every other binding read uses; an actor an older binary's rebind or unbind left behind no longer routes the Run's mail. A test pins that a cleared chat's run-create and run-use write its conversation's root actor at the Run's current generation. * refactor(orchestration): address a session's conversation by its bare root Orca session id Carries the Orca session id rename into coordinator delivery. A session's orchestration identity holds its conversation's bare Orca session id, the /clear lineage root's, and its mail address is derived from it by formatOrcaSessionAddress; a Run a cleared chat creates or uses stores that bare root id. A session recipient carries the parsed id and its address as distinct types, a handle-less coordinator's session is read through currentRunCoordinatorOrcaSessionId, and session ids read from records or PTY bindings are checked with isOrcaSessionId before they become an identity. The session address prefix comes from the one exported constant. * refactor(orchestration): canonicalize a cleared session through the one id hook and the party resolver - canonicalOrcaSessionId now walks a session's /clear lineage to its root; the parallel session identity and lost-worker rule are deleted, so the caller resolver, recipient routing, reach and idle-edge mailboxes all resolve a session through resolveOrcaSessionParty. - A Dispatch row's assignee_orca_session_id goes through the same hook. - The terminal-view delivery lane is gone with the terminal handoff: no PTY is bound to a session, so a chat's mail is always a session turn. - Pins a send to a Run-less chat's session address after a restart, when the send must start the agent-session host before routing reads its record. * fix(orchestration): point a structured session with the PTY lane's exact text A chat or structured worker is now told what a terminal agent is told: the pointer is formatMessagePointer with the CLI name the PTY lane resolves for a local terminal (orca, or orca-dev in a dev build), with no shell-specific invocation and no ack lesson. The lane still excludes the batch a reader holds unacknowledged and points newer mail; that stays host-side, and the reader's own check replays the held batch and names its ack as it does for a terminal. * fix(orchestration): deliver a cleared structured worker's mail to its live successor A terminal keeps its handle across /clear; a structured worker's successor now does the same. Mail at the worker's handle, its dispatch mailbox, and a Run it coordinates resolved to the session minted for the worker, which /clear replaced. Each now walks the /clear lineage forward to the live session, which the caller resolver already treats as the worker. * test(orchestration): compare a chat's pointer turn to the PTY lane's text for this build's CLI name * refactor(orchestration): resolve the local CLI name once, for the PTY lane and the structured lane alike * fix(orchestration): let a /clear-ed chat restate its address, placed by the host's lineage The CLI entry compared a restated --from/--terminal with the injected session id as a plain string, so a cleared chat restating the address it had before the clear (its lineage root, the address it keeps) was refused. Only the host's session records know the lineage, so a session address that is not this session's own spelling is now sent as the caller param, where the host's canonical-id check accepts it or refuses it before any effect. Plain restatements are still dropped and any other name is still refused at the entry. * test(orchestration): read the coordinator journal through the async snapshot, and wait for the held turn's handover Main made journalSnapshot async and delivers an accepted send once the host hands it over, so the fixture awaits the snapshot and waits for the provider's turn before echoing it. * refactor(orchestration): point a chat whose agent is not running through the plain send Main's host no longer has hold/release: an accepted send starts the agent itself. The pointer lane's wake step called host.hold, which no longer exists, so it is deleted from the pointer host, the delivery lane and their tests. An idle or evicted chat gets its pointer through the same send a user message takes; the claim is still consumed only on accepted and given back otherwise. * fix(orchestration): leave a chat whose provider died stopped instead of respawning it for mail A pointer whose provider died before echoing it is given back. The death's own status edge then redrove the mail, and since a send starts the agent, a provider that died on every turn was restarted about once a second for as long as the mail was unread. The pointer lane now reads, on every attempt, whether the session's latest send never ran because its provider exited or could not start, and holds the mail until a later send runs. Every trigger passes through that gate: a parked retry, the idle edge's re-derive and new mail. A rejection for any other reason still points at the next idle edge. * fix(orchestration): hold mail after a start the person must fix, placing every failure kind A start refused for a reason only the person can fix (not signed in, history too large, a managed-account problem) or one the host stopped because it never came is held like a failed start: the mail waits for the person's next message, which also retries the start. An account switch still in progress is transient, so it stays ungated and the first edge after the switch settles points the mail. One exhaustive record places every rejection kind, so a new kind does not compile until it is placed. * fix(orchestration): retry a structured pointer under its own id instead of gating on the failure reason A pointer send that failed was given back and re-sent under a fresh operation id, so every status edge after a provider death was a new send that started the provider again. A reason-string gate held some of those deaths, but missed a Codex crash with turn/start in flight (it settles unknown with the connection's error), latched all later mail after one transient death, and did not keep a user's Stop. A retry now reuses the mailbox's operation id, which the host answers by replaying the recorded verdict without reaching the provider. The id is re-minted only for new mail, after a later send ran, for a row an earlier process left, or once an account switch settles. Rows are stamped only on accepted, so the admitted-stage claim, its give-back and the restart claim-release scan are gone. * test(orchestration): pin that a Stop keeps a pointer unsent before the next status edge, too * fix(orchestration): point a structured chat's mail by the same rule as a terminal's The chat lane pointed newer mail past a batch its reader had checked and not acknowledged, while the terminal lane skips a mailbox until that batch is acked. A chat now waits for the ack the same way a terminal does, and the lookup that let the chat lane filter the held batch out is removed. * fix(orchestration): refuse a session address that gate-list or task-list --run would drop The CLI entry lets a `session:` address that is not the session's own spelling through for the host to place, but gate-list and task-list send no caller when --run names the Run, so `--from session:<other>` was silently ignored. With --run they now refuse it (consumer_fenced) before any request, the same as a conflicting terminal handle. * fix(orchestration): keep a failed mail redrive from skipping a chat's first-turn workspace rename A structured session's status callback redrives its mail before the first-turn workspace auto-rename, outside any try, so a database error there threw past the rename. The redrive now logs its failure and returns. * chore: take main's pnpm-lock.yaml the merge of origin/main left stale * fix(orchestration): give a stamp or park decision its own variant so the send branch narrows * fix(orchestration): re-mint a held structured pointer from facts that cannot strand it A pointer row whose id had no submission in the journal was always resent under that id, before any re-mint test ran. After a rewind rebuilt the journal, or a send refused before it was recorded aged past the host's 24h admission window, the mail was held forever: neither the person's next turn nor a restart pointed it again. The re-mint tests now run first. "The agent has run since" is any accepted send submitted after the row was minted; "an earlier process minted it" is a row whose id this lane did not send, not a wall-clock comparison a clock step could fool; and a row the host never recorded is re-minted once it is too old for the host to admit. The account-switch exception is gone: nothing tells the lane when a switch ends, and each outside edge during one added another pointer and failure to the chat. A parked pointer now retains as turn-unsettled. * fix(orchestration): let the host check a session caller that gate-list or task-list --run names 5f753af0a7 refused any `--from session:<x>` beside --run that was not the session's own spelling, which also refused a /clear-ed chat restating its lineage root, an address the host accepts everywhere else. The CLI now sends that address with --run, and the host's declared caller check accepts the root and refuses anyone else (consumer_fenced) before any effect. * fix(orchestration): date a pointer on the journal's clock so a backward clock step cannot re-mint it every edge	2026-09-29 10:46:58 -07:00

Neil	6e1b7e7fa3	test: remove junk tests that assert source text instead of behavior (#23815) ... Deletes 101 test files and trims 112 more, all matching documented junk patterns: exact source/import/string greps, copied inventories and export lists, duplicate invocations of a contract another test already owns, typeof-shape checks TypeScript already enforces, and self-comparisons. The largest group read a production `.ts` file and asserted on its text — for example a TaskPage test that required the source to contain `selectedRepos.find((r) => r.id === newIssueRepoId) ?? selectedRepos[0] ?? null`. Any behavior-preserving rename broke it; no behavior change ever did. Production-side follow-through: exports that only these tests imported are de-exported or deleted, stale comments pointing at removed censuses are dropped, and the reliability-gate registry, `cloud/package.json` test lists, and orphaned source-reading helpers are updated so nothing references a deleted file. Two files kept their real coverage and lost only the census scaffolding: `agent-status-producer-census.test.ts` now drives all five producers end to end instead of grepping the source tree, and `config-toml-trust-stale-writes` replaces an export-list parity check.	2026-09-29 01:21:53 -07:00
Brennan Benson	a5ce8251e3	Agent launches carry the surface that started them (#23697) ... * feat(agent-launch): every launch carries the surface that started it The host now attributes every agent it builds to the surface that asked for it, resolving a missing or unrecognized surface to 'unknown' in one place instead of silently skipping it. The CLI names itself on worktree.create and orchestration workers name themselves host-side. * fix(agent-launch): attribute the agent a startup-draft create launches The host builds a third kind of agent launch: a worktree.create with a startupDraft and no startupAgent, where the host picks the agent itself. It carried no launch record at all and ignored the caller's launchSource. Route it through the same resolver as the other two builders, and derive the startupAgent terminal record only from the resolver so no prebuilt record can stand in for it. * fix(agent-launch): attribute the agent a host-built agent session launches terminal.createAgentSession builds a fresh agent's launch on the host, like the other startup builders, but spawned it with no launch record, so those launches were never counted. Record them through the same resolver; the request names no surface, so they count as unknown. * test(agent-launch): require an attribution decision for every host-built agent startup	2026-09-28 20:33:59 -07:00
Neil	ccdb324b63	Add CodeBuddy as a built-in coding agent (#23740) ... * feat(agents): integrate CodeBuddy launch, status and session history * docs: record CodeBuddy lifecycle verification * fix(codebuddy): backfill scoped history and negotiate remote resume * test(cli): include CodeBuddy in known search agents	2026-09-28 18:11:25 -07:00
Brennan Benson	e8e144bf3c	fix(native-chat): a subagent's words are presented as that subagent's, never the parent's (#23605) ... * fix(native-chat): a subagent's words are presented as that subagent's, never the parent's The journal already names the agent that produced every row, but the transcript projection dropped it, so a subagent's prose rendered as the parent's reply, its tool calls folded into the parent's runs, and a settled turn could fold down to a subagent's words as its only visible answer. The transcript message now keeps the row's producer. The fold keeps each agent's calls in that agent's own run, a turn's answer is the session's own agent's last prose, and a subagent's row names the subagent on desktop, mobile and a worker's transcript text. * test(native-chat): give the window fixture's slot the attribution field it now carries * fix(mobile): read the subagent label the row is given, and pin the caption * fix(native-chat): keep interleaved agents in order and each agent's own run live Review follow-ups: - the fold is main's adjacency fold plus one condition: a row never folds into another agent's run, so an agent's later call stays below its subagent's work instead of jumping back into its earlier row - each agent has its own live frontier, so a parent still inside its spawn call reads as running while its subagent works below it - mobile names no one on a row whose only content is hidden behind its settled turn - a pending question from a subagent keeps its producer - worker reads serve only the producing agent's id, bounded like the roster key that names it, and drop the provenance fields - the single-message worker formatter is private, so no caller can drop names	2026-09-28 15:28:01 -07:00
Brennan Benson	2ca4ecbc61	feat(orchestration): let a structured chat run orchestration as itself (#22568) ... * feat(orchestration): inject the Orca session id into structured children and let the CLI act as it Every structured session's child (native Claude, native Codex, and the terminal view) carries ORCA_AGENT_SESSION_ID and reaches the Orca CLI. The CLI sends the id in the orchestration envelope; when present it is the caller, and a caller flag naming anyone else is refused before any request. The id is stripped from inherited PTY env and from the SSH host-CLI passthrough, and crosses into WSL so the host can refuse the cross-host claim. * test(orchestration): pin session id injection for native Claude, native Codex, the terminal view, WSL, PTY inheritance and SSH * test(orchestration): pin one caller precedence rule across every CLI verb that names its caller Adds the per-verb table (flagless acts as the session; a conflicting --from or --terminal is refused before any request; the session's own spellings are accepted), the enumerated guess population with its positive control, the structured worker's own handle, the identity-less refusal for an older child, the unchanged terminal agent, and the envelope. dispatch-show's --from only fills preview text, so it passes through unfenced and a session's flagless preview names the address the real dispatch writes. * refactor(orchestration): keep the identity-less marker reader to the marker; the id is checked first * test(orchestration): pin that a host refusal of the session surfaces verbatim from the CLI * fix(orchestration): keep the identity-less marker beside the id for CLIs that predate it A CLI older than the id, reached through a global install when a shell rc resets PATH, would otherwise guess a sibling's terminal in a chat that no longer carries the marker. It refuses on the marker instead; a current CLI checks the id first, so the marker never makes a session with an id identity-less. * fix(orchestration): refuse a conflicting --from on gate-list and task-list scoped by --run A --run listing needs no caller, so both handlers skipped the resolver and a --from naming another actor was dropped silently under a session. The conflict check now runs on that branch too; terminal callers are unchanged. * fix(orchestration): name this app's CLI by absolute path for a structured session's login shells A provider can run each command in a login shell: Codex runs zsh -lc, and the profile rebuilds PATH, putting a global install (possibly an older Orca) ahead of the directory Orca prepended. ORCA_CLI_COMMAND, which an agent resolves the CLI from first, is now the absolute launcher in that directory (the native launcher on Windows), so no shell's startup files can swap it. The PATH prepend stays for shells that read no profile. Found by the live coordinator run of the next PR. * test(orchestration): pin a structured worker's CLI command as this app's absolute launcher * test(orchestration): run the zsh login-shell arm in the real-shell lane that installs zsh The ordinary Linux unit lane has no /bin/zsh, so the zsh arm failed there with ENOENT. It moves to a live-shell file registered in the shell-contracts lane; the bash arm keeps running in every lane. The lane guard's detector now also sees a zsh spawned through the ProcessSpec program field, which is how this test escaped it. * fix(orchestration): omit a structured child's CLI command when no launcher resolves, and pin its instance A bare `orca` fallback named GNOME's screen reader on packaged Linux, and an inherited value named another app's CLI. The builder now deletes any inherited value, sets the absolute launcher only when one resolved, and pins ORCA_USER_DATA_PATH so a current CLI dials the instance that minted the id. Renames the marker reader to hasStructuredSessionMarker and records why the terminal view carries the id without the marker. * fix(terminal): name this app's CLI launcher by absolute path in every local terminal ORCA_CLI_COMMAND meant three things by lane: an absolute launcher for a structured session, a bare name for WSL, and nothing for any other terminal, so a structured session's terminal view lost it. Local terminals now get the same absolute launcher the structured lane gets; WSL keeps its guest command name, and a terminal whose launcher does not resolve still gets none. * feat(cli): hand a command to the session's own CLI when another Orca CLI was invoked A login shell can reorder PATH behind a global install, and an agent or its helper script can run bare `orca`, so the binary that answered depended on the agent following instructions. Orca's packaged launchers and bare-orca shims now export ORCA_CLI_SELF (outermost wins). At the CLI entry, when it names a different launcher than ORCA_CLI_COMMAND, the command re-runs once through the named launcher with ORCA_CLI_REEXEC=1 and exits with its status; both variables are consumed so no child inherits them. Dev launchers export no self on purpose, WSL and SSH names never qualify, and a launcher that cannot start leaves the command to run here. The Windows launcher no longer rewrites ORCA_CLI_COMMAND; the legacy ask protocol normalizes its resume command itself. * refactor(orchestration): declare which flag names the caller on each spec and refuse at the CLI entry Each handler hand-classified its --from/--terminal as the caller or a target, and the refusal of a conflicting caller flag ran inside the caller resolver plus two standalone calls for --run listings, so a new verb that read its flag raw would pass a sibling's handle to a pre-session host. Specs now declare identityFlagRoles, the CLI entry refuses a conflicting caller flag once from the spec, the resolver only applies the id-wins rule, and a test fails any orchestration verb that accepts --from or --terminal without classifying it. * perf(cli): keep the session caller check off the actor codec's module graph The check runs at the CLI entry for every command, and the actor codec pulls zod through the session record. Compare the session's own spellings as plain strings instead. * refactor(cli): spell a session's address from the one prefix constant, off the codec's module graph The Orca session address prefix moves to a leaf module with no imports, re-exported by the address codec, so the CLI entry check derives `session:<id>` from that constant instead of re-typing it and still stays off the codec's zod graph. Prose and test names say caller or Orca session id, not actor. * refactor(orchestration): drop the session id's terminal-view spawn now that the handoff is gone The terminal handoff was removed, so no terminal is ever a structured session: - delete the terminal-view identity env and its WSL passthrough, and their tests; - strip the session caller keys from every terminal's env unconditionally; - the CLI's own-address spelling moves beside the injected id in src/shared, with a test pinning it to the address the host's party resolver gives that session. * fix(terminal): run the Codex launch preflight through the CLI the terminal names Packaged Linux names the userData shim in ORCA_CLI_COMMAND, while the preflight ran the bundled launcher behind it. The CLI saw a different launcher and handed the preflight off to the shim, booting Electron twice before every codex launch. * revert(terminal): keep terminals on main's ORCA_CLI_COMMAND and Codex preflight Only a structured session needs an absolute ORCA_CLI_COMMAND; local terminals go back to naming none (WSL keeps its guest command), and the Codex launch preflight goes back to the bundled launcher. The CLI handoff is scoped to sessions, so a terminal's preflight can no longer be handed off and start Electron twice. This reverts commit d2cefb6c03 and commit dd2853a5a9. * fix(cli): hand off to the session's CLI only inside a structured session The handoff ran whenever an Orca launcher's ORCA_CLI_SELF differed from an absolute ORCA_CLI_COMMAND, so any process with both - a terminal, a script - ran another install's CLI instead of the one invoked: a beta's --version lied, and an AppImage command from a terminal that outlived its Orca failed. It now requires the injected session id, the identity it exists to deliver. The launcher variables are still consumed in every process. * fix(cli): name the packaged Windows command after the handoff decision The launcher stopped writing orca/orca-ide over ORCA_CLI_COMMAND so the handoff could see a session's absolute launcher, which also changed what every Windows terminal's CLI read. The CLI entry now applies the launcher's rule itself once the handoff is decided, so terminals and the legacy ask resume command see exactly what they saw before, and the resume-command reader goes back to its original form. * refactor(cli): decide the session handoff from the CLI's own entry, not a launcher export Every packaged launcher, shim and dispatcher exported ORCA_CLI_SELF so the CLI could tell which launcher ran it, and compared that with the session's ORCA_CLI_COMMAND. Two launchers of the same app are different files, so a session that reached its own app through a global orca-ide on Linux still handed off and started Electron twice, and the export rode artifacts every terminal uses. A structured session now also names the JS entry its launcher runs (ORCA_SESSION_CLI_ENTRY), and the CLI compares its own argv entry with it: any launcher of the same app stays, another install hands off. The launcher scripts, Linux shim and dispatcher go back to main; the Windows launcher keeps only leaving ORCA_CLI_COMMAND for the CLI to name after the handoff decision. * refactor(cli): drop the session CLI handoff; the pinned instance and injected id already bind any current CLI Every current Orca CLI dials the instance ORCA_USER_DATA_PATH names and sends the injected session id in the orchestration envelope, so a bare `orca` that reaches another install's current CLI already acts as the session. An older CLI has no handoff code and refuses on the marker.

Brennan Benson	993183afd7	fix(terminal): every explicit terminal close commits through one main transaction (#22929) ... * fix(terminal): every explicit terminal close commits through one main transaction A renderer save cannot shrink terminal membership once main owns a repo's topology, so desktop tab and pane closes, CLI split-pane closes and mobile split-pane closes only became durable when the killed process's exit retired the surface. A close whose kill failed or threw, or whose exit was never certified, came back after a reload. Every close now reaches closeTerminalSurface: the renderer sends an explicit intent for user and cleanup closes, the CLI and mobile split-pane closes commit the pane after their stop, and the headless and relayed mobile closes reuse the same commit. A failed flush keeps the in-memory removal and no longer cancels the kill. Exit retirement is unchanged. * fix(terminal): tell the desktop renderer to drop a split pane main closed A CLI or mobile close of one pane in a split commits the pane in main, but the desktop kept showing it until reload when no exit arrived to remove it. The close now sends a leaf-addressed notice: a mounted pane closes by leaf id, and a parked tab collapses its stored layout. Addressing by leaf makes the notice and the renderer's exit handling no-ops after each other, which replaces the numeric pane-id notice that could close the whole tab when the exit won. * fix(terminal): a pane close never widens into a whole-tab close A leaf-addressed close fell through to the whole-tab close whenever main's layout no longer held that leaf as one of several. Main's exit handling retires an exited split pane from the saved layout, so closing that pane afterwards (the exited-pane overlay's Close, or a CLI close whose stop delivers the exit first) removed the whole tab, live sibling included, and the next renderer save could not restore it. A pane close is now a no-op unless its leaf is in a multi-pane layout. Also updates two mobile split-close assertions to expect the leaf-addressed notice, and adds a test that a relayed mobile close of a renderer-listed tab still reaches the renderer's pin guard. * test(terminal): cover the PTY-handle branch of a CLI split-pane close The existing CLI split test resolves its handle through the renderer graph, so the branch that closes a runtime-owned pane by its PTY handle had no test failing without its commit. * fix(terminal): a CLI pane close with an unconfirmed stop closes only that pane `orca terminal close <handle>` on one pane of a split used to close the whole tab, live sibling included, whenever that pane's stop could not be confirmed (for example an unreachable SSH host). An unconfirmed stop is unverifiable, not a reason to drop siblings: the close now commits only that leaf, tells the renderer to drop that leaf, and leaves the owed kill to the controller's existing SSH pending-kill path. On a host where no renderer lists the tab, main now also removes the closed pane from the paired-client snapshot (with its retirement proof), since no exit may arrive to do it. * refactor(terminal): one resolver decides whether a pane close becomes a tab close Every explicit close now states its target as `{kind:'tab'}` or `{kind:'pane', leafId}`; no optional leaf id silently means the whole tab. Main resolves a close it started in exactly one place, reading the copy of the tab's panes its layout owner holds (the renderer-published layout for tabs the desktop renderer lists, main's session layout otherwise). Only `last-pane` escalates, through the existing tab path so the renderer's pin guard still runs; an unknown pane never widens. - The CLI and phone paths drop their per-site sibling counts for the resolver. - The notifier splits into a tab-only close and a leaf-addressed pane close. - The headless tab closer takes a parent tab id, so a pane row cannot reach it. - A phone close of one pane on a host with no desktop window now stops and closes only that pane. - A phone close of one pane with no live process record closes that pane, not its tab. * fix(cli): an unverifiable stop says the close happened `orca terminal close` still exits 1 when the process stop cannot be verified, but its message now says the terminal was closed and names the host's reason, instead of "close failed". It promises that the kill retries on reconnect only when the SSH relay itself never answered the stop, the one case a recorded kill order backs. * fix(terminal): a phone pane close commits even when its kill fails A paired client's close of one pane threw `terminal_close_failed` before committing anything when the controller reported the kill failed, so the pane stayed. The kill is now best-effort, as it is for a whole-tab close: the pane's removal always commits and the failure stays on the PTY's liveness verdict. * fix(terminal): a pane close widens only when a copy shows it is the last pane The close resolver read an owner copy that records no panes as "the tab has one pane", so a CLI close of one pane of a split, addressed while the renderer listed the tab before publishing its panes, closed the whole tab. Every copy now counts only if it records at least one pane, read in the owner's order with the published rows as the last fallback, and a pane close widens only when a copy lists that pane as the tab's only one. An unsplit tab whose saved layout predates its pane still closes: its published row names the pane. * fix(cli): promise a kill retry only when the host recorded the kill The close receipt inferred "the kill retries when the host reconnects" from the stop reason's text, which a new transport message or a reworded error would silently break. An explicit close now records the replayable kill order when its stop goes unconfirmed, before sending the follow-up kill (whose own failure is recorded only once its RPC settles), and reports that on the receipt as an optional `pendingKillRecorded`. The CLI promises the retry only from that field, so an older host, which never sends it, gets no promise. * test(pty): justify the controller cast the recorded-stop tests extend * fix(terminal): parse the close target with typed narrowing The low-evidence lint gate rejects Reflect.get and broad object parameters, which failed static analysis. Narrow with 'in' checks instead and cover the boundary parser's accept and reject cases. * fix(terminal): a desktop tab close is not refused by a split that bound while it waited The renderer has already removed and killed a tab it closes, so its close intent now skips the owner fence phone and CLI closes use. Before, a split pane whose binding was admitted between the close request and its durable write made main refuse the close, and the tab came back on the next launch whenever its processes did not exit. * chore(terminal): note that closedByLayoutOwner goes away once main owns the terminal layout * test(terminal): reload the close-intent fixture through the SQLite profile store Main now requires a SQLite profile-state authority for a writable Store, so the save-and-reload close tests build and reopen their store through the shared SQLite test harness.	2026-09-27 15:29:22 -07:00
Neil	17690e6b9a	style: settle oxfmt 0.70 drift and stop formatting vendored licences (#23377) ... The oxfmt 0.65 -> 0.70 bump landed without a repo-wide reformat, so 36 files already in the tree no longer matched what the new version emits. Anyone running `pnpm format` picked all of them up alongside their own change. Also excludes `resources/licenses/**`: `oxfmt --write .` was rewriting the vendored PCRE2 licence, turning its `*` redistribution bullets into `-`. Third party licence text has to be reproduced verbatim, so formatting must not touch it.	2026-09-27 01:14:53 -07:00
NeilandClaude	21170c6e22	perf: avoid repeatedly encoding retained VM recipe output (#23048) ... * perf: avoid repeatedly encoding retained VM recipe output * perf: capture retained VM recipe output as raw bytes in the shared byte buffer The previous commit added a third byte-retention buffer to the repo. This replaces it with the one that already existed and removes the remaining encoding work. `runRecipeCommand` no longer calls `setEncoding('utf8')` on the child's stdout and stderr. It keeps the raw `Buffer` chunks and runs one `StringDecoder` per stream to feed the existing string callbacks, which is exactly how `setEncoding` is implemented, so callbacks see the same characters at the same boundaries. With the bytes already in hand the capture encodes nothing: the 4,194,304 bytes the ring still encoded for 4 MiB of output drop to 0, and the UTF-8 continuation trim collapses from one scan per chunk to a single scan when the tail is decoded. Retention is now `GrowingByteBuffer.appendRetainedSuffix`, which had no production consumer. It gained an O(1) head offset, so `discardPrefix` and `retainSuffix` mark bytes dead instead of moving the whole tail and `append` slides or grows only when the head offset runs out of room. Quick Open path accumulation and the SOCKS handshake buffer get that win too. Without the offset the per-chunk memmove costs 12.36 ms for 4 MiB; with it, 0.25 ms against the ring's 0.53 ms and the old per-chunk re-encode's 265.78 ms. Two behaviour notes. Odd capture limits are clamped once at entry instead of carrying a per-chunk coercion path no production caller could reach, so an infinite or NaN cap is now bounded at 1 MiB rather than retaining everything. And malformed UTF-8 yields a different tail: replacement characters no longer inflate the byte count, so a malformed tail keeps more of what the recipe actually wrote. The encoding-budget assertions no longer spy on `Buffer` itself, where any unrelated allocation in the same tick could flip them. They count bytes through the capture's own buffer class and still assert the deterministic oracle: at most 5 MiB moved for 4 MiB of output, exactly 4 MiB appended, 1 MiB decoded, and the stored chunks identical to the Buffers the stream delivered. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(vm-recipe): emit Buffers from the doctor stream doubles Dropping setEncoding('utf8') means stdout and stderr now deliver Buffers, so the hand-rolled EventEmitter doubles emitting strings threw inside the data listener — the capture retained nothing and the exit path never settled. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-26 21:22:13 -07:00

Brennan BensonandClaude	d443320af2	refactor(native-chat): remove the unused terminal handoff (#22783) ... * refactor(native-chat): remove the unused terminal handoff No client ever called agentSession.requestHandoff or mounted the handoff chrome. Delete the handoff coordinator, the terminal-owner runtime, the proof write path and the unmounted UI. Keep agentSession.handoffStatus, which released desktop clients read for worktree activation, and let records an older build left mid handoff reconcile through the ordinary restart and recovery paths. * fix(native-chat): never let the pre-stop snapshot hold a chat's stop Eviction now drains delivered events before quit's resume-offer snapshot. An unbounded wait there sits ahead of the provider stop, so a sink whose journal write stalls kept the child running until the step deadline aborted the eviction. The offer is advisory: bound the drain and stop the child regardless. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(native-chat): drop helpers only the terminal handoff called `claudeAuthEnvCarriedForward`, `isPathWithinDirectory` and `queryWindowsProcessRowsFresh` lost their last caller with the handoff.

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(native-chat): keep the owner-status read behind an in-flight attach The handoff removal dropped the per-session queue from `handoffStatus`, so a read landing mid-start reported the reservation (no owner) instead of the settled chat owner, and shipped desktop clients blocked worktree activation on it. The read is queued again, as it was before the removal. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(terminal): remove the agent-session PTY write gate The gate only refused a write when a PTY had been bound to a chat session, and the only code that ever bound one was the terminal handoff this branch removes. With it gone, every admit/readmit returned "admitted" unconditionally, so the checks on the renderer write path, the runtime controller backstop, terminal.send, agent prompts, preview input and orchestration pointers, the refusal fields on terminal.send and worker-start receipts, the plugin and CLI refusal copy, and the adopted-pane orchestration routing could no longer run. Ordinary writes take the same path in the same order as before. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(native-chat): drop the transcript helpers only the handoff called appendLegacyTranscriptMessages fed the terminal transcript catch-up and proveClaudeTranscriptBranch backed the terminal owner's exit proof. Both lost their last caller with the handoff. Their tests now go through the live entry points instead: the roster bounds through the legacy import, the pinned-read and growth tests through the ancestry replay the history window uses, and the marker rules through the string proof in their own file rather than the session-file resolver's. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(native-chat): stop calling a starting chat "mid-handoff" A send refused because the chat's owner is not settled showed "The session is mid-handoff (<stage>)." in the composer. With the handoff gone, the stages that reach it are a chat that is still starting, or one whose previous agent process has not yet been confirmed stopped. The message now says which of the two it is. The refusal code is unchanged.

Rename the module and its options type. Also drop a mobile allowlist assertion that pinned the removed agentSession.requestHandoff method, which no longer exists to allow. * refactor(native-chat): type the owner-status reply as the host sends it The handoffStatus reply type still listed the terminal handoff's fields and states (terminal placement, host label, proof retry, queued and waiting phases, the to-terminal direction). No host writes them any more and the only client reader parses the reply as unknown, so they described nothing. The reply on the wire is unchanged. * refactor(native-chat): normalize terminal-handoff lease values once at decode Nothing in this build writes a terminal owner (`runtimeKind: 'tui'`) or the handoff's `preparing` / `old-owner-stopped` stages, but the in-memory types still admitted them, so readers across the host kept branches for values no path produces and the compiler could not point at them. The store now validates the on-disk shape, which still accepts those values so an older record is not quarantined, and maps them once while parsing: - `preparing` and `old-owner-stopped` become `recovering` - a `tui` lease becomes `native`; when it records a process it also becomes `conflicted`, the claim every build probes but never stops. A plain native owner would be stopped by restart recovery, here and in older builds. Revisions are taken over the normalized state on both sides of every compare, and the mapped record reaches disk with the store's first transaction, the same way the tab-id backfill does. The in-memory types narrow to what this build writes, and the branches that existed only for the removed values go. Structured-worker identity keeps its verdict for a former terminal owner by refusing a conflicted claim rather than a non-native kind. * refactor(native-chat): stop threading the owner kind through a reservation A reservation only ever names a native owner now, so the request no longer carries a kind and the reserved lease records `native` directly. The attach params keep `runtimeKind`: agentSession.ensure and create accept it, and the operation fingerprint stored in the ledger covers it. * test(native-chat): pin the legacy-lease rewrite with a transaction that changes nothing else Hiding a tab also committed the visibility index, so the no-op transaction wrote the file even when its open-time revision was wrong. Committing the index first leaves the pending rewrite as the only reason to write. * test(native-chat): give the legacy-lease store test a tab id so the backfill cannot supply its rewrite The seeded record had no surface tab id, so the next open backfilled one and that rewrite alone made the no-op transaction write. The test passed with the legacy-lease rewrite signal removed. * test(worktree-activation): restore the OMP surfaced-agent resume test The handoff removal deleted it alongside the terminal-owner tests, but it covers the surfaced-PTY block that still guards resume, including an agent whose ownership is unknown. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-25 10:17:36 -07:00
Neil	90801e2deb	feat(agents): add first-class ZCode harness (#22464) ... * feat(agents): add first-class ZCode harness Add ZCode (Z.ai's `zcode` CLI) as a supervised Orca agent: managed lifecycle hooks on local, SSH and Windows hosts; status, question and approval reporting; synthetic status titles; session resume; orchestration worker launch options; and desktop + mobile agent-picker registration. Written against the newly open-sourced `zai-org/ZCode` (agent CLI 0.16.9), not against a remembered screen: - ZCode's hook runner writes a Claude-compatible stdin alias set, so it routes through the existing Claude-compatible vendor path while keeping its own identity in the sidebar. - `PermissionRequest` fires only once the approval card is on screen and racing the user's answer, so it is proof the pane is blocked, not an auto-approval. - ZCode's clarification tool is literally `AskUserQuestion` with Claude's questions/options shape, so Orca's question card renders it unchanged. - ZCode's `hooks.enabled` defaults to false, which is why configured hooks were reported as never firing; the installer sets it. - ZCode renames its own process to `zcode-cli`, so the expected foreground process cannot be the launch command or dispatch refuses the pane. - ZCode emits no OSC title in any state and repaints its ASCII banner forever, so readiness comes from Orca's synthetic hook title and launch drafts wait on the composer box rather than on a quiet render window. Three files crossed their max-lines limit, so each is split along a real seam: command-line entrypoint parsing out of agent process recognition, skill classification out of skill root discovery, and registry coverage out of the remote hook installer tests. Refs #10564 * fix(zcode): drop the session-option catalog and pin the orchestration contract ZCode's CLI exposes no `--model` flag at all, and the session-option launch path refuses to apply any option until a model id is chosen. A catalog therefore could not deliver `--mode` per worker, and would have accepted `--model` only to drop it silently. Take opencode's position instead: no catalog, so `worker-start --model` is refused with a clear message and ZCode launches with the model from its own config. `--mode` stays reachable through agent args, which is also how the yolo default is applied. Add a contract test covering the parts that make ZCode a usable worker: dispatchable foreground process, stdin prompt delivery, the prompt staying out of the launch command, and the composer-gated draft paste. * refactor(zcode): reuse shared helpers and cut the harness down No behaviour change; every ZCode test still passes. - Use installer-utils' own `hookDefinitionHasManagedCommand` instead of re-walking a hook definition by hand, which also drops a local string reader. - Share one `readZCodeEventMap` instead of keeping the same narrowing in both hook-settings and hook-config-json. - Collapse five identical error returns into one `zcodeHookError` builder, and return early from the status branches instead of assigning through `let`. - Split the event-to-status decision out of `normalizeZCodeEvent` into a pure `readZCodeTurn`, so the normalizer reads as decide-then-build and stops computing the tool name for events that never look at it. - Take a script file name in `readManagedZCodeHookEvents` like its siblings, which removes a `Parameters<typeof …>` indirection at the call site. - Drop the unused `ZCodeHookEvent` export and inline a single-use path helper. - Correct a stale comment: ZCode's loader is a strict `JSON.parse`, so the in-place edit preserves key order and indentation, not comments. * fix(zcode): address review — keep unmanaged event keys, correct comment, de-dupe README - `removeZCodeManagedHooks` deleted any event key whose list ended up empty, so an unrelated `"Notification": []` the user wrote was removed as collateral whenever a managed hook elsewhere made the write happen. Only touch an event Orca actually owned something in; covered by a new regression test. - The `isNewTurnEvent` comment claimed UserPromptSubmit was ZCode's only turn boundary while the expression below it also returned true for SessionStart. Say what the code does: SessionStart lands the idle boundary, UserPromptSubmit is the turn boundary (the Codex/Claude shape). - ZCode appeared twice in the README's single agent-badge block; keep the local-icon entry the link checker validates and drop the favicon duplicate. * docs(zcode): call out that the desktop bundle's CLI cannot open a session From live testing on #22464: pointing `zcode` at the desktop app's bundled `glm/zcode.cjs` installs Orca's hooks fine but then fails with `Cannot find package '@zcode/tui'`, so the pane never opens a session. The symptom reads as a broken harness when the CLI simply has no TUI. Say which build to use and how to check before reporting a problem. Reported-by: JWu527	2026-09-25 02:17:51 -07:00
Brennan Benson	800d33e5c9	feat: name runtime machines (#22094) ... * feat: name runtime machines * fix: preserve pairing address optionality * fix(cli): keep host and environment listings local Listing paired servers read each one's machine name by dialing it, so both listings made a network round trip per server and waited out a timeout on any that were offline. They answer from this machine's own pairing store; `orca host name --environment <name>` reads one server's name. * fix(settings): caption the machine name paired devices actually receive The caption read the runtime's published name once, when the pane opened, so saving an override left it naming the old computer while phones already showed the new one. It now re-reads whenever the saved override changes; the settings write lands in the main process before the store publishes it, so that read already sees the new name. The name is interpolated rather than baked into the fallback, and the caption, label and placeholder are in the English catalog. * refactor(settings): normalize the machine name in one place The trim and length rules for `machineName` were spelled out separately at the renderer IPC (trim + 255), the settings load path (trim only, no cap), the RPC schema (zod trim + 255) and the runtime reader (trim). A hand-edited or legacy profile could therefore load a longer name than any writer accepts. `src/shared/machine-name.ts` now owns `MACHINE_NAME_MAX_LENGTH` and `normalizeMachineName`, and every writer and the load path use it. The RPC schema keeps rejecting over-long names but derives its cap from the constant, and the runtime settings controller normalizes an RPC write before storing it. * fix(runtime): detect the machine name once and label handoffs with it Every runtime constructed in a process (the app, plus each one a test builds) ran its own `scutil` lookup. The friendly name is a property of the host, so the lookup is now a single shared promise; construction still never blocks on it, and a rejected lookup can no longer surface as an unhandled rejection. The structured-chat handoff banner ("Agent is open in terminal on X") named this host with the bare `os.hostname()` while paired devices saw the published name. The transport now reads the same `RuntimeMachineName`, through a getter so a rename in Settings is reflected without rebuilding the transport. * fix(cli): print the name the runtime publishes and keep its envelope `orca host name --name X` printed `undefined`: `settings.update` replies with `{ settings }`, but the handler read a bare `machineName` off the reply, and the test fixture mirrored the wrong shape so it passed. After a write the command now re-reads `status.get` and prints what the runtime publishes, so a blank `--name` prints the detected name it returned to rather than an empty string. The read path wrapped a possibly routed answer in a local envelope, stamping `_meta.runtimeId: "local"` on a reply from another server. It now returns the `status.get` envelope itself, and an unreachable runtime is reported as the usual error instead of an invented "unknown" name. `environment list` had gained machine-name and platform columns that no caller populated, so every row printed "platform unknown"; the columns are removed. * refactor(settings): give the machine name field its own component The caption under the field re-read runtime status every time the saved value changed, relying on a comment about write ordering to show the new name. A saved override already is what paired devices see, so the hook now derives the caption from it and asks the runtime only for the detected name; a stale status read can no longer show the previous name. `MobileMachineNameField` owns the store read, the published-name hook and the debounced input, so `MobilePairingSetupSection` returns to its prop shape and the pass-through `MobilePanePairingOutput` wrapper is gone. Paired-device revocation moves into `useMobilePairedDeviceRevocation`, which keeps `MobilePane` within its line budget with an extraction that carries behavior. The web client mounts this pane too, but its settings store kept the name locally where nothing published it. `machineName` now rides the existing runtime-backed settings sync so the field renames the paired runtime. * refactor(settings): normalize the machine name at the store boundary Every writer (desktop IPC, web RPC, CLI) reaches the store through updateSettings, which already normalizes the other free-text settings there. Trim and bound the machine name in that one place instead of at two upstream edges, so a future main-process writer is covered too. * test(settings): pin machine-name routing and detection, and make the field searchable The shared machine-name lookup test spawned the real `scutil` twice and compared the answers, so a slow runner could time one spawn out to the hostname and fail. It now mocks the subprocess, proves the hostname answers until the one shared lookup lands, and that a second runtime does not spawn again. `host name` is no longer pinned local, but only the explicit `--environment` route was covered; an ambient `ORCA_ENVIRONMENT` now has its own test so the pin cannot silently grow back. The Machine name field is added to the Mobile pane's search catalog at the tail, keeping every existing row's tie-break index. * fix(runtime): wait for the machine-name lookup before publishing status A status read answered in the first few milliseconds after launch published the bare hostname because the friendly-name lookup had not landed yet, and a caption fetched in that window never corrected itself. RuntimeMachineName now exposes the settled lookup as a promise, and both status publishers (the status.get RPC and the desktop runtime:getStatus IPC) await it before reading. Construction, listen, and every other method stay unblocked; the worst case is one wait of at most a second on the first read. * fix(cli): refuse to rename a runtime that does not publish a machine name An older Orca runtime rejects the unknown settings field with a bare invalid_params, so 'orca host name --name' routed at one failed with no explanation. The runtime that does not publish machineName on status cannot store one either, so the CLI reads status first and refuses with incompatible_runtime and a message that says to update that host, before writing anything. * fix(ipc): introduce this desktop to remote hosts by its machine name When this desktop connected to a remote workspace host it announced itself under a hostname captured once at module load, so a renamed machine kept its old name on every other device's connected-clients list. The client name is now read at send time from the runtime's machine name (the configured override, else the detected one), passed in where the remote workspace handlers are registered, so a rename reaches the next presence frame without a relaunch. * fix(runtime): keep the machine-name lookup under the status probe budget Status publishers now wait for the one-time name lookup, and `orca status` probes them with a one-second budget. scutil answers in milliseconds, so a half-second cap keeps a stalled lookup from making a healthy runtime read as "starting" while still preferring the friendly name. * refactor(web): drop the unreachable machine-name write path The Mobile settings section is desktop-only, so the paired web client can never render the field. Forwarding the name through the web settings sync was dead code, and against an older host the strict update contract would have rejected it while the local mirror kept the value. Remove it until a web surface exists. * chore(i18n): translate the machine-name strings and document paired-server rows Add the Machine name field and its Settings search entry to the five non-English catalogs, explain in the host list spec why paired-server rows report an unknown platform, and drop a stale timeout figure from a test comment. * refactor(settings): make the machine name a machine-wide setting with a General home The name other devices and hosts list this computer under is not a mobile setting. Rename MobileMachineNameField to MachineNameField, give it a per-mount id, and put its primary home in Settings > General under "This computer". The Mobile pane keeps the same field. One shared search entry feeds General, the Mobile pane, and the copy now says "other devices and hosts" in all six locales. The web client has no machine of its own to name and its settings mirror cannot persist one, so the field renders nothing there and General omits the section. * feat(mobile): name this computer in the Orca Mobile pairing step The "Pair this computer" step now shows the same machine name field above the connection choice and code, so a user pairing a phone from the sidebar page can name the computer right there. * feat(settings): name this host when sharing it with other devices Share this host produces the access link other devices use to reach this machine, so it mounts the machine name field first. The pane's search entry takes the shared machine-name keywords so a search lands there. * feat(sidebar): name this desktop when adding a remote host This desktop introduces itself to a new SSH host or remote server under its machine name, so the Add Remote Host dialog mounts the field once, between the header and the host fields, in both modes. Submit logic is unchanged. * feat(settings): name this computer in the SSH pane add form The SSH pane's add form mounts the machine name field above the host fields. Editing a saved host leaves it out; that host already met this computer. * fix(mobile): drop the empty machine-name grid row on the web client The pairing step wrapped MachineNameField in its own grid-area div. On the web client the field renders nothing, so the wrapper left an empty row and an extra row gap between the copy and the connection options. The field now takes a className for its root, so the grid slot disappears with it. * fix(settings): let Enter in the machine name field submit its form like sibling inputs The field intercepted Enter to blur and commit instead of submitting the enclosing SSH add form. The draft is already flushed on blur and on unmount, and the name is read from the store whenever a peer asks, so nothing is lost when the form submits first. Enter now behaves like the neighbouring inputs; the test proves the submit fires and the name still commits when the form closes. * fix(mobile): keep the machine name inside the pairing copy cell A dedicated grid row stayed in the template on the web client, where the field renders nothing, adding an empty track and a second row gap between the copy and the connection options. The field now sits at the end of the copy cell with the same 18px rhythm, so an absent field leaves nothing behind. * fix(runtime): retry a failed machine-name lookup instead of latching the hostname On a loaded Mac the scutil lookup missed its 500 ms cap during app boot, and because the fallback was memoized for the process, every status read and the Settings caption showed the bare hostname for the rest of the session. The lookup now gets a 5 s timeout, a failed attempt (timeout, spawn error, non-zero exit, empty output) clears the shared memo so a later ready() retries after a 30 s interval, and status publishers wait only up to a 750 ms publish budget before answering with what read() has now. A friendly name and the non-darwin hostname stay final. * refactor(settings): show the machine name only where other devices join this computer The Add Remote Host dialog, the SSH pane add form, and General all describe another machine, so a field about this computer's own name read as a third kind of label there. The field now mounts only where other devices pair with or connect to this computer: the Mobile pane, the Orca Mobile pairing step, and Remote Servers > Share this host.	2026-09-23 17:30:14 -07:00
Neil	52a1e2875b	feat(orchestration): accept Muse model and effort for supervised workers (#22383) ... * feat(orchestration): accept Muse model and effort for supervised workers `worker-start --agent muse` already launched, but `--model` was refused because Muse had no session-option catalog. Add one that maps worker preferences to `muse --model <id>` and `--reasoning-effort <level>`; it seeds no models, so native-chat surfaces show no picker. opencode stays without `--model`: the opencode 2 TUI (now shipped as `opencode`) rejects the flag, so the refusal now tells callers to rely on the agent's own config. Help, skill guide, and docs list valid `--agent` ids and the agents that accept `--model`.

Jinwoo Hongandlifeodyssey	9af6a3d798	fix(cli): report a denied runtime connection instead of a dead Orca (#22341) ... * fix(cli): report a denied runtime connection instead of a dead Orca Inside Codex's macOS Seatbelt sandbox, connect() on the runtime socket fails with EPERM. The CLI dropped the errno and reported "Could not connect ... Restart Orca", appended "Orca is not running. Run 'orca open' first.", and `orca status` answered ok:true with `starting` (its pid probe also gets EPERM). An agent following that advice restarts a healthy app, which cannot help. EPERM/EACCES on the metadata read or the socket/pipe connect now fails with a CLI-local `runtime_access_denied` error: ok:false, non-zero exit, operation/systemCode/processState:"unverifiable"/retryable:false and nextSteps that say to re-run with escalated permissions and not restart. CODEX_SANDBOX only picks the wording. `orca open` stops before launching. The status pid probe is unchanged: a refused or missing socket proves the caller reached the endpoint, so a later EPERM probe is another uid and keeps #20098's `starting`. Missing, refused, stale-pid and timeout paths are unchanged. Adapted from the diagnosis and tests in #20487 (and #19605, #13583). Co-authored-by: lifeodyssey <zhenjiazhou0127@outlook.com> * docs(skills): tell agents runtime_access_denied means escalate, not restart The shared CLI-resolution block told every bundled skill to run `orca open` when a command says Orca is not running. Add the counterpart for the new access-denied code so sandboxed agents re-run with escalated permissions instead of launching or restarting Orca. Regenerated stubs and manifest. * refactor(cli): classify only a denied runtime connect, with a leaner error A denied metadata read was never observed under a sandbox, and it turned an unreadable user-data path (the Linux launch contract's root-owned HOME) into runtime_access_denied instead of "Orca is not running". Keep metadata reads as on main and classify only the socket/pipe connect. One helper now maps a socket errno to the error or null; the error data keeps only systemCode and nextSteps. Tests drop cases already pinned by status.test.ts. * fix(cli): give not-running advice when a denied socket belongs to a dead Orca A crashed Orca leaves its metadata and socket file behind, and a sandbox denies the connect with EPERM before the CLI can see ECONNREFUSED. The sandbox still reports ESRCH for a gone pid, so a denied connect now probes the metadata pid and falls through to the ordinary unavailable path when the pid is proven gone. isProcessRunning moves to its own module so transport and status share it. * refactor(cli): inline the runtime_access_denied code like other CLI error codes --------- Co-authored-by: lifeodyssey <zhenjiazhou0127@outlook.com>	2026-09-22 22:46:17 -04:00

3 people	eb92222e7f	feat: support Antigravity as supervised worker (#21705) ... * feat: add supervised Antigravity worker support * fix: address Antigravity worker review findings * fix: stabilize Antigravity readiness detection * fix: allow Antigravity resume footer after readiness * fix(antigravity): make agy reach worker_done as a supervised worker Three defects each blocked `orchestration worker-start --agent antigravity --worktree new-child` at the agent_readiness stage. 1. Readiness never fired. The composer check required the trimmed line to be exactly one character, but agy 1.2.7 launches in accept-edits mode and paints it into the caret row (`> Accept-edits mode: ...`). Widened narrowly to a bare `>` or `> <name> mode:`; matching any `> <text>` would make every menu dialog read as ready, since they all prefix their highlighted row the same way. 2. No trust artifact for agy. Added markAntigravityWorkspaceTrusted, writing ~/.gemini/antigravity-cli/settings.json under `trustedWorkspaces` — verified empirically against agy 1.2.7, and distinct from the Gemini CLI's trustedFolders.json, which agy does not consult. Trust is exact-path and not inherited by subdirectories, so each child worktree needs its own entry. 3. The orchestration path skipped the preset. Orca has two trust dispatch chains: the renderer's preflightAgentTrust and the main-process markLocalWorktreeTrusted. worker-start only takes the second, which matched cursor/copilot/codex and fell through for antigravity, so the trust write never happened while renderer-side tests passed. Verified live end to end: the dispatch settles `succeeded` with worker_done carrying the right task and dispatch ids, and the worktree is appended to agy's settings with sibling keys untouched. Known gap: remote-agent-trust-presets.ts has no antigravity branch. The SSH artifact path is unverified, so agy over SSH still stalls at agent_readiness. Recorded in a comment there rather than guessed at. * fix(antigravity): wire trust preset through preload safely * fix: preserve Antigravity readiness across transcript tails --------- Co-authored-by: Neil <neil@stably.ai> Co-authored-by: LielinaH <lielinah@gmail.com>	2026-09-21 20:22:08 -07:00
Jinwoo Hong	3336933cc8	fix(orchestration): list worker Dispatches newest first and warn when the page truncates (#21523) ... * fix(orchestration): list worker Dispatches newest first and warn when the page truncates `worker-list` paged `ORDER BY d.rowid ASC` with a 100-row cap, so a Run with more than 100 Dispatches answered with its OLDEST 100. The workers a coordinator had just started, and the rows carrying `projection.attention.requiresAction`, were on a page nobody fetched, while `counts` and `page.total` covered the whole Run so the receipt read as complete. One ordering, flipped: the detail query and the terminal-state scan it pages by both order `d.rowid DESC`, and the cursor fence walks down (`d.rowid < anchor`). The snapshot fence is unchanged — `d.rowid <= snapshot` still means "nothing created after the first call". When the page truncates the receipt now carries a `warnings` string, the same shape `worker-output` already uses, alongside `page.hasMore`. Text output keeps its `More: --cursor` line and prints the warning through the block it already had for partial-host errors. Refs STA-7861 * fix(orchestration): make the worker-list truncation warning true on every page The warning said "Showing the N newest of T Dispatches" unconditionally, but `hasMore` is true on every page except the last, so page 2 of a 300-Dispatch Run claimed to be the newest 100 while showing rows 200..101. This PR exists because a receipt read as complete when it was not; that warning shipped a receipt that read as the newest page when it was not. The page count and the ordering are separate facts, so state them separately: "Showing N of T Dispatches, newest first; more are on later pages." True on page one and page N alike, no extra state. The 105-row case only ever reached the last page, where `hasMore` is false, which is why it missed this; a new case walks 6 Dispatches at `--limit 2` so a page that is truncated AND not page one is covered. Also: the `worker-list` --help note and the recovery-and-cleanup reference still described the oldest-first contract; both now say newest first. The snapshot test is renamed to the property it actually proves — under DESC a later insert is unreachable by arithmetic, so what the `d.rowid <= snapshot` fence still earns is pinned `page.total` and `counts`, not row exclusion. The continuation comment says "below the anchor" next to `d.rowid < ?`, and the two SAFETY rationales now say what they are: an unchanged cast the gate flagged because the diff moved inside its span.

Jinwoo Hong	73a58bd21a	feat(session-search): resolve Workspace and Project scope on the host (#21509) ... * refactor(session-search): move the AI Vault project key to shared The host must spell a project key exactly as the client does, so the two sides share one function instead of two copies that can drift. * feat(session-search): add a scope identity to the search request The panel cannot keep translating a project into one path per worktree: a repo with 580 of them exceeds the 64-path cap and the search fails outright. The request now carries the scope's identity instead, and a host acknowledges the scope it resolved so a client can tell a scoped answer from an old host's unscoped one. * feat(session-search): resolve a scope identity on the host that answers Every entry point already funnels into searchSessionService, so the identity becomes paths there once: native, WSL, SSH and relay hosts cannot disagree. A host that does not know the workspace or project answers scope-unknown rather than widening the search to everything it has. * test(session-search): pin how a host resolves a scope identity Covers prior paths, a workspace another now claims, folder workspaces, a custom worktree base path, flat placement where the global root belongs to every project, and the 580-worktree fold the panel's path list could not do. * fix(session-search): type the scope store by what the catalog reads A full Repo/Project/ProjectHostSetup requirement forced test stores to stand up rows the catalog never looks at. * feat(session-search): send the scope identity from the panel Workspace and Project name what to narrow to; All sends nothing. A host that answers a scoped search without acknowledging it is reported as needing an update, and none of its hits are shown, because they are not this scope's. * test(session-search): pin the new-client-against-old-host skew An old host strips the identity and answers with every session it has, and the answer is well-formed. The missing acknowledgement is the only evidence, so the merge drops those hits and names the host instead. * test(session-search): pin the identity and acknowledgement across every entry point IPC, the runtime RPC method, the relay handler and the shared remote client each carry the identity out and the acknowledgement back, and the relay -- which has no repo catalog -- reports the scope rather than widening the search. * fix(session-search): acknowledge the scope on an all-computers merge The merge built its results without the acknowledgement, so the renderer read it as an old host, dropped every hit and asked for an update. That is the default path: the panel defaults to Workspace and the host scope falls back to All. Per-host skew is still reported through `hosts`. Host-resolved paths no longer travel in `filters.scopePaths`. That field is capped at 64 for the clients that write it by hand, and the scanner child re-parses the request with the same schema -- so a project whose worktrees do not share one managed directory failed at 65 paths with "not ready". They ride beside the request now, where no wire cap applies. Managed directories come from buildKnownOrcaWorkspaceLayouts, so a workspace root the user has since moved away from is covered too. A workspace identity is resolved through this host's own worktree registry rather than the directory embedded in the client-supplied id. * test(session-search): follow the service search signature Host-resolved paths are a second argument now, so the call-shape assertions that pinned a one-argument call name it. * fix(session-search): answer consent and readiness before an unknown scope The registry short-circuited an unresolvable scope before current.search ran, and current.search is where disabled and not-ready are decided. A host with indexing off that lacks the project told the user it did not have the workspace, which they cannot act on. The verdict now travels to the service beside the request, and the service answers it after its own checks. * fix(session-search): acknowledge only a scope that resolved An unknown verdict is still a verdict, and it was being acknowledged as if the host had narrowed. The skipped banner also counted only 'searched' as having resolved the scope, so a host that resolved it and came back stale or timed out let the scope lines reappear where they explain nothing. * refactor(session-search): drop the version-mismatch receipt No stable release ships search, so the only hosts that have it and predate `within` are dev and ad hoc builds. The acknowledgement, the needs-update outcome and the copy behind it would be permanent dead weight from the first stable release on. The scope-unknown outcome and the off / not-ready / unknown ordering stay. Also trims this PR's new docblocks to the repo's one-line why rule.	2026-09-18 16:46:31 -04:00
Brennan Benson	a85e580e51	fix(orchestration): stop the sender-terminal refusal recommending another pane's handle (#21097) ... * fix(orchestration): stop the sender-terminal refusal recommending another pane's handle The structured-session guard told callers to pass `--from <terminal-handle>`, but the explicit-flag branch returns before that guard runs — so following the advice succeeds, against a handle that necessarily belongs to a different pane, and the next `check` consumes that pane's unread mail. Both refusals now say what is actually true: no handle names a structured chat session, and a caller that does have one should pass its own. Also pins ORCA_STRUCTURED_SESSION in the gate CLI test, which until now decided which refusal it exercised from ambient environment. * fix(orchestration): route the lifecycle-send refusal to the structured message `orchestration send --type worker_done|heartbeat` refuses in the send handler before `resolveOrchestrationTerminalHandle` runs, so the structured guard never saw the case a structured session hits most: the canonical worker lifecycle report. That caller was still told to pass `--from` with "your own terminal's handle" — which it does not have, so any handle it picked would belong to another pane. `throwNoActiveSenderTerminal` now derives which refusal fits instead of each call site deciding: marker set AND no handle means no identity exists, so the structured refusal applies. A stale `ORCA_TERMINAL_HANDLE` is deliberately excluded — that caller does have an identity, it just went stale, and keeps the advice to re-run under a live one. Also corrects the guidance itself (`--agent` is a `worktree create` flag; `terminal create` has no such flag), aligns the SSH fallback wording with its local twin, and pins ORCA_STRUCTURED_SESSION in the send tests, which until now decided which refusal they exercised from ambient environment.	2026-09-18 08:15:12 -07:00

Brennan Benson	aee98ccaa0	fix(browser): make the browser identity one process-wide choice (#13822) (#20767) ... * feat(browser): process-wide browser identity, chosen before ready Electron resolves worker identity from a single process-global default, so two coherent identities cannot coexist in one process. This makes clean/native one app-wide decision read before `ready`, instead of a per-profile one that leaves documents on one identity and every worker request on the other. Both identities are load-bearing, measured across four origins at five reps: the cleaned identity clears an embedded Turnstile widget and WhatsApp's browser check where native is refused; native clears a full-page Cloudflare interstitial that the cleaned identity never clears. Base commit only: removing the per-profile field, its settings surface, and the migration notice follow. * test(browser): cover cross-context UA wire identity * refactor(browser): make user agent identity app-wide * test(browser): repair process identity wire fixture * Fix browser identity startup migration failures * WIP: rescue in-flight reduced-design work from a dead worker Worker ctx_cb5b1262d7fe stopped ~2h ago mid-implementation (last heartbeat 2026-09-14T22:48:06Z) leaving this uncommitted. Committed unverified to make it recoverable; not reviewed, not necessarily green. * fix(browser): repair the rescued identity work so it typechecks Finishes the interrupted edits in 7db9c54b54: - browser-user-agent-migration-notice.ts was truncated mid-write; close the then() callback so the file parses. - Register browser.identity.get/set in the generated RPC params catalog so the params type-parity gate is satisfied. - Retire the persistence assertions for the superseded design: a migratedNativeProfileIds event map, a notice-acknowledgement clear, and a global persistence-failure accessor. Legacy userAgentMode bytes are retained now, so these assert retention plus a failed notice write still hydrating. - The in-memory fs fixture threw a codeless ENOENT, which reads as "unreadable" rather than "missing" and made every identity write refuse. Carry the code. - Use the segmented control's per-option disabled rather than adding a control-level prop it does not have. * refactor(browser): make the identity store the only writer The rescued work already serialized identity writes, but the writer lived beside the pre-ready reader, so nothing stopped a second caller from writing the record directly -- which is the shape of the bug this change set removes. browser-identity-mode-record.ts is now read-only: record shape, path, parsing and the pre-ready synchronous read. browser-identity-mode-store.ts owns every mutation behind one queue, holds the snapshot and listeners, and derives restartRequired from appliedMode vs configuredMode rather than storing it. Consumers move to the store. The two identity RPC methods also move out of browser-core.ts into browser-identity-rpc.ts: they read and write this host's own process identity rather than driving a page, and browser-core.ts was over its line cap. The generated params catalog is byte-identical. * feat(browser): make resetting unhealthy identity data explicit and lossless A corrupt or newer-version record left the identity unchangeable with no way out. An explicit reset now copies the old bytes verbatim to a fresh unique path before publishing a replacement, and refuses the whole operation if that backup cannot be written -- so the reset can never be the thing that loses the data. Nothing resets automatically. Future-version data says update Orca rather than reporting corruption. Reset is opt-in via browser.identity.set and orca browser identity set --reset. ProfileCreate and BrowserIdentitySet move to browser-identity-params.ts: both carry the per-profile to app-wide identity move, and browser-params.ts was over its line cap. Also registers browser as a top-level CLI name so the Windows launch redirect covers it -- without it orca browser identity get boots the GUI and exits silently there -- and adds the canonical browser identity show alias the CLI vocabulary policy requires. * feat(browser): advertise the identity capability only where it exists browser.identity.v1 was static, so every host claimed it including one that never initialized the identity store, where both methods can only throw. It now follows the browser.headless.v1 precedent and is pushed at status time when the store is actually initialized. Also covers the retired profileCreate userAgentMode field at the dispatcher rather than only at the schema, so an older client provably gets the changed-semantics rejection over the wire instead of a success with the field quietly dropped. * refactor(browser): delete the identity write queue and guard backup uniqueness The queue could not be falsified by any test: writeRecord is synchronous end to end, so two calls cannot interleave and removing serialization entirely left every store test green. Carrying machinery whose guard is unconstructible is what the design review told us to cut, so it is gone. If durable writes ever become async, serialization comes back with the change that makes it testable. The test that claimed to prove serialization now states what it actually pins -- the later of two selections is the one that survives -- and the module doc no longer claims a queue that is not there. Adds the guard that was missing on reset: two resets across separate launches must produce two distinct backups, each holding its own original bytes. Verified discriminating -- a fixed backup filename fails it. * test(browser): guard the identity capability and harden two weak assertions Pins the mixed-version guarantee that had no test: browser.identity.v1 is advertised when the identity store is initialized and absent when it is not. Verified discriminating -- advertising it unconditionally fails the test. The profileCreate rejection test asserted ok:false against a runtime with no browserProfileCreate, so that assertion passed even when the retired field was accepted. It now stubs a working runtime method, making ok:false load-bearing, and asserts the runtime is never reached. Removes the persistence fixture's dead failIdentityWrite branch on writeFileAtomically: nothing on that path calls it, so it implied a second write mechanism that does not exist. Failure is injected through node:fs, which is what the identity write actually uses. * test(browser): classify the identity channels on the preview seam The channel split is asserted total, so adding browser:identity:get/set left it short by two. They manage the host's own process-wide user-agent choice rather than acting on a guest the reader is looking at, so they sit with the session and profile channels, not the preview tools. * test(browser): audit the identity rig's global-fetch call sites The wire probe server and CDP collector arrived with the cross-context coverage and were never added to the audit list. The collector's two real call sites are safe: the poll cancels its unread body and the version probe consumes it through response.json(). Every hit in the probe server is inside an injected page or worker script source string, not a call this process makes. * fix(browser): strip an app name that contains a space app.setName decides the app token in the user agent, and dev sets "Orca Dev". The cleaner matched a single whitespace-delimited token, which cannot span that space, so the replace failed outright and every dev build presented "Orca Dev/1.4.203" on the wire — the exact token class that gets transplanted sessions revoked. Anchoring on the engine comment and consuming lazily up to Chrome/ removes any number of app tokens. A user agent without that comment is returned unchanged rather than mangled, because over-stripping is worse than under-stripping. The function had no unit test at all; it was only exercised through the real-Electron wire tests, which run with a single-token fixture name. That is why this survived. * fix(browser): anchor the cleaner on the gap before Chrome/ My first attempt anchored on the engine comment, which broke a startup fixture whose platform comment is "(Test)" with no "(KHTML, like Gecko)" at all — the app token survived and the ordering test went red. Anchoring on the nearest ")" before Chrome/ and consuming only non-")" tokens keeps the match inside that gap, so it handles a multi-word app name, a synthetic platform comment, and an already-clean identity alike. A user agent with no such gap is still returned unchanged. The fixture shape is now a test case, since it is what caught the first attempt. * test(browser): repair the cleaner's case table A missing comma between two it.each elements was reformatted into an index expression, collapsing the table so every case ran with undefined input. * test(browser): make a CI-only capture failure diagnosable This probe passes locally and fails on CI with an empty receipt set, an empty CDP diagnostic list, and a fixture that still exits 0 — so the assertion message carried nothing usable. Thread the fixture's own result and stderr into the capture assertion so the next run says what the fixture actually did. * fix(browser): let an explicit choice retire the migration notice for good The retired per-profile userAgentMode bytes are retained on disk by design, so every launch rediscovers them and re-arms the notice — including the launch right after the user answers it, and every launch after that. Documented as one-time, it was permanent. The record already carries explicitSelection, which is exactly the fact that should end the notice. Gate the mark at the single writer rather than deleting the legacy key, so the retained bytes stay untouched and disk never claims a notice is pending beside a choice the user already made. The new test pushed the persistence suite past max-lines, so the in-memory fs and module mocks move to a named fixture module and the retired-identity tests move beside them in their own file. * fix(browser): stop reporting an unhydratable profile as a retired choice A profile that fails validation for a reason unrelated to identity — a non-UUID id, a mismatched partition — armed both the notice and its degraded flag. Since hydrateFromPersisted skips such entries silently and nothing ever repairs them, the user got "an old browser identity choice could not be inspected" forever, about a profile that never carried one. Key the notice on the presence of userAgentMode instead, and use validation only to decide whether the choice that was found is inspectable. Refusing to hydrate an entry and finding a retired choice are now separate facts. The old case table asserted the defect for null, 42 and 'broken', so it is replaced by two tables stating the new contract rather than adapted to pass. * fix(browser): stop rewriting worker requests for viewport emulation A worker request carries no webContentsId, so it always took the session-wide branch and picked up the mobile UA if any tab in the session had a mobile preset. That made a single context disagree with itself: a desktop tab's shared worker reported a desktop navigator.userAgent — the per-target CDP override cannot reach a worker — while its fetches left as CriOS. It also leaked across tabs, and closing the emulated tab silently reverted it. On main the divergence was between contexts, each internally coherent. Making one context internally inconsistent is worse by this PR's own standard, so accept that viewport emulation reaches documents only. Workers keep the session identity on the wire, which is the identity they report in JavaScript. That left hasSessionMobileViewportIntent with no reader, so the map it fed and its three accessors go too, rather than leaving a dead latch behind the guard. The electron fixture models this rule in its own header hook, so its hook and both mobile arms are rewritten around the invariant that each context's wire identity equals the identity its own JavaScript reports — not adapted to keep the old path list passing. * test(browser): point the identity tests at keys and writers that exist browserUserAgentMode appears in zero production files and zero commits on main; `git log -S` finds nothing. The retired key is profile.userAgentMode inside browser-session-meta.json. Two tests were built on the invented one. The global-settings test is deleted rather than repointed: no browser identity key has ever lived in global settings, and stripRetiredGlobalSettings strips only three unrelated keys, so the test asserted that an arbitrary unknown key survives an object spread — a fact about the normalizer, not about identity. The ready-phase test asserted on writeFileAtomically while the identity store writes through writeFileDurableSync, so it could not go red for the write it existed to forbid. It now watches the real writer, matched on the record path so an unrelated durable write cannot fail it for the wrong reason, and the invented settings key is gone from the Store mock. Proven by ablation: injecting a byte-identical rewrite of the record into ready composition leaves every snapshot and record assertion green and is caught only by the new assertion, while writeFileAtomically is never called. * fix(browser): let an unavailable process identity reject instead of throwing installBrowserSessionPartitionPolicies returned Promise<void> without being async, and configures the user agent policy before any suspension point. getBrowserProcessUserAgentIdentity throws when the process identity was never initialized, so that throw escaped synchronously past every caller's handler: `void install(...).catch(...)` in the registry, and a bare `void install(...)` in the route policies, which has no handler at all. Bookkeeping must never gate a user action. Session startup would have died on a failure its callers were already written to absorb and report. * docs(browser): scope the meta-store claim about dropped legacy keys The comment said persistMeta drops legacy keys on the next write because the loader no longer carries them. That holds for the top-level userAgent keys it describes, but not for the retired per-profile userAgentMode: it sits inside each BrowserSessionProfile in `profiles`, which is carried through untouched, so those bytes survive every write. Retaining them is deliberate — it is what makes rollback and data-loss machinery unnecessary, and the startup notice keys on their presence — so the comment read as broader cover than it provided, in the one place someone would look before deciding it was safe to strip them. * test(browser): pin the unmapped-webContents path beside an emulated tab A popup carries a webContentsId that maps to no registered tab, so it resolves through the same branch as a worker request that carries none at all. The branch already handled both, but only the absent-id case was covered. * test(browser): make the ordering fixture exhibit a multi-word app name This file sets the dev app name to "Orca Development" and then used a single-token user agent fixture, so it set up the multi-word scenario and used a fixture that could not exhibit it — which is how the multi-word app-name leak got through. The fixture now carries a two-word app token, matching what app.setName produces in dev, and the assertion names both words: a single \S+ match would leave "Orca" on the wire and still pass a one-token check. * test(settings): cover the local branch of the browser identity setting The only existing test covered the remote-host branch. The local branch — load, select, refused write, and reset-required — had none, and that is the path the retired-identity notice sends users down to make the choice that retires it. Covers the selected-mode render, the commit that reports restartRequired, a refused write surfacing its message without showing the mode as changed, and the reset-required state offering no control. * test(browser): run the real registry path in the ready identity pin The test stubbed browser-session-startup and browser-session-registry, which are the one ready-phase path that can write the identity record, so the record content assertion could not fail for the write it existed to forbid. Both are now real. Only the pieces hanging off the identity path are stubbed — partition policies, route sessions, cookie staging, webauthn — so the meta load, the retired-choice inspection, the identity store and the durable write all run for real against temp directories. The canonical path mock moves to persistence/loading-store/user-data-path, which is where the registry reads it; mocking persistence alone left the registry pointed elsewhere. The active profile directory is now a real temp dir, so the seeded browser-session-meta.json is actually found — against the old /test-profile literal the meta load found nothing and the whole exercise would have been vacuous. A third case proves the path is live: with no explicit choice, the same retired profile arms the notice through ready and lands migrationNoticePending on disk. The two authority cases assert the opposite, that an explicit choice leaves the record untouched. initializeBrowserSessionsForApp latches on module state, so each case resets modules and imports ready dynamically. Ablated: disabling the explicitSelection gate turns both authority cases red on the record content assertion while the arming case stays green. * fix(browser): reject an unrecognized identity mode at the IPC door normalizeBrowserUserAgentMode turned any unrecognized value into 'clean', so the IPC door reported success for a mode it had quietly replaced, while the RPC door validates against z.enum(['clean', 'native']) and rejects. One concept answered an unknown value two different ways, and a future mode name was silently downgraded rather than refused. The handler now rejects, which is what the RPC door does and what the renderer already handles — its catch puts the message in the error slot. Returning a result instead would have meant inventing a fourth error code for a case no legitimate caller can reach. normalizeBrowserUserAgentMode had no other consumer, so it goes with the change: leaving a coercion helper called "normalize" in shared/ invites the behaviour straight back in. * fix(settings): name the reset command where identity data is unusable When configuredMode is null the setting says identity data must be reset explicitly and then offers no control, because the reset overwrites data that may belong to a newer Orca. The only escape is the CLI, which the message never named — so it told the user to do something and gave them no way to do it. Copy only: one line naming the command, no control and no destructive action in the UI. The command goes in a new key beside the existing sentence rather than expanding its default, which keeps the already-translated string valid. No en.json entry: this component has no catalog entries for any of its keys, so English resolves from the call-site defaults and adding one only for the new key would be inconsistent with its siblings. * fix(i18n): add the browser identity keys to the localization catalog * fix(i18n): regenerate the runtime-required English catalog * fix(browser): attach nested CDP targets paused before enabling Network An OOPIF or dedicated worker was reached only through Target.targetCreated plus an explicit attachToTarget, which never pauses the target. The frame could issue its subresource fetch before Network.enable took effect, so the capture came back empty and the cross-context assertion failed under CI load. Re-arm auto-attach on each attached session, filtered to nested target types, so an OOPIF or worker arrives waiting for the debugger and its enables are ordered ahead of the resume. Drop the explicit attach, which is now both redundant and the racy path. * fix(settings): localize the browser identity search keywords * fix(browser): await route policy setup * fix(browser): satisfy strict static analysis * test(browser): update live identity fixture API * test(browser): preserve native UA in live probe * fix(browser): close the open review findings on the identity revert - drop a stray JSDoc left over from the removed per-profile setting - leave user agents without a Chromium engine comment byte-identical instead of anchoring the app-token strip on the OS comment and destroying a real engine token - localize the browser identity unavailable error - correct the worker comment: only shared and service worker requests carry no webContentsId, so emulation still reaches dedicated workers - retire the session user agent policy when a profile is deleted * test(browser): model a real Electron fallback in the startup UA fixture The ordering fixture carried no "(KHTML, like Gecko)" engine comment, a shape app.userAgentFallback cannot actually produce. That unfaithfulness was what made the old over-stripping look correct, and it broke once the cleaner started leaving non-Chromium identities alone. Add the engine comment, keeping the two-word "Orca Development" app token so the multi-word leak this test exists to catch is still caught. Both assertions are unchanged.	2026-09-16 10:31:01 -07:00

Neil	13ba649c22	fix(terminal): let a runtime-created Windows terminal BE the requested shell (#20825) ... * fix(terminal): let a runtime-created Windows terminal BE the requested shell `orca terminal create --environment <windows-host> --command 'cmd.exe'` never created a cmd terminal. `--command` is text the provider TYPES into whatever shell it spawned, so the PTY stayed the host's default shell with cmd running inside it. Captured on `awin`, whose default is Git Bash: $ orca terminal create --environment awin --command 'cmd.exe' --json $ orca terminal send --environment awin --terminal term_10656cf7... \ --text exit --enter $ orca terminal read --environment awin --terminal term_10656cf7... --screen neil@awin MINGW64 ~/orca/orca ((30f820708f...)) $ cmd.exe Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.26200.9445] C:\Users\neil\orca\orca>exit neil@awin MINGW64 ~/orca/orca ((30f820708f...)) $ The handle is alive the whole time and `terminal list` shows one healthy terminal, because the PTY never changed — so the only symptom is that the caller's terminal is now a shell it never asked for, and every later `send` is quoted for the wrong one. On `win-lowspec` (default pwsh) the same create lands cmd inside PowerShell. Root cause ---------- There are two spawn preflights and they are twins: - `src/main/ipc/pty/ipc/spawn-preflight.ts` — renderer/IPC spawns, i.e. a terminal tab opened in the app. - `src/main/ipc/pty/runtime/spawn-preflight.ts` — runtime spawns: the CLI's `terminal.create`, headless `orca serve`, and every paired remote environment. Only the IPC twin read the caller's requested shell. The runtime twin passed a literal `requestedShellOverride: undefined`, so a runtime-created terminal on Windows could only ever be the host default. Everything downstream of that point — `spawn-options`, the daemon, `resolvePtyShellOverride` in the relay, `local-pty-launch-plan` — already honoured `shellOverride`; nothing upstream could supply one. Change ------ - Thread `shellOverride` through the runtime lane: `RuntimePtySpawnArgs` -> runtime `spawn-preflight` -> `RuntimePtyController.spawn` -> `TerminalCreateOptions` -> the `terminal.create` RPC's new `shell` param -> `orca terminal create --shell`. - Thread it through the renderer-backed lane too (`createDesktopTerminal` -> `terminal:requestTabCreate` -> `store.createTab`), so `--shell --focus` is not silently dropped on a local Windows app. - An agent launch quotes its startup command for the shell it will actually run in, so a requested shell now owns the startup-shell family instead of the global `terminalWindowsShell` setting. - Lift the relay's `ALLOWED_WINDOWS_SHELL_OVERRIDES` into `isSupportedWindowsShellOverride` in `src/shared/windows-terminal-shell.ts` (membership unchanged) so the CLI, the zod param schema, and the relay refuse the same names. `--shell` therefore cannot carry a path or a command line into `pty.spawn`; only allowlisted bare shell names pass. - Gate on `TERMINAL_CREATE_SHELL_SELECTION_RUNTIME_CAPABILITY`. An older host strips the unknown `shell` param and answers with a healthy terminal running its default shell — a reply indistinguishable from success — so the CLI refuses before creating anything rather than creating the wrong shell quietly. `--shell` stays Windows-only; macOS and Linux hosts spawn the login shell and the relay drops the value off win32 rather than honouring it half-way. A WSL project runtime still outranks it, unchanged. Tests ----- - `pty-spawn-shell-override-parity.test.ts` pins both preflights against the exact drift that caused this (verified failing with the fix reverted). - `createTerminal` passes `shellOverride` to `ptyController.spawn` with no startup command. - CLI: sends `shell`, refuses a shell the host cannot spawn, and refuses a host without the capability — in both refusals without making the round trip. - Allowlist and `terminal.create` schema accept/refuse cases, including paths and appended arguments. * fix(terminal): refuse a requested shell the execution host cannot apply The first commit made `--shell` reach the spawn, but only a LOCAL win32 execution host applies it: `spawn-options` gates the override on `process.platform === 'win32' && !args.connectionId`. So `--shell cmd.exe` against an SSH-routed worktree, or against a macOS/Linux host, still returned a healthy terminal running that host's default shell — the same indistinguishable-from-success reply the capability gate exists to prevent, one layer down. Refuse instead, before anything spawns. The check sits at the top of `resolveAgentTerminalCreateOptions`, which every create lane funnels through, so neither lane has to remember it; the desktop lane additionally refuses a worktree-less create, which has no execution host to resolve a shell on. An SSH host's platform and installed shells are not visible to this runtime, and a POSIX host has no Windows shell to pick. Neither can honour the request, and saying so is the whole point of the flag. Docs and the CLI spec now say "refused", not "ignored". * fix(terminal): refuse a shell that contradicts the project execution runtime `resolveLocalWindowsTerminalRuntimeOptions` does not merely rank the project's execution runtime above a per-terminal pick -- it REWRITES the pick, in both directions, and says nothing: - a WSL project forces `wsl.exe`, discarding `--shell cmd.exe`; - a Windows-host project discards a WSL name and falls back to `COMSPEC` (`getHostShellForProjectRuntime`), so `--shell wsl.exe` spawns cmd. That is the common case, not an edge: `resolveProjectExecutionRuntime` resolves `windows-host` for every project that is not WSL, while a repo belonging to no project honours `wsl.exe` -- so the same flag behaved differently depending on whether the repo was in a project. Either rewrite returns a healthy terminal running a shell the caller did not ask for, which is the failure `--shell` exists to remove. It also split an agent launch's quoting from the shell that receives it. The previous commit made the startup-shell family follow the REQUESTED shell, so `--shell wsl.exe --command codex` on a Windows-host project typed POSIX-quoted launch args into cmd. Refusing the contradiction removes that case rather than papering over it. Refuse instead, alongside the SSH and non-Windows refusals, from the same `resolveAgentTerminalCreateOptions` seam every create lane funnels through. Also from review: - the allowlist test looped the list against itself; spell the members out. - the runtime spec case claimed to prove the pty's shell when it asserts the controller received the field; name it for what it checks. Reported by an adversarial review of the branch. * fix(terminal): canonicalize --shell and refuse a WSL-path rewrite Review of the --shell create path turned up two ways the terminal could still end up being a shell the caller never asked for -- the exact failure --shell exists to remove. Bare and mixed-case spellings passed the allowlist but reached consumers that exact-match the canonical name: resolveWindowsShellStartupFamily classified `cmd` as the PowerShell family, resolveWindowsShellLaunchArgs fell through to empty shellArgs (no `chcp 65001`, no OSC 133 bootstrap that Windows foreground status depends on), and resolveWindowsGitBashShellPath compares case-sensitively so `Git-Bash` spawned a literal `Git-Bash`. The allowlist is now one canonical-name map and terminal.create canonicalizes on parse, so the spawn path only ever sees `.exe` spellings. `pwsh` and `powershell` stay distinct binaries. A `\\wsl$\<distro>\...` cwd made the providers force wsl.exe regardless of the request, and terminalShellOverrideRefusal only inspected the project runtime -- undefined for a folder workspace with no project. Refuse on the resolved cwd and the workspace path, judging what the PTY actually gets. Also: the capability gate reported an unreachable host as too old rather than unavailable; the SSH CLI shim dropped capabilities from status, so --shell there blamed the host version instead of naming SSH; and --shell had no help entry, rendering bare in `orca terminal create --help`. Adding that entry crossed help.ts's max-lines cap, so the flag table moved to flag-help-text.ts rather than suppressing the rule. Adds a behavioural test for the runtime preflight (the one-line fix was pinned only by a source-text scan), plus coverage for the startup-command quoting family, the no-workspace refusal, and the WSL-path refusal. * fix(build): keep tests out of the RPC params catalog bundle The catalog walk under methods/ already skips *.test.ts, but the contract directory glob took every .ts. terminal-create-shell-param.test.ts is the first test to live there, so the bundle pulled vitest into a CJS build and the generator threw on require(). Same exclusion, same reason.	2026-09-15 16:34:16 -07:00
Neil	981a4821da	fix(cli,relay): stop reading an unsignalable pid as a dead one (+ unverifiable-collapse sweep result) (#20098) ... * fix(cli): stop reporting an unsignalable Orca pid as a stale bootstrap `orca status` falls back to a `kill(pid, 0)` probe when `status.get` cannot be reached, and a bare catch read every refusal as absence. EPERM means the pid exists under another uid -- an Orca reached via ORCA_USER_DATA_PATH, or one started with sudo -- so a live app was reported `running: false`, `pid: null`, `runtime.state: stale_bootstrap`, `graph.state: not_running`. Only ESRCH proves the pid is gone, which is the rule every other liveness probe in the repo already applies (`isProcessAlive` in relay/pty-shell-utils.ts, pack-refs-lock-ownership.ts, runtime-metadata-ownership-watch.ts, and agent-session-process-identity-probe.ts). See docs/reference/ssh-execution-boundary.md. * fix(relay): keep a revived pane whose pid only refuses the liveness probe `revive` gated each serialized pane on a hand-rolled `process.kill(pid, 0)` in a bare try/catch, so any refusal retired the pane. EPERM means the process exists under another uid; only ESRCH is evidence of absence. The file already imports `isProcessAlive`, whose ESRCH-only contract `reapPtyProvenExited` documents 450 lines earlier -- this call site just did not use it. Reuse it rather than keeping a second implementation of the same concept. Malformed pids still skip, as before. See docs/reference/ssh-execution-boundary.md. * fix(lint): clear the casting gate on the pid-probe changes main tightened typescript/consistent-type-assertions to assertionStyle: never, which the rebase brings onto these added lines. The CLI probe narrows instead of casting; the relay test keeps the file's serialize idiom behind a SAFETY-annotated suppression.	2026-09-15 16:01:13 -07:00
Neil	231e805b1e	fix(lint): enable anti-slop/no-shape-in-symbol-names (#20785) ... Flip `anti-slop/no-shape-in-symbol-names` from "off" to "error" and clear every violation under src, config, tests and mobile. What the rule bans ------------------ The case-insensitive substring "shape" in any JS/TS identifier: variables, functions, parameters, types, type parameters, class members, private names, object-literal keys and JSX identifiers. The one exemption is a statically accessed member read owned by another value (`zodObject.shape` is fine), so third-party APIs stay readable without a suppression. "Shape" names a value's structure rather than its domain role. `UserShape`, `validateArgShape` and `errorShape` all tell you the symbol is "an object with some fields" -- which is already what a type says -- while saying nothing about what the value is for or who owns it. The rule forces the name to carry the domain instead. Violations fixed ---------------- 689 violations across 109 files at baseline (verified by re-running the audit against the pre-change tree with the rule set to "error"). Fix pattern ----------- Rename for the domain role, not the structure: -type FieldShape = 'list' | 'map' | 'whole' -const FIELD_SHAPES = { ... } satisfies Record<keyof Observation, FieldShape> +type FieldEncoding = 'list' | 'map' | 'whole' +const FIELD_ENCODINGS = { ... } satisfies Record<keyof Observation, FieldEncoding> -function assertGitPushTargetShape(target: unknown): void +function assertValidGitPushTarget(target: unknown): void -function describeReadDirPathShape(p: string): ReadDirPathKind +function classifyReadDirPath(p: string): ReadDirPathKind Predicates became statements about the value (`isDeltaShapedProviderFrameKind` -> `isDeltaProviderFrameKind`, `isDeleteShapedDiscardEntry` -> `discardDeletesEntryFile`, `isSkillsCliAgentKeyShaped` -> `isUsableSkillsCliAgentKey`). Type aliases dropped the suffix where the remaining name was already unambiguous (`GhGraphqlErrorShape` -> `GhGraphqlError`). No wire-visible name was renamed: no IPC or RPC channel, stream opcode, request/response param, persisted field, or i18n key. The `--shape=symlink|copy` CLI flag read by .github/workflows/skill-update-roundtrip.yml is unchanged -- only the local variable holding it was renamed. Exemptions ---------- They are file-scoped entries in config/oxlint-anti-slop.json, not inline `oxlint-disable` comments. An inline directive naming an anti-slop rule reads back as an UNUSED directive under the root lint scan, which does not load this plugin -- the changed-code quality gate counts that warning, so the comment form cannot be used for a rule that lives only in this config. * src/renderer/src/components/browser-pane/annotate/**: in the screenshot annotator a "shape" is the drawn geometry -- pen, arrow, rect, ellipse, highlight. That is a genuine domain noun, and it pervades every symbol in the module. * repo-icon.tsx, repo-header-project-actions.tsx, mobile MobileRepoIcon.tsx: lucide exports the icon component as `Shapes`. The name is theirs, and the matching REPO_LUCIDE_ICONS key is the persisted icon name shared with the desktop picker -- renaming it would orphan saved repo icons. * src/shared/onboarding-state-types.ts, src/shared/constants.ts: `shapedSidebar` is a persisted onboarding-checklist field and a telemetry enum member; renaming it would orphan saved state. * src/shared/rpc-contract/rpc-send-params.ts: matching zod's own literal `shape` property is what selects the ZodObject branch of the conditional type. No exemption was added merely to avoid a rename. Eight symbols initially suppressed as "a cross-module refactor outside this change" were proven to have zero non-TypeScript references repo-wide and renamed instead. Zod's `ZodRawShape` needed no exemption at all: `Readonly<Record<string, z.ZodType>>` is its definition, so repo-update-params.ts and ui-update-value-tolerance-params.ts spell it out instead. Likewise telemetry-event-classification.ts now reads `.shape` through an `in` narrowing, which also retires two pre-existing type assertions; three more assertions the rename had dragged onto changed lines (two `JSON.parse` sites, one node:sqlite row read) became annotations and an explicit row mapping. Verified -------- * Audit reports zero violations; confirmed the rule genuinely fires by planting a probe violation. * node config/scripts/run-typecheck-projects-in-parallel.mjs exits 0. * Vitest over src/shared, src/main/github/project-view, the annotate module, the repo-icon components and the Chromium SameSite electron spec: all green. * All 66 removed "shape" identifiers grepped repo-wide across every file type; none survive. * node config/scripts/generate-rpc-params-catalog.mjs --check exits 0. * node --check on every changed .mjs; oxfmt clean on all changed files. * `pnpm run check:code-quality:changed` reports 0 findings. Not machine-verified: the 3 mobile/ files (its Vitest run cannot resolve `expo/tsconfig.base.json` in this worktree), and the WSL- and Playwright-gated specs. All are rename- or comment-only hunks, read in full.	2026-09-15 02:00:27 -07:00
Neil	f7b2736d6d	fix(worktree): block removal when the archive hook fails (#20153) ... * fix(worktree): block removal when the archive hook fails A repo's orca.yaml archive hook is the user's last chance to save work off a checkout Orca is about to delete. A failed hook was logged as advisory and stepped over, so the removal went ahead with nothing archived — and the caller could still be told it succeeded. The hook is now a blocking precondition, evaluated while the checkout, its Git registration, its agents and Orca's ownership evidence are all still intact: it sits ahead of the registration re-read, the lock/dirty preflights, stopPtys() and removeWorktree in every orchestrator that runs it. Failure is typed (worktree_archive_hook_failed) and carries the worktree path, outcome, exit code where one was observed, and the hook's output. unverifiable stays distinct from exited, so loss of contact is never read as a pass. The waiver rides its own field at every layer and is never implied by --force, which already carries the PTY-stop waiver; when used, the waived failure comes back on result.archiveHookOverride rather than being swallowed. worktree.archive-failure-blocking.v1 is advertised so an integration can tell "accepts --run-hooks" from "safely propagates a failing hook" without risking the data loss to find out. The runtime's SSH path cannot run a hook at all, so rather than delete with the archive step silently skipped it refuses — waivable like every other refusal here. #18563 retires that gate by making the path run the hook for real. Stacked on #20559, which makes a timed-out hook report honestly; without it a hook that traps SIGTERM and exits 0 would defeat this gate. Fixes #19334 * fix(worktree): close the skip-confirm dead end and the client/hook timeout gap Four review findings on the gate. A retry from the failure toast could fail for a DIFFERENT reason than the one the user had just answered, and that second failure got a bare toast with no buttons. With skipDeleteWorktreeConfirm set, the delete helpers pass no force, so waiving a failed archive hook on a dirty checkout landed on the dirty preflight and stopped there. Retry failures now re-enter the same failure toast, so every retry stays as actionable as the first attempt. Third instance of this class. The renderer gave worktree.rm a 60s budget while an archive hook may run for 120s. A hook that took 90s and succeeded timed the client out and reported failure while the host went on to delete — telling the user their delete failed and their checkout was gone. The budget is now derived from the hook's, and only when a hook can run. The SSH fail-open is logged rather than silent, and the capability's doc comment scopes what it claims: a hook that RUNS and fails cannot delete the checkout; it is not a promise the hook was found. The SSH owner-resolution test now reads a real remote orca.yaml through a stubbed provider and asserts the returned script is the remote one. It previously stopped at the lookup key, which is the coverage that let this path break twice. It fails against the row-only resolution. * fix(worktree): name a signalled hook exit, and state why prunable cleanup skips the gate Two things the rebase onto #20617 and #20576 surfaced, both found by rerunning the real-repo harness rather than by reading the diff. - #20617 added a registration-cleanup branch that returns before the archive gate. That ordering is correct — both of its arms describe a row with no checkout behind it, so there is nothing to archive and running the hook would fail on the missing cwd — but the gate's ordering invariant is documented, so the exception should be too. - A signalled hook reported `Command failed with exit code null.`, which reads as a reporting glitch rather than the `unverifiable` verdict it is about to produce. It now says the command was terminated without reporting an exit code. Introduced by #20576; the withheld `exitCode` itself was always right. Fixes #19334	2026-09-15 01:19:32 -07:00

3 people	b3e0a33fa4	fix(runtime): agent-neutral wait-blocked reasons (#19749) ... * fix(runtime): agent-neutral wait-blocked reasons and non-Gemini Antigravity readiness Reported by a user via the in-app help menu (report "not captured", 1.4.198). The trust/interactive/update/cwd prompt matchers are agent-agnostic - they match on dialog wording and never inspect the pane's agent - yet emitted hardcoded codex-* reasons. Those reached users verbatim in worker receipts (local-worker-start, federation), two automation surfaces, and raw CLI output, so an Antigravity user was told they had a Codex problem. findAntigravityReadyPromptIndex also required the model line to start with the literal "gemini". Antigravity CLI is not Gemini-only, so a non-Gemini session never registered as ready, stale trust text was never superseded, and the pane stayed blocked - which is why dispatch --inject answered agent_prompt_blocked. Add agent-neutral reasons additively (codex-* members kept on the wire per docs/reference/remote-wire-compatibility.md, with a legacy alias for older hosts) and decide Antigravity readiness structurally: header, then model/account rows, then the prompt caret. codex-model-migration-prompt and codex-hooks-review-prompt stay Codex-named - both key on Codex's own wording. * fix(runtime): finish the agent-neutral rename, revert the Antigravity readiness rewrite Review follow-up on this branch. Splits the two halves of the original commit: the reason rename lands, the Antigravity readiness detector goes back to merge-base until someone captures a real transcript. Rename half: - 'hooks need review' + 'press enter to confirm' inspects no agent, so it now publishes agent-hooks-review-prompt. That was the last agent-agnostic codex-* emission left, and it is the one the original report was about: a Claude Code user hitting a hooks dialog still read "codex-hooks-review-prompt". - The legacy alias is applied at all three surfaces that render a raw reason, not just the CLI. describeTerminalWaitBlockedReason() is the single formatter; the worker and federation "Agent startup blocked:" receipts use it too. Kept one-directional: nothing consumes agent-* -> codex-*, since an old client renders with its own shipped code. - Restores the compat note deleted at the permission-choices site. The Rule 1 citation is correct - remote-wire-compatibility.md names this enum by name. Antigravity half, reverted: findAntigravityReadyPromptIndex goes back to merge-base (header + a 'gemini' model line + a lone '>' caret) and antigravity-ready-prompt-index.ts is removed. Executing both builds against constructed tails, the rewrite read a live startup dialog as ready. Adding the account row from this repo's own ready-screen fixture to five silent startup dialogs (sign-in, model picker, theme picker, privacy notice, update banner) flipped all five from unready to ready; so did any narration line containing an email address, with no account row at all. Readiness is what gates typing the task prompt into the pane, so that path types a task prompt into a live authentication dialog. Merge-base returns unready for all ten. The rewrite also did not reliably fix the wedge it targeted: with no account row and a non-Gemini model - a personal or API-key user - it still returns unready. No real Antigravity transcript exists in this repo. The cursor-agent rules are derived from captures under src/main/runtime/__fixtures__; Antigravity has no equivalent, and every attempt so far has been tuned against a hand-written 5-line fixture. A false negative (the agent waits) is safer than a false positive (we type into an auth dialog), so this ships the known behaviour. Reverting restores a pre-existing gap, not a regression: a non-Gemini Antigravity session wedges on merge-base too. Closing it needs a captured ready screen and a captured dismissed-dialog screen, for a personal/API-key account as well as a Business one. Tests: - Ten ratchet fixtures pin the shapes any replacement detector must refuse - the five silent dialogs with an account row, and each with a narrated email. All ten fail against the reverted rewrite. - Vacuous tests rewritten so they fail without the code they cover: the CLI alias tests asserted only the absence of a suffix, and the worker receipt test asserted the raw token. Tests that are characterization rather than a guard now say so on the line above. --------- Co-authored-by: m4air <m4air@m4airs-MacBook-Air.local> Co-authored-by: Neil <neil@stably.ai>	2026-09-10 23:44:23 -07:00
Brennan BensonandMerge Sim	2626e2eca4	Make the structured turn lifecycle row durable so completed durations survive (#19695) ... * Make the structured turn lifecycle row durable so completed durations survive A structured-chat turn used to end by tombstoning its running lifecycle item, which threw away the only durable record of when the turn ended. Completed "Worked for" labels therefore depended on the renderer having observed the turn finish, and vanished on reopen. The lifecycle item is now revised in place, never tombstoned: - running, with startedAt, at the provider's turn start - completed or interrupted, with completedAt, at the provider's terminal frame, a user stop, or a child exit the host observed - unverifiable, with no end, when a cold acquire finds a running row from a generation whose exit nobody observed Both timestamps are the execution host's clock at receipt, captured before the deferred sink, so the completed value is identical on every client and needs no client clock. Codex history restore uses the provider's own second-granular endpoints for turns that predate this change. Desktop and mobile read settled durations off the journal through one shared selector, and anchor the live counter on the host start with the client's local receipt so a skewed client clock never leaks into the label. Locally observed durations remain the fallback for hosts that still tombstone. Timestamps live inside the existing turnLifecycle field, which old clients strip, and every working-state consumer keys on state === 'running', so no capability negotiation is needed. * native-chat: avoid stale working status on settled turns * test: align settled turn status expectations * Name settled lifecycle rows by their terminal state An interrupted or unverifiable turn must not read as completed for any consumer that renders status text raw. One shared helper builds the text for both providers from the lifecycle state. * test: deduplicate turn lifecycle suites Each behavior keeps one test; duplicated harnesses and restated cases go. * Key lifecycle rows to their user item and record the provider's measured duration A lifecycle row now names the user item that opened the turn by its provider key, so clients attribute timing explicitly and fall back to journal order only for rows from older hosts. A provider-initiated turn with no prompt can no longer claim the previous prompt's duration. When the provider measures the turn itself (Codex turn.durationMs, Claude result.duration_ms) the terminal row records it and clients prefer it over the host interval, so a turn shows the same number live and after a history restore. Host receipt times remain the live-counter anchor and the fallback. * Record a turn as a first-class journal item The turn record is now its own item kind rather than a status row carrying a lifecycle field: no text to misuse, and the fold matches the durable turn record other systems keep. Rows that carry it are stamped journal schema v3; every other row stays v2, so an older host keeps reading them and latches read-only at the first v3 row instead of truncating the epoch. Clients that predate the item would paint an unknown kind as a text bubble, so the host publishes the legacy status form to any client that does not advertise agent-session.turn-item.v1, through the same per-client seam background tasks use. The downgrade is transitional and goes once no supported release lacks the capability. The shared projection now renders unknown item kinds as nothing, so later kinds need no gate. One shared reader handles both forms for old journals and old hosts. * Preserve observed turn end across settlement retries * Retain turn attribution for loaded chat history * Preserve Codex exit receipt across close retries * Register completed turn duration reliability gate * Keep earlier turns through a Codex rewind and count a mid-turn attach from the real start Findings from an independent adversarial review of the typed turn record: - A Codex rewind adopted the provider's item list as the new epoch, and the provider never returns the host's own turn rows, so every duration before the rewind point vanished. The host's turn rows are now spliced back beside the item each followed, and recovery no longer expects the provider to prove rows it never owned. - The epoch row was stamped with the current schema version, so an older host latched read-only at row 1 of every new session, defeating the mixed version design. It carries no body and stays at v2; a stored-row test now reads SQLite directly, because the reader upcasts every row on read. - A send Codex folds into a running turn shares the opening prompt's provider key, and the alias map credited the duration to the later prompt. The earliest submission naming a key now wins. - The live counter anchored on first sight, so a client attaching mid-turn counted from zero. Published frames now carry the host's clock, the reducer keeps the last sample with its local receipt time, and both clients anchor on how long the host says the turn has run. * Correct turn duration gate assertion reference * Respect authoritative unknown native chat duration * Preserve unverifiable timing across older host upgrade * Record final completed turn duration reliability evidence * Fix the CI failures the merge left behind - A merged import list named the same module twice, which the native code quality plugin fails on. - A running turn is now reported by the host with no duration, so the settled map carries an explicit null for it; the hook test still expected the entry to be absent. - main gave the older-page action a cursor with a head-trim guard, so the retention test's epoch-only action no longer typechecks; it now passes an unbounded sequence, which is what the old shape meant. - The roster comparator moved into the extracted module, leaving its import unused in the reducer. * Split two files back under the line cap after the merge Merging main put both one effective line over 300, and the cap forbids a disable or a shave. The wire module's refusal vocabulary moves to its own file and is re-exported, so its consumers are untouched; the host's four thin mutation delegates move next to the functions they call. * Advertise the turn-item capability on every client transport Local IPC and mobile advertised it; the remote and web transports did not, so a desktop paired to a remote host, the CLI, and web silently ran on the legacy carrier forever and the canonical row was never exercised there. The renderer that paints it is the same build on every transport. * Update the web auth-frame expectation for the new capability --------- Co-authored-by: Merge Sim <sim@local>	2026-09-10 14:32:50 -07:00
3 people	f2af92b2fa	feat(native-chat): show live background work and name each row by kind (#19705) ... * fix(codex): reserve the label's share of a qualified command row A child's label is raw provider text and was spliced into the command row unbounded, then the pair clipped to the description cap. A label at or past that cap clipped the command away entirely, leaving a row of kind 'command' that named an agent and showed no command - the failure qualification exists to remove, inverted. The same clip could also cut a surrogate pair, which boundSubagentField already guards against on the agent row two lines away. Give the label a reserved share and clip it the way the agent row does. * feat(native-chat): show live background work and name each row by kind The strip suppressed itself in three places: the Claude tracker blanked its roster for the whole of any turn, the Codex tracker returned nothing while a primary turn was open, and the renderer view gated on `turnId === null`. Between them, work in flight was never shown — and a task backgrounded in an earlier turn vanished from the strip as soon as the next prompt was sent. Claude additionally dropped every foreground subagent, so a fan-out reported nothing at all. Report work while it is live, in all three layers. Foreground Claude work is turn-scoped, so `result` retires it — that is the provider's own outcome for a task it marked foreground, not a roster sweep. Nothing settles a Codex child on turn end: those keep reporting well past their parent, so turn frames only prompt a republish. Name each ROW by kind — Subagent, Shell command, Workflow, Monitor — instead of a generic "Background <kind>", each drawing the glyph the shared tool-icon table already uses for that category. A row that carries a provider description still shows it unchanged. The collapsed header summary is deliberately untouched; it is owned elsewhere. The conversation-command gate is unchanged in effect: an open turn already refuses first, and Claude foreground work never reaches the backgrounded set the gate reads. * fix(native-chat): withhold the row stop Claude foreground work cannot honour The strip now publishes foreground rows, but `stoppableTaskIds` still filters on `backgrounded`, so `stopClaudeBackgroundTasks` resolved an empty target list and returned `{ cancelled: false }` that no renderer reads: the user clicked "Stop Subagent" and nothing ever happened. Carry stoppability per row instead of widening the stop to a target the SDK has no way to reach. `AgentSessionBackgroundTask.stoppable` is absent-means-yes, so hosts that predate it keep their working control, Claude emits `false` only on foreground rows, and the strip hides that row's button the same way it already hides the stop-all a provider cannot honour. * fix(claude): scope aggregate-roster authority to the work it enumerates `background_tasks_changed` lists BACKGROUNDED tasks, so a foreground subagent can never appear in it. Treating it as the whole world meant any such frame cleared every live foreground row mid-flight and then dropped every later foreground `task_started` for the rest of the session, killing the in-turn fan-out the strip exists to show in any session that ever backgrounds anything. Decide `backgrounded` before the staleness guard and apply the guard only to a backgrounded start, and retain live foreground entries across a roster replace. Retained rows count against MAX_TRACKED_TASKS, so the map stays bounded, and a stale backgrounded start the roster no longer lists is still dropped. * test(native-chat): pin the strip's monitor amber to the constant that defines it `MONITOR_GLYPH_COLOR`'s comment claimed a test held it and AgentStateDot's amber together, but no test imported it — the assertions hardcoded 'text-yellow-500', so the two could drift with every test still green. Read the colour from the module, which is what the comment always said was happening. Drop the unused `BackgroundTaskGlyph` export too: nothing outside the module names it. * fix(native-chat): keep the task list open across a gap in live work The strip is now mounted on live work, so a sequential fan-out unmounts it between one subagent finishing and the next starting: local `useState` meant the expanded list collapsed itself on every such gap, on top of the strip flickering above the composer. Hand the disclosure to the session, keyed by session id so it does not leak across a session switch. The strip is now controlled and holds no state of its own, which is what makes it survive its own mount churn. * fix(codex): route every command-row cut through one surrogate-safe clip `boundLabel` avoided splitting a pair, then `qualifiedDescription` re-cut the COMPOSED string with a raw slice: label (<=96) plus separator plus description (<=512) is up to 611 chars, so that second cut landed at an arbitrary index inside the description and could publish a lone high surrogate — lossy through any non-JSON UTF-8 hop. `parse` had the identical hazard on an unqualified primary-thread command. One `boundText` helper now owns all three cuts, so no path in the file can emit a lone surrogate from well-formed input. * fix(claude): keep terminal evidence for ids an aggregate roster never lists Narrowing the admission guard to backgrounded starts left a finished FOREGROUND id with no defence: `replaceAggregateRoster` wiped `terminalTaskIds` wholesale, so after any `background_tasks_changed` a replayed `task_started` revived a task whose completion had already been seen — and only a later `result` could settle it again. Scope the wipe the same way the guard was scoped: delete only the ids the incoming roster actually enumerates. A roster still overrules terminal evidence for the work it lists, which is what that behaviour was added for. * fix(claude): keep retained rows in place and evict the stalest, not the newest Re-adding retained foreground entries after the roster made a live row the user is reading jump below the backgrounded rows on every `background_tasks_changed`, and the cap `break` kept the STALEST retained rows while dropping the newest. Merge in the tracked map's own order so a surviving row holds its position, and count the overflow up front so eviction takes the oldest retained rows. Roster entries are never starved and the map stays bounded either way. * fix(claude): retire leftover foreground rows when the next turn starts A foreground `task_started` arriving with no turn open has no `result` coming to retire it, so it sat in the strip indefinitely — with no per-row stop, since foreground rows are not stoppable — and refused conversation commands behind an instruction nobody could follow. Settle on turn start as well as on `result`. This is cleanup only: visibility never consults `startsTurn`, so a missed one degrades to today's behaviour and can never switch the feature off. It shortens the row's life to the next turn; the case where no further turn is ever sent is filed separately. * fix(agent-session): withhold unstoppable rows from readers that predate them Rule 3 of remote-wire-compatibility: changing what the host publishes reaches old clients with no wire change. The Claude host published no foreground rows before this feature; it does now, and a client that cannot read `stoppable` draws a per-row Stop on every one of them — Claude always sets `supportsTaskStop` — which filters to the backgrounded ids, stops nothing, and returns a result no renderer inspects. That is the dead button `stoppable` was added to remove, reappearing across a version skew. Negotiate it. A client can advertise the existing background-task-stop capability and still predate `stoppable`, so this needs its own constant. Readers that do not advertise it get unstoppable rows dropped, and a state whose every row is dropped becomes no strip — exactly their pre-feature view. RUNTIME_PROTOCOL_VERSION is not bumped: this adds an optional field and a new negotiated capability, and changes no existing field's meaning, which is the explicit do-not-bump case in protocol-version.ts. * test(agent-session): name the projected rows so the fixture typechecks An indexed lookup into the fixture's task list is possibly-undefined under `pnpm tc`; the rows are more readable named anyway. * test(web): advertise the row-stop capability in the e2ee auth expectation The web e2ee handshake started sending AGENT_SESSION_BACKGROUND_TASK_ROW_STOP_CAPABILITY, and this test asserts the advertised list by deep equality, so it went red on CI while every targeted test run stayed green. Add the capability in the position the router sends it. * test(claude): pin why the roster empties mid-turn in a sequential fan-out The strip unmounting between two sequential subagents is truthful, not a swept row: A leaves on the provider's own terminal frame, B does not exist yet, and backgrounded work spanning the same gap holds the roster open — so an empty roster is never work the strip is hiding. Also pins the previous-turn rule against the one the subagent roster already applies on the same frame: a still-working FOREGROUND child becomes `unverifiable` there and a backgrounded one is left alone, so the strip drops the first and keeps the second rather than asserting `live` for either. --------- Co-authored-by: Merge Sim <merge-sim@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Merge Sim <sim@local>	2026-09-10 12:16:30 -07:00
Jinwoo Hong	4b1b7178ad	fix(orchestration): scope @ group addresses to the sender's Run (#19783) ... * fix(orchestration): scope @ group addresses to the sender's Run `@all`, `@idle`, and the agent-name groups (`@claude`, `@codex`, ...) resolved against every terminal on the host. A coordinator meaning "my three reviewers" reached 126 agents across every open project, twice in one day, and every unrelated agent burned a turn discarding mail that was never for it. Every group except `@worktree:<id>` now means the live Dispatches of the sender's own Run, each addressed as `dispatch:<id>` so delivery is durable even when the worker terminal is not attached yet. A sender bound to no Run is refused with `invalid_argument` naming `run:<id>` / `dispatch:<id>`; there is no host-wide fallback and the host's terminals are never enumerated for it. `@idle` and the agent-name groups filter within that set by the same terminal status and host-resolved identity as before. `ask --to @group` returns the same code and points at the owning Run mailbox. Federated Dispatches read relayed control mail rather than a local mailbox, so a Run-scoped fan-out skips them with a `recipient_unreachable` warning naming the direct `dispatch:<id>` address. Group addresses are resolved host-side, so no RPC or stream shape changes; an older CLI sending `@all` to a new host gets the Run-scoped meaning. Claude-Session: run-scoped-group-addresses * fix(orchestration): revalidate legacy takeover before the recipient verdict A legacy coordinator taken over while `listTerminals` was in flight reported `runtime_error` instead of `legacy_read_only`: Run scoping made "no live Dispatch in this Run" the first thing the group send could fail on, and that threw before the takeover check ran. Takeover is a precondition, not a commit-time detail — the sender must be told it is read-only whatever else is wrong with its recipient set. Revalidation moves to immediately after the only `await` in the path. Everything below it is synchronous, so the commit-time window it used to guard is unchanged; only the error paths now see it. The legacy partition test gave `term_current_worker` no Dispatch, so under Run scoping it is correctly not a recipient. It now holds a real current-contract Dispatch in the same adopted Run, which is what the test is named for: one `legacy_direct` and one `current_delivery` recipient in one fan-out. Claude-Session: run-scoped-group-addresses * fix(orchestration): address the Run a nested coordinator created, not its parent A nested coordinator is both a worker of its parent Run and the coordinator of the Run it created. `resolveMessageRun` answers with the parent, correctly, because that is where its own `worker_done` belongs — but audience is a different question. Scoping `@all` to that Run sent a nested coordinator's "shared context" to the siblings it was started beside instead of the workers it started, and reported success, so it never learned its sub-workers heard nothing. Before Run scoping the host-wide fan-out reached the sub-workers by accident; this turned an over-broad delivery into a wrong-audience one, the exact failure class the change exists to remove. Group audience now resolves off the Run the sender coordinates, falling back to its Dispatch's Run. A leaf worker coordinates nothing and is unaffected. This is a separate question from `routing.run`, not a second answer to the same one, so `resolveMessageRun` keeps its meaning for point-to-point mail. Also: when every live Dispatch in a Run is federated, the fan-out skipped them all and threw a bare `Error` that discarded the warnings naming those remote workers and how to address each one. The sender was told "no recipients" while three remote workers existed. That throw now carries a code and the skip explanations. Claude-Session: run-scoped-group-addresses * docs(orchestration): say that no group address reaches a coordinator A coordinator is not a Dispatch, so Run-scoped groups never include one. That follows from the rule, but nothing said it, and the old host-wide meaning did include the coordinator — a worker sending `@all` to raise a blocker would be heard by its siblings and by nobody who can act. The guide, the CLI note, and the docs page now say to use `run:<id>` for that, and that a worker which created its own Run addresses that Run's workers. Also restores the `@cursor` case dropped when the group tests moved: a Claude pane titled "Fix the text cursor blink" must not receive Cursor's mail. That hazard was recorded from real titles and `@droid` alone did not cover it.

Brennan BensonandMerge Sim	5868fdc9e3	feat(native-chat): report Codex background tasks in the chat strip (#19346) ... * feat(native-chat): report Codex background tasks in the chat strip The background-tasks strip works for Claude only; a structured Codex session shows nothing in it. Feed it from the Codex app-server stream. The strip stands for work that OUTLIVED a turn, which is what the monitoring header, Claude's foreground suppression, and the conversation command gate all already assume. Codex has no `is_backgrounded` flag, so that fact is derived from the turn boundary: a `subAgentActivity` child or a primary-thread `commandExecution` becomes visible once the turn it belongs to completes and it is still unsettled. `turn/completed` only reveals a task here, never settles one — measured on `codex app-server` 0.153.4, a spawn_agent child reported `completed` 95.8s after its parent turn ended. Only a child's own activity kind settles it. Codex exposes no honest stop: `turn/interrupt` on a child ends its turn without emitting a terminal activity item and leaves its shell running. So the state carries a new optional `supportsStopAll: false`, the strip hides a control that could not act, and the blocked-command message asks the user to wait rather than to press a button that does not exist. * refactor(codex): move session teardown out of the structured adapter Merging main crossed the 300-line cap on `codex-structured-session-adapter.ts`: the rewind backend (#19235) and this branch's close-time strip clear both landed in it. The four close paths move verbatim into `codex-structured-session-teardown.ts`, where they funnel through one `settled` helper instead of repeating the notification-retry and background-task cleanup at each call site. No ratchet bump. Also normalize a background task's description once at receipt rather than on every projection; the roster is re-projected on each observed frame. * fix(codex): drop the shell row the journal already settles A `commandExecution` still `inProgress` when its turn ends was reported as a `command` task. But `settleCodexJournalTurn` writes exactly those items to the journal as `state: 'failed'` on `turn/completed` and forgets them, so the strip row would have claimed a shell was still running at the same instant Orca recorded that it was not — two surfaces contradicting each other about the same process. A subagent is the opposite case and stays: the roster pointedly does not sweep at a turn boundary, because children measurably outlive it. That leaves the producer making exactly one claim — these spawn_agent children are still live after their turn — which the durable roster row corroborates. * fix(native-chat): track Codex background execution lifetimes * fix(native-chat): keep running tool groups from claiming completion * Fix runtime catalog and capability expectation * fix(codex): keep a child's name on the command row that outlives it A child agent's commands stay hidden behind its agent row while the child works. Once the child's turn settles with a command still running, that command surfaces as its own row labelled from the raw command string, so 'long_probe' became "/bin/zsh -lc 'ping -c 300 127.0.0.1 > /dev/null'" at the moment that row was the only remaining signal for the work. Qualify a child's command row with the child's label. Resolved on read, so a label registered after the command still lands, and bounded by the existing description cap so admission accounting stays valid. Primary- thread commands are left unqualified: they have no child to name. --------- Co-authored-by: Merge Sim <sim@local>	2026-09-09 00:13:20 -07:00

The corpse and the healthy worker produced identical receipts. worker-start now runs the existing second-stage prompt observer (observeTerminalAgentPrompt) after acceptance, inside the 30s window the client RPC grace already budgets for (orchestration-worker-start-prompt-budget): - turn observed (or provider ack for structured sessions) -> ready - permission prompt -> ready; positive liveness, surfaced in the receipt - provider without a turn-start signal -> ready; observation: unsupported - observation supported and nothing started -> worker state start_unknown, response state outcome_unknown with nextCommands. Honest 'unverifiable', never a death claim: the capability and terminal are kept, and worker-report settlement already reconnects a start_unknown worker that recovers and reports. Also fixes the effect-verb lie that misdirected the first diagnosis of this incident: agent-first worktree creation labeled its own brand-new agent terminal 'reused_agent_terminal' (a role test picking a lifecycle verb) on both the local and federation paths.

Build the real display: one summary row per spawn group with a live working count and token usage. State is accumulated from `subAgentActivity.kind` alone. A live probe against app-server 0.152.1 showed `agentsStates` arrives empty even in a real subagent run, and that every activity item is delivered twice (item/started and item/completed), so every transition is idempotent and terminal states latch. Children never receive `thread/started`, so there is no nickname, role, or depth to read; the row labels from the trailing segment of `agentPath`. Two sweeps keep a row from claiming work forever: the parent turn's terminal event settles still-running children, and session start marks a pre-restart roster unverifiable rather than exited, since Codex resume replays no non-message items and no event can ever settle them. The roster rides a new NativeChatBlock variant paired with a plain-text twin. A journal item kind could not be used: that union is closed, and an unknown kind parses as malformed, which is the corrupt-journal class that can hide the chat tab. Block types are explicitly admissible when unknown, so an older client drops the block and renders the sentence. MessageRow moves out of NativeChatMessageList to keep both files under the max-lines budget without a disable. * feat(native-chat): give the subagent summary row its bot glyph The row led with a glyph that swapped on state — a check once every child completed, a group icon otherwise — so a group appeared to change identity the moment it settled. Per the approved mock, the glyph names the category and never moves: state is carried by the status dot and the tone of the words beside it. Use lucide `bot`, the same glyph the individual `subAgentActivity` rows take in the eight-category vocabulary, so the summary reads as their parent. Slot and glyph are the mock's 16px/14px, muted by default, and the svg is `aria-hidden` — the headline is what a screen reader announces, so the icon never stands alone. * fix(native-chat): correct the Codex subagent roster's build, journal write, and failure reporting * Restore the exhaustive block handling that adding `subagent-group` to `NativeChatBlock` broke. `formatWorkerTranscriptMessage` and `boundBlock` both fell through to `image-ref` field access, so `tsc -p` failed for the CLI and node projects and `build:cli` could not emit. Both now guard on `image-ref` explicitly and give the roster block its own branch. * Stop the roster's publish from evicting its own append. The sink queue coalesces by `coalescingKey` alone with no op-kind check, so passing the append's key to `tryPublish` spliced the queued append out and the row never reached the journal — permanently, since `lastSerialized` was already set. `tryPublish()` now takes no argument, matching every other call site. The regression test's fake sink honours the key, which the previous fake did not. * Keep `collabAgentToolCall` substantive. Only the MultiAgentV2 path emits `subAgentActivity`, so a V1 turn has no roster row; suppressing its collab tool calls too would have left a V1 fan-out showing nothing at all. * Surface a settled failure while siblings still work. The summary now reports the worst adverse outcome independently of the group verdict, so the row shows `3 working +1 failed` with a failed-coloured dot instead of a neutral pulsing dot. The plain-text twin names it too. * Treat `/morpheus` as a child. Only `/root` is the turn itself; the old segment-count test silently dropped a valid single-segment agent. * Refresh token-usage recency on update so an active thread is not evicted as the oldest entry, and scope the `agentsStates` comment to the V2 path. * fix(native-chat): stop the subagent roster announcing a new duration every second The roster row is an `aria-live="polite"` region and it contains the elapsed clock, which reticks once a second for as long as the fan-out runs. A screen reader therefore reads out a fresh duration every second, burying the state changes the live region exists to report — the headline, the verdict, and the `+1 failed` alert. No other live region in the transcript does this. `NativeChatToolRun`'s live button holds only the active tool label, and in `NativeChatWorkingStatus` the variant that shows a duration is precisely the one with no `aria-live`. Hide the clock from the accessibility tree only while it is moving. Once the group settles the duration is fixed, so it stays readable and costs no announcements. * fix(native-chat): retry a refused roster publish, and stop two wrong readings Four defects from a third review pass over the Codex subagent roster. `write()` set `lastSerialized` before the append and rolled it back only when the APPEND was refused. A refused PUBLISH left it set, so an identical replay short-circuited and the revision was never published again. The repo's own pattern is the opposite: `codex-structured-item-streams.ts` advances `checkpointLengths` only once the append AND the publish are both accepted. Roll back on either half. That alone did not cover the sweep, which is the LAST event a group ever gets: its `changed` guard skips the write on a retry because every child has already latched, stranding the settled roster's final revision. Write when the previous attempt was refused part-way, too. `formatWorkerTranscriptMessage` read `block.agents` as its exhaustive fallback. The journal schema deliberately admits block types this build does not know and `client.call` casts the RPC result instead of validating it, so a newer remote host's block reached that line and threw `agents is not iterable`, taking down the whole `worker read`. It printed a harmless `[image omitted]` before. Match `subagent-group` explicitly and degrade the unknown case. The elapsed clock measured to `now` whenever no child carried a terminal timestamp. That is exactly the roster restored from the journal after the host died: the reconciler latches `unverifiable` without a `settledAt`, so a child that ran four seconds reported the time since the crash as its run length, on a row that is not even counting. Show no duration when none is known. Also restores package.json to origin/main: the merge had deleted one of main's two duplicate `bench:terminal-partial-escape-tail` keys. Behaviour-preserving (JSON is last-wins and the deleted line was the dead one), but unrelated to this PR and better left to its own change. No gate rejects duplicate JSON keys. The new refusal tests also cover the append-side rollback, which had none. * fix(native-chat): stop the subagent roster vanishing from every settled turn `NativeChatToolRun` bailed out for a completed turn whose activity disclosure is collapsed before it reached the branch that draws a roster-only run. That guard exists to push TOOL activity behind the turn-status disclosure, and it fires on exactly the shape a spawn group has: a roster message carries no tool blocks, so `selectActiveToolCall` returns null and `isSettled` is true, while the list passes `expandOverride={expandedTurnIds.has(turnKey)}` — false until the reader opens that turn — and `activeTurnIsWorking={false}`. That is the default state of every finished turn in the transcript, so the one compact row this feature exists to leave behind ("Ran 3 subagents") disappeared the moment its turn ended. Worse, `MessageRow` counts a spawn group as renderable specifically so the row survives, then rendered a wrapper around a component that returned null — the empty ghost bubble its own guard is written to prevent. Order the roster branch before the disclosure guard. A roster has no tool activity to hide, and the guard's reasoning ("a failed child command looked like the whole response was still running") does not reach it. Runs that do carry tool blocks still fall through to the guard unchanged, and in practice a roster never shares a message with them: it is its own `role: 'system'` journal row and `isToolOnlyMessage` is false for it, so `foldToolMessages` never merges tool blocks into it. Also drop childless groups when building the rows, so `subagentRows.length` stays an honest test of "something will draw" — the roster-only branch returns a margin-bearing wrapper on the strength of it, and a group with no children renders null. Both tests fail with their fix reverted; the existing NativeChatToolRun suite still passes, so the completed-turn disclosure behaviour is unchanged. * test(native-chat): cover the subagent roster at the message-list level Every defect this feature has shipped so far lived in the assembly between rows, and the row-level suites kept passing through all of them. Loop 4's regression — a settled roster swallowed by the completed-turn disclosure — was found by reading the code, not by a test, and an independent visual-proof run observed the same symptom in the real UI and routed around it rather than reporting it. `NativeChatToolRun` rendered alone is handed `expandOverride` and `activeTurnIsWorking` by the test author, so it agrees with whatever the caller was assumed to pass. Drive the real component instead. The roster is its own `role: 'system'` journal row carrying the producer's two blocks (structured + plain-text twin), so what reaches the DOM depends on `foldToolMessages`, the turn-key mapping and the disclosure state `NativeChatMessageList` owns — none of which a row test exercises. Three cases, on one assembled transcript that holds tool calls AND a roster: - a settled turn with activity collapsed, the resting state of the whole transcript, still shows the row (fails with loop 4's reorder reverted); - tool activity stays behind that disclosure and appears only on expand, and expanding draws no second roster (fails with the guard removed); - a working turn reads as a live spawn. The first also pins that the plain-text twin is dropped rather than printed beside the row it stands in for. Timestamps are explicit and ascending: the list re-sorts by (timestamp, id), so rows sharing a millisecond tie-break alphabetically and the user turn can sort last, stranding the roster outside its own turn and reconciling live children to `unverifiable`. No production code changed. * fix(native-chat): make "counts as renderable" and "actually draws" agree for a spawn group `MessageRow` counts any `subagent-group` block as renderable, but `NativeChatSubagentRun` renders null for a childless roster. A group with `agents: []` therefore mounted a row that drew nothing — an empty div that still costs the transcript one `gap-5` slot. The Codex producer never writes one (every `write()` call site operates on a group that already holds an entry), but the block schema admits `agents: []` with no `.min(1)`, and the wire is where such a shape would arrive. Narrow `subagentGroupBlocks` — whose only production caller IS that renderable check — to the groups that will draw, behind a named `isRenderableSubagentGroup` that `NativeChatToolRun` now shares in place of its own copy of the predicate, so the two guards cannot drift apart again. A childless group carrying its plain-text twin now prints the twin, which is what the twin is for; a bare one skips the row entirely. Also correct four comments that had stopped describing the code: - the roster header called `agentsStates` "always empty", contradicting the probe note in `codex-subagent-activity.ts` — it is empty on the MultiAgentV2 path that emits these items, and the V1 path does populate it; - `tokensByThread` was documented "retained UNCONDITIONALLY" while `handleTokenUsage` LRU-caps it 65 lines below; - the sweep is not "the LAST event a group ever gets": neither `settleTurn` nor `settleSession` removes the group, so a later `thread/tokenUsage/updated` naming a swept child still writes it. The retry condition is right; only its stated reason was wrong; - the `subAgentActivity` classification is not reached "for every event — and every one of them arrives twice". `handleSubagentItem` intercepts those items before `items.handle`, so the live path never consults the catalog; `restoreThread` replays them straight through, and is the real consumer. Comment-only apart from the childless-group guard. * fix(cli): stop `worker read` printing the subagent roster sentence twice The producer ALWAYS writes a roster block beside a plain-text twin carrying the same sentence, for clients that cannot draw the block. The renderer honours that contract from one side — it draws the block and drops the twin. The CLI honoured neither side: it printed the twin as prose AND rendered the block as `[subagents] <same sentence>`, so a real roster message read [system] Ran 2 subagents (1 failed) [subagents] Ran 2 subagents (1 failed) Take the mirror of the renderer's rule, which is the cleaner half for a text client: the twin IS the sentence, so print it and drop the block it stands in for. A block that arrives WITHOUT its twin — a shape the wire admits and no producer writes — still stands in for itself, because dropping it unconditionally would lose the roster entirely. Either way the sentence prints exactly once, off the same `subagentGroupFallbackText` helper both sides use. Unreachable through `readWorkerTranscript` today, whose provider rollout decoder never emits a `subagent-group` block — but the formatter is the CLI's contract for any transcript source, and the shape is already producible. The test pinned a TWIN-LESS group, a body `codexSubagentGroupBody` never writes: it asserted the exact double-print this fixes was correct output, and would have blessed either behaviour. Rebuild the fixture as the producer's real two-block row, with the sentence taken from the shared helper rather than hardcoded so it cannot drift, and assert the sentence appears exactly once. The twin-less shape keeps a test of its own, labelled as the wire-only fallback it is. Also record why `settleTurn` keys on the RAW `turnId` while `groupFor` remaps off-primary activity onto the primary's active turn. The asymmetry is load-bearing, not an oversight: were `settleTurn` to remap, a child thread ending its own turn would sweep the parent group and settle every still-working sibling to `unverifiable`. The lookup missing is the intended no-op. * fix(native-chat): add the subagent roster's localization keys and narrow its twin filters The roster row called 16 `components.native-chat.subagents.*` keys that were never added to the catalog, failing the localization gate. Synced en.json; the English strings are the component's own inline fallbacks, so nothing renders differently. Also tightens the twin/block handoff on both readers. The renderer dropped every text block once a roster was present, which is safe only because Codex writes a roster as its own message — the block is provider-agnostic, so a lane folding prose in beside one would have lost it on desktop while mobile kept it. And both readers decided "the twin is already printing" by recomputing the sentence and comparing bytes, which a roster from a newer build never matches: its unknown state normalizes to `unverifiable` here, so the CLI printed the roster twice with two different verdicts. Both now recognize a twin by shape. * test(native-chat): pin the roster twin recognizer against prose Both readers use it to decide the twin is already printing, so a false positive eats a message's real prose and a false negative prints the roster twice. * docs(codex): restore the roster's evictionated trigger to its KNOWN LIMITATION The previous rewrite dropped both triggers the old comment named and kept only the restart one, but eviction is the reachable half: `groupFor` caps `groups` at MAX_CODEX_SUBAGENT_GROUPS and drops the oldest-INSERTED entry (it returns an existing group without re-inserting, so this is not LRU), which can evict a still-live group in-process. The row identity is keyed on the group id alone, so the next activity item rebuilds that row from one child — the same N-to-1 rewrite, with no restart, and with the sweep skipped so the children never latch `unverifiable`. Also softens "every real turn id is freshly minted" to the provider assumption it is: turn ids are read verbatim off provider frames and nothing in this repo mints or asserts them. * docs(codex): justify the subagent wire notes from the live probe alone The roster and disposition comments explained themselves in terms of a provider-internal path taxonomy rather than anything this repo can observe. Restate them from the evidence Orca actually has: the live app-server probe saw `agentsStates` arrive empty, so nothing reads it; and `collabAgentToolCall` stays substantive because nothing guarantees a session reports subagent work as `subAgentActivity` at all — one that only emits the collab tool call gets no roster row, and suppressing that too would leave its fan-out blank. Same behaviour, same tests; comments and one test name only. * fix(native-chat): stop the roster's durable twin from claiming live subagents The spawn-group row is written once and revised in place, but the row itself is durable and replayed on every reconnect. Its plain-text twin — the only thing a client that cannot draw the block ever sees — froze a live count into that row: `Kicked off 4 subagents — 2 working`. The desktop renderer never shows it, and reconciles the block's `working` to `unverifiable` outside the live turn. A text-only reader does neither. When the writing process dies mid-flight the turn-end sweep never runs, so the sentence keeps asserting two running children forever, with nothing left that could re-check them. That is the collapse `docs/reference/ssh-execution-boundary.md` forbids: loss of contact reported as a live state. Fix it at the source rather than per client: the durable sentence now states only what survives its process — that the group was spawned, plus whatever outcome had latched. `Kicked off` vs `Ran` stays, because it reports whether an outcome was recorded at write time; saying `Ran` while children were in flight would assert they exited, the same error inverted. The adverse count stays so a failing fan-out still reads as failing. Reconciliation stays in the renderer, where the block still needs it. The twin recognizer keeps matching the legacy `— N working` shape: journals already hold those sentences and their rows replay forever, so dropping the branch would print every one of them twice, once as the block and once as prose the reader meant to drop. Also align the two functions that read `agentPath`. The root check compared the raw string while the label normalized separators, so `/root/` was both the turn itself and a child of it — a phantom row labelled `root` inflating the group by one. Compare normalized segments instead, keeping `/morpheus` a child. And a trailing segment with nothing visible in it survives the empty-segment filter and would draw a nameless row, so it now reads as no label and falls back to the placeholder. * fix(codex): key the subagent label collision ordinal on what the row draws `codexSubagentLabel` tested the trailing segment trimmed but returned it untrimmed, and `claimLabel` keys its collision ordinal on that string. Two children at `/root/read` and `/root/ read ` therefore both drew as `read` with no ordinal — the one thing the ordinal exists to prevent. Return the trimmed segment so labels that render identically collide. Also correct the legacy-clause note on the twin recognizer. It claimed shipped journals hold the old `— N working` sentence; the feature is unreleased, so the only journals holding one are dev worktrees of this branch. The branch still earns its place — those rows replay too, and it adds no false-positive surface the bare shape does not already carry — but the stated reason was wrong. * test(native-chat): retire the subagent-visibility guards now the roster renders Two tests from the sibling item-coverage PR asserted that subagent items stay on the generic gray row, explicitly gated on "until a real renderer exists". This branch is that renderer, so both guards fire on merge — the handoff they were written to mark rather than a regression. They now pin the other side of it: subAgentActivity is suppressed because the spawn-group roster renders it, and collabAgentToolCall deliberately stays visible, since nothing guarantees a session reports subagent work as subAgentActivity at all. Git merged both files without conflict; only running the suite surfaced this. * fix(native-chat): let a subagent swept at turn end still report what it did The turn-end sweep marks still-running children `unverifiable`, and the producer latched on any state that was not `working` — so `unverifiable` latched too. A subagent that outlived its turn then reported `completed`, the latch refused it, and a child that finished successfully read as one we never saw finish, permanently. One predicate was doing two jobs. `isTerminalSubagentState` is right for counting — `unverifiable` is not working — and wrong for latching, because `unverifiable` records that we stopped being able to see the child, not what it did. Split them: a child's own verdict latches, the sweep's guess does not. The reverse stays refused. Nothing returns to `working` once we have given up on it, so a straggler progress tick cannot re-light a settled row. Neither the latch nor the sweep was wrong alone, and both were tested; the defect lived only in their interaction, and only when a subagent outlives its turn — which the probe that drove this design never produced, because the parent it captured waited on its child. * fix: drop the @pnpm/exe lockfile drift a merge staged `git add -A` swept up the pnpm-lock.yaml mutation that every pnpm invocation leaves in this repo. Nineteen lines, thirteen of them @pnpm/exe, and it fails sixteen unrelated CI checks — native smoke, typecheck, packaging, xterm patch sync — none of which name the lockfile. * fix(native-chat): restore the item fall-through an inline dropped Inlining the subagent routing helper lost its null check: the roster returning null means it did not claim the item, and the translator must keep looking. Returning unconditionally once any thread item parsed swallowed every ordinary item — twelve settlement tests, none of them about subagents. * fix(orchestration): rebind the subagent block arm to the renamed bound state Main renamed clipMetadata's second parameter from a warnings set to a TranscriptBoundState. The subagent-group arm still passed `warnings`, and git merged both sides without a conflict because the lines never overlapped — the rename and the new arm are in different hunks. Typecheck was the only thing that could catch it, and did. * fix(codex): publish the turn tail for a subagent item the roster claims Main's #19055 added a `subAgentActivity` arm to the provider activity table, which is reached only through `publishActivity`. The roster's admission returned above that call, so every `subAgentActivity` item bypassed it and a fan-out that reports nothing else left the turn tail stuck on the previous frame's text. `publishActivity` already no-ops on a refused admission and on a non-primary thread, so routing the roster's admission through it is safe. Also corrects a docstring the frames extraction copy-pasted onto `settleOversizedNotification`. * fix(native-chat): bound the subagent roster on every boundary that carries it The spawn-group arm was the one collection in the worker-transcript payload with no cap, and the one block type mobile's `sanitizeBlock` forwarded verbatim. The producer's `MAX_CODEX_SUBAGENTS_PER_GROUP` does not reach either boundary: the journal schema declares no maximum on `agents`, and a remote host may run a build with a different cap. Both transports now cap the roster and bound `id`, `label` and the open `state` string; `label` and `id` also take the standard inline bound on the journal write path, where every other provider string already does. A token count is now persisted onto its entry at write time. `write` rebuilt `tokens` from the LRU-capped thread map on every write, so an eviction silently retracted a count the durable row had already shown. Adds the first coverage of the three roster caps, including the group eviction that rewrites a row from N children down to one. * fix(native-chat): keep the roster drawn beside tool calls and its clock honest The roster-only escape is keyed on `blocks.length === 0`, so a spawn group sharing its message with tool-call blocks fell through to the settled-turn guard, which returned bare null and took the roster with it — the exact regression the escape above was written to avoid, after the message row had already counted the group as renderable. Unreachable for Codex today; the block type is deliberately provider-agnostic, so it is live for the Claude lane. The elapsed clock also froze at a sibling's timestamp on a partial sweep: in a group where one child completed and another is unaccounted for, the ended turn left `working === 0` with the completed child's `settledAt`, and the row showed that child's duration as the group's run length. No clock is drawn while any child is `unverifiable` with no terminal timestamp. * perf(native-chat): bound the roster's provider strings without digesting them `boundInlineText` computes a sha256 and a Buffer BEFORE it checks the length, so the roster paid two digests per child on every write even when nothing was truncated — and `write()` runs on every claimed activity item (each delivered twice) and again from `handleTokenUsage`, which streams. A same-process A/B over a 64-child group: 76.5 us/write before, 2.0 us/write after (plain, unbounded row is 1.2 us). The cap changes with the mechanism. 16 KB is the tool-output bound; both readers of this row already clip the same fields to 512, so the producer was admitting ~2 MB per durable roster row for consumers to throw ~97% of away. One `MAX_SUBAGENT_FIELD_CHARS` now serves the producer and both readers, and the marker is an ellipsis rather than the tool-output truncation sentence — `id` is the roster key and the renderer's React key. Also raises the orchestration arm's per-group bound from 20 to the producer's 64, matching the mobile arm: a 21-64 child group is routinely producible here, so that arm clipped children and warned while its sibling clipped none. The slice and warning stay as the transport's own defence against a remote host with a larger cap. * fix(orchestration): suppress one roster block per twin, not all of them `hasTwin` was a single boolean over the whole message, so a message carrying two `subagent-group` blocks and one plain-text twin printed one sentence and dropped the second roster with no marker. Count the twins and claim one per group instead. Not reachable from this branch's producer, which writes one group per journal item, but the surrounding reasoning is explicitly about wire shapes the producer never writes and this is the adjacent one it missed. * fix(native-chat): loop-3 fixes to the Codex subagent worklog Five defects loop 2's own fixes introduced. Twin claiming was order-blind: the count-based claim silenced whichever roster block came first, so a lone twin belonging to a LATER group erased an earlier group's roster and printed the later sentence twice. Exact-text claims are now settled for every group before any leftover twin is claimed by position; the positional fallback stays for a newer build's frozen twin, which can never equal a recomputed sentence. `boundSubagentField` sliced UTF-16 units and could leave a lone high surrogate in a durable row, and the clip removed exactly the tail that told two children apart — `id` is the renderer's React key and `claimLabel` writes its repeat ordinal at the end. It now backs off a split pair and reserves the child index inside the bound, so both readers' re-clip cannot cut the disambiguator off again. `MAX_SUBAGENT_FIELD_CHARS`'s doc claimed a `groupId` bound the producer never applies; the doc now says so and why. The worker-transcript metadata cap is a separate literal again: it governs message ids, turn ids, tool-call names and image urls, so a roster-motivated change must not move it. * fix(native-chat): never infer a lost subagent from a turn boundary QA drove a real Codex session with three live `spawn_agent` children and sent a mid-turn correction. The roster row immediately read "Ran 3 subagents / 3 unverifiable" with no clock, while all three were still running — they reported `completed` 57-87s after that turn ended. Both sites rested on the same false premise: that a turn ending means no event will ever settle a child. Children outlive their turn and keep reporting into the same group. - Renderer: drop `reconcileSubagentRoster`. Nothing plumbed to the component distinguishes a row written by a dead host from a turn that merely ended — journal render items carry no epoch, and a new epoch deletes the rows of the one it supersedes — so the row now draws the state the journal recorded. Under-claiming beats over-claiming. - Main: stop sweeping on `turn/completed`. That sweep wrote `unverifiable` into the DURABLE journal, which mobile reads with no reconciliation. `turn/completed` is Codex's only turn-end notification, so an abort cannot be told apart from a clean finish; the safe default is not to sweep. `settleSession` — the provider actually being gone — is unchanged and is now the only sweep. `unverifiable` stays non-latching so a late verdict still lands. * test(native-chat): pin the roster at the seam the QA defect came from The mid-turn correction opens a new turn, so the fan-out's row stops being the current turn and the list hands the roster `activeTurnIsWorking={false}`. Asserted through the list, not the component, because that prop is what carried the wrong claim. * fix(native-chat): settle a roster the dying host never got to sweep `settleSession` only fires when the provider goes away while this process is alive. If the host itself dies, nothing sweeps and nothing reconciles on restore, so a `subagent-group` row persisted as `working` claimed live children forever — the mirror of the defect the previous commit fixed, and the same `ssh-execution-boundary.md` violation in the other direction. Reconciled host-side, at journal open, not in the renderer: mobile shows only the durable text twin and reconciles nothing, so a renderer-only fix would leave it claiming live children indefinitely. Opening the journal is also the one moment a host can honestly say the previous writer is gone. - `staleSubagentRosterRevisions` rewrites every child still reading `working` to `unverifiable` and regenerates the twin from the same summary, so the block and the sentence cannot disagree. - No terminal timestamp: the child stopped being observable at an unknown moment, and stamping the reopen would report the downtime as its run length. - Revises in place under the parsed identity, so a reopen upserts the row rather than appending a duplicate, and a second reopen writes nothing. - Skipped on a corrupt load: that journal is still owed a rebuild from provider history, and content past the repair's free sequence retires the demand. Reconciles journal ROWS, not roster state — the producer's in-process group map is untouched, so the roster's known seeding limitation is unchanged, as is `canReplaceSubagentState`: `unverifiable` still does not latch. --------- Co-authored-by: Merge Sim <sim@local>	2026-09-07 09:38:16 -07:00
Jinwoo Hong	fb322046e8	skills: rewrite and trim the seven non-orchestration guides (#19128) ... * skills: rewrite the seven non-orchestration guides to one outcome-first standard Every guide leads with Result / Done / Safe failure, states conditions instead of case lists, keeps one done bar and one autonomy envelope, and loads references at the point of use via `skills get <topic> --full`. orca-cli drops from 424 to 260 always-loaded lines with three references; orca-per-workspace-env from 794 to 397 with five. Defects fixed in shipped guides: `emulator camera` (no such command), iOS `permissions` (backend refuses it), Android pane described as in development, `relayGracePeriodSeconds: 0` documented as immediate teardown (it is unbounded), doctor `ok: true` hiding `warn`, an SSH exemplar setting both `jumpHost` and `proxyCommand`, a provisioned-root fetch from `origin`, and the Linear unconfirmed-write rule keyed on four verbs when ten emit it. The resolver ladder, placeholder rule, and older-binary fallback shared by every installable SKILL.md now come from one skill-stubs/_shared/cli-resolution.md fragment composed by the generator, which also bundles per-guide references into --full. New guards: every ORCA invocation and flag resolves against COMMAND_SPECS, descriptions carry no angle-bracket tokens, reference routing is checked both ways, and an always-loaded size ratchet (300 lines) that guides may leave but never join. * skills: address review on the SSH recipe and the parity guard - ssh-host create script: route the bootstrap ssh through the chosen jump host or proxy command, refuse both at once, use StrictHostKeyChecking=accept-new instead of a blind ssh-keyscan append, and pass gh_token/project_root/repo_url/repo_ref to the remote bash via printf %q so a quote in a value cannot break out of the command. - per-workspace-env envelope: the step-10 workspace test the user asked for is no longer forbidden by the same paragraph. - linear guides: name the full verb, ORCA linear list-issues. - parity guard: a prefix reference such as ORCA linear --help or ORCA emulator --webcam now has its flags checked against every command under that prefix; only an exact path or an explicit ... was checked before. * skills: tighten prose in the seven rewritten guides Shorter outcome spines, one idea per sentence, no restated rationale after a rule. No rule, command, or pinned phrase changes; 47 net lines fewer across the guides and references. * skills: route orca-cli and per-workspace-env gates through --reference Both guides told agents to load --full at a gate because the per-reference selector did not exist when they were written. Now that main serves `skills get <topic> --reference references/<file>.md`, load only the named file and keep --full as the fallback for an older CLI, matching the orchestration kernel. * skills: drop outcome-spine boilerplate from the CLI-wrapper guides The Result/Done/Safe-failure preambles and Next Action closers restated rules the body already carries. Agents stop fine without them, and for a CLI wrapper the command surface is the guide. Keeps the one substantive rule computer-use's Done block added (never report unverified as success) inside Action Rules. orchestration and per-workspace-env keep theirs: those are multi-step workflows where the done bar is load-bearing. (cherry picked from commit 44a74baf73) * skills: trim the guides and stubs to what agents actually need - Drop the Result/Done/Safe-failure preambles and Next Action closers from the six CLI-wrapper guides; the one substantive rule (never report an unverified computer-use action as success) moves into Action Rules. - Drop the 'guide may be stale, trust --help' lines: the guide is served by the binary that runs the commands, so it cannot be stale relative to it. - Drop the status --json / open --json preflight from every guide; the stub no-guessing paragraph now says to start Orca only when a command reports it is not running. - Cut the ORCA placeholder paragraph in each guide to one line that points back at the stub's resolution. - Trim the orchestration, orca-cli, and computer-use descriptions to trigger phrases plus one line of scope. - Remove the older-binary fallback section from every stub (and its two shared blocks); a binary without skills get gets one sentence. - Remove the guide size ratchet test. * skills: apply independent review cleanup * skills: clarify guide loading and Linear command discovery * skills: harden environment recipe examples * test: complete branch rename journal doubles * skills: clarify custom Codex launch and refresh model example * test: deduplicate journal fix now present on main	2026-09-07 00:03:48 -04:00
Brennan BensonandMerge Sim	68dd3909c7	feat(orchestration): orchestrate native-born structured chat sessions (#18827) ... * feat(orchestration): orchestrate native-born structured chat sessions Orchestration resolves every worker through a terminal handle and a pane key backed by a live PTY. A session created directly as structured has neither, so it was not refused by orchestration — it was invisible. A coordinator could not start one, address one, or receive `worker_done` from one. Add a second authority source rather than a parameter channel. A registry maps a session id to the same three facts the PTY path supplies — a bearer handle, a pane key and a host scope — and the four runtime getters consult it before giving up on `ptysById`. `orchestration.send` and `verifyDispatchCapability` are untouched: authority stays host-derived and the CLI still cannot assert who it is. PTY handles short-circuit on the handle prefix, so the terminal path is unchanged. Mail travels as a session turn instead of as bytes, on a sibling lane that keeps the PTY lane's outstanding-run, waiter, reserved-type and batch rules. Orchestration's database stays the source of truth; the send is best-effort, exactly as the byte write is, and mail is consumed only on a proven-accepted dispatch. Delivery waits for the session to be between turns, because one provider refuses a mid-turn start outright and the other cannot acknowledge one inside the ack window. Security properties, each pinned by test: the pane key's leaf is random and persisted rather than derived, since `check` is identity-gated and accepts a caller-supplied pane key; the handle is a random bearer token; the child env carries no pane key, which would otherwise flow into hook pipelines that assume a PTY leaf; hook attestation stays closed for structured handles; and process continuity comes from record lineage, never the runtime fence, which the host bumps during its own crash recovery. Also remove the "Orchestration paused" notice, which gated only on dispatch status and rendered over bridge chat where orchestration always worked; refuse the implicit-sender fallback when a worktree has more than one candidate leaf instead of guessing; and collapse the archive kinds to one named type with a compile-time assertion that the capture set cannot drift ahead of the storable set. * fix(orchestration): answer the structured idle gate from the reduced timeline The structured pointer gate read a bounded 40-item tail page. A settled turn is tombstoned rather than rewritten, so an idle worker with any real history carries no turnLifecycle item at all and the "full page, no lifecycle item" guard read it as busy forever: every nudge after the worker's first substantial turn parked on a settle edge that had already passed, and the preamble tells workers not to poll. The attention gate had the mirror bug — a prompt older than the tail window was missed and the nudge was delivered into a session blocked on a human. Both facts now come from `journal.snapshot()`, the fully reduced timeline, via a new narrow `readGateFacts` host read; the policy module stays pure and still projects through the shared helpers the chat view reads. Also: - Park `session-not-attached` on the journal edge, so mail that arrives during a transient detach is redriven by the re-attach reset instead of sitting unread. - Resolve a structured worker's provider from the durable agent-session record when the registry entry was rehydrated, so a restarted Codex worker is no longer reported and archived as Claude. - Clear `structured_pointer_operations` in every `orchestration reset` scope. - Drop the per-chat-pane dispatch-status store subscription left behind by the removed paused notice, and re-pin the two terminal-pane ratchets it moves. - Hoist the identical pointer batch selection out of both delivery lanes into `selectOrchestrationPointerBatch`. - Refuse the pre-graph-ready focus-based guess for `requireUnambiguous` callers, matching the ready path. - Move the host teardown phase list into the teardown module it belongs to, which is what keeps the host inside its max-lines budget. * fix(orchestration): discard a structured worker session whose create settled unknown `commitStructuredAgentSessionCreate` answers `agent_session_operation_unknown` when `attach` SUCCEEDED and only the tab publish failed, so `created.ok === false` is not proof that nothing exists. The worker start read it that way and skipped `discardCreatedSession`, leaving a live provider child that took no hold, has no `bindingsByDispatchId` entry and no published tab — the outer `releaseStructuredWorkerSession` no-ops without a binding, and a session that never had a holder never starts the eviction clock, so nothing in the runtime ever retires it. A throw out of the commit half is past `attach` for the same reason; the pre-commit half refuses rather than throwing. Cleanup now asks whether the create MAY have committed, via the existing `isDefinitiveAgentSessionCreateRefusal` predicate. Also: - Strengthen the pre-ready `requireUnambiguous` test so it actually pins the guard: the snapshot now carries a focused terminal, so deleting the `? [] :` ternary turns the test red instead of leaving the refusal to the ambiguous `listTerminals` fallback. - Correct the guard's justification comment, which cited `orchestration check` as covered. `check` resolves through the `--terminal` scope and still guesses; the guard covers the implicit `--from` sender, and a structured worker is covered by the `ORCA_TERMINAL_HANDLE` baked into its child. * docs(orchestration): stop two structured-worker comments claiming guarantees the code does not give The send-time owner re-check reads `target.refusal`, the snapshot the resolver already admitted, so `decideStructuredPointerDelivery` can only agree with the resolve-time answer and `owner-not-settled-native` is unreachable from that call site. What actually fences an owner that moved is `expectedRuntimeFence`, which a handoff bumps. Say that, so nobody later drops the fence trusting a re-check that is structurally a tautology. `discardCreatedSession` was credited with retiring "a published background tab that no dispatch owns". It hides the DURABLE tab reference and closes the session; the live tab snapshot keeps the row, so the background tab this start published stays on screen until the app restarts. Same for stop and release. The comment now describes what the two calls do — including that both are no-ops on a session that was never attached, which is what makes the non-definitive-refusal path safe to reach unconditionally. * fix(orchestration): retire a structured worker's chat tab when the worker settles Starting a structured worker always publishes a real `agent-session:<id>` tab, but every settlement path only called `setSessionTabVisibility(sessionId, false)` plus `host.close(sessionId)`. That clears the DURABLE restore index and leaves the LIVE snapshot untouched, so stop, release and the half-started discard all left a dead "Claude Chat" / "Codex Chat" tab in the worktree's tab bar for the rest of the app session — five dispatches, five dead tabs — and opening one re-attached the released session, respawning a provider child outside orchestration's hold accounting. The snapshot-pruning half of `closeStructuredAgentSessionTab` is extracted into `structured-agent-session-tab-retirement.ts` and exposed on the runtime as `retireStructuredAgentSessionTabFromSnapshot`, so the user-initiated tab close and the three settlements share one implementation instead of a second copy. The settlement side is best-effort BY CONSTRUCTION: it runs only after the close is already proven, calls the runtime method optionally, and swallows any throw. It talks to no renderer, so the startup release reconciler can call it too. Nothing here can turn a proven stop into `release_unknown`. * fix(orchestration): stop a structured worker's nudges, archive and liveness from lying Five defects in the structured-worker lanes, each with the same shape: a check that answered from something other than what it claimed to measure. - The pointer lane gated a WORKER's `dispatch:` mailbox on its RUN's outstanding delivery. Delivery rows exist only for a `run:` address, so that row belongs to the coordinator — and a coordinator holds one for exactly as long as it is acting on received mail, which is when it replies to its workers. The gate is gone; there is no coordinator mailbox in this lane to protect. - `dispatch-rejected` now parks on the journal edge. A rejection consumes no mail and nothing else redrives the mailbox, so an unparked pointer left the worker idle on durable mail until unrelated mail happened to arrive. - The released journal archive bounded forward — keeping the HEAD — before capping newest-first, so a long worker's archive ended at its early exploration and dropped the answer it was released for, under a warning that said the oldest messages had gone. One newest-first pass now, and the warning is true. - The durable pointer operation id was reused on a matching BODY fingerprint, and the body names only the unread count. Two unrelated same-size batches collided, the host replayed its ledger answer as `accepted` with no turn sent, and the lane marked the new mail delivered. Reuse is keyed on the batch's message ids. - `worker-read` on a structured worker hardcoded `terminal: 'running'` and emitted no `liveness`, so a runtime that could not see the session reported the worker as alive. It now carries the observed verdict, as the PTY branch does. Also: the live journal cursor is an index into a re-derived tail window, so the page's oldest item joins its source identity — a slid window now answers `source_changed` instead of silently resuming past the items it skipped. And a stop that reached no host reports `processAction: 'none'`, after installing the host the way release already does. * fix(orchestration): stop a released structured archive claiming a close that never landed `worker-read` on a released structured worker hardcoded `liveness: 'exited'`. The archive is frozen BEFORE the close, so it proves nothing about the provider child, and the read is served for `release_state` in `releasing` / `unknown` too — the two states that exist precisely to record a close that did NOT land. A coordinator that read `exited` from a `release_unknown` worker would start a replacement over the same worktree while the original child was still attached, which is the outcome docs/reference/ssh-execution-boundary.md rule 2 exists to prevent, and it contradicts the release receipt's own "the structured session close was not proven" text. The verdict now comes from the resource row the read already holds: only a settled `released` row is `exited`, everything else is `unverifiable` — which the existing mapping renders as `terminal: 'unknown'`, the same way the live branch does. * fix(orchestration): stop a structured worker-start reporting a preamble it never delivered Two ways a structured `worker-start` handed the coordinator a receipt that did not describe the worker it got. `sendStructuredWorkerPreamble` threw only on a refusal and on `rejected`, so a submission that settled `unknown` fell through as success: the start pushed `dispatch_input: accepted` and marked the dispatch ready. `unknown` is not rare — `dispatchSafely` converts ANY thrown adapter call (provider child gone, transport dropped, ack window missed) into it, and `performSend` still returns ok. The worker then has no task spec while its coordinator blocks in `check --wait --types worker_done` until timeout. This PR's own mail lane already states the rule — "`pending` is not yet an acknowledgement; only `accepted` may consume mail" — so the preamble now applies it too, and raises `operation_unknown` for the states that prove neither delivery nor failure, which is the code `failWorkerStartWithReceipt` turns into the `outcome_unknown` receipt whose nextCommands send the coordinator to look. `rejected` stays a proven failure. `--structured` also accepted `--model` / `--effort` and dropped them: structured session creation takes no launch preferences, while `launch.receipt.effective` echoes whatever was requested either way, so `--model opus` ran on the workspace default and the receipt still said `opus`. Refused now, for the same reason `--terminal` refuses them, and the spec note records that refusal along with the new-child/new-top-level one it never mentioned. Tests: the refusal guard had no coverage at all, and `structured-mailbox-pointer-host` — where the full-timeline gate read lives — had none either; reinstating the bounded tail there left the whole repo green. Both are covered now, and the vacuous "never selects an exact provider session" case is re-pointed at the absent `ORCA_PANE_KEY` that actually keeps that selector shut. * fix(orchestration): let a structured worker actually reach the Orca CLI, and stop four settlements lying A structured worker's provider child runs `orca orchestration ...` exactly like a PTY worker's agent does, but it was handed the ambient PATH. On packaged Linux the CLI installs as `orca-ide` so it never claims GNOME Orca's /usr/bin/orca (#7904), so bare `orca` execs the screen reader and the worker can never read mail, reply or send worker_done; on packaged macOS/Windows the bundled launcher is only reachable from the app's own resources dir. The PTY lane already solves this inside `buildPtyHostEnv`; that block is now its own module and both lanes call it. Also: - a worker start that fails AFTER its session exists now discards the session, so a failed start stops stranding a dead chat tab that the durable restore index republishes on every launch; - a structured worker's resource reconciles to `released` after settlement forgot its identity, instead of answering `unverifiable` for the life of the DB; - `closeAttempted` is set only once a close is issued, so a tab-visibility failure can no longer report `closed_agent_terminal` for a running child; - `forgetSession` prunes only what the settled worker parked, not every sibling whose target momentarily fails to resolve; - release settles with an explicitly empty, warned archive when the journal is unreadable AND the session is proven exited — closing the chat tab is routine, and `archive_failed` there wedged release on evidence that could never arrive; - the new migration test uses mkdtemp and cleans up, so it stops failing Windows CI and leaking. * fix(orchestration): merge the duplicated release-receipts import The release-completion module imported ./orchestration-worker-release-receipts twice, which trips import/no-duplicates in audit:code-quality:native. The changed-file gate does not load that config, so only whole-tree CI saw it. * docs(runtime): note that a background structured tab re-publish is a no-op The activate:false branch for an already-published session returns without writing the snapshot or emitting, so it cannot re-surface a client whose mirror lost the tab. Orchestration is safe from this only incidentally. * feat(orchestration): make the worker mode the user's own default, not a flag `worker-start --structured` was an explicit opt-in that REFUSED --on, --terminal, --model/--effort and worktree-creating placements. The flag, its spec entry and the `structured` RPC param are gone: the mode now follows the user's setting for new agent tabs, so a local claude/codex worker is a structured chat session whenever the user's own default says agent tabs open as one. A setting is a preference, not a demand, so none of those combinations refuses any more. A dispatch that cannot be structured starts an ordinary PTY terminal worker and the receipt names the mode that ran and why, so the fallback is never silent: - a remote --on, an existing --terminal, a new-child/new-top-level worktree and --model/--effort are decided from the request; - the agent, TUI launch customization, Codex-on-Windows and the runtime capability are decided by the shared launch route; - WSL, remoteness and the Windows start-time gate are settled by the executing host's own agentSession.createSupport, asked once the worktree resolves and before anything is created, so a refusal is a terminal worker rather than a failed start. The decision is the renderer's, lifted rather than copied: `resolveAgentLaunchRoute`'s structured half and the settings predicate now live in shared/structured-native-chat-launch-route, which both surfaces call, and the TUI launch customization test moves to shared beside it. `getClientSettings` gains the two native-chat default booleans it was missing. No security invariant moves: the structured worker registry, bearer handle, persisted pane key, the absence of ORCA_PANE_KEY from the child env, hook attestation and lineage-derived process incarnation are untouched. * fix(orchestration): stop the worker mode leaking into the agent contract The mode a worker runs in is a runtime implementation detail. An agent should be taught the same verbs, run the same commands and read the same receipts whether it is a structured chat session or a PTY terminal — otherwise a settings-driven fallback silently changes what the agent can do. The real leak was `canDispatchSubWorkers`, which was forced false for a structured worker. That was not a wording choice: `worker-start` resolved `--from` through `showTerminal`, which needs a live PTY or renderer leaf, so a `structworker_` coordinator genuinely could not dispatch. Rather than withhold the capability, the one fact the command needs from `--from` — its worktree id — now comes from `getOrchestrationDispatchAuthority`, the same authority the pane-key and process-incarnation getters already answer structured handles from. Sub-dispatch is gated on depth alone, identically for both modes. `showTerminal` itself is deliberately NOT taught structured handles: it returns a ptyId, a leaf id and a pane runtime id, and synthesising those for a session with no PTY would hand every caller of a public terminal verb something that looks writable and is not. `inspectWorkerTerminal` already returns `terminal: null` for exactly that reason. Also neutralised three agent-visible refusals that named the worker's kind: a `worker-read --source terminal` on a worker with no terminal now names the sources that do work, and both archive refusals say "transcript output" rather than "structured chat output" (the PTY `transcript_pin` branch said "structured" too). New tests pin both properties: the two preambles are byte-identical once the handle and per-dispatch ids are normalised, and a structured coordinator starts a worker with `showTerminal` rejecting. * fix(orchestration): stop claiming a structured worker was checked for a prompt worker-show reported observation.agentWait: null for every structured worker. The field's own contract says null means Orca looked and found no wait, and absent means it never looked — and nothing looks here: a structured worker parks on a journal question item, which no terminal prompt scan can see. So null was a false negative on the one field a coordinator is explicitly told to read, and it was mode-dependent: the same worker as a PTY would have reported the wait. Absent is both the honest value and a state a PTY worker already reaches (an older host, an unreadable pane, a probe that did not answer), so it discloses nothing about which mode ran. * docs(cli): stop the worker-start spec pointing a caller at the worker kind The note said "the receipt mode field names the mode used and why", which is an instruction to read a field no verb behaves differently for — the one thing the mode was not supposed to become. It now says what a caller actually needs: the dispatch always starts, the options passed are the ones honoured, and every worker is driven the same way. The receipt still carries the mode for operators and telemetry; nothing tells an agent to look at it. * perf(orchestration): coalesce the structured redrive edge Every journal batch is a redrive candidate, because a settled turn is tombstoned rather than rewritten — there is no completed row to watch for. That is free while nothing is parked on the session, but once mail IS parked each batch re-resolved the dispatch, queried unread mail and read the host's gate facts, only to re-park because the turn was still running. A turn streaming tool calls paid that per batch. The edge now coalesces on a 300ms quiet window with a 2s starvation cap, so a streaming turn costs a handful of evaluations instead of one per batch and a settled turn still nudges promptly. Delivery semantics are untouched: the gate, the accepted/rejected/unknown handling and the retain rules all still run exactly as before, just fewer times. Nor is this the path fresh mail takes to an idle worker — that is `deliverForHandle` at enqueue time, which this does not touch — so the common case gains no latency. The mechanism is the session.tabs notify coalescer, generalised into `keyed-trailing-edge-coalescer` and called by both rather than duplicated; the session.tabs windows stay where they were, since 50ms is right for a spinner title and far too tight for a journal stream. Disposal drops the pending timer rather than flushing it, on the existing subscription disposer that every settlement already reaches, so a redrive can never fire for a session no dispatch owns. * fix(orchestration): deliver direct peer mail to a structured worker, and let a peer read it Two agent-to-agent verbs had no answer for a worker that IS a structured agent session, and both failed quietly. Mail addressed to a worker's own bearer handle — how agents mail each other outside a dispatch — fell between the lanes. The send stored durably and reported success, `getLiveTerminalPaneKey` resolved the recipient, and then neither lane claimed the mailbox: the structured resolver answered only `dispatch:` addresses, and the PTY lane refuses a structured handle outright. Nothing errored and nothing logged, so the worker never reacted and the peer waiting on a reply hung. The resolver now also answers a bare worker handle, preferring that worker's active dispatch so peer and coordinator nudges share one operation-ledger budget. A worker BETWEEN dispatches is still nudged, under a session-scoped key: a dispatch says nothing about whether delivery is safe — the idle gate and the lease fence do — and its own `check` reads exactly the direct mailbox the mail is sitting in. The dispatch caller key is left byte-identical, because the ledger is keyed on (callerKey, operationId) and reshaping it would re-mint nudges already in flight as second turns. `terminal read` had no structured branch, so the only peer-accessible read verb answered `terminal_handle_stale` for a live worker; `worker-read` is closed to a peer, which holds neither coordinator standing nor a dispatch id. It now serves the session's journal, projected to LINES and paged by the same reader the PTY tail uses, so the result stays a plain RuntimeTerminalRead and nothing an agent reads discloses which kind of worker answered. Bounding and dispatch-capability redaction are the archive path's, reused rather than rebuilt. A session that is not attached refuses with the existing not-attached code rather than returning an empty tail, which would read as "this worker has said nothing". `terminal.show` still refuses a structured handle. This is read-only on purpose: synthesising a ptyId/leafId/paneRuntimeId would hand every public terminal verb something that looks writable and is not. * fix(orchestration): stop three PTY-only probes answering for structured sessions Three defects, one shape: a probe that enumerates PTYs or resolves a pane was standing in for a question that is not about panes at all. `worktree rm` destroyed a live structured worker. `killAllProcessesForWorktree` sweeps the renderer graph, the provider session list and the local pty-registry, and a structured session is registered on none of them — so all three counted zero, nothing errored, and removal deleted the checkout out from under a running provider child, which kept running with its `cwd` gone while the dispatch still reported the worker live and exact. A fourth sweep now asks what the other three cannot: membership by `location.workspaceId`, which covers a plain chat session as well as a dispatched worker, and liveness by the same `live`/`unverifiable`/`exited` observation the rest of the structured surface uses. It REFUSES a destructive removal rather than auto-closing, on the same bargain and the same `--force` escape hatch as the unstopped-PTY gate — this is the verb that deletes a user's work, and a running agent is exactly what they would want to be told about. Force closes the sessions properly instead of orphaning a child. Best-effort reconciliation callers are excluded: they repair state, delete nothing, and must never be failed closed. Twelve coordinator verbs failed for a structured worker running as itself. `isLiveTerminalHandle` validated `ORCA_TERMINAL_HANDLE` with `terminal.show`, a PTY verb whose leaf lookup misses for a session that never had a pane; the pane remint that would have recovered it needs `ORCA_PANE_KEY`, which a structured child deliberately does not carry, so every one of them died on `no_active_sender_terminal` — including the ones the worker's own dispatch preamble tells it to run. The identity question gets its own probe, `terminal.resolveIdentity`: a handle and a boolean and nothing writable. `terminal.show` still refuses a structured handle, because synthesising ptyId/leafId/paneRuntimeId would hand every public terminal verb something that looks writable and is not. The PTY half is byte-for-byte today's check, `getLiveLeafForHandle` included, so its `rendererGraphEpoch` re-check still runs — that check is the whole reason the sender is validated at all, and a cheaper probe would have quietly started passing stale post-reload handles. A host that predates the method answers `method_not_found` and the client falls back to `terminal.show`, which is correct for that host: one without the identity probe has no structured workers to miss. `dispatch --inject` reported `no_agent_detected` for a structured worker, because `isTerminalRunningAgent` reaches `getLiveLeaf`, throws, and the catch returns false. A structured session IS the agent; there is no foreground process to recognise, so it answers before the PTY probes rather than through them. Also: a Run whose coordinator is structured now gets its `run:` mail. Both lanes declined and neither logged — the PTY lane because the owner is structured, the structured lane because the mailbox was not `dispatch:` — so each half believed the other owned it. The PTY lane's reasoning (a coordinator blocks in `check --wait`, where a waiter preempts pointer delivery) does not transfer: a structured coordinator is a chat session whose turn ends. Its `run:` deliveries take the `hasOutstandingRunDelivery` gate the PTY lane applies for exactly that mailbox, and only for that mailbox. The test that would have caught the twelve drives the CLI with `ORCA_TERMINAL_HANDLE=structworker_…` and no `--from`. Every existing orchestration CLI test passes `--from` explicitly, so the resolver a real worker goes through was never exercised — which is why the suite stayed green while the preamble failed on its first line. Two files crossed their line ceiling and are split rather than waived: `worktree-teardown.ts` sheds its two PTY-surface sweeps and the deadline arithmetic they share, and `orchestration.test.ts` — which sat exactly on 800 — sheds the two caller-identity suites this change rewrote. * fix(orchestration): arm the takeover signal for structured chat input `worker-release` closed a structured session a user had taken over, losing work mid-conversation, while `orchestration-worker-specs.ts:106` promised "Never closes … user-taken-over terminals". Every guard was already correct and simply never armed. `reportWorkerTerminalUserInput` has exactly one call site — the real-user-input signal on a PTY connection — so structured chat input never reached `orchestration.workerTerminalUserInput`, `markWorkerTerminalUserOwned` never ran, ownership stayed `owned` instead of `user_owned`, `retainedReason` never returned `user_takeover`, and `stopStructuredWorker` proceeded. The durable flag is reused as-is rather than given a parallel mechanism: it exists precisely so a restart, an SSH drop or a renderer remount cannot erase a takeover. Addressed by SESSION, never by pane key. A structured worker's pane key is a random identity credential — anyone holding it can read and consume that worker's mailbox, and session ids are embedded in tab ids in plain text — so it stays in main and the runtime resolves the session to it. Handing it to a renderer to echo back would make it learnable by anyone who can see a chat pane. The RPC gains an optional `sessionId` alongside `paneKey`; a host that predates it rejects the call, and the report is already best-effort with a catch, so that host degrades to exactly today's behaviour rather than failing a send. The signal fires from the composer send hook and only past `accepted`: the outbox dispatcher retries, and orchestration's own pointer nudges never pass through the composer at all — so neither can be mistaken for a user takeover. * fix(orchestration): reach structured workers through group addresses `orca orchestration send --to @all` — and `@idle`, `@claude`, `@codex`, `@worktree:<id>` — silently skipped every structured worker. Recipients came from `listTerminals`, which enumerates leaves and PTYs, and a structured session is on neither. The exclusion happened BEFORE per-recipient resolution, so the `SendRecipientWarning` machinery never ran: the caller got exit 0 and a receipt naming the workers that did resolve, and a broadcast "stop work" or "base moved" reached the PTY workers and nobody else. With every worker structured it degraded to `terminal_not_found`, which reads as "the group was empty". Fixed at the group-resolution site rather than inside `listTerminals`. That result is published to paired mobile and remote clients and to consumers that assume a summary carries a `ptyId` or is writable, so widening it is its own change under `docs/reference/remote-wire-compatibility.md`. Group addressing reads exactly three fields off a recipient, and `RuntimeTerminalSummary` already satisfies them structurally, so the resolver widens to that smaller shape and nothing here invents a `worktreePath` or a `branch`. Candidates are liveness- gated on the same observation the rest of the structured surface uses — mail addressed to a settled worker would be stored for a lane that will never deliver it — and once a worker IS a candidate, the existing per-recipient warnings cover it, so an unresolvable one is reported rather than dropped. `@idle` needed more than enumeration: `getAgentStatusForHandle` reaches a PTY probe that throws for a handle with no pane, so a structured worker would have been enumerated and then silently dropped from the one group address that selects on status. It now answers from the session's journal — and off the FULL reduced timeline, never a bounded tail. Settlement tombstones the running turn's lifecycle item rather than rewriting it, so on any page-sized read a long tool-calling turn looks identical to an idle session; `@idle` would then broadcast into a running turn, which Codex answers with `turn already running` and Claude queues behind. An unreadable session answers null, never idle. `terminal list` and `worktree ps` still omit structured workers; that is the wire-visible half and is deliberately not in this change. * fix(orchestration): refuse rather than guess when a chat session has no identity An ordinary structured chat session — not a dispatched worker — is spawned with no `ORCA_TERMINAL_HANDLE`, because `structuredWorkerChildIdentityEnv` early- returns for any session outside the worker registry. `orca orchestration check` then fell through to `terminal.resolveActive`, which picks the focused tab's active leaf or the first leaf in the worktree. It returned a valid handle, so nothing errored — and `check` is destructive by default, so it consumed another pane's oldest unacknowledged batch and marked it read. The rightful worker never saw that mail. `requireUnambiguous` does not fix this, only narrows it: it refuses when MULTIPLE leaves could be meant, and with exactly one terminal pane in the worktree the guess still resolves — to a sibling. "One terminal pane plus one chat tab" is a normal layout, so the common case stayed broken. The pinned test is that case. So the child now carries `ORCA_STRUCTURED_SESSION`, and every remaining route that would GUESS an implicit terminal refuses on it with an error naming the flag to pass. The marker names NOTHING — no handle, no pane key, no session id, no token — which is the whole reason it is safe: it cannot be replayed, cannot impersonate, and cannot flow into the hook-attestation, agent-row or mobile-projection pipelines the way a pane key would. That makes it a different decision from withholding `ORCA_PANE_KEY`, not a reversal of it. It also grants no CLI reachability, so packaged builds keep exactly today's exposure. The comment at `orca-runtime-adopt-terminal-orphans-from-inventory.ts` that justified the guess — "a structured worker is covered instead by the `ORCA_TERMINAL_HANDLE` its child is spawned with" — was true only for dispatched workers and false for every other structured session, a population this branch creates. It now says which case it covers and which case it does not. * fix(orchestration): stop two surfaces lying about a worker with no terminal `orca terminal <verb>` answered `terminal_handle_stale` for a structured worker's handle. Nothing went stale: the session is live and simply has no terminal, and it never had one — so callers acted on a false claim and went hunting for a remint that cannot exist. The refusal now carries its own code and names the structured equivalents (`orca terminal read`, `worker-read --source transcript`, `orca orchestration send`), so an agent that lands there learns what to run rather than what failed. A PTY handle that really did go stale keeps the old error, and so does a session this runtime no longer owns — that handle IS dead. `terminal.show` stays non-resolving: synthesising a ptyId/leafId/paneRuntimeId would hand every public terminal verb something that looks writable and is not. `orchestration-worker-specs.ts` promised "the same verbs, the same handle, and the same worker-read sources", and all three clauses were false for a worker with no terminal. A spec agents read must not carry a false promise, so it now states the limitation and the alternative that always works. Note this had to be reconciled with an invariant this branch already holds: the worker MODE must stay opaque, or a coordinator starts branching on something no verb it runs behaves differently for. So the note says "not every worker has a terminal" and points at `--source auto`/`--source transcript` WITHOUT naming a kind — the same mode-neutral wording `readStructuredWorkerOutput` already uses when it refuses `--source terminal`. Both properties are now pinned by tests, so neither can be restored by breaking the other. * fix(orchestration): close the review findings on the structured parity work Four defects and two follow-ups from the delta review. The `worktree rm` refusal was a dead end in the desktop UI. Its message matched no matcher in `classifyWorktreeForceDeleteReason`, and an ordinary desktop delete already passes `force=true` for the dirty-file skip, so classification returned null unconditionally: the toast showed raw CLI wording with no Force Delete button, and a user with a live chat session was stuck unless they knew to reach for the CLI. That is the #11960 shape `shared/worktree/removal.ts` documents, so the refusal now has its own prefix, matcher, `WorktreeForceDeleteReason` and toast copy, classified BEFORE the `force` guard and nulled once the waiver is spent — exactly how `unstopped-pty` is handled, with matcher and hint kept in the same file as that contract requires. The copy says Force Delete will close a running conversation rather than borrowing the "could not confirm" wording, because Orca watched these sessions stay attached; there is no doubt to waive. Structured `terminal read` cursors were unsound and are now refused. The PTY cursor indexes an append-only completed-line buffer with a monotone count; a session journal is a BOUNDED tail re-projected on every read, so a saved index addressed different lines as the journal grew — and `truncated` could never fire to say so, because it tests `cursor < oldestCursor` and `oldestCursor` was always 0. A poller got wrong or duplicated lines under `truncated:false`. Separately, a streaming turn's lines counted as completed with `partialLine` hardcoded empty, so a mid-turn cursor consumed a half-written line whose growth was never redelivered — the `"hel"`/`"hello"` hazard the PTY reader guards against. The journal does have stable item identity, but `terminal.read`'s cursor is a number on the wire and cannot carry it, so a cursor read now refuses and names `worker-read --source transcript`, which already has that contract including `source_changed`. No cursor space is advertised either: `nextCursor` is null and the cursor fields are absent, rather than claiming an index the next read cannot honour. The header claim that all four fields kept their meanings was true of the shape and false of the invariants; it now says which ones hold. Two fixes had no test at their real seam, which is the same failure that produced this whole set — the runtime tested directly, the seam tested by neither. The group-addressing test hand-composed the recipient list itself, so deleting the composition at the call site left it green; it now drives `sendGroupMessage` with no PTY terminals at all. Nothing referenced `isLiveStructuredAgent`, so the `dispatch --inject` fix had no red-then-green at all; it now has one driving `RuntimeTerminalAgentPresence.isRunning`. Both were ablated and confirmed red. Folder-workspace removals sweep and kill PTYs without `requirePhysicalStop`, so the structured sweep no-opped there and left a live session bound to a workspace about to be forgotten. They now close best-effort under an explicit `closeStructuredSessions` flag, kept separate from `requirePhysicalStop` because the two questions differ: that one asks whether a stop must be PROVEN before files are touched, and it is what licenses a refusal. These paths do not refuse — the root is shared so no checkout vanishes under the child, and one of them is a never-throw forget a refusal would wedge. Reconciliation sweeps set neither and still close nothing. Also: the force close is raced against the same sweep deadline every PTY surface is bounded by, so a wedged provider close reports the timeout instead of hanging `worktree rm --force` forever; and the refusal now prints a count and the providers instead of raw session ids, which our own marker rationale treats as one tab-id hop from a credential. * test: pin structured-session close on the folder-workspace removal path The folder and orphan removal callers now pass closeStructuredSessions so a live structured session is closed best-effort rather than left bound to a workspace Orca has forgotten. These three exact-args characterizations describe that call and had not been updated. * fix(orchestration): stop the structured worker-read cursor misdelivering silently `worker-read --source transcript` for a structured worker fingerprinted only the oldest item's id, so `source_changed` fired when the window slid off the front and could NOT fire when the page's contents changed under a stable oldest item — which is the normal case, because the journal is a reduced, mutable timeline. A `running` tool item gains its `[tool result]` at its original sequence once later items exist, the 60ms delta coalescer revises a message in place, settlement can rewrite an item smaller, and a pending approval projects to null until it resolves and then appears in the MIDDLE of the array. Two silent failures followed, both returning ok. Omission: a caller handed a coalesced `hel`, resuming past it, never received the revision to `hello world` — the same defect we refused to ship on the terminal read path, already shipped here. Duplication: a resolved approval inserted ahead of a saved index, which was still accepted, so the caller re-read content it already had. The blast radius is the coordinator polling loop, the verb's primary consumer. The anchor is now the oldest item PLUS every item whose projected message sits below the caller's position, by id and revision. `createWorkerOutputSourceIdentity` already takes an arbitrary string array and the cursor is already opaque base64url carrying its own position, so neither the wire shape nor the `source_changed` contract changes. Prefix-scoped rather than whole-page deliberately: fingerprinting every item on the page would flip the identity every 60ms with the coalescer window during an active turn, making the cursor unusable exactly while the worker is working — that trades a silent bug for a useless verb. Tail growth the caller has not read cannot invalidate; any change to what it already holds does. Position-dependence is safe because `p` rides in the same opaque payload as the identity, and the returned cursor is stamped with the identity of its own end, which is precisely what the next read recomputes. The frozen archive keeps a constant identity: no item can be revised under a caller there, so it has no prefix to fingerprint. Both silent shapes are pinned across a page boundary with the journal mutating between reads — a static-journal test passes either way. Two ablations at the real call site: reverting to the oldest-item-only anchor turns both red, and widening the prefix to the whole page turns the tail-growth case red, which is what proves the scoping is real in both directions. * docs(orchestration): stop the structured terminal-read refusal recommending a dead end The refusal told a peer to "page it with `orca orchestration worker-read --source transcript`", which is wrong three ways and this file said so itself: its own header explains that this verb exists BECAUSE `worker-read` demands a dispatch id and coordinator standing "a peer does not have" — and then the refusal sent that same peer there. The verb it named is also a window index over the same bounded page, so it is not a paging answer even for a caller who can reach it; under load it now answers `source_changed` on most polls, which is better than the silent hole it had before but still not what the sentence promised. The refusal now says what actually works — the tail is bounded and newest-last, so poll it and diff — and names no alternative, because there is none. That is the honest framing: a durable cursor is not achievable here at all, rather than blocked on the wire shape. The journal is a reduced, MUTABLE timeline: an item's projected text changes at its original sequence after later items exist, the delta coalescer revises repeatedly, settlement can rewrite an item smaller, a pending approval renders as nothing and then as something, and `sequence` resets on epoch rollover. No index, numeric or opaque, survives that. So the docstring's "pagination with a real anchor lives on `worker-read --source transcript`" is gone too — there is no real anchor there — and the file now records why no windowed alternative should be built later: a broken cursor fails UNSAFE, as a silent hole in a poller's output, while diffing a bounded tail fails safe as a harmless re-read, and a second paging-shaped verb would invite the PTY assumptions this one cannot honour. The test asserted the old advice, so it now pins the contract instead: the refusal explains the working approach and must never name `worker-read`. `worker-read --source transcript` remains a good bounded snapshot for a coordinator reading a worker it dispatched; only the "or page it with" clause was false. * fix(i18n): add the missing worktree-removal agent-session refusal string The structured-session removal refusal introduced a translate() key with no en.json entry. Nothing local catches that: typecheck passes, and the full suite passes, because a missing key falls back to its inline default at runtime. Only verify:localization-catalog fails on it, which is why CI's static analysis reddened on a branch that was green everywhere else. Fallback wording mirrors the sibling unstoppedPtyLive string, since the two refusals differ only in what is still running and what Force Delete does to it. * test(codex): expect the no-identity marker on an unregistered structured child The refuse-rather-than-guess marker landed after these expectations were written, and all three assert exact env equality on the unregistered path — the one branch that now carries ORCA_STRUCTURED_SESSION. One of the two files was added by this same branch, so this is a self-inflicted drift; the other predates the branch and was broken by it. The marker's presence is still pinned positively by structured-worker-child-identity-env.test.ts and the CLI's orchestration-structured-session-no-identity.test.ts, so relaxing these three exact-equality checks loses no coverage of the security property. * fix(orchestration): require exit evidence before settling structured close --------- Co-authored-by: Merge Sim <sim@local>	2026-09-06 20:24:21 -07:00

Seven of them (everything except `orchestration`, which #16904 rewrites) were command catalogs that had drifted from the binary. This PR rewrites them so an agent reads the outcome, the done bar, and the safe-failure rule first, loads reference material only at the step that needs it, and never sees a command or flag the installed CLI does not define. ## What changed - **Seven guides rewritten** to one standard: outcome spine first (Result / Done / Safe failure), conditions instead of case lists, one done bar, one autonomy envelope, references loaded at the point of use via `skills get <topic> --full`, every runnable invocation spelled `ORCA`. `orca-cli` is 424→260 always-loaded lines with three references (browser, automations, publishing); `orca-per-workspace-env` is 794→397 with five (provider-vercel, ssh-host, docker-ssh, windows-scripts, failure-modes). - **Defects fixed in shipped guides:** `emulator camera` (no such command), iOS `permissions` (backend refuses it), Android pane described as "in development" (shipped in June), `relayGracePeriodSeconds: 0` documented as immediate teardown (it is unbounded), doctor `ok: true` hiding `warn`, an SSH exemplar setting both `jumpHost` and `proxyCommand`, a provisioned-root fetch from `origin`, the Linear unconfirmed-write rule keyed on four verbs when ten emit it. Linear and emulator descriptions dropped embedded commands and angle-bracket placeholders (651→329, 732→404 chars). - **Generator bundles references.** `skill-guides/<name>/references/*.md` is appended to `--full`; `skills get` help says compact by default, full with references. - **Stubs single-authored.** The resolver ladder, placeholder rule, and older-binary fallback shared by all eight installable `SKILL.md` files come from one `skill-stubs/_shared/cli-resolution.md` fragment composed by the generator. Projections were byte-identical before the content fixes. - **Guards:** every `ORCA <cmd>` and flag in every guide and reference resolves against `COMMAND_SPECS` (this found the camera defect); descriptions ≤1024 chars with no angle-bracket tokens; reference routing checked both directions; an always-loaded size ratchet (300 lines) that guides may leave but never join. `orchestration` (440 lines on main) is recorded as an exception until #16904 lands its kernel. ## Relationship to #16904 Split out of #16904 so that PR carries only the orchestration guide. On main, `terminal send` has no `--wait-submit` / `--retry-request` and the orchestration kernel still carries the resolver ladder and worktree-selector rule, so this branch pins `accepted: true` for handoff receipts and leaves the orchestration pins where main has them. The merge in either direction is mechanical: #16904 rebased on this becomes a one-file `orchestration.md` change plus dropping the two exceptions. ## Standard Compound Engineering's portable skill-authoring guidance (outcome spine, conditions not cases, pinned fragile commands with an ordered hatch, references at point of use). NVIDIA SkillEvaluator Tier 1 (`schema,pii,license,quality,unicode,lint`) was run on every guide; its deterministic checks pass, its template nudges (Instructions/Examples sections, 50–150 char descriptions) do not apply to Orca's stub architecture and were not applied. ## Testing - `pnpm typecheck:tsc:cli` clean; `check:code-quality:changed` and `check:react-doctor:changed` 0 findings - `pnpm verify:bundled-skill-guides` and skill-bundle manifest verify clean - vitest over `config/scripts`, `src/cli/skill-guide-cli-parity.test.ts`, `src/cli/skills.test.ts`, `src/cli/specs/skills.test.ts`, `src/cli/help.test.ts`, `src/main/skills`: 240 files / 2,019 pass - Live smoke on the built CLI of every `skills get <topic>` and `--full`, every emulator, linear, and vm verb named in the guides, and every projection's resolver, GNOME warning, and bounded fallback (done on the #16904 branch before the split; the guide bodies are identical here except the send-receipt vocabulary noted above) ## Deferred product decisions Merging `orca-emulator` and `orca-emulator-android` into one skill with a platform branch; collapsing `linear-tickets` to a guide alias; a `skills get --reference <name>` selector so a gate table can load one file; a fresh-agent routing eval before trimming the `orca-cli` (1,015 chars) and `orchestration` descriptions, whose quoted triggers each fixed a routing misroute.	2026-09-06 16:10:16 -04:00
