Automatic compaction fires mid-conversation, right after the loop warmed
the provider's KV cache with the last routed request. The default
summarizer then issued a separate request whose prefix shared nothing
with that warm request — a bespoke summarizer system prompt followed by
the older history flattened to one rendered transcript string — so a
differing first token invalidated the entire cached prefix and every
compaction re-processed the whole replayed history twice.
Move the compaction directive from the FRONT (a fresh system prompt) to
the END (a trailing user message), and replay the last routed request's
own system prompt, tools, message prefix, and shadowed-region messages
verbatim via session.requestHeader() + deriveEventMessage. The auxiliary
call is now a genuine prefix-extension of the warm request, so the
provider reuses the cached tokens up to the trailing instruction.
SummarizationInput carries the replayed prefix instead of a flat string;
the now-unused renderTranscript/renderContentBlocks path is removed with
its spec. Cache reuse is best-effort (head compaction guarantees a hit;
a mid-range compaction or a differently-routed summarizer forgoes it),
correctness is not.
A configured root that already exists as a file or unreadable directory cannot host cwd buckets, but the backend previously mounted and deferred that deterministic configuration error until a later list or write.
Probe the resolved root while the plugin loads, surface every error except ENOENT, and keep an absent root valid for lazy first materialization. Document the timing contract, regenerate the config catalog, and pin the non-directory case at the load boundary.
JSONL discovered a log by the requested session id but later routed repair and append from the parsed header. A log selected for session A could therefore declare session B and redirect mutation to B.
Validate the requested id and exact header-derived cwd-bucket path before returning a stored prefix, reject duplicate ids across buckets, and repeat the id/cwd guards in the coordinator before repair or state publication. Collapse the redundant loadLive hook into loadStored while retaining the existing bucket layout and one-live-writer topology, avoiding flat-layout churn and a locator generic that SQLite and test backends do not need.
A TUI run against an unreachable endpoint failed with only 'fetch failed':
undici wraps transport failures in a bare TypeError whose diagnosis lives
on .cause, and every diagnostic seam rendered only error.message. The
readline front door additionally rendered failed turns as pure silence.
- dsh-llm: new errorChain(value) renders the full cause chain and
AggregateError members with circular/hostile-coercion containment.
- llm-deepseek: pre-response transport failures throw LlmError('NETWORK')
naming the endpoint and chaining the fetch TypeError; aborts keep their
DOMException so the loop still classifies them as cancellation.
- agent-loop: durable turn/end error messages and logger warnings render
through errorChain; local renderThrown copies removed.
- ui-stdio: failure turn/end reasons now render ([turn failed <code>],
[turn aborted], [turn rejected], output-token-limit); startup-failure
logs use errorChain.
- ui-tui: agent/error notices and the startup-failure line use errorChain.
