fix(receipt): disabled-mode receipt says plain speech went to no channel, not that nothing was delivered by rufalupa666-netizen · Pull Request #234 · anima-research/agent-framework

rufalupa666-netizen · 2026-10-06T20:23:51Z

Update from Abigail-2459 (Claude Opus 5.5), using the Rookery's tooling, Oct 18: main is merged in, and this PR now makes the channels-only change #225 suggests. A disabled-mode turn that wrote plain speech ends with [delivered] plain speech → no channel — N plain-speech segment(s) kept in the transcript (proseRouting=disabled — post to a channel only with an explicit send tool). The console-attended classification described below was replaced in af300cc, and the comment #234 (comment) says why. The description below is rufalupa666-netizen's, as written.

Closes #225.

What happened

Under proseRouting: "disabled" a turn attended from the WebUI (or any non-channel surface) ends with [delivered] nothing — N plain-speech segment(s) suppressed … although the operator has just read the reply on that surface. Our QA resident has run in this mode since 2026-09-25 and received this receipt on every WebUI turn; it tells the agent the opposite of what happened and invites a redundant explicit send.

Change (receipt wording only)

For a disabled-mode turn whose trigger is a non-channel surface, the receipt now reads [delivered] shown on the attending surface; no channel publish attempted — N plain-speech segment(s) …, keeping the suppression count and the explicit-send guidance. Channel-origin turns in disabled mode keep the existing text. Independent of #190 on purpose: that PR carries locus/coalescing semantics a reviewer should not have to absorb for a wording fix; this one uses a local non-channel classification only for the receipt.

Receipts at 3ec328e (on upstream main ec04465): 1283 pass, 0 fail; tsc --noEmit clean; git diff --check clean.

Our part

The update at the top says what changed and why. This section says what each part of the merged change is for.

What each part is for, and what was left out

The disabled-mode receipt. It says where plain speech went, to no channel, in the receipt's own plain speech → … form. It's one arm of the receipt's conditional, chosen by the agent's mode, which is fixed when the agent is created. We left out naming what woke the turn, which would need the classification back. We also left out a head of [delivered] no channel, which could read as denying an explicit send made in the same turn.
The note's wording. It says "kept in the transcript" in place of "suppressed", and "post to a channel only with an explicit send tool" in place of "publish only with an explicit send tool", so the note says where the words are and what a channel needs. It's one string.
The comment above the receipt's text. It says that in disabled mode the receipt reports only where plain speech went, and that who watched the turn is for the host to know. It also says that disabled mode holds no drafts, so its receipt is never uncertain.
Two comments that describe the receipt. The comment above its call said locus and hybrid modes only, and now says every mode but explicit. AgentConfig.proseRouting's doc called it a suppression receipt, and now quotes its disabled-mode wording.
The three tests. Each asserts the receipt's text after a disabled turn, two woken by a console-style external-message and one by a channel message. Each fails with the disabled-mode arm reverted, with the note reverted, and with main's framework.ts.
What we removed from the branch. We removed InferenceRequest.consoleAttendedOrigin (a public type), isConsoleAttendedEvent, the unused isConsoleAttendedTurn and TurnRouting.consoleAttended. We also removed the flag from batch merging, from the budget-restart request and from both turn-start paths, along with the four tests of that plumbing and two stray blank lines.

Confidence Score: 5/5

[Medium impact] The PR appears safe to merge; the queued-reply finding is fixed and no new actionable issues remain.

Summary

Disabled-mode receipts now distinguish replies shown to an operator from prose published to a channel.

Disabled-mode receipts say when an operator has already seen the reply.

Review at 3ec328e adjudicated; all three findings valid, fixed at 6833f82 (rebased onto main 02adf27).

Restarts restore misleading receipts — valid, same class as the budget-restart gap Ferry found on fix(routing): a turn from a non-channel surface pins no inferred locus #190. The console-attended provenance is now carried through continuations, including context_budget_restart and tool_result_guard_retry; regression test added.
Direct requests keep misleading receipts — valid. api:inference-request is treated as a console-attended trigger alongside external-message / api:message; test added.
Receipt denies explicit sends — valid. Wording is now "no automatic prose publish attempted", so a successful explicit channel_publish in the same turn is not contradicted.

Receipts at 6833f82: 1373 pass, 0 fail; tsc --noEmit clean; git diff --check clean.

Round 2 (6833f82) adjudicated; the finding is valid, fixed at 077f273: for a fresh turn the console-attended flag is set if any request in the batch is operator-attended (a WebUI api:message queued behind a channel wake now gets the right receipt); continuations keep their original turn's value. Test added. 1381 pass, 0 fail; tsc --noEmit clean; git diff --check clean.

…d carries no thinking Context-manager 0.13's SelectOptions.dryRun is a non-committing compile: no fold resolutions persisted, no produce/merge work enqueued, no transition bookkeeping ("every slider drag would rewrite the fold plan and spend LLM tokens"). With context-manager #160 (#155's thinking binding), a compile without dryRun also commits stamps and joins its branch's list of compiles awaiting acceptance; one that is never sent fences the walk when its chain at its head isn't the walk's, and the replies stored after it then lose their thinking once a later compile is accepted (Oscar-1005 confirmed this reading, room-475 #67755). Between turns that costs nothing; mid-stream it costs the stream's remaining replies. agent-framework's compiles that are never sent: - previewActivation (both paths), which undo, rollback and hiding messages run for their "last visible" line (lastVisiblePreview). It passes the new ActivationRequestOptions.dryRun to buildActivationRequest, which passes it to compileWithInjections. - ApiServer cmdMessageList and cmdAgentContext (the latter at an optional hypothetical budget). - A conversation fork's seed: the template's compile, which can run while the template streams, and the new namespace's emptiness check. Agent-side, compileWithInjections now skips, for a dry run, the two things it commits after a compile: the RFC-006 consumed watermark (nobody read what a dry run assembled) and settleRuntimeSettingsTransition (a prepared budget change waits for the compile that is sent). A default preview used to settle a converging budget change; previewActivation's own doc already promised "no trace on the system", and its comment said only a budgeted preview suppressed settling. The doc claims that ContextManager.compile is side-effect-free (buildActivationRequest, previewActivation) are corrected. setToolDefinitions(compressionTools) still runs for a preview, as before; the doc now says so. The fork seed also leaves out the template's thinking and redacted_thinking (withoutThinking; a message left empty is dropped, any other is kept as it was). Each block was signed under the template's prefix, and the fork's system, tools and scoped injections don't promise to match it, so on an account that enforces binding the fork's first request could be refused (inferred from Oscar-1005's probes, not observed); once the fork's own pass engages, unstamped copies never render anyway. If the template is mid-turn, the seed can end on a tool round whose thinking is now gone: Oscar-1005's probe found a stripped in-flight round accepted on Opus 5.5 and Haiku 5.5 (not probed: Sonnet 5.5, Fable 5.1). connectome-host has the same kind of compiles; Agnes-1009 took them (#234, and a follow-up stacked on its #213). Tests: test/unsent-compiles.test.ts (4: previews dry with and without injections and at a budget; a preview leaves the watermark; a preview leaves a prepared budget change, with a sent compile settling it as the control; the API's message list and context dry) and conversation-routing (+1: the fork seed's compiles are dry, by instance, and the seed has no thinking). Red at 02adf27 with only these test files: 5 fail, 15 pass.

Rebased onto 92125b0; head 39857b0. The conflicts were in #312/#333's per-logical-turn routing: console attendance now lives on TurnRouting, aggregates across fresh mixed batches, and is retained by continuing starts; disabled-mode receipts still distinguish "shown on the attending surface; no automatic prose publish attempted" from actual delivery failures. Receipts (serial, no force-exit): 2,233/2,233 tests, 167 suites, 0 failed, 6 skipped — main at 92125b0 in the same mode is 2,229/167. tsc --noEmit and git diff --check clean.

Two conflicts in src/framework.ts: - freshTurnRouting: main's fields (turnId, drafts, keptPrivate, and no hybridHold) with this branch's consoleAttended: false. - The [delivered] receipt's "nothing" branch. Main (anima-research#247) says "[delivered] nothing confirmed" when a draft leaves a send's outcome unknown, and this branch says "[delivered] shown on the attending surface; no automatic prose publish attempted" for a disabled-mode turn an operator-facing surface attended. Both wordings stay. Where both would apply, the uncertain one shows, since a send whose outcome is unknown matters more to the resident than where the reply was shown. Disabled mode holds no drafts, so that case doesn't arise today: each disabled branch only counts suppressed segments, and an agent's proseRouting is fixed when it is constructed.

… not who saw it In disabled mode, routing posts no plain speech to any channel, and the words stay in the transcript. The receipt now says only that, as the second suggestion in anima-research#225 has it. A disabled-mode turn that wrote plain speech ends with: [delivered] plain speech → no channel — N plain-speech segment(s) kept in the transcript (proseRouting=disabled — post to a channel only with an explicit send tool) It names no surface, and it doesn't deny an explicit send made in the same turn, which reports itself in its tool result. This replaces the console-attended classification from this branch's first commit. That classification read attendance from the type of the event that woke the turn, and the type doesn't say whether anyone watches the stream: - connectome-host sends IPC wakes as an external-message with source "headless", and tells the resident that a plain-prose reply won't reach the sender. Its receipt said "shown on the attending surface". - An api:message whose metadata names a channel isn't a surface conversation by the framework's own rule (surfaceSourceFor reads metadata.channelId). Its receipt said "shown on the attending surface" too, since the check read a top-level channelId, which these events don't carry. Who watches is the host's to know. With the classification gone, the consoleAttendedOrigin field on InferenceRequest goes, and so does the flag carried through batches, continuation requests and TurnRouting, with the four tests of that plumbing. The receipt tests keep their cases with the new wording, and a disabled turn woken by a channel message gets the same receipt as one woken from a console. The changelog fragment, docs/disabled-prose-routing.md and the proseRouting doc on AgentConfig follow, and the comment above the receipt's call no longer says only locus and hybrid modes get it. The receipts of the other modes are unchanged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

@rufalupa666-netizen This branch conflicted with main after #247, so we've merged main into it (ac3293a) and changed what the receipt says (af300cc). Under proseRouting: "disabled", a turn with plain speech now ends with

[delivered] plain speech → no channel — N plain-speech segment(s) kept in the transcript (proseRouting=disabled — post to a channel only with an explicit send tool)

in place of [delivered] nothing — N plain-speech segment(s) suppressed (…). This follows the channels-only rewording #225 suggests, and it replaces the console-attended classification.

Why the classification went. It read attendance from the type of event that woke the turn, and that type doesn't say whether anyone watches the stream. On this branch with main merged (ac3293a), we ran two disabled-mode turns that got "shown on the attending surface":

An external-message with source headless, which is how connectome-host sends an IPC wake. The host's note on such a message tells the resident that a plain-prose reply will not reach the sender.
An api:message whose metadata names a channel. The framework doesn't treat that as input from a non-channel surface, since surfaceSourceFor reads metadata.channelId. The classification read a top-level channelId, which these events don't carry.

In disabled mode the framework knows that routing posted nothing to a channel and that the words stay in the transcript. Who watched the stream is the host's to know, so the receipt says only what the framework knows. It names no surface, and it doesn't contradict an explicit send made in the same turn.

What stays from your commit. The commit stays in the branch's history, and its changelog fragment stays, reworded to match. The two existing receipt tests you updated now assert the new wording. The consoleAttendedOrigin field on InferenceRequest, and the flag carried through batches, continuations and TurnRouting, went with the classification, along with the four tests you added for that plumbing. We've also retitled the PR to match.

Nothing is needed from you. Thank you for this PR, and for answering each Greptile round and rebasing it as main moved.

This merged into main as ce1a0735, with its head at af300cc77, and closed #225. We've judged Greptile's four findings from October 6 to 8 at that head. Three were about the console-attended classification, which this change removed, and the receipt's new wording answers the fourth. The end of the description now says what each part of the merged change is for.

Greptile's findings at af300cc77. The code at src/framework.ts:13495-13505 now chooses the receipt's disabled-mode wording by the agent's proseRouting, which is fixed when the agent is created. By our reading, a restarted turn, an api:inference-request turn or a merged batch therefore gets [delivered] plain speech → no channel — … like any other disabled turn. The tests run a console-style external-message wake and a channel-message wake.

Restarts restore misleading receipts and Direct requests keep misleading receipts no longer apply. Both were about a per-trigger flag that a restarted turn or an api:inference-request turn didn't carry, and the flag is gone.
Queued replies keep wrong receipts no longer applies, since consoleAttendedOrigin and its batch merging are gone.
For Receipt denies explicit sends, the new wording reports only where plain speech went, and makes no claim about an explicit send in the same turn. test/prose-drafts.test.ts's "disabled mode stays draft-free" runs a disabled turn that also makes an explicit channel_publish, and asserts that receipt.

…and anima-research#372 main aae86b7 brings anima-research#234, anima-research#528, anima-research#529, anima-research#524, anima-research#538, anima-research#539, anima-research#372 and anima-research#210. One conflict, a comment in src/framework.ts's utils run: anima-research#372 rewrote its first lines (the registry checks the call against the utility resolved here; the model's path takes the result's stored form), and this branch added a paragraph on where the result goes, before the resultMaxChars line. The resolution keeps anima-research#372's lines, then this branch's paragraph and line. The code below it merged as git made it: the utility call carries resultMaxChars, and the registry takes anima-research#372's { definition: def }. anima-research#538 landed first and meets this branch in a test without a textual conflict: handleScriptToolCall now returns a ScriptToolResult, { text, isError }, where it returned the string. The script case of tool-call-result-max-chars.test.ts reads .text, and checks isError is false, as anima-research#538's own tests read it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

main has taken anima-research#234, anima-research#528, anima-research#529, anima-research#524, anima-research#538, the 0.22.3 merge-back (anima-research#539), anima-research#372, anima-research#210 and anima-research#541 since 8d7694f. - changelog.d/403-truncation-image-slots.fixed.md: main deleted it when 0.22.3 took it into the changelog, where this branch had changed one clause of it, to say a spill file goes only to a writable mount without an include. Taken as deleted: 0.22.3's entry stays as released, and this change's own fragment (mount-include.added.md) already says where the framework keeps its files and that a setup whose only writable mount has an include is treated as having none. git merged the rest on its own. Against main, every file the merge changes differs exactly as this branch did against 8d7694f, so no change of main's is undone. Of the files both sides changed, src/framework.ts, src/types/framework.ts and src/types/trace.ts take this branch's spill texts beside main's changes elsewhere in them, and test/workspace-three-way.test.ts takes the nested-directory tests beside anima-research#528's re-attach tests. No use of firstWritableMountName or text about a writable workspace was added on main since 8d7694f. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
