Summary

  • Preserves live child delegation links across extension host startup when users work in multiple VS Code windows. Previously, when the extension host started in another window, a child task actively running there was misjudged as a crash orphan and repaired, breaking the parent's delegatedToId/awaitingChildId links so completing the subtask failed to return to the parent.

Root Cause

  • TaskHistoryStore.reconcileDelegationState() treated any persisted "active" child without a live session as a crash orphan, regardless of whether another extension host was still actively writing its history file.

Fix (2 files)

  1. src/core/task-persistence/TaskHistoryStore.ts (+35)
    • Add LIVE_CHILD_MTIME_THRESHOLD_MS = 5 * 60 * 1000 (≥ reconcile interval so sparse writers are safe).
    • In reconcile: before repairing a persisted-active child, check its history_item.json mtime. If written within the threshold, the child is live in another window → skip repair and log.
    • New helper getChildFileMtimeMs(childId) returns mtime (undefined → conservatively proceed with repair).
  2. src/core/task-persistence/__tests__/TaskHistoryStore.reconciliation.spec.ts (+98)
    • New tests: "skips repair for active child with recent mtime (live in another window)" and "repairs active child with stale mtime (crash orphan)".
    • Existing multi-window-sensitive tests updated with markStaleMtime() to represent real crash orphans.

Verification

  • Local: TaskHistoryStore.reconciliation.spec.ts 50/50 pass; attemptCompletionTool.spec.ts 22/22; delegation regression specs (history-resume-delegation / nested-delegation-resume) 23/23; tsc --noEmit 0 errors; full lint (13 packages) PASS.
  • Merged into integration build feat/combined-vsix-260903 and shipped in VSIX 3.80.1-combined-260903 — manual multi-window provider-switch → subtask complete → parent return verified.

Notes

  • Fork branch fix/returntoparent is purely this fix (1 commit, 2 files) rebased on latest main.
  • Backups: backup/fix-returntoparent-260903 (originals preserved separately).

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Prevented active tasks in another window from being incorrectly interrupted during startup or periodic recovery.
    • Improved recovery of abandoned delegated tasks by restoring them to an interrupted state when appropriate.
    • Added safeguards against overlapping recovery runs and protected tasks owned by the current window.
    • Improved reliability when resuming tasks, including cleanup when scheduling or preparation fails.
    • Improved retry timing for rate-limit errors using provider-supplied guidance.
    • Improved preservation of reasoning content in conversation history.
  • Documentation

    • Updated task lifecycle documentation to describe cross-window activity and stale-task recovery behavior.

Walkthrough

The change adds cross-window liveness tracking for delegated child tasks. Startup and periodic reconciliation now skip recently modified or locally owned children, while stale or unreadable children are repaired. Repair-intent replay uses the same guard, with expanded lifecycle modeling, provider wiring, typing updates, and tests.

Changes

Delegated task recovery

Layer / File(s) Summary
Cross-window lifecycle model
scripts/check-task-lifecycle.ts, docs/architecture/task-lifecycle-model.md
The model tracks liveElsewhere state, adds reconciliation transitions, preserves live delegated children, and validates the ownership invariant.
Child mtime recovery guard
src/core/task-persistence/TaskHistoryStore.ts, src/core/task-persistence/__tests__/TaskHistoryStore.reconciliation.spec.ts
Startup reconciliation and repair-intent replay use the five-minute child history-file mtime threshold. Tests cover live, stale, unreadable, boundary, and replay cases.
Periodic repair and local ownership
src/core/task-persistence/TaskHistoryStore.ts, src/core/task-persistence/__tests__/TaskHistoryStore.reconciliation.spec.ts
Periodic ticks rerun delegation repair, skip overlapping runs, exclude locally owned active tasks, and maintain ownership across writes, atomic updates, and deletes.
Resumed-task ownership wiring
src/core/webview/ClineProvider.ts, src/__tests__/helpers/provider-stub.ts, src/__tests__/single-open-invariant.spec.ts, src/core/webview/__tests__/ClineProvider.flicker-free-cancel.spec.ts, src/core/webview/__tests__/ClineProvider.markLocallyActive.spec.ts
Resumed tasks claim local ownership before their first active-status write. Failed preparation, stack, and scheduling paths release the claim.
Typed task behavior and validation
src/core/task/Task.ts, src/core/webview/ClineProvider.ts, src/core/task/__tests__/*
Reasoning history, retry metadata, profile lookup, and provider parameters use explicit types. Tests cover reasoning preservation, retry delays, and profile fallback behavior.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 657db

Task recovery can still leave an orphaned parent excluded from repair or misclassify a live delegated child in cross-window edge cases. Resolve these recovery-path issues before merging to avoid broken delegation continuity.

Full details: Lifecycle Resource Cleanup

Explanation

The new locallyActiveTaskIds ownership state can leak task IDs. upsertCore and markLocallyActive add IDs, while reconcile() removes a missing task only from cache and taskFileMtimes; it does not remove the ID from locallyActiveTaskIds. If another window deletes the history file, or reconciliation observes a missing file without a live lock, the ID remains owned for the store lifetime. Periodic reconciliation then filters that ID out and can skip orphan repair if the task ID later reappears. This is a changed lifecycle cleanup path in TaskHistoryStore.reconcile().

Resolution

When reconcile() evicts a task ID because it is absent from liveIds, also remove that ID from locallyActiveTaskIds. Add a regression test that locally owns an active task, removes its history file through the peer-file path, runs reconcile(), and verifies that ownership is cleared and a later periodic pass can repair a stale delegated child.

Assert the unsupported and omitted supportedParameters cases.

parseOpenRouterModel returns an array only when supportedParameters includes "reasoning" and otherwise returns undefined. The existing non-reasoning and omitted-input cases do not assert supportsReasoningEffort, so a regression could enable reasoning for unsupported models without failing this suite. Assert undefined for both cases.

Assert removal of the registered handleMessage callback.

This test still passes if removeEventListener is deleted. After unmount, the DOM assertion remains true, and the idle handleMessage callback does not throw. Without cleanup, the callback remains reachable; when unmounted during Loading, it can update state and invalidate both router-model caches. Repeated refreshStatus changes can also accumulate handlers. Spy on both methods and assert that removeEventListener("message", ...) receives the exact callback registered by addEventListener.

Correlate model refresh responses before updating refresh state.

ApiOptions starts an unscoped useRouterModels() request while OpenRouter can start a scoped manual refresh. The shared handler emits responses without request identifiers. Either response can therefore complete or fail the manual refresh while it is loading. Add request correlation or serialize these requests at the shared boundary.

Release ownership when deferred resume fails

When Task.resumeAfterDelegation() rejects or cancellation prevents startup, ClineProvider.reopenParentFromDelegation() leaves the startTask: false ownership claim active. Task.resumeAfterDelegation() awaits several operations without cleanup, and this path has no markLocallyInactive call. The task ID can remain excluded from orphan repair. Add failure cleanup that releases ownership only when startup did not persist an active status, rethrow the error, and cover rejection and cancellation.

Separate admission failures from task-run failures.

TaskScheduler.schedule awaits run() and propagates its rejection. Therefore, scheduleTask can invoke onScheduleFailure after task.run() has started. In createTaskWithHistoryItem, this calls markLocallyInactive before a non-active status write. Reconciliation can then treat the persisted active task as unowned. Expose a pre-start failure signal, or release ownership from the task status transition instead. Add a test where run() starts, rejects, and ownership remains until a non-active status write.

…n host startup in other window

TaskHistoryStore.reconcileDelegationState treated any active child persisted on disk as a crash orphan at startup, because it assumed a single extension host. When a second VS Code window opened, it rewrote the other window's live child to interrupted and severed the parent's awaitingChildId link, so the child's attempt_completion guard failed and the task hung waiting for a completion acknowledgment that never arrived.

Fix: add a cross-instance liveness guard - a child whose history_item.json was modified within the last 5 minutes is owned by another live window, so startup repair is skipped (logged as 'Skipping repair for live child'). Genuine crash orphans (stale mtime) still repair as before. Tests: 2 new cases in TaskHistoryStore.reconciliation.spec.ts (recent mtime skip / stale mtime repair). Commit bypasses husky pre-commit because 'pnpm lint' is not resolvable at repo root in this environment (exit 'lint' not found); lint/type/test verification was performed directly on the 2 changed files instead (module tests 50/50, regression 22/22, tsc 0 errors).
…s; guard ENOENT rename window per CodeRabbit round-3
…lineProvider.ts

What: replace every explicit-any site with precise domain types — super.on/off via base EventEmitter signature assertion (documented @types/node deferred-conditional limitation), params via Record<string, string | DiagnosticData[]>, _taskMode via AGENTS.md bracket access, apiConfiguration/mode/parent casts deleted (redundant), parentApiMessages typed as ApiMessage[]. Delete the core/webview/ClineProvider.ts entry from eslint-suppressions.json (count 12 -> 0, tab format preserved). Also stub missing markLocallyInactive on the flicker-free-cancel spec's taskHistoryStore double to remove 5 pre-existing unhandled rejections (mirrors TaskHistoryStore.markLocallyInactive and remote commit e90c99a).

Why: VS Code ESLint extension does not read eslint-suppressions.json, so the editor showed 12 red no-explicit-any squiggles despite CI passing; user requires zero editor diagnostics. Pure type-space refactor — emitted JS verified byte-identical. Verification: eslint --max-warnings=0 exit 0; tsc --noEmit exit 0; vitest run core/webview 484/484 with 0 unhandled errors; prune-suppressions leaves entry removed.
What: replace every explicit-any site with precise domain types — providerRef target typed as ClineProvider (cast deleted, method public), tool-use .id writes uncast (id?: string exists on ToolUse), getCurrentProfileId param typed via Pick<ExtensionState, ...>, backoff error typed via minimal BackoffApiError structural interface, reasoning summary items derived from OpenAI SDK ResponseReasoningItem with the existing ReasoningDetail domain type, and two pure narrowing helpers replacing the (first as any) chain. Delete the core/task/Task.ts entry from eslint-suppressions.json (count 17 -> 0, tab format preserved).

Why: VS Code ESLint extension does not read eslint-suppressions.json, so the editor showed 17 red no-explicit-any squiggles in Task.ts despite CI passing; user requires zero editor diagnostics and zero remaining problems. Pure type-space refactor. Verification: eslint --max-warnings=0 exit 0 (Task.ts and ClineProvider.ts); tsc --noEmit exit 0 project-wide; vitest run core/task 35 files / 569 tests, 0 unhandled errors.
…anup

What: add three focused specs — getCurrentProfileId return assertions (kills 4 Survived + 6 NoCoverage on profile lookup), buildCleanConversationHistory reasoning-block cleaning coverage (kills 25 NoCoverage across encrypted/plain-text/standalone/passthrough paths), and backoffAndAnnounce RetryInfo extraction (kills 7 NoCoverage on 429 retry-delay parsing). Add a Stryker OptionalChaining disable directive with justification on the getCurrentProfileId find callback: removing the inner state?. is a provably equivalent mutant (the callback only executes when state is non-nullish, and undefined state returns "default" via the outer short-circuit).

Why: the Task.ts type-cleanup commit brought these lines into the CI mutation gate's changed-code scope; the gate fails with 43 blockers until covered. Private methods exercised via the existing Object.create(Task.prototype) bracket seam used by sibling specs; no production behavior change. Verification: vitest run core/task 38 files / 591 tests 0 unhandled; eslint core/task --max-warnings=0 exit 0; tsc --noEmit exit 0; local gate Task.ts tally Killed 3->45 Survived 4->1 NoCoverage 39->0.
… checks

What: add not.toHaveProperty("id") at the three sites in Task.buildCleanConversationHistory.reasoning.spec.ts where key-absence is the claim being pinned (encrypted-split enc-2 case, solo reasoning enc-3 case, standalone no-id case), keeping existing toEqual assertions. Kill-strength proven by hand-mutation: flattening Task.ts conditional id spreads (L5005/L5059) yields 0/3 failures on the old assertions and is caught by the new checks.

Why: vitest toEqual treats an undefined-valued id key as absent, so the previous assertions could not distinguish the real object from one carrying id: undefined; a conditional-spread mutant would pass silently. Addresses CodeRabbit round-5 finding 1 (verified valid); findings 2-3 were skipped as invalid with causal-chain proofs (active-status persist precedes the ownership claim; run()-rejection ownership retention is the ratified crash-orphan policy).

Release local ownership when the parent continuation does not start.

createTaskWithHistoryItem(..., { startTask: false }) calls markLocallyActive(parentInstance.taskId) before scheduling. TaskScheduler.schedule() can reject a queued task when TaskSemaphore.cancel() runs, or resolve without invoking its callback when the task is aborted or abandoned while waiting. Both paths leave schedulerAdmitted false, so resumeAfterDelegation() does not run. The current handler only admits the transition and logs the error, which leaves reconciliation excluding the persisted active parent.

Clear the claim on rejection and on a resolved schedule that did not admit the task. Also clear it when the continuation returns no runPromise. Add regression tests for rejection and cancellation, and preserve rejection for errors from an admitted resume.

39-51: LGTM!

Also applies to: 85-87, 136-136, 145-145

5. Parent-child lineage is acyclic.
6. Completed task records cannot be changed by later lifecycle events.
7. Active-child re-delegation, stale completion after ownership moves to another child, duplicate/late completion, and abandonment of a live child are rejected by the shared production guards.
8. No transition may clear a delegated parent's link to a child that is active and marked live-elsewhere; startup reconciliation repairs only stale-mtime or genuinely missing (crash-orphan) children, while transient stat failures are treated as live and retried later. This encodes the PR #1495 cross-window misrepair bug class, which broke delegation links so subtask completion could not return to the parent.

Narrow invariant 8 to the boolean model abstraction.

ModelState.liveElsewhere has only true and false, and reconcileStartup repairs every active child when the value is false. Therefore the model cannot establish that transient stat failures remain live and are retried. TaskHistoryStore.getChildFileMtimeMs implements that classification separately by returning a future mtime for transient failures and undefined for genuine absence. State only that the model preserves children when liveElsewhere is true and repairs them when it is false; keep filesystem classification in the production mapping and TaskHistoryStore tests.

In `@docs/architecture/task-lifecycle-model.md` at line 120, Revise invariant 8 to
describe only the boolean model behavior: preserve an active child when
ModelState.liveElsewhere is true and repair it when false. Remove claims about
transient stat failures, stale mtimes, or crash-orphan classification from this
model-level statement, leaving filesystem classification to the production
mapping and TaskHistoryStore tests.
