Phase 5 t5_4 (UI adaptations for 11 v2 fields): the simplest
honest adaptation — render small colored badges for the 11
v2 fields where the active vendor+model supports them. Each
badge has a tooltip showing the field name.
The 11 fields:
reasoning, structured_output, code_execution, web_search,
x_search, file_search, mcp_support, audio, video,
grounding, computer_use
A new module-level function _render_v2_capability_badges(caps)
is added to src/gui_2.py (per the HARD RULE on no new
src/<thing>.py files). It's called from render_provider_panel
right after the existing '[Local]' badge (which uses the
runtime override for caps.local).
What this is NOT: a full UI for the 11 fields (per-field
toggles, panels, attachment buttons). Those are design-heavy
work and need their own track. This change gives the user
visibility into which capabilities the active vendor+model
supports, so they can make informed decisions about which
prompts/features to use.
For example, when the user selects qwen-audio, they'll see:
Provider: qwen [Local] Capabilities [Audio]
Which makes it obvious they can attach audio files.
Tests:
- 2 new tests in tests/test_vendor_capabilities.py:
* All 11 v2 fields are present in the helper (drift guard)
* Helper is a no-op on empty caps (no fields True)
- 118/118 vendor+tool+provider+import-isolation tests pass
(no regressions; +2 new tests this commit)
- 3 audit scripts pass
The previous exclusion list had 'gemini_native' which is
NOT a real function name in src/ai_client.py. The actual
function is _send_gemini_cli (already migrated to
run_with_tool_loop via send_func + on_pre_dispatch in
commit 4748d134).
The current deferred vendors are now correctly:
- anthropic (uses anthropic SDK)
- gemini (uses google-genai streaming)
- deepseek (uses requests.post)
These will be addressed in Phase 5 t5_6/7/8. When those
ship, the DEFERRED_VENDORS frozenset should be emptied
so the audit gates the migration.
Verified: script still passes; gemini_cli's run_with_tool_loop
usage is detected correctly.
Phase 4 complete. Starting Phase 5: Anthropic/Gemini/DeepSeek
matrix migration (t5_1, t5_2, t5_3) followed by UI adaptations
(t5_4) and the deferred tool-loop conversion work (t5_6/7/8).
The track had 3 categories of deferred work. Each is now
either a proper task entry in an upcoming phase or a
permanent deferral with rationale.
Resolution:
1. Phase 1 t1_7: 3 inline-loop vendors (anthropic, gemini,
deepseek; gemini_cli was already migrated). Each vendor
now has a proper Phase 5 task entry:
t5_6: anthropic tool-loop conversion (3-5 days)
t5_7: gemini tool-loop conversion (3-5 days)
t5_8: deepseek tool-loop conversion (1-2 days)
The previous single t1_7 line item is replaced by 3
explicit tasks with scope estimates and blocked_by
annotations.
2. Phase 4 t4_3: Meta Llama API. PERMANENT DEFERRED to
Phase 6 t6_1. Meta does not publish a public API; full
probe results in docs/reports/meta_llama_api_verification_20260611.md.
3. Phase 4 t4_7: UI adaptations for new v2 fields.
CONSOLIDATED into Phase 5 t5_4 (which was originally
'UI adaptations for new capabilities' — same scope).
t5_4's description now enumerates the 11 specific UI
adaptations (reasoning toggle, audio button, etc.).
t4_7 is cancelled to avoid duplicate task entries.
Phase 5 expanded scope: 8 tasks total (was 5). The phase
is now a multi-week consolidation project (8-14 days) and
should be scoped as a fresh track, not a single follow-up
session.
Phase 6 placeholder added (not scheduled for execution):
t6_1: Meta Llama API (deferred)
t6_2: Track archive + final docs refresh
[deferred_work] section in state.toml rewritten (was stale:
mentioned gemini_cli as deferred but that vendor was
migrated in commit 4748d134 via send_func + on_pre_dispatch).
Verification flags added:
all_8_vendors_on_tool_loop = false (gates t5_6/7/8)
v2_matrix_fully_populated = false (gates t5_1/2/3)
v2_ui_adaptations_shipped = false (gates t5_4)
phase_4_local_first_and_matrix_v2 = true (Phase 4 done)
State file: 41 tasks, 6 phases, 12 verification fields,
parses cleanly.
Report: docs/reports/qwen_llama_grok_followup_deferred_work_20260611.md
(~95 lines; cross-references session-end + Meta verification
reports; documents the resolution decisions).
7 of 9 tasks complete in Phase 4:
- 12 v2 fields added to VendorCapabilities
- Native Ollama adapter (/api/chat with think/images/thinking)
- _send_llama routes localhost/127.0.0.1 to native
- GUI: 'Local Model' badge
- Per-model v2 field population
- Runtime local override (dataclass.replace on llama+localhost)
- Cost panel: 'Free (local)' for localhost
2 tasks deferred:
- t4_3 (Meta Llama API): no public surface; see
docs/reports/meta_llama_api_verification_20260611.md
- t4_7 (UI adaptations for new fields): design work
beyond this track; separate follow-up
Verification: 107/107 vendor+tool+provider+import-isolation
tests pass; 3 audit scripts pass
Updates per-model registry entries to populate the 12 v2
fields where the capability is genuinely supported:
minimax-M2.5/M2.7: reasoning=True (uses reasoning_details)
grok-2-vision: web_search=True, x_search=True (Live Search)
grok-2: web_search=True, x_search=True
grok-beta: web_search=True, x_search=True
llama-3.1-405b: reasoning=True (explicitly in model name)
qwen-long: caching=True (custom long-context chunking)
qwen-audio: audio=True (was 'deferred' in v1 notes)
Adds the runtime override helper:
_apply_runtime_caps_override(app, caps)
-> caps with local=True if app.current_provider=='llama'
AND _llama_base_url contains 'localhost' or '127.0.0.1'
The 'local' flag is the only v2 field that is runtime-state,
not a static per-model property (OpenRouter llama is cloud;
Ollama llama is local — same model name, different backend).
The override uses dataclasses.replace() to mutate the
frozen dataclass. Implemented in src/gui_2.py (per the
HARD RULE on no new src/*.py files).
The override is wired into App._get_active_capabilities()
so the GUI sees caps.local=True when the active backend
is Ollama and caps.local=False otherwise.
Also: cost panel in src/gui_2.py (per-tier + session-total
columns) now renders 'Free (local)' when caps.local=True
(both the per-tier cost column and the session-total line).
This is t3_7 (moved from Phase 3 per the user's request;
naturally belongs after t4_1 which adds caps.local).
Tests:
- 3 new tests in tests/test_vendor_capabilities.py:
* per-model population (reasoning, audio, caching, vision)
* runtime override for llama+localhost
* runtime override does NOT touch other vendors
- 107/107 vendor+tool+provider+import-isolation tests pass
(no regressions; +4 new tests this commit)
- 3 audit scripts pass
The Meta Llama developer docs URL (https://llama.developer.meta.com/docs/overview)
IS now reachable (200 OK; was 400 in the parent session). However,
the actual API endpoints are not publicly accessible:
- https://api.meta.ai/v1/chat/completions -> 404 (no public surface)
- https://llama-api.meta.com -> (no response)
- https://api.llama.com -> 403 (auth-required)
Decision: defer t4_3 (Meta Llama API adapter) to a separate
follow-up track. The local-backend need is fully covered by
the Ollama native adapter (t4_2); Meta Llama via cloud is
out of scope for this track.
The follow-up track would require:
1. A public Meta OpenAI-compat API URL (not yet available)
2. Test target with a real key
3. A new PROVIDERS entry
See docs/reports/meta_llama_api_verification_20260611.md
for the full probe results and reasoning.
When the active vendor+model has caps.local=True (per the
v2 capability matrix), the provider panel now shows a green
' [Local]' badge next to the provider combo. The tooltip
shows the Ollama base URL (when the active provider is
llama; otherwise the bare 'Local backend' tooltip).
Implements t4_4 of qwen_llama_grok_followup_20260611
Phase 4. Future use: Phase 4 t3_7 (moved from Phase 3)
will use caps.local to render 'Free (local)' in the cost
column.
The badge uses theme.get_color('status_success') (same
green used by C_IN / C_NUM / other 'success' indicators).
Renders inside the existing render_provider_panel function
at src/gui_2.py:2308.
Verification:
- import src.gui_2 OK (no syntax errors)
- 44/44 vendor+capability+provider tests pass (no regressions)
- 4 audit scripts pass
When _llama_base_url is localhost/127.0.0.1, _send_llama now
calls _send_llama_native (the native /api/chat adapter)
instead of the OpenAI-compat path. The native adapter
supports Ollama's vendor-specific fields: think, images,
thinking.
Functions added (in src/ai_client.py, per the naming
convention HARD RULE on no new src/*.py files):
ollama_chat(model, messages, *, think='low', images=None,
tools=None, base_url=OLLAMA_DEFAULT_BASE_URL)
-> dict[str, Any]
_send_llama_native(md_content, user_message, base_dir,
file_items=None, discussion_history='',
stream=False, ...callbacks) -> str
OLLAMA_DEFAULT_BASE_URL: str = 'http://localhost:11434'
Implementation notes:
- requests loaded via _require_warmed('requests') (local
scope; preserves startup_speedup_20260606 invariant that
heavy SDKs are warmed on _io_pool, not imported at module
level)
- _send_llama dispatches based on 'localhost' in
_llama_base_url (same check already used by
_get_llama_cost_tracking at line 2500)
- Removed orphan def stub at the old _send_llama body (the
dead 'def _build_llama_request' that was overwritten by
the real one — a known session issue with stale set_file_slice
edits)
- Native adapter appends the 'thinking' field to history so
subsequent rounds preserve the reasoning chain
Tests:
- 7 new tests in tests/test_llama_ollama_native.py:
* ollama_chat hits /api/chat (not /v1/chat/completions)
* ollama_chat includes 'think' param in payload
* ollama_chat includes 'images' in payload
* _send_llama_native wraps ollama_chat
* _send_llama_native preserves 'thinking' field
* _send_llama routes localhost to native (no openai client)
* _send_llama keeps openai path for non-local (no POST)
- Updated test_send_llama_ollama_backend in test_llama_provider.py
to mock the native path (was: mocked openai-compat; now:
mocked requests.post)
- 103/103 vendor+tool+provider+import-isolation tests pass
(no regressions; +7 new tests this commit)
- 4 audit scripts pass
User requested re-sequencing of t3_7 (Adaptation 8: 'cost
panel: Free (local) for localhost') which was previously
cancelled because it requires the caps.local field that
Phase 4 t4_1 adds. Instead of cancelling, the task now lives
in the Phase 4 block at its natural position (after t4_1 +
t4_6, both pending). Per the user's reminder: a blocked task
naturally belongs in a later phase.
State changes:
- Phase 3 t3_7: cancelled -> moved (marker comment only)
- Phase 4 t3_7 (new entry): pending with description noting
blocked_by = t4_1 + t4_6
- Fixed unescaped '\\\$' in t3_6 description (was breaking
the state.toml parser; introduced earlier in the same
session by an accidental '\' string)
- Phase 3 effective completion: 7 of 8 adaptations
shipped (t3_1, t3_2, t3_3, t3_4, t3_5, t3_6, t3_8) +
t3_9 checkpoint. t3_7 moved to Phase 4 = 1 task remaining
in the follow-up track's Phase 3 set.
state.toml now parses cleanly (36 tasks).
Verification: 65 vendor + tool + provider + import-isolation
tests pass; no regressions.
Task t3.3 (stream progress) + t3.4 (fetch models) of the follow-up
track's Phase 3. These were originally deferred in commit
26becf2b; both fit in this session after the side-track report
was written.
t3.3 (stream progress):
- _on_ai_stream now also sets self._ai_status = 'streaming...'
when caps.streaming is True (or vendor un-registered)
- The 3 'done' / 'error' event dispatches in _handle_generate_send
reset self._ai_status accordingly so the status bar doesn't
get stuck on 'streaming...'
- The 'streaming...' text is already rendered in the post-FX
status bar via theme.render_post_fx in gui_2.py:1030
(ai_status field), so no GUI changes needed
- Local import of get_capabilities inside _on_ai_stream to
avoid loading vendor_capabilities at module level (heavy SDK
isolation invariant from startup_speedup_20260606)
t3.4 (fetch models iff model_discovery):
- Line 1860 (_init_ai_and_hooks / _refresh_from_project):
_fetch_models call is now gated on caps.model_discovery.
If False, all_available_models stays empty (no network call).
- Same pattern applied at the other 2 call sites
(start_warmup line 2284, current_provider setter line 2429).
The edits were applied (tests pass) but the line numbers in the
original audit had drifted; the gating is now in all 3 sites
with the same try/except pattern.
Test results: 53 tests pass (Minimax + Grok + Llama + DeepSeek + Gemini
CLI + tool_loop + openai import + audit scripts).
t3.7 ('Free local' for localhost) remains DEFERRED: requires the
caps.local field (Phase 4 t4.1). Documented in deferred_work
section of state.toml.
Phase 3 (UX adaptations 2-9) is now marked completed with the
note that 4 of 8 were applied (#2 tools, #3 cache, #6 max
tokens = context_window, #9 cost '-'). 1 (#7 cost estimate)
was already done in parent Phase 5. 3 were cancelled with
rationale:
- #4 stream progress: needs NEW UI element
- #5 fetch models: needs NEW Refresh models button
- #8 free local: requires caps.local field (Phase 4 t4_1)
The 3 cancelled items + the secondary cost display in
render_mma_usage_section (1-liner that would need
restructuring) are documented in the commit body of
26becf2b and the state.toml task descriptions.
The phase checkpoint is commit 43182af (the empty
'Phase 3 partial' commit). The audit report is attached
as a git note.
state.toml updates:
- phase_3.status in_progress -> completed; checkpoint 43182af
- t3_1, t3_2, t3_5, t3_8 -> completed; commit 26becf2b
- t3_6 -> completed; no commit (already done in parent)
- t3_3, t3_4, t3_7 -> cancelled with rationale
- t3_9 -> completed; commit 43182af
- phase_4.status pending -> in_progress (next)
5 of 8 Phase 3 tasks shipped (or marked as already-done).
The remaining 3 are real new-UI / new-field work that's
better scoped as small follow-up tracks than mid-stream
additions to Phase 3.
Phase 3 (UX adaptations 2-9) ships 4 adaptations:
- #2 tools toggle (caps.tool_calling gates the
'Active Tool Presets & Biases' panel)
- #3 cache panel (caps.caching gates the
'Cache Usage' display)
- #6 token budget max (caps.context_window caps the
max_tokens slider at the model's actual context window)
- #9 cost display (caps.cost_tracking makes per-tier +
session total show '-' instead of '\.0000')
#7 cost estimate was already done in parent Phase 5
(\ format); marked completed in the plan.
4 adaptations deferred (documented in the commit body):
- #4 stream progress: needs a NEW 'streaming...' UI element
- #5 fetch models: needs a 'Refresh models' button
- #8 free local: requires caps.local field (Phase 4)
- The secondary cost display in render_mma_usage_section
is a 1-liner that would need restructuring
Phase 3 is partially complete (4/8 adaptations + 1 already
done = 5/8). The remaining 3 are real new UI / new field
work that's better scoped as small follow-up tracks than
mid-stream additions to Phase 3.
Verification:
- 44 vendor + tool + provider + import-isolation tests pass
- No regressions
- The 4 deferred items are documented in the commit body
and the state.toml task descriptions
Commits in this phase:
- 26becf2b: apply 4 of 8 UX adaptations
NEXT: Phase 4 (Local-first + matrix v2 expansion) is now
ready to start. The Phase 4 work is:
- t4_1: Add local: bool to VendorCapabilities
- t4_2: Native Ollama adapter (in src/ai_client.py as
ollama_chat + _send_llama_native)
- t4_3: Meta Llama API adapter (in src/ai_client.py as
meta_llama_chat; DEFER if URL still 400)
- t4_4: GUI: 'Local Model' badge
- t4_5: Add 12 v2 fields to VendorCapabilities
- t4_6: Update all vendor registry entries
- t4_7: UI adaptations for new fields
- t4_8: Phase 4 checkpoint + git note
Phase 3 of the follow-up track. Applies the _get_active_capabilities()
pattern (established in parent Phase 5 adaptation #1: Screenshot
button iff caps.vision) to 4 more UI elements.
Adaptations applied:
- #2 Tools toggle: 'Active Tool Presets & Biases' panel
(line 2224) is now hidden + shows '(tools not supported
by X/Y)' hint when caps.tool_calling is False
- #3 Cache panel: 'Cache Usage' display (line 1911) now shows
'Cache Usage: N/A (not supported by X/Y)' when caps.caching
is False
- #6 Token budget max: the max_tokens slider (line 2327) now
caps at caps.context_window (was hardcoded 32768)
- #9 Cost display '-': the per-tier cost column (line 1890) +
session total (line 1894) now show '-' instead of '\.0000'
when caps.cost_tracking is False
Adaptations deferred (not in this commit):
- #4 Stream progress iff streaming: needs a NEW 'streaming...'
UI element; the codebase has no existing widget to gate.
Recommend adding a small spinner in the status bar during
active streams, gated on caps.streaming.
- #5 Fetch models iff model_discovery: do_fetch is in
app_controller.py, not gui_2.py. The 'Refresh models'
button on the provider combo could be gated here.
- #7 Cost panel: estimate: ALREADY DONE. The cost column
shows \ (Phase 0 of the follow-up inherited this
from parent Phase 5; adaptation #7 is effectively completed).
- #8 Cost panel: 'Free (local)' for localhost: requires the
caps.local field (Phase 4 t4_1). Deferred.
Side note: a secondary cost display in render_mma_usage_section
(line 5382) is unchanged; it's a 1-line function that would
require restructuring to gate. Deferred.
The 4 applied adaptations cover the patterns where the
capability matrix maps directly to an existing UI element
that can be wrapped. The 4 deferred ones require either
new UI (#4, #5) or new capability matrix fields (#8, with
Phase 4 prerequisite).
No tests broken; no imports added.
Documents the side-track surfaced during Phase 2 of
qwen_llama_grok_followup_20260611: src/models.py is bloated
with ~10 non-MMA types (Tool, ToolPreset, BiasProfile,
MCPConfiguration, ContextPreset, RAGConfig, Persona,
ExternalEditorConfig, FileItem, ThinkingSegment) that
should live in their parent modules per the HARD RULE.
The report captures:
- Evidence: which types, lines, target modules
- Why it matters: PROVIDERS move had to use __getattr__
to break a circular import that wouldn't have existed
if ToolPreset lived in src/ai_client.py
- Proposed move map (10 types)
- Prerequisites (1-6)
- Estimated scope: 3-5 days
- Open questions for the user
- Linkage to the follow-up track and the broader
deferred_work list
NOT EXECUTED. User decision: proceed to Phase 3 of the
follow-up. This report is the next agent's reference
when the namespace cleanup track is eventually picked up.
Phase 2 (PROVIDERS move out of src/models.py) is now complete.
The phase checkpoint is commit 7b24ee9 (the empty 'Phase 2
complete' commit). The audit report is attached as a git
note on that commit.
state.toml updates:
- phase_2.status pending -> completed; checkpoint_sha 7b24ee9
- t2_1 pending -> completed; commit 74c3b6b2 (tied to the
PROVIDERS move commit since the location decision was
resolved in that commit's body)
- phase_3.status pending -> in_progress (next)
5 of 5 Phase 2 tasks shipped:
- t2_1: location decision (src/ai_client.py per HARD RULE)
- t2_2: PROVIDERS moved + re-export via __getattr__
- t2_3: 4 import sites updated
- t2_4: audit script added
- t2_5: checkpoint + git note
Side-track surfaced (not in scope for Phase 2): src/models.py
is bloated with non-MMA types. Proposed as
'namespace_cleanup_20260611' track in the deferred_work
section; user to decide whether to side-track before Phase 3
or proceed to UX adaptations first.
Phase 2 ships:
- PROVIDERS lives in src/ai_client.py:56 (canonical home for
AI-client constants per the HARD RULE on src/ files)
- src/models.py keeps a __getattr__ re-export (PEP 562) for
backward compat; lazy-loaded to break the circular import
(src.ai_client imports ToolPreset/BiasProfile/Tool from
models at line 50, so a top-level 'from src.ai_client
import PROVIDERS' would deadlock)
- 4 call sites in src/app_controller.py:3093 and
src/gui_2.py:{2293,2849,5377} updated from
models.PROVIDERS to ai_client.PROVIDERS (direct lookup,
no per-call __getattr__ cost)
- Stale tests/test_provider_curation.py updated from 5 to
8 providers
- New test tests/test_providers_source_of_truth.py asserts
the re-export + object identity
- New audit scripts/audit_providers_source_of_truth.py
enforces the invariant: PROVIDERS is declared as a literal
only in src/ai_client.py
Verification:
- 63 vendor + tool + provider + import-isolation tests pass
- 5 audit scripts pass
- No regressions
Side-track surfaced (not in scope for Phase 2):
src/models.py is bloated with non-MMA types
(Tool/ToolPreset/BiasProfile/MCPConfiguration/ContextPreset/
Persona/RAGConfig/ExternalEditorConfig/ThinkingSegment/etc.)
that belong in their respective sub-system modules per the
HARD RULE. This is a separate refactor track — proposed as
'namespace_cleanup_20260611' in the follow-up track's
deferred_work section. Should be elevated to its own track
before Phase 3 (UX adaptations) to keep the codebase
maintainable.
Commits in this phase:
- 74c3b6b2: move PROVIDERS to src/ai_client.py; re-export
- 6c6a4aef: update 4 import sites
- be505605: add audit script
- <this> (empty): Phase 2 checkpoint
Phase 2 task 2.4 (the script part). The script enforces:
PROVIDERS is declared as a literal only in src/ai_client.py.
The __getattr__ re-export in src/models.py is allowed (it
lazy-imports, not a literal declaration).
Catches the literal pattern 'PROVIDERS: List[str] = ['
specifically, which the __getattr__ re-export does not
match.
OK: passes against current state where PROVIDERS is
declared only in src/ai_client.py:56.
Phase 2 tasks 2.3 (update 4 import sites) + 2.4 (audit script).
The 4 call sites in src/app_controller.py:3093 and src/gui_2.py
{2293, 2849, 5377} were using models.PROVIDERS (which still
works via the __getattr__ re-export added in the previous
commit). Updated them to use ai_client.PROVIDERS directly:
- Models.PROVIDERS goes through the lazy __getattr__ every call
(small per-call cost)
- ai_client.PROVIDERS is a direct module-level lookup
Both files already had 'from src import ai_client' at the top,
so no new imports were needed.
scripts/audit_providers_source_of_truth.py enforces the
invariant: PROVIDERS is declared as a literal only in
src/ai_client.py. Catches accidental declarations creeping
back into src/models.py or other modules. Catches the
literal pattern 'PROVIDERS: List[str] = [' specifically,
which the __getattr__ re-export in src/models.py does not
match (it's 'from src.ai_client import PROVIDERS').
All 5 audit scripts pass:
- audit_main_thread_imports.py
- audit_weak_types.py
- audit_no_models_config_io.py
- audit_no_inline_tool_loops.py
- audit_providers_source_of_truth.py (new)
63 vendor + tool + provider + import-isolation tests pass.
Phase 2 tasks 2.1 + 2.2 + 2.3a of the follow-up track.
PROVIDERS now lives in src/ai_client.py:56 (the canonical home for
AI-client-related constants per the HARD RULE on src/ files). The
list includes all 8 vendors: gemini, anthropic, gemini_cli,
deepseek, minimax, qwen, grok, llama.
Backward compat: src/models.py:PROVIDERS is exposed via a module-
level __getattr__ (PEP 562) that lazy-imports from src.ai_client.
The lazy approach was needed because src.ai_client imports
ToolPreset/BiasProfile/Tool from src.models at line 50, so a
top-level 'from src.ai_client import PROVIDERS' in models.py
would deadlock. Adding a branch to the existing __getattr__
in models.py (which also handles pydantic class factories) is
the surgical fix.
tests/test_provider_curation.py was stale (expected 5 providers
from before Qwen/Grok/Llama were added). Updated to 8.
New test: tests/test_providers_source_of_truth.py asserts:
- src.ai_client.PROVIDERS exists and matches the 8-provider list
- src.models.PROVIDERS still works (re-export)
- Both modules reference the SAME object (no drift)
Green confirmed: 4 provider tests pass.
Task 1.8 (the plan's numbering: 'Add audit script'). Audit checks
that no _send_<vendor> in src/ai_client.py contains an inline
'for round_idx in range(MAX_TOOL_ROUNDS' loop. The audit excludes
the 4 vendored-call-path vendors (anthropic, gemini, gemini_native,
deepseek) which are documented in state.toml's deferred_work
section as future work (they use their own SDKs and need
separate per-vendor conversion to OpenAICompatibleRequest).
state.toml:
- t1_7 (Apply to 4 inline-loop vendors): completed for
_send_gemini_cli only. Anthropic + Gemini + DeepSeek deferred.
- t1_8 (Add audit script): in_progress.
- t1_7 reuses commit 4748d134 (the send_func + on_pre_dispatch
refactor that introduced the new helper pattern for
vendored call paths).
OK: audit passes against the current 4 OpenAI-compat vendors
(minimax, grok, llama, qwen still uses _dashscope_call but
has no inline loop) + gemini_cli.
The follow-up track's tool-loop refactor moved
'from src.openai_compatible import send_openai_compatible,
OpenAICompatibleRequest, NormalizedResponse' to MODULE level
in src/ai_client.py. This violates the startup_speedup_20260606
invariant: heavy SDKs must not be loaded at module level because
ai_client.py is on the main thread's import chain.
src/openai_compatible.py line 5 does 'from openai import
OpenAIError, ...', so any import from it triggers the openai SDK
to load. test_ai_client_does_not_import_openai_at_module_level
guards this invariant and was failing.
Fix: move the imports back to local scope inside the function
bodies that need them:
- _default_send closure inside run_with_tool_loop
(imports send_openai_compatible)
- _send_grok (imports OpenAICompatibleRequest)
- _send_minimax (imports OpenAICompatibleRequest)
- _send_llama (imports OpenAICompatibleRequest)
- _send_gemini_cli (imports OpenAICompatibleRequest + NormalizedResponse)
Test patches: tests that previously patched
'src.ai_client.send_openai_compatible' now patch
'src.openai_compatible.send_openai_compatible' (the actual
import source). _execute_tool_calls_concurrently patches
unchanged (it's defined in src/ai_client.py itself).
Green confirmed: 62 vendor + tool + import-isolation tests
pass. 0 regressions.
Task 1.7 of the follow-up track. Extends run_with_tool_loop with
two optional parameters that let vendored call paths share the
shared loop + history + dispatch without forcing them through
send_openai_compatible:
- send_func: Callable[[int], NormalizedResponse] - vendor's own
API call (default = send_openai_compatible if not provided;
fully backward compatible)
- on_pre_dispatch: Callable[[int, list[dict]], list[dict]] -
per-vendor hook to mutate the tool-call list before dispatch
AND to capture results for the next round (e.g. Gemini CLI
sets payload = tool_results_for_cli so the next send_func
call sends the tool results back to the CLI)
_refactor _send_gemini_cli to use the new parameters. The
inline for loop + tool dispatch + history append are all
delegated to the helper. The vendor's send_func closure
handles:
- adapter.send (the CLI subprocess call)
- resp_data parsing (text + tool_calls + usage + stderr)
- events.emit for request_start + response_received
- _append_comms for IN/OUT comms logging
- The 'txt + calls -> history_add' special case
The vendor's on_pre_dispatch closure handles:
- _execute_tool_calls_concurrently (re-invoked here because
the helper's call passes raw tool_calls but the vendor
needs to mutate payload AND log results)
- _reread_file_items + _build_file_diff_text (file diff
re-read at last tool result)
- MAX_ROUNDS system message
- _truncate_tool_output
- _MAX_TOOL_OUTPUT_BYTES budget warning
- Payload mutation for the next round
Green confirmed: 53 vendor + tool tests pass (14 Gemini CLI
+ 5 tool_loop core + 1 builder + 2 send_func + 6 MiniMax +
2 Grok + 7 Llama + 9 DeepSeek + 8 others). No regressions.
Task 1.7 (apply run_with_tool_loop to anthropic + gemini + gemini_cli
+ deepseek) cannot proceed as a single task. The 4 vendors use their
own vendored call paths, not send_openai_compatible:
- _send_deepseek: requests.post with custom payload + custom streaming
parser + custom comms logging + budget enforcement
- _send_gemini: google-genai SDK streaming + custom types.Tool handling
- _send_gemini_cli: subprocess JSONL parsing via GeminiCliAdapter
- _send_anthropic: anthropic SDK + custom cache control + history
trimming
run_with_tool_loop is hard-coded to send_openai_compatible. Each
vendor needs to be refactored to produce OpenAICompatibleRequest
first (analogous to how parent Phase 3 converted Grok/Llama). That's
a multi-day refactor per vendor.
Per the per-task decision protocol in conductor/workflow.md
('plan approach doesn't fit'): STOP and report. Recommendation
in the deferred_work section: split Task 1.7 into 4 per-vendor
tasks under a new 'Phase 1.5 vendor-conversion-to-OpenAICompatibleRequest'
phase. The current Phase 1 milestone ('helper exists + 3 vendors
applied') is still meaningful and worth checkpointing as-is.
Task 1.6 of the follow-up track. _send_grok and _send_llama now
share the same tool-loop helper as the rest of the vendors.
Both functions add tool-calling support that they previously
lacked (parent Phase 3 shipped them as single-shot only). The
plan's Task 1.6 title says 'add missing loop' which matches
this scope. tool_choice='auto' if tools else 'auto' matches
the MiniMax pattern.
Qwen deferral: _send_qwen uses _dashscope_call (DashScope
native SDK), not send_openai_compatible. run_with_tool_loop
hard-codes send_openai_compatible. Wiring Qwen through the
helper requires either (a) switching Qwen to OpenAI-compat
mode, or (b) adding a Qwen-specific loop variant that uses
_dashscope_call. Both are non-trivial and out of scope for
Task 1.6. Tracked as a follow-up note in the state.toml.
Module-level imports added (same pattern as the previous
commits in this track): OpenAICompatibleRequest, get_capabilities
were imported locally inside the affected functions. Moved
to module-level so the test patches and helper signature can
reference them by symbol.
Green confirmed: 51 vendor + tool tests pass.
Task 1.3 of the follow-up track. _send_minimax now uses
run_with_tool_loop with a per-round request_builder callback
that re-reads _minimax_history under _minimax_history_lock.
The plan's Task 1.3 example builds the request once before the
loop. That would break MiniMax tool flows because the API
would not see the tool results appended to _minimax_history
on later rounds. The fix: extend run_with_tool_loop's 2nd arg
to accept Union[OpenAICompatibleRequest, Callable[[int],
OpenAICompatibleRequest]] (backward compatible; static-request
vendors pass a single request). MiniMax now passes a closure
that rebuilds messages from history each round.
Reasoning extraction: MiniMax exposes its chain-of-thought via
response.raw_response.choices[0].message.reasoning_details[0].
get('text'). Lifted to a _extract_minimax_reasoning callback
passed as reasoning_extractor=... (the new parameter added
in the previous commit).
Trim callback: wraps _trim_minimax_history so it can be called
from run_with_tool_loop after each tool-result append.
Green confirmed: 51 vendor + tool tests pass (6 MiniMax + 5
tool_loop core + 1 tool_loop builder + 39 others); the new
test_ai_client_tool_loop_builder.py locks in the per-round
builder contract.
Tasks 1.1 (red) + 1.2 (green) of the follow-up track. Adds a single
shared tool-call loop in src/ai_client.py that all 8 vendor entry
points (anthropic, gemini, gemini_cli, deepseek, minimax, qwen, grok,
llama) can call instead of maintaining their own inline loop.
Function shape:
- 1-space indentation (project standard)
- 60 lines (vs ~30 lines of inline loop body per vendor)
- Operates on src.openai_compatible.send_openai_compatible
(no local import — module-level import added for the same path
used by the 4 inline-loop vendors)
- 8 vendor-specific knobs: pre_tool_callback, qa_callback,
stream_callback, patch_callback, base_dir, vendor_name,
history_lock, history, trim_func, reasoning_extractor
- Threads the asyncio.get_running_loop / RuntimeError fallback
to handle the no-event-loop case (matches the existing
inline pattern from _send_minimax)
- Uses _execute_tool_calls_concurrently (the existing concurrent
dispatcher) — no new dispatch code
Deviations from plan/Task 1.1:
- The plan's test code patched src.tool_loop.send_openai_compatible
and the plan's Task 1.3 vendor wrapper imported 'from
src.tool_loop import run_with_tool_loop'. The plan predates the
AGENTS.md HARD RULE on src/<thing>.py files; per the follow-up
track's Naming Convention section, run_with_tool_loop lives IN
src/ai_client.py. Tests patch src.ai_client.send_openai_compatible
and the vendor wrapper imports 'from src.ai_client import
run_with_tool_loop' (next task).
- Added a reasoning_extractor: Callable[[Any], str] = None parameter
to support MiniMax's reasoning_content extraction. Without this
the helper would force MiniMax to lose its reasoning prefix.
Green confirmed: 50 vendor + tool tests pass; 4 audit scripts pass.
5 Red tests in tests/test_ai_client_tool_loop.py verify the planned
run_with_tool_loop contract (no-tool-call fast path, tool-call
dispatch, max-rounds safety, history append, error tolerance).
Deviation from plan: tests patch src.ai_client.send_openai_compatible
(plan's Task 1.1 had src.tool_loop.send_openai_compatible). The plan
predates the AGENTS.md HARD RULE on src/<thing>.py files; per the
follow-up track's Naming Convention section, run_with_tool_loop lives
IN src/ai_client.py. The function body imports send_openai_compatible
from src.openai_compatible, so src.ai_client.send_openai_compatible
is the correct patch path.
state.toml: current_phase 0 -> 1, phase_1 pending -> in_progress,
t1_1 pending -> in_progress, blocked_by status
phase_6_in_progress -> phase_6_complete (parent's Phase 6
checkpointed at 064cb26).
Confirmed red: 5 ImportError against src.ai_client.run_with_tool_loop
at collection time.
The user explicitly stated 2026-06-11: 'I need a naming convention
enforce for separate files you keep introducing that are technically
part of a system or parent module.' Per AGENTS.md 'File Size and
Naming Convention' HARD RULE: new src/<thing>.py files may only be
created on the user's explicit request. All AI-client code lives
IN src/ai_client.py.
Sweep through all follow-up track files to remove the stale
references to the no-longer-planned new src/ files:
- TODO.md: t1.4 'Implement helper in src/tool_loop.py' -> '...in
src/ai_client.py'
- plan.md: 5 stale references updated (Task 4.3 title, Step 1
'Files:', Step 5 'git add', Phase 4 git note, the function
summary in Phase 1 verification)
- plan.md: 'src/llama_ollama_native.py' removed (ollama_chat and
_send_llama_native both in src/ai_client.py)
- spec.md: Phase Plan section T1.2 and T4.2/T4.3 updated to
reference src/ai_client.py
- state.toml: t1.4, t4_2, t4_3 descriptions updated
- metadata.json: new_files list shrunk (3 new src/ files removed);
verification_criteria updated to reference src/ai_client.py
functions; follow_up_audit_report reference updated to point to
the actual file (docs/reports/qwen_llama_grok_followup_audit_20260611.md)
Spec additions from the same turn (not in the previous plan version):
- Naming Convention section explicitly references AGENTS.md HARD
RULE; 'If you find yourself about to create one, ASK FIRST'
- 'Non-Goals' section now lists 8 explicit non-goals (vs the
previous 4) including history management lift, reasoning
extraction lift, error classification lift
- 'Deferred Work' section documents 3 separate follow-up tracks
(namespace_cleanup_20260611, ai_client_codepath_consolidation_20260611,
mcp_architecture_refactor_20260606 [already specced])
- 'Open Questions' has 1 RESOLVED (PROVIDERS location) and 2 still
open (Meta URL verification; local model UI mode)
- 'Goals' table: 'local-backend' field added separately from
'cost_tracking' (per user feedback: distinct concept)
- 'B.1 Local-First' section: native Ollama DEFAULT for localhost
(not fallback), Meta Llama API prerequisite (verify URL first)
- 'B.2 Matrix Expansion' section: full list of 12 v2 fields + UI
adaptations for each
This is docs-only. The plan is now complete and aligned with the
HARD RULE. The next agent can pick up at Phase 1, Task 1.1 and
execute straight through.
The user called out the LLM training data bias: 'small files are
good, large files are bad.' This is wrong for production codebases.
Unreal has 15K+ line files; OS kernels, game engines, compilers all
routinely have 10K+ line files. File size is a non-issue. Cognitive
load is managed via naming, regions, and navigation tools (the
manual-slop MCP) — NOT via file splitting.
Updates:
1. AGENTS.md (master agent guidance):
- Added 'File Size and Naming Convention' section
- Added the hard rule: 'New namespaced src/<thing>.py files may
only be created on the user's explicit request. If you find
yourself about to create one, ASK FIRST.'
- Defaults: helpers and sub-systems go in the parent module
2. conductor/workflow.md (Guiding Principles):
- Removed 'Do NOT perform large file writes directamente' from
principle 7 (it was a delegating rule, but 'large file writes'
carried the propaganda)
- Added principle 8: 'File Naming Convention (HARD RULE)' that
references AGENTS.md
- Re-phrased principle 9 (Research-First) to clarify it's about
navigation efficiency, not file size
3. conductor/code_styleguides/python.md:
- Removed the 'extremely large files that violate the Anti-OOP
rule by necessity' framing
- Added the new rule about new src/<thing>.py files
4. .opencode/agents/tier3-worker.md and .opencode/agents/tier4-qa.md:
- Re-phrased 'Do NOT read full large files' to 'Use skeleton
tools to navigate any file regardless of size. File size is
not a concern; the right tools are.'
- Added the new rule about not creating new src/<thing>.py
files unless user explicitly requests it
5. conductor/tracks/qwen_llama_grok_followup_20260611/plan.md:
- Updated the 'Naming Convention' section to reference the new
'user explicit request' rule
This is docs-only. No code changes. The rule is now codified:
agents must ASK FIRST before creating new top-level src/ files.
The follow-up track had a spec but no plan. The plan is the executable
artifact — it specifies file:line refs, exact code to type, TDD steps,
and per-file atomic commits. Without the plan, the next agent cannot
implement from the spec alone.
Plan structure (5 phases, ~40 tasks):
- Phase 1: Tool loop lift (5 Red tests + helper + apply to 8 vendors +
audit script)
- Phase 2: PROVIDERS move (decide location + move + update 4 import
sites + audit script)
- Phase 3: UX adaptations 2-9 (8 separate applications of the pattern
established in parent Phase 5)
- Phase 4: Local-first + matrix v2 (12 new fields + native Ollama
adapter + Meta Llama API + Local Model GUI badge)
- Phase 5: Anthropic / Gemini / DeepSeek migration (matrix entries
for the 3 remaining providers + docs update)
Each task has:
- WHERE: exact file and (where applicable) line range
- WHAT: the specific change
- HOW: TDD step ordering (Red then Green)
- SAFETY: thread-safety, dependency-ordering, and project-invariant
constraints
The plan models the parent track's plan structure (2177 lines,
2-5 minute steps, per-file atomic commits).
Phase 6 of qwen_llama_grok_integration_20260606 ships the docs.
4 of 5 state tasks done (t6.3 CANCELLED per user directive:
'we can then doc this we're not archiving yet, if we have a follow up
track I need this one to stay up because there is still alot todo').
What shipped:
- t6.1: docs/guide_ai_client.md updated
- Overview mentions 8 providers (was 5)
- New 'Shared OpenAI-Compatible Helper' section: NormalizedResponse,
OpenAICompatibleRequest, send_openai_compatible, usage pattern
- Documents the Qwen adapter (src/qwen_adapter.py) and Llama
multi-backend state (3 backends; _get_llama_cost_tracking)
- Tests: 9 total (3 capabilities + 6 openai_compatible)
- t6.2: docs/guide_models.md updated
- PROVIDERS list: 5 -> 8 entries
- t6.4: conductor/tracks.md updated
- Status note on the qwen track entry: 50/79 tasks done;
Phase 6 in progress; NOT archiving; points to the follow-up
- t6.5: this checkpoint (active-with-follow-up, not archived)
- CANCELLED: t6.3 (no git mv to archive)
- CANCELLED: t6.4 'Recently Completed' move (track is active)
What was created in addition (not in the original Phase 6 plan):
- docs/reports/qwen_llama_grok_followup_audit_20260611.md
- Audit report explaining why a follow-up is needed
- 7 categories of gaps from the parent track
- The Tech Lead's 'footnote for now' failure mode (lessons learned)
- conductor/tracks/qwen_llama_grok_followup_20260611/
- 5-phase follow-up track: tool loop lift, PROVIDERS move,
UX adaptations 2-9, local-first + matrix v2,
Anthropic/Gemini/DeepSeek migration
- spec.md, state.toml, metadata.json, TODO.md
- Local-model-first priority per user feedback
- Wait for parent's Phase 6 to finish before starting (blocked_by)
Verification:
- 38/38 regression tests pass in batch
- No new audit script violations
- 4 new files in follow-up track: spec.md, state.toml,
metadata.json, TODO.md
- 1 new report: docs/reports/qwen_llama_grok_followup_audit_20260611.md
- 2 docs files updated: guide_ai_client.md, guide_models.md
The parent track remains ACTIVE (not archived) for the follow-up to
use as a reference. Per the user's 'there is still alot todo'.
Adds a status line to the qwen_llama_grok_integration_20260606 entry
in conductor/tracks.md noting that:
- Phases 1-5 are done; Phase 6 (docs) is in progress
- The track is NOT being archived (per user directive)
- A 5-phase follow-up track exists at
conductor/tracks/qwen_llama_grok_followup_20260611/
- An audit report is at docs/reports/qwen_llama_grok_followup_audit_20260611.md
- 50/79 tasks done; the remaining gaps are documented
Phase 6 t6.1 + t6.2 (no archive per user directive):
- docs/guide_ai_client.md: update Overview to mention 8 providers (was 5);
add 'Shared OpenAI-Compatible Helper' section explaining
src/openai_compatible.py (NormalizedResponse, OpenAICompatibleRequest,
send_openai_compatible, usage pattern); document the Qwen adapter
and Llama multi-backend.
- docs/guide_models.md: update PROVIDERS list to 8 entries (was 5).
- conductor/tracks.md: update the Qwen track entry to reflect
'50/79 tasks done; Phase 6 in progress; NOT archiving - has follow-up';
add detailed status note pointing to the follow-up track + audit
report.
- docs/reports/qwen_llama_grok_followup_audit_20260611.md: NEW report
explaining why a follow-up is needed (7 categories of gaps; the
Tech Lead's 'footnote for now' failure mode; the lessons learned).
- conductor/tracks/qwen_llama_grok_followup_20260611/: NEW follow-up
track setup (spec.md, state.toml, metadata.json, TODO.md).
5 phases: tool loop lift, PROVIDERS move, UX adaptations 2-9,
local-first + matrix v2, Anthropic/Gemini/DeepSeek migration.
Phase 6 t6.3 (git mv to archive) and t6.4 (mark Recently Completed)
are NOT applied per user directive: 'we can then doc this we're not
archiving yet, if we have a follow up track I need this one to stay
up because there is still alot todo'.
Phase 5 of qwen_llama_grok_integration_20260606 ships the foundation
for capability-driven UX. 4 of 6 state tasks done (t5.2 partial: 1 of 9
adaptations; t5.3 skipped; t5.5 cancelled: needs real API keys).
Shipped:
- t5.1: _get_active_capabilities() helper on App class
(src/gui_2.py:733) - reads the matrix for the active (provider, model)
pair; falls back to 'unregistered' VendorCapabilities if not found.
- t5.2 (partial): Adaptation 1 of 9 from spec §6 applied
- Screenshot button iff vision (render_files_and_media:3030)
- Pattern: caps = app._get_active_capabilities();
imgui.begin_disabled(not caps.<field>); ...UI...; imgui.end_disabled();
if not caps.<field>: imgui.same_line(); imgui.text_disabled('(reason)')
- t5.4: 38/38 regression batch passes
Skipped:
- t5.3: providers are exposed via centralized PROVIDERS in src/models.py
(already done in Phases 2 and 3); no per-provider gettable/callback
changes needed.
- t5.5: manual smoke test requires real API keys; user must do this
outside the agent context.
Deferred to follow-up (8 remaining UX adaptations):
- 2: Tools toggle iff tool_calling
- 3: Cache panel iff caching
- 4: Stream progress iff streaming
- 5: Fetch Models button iff model_discovery
- 6: Token budget max = context_window
- 7-9: Cost panel (3 cost_tracking states)
The pattern is established and the helper is in place. Each
remaining adaptation is a mechanical application of the same pattern
at its specific render site.
Verification: 38/38 regression tests pass.
After the end of Phase 5, only adaptation 1 of 9 from spec §6 was
applied (Screenshot button iff vision, render_files_and_media:3030).
The pattern is established; the remaining 8 are mechanical
applications of the same pattern at their respective render sites.
The follow-up track applies the wrapping at:
- tools toggle (tool_calling)
- cache panel (caching)
- stream progress (streaming)
- fetch models button (model_discovery)
- token budget max (context_window)
- cost panel (3 cost_tracking states: estimate / 'Free (local)' / '-')
The _get_active_capabilities() helper (t5.1) is already in place.
Phase 5 t5.2 partial: applied adaptation 1 from spec §6 to
render_files_and_media (src/gui_2.py:3030).
The 'Add Screenshots' button is now disabled when the active model's
capability matrix has vision=False. A tooltip-adjacent text_disabled
note shows '(vision not supported by <model>; attachments would be
ignored)' so the user knows WHY the button is disabled.
Pattern established for the remaining 8 adaptations (t5.2.2 through
t5.2.9 per spec §6):
caps = app._get_active_capabilities()
imgui.begin_disabled(not caps.<field>)
... UI ...
imgui.end_disabled()
if not caps.<field>:
imgui.same_line()
imgui.text_disabled('(reason)')
The remaining 8 adaptations (tools toggle, cache panel, stream
progress, fetch models, token budget, cost panel x3) are deferred to
a follow-up track. The pattern is established; the work is
mechanical application of it.
38/38 regression tests still pass; no behavioral change beyond the
adaptation 1 wrapping.
Phase 5 t5.1: the helper reads the capability matrix for the currently
active (provider, model) pair and returns the VendorCapabilities.
Falls back to an 'unregistered' VendorCapabilities if the pair is
not in the registry (e.g., a brand-new model name the user types in).
The 9 UX adaptations in spec §6 will call this helper to read the
capability flags (vision, tool_calling, caching, streaming, etc.)
and adapt the GUI accordingly.
Also fixed pre-existing indentation inconsistency in the App class
property methods (current_provider / current_model): the first
@property had 2-space indent but the body and subsequent def had
1-space indent (matching the project style). The mismatch was
latent; the new helper exposed it. Now uniform 1-space indent.
38/38 regression tests still pass; no behavioral change beyond the
helper addition.
As of end of Phase 4, only _send_minimax has a working tool-call loop.
Phase 3 (Grok, Llama) and Phase 2 (Qwen) entry points are single-shot;
they call send_openai_compatible once and return without executing
tool_calls. If the user notices 'tool execution doesn't work for
Qwen/Grok/Llama' after Phase 5 ships, the fix is to lift the tool
loop into a shared run_with_tool_loop() helper that wraps
send_openai_compatible. The 4 existing vendors (_send_anthropic /
_send_gemini / _send_gemini_cli / _send_deepseek) already have the
same inline duplication, so the lift would also help those.
This is a follow-up track, not in scope for qwen_llama_grok_integration_20260606.
Phase 4 t4.4: the wildcard entry 'minimax/*' was the only minimax
registration; this adds specific entries for the 4 fallback model
names returned by _list_minimax_models() at src/ai_client.py:2112
('MiniMax-M2.7', 'MiniMax-M2.5', 'MiniMax-M2.1', 'MiniMax-M2').
Each per-model entry mirrors the wildcard defaults (context_window=131072,
cost=0.20/0.20 per Mtok). Per-model entries let the matrix return
exact capability data for known models; the '*' wildcard still catches
new / future model names that aren't in the registry.
State [openai_compatible_models] minimax_models_refactored flag
flips to true (in the next state commit) -- this is the model-level
coverage the flag tracks.
The previous refactor (commit 344a66fc) dropped the tool-call loop
in _send_minimax. The original function executed tool calls when the
response had tool_calls; the refactor was single-shot. This is a real
behavior regression (tools stop working) even though the existing
tests don't catch it.
Restore the tool loop:
- For each round (up to MAX_TOOL_ROUNDS + 2), call send_openai_compatible
with tools=_get_deepseek_tools() and tool_choice='auto'
- If response has tool_calls: dispatch each via
_execute_tool_calls_concurrently (handles both async context and
sync via run_coroutine_threadsafe / asyncio.run), append each
result to _minimax_history with role='tool' and tool_call_id
- If no tool_calls: return the response text (with thinking tags for
reasoning models)
- The lock is acquired/released per iteration to avoid holding it
during the API call (which can take seconds)
Preserved:
- 10-arg signature
- _minimax_history_lock (now acquired per iteration)
- _repair_minimax_history
- discussion_history handling
- System + context message wrapping
- Reasoning content extraction (response.raw_response.choices[0].message
.reasoning_details[0].get('text', ''))
- <thinking> tags wrap on the final response
Dropped (still):
- extra_body={reasoning_split: True} (not supported by send_openai_compatible;
would be a Phase 5 adapter addition if minimax-reasoner models need it)
New line count: 75 lines (vs 41 single-shot, vs 231 pre-refactor).
Net effect: 231 -> 75 = 68% reduction; tool loop preserved.
Verification: 38/38 tests pass (no regressions).
Phase 3 of qwen_llama_grok_integration_20260606 ships Grok and Llama
provider support. 16 of 18 state tasks done (t3.4 and t3.15 cancelled:
no credentials_template.toml exists; t3.6 and t3.17 completed in
Phase 1's initial registry population).
Modules shipped:
- src/ai_client.py: state globals (_grok_*, _llama_* including _llama_base_url
and _llama_api_key), _ensure_grok_client() (OpenAI SDK with base_url
https://api.x.ai/v1), _ensure_llama_client() (OpenAI SDK with
configurable base_url + api_key for Ollama/OpenRouter/custom backends),
_send_grok() and _send_llama() (both 10-param signature matching
_send_minimax, both call send_openai_compatible), _list_grok_models()
and _list_llama_models() (return from capability registry),
_get_llama_cost_tracking() (the local-LLM signal: returns False when
base_url is localhost/127.0.0.1), 2 new branches in list_models(),
Grok + Llama state reset in reset_session()
- src/models.py: 'grok' and 'llama' added to PROVIDERS (centralized;
gui_2.py and app_controller.py import from this list)
- src/cost_tracker.py: 11 new regex pricing entries (3 Grok + 8 Llama)
Tests shipped:
- tests/test_grok_provider.py (28 lines, 2 tests)
- tests/test_llama_provider.py (68 lines, 6 tests)
- Total new tests this phase: 8 (all passing)
- Cumulative: 38 tests in batch (qwen + grok + llama + minimax + caps +
openai_compat + cost + no_top_level_sdk_imports)
Architectural correction (Grok-consulted 2026-06-11):
- Spec section 3.1.1 added: 'best API per vendor' principle
- Spec section 4.3 reverted from 'Native REST API' to 'OpenAI-Compatible'
per Grok's own confirmation: 'the OpenAI-compatible endpoint is
fully compatible and clean with no meaningful unique native surface
lost'
- Follow-up track B renamed: 'Llama Native APIs' (Ollama native +
Meta Llama API), not 'Native Vendor APIs' (no Grok native refactor
needed)
- v2 matrix field expansion documented (per Grok's recommendation):
audio, video, grounding, computer_use, local, reasoning,
web_search, x_search, code_execution, file_search, mcp_support,
structured_output
Deviations from plan (consistent with Phase 1 and Phase 2):
- Test signatures use 10-arg (real _send_minimax shape), not 12-arg
- PROVIDERS change is at src/models.py:56 (centralized), not in
gui_2.py and app_controller.py (which import from models)
- t3.4 and t3.15 (credentials template) skipped: no template file
exists; the user maintains their own credentials.toml directly
Phase 4 (MiniMax refactor) is now unblocked. The refactor replaces
~250 lines of inline OpenAI-compatible send logic in _send_minimax
with a thin wrapper around the shared send_openai_compatible helper
(per the spec §5.2 target: ~50 lines).
Side concerns for Phase 3:
1. PROVIDERS: src/models.py:56 now includes 'grok' and 'llama' alongside
the 6 existing vendors. Centralized registry; gui_2.py and
app_controller.py import from here. State tasks t3.5 and t3.16
were scoped to gui_2.py/app_controller.py but the actual change
is at the centralized registry, per the project's single-source-of-
truth pattern (per src/models.py module docstring and the Phase 5
audit script audit_no_models_config_io.py which enforces that
PROVIDERS lives in models.py).
2. cost_tracker.py: added 11 regex pricing entries (3 Grok + 8 Llama):
Grok (per xAI public pricing):
- grok-2: 2.00 / 10.00
- grok-2-vision: 2.00 / 10.00
- grok-beta: 5.00 / 15.00
Llama (per Grok's consultation: pricing varies by backend; registry
entries represent the most common case):
- llama-3.1-8b-instant: 0.05 / 0.08 (Groq)
- llama-3.1-70b-versatile: 0.59 / 0.79 (Groq)
- llama-3.1-405b-reasoning: 3.00 / 3.00 (OpenRouter avg)
- llama-3.2-1b-preview: 0.04 / 0.04
- llama-3.2-3b-preview: 0.06 / 0.06
- llama-3.2-11b-vision-preview: 0.18 / 0.18
- llama-3.2-90b-vision-preview: 0.90 / 0.90
- llama-3.3-70b-specdec: 0.59 / 0.79 (Groq)
(all per 1M tokens, USD; matches the structure of existing entries;
note: 'llama-3.1', 'llama-3.2', 'llama-3.3' are regex patterns to
allow future model variants in the same family.)
Spot check:
- estimate_cost('grok-2', 1000, 500) = 0.007 (= 0.002 + 0.005)
- estimate_cost('llama-3.3-70b-specdec', 1000, 500) = 0.000985
3. SKIPPED t3.4 and t3.15 (credentials templates): no
credentials_template.toml exists in the project (Phase 2 established
this). The user maintains their own credentials.toml directly.
4. t3.6 and t3.17 (Grok/Llama models in capability registry) were
completed in Phase 1's initial population of 22 entries
(commit 6be04bc). Grok has 4 entries (1 wildcard + 3 models);
Llama has 9 entries (1 wildcard + 8 models). Grok-2-vision has
vision=True; Llama 3.2-11b/90b vision variants have vision=True.
Verification: 38/38 tests pass in batch.
Grok's own recommendation (consulted 2026-06-11):
'xAI (Grok) | xAI official OpenAI-compatible (https://api.x.ai/v1) |
Fully compatible and clean. Supports Grok-2 + Grok-2-Vision. No
meaningful unique native surface lost by using the compatible
endpoint.'
This REVERSES the earlier 'xAI native' correction. The OpenAI-
compatible approach for Grok is the canonical full-featured path;
the implementation in Phase 3 (OpenAI SDK with base_url=https://api.x.ai/v1
+ send_openai_compatible helper) is correct as-is.
Updates to the spec:
1. §3.1.1: replaced the 'use xAI native' decision with the confirmed
per-vendor table. Qwen=Native, Grok=OpenAI-Compatible (per Grok's
own confirmation), MiniMax=OpenAI-Compatible, DeepSeek=OpenAI-
Compatible, Ollama=OpenAI-Compatible-in-v1 (native in v2),
Meta Llama API=Native (new 4th backend, follow-up), Gemini=Native
(follow-up), Anthropic=Native (follow-up). Also added Grok's
recommended v2 matrix field expansion: audio, video, grounding,
computer_use, local, reasoning/extended_thinking, web_search,
x_search, code_execution, file_search, mcp_support, structured_output.
2. §4.3: reverted from 'Grok via xAI (Native REST API)' back to
'Grok via xAI (OpenAI-Compatible) - confirmed 2026-06-11'. The
implementation does NOT need a native refactor; the OpenAI SDK
at https://api.x.ai/v1 is the canonical approach. Removed the
earlier 'caching: true' entry from the registry (since the
OpenAI-compat shim doesn't expose prompt_cache_key) and the
'no persistent client' state struct (back to the OpenAI SDK
pattern).
3. §13.1.B: renamed from 'Native Vendor APIs' to 'Llama Native APIs
(Ollama native + Meta Llama API)' and removed the Grok native
refactor item (Grok says OpenAI-compat is fine). Kept the Ollama
native + Meta Llama API items + matrix expansion. Clarified that
Grok tests do NOT need rewriting; only Llama tests get 2 more
(native Ollama, Meta Llama API).
Net effect: the Phase 3 work that just shipped (Grok+Llama Green
using OpenAI-compat shim) is CORRECT as-is. The implementation
matches Grok's actual recommendation. No code rollback needed.
Three additions to the spec, per the user's architectural correction
in this session:
1. NEW section 3.1.1: 'Architectural principle: Use the best API per
vendor' — explains why the OpenAI-compatible shim loses vendor-
specific features (xAI: prompt_cache_key, reasoning_effort, server-
side tools, cost_in_usd_ticks; Ollama: think param, images array,
thinking field, structured outputs) and states the principle:
'use each vendor's native SDK or REST API when one exists, falling
back to OpenAI-compatible only when no native option exists.'
Also notes that the capability matrix IS the aggregate tracker;
future native features go into the matrix, and the GUI filters
based on it (no per-vendor UI branches).
2. UPDATED section 4.3 (Grok): 'Grok via xAI (Native REST API)' — was
'OpenAI-Compatible'. Now specifies two native endpoints
(/v1/chat/completions and /v1/responses), the native features that
matter, the updated capability registry (caching=true for Grok
via prompt_cache_key), and a 'Phase 3 placeholder behavior' note
that this track's Phase 3 ships the OpenAI-compatible Grok as a
placeholder. The native refactor is deferred to follow-up B.
3. UPDATED section 13.1: added follow-up track B 'Native Vendor APIs
(post-OpenAI-compatible-placeholder)' which documents:
- Grok → xAI native REST
- Llama (Ollama) → native /api/chat
- Llama (Meta Llama API) → new 4th backend (deferred pending
verification of Meta's API spec; llama.developer.meta.com/docs/overview
returned 400 on fetch this session)
- Capability matrix expansion (web_search, x_search, code_execution,
file_search, mcp_support, reasoning_effort, structured_output)
- Test rewrites (mock requests.post instead of chat.completions.create)
This is a docs-only commit; no code changes. The Phase 3 Green work
continues with the OpenAI-compatible approach as planned in the
existing Red tests (t3.3 Grok + t3.14 Llama), and the follow-up track
B handles the native refactor when prioritized.
8 failing tests in 2 new files for the upcoming Grok and Llama
provider implementations.
Grok (tests/test_grok_provider.py, 2 tests):
1. test_send_grok_uses_xai_endpoint: _send_grok calls _ensure_grok_client
and uses an xAI client (base_url https://api.x.ai/v1)
2. test_grok_2_vision_supports_image: structural check that the
capability registry has vision=True for grok-2-vision (already
populated in Phase 1, so this test passes in Red phase; it is a
regression guard for the registry, not an implementation test)
Llama (tests/test_llama_provider.py, 6 tests):
1. test_send_llama_ollama_backend: _send_llama with localhost:11434
(Ollama) base URL
2. test_send_llama_openrouter_backend: _send_llama with OpenRouter URL
3. test_send_llama_custom_url: _send_llama with custom URL
(escape hatch for self-hosted)
4. test_llama_model_discovery_unions_ollama_and_openrouter: _list_llama_models
returns the 8 models from the capability registry
5. test_llama_3_2_vision_vision_capability: structural check for
llama-3.2-11b-vision-preview (passes in Red phase)
6. test_llama_local_backend_cost_tracking_false_for_ollama: the local-LLM
signal -- when base_url is localhost, _get_llama_cost_tracking()
returns False. This is the first test that exercises the local LLM
support that the capability matrix was designed for.
Both _reset_grok_state and _reset_llama_state fixtures use hasattr() to
be no-ops when the state doesn't exist (Red phase).
Test signatures use the real 10-arg _send_minimax signature, NOT the
plan's 12-arg with enable_tools / rag_engine.
Red phase: 6/8 tests fail (4 AttributeError on missing _send_*,
2 ImportError on missing _list_*/_get_*). 2/8 pass (registry structural
checks).
Next: Green phase - implement _send_grok + _ensure_grok_client +
_send_llama + _ensure_llama_client + _list_llama_models +
_get_llama_cost_tracking in src/ai_client.py.
Phase 2 of qwen_llama_grok_integration_20260606 ships Qwen support via
the Alibaba Cloud DashScope native SDK. 10 of 11 state tasks done
(t2.7 cancelled: no credentials_template.toml exists in the project;
t2.9 was completed in Phase 1's initial registry population).
Modules shipped:
- src/qwen_adapter.py (31 lines): build_dashscope_tools() (OpenAI shape
-> DashScope shape), classify_dashscope_error() (5 exception classes
-> ProviderError kinds: auth/network/quota)
- src/ai_client.py: state globals (_qwen_client, _qwen_history,
_qwen_history_lock, _qwen_region), _ensure_qwen_client() (sets
dashscope.base_http_api_url based on region: china vs international),
_dashscope_call() + _dashscope_exception_from_response() +
_extract_dashscope_tool_calls(), _send_qwen() (10-param signature
matching _send_minimax), _list_qwen_models()
- src/models.py: 'qwen' added to PROVIDERS (centralized; gui_2.py and
app_controller.py import from this list)
- src/cost_tracker.py: 7 Qwen pricing entries (regex-matched,
USD per 1M tokens)
Tests shipped: tests/test_qwen_provider.py (55 lines, 5 tests, all passing)
Total new tests this phase: 5
Total tests in new modules: 30 (qwen + minimax + capabilities +
openai_compatible + cost_tracker + no_top_level_sdk_imports)
Verification:
- 30/30 tests pass in batch
- No regressions
- 4/4 audit scripts pass (audit_main_thread_imports, audit_weak_types,
check_test_toml_paths, audit_no_models_config_io)
DashScope alignment (post-cleanup):
- Uses dashscope.common.error.AuthenticationError (real class in
1.25.21) instead of the non-existent InvalidApiKey
- Removed the InvalidApiKey -> AuthenticationError monkey-patch
- TimeoutException -> network (not rate_limit)
- ServiceUnavailableError -> network (not quota)
- _ensure_qwen_client sets base_http_api_url per region (china vs
international) per the latest DashScope API spec
Deviations from the plan:
- Test signature adapted from 12-param (plan) to 10-param (matching
real _send_minimax) -- the plan's enable_tools / rag_engine params
don't exist on _send_minimax
- PROVIDERS change is at src/models.py:56 (centralized), not in
gui_2.py and app_controller.py (which import from models)
- t2.7 (credentials template) skipped: no template file exists;
the user maintains their own credentials.toml directly
Phase 3 (Grok + Llama) is now unblocked. Local LLM support lands
in Phase 3 via Llama's Ollama backend (default base_url
http://localhost:11434/v1).
Side concerns for Phase 2:
1. PROVIDERS: src/models.py:56 now includes 'qwen' alongside the existing
5 vendors. The other 4 references to PROVIDERS in src/gui_2.py and
src/app_controller.py import from this centralized list, so this
one edit propagates everywhere. State task t2.8 was scoped to
'gui_2.py and app_controller.py' but the actual change is at the
centralized registry, per the project's single-source-of-truth
pattern (per src/models.py module docstring and the Phase 5 audit
script audit_no_models_config_io.py which enforces that PROVIDERS
lives in models.py).
2. cost_tracker.py: added 7 regex pricing entries for the Qwen models
shipped in Phase 1's vendor_capabilities.py:
- qwen-turbo: 0.05 / 0.10
- qwen-plus: 0.40 / 1.20
- qwen-max: 2.00 / 6.00
- qwen-long: 0.07 / 0.28
- qwen-vl-plus: 0.21 / 0.63
- qwen-vl-max: 0.50 / 1.50
- qwen-audio: 0.10 / 0.30
(all per 1M tokens, USD; matches the structure of existing entries)
Spot check: estimate_cost('qwen-max', 1000, 500) = 0.005 (= 0.002 + 0.003)
3. SKIPPED t2.7 (credentials template): no credentials_template.toml
exists in the project. The only credentials file is the active
credentials.toml which the user maintains directly with their own
API keys. The plan's assumption of a template file does not match
the project's actual structure. Documented in the commit log
rather than modifying the user's actual credentials.toml with a
placeholder key (which would be inconsistent with the rest of
that file's pattern of real keys). When the user obtains a
DashScope API key, they can add a [qwen] section directly.
4. t2.9 (Qwen models in capability registry) was completed in Phase 1's
initial population of 22 entries (commit 6be04bc). The 8 qwen
entries (1 wildcard + 7 specific models) are in src/vendor_capabilities.py.
Verification: 30/30 tests pass in batch
(test_qwen_provider, test_minimax_provider, test_ai_client_no_top_level_sdk_imports,
test_vendor_capabilities, test_openai_compatible, test_cost_tracker)
5 failing tests in tests/test_qwen_provider.py that establish the
core behaviors of the new Qwen (DashScope) provider:
1. test_send_qwen_routes_to_dashscope: _send_qwen calls _ensure_qwen_client
and _dashscope_call, returns the text from the DashScope response
2. test_qwen_vision_vl_model_accepts_image: when file_items contains an
image, the messages passed to _dashscope_call include the image ref
3. test_qwen_tool_format_translation: build_dashscope_tools converts
OpenAI-shaped tool dicts to DashScope shape (name/description/parameters
flat structure, not wrapped in function:)
4. test_qwen_error_classification: classify_dashscope_error maps
dashscope.common.error.InvalidApiKey -> ProviderError(kind='auth',
provider='qwen')
5. test_list_qwen_models_returns_hardcoded_registry: _list_qwen_models
returns the 7 Qwen models registered in src/vendor_capabilities.py
The autouse _reset_qwen_state fixture uses hasattr() so it is a no-op
when _qwen_client / _qwen_history do not exist (yet); this keeps the
fixture working in the Red phase.
All 5 tests fail:
- Tests 1, 2: AttributeError: src.ai_client has no _ensure_qwen_client /
_send_qwen / _dashscope_call
- Tests 3, 4: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named src.qwen_adapter
- Test 5: ImportError: cannot import name _list_qwen_models
Test signature adapted to match the real _send_minimax signature at
src/ai_client.py:2143-2148 (10 params, no enable_tools / rag_engine)
rather than the plan's 12-param signature.
Next: Green phase - implement src/qwen_adapter.py + src/ai_client.py
state + _ensure_qwen_client + _send_qwen + _list_qwen_models.
Green phase: src/openai_compatible.py now exists and all 6 Red-phase
tests in tests/test_openai_compatible.py pass.
Implementation (144 lines, 1-space indent, no comments):
Data structures:
- NormalizedResponse: frozen dataclass with text, tool_calls,
usage_input_tokens, usage_output_tokens, usage_cache_read_tokens,
usage_cache_creation_tokens, raw_response
- OpenAICompatibleRequest: regular dataclass with messages, model,
temperature=0.0, top_p=1.0, max_tokens=8192, tools=None,
tool_choice='auto', stream=False, stream_callback=None
Algorithms:
- send_openai_compatible(client, request, *, capabilities) -> NormalizedResponse
Dispatches to _send_blocking or _send_streaming based on request.stream.
Catches openai.OpenAIError and re-raises as classified ProviderError.
- _send_blocking: extracts message text + tool_calls, converts tool_calls
to dicts via _to_dict_tool_call, reads usage.prompt_tokens /
usage.completion_tokens (with int() coercion for MagicMock test compat).
- _send_streaming: iterates chunks, accumulates text parts, aggregates
tool_calls by index, fires stream_callback per text delta, reads
chunk.usage for final token counts.
- _classify_openai_compatible_error: maps RateLimitError -> 'rate_limit',
AuthenticationError/PermissionDeniedError -> 'auth', APIConnectionError
-> 'network', APIStatusError with 402/429/401-403/500-504 -> 'balance'/
'rate_limit'/'auth'/'network', BadRequestError -> 'quota', fallback
'unknown'. All use provider='openai_compatible'.
Fixed plan's code smell: removed the 'MagicMock_noop' forward-reference
class (defined after first use) and replaced with the cleaner Pythonic
pattern 'int(getattr(usage, prompt_tokens, 0) or 0)'. Real OpenAI SDK
always sets usage on responses; the defensive fallback was noise.
Function-level import of ProviderError inside _classify_openai_compatible_error
avoids any circular import risk.
6 failing tests in tests/test_openai_compatible.py that establish the
core behaviors of the new send_openai_compatible() shared helper:
1. test_send_non_streaming_returns_normalized_response: blocking call
returns text, empty tool_calls, and correct usage token counts
2. test_send_streaming_aggregates_chunks: streaming call aggregates
deltas into final text and fires stream_callback per chunk
3. test_tool_call_detection_in_response: tool_calls from the response
are converted to dicts with id/type/function/arguments fields
4. test_vision_multimodal_message: messages with multimodal content
(text + image_url) are passed through unchanged to the client
5. test_error_classification_429_to_rate_limit: RateLimitError from
openai SDK is caught and re-raised as ProviderError(kind='rate_limit')
6. test_normalized_response_is_frozen_dataclass: NormalizedResponse is
a frozen dataclass (FrozenInstanceError on attribute assignment)
All 6 tests fail with ModuleNotFoundError: No module named
'src.openai_compatible' (confirmed via pytest). The implementation file
will be created in the next commit (Green phase).
ProviderError confirmed importable from src.ai_client (no stub needed).
Green phase: src/vendor_capabilities.py now exists and all 3 Red-phase
tests in tests/test_vendor_capabilities.py pass.
Implementation:
- VendorCapabilities frozen dataclass with 12 fields (vendor, model, vision,
tool_calling, caching, streaming, model_discovery, context_window,
cost_tracking, cost_input_per_mtok, cost_output_per_mtok, notes)
- Module-level _REGISTRY dict keyed by (vendor, model)
- register() inserts/overwrites entries
- get_capabilities() returns specific entry if present, else vendor '*'
default, else raises KeyError with 'No capabilities registered' message
- list_models_for_vendor() returns sorted model names for a vendor
(excludes '*' wildcard)
Initial population (22 entries at module load):
- 1 minimax wildcard (cost: 0.20/0.20 per Mtok)
- 4 grok (1 wildcard + 3 models; grok-2-vision has vision=True)
- 9 llama (1 wildcard + 8 models; 11b/90b vision variants have vision=True)
- 8 qwen (1 wildcard + 7 models; qwen-vl-plus/max have vision=True;
qwen-audio has notes='Text-only in v1; audio input deferred')
The plan's Task 1.3 listed 22 entries but included one impossible entry
(vendor='minimax', model='grok-2-latest'). Omitted; 21 entries shipped.
Test fix: test_fallback_to_vendor_default previously used model name
'llama-3.3-70b-specdec' which IS in the registry, so the specific entry
was returned (with default cost_tracking=True), not the wildcard. Fixed
by changing to 'llama-3.3-future-unregistered' (not in registry, so
fallback fires correctly).
3 failing tests in tests/test_vendor_capabilities.py that establish the
core behaviors of the new VendorCapability matrix:
1. test_registry_lookup_known_model: registering and looking up a specific
(vendor, model) entry returns the registered entry
2. test_fallback_to_vendor_default: looking up an unregistered model returns
the vendor's '*' default entry
3. test_unknown_vendor_raises: looking up a vendor with no entries raises
KeyError with a 'No capabilities registered' message
All 3 tests fail with ModuleNotFoundError: No module named
'src.vendor_capabilities' (confirmed via pytest). The implementation file
will be created in the next commit (Green phase).
The autouse _clean_registry fixture snapshots src.vendor_capabilities._REGISTRY
before each test and restores it after, providing test isolation for the
module-level state.
Final report for the continuation session that started after the original 25-commit run closed. Covers:

What was done (14 drift clusters with detailed before/after):
- guide_hot_reload.md: example registration + trigger_key claim
- guide_app_controller.md: filename typo + fictional hot_reload() method
- guide_gui_2.md: line 155 -> 285; reload() -> reload_all()
- guide_nerv_theme.md: 5 wrong hex values; render_nerv_fx fiction; [nerv] config fiction; 0.5 Hz -> 3.18 Hz; 1.5s pulse -> no decay

Drift patterns (6, refined from the 4 in the original handoff):
1. Thread counts
2. Line numbers
3. Removed-class claims
4. Schema fields
5. NEW: Architecture rotations (the most common in this continuation)
6. NEW: Hard-coded constants described as config keys
Bucket coverage status (final):
- A (theme) DONE
- B (logging) Partial - cost_tracker and log_pruner audited; no specific doc drift
- C (commands/palette) DONE
- D (file utilities) DONE - run_powershell + CodeOutliner + FuzzyAnchor
- E (runtime/imgui) DONE
- F (MMA orchestrator) DONE
- G (beads/vendor) Partial - beads_client read, vendor_state read, dispatch line ref fixed
- H/I done in original 25-commit run
Mixed-in user files caveat (49ac008a):
- 2 user-authored files swept in from the prior_session_sepia_20260610 track
- User aware and chose to leave the commit as-is
- Theme-track agent should treat those files as owned by that track
Verbiage lesson:
- 'fictional' is a value judgment, not a technical description
- Use 'predates the refactor' / 'stale' / 'no longer matches the source' instead
- Applied in 2 user-facing doc cleanups (guide_app_controller.md:59, guide_rag.md:322)
Recommendations for the theme-track agent:
- Read guide_themes.md:87 before touching the theme system
- Do NOT touch the guide_nerv_theme.md and guide_shaders_and_window.md updates from this session (re-verified against source)
- The theme_2.py:111 comment confirms the per-frame create-and-discard FX pattern
- Run all 4 audit scripts before committing any source code change
- The markdown_table.py spec is older than the source - check both
- The _lang_map reference in the older spec is a pre-refactor claim
Open follow-ups (none blocking):
- B/G finalization
- markdown_helper.py and markdown_table.py source verification (left for theme track)
- Test count verification (322 may drift)
- Doc freshness signal

doc predated the conductor_engine refactor and described a different
architecture (MultiAgentConductor class that doesn't exist, ExecutionMode
enum that doesn't exist, _dispatch_loop background thread that doesn't
exist, ThreadPoolExecutor-backed WorkerPool that is actually a
dict[str, Thread] + lock + semaphore)
2 verbiage cleanups
- replaced 'fictional' with neutral phrasing ('predates the refactor' /
'stale') in 2 places where the prior session had used it in user-facing
doc text. Going forward doc-drift commits use neutral language;
'fictional' was a value judgment on the doc and its author, not a
technical description.
Bucket coverage after continuation: A (theme), C (commands/palette), E
(runtime/imgui), F (MMA orchestrator) fully covered. B (logging) and G
(beads/vendor) partial. H/I (mcp_client/ai_client deep) done in original
25-commit run. Still untouched: D (8 file utilities), shaders.py / bg
shader.py, summary_cache.py.
Caveat for next agent (theme track): commit 49ac008a accidentally swept in
2 user-authored files from the parallel prior_session_sepia_20260610 work
(conductor/tracks/prior_session_sepia_20260610/plan.md and
docs/superpowers/plans/2026-06-10-prior-session-sepia.md). The user is
aware and chose to leave them in that commit. The next agent should treat
those files as owned by the prior_session_sepia_20260610 track and not
modify them from the theme-track context.
