A pi-ai route had to name an installed catalog provider, served that
catalog's models verbatim, and could override only the endpoint. An
OpenAI-compatible gateway, a self-hosted server, or a model newer than
the pinned pi-ai release was therefore unreachable, and a stale context
window could not be corrected without upgrading the package.
A route is now a declaration whose defaults come from the installed
catalog. `catalog.ts` merges that catalog under the profile's own model
entries, `provider.ts` builds the pi-ai Provider (reusing the catalog
provider when the route keeps its protocol, so implementations this
package cannot reconstruct keep working), and the adapter serves every
operation from one `createModels()` collection. That also retires the
`@earendil-works/pi-ai/compat` import, which pi-ai documents as a
temporary entry point it deletes with its ModelManager migration.
Credentials stay on the harness seam: the resolved key rides the request
as pi-ai's highest-priority auth override, so `Models` holds no
credential store and a named-but-missing reference still fails loud
instead of falling back to an unrelated ambient key.
A model's configured maxTokens now reaches the seam as defaultMaxTokens.
trim and escape commute for every input, so the new whitespace test does
not pin their order: UNPRINTABLE and LONE_SURROGATE are disjoint from the
set trim() strips, and both escapes emit plain non-whitespace ASCII,
leaving the leading and trailing whitespace runs byte-identical. State that instead of the false causal clause.
pyScalar's Literal path escapes nothing itself -- JSON.stringify is what
keeps it parseable, covering NUL and, under ES2019 well-formed
stringification, unpaired surrogates. Record the dependency and turn it
into a checked invariant. Pin the docstring emission site for a lone
surrogate too, mirroring the NUL case.
Two docstring corrections: describe's caller enumeration omitted the
synthetic { description } wrapper docLines builds, and "special in
statement position" does not describe `_`, which is special in a match
pattern. Both keep the conclusion they support.
Note which of the two table guards fires depends on the entry point.
The headless shutdown probe needs a plugin that refuses to dispose, so
the second Ctrl+C has something to force past. Writing it to the Harness
home stopped working when the personal composition layer was deleted:
nothing is discovered there, the plugin never mounted, and the first
signal drained cleanly — leaving the second PTY action to time out.
Review follow-ups on the column-overflow scenario:
- Memoize the sweep so the golden and the assertions consume the same
readings, which is what its contract already claimed; two runs could
disagree if a resize settled differently between them.
- Settle the column width before the mutation control measures. The test
arrives from 1680 alone and from the sweep's 600 in a full run, and the
frame eases its column tracks, so an immediate read can report the
previous viewport's bleed.
- Name the wheel delta, assert the bleed stays inside it, and compare the
travelled distance rounded: a clamp or a sub-pixel would otherwise read
as a broken fix.
The 0 the shipped column reports cannot be reached by polling for a settled
value, so the read is a fixed wait; make that wait cover a smooth-scroll
animation on any engine the lane runs on. Identical on both sides of the
mutation control, which is what keeps the 0 evidence rather than a race won.
The hero's backdrop ellipse is sized 1051/776 of the hero box so its blur
scales with the input card, which means it reaches past the column whenever
the column is narrower than the glow. `[data-conversation-scroll]` declared
only `overflow-y: auto`, and a box that scrolls in one axis computes the
other axis's initial `visible` to `auto` — so that bleed came back as a real
horizontal scrollbar, 24–95px of range across ordinary laptop widths.
Declare `overflow-x: hidden` on the column instead of leaving the second axis
to be derived. Clipping is unchanged (the box already clipped both axes); the
declaration withdraws only the bar and the user gesture.
U+00AD is 0xAD, so "Cf cannot be addressed by \xNN" was false for the
first example in its own list. The real boundary is the category: one
\xNN form covers Cc exactly, and escaping the single addressable Cf
member would leave a rule that is neither category- nor
addressability-shaped.
A lone surrogate is the NUL case rather than the invisible-character
case -- Python source must be UTF-8-encodable, and compile() raises
UnicodeEncodeError for one in a string literal or a # comment alike
(measured on 3.9). JSON.parse on a wire "\ud800" escape produces them,
so escape them as \uNNNN; the regex's u flag keeps well-formed astral
pairs intact.
Pin the whitespace-plus-surviving-control boundary, which also pins
trim-after-escape.
Unicode Cc is U+0000-U+001F plus U+007F-U+009F, and no C1 code point is
ECMAScript whitespace, so U+0080-U+009F all survived the collapse and
reached the docstring raw and invisible -- the gap the previous commit
closed for NEL alone. \xNN addresses the whole block, which is the same
reason the set stops at Cc, so widen the class to U+009F and pin
U+009B/U+009C/U+009F.
Windows-1252 bytes 0x80-0x9F decoded as Latin-1 produce exactly these.
Also: required TypedDict fields share the optional fields' listDepth
start, and a description of whitespace plus a surviving control
character is not absent.
The TTFT and tok/s readings divide by measured wall time, so they are not
reproducible: the same replayed scenario yielded 69 and 70 tok/s on
consecutive local runs, and a 3 ms replayed stream reads 26333 tok/s. Baking
those into committed goldens made the Web lane flaky by construction, and the
goldens for the readings themselves were never refreshed.
Three fixes, then a refresh:
The footer's decorative dots are `aria-hidden`, so the readings concatenated
into one accessible string — `Ran for 13sTTFT 0.2s12 tok/s`. That is a real
defect on its own (a reader hears one run-on instead of three facts) and it
also denied `{{duration}}` the word boundary it matches on, so even the
previously-stable `Ran for` duration started leaking raw. The separators now
carry flanking spaces.
`normalizeAria` gains `{{throughput}}` beside `{{duration}}`, and its duration
alternation accepts the stats line's compact `2m42s` as well as the
message-chrome template's `2m 42s` — the compact form had no pattern at all,
which is why `LLM 382m39s` survived the first refresh.
Refreshed 17 goldens. They also record that the stats line's `LLM` group now
renders at all: it folds assistant `timing`, which the live transcript adapter
only began attaching in this branch, so the group was previously dead in Chat.
Verified by running the lane in replay three times after the refresh: 41/41
files green each time, goldens untouched. Before this change two consecutive
runs disagreed on both the values and the failure count.
The merge staged the `--ours` consistency records before the merged prose was
re-recorded, so the committed hashes still describe the pre-merge content and
`verify-translation-pairing` rejects the pair. Re-record all three against
what actually merged.
The static-stub sentence over-generalized: `tools` and `ToolCallError`
ARE bound at run time, and a model reading "everything below is a stub"
could stop catching `ToolCallError`. State the boundary and pin both
halves in the fixed-instruction assertions.
UNPRINTABLE missed U+0085: it is Cc but not ECMAScript whitespace, so
it survived the collapse and reached the docstring raw and invisible.
Add it and scope the docstring to Cc, since the `\xNN` escape cannot
address the Cf formatting characters that pass through by design.
Record the backend PR's two runtime contracts -- inject only `tools`
and `ToolCallError`, and bind the assembly-time language to the
request -- in the Agent Note and at requireCodeRuntime.
- `relay` resolves its sender in `contextBody` like every other form. It was
the one shape whose marker could claim a form the body did not render: an
unreadable sender fell back inside the body while the row still said relay,
contradicting the contract this PR's own note states.
- `recall` requires the retained, omitted, and truncated fields. Completeness
is what the card exists to report, so a reference that cannot state it is
not a readable recall — showing the label alone presents a confident card
over unknown loss.
- The snapshot body states the supersession its producer framing line carries.
That line is the one part of the model-facing text no section contains, and
unlike an instruction context's `<system-reminder>` it states the form's own
semantics rather than wrapping content.
- `GoalMessageSource` is a discriminated pair, so `{ form: 'notice' }` without
its account no longer compiles. The guarantee this PR claims now holds at
that seam too, not only through `ContextFormed` on plugin sources.
- Goal and tool-goal summaries are bounded by a shared `boundContextSummary`,
which tool-tasks now uses as well. A goal objective is unbounded caller text
in exactly the way a task label is.
- The runtime snapshot interpolates once per request: agent-loop renders the
sections and joins them through `joinContextSections`.
- Every form's fallback branch is pinned, not only the notice one.
A TypedDict reads as a constructible class, so a model that writes
FooArgs(field=1) fails with NameError before dispatch: the run request
injects only the tools namespace and ToolCallError. Say so in
SDK_INSTRUCTIONS and require plain dict/list JSON arguments. The TS
flavor needs no counterpart -- interface is visibly a type and its
"runs type-stripped" clause already covers erasure.
The rebase carried the simple-interface block from the base branch, while
this branch turned ContextFormed into a per-form discriminated union;
ContextSnapshotSection gets its own block so the page stays self-contained.
The row header already names the producer, so `goalChangeSummary` dropped its
redundant `goal ` prefix; the ACP and headless goal scenarios still pinned the
old string.
The e2e lane pinned the pre-form source shape, so it failed on CI while the
unit lane passed; the reading is now a `snapshot`-form context carrying one
named contribution.
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.
- Content blocks render in the order the model received them. Partitioning
hoisted every unknown block past the text around it, so an interleaved log
read back in an order the model never saw.
- A delta distinguishes a newly reconciled file from a rewritten one; `set`
and `replace` already separate them at the producer, and collapsing both to
"updated" misread a new file.
- The superseded note states current fact in its consequences and testing
rather than keeping claims the implementation now contradicts, per
implemented/AGENTS.md; the decision itself stays as the record of that
change, with the supersession pointer above it.
The composer ring, percentage, and `~used / capacity` header read
`contextPressure.pressureTokens`, which moves only when a request reports
usage. Compaction reports none — compact-basic summarizes through a direct
`ctx.llm.stream()` call and appends only its own `compact/*` records plus the
replacement `user/message` — so the meter was frozen across the one action
taken to change it. Driving a real `compactNow` through the agent loop:
BEFORE compact: ring=4% header=~4227/100000 rows=[18, 0, 4365]
AFTER compact: ring=4% header=~4227/100000 rows=[18, 0, 286]
The composition rows fell 93%; the ring did not move, and would not until an
entire further turn completed. The panel then contradicted itself by more than
an order of magnitude at exactly the moment a reader opens it.
`contextPressure` now also publishes `projectedTokens`: the provider sample
plus the heuristic repricing of everything the surface gained or lost since
that sample, clamped at zero, folded through the shared `surface-fold.ts`. The
sample is stamped before the same event joins the surface, so an
`assistant/message` anchors against the surface its own request carried. Only
the delta is estimated, so the figure stays provider-anchored — the estimator's
CJK and JSON-schema underpricing stays out of the occupancy number — while
reacting the moment content lands or a span is shadowed. Same run after:
BEFORE compact: ring=4% header=~4323/100000 (pressure=4227, projected=4323)
AFTER compact: ring=0% header=~ 244/100000 (pressure=4227, projected= 244)
`contextOccupancy` prefers the projected figure and falls back to the bare
sample, so a projection restored from a pre-field checkpoint degrades to the
old behavior rather than disappearing. `stateVersion` moves to 3.
- An empty replacement catalog is a real catalog: `renderCatalogUpdate()`
publishes zero entries when the last skill disappears, and falling back
would hide that every earlier name was retired.
- The opaque fallback keeps a `form` declaration this version cannot present.
It is the one place a newer or foreign log's declared shape would otherwise
vanish from the UI entirely, since the row marker is also absent there.
- An instruction change with an unrecognized `action` disqualifies the record.
The action decides the word the row shows, so an unknown one would be
presented as loaded or updated.
- The catalog list bounds itself and reports the withheld count. Entry count
is unbounded and the scrollport bounds height, not node count.
- A catalog message keeps content blocks this version does not know, instead
of dropping model-visible content the extensible union may carry.
- `core.md` defines `ContextFormed`, the interface actually carrying the
optional field, beside `ContextForm`.
- The superseded-in-part bullet states the affected clauses as one rule rather
than enumerating them; two rounds of enumeration each missed some, which is
the shape being fragile rather than the list being wrong.
- The note records the one migration case that does not self-heal: an
old-format catalog as the only one, with an empty current view, leaves a
stale catalog nothing replaces.
Drop the details-panel Duration toggle: Duration rows always show
integer milliseconds, matching the cell time column. Timeline labels
(Total/TTFT/Decoding) and step-group descriptions previously fell back
to second labels at or above one second; they now also show exact
milliseconds via the shared formatDurationMillis formatter.
`contextBreakdown.messageTokens` and `measure().surfaceTokens` answer the same
question in the same heuristic vocabulary, and the panel's composition rows are
only honest while they agree. Each owner carried its own copy of the positional
fold — same pricing, same `{seq, tokens}` node list, same replace-range lookup
and guard, differing only in mutable versus immutable application — so an edit
to either one would have moved the panel away from `measure()` with both sides
still green. The duplication gate caught the shared 62 tokens.
`src/surface-fold.ts` now owns `foldSurfaceTokens`: total, allocation-fresh,
returning the event's price, the next surface, and the signed total delta. The
service assigns that result where it used to prepare a commit closure, which
keeps its validate-before-mutate replay transaction intact — the fold throws
before any state is touched, so a malformed event still fails identically on
every retry. `_prepareSurfaceMutation` and `_estimateSurfaceEvent` go away with
it, and the projection's apply drops to one call.
Covers the identity with a session that appends and then compacts, asserting
the projection figure equals the service surface at each boundary; the test
fails when either side of the fold is perturbed.
