fix(cmd): nil-guard CLI when emitting system-prompt notice in quiet mode

SetupCLIForNonInteractive returns nil when --quiet is active, matching the pre-existing nil checks elsewhere in the same block (e.g. the buffered debug-message branch). Without this guard the new 'System Prompt loaded' notice panicked on quiet, non-interactive runs. Discovered via tmux smoke test of the #25 fix.

+description: Read-only audit for dead code, duplication, boundary violations, and refactor opportunities
+---
+
+Perform a comprehensive **read-only** audit of this repository and report
+findings. **Do not edit, rename, or delete any files.** Optional focus / scope
+hints from the user: $@
+
+## Scope
+
+If the user supplied focus hints above (a package path, a subsystem name, a
+concern like "TUI" or "extensions"), scope the audit accordingly. Otherwise
+audit the whole repo, prioritising the highest-traffic packages first
+(`cmd/`, `internal/`, `pkg/kit/` for this repo).
+
+## Steps
+
+1. **Map the repo first**:
+   - `ls` / `find` the top-level layout and list every Go package
+   - Read `AGENTS.md`, `README.md`, and any `pkg/*/doc.go` to understand the
+     intended architectural boundaries (SDK vs internal vs TUI vs cmd vs
+     extension surface)
+   - Note the public SDK surface (`pkg/kit/`) and any documented invariants
+     (e.g. "no dependency name leakage", "UI never imports extensions
+     directly") — these define what counts as a violation
+
+2. **Hunt for dead code**:
+   - Run `go vet ./...` and capture warnings
+   - Use `grep` to find exported symbols (`^func [A-Z]`, `^type [A-Z]`,
+     `^var [A-Z]`, `^const [A-Z]`) and cross-reference call sites. Symbols
+     with zero non-test references inside the module are suspects
+   - Check for unreferenced files, `// TODO: remove` markers, commented-out
+     blocks, and `_ = x` discard patterns
+   - If `staticcheck`, `deadcode`, or `unused` are available on PATH, run
+     them and include their output verbatim
+   - **Do not delete anything** — list candidates with file:line and a
+     confidence level (high / medium / low)
+
+3. **Find unnecessary duplication**:
+   - Look for near-identical function bodies, struct shapes, or switch
+     statements across packages — `grep` for repeated function signatures
+     and copy-pasted string literals / error messages is a fast first pass
+   - Distinguish *coincidental* duplication (two things that happen to look
+     alike but evolve independently) from *unnecessary* duplication (same
+     intent, drifting in lockstep) — only flag the latter
+   - For each cluster, propose where the extracted helper should live
+     (which package, which file) and whether it crosses a boundary
+
+4. **Check concerns / boundary violations**:
+   - **SDK leakage**: grep `pkg/kit/` for imports of `internal/...` types
+     in exported signatures, and for dependency-name leakage in exported
+     names / godoc (e.g. library jargon appearing in `LLM*` types)
+   - **UI ↔ extensions**: grep `internal/ui/` for any import of
+     `internal/extensions/` — per AGENTS.md the UI must not import
+     extensions directly; converters in `cmd/root.go` should bridge them
+   - **cmd vs internal**: business logic living in `cmd/` that should be
+     in `internal/` (and vice versa)
+   - **Cyclic risk**: packages that import each other transitively or that
+     reach across sibling boundaries unexpectedly
+   - For each violation, cite the offending import / signature with
+     file:line
+
+5. **Spot refactor opportunities**:
+   - Long functions (>80 lines) doing multiple unrelated things
+   - Deeply nested conditionals that flatten well with early returns
+   - Repeated `if err != nil { return fmt.Errorf("...: %w", err) }` chains
+     that could become helpers — but only where the wrapping context is
+     genuinely uniform
+   - Structs with too many fields that hint at split responsibilities
+   - Exported APIs that would be cleaner with options structs / functional
+     options
+   - Tests that share setup boilerplate ripe for a helper
+   - Flag each with: location, current shape (1-2 lines), proposed shape
+     (1-2 lines), and estimated risk (low / medium / high)
+
+6. **Cross-check against project rules**:
+   - Re-read `AGENTS.md` "Key Patterns" section and verify nothing in your
+     findings contradicts the documented gotchas (Yaegi interface ban,
+     `prog.Send()` from `Update()`, function-field bug, etc.) — if a
+     "refactor" would reintroduce a known pitfall, drop it from the report
+     and note why
+
+7. **Write the report** as your final message (do not write it to disk)
+   structured as:
+
+   ```
+   # Code Audit Report
+
+   ## Summary
+   - N dead-code candidates
+   - N duplication clusters
+   - N boundary violations
+   - N refactor opportunities
+
+   ## Dead Code
+   ### High confidence

+   - Risk: low/medium/high
+   - Why it's worth it: …
+
+   ## Suggested Next Steps
+   1. …
+   2. …
+   ```
+
+8. **End the report with an explicit reminder** that no files were modified,
+   and recommend the user pick the highest-leverage items to act on
+   manually (or via a follow-up `/fix-issue` style prompt) rather than
+   running a sweeping refactor.
+
+## Guidelines
+
+- **Read-only, always**: no `edit`, no `write`, no `git commit`, no `go mod
+  tidy`. Use only `read`, `grep`, `find`, `ls`, and read-only `bash`
+  commands (`go vet`, `go build -o /tmp/...`, `staticcheck`, etc.)
+- **Cite every finding** with `path/to/file.go:LINE` so the user can jump
+  straight to it
+- **Be honest about confidence**: false positives in a code audit are
+  expensive — prefer "medium confidence, worth a look" over confidently
+  wrong claims
+- **Quantity isn't quality**: 10 sharp findings beat 100 nitpicks. Cut
+  anything that's purely stylistic unless it directly causes one of the
+  four issue categories above
+- **Skip generated code** (`*.pb.go`, `*_gen.go`, anything under
+  `vendor/`) and obvious third-party copies
+- **Don't propose architectural rewrites** — stay within the existing
+  shape of the repo and recommend incremental, reviewable changes

+description: Open a GitHub PR for the current branch using the repo's PR template
+---
+
+Open a GitHub pull request for the current branch, filling out the repository's PR template with a description grounded in the actual commits and diff.
+
+## Steps
+
+1. **Verify the branch is pushed**:
+   - `git status -sb` and `git log @{u}..HEAD --oneline 2>/dev/null` — if there is no upstream or unpushed commits, run `git push -u origin "$(git branch --show-current)"` first
+   - If the working tree is dirty, stop and tell the user to commit first (suggest `/commit-push`)
+2. **Gather context**:
+   - `git log origin/main..HEAD --oneline` — list of commits going into the PR
+   - `git diff origin/main...HEAD --stat` then `git diff origin/main...HEAD` — read the actual changes
+   - Identify the linked issue (from commit messages, branch name, or extra user input: $@) — capture as `Fixes #N` if applicable
+3. **Locate the PR template**:
+   - Check `.github/pull_request_template.md`, `.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md`, or `docs/pull_request_template.md`
+   - If none exists, use a minimal `## Description` / `## Type of Change` / `## Checklist` structure
+4. **Draft the PR body** by filling out the template:
+   - **Description**: 1–3 short paragraphs explaining *what* changed and *why*, grounded in the diff. Include a brief before/after example for new APIs when useful.
+   - **Fixes #N**: only if there is a real linked issue
+   - **Type of Change**: tick the single most accurate box with `[x]` (leave others as `[ ]`)
+   - **Checklist**: tick items that are genuinely true (style, self-review, tests added, docs updated)
+   - **Additional Information**: bullet list of added / modified files and any backward-compatibility notes
+   - Remove template sections explicitly marked "remove if not applicable" (e.g. MCP Spec Compliance) when they don't apply
+5. **Write the body to a temp file**: `/tmp/pr-body-<branch-or-issue>.md` — never inline a long body via `--body`, always use `--body-file`
+6. **Choose the title**: prefer the subject of the primary commit if it already follows Conventional Commits; otherwise craft one in the same style (`<type>(<scope>): <imperative summary>`, ≤72 chars)
+7. **Create the PR**:
+   ```
+   gh pr create \
+     --title "<title>" \
+     --body-file /tmp/pr-body-<...>.md \
+     --base main \
+     --head "$(git branch --show-current)"
+   ```
+   Use the repo's actual default branch if it isn't `main` (`gh repo view --json defaultBranchRef -q .defaultBranchRef.name`)
+8. **Report the PR URL** returned by `gh` and stop
+
+## Guidelines
+
+- Read the diff and commit messages — do **not** invent features that aren't in the code
+- One PR per logical change; if the branch contains unrelated commits, surface that and ask before continuing
+- Keep the description focused on reviewer-relevant information (what / why), not a replay of the diff
+- Only check checklist boxes that are actually satisfied; leave the rest unchecked rather than lying
+- If `gh` is not authenticated (`gh auth status` fails), stop and tell the user

+description: Implement the fix/feature/docs change requested by a GitHub issue
+---
+
+Resolve GitHub issue #$1 by reading it, classifying it, and producing the appropriate code or doc change. **Stop once the working tree contains the change** — committing, pushing, and opening a PR are handled by `/commit-push` and `/create-pr`.
+
+## Steps
+
+1. **Fetch the issue**:
+   - Run: gh issue view $1 --json number,title,body,labels,state,author,comments
+   - If the issue is closed, stop and ask the user whether to proceed
+   - Read the **entire** thread including comments — the latest comment often refines the ask
+
+2. **Classify the issue** from labels, title prefix, and body content:
+   - `bug` / `fix:` → reproduce, then fix
+   - `enhancement` / `feature` / `feat:` → design, then implement
+   - `documentation` / `docs:` → locate and update docs
+   - `question` / `discussion` → answer in a comment, do **not** write code
+   - Anything else → ask the user how to proceed
+
+3. **Create a working branch** off the default branch:
+   - `git checkout main && git pull --ff-only`
+   - Branch name: <type>/$1-<slug> (e.g. `fix/42-borderColor-ignored`, `feat/57-keyboard-clear`, `docs/63-widget-lifecycle`)
+
+4. **Do the work** based on type:
+
+   ### Bug (`bug` label / `fix:` title)
+   - Reproduce the failure first (write a failing test if feasible) — if you cannot reproduce, comment on the issue asking for clarification and stop
+   - Locate the root cause; do not patch symptoms
+   - Add or extend a regression test that fails before and passes after the fix
+   - Run `go test ./... -race` and `golangci-lint run`
+
+   ### Feature (`enhancement` / `feature` label / `feat:` title)
+   - Re-read the motivation and proposed implementation in the issue body
+   - For large, ambiguous, or breaking changes, sketch the design in a comment on the issue and wait for sign-off before writing code
+   - Implement behind sensible defaults; add godoc on every exported symbol
+   - Add unit tests covering the new behaviour and edge cases
+   - Update `README.md` / `docs/` if the public surface changed
+   - Run `go test ./... -race` and `golangci-lint run`
+
+   ### Documentation (`documentation` label / `docs:` title)
+   - Open the file/URL referenced in the issue's "Documentation Location"
+   - Apply the suggested improvement; verify code samples compile (`go build ./...`)
+   - No tests required, but run `golangci-lint run` if Go files were touched
+
+5. **Report**:
+   - Branch name (`git branch --show-current`)
+   - Summary of files changed (`git status -s`) and the diff highlights
+   - Test/lint results (pass/fail with key output)
+   - Suggest the next step explicitly:
+     - `/commit-push` to commit with a Conventional Commit subject (the message should reference `(#$1)` and include `Fixes #$1` so merge auto-closes)
+     - then `/create-pr $1` to open the pull request
+
+## Guidelines
+
+- This prompt **stops at a clean working tree with the change applied** — do not run `git commit`, `git push`, or `gh pr create`
+- If the issue is unclear, post a clarifying comment on the issue and stop; do not guess
+- Keep the change scoped to the issue; surface unrelated cleanups separately
+- For breaking changes or architecture shifts, propose the design on the issue first and wait for maintainer sign-off

+Body text of the prompt. Reference user-supplied arguments

 ```

 - **Filename** → slug: `commit-push.md` becomes `/commit-push`
 - **Frontmatter**: only `description` is recognised; keep it under ~80 chars
 - **Body**: plain markdown; the full text is submitted as the user's message when the template fires
- **Arguments**: `$+` expands to everything the user typed after the slash command name
-  (requires at least one argument); `$@` is the same but allows zero arguments;
-  `$1`, `$2` for individual positional args; omit entirely if no arguments are needed
+- **Required args**: kit infers required positional args from the highest `$N` it finds *outside* backtick/tilde code fences — a stray `$2` in active prose means kit will refuse to run without 2 arguments
+
+## Argument placeholders
+
+kit performs shell-style substitution before sending the prompt to the model:
+
+- `$1`, `$2`, … — positional arguments (1-indexed)
+- `${1}`, `${2}`, … — same, brace form (use when followed by digits/letters: `${1}_suffix`)
+- `$@` — all arguments joined by spaces (zero or more, optional)
+- `$+` — all arguments, **at least one required**
+- `$ARGUMENTS` / `${ARGUMENTS}` — alias for `$@`
+- `${@:N}` — args from the Nth onwards (1-indexed, bash-style)
+- `${@:N:L}` — `L` args starting from the Nth
+
+### ⚠️ Critical: code fences and inline code preserve placeholders verbatim
+
+Anything inside triple-backtick fences, `~~~` fences, or single-backtick `inline` code spans is **left untouched** so example code samples don't get corrupted. That means:
+
+- An inline-coded `gh issue view $1` stays literal `$1` in the model's input ❌
+- The same command without backticks: gh issue view $1 → expands to `gh issue view 42` ✓
+
+**Rule of thumb:** if you want a placeholder to substitute, keep it outside backticks and fences. If you want a literal `$1` in the output (e.g. teaching the user shell syntax), put it inside backticks.
+
+### Workarounds for "I want it to look like code AND substitute"
+
+1. **Drop the backticks** around just the placeholder portion — the rest can still read as a command line in prose
+2. **Use a 4-space-indented code block** instead of a triple-backtick fence — kit only skips backtick/tilde fences, so indentation-style code blocks still get substitution:
+
+       git push -u origin "$(git branch --show-current)"
+       gh pr create --title "fix: ... (#$1)" --base main
+
+3. **Bind once, reference loosely**: put `Issue: $1` at the top in prose, then leave the backticked examples literal — the model will substitute mentally

+description: Audit and update project documentation (README and docs site) for a recent change
+---
+
+Review recent code changes, identify all documentation surfaces that should
+mention them, and update each one — grounded in the actual diff, not guesses.
+
+## Steps
+
+1. **Identify the change**:
+   - If the user input ($@) names a commit / PR / branch / topic, use that as the focus
+   - Otherwise inspect `git log origin/main..HEAD --oneline` and `git diff origin/main...HEAD --stat` to discover what shipped on the current branch
+   - Read the actual diff (`git diff origin/main...HEAD`) — never document features that aren't in the code
+
+2. **Inventory the doc surfaces**:
+   - `README.md` at the repo root
+   - Any docs site (commonly `www/`, `docs/`, `site/`) — list its pages and identify the one(s) most thematically related to the change
+   - Inline godoc / API reference comments on the new exported symbols
+   - `CHANGELOG.md` if the project keeps one
+   - Any `examples/` directory entries that demonstrate the affected area
+
+3. **Audit each surface** with `grep`:
+   - Search for the names of related existing APIs (e.g. if you added `IterTools`, grep for `ListTools`) to find every page that already discusses the area
+   - Decide for each hit: does it need a cross-reference, a side-by-side comparison, or to stay untouched?
+
+4. **Decide where new content lives**:
+   - Prefer extending an existing page over creating a new one
+   - For a docs site, place new sections near related content (check the page's `## Heading` outline first)
+   - Skip surfaces that genuinely don't apply (e.g. a server-focused README for a client-only change) and say so explicitly
+
+5. **Draft the updates**:
+   - Lead with a one-sentence statement of what's new and why
+   - Show concrete code examples copied from real signatures — verify against the source files
+   - Include a comparison / "when to use which" table when adding an alternative to an existing API
+   - Note backwards-compatibility behaviour if relevant
+
+6. **Verify the docs build** before committing:
+   - For vocs / docusaurus / mkdocs sites, run the local build command (e.g. `npx vocs build`, `mkdocs build`) and fix any MDX/markdown errors
+   - For godoc, run `go vet ./...` and `go doc <pkg> <Symbol>` to sanity-check rendering
+
+7. **Report**:
+   - List every file changed and every file deliberately left alone (with a one-line reason)
+   - Suggest the next step (typically `/commit-push`) — do not auto-commit unless asked
+
+## Guidelines
+
+- Read the diff before writing anything — invented API names erode trust faster than missing docs
+- One change per doc commit; keep doc updates separate from code changes when possible
+- Match the existing voice and formatting of each surface (headings, code-fence languages, table styles)
+- Prefer linking between pages over duplicating content

+### MCP Tasks (long-running tools)
+
+Kit advertises [MCP task support](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-11-25/basic/utilities/tasks)
+during `initialize`. Cooperating servers can respond to `tools/call` with a
+`taskId` immediately; Kit then polls `tasks/get` / `tasks/result` until the
+task reaches a terminal state, and best-effort `tasks/cancel`s on context
+cancellation. Servers that don't advertise the capability keep their previous
+synchronous behaviour.
+
+```go
+host, _ := kit.New(ctx, &kit.Options{
+    // Per-server mode: auto (default), never, or always.
+    MCPTaskMode: map[string]kit.MCPTaskMode{
+        "build-server": kit.MCPTaskModeAlways,
+    },
+    MCPTaskTimeout:  15 * time.Minute, // total wall-clock cap
+    MCPTaskProgress: func(p kit.MCPTaskProgress) {
+        log.Printf("%s/%s: %s", p.Server, p.TaskID, p.Status)
+    },
+})
+
+// Inspect / cancel in-flight tasks
+tasks, _ := host.ListMCPTasks(ctx, "build-server")
+t, _    := host.GetMCPTask(ctx, "build-server", tasks[0].TaskID)
+if !t.Status.IsTerminal() {
+    _, _ = host.CancelMCPTask(ctx, "build-server", t.TaskID)
+}
+```
+
+The progress handler fires once when a task is accepted and again on every
+observed status transition; the final invocation always carries a terminal
+status (`MCPTaskStatusCompleted`, `MCPTaskStatusFailed`, or
+`MCPTaskStatusCancelled`). Don't block in the handler — dispatch long work on
+a goroutine.

 :::

+## MCP Tasks
+
+The [MCP Tasks utility](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-11-25/basic/utilities/tasks)
+turns a synchronous `tools/call` into a pollable async job: the server
+returns a `taskId` with status `working` immediately, and the client polls
+`tasks/get` / `tasks/result` until the task reaches a terminal state.
+
+Kit advertises task support during `initialize` and, by default, augments
+`tools/call` with task metadata only when the server advertises
+`tasks/toolCalls` capability — so any existing MCP server keeps its previous
+synchronous behaviour bit-for-bit. Long-running tools (builds, deployments,
+batch jobs, sub-agent runs) get HTTP/SSE timeout-resistance and clean
+cancellation "for free" once both sides opt in.
+
+### Per-server mode
+
+```go
+import "time"
+
+host, _ := kit.New(ctx, &kit.Options{
+    MCPTaskMode: map[string]kit.MCPTaskMode{
+        "build-server": kit.MCPTaskModeAlways, // force task-augmented calls
+        "chat-server":  kit.MCPTaskModeNever,  // force synchronous calls
+        // any server not in the map honours its `tasksMode` config field
+        // (default "auto")
+    },
+})
+```
+
+| Mode | Behaviour |
+|---|---|
+| `MCPTaskModeAuto` (default) | Augment `tools/call` with `TaskParams` only when the server advertised `tasks/toolCalls`. |
+| `MCPTaskModeNever` | Always issue `tools/call` synchronously, ignoring server capability. |
+| `MCPTaskModeAlways` | Always opt in, even when the server didn't advertise the capability. The server may still respond synchronously. |
+
+### Progress callbacks
+
+```go
+host, _ := kit.New(ctx, &kit.Options{
+    MCPTaskTimeout:  15 * time.Minute,        // total wall-clock cap
+    MCPTaskTTL:      30 * time.Minute,        // server retention hint
+    MCPTaskProgress: func(p kit.MCPTaskProgress) {
+        log.Printf("%s/%s: %s %s", p.Server, p.TaskID, p.Status, p.Message)
+    },
+})
+```
+
+The handler fires once when a task is accepted and again on every observed
+status transition. The final call always carries a terminal status
+(`MCPTaskStatusCompleted`, `MCPTaskStatusFailed`, or `MCPTaskStatusCancelled`).
+Do not block in the handler — dispatch long work on a goroutine.
+
+### Inspecting and cancelling tasks
+
+```go
+tasks, _ := host.ListMCPTasks(ctx, "build-server")
+for _, t := range tasks {
+    fmt.Printf("%s: %s (%s)\n", t.TaskID, t.Status, t.StatusMessage)
+}
+
+t, _ := host.GetMCPTask(ctx, "build-server", taskID)
+if !t.Status.IsTerminal() {
+    _, _ = host.CancelMCPTask(ctx, "build-server", taskID)
+}
+```
+
+`Kit.ListMCPTasks`, `Kit.GetMCPTask`, and `Kit.CancelMCPTask` work against any
+loaded MCP server that advertises the corresponding capability.
+`MCPTaskStatus.IsTerminal()` is the canonical check for completion.
+
+Context cancellation also works end-to-end: cancelling the `ctx` passed to a
+tool execution triggers a best-effort `tasks/cancel` before the call returns.

Ed Zynda	a95714a22d	fix(kit): resolve system-prompt file path before PromptBuilder (#25 ) When system-prompt was a file path (via --system-prompt, config entry, or SDK Options.SystemPrompt), the path string itself was used as the base prompt because config.LoadSystemPrompt only ran later in BuildProviderConfig — by which point viper had been overwritten with the path-augmented composed text. The LLM received the path instead of the prompt contents. - Call config.LoadSystemPrompt on the raw viper value in New() before PromptBuilder composes runtime context (AGENTS.md / skills / date). - Add HasCustomSystemPrompt() and GetSystemPromptSource() so SDK callers can inspect prompt state without reaching into viper. - Display 'System Prompt loaded: <source>' at startup in CLI and TUI modes, paralleling the per-server 'MCP server loaded' notice. - Add regression tests covering both file-path and inline prompt paths.

Maintainers had to remember to update both copies whenever an extension Context field was added. cmd/root.go is now 1463 lines (was 2225). The new helper lives in cmd/extension_context.go (455 lines, mostly the closures verbatim) and returns an extensions.Context with every field populated except Print/PrintInfo/PrintError, which each call site sets afterwards to match its phase.

Both are now consolidated in a new internal/extbridge package which is the only module-internal home that can legitimately import both pkg/kit/ (the public SDK) and internal/extensions/. cmd/ and internal/acpserver/ both import it, so SDK-event-to-extension-event schema changes only have one site to update.

Types (SubagentConfig/Result/Handle/etc.) and the SubagentHandle methods remain because they are exposed to extensions via Yaegi symbols and the Context.SpawnSubagent field. - cmd/root.go: LoadConfigWithEnvSubstitution — one-line wrapper around kit.LoadConfigWithEnvSubstitution with zero callers. go test -race ./... passes.	2026-05-07 12:20:08 +03:00

Ed Zynda	4ef57eec4e	docs(session): correct DefaultSessionDir convention comment - Stale comment showed ~/.kit/sessions/--<cwd-path>--/ which does not match the actual encoding (no leading/trailing dashes) - Update to reflect the real format and point to encodeCwdForDir for full rules	2026-05-05 14:54:20 +03:00
Ed Zynda	cbd828e190	fix(session): strip illegal characters from windows session dir (#18 ) - Encode cwd via new encodeCwdForDir helper that handles both `/` and `\` separators and strips characters illegal in Windows directory names (`: < > " \| ? *`) - Fixes session creation on Windows where the drive-letter colon produced names like `C:--test` and caused mkdir to fail - Add regression tests covering Unix paths, Windows drive roots, secondary drives, mixed separators, and other illegal chars Fixes #18	2026-05-05 14:46:36 +03:00

Ed Zynda	6e36053856	fix(mcp): validate tasksMode and inherit task options in Subagent (#21 ) Address two review findings on the MCP Tasks PR. - Config.Validate() now rejects unknown tasksMode values with a clear error naming the server and bad value. Without this a typo (e.g. "alwasy") was silently downgraded to "auto" by the runtime parser. - Kit.Subagent() now propagates the parent's six MCP task options (mode map, timeout, TTL, poll interval, max poll interval, progress callback) onto the child via a new inheritMCPTaskOptions helper. Without this, child subagents always saw default polling and no progress feedback regardless of parent configuration. The propagation logic lives in a helper so the test exercises the real code path instead of duplicating it; future task fields only need to be added in one place.	2026-05-04 17:06:11 +03:00
Ed Zynda	92eaaf6a59	docs(mcp): document MCP Tasks support (#21 ) - README: add tasksMode YAML example and MCP Tasks subsection with SDK opt-in snippet - pkg/kit/README: add MCP Tasks subsection covering MCPTaskMode, progress callbacks, and List/Get/Cancel methods - www/configuration: document the tasksMode server field plus a per-mode behaviour table - www/sdk/options: extend the Compaction & MCP table with the six new Options fields and add a top-level MCP Tasks section - www/sdk/overview: add a brief MCP Tasks section between MCP prompts/resources and Context & compaction All examples verified against the public symbols in pkg/kit/mcp_tasks.go; docs site builds cleanly via npx tome build.	2026-05-04 17:01:47 +03:00
Ed Zynda	e6084b7bd0	feat(mcp): add MCP Tasks support at the SDK level (#21 ) Implement Phase 1 of the MCP Tasks spec so long-running tools/call requests can run asynchronously, survive proxy timeouts, and be cancelled mid-flight. - connection pool now advertises mcp.NewTasksCapability() during initialize and captures the InitializeResult so callers can detect per-server task support - new MCPServerConfig.TasksMode (auto\|never\|always, default auto) parsed from both new and legacy mcp.json shapes - ExecuteTool augments tools/call with TaskParams when policy and capability allow, polls tasks/get / tasks/result until terminal, and best-effort tasks/cancel on context cancellation - new MCPToolManager methods: SetTaskConfig, ListServerTasks, GetServerTask, CancelServerTask - public SDK surface in pkg/kit: MCPTask, MCPTaskStatus, MCPTaskMode, MCPTaskProgress, MCPTaskProgressHandler, plus Options fields (MCPTaskMode, MCPTaskTimeout, MCPTaskTTL, MCPTaskPollInterval, MCPTaskMaxPollInterval, MCPTaskProgress) and Kit.{List,Get,Cancel} MCPTask methods - works around two upstream mcp-go v0.51.0 parser bugs (ParseCallToolResult rejects task responses; ParseTaskResultResult looks for content under a non-existent nested key) by decoding the wire shape directly via the transport - defaults to MCPTaskModeAuto so servers that don't advertise task support behave exactly as before Fixes #21	2026-05-04 16:51:09 +03:00

Ed Zynda	e830bf87ca	refactor(models): remove responses API model registration hack Fantasy v0.21.0 natively includes gpt-5.5 and other newer models in its responsesModelIDs/responsesReasoningModelIDs lists, making our workaround unnecessary. - Delete responses_models.go (go:linkname hack + RegisterResponsesModels) - Delete responses_models_test.go - Replace isResponsesAPIModel/isResponsesReasoningModel heuristics with direct openai.IsResponsesModel/openai.IsResponsesReasoningModel calls - Remove RegisterResponsesModels calls from registry init/reload - Remove hack documentation from AGENTS.md - Update all deps (fantasy v0.21.0, smithy-go, ultraviolet, etc.)	2026-04-27 09:42:52 +03:00
Ed Zynda	3881d1c28f	fix(models): auto-register new OpenAI models for Responses API routing Fantasy's hardcoded responsesModelIDs list gates whether a model uses the Responses API or Chat Completions code path. When a new model (e.g. gpt-5.5) is added via `kit update-models` but fantasy hasn't been updated yet, the type mismatch between ResponsesProviderOptions and ProviderOptions causes a crash. - Add isResponsesAPIModel()/isResponsesReasoningModel() helpers that supplement fantasy's checks with prefix-based heuristics for modern OpenAI model families (gpt-4.1+, gpt-5+, o-series, codex, chatgpt) - Add RegisterResponsesModels() using go:linkname to append missing model IDs from our database into fantasy's internal slices at init time and after ReloadGlobalRegistry() - Replace all direct openai.IsResponsesModel/IsResponsesReasoningModel calls in providers.go with the new helpers - Merge embedded + cached model databases instead of cache-only fallback - Bump fantasy v0.19.0 -> v0.20.0 to match existing import usage - Document the technique and model-family update process in AGENTS.md	2026-04-24 15:13:38 +03:00

Ed Zynda	996b15c9b9	fix(extensions): return nil error for blocked/disabled tools so LLM sees the reason Tool blocking via OnToolCall and SetActiveTools returned both a ToolResponse (IsError=true) and a Go error. Fantasy treats a non-nil Go error from tool.Run() as a critical failure, aborting the agent loop without delivering the tool result to the LLM. The model never saw the block reason and would retry or hallucinate. - Return nil error for blocked tools (OnToolCall Block=true) - Return nil error for disabled tools (SetActiveTools) - Return nil error for extension tool execution failures - Update tests to assert nil error (IsError response conveys the error) Fixes #20	2026-04-23 13:13:28 +03:00
