Brennan Benson	4c2a2ac3d9	A Claude chat shows the turns made outside it (#31615) ... * A Claude chat shows the turns made outside it When a Claude chat's agent next opens, turns written to the same conversation elsewhere (claude --resume in a terminal) are appended once, in order, under the existing "Continued outside this chat." divider. Streamed reply and thinking rows are now keyed by their source block (message id and block index), which Claude also saves on each transcript row, so the chat can tell which saved rows it already shows. The read goes back from the end of the transcript only to the chat's saved turn-end leaf, replays the rows through Claude's own translator in an isolated sink, and commits them in one settlement that writes nothing if the chat moved. Imported prompts are display-only and never settle a send; any failure opens the chat normally. * test(claude): name the transcript row shapes the catch-up test builds * fix(claude): read a catch-up row's uuid once as a string * fix(claude): parse transcript tail rows without type assertions * refactor(native-chat): share the catch-up open runner across agents The Codex catch-up's agent-neutral parts move to one module: the open-time envelope (its own deadline and cancellation, never gating the open), the bounded staged batch, the single settlement commit that re-checks the journal before writing, and the "Continued outside this chat." divider. Codex keeps only how it reads its saved turns and what the chat already holds. No behavior change; the other agents' catch-up builds on this instead of copying it. * refactor(claude): catch up through the shared history catch-up runner * chore: remove unrelated pnpm executable metadata * refactor(native-chat): the catch-up runner reads the chat's view only when the agent asks * chore: remove regenerated pnpm executable metadata * fix(native-chat): the catch-up deadline also bounds waiting for its commit to be written A journal write barrier that never settled after the import was admitted held the provider's open past the catch-up deadline. The wait now ends with the deadline or the open's cancellation, like every other step. * test: type the history catch-up sink fixture without assertions * fix(native-chat): bound and revoke history preparation * test(claude): expect source block identity in stream cadence * fix(claude): preserve final output and history coverage * feat(native-chat): validate expected saved items during history catch-up * fix(claude): integrate conditional history settlement * fix(claude): use new content and provider prompt identities for catch-up * fix(claude): retain qualified completed leaves through session exit * fix(claude): preserve unresolved membership for recovered follow-ups * test(claude): use fork epoch reason for rewind preservation * fix(claude): consolidate translator sink type imports * fix(claude): preserve source message times during catch-up * fix(claude): narrow staged history mutations to items * test: bound Claude retained-leaf catch-up work * fix(claude): settle imported work at source boundaries * test(claude): keep shared journal harness portable * test(mobile): await editor listener cleanup before snapshot * test: isolate retained slice measurements and accept closed socket EPIPE	2026-10-24 00:51:33 -07:00
Brennan Benson	1c411db2a5	fix(native-chat): a refused steer leaves its turn as the chat's latest request (#29907) ... A steer Codex answered into a turn that then ended without taking it is rejected and moved to the thread, so the sidebar verdict and the completion feed treated it as a refused request of its own and reported it in place of the turn it joined.	2026-10-17 13:12:26 -07:00
Brennan Benson	98f0193afb	feat(native-chat): show agent-written visuals inline in structured chats (#26103) ... * feat(native-chat): visual directive grammar and host read for a chat's visuals folder A shared grammar for the ::orca-visual{file="..." title="..."} reply line, the per-chat visuals folder location on the owning host, and the agentSession.readVisual runtime method that reads one visual with lexical and canonical containment, a 512 KiB bounded read and UTF-8 refusal. * feat(native-chat): render chat visuals inline and in the right sidebar Native-chat assistant replies render a ::orca-visual{...} line as the chat's HTML visual in an opaque, scripts-only sandboxed frame: CSP first, the host frame navigation guard registered before content runs, live theme without a reload, fitted height, links opened in the viewer's browser only from a real gesture, lazy mount, and one muted line when the visual cannot be shown. Open in sidebar shows the same frame in the right sidebar, widened while it is open and restored after. * fix(native-chat): visual CI fixes, shared height governor, live-turn streaming hold Registers agentSession.readVisual from the methods index so the structured method file stays under its line budget, replaces reflective reads with checked narrowing, moves the pure height governor to src/shared for mobile, and holds a half-written directive tail while the turn works (structured text rows carry no running state). * fix(native-chat): harden the visual read and link opening Re-checks after the open that the chat's visuals folder is still the real directory at Orca's path, reports unexpected filesystem faults by code without host paths, and lets one click in a visual open at most one page. * fix(native-chat): keep visual lines out of plain-text reply surfaces; review fixes One shared helper drops visual lines (outside fenced code) from reply text where it becomes plain text: the structured status summary that feeds the sidebar row, dashboard, notifications, phone rows and handoffs, and AI Vault reply previews. Review fixes: height also counts a pinned body's overflow, only the live frontier row holds a half-written visual line, the runaway-height stop needs the same step repeated, and any host refusal evicts the cached revision. * fix(native-chat): resolve the visuals folder without the removed journal-paths helper Main removed the per-chat journal paths and the journal database's state directory; the visuals folder keeps the same sha256 layout on its own and the read method uses the profile state directory the chat host is opened in. * fix(native-chat): review round 2 fixes; copy a reply without its visual lines Reply previews in Agent Session History drop visual lines per text part before lines are folded; the frame adds a body's overflow only when the body really overflows; fence tracking follows CommonMark closers and openers; the copy button copies a reply without visual lines; a coded read fault keeps its cause. * fix(native-chat): update the frame's theme ref after render; read the visuals folder pair at once * test(native-chat): declare agentSession.readVisual on the cross-version agent-session surface * fix(native-chat): copying a reply keeps its code blocks and indentation Removing visual lines now closes only the gap each removal leaves, instead of collapsing blank lines across the whole reply and trimming its indentation; the visuals folder is checked parent first again so a broken path answers the same way every time.	2026-10-07 11:11:35 -07:00
Brennan BensonandClaude	d60f999f94	fix(native-chat): turn facts come from the turn record, and /compact is a message the chat sends (#23059) ... * 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. The fresh-scan tests now go through `queryWindowsProcessDescendants({ fresh: true })`, the teardown path that still depends on that contract. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(native-chat): stop citing the removed handoff in lifecycle comments Six comments still named the handoff coordinator, a handoff suspend, or a terminal-owned session as live participants in the flows they describe. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(native-chat): type the stalled snapshot drain without a cast Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(native-chat): pin that a start dead before proving owes no settlement The removed restart handoff test pinned this branch; nothing else did. 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. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(native-chat): type the stand-in roster decoder without a cast Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(codex): name the pinned rollout lookup for what it does With the terminal handoff gone, the module named codex-tui-rollout-proof holds only the pinned rollout lookup that structured Codex launches use to resume a thread, so the name described code that no longer exists. 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. * fix(native-chat): name a chat write by its target, not the owner generation A write carried the fence of the last frame the pane read, and the host refused it unless that fence was still current. An idle release and the restart after it each move the fence, and the release publishes nothing, so a send after a release was refused "Expected runtime fence 1; the session is at 3", and a Stop queued behind a cold start was refused as stale. Every write already names what it acts on: a send its conversation, a cancel its turn, a prompt answer its item revision, a rewind its epoch; an option is last-writer-wins. So admission stops comparing the client's fence, and the rebase that papered over one restart (admitAtResumedFence, resumedFromFence) goes with it. The writer-lease check stays, and so does the attach's compare-and-swap. Frames now stamp the fence read when each frame is sent instead of a copy each subscriber kept, which went stale on the same release. * fix(native-chat): every journal append reaches the chats that are open A journal write and its delivery to open readers were two calls, and some writers made only the first. A failed start whose lease could not be handed back, a provider revision with no frame behind it, and eviction's settlement were all journaled without reaching an open chat. A journal handle now reports every durable change, and the host's session map binds that report to the session's readers when the handle is set. Writers no longer publish what they append; the per-writer publish calls are deleted. * test(native-chat): an epoch replacement reaches the open chat * test(native-chat): each row reaches an open chat once, and a live handle enters only through the map * 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. * perf(native-chat): a publish behind a delivered commit reads nothing Each commit now delivers itself, so the publish a provider frame still sends afterwards found every reader caught up but still read rows and rebuilt the timeline for each one. A caught-up reader now skips the read. * test(native-chat): state why the teardown test's fake journal is safe to cast * docs(native-chat): say mutation admission checks only the writer lease * docs(native-chat): drop the send rebase from comments that still described it * fix(native-chat): a message is accepted, then delivered A send to a chat with no running agent restarted the agent inside the send call, before the message was recorded, so the client waited for the whole start and a failed restart refused the message. Claude held prompts sent during startup, and those could settle as "unconfirmed". A send is now accepted inside the session's serialized queue: one ledger row and one submission row marked handoverRecorded, published, answered pending. A per-session delivery loop exists while a message is queued. It starts the agent through the same serialized attach a hold uses, waits outside the queue for a Claude child to prove its start, and hands the oldest queued message over as its own serialized step, writing dispatch{pending} before the adapter call. A start it needed and did not get writes one error-tone row and rejects every queued message with the same words; a start Stop cancelled writes none. Settlement follows from the rows. A queued message is provably unwritten, so a close, an eviction or an exit rejects it. A handed-over message stays in doubt. A queued row at or below the sequence a handle found when it opened was left by an earlier process and is rejected at open, with no latch. Stop withdraws queued messages with no writer lease and no fence. An attach failure keeps the conversation open, and the attach adopts its journal. Owed work counts the loop and queued rows. A compaction or rewind found prepared when a conversation opens was started under a child this process no longer has, so the open settles it rather than leaving it to refuse every send until a view attaches. The open cursor is scoped to its epoch, because sequences restart when an epoch is replaced. Deleted: restart-before-admission, recordFailedRestart, the fence rebase, Claude's startup gate, the attach's forget on failure and its own crash boundary. Clients without agent-session.accepted-send.v1 get their reply held until the handover; the desktop and paired desktop lists advertise it. * fix(native-chat): settle queued messages only for the child that ended A child that proved its start and then exited before its message was handed over left the message queued: the exit settlement returned early when nothing else was in flight. Delivery then started another child for it, and a child that died the same way started another, without end and without a row. A retried settlement for an earlier generation, run by the attach that delivery started, did the opposite: with that generation's turn unfinished it rejected the message queued for the child being attached. The settlement now takes the rejection for queued messages from its caller. The unexpected exit and the eviction pass one, and it applies even with no other work in flight; the retry for an earlier generation passes none. * fix(native-chat): an adoption that fails to import keeps the conversation open The attach now writes into the conversation's own open journal, but a failed transcript import still closed it as if it were the attach's provisional one. The conversation stayed indexed with a closed journal, so every later send answered "could not be recorded" and every attach failed again until the app restarted. The import now closes only a journal the attach opened for itself. * perf(native-chat): the recovering open reads the journal once Every conversation open now goes through the recovering open, including the read restore of every chat at startup, which used to replay its journal once. The recovering open replayed it twice: once to probe it and again inside the open. The probe is now handed to the open as its load. * fix(native-chat): an attach that fails after indexing its child leaves no child behind A failed attach now keeps the conversation open, but a failure after `onAttached` indexed the child (the rewind or compaction recovery, or the attach's own success record) left that entry claiming a child the failure path had already released. The next send found the phantom, skipped the start, and wrote at a fence the journal had moved past, so the message stayed queued for good. The entry now drops the released child and its event sink, and follows the record's fence, as a failure before indexing already did. * fix(native-chat): a withdrawn message shows no error, and a rejection outlasts the send's answer The error strip for a message the host accepted and then did not deliver matched the entry before the outbox reconciled, so a Stop's withdrawal, which the reconcile drops, showed "Orca could not send your message" with nothing to retry. It now reads the reconciled entry. A rejection the journal records before the send's own pending answer lands is final as well: that answer no longer puts the entry back to dispatching with no Retry. * fix(orchestration): a structured worker whose agent outlasts the preamble wait is left unknown, not torn down The preamble waits for its submission to be delivered while the worker's agent starts. When that wait ran out it threw operation_unknown, and the failed-start teardown then closed the session, which rejected the very preamble the host was about to deliver. It now reports a turn start nobody observed yet: the worker is start-unknown with its session kept, the host delivers the preamble when the agent starts, and the worker's report settles the dispatch as for any unobserved start. The receipt no longer suggests reading a screen a structured worker lacks. * fix(native-chat): a message rejected while its chat was closed reads as not sent A remount reads an entry it left dispatching as unconfirmed. When the journal had rejected it meanwhile, as a failed start or a quit now does, the reconcile left it unconfirmed: it blocked every later message behind a Retry and no reason, and the delivery probe, seeing the journal already answered, never ran. The reconcile now settles it as rejected like a dispatching one. * test(orchestration): name why the readiness settlement fakes are cast * fix(native-chat): keep each pane's own fence on frames so a failed restart is not resent * docs(native-chat): drop the fence from the admission the send effects run behind * docs(native-chat): give the fence move on release the reason that still holds * docs(native-chat): stop citing a write fence check in launch and mailbox comments Three places still gave the removed fence check as a reason: the launch replay said admission puts the ledger ahead of the fence, the launch surface said a send must name the lease it was admitted against, and the direct-mailbox path said the lease fence decides whether delivery is safe. Admission now checks only the writer lease. * refactor(native-chat): the provider child is its own record A conversation now outlives any number of provider children, so the child is one record on the conversation's entry instead of five loose fields beside its journal. It is written in one place: indexed only once an attach has fully succeeded, and ended through one function that an exit, a failed re-attach, a Stop and an eviction all share, matched on the child's generation and fence. - A failed attach writes no child, so there is nothing to unwind: the field unwind and the fence patch after it are gone. - Conversation writes read the record's fence, the way mutation admission already does; a child's own writes use its fence. The four stored-fence patches, and the settlement retry's overwrite of the conversation's fence, are gone. - The owed wind-down is its own tombstone, carrying the child it is owed for, and is no longer dropped when an attach replaced the whole entry. - Stop on a child still proving its start stops only the child: its lease goes back and the chat is told it is idle, but the journal, the holders and the readers stay. Close is that stop plus the conversation's close. - The settlement retry uses the conversation's own journal, opened through the host's one open. * fix(native-chat): the delivery loop alone settles a message its start or child failed A queued message was settled by whichever path happened to end the child first: the loop, the unexpected exit, eviction's work settlement, the open's leftover rule, and the startup branch that rejected every pending row. That gave two failure rows with different tones for one start, a loop that could hand over to a different child than the one it waited on, and a Claude start that died while starting reading unlike every other failed start. - The loop remembers the child it waited on. At handover, if that child is gone or replaced, it reads how it ended: a Stop continues; anything else writes one failure row and rejects every queued message with the same words, then stops. A child still starting whose start the adapter says did not land fails the same way. The exit, eviction and the settlement retry only settle the handed-over and legacy rows of the child that ended. - One failure row, always an error, keyed by the start. A start a view began that dies with nothing queued writes the same row through the same builder, so a second report revises it. - The open no longer rejects leftovers; the loop's first step does, and the open wakes it. - `awaitStarted` answers why a start did not land, so the row says it even when the loop sees the failure before the exit is processed. - Quit closes every conversation the way closing a chat does: what is still queued is rejected as closed, with or without a child, and a start the loop already has in flight is waited for so the child it produces is stopped rather than left behind. * refactor(native-chat): a stopped child ends on the one reading of its stop The eviction step reads a stop's result through `stopAgentSessionProviderRoot` and hands that verdict to the child's ending, so the host never forms a second view of whether the root is gone. Every ending carries it: a stop's comes from that reading, an exit's root is gone by definition, and a failed re-attach passes what its release saw. The end-of-child record can therefore also carry a stop whose root was not seen to go, which nothing ends on yet. * feat(native-chat): the host says it accepts a send before any agent has it The host now lists agent-session.accepted-send.v1 among its own runtime capabilities, the same string capable clients already send. A client can then tell a host that answers a send at acceptance, and admits a Stop with no writer before a turn starts, from an older one that still restarts the agent inside the send. Additive: an older client ignores a capability it does not know. * refactor(native-chat): an attach never opens a journal of its own The attach adopts the conversation's open journal, which outlives it, so it no longer opens one for a direct caller either. That leaves nothing for a failed adopted import to close, and the flag that told the two cases apart is gone. Tests that attach without a host open the conversation the way a host does. * fix(native-chat): a moved fence resends nothing on a host that accepts first The outbox treated any fence change as a new owner: it dropped the answer of a send in flight, queued that send to go out again under the same id, and unblocked a refused head. On an older host that is how a send the restart refused, unrecorded, gets another try. On a host that records every send before it starts an agent, a fence moves because that start ran, so the same rule resent into every failed start. With a fence stamped on every frame, that became a loop. The outbox now reacts to a fence change only when the host has not advertised that it accepts a send before any agent has it. On such a host, only a Retry or a new send goes out, and a failed start reaches the client as a rejected message it keeps with its Retry. Against an older host, or before one has answered, the outbox behaves as it did. Desktop and paired web share this hook. * refactor(native-chat): a child's end says whether the user or the host stopped it The end-of-child record's cause now tells a user's Stop from the host stopping the child for a cause of its own: `user-stop` and `host-stop` replace `stop`. The delivery loop goes on after a user's Stop, as before, and fails the start it was waiting on after a host stop, with the one error row and every queued message rejected, in the stop's reason when it gave one. The reason stays description only. Stop passes `user-stop`; nothing passes `host-stop` yet. * fix(native-chat): a chat whose only work is a queued message is not offered for resume A message accepted while the agent was starting counts as working in the chat, and quit rejects it as never sent. The teardown snapshot read the same working rule, so a relaunch offered to resume a chat whose agent never had the message. The snapshot now reads only what was handed over. * fix(native-chat): the conversation outlives its agent Opening a chat no longer starts its agent. A conversation is reached through one host accessor that opens its journal at rest, and a send is what starts the agent, through the delivery loop. One idle sweep, every five minutes, stops an agent that has been quiet for thirty minutes and owes no work, then drops an open journal handle that is only a cache. Its record, tab, status row and readers stay. - hold and release are no-ops; hold still builds the host for shipped mobile builds. - The holders, the holds, the release clock and the exit respawn are deleted. - Options, the model list, the goal and the context meter answer at rest; a model pick at rest is recorded as intent for the next start. - Compact, rewind, clear and goal changes start the agent first. A send does too when a rewind is still in doubt after the conversation opens. - Orchestration routes mail and group addresses on ownership (the record plus the chat tab), not on whether the process runs. An open dispatch keeps its worker running. - The restart continuation is a send; Resume all holds each slot until the message is handed over or rejected. - A read error never replaces a loaded transcript, and shows the host's own words. * test(native-chat): type the queued-message fixtures in the resume-offer tests * fix(native-chat): a start that dies while a message waits on it is that message's failed start Opening a chat's tab starts an agent for the view, and a send accepted meanwhile waits on it. When that start died, its exit wrote the start's error row and left the message queued, so the delivery loop started a second agent into the same failure and wrote a second row. A child's end now records where the conversation's journal stood, and the loop settles a message accepted before a failed start ended with that start: one row, under its key, and no second start. A message sent after the failure still gets a fresh start. * fix(native-chat): a request that failed reads as failed A structured chat whose only message the agent's start refused read as a green finish, and a cancelled structured turn did too: the host published a verdict only for turn records, and structured rows carried no `interrupted`. The host projection now reads the session's latest request: its turn's outcome, or `failure` for a send the agent or its start refused. A send that was withdrawn, or left undelivered by a restart or a close, fails nobody and makes nothing listable. The ingest publishes `interrupted` as the hook lanes do, and every reader decodes the verdict through one accessor, so a failure reads Failed on the dot, the rollups, history and `worktree ps`, behaves like a cancellation in every clean-finish policy, and notifies as "failed". * docs(native-chat): say what an attach's open conversation and unconfirmed ids are now * test(native-chat): a verdict change republishes the mobile status projection * refactor(native-chat): the store's retention trigger keeps its flag compare A verdict change always moves the completion clock the same check already reads, so a second verdict compare there caught nothing new. * test(native-chat): a user message the provider journaled keeps its session listed * test(native-chat): pin what a failed start settles, and what a resume offer names A view's child that dies while a sent message waits settles that message only when it died starting and no child has taken its place: a proven child's crash, or a second start since, gets the message delivered. The resume offer names the handed-over message, never a newer one still queued. * test(native-chat): the failed-start pins fail on what the message became, not on a timeout * fix(native-chat): a restart offer ends when the chat's agent starts again The offer used to end only when the chat's newest user message changed, because opening a chat started its agent and that start could not be told apart from real activity. Opening a chat starts nothing now, so the host reads the fact it already publishes: a chat's status row goes from not host-owned to host-owned exactly when its agent is started. At that edge the offer and any failure record for the chat are withdrawn, unless the start is a resume action's own (its continuation is the oldest undelivered message). A continuation and a message racing to be first are decided at acceptance: the continuation is refused, quietly and with nothing filed, when any other message was accepted since the restart. A failed continuation start leaves the offer retryable, and each resume action sends its own message id. Deleted: the newest-user-message comparison, its journal reader, the continuation filter, and the failure ledger's own "answered by the chat" check. The marker still carries its message id for one release, so the previous build can read it. * fix(runtime): end a transcript stream when its client unsubscribes Desktop: the IPC subscription controller was dropped as soon as the streaming handler returned, which for most streams is right after it binds. A later runtime:unsubscribe then found nothing to abort, so the host kept the subscriber and derived and sent every publish to a channel no one listened to. The controller now lives until the renderer unsubscribes, resubscribes the same id, or goes away. Mobile: disposing an agentSession.subscribe stream now sends agentSession.unsubscribe with the stream's frame id, so the host ends that subscriber and leaves a sibling stream on the same socket running. The direct path now passes the frame id the relay path already passed. * fix(native-chat): a late provider-session update keeps a failed recovery record failed A provider-session heartbeat that rewrites a completed recovery record kept its interrupted flag but dropped the outcome it was copied with, so a live failed checkpoint read as a clean finish until the next status write. * test(orchestration): the preamble's host stub is typed, not cast The preamble send now takes only what it reads of the host, the send, the settlement wait and the record's fence, so its test builds that host with real types instead of `as never`. * test(native-chat): the terminal-bell check asserts the renamed verdict field The bell notification test still checked for agentInterrupted, which no longer exists, so it could not catch a verdict leaking into a bell dispatch. * fix(native-chat): a failed turn ranks like a completion for attention Attention readers (completion time, Smart Sort, sticky retention, Cmd+J Recent) now demote only a turn the user stopped. A failure is news the user has not seen, so it keeps its completion time, ranks in the Done class, stays retained after its pane goes away, and a retained failure reads failed in the worktree rollup instead of done. Clean-finish policy (hibernation, pane ownership, the value moment) still treats a failure like a stop. The retention trigger compares verdicts again: success -> failure no longer moves the completion clock. * fix(native-chat): one fact ends a restart offer: the chat moved on since the restart The offer is live while no other message has been accepted in the chat since the restart and its agent has not proved a start since. The offer list, the resume's reservation check and the continuation's acceptance check all read that one fact, so a message whose start then failed withdraws the offer too, and a stale click finds nothing to act on. The fact is read off the conversation's open handle, which the restart closed, so it is retired durably whenever it may have changed: a message accepted, a start proven. A close and reopen within the same run therefore cannot bring the offer back. A continuation rejected before it reached the agent does not count, so a retry after a failed start still runs. Deleted: the quit-time gate on withdrawal, which changed nothing because the withdrawal and the quit's own offer write share one queue; the per-action "withdrawn" flag and the separate acceptance check it paired with. * test(native-chat): an older build reads the restart offer this build records The offer lives in a file the previous release reads after a downgrade. Pin that against the pinned release's own capsule, and run the lane when the marker or the capsule changes. * fix(native-chat): read a restart offer against where the journal stood when it was taken "Since the restart" was read off the conversation's open handle, which the idle sweep closes: after a reopen, a message the user had already sent looked older than the handle and the withdrawn offer came back. The offer now records the journal position (epoch and sequence) at the moment it is taken, and a message accepted after that position, or a journal on another epoch, means the chat moved on. That is derived from the journal, so it holds across any number of closes and reopens. An older build's offer has no position; only a start withdraws it. Because the message half is now durable, the offer is no longer rewritten in the recovery file on every accepted message; a proven start still writes it, since only the host that saw the start knows of it. * test(native-chat): wait for the listing's retire write before reading the recovery file * refactor(native-chat): every journal row states which turn it belongs to Rows gain a turn scope stated by the write that creates them: the open root turn, or the conversation. A queued message takes its scope from its handover. Rows stored before scopes existed are placed on replay by the root turn open when they were created, so no persisted state is needed for them. Rewind keeps each retained row's scope and producer, so a subagent's row stays its own. * fix(native-chat): keep the terminal-backed chat's read error over its local echoes Messages winning over a read error is right for the structured chat, whose read retries and whose messages came from the transcript. The terminal-backed view assembles its list from local echoes too (a launch prompt, a pending send), so a failed read there showed only those bubbles and no error. Only the structured pane now keeps messages over an error. * fix(native-chat): a start retries the exit settlement a failed journal write left owed An agent exit whose journal settlement write failed releases the lease latched until a retry lands. Reopening the chat used to be that retry; with reveal now only opening the journal, nothing retried it before the next app launch, and every send was refused. The start the send needs now runs the retry first, where the attach would. * fix(native-chat): a failed main agent reads failed while its subagents still work The verdict is now read from the main agent's own state, not the folded row: a main agent that is done and failed has a verdict even while its subagents keep the row working. Without mainAgent (history, worktree ps, older hosts) the old combined-done rule stands. Display marks the verdict through agentVerdictDisplayMark: a failure outranks every combined state on the agent's dot, label, tab badge, dashboard and activity rows; a stop marks only a done row, so a successful or stopped main agent with live subagents still reads working. Subagent rows keep their own state. The worktree card, terminal tab and Cmd+J rollups share one pane fold and rank a pending question, then failed, then working, monitoring, interrupted and done. worktree ps publishes the main agent's outcome on a working row, and the mobile mirror reads it. The store's change check, the paired-client mirror's equality and its epoch now see a verdict change on a working row, which otherwise moves no state or clock and left the worktree card reading working. Clean-finish policy is unchanged: a working row is never hibernated and has no completion time. * perf(native-chat): answer the owner check without opening the chat Worktree activation calls agentSession.handoffStatus for every chat tab in the worktree, and the answer comes from the session record alone. Reaching it through the accessor opened each resting chat's journal (a full read, the crash-boundary write and a restored status publish), then kept it open for the idle window. It now checks the record and the adapter's support, as before this series, and opens nothing. * fix(native-chat): a read waiting on the session lock opens nothing once quit began The accessor checked for quit before queueing the open, so a read queued behind a session task ran its open after teardown had begun and indexed a journal no teardown step would close. The check now runs at the open itself. * test(native-chat): pin stated turn scopes, the upcast of unscoped rows, and rewind attribution * fix(native-chat): /compact is a message the chat sends, run as a turn of its own The conversation command RPC now accepts /compact into the queue like any send and answers once it is handed over. The delivery loop opens the command's own turn, starts the provider on it, and waits for the provider's end off the session's queue, so messages typed meanwhile are held and delivered after it, even when it fails. It settles by re-reading the journal: a child that died meanwhile already wrote the verdict. Stop ends the command at once. The 180 s completion window, the unconfirmed row and the recovery of an older build's compaction record are gone; that record no longer gates anything. On Codex the provider turn the command opens is claimed into the command's turn. * fix(native-chat): read a failed resume's chat before calling it retryable Whether a failed resume is retryable is the offer's own rule: the chat has not moved on since the restart, read from its journal. The failure list read it only for a chat already open, so once the idle sweep closed a chat the user had moved on in, its failure showed Retry again, and the click did nothing. The list now opens the failed chats first, as the offer list does. * test(native-chat): type the provider event sink the settlement test reaches for * docs(native-chat): the worktree ps outcome comment no longer claims old hosts send it The field is new: an old host sends no outcome at all, so a reader falls back to interrupted. The removed clause said old hosts send it on done rows, which never shipped. * fix(native-chat): say the structured read keeps trying only where it does The structured pane's "Orca keeps trying to load it" line never showed: the view state filled in an untranslated fallback whenever the read error had no text, and the empty state prefers any message. The view state now leaves the message out, so the structured pane shows that line and the terminal-backed pane its own translated one. Mobile's structured lane does not resubscribe after an error frame, so it no longer makes the claim. * fix(native-chat): rows group under the turn their record names, not the one above them Each row's turn is the turn its stated scope names, anchored on the entry that opened it, or on the turn itself when the provider opened it unasked. So /compact groups its own rows and the previous turn is untouched, a message typed into a running turn joins it, and a provider-resumed turn folds under its own Worked-for. A row reporting how a turn ended, an error or the compaction separator, never folds. Desktop and mobile read the same keys; a host that states no scope keeps today's positional grouping. * test(native-chat): await the send's settlement instead of polling for the start The at-rest send tests polled for the provider start with vi.waitFor's one-second default, which a loaded machine outran. They now await the host's own settlement of the message. * docs(native-chat): the status-store listing rule names provider-journaled user messages * fix(native-chat): a restart offer resumes any time after the quit, and knows its own continuations The continuation's message id was dated by the quit, and the ledger refuses a new id dated more than a day back, so Resume or Retry a day after quitting was always refused (on main too). It is now dated by the resume action. Telling a rejected continuation from the user's own message read the operation ledger, whose rows expire after about a day; after that a failed resume stopped being retryable. The offer now records the continuation each action sends on its own capsule entry, bounded to the newest 16, so the ids end with the offer. The ledger read is deleted. * fix(native-chat): a /compact is not a request the sidebar, notifications or restart resume report The sidebar's prompt, preview, verdict and instant, the turn-completion feed, and the restart-resume marker read past a conversation command and its turn to the last real request, so a /compact neither notifies nor re-dates the row, and a command in flight is never offered as work to resume. An older client shown a command's turn in the legacy form names the session's own agent. * fix(orchestration): route no mail to a structured worker its orchestration released A structured worker is routed on ownership, and a resting worker's lease is released, so ownership held while its chat tab stayed listed. A worker the coordinator abandoned and then released, found at rest by the release, therefore still took peer mail and @worktree: broadcasts, and each one restarted its agent. Routing now also reads the orchestration's own resource row: once it is released, direct mail, group addressing and worker-show's addressable answer drop the worker, as they would a terminal worker whose terminal closed. The chat tab stays, and nothing new is stored. * fix(native-chat): a failed retry names the user's prompt, not Orca's continuation A resume's continuation is written to the chat before its start, so after a failed attempt the chat's newest user message is that rejected continuation. A second failure then showed Orca's own restart text as the chat's prompt. A retry now keeps the prompt its first failure named. * test(native-chat): pin what a conversation command's admission refuses at rest and at handover * test(native-chat): tests merged from the base state which turn their rows belong to * fix(native-chat): a refused send notifies failed through the completion feed The host's completion feed followed only the newest turn, so a send the agent or its start refused, which creates no turn, read Failed on its row but sent no notification. The feed now follows the session's latest request, read from the projection the status feed already makes for the commit: a turn keeps its id, a refused send is named by its journal item key. It announces only while the session is idle, as the row reports a verdict, so queued sends refused one commit at a time notify once, and a withdrawn send falls back to a request already announced. * fix(orchestration): read the released row optionally, as the authority does worker-show's observation called the row lookup directly, which a runtime double without it threw on and failed the structured tab-retirement release. * chore(native-chat): one import per module and no unexplained casts in the turn-scope changes * test(claude): pin which turn a Claude row joins, including a subagent's after the turn ends * fix(native-chat): the status bar drops a restart offer the chat moved on from The renderer re-read the host's restart offer only when a failed chat showed activity, so after a message withdrew a pending offer the host answered no chats while the status bar kept counting one, and clicking it opened nothing. The same watch now covers pending offers: a status change in an offered chat asks the host again, once. * fix(native-chat): a refused steer is read from the turn its handover named The latest-request reader decided whether a refused send had joined a running turn by comparing host clocks: its handover time against the previous turn's end. The handover row now states the turn it delivered into, so the reader reads that instead and the clock comparison goes. A journal written before handover rows stated a turn is scoped on replay from the turn open when each row was written, which can differ from the clock reading only when a send and a turn's end share a millisecond. * fix(mobile): the native-chat controller contract carries the turn journal The controller and overlay already pass nativeChatTurnJournal, but the contract type never declared it, so mobile failed to typecheck. * fix(native-chat): the live turn is the running turn, not the newest user row A turn the provider opened on its own (a background wake, a resumed turn) anchors on its own record, but the list still treated the newest user row as the live turn. While such a turn ran, the settled user turn before it lost its duration and the running turn's own rows were drawn as settled, so its tool calls lost their live state. nativeChatTurnMembership now answers both questions from the turn record: each row's turn, and the live turn (the running root turn's anchor, else the newest user row, which is also all an unscoped host has). Desktop and mobile key liveness, the timing clock and the live status's row on it. * test(native-chat): a turn the provider opened keeps its own clock Pins that the local turn clock follows the live turn, so a wake after a settled turn does not restart that turn's clock when no host durations are recorded. * fix(native-chat): a running turn no message opened draws its status on no row Its live status belongs to the transcript-tail indicator alone. Once it settles, its duration draws at its first row as before; a running turn a message opened still draws on that message. * fix(native-chat): every copy of a row carries the main agent's own status History entries, sleep records and `worktree ps` rows carried a flattened top-level `outcome`, copied under different gates and without the main agent's clock. They now carry `mainAgent` (state, outcome, stateStartedAt), the type the live row already persists and sends, and every copy site takes it with `interrupted` through one function, `agentVerdictFields`. - The accessor reads `mainAgent` then the legacy flag; the mobile mirror matches it line for line. - Sleep records admit `mainAgent` with `normalizeMainAgentStatusField`, so a malformed value drops the field, never the record. - Mobile dates a main agent that failed under live subagents by its own clock, as desktop does, and its row equality compares `mainAgent`. - The activity feed reads a history entry's own `mainAgent` instead of rebuilding one; the sync key and history equality compare it. * test(native-chat): pin the worktree ps verdict across host and phone versions Pairs the real v1.4.212 host and phone row reader with this build: an old phone reads a new host's rows by `interrupted`, a new phone reads an old host's rows (no `mainAgent`) the same way, and a new phone reads a failure under live subagents as Failed, dated by `mainAgent.stateStartedAt`. The release checkout now carries the phone's self-contained row reader, and the lane runs when the `worktree ps` row producers change. * test(mobile): name the parity table's row for its role * test(native-chat): a roster of idle or finished children does not keep an agent awake The sweep reads owed background work through the shared child-work liveness that upstream's release clock adopted; a child that went idle or finished is not work the agent still owes. * fix(native-chat): a request that settles while the user is asked something notifies once The completion edge waited for an idle session, and a pending prompt (including a subagent's approval) is not idle. Structured chat has no other attention producer, so a main turn that finished while a subagent waited on the user sent nothing until the prompt was answered. The edge now waits only on owed work (a running turn or an unanswered send), which the projection reports even beneath a pending prompt. A request that settles with a prompt pending announces once; the renderer words it "needs input" from the host status mirror's `attention`, and answering the prompt keeps the same request identity, so it does not announce again. The wire shape is unchanged. * fix(orchestration): a task dispatched into a resting structured worker keeps it running The sweep's open-dispatch check read only the worker-start dispatch that owns the worker's terminal resource, so a task later dispatched to the same worker (orchestration dispatch --to, which writes a dispatch with no worker row) did not count: after thirty quiet minutes the worker was stopped while that task was open, and its coordinator read exited. Any unsettled dispatch addressed to the worker's process incarnation now counts, derived from the existing rows. * fix(native-chat): a command's wait ends when its child does The delivery loop waited for a /compact only on the adapter's compaction tracker, which learns of the child's end only on some exit paths: a Codex exit or close, and a Claude close, never reach it. The wait then never ended, so nothing queued behind the command was delivered again, Stop had no child to answer through, and the tracker's leftover entry refused the next /compact. Every way a child ends passes endProviderChild, so the host now offers a per-child end signal there. The loop races the tracker against it (the dead-generation settlement has already written the command's verdict), and on that end asks every adapter to release the command, so a later command runs and no later provider turn is claimed into the dead one. The adapters' own exit-time releases were unreachable (Codex) or covered one path of several (Claude), and are removed. The Codex RPC test harness moves to its own module so the exit can be driven through the real adapter's connection callback. * fix(native-chat): keep refusing sends during a command on an older host An older host's controller still refuses a send while a conversation command runs, so dropping the client's block turned every message typed during /compact into a 'not sent' row with Retry there. The block stays for hosts that do not run the command as a send-path turn, and goes only for those that do. The signal is one the client already holds: a host that runs /compact on the send path states a turn scope on every journal row it writes, the same fact turn membership uses to tell it from an older host. Both now read it from one predicate. On an empty conversation, or one whose rows all predate the upgrade, the signal is absent until the command's own entry streams in, so that brief window keeps the old local refusal; no capability or wire field is added. * docs(native-chat): comments stop describing the hold this PR removed Eight comments still justified orderings and teardown choices by a viewer or dispatch hold that pinned the provider child. Nothing holds any more; the orderings stand for the binding's redrive subscription and parked mail, and a chat's agent runs from a send until the idle sweep rests it. Comment-only. * fix(native-chat): the completion says when the user is being asked A request that settles while a prompt waits on the user was worded "needs input" from the renderer's status-feed mirror. Remote clients receive the status and completion streams over separate sockets, so they can arrive in either order and the wording could be wrong both ways. The host already knows at emit time, so the completion now carries an optional `awaitingUser: true` in that case and omits it otherwise. The renderer words the notification from that field alone and no longer reads the status mirror. Old clients ignore the field and word by outcome; old hosts never send it. * fix(native-chat): a restart offer keeps the start its own continuation made Whose start ended an offer was decided at read time, from whether the offer's continuation was still the queued message. Once the provider refused that continuation, the child it had started read as someone else's start, so the offer ended and its failure showed no Retry. The delivery loop now records which queued message a start is for on the in-memory child, and the child's end carries it; the offer counts a start as its own when that message is one of its continuations. * fix(native-chat): a rewound turn still names the message that opened it A Codex rewind rebuilds the epoch without submissions, so each sent message survives only under its provider key. The kept turn records still named the submission key, so each turn anchored on itself and its rows grouped apart from the message that opened it. The rewind now renames the turn's opener along with the message. * fix(native-chat): Stop ends only the command it names Stop on a command turn abandoned whatever compaction the session had pending, so a late Stop for an earlier /compact cancelled the one running now. The tracker now ends a command only when the Stop names its turn, and the cancel reply reports whether it did. * fix(native-chat): an agent gets a full idle window after its owed work ends The sweep measured quiet only from the last journal row, so once a subagent, command, monitor or dispatch that had outlived the window ended, the agent was stopped at the next tick. A child can read done before the lead's wake-up turn writes anything, and stopping in that gap loses the wake-up. The sweep now counts owed work it observes as activity, which gives the agent the full window afterwards, as the release clock it replaced did. * test(claude): the options-read fixture runs a live child The fixture marked its conversation running with a hasProviderChild field the session type does not have, so the read took the at-rest path and refused a session with no record. It now carries a child, which is what the read checks. * test(native-chat): host tests reach its collaborators through a typed seam The rest-test rig and three test files read the host's private members with Reflect.get and cast the result. The host now exposes one test-only accessor, collaboratorsForTests(), and the subscribers class a subscriberCountForTests() beside its existing retainedActivityCountForTests(), so the tests are checked against the real types and the casts are gone. * fix(worktree-status): a departed agent's failure yields to live work on the worktree card A retained failed agent has no expiry, so ranking it with a live failure pinned the card to Failed over other panes' live work. It now ranks below working, monitoring and permission, and above every finished outcome. * refactor(orchestration): one owner answers a structured worker's custody Routing, group addressing, worker-show and the idle sweep each composed their own reading of whether orchestration still holds a structured worker, so each new obligation or retirement state had to be added to every reader. structured-worker-custody now derives both answers from the worker-terminal list state coordinators see in worker-list: addressable is owned and not released, and owed work is an active custody or an unsettled task dispatched to the same incarnation. The owner's state is read through the remote dispatch attachment too, as the terminal transfer lookup already does. Behaviour is unchanged; a settled worker awaiting its coordinator still rests. * refactor(orchestration): owed work is an open dispatch on the worker's incarnation A supervised worker's own dispatch context stays open exactly while the worker is active, so the separate active-custody branch only repeated it. Owed work is now one fact, which also states the policy that a worker awaiting its coordinator's decision may rest, and both custody decisions are written once at the top of the module. * docs(agent-status): a departed agent's failure ranks below live work on the worktree card * fix(native-chat): a restart offer knows its continuations by a tag in their id The offer recorded each continuation id in a list on its capsule entry, capped at 16, and a running action's id in memory. Both could disagree with the journal: past the cap an old rejected continuation read as the chat moving on, and a crash during a retry restored the failure's older entry, which lacked the retry's id. Each continuation id now carries a tag derived from the offer (its teardown and chat), then the action's own part, so any continuation of this offer, queued or rejected, is recognised from the journal row and the marker alone. The persisted list, its cap and the in-memory action map are deleted; the agent-start withdrawal keeps an offer whose own continuation the start was for, read against the stored marker. * test(runtime): the legacy-worker reveal test judges its stale snapshot inside the wait The tui-idle probe reads through readTerminal, which now awaits the structured worker check before the PTY read, so the probe's snapshot request starts a microtask later. vi.waitFor missed it on its first check and polled again at 50 ms, the same moment the wait's own 50 ms timeout fired. The stale snapshot then resolved after the wait had already timed out, so the test passed without judging it, and the rejection landed before any handler was attached. Vitest reported that as an unhandled error and failed the shard. Polling every 1 ms sees the request within a few ms, so the snapshot is judged while the wait is still pending. * fix(native-chat): a message held behind /compact is drawn where it was handed over A message typed while /compact runs was drawn above the compaction's result, between itself and its own answer. The reducer kept every item at the sequence and timestamp of the row that created it, and a queued message is created at acceptance, long before the command it waits behind writes its result. The phone orders by that sequence and the desktop by that timestamp, so both put the message first. A queued message now takes its position from its handover row, the same row that already states its turn scope. Everything the agent did before the handover, a command it waited behind included, draws above it. This holds for every held message, not only /compact's, and needs no client change: every client, older builds included, reads the position the host publishes. A live batch already carries the item when its dispatch row lands, and history pages cut the reduced timeline by sequence, so paging stays contiguous. * fix(native-chat): a phone's send during /compact answers without waiting out the compaction A client that predates accepted-send replies, which is every phone build, has its send reply held until the host hands the message over. A message sent during /compact is not handed over until the compaction ends, so the phone's 15 s request timeout fired first and showed the message as unconfirmed. That wait now also ends once the message is queued behind a running command. This is read from the journal's running turn and needs no new state. Every other wait still ends at the handover: behind a starting child or an ordinary turn, and for restart resume, the command front door and orchestration, which keep the plain handover point. * perf(native-chat): a rewind places provider items with one pass over the merged rows A Codex rewind gives each provider item the old epoch never held the turn record for its provider turn. It found that record by scanning every merged row, restoring each row's body, once per provider item. That is quadratic, and it runs on the host's main thread up to the journal's 10,000-row cap, twice per rewind. A rewind record written before rows carried their scope holds no scope for any provider item, so it paid the full cost. The merge now indexes turn records by provider turn id once, keeping the first match as the scan did, and each provider item looks its record up. * fix(native-chat): a view never restarts a chat whose last start failed A Claude chat whose CLI exits during startup left one red row per start, and every time a view bound to it (the chat opening right after its create died, or the user switching back to it) the hold started the CLI again, so the same launch-failure row repeated. Only a send retries a failed start now, the same rule provider-exit recovery already applied; the rule lives in one predicate the hold, exit recovery and the delivery loop share. * fix(native-chat): a message waiting behind /compact is drawn after it until it is sent A message sent while /compact runs is placed where it was handed over. It was still drawn where it was accepted until then. /compact writes its result one step before the handover, so for that step the waiting message sat above the compaction's separator. A message the host accepted but has not handed over is not part of the conversation yet, so both clients now draw it after everything the agent has done. The shared projection moves it to the end, which is the order the phone draws. The desktop ranks it with the other not-yet-sent rows, after the streaming preview. At handover it takes its place from its handover row, which is also after the separator, so it never appears above the compaction it waited for. * fix(native-chat): the idle sweep reads owed work every tick Owed work counted as activity, but the sweep read it only once the idle window had elapsed, so it refreshed the clock at most once a window. Work that ended just before the next read left the agent to be stopped at that read, moments after the work ended, which is the gap the refresh was meant to cover. The sweep now reads owed work on every tick for a started agent, so the window always runs from the last tick that saw work owed. * fix(native-chat): a continuation handed to the agent stays sent The offer read its own continuation as not reaching the agent while its dispatch was pending, which also covered one already handed over and still unanswered. When the wait for that answer ended first, the failure it filed read as retryable, and a retry sent a second continuation to an agent that may have acted on the first. Only a continuation still queued, or rejected, is now read as unsent. * test(native-chat): start the child the loop waits on with an attach, not a second view A view no longer starts a child whose last start failed, so the R2 case that waits on a child started since the failure now gets that child from a client attach, the one non-send starter left. * fix(native-chat): settle a gone generation's turn wherever a conversation opens A send that opens a chat this process had not read yet (after a crash, from a phone or the CLI) went through the delivery open, which never settled what the dead generation left running; only the read restore and a successful acquire did. When the send's start then failed, the turn stayed running for every reader. The settlement now runs in the one journal open, at the crash boundary, for every opener except an acquisition, which settles from the evidence it read before its reserve; the read restore's separate step is gone. * test(native-chat): prove the next child's start settles the turn an earlier child left The R1 case lost its only settlement assertion when the latch it checked was deleted. It now seeds the running turn the earlier child left and asserts it ends at the exit's receipt, with the exit's row, before the message is handed to the new child. * test(native-chat): count a failed start's rows by row, not by text Comparing the set of texts passed when two different rows carried the same words, which is the duplicate the test exists to catch. * test(cross-version): load the phone row readers without mobile's toolchain Vite transforms a file against its nearest tsconfig, and mobile/tsconfig.json extends expo/tsconfig.base.json, which the root-only cross-version lane never installs. The worktree ps verdict suite imported the current phone row reader from mobile/ directly, so CI failed with TSConfckParseError before any test ran. The harness now imports a copy of the working-tree reader placed under the checkout cache, where the root tsconfig applies, as it already does for the release checkout's copy. Both readers are still the real files. * test(cross-version): keep the checkout path-guard message and justify the copy import's cast * fix(native-chat): a command ends only by its own provider answer or its child's end Stop no longer settles a conversation command. It interrupts it like any turn, and when the provider cannot take that (Codex has not opened the command's turn yet, or Claude refuses the interrupt) it stops the child, whose dead-generation settlement writes the verdict. The pending command now lives on the provider child's own session instead of an adapter-wide map keyed by session, so it dies with the child and nothing has to release it. Claude's /compact is sent under a uuid the slot records, and only a root result naming that input (or naming none) ends it; its outcome is read with the ordinary result reading, so a stopped /compact is a cancellation. * fix(native-chat): a command's settle answers its message before ending its turn The two writes are not one batch. Writing the message's answer first means a crash between them leaves a running command turn, which the stale-turn sweep already settles, instead of an ended turn whose message reads as in flight forever. The settle now writes only while the command turn is still running. * fix(native-chat): "Worked for" counts from the handover, not the send A message held behind /compact, or behind a cold start, used to count the wait as the agent's work, although its row is drawn at the handover. Every handed-over submission's turn, the command's own included, now starts at the handover row's instant, falling back to the send time for a host that recorded none. * test(native-chat): give the failed-start and stale-turn waits a loaded runner's budget * test(native-chat): the interrupted create's own retry continues again The merge of main's lease-latch fix replaced that test's retry of the interrupted create, under its own operation id, with a fresh start whose result nothing read. That fresh start passes with the released-reservation continuation deleted, so the case the fix exists for went untested. The retry and its assertion are main's again. * docs(native-chat): three comments that still had views starting agents A start with nothing queued now comes from a command, goal change or rewind; an interrupted compaction left alone would refuse every send, so no agent would ever start to finish it; and a current host raises the unattached read refusal only once quit began, with the attach window belonging to an older host. * test(native-chat): pin the open's and the send's start and row counts, however the view binds Opening a fresh chat whose starts fail makes one start and one row, with two views bound before or after the create's child died; one send makes one more of each. * fix(native-chat): a second Stop on a command ends its child; one compaction verdict for every provider A Stop's note now names itself in its key, so a later Stop on a command still running reads, from the journal, that the provider was already asked and never answered, and stops the child instead of interrupting again. Nothing is held in memory for it. Adds the rule both translators will read a compaction's end by: only a compaction the provider reported is a success; none after Orca's interrupt is a cancellation; anything else is a failure. A real Claude capture, pinned as a fixture, is why: a stopped /compact ends in the same success result as a finished one. * test(native-chat): a reader's open settles the turn a failed exit settlement left running An exit whose settlement write failed leaves its turn running in the open journal. PR 1's open now settles it, and this pins the two reads that reach it here: a reader reopening a chat the idle sweep closed, and a read that opens the chat before the restart restore reaches it. * test(native-chat): the view-start test's starting window outlasts two subscriptions on a loaded runner A subscription reads the conversation before it returns, so under load the two views took longer than the create child's 300 ms start, which then exited before the test checked that it had not. The child now takes a second to fail. * fix(native-chat): settle a gone generation's turn at every open but an acquisition's The journal open skipped the settlement whenever the lease read reserved or live, to leave an acquisition's own open to the acquisition. But a lease a crashed process left in recovery also reads live, until the next acquire resolves it. A send that opened such a chat, from a phone or the CLI after a crash on a host that could not prove the old owner gone, skipped the settlement; when its start then failed, the dead turn stayed running for every reader. The acquisition now says it is the opener, and every other open settles, whatever the lease still claims. * test(native-chat): hold the create's start open until the views bind The "view binds while the create is still starting" case gave the create a 300 ms head start and asserted the views bound before it died. On a loaded runner the holds took longer, the create's exit landed first, and the case failed its own precondition. The create's initialize now waits on a gate the test releases once the views are bound. * refactor(native-chat): the provider's translator ends a command's turn; the loop holds no command state A conversation command is now a turn of the provider child's own journal pipeline. The adapter-wide tracker, its promise and the loop's settle step are gone. - Codex: the translator claims the provider turn that carries the command, scopes its rows to the command's turn, and writes the command's end in the same batch that settles that turn. Codex's own compaction marker is the success row. - Claude: the command's turn is the translator's open turn until the result that answers the /compact input ends it. The command's own frames, such as the continuation summary, its echo and "Compaction canceled.", draw nothing. - Both read the end with the one compaction rule: success needs the provider's report of the compaction; none after Orca's interrupt is a cancellation. - The message resolves at the provider's receipt, as any send does: the Codex ack, or the Claude slash-command waiter on its result. The host writes a command's end only when the provider never took it. - The delivery loop stops while a command's turn runs, and every journal commit re-wakes it through the session's serialize, so an end that lands while a step decides to stop is never lost. A child that ends first is settled with it. * test(native-chat): pin a command's end to real /compact frames and to each path it threads The captured /compact frames drive the Claude translator's command turn: a finished compaction ends as a success with only the separator drawn; a stopped one ends as a cancellation with no failure row, and the next send answers in its own turn; a result naming another input ends nothing. The command's end is checked at each point the ordinary result path threads through: the reopen latch after a failure, the settling of a child still working, the context facts the result reports, and the provider's own error row. On the host: a message held behind a command is handed over when the command ends just as the loop stops for it, a refused command settles as a failure and the loop moves on, and a Claude child that exits mid-command settles the command and hands what waited to a fresh child. * test(native-chat): tests merged from the base state which turn their rows belong to * refactor(native-chat): drop the child-end waiter nothing waits on A command no longer waits for its child here: its turn ends from the provider's frames or from that child's settlement, and the delivery loop is woken by the commit. The waiter and its test were left from the earlier shape. * fix(native-chat): a command holds the queue only while its child runs it The delivery loop stopped whenever the journal showed a command's turn running. When the command's child ended and its settlement could not be written, that turn stayed running with no child to end it, and the loop's gate kept it from ever starting the next child, which is what settles a gone generation's leftovers. Every later send was held for good, and Stop had no child to end. The gate now holds only while the conversation has a child: with none, the command belongs to a gone generation, and the loop's start settles it like any turn a dead child left running. * fix(native-chat): a Claude /compact succeeds only on its compaction boundary The command's evidence counted Claude's `compact_result: 'success'` status as the compaction done. That status comes before the boundary that replaces the history, so a Stop landing between the two read as a finished compaction even though no boundary was ever written. Only the boundary now counts, as the rule for both providers states; the capture's finished compaction carries one, so it still reads as a success. * fix(native-chat): a Claude child's exit says why the turn it ended stopped When a Claude child exited mid-/compact, the command showed "Worked for 0s" and no reason. The child's translator ends its open turn the moment the exit is reported, stamped with the exit's instant, so by the time the exit settlement ran nothing was running. The settlement recognises a turn the exit already ended by that same instant, but the Claude lifecycle event dropped it on the way to the host, which then used its own clock, matched nothing, and wrote no row. When the clocks did agree, the row was scoped to the running turn, of which there was none, so it landed outside the turn it explained. The exit's instant now reaches the host, and the exit row belongs to the turn the exit ended: still running, or ended by the translator at that instant. * fix(native-chat): a message waiting behind /compact draws below its live activity A message sent while /compact runs waits on the host until the command ends. Both clients moved it to the end of the transcript rows, but the running turn's live activity line ("Compacting the conversation") draws after every row, so the waiting message sat between the command and its own live status. A row that is queued, and not what the live turn is for, now draws after that live activity: on desktop outside the transcript window, below the activity line; on the phone in the list footer, below the live status. A message whose own start is pending still draws above the activity that start reports. * fix(native-chat): only a running command holds a message below its live activity A message is accepted, then handed over a moment later, and in between it reads as waiting. Every message waiting behind a live turn drew below that turn's activity line, so an ordinary message sent while the agent was working crossed below "Thinking" and jumped back up once it was handed over, on desktop and phone. Only a conversation command's turn holds the queue on the host. A message now waits below the live activity only while the running turn is one a command opened, read from the entry that opened it. The phone test also typechecks, which the mobile test ratchet requires. * test(codex): the claim test names its notification params as a record * test(native-chat): a read that reaches a crashed chat before the startup reconcile settles its turn On desktop the chat on screen at relaunch reads before startup reconciles the leases, while the dead process's lease still reads live. The open settles the turn it left running anyway, and the restore that follows finds it settled. * refactor(native-chat): drop the composer's second error formatter After the merge with main, every chat write in the composer path reports its failure as a typed outcome worded by the refusal-notice table, so the send's catch sees only a local throw. The {code, message} formatter this branch added for it has no payload left to format, and its claim to be the one way a chat words a failure is no longer true. The composer send is main's again. * test(native-chat): pin the reason on a message rejected while its chat was closed The reopen test checked only that the message reads as not sent; it now also checks the Retry row carries the host's reason. * docs(native-chat): drop the removed dispatch hold from six comments A worker's session no longer takes a dispatch hold, and no release clock rests a chat by visibility; the agent-launch comments, the abandon test, the teardown test and the refusal census still said so. * test(native-chat): rest the owner-status chat through the idle sweep, not a hold The activation-gate test from #22808 put its chat at rest by holding and releasing it, and passed the release-clock grace. This branch deleted both, so the case threw before it reached its assertions. It now moves the host's clock past the idle window and lets the sweep stop the agent and close the conversation, then asserts the same owner answer and activation gate. * fix(native-chat): show the structured pane's retrying line when a read fails The read transport always hands the pane the host's words, so the error state's "Orca keeps trying to load it" line, which showed only when there were none, was never seen: the pane showed the host's text twice, as its subtitle and on the status line under it. The structured pane now always says its read keeps retrying, and the host's text stays on the status line. The terminal-backed chat is unchanged. * fix(native-chat): a send the provider never received after a restart has no verdict Restart reconciliation rejects a crash-stranded send that is absent from a trustworthy provider history with reason 'not_delivered'. Nobody failed that send, but the verdict allowlist did not name it, so after a crash the chat read Failed, was listed, and could notify "failed". Give the reason a shared constant (persisted value unchanged), add it to the no-verdict set, and treat it as an internal marker so the Retry row no longer shows the raw string. * fix(native-chat): a failed Codex compaction's late completion writes no turn of its own Codex ends a failed turn with an error and then still completes it as failed. The error settled the compaction and released its claim on the provider turn, so the completion read that turn as an ordinary one and wrote a stray record. The claim now lasts until the completion, which adds nothing to a command the error already ended. * test(native-chat): the mid-command exit case resumes its next child as a real one does The case's fake started every child as a newly created thread with the same generation. The store refuses a created link once the conversation has a thread, so the next child's start failed and wrote its own error row, which landed before or after the case read the journal. The next child now resumes the thread under its own generation, and the case reads the journal once the waiting message is delivered, which also proves the loop moved on. * test(native-chat): wait for a send's background start before the refusal oracle removes its store An accepted send wakes the delivery loop, which starts the agent in the background. The oracle's teardown disposed the loop but did not wait for that start, so its lease write could create a temp file in the store directory while the directory was being removed, failing the test with ENOTEMPTY about one run in four. The teardown now drains tracked starts before it closes the journals. * fix(native-chat): a start a message waited on gets one failure row, the delivery loop's When a queued message's start failed, two writers could report it under the same row: the delivery loop, when the adapter settled the start without proving it, and the exit settlement, when the child's exit landed. The last one won, so the chat's row could name a different cause than the one the message was rejected with, or be written twice. The exit settlement now writes the start's row only when no message is queued and the loop has not already recorded that start. A start for a command, goal change or rewind, with nothing queued, still gets its row from the exit. * fix(native-chat): a /compact whose start failed says to run /compact again The failure-words context named only /clear as a command to retry, so a /compact whose agent failed to start read "Send your message to try again." on its row, its rejected message and the command reply. The context now carries any conversation command; the host derives it from the oldest message still waiting on the provider, which is the one a failed start fails first, and the /compact reply names it directly. * fix(native-chat): a Codex /compact ends only on its turn's completion, below Codex's own error row Since only turn/completed ends a Codex turn, Codex's turn-ending `error` is a row inside the still-open command turn, and the failed completion that follows it is the command's end: completed, outcome failure, at the completion's receipt time. The command's own "Compaction failed" row was written on that completion too, so a failed /compact read its reason twice. The command turn now notes when Codex's turn-ending error for the turn it carries was written as a row, and its end then adds no second row. A retried stream error ends nothing and is not counted. The flag that let the error end the command and kept the claim until the completion is gone with the error-driven end. A test replays the captured failed compaction from the real app-server through a claimed command turn. * test(native-chat): main's crash-turn test states its row's turn, and a dead /compact settles on its recorded exit Two tests the main merge brought together: - The crash-turn test from #23456 writes a turn record through the event sink without options; every row here states its turn scope, and a turn record's is the thread. - The /compact whose exit settlement could not be written no longer stays running until the next start: main now settles an open chat from the exit it recorded, so the command reads interrupted before the next message, which is then delivered. * test(native-chat): main's new journal tests state each row's turn The crash-turn, stale-turn and sink-queue tests main added wrote rows without a turn scope, which every item write now states. Rows written inside a running turn name that turn; the sink-queue batch and a send handed over with no live turn name the thread. * fix(native-chat): draw a queued turn's message after the earlier turn's rows A message sent while A runs is written to the journal when it is sent. When the provider queues it (Claude answers it after A), A's remaining rows - its last tool run and its answer - are written after that message, and the message's own turn opens only after them. Grouping put those rows in A's turn, but the transcript still drew them in journal order, below B's bubble and bar, where A's answer read as B's reply. This is the residual #23671 left open. A message that opened a turn now draws after the earlier turns' rows the journal wrote after it, just before its own turn's rows (nativeChatTurnDrawOrder, returned by nativeChatTurnMembership as drawOrder). Desktop and mobile both draw in that order. A steer, and a message that has opened no turn yet, stay where they were written. It applies on hosts that state turn scopes and, through journal order, on older ones. * test(native-chat): run #23026's Stop tests against #23059's command turns Two of #23026's tests call APIs #23059 changed, and failed after the merge: - codex-structured-conversation-stop: a compaction now goes through adapter.compact with the command run the host wrote (#23059), not a bare turn id, and answers with the provider's receipt. With the command claimed, a Stop that names no turn while the compaction's provider turn has not opened still interrupts nothing. - main-agent-working-agreement: a provider row states its turn scope (#23059's appendItem contract); the retry and subagent rows are conversation-scoped. * fix(native-chat): typecheck main's Stop and restore-grouping code against #23059 A Stop's compaction interrupt reads the narrowed requested turn, and the restore-grouping test states whether each row reports its turn's outcome. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-29 13:17:03 -07:00
Brennan BensonandClaude	a68d62911e	fix(native-chat): the host writes chat failures for a person, with a typed fact beside them (#23116) ... * 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. The fresh-scan tests now go through `queryWindowsProcessDescendants({ fresh: true })`, the teardown path that still depends on that contract. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(native-chat): stop citing the removed handoff in lifecycle comments Six comments still named the handoff coordinator, a handoff suspend, or a terminal-owned session as live participants in the flows they describe. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(native-chat): type the stalled snapshot drain without a cast Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(native-chat): pin that a start dead before proving owes no settlement The removed restart handoff test pinned this branch; nothing else did. 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. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(native-chat): type the stand-in roster decoder without a cast Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(codex): name the pinned rollout lookup for what it does With the terminal handoff gone, the module named codex-tui-rollout-proof holds only the pinned rollout lookup that structured Codex launches use to resume a thread, so the name described code that no longer exists. 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. * fix(native-chat): name a chat write by its target, not the owner generation A write carried the fence of the last frame the pane read, and the host refused it unless that fence was still current. An idle release and the restart after it each move the fence, and the release publishes nothing, so a send after a release was refused "Expected runtime fence 1; the session is at 3", and a Stop queued behind a cold start was refused as stale. Every write already names what it acts on: a send its conversation, a cancel its turn, a prompt answer its item revision, a rewind its epoch; an option is last-writer-wins. So admission stops comparing the client's fence, and the rebase that papered over one restart (admitAtResumedFence, resumedFromFence) goes with it. The writer-lease check stays, and so does the attach's compare-and-swap. Frames now stamp the fence read when each frame is sent instead of a copy each subscriber kept, which went stale on the same release. * fix(native-chat): every journal append reaches the chats that are open A journal write and its delivery to open readers were two calls, and some writers made only the first. A failed start whose lease could not be handed back, a provider revision with no frame behind it, and eviction's settlement were all journaled without reaching an open chat. A journal handle now reports every durable change, and the host's session map binds that report to the session's readers when the handle is set. Writers no longer publish what they append; the per-writer publish calls are deleted. * test(native-chat): an epoch replacement reaches the open chat * test(native-chat): each row reaches an open chat once, and a live handle enters only through the map * 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. * perf(native-chat): a publish behind a delivered commit reads nothing Each commit now delivers itself, so the publish a provider frame still sends afterwards found every reader caught up but still read rows and rebuilt the timeline for each one. A caught-up reader now skips the read. * test(native-chat): state why the teardown test's fake journal is safe to cast * docs(native-chat): say mutation admission checks only the writer lease * docs(native-chat): drop the send rebase from comments that still described it * fix(native-chat): a message is accepted, then delivered A send to a chat with no running agent restarted the agent inside the send call, before the message was recorded, so the client waited for the whole start and a failed restart refused the message. Claude held prompts sent during startup, and those could settle as "unconfirmed". A send is now accepted inside the session's serialized queue: one ledger row and one submission row marked handoverRecorded, published, answered pending. A per-session delivery loop exists while a message is queued. It starts the agent through the same serialized attach a hold uses, waits outside the queue for a Claude child to prove its start, and hands the oldest queued message over as its own serialized step, writing dispatch{pending} before the adapter call. A start it needed and did not get writes one error-tone row and rejects every queued message with the same words; a start Stop cancelled writes none. Settlement follows from the rows. A queued message is provably unwritten, so a close, an eviction or an exit rejects it. A handed-over message stays in doubt. A queued row at or below the sequence a handle found when it opened was left by an earlier process and is rejected at open, with no latch. Stop withdraws queued messages with no writer lease and no fence. An attach failure keeps the conversation open, and the attach adopts its journal. Owed work counts the loop and queued rows. A compaction or rewind found prepared when a conversation opens was started under a child this process no longer has, so the open settles it rather than leaving it to refuse every send until a view attaches. The open cursor is scoped to its epoch, because sequences restart when an epoch is replaced. Deleted: restart-before-admission, recordFailedRestart, the fence rebase, Claude's startup gate, the attach's forget on failure and its own crash boundary. Clients without agent-session.accepted-send.v1 get their reply held until the handover; the desktop and paired desktop lists advertise it. * fix(native-chat): settle queued messages only for the child that ended A child that proved its start and then exited before its message was handed over left the message queued: the exit settlement returned early when nothing else was in flight. Delivery then started another child for it, and a child that died the same way started another, without end and without a row. A retried settlement for an earlier generation, run by the attach that delivery started, did the opposite: with that generation's turn unfinished it rejected the message queued for the child being attached. The settlement now takes the rejection for queued messages from its caller. The unexpected exit and the eviction pass one, and it applies even with no other work in flight; the retry for an earlier generation passes none. * fix(native-chat): an adoption that fails to import keeps the conversation open The attach now writes into the conversation's own open journal, but a failed transcript import still closed it as if it were the attach's provisional one. The conversation stayed indexed with a closed journal, so every later send answered "could not be recorded" and every attach failed again until the app restarted. The import now closes only a journal the attach opened for itself. * perf(native-chat): the recovering open reads the journal once Every conversation open now goes through the recovering open, including the read restore of every chat at startup, which used to replay its journal once. The recovering open replayed it twice: once to probe it and again inside the open. The probe is now handed to the open as its load. * fix(native-chat): an attach that fails after indexing its child leaves no child behind A failed attach now keeps the conversation open, but a failure after `onAttached` indexed the child (the rewind or compaction recovery, or the attach's own success record) left that entry claiming a child the failure path had already released. The next send found the phantom, skipped the start, and wrote at a fence the journal had moved past, so the message stayed queued for good. The entry now drops the released child and its event sink, and follows the record's fence, as a failure before indexing already did. * fix(native-chat): a withdrawn message shows no error, and a rejection outlasts the send's answer The error strip for a message the host accepted and then did not deliver matched the entry before the outbox reconciled, so a Stop's withdrawal, which the reconcile drops, showed "Orca could not send your message" with nothing to retry. It now reads the reconciled entry. A rejection the journal records before the send's own pending answer lands is final as well: that answer no longer puts the entry back to dispatching with no Retry. * fix(orchestration): a structured worker whose agent outlasts the preamble wait is left unknown, not torn down The preamble waits for its submission to be delivered while the worker's agent starts. When that wait ran out it threw operation_unknown, and the failed-start teardown then closed the session, which rejected the very preamble the host was about to deliver. It now reports a turn start nobody observed yet: the worker is start-unknown with its session kept, the host delivers the preamble when the agent starts, and the worker's report settles the dispatch as for any unobserved start. The receipt no longer suggests reading a screen a structured worker lacks. * fix(native-chat): a message rejected while its chat was closed reads as not sent A remount reads an entry it left dispatching as unconfirmed. When the journal had rejected it meanwhile, as a failed start or a quit now does, the reconcile left it unconfirmed: it blocked every later message behind a Retry and no reason, and the delivery probe, seeing the journal already answered, never ran. The reconcile now settles it as rejected like a dispatching one. * test(orchestration): name why the readiness settlement fakes are cast * fix(native-chat): keep each pane's own fence on frames so a failed restart is not resent * docs(native-chat): drop the fence from the admission the send effects run behind * docs(native-chat): give the fence move on release the reason that still holds * docs(native-chat): stop citing a write fence check in launch and mailbox comments Three places still gave the removed fence check as a reason: the launch replay said admission puts the ledger ahead of the fence, the launch surface said a send must name the lease it was admitted against, and the direct-mailbox path said the lease fence decides whether delivery is safe. Admission now checks only the writer lease. * refactor(native-chat): the provider child is its own record A conversation now outlives any number of provider children, so the child is one record on the conversation's entry instead of five loose fields beside its journal. It is written in one place: indexed only once an attach has fully succeeded, and ended through one function that an exit, a failed re-attach, a Stop and an eviction all share, matched on the child's generation and fence. - A failed attach writes no child, so there is nothing to unwind: the field unwind and the fence patch after it are gone. - Conversation writes read the record's fence, the way mutation admission already does; a child's own writes use its fence. The four stored-fence patches, and the settlement retry's overwrite of the conversation's fence, are gone. - The owed wind-down is its own tombstone, carrying the child it is owed for, and is no longer dropped when an attach replaced the whole entry. - Stop on a child still proving its start stops only the child: its lease goes back and the chat is told it is idle, but the journal, the holders and the readers stay. Close is that stop plus the conversation's close. - The settlement retry uses the conversation's own journal, opened through the host's one open. * fix(native-chat): the delivery loop alone settles a message its start or child failed A queued message was settled by whichever path happened to end the child first: the loop, the unexpected exit, eviction's work settlement, the open's leftover rule, and the startup branch that rejected every pending row. That gave two failure rows with different tones for one start, a loop that could hand over to a different child than the one it waited on, and a Claude start that died while starting reading unlike every other failed start. - The loop remembers the child it waited on. At handover, if that child is gone or replaced, it reads how it ended: a Stop continues; anything else writes one failure row and rejects every queued message with the same words, then stops. A child still starting whose start the adapter says did not land fails the same way. The exit, eviction and the settlement retry only settle the handed-over and legacy rows of the child that ended. - One failure row, always an error, keyed by the start. A start a view began that dies with nothing queued writes the same row through the same builder, so a second report revises it. - The open no longer rejects leftovers; the loop's first step does, and the open wakes it. - `awaitStarted` answers why a start did not land, so the row says it even when the loop sees the failure before the exit is processed. - Quit closes every conversation the way closing a chat does: what is still queued is rejected as closed, with or without a child, and a start the loop already has in flight is waited for so the child it produces is stopped rather than left behind. * refactor(native-chat): a stopped child ends on the one reading of its stop The eviction step reads a stop's result through `stopAgentSessionProviderRoot` and hands that verdict to the child's ending, so the host never forms a second view of whether the root is gone. Every ending carries it: a stop's comes from that reading, an exit's root is gone by definition, and a failed re-attach passes what its release saw. The end-of-child record can therefore also carry a stop whose root was not seen to go, which nothing ends on yet. * feat(native-chat): the host says it accepts a send before any agent has it The host now lists agent-session.accepted-send.v1 among its own runtime capabilities, the same string capable clients already send. A client can then tell a host that answers a send at acceptance, and admits a Stop with no writer before a turn starts, from an older one that still restarts the agent inside the send. Additive: an older client ignores a capability it does not know. * refactor(native-chat): an attach never opens a journal of its own The attach adopts the conversation's open journal, which outlives it, so it no longer opens one for a direct caller either. That leaves nothing for a failed adopted import to close, and the flag that told the two cases apart is gone. Tests that attach without a host open the conversation the way a host does. * fix(native-chat): a moved fence resends nothing on a host that accepts first The outbox treated any fence change as a new owner: it dropped the answer of a send in flight, queued that send to go out again under the same id, and unblocked a refused head. On an older host that is how a send the restart refused, unrecorded, gets another try. On a host that records every send before it starts an agent, a fence moves because that start ran, so the same rule resent into every failed start. With a fence stamped on every frame, that became a loop. The outbox now reacts to a fence change only when the host has not advertised that it accepts a send before any agent has it. On such a host, only a Retry or a new send goes out, and a failed start reaches the client as a rejected message it keeps with its Retry. Against an older host, or before one has answered, the outbox behaves as it did. Desktop and paired web share this hook. * refactor(native-chat): a child's end says whether the user or the host stopped it The end-of-child record's cause now tells a user's Stop from the host stopping the child for a cause of its own: `user-stop` and `host-stop` replace `stop`. The delivery loop goes on after a user's Stop, as before, and fails the start it was waiting on after a host stop, with the one error row and every queued message rejected, in the stop's reason when it gave one. The reason stays description only. Stop passes `user-stop`; nothing passes `host-stop` yet. * fix(native-chat): a chat whose only work is a queued message is not offered for resume A message accepted while the agent was starting counts as working in the chat, and quit rejects it as never sent. The teardown snapshot read the same working rule, so a relaunch offered to resume a chat whose agent never had the message. The snapshot now reads only what was handed over. * test(native-chat): type the queued-message fixtures in the resume-offer tests * fix(native-chat): a start that dies while a message waits on it is that message's failed start Opening a chat's tab starts an agent for the view, and a send accepted meanwhile waits on it. When that start died, its exit wrote the start's error row and left the message queued, so the delivery loop started a second agent into the same failure and wrote a second row. A child's end now records where the conversation's journal stood, and the loop settles a message accepted before a failed start ended with that start: one row, under its key, and no second start. A message sent after the failure still gets a fresh start. * docs(native-chat): say what an attach's open conversation and unconfirmed ids are now * test(native-chat): pin what a failed start settles, and what a resume offer names A view's child that dies while a sent message waits settles that message only when it died starting and no child has taken its place: a proven child's crash, or a second start since, gets the message delivered. The resume offer names the handed-over message, never a newer one still queued. * test(native-chat): the failed-start pins fail on what the message became, not on a timeout * test(orchestration): the preamble's host stub is typed, not cast The preamble send now takes only what it reads of the host, the send, the settlement wait and the record's fence, so its test builds that host with real types instead of `as never`. * feat(native-chat): a typed failure fact beside every failure sentence Adds the shared vocabulary the host writes a failure with: a closed failure kind, a provider diagnostic that says who it is for (a person, or a log), and a refusal cause beside the refusal code. Status rows gain an optional failure fact and rejected submissions an optional rejection fact; the dispatch row carries it, the reducer reads it field by field, and the projection forwards it. Older rows and older readers are untouched: every field is optional and the schemas stay open. * fix(native-chat): durable failure rows and rejection reasons are written for a person Every host writer that records a failure now writes a sentence for a person beside a typed fact, instead of embedding a refusal's message, an exception or a composed exit string. A provider's own words travel as a separate diagnostic from the places Orca composes them - the Claude and Codex exit stderr (a log), Codex's JSON-RPC message, Claude's compact_error and Codex's turn error (for a person) - and are never inferred from a string afterwards. Not signed in and oversized history are typed at the adapter that detects them. Covers start and restart failures, the delivery loop, dispatch rejections (content, queue-full, write failures, provider refusals), cancel and answer confirmation rows, compaction, the rewind fallback, and not_delivered, which released clients printed as it was. Two leaks close on the way: a settlement retry no longer writes Orca's probe evidence into the exit row, and an attach or journal-sink failure is recorded as Orca's fault rather than as the provider stopping. The legacy rejection markers and the reasons on sends in doubt stay byte-identical. * feat(native-chat): refusals name their cause, and a failed start is worded in one place A refusal now carries an optional cause beside its code: one closed enum of the situations a chat write can meet, set at every emitter a structured-chat write reaches. Returned refusals build it with refuse(code, cause, message). Store and host paths that raised a bare Error(code) now throw AgentSessionRefusalError, whose message is still the code and which has no code property; the RPC error mapper handles it before any other passthrough, keeps today's wire code and message byte-identical, and adds { refusal: { code, cause } } to the error's data. The hold throws it, and restart-resume files the cause beside the unchanged reason. The operation ledger stores the cause beside the code, so a replay names the same situation as the first answer. The store fallback copy picks its words and cause by situation, so a stale replay or a moved lease no longer reads as a latched owner. Every failed start is worded by structuredAgentSessionStartFailure(cause, context), which returns the row sentence and the typed fact together; the delivery loop, the exit settlement and the dispatch that met a starting child all call it. Provider diagnostics are capped at the lease record's 512 characters wherever a fact is built. * refactor(native-chat): one reader of why a submission was rejected classifyDispatchRejection(submission) returns { category, verdict, kind? }. It reads the typed rejection fact when the row carries one this build can place, and the legacy markers otherwise - all six, including not_delivered, which released clients printed as it was. The verdict is null only for a withdrawal, a host restart and a closed chat; write failures, a full queue and not-delivered stay failures. It replaces dispatchRejectionReasonIsInternal and every string comparison against the markers: the outbox reconcile, the rejection notice, and the send disposition, where a replayed Stop-withdrawn send no longer surfaces as a failed send. The journal reducer's echo-aliasing guard reads the narrow isWriteFailureSubmission, which matches the typed kind or the legacy prefix in any dispatch state, so its behaviour on legacy unknown rows is unchanged. * test(native-chat): pin provider diagnostics where they are composed The Claude exit status and stderr, the Codex stderr tail and Codex's JSON-RPC message are each checked at the place Orca composes its own error around them, so the typed detail is proven to come from the provider's value and never from Orca's wording. * fix(native-chat): an attachment Orca refuses says which limit it broke The content check's refusals (20 images, 5 MB per image, 20 MB in total, supported types) are written for a person, but the rejection writer replaced them all with one generic sentence. Each refusal now carries its own sentence, in MB rather than bytes, and the writer records it beside kind attachmentInvalid. Only an attachment that could not be read keeps the generic sentence. * fix(native-chat): the chat tab table refuses with a typed cause Showing a chat tab refused with bare Error('agent_session_conflict') and Error('agent_session_identity_required'), the only chat-reachable refusals still thrown without a cause (opening a chat from history can reach the second when the chat is removed mid-open). Both now throw the typed refusal; wire code and message are unchanged. * fix(native-chat): a compaction Codex refuses up front keeps Codex's words When Codex refused thread/compact/start, the adapter passed on only Orca's wrapped error text and dropped Codex's own message, so the chat's row read just "Compaction failed." The refusal now carries Codex's message as the failure detail, as a compaction that fails later already did. * fix(native-chat): an unreadable chat record no longer promises an update fixes it The recordUnreadable copy said a newer Orca saved the chat, but the store marks a record unreadable for damage and key mismatches too, where updating does nothing. The sentence now says Orca can't read it and gives both next steps. * fix(native-chat): a restart or a close leaves released clients a sentence, not a marker host_restarted_before_delivery and provider_closed_before_delivery are not in the markers released desktop and mobile builds hide, so they printed raw on every rejected message a restart or a chat close left. Neither marker has shipped. New rows carry a sentence plus kind hostRestarted or chatClosed, as not_delivered already did; the classifier still reads both markers, and the verdict for both stays no-failure. * fix(native-chat): log why an attachment could not be read The rejected message now says only that the attachment couldn't be read, so the error that said why (a missing file, a permission, or an unexpected throw) went nowhere. It is logged instead. The content rejection moves beside the content check that owns its errors. * refactor(native-chat): drop an unused thrown-refusal cause reader It had no callers, and its comment claimed it looked through wrappers, which it did not. * fix(native-chat): a compaction the provider never confirmed is recorded as unconfirmed, not failed * fix(native-chat): an empty or non-user message is not recorded as a bad attachment * fix(native-chat): an undelivered preamble's error ends in one period * refactor(native-chat): a compaction ends as compacted, failed, or unconfirmed, never an unlabelled error * refactor(native-chat): a failure's sentence is written only from its fact A writer could choose its sentence and its kind separately, so five writers put hand-written words beside a fact that said something else. One shared constructor, agentSessionFailureWords(fact, { surface, agentName }), now makes both, and the journal types refuse anything else: a status row, a rejected message or a conversation command that carries a fact must carry the sentence that constructor branded. Persisted rows keep their shape. - The sentence table and the restart table move to src/shared, as the English default a client copy table can reuse. - A rejection's legacy markers come from the same constructor. A write failure is now the bare `provider_write_failed` marker, which released clients already hide; its error goes to the log. - An image Orca refuses carries which check it failed (and the limit) in the fact instead of a sentence; an empty message gets its own kind, and a non-user message is Orca's fault. - The exit row, the interrupted compaction, the /clear failure and the rewind placeholder no longer carry their own words beside a fact: the exit row says what its fact says, and the placeholder carries no fact. * fix(native-chat): a start that failed without an observed exit no longer blames the provider Every untyped start error was recorded as "The provider stopped before it finished starting.", so an Orca fault, a failed spawn or a close that ended a start was blamed on the provider. Only an exit the adapter observed says so now: the Claude adapter marks the error it saw the child exit with, and anything else is a new `startFailed` kind, "<Agent> couldn't start.", keeping the provider's diagnostic when the error carried one. A child gone with no end observed, and a /clear whose new conversation was refused, read the same way. * fix(native-chat): a view never restarts a chat whose last start failed A Claude chat whose CLI exits during startup left one red row per start, and every time a view bound to it (the chat opening right after its create died, or the user switching back to it) the hold started the CLI again, so the same launch-failure row repeated. Only a send retries a failed start now, the same rule provider-exit recovery already applied; the rule lives in one predicate the hold, exit recovery and the delivery loop share. * fix(native-chat): a chat a terminal agent still holds says to quit that agent The merged base words a restart a terminal agent's claim refused with the refusal's own message, which names the process. That message is Orca's text and never reaches a durable row here, so the row read only "<Agent> couldn't restart." and lost the one step that frees the chat. The restart sentence now derives it from the refusal's cause: a claimConflicted refusal adds "This chat is still open in a terminal agent. Quit that agent to continue the chat here." The live refusal still names the process. The restart-resume ledger test now sets up a claim the base still refuses: a terminal owner that is proven running. * refactor(native-chat): keep the changed files inside their lint limits The legacy-marker lookup is a table, not a non-exhaustive switch; the preamble tests read the error without a cast; and the Codex history refusal goes through a named constructor so its file stays under the line limit. * test(native-chat): start the child the loop waits on with an attach, not a second view A view no longer starts a child whose last start failed, so the R2 case that waits on a child started since the failure now gets that child from a client attach, the one non-send starter left. * fix(native-chat): settle a gone generation's turn wherever a conversation opens A send that opens a chat this process had not read yet (after a crash, from a phone or the CLI) went through the delivery open, which never settled what the dead generation left running; only the read restore and a successful acquire did. When the send's start then failed, the turn stayed running for every reader. The settlement now runs in the one journal open, at the crash boundary, for every opener except an acquisition, which settles from the evidence it read before its reserve; the read restore's separate step is gone. * test(native-chat): prove the next child's start settles the turn an earlier child left The R1 case lost its only settlement assertion when the latch it checked was deleted. It now seeds the running turn the earlier child left and asserts it ends at the exit's receipt, with the exit's row, before the message is handed to the new child. * test(native-chat): count a failed start's rows by row, not by text Comparing the set of texts passed when two different rows carried the same words, which is the duplicate the test exists to catch. * test(native-chat): give the failed-start and stale-turn waits a loaded runner's budget * refactor(native-chat): refusals carry details keyed by their code A refusal named its situation with one flat cause list shared by every code, so nothing stopped a site pairing a code with a situation that code never means, and the loose fields released clients read (fence, revision, resolution, verdict, rewind reason) were written by hand at each emitter. A refusal is now one variant per code with optional details: a reason that code lists plus that code's own facts. refuse(code, details, message) rejects a reason the code does not list at compile time, and it is the one place the loose top-level fields are copied from details, so released clients read exactly what they read before. A site that cannot name its situation uses refuseUnclassified, which carries facts but no reason, the same as an older host; there is no catch-all reason. Thrown refusals put { refusal: { code, details } } in the RPC error's data (wire code and message unchanged). The operation ledger, the restart-resume record and a restart failure's embedded refusal keep details beside the code and read them back against it; a row an unreleased build wrote with a cause parses and reads as naming none. * test(native-chat): pin the open's and the send's start and row counts, however the view binds Opening a fresh chat whose starts fail makes one start and one row, with two views bound before or after the create's child died; one send makes one more of each. * test(native-chat): a restart-resume failure keeps its refusal details The recovery capsule reads a failure's details back against the refusal code in its reason: facts the code does not list and a reason another code owns are dropped, and a record an unreleased build wrote with a cause still parses, naming nothing. * test(native-chat): import the failure words once in the provider child test The merge left two imports of the same modules. * fix(native-chat): settle a gone generation's turn at every open but an acquisition's The journal open skipped the settlement whenever the lease read reserved or live, to leave an acquisition's own open to the acquisition. But a lease a crashed process left in recovery also reads live, until the next acquire resolves it. A send that opened such a chat, from a phone or the CLI after a crash on a host that could not prove the old owner gone, skipped the settlement; when its start then failed, the dead turn stayed running for every reader. The acquisition now says it is the opener, and every other open settles, whatever the lease still claims. * test(native-chat): hold the create's start open until the views bind The "view binds while the create is still starting" case gave the create a 300 ms head start and asserted the views bound before it died. On a loaded runner the holds took longer, the create's exit landed first, and the case failed its own precondition. The create's initialize now waits on a gate the test releases once the views are bound. * fix(native-chat): a start the provider refused or Orca broke no longer says the provider stopped A failed start whose cleanup proved the child gone was typed as `providerStartFailed` whatever failed it: Codex refusing to resume a thread, a timeout, or Orca's own store fault. The chat then read "The provider stopped before it finished starting.", which was untrue, and the provider's own words were dropped. A refused restart also inferred the same from an `exited` verdict, which only says nothing runs now. Only an exit the adapter observed names that situation now; anything else is refused with no reason, keeping its verdict, and the chat reads "<Agent> couldn't restart.". The provider's words travel host-side from where the acquisition failed into the start-failure fact's detail, never onto the refusal, and the sentence does not quote them. What failed is logged once where the start failed. * fix(native-chat): a refused /clear start keeps the situation it named The replacement start that /clear makes built its own start-failure fact, so a refusal that named its situation, such as not being signed in or a history too large to restore, was recorded as a bare "couldn't start". It now takes its fact from the same start-failure function as every other start, as a new session that failed to start. * fix(native-chat): the journal schema and comments describe a refusal's details, not its cause The persisted failure fact's schema still described `refusal.cause`, which this branch replaced with `details`. It now describes `details` as an optional open object; a row an earlier build wrote with a `cause` still parses. A comment and three test descriptions that still named the cause now name the details. * fix(native-chat): a Claude child that exits while being acquired still reads as the provider stopping Now that only an exit the adapter observed says the provider stopped, the exit the Claude adapter saw during acquisition has to be marked where it is seen, as the exit after acquisition already is. Without the mark, a Claude CLI that exited at spawn read "Claude couldn't restart." instead of "The provider stopped before it finished starting." * fix(native-chat): word a failed chat start's refusal as its start failure A chat whose agent failed to start answered the create with the raw error: the launch strip read "Chat could not be started. claude stream-json exited (code 1): claude: not signed in", and the ledger replayed the same text. The first answer and the replay now carry the sentence the chat's start-failure row reads as ("The provider stopped before it finished starting.", "Claude couldn't start.", the not-signed-in and history-too-large sentences), and the raw error goes to the log. A store refusal's code and the unproven-exit marker are unchanged. * fix(native-chat): show Claude's API retries as one sentence row While Claude retried a refused request (a 429, say), the chat gained one red row per attempt reading "rate_limit", with the raw retry frame behind Details. Each retry run now writes one warning row that later attempts revise in place: "Claude is rate-limited and retrying." for a rate limit (error `rate_limit` or status 429), and "Claude hit a temporary problem and is retrying." otherwise. The row carries a `providerRetrying` fact with the provider's error type and status, and the frame as a log detail capped at 512 characters. * fix(native-chat): tell the user to run /clear again when its new conversation can't start When /clear's replacement conversation failed to start, the result told the user to "send your message again", which would go into the old conversation. The failure words now take the command the start was for, so a failed /clear reads "Codex is not signed in for the selected account. Sign in, then run /clear again.", "Codex couldn't start. Run /clear again." or "The provider stopped before it finished starting. Run /clear again." A message send keeps its wording. * test(native-chat): expect a failed Claude create to be refused in a sentence The runtime suites asserted the CLI's stderr reached the create refusal; it now goes to the log and the refusal reads as the chat's start failure. * fix(native-chat): name the agent that stopped starting and say how to retry a failed start A start the provider ended now reads "Claude stopped before it finished starting." (or "The agent ..." when the chat's agent is unknown) instead of naming "the provider". A start or restart that failed with a chat left to retry now ends in "Send your message to try again.", or "Run /clear again." for /clear; released clients print only this sentence. A message rejected at dispatch because its child died while starting names the same agent as the start's row. * refactor(native-chat): drop the composer's second error formatter After the merge with main, every chat write in the composer path reports its failure as a typed outcome worded by the refusal-notice table, so the send's catch sees only a local throw. The {code, message} formatter this branch added for it has no payload left to format, and its claim to be the one way a chat words a failure is no longer true. The composer send is main's again. * test(native-chat): pin the reason on a message rejected while its chat was closed The reopen test checked only that the message reads as not sent; it now also checks the Retry row carries the host's reason. * fix(native-chat): answer a create refused before spawn in the words its replay reads A create that failed before any process started threw Orca's own error text as its first answer, while its replay from the operation ledger read the generic start sentence. The two refusals a person can act on, a launch whose Anthropic sign-in variables override the managed Claude account and a Claude account switch in progress, are now typed where they are thrown and worded by the shared failure constructor, so the first answer and the replay say the same thing. Every other pre-spawn failure reads the generic start sentence, with its own text in the log. The first answer keeps its wire code; a message that is itself a code is unchanged. * fix(native-chat): say how to retry after an agent stopped before it finished starting "<Agent> stopped before it finished starting." gave no next step outside /clear, unlike every other failed start. It now ends "Send your message to try again.", the same step a start or restart that could not run gives; after /clear it still says "Run /clear again." * fix(native-chat): say how to reach a Claude chat when a WSL Claude account blocks it A Claude chat that restarts while a Claude account is added in WSL and no Windows Claude account is selected was refused before spawn with Orca's own text as its first answer, and the generic start sentence on replay. The refusal is now typed where the account gate throws, and both answers read the same sentence: choose or add a Windows Claude account in Claude Accounts settings, then send the message again. Account settings that cannot be read name no situation and keep the generic sentence. * fix(native-chat): say the reason a host names for a refused chat write A refused Stop, answer, setting, goal, command or queued message now reads the refusal's reason as well as its code. A code stands for several situations, so the code alone could only say what did not happen; with the reason, the notice says why and, where the person has a step to take, what it is: "The agent is still responding. The command didn't run. Wait for the agent to finish responding, or stop it." The phone uses the same words. The notice table keys on code, then reason, then the kind of write. Every reason of every code has an entry, so a reason the host adds does not compile until it has words; a reason whose honest words are its code's keeps the code's row. A refusal with no reason, or one this build does not know, reads exactly as before, which is what an older host gets. A start that failed reuses the failure row's own sentence rather than a second one. A queued message keeps the reason, the rewind reason and the owner's verdict with its saved failure, and a rejected one keeps the host's typed fact without its provider detail. Nothing that moves with the owner or comes from the provider is saved; entries saved before this load as they were. The saved failure moves to its own module beside the words chosen from it. * fix(native-chat): retry a refused send under a new id only once its agent is proven gone A send refused because Orca could not tell who owns the chat keeps its operation id, since the first attempt may still land. When the refusal also says the agent process has exited, nothing can run that attempt, so the message moves to its Retry row under a new id instead of holding the queue. The owner's verdict is read as a floor: a saved `exited` is final, and any other saved verdict never changes the id on its own. Only a verdict re-derived from the current lease can raise it to `exited`, and nothing lowers a saved `exited`. Today no host sends a verdict on a send refusal, so nothing a person sees changes; the rule is in place for the saved verdict a reload reads back. * fix(native-chat): say a /clear that never finished did not finish, instead of that it cleared the chat A send into a chat whose /clear started but never committed was refused as if the conversation had been cleared: "This conversation has been cleared. Your message was not sent. Open the current conversation to continue." The clear never finished, so its new conversation may not exist and there is nothing to open. That refusal now has its own reason and reads "The last /clear didn't finish. Your message was not sent. Start a new chat to continue.", which is the only way on today. Its message for released clients says the same: "The last /clear didn't finish. Start a new chat to continue." Only a committed /clear still says the conversation was cleared. * fix(native-chat): a send the provider never received after a restart has no verdict Restart reconciliation rejects a crash-stranded send the provider's history proves it never received. Nobody failed that send, but the verdict table treated it as a failure. Each rejection kind now has its verdict in one exhaustive table, so a new kind does not compile until its verdict is chosen; no verdict for a withdrawal, a host restart, a chat close, or this lost send. A rejection whose kind this build cannot place, such as one a newer host added, now reads as undelivered with no verdict instead of falling back to the reason beside it: all it proves is that the message did not happen. The host keeps such a fact's kind when it reads the row back, rather than dropping it and letting the reason decide. Only kinds that can be why a message was not sent may reject one, by type: compaction, cancel/answer confirmation and provider-retry kinds stay on status rows. The one dispatch-row builder takes its input from the type that makes a rejected row carry its fact. * fix(native-chat): a send refused after its agent exited keeps its place in the queue When Orca cannot tell who owns a chat but the refusal says the agent process has exited, the next attempt may use a new id, since nothing can run the old one. It no longer marks the message as rejected: nothing recorded it, so it still holds the head of the queue, and later messages wait behind it instead of being sent ahead of it. * fix(native-chat): stop reading a provider's words from an error that contains itself A cleanup that aggregates errors restarted the depth count for each one, so an aggregate error that contains itself recursed until the host ran out of stack. One depth bound now covers both the cause chain and the aggregated errors. * fix(native-chat): say a chat whose history can't be read can't continue, and to start a new one A read of a chat's history is refused with `agent_session_journal_unreadable` only when the chat's journal file is corrupt or not a database, which no retry can change. The notice table had no words for a read at all, so a pane had nothing to show but the raw code. Reading a chat's history is now its own request kind, `read-history`, and that refusal on it reads "This chat's history couldn't be read, so it can't continue here. Start a new chat to continue.", whether the host names the reason or raises the bare code. A write refused under the same code keeps its words, because its cause is any failed open, which can clear. Any other read refusal says only "This chat's history couldn't be loaded." `agentSessionReadHistoryRefusalParts(code, details)` gives a pane those words from a read error. The notice sentences move to their own module so the table stays within its size limit. * fix(native-chat): decide what every way a child ends means for queued messages in one table What a child's end means for the messages queued behind it was an if-chain: a user's Stop was checked in one place, a host stop in another, and every other cause, including one added later, fell through to "the provider exited". It is now one table over every end cause, so a new cause does not compile until someone says whether it fails what is queued and how. A user's Stop still fails nothing, a host stop is still Orca's fault, and an exit, a failed attach or an eviction still carry the failure the end recorded. Nothing a person sees changes. * test(native-chat): a close that stops the child and then fails rejects what is queued by how the child ended When a chat closes, stops its agent, and then fails a later step, the chat stays open with its messages still queued. The delivery loop then rejects them by the way the child ended: an eviction during startup reads as a failed start, otherwise as the provider having stopped, and either counts as a failure. The cases are rows over the end cause, so another way a chat closes is one more row. * test(native-chat): type the refusal a persisted-schema test admits * fix(native-chat): say whether a chat's history is damaged or just couldn't open A write refused because the chat's journal would not open named one reason, `journalUnreadable`, for every failed open, and a read of the history took that same reason as final. So the words depended on what was asked, not on what happened: a busy or permission-denied open could tell a person to start a new chat, and a damaged one could read as something that clears. The host now decides at the refusal which it was. `journalCorrupt` is set only when SQLite itself reports the journal damaged or not a database (SQLITE_CORRUPT or SQLITE_NOTADB, extended codes included, read from the driver's result code and never from message text, through any `cause` chain). Every other failed open is `journalUnavailable`. A corrupt history reads "This chat's history couldn't be read, so it can't continue here. Start a new chat to continue.", with "Your message was not sent." before the step on a send. One that couldn't open reads "Orca couldn't open this chat's history right now. Try again.", likewise on a send. A host that names no reason gets "Orca couldn't read this chat's saved history.", which promises neither, because damage can't be proven from the code alone. The refusal's message, which released clients print for a send, is now that person sentence instead of the open error's own text; the error is logged instead. `journalUnreadable` is replaced outright: no released build wrote it, and a stored one reads as a refusal with no reason. * docs(native-chat): say why a history that couldn't open names its retry step * fix(native-chat): a failed start's row keeps the words its rejected messages carry When the delivery loop settles a failed start before the child's exit is published, it writes the start's error row and rejects every queued message with the adapter's startup answer. The exit settlement then rewrote the same row from the exit event, so the row could say one thing while the rejected messages, which are terminal, said another. The exit now leaves a start's row it finds already written. * fix(native-chat): a Claude start Orca itself failed no longer says Claude stopped Every error that ended a Claude session was marked as an exit the adapter observed, including a start Orca failed while the CLI was still running: a saved option whose restore lost its answer, an init frame naming another session, or a journal write fault. Those read "Claude stopped before it finished starting." although Claude never stopped on its own. The mark now stays where the child's exit is seen (the connection's exit callback), so those starts read "Claude couldn't start." with any diagnostic beside it, and a real exit before the start lands still says Claude stopped. * fix(native-chat): name the agent that stopped, and blame Orca for its own closes A chat that lost its agent mid-response said "The provider stopped…", and a started Claude session that Orca itself closed after a journal fault said the same, as if Claude had exited on its own. The exit row and the rejected-message reason now name the chat's agent ("Claude stopped while this response was in progress…", "Codex stopped before this message was sent."), or "The agent" when the name is unknown; the stale-state settlement now passes the agent name too. After a Claude start has landed, the ended event reports providerExited only when the child's own exit was observed; any other close is Orca's fault and reads as one. * test(native-chat): pin the sidebar verdict to the rejection classifier for every kind and legacy marker * fix(native-chat): blame Orca, not Codex, when Orca closes the Codex child A Codex chat that Orca itself closed (a journal sink that could not take a frame, or a forced close) said "Codex stopped while this response was in progress", as if Codex had exited on its own. Orca's own close path now reports hostFault. providerExited is left to the app-server connection's exit callback, which the connection withholds while Orca is closing the child, so it only ever reports the child's own exit. * fix(native-chat): a chat whose history is damaged reads "Unable to load this chat." * fix(native-chat): route the conversation-outlives-agent writers through the typed refusals Three writers that arrived with the merge wrote refusals the old way: - An operation that starts the agent itself, such as a goal change, turned any error the start threw into a refusal whose message was Orca's own error text, which released clients print. It now logs the error and says only that the agent couldn't restart. - An option picked while the chat is at rest, for a key the provider would not accept, is refused with the rejected-option reason, like the same pick on a running agent. - A restart continuation whose agent was refused a start filed the rejected message's sentence as the failure's reason. It files the refusal's code with its details again, which is what the restart-failure guidance keys on. * fix(native-chat): a start Orca stopped because it never finished reads as that The idle sweep now stops an agent whose start never finished and rejects the messages waiting on it. The chat read "Orca ran into a problem, so this didn't go through. Try again." for that, because every host stop was worded as Orca's own fault. It now reads "Codex never finished starting, so Orca stopped it." in the chat's row and on each rejected message, carried as its own failure kind so newer clients can tell it apart. The message counts as failed, like any start that did not land. * test(native-chat): pin the merged close and host-stop rows to their typed facts The merge left two expectations on the old words: the close tests looked for the marker a close used to write, and the host-stop test for the host-fault sentence. A close now writes "The chat closed before this message was sent." with its fact, and a host stop the hostStopped sentence the constructor gives, whatever reason the stop carried. Also folds the conversation command's two imports from send preparation into one. * fix(native-chat): a read of a chat this host cannot open says why Reads now reach a chat through one accessor, which refused a missing record and a provider this host does not run as a bare code with nothing beside it. Revealing the same chat already names those reasons, so a client could tell "this chat no longer exists" and "update Orca" apart there but not on the history or subscribe read that follows. The accessor now throws the same typed refusals. The wire code and message are unchanged; the reason rides only in the error's data, which released clients ignore. * test(native-chat): a Claude retrying past the idle window keeps its conversation open Every api_retry frame publishes the journal, and that publish is the activity the idle sweep reads, so a retry run revised into one row still renews the clock on each attempt. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-28 01:53:11 -07:00
Brennan BensonandClaude	85067494a1	fix(native-chat): a request that failed reads as failed (#22944) ... * 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. The fresh-scan tests now go through `queryWindowsProcessDescendants({ fresh: true })`, the teardown path that still depends on that contract. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(native-chat): stop citing the removed handoff in lifecycle comments Six comments still named the handoff coordinator, a handoff suspend, or a terminal-owned session as live participants in the flows they describe. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(native-chat): type the stalled snapshot drain without a cast Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(native-chat): pin that a start dead before proving owes no settlement The removed restart handoff test pinned this branch; nothing else did. 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. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(native-chat): type the stand-in roster decoder without a cast Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(codex): name the pinned rollout lookup for what it does With the terminal handoff gone, the module named codex-tui-rollout-proof holds only the pinned rollout lookup that structured Codex launches use to resume a thread, so the name described code that no longer exists. 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. * fix(native-chat): name a chat write by its target, not the owner generation A write carried the fence of the last frame the pane read, and the host refused it unless that fence was still current. An idle release and the restart after it each move the fence, and the release publishes nothing, so a send after a release was refused "Expected runtime fence 1; the session is at 3", and a Stop queued behind a cold start was refused as stale. Every write already names what it acts on: a send its conversation, a cancel its turn, a prompt answer its item revision, a rewind its epoch; an option is last-writer-wins. So admission stops comparing the client's fence, and the rebase that papered over one restart (admitAtResumedFence, resumedFromFence) goes with it. The writer-lease check stays, and so does the attach's compare-and-swap. Frames now stamp the fence read when each frame is sent instead of a copy each subscriber kept, which went stale on the same release. * fix(native-chat): every journal append reaches the chats that are open A journal write and its delivery to open readers were two calls, and some writers made only the first. A failed start whose lease could not be handed back, a provider revision with no frame behind it, and eviction's settlement were all journaled without reaching an open chat. A journal handle now reports every durable change, and the host's session map binds that report to the session's readers when the handle is set. Writers no longer publish what they append; the per-writer publish calls are deleted. * test(native-chat): an epoch replacement reaches the open chat * test(native-chat): each row reaches an open chat once, and a live handle enters only through the map * 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. * perf(native-chat): a publish behind a delivered commit reads nothing Each commit now delivers itself, so the publish a provider frame still sends afterwards found every reader caught up but still read rows and rebuilt the timeline for each one. A caught-up reader now skips the read. * test(native-chat): state why the teardown test's fake journal is safe to cast * docs(native-chat): say mutation admission checks only the writer lease * docs(native-chat): drop the send rebase from comments that still described it * fix(native-chat): a message is accepted, then delivered A send to a chat with no running agent restarted the agent inside the send call, before the message was recorded, so the client waited for the whole start and a failed restart refused the message. Claude held prompts sent during startup, and those could settle as "unconfirmed". A send is now accepted inside the session's serialized queue: one ledger row and one submission row marked handoverRecorded, published, answered pending. A per-session delivery loop exists while a message is queued. It starts the agent through the same serialized attach a hold uses, waits outside the queue for a Claude child to prove its start, and hands the oldest queued message over as its own serialized step, writing dispatch{pending} before the adapter call. A start it needed and did not get writes one error-tone row and rejects every queued message with the same words; a start Stop cancelled writes none. Settlement follows from the rows. A queued message is provably unwritten, so a close, an eviction or an exit rejects it. A handed-over message stays in doubt. A queued row at or below the sequence a handle found when it opened was left by an earlier process and is rejected at open, with no latch. Stop withdraws queued messages with no writer lease and no fence. An attach failure keeps the conversation open, and the attach adopts its journal. Owed work counts the loop and queued rows. A compaction or rewind found prepared when a conversation opens was started under a child this process no longer has, so the open settles it rather than leaving it to refuse every send until a view attaches. The open cursor is scoped to its epoch, because sequences restart when an epoch is replaced. Deleted: restart-before-admission, recordFailedRestart, the fence rebase, Claude's startup gate, the attach's forget on failure and its own crash boundary. Clients without agent-session.accepted-send.v1 get their reply held until the handover; the desktop and paired desktop lists advertise it. * fix(native-chat): settle queued messages only for the child that ended A child that proved its start and then exited before its message was handed over left the message queued: the exit settlement returned early when nothing else was in flight. Delivery then started another child for it, and a child that died the same way started another, without end and without a row. A retried settlement for an earlier generation, run by the attach that delivery started, did the opposite: with that generation's turn unfinished it rejected the message queued for the child being attached. The settlement now takes the rejection for queued messages from its caller. The unexpected exit and the eviction pass one, and it applies even with no other work in flight; the retry for an earlier generation passes none. * fix(native-chat): an adoption that fails to import keeps the conversation open The attach now writes into the conversation's own open journal, but a failed transcript import still closed it as if it were the attach's provisional one. The conversation stayed indexed with a closed journal, so every later send answered "could not be recorded" and every attach failed again until the app restarted. The import now closes only a journal the attach opened for itself. * perf(native-chat): the recovering open reads the journal once Every conversation open now goes through the recovering open, including the read restore of every chat at startup, which used to replay its journal once. The recovering open replayed it twice: once to probe it and again inside the open. The probe is now handed to the open as its load. * fix(native-chat): an attach that fails after indexing its child leaves no child behind A failed attach now keeps the conversation open, but a failure after `onAttached` indexed the child (the rewind or compaction recovery, or the attach's own success record) left that entry claiming a child the failure path had already released. The next send found the phantom, skipped the start, and wrote at a fence the journal had moved past, so the message stayed queued for good. The entry now drops the released child and its event sink, and follows the record's fence, as a failure before indexing already did. * fix(native-chat): a withdrawn message shows no error, and a rejection outlasts the send's answer The error strip for a message the host accepted and then did not deliver matched the entry before the outbox reconciled, so a Stop's withdrawal, which the reconcile drops, showed "Orca could not send your message" with nothing to retry. It now reads the reconciled entry. A rejection the journal records before the send's own pending answer lands is final as well: that answer no longer puts the entry back to dispatching with no Retry. * fix(orchestration): a structured worker whose agent outlasts the preamble wait is left unknown, not torn down The preamble waits for its submission to be delivered while the worker's agent starts. When that wait ran out it threw operation_unknown, and the failed-start teardown then closed the session, which rejected the very preamble the host was about to deliver. It now reports a turn start nobody observed yet: the worker is start-unknown with its session kept, the host delivers the preamble when the agent starts, and the worker's report settles the dispatch as for any unobserved start. The receipt no longer suggests reading a screen a structured worker lacks. * fix(native-chat): a message rejected while its chat was closed reads as not sent A remount reads an entry it left dispatching as unconfirmed. When the journal had rejected it meanwhile, as a failed start or a quit now does, the reconcile left it unconfirmed: it blocked every later message behind a Retry and no reason, and the delivery probe, seeing the journal already answered, never ran. The reconcile now settles it as rejected like a dispatching one. * test(orchestration): name why the readiness settlement fakes are cast * fix(native-chat): keep each pane's own fence on frames so a failed restart is not resent * docs(native-chat): drop the fence from the admission the send effects run behind * docs(native-chat): give the fence move on release the reason that still holds * docs(native-chat): stop citing a write fence check in launch and mailbox comments Three places still gave the removed fence check as a reason: the launch replay said admission puts the ledger ahead of the fence, the launch surface said a send must name the lease it was admitted against, and the direct-mailbox path said the lease fence decides whether delivery is safe. Admission now checks only the writer lease. * refactor(native-chat): the provider child is its own record A conversation now outlives any number of provider children, so the child is one record on the conversation's entry instead of five loose fields beside its journal. It is written in one place: indexed only once an attach has fully succeeded, and ended through one function that an exit, a failed re-attach, a Stop and an eviction all share, matched on the child's generation and fence. - A failed attach writes no child, so there is nothing to unwind: the field unwind and the fence patch after it are gone. - Conversation writes read the record's fence, the way mutation admission already does; a child's own writes use its fence. The four stored-fence patches, and the settlement retry's overwrite of the conversation's fence, are gone. - The owed wind-down is its own tombstone, carrying the child it is owed for, and is no longer dropped when an attach replaced the whole entry. - Stop on a child still proving its start stops only the child: its lease goes back and the chat is told it is idle, but the journal, the holders and the readers stay. Close is that stop plus the conversation's close. - The settlement retry uses the conversation's own journal, opened through the host's one open. * fix(native-chat): the delivery loop alone settles a message its start or child failed A queued message was settled by whichever path happened to end the child first: the loop, the unexpected exit, eviction's work settlement, the open's leftover rule, and the startup branch that rejected every pending row. That gave two failure rows with different tones for one start, a loop that could hand over to a different child than the one it waited on, and a Claude start that died while starting reading unlike every other failed start. - The loop remembers the child it waited on. At handover, if that child is gone or replaced, it reads how it ended: a Stop continues; anything else writes one failure row and rejects every queued message with the same words, then stops. A child still starting whose start the adapter says did not land fails the same way. The exit, eviction and the settlement retry only settle the handed-over and legacy rows of the child that ended. - One failure row, always an error, keyed by the start. A start a view began that dies with nothing queued writes the same row through the same builder, so a second report revises it. - The open no longer rejects leftovers; the loop's first step does, and the open wakes it. - `awaitStarted` answers why a start did not land, so the row says it even when the loop sees the failure before the exit is processed. - Quit closes every conversation the way closing a chat does: what is still queued is rejected as closed, with or without a child, and a start the loop already has in flight is waited for so the child it produces is stopped rather than left behind. * refactor(native-chat): a stopped child ends on the one reading of its stop The eviction step reads a stop's result through `stopAgentSessionProviderRoot` and hands that verdict to the child's ending, so the host never forms a second view of whether the root is gone. Every ending carries it: a stop's comes from that reading, an exit's root is gone by definition, and a failed re-attach passes what its release saw. The end-of-child record can therefore also carry a stop whose root was not seen to go, which nothing ends on yet. * feat(native-chat): the host says it accepts a send before any agent has it The host now lists agent-session.accepted-send.v1 among its own runtime capabilities, the same string capable clients already send. A client can then tell a host that answers a send at acceptance, and admits a Stop with no writer before a turn starts, from an older one that still restarts the agent inside the send. Additive: an older client ignores a capability it does not know. * refactor(native-chat): an attach never opens a journal of its own The attach adopts the conversation's open journal, which outlives it, so it no longer opens one for a direct caller either. That leaves nothing for a failed adopted import to close, and the flag that told the two cases apart is gone. Tests that attach without a host open the conversation the way a host does. * fix(native-chat): a moved fence resends nothing on a host that accepts first The outbox treated any fence change as a new owner: it dropped the answer of a send in flight, queued that send to go out again under the same id, and unblocked a refused head. On an older host that is how a send the restart refused, unrecorded, gets another try. On a host that records every send before it starts an agent, a fence moves because that start ran, so the same rule resent into every failed start. With a fence stamped on every frame, that became a loop. The outbox now reacts to a fence change only when the host has not advertised that it accepts a send before any agent has it. On such a host, only a Retry or a new send goes out, and a failed start reaches the client as a rejected message it keeps with its Retry. Against an older host, or before one has answered, the outbox behaves as it did. Desktop and paired web share this hook. * refactor(native-chat): a child's end says whether the user or the host stopped it The end-of-child record's cause now tells a user's Stop from the host stopping the child for a cause of its own: `user-stop` and `host-stop` replace `stop`. The delivery loop goes on after a user's Stop, as before, and fails the start it was waiting on after a host stop, with the one error row and every queued message rejected, in the stop's reason when it gave one. The reason stays description only. Stop passes `user-stop`; nothing passes `host-stop` yet. * fix(native-chat): a chat whose only work is a queued message is not offered for resume A message accepted while the agent was starting counts as working in the chat, and quit rejects it as never sent. The teardown snapshot read the same working rule, so a relaunch offered to resume a chat whose agent never had the message. The snapshot now reads only what was handed over. * test(native-chat): type the queued-message fixtures in the resume-offer tests * fix(native-chat): a start that dies while a message waits on it is that message's failed start Opening a chat's tab starts an agent for the view, and a send accepted meanwhile waits on it. When that start died, its exit wrote the start's error row and left the message queued, so the delivery loop started a second agent into the same failure and wrote a second row. A child's end now records where the conversation's journal stood, and the loop settles a message accepted before a failed start ended with that start: one row, under its key, and no second start. A message sent after the failure still gets a fresh start. * fix(native-chat): a request that failed reads as failed A structured chat whose only message the agent's start refused read as a green finish, and a cancelled structured turn did too: the host published a verdict only for turn records, and structured rows carried no `interrupted`. The host projection now reads the session's latest request: its turn's outcome, or `failure` for a send the agent or its start refused. A send that was withdrawn, or left undelivered by a restart or a close, fails nobody and makes nothing listable. The ingest publishes `interrupted` as the hook lanes do, and every reader decodes the verdict through one accessor, so a failure reads Failed on the dot, the rollups, history and `worktree ps`, behaves like a cancellation in every clean-finish policy, and notifies as "failed". * docs(native-chat): say what an attach's open conversation and unconfirmed ids are now * test(native-chat): a verdict change republishes the mobile status projection * refactor(native-chat): the store's retention trigger keeps its flag compare A verdict change always moves the completion clock the same check already reads, so a second verdict compare there caught nothing new. * test(native-chat): a user message the provider journaled keeps its session listed * test(native-chat): pin what a failed start settles, and what a resume offer names A view's child that dies while a sent message waits settles that message only when it died starting and no child has taken its place: a proven child's crash, or a second start since, gets the message delivered. The resume offer names the handed-over message, never a newer one still queued. * test(native-chat): the failed-start pins fail on what the message became, not on a timeout * fix(native-chat): a late provider-session update keeps a failed recovery record failed A provider-session heartbeat that rewrites a completed recovery record kept its interrupted flag but dropped the outcome it was copied with, so a live failed checkpoint read as a clean finish until the next status write. * test(orchestration): the preamble's host stub is typed, not cast The preamble send now takes only what it reads of the host, the send, the settlement wait and the record's fence, so its test builds that host with real types instead of `as never`. * test(native-chat): the terminal-bell check asserts the renamed verdict field The bell notification test still checked for agentInterrupted, which no longer exists, so it could not catch a verdict leaking into a bell dispatch. * fix(native-chat): a failed turn ranks like a completion for attention Attention readers (completion time, Smart Sort, sticky retention, Cmd+J Recent) now demote only a turn the user stopped. A failure is news the user has not seen, so it keeps its completion time, ranks in the Done class, stays retained after its pane goes away, and a retained failure reads failed in the worktree rollup instead of done. Clean-finish policy (hibernation, pane ownership, the value moment) still treats a failure like a stop. The retention trigger compares verdicts again: success -> failure no longer moves the completion clock. * fix(native-chat): a failed main agent reads failed while its subagents still work The verdict is now read from the main agent's own state, not the folded row: a main agent that is done and failed has a verdict even while its subagents keep the row working. Without mainAgent (history, worktree ps, older hosts) the old combined-done rule stands. Display marks the verdict through agentVerdictDisplayMark: a failure outranks every combined state on the agent's dot, label, tab badge, dashboard and activity rows; a stop marks only a done row, so a successful or stopped main agent with live subagents still reads working. Subagent rows keep their own state. The worktree card, terminal tab and Cmd+J rollups share one pane fold and rank a pending question, then failed, then working, monitoring, interrupted and done. worktree ps publishes the main agent's outcome on a working row, and the mobile mirror reads it. The store's change check, the paired-client mirror's equality and its epoch now see a verdict change on a working row, which otherwise moves no state or clock and left the worktree card reading working. Clean-finish policy is unchanged: a working row is never hibernated and has no completion time. * docs(native-chat): the worktree ps outcome comment no longer claims old hosts send it The field is new: an old host sends no outcome at all, so a reader falls back to interrupted. The removed clause said old hosts send it on done rows, which never shipped. * docs(native-chat): the status-store listing rule names provider-journaled user messages * fix(native-chat): a refused send notifies failed through the completion feed The host's completion feed followed only the newest turn, so a send the agent or its start refused, which creates no turn, read Failed on its row but sent no notification. The feed now follows the session's latest request, read from the projection the status feed already makes for the commit: a turn keeps its id, a refused send is named by its journal item key. It announces only while the session is idle, as the row reports a verdict, so queued sends refused one commit at a time notify once, and a withdrawn send falls back to a request already announced. * fix(native-chat): every copy of a row carries the main agent's own status History entries, sleep records and `worktree ps` rows carried a flattened top-level `outcome`, copied under different gates and without the main agent's clock. They now carry `mainAgent` (state, outcome, stateStartedAt), the type the live row already persists and sends, and every copy site takes it with `interrupted` through one function, `agentVerdictFields`. - The accessor reads `mainAgent` then the legacy flag; the mobile mirror matches it line for line. - Sleep records admit `mainAgent` with `normalizeMainAgentStatusField`, so a malformed value drops the field, never the record. - Mobile dates a main agent that failed under live subagents by its own clock, as desktop does, and its row equality compares `mainAgent`. - The activity feed reads a history entry's own `mainAgent` instead of rebuilding one; the sync key and history equality compare it. * test(native-chat): pin the worktree ps verdict across host and phone versions Pairs the real v1.4.212 host and phone row reader with this build: an old phone reads a new host's rows by `interrupted`, a new phone reads an old host's rows (no `mainAgent`) the same way, and a new phone reads a failure under live subagents as Failed, dated by `mainAgent.stateStartedAt`. The release checkout now carries the phone's self-contained row reader, and the lane runs when the `worktree ps` row producers change. * test(mobile): name the parity table's row for its role * fix(native-chat): a request that settles while the user is asked something notifies once The completion edge waited for an idle session, and a pending prompt (including a subagent's approval) is not idle. Structured chat has no other attention producer, so a main turn that finished while a subagent waited on the user sent nothing until the prompt was answered. The edge now waits only on owed work (a running turn or an unanswered send), which the projection reports even beneath a pending prompt. A request that settles with a prompt pending announces once; the renderer words it "needs input" from the host status mirror's `attention`, and answering the prompt keeps the same request identity, so it does not announce again. The wire shape is unchanged. * fix(native-chat): the completion says when the user is being asked A request that settles while a prompt waits on the user was worded "needs input" from the renderer's status-feed mirror. Remote clients receive the status and completion streams over separate sockets, so they can arrive in either order and the wording could be wrong both ways. The host already knows at emit time, so the completion now carries an optional `awaitingUser: true` in that case and omits it otherwise. The renderer words the notification from that field alone and no longer reads the status mirror. Old clients ignore the field and word by outcome; old hosts never send it. * fix(worktree-status): a departed agent's failure yields to live work on the worktree card A retained failed agent has no expiry, so ranking it with a live failure pinned the card to Failed over other panes' live work. It now ranks below working, monitoring and permission, and above every finished outcome. * docs(agent-status): a departed agent's failure ranks below live work on the worktree card * fix(native-chat): a view never restarts a chat whose last start failed A Claude chat whose CLI exits during startup left one red row per start, and every time a view bound to it (the chat opening right after its create died, or the user switching back to it) the hold started the CLI again, so the same launch-failure row repeated. Only a send retries a failed start now, the same rule provider-exit recovery already applied; the rule lives in one predicate the hold, exit recovery and the delivery loop share. * test(native-chat): start the child the loop waits on with an attach, not a second view A view no longer starts a child whose last start failed, so the R2 case that waits on a child started since the failure now gets that child from a client attach, the one non-send starter left. * fix(native-chat): settle a gone generation's turn wherever a conversation opens A send that opens a chat this process had not read yet (after a crash, from a phone or the CLI) went through the delivery open, which never settled what the dead generation left running; only the read restore and a successful acquire did. When the send's start then failed, the turn stayed running for every reader. The settlement now runs in the one journal open, at the crash boundary, for every opener except an acquisition, which settles from the evidence it read before its reserve; the read restore's separate step is gone. * test(native-chat): prove the next child's start settles the turn an earlier child left The R1 case lost its only settlement assertion when the latch it checked was deleted. It now seeds the running turn the earlier child left and asserts it ends at the exit's receipt, with the exit's row, before the message is handed to the new child. * test(native-chat): count a failed start's rows by row, not by text Comparing the set of texts passed when two different rows carried the same words, which is the duplicate the test exists to catch. * test(cross-version): load the phone row readers without mobile's toolchain Vite transforms a file against its nearest tsconfig, and mobile/tsconfig.json extends expo/tsconfig.base.json, which the root-only cross-version lane never installs. The worktree ps verdict suite imported the current phone row reader from mobile/ directly, so CI failed with TSConfckParseError before any test ran. The harness now imports a copy of the working-tree reader placed under the checkout cache, where the root tsconfig applies, as it already does for the release checkout's copy. Both readers are still the real files. * test(cross-version): keep the checkout path-guard message and justify the copy import's cast * test(native-chat): give the failed-start and stale-turn waits a loaded runner's budget * test(native-chat): pin the open's and the send's start and row counts, however the view binds Opening a fresh chat whose starts fail makes one start and one row, with two views bound before or after the create's child died; one send makes one more of each. * fix(native-chat): settle a gone generation's turn at every open but an acquisition's The journal open skipped the settlement whenever the lease read reserved or live, to leave an acquisition's own open to the acquisition. But a lease a crashed process left in recovery also reads live, until the next acquire resolves it. A send that opened such a chat, from a phone or the CLI after a crash on a host that could not prove the old owner gone, skipped the settlement; when its start then failed, the dead turn stayed running for every reader. The acquisition now says it is the opener, and every other open settles, whatever the lease still claims. * test(native-chat): hold the create's start open until the views bind The "view binds while the create is still starting" case gave the create a 300 ms head start and asserted the views bound before it died. On a loaded runner the holds took longer, the create's exit landed first, and the case failed its own precondition. The create's initialize now waits on a gate the test releases once the views are bound. * refactor(native-chat): drop the composer's second error formatter After the merge with main, every chat write in the composer path reports its failure as a typed outcome worded by the refusal-notice table, so the send's catch sees only a local throw. The {code, message} formatter this branch added for it has no payload left to format, and its claim to be the one way a chat words a failure is no longer true. The composer send is main's again. * test(native-chat): pin the reason on a message rejected while its chat was closed The reopen test checked only that the message reads as not sent; it now also checks the Retry row carries the host's reason. * fix(native-chat): a send the provider never received after a restart has no verdict Restart reconciliation rejects a crash-stranded send that is absent from a trustworthy provider history with reason 'not_delivered'. Nobody failed that send, but the verdict allowlist did not name it, so after a crash the chat read Failed, was listed, and could notify "failed". Give the reason a shared constant (persisted value unchanged), add it to the no-verdict set, and treat it as an internal marker so the Retry row no longer shows the raw string. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-27 22:23:49 -07:00
