Closes #1714

Description

Fixes the repeated child creation/rollback cycle when an interrupted task retains a pending new_task and subtask auto-approval is enabled.

  • Allow an approved delegation to transition directly from interrupted to delegated. Arbitrary message saves still cannot reactivate interrupted tasks.
  • Preserve the delegating task's own parent link only if that parent still awaits it. Clear stale lineage after startup recovery or replacement by another child, without stealing a newer handoff.
  • On delegation metadata failure, persist a matching error tool_result before restoring the parent. Existing history-resume reconciliation then clears the pending action instead of replaying it. Do not duplicate an existing result or resolve a replacement action.
  • If recovery history cannot be read or written, stop restoration and surface an error instead of scheduling another attempt.

No new settings, retry counters, migrations, or changesets. This addresses the reliability regression without changing global auto-approval settings.

Test Procedure

Passed locally in a Linux orb (Node 26.8.2, pnpm 10.8.1; the repository declares Node 22.23.1):

  • pnpm lifecycle:model-check — all seven checks passed; delegation model covers 61 states, 5/5 actions, and 3/3 landmarks, including interrupted-task delegation.
  • Focused Vitest lifecycle/persistence/delegation suites — 14 files, 283 tests passed.
  • pnpm test — 13/13 tasks successful; extension tests: 8,893 passed / 39 skipped; webview tests: 1,863 passed.
  • TEST_FILE=subtasks.test.js TEST_GREP='interrupted child replays pending' xvfb-run -a pnpm --filter @roo-code/vscode-e2e test:ci:mock — 1 passing. The real extension host interrupts a child at its nested delegation approval, enables subtask auto-approval, rehydrates it, and verifies exactly one grandchild starts with the pending action cleared and parent ownership retained.
  • pnpm lint and pnpm check-types — 11/11 tasks successful each, via the repository Git hooks.
  • Formatting and git diff --check passed. ESLint suppression counts did not increase; one existing suppression was removed.

Regression coverage also checks failed recovery reads/writes, already-resolved actions, and detached/replaced parent ownership. The extension-host smoke covers close/reopen rehydration, not a full VS Code process restart.

Pre-Submission Checklist

Additional Notes

Implemented with Amp assistance. This PR does not attempt to fix the separately reported, unverified cache-loss claim or clean up previously accumulated task files.

Allow approved delegation from interrupted tasks while preserving only current parent ownership. Persist a failed tool result before rollback restores a pending delegation, and stop restoration if recovery persistence fails.

Add lifecycle model, provider rollback, history resume, and extension-host regression coverage for Zoo-Code-Org#1714.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved recovery when interrupted subtasks resume, including delegation to new child tasks without taking over another child’s pending handoff or task lineage.
    • Improved failed-delegation recovery so recorded errors prevent pending actions from being replayed automatically.
    • Preserved cached task history when records are malformed or unreadable.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for interrupted-task recovery, pending action replay, task lineage, and delegation failures.
  • Documentation

    • Documented interrupted-task resumption and delegation behavior.

Walkthrough

Interrupted tasks can resume delegation. The change preserves valid task lineage, clears stale lineage, and persists failed pending-action results before restoration. Task-history errors propagate, and tests cover lifecycle behavior, rollback, reconciliation, and end-to-end replay.

Changes

Interrupted delegation recovery

Layer / File(s) Summary
Interrupted delegation lifecycle
src/core/task-persistence/taskLifecycle.ts, src/core/task-persistence/__tests__/taskLifecycle.spec.ts
Interrupted tasks can transition to delegated. Delegation clears parent and root lineage when the owning parent no longer awaits the task.
Provider rollback and history persistence
src/core/webview/ClineProvider.ts, src/core/task-persistence/TaskHistoryStore.ts, src/core/task-persistence/__tests__/TaskHistoryStore.spec.ts, src/__tests__/ClineProvider.delegation.spec.ts, src/eslint-suppressions.json
Delegation passes owning-parent history to the lifecycle function. Rollback persists an error tool_result before restoring the parent. History reads rethrow malformed records and non-missing-file errors; invalidation preserves cached records on errors. Tests cover delegation and rollback failures.
Pending-action reconciliation and lifecycle model
src/core/task/__tests__/Task.persistence.spec.ts, scripts/check-task-lifecycle.ts, docs/architecture/task-lifecycle-model.md
Durable error results clear pending actions without replay. The model checker covers resumed delegation and detached lineage. Documentation describes these paths.
Pending replay end-to-end coverage
apps/vscode-e2e/src/fixtures/subtasks.ts, apps/vscode-e2e/src/suite/subtasks.test.ts
Fixtures and an end-to-end test cover interrupted create_subtask replay with auto-approval and exactly one grandchild delegation.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Recovery can produce invalid conversation history when a pending delegation has no matching tool use. Guard that case before merging; the remaining test assertion gap is localized.

Full details: Regression Evidence

Explanation

The rollback coverage misses a changed negative branch. ClineProvider.delegateParentAndOpenChildUnlocked now handles a pending action with no matching assistant tool_use by appending an error tool_result at the end of API history (toolUseIndex === -1, lines 4112–4134). The new rollback tests cover matching tool-use history, an existing result, read failure, and write failure, but every persistence case seeds failed-action as an assistant tool_use. The existing no-tool-use test covers reopenParentFromDelegation, not this rollback path. This leaves a plausible truncated-history recovery case without focused coverage.

Resolution

Add a focused ClineProvider.delegateParentAndOpenChild() rollback test with a matching pending action and API history that has no assistant tool_use for its action. Assert that saveApiMessages appends exactly one user tool_result with is_error: true, then assert that parent restoration proceeds. If the string-content branch remains supported, add a case with a following user message whose content is a string.

Full details: Security Boundaries

Explanation

The changed path trusts persisted lineage input as a filesystem path. In ClineProvider.delegateParentAndOpenChildUnlocked, the new line 3899 passes authoritativeParent.parentTaskId directly to TaskHistoryStore.invalidate(). invalidate() calls getTaskFilePath(), which builds path.join(tasksDir, taskId, "history_item.json") without task-ID validation. A crafted or corrupted interrupted task record with parentTaskId: "../../outside" can therefore make the extension read outside its task directory during pending-action resume.

Resolution

Validate parentTaskId before calling invalidate() and before any task-ID-based path construction. Reject IDs containing path separators, . or .., and other unsafe forms. Treat invalid lineage as stale and clear it instead of accessing the derived path. Add a regression test that sets an interrupted task's persisted parentTaskId to a traversal value and verifies that no outside path is read.

- Line 3885: Make the owning-parent refresh before delegation strict: update
TaskHistoryStore.readTaskFile() to return a missing result only for ENOENT and
propagate other read or parse failures, rather than converting them to null and
allowing invalidate() to remove the cache entry. Ensure delegateTaskToChild() is
not reached after a failed owner read, and clear parentTaskId/rootTaskId only
after a successful read confirms the parent no longer awaits the interrupted
task.
- Around line 4096-4110: Update the failed new_task result handling in
ClineProvider so it is inserted into the existing immediate user message before
its first non-tool content block, preserving tool-result-before-text ordering
after consecutive user-message merging. Add a regression test covering an
earlier tool result and text block preceding the failed new_task result.

Reject history records with a non-string or mismatched ID.

readTaskFile("owner") accepts a truthy numeric ID or an ID for another task. invalidate("owner") then caches that record under "owner". Delegation recovery can inspect the record’s status and lineage as if it belonged to "owner", and re-delegation can fail after creating the child. The later atomic update guard prevents the mismatched record from being persisted as "owner", but it does not prevent the earlier incorrect reads.

Require a string ID that equals taskId. Add regression cases for a non-string ID and a mismatched ID.

Proposed fix
-			const item: HistoryItem = JSON.parse(raw)
-			if (!item?.id) throw new Error(`Invalid task history record: ${filePath}`)
-			return item
+			const parsed: unknown = JSON.parse(raw)
+			if (
+				!parsed ||
+				typeof parsed !== "object" ||
+				typeof (parsed as { id?: unknown }).id !== "string" ||
+				(parsed as { id: string }).id !== taskId
+			) {
+				throw new Error(`Invalid task history record: ${filePath}`)
+			}
+			return parsed as HistoryItem

readTaskFile accepted any truthy id, so a history_item.json holding a
non-string id or another task's id (e.g. a copied task directory) could
replace the cached owner during invalidate(). Require a string id equal
to the requested taskId; invalid records now throw and keep the cache.

4120-4141: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration

The comment is refuted. mergeApiMessageSnapshots does not prefer the disk record by messageId. It matches records by timestamp and returns the incoming record unchanged. The edited user message therefore retains the inserted tool_result.

The newly inserted message also remains in the incoming array at the position created by messages.splice(...). Timestamp merging only inserts disk-only records around incoming records; it does not reorder the incoming records by timestamp. The proposed merge: false change and regression test are not required for this claim.

src/core/task-persistence/TaskHistoryStore.ts (2)

875-884: LGTM!


759-765: 🩺 Stability & Availability

The concern is refuted. Every non-test invalidate() call is awaited. Delegation errors propagate through resumeTaskFromHistory, whose constructor path attaches .catch(...); the tool path also calls handleError. The scheduler continuation has its own rejection handler. No void invalidate() call or unhandled rejection path exists.

Assert the expected error in each invalidation scenario.

rejects.toThrow() only proves that some error occurred. It does not prove that invalid records produce Invalid task history record or that the directory case preserves the EISDIR error.

The existing re-reads a task from disk test already covers a valid record replacing the cached record. A separate status-only refresh case does not exercise a new branch.

Suggested assertion change

-				await expect(store.invalidate("owner")).rejects.toThrow()

Reject rollback when no matching tool use exists.

When readApiMessages returns an empty array, toolUseIndex is -1, but the current fallback saves a standalone tool_result. Parent restoration then schedules history resume, which can pass that orphan block to the next API request. Native tool-call providers can reject the request because no preceding assistant tool_use owns the result.

Abort rollback before saving or restoring the parent when toolUseIndex === -1. This leaves the parent available for an explicit retry instead of persisting invalid API history.

Suggested fix
-						const nextMessage = toolUseIndex === -1 ? undefined : messages[toolUseIndex + 1]
+						if (toolUseIndex === -1) {
+							throw new Error(
+								`[delegateParentAndOpenChild] Cannot resolve pending action ${pendingActionId}: no matching tool_use exists`,
+							)
+						}
+						const nextMessage = messages[toolUseIndex + 1]
...
-							messages.splice(toolUseIndex === -1 ? messages.length : toolUseIndex + 1, 0, {
+							messages.splice(toolUseIndex + 1, 0, {
