A plugin owning a standalone open/close bracket cannot tell a dead marker
from a live one: an unmatched `compact/start` reads identically whether the
previous writer died mid-compaction or a compaction is running now.
`Session.firstLiveSeq` already holds that answer exactly, but only in memory.
Append the log-only `session/inherited` event at that seq from the seeded
constructor — the single waist all six seeded-start paths pass through
(resume, configured startup on a persisted id, `sessions.fork()`, a subagent
fork child, `adopt()`'s live prefix, and a bare seeded `create`). Read it
through the new `isInheritedSeq(events, seq)`.
The constructor placement means persistence needs no changes: the marker is
already in `events` when a backend captures the creation seed, so it rides
the ordinary seed path with no load-time write. It also covers fork, where
the inherited bracket's owner may still be running — the case a
persistence-layer boundary could not reach.
Activity ordering excludes the boundary through `lastActivityTime()`, since
lazy resume makes browsing a pickup and the three call sites would otherwise
float every opened session to the top of a picker or list.
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.
cancel() emitted agent/cancel-requested whenever queued or steering work
existed, even under keepInbox with no active turn — a call the contract
documents as a no-op. Consumers could misread that notification as a real
cancellation. Emit only when the call actually aborts the active turn or
discards pending work, matching the "effective call" contract.
goal-session rides retry turns and survives admission failures. A
recovery policy closes a goal round's failed turn and reopens its
history under a retry trigger; the attempt now adopts that turn and
drops the failed turn's provisional reason, so the round settles from
the retry's own outcome instead of blocking an armed goal with
turn-error after a successful response. A downstream admission hook
that throws (rather than blocks) used to strand the queued reservation
forever; the listener now clears a still-turnless matching attempt on
the rejection path and reschedules the round.
agent-loop contains a persistently rejecting step close in the catch
path the same way the finally contains the turn close, so the
post-finally tail always publishes the terminal status — previously a
double veto escaped run(), leaving status at running while whenIdle()
resolved. The whenIdle catch arm is annotated as the backstop it now
is: every driver rejection path is contained today.
workspace-context folds an already-appended baseline from the session
log when the plugin is hot-remounted over a live session, instead of
injecting a duplicate from its fresh mount-local guard.
The TUI's reference-admission discard listener installs before
followup(): admission runs synchronously inside it on the common path,
so a listener installed afterwards missed its own cleanup and leaked
one callback per referenced prompt.
agent-loop lifecycle: dispose drains machine.done to true quiescence.
cancel()'s own running-to-idle transition can legitimately re-enter
through an automation listener (goal-session's idle drive runs
synchronously to its first await) and replace done with a fresh
admission after the single capture; teardown now re-cancels and
re-awaits until the slot stabilizes, so the scope never unwinds under a
live run.
tools: a nested concludeTurn() stages on its own execution and promotes
to the enclosing composite only on the call's authoritative successful
verdict. A post-execute policy that converts the nested success into an
error no longer lets a recovering composite stop the turn on a failed
terminal operation (the Code Mode structured-output shape).
goal-session: the driver owns its round durability barrier again. The
loop's persistence is eager write-behind with no turn-end flush, so the
old post-turn agent/error signal for flush failures never fires; a
settled round now sets needsCheckpoint and re-enters drive, flushing
before the next reservation and disarming on failure instead of queueing
an autonomous round on state that was never persisted.
agent-loop: behavior tests for retry-while-busy, cancelled recovery
windows, no-facts stream failures, idle-listener preemption, rejected
driver promises under whenIdle, finish-chunk failures after step close,
presentationMeta persistence, pre-aborted and torn-down create/resume
signals, and configured-start failures over existing artifacts or after
teardown. The remaining guards that no public path can reach carry
justified v8 ignore annotations naming the invariant that starves them.
acp bridge: cover the retry-adoption path (a retry turn resolves the
prompt the failed turn deferred), the no-retry quiescence rejection, and
the admission-blocked cancelled settlement; the synchronous send-throw
catch is annotated as a future-proofing guard since the machine's send()
contains listener failures.
Downstream packages lost the tests that exercised their agent-loop-facing
edges when the loop was rewritten. Restore 100% per-file coverage with
behavior tests through public seams: llm-retry config validation and
cancellation races, goal replay drift/staleness/teardown edges, plan-mode
disposed-flush, workspace-context empty-change commits, api-proxy
synchronous send failures, acp-snapshot spill-path extraction and refresh
write-back, ACP injection-triggered turns, cli-demo and tui inbox
lifecycle edges, and agent-loop retry/settlement/lifecycle branches.
The only source changes are narrowly-justified v8 ignore annotations on
invariant guards and one redundant-guard removal (workspace-context).
concludesTurn is terminal: a completed step now carries the concluded fact
to the driver, which ends the turn immediately instead of letting steering
that arrived during the tool batch (or from an agent/stopping listener)
reopen it. The steering is not lost — it drained into the log as
steering/message before the decision point, so it feeds the next turn's
request. Also annotates the driver's unreachable invariant guards
(exhaustiveness default, abort-slot ownership) for the coverage gate.
