 # Changelog

+## Unreleased
+
+- New `/agent [filter]` OpenCode-style chat inspector: a full TUI panel shows the
+  agent tree on the left and the selected agent's live chat transcript on the
+  right (`↑↓` select, `enter`/`tab` open chat, `t` toggle thinking, `o` open the
+  full session, `esc` close). Transcripts are parsed from the agent session
+  JSONL (user/assistant/tool-call/tool-result/thinking blocks) and refresh every
+  1.5s while an agent is streaming; the tree shows status glyphs, elapsed time,
+  and per-agent tasks. Select `o` to open the full session, with `/back`
+  returning to the main session.
+
+- New `/agent [filter]` command opens a subagent's full chat session in the TUI
+  (OpenCode-style `Subagent Actions → Open`): a selector lists the run's agents
+  with status glyphs, elapsed time, and task; picking one switches the session
+  to the agent's own conversation so it can be read (and continued once idle)
+  in the normal pi view. `/back` returns to the main session. The run is
+  re-linked automatically: an agent chat session carries no RUN_ENTRY, so the
+  run id is derived from the session file path
+  (`<stateDir>/runs/<runId>/sessions/…`) and the run is restored instead of a
+  new one being created; the main session file is recorded in the run manifest
+  so `/back` works even after a reload while viewing an agent chat.
+- The live widget is re-attached safely on every session switch (timer guard).
+
+- Fixed the research loop and agent tree getting permanently stuck after
+  `research_control stop`: `start` now restarts a stopped/completed run in the
+  same session (`AgentTree.restart` revives the run, archives old branches, and
+  resets the root), `ResearchLoop.start` resets iteration counters, and goal
+  changes are allowed after stop/completion.
+- Cancelled/failed/archived children no longer count toward the per-agent child
+  limit, and archived agents are ignored by the duplicate-task guard.
+- `cancel()` no longer overwrites an already recorded agent result.
+- Added a per-agent execution timeout (`agent_timeout_seconds`, default 1800)
+  so a hung agent session fails instead of blocking `wait` forever.
+- Full-text search now prefix-matches tokens (tolerates Russian/English
+  inflections without stemming) and safely handles punctuation and FTS5
+  metacharacters instead of throwing or returning false negatives.
+- Hardened the web gateway against SSRF TOCTOU: outbound downloads now resolve
+  DNS once, validate the address, and connect to the validated IP directly
+  (pinned resolution), so DNS rebinding cannot redirect the connection to a
+  private target; malformed search results no longer break the whole query;
+  the web cache is bounded (oldest entries evicted past 500 files).
+- Experiment review is now truly independent: the reviewer must not be a
+  descendant of the experiment author (in addition to not being the author).
+- Experiment stdout/stderr are capped at 512 KB so runaway container output
+  cannot exhaust memory or disk.
+- Verified that Pi's extension tool registry is per-extension-instance, so
+  reload re-registration is safe (no fix required).
+- `research_control pause`/`resume` no longer desync the agent tree from the
+  loop: pausing a non-running loop now errors instead of silently marking the
+  tree as paused, and resume requires the loop to actually be paused.
+- `read_artifact` now resolves symlinks before the confinement check, so a
+  symlink inside the project cannot leak files from outside it.
+- The live widget above the editor shows the research run id, loop status,
+  iteration, active agents with elapsed time, and recently finished agents
+  (updated every 1.5 s, hidden when idle).
+- Subagents no longer stall the main chat on serial model backends: new
+  `agent_concurrency` (default 3) caps how many subagent sessions stream at
+  once, and optional `subagent_model` routes subagents to a different
+  model/backend (e.g. a local Ollama model) so they never contend with the
+  main session.

Emil	029ce743bb	feat: /agent opens a subagent's full chat (OpenCode-style), /back returns - /agent [filter] lists the run's agents (glyphs, elapsed, task) via the native selector and switchSession()es to the agent's own session file - run is restored in the agent session by deriving the run id from the session file path (<stateDir>/runs/<runId>/sessions/...) - main session file recorded in the run manifest so /back works even after a reload while viewing an agent chat - widget re-attach timer guard on session switch	2026-08-01 00:18:47 +03:00

Emil	8f308ecea3	Revert "style: OpenCode Todo-style right agent panel (bg fill, checklist, pinned footer)" This reverts commit `e0f08097ec`.	2026-08-01 00:01:09 +03:00
Emil	e0f08097ec	style: OpenCode Todo-style right agent panel (bg fill, checklist, pinned footer)	2026-07-31 23:58:56 +03:00
Emil	18dc4cbb16	feat: full-height right agent panel with per-agent last activity The /agents-panel now fills the whole right column (40% width, 100% height, top-right anchor). Under each running subagent it shows the agent's most recent activity read from the tail of its session file: the last tool call with its query (e.g. web_search: "...") or the last assistant text. Reads are cached by file size so the 1.5s refresh stays cheap.	2026-07-31 23:45:39 +03:00
Emil	7e4146acbc	feat: persistent right-side agent panel (OpenCode-style) via /agents-panel Adds a toggleable non-capturing overlay anchored top-right (36% width, max 85% height, hidden under 100 columns) that shows the live agent tree: statuses with icons and colors, elapsed time, auto-refreshed every 1.5s. Because it is non-capturing, typing in the editor keeps working while the panel is visible. The panel closes via the toggle or on supervisor shutdown. The interactive /agents overlay with keyboard navigation and details is unchanged.	2026-07-31 23:41:55 +03:00
Emil	460cef3d23	fix: anchor the /agents overlay to the top-right corner instead of center	2026-07-31 23:33:33 +03:00
Emil	d9bc32d909	feat: interactive agent tree overlay (/agents) Adds an overlay panel (ctx.ui.custom with overlay options) showing the full agent tree: tree glyphs, colored statuses and icons, live elapsed time, and keyboard navigation (up/down, enter toggles a detail pane with the agent's task and result, esc closes). The panel refreshes itself every 1.5s while open. Also fixes /research-pause and /research-resume to use the same loop-state guards as research_control (previously they could desync the tree from the loop). The live widget header now hints at /agents.	2026-07-31 23:31:18 +03:00
Emil	5ea92990eb	feat: keep the main chat responsive while subagents run The main session and subagents share the same model backend; when that backend serializes requests (cloud rate limits or a local server), subagent streams queue the main chat. Adds two config knobs: - agent_concurrency (default 3): a semaphore in AgentTree.start caps how many subagent sessions stream simultaneously (slot is released on completion, timeout, or setup error so failures cannot deadlock the queue). - subagent_model (optional): routes spawned agents to a different model or backend, e.g. ollama/gemma4:e4b, so subagents never contend with the main session at all. Wired through the spawn tool, the main-session tools, and the per-agent runtime tools. Documents both in .hypothesis-machine.example.yaml and adds a concurrency-cap test (43 tests passing, tsc clean).	2026-07-31 23:25:52 +03:00
Emil	dd8d29bc8a	feat: live subagent dashboard widget in the TUI Adds a widget above the editor (ctx.ui.setWidget) showing the research run id, loop status, iteration, active agents with elapsed time, and recently finished agents. Refreshed every 1.5s while work is running, hidden when idle; timer is cleaned up on shutdown so reloads do not leak intervals.	2026-07-31 23:12:38 +03:00
Emil	b53687c2b9	fix: keep pause/resume in sync between loop and tree; close read_artifact symlink escape - research_control pause/resume now validate the loop state before touching the tree, so pausing a stopped loop can no longer leave the tree 'paused' while the loop is not (spawn would fail until a restart). - read_artifact confinement resolves symlinks (realpath) before checking the project boundary, preventing symlink-based file leaks. - Adds confinement tests (42 tests passing, tsc clean).	2026-07-31 23:09:20 +03:00
Emil	4039f7c8f3	fix: pin DNS resolution against SSRF rebinding; enforce reviewer independence; bound caches and logs - web.ts: outbound downloads resolve DNS once, validate the address, and connect to the validated IP directly, closing the DNS-rebinding TOCTOU window; malformed SearXNG result URLs are skipped instead of failing the whole search; web cache is bounded (evicts oldest past 500 entries). - experiment.ts: reviewer must not be a descendant of the experiment author (tool-level lineage check on top of the author-id check); stdout/stderr buffers capped at 512 KB. - Confirmed Pi's extension tool registry is per-extension-instance, so reload re-registration is safe; no change needed there. - Adds a lineage-independence test (39 tests passing, tsc clean).	2026-07-31 23:03:49 +03:00
Emil	18b8a3247d	fix: allow research runs to restart after stop; improve FTS search, agent limits, and timeouts - AgentTree.restart() revives a stopped run in the same session: resets the root, archives old branches, and restores spawnability (stop no longer cancels the root). - ResearchLoop.start() restarts from stopped/completed and resets iteration counters; setGoal is allowed in terminal states; supervisor 'start' revives the tree when the root is not spawnable. - Cancelled/failed/archived children no longer count toward the per-agent child limit and archived agents are ignored by the duplicate-task guard. - cancel() no longer overwrites an already recorded agent result. - Add agent_timeout_seconds (default 1800) so hung agent sessions fail instead of blocking wait() forever. - FTS search now prefix-matches tokens (tolerates inflections) and safely handles punctuation/FTS5 metacharacters instead of returning false negatives or throwing. - Add tests for restart semantics, child limits, result preservation, agent timeouts, and FTS morphology/special characters (38/38 passing).	2026-07-31 22:57:54 +03:00
