Four values complete the vocabulary, so the opaque body is reached only by
producers that genuinely promise no shape.
`snapshot` — current state a later snapshot supersedes. system-prompt now
exposes `renderContextSections()`, the named contributions
`renderContextSnapshot()` already joins for the model, so the body attributes
each part to the subsystem that produced it instead of re-splitting joined
prose. The runtime snapshot, time-context, and tmux-context declare it.
`notice` — a one-off account of what just happened, declared by tool-tasks,
goal state changes, tool-goal wrap-up, plan-mode switches, and
repeat-tool-guard. Its `summary` rides the COLLAPSED row: these five are the
majority of shipped producers and none of them needs expanding to be read.
The task summary bounds itself because its inputs are unbounded caller text.
`relay` — a message another agent addressed to this one; both subagent
sources declare it and the body names the sender above what it said.
`recall` — material lifted from another session's log. session-reference
needed no new field: its references already record retained and omitted
counts and the truncation flag, which the body shows first, because recalled
context is bounded on the way in.
`ContextFormed` is now discriminated by `form`, so a producer cannot declare
a shape without the facts that shape is presented from — a notice without its
summary, or a snapshot without its sections, fails to compile.
Only the two hook bridges stay opaque, by design: their content is whatever
an external program printed, so no shape can be promised for it. Unknown
kinds and unreadable records land there too.
Resolve the agent-loop import conflict by retaining both durable request context and runtime policy context. Refresh the combined session fixtures and regenerate documentation catalogs. Mark PDF artifacts as binary so staged whitespace checks do not parse PDF bytes as text.
The native adapter's route was named deepseek, colliding with pi-ai's
catalog provider of the same name, so the two DeepSeek paths could never
be mounted side by side. The web settings page needs both configurable at
once. Compositions, fixtures, goldens, scaffolding defaults, and docs all
move together (pre-release, no shim); TUI/session-query-spill/
missing-credential goldens re-recorded through their keyless refresh
modes because provider-name length shifts box padding and spill
truncation points.
Replace send/steer/inject with one Agent.send primitive over the
(target × wakeup) matrix; followup/steer/inject become fixed-preset
alias methods on the now-abstract Agent class. Coalesce context/message
into user/message (injected context is a non-user source). Replace
agent/queued with agent/inbox/enqueue/dequeue/discard, add cancel
keepInbox, and add a FIFO-conservation invariant.
Restack on the carved-out foundation (#192), per review feedback on #170.
The seam files resolve to the carve-out's revision — its prompt-order
neutrality fix (backends no longer inject 'tools'; the structured runtime
gates its own capture-tool registration) restores the subagent tools to
master's front position, so every recorded fixture is re-recorded on the
stacked tree and the authored error-finish/cancel headers re-patched to the
stacked tool list ([subagent, subagent_fork, workflow, todo_write, ...]).
Every session.jsonl fixture embedded the full composed system prompt and
complete tool-schema list in its request/header event (~8 KB on one line,
identical across the suite), so any prompt or tool-schema edit forced a
re-record or hand-edit of every fixture — see the dynamic-workflows PR for
the churn pattern this removes.
Now exactly one scenario (text-turn, flagged pinsHeader) commits and
compares that content verbatim; every other fixture stores and compares it
as {{system}}/{{tools}} tokens via the new pure scrubRequestHeaders
normalizer (applied to both compare sides and to record-mode writes, so a
re-record cannot reintroduce the content). request/header-delta payloads
are scrubbed the same way; config/reason stay verbatim — a model swap
SHOULD churn every fixture, a prompt edit should not. Replay is unaffected:
script derivation reads only assistant/chunk events.
Fixture meta-guards enforce the split: non-pinning fixtures must be fixed
points of the scrub, the pinning fixture must not be, and exactly one
scenario pins. Committed fixtures migrated through the same function.
Docs: pinned-header RFC (implemented/testing), base snapshot RFC + testing
policy + llm-replay module doc/README updated.
Master's reconstructable-requests overhaul (#179) meets the workflow tool:
- subagent-inprocess structured-output nudge becomes a system-prompt section
plus logged context (the injected-request waterfall shape is gone upstream)
- snapshot fixtures re-recorded on the merged tree so every request/header
carries the workflow tool; authored error-finish/cancel headers patched to
the merged tool list and system text
- architecture.md condensed back under its word ceiling; module graph regenerated
One re-record after the header events landed: recorded scenarios
re-harvested against the live API; the three fs-writing fixtures are
relativized (this recording's model happened to emit absolute
file_path arguments, which only round-trip through replay when the
path is cwd-independent) and, with the two never-re-recorded authored
scenarios (error-finish, cancel), rewritten in the normalized
authored-fixture form the harness documents — each now carrying the
request/header snapshot the loop logs before its first dispatch.
Keyless replay verified green across all 35 scenarios.
Load both hook bridges in the ACP example (dsh-hooks-claude → ./hooks.json,
dsh-hooks-codex → ./codex-hooks.json) so the full-transcript snapshot tier can
exercise each dialect against the real app. An absent config file is a silent
no-op, so a scenario carries only the file it needs and the other bridge
vanishes — verified byte-identical against every pre-existing snapshot.
Add a scenario per hook point × its headline Decision outcome, both dialects:
UserPromptSubmit block (authored, keyless) + context-fold, PreToolUse deny/ask,
PostToolUse block/context, Stop force-continue. The mid-turn scenarios are
recorded against the real API with the hook active, so the model's reaction to
a denied/blocked/force-continued turn is part of the replayed transcript.
SessionStart and SubagentStart are deliberately excluded (detached best-effort
inject races the log position — a recorded golden fails 10/10 on its own
replay), as is SubagentStop (observe-only, zero transcript footprint — a golden
could never be proven to fail). Both stay on the bridges' unit coverage. See
docs/rfc/implemented/testing/2026-07-04-hook-snapshot-matrix.md.
