The debounced writer assigns undefined on flush, which a plain optional
NodeJS.Timeout rejects under exactOptionalPropertyTypes; the error had
been masked by stale build state until a residue cleanup invalidated it.
Logged as local modification 14 in the vendor manifest.
Invocation is an ordinary session.prompt again: the pre-step gesture
boundary makes it deterministic host-side for every front end, so the
dedicated RPC (handler, wire schema, error codes, client face, fixtures)
and ui-skill's claim machinery are net deletions. The menu keeps decision
21 exactly — a pick lands literal /name text — plus the user-only marker
from skill.list's modelInvocable flag.
A whitespace-bounded /name token anywhere in a claimed user message,
naming a user-invocable skill in the workspace directory, now injects that
skill's renderSkillContent as instructions context appended after every
other injection of the step — the same agent/pre-step seam the catalog,
workspace instructions, and the runtime snapshot ride. Closed-set matching
mirrors the command registry (a miss stays plain prose), only user-source
messages are scanned, the policy check runs on the loaded definition, and
this is the sole entry point for disable-model-invocation skills. The
catalog's no-reload sentence now names the gesture boundary.
The user-turn predicate (opensUserTurn) unifies the three parallel
consumers a new node kind silently missed — produced-files turn reset,
retry liveness, own-words force-scroll — so a skill invocation behaves as
the turn opener it is. The menu marker resolves through ctx.locale.bind
instead of a hand-rolled snapshot lookup; the dead legacy <skill> render
arm goes with the removal cut; command-over-skill name precedence is now
documented at the matchEnter seam; and the emptied replacement catalog
keeps the no-reload sentence, with the never-published residual recorded
in the Agent Note.
Review fixes: recheck isUserInvocable on the loaded definition (list and
get collect independently, so a provider change between them could swap in
a user-disabled body — the skill-tool execute template's second check);
thread the carrier signal through the lookup and refuse an abandoned
caller's turn as cancelled; fold lookup/loader failures into the
structured internal error the list face already uses; refuse cwd-less
sessions with the skill.list stance; and reject blank trailing text at the
wire schema instead of relying on client trimming.
Maintainer ruling on the review's merge-semantics warning: per-model
reasoning fields belong to the settings document, not cordis.yml entry
config (the shipped composition mounts the adapter dormant), so the
recursive-merge delete gap is a documented posture rather than a tracked
fix; the Known Limitations entry now states the assumption instead of
pointing at the closed#2003.
The duplication gate caught the two schema literals diverging only by
the id field; the shared dict is now the single home, with the id added
where it lives (the entry) and omitted where the dict key carries it.
Review findings on #1977, each verified before acting: the 2026-08-03
declared-provider-catalog note is updated in place and cross-linked both
ways now that reasoningEfforts/compat reopened half of its rejected
alternative; resolveModelCompat inherits the catalog entry's compat only
while the resolved api still is the entry's own, so a route-level api
repoint no longer merges another protocol's shape as a completions base;
the off-with-value promise gains a request-boundary test proving pi-ai
reads thinkingLevelMap.off when the reasoning option is absent (and the
catalog-level test name stops overclaiming); the cannot-stop-thinking
wording narrows to what is actually enforced (no Off offered, explicit
Off refused — an effortless request goes out bare); the z.const(null)
comment attributes null passthrough to schemastery's nullable
short-circuit; the baseten drift-gate claim names its verification
source; and the layered-merge delete gap for dict keys is documented
under Known Limitations with the atomic-leaf follow-up in #2003.
The web app project excludes every e2e file (they are host-plane programs)
and tsconfig.host.json includes them one by one; the new scenario joins
both lists so it keeps typecheck coverage without dragging host sources
into the client project.
Bilingual README updates for the four touched packages (ui-skill's claim
flow and deterministic-injection model experience, the apiproxy skills
domain, the shared renderSkillContent seam export, the catalog stitch
sentence), the implemented Agent Note triplet recording the decision and
its peer-product evidence, and the regenerated catalogs/graphs.
turnAgentFor owns the addressed-agent resolution and the model-unavailable
refusal both turn-starting methods repeat; the duplication gate flagged the
copied block.
The policy scenario now expects the user-only quadrant in the menu with
its marker (riding the description — the hint field is claim-state ghost
text, which the menu never renders), and a new skill-user-invoke scenario
drives /name args through the composer against the real host: the claim
lands skill.invoke, the transcript shows the dedicated card with the
collapsed <skill_content> body, and a paced replay answers the injected
turn deterministically.
The user guide's model-catalog section teaches the three new knobs at
task altitude — declare levels per model, pick the reasoning dialect,
reshape catalog models with modelOverrides — with the settings.yaml
example exercising all of them, plus an UNSUPPORTED_REASONING_EFFORT
troubleshooting row. The generated plugin config catalog picks up the
new Config fields, and the bilingual Agent Note records the decision,
the alternatives considered, and the schemastery materialization
constraint that chose false over {} as the disable spelling.
A user/message carrying the skill-invocation source materializes as its
own conversation node (name/args lifted off the source metadata, never
re-parsed from the body) and renders as a right-aligned bubble: the /name
chip plus the user's trailing text, with the injected <skill_content>
collapsed behind a disclosure. A record with an unreadable name degrades
to the injected-context row.
A menu pick or an entered /name line now claims the composer into an
args-tolerant skill.invoke transaction instead of shipping the literal
text and hoping the model loads the skill. This gives every user-invocable
skill a deterministic entry point — including disable-model-invocation
skills the catalog never shows the model (issue #1470). Candidates carry
a user-only hint, and the unreached legacy <skill> reference codec is
removed (decision 21 removal cut).
A route's modelOverrides dict customizes individual installed-catalog
models — key = catalog model id, value = the same fields a models entry
takes — while the rest of the catalog keeps serving, which a models list
cannot express because declaring one replaces the served set. An
override becomes the catalog entry's configuration and resolves through
the existing entry path, so capacities, reasoningEfforts, compat, and
request-default semantics are identical to a models entry's. Unlike
Pi's config layer, which ignores unknown ids, every override that lands
nowhere is refused at the write that produced it: beside a models list,
on a hand-declared route, naming a model the catalog does not describe,
or smuggling an id through the schema's unknown-key tolerance.
Both catalog renderings now tell the model that a directly invoked skill
arrives as an inline <skill_content> block to follow without re-loading it
through the skill tool — the seam rule that keeps the user-explicit path
and the model-autonomous path from double-injecting one skill.
A model entry's reasoningEfforts dict declares its selectable thinking
levels — key = offered level, value = the wire spelling dispatch sends;
only off may leave the value empty (supported, send nothing). false
strips reasoning from a catalog model; every level is materialized
explicitly into pi-ai's thinkingLevelMap so nobody has to know pi-ai's
asymmetric absent-key defaulting. compat.thinkingFormat and
compat.supportsReasoningEffort become configurable on the route and per
model (model > route > catalog entry > pi-ai's URL-derived guess),
openai-completions only, so a private gateway speaking the DeepSeek
reasoning dialect no longer depends on its URL being recognizable.
Record-typed drift gates pin both enums to pi-ai's, and an unserviceable
declaration is refused at the write that produced it, naming route,
model, and level.
skill.list now serves every user-invocable skill and carries modelInvocable
so menus can mark user-only entries; the old model-and-user intersection
hid disable-model-invocation skills from their only legitimate entry point
(issue #1470). skill.invoke enforces user-invocation policy at the host
boundary, renders the canonical <skill_content> body, and injects it as a
user-role message carrying the skill-invocation source before starting a
turn. The connection fixture mirrors both faces for client tests.
