… subagent persistence

Implements plan units U1-U3 of the compaction unification
(docs/plans/2026-08-19-001-refactor-compaction-unification-plan.md).

U1 (R31-R33): user messages can never leave the model view, in any
mode or scope. buildCompactionApply settles user flags universally;
selectCut takes an exemptIds set (resolveUserExemptIds) so pinned ids
never enter the compactable range and don't consume preserve budget.
New config keys keep_last_user_messages (main 10, subagents null=all,
R32 task-head guarantee) and pin_first_user_message (default true),
surfaced in CompactionTab, ProjectConfigView, and the IPC boundary.

Also fixes an inverted forward-snap in the exempt handling and
re-attaches the visible exempt prefix in reanchorSelectiveReplay,
which together were the root cause of the subagent degrade-test
regressions.

U2 (R27): compaction progress becomes a typed, agent-scoped
CompactionProgressEvent (shared/types/compaction-progress.ts). Main
scope rides the sequenced turn-event broadcast; subagents ride the
live projection to the owning window, and SubagentTranscript renders
the widget. The synthetic 'compaction' tool-call channel
(compactionWidgetToolId machinery, JSON-stringified args,
toolName matching in ChatStream) is deleted. Replay derives the
terminal widget from the persisted compacted marker in both scopes.
A per-session epoch guard keeps trailing throttled flushes from
re-opening completed widgets.

U3 (R36): subagent compaction persistence becomes a single
transaction (applySubagentCompactionPersistence in session/storage)
that flags message ids, inserts the summary head, and rewrites
record_json atomically — replacing the _setChainMessages/markCompaction
best-effort pokes. Wired through SubagentPersistence via an injected
sink; crash before/after resume one coherent chain state.

All suites green: 3817 unit, 544 integration/parity, typecheck, lint.
One pipeline module (llm/compaction/pipeline.ts) now owns the gate
sequence — calibrate+clamp → threshold/hysteresis gate → selectCut
(with exempt ids) → mechanicalReclaim → evaluateTriggerWithReclaim —
replacing four diverged copies in tryCompactSynchronously,
handleUsageCompaction, tryCompactSubagentHistory, and the manager's
inline estimate blocks (review #44, #47). The pipeline returns a
decision object; adapters keep owning persistence, trigger mutation,
widget emission, and pause pokes. Behavior is unchanged except:

- Compactor concurrency semaphore (acquireCompactionSlot, FIFO,
  default 2, config.compaction.max_concurrent_compactors 1-8) wraps
  the prepare LLM calls in both scopes — bounded compaction storms
  from parallel subagents.
- Subagent spawn/resume estimate gate (R29 fire point 1): before a
  resumed run's first stream, the pipeline runs once over the
  hydrated history; calibrate-or-skip held (no heuristic fallback),
  reading chain-message usages as the calibration source since
  restored records carry summed aggregates.

CompactableRange now has one definition (select.ts) re-exported by
trigger.ts, reclaim.ts, and selective/manifest.ts — it was actually
duplicated in four files, not three. Config surface adds the
max_concurrent_compactors key through the boundary types and the
renderer config draft's key guard.

All suites green: 3837 unit, parity + integration, typecheck, lint,
runtime cycles.
…n (U5)

Subagent compaction now applies mid-run with main's timing semantics:
the tool loop pauses at the next step boundary, the pending compaction
is re-validated against live chain history, applied transactionally,
and the stream restarts with the compacted history — never from the
bare task message.

- next-request-stop pause registry generalized from session-keyed to
  (sessionId, agentScopeId); main call sites migrate with identical
  behavior. shouldStopEarlyForScope is the scoped form the subagent
  runner binds.
- New shared pending store (llm/compaction/pending-store.ts) holds
  scope-keyed pending entries with isPendingCutStillValid and
  dedupeHistoryById, so both adapters enforce the same R37 rules
  without agents/ importing ipc/chat.
- tryCompactSubagentHistory splits into prepareSubagentCompaction
  (gate + compactor start, returns pending entry) and
  applySubagentPendingCompaction (apply built over the apply-time
  live history). markPrepareStarted now fires only when a pending
  registers.
- Subagent runner gains a restart loop around streamChat reading a
  mutable history box; pause-apply is raced against the abort signal;
  interrupt during pause discards gate + pending cleanly (review #33
  twin). assembler.rebase() replaces the messages field poke.
- Manager applies via the U3 transactional sink, swaps the box, emits
  widget complete, and keeps the R17 still-over/partial-report check
  at pause-apply; unconsumed pendings are discarded at run end.

All suites green: 3848 unit, typecheck, lint, runtime cycles.
A classified context_length_exceeded error inside a subagent run now
triggers one synchronous compact-and-retry before degradation (R30,
R29 fire point 3). The structured partial report (R17) becomes the
terminal fallback only when the retry still overflows or the gate
finds nothing left to compact.

The runner's restart loop intercepts the error event (via the shared
isContextLengthExceededMessage classifier — no ad-hoc matching),
guards with a per-run retry flag mirroring main's
hasTriedCompactionRetry, and routes to a compactForOverflow
controller entry. The manager's closure records the window as a
measured lower bound when uncalibrated, consumes any prepared
pending from the proactive fire points, otherwise runs the pipeline
gate → prepare → apply over live history, persists through the
transactional U3 sink, swaps the history box, and restarts the
stream once. Abort races both phases and degrades cleanly.

Second overflow, gate no-op, or compactor failure degrade to the
partial report as a normal result. The proactive pause path and its
still-over check are unchanged.

All suites green: 3858 unit, typecheck, lint, runtime cycles.
…y (U7)

The final unit of the compaction unification. Subagent compaction
orchestration moves out of SubagentManager._startRun's ~290-line
closure block into a per-run SubagentCompactionController
(agents/subagent-compaction-controller.ts) with narrow injected deps
(record, history box, assembler rebaser, persistence sink, emitter,
config getter). _startRun shrinks to controller construction plus
three event hooks; manager.ts drops from 2551 to 1839 lines.

Selective compaction now has ONE never-delete apply builder:
buildSelectiveCompactionApply in llm/compaction/apply.ts, used by both
scopes. The subagent path's stricter rules are canonical — R3 originals
never deleted, user messages never flagged, pre-existing flags survive
inside the covered range, kept-verbatim ids settle back to visible.
Main's persistSelectiveCompaction delegates its flag/settle computation
to the builder (transaction shape and re-anchoring stay local); the
fake SelectiveCompactionResult shims and the
unflagUserMessagesInApply/filterUserFlaggedIds dead exports are
deleted. Main's fallback branches now merge reclaim flags with the
selective pass (the subagent behavior) instead of replacing.

AGENTS.md structure notes updated for the new modules.

…ycle

Review of the unification branch (10 reviewer personas; three api-contract
P1s verified directly against source). All suites green: 3877 unit, 544
integration/parity, typecheck, lint, cycles.

P1 schema gaps (runtime-only; preload validation is mocked in unit tests):
- subagentDeltaEventSchema gains the compaction_progress variant — live
  subagent widget events were dropped at the preload boundary (R27 dead
  end-to-end despite green tests). Emitter now skips when sessionId is
  unbound instead of sending '' (uuid-validated).
- subagentLiveProjectionSchema gains compactionProgress — the snapshot
  path stripped the field via zod unknown-key removal.
- compactionPartialSchema accepts max_concurrent_compactors — the
  renderer always sends it, so the entire Compaction settings save
  failed with "Unrecognized key".

Durability (flagged by 5 reviewers — R36):
- _commitApply is durable-write-first: the SQLite transaction runs
  before any memory swap; failure logs, consumes the pending, emits a
  terminal widget, and skips markCompaction. Checkpoint lag is
  reconciled in-transaction (durable row + missing live tail) before
  flag/anchor resolution — the systematic 'anchor not found' throw
  mid-run. Integrity throws for genuinely-unknown ids are untouched.
- createSubagentCompactionSink swallows only environment unavailability;
  genuine write failures propagate.

Lifecycle:
- Widget epoch guard + timer cleanup in discard(): a trailing throttled
  'compacting' flush can no longer resurrect a completed/interrupted
  subagent widget.
- Runner restart loop consumes the pause only when the segment stopped
  early at a boundary (main's !completed twin) — no more duplicate final
  answer turn when the pause arms on a naturally-finishing stream.
- applyAtPause rejections log and restart instead of silently ending
  the run as completed.
- In-flight prepare latch + abort re-checks close the double-prepare
  window (spawn gate vs first usage event) and the discard-then-register
  race.
- snapshotTranscript stamps accumulated usage; silent catches now log;
  dead shouldStopEarlyForScope export and redundant schema override
  deleted; semaphore release re-checks the limit; AGENTS.md tree
  completed for the compaction engine.
Every compaction runs on behalf of a live stream (main agent or
subagent) that admission control already bounds; another stream would
be running anyway. The limit only slowed things down — most visibly
queueing user-visible sends and dead-run overflow retries behind
background compactions on the process-wide FIFO (review N1).

CompactorSlotSemaphore, acquireCompactionSlot, its constants, and the
max_concurrent_compactors knob are deleted; all acquire sites run
ungated. Rate-limit bursts remain covered by the existing retry
middleware (exponential backoff) and admission caps. Previously-saved
configs carrying max_concurrent_compactors parse-and-ignore via the
keep_recent_chains-style transform, so old configs don't hard-fail.

All suites green: 3869 unit, typecheck, lint, runtime cycles.
…s effective

Apply-time user-message protection now scopes to the resolved exempt
set (resolveUserExemptIds) instead of unconditionally shielding every
user message. Exempt ids are never flagged and are restored if
pre-flagged; non-exempt user messages follow normal compaction
semantics — excluded from replay, represented only in the summary head,
ending the verbatim+summary double representation.

The exempt set is resolved once per attempt per scope and threaded as
the same object into the gate, the selective runner, and the apply
builders; pause/overflow applies re-resolve from current config.
Omitting exemptIds preserves the old protect-all behavior, so every
call site changes explicitly.

Supersedes plan R32 ("not configurable off") by decision: the knob is
real in both scopes. Subagent default null keeps all user messages
pinned; keep_last=1 + pin_first=true still protects the delegated task
head; keep_last=1 + pin_first=false may summarize old
answer_subagent_question exchanges. Main keep_last=10 lets the
11th-oldest user message leave the model view.

13 new tests across apply/select/subagent/selective/chat-ipc suites.
All green: 3882 unit, typecheck, lint.
…bort-race, cast removal

Behavior-preserving maintainability pass over the subagent compaction
controller and shared contracts (review M1-M4, M6, M9):

- Calibration math routes through deriveTokensPerChar/clampTokensPerChar;
  the chars/4-class 0.25 and n*200 heuristic fallbacks are gone. When
  nothing calibrates the apply now mirrors main (apply any valid pending)
  instead of rejecting on a fabricated ratio.
- Config-fallback IIFE ladders collapse into _threshold()/
  _minCompactableTokens() accessors; the two post-compaction baseline
  estimators merge into one _postCompactionBaselineTokens.
- raceAbortDuring moves to subagent-compaction.ts (shared contracts)
  and replaces the two inline settle-once copies — the interrupt-
  correctness core now has exactly one implementation.
- The fabricated partial-Config cast is replaced by the real config
  (reload failure falls back to the run-captured copy); the no-op
  double cast and unnecessary Chain[] cast are deleted.
- Pipeline imports fold into one static import (trigger.js stays
  dynamic — the real load-graph case).
- AGENTS.md gains the dynamic-import rule for agents/ reaching the
  accounting/provider chains, and the compaction config-table rows.

All suites green: 3882 unit, typecheck, lint, runtime cycles. Zero
test-expectation changes.
persistSelectiveCompaction's five call sites share one
buildSelectivePersistInput builder (per-site flaggedIds/reclaimedIds
variations stay explicit parameters); the thrice-repeated arm-pending
tail (preparing widget -> scoped pause -> session activity) collapses
into armPendingAndPause; the two prepare-rejection teardowns fold into
settlePrepareRejection. applyPendingCompactionIfAny now consumes its
pending via takeCompactionPending — one idiom with the subagent side.
The optional module split was skipped: the emitter reads trigger state
owned by the rest of the file, so a split forces a runtime cycle.

Behavior-preserving; all suites green (3883 unit, parity, typecheck,
lint, cycles).
…ecord (M7/M8)

SubagentManager gains an options seam for the compaction durable-write
sink: omitted keeps the lazy production sink, null forces memory-only,
an injected sink bypasses the Vitest-broken require entirely. A new
manager-level test drives a pause-boundary apply through a recording
sink and pins the durable payload shape (flaggedMessageIds, summary
head id, insertBeforeMessageId anchor, liveMessages) — the seam the
manager suite previously never exercised.

The controller's record dependency narrows to a structural
CompactionRunRecord contract (id, sessionId, selection, chain view,
usage, task, result setter) exported from the shared contracts module;
the controller no longer imports the manager at all, and the manager
call site is unchanged via structural typing.

Behavior-preserving; all suites green (3883 unit, parity, typecheck,
lint, cycles).

Walkthrough

The pull request introduces shared compaction infrastructure, per-run subagent compaction with pause and overflow recovery, targeted persistence, scoped user-message retention, and typed progress events rendered through the Electron IPC and UI layers.

Changes

Compaction flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared compaction engine and contracts
electron/src/main/llm/compaction/*, electron/src/main/agents/subagent-compaction.ts, electron/src/main/config/schema.ts
Compaction now uses shared gate decisions, pending entries, calibrated cuts, scoped user exemptions, and shared selective application.
Subagent compaction controller and stream restart
electron/src/main/agents/subagent-compaction-controller.ts, electron/src/main/agents/subagent-runner.ts, electron/src/main/agents/manager.ts
Subagent runs prepare compaction asynchronously, pause at boundaries, retry once after context overflow, update mutable history, and degrade or abort when recovery cannot continue.
Durable persistence and main-agent compaction
electron/src/main/session/*, electron/src/main/agents/subagent-persistence.ts, electron/src/main/ipc/chat/compaction.ts, electron/src/main/ipc/next-request-stop.ts
Compaction writes use targeted transactions and scoped pause state. Main-agent paths use the shared pending store, gate pipeline, exemption resolution, and typed progress events.
Progress IPC and projection state
electron/src/shared/types/*, electron/src/shared/chat/turn-projection.ts, electron/src/preload/index.ts, electron/src/main/agents/subagent-live-projection.ts, electron/src/renderer/hooks/useChat.ts
Main-chat and subagent compaction progress now has typed schemas, IPC channels, projection fields, sequencing, and lifecycle resets.
Renderer widgets, configuration, and regression coverage
electron/src/renderer/components/*, electron/src/renderer/utils/*, electron/tests/unit/*, electron/tests/parity/*
The renderer displays live progress and persisted summaries. Preferences expose user-retention settings. Tests cover compaction selection, application, persistence, retry, projection, IPC, and rendering.

Derive the stored event fields after advance instead of duplicating the +1 arithmetic.

The stored compactionProgress pre-computes sequence + 1 and sessionRevision + 1 to predict what advance and emitEntry will produce. The values agree today. If advance ever changes its increment, the stored projection and the emitted delta diverge silently, and the snapshot and stream paths disagree.

Consider advancing first, then building the stored copy from the post-advance state.

phase accepts string, so this call is type-safe but does not enforce the shared phase contract. The producer emits preparing and compacting, but the widget checks only reclaiming and summarizing.

armPending depends on two private controller members.

The helper casts the controller to reach _ensureInit and _trigger. Any rename of those members breaks the test with a type-unsafe cast rather than a compile error.

Reset the compaction pending and pause registries between tests.

armPending writes into the module-scoped pending store through setCompactionPending, and the controller arms the scoped pause. afterEach clears only the database cache and the temporary directory. If an integration test fails before applyAtPause consumes the entry, the pending and the pause stay armed for the next test in this file, which uses the same SESSION_ID and SUB_ID.

Clear both registries in afterEach so each test starts from a known state.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

A superseded run generation leaves its compaction progress timer armed.

compaction.discard() runs only when this._runs.isCurrent(run). discard() is the only place that bumps _terminalEpoch and clears _progressTimer in the controller. A superseded generation therefore keeps a scheduled _onTextDelta flush. That flush emits phase: 'compacting' into the live projection for the same record.id after the replacement run already started, so the compaction widget can flip back to a running phase.

Keep the shared pause and pending state untouched for a superseded generation, and cancel only the local progress timer.

🐛 Proposed fix

Add a local-only teardown to SubagentCompactionController:

  /** Local teardown for a superseded generation: silence progress only. */
  stopProgress(): void {
    this._terminalEpoch += 1;
    if (this._progressTimer) {
      clearTimeout(this._progressTimer);
      this._progressTimer = null;
    }
  }

Then call it in the run loop:

     } finally {
       if (this._runs.isCurrent(run)) {
         compaction.discard();
+      } else {
+        // The replacement generation owns the scoped pause and pending state;
+        // only this generation's throttled progress flush must be silenced.
+        compaction.stopProgress();
+      }
+      if (this._runs.isCurrent(run)) {
         if (record.state === SubagentState.INTERRUPTED) {
           this._finishLive(record, SubagentState.INTERRUPTED);
         }

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

_ensureInit reports failure to concurrent callers and can drop a prepared compaction.

_initDone is set to true before the first await. A second call that arrives while the first init is still pending takes the early-return branch and evaluates this._contextTokens !== null && this._trigger !== null. At that moment _trigger is still null, so the second call returns false even though init later succeeds.

The fire points treat false as "compaction unavailable". In _applyPendingAtPause (line 390) that path consumes the pending, emits complete, and returns 'skipped', so an already prepared compaction is discarded. startSpawnTimeGate and onUsageEvent can run concurrently with the pause apply, so this race is reachable.

Memoize the in-flight init promise so every caller awaits the same result.

Prevent cumulative usage from being stamped twice

When the run emits text after snapshotTranscript(), finalization stamps the larger cumulative usage on a new message while the boundary message retains the earlier stamp. sumMessageUsages() then counts the earlier usage twice. Avoid stamping usage at the boundary, or replace the earlier stamp during finalization.

Report failure when the shared settle produces nothing and no new replay rows exist.

buildSelectiveCompactionApply returns null when there is nothing to flag. In that case flaggedSet is empty. If newReplayMessages is also empty, persistCompactionDurable writes no flags and no summary chain, but the function still returns true. The caller then calls setChatHistory with the re-anchored replay and reports applied: true. Durable history keeps every original unflagged while the model replay drops summarized originals, so the next session load reverts the compaction.

Return false for that combination so the caller treats the compaction as not applied.

🛡️ Proposed guard
     const flaggedSet = new Set(settled?.flaggedIds ?? []);
     const updatedAt = new Date().toISOString();
     // New replay rows produced by the selective run (synthetic summaries +
     // ranged copies) — every replay id that is not already durable.
     const existingIds = new Set(existing.chains.flatMap((c) => c.messages.map((m) => m.id)));
     const newReplayMessages = input.replayMessages.filter((m) => !existingIds.has(m.id)) as Message[];
+    // Nothing to flag and nothing new to insert: there is no durable write to
+    // make, so the caller must not rewrite the model replay or report applied.
+    if (flaggedSet.size === 0 && newReplayMessages.length === 0) return false;

Synchronize the cached Session.subagentChains after compaction. applySubagentCompaction updates durable storage but not _sessions. Before the next checkpoint copies the updated runtime record, saveFullSessionFallback can overlay the stale cached record and restore the pre-compaction row. Update the cached record after a successful write, or ensure the caller does so.

Preserve the raw lifecycle fields during compaction.

subagentRecordFromStorageDict converts QUEUED, PENDING, and RUNNING to INTERRUPTED and fills a missing end_time. Re-serializing that parsed record writes the false terminal state to both record_json and summary_json. Capture the raw, schema-valid status and end_time before parsing, then restore them on updatedRecord.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Line 100 asserts nothing.

toContainEqual checks that the array contains one element deeply equal to the argument. flaggedIds holds strings, and expect.arrayContaining(...) can never equal a string. The negated form therefore passes for any input, including a flaggedIds array that contains every user id. Assert per id instead.

💚 Proposed fix for the vacuous assertion
     expect(result.flaggedIds.length).toBe(expectedFlagged);
-    expect(result.flaggedIds).not.toContainEqual(expect.arrayContaining(rangeUserIds));

…anscript corruption

Mid-turn compactions corrupted the live transcript: "Compacted 1 message"
stub fragments, the summary rendering above the turn's user message, and
the user message disappearing after the turn ended. Durably, a single
130-message turn exploded into 29 chain rows (~630 message rows).

Four reinforcing causes:

- The durable write split the active chain into prefix/summary/continuing
  rows, breaking one-turn-one-chain-row. The bounded renderer view loads
  newest-chain-first, so the extra rows starved the row holding the user
  message and pushed sessions past the 20-chain collapse threshold.
- Mid-turn resume re-anchored at the user message while checkpoints
  rewrote the entire turn into the continuing row, so each subsequent
  compaction re-split a bigger copy (duplication ladder).
- The session cache was hand-rebuilt from the pre-compaction view, and
  session:open (the compaction reload) serves that cache — so the
  renderer saw a stale, unsplit layout.
- The renderer buffered compacted runs per-chain, fragmenting runs that
  spanned the split rows into count-1 stubs.

Fix:

- storage: applyCompactionPersistence inserts summary heads INLINE into
  the anchor chain at the cut (mirroring the subagent scope) — flags plus
  one message, no row restructuring. splitTailChain machinery removed.
- manager: refreshCachedSessionFromStorage rebuilds the cache from
  durable rows via a new unrecovered bounded load (ACTIVE status and the
  active-chain pointer survive); publishCompactedSession uses it after
  every durable compaction write. buildCompactedCacheChains deleted.
- renderer: stream-building threads one shared compacted-run buffer
  across chain walks (ChainWalkState), flushing only at visible items, so
  runs merge across chain boundaries; cross-chain message-id dedupe;
  body-less compacted-only chains drop no footer.
- storage: deleteSupersededChains judges containment on visible ids so a
  hidden usage carrier can no longer protect a stale duplicate row.

Verified end-to-end against a copy of the corrupted production session:
user message first, one merged stub, current summary, preserved window,
active footer — with the chain remaining a single ACTIVE row across

…t inside expanded compacted runs

Expanding a compacted run that contains a flagged (superseded) summary
head previously rendered that head through the generic "other" message
dispatch — visually identical to an agent-authored bubble, hiding which
text came from the model and which was a compaction artifact.

The expanded-run dispatch in flushCompactedBuffer now checks for the
compacted marker first and emits a compaction-summary item (the
CompactionWidget) in buffer order, so superseded heads stay visually
distinct from agent messages when the hidden compacted content is
revealed.
