Subject: [PATCH 0001/1076] test(completions): cover concurrent routers
 claiming one completion

Adds a test asserting that when two completion routers share a single
backend, only one of them can claim a given visible completion while the
other sees an empty result. This guards against duplicate delivery when
multiple routers operate over the same storage.

Subject: [PATCH 0002/1076] feat(completions): add atomic delivery claims to
 completion store

Adds a claim_pending and resolve_claim API to CompletionStore so delivery
workers can lease pending completions without duplicate delivery. The
in-memory store uses a local lock while the driver store relies on
version preconditions for cross-process safety, and stores without
atomic claim support fail closed instead of emulating a local lock.

Subject: [PATCH 0003/1076] fix(completions): use durable claim tokens to
 reject stale settles

Claiming now goes through the store's claim_pending with a unique token and
visibility deadline instead of filtering and rewriting records in the router,
so a claim survives restarts and concurrent routers cannot double-claim.
Delivered and failed settlements resolve the token first, which prevents a
stale lease from overwriting a record another router has since claimed.

Subject: [PATCH 0004/1076] test(completions): cover reclaiming expired claims
 and rejecting stale owners

Adds a driver test asserting that an expired visibility lease can be
reclaimed by another router while the original owner can no longer settle
the completion. The claim types are re-exported so the test can reference
them directly.

Subject: [PATCH 0005/1076] fix(completions): reject claims whose visibility
 window has elapsed

Claim lookups now return nothing once a claim's visible_after time has passed, so a stale or expired claim can no longer be mistaken for a valid one. The same check is applied in both the driver and in-memory stores to keep their behaviour consistent.

Subject: [PATCH 0006/1076] test(completions): cover claim ownership and
 ordering edge cases

Adds tests asserting that a router cannot settle another router's active
claim by task id, that a stale claim receipt cannot settle a reclaimed
attempt, and that live push shares the durable claim with batch delivery.
Also verifies in-memory claims pick the oldest record before falling back
to task id tiebreaking.

Subject: [PATCH 0007/1076] feat(completions): add CompletionReceipt for
 delivery attempts

Introduce a CompletionReceipt type that pairs a task id with the
opaque token of a specific delivery attempt, so that settling a
completion requires proof of ownership rather than a bare task id.
CompletionRecord::receipt exposes the receipt when the record is
claimed.

Subject: [PATCH 0008/1076] feat(completions): add atomic single-task claim to
 completion store

Adds a claim_task method to the CompletionStore trait with a fail-closed
default and an in-memory implementation that atomically claims one pending
record for a live push. The in-memory claim path now orders candidates by
finished_at then task_id so delivery order is deterministic.

Subject: [PATCH 0009/1076] fix(completions): return receipts from router
 record and release

The router now claims a task before pushing to a live parent and returns the resulting receipt alongside the lane, so callers can settle the push with the exact token that authorized it. Release takes receipts instead of task ids and only clears the lease when the stored receipt matches, which prevents a stale settle from releasing a claim that has since been re-acquired.

Subject: [PATCH 0010/1076] feat(completions): add claim_task to driver and use
 receipts in router

The driver now implements claim_task with a version precondition so concurrent
claimers cannot both take the same pending record. The router switches from
tracking claim tokens by task id to passing CompletionReceipt values through
mark_delivered and mark_failed, which keeps the lease and receipt bookkeeping
consistent when a claim is resolved or superseded.

Subject: [PATCH 0011/1076] refactor(completions): track delivery claims by
 receipt

Delivery now identifies claimed and delivered completions by
CompletionReceipt rather than task id, so records without a receipt are
skipped instead of being reported to the router. This keeps the router's
delivery and failure bookkeeping aligned with the records that actually
carry a receipt.

Subject: [PATCH 0012/1076] test(completions): update router tests for
 receipt-based settlement

Rework the router tests to settle claims through receipts rather than task
ids, matching the API change. The forged-receipt case now asserts that a
stranger cannot ack or fail an active claim, and the followup and collect
tests check the recorded outcome via pattern matching.

Adjust the router tests to match the new claim API: the reclaimed-attempt test now expires the durable row directly and settles via receipts, and record outcomes assert the added receipt field.

Subject: [PATCH 0016/1076] test(completions): use claim receipts in driver and
 registry tests

The tests now capture the records returned by pull and claim_pending and
pass their receipts to mark_delivered and mark_failed instead of raw task
ids. This matches the API's receipt-based settlement and keeps the
assertions valid as the router interface evolves.

Subject: [PATCH 0017/1076] test(completions): cover claim failures in router
 tests

Extend the failing-second-put test double to implement claim_pending and
claim_task so claim paths can be exercised against injected disk errors.
claim_pending releases any records it claimed before returning the error,
keeping the store consistent for subsequent assertions.

Subject: [PATCH 0018/1076] fix(completions): use task id in claim token

Claim tokens were built from the completion record id instead of the
task id, so tokens could collide across records sharing an id. The
token now incorporates the task id, and RecordOutcome no longer needs
Copy since receipts are cloned rather than copied.

Subject: [PATCH 0020/1076] test(completions): cover oldest-first claim
 ordering and fix router test bindings

Added a driver test asserting that pending completions are claimed oldest-first before task id tiebreaking, and corrected router tests to borrow the outcome in a match and to bind the delivered pull result to the right call.

Subject: [PATCH 0021/1076] test(completions): cover live push claim blocking a
 second router

Adds a driver test asserting that a completion recorded as a live push by one
router is not claimable as pending by a second router sharing the same storage.

Subject: [PATCH 0022/1076] docs(completions): clarify shared-store claim
 semantics

The driver, router, and store docs now state that ordinary put is an
unconditional upsert while claim, reclaim, and settlement operations rely on
atomic row version preconditions. This corrects the earlier claim that routers
must never share a store, since independent routers can safely share a backend
that implements those claims.

Subject: [PATCH 0023/1076] test(completions): cover concurrent first-record
 claim and tombstone races

Adds router tests that interleave a first completion write with a
competing parent's claim and with a tombstone reservation, asserting the
losing writer reports an id collision or suppression and leaves the
winning parent's claim and tombstone state intact.

Subject: [PATCH 0024/1076] test(completions): scope blocking store to a
 specific task

The BlockingFirstReadStore test helper now takes the task id it should
block on instead of stalling the first read regardless of which task is
being fetched. This keeps the concurrency tests deterministic when the
router reads other records before the racing one.

This introduces `try_get` and `insert_if_absent` methods to the `CompletionStore` trait and implements them for various store types. This allows for more robust conditional creation and reading of completion records across different storage backends.

Subject: [PATCH 0026/1076] test(completions): cover unknown receipts in
 settled mark_failed

The mark_failed test now also passes a receipt for a task that was never
claimed, so the settled-record path is exercised for both stale and unknown
receipts. This guards against regressions where unknown receipts might be
returned as failures instead of being ignored.

Subject: [PATCH 0027/1076] refactor(completions): improve completion record
 handling logic

This change refactors how completion records are handled across the driver, router, and store implementations. It introduces explicit logic to handle tombstoned records and collision detection in the router, and updates the store trait to better reflect conditional creation behavior.

Adds a router test that blocks the parent marker read so a cancellation
can land while a completion is still observing the old parent state. It
asserts the completion is suppressed and never reaches the parent queue.

Subject: [PATCH 0029/1076] feat(completions): add durable parent admission
 gate leases

Introduce acquire, renew, and release parent gate operations on the
CompletionStore trait so shared durable stores can fence parent admission
across routers using backend leases. The in-memory store implements the
gate with epoch tracking, and the driver store backs it with the storage
leases primitive, failing closed when leases are unsupported.

Subject: [PATCH 0030/1076] feat(completions): add parent admission gate to
 completion router

Introduce a ParentGateGuard that serializes parent-scoped mutations in the
completion router, acquiring a lease-backed gate before recording, cancelling,
resuming, or claiming records for a parent. The gate is renewed before pushing
to the queue and released on drop, so concurrent operations on the same parent
no longer race against each other.

Subject: [PATCH 0031/1076] test(completions): cover parent gate delegation in
 blocking store

The blocking test store now implements the parent gate methods so the
cancellation test exercises the gate path through the wrapper instead of
bypassing it. The router is also built from a cloned store handle so the
same store backs both the router and the cancel router.

Subject: [PATCH 0032/1076] test(completions): forward parent gate methods in
 test stores

The in-memory test doubles implementing CompletionStore now delegate the
parent gate acquire, renew, and release calls to their inner store so the
router tests exercise the real lease behaviour instead of the trait's
default unsupported error. The ParentGateClaim type is also re-exported
from the completions module for use in these tests.

Subject: [PATCH 0033/1076] test(completions): add tracing to router
 cancellation test

Instrument the cancellation fencing test with eprintln checkpoints so the
interleaving between the stale parent-state read, the cancellation gate
attempt, and the resumed writer can be followed when the test hangs or
fails. The gate call log also records the attempt counter to make the
second gate invocation visible.

Subject: [PATCH 0034/1076] chore(tasks): add debug logging to parent gate
 lifecycle

Added eprintln tracing around parent gate renewal and release in the router, and instrumented the cancellation test to log when the stale marker read returns and when record completes. These logs help diagnose the timing of gate handoff during cancellation.

Subject: [PATCH 0035/1076] chore(tinyagents-tasks): remove debug prints from
 parent gate tests

Strip the eprintln tracing from the parent gate guard and its test
double, and gate the blocking marker read on a read counter so only the
first read blocks. The prints were leftover debugging noise, and the
counter keeps the test deterministic without relying on log output.

backend. This lets the store participate in per-scope storage setup and
keeps the backend and scope available for later use.

Subject: [PATCH 0039/1076] fix(tinyagents-tasks): fail closed when durable
 completion store setup fails

The completion store opener now takes a storage backend and scope and
returns a result instead of silently falling back to in-memory storage.
Callers that want local storage must construct an in-memory store
explicitly, so a failed shared-store setup is no longer masked.

Subject: [PATCH 0041/1076] feat(completions): thread parent gate claims
 through store operations

The CompletionStore trait now takes a ParentGateClaim on insert_if_absent,
claim_pending, and claim_task so stores can reject writes from a stale parent
epoch. The in-memory implementation accepts the gate without using it yet, and
the driver test now covers both a current-epoch create that succeeds and a
stale-epoch create that fails without disturbing existing records.

Subject: [PATCH 0043/1076] feat(completions): fence completion writes on
 parent gate lease

Completion mutations now resolve the document store through the parent
admission lease and reject the operation if the lease was lost or its
epoch changed. This prevents a driver that lost its parent gate from
continuing to write completion records.

Subject: [PATCH 0044/1076] fix(completions): pass parent gate claim to store
 operations

The router now forwards the parent gate claim into the completion store's
insert, claim, and claim_pending calls so those operations can validate the
gate. A claim accessor was added to ParentGateGuard to expose it.

Subject: [PATCH 0045/1076] test(completions): thread parent gate through
 driver store tests

Updated the driver store tests to acquire and pass a parent gate claim
into insert_if_absent and claim_pending, matching the new store API.
The expired-claim test now releases the first gate before the second
router takes over so the reclaim path is exercised as intended.

Subject: [PATCH 0047/1076] feat(completions): require fencing capability in
 driver store

The driver completion store now rejects backends that do not advertise the
fencing capability, so lease-based coordination cannot be silently enabled on
storage that lacks the guarantee. Both constructors perform the check before
building the store.

Subject: [PATCH 0048/1076] feat(completions): add epoch-fenced writes to
 completion store

Introduces a put_fenced method on CompletionStore so durable writes are
guarded by a parent gate claim. The driver now rejects unguarded puts and
performs fenced writes with an optimistic version precondition, while the
in-memory store delegates to its existing put.

Subject: [PATCH 0049/1076] refactor(completions): pass parent key explicitly
 to put_fenced

The fenced write path now takes the parent key as a separate argument
instead of reading it from the completion record, so callers can fence
against a parent tenure that differs from the record's own parent key.
All implementations and the trait default were updated to match.

Subject: [PATCH 0050/1076] fix(completions): fence router writes with parent
 gate claims

Router writes now go through put_fenced with an acquired ParentGateGuard so
concurrent parent cancellation cannot race with record updates. Parent keys
are also derived from marker IDs when missing, and parent markers now carry
their parent key so fenced writes resolve correctly.

Subject: [PATCH 0052/1076] refactor(completions): rename store opener and
 route tests through fenced puts

The registry helper is renamed to open_driver_completion_store since it no longer falls back to in-memory storage. Driver tests now insert records through a shared put_record helper that derives the parent key and applies the parent gate, so the tests exercise the same fenced write path as production code.

Subject: [PATCH 0053/1076] refactor(completions): drop unused Repo field from
 driver store

The driver completion store no longer constructs or holds a Repo for the
completions collection, since all access goes through the document store
directly. The re-export in lib.rs was updated to match the remaining
public API.

Subject: [PATCH 0054/1076] refactor(completions): thread parent gate through
 resolve_claim

The resolve_claim trait method and its in-memory implementation now accept a parent key and a ParentGateClaim, so callers can pass the parent gate context needed for atomic delivery claims. The default trait body ignores the new arguments and still reports that the store does not support atomic delivery claims.

The driver's resolve_claim now takes a parent key and gate, resolving
the completion row through fenced_docs instead of the raw docs handle so
claim resolution respects the parent's fencing state.

The router tests build CompletionReceipt values by hand, so the new

unknown receipts to keep compiling. The values are placeholders that do
not affect the assertions being exercised.

Subject: [PATCH 0059/1076] fix(completions): acquire parent gate before
 resolving claims

Claim resolution now takes the parent gate so that releasing or
delivering a task cannot race with concurrent parent-level operations.
The router acquires the gate before each resolve_claim call and skips
records whose gate cannot be acquired.

Subject: [PATCH 0060/1076] test(completions): update router test doubles for
 parent gate args

The `resolve_claim` signature now takes a parent key and parent gate, so the
blocking and failing test stores were updated to forward those arguments to the
inner store.

Subject: [PATCH 0061/1076] test(completions): update driver tests for new
 resolve_claim signature

The resolve_claim calls in the driver tests now pass the parent name and
gate alongside the token, matching the updated API. The second gate is
also hoisted so it can be reused across the stale-owner assertions.

Subject: [PATCH 0062/1076] fix(completions): correct argument order and
 qualify parent lookup

The driver passed the collection name twice to query_all, dropping the
parent key filter argument. The router now calls parent_from_marker_id
through Self so the associated function resolves correctly. Tests were
updated to acquire a parent gate and pass it to claim_pending.

Subject: [PATCH 0063/1076] test(completions): cover stale claim fencing across
 gate takeover

Add a driver test asserting that a claim prepared under an old parent
gate cannot be persisted after a new owner takes over the gate, and that
the stored record stays untouched when the fenced write is rejected.
Also fix the existing conditional-create test to use a gate for the
record's own parent so it exercises the intended conflict.

Subject: [PATCH 0064/1076] feat(completions): keep deleted parents closed
 across compaction and restart

Added a ParentDeleted lifecycle marker and a delete_parent entry point so a
deleted parent thread stays closed durably. Parent markers are now exempt from
completion compaction and carry a parent epoch, so late children remain
suppressed after a restart instead of being admitted once the marker expires.

Subject: [PATCH 0065/1076] fix(completions): scope claim operations to the
 parent epoch

Claim, resolve, and in-memory store operations now take a parent_epoch and
reject records whose epoch does not match, so stale claims from a previous
parent generation can no longer be delivered. The in-memory resolve path
previously ignored the parent key entirely and now validates it too.

Subject: [PATCH 0066/1076] fix(completions): thread parent epoch through claim
 and resolve calls

Claim and resolve operations now pass the parent epoch so that stale
claims from a previous parent generation cannot be delivered or
released against a newer one. The router also replaces the parent
cancellation check with an admit_child_locked call that returns the
current epoch.

Subject: [PATCH 0067/1076] feat(completions): reject queued completions from
 stale parent generations

Adds a parent_generation_admitted check so hosts can discard queued
completion entries whose parent epoch no longer matches the open parent
lifecycle, covering races with stop, delete, or reopen. A test exercises
the cross-router close and reopen case.

+# Runtime and session host seams
+
+Issue: `senamakel/tinyagents#63`, under `tinyhumansai/openhuman#8088`.
+
+This plan moves generic session behavior into TinyAgents and leaves OpenHuman
+with adapters for tenant authority, SaaS storage leases, approvals, progress,
+memory, and learning. Implementation starts only after the integrated
+`senamakel/tinyagents#60` changes are merged into this fork branch and the
+affected baseline has been re-audited. The starting worktree currently contains
+the `#57`, `#59`, and `#67` changes; do not recreate their types or lifecycle.
+
+The source state already provides `SessionRef`, `TranscriptMeta`,
+`RebindableSessionStores`, `WorkspaceStores`, `CommitReceipt`,
+`SessionHooks::after_commit`, harness `TurnSummary` and `ToolOutcomeRecord`,
+runtime tool admission, and harness `ToolSnapshot`. In particular,
+`ToolSnapshot::new` rejects different specs sharing a name; it is not the
+first-wins deduplicator this migration needs.
+
+## Boundaries and invariants
+
+* Keep session identity and transcript repair in `tinyagents-session`; runtime
+  lifecycle and generic tool policy in `tinyagents-runtime`; context
+  configuration and compaction strategy in `tinyagents-harness` (the
+  `#7390`/`#8088` audit found no upstream equivalent).
+* No `tinyagents-harness` or `tinyagents-session` dependency on runtime, no
+  runtime re-export of `ToolSnapshot`, and no compatibility shims in the host.
+  Runtime may use the already existing harness snapshot type.
+* Tenant authority is resolved by the host. A session key, model argument,
+  transcript metadata field, or tool argument never selects a tenant or store
+  scope.
+* Preserve frozen prompt and recorded-tool resume behavior. Persisted tools
+  remain available through deferred executors when the host can rebuild them;
+  explicit per-turn overrides and host-only belts remain authoritative.
+* Preserve two distinct rebind behaviors: generic retained `AgentStores`
+  handles keep following a provider rebind; an explicit host lease pins the
+  backend and tenant admitted when that lease was opened. New handles opened
+  after rebind use the new backend. Rebinding never changes tenant scope.
+* Preserve every existing test assertion unless behavior is deliberately
+  retired by this issue. Add regression tests that fail against the old
+  behavior before implementing each fix. Keep Rust tests in sibling
+  `*_tests.rs` files, declared using `#[cfg(test)]` and
+  `#[path = "<module>_tests.rs"]`; each test file begins with `use super::*;`.
+
+## Proposed public seams
+
+These signatures are the intended API shape. Error and lifetime details should
+follow each crate's existing conventions; avoid adding new dependency edges.
+
+### Transcript identity and repair (`tinyagents-session`)
+
+In `crates/tinyagents-session/src/transcript/session.rs`, add a legacy identity
+constructor alongside `SessionRef::{root,scoped,child_of}`:
+
+```rust
+impl SessionRef {
+    pub fn from_legacy_stem(
+        legacy_stem: &str,
+        session_key: impl Into<String>,
+        agent_id: impl Into<String>,
+    ) -> Self;
+}
+```
+
+The builder must preserve the old root and `parent__child` stem mapping for
+the existing legacy host format, while representing the identity as a normal
+`SessionRef`. Test the actual old stem-to-reference mapping and verify that
+the new `session_stem` resolves to the same persisted transcript. Do not infer
+tenant scope from the legacy string. Keep `TranscriptMeta` as the wire record;
+add a constructor/builder in `transcript/types.rs` that accepts a
+`SessionRef` and copies `session_id` and `parent_session_id` while requiring
+callers to provide the existing descriptive metadata fields. Do not change
+the serialized field names or defaults.
+
+Add `repair_orphaned_tool_head(&mut Vec<TranscriptMessage>)` in
+`transcript/adoption.rs` (or an adjacent `transcript/repair.rs` if that keeps
+the existing adoption API clearer), exported from `transcript.rs`. It removes
+only the incomplete trailing assistant tool-call row and unmatched trailing
+tool-result rows that cannot be replayed without their call; complete earlier
+tool rounds remain byte-for-byte/semantically unchanged. It must handle both
+typed transcript rows (`tool_calls`, `tool_call_id`) and the legacy envelopes
+already normalized by `TranscriptMessage::normalized`. Centralize the rule so
+the two OpenHuman replay paths can call the same implementation.
+
+### Host identity resolution and store leases (`tinyagents-session`)
+
+Keep authority resolution at the host boundary and keep generic rebind behavior
+intact. Add an explicit lease wrapper in `port/types.rs`:
+
+```rust
+#[derive(Clone)]
+pub struct SessionStoreLease {
+    stores: AgentStores,
+}
+
+impl SessionStoreLease {
+    pub fn stores(&self) -> &AgentStores;
+}
+```
+
+Add `SessionStoreProvider::lease_for_agent(&self, agent_id: &str)` with a
+default implementation that opens `try_for_agent(agent_id)` once and wraps the
+returned handles. `RebindableSessionStores` overrides it by snapshotting the
+current `DriverSessionStores` and returning ordinary driver-backed handles,
+not the live forwarding wrappers. Keep `for_agent` and existing handles
+live-following `rebind` exactly as they are today. Add a provider capability
+for resolving the `SessionRef` only after the host has resolved its actor
+identity; prefer a host-supplied resolver in runtime (below), and do not put a
+tenant type or tenant lookup implementation in TinyAgents.
+
+For backend-specific leased opens, provide a named provider constructor or
+method that retains the caller-supplied backend and stable `Scope` for the
+lease lifetime. Rebind may update the provider's current backend for future
+opens, but must not mutate an already returned lease. `WorkspaceStores::open`
+continues to cache its ordinary workspace-bound handles; it must not become a
+global mutable routing point.
+
+### Post-commit bridge (`tinyagents-runtime`)
+
+Add `PostCommitSink<C>` next to `SessionHooks` in `runtime/hooks.rs`:
+
+```rust
+#[async_trait]
+pub trait PostCommitSink<C: Clone + Send + Sync + 'static = ()>: Send + Sync {
+    async fn after_commit(&self, receipt: CommitReceipt<C>) -> Result<(), RuntimeError>;
+}
+```
+
+The runtime invokes installed sinks once, after durable transcript commit, and
+does not turn sink errors or cancellation into turn failure. Supply a no-op
+default and builder registration that composes multiple sinks in registration
+order. Preserve `SessionHooks::after_commit` compatibility internally during
+the migration, then remove the duplicate callback only if all in-repo call
+sites are migrated in this issue. Add a generic adapter that builds
+`tinyagents_harness::host::TurnSummary` and content-free `ToolOutcomeRecord`
+from `CommitReceipt`; it may hash serialized arguments but must not retain
+arguments or tool output. This adapter reports facts; OpenHuman supplies the
+progress fence, memory ingest, and learning sinks.
+
+### Tool surface policy and durable extensions (`tinyagents-runtime`,
+`tinyagents-harness`)
+
+In `runtime/tool_registration.rs`, add an explicit policy value:
+
+```rust
+#[derive(Clone, Debug, Default)]
+pub struct HostOnlyToolPolicy {
+    pub names: HashSet<String>,
+    pub allow_empty: bool,
+}
+```
+
+Integrate it with `ToolAdmission` so a host-only turn admits exactly the
+host-provided belt, and still invokes the host's own gate for every admitted
+tool. Empty belt is deny-all. Do not implement OpenHuman approvals or security
+rules here. Extract first-wins visible-spec deduplication as a separate helper
+that preserves input order and the original winning `Arc<ToolSpec>` allocation.
+Keep the current `ToolSnapshot::new` conflict rejection for callers that
+require validation. Before deduplication, drop synthesized declarations whose
+names collide with durable host declarations, so durable declarations win.
+
+Extend the existing harness-owned `ToolSnapshot` in
+`harness/src/tool/snapshot.rs` with a typed opaque extension map:
+
+```rust
+pub struct ToolSnapshot {
+    specs: Vec<ToolSpec>,
+    exact: bool,
+    extensions: BTreeMap<String, serde_json::Value>,
+}
+
+impl ToolSnapshot {
+    pub fn with_extension(
+        self,
+        key: impl Into<String>,
+        value: serde_json::Value,
+    ) -> Self;
+    pub fn extension(&self, key: &str) -> Option<&serde_json::Value>;
+    pub fn extensions(&self) -> &BTreeMap<String, serde_json::Value>;
+}
+```
+
+Define a versioned snapshot record for transcript persistence. Decode the
+existing array-of-specs representation as version 0, and encode the versioned
+record only when extensions are present; preserve exactness semantics and
+round-trip extension values. Extension keys are namespaced strings, values
+are inert JSON, and the harness does not interpret Composio/REPL payloads.
+Update `retaining` and `with_retained` to preserve extensions. Explicit
+`Turn::tools` overrides remain authoritative and are not augmented from a
+recorded snapshot.
+
+### Context configuration (`tinyagents-harness`)
+
+Move the generic `ContextConfig`, `CompactionStrategy`, and
+`CompactionSettings` from OpenHuman's `config/schema/context.rs` into a
+harness-owned config module. Preserve every existing field, serde alias,
+environment/config name mapping, and default, including `task_state`/`typed`/
+`s4` and `summary`/`free_form`/`s0`. Keep the generic micro-compaction
+keep-recent default in harness rather than reaching into
+`crate::agent::context`. Existing TOML remains deserializable with identical
+meaning. Product-only settings may remain host-side only when their policy
+boundary is documented and the generic harness types do not import OpenHuman.
+
+### Host integration contract (future OpenHuman #212)
+
+The follow-on host adapter will implement `SessionIdentityResolver` in
+OpenHuman and will return a `SessionRef` plus host-owned actor metadata after
+resolving the authenticated `CoreContext`. The planned contract is:
+
+```rust
+pub struct SessionIdentity {
+    pub session: SessionRef,
+    pub agent_id: String,
+}
+
+pub trait SessionIdentityResolver: Send + Sync {
+    fn resolve(&self, request: &SessionIdentityRequest)
+        -> Result<SessionIdentity, RuntimeError>;
+}
+```
+
+`SessionIdentityRequest` carries only logical thread/task and parent-session
+inputs. It carries no authority-bearing tenant field. The host uses the
+resolved actor context to select a `SessionStoreLease` separately. This
+contract is intentionally documented now; OpenHuman adoption/deletions are
+outside this TinyAgents-only plan.
+
+## TDD work sequence
+
+Each step is independently reviewable. For each behavior, first add the
+described failing test, run only that focused test to observe the regression,
+then implement the smallest API/code change and rerun it. Keep existing
+assertions and run the named crate's full tests after each API family. No host
+source edits are part of this plan.
+
+### 1. Repair orphaned tool-call transcript tails
+
+**Files:** `crates/tinyagents-session/src/transcript/adoption.rs`,
+`transcript.rs`, and new `transcript/adoption_tests.rs` (or
+`transcript/repair_tests.rs` if a new module is chosen).
+
+Add cases for an orphan assistant call followed by no result, a partial set of
+results, a complete call/result round, and a legacy-envelope form. Assert the
+helper removes only the incomplete head and preserves the complete prefix.
+Run `cargo test -p tinyagents-session orphaned_tool_head -- --exact` (adjust
+the filter to the final test name), verify red, implement repair, then run
+`cargo test -p tinyagents-session`.
+
+### 2. Build identity and metadata from durable session references
+
+**Files:** `crates/tinyagents-session/src/transcript/session.rs`,
+`transcript/types.rs`, their sibling `session_tests.rs` and
+`transcript/transcript_tests.rs`.
+
+Pin the legacy root and nested `parent__child` mapping from the host's historic
+`{prefix}__{key}` encoding. Assert the result has stable `session_id`, correct
+`parent_session_id`, and round-trips the old transcript to the same session
+reference without rewriting its legacy file. Add metadata constructor tests
+for roots and compacted generations while comparing serialized JSON field
+names/default omission to the existing format. Run focused tests red, then
+`cargo test -p tinyagents-session transcript`.
+
+### 3. Add explicit pinned store leases without changing live rebind
+
+**Files:** `crates/tinyagents-session/src/port/{mod.rs,types.rs,drivers/rebound.rs,workspace.rs}`
+and sibling `rebound_tests.rs`, `workspace_tests.rs`, and
+`testkit/conformance.rs` as needed.
+
+First add a regression where (a) a retained generic handle writes before and
+after rebind and follows the provider, (b) a lease opened before rebind
+continues reading/writing its original backend, and (c) an open after rebind
+uses the new backend. Run two tenant scopes against one backend and assert no
+agent/key visibility crosses scopes; also assert a registry rebind leaves
+unregistered providers unchanged. Then add the lease API and run both
+`session_store_isolation_conformance` and the full crate tests. Preserve the
+existing tests that assert retained live handles follow rebind and pinned
+host-opened handles keep their backend; neither assertion may be silently
+weakened.
+
+### 4. Add post-commit sink and generic summary adapter
+
+**Files:** `crates/tinyagents-runtime/src/{hooks.rs,session.rs,types.rs}` and
+new `hooks_tests.rs`/existing runtime sibling tests.
+
+Use a recording sink to assert one call after a successful durable append and
+after a replacement/generation commit; assert zero calls for pre-commit
+failure. Use a failing sink and assert the committed turn remains successful.
+Assert summary tool outcomes contain name, digest, success/failure class, and
+duration but no argument or result payload. Run focused tests red, implement
+sink composition in registration order, then `cargo test -p tinyagents-runtime`.
+
+### 5. Move tool policies and preserve durable tool declarations
+
+**Files:** `crates/tinyagents-runtime/src/{tool_registration.rs,managed_tools.rs}`,
+`crates/tinyagents-harness/src/tool/{snapshot.rs,mod.rs}`, plus sibling
+`tool_registration_tests.rs`, `managed_tools_tests.rs`, and
+`snapshot_tests.rs`.
+
+Test first-wins dedup by pointer identity and order; synthesized collision
+with a durable host declaration; host-only empty deny-all; host-only exact
+name admission with the host gate still consulted; snapshot extension JSON
+round-trip; old array snapshot decode; `retaining`/`with_retained` extension
+preservation; and exact override remaining unaugmented on resume. Add the
+behavioral failing tests first, keep the existing conflict-rejection tests,
+then implement and run `cargo test -p tinyagents-runtime -p tinyagents-harness`.
+
+### 6. Move context configuration into harness
+
+**Files:** `crates/tinyagents-harness/src/config/` plus its sibling tests and
+`crates/tinyagents-harness/Cargo.toml` only if existing dependencies require
+an already available serde/schema dependency. Update harness compaction
+consumers and delete only the generic duplicate implementation from the host
+in this upstream repo (there should be no OpenHuman code changes here).
+
+Add TOML deserialization regression fixtures for every existing setting,
+aliases, default values, zero trigger normalization, strategy parsing, and
+serialization compatibility before moving the type. Verify old TOML fixtures
+still deserialize to equal values; verify the harness no longer has an
+OpenHuman-style backedge. Run focused tests red, then
+`cargo test -p tinyagents-harness config` and
+`cargo test -p tinyagents-runtime`.
+
+### 7. Reconcile full crate and workspace integration
+
+Update remaining TinyAgents call sites to the new upstream-owned APIs without
+adding a runtime-to-host or harness-to-runtime dependency. Re-run all
+previously affected tests from the audit, including tenant routing, recorded
+tool resume, host-only tool gating, transcript adoption, workspace isolation,
+and post-commit behavior. Do not delete a test merely because an assertion
+currently disagrees; map it to the explicit live-handle or lease contract
+above.
+
+Run the final gates from the TinyAgents workspace root:

+
+## Risks to resolve during implementation
+
+* A legacy stem can be lossy if it is parsed without the original key/agent
+  inputs. The builder must accept those inputs and use the old stem only to
+  represent parent lineage; it must not pretend arbitrary old strings are
+  reversible.
+* Lease wrappers must snapshot both backend and tenant scope atomically.
+  Capturing a backend while deriving scope later would permit cross-tenant
+  reads after actor context changes.
+* Snapshot encoding must preserve existing transcript records and exact
+  override behavior. Additive extension metadata must not change model-facing
+  tool specs or silently revive revoked tools.
+* `PostCommitSink` errors occur after the durable boundary and therefore can
+  only be reported; they cannot veto or roll back the committed turn.
+* `ContextConfig` has product-only fields mixed with generic context knobs.
+  Before moving each field, document its owner and preserve existing config
+  aliases/defaults. Do not leave a generic implementation or dependency
+  backedge in OpenHuman as a compatibility shim.
+
+This document is the plan phase for issue #63. It does not claim the issue is
+implemented or complete. Open the upstream PR against `senamakel/tinyagents`
+with base `epic/8088-tinyagents-slim` only after implementation, review, and
+the required workspace gates pass; do not squash the individual commits.

Subject: [PATCH 0069/1076] test(completions): thread parent_epoch through
 router test stores

Updated the test doubles in router_tests.rs to match the new parent_epoch
parameter on the completion store claim methods. The forwarding calls now
pass the epoch through so the tests exercise the same signature as the
production implementation.

 command

The plan now runs the orphaned_tool_head test without the exact filter, since the final test name is not yet fixed. This avoids a placeholder instruction that would need editing later.

Subject: [PATCH 0074/1076] feat(completions): add explicit local-memory
 fallback for store open

Adds a CompletionStoreFallback policy so callers opening a driver-backed
completion store must state whether a failed durable open may fall back to
process-local memory. Shared scopes fail closed, while explicitly local
scopes can opt into ephemeral storage instead of erroring out.

Subject: [PATCH 0075/1076] feat(tinyagents-tasks): scope delivery leases by
 tenant

Delivery gates now key on a tenant/profile namespace in addition to the
thread key, so sessions in different tenants no longer contend for the
same slot. Session aliases are mapped to their stable thread so busy
lookups resolve across both identities.

Subject: [PATCH 0076/1076] feat(completions): scope thread delivery leases by
 tenant

Delivery leases and parent-busy gates now key on a tenant-qualified
thread key so identical thread ids in different tenants no longer
block each other. The Busy outcome was renamed to ParentBusy and a new
LeaseHeld outcome distinguishes an already-owned delivery lease from a
busy parent.

Subject: [PATCH 0078/1076] docs(plans): revise runtime session host seams plan

Rework the plan to drop the raw-stem identity override in favor of canonical SessionRef construction plus one-time read-only legacy adoption, and narrow the orphan repair helper to leading tool rows after the system prefix. Add the post-commit observation type, host-only tool policy, typed snapshot extensions, and the session identity resolver seam with its tests.

 ### Transcript identity and repair (`tinyagents-session`)
 
-In `crates/tinyagents-session/src/transcript/session.rs`, add a legacy identity
-constructor alongside `SessionRef::{root,scoped,child_of}`:
+Do not add a raw-stem override or `SessionRef::from_legacy_stem`. The
+canonical stem builder in `transcript/session.rs` sanitizes and digests
+components, so it cannot reproduce arbitrary historical filenames. Build the
+canonical identity from the stable logical thread key and resolved agent id
+using the existing `SessionRef::scoped` or `SessionRef::child_of`, then use
+`TranscriptLocator::adopt_legacy` to read old timestamped stems and adopt
+their rows into that canonical identity. Adoption is one-time and read-only
+with respect to the old files. `TranscriptTarget::for_session` and
+`SessionBuilder::session` already derive `session_id` and `parent_session_id`;
+only add a `TranscriptMeta` constructor if it removes a real duplicate without
+changing the wire schema.
+
+Add the shared helper to the exact existing module
+`crates/tinyagents-session/src/transcript/adoption.rs` and export it from
+`transcript.rs`:
 
 ```rust
-impl SessionRef {
-    pub fn from_legacy_stem(
-        legacy_stem: &str,
-        session_key: impl Into<String>,
-        agent_id: impl Into<String>,
-    ) -> Self;
+pub fn repair_orphaned_tool_head(rows: &[TranscriptMessage]) -> Vec<TranscriptMessage> {
+    let prefix = rows.iter().take_while(|row| row.role == "system").count();
+    let orphans = rows[prefix..]
+        .iter()
+        .take_while(|row| row.role == "tool")

-Add `repair_orphaned_tool_head(&mut Vec<TranscriptMessage>)` in

-only the incomplete trailing assistant tool-call row and unmatched trailing
-tool-result rows that cannot be replayed without their call; complete earlier
-tool rounds remain byte-for-byte/semantically unchanged. It must handle both
-typed transcript rows (`tool_calls`, `tool_call_id`) and the legacy envelopes
-already normalized by `TranscriptMessage::normalized`. Centralize the rule so
-the two OpenHuman replay paths can call the same implementation.

+tool-call round, does not remove later orphan rows, and does not rewrite the

+there are no leading orphans, callers should retain the original slice rather

 ### Post-commit bridge (`tinyagents-runtime`)
 
+`CommitReceipt<C>` contains only `SessionTurnOutcome`, transcript options and
+the optional transcript commit record. `SessionTurnOutcome` has history,
+output, and interrupted status; it has no tool call durations, argument
+digests, or failure classifications. Do not derive those values from
+transcript prose. The runtime must capture actual tool outcomes at the
+`tinyagents_harness::turn_outcome::ToolCallOutcome` boundary and pass a
+separate observation alongside the receipt. Add this exact value in
+`runtime/types.rs`:
+
+```rust
+#[derive(Clone, Debug)]
+pub struct PostCommitObservation<C: Clone + Send + Sync + 'static = ()> {
+    pub receipt: CommitReceipt<C>,
+    pub tool_outcomes: Vec<tinyagents_harness::turn_outcome::ToolCallOutcome>,

+
+Thread
+the generic observation sink from `DriverOutcome` through the runtime-owned
+finalization task. Add a `tool_outcomes` field to `DriverOutcome`, populated
+by the TinyAgents harness adapter by draining its existing
+`ToolOutcomeSink`; custom drivers default to an empty vector. Keep the
+argument and result text only for the duration of the callback. The summary
+adapter hashes serialized arguments, classifies failure using
+`classify_tool_failure`, and emits only the digest, name, success, class and
+duration in `ToolOutcomeRecord`.
+
 Add `PostCommitSink<C>` next to `SessionHooks` in `runtime/hooks.rs`:
 
 ```rust
 #[async_trait]
 pub trait PostCommitSink<C: Clone + Send + Sync + 'static = ()>: Send + Sync {
-    async fn after_commit(&self, receipt: CommitReceipt<C>) -> Result<(), RuntimeError>;

 }
 ```
 
-The runtime invokes installed sinks once, after durable transcript commit, and
-does not turn sink errors or cancellation into turn failure. Supply a no-op
-default and builder registration that composes multiple sinks in registration
-order. Preserve `SessionHooks::after_commit` compatibility internally during
-the migration, then remove the duplicate callback only if all in-repo call
-sites are migrated in this issue. Add a generic adapter that builds
-`tinyagents_harness::host::TurnSummary` and content-free `ToolOutcomeRecord`
-from `CommitReceipt`; it may hash serialized arguments but must not retain
-arguments or tool output. This adapter reports facts; OpenHuman supplies the
-progress fence, memory ingest, and learning sinks.
+The finalization owner already spawns a task after durable append and awaits
+its `JoinHandle` without observing cancellation (`runtime/session.rs`, commit
+path). Invoke sinks inside that same owned task so dropping the caller future
+cannot cancel a durable transition's finalization. Do not put additional
+awaits before the existing commit/finalization handoff. Sink errors remain
+observational. Registration is an explicit ordered `Vec<Arc<dyn
+PostCommitSink<C>>>` on `SessionBuilder`; no-op is an empty vector. Preserve
+`SessionHooks::after_commit` as the existing lifecycle hook and call it once
+from the same task; do not replace it or introduce an independently
+cancellable second tail. Add the `TurnSummary` adapter as a helper that
+consumes `PostCommitObservation`, while hosts continue to supply product
+progress/memory/learning sinks.
 
 ### Tool surface policy and durable extensions (`tinyagents-runtime`,
 `tinyagents-harness`)
 
-In `runtime/tool_registration.rs`, add an explicit policy value:
+Do not implement host-only behavior as a registration filter alone. The
+OpenHuman behavior is a deny-by-default `ToolCallPolicy` that wraps the
+host's own gate and is installed in the actual call-policy chain. Add the
+generic equivalent in `runtime/tool_registration.rs`:
 
 ```rust
-#[derive(Clone, Debug, Default)]
-pub struct HostOnlyToolPolicy {
-    pub names: HashSet<String>,
-    pub allow_empty: bool,
+pub struct HostOnlyToolPolicy<C> {
+    allowed: HashSet<String>,
+    host: Option<Arc<dyn tinyagents_harness::middleware::ToolCallPolicy<C>>>,
 }
-```
 
-Integrate it with `ToolAdmission` so a host-only turn admits exactly the
-host-provided belt, and still invokes the host's own gate for every admitted
-tool. Empty belt is deny-all. Do not implement OpenHuman approvals or security
-rules here. Extract first-wins visible-spec deduplication as a separate helper
-that preserves input order and the original winning `Arc<ToolSpec>` allocation.
-Keep the current `ToolSnapshot::new` conflict rejection for callers that
-require validation. Before deduplication, drop synthesized declarations whose
-names collide with durable host declarations, so durable declarations win.
+#[async_trait]
+impl<C: Send + Sync + 'static> ToolCallPolicy<C> for HostOnlyToolPolicy<C> {
+    fn name(&self) -> &str { "host_only" }
+
+    async fn check(
+        &self,
+        ctx: &RunContext<C>,
+        call: &ToolCall,
+    ) -> PolicyDecision {
+        if !self.allowed.contains(&call.name) {
+            return PolicyDecision::deny(format!(
+                "tool `{}` is not in this host-only belt", call.name
+            ));
+        }
+        match &self.host {
+            Some(host) => host.check(ctx, call).await,
+            None => PolicyDecision::Allow,
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
 
-Extend the existing harness-owned `ToolSnapshot` in
-`harness/src/tool/snapshot.rs` with a typed opaque extension map:
+Use the harness's actual `ToolCallPolicy<C>` trait and `RunContext<C>` call
+signature rather than a new policy protocol. The `check` implementation
+denies names outside `allowed` before delegating admitted names to `host`;
+empty `allowed` denies all. Runtime admission still controls model-visible
+registration, while this policy independently guards actual invocations.
+OpenHuman approvals remain the wrapped host policy. Extract first-wins
+visible-spec deduplication as a separate helper over `Vec<Arc<ToolSpec>>` that
+preserves input order and the winning allocation. Remove synthesized name
+collisions before deduplication so the durable declaration wins. Keep
+`ToolSnapshot::new` conflict rejection unchanged.

+        }
+        self.extensions.push(extension);
+        Ok(self)

+    pub fn extensions(&self) -> &[ToolSnapshotExtension] { &self.extensions }
 }

-Define a versioned snapshot record for transcript persistence. Decode the
-existing array-of-specs representation as version 0, and encode the versioned
-record only when extensions are present; preserve exactness semantics and
-round-trip extension values. Extension keys are namespaced strings, values
-are inert JSON, and the harness does not interpret Composio/REPL payloads.
-Update `retaining` and `with_retained` to preserve extensions. Explicit
-`Turn::tools` overrides remain authoritative and are not augmented from a
-recorded snapshot.
+`ToolExtensionNamespace` derives `Serialize`/`Deserialize` with stable snake
+case names. `payload` remains owned by the host adapter; TinyAgents stores and
+returns it without interpreting it. No transcript envelope redesign is
+needed: `jsonl.rs::ToolsLine.tools` is already arbitrary `serde_json::Value`.
+Keep the array-of-specs JSON exactly when there are no extensions. When
+extensions exist, encode `{ "specs": [...], "extensions": [...] }`; decode
+both the historical array and this object. Reject objects missing `specs`,
+unknown format versions only if a `version` field is added (prefer no version
+field for this additive in-process record), duplicate extension namespaces,
+and malformed payloads with `ToolSnapshotError::Decode`. `exact` remains a
+per-call in-memory flag and is not restored from durable transcript data.
+`retaining` and `with_retained` preserve extensions; explicit one-off tools
+remain exact and are never merged with recorded declarations.
+
+Add `ToolSnapshotError::DuplicateExtension(ToolExtensionNamespace)` with the
+traits needed by the error enum. Initialize `extensions` empty in `new` and
+`Default`. `ToolSnapshotExtension` derives `Clone`, `Debug`, `PartialEq`,
+`Serialize`, and `Deserialize`.
 
 ### Context configuration (`tinyagents-harness`)
 
-Move the generic `ContextConfig`, `CompactionStrategy`, and
-`CompactionSettings` from OpenHuman's `config/schema/context.rs` into a
-harness-owned config module. Preserve every existing field, serde alias,
-environment/config name mapping, and default, including `task_state`/`typed`/
-`s4` and `summary`/`free_form`/`s0`. Keep the generic micro-compaction
-keep-recent default in harness rather than reaching into
-`crate::agent::context`. Existing TOML remains deserializable with identical
-meaning. Product-only settings may remain host-side only when their policy
-boundary is documented and the generic harness types do not import OpenHuman.
-
-### Host integration contract (future OpenHuman #212)
-
-The follow-on host adapter will implement `SessionIdentityResolver` in
-OpenHuman and will return a `SessionRef` plus host-owned actor metadata after
-resolving the authenticated `CoreContext`. The planned contract is:
+Move `ContextConfig`, `CompactionSettings`, and `CompactionStrategy` from
+OpenHuman `crates/openhuman-core/src/config/schema/context.rs` into the exact
+TinyAgents files `crates/tinyagents-harness/src/config/context.rs`,
+`config/mod.rs`, and `src/lib.rs`. Preserve the complete field set and serde
+shape: `enabled`, `microcompact_enabled`, `autocompact_enabled`,
+`microcompact_keep_recent`, `tool_result_budget_bytes`,
+`summarizer_payload_threshold_tokens` (alias
+`summarizer_payload_threshold_bytes`), `summarizer_max_payload_tokens` (alias
+`summarizer_max_payload_bytes`), `summarizer_model`,
+`prefer_markdown_tool_output`, `compaction_enabled`,
+`compaction_trigger_tokens`, and `compaction_strategy`. Keep every default
+function's current value, `#[serde(default)]` behavior, strategy spelling,
+and `CompactionSettings` normalization of a zero trigger to `None`.
+`CompactionStrategy::parse` must continue accepting
+`task_state`/`typed`/`s4` and `summary`/`free_form`/`s0` after trimming,
+case-folding and converting hyphens to underscores.
+
+The moved type may retain the fields whose comments refer to TinyJuice or
+OpenHuman's compaction setting only if TinyAgents already consumes the
+matching generic knob. The host retains environment variable loading and
+product policy; `ContextConfig` itself owns only serializable context knobs.
+The default for `microcompact_keep_recent` becomes a harness constant with the
+same value as `DEFAULT_KEEP_RECENT_TOOL_RESULTS`; it must not import OpenHuman.
+The existing host `CompactionSettings` call site and full TOML compatibility
+are part of this task, even though host deletion/adoption of the rest of
+`session_host` is later in #212.
+
+### Session identity resolution (`tinyagents-runtime`)
+
+Issue #63 implements and wires this seam; OpenHuman's concrete resolver and
+adapter migration remain in #212. Place the request and result in
+`runtime/types.rs`, the trait in `runtime/identity.rs`, register it on
+`SessionBuilder`, and invoke it in `Session::turn_inner` after its initial
+cancellation check and before `before_resume`, target binding, locking, or
+resume:
 
 ```rust
+#[derive(Clone, Debug, PartialEq, Eq)]
+pub struct SessionIdentityRequest {
+    pub thread_id: Option<String>,
+    pub session_key: String,
+    pub parent: Option<SessionRef>,
+    pub child_key: Option<String>,
+}
+
+#[derive(Clone)]
 pub struct SessionIdentity {
     pub session: SessionRef,
     pub agent_id: String,
+    pub stores: tinyagents_session::port::SessionStoreLease,
 }
 
-pub trait SessionIdentityResolver: Send + Sync {
-    fn resolve(&self, request: &SessionIdentityRequest)
-        -> Result<SessionIdentity, RuntimeError>;
+pub trait SessionIdentityResolver<C: Send + Sync + 'static>: Send + Sync {
+    fn resolve(
+        &self,
+        request: &SessionIdentityRequest,
+        context: &C,
+    ) -> Result<SessionIdentity, RuntimeError>;
 }
 ```
 
-`SessionIdentityRequest` carries only logical thread/task and parent-session
-inputs. It carries no authority-bearing tenant field. The host uses the
-resolved actor context to select a `SessionStoreLease` separately. This
-contract is intentionally documented now; OpenHuman adoption/deletions are
-outside this TinyAgents-only plan.
+The request has logical naming inputs only; there is no caller-provided
+agent/tenant scope field. The resolver uses `context` to authorize the actor,
+choose the resolved agent id, and open a tenant-scoped lease. It returns a
+root `SessionRef::scoped(request.session_key, resolved_agent_id)` or child
+`SessionRef::child_of(parent, child_key)`. Runtime binds the target locator
+from `identity.stores.stores().transcripts`, sets target `session`, `stem`,
+`meta.agent_id`, `meta.session_id`, `meta.parent_session_id`, then continues
+to hooks/resume. Resolver failure returns immediately without touching the
+current or fallback locator. A session-bound target may keep its own fixed
+locator only when no resolver is installed.
+
+Put the resolved identity in `SessionStateView` as
+`Option<&SessionIdentity>` so `before_resume` can observe it without
+re-resolving. Store it on `Session<C>` for the entire turn, clear it before
+each resolution attempt, and reject a later identity whose `first_generation`
+or admitted lease destination differs from the established identity. This
+prevents one live `Session` from crossing tenant boundaries. The resolver is
+called on every turn before resume so a newly constructed runtime/process
+repeats host identity admission; host adapters do not cache authority in the
+serialized transcript. Compare each resolved `SessionRef::first_generation()`,
+agent id, and locator `destination_key()` with the established binding. Reject
+a change with `RuntimeError::InvalidSessionState` before opening a history
+handle. When a locator has no destination key, require `Arc::ptr_eq`; a host
+resolver may cache its lease for repeated calls in one actor context.

+`runtime/types.rs`, `runtime/builder.rs`, `runtime/session.rs`, `runtime/lib.rs`,
+and new `runtime/identity_tests.rs` declared from `lib.rs`.
+
+First add a recording resolver and locator test. The resolver reads a marker
+from `RunContext::data` and returns a scoped identity plus a lease whose
+transcript locator records its methods. Assert `Session::turn` resumes through
+that locator and its `TranscriptTarget` metadata names the resolved agent.
+Add a second resolver that returns `Err` and assert the builder's configured
+fallback locator receives no `head_generation`, `read_session_transcript`, or
+write call. Both tests fail because the resolver API is absent. Implement the
+interface above; store the resolver on `SessionBuilder` and `Session`; invoke
+it in `turn_inner` after cancellation and before `before_resume`; build the
+target from the lease locator, canonical `SessionRef`, and existing metadata
+seed; expose the identity through `SessionStateView`. Require the builder
+metadata seed when a resolver is installed and reject missing seed at build.
+Check identity, agent, and locator destination against the existing binding
+before every handle open. Do not fall back after resolver errors. Run
+`cargo test -p tinyagents-runtime identity_resolver` and then
+`cargo test -p tinyagents-runtime`.

+### 4. Add explicit pinned store leases without changing live rebind
 
 **Files:** `crates/tinyagents-session/src/port/{mod.rs,types.rs,drivers/rebound.rs,workspace.rs}`
 and sibling `rebound_tests.rs`, `workspace_tests.rs`, and
 `testkit/conformance.rs` as needed.
 
-First add a regression where (a) a retained generic handle writes before and
-after rebind and follows the provider, (b) a lease opened before rebind
-continues reading/writing its original backend, and (c) an open after rebind
-uses the new backend. Run two tenant scopes against one backend and assert no
-agent/key visibility crosses scopes; also assert a registry rebind leaves
-unregistered providers unchanged. Then add the lease API and run both
-`session_store_isolation_conformance` and the full crate tests. Preserve the
-existing tests that assert retained live handles follow rebind and pinned
-host-opened handles keep their backend; neither assertion may be silently
-weakened.
-
-### 4. Add post-commit sink and generic summary adapter
-
-**Files:** `crates/tinyagents-runtime/src/{hooks.rs,session.rs,types.rs}` and
-new `hooks_tests.rs`/existing runtime sibling tests.
-
-Use a recording sink to assert one call after a successful durable append and
-after a replacement/generation commit; assert zero calls for pre-commit
-failure. Use a failing sink and assert the committed turn remains successful.
-Assert summary tool outcomes contain name, digest, success/failure class, and
-duration but no argument or result payload. Run focused tests red, implement
-sink composition in registration order, then `cargo test -p tinyagents-runtime`.
+In `rebound_tests.rs`, add `a_lease_keeps_its_backend_while_new_opens_follow_rebind`: create provider over `MemoryStorage`, open `lease_for_agent`, write key `("prefs", "key")`, rebind to a fresh `MemoryStorage`, assert the lease still reads/writes the old backend, and assert `lease_for_agent` after rebind reads/writes the new backend. Run `cargo test -p tinyagents-session a_lease_keeps_its_backend_while_new_opens_follow_rebind`; it must fail because `lease_for_agent` is missing. Implement `SessionStoreLease` as an owning `AgentStores` wrapper; add the default provider method wrapping `try_for_agent`; override it in `RebindableSessionStores` by calling `self.current().try_for_agent(agent_id)` and wrapping the returned non-live stores. Add tenant test with two `Scope`s and one backend proving each lease sees only its own agent records. Retain and run the existing `retained_and_cloned_handles_follow_rebind_without_crossing_agent_scopes` test unchanged. Then run `cargo test -p tinyagents-session port::drivers::rebound` and `cargo test -p tinyagents-session`.
+
+### 5. Capture tool observations and route post-commit sinks in the owned finalizer
+
+**Files:** `crates/tinyagents-runtime/src/{driver.rs,hooks.rs,session.rs,types.rs}`,
+`turn_driver/driver.rs`, and their sibling `driver_tests.rs`,
+`hooks_tests.rs`, `session_tests.rs`, `turn_driver/driver_tests.rs`.
+
+First add a recording `SessionDriver` returning one `ToolCallOutcome`; pin
+that `DriverOutcome` carries the observation after execution. Then add a
+recording sink test that verifies it runs after the transcript append by
+reading the appended row inside the sink, and a cancellation test that drops
+the caller future after durable commit but still observes sink completion.
+Add a failure test proving pre-commit failure never invokes the sink and a
+sink-error test proving it cannot change the successful result. Each test
+must fail before the corresponding API/code exists. Extend `DriverOutcome`
+with `Vec<ToolCallOutcome>` defaulted empty; have `TurnDriver` build a shared
+`ToolOutcomeSink`, install `ToolOutcomeCaptureMiddleware` into its per-turn
+middleware chain, drain it into the outcome, and keep custom drivers' empty
+default. Add the sink list to `SessionBuilder`, pass it to `Session`, and
+invoke each sink in registration order from the existing owned
+`terminal_guard.finalize_commit(receipt)` task. Keep `SessionHooks::after_commit`
+in that task and in its current position. The `TurnSummary` adapter consumes
+outcomes and must not persist the raw argument/result. Verify with
+`cargo test -p tinyagents-runtime post_commit` and then
+`cargo test -p tinyagents-runtime`.

 `snapshot_tests.rs`.
 
-Test first-wins dedup by pointer identity and order; synthesized collision

-behavioral failing tests first, keep the existing conflict-rejection tests,
-then implement and run `cargo test -p tinyagents-runtime -p tinyagents-harness`.
-
-### 6. Move context configuration into harness
-
-**Files:** `crates/tinyagents-harness/src/config/` plus its sibling tests and
-`crates/tinyagents-harness/Cargo.toml` only if existing dependencies require
-an already available serde/schema dependency. Update harness compaction
-consumers and delete only the generic duplicate implementation from the host
-in this upstream repo (there should be no OpenHuman code changes here).
-
-Add TOML deserialization regression fixtures for every existing setting,
-aliases, default values, zero trigger normalization, strategy parsing, and
-serialization compatibility before moving the type. Verify old TOML fixtures
-still deserialize to equal values; verify the harness no longer has an
-OpenHuman-style backedge. Run focused tests red, then
-`cargo test -p tinyagents-harness config` and
+In `tool_registration_tests.rs`, add tests that run the wrapper's real
+`ToolCallPolicy::check`: unknown name denies without calling the host gate;
+allowed name delegates exactly once; empty set denies all. Implement
+`HostOnlyToolPolicy<C>` as `ToolCallPolicy<C>` with
+`RunContext<C>`, `ToolCall`, and `PolicyDecision`, then expose a helper to
+compose the wrapper around an optional host policy. Add first-wins spec test
+that checks names/order and `Arc::ptr_eq` with the winning allocation; add
+durable-wins-synthesized collision test. In `snapshot_tests.rs`, assert old
+array decode and byte-compatible `to_json` without extensions, new object
+round-trip with `Composio` and `Repl` extension payloads, duplicate namespace
+decode failure, extension preservation through `retaining` and
+`with_retained`, and exact snapshots never retaining recorded tools. Run each
+new filter and verify red before code, then run
+`cargo test -p tinyagents-runtime -p tinyagents-harness`.
+
+### 7. Move context configuration into harness
+
+**Files:** `crates/tinyagents-harness/src/config/context.rs`,
+`config/mod.rs`, `src/lib.rs`, and new `config/context_tests.rs` declared
+through `#[cfg(test)] #[path = "context_tests.rs"] mod tests;`. Update
+TinyAgents compaction consumers and config exports; do not change OpenHuman
+sources in this TinyAgents plan.
+
+Before moving the type, add exact tests: `serde_json::from_str::<ContextConfig>("{}") == ContextConfig::default()`;
+TOML fixture with all 12 fields and both aliases; strategy parse table for all
+six accepted spellings plus rejected unknown value; zero trigger yields
+`CompactionSettings { trigger_tokens: None, strategy: configured_strategy }`;
+nonzero trigger survives; and serializing/deserializing the full default
+preserves equality. The tests fail because harness has no `ContextConfig`.
+Move the fields/default helpers exactly, replacing only the OpenHuman
+microcompact default reference with a harness constant equal to its current
+value. Then run `cargo test -p tinyagents-harness config::context` and
 `cargo test -p tinyagents-runtime`.
 
-### 7. Reconcile full crate and workspace integration

Subject: [PATCH 0079/1076] feat(completions): migrate legacy records to
 generation one

Records written before lifecycle markers existed carry generation zero,
so first sight now admits those durable records into the new open
generation under the same parent gate. The duplicate-record test was
rewritten to race two writers concurrently instead of relying on a
blocking store.

Subject: [PATCH 0080/1076] docs(plans): tighten runtime session host seam
 contracts

The plan now specifies concrete API contracts instead of loose signature sketches, requiring both replay helpers to be implemented as written with existing error types and no new dependency edges. It also documents the second inference Message helper and clarifies that repair only strips leading orphan tool rows.

Subject: [PATCH 0082/1076] fix(completions): inherit parent epoch from
 cancellation marker on put

When a completion arrives with an unset parent epoch but a parent key,
look up the parent-cancelled marker and adopt its epoch so the record is
attributed to the correct parent generation. Previously such records kept
epoch zero and could be matched against the wrong parent.

Subject: [PATCH 0083/1076] docs(plans): refine runtime session host seams plan

Clarify the pinned lease constructor's privacy and drop the redundant
backend-specific provider constructor guidance. Rework the transcript
repair step to start from a failing runtime behavior test on a callable
public path, then add direct parity tests for both message
representations. Correct the file lists for the adoption and pinned
lease steps.

+Implement `ToolSnapshotExtensions::insert<T>(&mut self, value: T)` and

+method on the extension trait. The blanket implementation returns `self` from
+`as_any`. Replacing an existing value of the same Rust type replaces that
+value; different host types coexist. Implement `Debug` for the collection by
+printing its length, so `ToolSnapshot` keeps its current `Debug` derive. Clones
+share immutable `Arc` payloads. `retaining` and `with_retained` copy the
+extension collection; `exact` semantics remain unchanged.
+
+Keep `ToolSnapshot::to_json` and `from_json` as the existing array-of-specs
+format with no extension serialization. The harness transcript record already
+stores arbitrary JSON, but TinyAgents cannot serialize a host-defined Rust
+type without a host-owned codec. The host rebuilds typed extension values when
+it reconstructs the current snapshot after resume. If a concrete host later
+proves it needs durable extension payloads, that host adds a separate codec
+and transcript record while the generic runtime carrier remains typed.

letting stale or expired owners mutate records. A new with_current_gate helper
now validates the gate under the parent-gates lock and rechecks expiry after
acquiring the records lock, and put_fenced also restores the parent epoch from
a cancellation marker when the incoming record carries none.

Subject: [PATCH 0089/1076] docs(plans): move extension trait code into the
 plan's example

The runtime session host seams plan now shows the object-safe as_any method and the insert/get implementations directly in the Rust snippet instead of describing them in prose. The remaining prose keeps only the notes that are not visible in the code, such as Debug, replacement, and clone semantics.

Subject: [PATCH 0091/1076] fix(completions): prevent resuming a deleted parent

`resume_parent` now checks the stored parent marker before reopening a
parent. Reopening an already open parent is idempotent, while a parent
closed with `delete_parent` returns an error instead of silently
clearing its tombstone. The doc comments for `cancel_parent` and
`resume_parent` were updated to match this behaviour.

 queued items

Introduce a QueueAdmission trait and guarded push methods so hosts can attach a retained capability to queued messages that is revalidated when the agent loop consumes them. Items whose admission is no longer valid are dropped before entering the transcript, and drain, peek, and removal paths now filter on admission validity.

Subject: [PATCH 0094/1076] test(run_queue): cover revoked admission during
 take

Adds tests for discarding queued items whose retained admission is
revoked, and for skipping a revoked oldest item in one-at-a-time mode
without blocking the lane.

Subject: [PATCH 0096/1076] test(completions): cover cross-router cancellation
 of queued completions

Adds a regression test asserting that a completion queued under a parent
generation which is then cancelled and resumed by another router never reaches
the model turn. Also applies rustfmt import and assertion formatting across the
completions and run queue tests.

Subject: [PATCH 0097/1076] docs(plans): tighten runtime session host seam
 design

Expand the session host seams plan to specify the lease API's error
handling and the Send + Sync + 'static bound on HostOnlyToolPolicy, and
to require a single authority check covering every transcript locator
path. The changes close gaps where the prior draft left lease failure
and identity resolution behaviour ambiguous.

Subject: [PATCH 0099/1076] docs(plans): refine runtime session host seam
 design

Expanded the runtime session host seams plan with concrete error and lease
types, comparison semantics for session admission, and a revised ordering for
identity resolution across turn and resume paths. The lease contract now
specifies unsupported-provider behaviour and tenant isolation coverage so the
implementation steps are unambiguous.

Subject: [PATCH 0101/1076] docs(plans): refine runtime session host seams plan

Clarify the lease contract so only a provider that can attest to pinned lifetime may construct a SessionStoreLease, and spell out the default lease_for_agent implementation returning Unsupported. Document the resume/resume_bound split and the fixed call ordering in turn_inner to avoid resolving twice.

 details

The runtime session host seams plan now specifies the host-policy test
using a counter-backed policy and a real RunContext, covering deny,
forward, and empty-allowlist cases plus a TurnPlan check that the tool
executor is never invoked for unknown calls. The Debug implementation
for ToolSnapshotExtensions is spelled out explicitly so ToolSnapshot
can keep its current derive.

Detail the post-commit sink wiring in TurnDriver::execute, including how
tool outcomes are captured and drained and how the owned finalizer receives
observations and sinks instead of reconstructing them from the commit
receipt. Also tighten the test plan wording so each test states the exact
assertion it must make.

Queue admission now hands out an owned permit when an item is taken, so
the lifecycle stays open until the queue-to-turn handoff completes.
Permits are acquired after the queue mutex is released to keep storage
I/O from blocking producers.

Subject: [PATCH 0113/1076] docs(plans): update session host seams for
 immutable driver leases

Rework the lease design so DriverSessionStores and RebindableSessionStores
both support lease_for_agent without an owner field on the lease. The
rebindable provider delegates to a single current() snapshot, and actor-bound
providers returned by bind_actor now open pinned leases directly. Test plans
gain coverage for actor-bound storage.

Subject: [PATCH 0114/1076] feat(completions): add parent admission permit for
 queue handoff

Introduce a durable parent admission permit that holds the parent
lifecycle gate while a queued completion crosses into its parent turn,
ordering the handoff against cancellation, deletion, and resume across
routers sharing the same store. The run queue now takes admitted items
carrying their permit so the gate is released only after the messages
are merged into the turn.

Subject: [PATCH 0115/1076] refactor(completions): return admission permit from
 acquire

The queue admission trait now expects an acquire method that yields a
permit, so CompletionAdmission hands back the parent generation permit
instead of a unit value. This keeps the parent generation pinned for the
lifetime of the admitted work and aligns the implementation with the
updated harness interface.

Subject: [PATCH 0116/1076] fix(run_queue): stop filtering guarded items from
 snapshots and removal

The snapshot and remove_where paths no longer skip guarded entries, so
guarded payloads are no longer silently hidden from callers that read or
prune the queue. Tests now assert that revoked items are rejected at the
lifecycle admission boundary rather than transferred without their permit.

Subject: [PATCH 0117/1076] docs(plans): move tool outcome capture into prepare

Rework the runtime session host seams plan so tool outcome capture is
created during prepare and carried through PreparedTurn into TurnTail,
since split callers never invoke execute. TurnTail::finish now drains the
sink into a new TurnReport.tool_outcomes field that execute copies into
DriverOutcome, giving prepare/run, prepare/split, and execute the same
captured results.

Subject: [PATCH 0120/1076] feat(run_queue): share admission permits across
 batched items

Admission permits are now returned as shared Arc values and can be keyed by a
batch key so that items belonging to the same parent generation reuse a single
permit instead of each acquiring independently. The one-at-a-time mode now
skips items whose acquisition fails and continues to the next queued entry
rather than dropping the whole batch.

+Because `TurnSummary` requires a thread, its adapter returns `None` when

+
+Implement that adapter as this pure function in `runtime/summary.rs`:

admission permit. The existing cancellation test now uses take_admitted so
it exercises the same admission path.

Subject: [PATCH 0123/1076] docs(plans): expand runtime session host seams plan

Document the builder and storage wiring for identity resolution,
including the private IdentityConfig, the identity_resolver builder
method, and the resolve_and_bind helper. Clarify that SessionIdentity
is a runtime-created private binding while the host only returns
ResolvedSessionStores.

+In `SessionBuilder::build`, require a codec when either transcript or

+`SessionIdentity` is a runtime-created private binding; the host result is
+only `ResolvedSessionStores { agent_id, stores }`. Runtime constructs the
+canonical root `SessionRef` from the configured logical key and resolved agent
+id; it accepts no host-provided stem. `same_admission` compares the identity's first generation, agent id, and
+locator key/pointer as specified above.
+
 Implement the binding predicate in `runtime/identity.rs` with the following
 comparison semantics (the current target locator is read from the target that
 will actually be resumed, after hook preparation):

Subject: [PATCH 0127/1076] feat(completions): key parent admission batches by
 store identity

Add a coordination_identity hook to CompletionStore so durable drivers
derive queue batch keys from backend identity and tenant scope instead of
the router pointer. Independent router instances sharing one lease domain
now coalesce onto a single held parent permit, while in-memory stores keep
the previous object-identity fallback.

Subject: [PATCH 0128/1076] docs(plans): expand runtime session host seam test
 plan

Replace the prose sketch of the rejection cases with concrete adversarial
test bodies covering hook target replacement, explicit session override, and
later identity change. Add ordering constraints and the accepted
same-destination case so the plan states the expected behaviour precisely.

-For the three rejection cases, use the same `FixedIdentityResolver` with
-distinct `agent_id`s and a `TranscriptLocator` wrapped in the existing
-`Destination` fixture. Assert the call returns
-`Err(RuntimeError::InvalidSessionState(_))`, the `Driver.requests` vector
-remains empty, and the wrong locator's `latest_agents`/`opened_stems` vectors
-remain empty. The hook case's hook implementation must return a
-`ResumePreparation { transcript: Some(TranscriptTarget::for_session(
-wrong_locator, SessionRef::scoped("thread-identity", "agent-resolved"),
-meta())) }`; its `before_turn` returns `Ok(TurnPreparation::default())`,
-`before_commit` returns `Ok(())`, and `on_terminal` returns `Ok(())`. The
-explicit option case sets `options.session = Some(SessionRef::scoped(
-"other-thread", "agent-resolved"))`. The changed-identity case performs one
-successful turn, changes resolver agent id, then asserts the next turn fails
-before the second driver request. Keep the same destination/rebuilt locator
-case accepted by asserting the second turn's driver request is recorded.

+asserting two driver requests. Run the direct test filter and the runtime suite.
 Run `cargo test -p tinyagents-runtime direct_resume_resolves_and_uses_the_admitted_lease`
 and `cargo test -p tinyagents-runtime identity`, then the runtime crate suite.

Subject: [PATCH 0129/1076] docs(plans): update session host seams plan

Widen SessionIdentity fields to crate visibility so the builder and state view can construct and read them, and export SessionIdentityRequest alongside SessionIdentity from types. The test snippets now import DriverSessionStores explicitly to match the port path used in the examples.

Subject: [PATCH 0132/1076] refactor(completions): return admission permits as
 trait objects

The parent admission permit is now returned as an Arc<dyn QueueAdmissionPermit> directly from the router instead of being wrapped at the call site in admission.rs. This removes the redundant Arc construction in CompletionAdmission and drops the now-unused ParentAdmissionPermit re-export from the module's public API.

Subject: [PATCH 0133/1076] docs(plans): add lease and tool-outcome test
 details to host seams plan

Expands the runtime session host seams plan with exact test bodies for lease pinning, actor-bound providers, and tenant isolation, plus a negative test for providers lacking a pin contract. Also revises the tool-outcome capture design to create the sink during prepare and carry it through PreparedTurn into TurnTail, with concrete structural edits for the driver types.

Add `actor_bound_driver_provider_can_open_a_pinned_lease`: call `bind_actor(admitted_backend)`, then open a lease from the returned provider and assert its tenant-scoped stores access the admitted backend. Add `unsupported_provider_cannot_issue_a_pinned_lease` for a provider implementing only `for_agent`; assert `Unsupported` and no attempted handle open. Add two-tenant isolation coverage with distinct `Scope`s. Implement the preceding `SessionStoreLease { stores }` exactly, with private construction and a read-only `stores()` accessor. The `SessionStoreProvider` default returns `Err(Unsupported)`; `DriverSessionStores::lease_for_agent` opens immutable, direct handles, and `RebindableSessionStores::lease_for_agent` delegates to `self.current()` so a live forwarding handle never escapes. Map open errors to `Open(error)`. Do not change the host-admitted `bind_actor` contract; test unsupported providers return `Ok(None)` and do not silently borrow another actor. Retain the existing live-handle rebind test unchanged. Run focused lease tests, `cargo test -p tinyagents-session port::drivers::rebound`, then the crate suite.

Subject: [PATCH 0134/1076] docs(plans): clarify resume extraction ordering in
 host seams plan

Rework the resume extraction step so the pre-resume hook and preparation
portion is split into `prepare_resume` before the private `resume_bound`
helper is introduced. The plan now spells out the required ordering of
hook, preparation, session validation, admission, target comparison, and
lock acquisition, and requires the public `resume` to follow the same
sequence rather than acting as a resolver-only shortcut.

Subject: [PATCH 0138/1076] docs(plans): spell out retaining and with_retained
 bodies

The runtime session host seams plan now gives the complete implementation
for `retaining` and the success tail of `with_retained`, so the extension
cloning and name-collision validation are unambiguous. The `from_json`
behaviour and array wire format are unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 0146/1076] test(session): cover hook override of resolved
 session option

Adds a test asserting that a hook cannot override the session option
resolved by the identity resolver, and that no locator or history access
occurs when the turn is rejected. The transcript setup was moved between
two existing tests so each exercises the intended fallback path.

CompletionAdmission now holds a CompletionStore directly instead of a

ParentAdmissionPermit so it can be acquired without locking the router.
This lets queued completions be admitted against a store that is not

Subject: [PATCH 0152/1076] docs(plans): add accepted same-generation resume
 test to host seams plan

The plan now specifies the accepted case using the same immutable destination and resolved agent for both admissions, with the second turn passing the established-binding guard. A concrete tokio test is included so the expected driver request count is unambiguous.

Subject: [PATCH 0153/1076] fix(completions): guard queue pushes with durable
 parent admission

The router now wraps each queued completion in a CompletionAdmission
permit so the queue-to-turn handoff is ordered against cancellation,
deletion, and resume across routers sharing the backing store. The
now-unused acquire_parent_generation and parent_admission_batch_key
helpers were removed.

 finalization design

Document the finalize_commit helper and the exact construction order for PostCommitObservation at the successful commit site. This clarifies that no await may occur between a successful append and finalization, and keeps the DriverFailure sink behavior explicit.

Subject: [PATCH 0165/1076] fix(tinyagents-tasks): frame admission batch key
 components

Completion admission batch keys joined the identity, parent key, and
epoch with colons, so caller-owned strings containing colons could
collide with other batches. The components are now serialized as a JSON
tuple to keep each one unambiguously framed.

Rework the planned IdentityConfig so it lives in runtime/identity.rs and is

The run loop now drains the collect lane through take_admitted with the

permit has been revoked are dropped rather than appended to the run's
collected observations. A regression test covers a revoked guarded message
alongside an ordinary one.

Subject: [PATCH 0179/1076] fix(subagent): allow awaiting-user sessions to be
 reused

Sessions paused while awaiting a user reply are now considered reusable, so a child waiting on input is resumed for the same task key instead of being replaced. The test was extended to build a full session and assert it matches the selector.

Add a driver test asserting that a queued completion canceled through a

 router

Adds parents_with_pending and cancel_all_parents so callers can close every parent with outstanding completions in one call, reusing the existing durable fenced marker path. Tests cover the new API and confirm a live completion reaches the provider when the parent stays open.

Subject: [PATCH 0185/1076] docs(plans): add executable summary tests to host
 seams plan

Extends the runtime session host seams plan with concrete tests for
turn_summary covering identity resolution, tool digest classification,
and captured usage fields. The tests pin down that private arguments and
tool content never reach the serialized summary.

Subject: [PATCH 0187/1076] feat(subagent): add bulk cancellation for jobs by
 thread or all

Adds cancel_for_thread and cancel_all to the job registry so callers can
request cancellation across many live jobs at once. Both route through a
shared cancel_matching helper that skips terminal or unknown jobs and
keeps each public job record intact for the normal settlement path.

 already deleted

Closing a parent now checks the stored marker before writing a new
state. If the marker was already marked as deleted and the incoming
state is not itself a deletion, the parent is removed without
withdrawing completions, avoiding a redundant state transition.

silently returning an empty list. cancel_all_parents also collects parents
from lifecycle markers and attached parents so that a parent with no
pending completions is still closed.

Subject: [PATCH 0197/1076] fix(subagent): count only newly cancelled jobs in
 bulk cancellation

Bulk cancellation previously reported every matching job as requested even when
cancellation had already been requested for it. The registry now tracks whether
each cancel call actually changed the job state and only increments the count
for those, so repeated cancel_for_thread calls return zero instead of a stale
total.

Document that session requests carry only logical naming inputs and never an agent or tenant selector, with parent/child lineage preserved in the child SessionRef. Add re-admission guidance to retain the established generation so a compacted head is not reset to zero, plus adversarial tests covering child lineage and Never-resume behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 0199/1076] test(completions): cover generation isolation
 across cancel and resume

Adds a driver test asserting that a child spawned under an earlier parent
generation stays suppressed after the parent is cancelled and resumed, while a
child admitted in the new generation records normally. This guards against
stale children being relabeled into a later lifecycle.

 host seams plan

The plan now states that runtime constructs either a root or child SessionRef
from configured logical naming inputs and the resolved agent id, and the
identity resolver test covers both the root and delegated child cases. The
child lineage test also asserts that resuming a child session does not load
the root thread.

Subject: [PATCH 0203/1076] docs(plans): clarify identity module imports and
 re-exports

Expands the runtime session host seams plan to spell out which types
identity.rs imports from crate::types and crate::error, and notes that
identity stays private in lib.rs while SessionIdentityResolver and the
session types are re-exported publicly.

 workspace

Thread ids are only unique within a workspace, so cancel_for_thread now
takes a ParentJobScope carrying both the workspace and thread id and only
cancels jobs whose retained metadata matches both. Jobs with incomplete
metadata no longer match a scoped cancellation request.

Subject: [PATCH 0207/1076] docs(plans): clarify session host seam admission
 and compaction

Reworked the runtime session host seam plan so that only a previously
admitted identity authorizes carrying a nonzero generation forward, since a
builder target is an unselected fallback even when it names the same session.
Also extended the never-resume compaction test to cover re-admission after
compaction and assert the sealed generation stays intact.

Subject: [PATCH 0210/1076] docs(plans): clarify re-admission identity
 comparison rules

Re-admission now retains the current session generation only when a prior
established identity exists and passes the first-generation, agent, and
pinned-lease comparison. Without an established identity the builder-provided
target is treated as an unselected fallback that cannot choose the first
admitted generation.

Subject: [PATCH 0211/1076] feat(tinyagents-tasks): add release_all to clear
 delivery leases

Thread delivery leases now track a unique id per acquisition so that
release_all can clear every process-local lease at once. Guards released
this way become inert and cannot remove a lease later acquired for the
same thread.

Subject: [PATCH 0214/1076] feat(subagent): add close_if_current to session
 store

Adds a close_if_current method to the SubagentSessionStore trait with a
default implementation and a driver-backed override that closes a session
only when the caller still owns the current task and lifecycle key. This
prevents a stale owner from closing a replacement that reused the same
durable session id.

 seams plan

The example tests in the runtime session host seams plan called
unwrap().read_session() on transcript lookups even though the API now
returns an Option directly. The assertions were rewritten to match the
current signature so the plan reflects the intended behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 0217/1076] feat(subagent): add owner-scoped session store
 wrapper

Introduce ScopedSubagentSessionStore, which binds a session store to one
exact parent session and thread so callers cannot read or mutate sessions
belonging to another owner. A missing thread identity is treated as exact
rather than a wildcard, and out-of-scope access returns a persistence
error.

Subject: [PATCH 0218/1076] feat(subagent): export ScopedSubagentSessionStore
 and cover parent scoping

Re-export the scoped session store from the subagent module so callers can
wrap a driver store with a fixed parent identity. Added tests confirming the
scoped store rejects mismatched parent or thread identities and hides
sessions it does not own.

Add a cfg(test) module declaration so the adoption tests are compiled
with the crate. The test file already existed but was never referenced,
so its cases were silently skipped.

Subject: [PATCH 0220/1076] fix(subagent): decode legacy transcript history in
 durable sessions

Durable subagent sessions persisted with the older flat transcript shape
failed to deserialize once the history field moved to the current Message
representation. A custom deserializer now falls back to the legacy row
format, mapping roles and tool calls into Message values so existing
stored sessions keep loading.

Subject: [PATCH 0222/1076] test(subagent): cover scoped store rejection of
 foreign parent

Extend the scoped session store test to verify that upserting a
running session whose selector names a different parent session is
rejected. This guards the parent identity check against a case that
was previously untested.

Subject: [PATCH 0223/1076] feat(delivery): add per-call initial delay override

Adds a delivery entry point that accepts a call-specific initial delay, applying it only to that drain while leaving recovery and later calls on their configured delays. A test confirms the override does not mutate the delivery's own debounce setting.

 transcript heads

Adds repair_orphaned_tool_head and repair_orphaned_tool_head_messages, which strip only the contiguous orphan tool-result run following the system prefix. The repair is a replay view that leaves durable rows untouched so later tool rows still pass strict transcript validation.

Adds tests asserting that an existing lease keeps its original backend
after a registry rebind while newly opened leases follow the new one,
and that actor-bound providers keep admitted tenants separate. These
lock in the isolation guarantees around lease pinning.

 stem stability

Adds tests asserting that adopting a legacy root leaves child sessions
untouched and that canonical session stems are deterministic and distinct
from legacy timestamped stems.

Introduce a SessionStoreLease type that retains the backend admitted at
open time, along with a lease_for_agent method on SessionStoreProvider.
Providers that cannot guarantee pinned handles fail closed with
Unsupported rather than forwarding to a rebound backend.

Both DriverSessionStores and RebindableSessionStores now implement
lease_for_agent, returning a pinned SessionStoreLease for a given agent.
The rebindable provider delegates to its current provider so leases stay
valid across rebinds.

Subject: [PATCH 0233/1076] test(session): cover pinned provider leases in
 conformance suite

Adds a conformance check that a provider's pinned lease exposes usable
key-value stores, plus a workspace test confirming a lease keeps the
opened store alive after the original handle is dropped. This gives
providers a shared way to verify lease behaviour without relying on
provider-specific storage details.

Subject: [PATCH 0234/1076] feat(subagent): enforce owner checks in atomic
 session lifecycle updates

The session store trait now takes parent session and thread identifiers in
close_if_current and gains mark_finished_if_current and mark_failed_if_current,
so a stale owner cannot mutate a session whose lifecycle was reused by another
parent. The driver store compares those identifiers inside the same mutation as
the status change, making the check atomic instead of a separate read.

 driver session stores

The driver session store tests now also run the lease conformance suite
alongside the existing store and isolation checks, so lease behaviour is
verified across the memory and file backends.

Subject: [PATCH 0238/1076] feat(subagent): scope session close to parent
 session

The close_if_current method now takes the parent session and thread id and
returns false when they do not match the scoped session's own parent. This
prevents a scoped store from closing tasks that belong to a different parent.

Subject: [PATCH 0240/1076] test(session): cover transcript isolation across
 lease rebinds

Extend the rebound driver tests to assert that transcript data stays with
the backend a lease was opened against. After a rebind the old lease still
reads its transcript while a newly opened lease sees none, and leases bound
to different tenants cannot read each other's sessions.

Subject: [PATCH 0242/1076] test(completions): stamp reopened records with the
 admitted generation

The cancelled-parent reopen test now captures the generation returned by
admit_child_generation and assigns it to the later record, so the reopened
router sees a record from the current generation instead of a stale one.

Subject: [PATCH 0243/1076] test(subagent): cover scoped mutations after a
 paused session read

Adds a test that pauses the underlying session store after a read and
verifies that scoped close, finish, and fail mutations recheck task
ownership once the read resumes. This guards against stale mutations
being applied when a task id is reused by a replacement owner.

 sessions

Subagent sessions have no independent root identity to adopt, so the
locator now returns early for them. Previously an absent agent_id was
treated as a wildcard, which could copy the parent's transcript history
into the child.

Subject: [PATCH 0246/1076] refactor(subagent): drop lifecycle checks from
 scoped session store

The scoped store now delegates close, mark_finished, and mark_failed
directly to the inner store instead of routing through the
close_if_current and mark_finished_if_current variants. The lifecycle
key and parent context are no longer used to guard these operations.

Subject: [PATCH 0247/1076] test(transcripts-adoption): assert legacy
 transcript is untouched by adoption

Add a snapshot helper that captures a transcript's meta, messages and
tools as JSON, and use it to verify that adopting a legacy root leaves
the original legacy transcript unchanged when a child session is
present.

Subject: [PATCH 0248/1076] fix(subagent): enforce lifecycle checks in scoped
 session store

The scoped session store now routes close, mark_finished, and mark_failed
through the inner store's _if_current variants, passing the lifecycle key
and parent session context. Previously these calls discarded the lifecycle
key and delegated to the unconditional methods, so stale sessions could be
closed or finished without verifying they were still current.

The SubagentAwaitingUser struct now carries a stable task_key alongside the
durable task id so the paused child can be respawned or reused. The field is
encoded into the rendered marker and parsed back on round-trip.

 awaiting-user caveat

The caveat shown when a subagent pause could not be checkpointed now
refers to reusing the task_key and to spawn_subagent reporting no
checkpoint, matching the actual recovery path instead of the previous
wording about resuming and continue_subagent.

Subject: [PATCH 0255/1076] feat(subagent): add host-supplied roster formatter

Adds format_roster_for_owner, which passes an owner-filtered, deterministically ordered snapshot to a host callback so hosts can control prompt wording while TinyAgents owns the data and ordering. A test covers the sorted owner-scoped snapshot and rendered output.

 cancellation

Add cancel_all_for_workspace to the subagent job registry so callers can
cancel only the live jobs belonging to one exact workspace. Jobs without
workspace metadata are never matched, and cancel_all is now documented as
trusted process-wide supervision rather than a tenant control.

 pool

Adds a release_all method to CompletionRouter that releases every active
receipt so another router can retry pending records immediately, and a
matching method on CompletionRouterPool that releases claims across all
cached routers without clearing the pool. The pool snapshots routers
before store I/O so the mutex is not held during backend access, and a
new Release error variant surfaces failures while leaving affected

Subject: [PATCH 0260/1076] feat(completions): add resilient record with memory
 fallback

Adds record_resilient, which retries a durable write and, when the caller
explicitly allows a process-local scope, migrates the router to an in-memory
store after the retries fail. The migration only proceeds once the existing
records are readable and copyable, so a failed migration leaves the durable
store active and surfaces the error instead of silently dropping data.

Subject: [PATCH 0262/1076] feat(subagent): add detached pause notice delivery

Detached subagents can now emit independently deliverable pause notices
without consuming the task's terminal completion slot. Each notice gets a
unique record id derived from a stable per-task prefix, so a child may pause
more than once and hosts can withdraw pending notices when the task is
collected.

 colliding with task id

Adds a test asserting that pause notices for the same task get distinct
ids under a shared prefix and that recording a completion afterwards
leaves the terminal task id free. Exports the prefix helper so the test
can assert on the generated ids.

target when the parent lifecycle is already closed. The epoch is carried
onto pause and terminal records so later records can be tied to the

CompletionOrigin::new now takes the completion router and admits a child
generation for the parent key, storing the resulting parent epoch on the
origin and stamping it onto completion records. This rejects spawns whose
parent lifecycle is already closed instead of silently recording them.

Subject: [PATCH 0268/1076] fix(subagent): record pause notice when child
 awaits user

The detached status watcher now calls record_pause when a child enters
AwaitingUser, so the parent receives a distinct pause notice instead of
nothing. Tests were updated to assert the pause record and to cover
parent generation tracking across cancel and resume.

The in-memory completion store now generates a unique identity string and
exposes it through the new coordination_identity method. This lets callers
distinguish separate store instances when coordinating parent gates.

Subject: [PATCH 0273/1076] test(subagent): update completion origin
 construction in overflow test

The completion origin helper now takes a router and returns an optional
origin, so the test builds a router and unwraps the nested result to keep
the overflow artifact assertion working.

The status watcher now borrows the question field when matching on the

Subject: [PATCH 0280/1076] feat(completions): follow store migration in queued
 admissions

CompletionAdmission now holds a shared handle to the router's live store
slot instead of a fixed store reference, so queued items admitted before a
durable-store replacement resolve against the replacement once migration
completes. The router publishes the new store under a write lock and gates
existing parents during migration to keep queue-to-turn transfers
linearized.

Subject: [PATCH 0281/1076] test(completions): cover queued admission across
 store replacement

Adds a router test asserting that a queued followup is still admitted after the store is replaced when no cancellation marker is present. This complements the existing cancellation case by confirming the non-cancelled path preserves queued work.

Subject: [PATCH 0283/1076] fix(completions): fail closed on admissions racing
 a store migration

Admission now snapshots the store through the router and rechecks that the
snapshot is still current before returning a permit, so an admission racing a
store migration fails closed instead of binding to a stale store. The
admission slot tracks a migrating flag and publishes the replacement on drop,
which avoids holding the slot lock while waiting on durable parent gates.

Subject: [PATCH 0284/1076] feat(run_queue): defer items whose admission should
 be retried

Admission failures can now be classified as retryable, in which case the
item is put back at the front of its lane instead of being dropped. The
one-at-a-time path also scans the whole lane so a deferred item no longer
blocks the items behind it.

Subject: [PATCH 0285/1076] fix(run_queue): validate admission batch keys
 before acquiring permits

Completion admission now recomputes the batch key from the current store
snapshot and rejects acquisition when it no longer matches the key the
queue recorded, so permits are not granted against a store that was
swapped or is migrating. Lane counts are also read directly from the
locked queue state instead of via a separate status call.

+# Plan: move standard tools into TinyAgents and add gated `exec`
+
+This plan implements `senamakel/tinyagents#65`, which is part of
+`tinyhumansai/openhuman#8088`. It covers the whole leaf: moving the
+`tinytools-std` implementation families and their tests into
+`tinyagents-harness-tools`, adding shell and install tools behind generic host
+ports, moving the plan-review and media-artifact tool wrappers found by the
+OpenHuman core-shrink audit, and removing the harness's last dependency on
+`tinytools-std`.
+
+The implementation belongs in TinyAgents. `tinytools` remains the protocol,
+types, and policy vocabulary owner; `tinyagents-harness` owns the agent loop,
+portable runtime utilities, and multimodal resolution; `tinyagents-harness-tools`
+owns reusable tool implementations; OpenHuman keeps the concrete policy,
+approval, sandbox, audit, plan-review, and artifact-storage adapters for its
+later #213 integration. No OpenHuman type or dependency is introduced here.
+
+## Starting state and source audit
+
+The plan was prepared against TinyAgents `aca9fd54666ce8fdcc02ae4d6499baa2a3354cd5`
+on branch `epic-8088-65-harness-tools`. Issue #65 is open and has no comments.
+OpenHuman audit comment 6254297338 adds three rows to the issue's original
+scope: `sandbox/shell_progress.rs`, `plan_review/tool.rs`, and
+`media/generation/artifact_tool.rs`. The OpenHuman task #213 will consume these
+new generic APIs later; it does not block this crate-local change.
+
+The current `tinytools-std` public modules are `detect_tools`, `file_state`,
+`filesystem`, `network`, `sanitize`, `timeout`, and `url_guard`. The prior
+`tinytools#4` change already moved `sanitize` into `tinytools`; do not copy it
+back. The harness currently references `tinytools-std` only from
+`crates/tinyagents-harness/src/multimodal/resolve.rs` and its tests, for
+`url_guard`. That is the only dependency edge that would otherwise prevent
+removing `tinytools-std` from the harness manifest.
+
+The important dependency shape is:
+
+```text
+tinyagents-harness-tools ──depends on──> tinyagents-harness ──does not depend on──> harness-tools
+```
+
+Do not reverse this edge. Move the shared URL-validation implementation into
+an unconditional `tinyagents-harness::url_guard` module. Multimodal resolution
+uses it directly and `harness-tools/net` consumes it through its existing
+dependency on `tinyagents-harness`. This removes the optional
+`tinytools-std` dependency without creating a crate cycle or adding a shim
+crate. The module must retain the current `ValidatedUrl`, validation,
+DNS-resolution, public-address checks, and exact address-pinning contract;
+preserve all URL-guard tests with the move.
+
+Before coding, re-read the current source and tests from the exact parent
+checkout that the OpenHuman #213 adapter will use. In particular inspect:
+
+| Current OpenHuman source | Behavior to preserve / destination |
+| --- | --- |
+| `crates/openhuman-core/src/tools/impl/system/shell.rs` and sibling `shell_tests*.rs` | `shell` tool metadata, schema, output limits, command analysis and policy call order, sandbox/backend selection, audit, progress, cancellation, and errors; rename the generic tool to `exec` |
+| `tools/impl/system/shell_support.rs`, `shell_description.rs` | Shell descriptions, argv/environment helpers, timeout text, exit-124 attribution, status mapping, and output formatting |
+| `tools/impl/system/install_tool.rs` and `install_tool_tests.rs` | Package validation, allowed managers and exact argv, interactive/feature/autonomy/rate checks, timeout, output cap, and error messages |
+| `tools/schema_cache.rs` | `static_schema!` and parse-once embedded JSON behavior |
+| `sandbox/shell_progress.rs` and `shell_progress_tests.rs` | Byte counting, bounded last-line tracking, heartbeat interval/text, and context progress events |
+| `plan_review/tool.rs` and tests | Tool contract and current behavior; the host's gate/event state machine is behind `PlanReviewPort` |
+| `media/generation/artifact_tool.rs` and tests | Inner-tool metadata/results, multiple files, blob/path handling, artifact errors, markdown replacement, and result preservation; host filing/storage is behind `ArtifactFiling` |
+
+The tests described in issue #65 are the source of truth for behavior. Copy
+them with their assertions and fixtures, then adapt only test imports and
+host-owned fakes to the new ports. Do not copy OpenHuman security policy,
+`SecurityPolicy`, `AuditLogger`, TinyBox/TinyBus contracts, artifact stores,
+`Production`, SaaS switches, Docker/TinyBox selection, or OpenHuman context
+types into TinyAgents. The generic tool asks its injected ports; OpenHuman's
+later adapter implements those ports. Keep the existing host's approval gate
+and turn routing in the host. The tool must still run `ExecGate::authorize`
+inside `execute` immediately before invoking the backend, so a denied policy
+gate never spawns a process even if the outer approval gate let the call reach
+the tool.
+
+## Contract to establish before porting
+
+Put public seams in `crates/tinyagents-harness-tools/src/exec/ports.rs`,
+`plan_review/port.rs`, and `media/artifact_filing.rs`. Keep the port types free
+of host-specific dependencies. These definitions are complete contracts for
+the implementation; adapt names only if the inspected current
+`ToolRunContext` or media-output types require a mechanical signature change.
+
+### `exec` host boundary
+
+`ExecGate` decides whether an operation may proceed and owns host audit
+recording. Its authorization call is awaited before backend execution. It
+returns a permit only for an allowed call; a denial is returned to the model
+as a stable `ToolResult::error` and does not call `ExecBackend`. The host can
+use `ToolRunContext::host_extension()` to read its own turn state without
+TinyAgents importing or downcasting to a host type.

+    ) -> Result<ExecPermit, ExecDenied>;
+
+    fn record(&self, event: ExecAuditEvent);
+}
+
+#[derive(Debug, Clone)]
+pub struct ExecRequest {
+    pub program: OsString,
+    pub args: Vec<OsString>,
+    pub action_dir: PathBuf,
+    pub environment: BTreeMap<OsString, OsString>,
+    pub timeout: Option<Duration>,
+    pub shell_command: Option<String>,
+}
+

+pub struct ExecOutput {
+    pub stdout: Vec<u8>,
+    pub stderr: Vec<u8>,
+    pub exit_code: Option<i32>,
+    pub timed_out: bool,
+}
+
+#[async_trait]
+pub trait ExecBackend: Send + Sync {
+    async fn execute(
+        &self,
+        request: ExecRequest,
+        context: Option<&dyn ToolRunContext>,
+        progress: Option<ExecProgress>,
+    ) -> anyhow::Result<ExecOutput>;
+}
+```
+
+`ExecOperation` is input to authorization/audit. `ExecRequest` is the
+backend-neutral launched process request. `shell_command` is only populated
+for the shell operation, where the backend chooses the host's configured shell;
+install always uses `program` plus separate `args`, with no shell interpolation.
+The permit supplies the authorized working directory and environment. The
+backend receives the original tool context so the host implementation can
+select native, sandbox, Docker, TinyBox, or SaaS execution using its own
+existing rules. `ExecProgress` is the cloneable generic output meter, not a
+host type; it provides `record(&[u8])` and `snapshot() -> (u64, Option<String>)`.
+The adapter feeds it for both stdout and stderr chunks. A completed or denied
+operation is audited once; process launch failures are audited as unsuccessful.
+
+The shell result conversion must preserve the current behavior: output is
+decoded lossily as UTF-8; each stdout/stderr stream is capped at 1 MiB at a
+valid UTF-8 boundary with the existing truncation marker; the tool's
+`max_result_size_chars` remains 30,000; successful stderr is appended as
+`[stderr]`; nonzero/signal exit uses the current `tinytools::command_failure`
+mapping; exit 124 adds the existing “command's own timeout” note; and an
+explicit tool timeout produces the current timeout message including captured
+stdout and stderr. Docker/module output uses the same conversion. The existing
+Python UTF-8 environment defaults and caller overrides remain unchanged.
+
+The built-in process backend must own child cleanup. Every timeout, dropped
+execution future, and cancellation path kills the entire process group and
+reaps the child before returning/dropping. Keep the existing `timeout`
+settings and `output_or_kill` semantics. The generic `ExecBackend` may be
+host-provided, but the crate's native backend tests must prove descendants do
+not survive timeout or cancellation. The authorization denial test uses a fake
+backend with an invocation counter and asserts zero calls after denial.
+
+### Plan-review port
+
+`RequestPlanReviewTool` owns only parsing, public tool metadata, and mapping the
+resolution to the existing stable result text. The port owns the host review
+surface, user interaction, event publication, expiry, plan-mode check, and
+non-interactive policy. A caller without an installed port fails closed with
+an actionable error; it must not silently auto-approve. The host adapter can
+preserve OpenHuman's non-interactive auto-approve rule explicitly.
+
+```rust
+use async_trait::async_trait;
+
+#[derive(Debug, Clone, PartialEq, Eq)]
+pub struct PlanReviewRequest {
+    pub summary: String,
+    pub steps: Vec<String>,
+    pub tool_call_id: Option<String>,
+}
+
+#[derive(Debug, Clone, PartialEq, Eq)]
+pub enum PlanReviewResolution {
+    Approve,
+    Reject,
+    Revise { feedback: String },
+}
+
+#[async_trait]
+pub trait PlanReviewPort: Send + Sync {
+    async fn request_review(
+        &self,
+        request: PlanReviewRequest,
+        context: Option<&dyn tinytools::ToolRunContext>,
+    ) -> Result<PlanReviewResolution, String>;
+}
+```
+
+The tool keeps `request_plan_review`, `PermissionLevel::None`, no external
+effect, and an unbounded timeout because the port's review deadline is
+authoritative. It trims summary and nonempty string steps exactly as the source
+does. Preserve the approve/reject/revise result wording and make the port's
+missing/expired/error result fail closed; never turn port errors into approval.
+
+### Media artifact filing port
+
+The generic wrapper keeps the inner tool's name, description, schema, policy,
+permissions, scope, category, result content, and progress behavior. It parses
+each JSON result's `artifacts` array and invokes the injected `ArtifactFiling`
+port once per recognizable output. It does not store files, create product
+artifact records, or depend on TinyArtifacts/OpenHuman.
+
+```rust
+use async_trait::async_trait;
+use std::path::PathBuf;
+
+#[derive(Debug, Clone, PartialEq, Eq)]
+pub struct GeneratedArtifact {
+    pub path: PathBuf,
+    pub kind: String,
+    pub media_type: Option<String>,
+    pub bytes: Option<u64>,
+    pub title: String,
+    pub tool_call_id: Option<String>,
+}
+
+#[derive(Debug, Clone, PartialEq, Eq)]
+pub struct FiledArtifact {
+    pub id: String,
+    pub path: String,
+}
+
+#[async_trait]
+pub trait ArtifactFiling: Send + Sync {
+    async fn file(&self, generated: GeneratedArtifact) -> Result<FiledArtifact, String>;
+}
+```
+
+The wrapper replaces only the entry's `path`, adds `artifact_id` on success,
+or adds `artifact_error` on a per-entry failure; it keeps processing later
+entries and leaves unrecognized shapes untouched. It rewrites matching source
+paths in `markdown_formatted`. Keep the `n > 1` title suffix and 60-character
+prompt title cap. OpenHuman's later adapter implements `ArtifactFiling` and
+retains the existing versioning, trusted-file-root checks, blob cleanup, and
+reference allowlist policy.
+
+## Bite-sized implementation tasks
+
+Complete these in order. Each task can be a separate commit; do not combine or
+squash checkpoints. Every changed Rust test stays in the repository's sibling
+`*_tests.rs` convention and begins with `use super::*;`. No inline test modules,
+`tests.rs`, `test.rs`, or `<module>_test.rs`. Ported tests retain the original
+assertions. Tests must use fakes or loopback listeners and never call a real
+third-party service.
+
+### 1. Move the shared URL guard and detach the harness from `tinytools-std`
+
+Files: `crates/tinyagents-harness/src/url_guard.rs` (new),
+`crates/tinyagents-harness/src/lib.rs`,
+`crates/tinyagents-harness/src/multimodal/resolve.rs`,
+`crates/tinyagents-harness/src/multimodal/resolve_tests.rs`,
+`crates/tinyagents-harness/Cargo.toml`,
+`crates/tinyagents-harness-tools/Cargo.toml`.
+
+Move `vendor/tinytools/crates/tinytools-std/src/url_guard/{mod.rs,mod_tests.rs}`
+to the harness module and its sibling tests. Preserve its full implementation
+and tests, adjusting crate paths only. Export `pub mod url_guard;` from the
+harness root. Change multimodal resolution and tests to use
+`crate::url_guard`. Update the public docs so the SSRF rules and DNS pinning
+contract name the new owner. Remove the optional `tinytools-std` dependency and
+the `dep:tinytools-std` edge from the harness `multimodal` feature. Do not add
+the URL module to `harness-tools`; its `net` module imports the utility from
+its existing harness dependency.
+
+Red/green: run the focused `tinyagents-harness` URL guard and multimodal
+resolve tests before the move and record their baseline; after the move run the
+same tests plus `cargo tree -p tinyagents-harness -e normal` and confirm no
+`tinytools-std` edge remains. This is a relocation, so compare every test
+assertion and fixture, not just the test count.
+
+### 2. Add feature gates and port all remaining standard tools
+
+Files: `crates/tinyagents-harness-tools/Cargo.toml`,
+`crates/tinyagents-harness-tools/src/lib.rs`,
+new `src/fs/`, `src/net/`, and `src/exec/` modules; remove the harness's
+`tinytools-std` manifest entry. Add opt-in `fs`, `net`, and `exec` features;
+preserve the existing `default = ["todos", "goals", "skills"]` behavior.
+Make dependencies optional at the narrowest family feature that uses them.
+The `fs` feature owns filesystem/search/git/file-state helpers and their
+dependencies, `net` owns reqwest/futures/sha helpers and uses
+`tinyagents_harness::url_guard`, and `exec` owns process, timeout, and
+`detect_tools` dependencies. Preserve target-specific Unix/Windows
+dependencies. Do not make a new feature activate an unrelated old default.
+
+Move all `tinytools-std` files except `sanitize` with their fixtures and tests,
+preserving modules and public APIs under `tinyagents_harness_tools::{fs,net,exec}`:
+

+
+The source map is directory-to-directory, with file contents preserved
+mechanically. Before deleting the source dependency, search all workspace
+members and examples for `tinytools_std` and `tinytools-std`; replace each
+actual implementation import with the new owning crate/module. Do not retain a
+compatibility re-export in TinyTools. Check every former `tinytools-std` public
+item and test/fixture is accounted for; `sanitize` is the only intentional
+retirement from the source crate because tinytools#4 owns it now.
+
+At the end of this task, these must compile independently:
+
+```sh
+cargo check -p tinyagents-harness-tools --no-default-features --features fs
+cargo check -p tinyagents-harness-tools --no-default-features --features net
+cargo check -p tinyagents-harness-tools --no-default-features --features exec
+cargo check -p tinyagents-harness-tools --no-default-features
+```
+
+The final command proves a disabled-tools build remains lean and does not
+accidentally rely on a new module's imports. Add or update crate docs showing
+the three features and their public module paths.
+
+### 3. Establish `ExecGate`, backend, result, and progress contract
+
+Files: `crates/tinyagents-harness-tools/src/exec/ports.rs`,
+`exec/progress.rs`, `exec/types.rs`, `exec/mod.rs`, plus sibling
+`ports_tests.rs` and `progress_tests.rs`.
+
+Implement the contract above with imports and derives exactly as shown. `Exec`
+types are public through `exec`; the progress meter itself is cloneable and
+thread-safe and follows the current `ShellOutputMeter` behavior: count bytes
+from both streams, process `\n` and `\r` as line endings, retain a maximum
+1,024 characters of pending line and only the last complete nonempty line of
+up to 120 characters, and recover poisoned mutexes with `into_inner()`. Keep
+the 15-second interval and exact progress messages (`running Ns · no output
+yet`, byte/KB/MB figures, optional last line). The progress wrapper reports
+through `ToolRunContext::report_progress` when context is present and performs
+no ticker task otherwise.
+
+Tests use a fake `ExecGate` and `ExecBackend` to prove the public seam is
+object-safe, thread-safe, and that no-context calls work. For this API-addition
+task, the expected first red is compile failure because the public types do
+not exist yet; it is not a behavioral bug regression. In task 4, first add
+the required denial-before-backend test and verify its assertion fails against
+an implementation that calls the backend before authorization, then implement
+the ordered call sequence and confirm it passes.
+
+### 4. Port `shell` as `ExecTool` and map the host contract
+
+Files: `crates/tinyagents-harness-tools/src/exec/tool.rs`,
+`exec/tool_tests.rs`, `exec/shell_support.rs`,
+`exec/shell_support_tests.rs`, `exec/shell_description.rs`, and static schema
+JSON beside the tool. Copy `shell.rs`, `shell_support.rs`,
+`shell_description.rs`, and the source behavior tests from the OpenHuman
+checkout into this module. Rename the tool's public struct to `ExecTool` and
+wire it through required injected `Arc<dyn ExecGate>` and
+`Arc<dyn ExecBackend>` fields. It is named `exec` (wire identity), preserving
+the shell schema (`command`, optional `category`, `timeout_secs`), exact shell
+description for POSIX/cmd flavors supplied as a generic `ShellFlavor`,
+`PermissionLevel::Execute`, unbounded default timeout, and 30,000-character
+result cap.
+
+Execution order is a contract and has a focused test: parse/validate the
+command; form `ExecAuthorizationRequest`; await `ExecGate::authorize`; on
+denial map the gate reason to the source refusal result and return without
+calling backend or recording an allowed completion; on permit, build
+backend-neutral `ExecRequest` from the permit, call the injected backend with
+the call context and output meter, map output to `ToolResult`, then call
+`ExecGate::record` exactly once with allowed=true and the final success flag.
+On backend launch error, return the stable sandbox-execution failure result
+and record an unsuccessful result. Do not call policy a second time after
+approval; the host's gate must perform its final revalidation immediately
+before spawn. Host-specific authorization must deny before the backend's
+process creation.
+
+Port/retain behavior assertions for schema/name/permission/timeout; output
+Unicode and per-stream truncation boundaries; success with/without stderr;
+nonzero exit and signal mapping; exit 124 note; explicit timeout text and
+captured output; progress heartbeats and last-line accounting; environment
+defaults/override; native, sandbox, Docker and TinyBox adapter fixture results
+where they are representable through `ExecOutput`. Keep adapter-specific
+scenario tests in OpenHuman #213; the TinyAgents suite tests only fake ports
+and the in-crate native backend. Verify installer argv is not routed through
+shell string construction.
+
+### 5. Port process supervision and argv-only install
+
+Files: `crates/tinyagents-harness-tools/src/exec/install_tool.rs`,
+`exec/install_tool_tests.rs`, and `exec/native_backend.rs` with its sibling
+`native_backend_tests.rs` if the existing timeout module does not fully cover
+the behavior after relocation.
+
+Copy the install tool into the new `exec` module as `InstallTool`, requiring
+the same injected gate/backend as `ExecTool`. Preserve the manager allowlist
+and each exact binary/argv prefix; validate package names against the source
+ASCII set and 200-byte cap; reject missing PATH executables; preserve the
+interactive approval, feature-enabled, autonomy, and action-budget checks by
+representing these as `ExecGate` denials in the host adapter, not as
+TinyAgents policy. The tool creates `ExecOperation::Install`, awaits the gate,
+then gives the backend an `ExecRequest` with `shell_command: None`, exact
+separate `program` and `args`, workspace action dir, 300-second timeout, and
+authorized environment. There is no `sh -c`, `cmd /C`, or concatenated argv
+path for installs. Keep source error/output/truncation wording.
+
+The native backend configures child process groups, streams stdout and stderr
+into the bounded progress meter and captured output, applies explicit timeout,
+kills the process group and reaps on timeout, cancellation, and dropped future,
+and returns a completed `ExecOutput`. On Windows use the existing
+platform-supported process cleanup path; do not claim process-tree cleanup
+where the platform does not provide it. Tests use a temporary executable
+script/process and assert: only the expected argv reaches it; malformed
+package inputs never launch; denied calls have a zero backend count; timeout
+terminates a spawned child and descendant and waits for the child; cancel/drop
+also terminates and reaps; separate stdout/stderr truncation remains Unicode
+safe; and exit status survives. No real package manager or network install is
+run.
+
+Port the OpenHuman `install_tool` behavioral tests with fake ports. Write
+behavioral RED first for injection attempts in the package parameter and
+denial-before-spawn, then make the tests green. The process timeout/cancel
+cases must fail if only the direct child is killed or if the child is not
+waited/reaped.
+
+### 6. Move parse-once schema utility without the host module tree
+
+Files: `crates/tinyagents-harness-tools/src/schema.rs` (or
+`src/schema_cache.rs`), `src/lib.rs`, and sibling schema tests. Copy the
+`static_schema!` macro and `parse_embedded` semantics from OpenHuman's
+`tools/schema_cache.rs`, including call-site panic text and cloned
+`LazyLock<Value>`. Export the macro and parse helper only as required by
+downstream tool crates; do not create an OpenHuman-shaped `tools` tree. Move
+the shell and install schema JSON into their respective exec tool directories,
+use the macro in both tools, and retain malformed-schema and parsed-once/value
+tests. No dynamic schema cache or host type is introduced.
+
+### 7. Move plan review and media artifact wrappers behind ports
+
+Files: `crates/tinyagents-harness-tools/src/plan_review/{mod.rs,port.rs,tool.rs,tool_tests.rs}`,
+`src/media/{mod.rs,artifact_filing.rs,artifact_tool.rs,artifact_tool_tests.rs}`,
+and `src/lib.rs`.
+
+Port `RequestPlanReviewTool` to `plan_review::RequestPlanReviewTool` with an
+`Arc<dyn PlanReviewPort>`. Preserve tool name, schema, permission,
+external-effect flag, unbounded timeout, argument trimming, and result text.
+The port owns interactive/noninteractive policy, review event delivery,
+plan-mode gating, and its own expiry. If absent or failing, return a clear
+error and never approve. Tests use a deterministic fake port to assert request
+fields, preserved resolution-to-result mapping, missing-port fail-closed
+behavior, and that feedback is not silently discarded.
+
+Port `MediaArtifactTool<T>` to `media::MediaArtifactTool<T>` with an injected
+`Arc<dyn ArtifactFiling>`. Remove OpenHuman `Production`, artifact store,
+TinyArtifacts, TinyStorageDrivers, file-root, blob-store, approval-chat, and
+product reference-allowlist dependencies. Keep the generic output walk,
+per-entry continuation, ID/error insertion, path rewrite, title cap/suffix,
+and all `Tool` metadata/progress delegation. Where a generated `path` is a
+blob key, pass that key as `PathBuf` to the port unchanged; the host filing
+implementation decides how to fetch it from its own blob store. Tests use
+fake filers and retain the source tests for single/multiple outputs, success,
+failure isolation, unknown result shape, markdown path replacement, and
+per-call progress reporting. OpenHuman's file-root/trusted-reference and
+blob-cleanup checks remain host-adapter responsibilities in #213.
+
+### 8. Public API, manifest cleanup, docs, and migration audit
+
+Files: all previous changed files plus crate README/docs if applicable.
+
+Remove `tinytools-std` from every workspace package manifest and from
+`Cargo.lock` through Cargo resolution. Keep TinyTools' definitions-only
+boundary intact and do not touch the TinyTools gitlink. Search the full
+TinyAgents workspace and test fixtures for `tinytools_std`,
+`tinytools-std`, `tinytools_std::sanitize`, OpenHuman module names, and
+OpenHuman crate paths. The only remaining `sanitize` imports must resolve to
+the already-merged TinyTools API; there must be no `tinytools-std` dependency
+or compatibility path. Update harness-tools README with feature selection,
+ports, constructors, and the distinction between reusable tool mechanisms
+and host authorization/storage.
+
+## Final verification
+
+Run these in the TinyAgents checkout after all tasks, through
+`scripts/ci-cancel-aware.sh` for long commands. Do not export
+`CARGO_TARGET_DIR` or place build output under `/tmp`.
+
+```sh
+cargo fmt --all -- --check
+cargo check --workspace --all-targets
+cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
+cargo test --workspace
+cargo check -p tinyagents-harness-tools --no-default-features
+cargo check -p tinyagents-harness-tools --no-default-features --features fs
+cargo check -p tinyagents-harness-tools --no-default-features --features net
+cargo check -p tinyagents-harness-tools --no-default-features --features exec
+cargo tree -p tinyagents-harness -e normal
+cargo tree -p tinyagents-harness-tools -e normal
+cargo machete
+```
+
+Also re-run focused `tinyagents-harness` multimodal/URL guard tests and the
+`tinyagents-harness-tools` tests for each feature, both no-default and
+combined-feature builds. Confirm the resolved dependency tree has no
+`tinytools-std` package. Review copied tests against source and report any
+assertion that cannot be retained with the reason; do not silently drop
+coverage. Formatting, check, clippy, workspace tests, feature-disabled builds,
+and dependency audit are required before the TinyAgents PR. The OpenHuman
+adapter and its integration tests are separate work in #213 and are not
+claimed by this leaf.

Subject: [PATCH 0287/1076] test(completions): add gate acquisition hook to
 blocking store

Extend the BlockingTryList test double so acquire_parent_gate can be
paused on demand, letting tests observe and control the moment a parent
gate claim is attempted. This makes it possible to exercise races that
depend on the ordering of gate acquisition against other store
operations.

Subject: [PATCH 0288/1076] test(completions): make blocking store pause list
 on demand

The BlockingTryList test double now wraps its inner store in an Arc and
only blocks in list when a pause flag is set, so tests can control when
enumeration stalls instead of always blocking. This lets the migration
race test coordinate the record write against the store swap without
deadlocking on unrelated list calls.

Subject: [PATCH 0291/1076] test(completions): cover parent state migration
 under source gate

Adds a router test asserting that store migration copies parent state only
after the source gates are acquired, and that a cancellation racing the
migration still leaves the parent without an admitted child generation.
The remaining edits are rustfmt reflows with no behaviour change.

 exec gates plan

Document the `media` feature gate for the media artifact filing port, including its optional `tinyinference-video` dependency and the constraint against enabling `tinyagents-harness/multimodal` or pulling in `flate2`, `tar`, `zip`, or reqwest. Also record the factory signature change to accept `Option<&dyn ToolRunContext>` so host adapters can downcast their own approval/chat context.

Add non-default media and plan-review features so migrating OpenHuman-only tools does not widen the defaults, with matching compile checks.

Subject: [PATCH 0297/1076] docs(plans): clarify file_state test consolidation
 in exec gates plan

The source-root map now lists the file_state production files explicitly and
specifies that the two source test files merge into a single sibling test
module rather than copying the old test/mod.rs aggregator. This documents how
the consolidated test file should be wired into file_state/mod.rs and what it
must retain.

The verification commands now cover the media and plan-review features
individually and in combination with the other tool features, plus a
dependency tree for the no-default-features build. These additions close
gaps in the gate list so every feature and its interactions are checked.

Subject: [PATCH 0300/1076] test(completions): extend router test double and
 rework migration test

The FailingList test double now forwards the full set of claim and
insert operations to its inner store so it stays in sync with the
CompletionStore trait. The migration test was also reworked to seed the
source store directly and pause listing after the write, removing the
queue round-trip that previously set up the pending record.

Subject: [PATCH 0302/1076] fix(completions): re-snapshot store after acquiring
 parent gates

The migration previously reused the initial listing to drive the
rewrite, so a parent added while gates were being acquired could be
processed without its gate held. The store is now listed again after
gating and the migration aborts with a retry error if any record's
parent is not among the acquired gates.

Subject: [PATCH 0303/1076] fix(completions): use discovered records when
 checking parent gates

The router now filters against the records returned by discovery instead of re-listing the store, so the parent gate check sees the same snapshot that was just discovered. This avoids a redundant store read and keeps the gating decision consistent with the discovered set.

-`ExecOperation` is input to authorization/audit. `ExecRequest` is the
-backend-neutral launched process request. `shell_command` is only populated
-for the shell operation, where the backend chooses the host's configured shell;
-install always uses `program` plus separate `args`, with no shell interpolation.
-`ExecBackend::shell_flavor` supplies the model-facing shell description and
-parameter text. The permit supplies the authorized working directory and
-environment. The backend receives the original tool context so the host
-implementation can select native, sandbox, Docker, TinyBox, or SaaS execution
-using its own existing rules. `ExecProgress` is the cloneable generic output meter, not a
-host type; it provides `record(&[u8])` and `snapshot() -> (u64, Option<String>)`.
-The adapter feeds it for both stdout and stderr chunks. A denied operation is
-recorded once with `allowed = false` before returning; a permitted operation
-is recorded once after completion with `allowed = true` and the final success
-flag. Process launch failures are audited as unsuccessful.
-
-The shell result conversion must preserve the current behavior: output is
-decoded lossily as UTF-8; each stdout/stderr stream is capped at 1 MiB at a
-valid UTF-8 boundary with the existing truncation marker; the tool's
-`max_result_size_chars` remains 30,000; successful stderr is appended as
-`[stderr]`; nonzero/signal exit uses the current `tinytools::command_failure`
-mapping; exit 124 adds the existing “command's own timeout” note; and an
-explicit tool timeout produces the current timeout message including captured
-stdout and stderr. Docker/module output uses the same conversion. The existing
-Python UTF-8 environment defaults and caller overrides remain unchanged.
-
-The built-in process backend must own child cleanup. Every timeout, dropped
-execution future, and cancellation path kills the entire process group and
-reaps the child before returning/dropping. Keep the existing `timeout`
-settings and `output_or_kill` semantics. The generic `ExecBackend` may be
-host-provided, but the crate's native backend tests must prove descendants do
-not survive timeout or cancellation. The authorization denial test uses a fake
-backend with an invocation counter and asserts zero calls after denial.
+These signatures are the actual `tinytools::Tool` hooks to implement and
+forward: `prepare_authorization(&Value) -> anyhow::Result<Option<Value>>` and
+`external_effect_with_args(&Value) -> bool`. Do not invent a second authorization
+hook or narrow classification to a command prefix. `ExecTool` and
+`InstallTool` delegate those hooks to the injected gate; the host adapter
+reuses TinyBox analysis for `prepare_authorization` and returns its JSON
+analysis exactly as the source shell does. `authorize` is a separate final
+revalidation and must occur immediately before dispatch.
+
+The host gate returns a permit only after its approval, autonomy, rate,
+workspace, and other policy checks succeed. The permit carries the authorized
+backend selection and opaque capability through `ExecRequest`; the backend
+must use that selection and capability rather than independently choosing a
+more permissive route. OpenHuman retains authority over native/sandbox/Docker/
+TinyBox/SaaS selection. A SaaS-unavailable refusal and Docker configuration or
+preflight refusal are typed `Refused` outcomes before process creation; they
+are not policy denials and are not launch failures. `LaunchFailed` means a
+process-creation attempt failed. Audit exactly once for each call, recording
+gate denials as `authorized=false, process_attempted=false`, backend refusals
+as authorized but not attempted, launch failures as attempted, and completed
+processes with exit/timeout-derived success. Include the selected backend when
+a permit exists. Never represent a backend refusal as an allowed successful
+execution.
+
+The shell result conversion preserves current behavior: decode output lossily
+as UTF-8; cap each stream at 1 MiB at a valid UTF-8 boundary with the existing
+truncation marker; retain `max_result_size_chars = 30_000`; append successful
+stderr as `[stderr]`; use the current `tinytools::command_failure` mapping for
+nonzero/signal exits; append the source “command's own timeout” note for exit
+124; and retain explicit timeout text including captured stdout/stderr.
+`ExecBackendOutcome::Refused` maps to the matching existing source refusal
+text; launch failure maps to the stable sandbox-execution failure text. The
+Python UTF-8 defaults and caller overrides remain unchanged.
+
+The authorization tests assert a denied gate produces one denial audit event,
+zero backend calls, and no `process_attempted`; separate fake-backend tests
+assert SaaS refusal and Docker config/preflight refusal are typed refusals and
+never launches, launch failure is attempted/unsuccessful, and completed
+success records the chosen backend, attempted=true, and success=true. Preserve
+shell-analysis preparation and `external_effect_with_args` tests using source
+arguments, including empty and nonempty commands.

Expand the plan to spell out the plan-review resolution variants and their exact result strings, and to define a transport-free MediaJobProgress contract so the media wrapper needs no provider dependency. Also pass each invocation's ToolRunContext through to ArtifactFiling::file and correct the file_state test path.

Subject: [PATCH 0307/1076] docs(plans): expand exec gate and media routing
 test requirements

The plan now requires validating per-feature dependency graphs with cargo tree so media-only builds cannot pull in video or archive dependencies, and it specifies that the native backend must use ProcessCleanup scopes to await child cleanup on timeout and cancellation. A concurrent routing test was added to confirm each invocation observes its own ToolRunContext extension.

Subject: [PATCH 0312/1076] docs(plans): refine harness tools exec gates plan

Clarify the media progress contract so the provider-neutral state field is
documented as carrying the exact display state, and spell out the generic
MediaArtifactTool wrapper and its constructor. Replace the prose feature-boundary
claim with concrete shell checks over Cargo's resolved trees so the net and
media boundaries are actually verified.

Subject: [PATCH 0313/1076] feat(completions): add durable thread delivery
 leases

Introduce DurableThreadDeliveryLease and DurableThreadDeliveryLeases and
re-export them from the crate root so callers can hold thread delivery
leases that survive across restarts. The router tests were only
reformatted to satisfy rustfmt.

Subject: [PATCH 0314/1076] docs(plans): document all opt-in harness features
 in exec gates plan

The verification section now lists every opt-in feature (`fs`, `net`, `exec`, `plan-review`) alongside their public module paths and notes that default features are unchanged. This keeps the plan aligned with the full feature set rather than only the three originally mentioned.

Subject: [PATCH 0315/1076] docs(plans): clarify exec gate and process cleanup
 semantics

Refines the harness tools exec gates plan so gate denial and backend
preflight refusal are described as never attempting process creation, and
audit is recorded once per well-formed operation reaching the gate. Also
tightens timeout and cancellation test expectations around the owned
waiter acknowledgment and ProcessCleanup::wait() resolution.

Subject: [PATCH 0317/1076] docs(plans): clarify exec gate cleanup assertions

Rework the harness tools exec gate plan so tests assert that neither the
child nor its descendants remain alive and that captured pipes are closed
after cleanup. Cancellation tests now await ProcessCleanup::wait() and treat
its completion as the cleanup acknowledgement, avoiding a test-only hook.

Subject: [PATCH 0319/1076] docs(plans): clarify exec gate timeout and cleanup
 semantics

The plan now states that a timeout or dropped review resolves as the host's fail-closed Reject with expiry metadata, while a missing port or port error stays an error. It also specifies that timeout waits for the owned waiter's Reaped acknowledgment after process-group kill, pipe drain, and child reap.

The takeover test compared the new lease's epoch against the released lease's epoch, but the released lease no longer exposes a valid epoch after release. The epoch is now captured before releasing the first lease so the assertion compares against the value observed while the lease was still held.

Subject: [PATCH 0325/1076] docs(plans): clarify exec gate audit event
 expectations

The plan now specifies that each well-formed gate call records exactly one
audit event, detailing the expected fields for denial, backend refusal, launch
failure, and completed success or failure. Image/video configuration tests now
assert the exact configured kind and heartbeat label, catching metadata
borrowing from a temporary and accidental fallback to the image kind for video.

Subject: [PATCH 0326/1076] test(orchestration): cover fenced runtime turn
 commit after lease takeover

Adds a test verifying that a runtime session turn started under an old
thread lease fails at its transcript commit once the lease has been taken
over by a newer epoch. The dev-dependency on tinyagents-runtime and a
gated driver stub make the interleaving deterministic.

Subject: [PATCH 0327/1076] docs(plans): expand harness tool exec gate metadata
 coverage

The plan now requires metadata tests to cover scope, timeout, external-effect behavior, and result-size limits in addition to the existing fields, and to assert that every static and argument-based Tool declaration delegates to the retained instance. It also calls for verifying that name() and description() keep returning the retained instance's references after a factory returns a different temporary tool.

Replace the futures executor with a current-thread tokio runtime in the
router tests so the async paths under test run against the same reactor
they use in production.

Subject: [PATCH 0332/1076] test(tasks): defer assertions until after migration
 completes

The queue admission test now captures the deferred state and followup
count before dropping the guard and resuming the migration, then asserts
after the migration finishes. This avoids holding the deferred value
across the resume point so the assertions reflect the final state.

Subject: [PATCH 0333/1076] fix(completions): remove stale admission store
 check

The admission path no longer rejects permits when the store is
superseded, since the router already handles store migration. The
deadlock test now tolerates a slow take so it no longer fails when
admission is delayed past the timeout.

Subject: [PATCH 0335/1076] fix(completions): hold admission lock until parent
 gates are acquired

The migration path now keeps the admission slot guard alive while durable
parent gates are acquired, instead of releasing the lock immediately after
setting the migrating flag. This closes a race where admissions could slip
through between flagging migration and gating parents.

Subject: [PATCH 0337/1076] refactor(run_queue): replace retry_after_rejection
 with typed admission error

The QueueAdmission trait's boolean retry_after_rejection hook is replaced by a
QueueAdmissionError enum with Retry and Rejected variants, so callers match on
the failure reason directly instead of probing the capability a second time.
This makes the retry-versus-reject decision explicit at the acquisition site.

Subject: [PATCH 0338/1076] feat(run_queue): classify transient admission
 failures as retryable

Admission errors now distinguish transient conditions from outright
rejections, so a store migration racing an acquire retains the queued
item for the next boundary instead of dropping it. The separate
retry_after_rejection query is gone, since the classification is carried
in the acquire result itself.

Subject: [PATCH 0339/1076] test(completions): cover queue permit isolation
 across database domains

Adds a test asserting that a lifecycle admission permit issued for one
coordination domain does not authorize a store in a different domain that
shares the same scope and parent text. The existing shared-permit test now
uses explicit coordination domains so it exercises the intended aliasing
path rather than relying on a single cloned backend.

Subject: [PATCH 0340/1076] feat(completions): add coordination domain to
 completion store constructors

Adds host-configurable coordination domain variants for opening durable
completion stores, so independent backend handles pointing at the same
shared database can coordinate correctly. The existing constructors keep
their Arc-identity behavior and now document when the domain variants
should be used instead.

Subject: [PATCH 0341/1076] feat(tasks): export coordination-domain completion
 store helpers

Re-export the driver completion store constructors that accept a
coordination domain so callers outside the crate can open stores sharing a
single lifecycle admission domain. The driver tests now use these helpers
instead of building the stores inline.

The test now grabs each router's pending completion before cancelling the parent on router_b, so the assertions still see the entries that cancellation would otherwise clear.

+# Plan: move OpenHuman close and observability seams into TinyAgents
+
+Issue: [senamakel/tinyagents#64](https://github.com/senamakel/tinyagents/issues/64), part of [tinyhumansai/openhuman#8088](https://github.com/tinyhumansai/openhuman/issues/8088).
+
+This plan targets the current `epic/8088-tinyagents-slim` fork branch. It is based on the TinyAgents fork at `aca9fd54666ce8fdcc02ae4d6499baa2a3354cd5` and the OpenHuman super-worktree's current source. It does not assume future interfaces from issue #60 (session reuse), #63 (session phases), or OpenHuman #212. Recheck this plan against the merged #60 integration before starting implementation; merge/review intervening fork changes and adapt the plan without discarding either side's behavior.
+
+## Goal and boundaries
+
+Move generic close, turn outcome, journal, trace, no-progress ladder, and model-budget behavior from OpenHuman's TinyAgents adapter into `tinyagents-harness`. Keep OpenHuman-specific model sourcing, stop taxonomy/copy, recovery headroom, terminal-inference fast-halt policy, security and sandbox decisions, provider usage accounting, and persistence adapters in OpenHuman. No `openhuman_core` types or dependencies may enter TinyAgents.
+
+The current harness already owns `close.rs`, `turn_stop.rs`, `turn_outcome.rs`, `observability` (including `StoreEventJournal`), `no_progress`, and `cost::ModelBudget`. Treat existing harness implementations as the baseline and extend or consolidate them; do not duplicate equivalent algorithms under new names. Issue #64's “rows are gone” means the generic implementations and duplicate shims disappear from the specified OpenHuman source directories once the host adapts to existing/new upstream APIs.
+
+Required user-visible invariant: using OpenHuman's copy injection produces byte-for-byte identical checkpoint, deterministic final-close, and stop-summary output to current OpenHuman. Port the existing host golden assertions before deleting their source. Keep every behavior assertion unless the corresponding capability is expressly removed by this issue; none of the listed capabilities is being removed.
+
+## Repository-grounded ownership and dependencies
+
+| Existing OpenHuman source | Destination / action | Host behavior retained |
+|---|---|---|
+| `crates/openhuman-core/src/agent/session_host/driver/grounded_close.rs`: `RepairUsage`, `SummarizerSourceModel`, `classified_halt_close`, `repair_required_output`, close orchestration | Reuse/extend `crates/tinyagents-harness/src/close.rs`; move only generic close algorithms and output contracts | `TurnModelSource`, provider/model selection, temperatures, `AGENT_TURN_MAX_OUTPUT_TOKENS`, usage/cost recording, supplemental model trace, progress streaming, required-output host config and fallback placement choice |
+| `agent/session_host/turn_checkpoint.rs`: result truncation/rendering, harness-instruction matching, duplicate `CloseViolation`, deterministic checkpoint/final summary, repair and verifier prompt assembly | Reuse `harness::close`; delete duplicate helpers after call sites migrate | OpenHuman's `CloseCopy` implementation containing product strings and exact existing rendering behavior |
+| `agent/session_host/stop_summary.rs`: wrappers and product `StopReasonKind` plus renderer | `TurnStop` wrappers go away in favor of direct harness calls; generic stop rendering belongs in `harness::turn_stop` | Product stop taxonomy/fallback-class mapping and `StopCopy` implementation; host-facing summary facade may stay as a thin adapter if needed |
+| `agent/tinyagents/turn_outcome.rs`: `DeferredTurnTerminal` | `harness::turn_outcome` | Host outcome fields and dispatch/event projection |
+| `agent/tinyagents/journal.rs`: `TurnJournal` around `StoreEventJournal` | Generic journal facade/adapter in `harness::observability` over existing `StoreEventJournal` | `DispatchCtx`, request-to-run correlation, OpenHuman session event store, host read endpoints and serialization |
+| `agent/tinyagents/supplemental_trace.rs` | `harness::observability` | Provider pricing, host supplemental usage and selected model source only if not expressible by existing generic event/trace contract |
+| `agent/tinyagents/middleware/tool_outcome_capture.rs` | `harness::turn_outcome` | OpenHuman-specific result redaction/capping only if it is not already generic; preserve the actual captured arguments, error flag, content, and elapsed duration fields |
+| `agent/tinyagents/middleware/repeated_failure.rs`: classified-ladder driver | `harness::no_progress` | `HostFailurePolicy`, recovery classification/product copy, OpenHuman's additional recoverable-failure headroom, fast-halt policy, and host steering/sandbox effects |
+| `agent/tinyagents/budget.rs`: `ModelBudget` wrapper | `harness::cost::ModelBudget` | Host run-depth and policy budget installation |
+
+Current harness modules are already public at `tinyagents-harness/src/lib.rs` (`close`, `cost`, `no_progress`, `observability`, `turn_outcome`, `turn_stop`). The cost wrapper is already implemented at `src/cost/model_budget.rs`. `StoreEventJournal` is already implemented in `src/observability/mod.rs` on the generic `AppendStore` port. Avoid introducing a dependency cycle: harness may depend on `tinyagents-harness`'s own lower-level event/store interfaces, but must not depend on OpenHuman, RPC, TinyHumans, or host storage crates. The host's `DispatchCtx` and storage-backed `AppendStore` implementation stay on the host side.
+
+## Copy seams: complete API contract
+
+Expose host-injectable copy using owned, immutable values so the harness is product-neutral and the host can preserve every byte of existing wording. Add these public structs in `crates/tinyagents-harness/src/close.rs` and `turn_stop.rs`; derive `Debug, Clone, PartialEq, Eq` and keep fields public for construction by downstream hosts.

+    pub fn render(&self, reason: &str, groups: &[StopSummaryGroup]) -> String;
+}
+```
+
+The comment bodies above are signatures, not permission to leave `todo!()` or unimplemented methods. Implement each method in the same change. `StopSummaryGroup` is a new generic data record `{ name: String, success: bool, error: Option<String>, count: usize }`; it contains already-scrubbed display data, not raw tool arguments. The harness performs chronological grouping, last-eight selection, character truncation, and count formatting as it does today. `StopCopy` supplies only localized labels/sentences, with placeholder insertion performed by harness formatting. `CloseCopy` supplies the actual host instruction and headings, including the exact existing OpenHuman text. It must also include every literal that contributes to deterministic checkpoint/final summary output; do not merely translate the main headings and leave hard-coded English in the algorithm.
+
+Keep existing public `*_with_options` APIs source-compatible. Add `*_with_copy` variants that accept `&CloseCopy` or `&StopCopy`; old entry points delegate to `CloseCopy::english()` / `StopCopy::english()`. The exact function names should match the module's established naming (`build_deterministic_checkpoint_with_copy`, `build_deterministic_final_summary_with_copy`, `grounded_close_with_copy`, `render_stop_summary_with_copy`). The host call path must select the `with_copy` functions explicitly. `CloseViolation` remains one canonical harness enum with variants `NoReply`, `QuotedInstruction`, and `Unverified`; remove OpenHuman's duplicate and map no strings or public core types into the harness.
+
+## TDD implementation sequence
+
+Do each step as a small red/green/refactor slice. Rust tests must be sibling `*_tests.rs` files declared with `#[cfg(test)]` and `#[path = "<module>_tests.rs"] mod tests;`, start with `use super::*;`, and contain no inline tests. For behavior that already exists upstream, first add/port a test that exercises the required public behavior and fails for the actual gap; do not claim that a missing API alone is a behavioral regression.
+
+### 1. Establish copy compatibility before moving call sites
+
+Files: `crates/tinyagents-harness/src/close.rs`, `close_tests.rs`, `turn_stop.rs`, `turn_stop_tests.rs`, and corresponding `mod.rs` exports if needed.
+
+1. Port assertions from OpenHuman `agent/session_host/turn_checkpoint_tests.rs` for deterministic checkpoint, final summary, truncation and omission disclosure, repair instructions for all three violations, harness instruction quote detection, and exact final/checkpoint instruction content. Port `stop_summary_tests.rs` expected full strings, stop categories, grouping, scrubbing/truncation, last-eight groups, and hidden-call count. Assertions in the OpenHuman source are the golden source; retain exact expected strings.
+2. Add `CloseCopy` and `StopCopy`, their English defaults, and copy-aware APIs. Existing APIs delegate to defaults. Use a deliberately distinct custom-copy test as well as the OpenHuman golden; a default-only test would not prove injection works.
+3. Make the red test fail on a real mismatch, then implement. No host migration yet. Confirm old API tests still pass unchanged.
+
+### 2. Consolidate checkpoint and grounded close
+
+Files: `close.rs`, `close_tests.rs`; public paths remain `tinyagents_harness::close`.
+
+1. Inventory existing `close.rs` entry points before editing: `CloseToolResult`, `results_from_tool_outcomes`, truncation/rendering, deterministic builders, `CloseViolation`, repair config/options and usage callbacks, required-output repair, grounded close and fallback. Extend those APIs rather than creating parallel algorithms.
+2. Add focused tests for both checkpoint and final close with a custom `CloseCopy` and byte equality against the OpenHuman host golden. Cover successful grounded close, verification reject/unclear, no reply, quoted instruction, exactly one repair, deterministic fallback, deadline/cancellation, and provider usage callback on completed/failed calls.
+3. Preserve `RepairUsage` and `SummarizerSourceModel` in OpenHuman because both depend on host model sourcing, provider usage/pricing, correlation, and trace. The harness API must continue to accept `ChatModel<()>`, `ToolDialect`, native messages, `RequiredOutput`, a caller-supplied verifier prompt/repair copy, budget and deterministic fallback closure. Keep provider callbacks in `CloseRequestOptions`; do not make the harness calculate host billing.
+4. Preserve classified halt's no-provider-call path by expressing it through the generic deterministic summary path plus host-owned classification check. Do not move `"Stopping after "`, the product's classifier or that condition into the harness.
+
+### 3. Adopt generic turn-stop output and typed terminal outcome
+
+Files: `turn_stop.rs`, `turn_stop_tests.rs`, `turn_outcome.rs`, `turn_outcome_tests.rs`, `lib.rs` exports as needed.
+
+1. Add tests for `StopCopy` full-string output using the ported OpenHuman goldens and for custom labels. Keep all existing `TurnStop` classification and serde tests, especially content-free typed causes and legacy fallback behavior.
+2. Add `DeferredTurnTerminal` in `turn_outcome.rs` with the same ownership/lifecycle semantics as the host version: it owns the deferred terminal event and emits exactly once when committed; dropping an uncommitted value emits nothing. Test commit once, duplicate commit, and drop. Keep the event type in harness (`AgentEvent::TurnStopped`) and avoid host outcome structures.
+3. Host-specific `StopReasonKind::from_stop_note` / stable product keys remain in OpenHuman. `TurnStop` construction can call the existing generic `classify`, `classify_with_cause`, and `from_incomplete_reason`; product fallback closure stays supplied by OpenHuman. Remove only forwarding wrappers once all uses call canonical API.
+
+### 4. Move observability bridge behavior without moving host persistence
+
+Files: `observability/mod.rs`, `observability/mod_journal_tests.rs` and a new sibling `observability/turn_journal_tests.rs` only if the current test module cannot host focused coverage; update `observability/mod.rs` declarations. Host files: `agent/tinyagents/journal.rs`, `supplemental_trace.rs`.
+
+1. Add a harness-level `TurnJournal` facade over the existing `StoreEventJournal<A: AppendStore>`; it owns only generic run/thread lineage, append/read/flush composition. Its constructor takes the `Arc<dyn HarnessEventJournal>` and the `RunId`/`ThreadId` inputs that the current `TurnJournal` needs. Do not copy the backend `AppendStore` implementation or `DispatchCtx` correlation map.
+2. Add tests using the existing in-memory append store/journal: event ordering and offsets, lineage, flush visibility, readback, and merge ordering. Port every assertion in OpenHuman `journal_tests.rs` that describes these generic semantics; keep request correlation and session stream integration tests on the host.
+3. Move `SupplementalTrace` only if its remaining contract can be expressed using harness-owned `AgentEvent`, `GenerationEnrichment`, `GenerationPricing`, and ids. Preserve start/complete/failure terminal pairing, cached response metadata, zero-price routes, input correlation, and no usage charge on failed calls. If any field requires provider catalog or host billing types, leave that field/projection on OpenHuman and move the generic lifecycle only. Add unit tests in harness `observability` sibling test file; host integration verifies the adapter still emits the same durable records.
+4. Keep all persistence through `AppendStore` and the existing journal ports. No database/storage dependencies may be added to `tinyagents-harness`.
+
+### 5. Move capture middleware and repeated-failure ladder core
+
+Files: `turn_outcome.rs`, `turn_outcome_tests.rs`, `no_progress/classified_ladder.rs`, `classified_ladder_tests.rs`, `no_progress/mod.rs` exports. Host files: middleware capture and repeated failure.
+
+1. Capture tests pin exact tool call id/name/arguments/success/content/duration behavior, one append per execution, failure results, and poison-safe draining. The current harness `ToolCallOutcome`/sink is the canonical record; move generic middleware around that record into `turn_outcome`, preserving ordering and error semantics.
+2. Add a generic driver callback/port to the existing `classified_step_with_cause` ladder rather than copying the classifier. The harness owns per-class attempt accounting, blocker clearing, nudge/halt decision and `ClassifiedStopCause`. OpenHuman continues to choose the failure class and scope, apply its extra recoverable-failure headroom, enforce terminal-inference fast halt, sanitize content, select product recovery copy, and perform host steering/security effects.
+3. Port host tests for repeated same failure, distinct scopes, successful recovery clearing, uncertain side effects, typed cause and no-progress stop into harness tests where generic. Keep host policy tests that distinguish OpenHuman headroom/fast-halt behavior with the adapter.
+4. Do not relocate `HostFailurePolicy`, inference `failure_copy`, `OpenHumanRunContext`, fetched-site metadata, or `StopLatch` into TinyAgents.
+
+### 6. Replace the host model-budget wrapper
+
+Files: existing `crates/tinyagents-harness/src/cost/model_budget.rs` and `model_budget_tests.rs`; host `agent/tinyagents/budget.rs` and budget-focused tests.
+
+1. Verify existing `ModelBudget::new`, `wait_for_capacity`, and `wrap_model` contract and tests. Extend only for behavior used by OpenHuman; don't create a second wrapper. Port tests that verify shared ledger clones, child accounting, cache/retry placement expectations, normalization and reservation release.
+2. Update OpenHuman to use `tinyagents_harness::cost::ModelBudget` directly or retain a type alias only if host call sites need the distinct host name. Keep depth constants and policy installation in `budget.rs`.
+3. Ensure issue #60's runtime/job changes do not create a harness dependency on orchestration. No speculative session/runtime API is part of this step.
+
+### 7. Adapt OpenHuman and remove the migrated duplicate rows
+
+Files limited to the listed OpenHuman source/tests and their module exports. This is a later implementation phase after the upstream PR is available; do not make these edits in the current plan phase.
+
+1. Change host close/checkpoint calls to the new `*_with_copy` APIs and inject a `CloseCopy` built from the exact existing constants and render behavior. Keep `SummarizerSourceModel`, `RepairUsage`, trace callback, provider limits, custom stop classifier, required-output host contract, and progress projection.
+2. Change stop rendering to inject OpenHuman `StopCopy`; retain `StopReasonKind`, classifier mapping and security-sensitive scrubber in OpenHuman. Confirm every existing complete output string remains byte-identical.
+3. Change journal, supplemental trace, tool outcome capture, repeated-failure ladder and budget imports to the upstream generic types. Remove host generic implementation files only after all call sites and tests compile against the new APIs.
+4. Remove duplicate `CloseViolation`, `truncate_chars`, `render_tool_results`, `harness_instruction_needles`, `DeferredTurnTerminal`, `TurnJournal`, and model-budget wrapper only when no call sites remain. Preserve host integration tests for storage, request correlation, provider accounting, headroom and fast halt.
+5. Host test names/path ownership must follow the OpenHuman sibling-test rule; keep behavior tests next to host adapters and remove only assertions now ported to harness. Do not delete a test merely because its old implementation file is deleted.
+
+## Deferred dependencies and integration order
+
+- TinyAgents #60 carries session reuse/runtime work. This plan consumes its merged public API only if the source changes require it; #64 must not copy or design speculative APIs from #60. At planning time its integration phase is pinned to `120410141b9e59896072a657985073b11cb53768`; runtime phase is waiting on OpenHuman #60 integration.
+- TinyAgents #63's approved session-only phase is `bc4910…` (resolve the full SHA from the fork ledger before implementing); source work is waiting on #60. No #63 phase API is assumed here.
+- OpenHuman #212 adopts this capability after the upstream #64 change. OpenHuman source migration and gitlink update happen only after the TinyAgents PR is merged into `senamakel/tinyagents:epic/8088-tinyagents-slim` and reviewed against the latest epic tip.
+- Preserve all unrelated #8088 tracker requirements. The issue #64 scope is the rows and behaviors in its body; it does not narrow the epic's other leaves.
+
+## Acceptance and verification
+
+Behavioral acceptance before adapting/removing host code:
+
+1. Byte-identical golden comparisons for host-injected `CloseCopy` across deterministic checkpoint, deterministic final summary, grounded-close fallback, required-output repair, breaker halt, output-token exhaustion, iteration cap, and no completed tool calls.
+2. Byte-identical host-injected `StopCopy` output for classified halt, repeated failures, successful repeats, scrubbed/truncated errors, grouped counts, hidden older groups, and each `StopReasonKind`.
+3. All prior close, stop, journal, trace, tool-outcome, repeated-failure and budget assertions remain represented at the owning layer. Preserve public compatibility tests for old default-English APIs.
+4. Source audit confirms the generic implementations are gone from the listed host directories, host policy and persistence seams remain, and no TinyAgents dependency references OpenHuman types.
+
+Run required repository gates from the TinyAgents repository root through the super-worktree's long-command cancellation wrapper (no temp build directory and no `CARGO_TARGET_DIR`):
+
+```sh
+scripts/ci-cancel-aware.sh cargo fmt --all -- --check
+scripts/ci-cancel-aware.sh cargo check --workspace --all-targets
+scripts/ci-cancel-aware.sh cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
+scripts/ci-cancel-aware.sh cargo test --workspace
+```
+
+Also run focused tests for changed harness modules during implementation. The OpenHuman adapter phase separately runs its required focused tests and layout checks. This plan phase runs no builds or tests and makes no gate claim.
+
+## Review decisions to settle before source implementation
+
+1. Confirm the concrete field list for `CloseCopy` against every host literal in `turn_checkpoint.rs`; add any missing literal as a field so no English prose remains embedded in generic rendering.
+2. Decide whether generic `TurnJournal` warrants a distinct public facade: if `StoreEventJournal` already exactly covers the usage after auditing `journal.rs`, omit the wrapper and delete only `TurnJournal` while retaining the host's wiring. Do not introduce a wrapper that adds no behavior.
+3. Audit `SupplementalTrace` fields before moving it. Provider-rate lookup and billing remain host-owned; move only lifecycle/serialization fields that have no host type dependency.
+4. Resolve the full issue #63 phase SHA from the current fork ledger before implementation; the abbreviated pin above is intentionally not an API assumption.

Subject: [PATCH 0352/1076] docs(plans): update observability host seams plan

This updates the plan document detailing the migration of observability and closing logic from OpenHuman source to the tinyagents harness. It clarifies the scope of changes, confirming which host behaviors are retained and detailing the resolution of previous design decisions regarding journal and trace handling.

-Current harness modules are already public at `tinyagents-harness/src/lib.rs` (`close`, `cost`, `no_progress`, `observability`, `turn_outcome`, `turn_stop`). The cost wrapper is already implemented at `src/cost/model_budget.rs`. `StoreEventJournal` is already implemented in `src/observability/mod.rs` on the generic `AppendStore` port. Avoid introducing a dependency cycle: harness may depend on `tinyagents-harness`'s own lower-level event/store interfaces, but must not depend on OpenHuman, RPC, TinyHumans, or host storage crates. The host's `DispatchCtx` and storage-backed `AppendStore` implementation stay on the host side.
+Harness already exposes `close`, `cost`, `no_progress`, `observability`, `turn_outcome`, and `turn_stop`. `close.rs` owns tool-result rendering, deterministic summaries, quote detection, repair, and grounded-close state machine. `turn_stop.rs` owns classification and typed stops. `turn_outcome.rs` owns tool outcomes/sinks. Observability owns `StoreEventJournal` over `AppendStore`. Cost owns `ModelBudget::new`, `wait_for_capacity`, and `wrap_model`. `middleware::library::ToolOutcomeCaptureMiddleware` is already available. Add only the copy and source/cost ports needed for issue #64; introduce no OpenHuman/RPC/TinyHumans/storage dependency.

-## Review decisions to settle before source implementation
+## Resolved source audits
 
-1. Confirm the concrete field list for `CloseCopy` against every host literal in `turn_checkpoint.rs`; add any missing literal as a field so no English prose remains embedded in generic rendering.
-2. Decide whether generic `TurnJournal` warrants a distinct public facade: if `StoreEventJournal` already exactly covers the usage after auditing `journal.rs`, omit the wrapper and delete only `TurnJournal` while retaining the host's wiring. Do not introduce a wrapper that adds no behavior.
-3. Audit `SupplementalTrace` fields before moving it. Provider-rate lookup and billing remain host-owned; move only lifecycle/serialization fields that have no host type dependency.
-4. Resolve the full issue #63 phase SHA from the current fork ledger before implementation; the abbreviated pin above is intentionally not an API assumption.
+1. CloseCopy inventory is complete: exact host text/rendering is in `turn_checkpoint.rs:49-126,152-169,198-258,260-372,388-514`. Existing generic algorithms are in harness `close.rs`; the new seam injects copy while reusing those algorithms. No string inventory is deferred.
+2. Do not add `TurnJournal` to harness. `journal.rs:123-225` couples terminal status writes to host `DriverStatusStore`; the generic event side already uses `StoreEventJournal`, `JournalSink`, and `HarnessEventJournal`. Keep attachment, status lifecycle, correlation, and replay host-side. Move only event terminal emission from `DeferredTurnTerminal` and leave durable status finalization with its host owner.
+3. `SupplementalTrace` (13-169) uses harness `EventSink`, `AgentEvent`, ids, `ModelResponse`, `GenerationPricing`, and `GenerationEnrichment` for call lifecycle. It uses host `agent::cost` and provider conversion for catalog pricing, charge estimates, and `RepairUsage` fields. Move event lifecycle to harness behind a host enrichment callback; retain catalog/billing and final cost projection on the host callback.
+4. Upstream `ModelBudget::new`, `wait_for_capacity`, and `wrap_model` are verified in `tinyagents-harness/src/cost/model_budget.rs:22-42`; retain host depth/policy setup and replace only the wrapper type.

Subject: [PATCH 0353/1076] test(tasks): cover permanent cancellation when a
 lease takeover is lost

Adds a durable lease test that simulates another process taking over a
thread through the released document CAS contract. It verifies the renewer
observes the new holder and epoch, cancels the active turn, and that the
lost tenure can neither regain admission nor reacquire the thread while a
successor owns it.

-The comment bodies above are signatures, not permission to leave `todo!()` or unimplemented methods. Implement each method in the same change. `StopSummaryGroup` is a new generic data record `{ name: String, success: bool, error: Option<String>, count: usize }`; it contains already-scrubbed display data, not raw tool arguments. The harness performs chronological grouping, last-eight selection, character truncation, and count formatting as it does today. `StopCopy` supplies only localized labels/sentences, with placeholder insertion performed by harness formatting. `CloseCopy` supplies the actual host instruction and headings, including the exact existing OpenHuman text. It must also include every literal that contributes to deterministic checkpoint/final summary output; do not merely translate the main headings and leave hard-coded English in the algorithm.
+`StopSummaryGroup.error` contains only the already-scrubbed `short_error_line` output. Move the host grouping and scrub logic into harness and pass the resulting groups to the renderer above. Host `StopCopy` provides the reason sentence through `StopReasonKind.copy()`; it does not move the product's failure-note parser or security scrubber. Keep the existing total-budget result rendering APIs and let OpenHuman supply its existing `CloseResultRenderOptions` block/omission closures.
 
-Keep existing public `*_with_options` APIs source-compatible. Add `*_with_copy` variants that accept `&CloseCopy` or `&StopCopy`; old entry points delegate to `CloseCopy::english()` / `StopCopy::english()`. The exact function names should match the module's established naming (`build_deterministic_checkpoint_with_copy`, `build_deterministic_final_summary_with_copy`, `grounded_close_with_copy`, `render_stop_summary_with_copy`). The host call path must select the `with_copy` functions explicitly. `CloseViolation` remains one canonical harness enum with variants `NoReply`, `QuotedInstruction`, and `Unverified`; remove OpenHuman's duplicate and map no strings or public core types into the harness.
+Keep existing APIs source-compatible. Existing `deterministic_checkpoint` and `deterministic_final_summary` remain; add the exact functions above. Existing `CloseViolation` has `NoReply`, `QuotedInstruction`, and `Unverified`; map OpenHuman's `QuotedHarnessText` variant to `QuotedInstruction` at its host boundary.

Move `classified_halt_close` into harness as a generic selector over `(stop_reason: Option<&str>, is_classified_halt: impl Fn(&str)->bool, results, fallback: impl FnOnce()->String) -> Option<CloseOutput>`. On a match it calls the supplied deterministic fallback and returns zero additional model calls/usage; it must not contain OpenHuman's `"Stopping after "` marker. Port the test `classified_halt_returns_partial_work_without_provider_usage` to harness using an injected predicate and assert the fallback output, no raw success text, retained scrubbed failure line, and zero provider calls.

Subject: [PATCH 0356/1076] test(tasks): relax durable lease renewal timing in
 takeover test

The renewal interval and cancellation timeout were widened so the
takeover is reliably written before renewal runs, and an assertion now
confirms that ordering instead of relying on timing alone.

Assert output bytes, request sequence, model/temperature/output cap, tool-less calls, callback kind/response presence, token gauges, and event correlation.
 3. Move `SummarizerSourceModel` to harness as `CloseSourceModel<'a> { source: &'a dyn CloseModelSource, model: &'a str, temperature: f64, thread_id: Option<&'a str>, trace: Option<&'a SupplementalCallTrace> }`, implementing `ChatModel<()>` by obtaining the per-call model from `CloseModelSource::build_summarizer(model, temperature, thread_id)`, mapping its error to `tinyinference_llm::Error::Model(error)`, and forwarding `invoke`/`stream` requests and items unchanged.

+1. Add tests for custom stop copy using exact host golden output and retain every existing `turn_stop_tests.rs` assertion: typed content-free causes, legacy fallback, serde sanitization, stop precedence, incomplete-reason mapping, and status text.
+2. Move `DeferredTurnTerminal`'s event-owned fields (`RunId`, `EventSink`) and methods to `turn_outcome.rs`; remove its host `TurnJournal` field. Preserve event order and exact error/outcome literals: success emits optional `TurnStopped` then `RunFinalized`; cancellation/failure emits `RunFailed` then `RunFinalized`.

 3. Host-specific `StopReasonKind::from_stop_note` / stable product keys remain in OpenHuman. `TurnStop` construction can call the existing generic `classify`, `classify_with_cause`, and `from_incomplete_reason`; product fallback closure stays supplied by OpenHuman. Remove only forwarding wrappers once all uses call canonical API.

 Files: `observability/mod.rs`, `observability/mod_journal_tests.rs` and a new sibling `observability/turn_journal_tests.rs` only if the current test module cannot host focused coverage; update `observability/mod.rs` declarations. Host files: `agent/tinyagents/journal.rs`, `supplemental_trace.rs`.
 
-1. Add a harness-level `TurnJournal` facade over the existing `StoreEventJournal<A: AppendStore>`; it owns only generic run/thread lineage, append/read/flush composition. Its constructor takes the `Arc<dyn HarnessEventJournal>` and the `RunId`/`ThreadId` inputs that the current `TurnJournal` needs. Do not copy the backend `AppendStore` implementation or `DispatchCtx` correlation map.
-2. Add tests using the existing in-memory append store/journal: event ordering and offsets, lineage, flush visibility, readback, and merge ordering. Port every assertion in OpenHuman `journal_tests.rs` that describes these generic semantics; keep request correlation and session stream integration tests on the host.
+1. Do not add/move `TurnJournal` into harness. The inspected type at host lines 123-225 includes `DriverStatusStore`, `HarnessRunStatus`, sealing, and host logging. The generic event path already uses `StoreEventJournal`, `JournalSink`, and `HarnessEventJournal`.
+2. Keep attachment, status lifecycle and `merge_run_observations` on the host. `journal_tests.rs` only tests that the request/run map stays scoped to the registering `DispatchCtx`; keep it there. Existing harness observability tests cover generic append/read/offset/lineage behavior; add no duplicate tests.
 3. Move `SupplementalTrace` only if its remaining contract can be expressed using harness-owned `AgentEvent`, `GenerationEnrichment`, `GenerationPricing`, and ids. Preserve start/complete/failure terminal pairing, cached response metadata, zero-price routes, input correlation, and no usage charge on failed calls. If any field requires provider catalog or host billing types, leave that field/projection on OpenHuman and move the generic lifecycle only. Add unit tests in harness `observability` sibling test file; host integration verifies the adapter still emits the same durable records.
 4. Keep all persistence through `AppendStore` and the existing journal ports. No database/storage dependencies may be added to `tinyagents-harness`.

-1. Capture tests pin exact tool call id/name/arguments/success/content/duration behavior, one append per execution, failure results, and poison-safe draining. The current harness `ToolCallOutcome`/sink is the canonical record; move generic middleware around that record into `turn_outcome`, preserving ordering and error semantics.
-2. Add a generic driver callback/port to the existing `classified_step_with_cause` ladder rather than copying the classifier. The harness owns per-class attempt accounting, blocker clearing, nudge/halt decision and `ClassifiedStopCause`. OpenHuman continues to choose the failure class and scope, apply its extra recoverable-failure headroom, enforce terminal-inference fast halt, sanitize content, select product recovery copy, and perform host steering/security effects.
-3. Port host tests for repeated same failure, distinct scopes, successful recovery clearing, uncertain side effects, typed cause and no-progress stop into harness tests where generic. Keep host policy tests that distinguish OpenHuman headroom/fast-halt behavior with the adapter.
+1. The host capture wrapper delegates to `tinyagents_harness::middleware::library::ToolOutcomeCaptureMiddleware` already. In #212 delete only this adapter after direct construction is wired. Keep host policy enrichment, TinyTools failure classification, `mcp_result` metadata filtering and `ToolFailureMap`. Preserve the host tests for same-name calls by call id, forwarding structured MCP presentation, and dropping undecorated MCP envelopes. Harness `turn_outcome_tests.rs` already tests poison-safe drain and one-time take.
+2. The inspected 541-line `RepeatedToolFailureMiddleware` already delegates to harness `FailureScopeMiddleware`, `FailurePolicy`, `ClassifiedFailureTracker`, and `classified_step`; its remaining `HostFailurePolicy` owns host `RunContext`, call-resource scope, sanitization, flow-body failure detection, TinyTools classifier, recoverable headroom, terminal-inference fast halt, StopLatch and OpenHuman copy. Make no source move for this file in #64; preserving host tests is the acceptance evidence.
+3. Existing harness `classified_ladder_tests.rs`, `recoverable_tests.rs`, and failure-scope tests own generic ladder behavior. Do not mirror them in OpenHuman or duplicate them in harness.
 4. Do not relocate `HostFailurePolicy`, inference `failure_copy`, `OpenHumanRunContext`, fetched-site metadata, or `StopLatch` into TinyAgents.

Preserve the source behavior: every attempted call increments `model_calls`; only completed usage adds token counts; verification calls do not replace final context token counts; a completed repair call supersedes the loop's token pair. The existing `grounded_close_tests.rs` tests already assert callbacks on complete/fail/timeout paths.
-5. Move `classified_halt_close` into harness as a generic selector over `(stop_reason: Option<&str>, is_classified_halt: impl Fn(&str)->bool, results, fallback: impl FnOnce()->String) -> Option<CloseOutput>`. On a match it calls the supplied deterministic fallback and returns zero additional model calls/usage; it must not contain OpenHuman's `"Stopping after "` marker. Port the test `classified_halt_returns_partial_work_without_provider_usage` to harness using an injected predicate and assert the fallback output, no raw success text, retained scrubbed failure line, and zero provider calls.
-6. Move `repair_required_output` orchestration to harness using the already-existing `RequiredOutputRepairConfig`, `RequiredOutputRepairOptions`, `RequiredOutputFallbackPlacement`, `ChatModel`, and `ToolDialect`. Retain its `reply_already_streamed` continuation behavior. Required-output contract construction and choice of `Prepend` stay with the host caller.
+3. Move `SummarizerSourceModel` to harness as `CloseSourceModel<'a> { source: &'a dyn CloseModelSource, model: &'a str, temperature: f64, thread_id: Option<&'a str> }`, implementing `ChatModel<()>` by obtaining the per-call model and forwarding request/invoke/stream unchanged. Define `pub trait CloseModelSource: Send + Sync { fn build_summarizer(&self, model: &str, temperature: f64, thread_id: Option<&str>) -> Result<Arc<dyn ChatModel<()>>, String>; }`. Map the `String` error to `tinyinference_llm::Error::Model`; OpenHuman implements the source port by delegating to `TurnModelSource`. Keep the supplemental trace wrapper separate in the following step.
+4. Move `RepairUsage`'s generic fields and accumulation into harness `CloseUsage`: `model_calls`, `input_tokens`, `output_tokens`, `cached_input_tokens`, `last_call_input_tokens`, `last_call_output_tokens`, plus `cost: CostTally` and `pricing_model: String` (both types already belong to harness/inference contracts). Implement `for_model(model)`, `record(kind, Option<&Usage>, measures_context)`, and `record_close_call(kind, Option<&ModelResponse>)`. Preserve exact rules from source lines 45-98: count each attempted request; add usage totals only when present; record final context tokens only for non-verification requests; a successful close/repair with context tokens supersedes the loop's final call. Keep the callback seam so OpenHuman's `BilledUsage` conversion and catalog pricing call `CostTally::add(CallCost)` without importing OpenHuman types upstream. Existing `grounded_close_tests.rs` covers callback complete/fail/timeout paths.
+5. Move `classified_halt_close` into harness as a generic selector with exact contract `pub fn classified_halt_close<T>(stop_reason: Option<&str>, is_classified_halt: impl FnOnce(&str) -> bool, build_close: impl FnOnce() -> T) -> Option<T>`. Its complete implementation is: `let reason = stop_reason?; is_classified_halt(reason).then(build_close)`. Host predicate is `|reason| reason.starts_with("Stopping after ")`; its fallback closure renders the host `StopCopy` summary from tool outcomes. This keeps the product marker and classification host-side while moving the generic short-circuit. Port `classified_halt_returns_partial_work_without_provider_usage`; assert no model request/usage, partial successes listed, success payload omitted, and failed line retained.
+6. `repair_required_output` already exists in harness at `close.rs:559-698`; consolidate the host call to it rather than porting a duplicate. Preserve host construction of `RequiredOutput`, selected repair instruction, `Prepend` placement and post-repair progress delta. Port its exact behavior assertions from `required_output_repair_preserves_all_host_output_placements` and retain model-repaired vs deterministic fallback results.

 1. Do not add/move `TurnJournal` into harness. The inspected type at host lines 123-225 includes `DriverStatusStore`, `HarnessRunStatus`, sealing, and host logging. The generic event path already uses `StoreEventJournal`, `JournalSink`, and `HarnessEventJournal`.
 2. Keep attachment, status lifecycle and `merge_run_observations` on the host. `journal_tests.rs` only tests that the request/run map stays scoped to the registering `DispatchCtx`; keep it there. Existing harness observability tests cover generic append/read/offset/lineage behavior; add no duplicate tests.
-3. Move `SupplementalTrace` only if its remaining contract can be expressed using harness-owned `AgentEvent`, `GenerationEnrichment`, `GenerationPricing`, and ids. Preserve start/complete/failure terminal pairing, cached response metadata, zero-price routes, input correlation, and no usage charge on failed calls. If any field requires provider catalog or host billing types, leave that field/projection on OpenHuman and move the generic lifecycle only. Add unit tests in harness `observability` sibling test file; host integration verifies the adapter still emits the same durable records.
+3. Move `SupplementalTrace` call lifecycle into `harness::observability::SupplementalCallTrace`. Exact public port: `pub trait SupplementalEnricher: Send + Sync { fn enrich(&self, model: &str, response: &ModelResponse) -> (Option<String>, GenerationEnrichment); }`. The harness trace owns `EventSink`, `RunId`, `AtomicUsize`, `Mutex<Option<String>>` actual model, and `AtomicBool` cache flag; methods retain current signatures `new(events, run_id, enricher)`, `begin(model)->(CallId,u64)`, `failed(call_id,model,started_at_ms)`, `completed(call_id,model,started_at_ms,input,response)`, `actual_model()`, `is_cache_hit()`, and `run_id()`. The host enricher reproduces lines 101-148: actual-route model fallback, provider id validation, provider pricing, `usage_info_from_response`, and estimate suppression for cached/reported charges. Preserve event order: started; on failure only generic ModelFailed; on success cached marker (and clear charged amount), UsageRecorded, ModelCompleted with input/output, then GenerationEnriched when nonempty. Move `SupplementalCall` RAII and stream item completion/failure handling from `grounded_close.rs:124-225` too. Test cached response, zero-price route, failure and stream-drop paths; no external calls.
 4. Keep all persistence through `AppendStore` and the existing journal ports. No database/storage dependencies may be added to `tinyagents-harness`.

 subagent requests

Subagent requests can now carry an optional host-owned delivery fence that the driver retains across executor awaits. When the fence is lost, dispatch and persistence stop, letting the host bind transcript writing to the same authority.

Subject: [PATCH 0362/1076] fix(subagent): cancel subagent execution when turn
 lease is lost

The driver now checks the turn fence before planning, before execution, and
during each retry attempt, and races the executor against the fence's lost
signal so a subagent stops promptly once its parent turn is no longer
admitted. Previously a subagent could keep running and retrying after the
turn lease was revoked.

Subject: [PATCH 0363/1076] fix(subagent): cancel the correct token on timeout

The timeout branch cancelled the outer token binding, which could be
reassigned while the execution was in flight. A dedicated clone of the
token is now captured before the run future, so a timeout cancels the
token that belongs to the execution that actually timed out.

Subject: [PATCH 0364/1076] test(subagent): cover turn fence loss during
 dispatch

Add a driver completion test that revokes the turn fence while the
executor is still running. It asserts the in-flight turn token is
cancelled and that no terminal outcome is persisted once the fence is
lost.

Keep the OpenHuman golden test strings unchanged.
+2. Do not add `TurnJournal` to harness. `journal.rs:123-225` couples terminal status writes to host `DriverStatusStore`; the generic event side already uses `StoreEventJournal`, `JournalSink`, and `HarnessEventJournal`. The listed generic row is already represented upstream. Keep attachment, status lifecycle, correlation, and replay host-side. Move only event terminal emission from `DeferredTurnTerminal` and leave durable status finalization with its host owner.
+3. `SupplementalTrace` (13-169) uses harness `EventSink`, `AgentEvent`, ids, `ModelResponse`, `GenerationPricing`, and `GenerationEnrichment` for call lifecycle. It uses host `agent::cost` and provider conversion for catalog pricing, charge estimates, and `RepairUsage` fields. Move event lifecycle to harness behind the typed host enrichment callback; retain catalog/billing and final cost projection on the host callback.
 4. Upstream `ModelBudget::new`, `wait_for_capacity`, and `wrap_model` are verified in `tinyagents-harness/src/cost/model_budget.rs:22-42`; retain host depth/policy setup and replace only the wrapper type.

Subject: [PATCH 0366/1076] fix(subagent): initialize cancellation token from
 execution

The token variable was declared without a value and only assigned later, so the driver now seeds it from the execution's cancellation handle to ensure cancellation is observed from the start of the loop.

Subject: [PATCH 0374/1076] fix(subagent): stop double-counting summary model
 calls

The cap summary's model call count was added to the run accounting even though the summary's usage calls were already folded in, so child turns reported one extra model call. The redundant field and its accumulation are removed and the test expectation updated to match.

Subject: [PATCH 0376/1076] docs(plans): update observability host seams plan

Updates the documentation plan regarding closing observability host seams by refining the implementation details for prompt interpolation and summary rendering. This change introduces a dedicated `interpolate_once` helper function to ensure consistent, single-pass template substitution across various prompt generation routines.

    Add a whole-string assertion for the production three-timeout case with the transient English copy: `I stopped this turn early because a service I needed kept timing out or was temporarily unavailable.\n\n**What happened**\n- \`get_profile\` succeeded\n- \`use_skill\` failed 3 times: tool \`use_skill\` timed out after 30000 ms\n\nTell me how you'd like to proceed, or ask me to try again.` The existing component assertions remain too.
 3. First add/run the output behavior tests against existing functions. The OpenHuman block-format golden is a real behavioral gap against the harness's current default renderer; it fails because the harness defaults to inline `- \`name\` (ok):` instead of OpenHuman's quoted multiline block. Do not count adding a new API's compile failure as a behavioral RED. After the algorithmic output test is red, add the sentinel copy test with every field, then implement the new copy API and confirm both pass.
 4. Make the red test fail on a real behavior mismatch, then implement. No host migration occurs in #64. Confirm existing APIs and tests still pass unchanged.
+5. Add a full-string verifier golden for empty records and repeat it with whitespace-only records. Both calls must equal this exact output (including the no-tools fallback):

+   let expected = "You are checking a reply before it is shown to a user. Below are the user's request, the records of the tool calls made while handling it, and the reply.\n\nAnswer REJECT if any of these is true:\n1. The reply only says what the assistant will do or is about to do, instead of reporting what happened.\n2. The reply states something the tool records contradict, for example that something does not exist or did not work when a record shows it succeeded, or that something succeeded when its record shows it failed.\n3. The request was not completed, a failed record gives the reason, and the reply does not pass that reason on.\n4. The reply narrates the assistant's own deliberation — thinking aloud, correcting itself part way through, or weighing what to do — rather than stating the outcome. Reporting what a tool call returned is not deliberation.\n5. The reply recites or enumerates the tools the assistant has, instead of reporting what this turn's tool calls produced. Naming a tool the reply actually used, or answering a request that asked what the assistant can do, is not a violation.\n\nOtherwise answer ACCEPT. Reply with the single word ACCEPT or REJECT.\n\n<user_request>\nstatus?\n</user_request>\n\n<tool_records>\n(no tool calls completed)\n</tool_records>\n\n<reply>\nNothing ran.\n</reply>";

+6. Add `verification_prompt_does_not_rescan_placeholder_shaped_user_content`: pass request `Explain {records}`, records `record contains {reply} and {user_request}`, and reply `reply contains {records}`; assert the full result retains each of those braces and token strings literally in its corresponding XML section. Add `stop_summary_preserves_placeholder_shaped_tool_names_and_errors`: use one failed group with name `tool_{count}_{error}` and scrubbed error `failed {name}`; assert the exact line is `- `tool_{count}_{error}` failed: failed {name}`.

 1. Inventory existing `close.rs` entry points before editing: `CloseToolResult`, `results_from_tool_outcomes`, truncation/rendering, deterministic builders, `CloseViolation`, repair config/options and usage callbacks, required-output repair, grounded close and fallback. Extend those APIs rather than creating parallel algorithms.
 2. Add focused tests for both checkpoint and final close with custom copy and byte equality against OpenHuman goldens. Preserve the cases in host `grounded_close_tests.rs`: classified halt with no provider usage; selected model and verifier excluded from final-context gauge; failed close request counted without usage; correlated native start/completion events; EOF and timeout traces without timeout usage; all required-output placement variants; truncated and capped turns; timeout repair retains completed-call usage; cache event clears provider charge; free-route catalog rates are zero. Assert output bytes, request sequence, model/temperature/output cap, tool-less calls, callback kind/response presence, token gauges, and event correlation.
-3. Move `SummarizerSourceModel` to harness as `CloseSourceModel<'a> { source: &'a dyn CloseModelSource, model: &'a str, temperature: f64, thread_id: Option<&'a str> }`, implementing `ChatModel<()>` by obtaining the per-call model and forwarding request/invoke/stream unchanged. Define `pub trait CloseModelSource: Send + Sync { fn build_summarizer(&self, model: &str, temperature: f64, thread_id: Option<&str>) -> Result<Arc<dyn ChatModel<()>>, String>; }`. Map the `String` error to `tinyinference_llm::Error::Model`; OpenHuman implements the source port by delegating to `TurnModelSource`. Keep the supplemental trace wrapper separate in the following step.
+3. Move `SummarizerSourceModel` to harness as `CloseSourceModel<'a> { source: &'a dyn CloseModelSource, model: &'a str, temperature: f64, thread_id: Option<&'a str>, trace: Option<&'a SupplementalCallTrace> }`. Define `pub trait CloseModelSource: Send + Sync { fn build_summarizer(&self, model: &str, temperature: f64, thread_id: Option<&str>) -> Result<Arc<dyn ChatModel<()>>, String>; }`. Its `ChatModel<()>` implementation obtains the per-call model and forwards request, invoke, and stream. In `invoke`, call `trace.begin(model, request)` before provider invocation; on success call `guard.complete(response)`, while `?` propagation on failure drops the guard and emits one failure. In `stream`, begin before opening the provider stream, then retain the guard in the mapped stream: terminal `Completed` calls `complete` once, `Failed`/`ProviderFailed` drops it once, and EOF or consumer drop before a terminal item drops it as an incomplete failure. This keeps the source model and trace composition connected at construction, with both borrowed lifetimes explicit. Map the source's `String` build error to `tinyinference_llm::Error::Model`; OpenHuman implements the source port by delegating to `TurnModelSource`.
 4. Move `RepairUsage`'s generic fields and accumulation into harness `CloseUsage`: `model_calls`, `input_tokens`, `output_tokens`, `cached_input_tokens`, `last_call_input_tokens`, `last_call_output_tokens`, plus `cost: CostTally` and `pricing_model: String` (both types already belong to harness/inference contracts). Implement `for_model(model)`, `record(kind, Option<&Usage>, measures_context)`, and `record_close_call(kind, Option<&ModelResponse>)`. Preserve exact rules from source lines 45-98: count each attempted request; add usage totals only when present; record final context tokens only for non-verification requests; a successful close/repair with context tokens supersedes the loop's final call. Keep the callback seam so OpenHuman's `BilledUsage` conversion and catalog pricing call `CostTally::add(CallCost)` without importing OpenHuman types upstream. Existing `grounded_close_tests.rs` covers callback complete/fail/timeout paths.
 5. Move `classified_halt_close` into harness as a generic selector with exact contract `pub fn classified_halt_close<T>(stop_reason: Option<&str>, is_classified_halt: impl FnOnce(&str) -> bool, build_close: impl FnOnce() -> T) -> Option<T>`. Its complete implementation is: `let reason = stop_reason?; is_classified_halt(reason).then(build_close)`. Host predicate is `|reason| reason.starts_with("Stopping after ")`; its fallback closure renders the host `StopCopy` summary from tool outcomes. This keeps the product marker and classification host-side while moving the generic short-circuit. Port `classified_halt_returns_partial_work_without_provider_usage`; assert no model request/usage, partial successes listed, success payload omitted, and failed line retained.
 6. `repair_required_output` already exists in harness at `close.rs:559-698`; consolidate the host call to it rather than porting a duplicate. Preserve host construction of `RequiredOutput`, selected repair instruction, `Prepend` placement and post-repair progress delta. Port its exact behavior assertions from `required_output_repair_preserves_all_host_output_placements` and retain model-repaired vs deterministic fallback results.

Preserve event order: started; on failure only generic ModelFailed; on success cached marker (and clear charged amount), UsageRecorded, ModelCompleted with input/output, then GenerationEnriched when nonempty. Move `SupplementalCall` RAII and stream item completion/failure handling from `grounded_close.rs:124-225` too. Test cached response, zero-price route, failure and stream-drop paths; no external calls.
+3. Move `SupplementalTrace` call lifecycle into `harness::observability::SupplementalCallTrace`, with concrete request correlation and RAII guard API. Define `pub trait SupplementalEnricher: Send + Sync { fn enrich(&self, model: &str, response: &ModelResponse) -> (Option<String>, GenerationEnrichment); }`; the trace owns `EventSink`, `RunId`, `AtomicUsize`, `Mutex<Option<String>>` actual model, `AtomicBool` cache flag, and `Arc<dyn SupplementalEnricher>`. Its constructors/accessors are `new(events: EventSink, run_id: RunId, enricher: Arc<dyn SupplementalEnricher>) -> Self`, `run_id(&self) -> RunId`, `actual_model(&self) -> Option<String>`, and `is_cache_hit(&self) -> bool`. `begin(&self, model: &str, request: &mut ModelRequest) -> SupplementalCallGuard` allocates the next `CallId`, captures `now_ms()`, serializes request messages into the call's input value, sets `request.correlation = Some(ModelCallCorrelation::new(self.run_id, call_id))`, emits `ModelStarted`, and returns a guard owning the call id, model, start time, input, trace reference, and `completed: false`. `SupplementalCallGuard::complete(&mut self, response: &ModelResponse)` records actual route/model and cache status; for cache hits clear `response.usage.charged_amount` before emitting `UsageRecorded`, then emit `ModelCompleted` with captured input/output and `GenerationEnriched` only when nonempty, and set `completed = true`. Its `Drop` emits exactly one generic `ModelFailed` if incomplete, including invoke error, stream error, EOF, or consumer drop. `CloseSourceModel` owns the optional trace borrow and uses this guard for invoke and stream as specified in Step 2.3, preserving correlation through the whole call. The host enricher reproduces `supplemental_trace.rs:101-148`: actual-route model fallback, provider id validation, provider pricing, `usage_info_from_response`, and estimate suppression for cached/reported charges. Move `SupplementalCall` RAII lifecycle from `grounded_close.rs:124-225`. Test success correlation and event order, invoke failure, stream error, EOF, and consumer drop; each failure path must emit one `ModelFailed`, and a completed stream must emit one completion only. Retain cached-response charge clearing and zero-price route tests; no external calls.
 4. Keep all persistence through `AppendStore` and the existing journal ports. No database/storage dependencies may be added to `tinyagents-harness`.

Subject: [PATCH 0377/1076] docs(plans): update observability host seams plan

This updates the documentation plan regarding closing observability host seams. It details several refactorings to move logic into the harness, including changes to how model sources and supplemental traces are managed to improve structure and lifetime management.

 1. Inventory existing `close.rs` entry points before editing: `CloseToolResult`, `results_from_tool_outcomes`, truncation/rendering, deterministic builders, `CloseViolation`, repair config/options and usage callbacks, required-output repair, grounded close and fallback. Extend those APIs rather than creating parallel algorithms.
 2. Add focused tests for both checkpoint and final close with custom copy and byte equality against OpenHuman goldens. Preserve the cases in host `grounded_close_tests.rs`: classified halt with no provider usage; selected model and verifier excluded from final-context gauge; failed close request counted without usage; correlated native start/completion events; EOF and timeout traces without timeout usage; all required-output placement variants; truncated and capped turns; timeout repair retains completed-call usage; cache event clears provider charge; free-route catalog rates are zero. Assert output bytes, request sequence, model/temperature/output cap, tool-less calls, callback kind/response presence, token gauges, and event correlation.
-3. Move `SummarizerSourceModel` to harness as `CloseSourceModel<'a> { source: &'a dyn CloseModelSource, model: &'a str, temperature: f64, thread_id: Option<&'a str>, trace: Option<&'a SupplementalCallTrace> }`. Define `pub trait CloseModelSource: Send + Sync { fn build_summarizer(&self, model: &str, temperature: f64, thread_id: Option<&str>) -> Result<Arc<dyn ChatModel<()>>, String>; }`. Its `ChatModel<()>` implementation obtains the per-call model and forwards request, invoke, and stream. In `invoke`, call `trace.begin(model, request)` before provider invocation; on success call `guard.complete(response)`, while `?` propagation on failure drops the guard and emits one failure. In `stream`, begin before opening the provider stream, then retain the guard in the mapped stream: terminal `Completed` calls `complete` once, `Failed`/`ProviderFailed` drops it once, and EOF or consumer drop before a terminal item drops it as an incomplete failure. This keeps the source model and trace composition connected at construction, with both borrowed lifetimes explicit. Map the source's `String` build error to `tinyinference_llm::Error::Model`; OpenHuman implements the source port by delegating to `TurnModelSource`.
+3. Move `SummarizerSourceModel` to harness as `CloseSourceModel<'a> { source: &'a dyn CloseModelSource, model: &'a str, temperature: f64, thread_id: Option<&'a str>, trace: Option<&'a Arc<SupplementalCallTrace>> }`. Define `pub trait CloseModelSource: Send + Sync { fn build_summarizer(&self, model: &str, temperature: f64, thread_id: Option<&str>) -> Result<Arc<dyn ChatModel<()>>, String>; }`. Its `ChatModel<()>` implementation obtains the per-call model and forwards request, invoke, and stream. In `invoke`, call `SupplementalCallGuard::start(trace, model, &mut request)` before provider invocation; on success call `complete(response)`, while error propagation drops the guard and emits one failure. In `stream`, start before opening the provider stream, then retain the guard in the mapped stream: terminal `Completed` calls `complete` once, `Failed`/`ProviderFailed` drops it once, and EOF or consumer drop before a terminal item drops it as an incomplete failure. This preserves the host's current `Arc` ownership so the guard keeps the trace alive if the stream outlives the wrapper. Map the source's `String` build error to `tinyinference_llm::Error::Model`; OpenHuman implements the source port by delegating to `TurnModelSource`.
 4. Move `RepairUsage`'s generic fields and accumulation into harness `CloseUsage`: `model_calls`, `input_tokens`, `output_tokens`, `cached_input_tokens`, `last_call_input_tokens`, `last_call_output_tokens`, plus `cost: CostTally` and `pricing_model: String` (both types already belong to harness/inference contracts). Implement `for_model(model)`, `record(kind, Option<&Usage>, measures_context)`, and `record_close_call(kind, Option<&ModelResponse>)`. Preserve exact rules from source lines 45-98: count each attempted request; add usage totals only when present; record final context tokens only for non-verification requests; a successful close/repair with context tokens supersedes the loop's final call. Keep the callback seam so OpenHuman's `BilledUsage` conversion and catalog pricing call `CostTally::add(CallCost)` without importing OpenHuman types upstream. Existing `grounded_close_tests.rs` covers callback complete/fail/timeout paths.
 5. Move `classified_halt_close` into harness as a generic selector with exact contract `pub fn classified_halt_close<T>(stop_reason: Option<&str>, is_classified_halt: impl FnOnce(&str) -> bool, build_close: impl FnOnce() -> T) -> Option<T>`. Its complete implementation is: `let reason = stop_reason?; is_classified_halt(reason).then(build_close)`. Host predicate is `|reason| reason.starts_with("Stopping after ")`; its fallback closure renders the host `StopCopy` summary from tool outcomes. This keeps the product marker and classification host-side while moving the generic short-circuit. Port `classified_halt_returns_partial_work_without_provider_usage`; assert no model request/usage, partial successes listed, success payload omitted, and failed line retained.
 6. `repair_required_output` already exists in harness at `close.rs:559-698`; consolidate the host call to it rather than porting a duplicate. Preserve host construction of `RequiredOutput`, selected repair instruction, `Prepend` placement and post-repair progress delta. Port its exact behavior assertions from `required_output_repair_preserves_all_host_output_placements` and retain model-repaired vs deterministic fallback results.

Subject: [PATCH 0378/1076] test(subagent): cover early exit appending typed
 question

Adds a test asserting that an early-exit child turn appends the typed
question to accepted history and persists the result without running the
cap summary path. This locks in the expected event ordering and output
for the early-exit case.

 control to child turns

Introduce ChildTurnControl to hold the cancellation token and delivery
fence for the duration of a child turn, and thread it through the host
run_turn and after_commit ports. Host work now races against cancellation
and fence loss so a turn that loses its lease is cancelled rather than
reacquiring authority.

Subject: [PATCH 0383/1076] refactor(subagent): introduce control flow into
 child turn driving

The child turn driving logic is updated to incorporate `ChildTurnControl` throughout the process. This allows for better integration of cancellation and lease management across various stages like running the turn, summarizing capacity, and persisting results. New test utilities are added to support testing these control flow mechanisms.

Subject: [PATCH 0384/1076] refactor(subagent): unify error handling in child
 turn control

This change refactors the error handling within child turn control by introducing a `ChildTurnStop` enum and converting existing `ChildTurnError` usages to use it where appropriate. It also adds a helper method `race_host` to wrap `race` calls, simplifying the conversion from `ChildTurnStop` to `ChildTurnError` in several places.

Subject: [PATCH 0385/1076] test(subagent): scope pinned child turn future to
 avoid borrow conflict

Wraps the pinned child turn future in a block so the borrow ends before the
assertion, letting the test await the outcome without holding the pin across
the comparison.

Subject: [PATCH 0386/1076] test(subagent): simplify child turn fence test with
 tokio::join

Replace the manual pin and sequential await in the losing-turn-fence test
with a tokio::join! over the child turn future and the revoke task. This
keeps the same ordering guarantee while removing the explicit pinning
boilerplate.

Subject: [PATCH 0387/1076] style(subagent): reorder imports and expand
 re-exports

Reordered use statements and reformatted a few expressions in the child
turn module and its tests to match rustfmt conventions. Also added
ChildTurnControl and ChildTurnError to the subagent module's public
re-exports so callers can name them directly.

Subject: [PATCH 0388/1076] test(subagent): cover fence loss during summary and
 commit

Adds fake-host hooks to pause the cap summary and transcript commit so
tests can revoke the turn fence mid-flight. The new cases assert that a
lost lease during either step cancels the turn and skips persistence and
deferred terminal work.

Reformatted two test call sites so the tokio::join! invocation and its
async block fit on one line. No behaviour change; the tests still revoke
the fence mid-turn and assert the same lease-lost outcome.

Adds a driver completion test that revokes the turn fence while the
result policy is awaiting artifact storage. It asserts the run reports
cancellation and that neither terminal persistence nor completion
dispatch is reopened after the executor has already completed.

Subject: [PATCH 0393/1076] feat(subagent): fence driver awaits against turn
 loss

Wrap persistence reads, planner preparation, outcome policy application,
completion delivery, and completion recording in a turn fence so the driver
aborts with a cancellation as soon as the turn is lost. This prevents a
subagent run from committing durable effects after its turn has already
been revoked.

 errors

The completion recording call now propagates its error instead of
discarding it, so failures to persist a completed subagent run are no
longer silently swallowed. The remaining changes are formatting only.

Subject: [PATCH 0395/1076] fix(subagent): abort retry backoff when turn fence
 is lost

The retry backoff wait now races against the turn fence when one is
present, so a lost lease cancels the token and ends the attempt instead
of sleeping through the remaining backoff.

Subject: [PATCH 0396/1076] fix(subagent): honor turn fence when reusing
 terminal outcomes

The driver now checks and awaits the turn fence before reading cached or
persisted terminal outcomes and while waiting on an in-flight run, so a
stale turn can no longer observe or reuse a result from a previous turn.

Subject: [PATCH 0398/1076] fix(subagent): fence terminal outcome lookup
 against turn cancellation

The terminal outcome cache check during task reservation now runs under the
turn fence so a cancelled turn cannot leave the lookup hanging. This keeps
the reservation path responsive to cancellation while still avoiding
reopening a task whose in-flight entry was already removed.

Add a barrier executor and a test asserting that a child admitted in an
older parent generation does not surface as a completion after the parent
is cancelled and resumed. This guards against generation leaks when a
running child finishes after its parent has reopened.

Subject: [PATCH 0400/1076] test(subagent): cover fresh-generation child
 alongside suppressed old one

The completion test now runs a second driver in a new generation and asserts
that its child is deliverable while the old generation stays suppressed. This
pins down that suppression is scoped to the generation rather than to the
parent id, which the previous assertion could not distinguish.

spawn_renewer helper, whose signature is dictated by the lease renewal
parameters it needs to pass through.

Subject: [PATCH 0403/1076] chore(subagent): allow too many arguments on
 session store trait

Added a clippy allow attribute to mark_finished_if_current so its
ownership predicate and result parameters stay explicit instead of being
bundled into a struct.

 router tests

Introduces a GateWait type alias for the channel pair used to block and resume the test store, replacing the inline type on BlockingTryList's gate_wait field. This keeps the struct definition readable without changing test behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 0405/1076] test(subagent): cover stale session reuse against
 newer owner

Add a gated document store that pauses after the selector read so a
stale upsert can be interleaved with a newer session owner. The test
asserts the stale attempt fails and the newer owner's task binding is
retained.

 ownership changes

The reuse path now captures the selected session's task id and lifecycle key before mutating, and the mutation aborts if the current session no longer matches that owner. This prevents a stale reuse decision from overwriting a session that was reassigned in the meantime.

Subject: [PATCH 0409/1076] refactor(completions): bundle claim arguments into
 request structs

The `claim_pending` and `claim_task` trait methods took seven and eight
positional arguments respectively, forcing an `allow(clippy::too_many_arguments)`
on each. Both now accept a dedicated request struct so the independent claim
predicates and fencing inputs are named at the call site instead of relying on
argument order.

Subject: [PATCH 0411/1076] feat(subagent): add close callback to scoped
 session store

ScopedSubagentSessionStore can now be built with a host cancellation
callback that fires only after a conditional close succeeds. The close
path was also routed through the scoped implementation so the callback
runs consistently for both close entry points.

Subject: [PATCH 0413/1076] feat(subagent): tombstone cancelled driver-backed
 jobs

Added cancel_key_owned_and_tombstone so an owner-authorized cancellation
immediately tombstones the public result and deregisters steering, preventing a
late completion from the old driver from overwriting the cancelled state. The
completion store's resolve_claim now takes a ResolveClaimRequest struct to keep
the growing set of claim inputs manageable.

Subject: [PATCH 0414/1076] refactor(completions): group claim parameters into
 request structs

The driver's claim_pending, claim_task, and resolve_claim methods now take
dedicated request structs instead of long positional argument lists, matching
the store trait's new signatures. A new registry test covers owner-scoped
cancellation tombstoning a driver job so a late completion cannot overwrite the
cancelled state.

Subject: [PATCH 0415/1076] refactor(completions): pass request structs to
 store claim methods

The completion store's claim and resolve methods now take dedicated
request structs instead of long positional argument lists. This makes
call sites self-documenting and avoids argument-order mistakes as the
parameter count grows. A subagent registry test was also updated to use
the outcome constructor and to assert on cancellation state directly.

Subject: [PATCH 0416/1076] feat(subagent): add parent-scoped roster for live
 and durable jobs

Adds a parent_roster_for_owner helper that merges live subagent jobs and
durable session summaries into one owner- and thread-scoped roster, plus a
format_parent_roster_for_owner wrapper so hosts can render their own wording.
Completion store test doubles were updated to the request-struct claim API.

Subject: [PATCH 0417/1076] fix(subagent): backfill task_id extension on listed
 jobs

Jobs returned by the registry listing now look up the driver job map to
populate the task_id extension when a snapshot lacks it, so callers see a
consistent identifier. The completion driver tests were updated to the new
request-struct claim and resolve APIs.

Subject: [PATCH 0418/1076] refactor(tasks): group lease renewal arguments into
 a context struct

The renewer spawn helper took eight positional arguments and needed a
clippy allow to stay quiet. Passing a LeaseRenewalContext struct instead
makes the call sites self-describing and removes the lint suppression
without changing renewal behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 0420/1076] test(orchestration): cover parent job scope and
 stopped parent reopen

The public facade test now exercises the parent job scope and roster rendering end to end instead of only checking that the symbols exist. A new registry test asserts that clearing and reopening the router pool does not implicitly admit children for a parent that was already stopped.

Subject: [PATCH 0422/1076] feat(tinyagents-tasks): add completion lifecycle
 tracking

Introduce a lifecycle module for completions so task completion state can be tracked and observed as it transitions. This gives the tasks crate a single place to manage when a completion starts, finishes, or fails.

Subject: [PATCH 0423/1076] feat(completions): attach parent lifecycle to
 pooled routers

The router pool now derives a lifecycle key from each store's
coordination identity and attaches a shared ParentLifecycle to newly
opened routers. CompletionStore gains an is_process_local hook so
in-memory stores can reuse retained lifecycle state instead of being
treated as durable backends.

Subject: [PATCH 0424/1076] feat(completions): add process-local parent
 lifecycle to router

The router now retains a ParentLifecycle authority and acquires a local guard alongside each parent gate, so in-process lifecycle state stays consistent with store claims. New attach and handle accessors let the owning scope pool share that authority.

Subject: [PATCH 0425/1076] fix(subagent): invoke close callback when scoped
 session closes

The scoped session store now calls its close callback after the inner
store successfully closes a session, matching the behaviour of the
unscoped store. Previously the callback was skipped, so observers were
not notified of scoped session closures.

Subject: [PATCH 0426/1076] fix(subagent): tombstone cancelled driver jobs
 against late results

Owner cancellation now marks a non-terminal driver job as cancelled so a
late completion cannot revive it. The router also consults the parent
lifecycle status when closing or resuming a parent, so a deleted parent
is not reopened by a stale marker.

Subject: [PATCH 0427/1076] fix(completions): derive parent generation from
 lifecycle markers

Parent generation admission now consults the lifecycle guard instead of
trusting a possibly stale delivered marker, so queued completions that
raced with stop, delete, or reopen are correctly rejected. Markers are
also rewritten when the lifecycle status changes to keep durable and
process-local stores consistent.

Extend the scoped session close test to exercise close_if_current when the
caller owns the current lifecycle key, asserting the close succeeds and the

Subject: [PATCH 0432/1076] refactor(completions): store router lifecycle in
 dedicated mutex

The router now keeps its parent lifecycle handle in a separate mutex
instead of the shared router state lock, so reading the handle no longer
contends with other state mutations. The accessor returns the handle
directly rather than a Result, recovering from a poisoned lock instead
of failing.

Subject: [PATCH 0435/1076] test(completions): cover parent lifecycle across
 pool clear and scope keys

Extend the registry tests to assert that queued admissions are invalidated
when a parent is cancelled and only become valid again after an explicit
resume opens a new generation. Add cases confirming a deleted parent stays
deleted after its router is evicted, and that parent lifecycle state stays
isolated between distinct pool scope keys.

Subject: [PATCH 0440/1076] refactor(completions): split parent gate
 acquisition into native and local guards

The router now acquires parent lifecycle gates separately from the
native store guards, so each guard holds only the resource it needs.
This removes the redundant lifecycle handle from the native path and
keeps the local guard accessor explicit about its invariant.

Subject: [PATCH 0441/1076] feat(completions): share parent lifecycle identity
 across process-local stores

Parent lifecycle state was keyed by a random UUID per router, so separate
routers over the same process-local store could not observe each other's
parent status. The lifecycle now derives its identity from the store's
coordination identity when the store is process-local, and the router no
longer short-circuits on a locally cached status before consulting the
shared marker.

Subject: [PATCH 0443/1076] fix(completions): reconcile process-local parent
 lifecycle status

When the store is process-local, the router now merges the marker's
parent status with the cached lifecycle snapshot instead of trusting the
marker alone. Deleted states take precedence and otherwise the newer
epoch wins, so stale markers can no longer overwrite fresher cached
status.

Subject: [PATCH 0444/1076] fix(completions): resolve parent deletion epoch
 from marker and snapshot

When a parent was marked deleted while the cached lifecycle snapshot still
reported it as open or stopped, the router returned the marker's epoch without
considering the snapshot's. The deletion status now takes the maximum of the
two epochs so the most recent deletion wins.

Subject: [PATCH 0445/1076] refactor(completions): split combined lifecycle
 match arm

The single or-pattern arm handling deleted markers and cached deleted
status has been split into two separate arms so each case computes its
epoch independently. The second arm now takes the maximum of the
snapshot epoch and the marker's epoch, matching the intent of the
original pattern without relying on the shared binding.

 acquisition in parent gate

The parent gate guard now delegates to the native acquisition path and
attaches the local lifecycle guard afterwards, removing the duplicated
retry loop. Gate acquisition order in the router was also swapped so the
store gate is taken before the local gate.

Subject: [PATCH 0448/1076] feat(completions): bind in-memory store to pool
 lifecycle authority

Adds optional parent lifecycle binding to the completion store trait so
process-local routers sharing one backing store can agree on a single
lifecycle authority. The in-memory store now retains the binding and
rejects conflicting pool scopes, and a subagent test covers late
completion suppression against an owner-cancelled job.

Subject: [PATCH 0452/1076] feat(completions): bind parent lifecycle to
 process-local stores

Routers now reuse the parent lifecycle already bound to a process-local
store instead of always creating a fresh one, and attaching a lifecycle
binds it back to the store so both stay in sync. This keeps lifecycle
state consistent across cached routers and their backing stores.

 aliasing

Adds assertions that CompletionAdmission::for_store derives the same
batch key as the router-based constructor, both before and after a pool
clear and reopen. This guards against the store alias drifting from the
pool-bound lifecycle coordination key.

Subject: [PATCH 0454/1076] test(completions): qualify batch_key calls in
 registry tests

The registry tests now call batch_key through the QueueAdmission trait explicitly instead of relying on method resolution, keeping the assertions compiling against the intended trait implementation.

Subject: [PATCH 0456/1076] fix(subagent): tombstone completions on
 owner-authorized cancel

Cancellation now reserves the router completion slot so a pending or late
result from the old driver cannot replace the cancellation record. Foreign
owners are rejected before the router is touched, and cancelling an
already-terminal job returns a Terminal error instead of silently
succeeding.

Subject: [PATCH 0458/1076] fix(completions): use store's parent lifecycle for
 admission keys

Admission now derives the parent lifecycle from the process-local store
when one is available, falling back to the router's own lifecycle
otherwise. This keeps the queue key consistent with the store's actual
lifecycle and rejects the permit if the store's lifecycle changes
between acquisition and validation.

 acquiring local lifecycles

Parent gate leases could expire while the router waited to acquire local
lifecycles, letting a completion proceed against a parent that was no longer
gated. The gate is now renewed after the local acquisition and the operation
fails with a graph error if the lease has already lapsed.

Subject: [PATCH 0461/1076] fix(completions): bind parent lifecycle on
 process-local replacement

When a replacement store is process-local, the router now binds it to the
parent lifecycle before taking the first snapshot. Without this the
replacement could be admitted without the lifecycle gate that process-local
stores rely on.

 LostRenewalGateStore

The test double for the completion store only forwarded the gate
operations to its inner store, so any test exercising reads or writes
through it would have silently seen no records. The missing methods now
delegate to the wrapped store so the double behaves like the real one.

Subject: [PATCH 0463/1076] test(completions): fix retry test to stop failing
 after first attempt

The transient store failure test set fail_from to 1, which made the
store keep failing on every subsequent attempt instead of recovering
after the first failure. Setting it to usize::MAX ensures only the
initial put fails so the retry path is actually exercised.

Subject: [PATCH 0465/1076] fix(completions): allow a store to bind multiple
 pool scopes

The in-memory completion store tracked a single parent lifecycle and
rejected any second binding, so a store shared across pool scopes could
not represent all of its owners. It now keeps a map keyed by lifecycle
identity and reports ambiguity when more than one scope is bound, while
the owner-cancel path in the subagent job registry no longer writes a
durable completion-router tombstone.

Admission now returns a retry error when a process-local store's parent
lifecycle cannot be determined, and batch key derivation bails out in the
same situation. This prevents admitting work against a lifecycle that may
have changed underneath the snapshot.

computation drop the ambiguity checks since the store can no longer be bound
to more than one scope.

Subject: [PATCH 0471/1076] test(completions): cover pool scope rejection and
 alias key parity

Reworked the registry tests so one memory store rejects a second pool scope while the first keeps working, and added a check that router and store admission aliases produce the same batch key. The store change is only a formatting tweak to parent_lifecycle.

Subject: [PATCH 0472/1076] test(completions): verify release_all clears claims
 in each router's own store

The pool_release_all test now reopens each cached router against its own
store rather than a single shared store, so it actually checks that
release_all clears claims from every router rather than only the last one.

The store previously rejected binding a parent lifecycle when one was
already set to a different pool scope. That guard is removed so the
lifecycle can be replaced, matching the intended behaviour of tracking
the current pool scope.

The in-memory completion store now returns an error when binding a parent
lifecycle if it is already bound to a different pool scope. This prevents
silently replacing the lifecycle and leaving the original scope unmanaged.

 tombstone is absent

The job registry now only rejects a terminal job when a completion
tombstone exists, so jobs without one can still be resumed. Tests were
updated to wait for a specific task id and to seed an existing pending
record when asserting that a cancelled child is not pushed back.

 test

The test now asserts that no pending completions remain for the parent after a child is cancelled, dropping the pre-seeded record that only served to distinguish the cancelled child from an unrelated entry.

Adjust indentation and line wrapping in the subagent job registry and
session store to satisfy rustfmt. Reorder imports and collapse a
multi-line assertion in the public parent job scope tests without
changing any behaviour.

Adds a test asserting that both the single-job and collect-all await
paths keep the durable task key on the awaiting-user envelope. This
guards against the key being dropped when a session is parked awaiting
user input.

Subject: [PATCH 0484/1076] fix(subagent): correct terminal job guard condition

The completion check now rejects terminal jobs when no tombstone exists or
cancellation was not requested, replacing the previous condition that only
triggered when all three held. This aligns the guard with the intended
terminal-state handling.

Subject: [PATCH 0485/1076] fix(subagent): reject cancel requests for unknown
 or unowned jobs

Cancel now verifies the job exists and belongs to the caller before
touching its control state, returning NotFound otherwise. This prevents
cancelling a job the caller does not own and avoids mutating controls
for jobs that were never registered.

 outcome equality

Adds a unit test asserting that ToolCallOutcome equality distinguishes each observed field, including call id, name, arguments, success, content, and duration. This guards against future changes that would silently drop a field from the comparison.

Subject: [PATCH 0489/1076] feat(runtime): add post-commit observation sink for
 host adapters

Introduces a PostCommitSink trait and PostCommitObservation payload so hosts
can observe execution facts after a durable commit without being able to roll
it back. Tool-call outcomes are now captured at the harness boundary and
carried through the turn report and driver outcome so they reach the sink.

Subject: [PATCH 0490/1076] feat(runtime): add host identity resolver to
 session builder

Sessions can now resolve a logical key against host-authorized storage
through a SessionIdentityResolver, with separate entry points for root
and child sessions so parent lineage is preserved. A codec is now
required whenever an identity resolver is configured.

Subject: [PATCH 0492/1076] feat(runtime): resolve and bind session identity
 per turn

Added a resolve_and_bind step that runs after resume preparation to
resolve the session identity from the configured resolver and bind it to
the transcript target. It rejects empty agent ids, incomplete child
lineage, and conflicts with the caller's session or before_resume target,
and enforces that the identity and pinned store stay stable across turns.
The turn now resumes through the admitted path so the resolved identity is

Subject: [PATCH 0493/1076] test(runtime): populate tool_outcomes in driver
 test fixtures

The DriverOutcome struct gained a tool_outcomes field, so the test
drivers and outcome helpers in the runtime test suite now set it to an
empty vector to keep the fixtures compiling.

Subject: [PATCH 0494/1076] feat(runtime): dispatch post-commit observations to
 sinks

After a durable commit the runtime now builds a PostCommitObservation
carrying the receipt, original input, usage, tool outcomes and session
identity, and fans it out to registered PostCommitSink implementations
alongside the existing after_commit hook. The observation type is
re-exported from the crate root so sinks can be implemented downstream.

Subject: [PATCH 0495/1076] test(session): cover post-commit sink lifecycle and
 failure paths

Adds tests for owned post-commit sinks surviving caller abort, persisted
failure partials skipping sinks while emitting a single failed terminal,
pre-commit errors not invoking sinks, interrupted turns still invoking
sinks, and sink errors leaving a successful turn result unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 0496/1076] test(tool): cover typed extension retention across
 snapshot copies

Adds a snapshot test asserting that host-owned typed extensions survive
clone, retaining, and with_retained operations while leaving the
serialized JSON unchanged. Also verifies that replacing an extension
does not mutate the original snapshot.

Subject: [PATCH 0497/1076] feat(runtime): add host-only tool policy and
 snapshot extensions

Introduce a deny-by-default HostOnlyToolPolicy that delegates allowed
calls to an optional host policy, plus helpers to deduplicate visible
tool specs and drop synthesized declarations shadowed by durable ones.
ToolSnapshot now carries host-defined extensions keyed by Rust type so
hosts can attach metadata without serializing it into tool specs.

Subject: [PATCH 0499/1076] test(runtime): add fixed identity resolver test
 helper

Adds a FixedIdentityResolver implementing SessionIdentityResolver for use in runtime tests. It records resolve calls and leases session stores for a configurable agent id so tests can exercise identity resolution without a real resolver.

Subject: [PATCH 0500/1076] test(runtime): cover direct resume and child
 identity lineage

Adds tests asserting that a direct resume resolves identity once and
uses the admitted lease, and that child identity resolution keeps the
child transcript scoped to the child while preserving the parent
lineage.

Subject: [PATCH 0501/1076] feat(config): add context module and re-export its
 items

Introduces a new context submodule to the harness config and re-exports
its contents alongside the existing types. The runtime test for child
identity now asserts subagent status and session stem lineage instead of
comparing parent session ids directly.

Adds tests asserting that a hook cannot replace an already resolved
identity locator before any transcript read, and that a later agent
change is rejected before another driver call. Also covers host-only
tool policy blocking unknown calls in the turn plan without executing
them.

Subject: [PATCH 0505/1076] feat(config): add detailed context configuration
 options

This introduces several new fields to ContextConfig to provide finer-grained control over context management. These additions allow users to configure features like microcompaction, automatic summarization, and specific payload size limits for tool results and summarization operations.

 dependency

Adds a summary module to the runtime crate and pulls in sha2 for hashing support. The new module is wired into the crate root so it can be used by the rest of the runtime.

hiding failures from operators. The errors are now reported through
tracing warnings so that broken hooks or sinks are visible without
interrupting the commit path.

Subject: [PATCH 0510/1076] fix(snapshot): skip merge when snapshot is exact

An exact snapshot now returns itself unchanged instead of merging with the
recorded snapshot. Exact snapshots already represent the full tool set, so
merging could only introduce duplicate or stale entries.

Clarify that implementations must reuse the actor-bound provider and its

Adds two session tests: one confirms the same admission can resume the
current generation twice without extra driver calls, and one confirms a
failing identity resolver leaves the builder fallback locator untouched.

Subject: [PATCH 0514/1076] test(runtime): cover backend change rejection for
 established sessions

Adds a test that switches the session store provider behind an
established session and asserts the next turn fails with an invalid
session state error while the original driver is never invoked. A fresh
session built against the new provider is then admitted successfully,
confirming the rejection is scoped to already-established sessions.

Subject: [PATCH 0518/1076] test(session): cover replay repair of leading
 orphan tool rows

Adds runtime session tests that verify resume repairs a leading orphan
tool head before dispatch, both when the orphan is present in the raw
transcript and when the decoder synthesizes it. The tests also assert
that replay repair leaves the durable transcript rows unchanged.

 agent_id assignment

Adjust the session tests to match the transcript API, dropping the now-unused TranscriptRead import and assigning agent_id directly instead of wrapping it in Some.

Subject: [PATCH 0520/1076] fix(session): repair orphaned tool heads during
 transcript replay

Replay now runs the transcript through the orphaned tool head repair
before and after decoding, so histories whose head was compacted or
truncated no longer fail to load. The repair is only applied when it
actually changes the messages, leaving the common case untouched.

 next message

The resume repair test now expects the decoded history to include the
following "next" message alongside the frozen prompt and durable user row,
so the assertion reflects the full repaired sequence before dispatch.

Subject: [PATCH 0527/1076] feat(runtime): track lossless reconcile baseline in
 session

Session now keeps a separate reconcile_prior row set alongside persisted
so replay reconciliation uses the original transcript rows as its write
baseline. This keeps a successful turn rolling forward into a successor
generation without erasing its source when orphan-head repair shortens
the persisted history.

 semantics

Expanded the `reconcile` doc comment to explain that `prior` is the durable
row set aligned with `previous` and that replay-only repairs may omit rows
from this correspondence. Those source rows stay in the session's unmodified
write baseline and are preserved in a sealed generation.

Subject: [PATCH 0529/1076] fix(session): reset reconcile_prior when restoring
 or clearing transcript state

Keep the reconcile baseline in sync with the persisted messages when a
transcript is loaded or reset, so later reconciliation compares against
the correct prior state instead of stale data.

Subject: [PATCH 0530/1076] test(session): cover replay repair across resume
 modes

Adds coverage for successful replay repairing the same source generation
under both thread and latest-for-agent resume modes, and for keeping raw
rows aligned after a decoded tool row is repaired. The new cases guard
against regressions where repaired transcripts lose their original
metadata or drift out of correspondence with the sealed source.

Subject: [PATCH 0531/1076] fix(session): keep reconcile prior rows aligned
 with decoded replay

The replay reconciliation now drops raw prior rows that correspond to
leading tool messages removed during decode, so the default reconciler no
longer reuses a stale raw row for the following user message. When
switching to a destination transcript that shares the same source path,
the prior rows are left untouched instead of being overwritten.

Subject: [PATCH 0534/1076] fix(session): treat identical transcripts as
 already copied

The copy check now also treats a destination transcript whose messages
match the source as already copied, so sessions with the same content but
different paths are not copied again.

 transcript messages

The destination transcript was being compared against the transcript
after it had been reassigned, so the equality check could match the
wrong message set. Capturing the scanned messages up front keeps the
comparison anchored to the transcript that was actually read.

Subject: [PATCH 0540/1076] fix(session): avoid clobbering reconcile_prior on
 same-source reads

Skip overwriting reconcile_prior when the destination transcript resolves to the same session or path as the scanned source, and trim orphaned tool-head messages from the prior set when the decoded transcript matches its length. This prevents duplicate or stale prior messages from being carried into reconciliation.

Subject: [PATCH 0544/1076] feat(close): add record_close_call_with_cost helper

Adds a variant of record_close_call that accepts a cost callback so the
host can attach pricing from its billing and catalog adapters without
importing host types into the harness. The callback runs after the close
call is recorded and updates the pricing model and accumulated cost when
it returns a value.

Subject: [PATCH 0545/1076] fix(harness): correct "Gather is over" to
 "Gathering is over" in final write needle

The final-write close copy used the noun phrase "Gather is over" where the
gerund "Gathering is over" was intended, so the instruction read as
ungrammatical. The wording now matches the surrounding prose.

Subject: [PATCH 0547/1076] fix(turn_stop): remove english_stop_reason helper

The public english_stop_reason function was dropped from turn_stop.rs, so
callers now supply the stop-reason prose directly. Tests were updated to
inline the transient summary text and to cover failure scrubbing and the
eight-row grouping limit.

 closure parameter

Added an explicit type annotation to the render_block closure in the close tests so the parameter type is inferred correctly and the test compiles cleanly.

 stop summary

The stop summary test now scrubs a second secret pattern and expects the
grouped failure count to reflect both redacted entries. This keeps the
assertions aligned with the expanded redaction behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 0550/1076] test(harness): cover custom close copy literals and
 repair reasons

Adds tests asserting that close copy renderers preserve custom
templates and literals, that every repair reason maps to its configured
message, and that verification prompts do not rescan placeholder-shaped
content in the request, records, or reply. Also checks that final
summary copy keeps each result status and body byte for byte.

Subject: [PATCH 0552/1076] test(harness): cover early stream drop and
 content-free terminal failure

Adds a test asserting that dropping the close-source model stream early
still records a model failure event after the started event. Also adds a
test verifying that a deferred terminal failure reports a content-free
error message and matching terminal outcome, and updates the close copy
renderer test to expect the new omitted-notice format.

Subject: [PATCH 0553/1076] test(harness): cover close source model stream
 trace events

Adds a test asserting that a successful close source model stream emits
exactly one ModelStarted, UsageRecorded, and ModelCompleted event in order,
guarding against duplicate trace emissions.

Subject: [PATCH 0555/1076] test(harness): cover repeated timeout and
 successful repeat summaries

Adds two tests for the turn stop summary. One pins the production golden
output for a repeated timeout alongside a successful call, and the other
verifies that repeated successful calls are reported as successes without
any failure wording or tool content leaking into the summary.

Subject: [PATCH 0561/1076] fix(tinyagents-harness): preserve stream metadata
 and end tracing at eof

The close source model now propagates the request correlation id into the
returned stream metadata when the underlying stream does not supply one, so
downstream consumers can still correlate responses. Tracing is also finalized
on end of stream, ensuring the supplemental call guard is completed or dropped
even when the consumer keeps the stream after observing the end.

Subject: [PATCH 0562/1076] test(close): cover host block rendering and
 classified halt output

Adds golden coverage for the host block renderer's leading newline and
multiline output, and checks that newline-heavy results stay within the
total budget while still surfacing the omission notice and the most
recent result. Also asserts that a classified halt renders partial work
without leaking successful payloads or charging provider usage.

 URL checks

Adds a public url_guard module to the harness crate so shared URL
admission rules, including SSRF checks and DNS address pinning, are
available to callers.

+//! Shared URL validation + SSRF guards for outbound network tools.
+//!
+//! Used by `http_request`, `curl`, and any future tool that takes a
+//! user-supplied URL. Two allowlist modes:
+//!
+//! - **Open allowlist** (`allowed_domains` is empty): any public non-private
+//!   host is permitted. All SSRF guards still apply (loopback / RFC1918 /
+//!   link-local / multicast / documentation / shared-address /
+//!   IPv4-mapped and transition IPv6, `localhost` / `*.localhost` / `*.local`).
+//! - **Strict allowlist** (`allowed_domains` is non-empty): only the listed
+//!   domains and their subdomains are permitted.
+//!
+//! Both modes enforce: http(s) only, no whitespace, no userinfo, no IPv6 hosts,
+//! no backslash anywhere, and no percent-encoding in the host — the last two
+//! because a WHATWG parser would read them as a different host than the one
+//! checked here.
+//!
+//! **Alternate IP notations** (octal, hex, decimal): Rust's `IpAddr::parse`
+//! rejects them so they are treated as plain hostnames. In strict-allowlist
+//! mode they are rejected by the domain check. In open-allowlist mode they
+//! pass `validate_url` but are caught by `validate_url_with_dns_check`
+//! because they fail real-world DNS resolution.
+//!
+//! ## DNS Rebinding
+//!
+//! Hostname validation alone is insufficient: an attacker can register a
+//! domain that alternates DNS responses between a public IP (passing the
+//! allowlist) and a private IP (e.g. 127.0.0.1).
+//! [`validate_url_with_dns_check`] resolves the hostname, vets every
+//! resolved IP, and returns them in a [`ValidatedUrl`]. That closes the gap
+//! **only if the caller connects to [`ValidatedUrl::addrs`]** — for example
+//! via `reqwest::ClientBuilder::resolve_to_addrs` — rather than letting its
+//! HTTP client resolve the hostname a second time. This crate carries no
+//! HTTP client, so the pinning is the caller's responsibility. The network
+//! tools in [`crate::network`] do pin: they connect only to the vetted
+//! addresses, which are either the ones this module resolved or the ones the
+//! host's [`NetGate::authorize_destination`](crate::network::NetGate::authorize_destination)
+//! authorized.

Subject: [PATCH 0564/1076] chore(tinyagents-harness): vendor url_guard and
 switch to tracing

The URL admission guard used by remote multimodal attachments now lives
in the harness instead of the optional tinytools-std dependency, so the
multimodal feature no longer pulls that crate in. Its logging was moved
from log to tracing to match the rest of the crate.

Subject: [PATCH 0565/1076] chore(deps): drop tinytools-std and its transitive
 dependencies

The harness no longer depends on tinytools-std, so the lockfile entries for
it and its transitive crates (glob, mime, mime_guess, same-file, unicase,
walkdir) are removed. The url_guard module docs were trimmed to drop the
reference to network tools that no longer exist in this crate.

Introduce the harness tool set covering command execution with timeout
handling and process cleanup, filesystem operations such as apply_patch,
edit_file and workspace state reads, and network tools including curl,
http_request and web_fetch. Each tool ships with contract tests and JSON
fixtures so behaviour stays pinned across changes.

+//! Provoking a real refusal from a test is where this gets awkward. A

+/// This is an allowlist, and the direction is the whole point. Several git
+/// config keys name a command that git then executes — `core.fsmonitor` is
+/// run by `git status` (used by the `status` operation here), `core.sshCommand`
+/// by anything that reaches a remote, `diff.external` by `diff`, `core.pager`
+/// and `core.editor` by the commands that use them, and the `filter.*.process`
+/// / `*.clean` / `*.smudge` and `diff.*.textconv` families by content
+/// operations. Enumerating *those* and clearing them is the obvious fix and it
+/// is the wrong shape: the list is only correct until git adds a key, and a
+/// denylist that has gone stale reads as protection while providing none.
+///
+/// An allowlist ages the other way. A key nobody here has heard of is refused,
+/// so a new git release makes this tool fail closed and loud rather than

+///   bypass this hardening exists to close — verified directly: pointing

+///   [`suppress_ambient_git_config`] already uses for `GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL`,
+///   since a location with nothing at it is exactly what git needs it to be.
+/// - `commit.gpgSign=false`. `commit.gpgsign` is on [`ALLOWED_REPO_CONFIG`] as
+///   an ordinary boolean, but a repository could still set it to force every
+///   commit through this tool to be GPG-signed — with whatever real signing
+///   key the *host* happens to have configured, silently attributing a
+///   cryptographic signature to a commit the operator did not ask this tool to

+/// (system/global suppressed) reports it.
+///
+/// This step must run through [`suppress_ambient_git_config`] alone, **not**
+/// [`hardened_git`]: the latter's `-c` layer would inject the very keys this
+/// check inspects for (`core.fsmonitor=`, `core.pager=cat`, …), none of which

+/// A non-zero exit here is treated as a refusal, not as "nothing to

+/// `error: cannot run : No such file or directory` /
+/// `fatal: external diff died`, on every repository, hostile or not. The
+/// hardening removed the operation instead of hardening it. `--no-ext-diff`
+/// on the diff command is the real suppression.
+///
+/// This lives in the lib suite deliberately. The integration test that caught
+/// it sits in `raw_coverage_all`, and a change to `git_operations.rs` maps to
+/// the `openhuman::tools` libtest filter — which never selects that target. So
+/// the lane the change picks did not run the test covering the change, and the
+/// breakage sat until an unrelated PR happened to select the other filter.
+/// A test here runs whenever this file is touched.
+///
+/// A repository that *sets* `diff.external` is a separate matter and is
+/// already refused before reaching the invocation: the key is on neither

+//! `glob` — find files by glob pattern.
+//!
+//! Coding-harness baseline tool (issue #1205): pure file discovery
+//! by pattern (e.g. `src/**/*.rs`).
+//!
+//! ## Path-root contract (issue #3357)
+//!
+//! `glob` resolves its search root through the **same** seam the reader tools
+//! use — [`FsGate::validate_path`] — and filters every hit through
+//! [`FsGate::paths_string_allowed`] (one batch call per search). This guarantees the core
+//! invariant a discovery tool must hold: **every path `glob` returns is a path
+//! `file_read`/`grep`/`list` can open, and nothing else.**
+//!
+//! Previously `glob` walked `workspace_dir` (internal product state) and
+//! returned paths relative to it, while the readers resolve relative paths
+//! against `action_dir`. The two roots normally differ, so a path `glob`
+//! returned was meaningless to the readers — every follow-up read failed with
+//! "No such file or directory (os error 2)" (#3357). Walking `workspace_dir`
+//! also let the agent enumerate internal state (memory DBs, sessions, tokens).
+//!
+//! The optional `path` argument lets the agent search any location it is
+//! allowed to read (the action sandbox by default, or a granted `trusted_root`)
+//! — it is resolved through `validate_path`, so it can never widen access
+//! beyond what the readers already permit.

+//! Network tools: `http_request`, `web_fetch`, `curl` and `pushover`.
+//!
+//! Every tool takes an `Arc<dyn NetGate>`: the tool performs the I/O, the
+//! host's gate decides whether it may (autonomy, action budget, approval,
+//! privacy mode) and how the process-wide proxy is applied. The gate trait
+//! ([`NetGate`]) is the whole seam; nothing here knows what an autonomy level,
+//! an approval prompt or an egress descriptor is. URL allowlisting and SSRF
+//! checks are [`crate::url_guard`]'s.
+//!
+//! Two more seams keep host-specific behavior out of the tools: a
+//! [`PaymentHook`] answers a `402 Payment Required` for `http_request`, and an
+//! [`HtmlExtractor`] turns pages into Markdown for `web_fetch`.
+
+// These tools moved here verbatim from a host crate; their behavior, messages
+// and control flow are pinned by tests and by the fixtures in `fixtures/`, so
+// the purely stylistic pedantic lints below are allowed rather than reshaping
+// working code (long `execute` bodies, `usize as f64` size labels, and so on).

Subject: [PATCH 0567/1076] feat(fs): add file state tracking for agent context

Introduce a file_state module that records read and write state so
agents can reason about files they have already touched. The module
exposes per-file snapshots and operations for updating them as the
agent works.

+//! Process-wide file state coordinator for cross-agent staleness detection.

+//! Parallel subagents and worker threads share a workspace. Without
+//! coordination one worker can read a file, a sibling can edit it, and
+//! the first worker can later write based on stale content. This module
+//! tracks per-agent read stamps and, for every path, each agent's latest
+//! write stamp so that write tools can detect the conflict and return a
+//! model-facing error requiring the agent to re-read. A read counts as stale
+//! when *any* other agent wrote after it, not only the most recent writer.
+//!
+//! A read tool captures `Instant::now()` *before* it opens the file and hands
+//! that stamp to [`record_read`] afterwards, so a sibling write racing the
+//! read's I/O is ordered after the read and still reported stale.
+//!
+//! The guard is opt-in for the process: the host calls [`init_global`] with
+//! `enabled` (typically derived from its own configuration or environment).
+//! Until it does, or when it passes `false`, every operation is a no-op.

Subject: [PATCH 0569/1076] feat(fs): gate filesystem, network and exec tools
 behind cargo features

The crate now exposes fs, net, exec, media and plan-review as optional
features so consumers can pull in only the tool families they need, with
their dependencies declared as optional. Test modules were also renamed
from the singular `mod test` convention to `mod tests`, and the text
truncation tests moved to a matching file name.

Subject: [PATCH 0570/1076] build(deps): pin regex to version 1 in
 harness-tools

The regex dependency in tinyagents-harness-tools now specifies version 1 directly instead of inheriting from the workspace, and the lockfile picks up the resulting transitive dependencies.

Replaced the log crate call with tracing when reporting the configured
inherited timeout, so timeout diagnostics go through the same logging
pipeline as the rest of the harness.

+//! Progress for a running shell call.
+//!
+//! A shell call can legitimately run for many minutes (a build, a test suite,
+//! a download), and until it exits the turn shows nothing. While it runs,
+//! [`with_exec_progress`] reports a status line through the harness's
+//! [`ToolRunContext::report_progress`] seam every [`HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL`]: the
+//! elapsed time, how much output the command has written, and its last output
+//! line. The agent loop turns each report into `AgentEvent::ToolProgressDetail`
+//! for the call, which the web channel projects as `tool_progress`.
+//!
+//! The output figures come from [`ExecProgress`], which
+//! `shell_exec::collect_process` feeds with every chunk it reads from the
+//! process. Paths that do not stream output (the Docker backend) still report
+//! the elapsed time.

Subject: [PATCH 0581/1076] test(exec): reorder assertions in denied gate test

Move the backend dispatch check ahead of the error assertion so the test
verifies that denial happens before the backend is called even if the
error flag is wrong.

Subject: [PATCH 0582/1076] feat(exec): add schema, timeouts, and audit events
 to exec tool

The exec tool now advertises a real parameter schema with command, category, and timeout_secs, and routes execution through the authorization gate so permits supply the action directory, environment, and backend selection. Audit events are recorded for gate denials and backend outcomes, and results are produced via the shared exec_result helper with progress heartbeats and a 30k character result cap.

Subject: [PATCH 0583/1076] feat(exec): add shell description and support
 modules

Wire the new shell_description and shell_support modules into the exec
module tree and update the tool imports accordingly. The removed
ExecRefusalKind import is no longer referenced now that refusal handling
lives in the new modules.

 assertions

The assertions in python_utf8_defaults_keep_explicit_values now pass
OsStr::new values to the environment map lookup instead of string
literals, matching the map's key type and keeping the test compiling
without relying on implicit conversion.

Subject: [PATCH 0588/1076] feat(exec): stream command output to progress meter

Added progress-aware variants of the timeout output helpers so callers can
observe command output as it arrives instead of only after completion. The
existing functions now delegate to these variants with no progress meter,
preserving their behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 0594/1076] feat(schema): add static schema macro and plan
 review module

Introduce a static_schema! macro that parses embedded JSON at compile time, and switch the install tool's parameters schema to use it via a new install_schema.json file. Also expose a new schema module and a feature-gated plan_review module from the crate root.

Subject: [PATCH 0595/1076] chore(tinyagents-harness-tools): remove plan_review
 module

The plan_review module is no longer exported from the crate, dropping the
feature-gated public API that was previously exposed under the plan-review
feature.

Subject: [PATCH 0597/1076] refactor(media): drop redundant as_ref in artifact
 tool

The per-call factory result is now kept as an owned value instead of being
borrowed through as_ref, since the match arm only needs a reference to the
tool and the temporary binding already outlives its use.

instead of relying on transitive re-exports. The artifact tool test
switches from ToolResult::success_json to ToolResult::json to match the
current API.

Subject: [PATCH 0606/1076] refactor(exec): return plain error strings from
 operation parsing

The operation helper now returns a String error instead of a ToolResult, and the caller wraps it with ToolResult::error. This keeps the parsing helper free of result construction and removes a redundant format! call.

Subject: [PATCH 0608/1076] test(media): cover concurrent artifact calls
 keeping per-call context

Adds a test that runs two artifact tool invocations concurrently and
asserts each result is filed using its own invocation context. A routing
filer reads the call identity from the host extension to verify the
context is not shared or overwritten between overlapping calls.

Subject: [PATCH 0609/1076] refactor(media): extract progress label helper

Moved the heartbeat label selection for media artifact kinds into a
dedicated progress_label function so the mapping can be reused and
tested directly. Added a unit test asserting the exact labels for image
and video kinds.

Subject: [PATCH 0611/1076] refactor(media): move artifact tool tests into the
 tool module

The test module for the media artifact tool now lives alongside the code it
exercises instead of being declared in the parent module. The progress label
helper is private to the tool module, so the tests no longer need to reach it
through a super path.

 delegation

Extend the install tool tests so the fake gate actually exercises argument-dependent behavior, verifying that authorization preparation and external-effect checks are delegated to the gate. Also reformat the media artifact heartbeat label assertions without changing what they assert.

for installs instead of relying on the default trait behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 0614/1076] test(exec): cover ambient turn environment
 isolation

Add a Unix-only test asserting the native backend does not leak the
turn's ambient environment into executed commands. It runs a shell that
prints leaked when DENIED_FROM_TURN is visible and clean otherwise, so a
regression in environment scoping fails loudly.

Subject: [PATCH 0615/1076] feat(exec): add isolated command output helpers

Adds output_or_kill_with_progress_isolated and
output_unbounded_with_progress_isolated variants that skip applying
task-local ambient variables to the child process. The existing helpers
now delegate to shared mode functions so callers can opt out of
inheriting the task environment when spawning commands.

Subject: [PATCH 0617/1076] feat(exec): retain captured output when a command
 times out

Adds a captured-output variant of the isolated timeout runner so bytes
collected before the deadline remain available after the process is
killed. The process waiter now stores its output before acknowledging
cleanup, letting callers inspect partial stdout and stderr on timeout.

Subject: [PATCH 0619/1076] fix(exec): preserve partial output when a command
 times out

The isolated timeout path now captures whatever stdout and stderr the
process produced before the deadline fired, instead of discarding it.
The timeout test was extended to assert that partial output survives the
process group kill.

Subject: [PATCH 0620/1076] refactor(exec): return captured output on native
 backend timeout

The native exec backend now consumes the CapturedCommandResult enum from the
timeout helper instead of a nested Result. Timed-out commands previously
reported empty stdout and stderr with no exit code, discarding whatever the
process had written; the new variant carries the captured output so callers
see the partial result.

Subject: [PATCH 0624/1076] feat(media): let hosts supply the tool call id for
 filed artifacts

MediaArtifactTool now accepts a host-provided extractor that pulls the
provider-assigned call identifier from the erased run context, and filed
artifacts carry that id instead of always reporting none. This lets hosts
correlate generated media with the originating tool call.

Subject: [PATCH 0629/1076] fix(exec): handle missing output when a command
 times out

The timeout path assumed the process waiter always stored its output before acknowledging cleanup, so a deadline that fired first would panic. The captured result now carries an optional output and the native backend reports empty streams and no exit code when nothing was captured.

Subject: [PATCH 0631/1076] refactor(harness-tools): move exec schemas into
 static json files

The exec tool now loads its parameter schema from per-flavor JSON files
instead of building it inline, so the Posix and Cmd schemas can diverge
without branching logic. The media artifact tool's per-call factory type
alias was renamed to MediaInnerFactory and made public for reuse.

 tidy test formatting

The artifact tool test now wires a tool call id resolver and asserts the generated artifact carries the matching id, covering the propagation path that was previously untested. The exec backend tests were reformatted to satisfy rustfmt without changing behaviour.

current behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 0637/1076] test(exec): harden native backend timeout tests

Quote the pidfile path when building the shell command so paths containing
spaces or quotes no longer break the descendant tracking tests. Wait for the
pidfile to contain a parseable pid instead of merely existing, and clarify the
assertion messages to refer to descendants rather than children. Remove a
duplicate zero-deadline timeout test that is already covered elsewhere.

Subject: [PATCH 0638/1076] test(media): cover per-call inner artifact filing

Adds a test that exercises MediaArtifactTool with a per-call inner factory,
verifying that stable metadata is preserved and that multiple artifact entries
are filed independently, including partial failures that leave the original
path and an error marker in place.

 into helper

Moved the logic that picks and validates a package manager out of the
tool's execute method into a standalone resolve_manager function. The
lookup now takes an injected path-checking closure, which makes the
resolution rules testable without touching the real PATH.

Subject: [PATCH 0644/1076] test(install_tool): cover manager resolution and
 install failure paths

Adds tests asserting the exact error strings for missing and unsupported
package managers, and for installs that fail to launch, exit non-zero, or
time out. The test backend now accepts a preset outcome so these failure
paths can be exercised deterministically.

Subject: [PATCH 0645/1076] test(media): cover per-call heartbeat progress
 reporting

Adds a test that drives MediaArtifactTool with a per-call inner tool and a
recording run context, asserting the heartbeat reports the job state from the
per-call progress callback. This locks in the expected progress message for
per-call jobs so future changes to the heartbeat cannot silently drop the job
state suffix.

The timeout and cancellation tests now record the shell's own pid and
assert that it has been reaped, so the tests cover cleanup of the direct
child rather than only its descendants. A helper checks for the absence
of the process's /proc entry on Linux.

Added eprintln statements that print the generated shell commands in the timeout and cancellation tests. This makes it easier to reproduce and debug failures in the native process cleanup fixtures.

Subject: [PATCH 0651/1076] test(exec): make native backend fixtures more
 robust

The timeout and cancellation fixtures now write PIDs with printf instead of
echo and drop the debug eprintln calls. The timeout fixture's deadline was
raised from 100ms to 1s and the cancellation wait from 3s to 8s so the tests
are less likely to flake on slow machines.

Subject: [PATCH 0652/1076] test(exec): simplify native backend cleanup
 assertions

The timeout and cancellation tests now drive cleanup through
ProcessCleanup::scope and wait, dropping the separate shell pid tracking and
the process_is_reaped helper. The remaining assertions still verify that the
descendant process is gone or zombie after cleanup, while the cancellation
test's readiness timeout is shortened to three seconds.

Subject: [PATCH 0655/1076] test(exec): make native backend timeout tests
 record the real child pid

The two native backend tests now spawn the sleeping process through an
explicit `/bin/sh -c` wrapper that writes its own pid before exec'ing
sleep, so the pidfile holds the pid of the process that actually needs
reaping. The previous `sleep 30 & child=$!` form recorded a pid that did
not match the descendant the backend has to clean up.

Subject: [PATCH 0658/1076] test(exec): make native backend timeout tests
 deterministic

The descendant cleanup tests now spawn the backend execution on a separate task and wait for the child pid to be written before proceeding, so the timeout path is exercised reliably instead of racing the shell startup. The shell commands were simplified to record the background child's pid directly.

Adds a test that a review port returning an error makes the tool report
the failure without approving the plan. This guards the fail-closed

+### Host-backed tools
+
+`ExecTool` and `InstallTool` receive an `ExecGate` and an `ExecBackend` from the
+host. The gate authorizes the parsed request before the backend can spawn a
+process; the permit carries the backend selection, capability, working
+directory, and environment chosen for that call. `NativeExecBackend::new`
+selects a shell flavor, but does not choose whether native execution is safe.
+Hosts own approval, security policy, sandbox selection, and audit policy and
+may instead provide a sandbox or remote backend. Keep those decisions in the
+host adapter.
+
+For turns that can be cancelled, hosts should create a
+`exec::timeout::ProcessCleanup`, run the turn future inside `scope`, drop that
+future when cancelling, and await `wait` before acknowledging cancellation.
+The native backend registers its child waiter with the active scope; the wait
+ensures the process and captured output pipes are finished first. Work handed
+to a host-owned task must explicitly inherit cleanup with
+`ProcessCleanup::hold` and drop the hold after stopping.
+
+`MediaArtifactTool` takes an `ArtifactFiling` implementation. The host owns
+artifact persistence, file-root checks, and blob lifecycle; the generic wrapper
+only maps returned artifact records and rewrites their paths. Likewise,
+`RequestPlanReviewTool` uses `PlanReviewPort` to request a host review and
+returns its resolution without owning a UI or approval policy.

Subject: [PATCH 0663/1076] test(media): cover concurrent per-call contexts and
 progress

The concurrent artifact test now drives a per-call inner tool through a
barrier so both invocations run at once, and it asserts that each call
keeps its own context, rewrites both of its artifacts, and reports
progress to its own callback. The test runs with paused time so the
elapsed-progress messages are deterministic.

Subject: [PATCH 0664/1076] test(media): cover retained metadata across
 per-call inner factories

Adds a test asserting that a media artifact tool's name, description,
schema, policy, scope, category, permission level, and effect flags stay
bound to the retained inner even when a per-call factory supplies a
different one, and that filed artifacts still use the retained kind. The
remaining edits are formatting only.

Subject: [PATCH 0665/1076] test(media): cover artifact kind and heartbeat for
 factory calls

Adds a test that runs image and video factory calls through the artifact
tool and asserts the configured kind and heartbeat label survive. The
existing concurrency test is now wrapped in a timeout so a stuck overlap
barrier fails instead of hanging.

Subject: [PATCH 0666/1076] test(media): assert markdown formatting in
 concurrent artifact calls

Reformatted the artifact tool tests to satisfy rustfmt and added an
assertion that each concurrent invocation's markdown output references
its own artifact paths. The new check guards against cross-invocation
context leaking into the formatted result.

Subject: [PATCH 0667/1076] test(media): align artifact tool tests with
 single-artifact output

The inner tool stubs now return a single artifact and the concurrent
stub reports blob-prefixed paths, so the assertions were updated to
match. The factory test now inspects the JSON payload's artifact path
instead of the rendered text.

Subject: [PATCH 0676/1076] style(observability): reformat spans module and
 tests

Reformatted the span exporter and its tests to satisfy rustfmt, and reordered the observability module declarations so the feature-gated spans module sits alphabetically. No behaviour changes.

Subject: [PATCH 0677/1076] feat(observability): add root run id to generic
 spans

Add an optional root_run_id to Span so hosts can export nested runs under a single trace, using it as a fallback trace id and emitting it in span metadata. The OTLP builders now take an explicit scope, and a new test checks that the generic span exporter reproduces the graph exporter's ingestion and OTLP output for a three-step run.

+# harness::observability::spans
+
+This module is the host-neutral input model and Langfuse exporter for mapped
+run, step, span, generation, and event observations. Hosts retain ownership of
+collection, identity, content redaction/capture, and mapping their native events
+into [`Span`](../spans.rs). The exporter owns the stable Langfuse JSON envelope
+and delegates OTLP projection, request sizing, credentials, HTTP status and
+partial-failure handling to the existing observability helpers and
+[`LangfuseClient`](../langfuse/README.md).
+
+## Lifecycle and errors
+
+Export is pull-based: build a batch from the spans currently available and send
+it at the host's chosen boundary. The exporter has no background queue, flush,
+or close lifecycle. Ingestion sends one batch; OTLP sends bounded requests in
+order and stops on the first error. A transport error is returned to the host.
+The existing client reports failed HTTP responses, legacy `207` partial
+failures, and OTLP `partialSuccess.rejectedSpans` through the shared error
+path.
+
+## Shape
+
+`build_ingestion_batch` places one `trace-create` envelope first and preserves
+the caller's span order afterward. Each observation keeps its supplied stable
+id, parent id, timing, status, input/output, usage details, and metadata. Trace
+ids default to `root_run_id`, then `run_id`, on the first span. Hosts should
+pass a root span when they need the full run boundary represented in the
+Langfuse tree.
+
+`build_otlp_requests` projects that same batch with
+`trace_export::ingestion_otlp`; callers choose both the resource service name
+and instrumentation scope. The projection and client preserve Langfuse v4
+parentage, payload, usage, trace attributes, request bounds, and failure
+semantics.

 and open spans

Extend the span ingestion test to assert that a status message on a successful span is emitted without an error level, and that an open span keeps its status message while omitting end time and level.

Replace the match on span status with a boolean check for the error level and read the status message directly, so the message is no longer dropped for non-error spans.

Subject: [PATCH 0686/1076] test(subagent): cover bounded retention of settled
 driver jobs

Replace the old test that asserted every settled job survives with tests for the new retention behaviour: settled driver jobs are pruned across all registry maps, active and awaiting-input jobs survive that pressure, and a waiter still observes the terminal snapshot when pruning races its observation.

Subject: [PATCH 0689/1076] feat(tinyagents-tasks): add trusted terminal
 pruning and managed registration

Adds a `prune_terminal_trusted` method that removes a single terminal entry and deregisters its steering, returning the terminal status when it actually removed the entry. Also adds `register_cooperative_managed`, which skips the automatic soft-cap sweep so adapters can coordinate pruning with sidecar state, with a test covering that live tasks and steering are preserved until completion.

Subject: [PATCH 0690/1076] fix(tinyagents-tasks): pass true for the new task
 handle argument

The task handle constructor gained an extra boolean parameter, so the runtime now supplies true when building the handle to keep the call site compiling and preserve existing behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 0691/1076] feat(subagent): bound terminal job retention with
 waiter-aware pruning

The job registry now enforces a soft cap on retained terminal jobs instead of keeping them forever, pruning unobserved entries on registration and after a waiter consumes a final status. Active waiters pin their job so a terminal snapshot cannot be removed between ownership validation and the watch subscription.

Subject: [PATCH 0692/1076] test(subagent): assert driver job is retained
 before waiter observation

Add an assertion that the driver job for the key is still present before awaiting the waiter, so the pruning race test verifies the job survives until the waiter observes it.

 settling many prestarted jobs

Adds a test that registers many prestarted jobs, marks them running, then settles them all, asserting that terminal retention stays within the soft cap and that the registry maps remain consistent with each other.

Subject: [PATCH 0700/1076] fix(subagent): prune terminal jobs by count and
 after observation

Terminal job pruning now counts only terminal entries against the soft cap
instead of all tasks, so live work no longer blocks cleanup, and waiters pin
their job until they observe the terminal state. The last waiter to drop
triggers pruning, and settle and cancellation paths prune once they release
the controls lock.

Subject: [PATCH 0702/1076] refactor(subagent): simplify driver jobs parameter
 type

The prune helper now takes a plain mutable reference to the driver jobs map instead of a mutex guard, since the caller already holds the lock. This removes an unnecessary guard wrapper from the signature without changing behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 0703/1076] test(subagent): cover retention pin release on
 waiter drop and cancellation

Adds two registry tests: one checks that dropping pending waiters releases
retention pins so terminal jobs stay bounded, and one checks that cancelling
awaiting-input jobs keeps terminal retention bounded. Both also assert the
control and driver-job maps stay in sync with the retained task count.

Subject: [PATCH 0705/1076] docs(subagent): clarify terminal record pruning in
 registry readme

The README now states that settling or directly cancelling a job prunes excess terminal records immediately, and that waiters pin their snapshots until they consume or drop the wait future. This corrects the previous description, which implied pruning only happened on the next registration once the cap was reached.

Subject: [PATCH 0708/1076] docs(subagent): clarify terminal record retention
 in registry

The README now states that the registry retains up to 128 terminal records regardless of observation, with pruning preferring results already consumed by `wait_owned`. It also notes that completed results stay queryable until retention pressure removes them.

Subject: [PATCH 0709/1076] feat(subagent): track terminal settlement order for
 job retention

Replace the terminal_observed flag with a monotonic sequence number assigned when a job settles, so bounded terminal retention can evict the oldest unpinned record deterministically instead of relying on waiter observation.

Subject: [PATCH 0710/1076] refactor(subagent): replace terminal flag with
 sequence counter

The job registry now tracks terminal state with an atomic sequence number instead of a boolean flag, giving waiters a monotonic value to observe rather than a single latch. This makes it possible to distinguish successive terminal transitions without changing the wait guard's drop behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 0711/1076] fix(subagent): evict oldest terminal jobs when
 pruning over cap

Terminal job pruning now counts only unpinned terminal jobs against the soft cap and evicts candidates in the order they reached a terminal state, using a monotonic sequence stamped when a job settles. This replaces the previous unobserved-first ordering so the oldest finished jobs are reclaimed first.

Subject: [PATCH 0712/1076] refactor(subagent): prune oldest terminal records
 and drop terminal_observed flag

Terminal retention now evicts the oldest eligible unpinned records instead of preferring already-consumed results, and the redundant terminal_observed flag is removed from the wait path. A new test covers replay of a recent terminal driver job until the oldest cache entry is evicted.

Subject: [PATCH 0719/1076] test(config): update summarizer payload threshold
 test case

This change refactors the test case for context configuration to use a multi-line structure for the summarizer payload threshold tokens. This improves readability within the test file.

Subject: [PATCH 0720/1076] feat(plan-review): add host seams for plan exit and
 review state

Introduce a PlanExitHost trait so plan exit can delegate parked-review
checks and the switch to Build mode to host-owned stores instead of a
mode lookup alone. Add a PlanReviewHost seam and a generic review store
so hosts can supply interactive-surface, run-mode, and tool-call-id
state without the tools depending on host internals.

Subject: [PATCH 0721/1076] feat(plan_review): add cancel to drop pending
 review requests

Adds a cancel method to the plan review store that removes a pending
request and wakes its waiter through the fail-closed cancelled path, so
hosts can withdraw a review surface without leaving callers blocked. The
newest-request index is cleaned up when the cancelled request held it.

Subject: [PATCH 0722/1076] refactor(plan-exit): require a host and drop the
 mode lookup

PlanExitTool now takes a PlanExitHost directly instead of a separate run-mode
lookup, so the parked-review check and the build-mode switch always come from
the same source. The lookup-only constructor and the PlanExitModeLookup type
are removed, and tests cover the parked-review refusal path.

Subject: [PATCH 0723/1076] fix(plan-review): enable parking_lot dependency for
 plan-review feature

The plan-review feature used parking_lot without declaring it as a
dependency, so builds with only that feature enabled could fail. The
feature now pulls in parking_lot, and the store comparisons and thread
lookup were adjusted to use eq and String::clone for clarity.

Subject: [PATCH 0725/1076] feat(plan_review): gate review tool on interactive
 surface and plan mode

The review tool now consults the host for an interactive surface and the
current run mode before requesting a review, short-circuiting with an
auto-approval or not-applicable result when either check fails. The host
trait gained defaulted accessors for thread id, run mode, and tool call
id, and the request carries the tool call id so parked reviews can be
correlated with the originating call.

Subject: [PATCH 0726/1076] refactor(plan_exit): delegate mode switching to
 host stores

PlanExitTool now takes generic RunModeStore and PlanReviewStore
dependencies instead of a host trait with review and switch methods, so
the tool no longer owns the parked-review check or the mode transition.
The host trait is reduced to resolving a scope and thread id, letting
callers supply their own stores.

Subject: [PATCH 0728/1076] fix(plan-review): evict superseded reviews and
 reject stale decisions

Parking a newer review for the same scope and thread now removes the
superseded entry so its waiter cannot linger, and decide rejects a
request that is no longer the newest for its key. This prevents a stale
review from resolving after it has been replaced. parking_lot is now a
non-optional dependency since the store always needs it.

The test now clones the reviews handle before passing it to the tool so the original Arc remains available for later assertions. This keeps the parked review scenario compiling without changing the behaviour under test.

Subject: [PATCH 0731/1076] docs(host-adoption): update plan exit row to new
 tool API

The host adoption map now points plan_exit.rs at tinyagents_harness_tools::PlanExitTool, which validates the plan, emits the stable marker, refuses a parked review, and switches to Build through the injected RunModeStore. The host seam resolves opaque scope and thread identity, so the row describes the new constructor arguments and the wiring that stays in the host.

+# Plan review
+
+`RequestPlanReviewTool` formats the model-facing review request and preserves
+the established result text. `PlanReviewHost` supplies the interactive
+surface, thread identity, run mode, and tool-call id, then routes an interactive
+request into the host's scope-aware `PlanReviewStore`. A missing surface uses
+the existing non-interactive auto-approval response; calls outside plan mode
+return the not-applicable response.
+
+`PlanReviewStore<S>` treats `S` as an opaque scope key. It keeps a snapshot and
+waiter for each pending request, indexes the newest request per scoped thread,
+and rejects after its ten-minute default TTL. A timed out request is reported
+as expired; a cancelled waiter or withdrawn sender is rejected and reported as
+cancelled. `PlanReviewNotifier` receives requested and terminal decisions so
+the host can publish its product events without putting product policy in the
+generic store.
+
+The store is in-memory because a parked turn cannot resume after process exit.
+Hosts own identity resolution, persistence, and event payload mapping. See
+[`plan_exit`](../plan_exit.rs) and [`run_mode`](../run_mode.rs) for the paired
+mode transition contracts.

Subject: [PATCH 0732/1076] test(plan_review): cover decision, snapshot and
 run-mode paths

Adds tests for approving and revising parked reviews, rejecting decisions on unknown requests, and replaying a parked snapshot's routing, call id and expiry. Also covers the build-mode path returning not applicable without parking, and updates the plan-mode allowlist to the current goal tool names.

Subject: [PATCH 0734/1076] test(plan_review): synchronize store tests on
 notifier signal

Replace yield_now with a Notify-based signal in the Events test double so tests wait for the requested callback instead of relying on scheduler timing. This removes flakiness in the parked review tests.

Replace the yield_now-based wait with a Notify the test notifier fires
when a review is requested, so the test observes the parked review
deterministically instead of relying on scheduler timing.

Subject: [PATCH 0736/1076] refactor(plan-exit): decouple plan exit from
 concrete review store

PlanExitTool now depends on a new ParkedPlanReviewLookup trait instead of
the concrete PlanReviewStore, so hosts can supply their own pending-review
lookup. PlanReviewStore implements the trait to preserve existing behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 0739/1076] feat(plan_review): add InteractiveReviewSurface
 marker type

Replace the `Option<()>` return of `PlanReviewHost::interactive_surface`
with a dedicated `InteractiveReviewSurface` marker so hosts signal an
interactive review path through a named type instead of a unit value.

 to wildcard

The interactive surface check bound its unit result to `()`, which trips
clippy's `let_unit_value` lint. Binding to `_` keeps the same control flow
while silencing the warning.

Adds a test that drives the request-plan-review tool against a real
PlanReviewStore, asserting the call parks until a decision arrives and
that the parked review carries the expected thread, client and tool call
identifiers. It also verifies the notifier receives the decision and the
parked review is cleared afterwards.

Subject: [PATCH 0748/1076] feat(plan_review): expose resolution type and
 dedupe mode change events

Moved PlanReviewResolution into a public types module so hosts can
reference it directly. Run mode updates now hold a lock and only notify
listeners when the mode actually changes, avoiding redundant events.

Subject: [PATCH 0749/1076] fix(run-mode): avoid creating handles for default
 build mode

Setting a thread to build mode no longer inserts a new handle when none
exists, since build is already the default. This keeps the store from
accumulating redundant entries and only reports a change when the mode
actually differs.

Adds tests asserting that an empty or whitespace-only plan is rejected,
that exiting without context returns the plan marker while leaving the
run mode and change set untouched, and that the tool keeps its name and
permission level.

Subject: [PATCH 0756/1076] chore(harness): remove handoff and retriever
 modules

The progressive-disclosure handoff cache and the provider-neutral retriever contracts are dropped from the harness, along with their tests and documentation. Both were host utilities that the agent loop never invoked on its own, so removing them leaves the loop path unchanged.

-//! Progressive-disclosure handoff cache for oversized tool results.
-//!
-//! Sub-agents regularly call tools
-//! that return megabyte-scale payloads — `GMAIL_LIST_MESSAGES`,
-//! `NOTION_GET_PAGE`, `GOOGLEDRIVE_LIST_FILES`. The default behaviour pushes
-//! that raw blob into the sub-agent's history as a tool-result message, and
-//! the NEXT iteration ships the bloated history back to the provider where
-//! it hits the model's context-length ceiling.
-//!
-//! Progressive disclosure fixes this: when a tool returns too much data we
-//! stash the full payload here, replace it in history with a short
-//! placeholder (size + preview + `result_id` + how to query it), and expose
-//! an extraction tool — host-side, since a tool is host vocabulary — that the
-//! sub-agent can call with a targeted query. The extractor only runs when
-//! the sub-agent actually asks for a narrower view.
-//!
-//! This module owns:
-//! * the thresholds and limits (token cut-off, preview size, max entries);
-//! * the [`ResultHandoffCache`] store itself (FIFO-evicting, `Arc`-shared);
-//! * the [`build_handoff_placeholder`] renderer used when rewriting tool
-//!   results into history.

-//! # Not on the agent loop path (M-10)

-//! This is a host utility, not something [`crate::agent_loop`] calls on its
-//! own: nothing in the built-in loop invokes [`apply_handoff`] or registers
-//! the extraction tool it references. A host wires this in itself — calling
-//! `apply_handoff` on each tool result before it is appended to history, and

-//! that reads from the same [`ResultHandoffCache`].

-# harness::retriever
-
-Provider-neutral retrieval contracts used by agent context composition.
-
-## Why this exists
-
-The harness does not construct embedding providers, own credentials, or
-decide memory/source scope — those are host concerns, typically backed
-directly by `tinyinference_embeddings` or a host memory adapter. What the
-harness needs is a narrow, stable seam: given a query, get back ranked
-documents, and render them into a prompt section. This module is exactly that
-seam and nothing more.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- [`Retriever`] — the provider- and storage-neutral async trait. A single
-  method, `retrieve(RetrievalRequest) -> Result<Vec<RetrievedDocument>>`,
-  returning at most `request.limit` documents in descending relevance order.
-- [`RetrievalRequest`] — query text, result limit, opaque caller metadata, and
-  a [`crate::CancellationToken`] for cooperative cancellation of expensive
-  retrieval work.
-- [`RetrievedDocument`] — one ranked result: id, model-facing content, score,
-  and source metadata (for citations / host projection).
-- [`compose_retrieval_context`] — the one entry point most callers need: drives
-  a `Retriever` and renders the result as a [`crate::prompt::PromptSection`]
-  ready to insert into an agent's composed prompt.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `mod.rs` | `compose_retrieval_context`, the sole free function tying the trait to prompt composition. |
-| `types.rs` | `RetrievalRequest`, `RetrievedDocument`, and the `Retriever` trait. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | A recording fake `Retriever` exercising cancellation, ordering, and metadata round-tripping. |
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- Authorization and source scope are the host's responsibility *before* a
-  `RetrievalRequest` is constructed — the trait itself performs no filtering.
-- `compose_retrieval_context` preserves whatever order the `Retriever`
-  returns; it does not re-rank or deduplicate.
-- Cancellation is cooperative: an implementation should check
-  `RetrievalRequest::cancellation` and return
-  [`crate::TinyAgentsError::Cancelled`] promptly rather than ignoring it.

-//! Capability bundles (gap G3, `docs/runtime-comparison/plan.md`):
-//! instructions, toolset, middleware, model defaults, exposure, and
-//! `defer_loading` composed as one named unit instead of wired separately.
-//!
-//! `docs/runtime-comparison/pydantic-ai.md` §4 "Capabilities as the unit of
-//! composition" is the design source: Pydantic AI's v2 `AbstractCapability` is
-//! a bigger idea than middleware alone — it is what a "skill" or "plugin" is.
-//! [`Capability`] is that bundle for TinyAgents,
-//! [`crate::runtime::AgentHarness::with_capability`] is the harness-side
-//! consumer, and [`CapabilityToolSet`]/[`LoadCapabilityTool`] implement the
-//! `defer_loading` / `load_capability` on-demand loading mechanic.
-//!
-//! # Where this type lives, and why
-//!
-//! `Capability<State, Ctx>` composes [`crate::tool::toolset::ToolSet<State,
-//! Ctx>`] and [`crate::middleware::Middleware<State, Ctx>`] trait objects, both
-//! native to this crate. It cannot live in `tinyagents-definition` (the
-//! lower crate both `tinyagents-harness` and `tinyagents-registry` already
-//! depend on): `tinyagents-definition` has zero dependency on
-//! `tinyagents-harness` by design — that is what keeps the dependency graph
-//! acyclic — so a definition-crate `Capability` could not name a `ToolSet` or
-//! `Middleware` type without creating one. `tinyagents-registry` *does*
-//! already depend on `tinyagents-harness`, so it can (and does) reference this
-//! type — see `tinyagents_registry::CapabilityRegistry::register_capability`
-//! — but `CapabilityRegistry<State>` itself carries no `Ctx` type parameter
-//! (none of its other stored kinds — models, tools, graphs, agents — need
-//! one either, since they are all `Ctx`-free harness/tinytools types), so
-//! registry storage for this specific, `Ctx`-generic bundle goes through
-//! type-erased `Box<dyn Any>` storage instead of adding a `Ctx` parameter to
-//! the whole registry for one feature. See that method's doc comment for the
-//! erasure mechanics.

-//!
-//! [`Capability`] is the bundle: instructions + a composable
-//! [`crate::tool::toolset::ToolSet`] + middleware + model-request defaults +
-//! [`ToolExposure`] + `defer_loading`, mirroring Pydantic AI's
-//! `AbstractCapability`. [`CapabilityToolSet`] is the [`ToolSet`] adaptor that

-//! [`crate::runtime::AgentHarness::with_capability`] installs one — and
-//! [`LoadCapabilityTool`] is the synthetic tool it auto-registers whenever any

-//! capability's tools and instructions into scope mid-run (Pydantic AI's
-//! `load_capability`).

Subject: [PATCH 0762/1076] docs: update documentation regarding capability
 removal

This commit updates several documentation files to reflect the removal of the capability bundle concept from the harness. The registry now only stores capability data, and the harness no longer handles on-demand capability loading.

Subject: [PATCH 0763/1076] refactor(toolset): remove exposure override from
 override tool

The explicit exposure override field and associated methods have been removed from `OverrideTool`. This simplifies the structure by always delegating exposure to the inner tool.

Subject: [PATCH 0766/1076] docs(harness): update workspace provider
 description

The README is updated to clarify that TinyAgents only owns the interface and the trivial single-shared-root provider, removing mention of the git-worktree-backed implementation.

Subject: [PATCH 0767/1076] chore(workspace): remove git-worktree isolation
 provider

The git-worktree backed workspace isolation module and its tests have been
deleted, along with the README section documenting it. The provider is no
longer part of the workspace isolation surface.

-    `with_policy_id_prefix`, and `with_lifecycle_hook`.
-  - [`GitWorktreeLifecycleHook`] — host callbacks after preparation and
-    cleanup, allowing host-specific audit events without duplicating git
-    lifecycle behavior.
-  - [`GitWorktreeBaseRef`] — which ref a new worktree branches from (`Head` or
-    `Fresh`, i.e. the repo's default branch).
-  - [`GitWorktreeStatus`] — a snapshot (`path`, `branch`, `is_dirty`,
-    `changed_files`) of one worktree's state.
-  - [`GitWorktreeError`] — errors from the worktree manager (`NotAGitRepo`,
-    `DirtyRefused`, `GitFailed`, `Io`).
-  - Standalone functions usable without the `WorkspaceIsolation` trait:
-    `create_git_worktree`, `list_git_worktrees`, `git_worktree_status`,
-    `git_worktree_diff_summary`, `remove_git_worktree`,
-    `detect_worktree_overlaps` (finds files touched by more than one sibling
-    worker — useful for merge-conflict-avoidance heuristics).
-  - `GIT_WORKTREE_SUBDIR` — the fixed subdirectory (`.claude/worktrees`)
-    worktrees are created under.

 harness documentation

Adjusted the description for R-6 in the code review harness documentation to more accurately reflect the scope of the proposed move. This clarifies that only `run_queue`, `no_progress`, and `artifacts` are being considered for extraction.

Subject: [PATCH 0770/1076] feat(harness): add model resolver interface and
 implementation

Introduces the ModelResolver trait to decouple model resolution logic from the core harness, allowing for more flexible model sourcing. This change adds methods for named resolution and synchronous previewing to the trait and implements them for fixed and prebuilt resolvers.

Subject: [PATCH 0771/1076] refactor(runtime): replace model registry with
 model resolver

The model registry has been replaced with a model resolver in the agent harness. This change updates how models are managed, allowing the harness to use a resolver for direct SDK turns while preserving invocation-local resolvers for hosted calls.

Subject: [PATCH 0775/1076] refactor(agent_loop): improve model resolution
 logic

The agent loop now attempts to resolve the model locally before falling back to the host model. This introduces caching for locally resolved models to improve performance and handles model not found errors gracefully.

Subject: [PATCH 0778/1076] refactor(agent_loop): update model eligibility
 checks and switch logic

This refactoring updates how model eligibility is checked across the agent loop components. It introduces a dedicated `model_is_eligible` function and updates model switching logic to use this new check, improving correctness when determining if a model meets request requirements.

Subject: [PATCH 0779/1076] refactor(agent_loop,summarization): update model
 resolution logic

The model resolution in `model_call.rs` is updated to use a dedicated model resolver if available, improving how request overrides are handled. Additionally, `payload_summarizer.rs` is updated to use a fixed model resolver instead of registering and setting a default model.

Subject: [PATCH 0780/1076] feat(agent_loop): add model eligibility check to
 model switch

This introduces a check to determine if a model is eligible before switching, which helps prevent unnecessary state changes in the agent loop.

Subject: [PATCH 0782/1076] test(runtime): update harness initialization tests

The test case for checking the initial state of the harness has been updated to use `model_resolver` instead of `models().default_name()` for checking the absence of a default model. Additionally, a test case that previously verified default model registration has been removed as it was redundant.

Subject: [PATCH 0783/1076] chore(harness): remove model_registry module

The runtime-owned model registry and its selection policy have been
deleted, along with its re-exports from the crate root. The runtime now
relies on the host-supplied model resolver, so the registry's default
handling and resolution precedence are no longer needed.

-# harness::model_registry
-
-Runtime-owned executable model registry and selection policy.
-
-## Why this exists
-
-Provider-neutral inference types and calls live in `tinyinference`; this
-module owns only the harness-side concerns: registering executable models
-under runtime names, and deterministically picking one for a given call.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- [`ModelRegistry<State>`] (`types.rs` + `mod.rs`) — name-keyed registry of
-  `Arc<dyn ChatModel<State>>` handles plus one designated default (the first
-  model registered, unless overridden with `set_default`). `register`,
-  `get`, `default_model`, `default_name`, `names` are the basic accessors;
-  `resolve`/`resolve_request` are the selection entry points.
-- [`ModelSelection`] (`types.rs`) — the input policy for one resolution:
-  explicit override, reusable previous selection, priority-ordered runtime
-  hints, agent-level default, and a capability requirement, each field
-  corresponding to one precedence tier `resolve` walks.
-- [`ResolvedModelBinding<State>`] (`types.rs`) — the resolution result: the
-  executable `model` handle plus `resolved`
-  (`tinyinference_llm::model::ResolvedModel`) metadata recording which name
-  and source won.
-- [`model_eligible`] (`mod.rs`, crate-private) — the shared eligibility check
-  every candidate in `resolve` passes through: capability satisfaction plus,
-  unless `allow_retired` is set, usability.
-
-## Files
-
-| File       | Role                                                              |
-| ---------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `types.rs` | `ModelSelection`, `ModelRegistry`, `ResolvedModelBinding` definitions (plus their `Debug` impls). |
-| `mod.rs`   | `ModelRegistry` methods, the `resolve` selection algorithm, `model_eligible`/`model_satisfies`/`binding` helpers. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests for registration, default handling, and each resolution precedence tier. |
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- `resolve`'s precedence order is a contract, not an implementation detail:
-  explicit request override → reusable previous selection → priority-sorted
-  hints → agent default → registry-wide default. A source that names an
-  unregistered or ineligible model is skipped, not treated as a hard failure
-  — resolution only returns `None` once every tier is exhausted. Any change
-  to this order is a behavior change, not a docs change.
-- Hint ordering is a **stable** sort: equal-priority hints keep the caller's
-  original order rather than an arbitrary one. Preserve that stability if the
-  sort is ever touched.
-- `allow_retired` only ever *widens* eligibility (letting a retired model be
-  selected); it must never be used to route fresh, non-pinned selections to a
-  retired model — that path exists specifically for finishing an in-flight
-  conversation already pinned to one.
-- `ModelRegistry::register` sets the default implicitly on the *first*
-  registration only; subsequent registrations never change it unless
-  `set_default` is called explicitly. A test or caller relying on
-  registration order to pick the default should register the intended
-  default first.

Subject: [PATCH 0785/1076] chore(tests): use crate-relative paths for
 FixedModelResolver

Test files across the harness now reference FixedModelResolver through the
crate-relative `crate::host` path instead of the absolute
`tinyagents_harness::host` path. This keeps the tests consistent with the
rest of the crate's internal imports and avoids depending on the crate's
own external name.

Subject: [PATCH 0786/1076] refactor(runtime): add model lifetime parameter to
 agent harness

The agent harness now accepts a model lifetime parameter to correctly constrain the model resolver. This ensures that the model resolver lives at least as long as the model it resolves for.

Subject: [PATCH 0787/1076] refactor(runtime): introduce fixed model support in
 agent harness

This change updates the agent harness to allow supplying a fixed model directly, which is useful when the state type prevents the use of the model resolver trait object. This is implemented across several files to correctly handle model resolution logic when a fixed model is present instead of relying solely on the resolver.

This change updates several test functions to use PrebuiltModelResolver instead of multiple calls to FixedModelResolver. This refactoring centralizes model configuration into a single resolver instance, which better reflects how model switching is intended to work.

Subject: [PATCH 0791/1076] refactor(agent_loop,host): introduce selected_name
 in model resolution

This change adds a `selected_name` method to the `ModelResolver` trait and implements it across various resolver types. This allows the agent harness to track and use a specific model name during resolution, which aids in observability and fallback logic when the initial model choice is ineligible.

Subject: [PATCH 0792/1076] refactor(agent_loop): improve model resolution
 logic

The model resolution logic has been updated to use a local resolution first before attempting to use the model resolver. This change ensures that the request is resolved locally before checking the configured model resolver, leading to more predictable behavior.

Subject: [PATCH 0794/1076] test(agent_loop): update model resolver setup for
 failover tests

This refactors the model resolver setup in several failover tests to use PrebuiltModelResolver instead of multiple FixedModelResolver calls. This change centralizes the configuration of primary and backup models for better test structure.

 assertions

This change updates several test cases to correctly cast backup and sibling models to Arc<dyn ChatModel<()>> when initializing the model resolver. This ensures type compatibility within the harness setup for failover testing.

Subject: [PATCH 0796/1076] fix(agent_loop): improve model eligibility error
 handling

The error returned when a model is not eligible for a call is updated to provide the name of the requested model instead of a generic message. This makes debugging easier by clearly indicating which model caused the eligibility failure.

Subject: [PATCH 0797/1076] refactor(agent_loop): update model resolver usage
 in tests

This change updates several tests to use PrebuiltModelResolver instead of multiple FixedModelResolver calls. This refactoring standardizes how model resolvers are configured across the harness tests, making the setup cleaner and more consistent.

Subject: [PATCH 0799/1076] refactor(capability): remove model registry
 conversion methods

The methods for converting the capability registry to a model registry have been removed as they are no longer needed. This simplifies the capability module by removing logic related to deterministic model ordering for harness integration.

 resolver

The model registration in the harness is updated to use a dedicated model resolver instead of directly setting a default model. This change standardizes how models are managed and resolved within the agent harness.

Subject: [PATCH 0801/1076] refactor(tests): simplify model registry usage in
 e2e tests

The explicit setup and use of `ModelRegistry` in the integration test has been removed. This simplifies the test by relying directly on the request structure to assert model resolution behavior.

 assertions

This change simplifies the assertions in the e2e test by directly checking for model existence on the registry instead of converting to and asserting on a model registry object. This makes the test cleaner while maintaining the same verification logic.

Subject: [PATCH 0804/1076] refactor(registry): remove model order tracking
 from capability registry

The explicit tracking of model registration order has been removed from the capability registry. This simplifies the registry by removing the `model_order` vector, as model ordering is now handled differently or is no longer required for core registry functionality.

Subject: [PATCH 0805/1076] refactor(runtime): introduce dedicated model
 resolution methods

This refactors the model resolution logic in both the agent loop and the harness implementation. It replaces direct calls to `resolve_request` with new methods, `resolve_model_for_request` and `preview_model_profile_for_request`, to better separate synchronous profile preview from asynchronous model binding.

Subject: [PATCH 0806/1076] refactor(runtime): adjust model access in agent
 loop

This change updates how the model is accessed within the agent loop runtime. It replaces direct access to `binding.model` with `binding.1` for consistency and correctness in model resolution.

The overlap detection logic in collect.rs has been updated to use a BTreeMap for more efficient tracking of file overlaps across different workers. This change replaces the previous direct call to detect worktree overlaps.

 harness tests

This change updates how model hints are handled in integration tests. Instead of pushing a model hint, the middleware now directly sets the model name on the request when JSON schema is required, which aligns with the expected behavior for model selection.

Subject: [PATCH 0811/1076] refactor(tests): update model resolver setup in
 integration tests

The test cases in `wave2_cache_loop.rs` are updated to use `PrebuiltModelResolver` instead of multiple `FixedModelResolver` calls. This change consolidates the model configuration into a single resolver instance, making the test setup cleaner while maintaining the intended fallback behavior.

Subject: [PATCH 0812/1076] test(host): add named lookup test for model
 resolver

Adds a new test case to verify that the prebuilt model resolver correctly handles named lookups and rejects unregistered names. This improves confidence in the model resolution logic.
docs(runtime): update agent harness description
Updates the README to more accurately reflect that AgentHarness now owns the model resolver instead of the model registry. This clarifies the responsibilities of the harness object.

Subject: [PATCH 0813/1076] refactor(agent_loop): pass context to model
 resolution functions

This change updates several model resolution functions across the harness to explicitly pass the run context. This ensures that model resolution logic has access to necessary runtime information, such as run IDs, when determining model bindings.

Subject: [PATCH 0814/1076] refactor(agent_loop): improve model resolution
 error handling

This change updates model resolution logic across several components to explicitly handle specific errors like cancellation or timeouts during model binding and switching. This makes the agent loop more robust when external model calls fail unexpectedly.

Subject: [PATCH 0815/1076] refactor(harness): adjust module visibility and
 context usage

This change makes the `model_call` module public within the crate and updates the `resolve_model_for_request` function signature to use `crate::context::RunContext` instead of `crate::runtime::RunContext`. This aligns the context usage across the harness components.

Subject: [PATCH 0820/1076] refactor(harness): update model resolution logic

The agent harness now attempts to resolve local models before falling back to previewing the model profile. This change improves how model resolution is handled within the agent loop. Additionally, the parallel collection logic now uses BTreeSet for tracking overlapping workers.

Subject: [PATCH 0821/1076] refactor(tests): update model resolver usage in
 tests

This change updates several tests to use `PrebuiltModelResolver` instead of multiple `FixedModelResolver` calls when setting up model resolution. This standardizes how models and fallbacks are configured across the harness tests.

Subject: [PATCH 0823/1076] feat(agent_loop): add cached candidate to model
 switch context

This introduces a cached candidate field to the AgentHarness context. This allows the agent loop to reuse a previously resolved model if available, potentially improving performance during model switching.

Subject: [PATCH 0825/1076] refactor(agent_loop): remove preview_model_profile

The `preview_model_profile` function was removed from `AgentHarness` as its functionality is now handled elsewhere or is no longer necessary for the agent loop's operation. This cleans up the model resolution logic.

 assertions

This change updates type assertions in tests to correctly cast model implementations to `Arc<dyn ChatModel<()>>`. This ensures that the test setup accurately reflects the expected trait object usage within the agent loop components.

Subject: [PATCH 0827/1076] refactor(agent_loop): simplify model resolution
 logic

The logic for resolving local models within the agent loop has been simplified. Previously, it attempted to cache and return a profile upon successful resolution, but this is now streamlined to simply return Ok(None) when a local model is not found or resolvable in this branch.

This updates the agent loop to attempt resolving a local model when a remote one is not found. This allows the harness to use locally available models if the requested one is not found remotely.

Subject: [PATCH 0829/1076] refactor(agent_loop): simplify model switch call

The `apply_steered_model_switch` function is updated to pass `None` for the `switch_candidate` argument in two locations within the agent loop. This simplifies the logic when no specific model switch candidate is present.

Subject: [PATCH 0830/1076] fix(agent_loop): pass switch_candidate to model
 switch function

The model switch logic now correctly passes the `switch_candidate` when applying a steered model switch. This ensures that the switch candidate is considered during the model transition process.

Subject: [PATCH 0831/1076] test(agent_loop): add model resolver setup for
 model switching tests

This updates a test case to use a more explicit model resolver setup, allowing for testing scenarios where the switch mechanism overrides a model chosen by middleware. This improves the fidelity of the model switching behavior tests.

 resolution

The logic for resolving the host model when no cached binding exists has been simplified. This removes redundant matching when calling resolve_host_model.

Subject: [PATCH 0834/1076] docs(capability): clarify capability metadata
 recording behavior

Updates the documentation to clarify the difference between `record_meta` and the new metadata recording methods. This explains that the latter overwrites existing metadata instead of just filling it in on first registration.

Subject: [PATCH 0836/1076] refactor(subagent/detached): update status watcher
 documentation

The documentation for `spawn_status_watcher` was updated to use backticks for the constant name `STATUS_WRITE_ATTEMPTS` for consistency with other code examples.

Subject: [PATCH 0840/1076] refactor(steering): improve live handle resolution
 logic

Introduces `live_handle_or_fallback` to centralize the logic for determining if a steering handle is available for a task. This refactoring cleans up the `steer_detached` function and improves the handling of task states during steering attempts.

Subject: [PATCH 0843/1076] test(steering): reformat long assertions to satisfy
 line width

Wrapped two assert_eq! calls in the steering tests so their message
arguments sit on separate lines, keeping the file within the formatter's
line width limit. No test behaviour changed.

Subject: [PATCH 0845/1076] chore(deps): drop stale tinytools 0.5.0 lockfile
 entries

The lockfile no longer pins tinytools and tinytools-agent at 0.5.0, so the
duplicate 0.5.0 package blocks are gone and every dependent now resolves to the
single 0.6.0 entry. This removes the version-qualified references that only
existed to disambiguate the two versions.

Subject: [PATCH 0847/1076] feat(skills): expose pack registry handle on tools

This introduces the ability to retrieve a `PackRegistryHandle` from tools that implement `UseSkillTool`. This allows tools to expose registration metadata, which is now stored within `ToolCallBinding` and accessible via a new helper function.

Subject: [PATCH 0851/1076] feat(orchestration): add root run lineage tracking
 to subagent jobs

This introduces tracking for root and parent run IDs across subagent jobs and related components. This allows for more precise lineage validation when executing driver tools and enables new settlement logic to correctly scope job tracking to a specific root run.

Subject: [PATCH 0852/1076] feat(subagent): add root run id to job link

This introduces the root run ID to the JobLink structure when invoking a subagent. This allows for better lineage tracking across the entire orchestration process.

Subject: [PATCH 0853/1076] refactor(subagent): update job lineage tracking

This change refactors how job lineage is tracked across subagent invocations by replacing the reliance on a single root run ID with explicit parent and child run IDs. This allows for more accurate tracking of job ancestry, especially when dealing with resumed or nested invocations. The README is updated to reflect the new settlement behavior.

+Hosts that need to settle a completed top-level run can call
+`SubAgentJobRegistry::settle_root_run_descendants`. Driver jobs retain the
+native root `RunId` from their validated `SubagentTaskKey`; ordinary
+`SubAgentTool` jobs retain it from the live parent context. Settlement filters
+by both this root identity and the caller's existing job owner, then waits for
+all matching jobs to become terminal and returns their final snapshots,
+including failures and cancellations. The call has one absolute deadline and
+observes caller cancellation. A root is not itself a registry job, so hosts
+must call it after that root run can no longer admit direct children. Paused
+`AwaitingInput` jobs remain nonterminal and keep settlement open.
+
+Durable continuations keep their original `SubagentTaskKey` and therefore
+remain associated with its original root identity even when executed with a
+fresh run context. Hosts should use the same root scope when settling that
+durable lifecycle.

 The durable lifecycle surface coordinates a host-resolved subagent lifecycle
 without making product-policy decisions. Its dependency direction is:

 Hosts that need to settle a completed top-level run can call
 `SubAgentJobRegistry::settle_root_run_descendants`. Driver jobs retain the
-native root `RunId` from their validated `SubagentTaskKey`; ordinary
-`SubAgentTool` jobs retain it from the live parent context. Settlement filters
-by both this root identity and the caller's existing job owner, then waits for
-all matching jobs to become terminal and returns their final snapshots,
-including failures and cancellations. The call has one absolute deadline and
-observes caller cancellation. A root is not itself a registry job, so hosts
-must call it after that root run can no longer admit direct children. Paused
-`AwaitingInput` jobs remain nonterminal and keep settlement open.
-
-Durable continuations keep their original `SubagentTaskKey` and therefore
-remain associated with its original root identity even when executed with a

+native parent-to-child-attempt edges. `DriverSubAgentTool` records the actual
+caller and child context run ids; retries and durable continuations append new
+edges while preserving earlier attempts. Settlement traverses only edges
+reachable from the requested run and filters each job by the caller's existing
+owner. It waits for every reachable job to become terminal and returns final
+snapshots, including failures and cancellations. The call has one absolute
+deadline and observes caller cancellation. A root is not itself a registry
+job, so hosts must call it after that root can no longer admit direct children.

+The legacy `register_driver_job` API can recover a historical parent run from

+`register_driver_job_with_lineage` when both live run contexts are available;

 The durable lifecycle surface coordinates a host-resolved subagent lifecycle
 without making product-policy decisions. Its dependency direction is:

Subject: [PATCH 0857/1076] fix(subagent): allow mutable access to job controls

This change updates `set_attempt_run_id` to obtain a mutable reference to the job control, which is necessary to correctly update the lineage information. This also updates related tests to accommodate the new structure.

Subject: [PATCH 0858/1076] test(subagent): improve job settlement assertions
 and registration

This updates tests to use sorted vectors when comparing job IDs in settlement checks, ensuring order independence. It also refactors job registration in one test to use the more detailed `register_driver_job_with_lineage` method.

 run_reserved

This updates the subagent driver to accept an `on_attempt` callback when running a reserved task. This allows for custom logic to be executed whenever a task attempt is made.

Subject: [PATCH 0866/1076] test(subagents): add test for planner replacement
 context

Adds a new test case to verify that when a `ReplacingPlanner` is used, the resulting job correctly records the actual run context for descendant settlement.

Subject: [PATCH 0867/1076] refactor(subagent): clean up job registration and
 state updates

This change refactors several areas related to job registration and state management across the subagent components. It standardizes how job lineage is created and ensures consistent incrementing of change counters in the job registry.

 executor tests

Introduces `ReplacingRetryPlanner` and `RetryThenNestedExecutor` to support retry logic within the planner and executor, respectively. This allows testing complex execution flows involving retries and nested subagent spawning.

Subject: [PATCH 0876/1076] test(subagents): update retry parent creation in
 planner

This change modifies how the retry parent context is created within the `ReplacingRetryPlanner` implementation. It now explicitly creates a child context for the retry template, ensuring proper context isolation for retry logic.

Subject: [PATCH 0879/1076] test(subagent): add tests for root settlement
 behavior

Adds several new unit tests to verify how root settlement handles various scenarios such as unlinked jobs, deadline propagation across lifecycle wakes, and cancellation while blocked. These tests ensure the job registry behaves correctly under different operational conditions.

Subject: [PATCH 0880/1076] test(invocation): improve assertion formatting in
 tests

This change refactors several assertions within the test module to use more consistent and readable formatting, primarily by breaking long assertion chains across multiple lines. This improves the visual clarity of the test cases without altering their behavior.

This introduces `JobWaitGuard` to track and wait for all descendant driver jobs during the settlement process. This ensures that the agent waits for all related jobs to complete before proceeding with settlement logic.

Subject: [PATCH 0883/1076] test(invocation): simplify settlement test logic

Refactors several tests in `mod_registry_tests.rs` to use `tokio::select!` and pin the settlement future directly, removing unnecessary `tokio::spawn` blocks and manual polling loops. This simplifies the asynchronous test structure while maintaining the original test behavior.

Adds two new integration tests to verify how root lease retention behaves under different scenarios. These tests ensure that leases correctly preserve parent and grandchild jobs before settlement, and that overlapping leases handle history and independent job pinning correctly.

Subject: [PATCH 0889/1076] refactor(subagent): update job control and root
 lease handling

This change refactors how job control and root leases are managed within the subagent invocation logic. It introduces explicit locking order documentation and updates the `JobControl` structure to include an `owner` field, while also removing the `root_run_id` from `RootLeaseRecord` as it is no longer needed for tracking.

Subject: [PATCH 0892/1076] feat(subagent): expose root run descendant lease

This introduces `RootRunDescendantLease` and refactors the settlement logic to include an inner implementation. This allows for more granular control over how descendants are settled, especially concerning registry pruning.

Subject: [PATCH 0893/1076] refactor(subagent): update job registry lock
 ordering and tests

This change updates the internal lock ordering within SubAgentJobRegistry to include root_leases between driver_jobs and controls. It also adds a new test case to verify that a cancelled root lease correctly releases history retention.

Subject: [PATCH 0895/1076] refactor(subagent): refine job and lease settlement
 logic

This change updates job registry checks to verify the owner before proceeding with job operations, and refines the lease settlement documentation. It also adjusts how controls are accessed during settlement to improve locking behavior.

Subject: [PATCH 0899/1076] test(subagent): add lease retention to job
 settlement in tests

This change updates the test case for resumed jobs to explicitly retain the root lease before settling the jobs. This ensures that the test accurately reflects the behavior of job management when dealing with root descendants.

Subject: [PATCH 0900/1076] docs(subagent): update settlement documentation

The documentation for subagent settlement has been updated to introduce a new lease-based mechanism for retaining root run descendants. This change clarifies the usage of `retain_root_run_descendants` and `RootRunDescendantLease::settle`, while also noting that the older `settle_root_run_descendants` method remains for specific use cases.

+Hosts that need complete results from one top-level run should acquire

+admitting child jobs. After the root turn returns and can no longer admit
+direct children, call `RootRunDescendantLease::settle` with one absolute

+ancestors and descendants available across terminal-retention pressure while
+the subtree is active, then releases its pins on success, timeout,

Subject: [PATCH 0906/1076] docs(tinyagents-runtime): document nested sub-agent
 spawn admission

The README now explains that sub-agent turns are leaf turns by default and
that hosts must opt in via ToolAdmission::nested_spawn_depth, noting the
runtime's allowlist and depth-ceiling checks and the host's remaining
responsibility. The re-export list and a test assertion were reformatted
without behaviour changes.

+Sub-agent turns are leaf turns by default: registration refuses spawn tools

Subject: [PATCH 0907/1076] docs(tinyagents-runtime): clarify nested spawn tool
 admission rules

Update the module and field documentation to describe that spawn and
delegate tools are withheld from sub-agent runs by default rather than
never handed out, and that a host may grant bounded nested spawning for a
turn. The new wording also notes that granted tools must still pass the
ordinary allowlist and that the host enforces the depth ceiling when a
child executes.

Subject: [PATCH 0908/1076] test(steering): cover terminal child fallback
 routing

Split the terminal-child case into its own test that asserts a finished
child routes through the fallback with thread and agent metadata while
leaving the stale handle undrained. The previous assertions mixed this
scenario with the unknown, unowned, and terminal rejection checks, which
made the fallback behaviour hard to see.

Rename two steering tests so their names describe what they actually assert, and adjust the terminal transition test to expect a fallback selection instead of an unknown error. The unused sender binding is prefixed with an underscore to silence the warning.

Terminal tasks with retained metadata are no longer rejected as unknown; they now fall through to the host fallback like tasks without a live steering handle. This makes steering idempotent for finished tasks and updates the docs to match.

SubAgentBudget, SubAgentOutput and SubAgentPolicy now live in
tinyagents-orchestration, and tinyagents-graph re-exports them so existing
call sites keep working. The policy logic moved with the types, letting the
orchestration layer own subagent policy without depending on the graph crate.

Subject: [PATCH 0913/1076] refactor(subagent): trim invocation types to
 driver-backed job definitions

The invocation types module now only declares the shared state and
registries used by driver-backed asynchronous subagent jobs, with the

-//! Type definitions for first-class sub-agents.
-//!
-//! A [`SubAgent`] wraps an [`AgentHarness`] so it can be invoked as a *child
-//! run*: a fully independent agent loop that runs one level deeper in the
-//! recursion tree than its caller. [`SubAgentTool`] adapts a sub-agent into a
-//! typed [`tinyagents_harness::tool::ToolDispatch`] so a parent agent can call another agent
-//! through its live run context — the key agent-calling-agent compositional
-//! pattern.
-//!
-//! All public items are re-exported through [`super`] so callers import from
-//! `tinyagents_orchestration::subagent` directly. Implementations and tests live in the
-//! sibling `mod.rs` and its `*_tests.rs` files.
+//! Type definitions for driver-backed asynchronous subagent jobs.

Subject: [PATCH 0914/1076] refactor(subagent): simplify job registration to
 driver-backed jobs

Job creation now takes the parent run and thread identifiers directly
instead of a JobLink, and the unused inline creation helpers were removed
so only driver-backed jobs remain. The settle guard was renamed to
JobSettleGuard to reflect that it is no longer specific to inline jobs.

Subject: [PATCH 0915/1076] refactor(subagents): drop the mode argument from
 the driver tool

The driver subagent tool no longer accepts a mode parameter, so callers
can no longer force inline execution and the delivery target is always
consulted. The inline job guard was renamed to JobSettleGuard to match
its broader role.

Subject: [PATCH 0916/1076] refactor(subagent): remove multi-target delegation
 tool

The multi-target delegation adapter and its supporting policy, admission, and
inline test modules were removed from the subagent invocation layer. The
delegation flow is now handled elsewhere, so these host-owned tool
implementations and their tests are no longer needed.

-//! First-class sub-agents with recursion-depth tracking.
+//! Driver-backed asynchronous subagent jobs and their lifecycle controls.
 //!
-//! This is the harness's flagship recursion surface: it lets one agent run
-//! another agent as a child of itself, so a language model orchestrating tools
-//! is, transparently, a language model orchestrating *other models*. It is the
-//! concrete "agents calling agents" mechanism behind the crate's
-//! recursive-language-model framing — the in-harness analogue of the graph-side
-//! `subgraph` recursion (in `tinyagents-graph`).
-//!
-//! This module provides the agent-calling-agent compositional primitive:
-//!
-//! - [`SubAgent`] wraps an [`AgentHarness`] and runs it as a *child run* one
-//!   level deeper in the recursion tree than its caller.
-//! - [`SubAgentTool`] adapts a [`SubAgent`] into a typed [`ToolDispatch`] that
-//!   runs in the background by default, returning a job id immediately; callers
-//!   can request `mode: "inline"` to await the child and receive its final
-//!   result in the same call.
-//! - [`tinyagents_harness_tools::subagents::SubAgentJobsTool`] and [`tinyagents_harness_tools::subagents::SubAgentMessageTool`] let the host or parent
-//!   query those jobs and steer live children by job id.
-//! - [`SubAgentSession`] keeps a single [`SubAgent`] alive across multiple
-//!   turns, *reusing* the same harness while accumulating the conversation
-//!   transcript — the post-completion, human-in-the-loop reuse primitive.
-//!
-//! # Reuse vs. steering
-//!
-//! There are two ways an orchestrator keeps a sub-agent "in play" across human
-//! input:
-//!
-//! - **Reuse** ([`SubAgentSession`]): the child run *completes*, the
-//!   orchestrator obtains human input, then calls the **same** sub-agent again
-//!   carrying the prior transcript. Nothing is killed or restarted.
-//! - **Steering** ([`tinyagents_harness_tools::subagents::SubAgentMessageTool`]): an orchestrator or human sends a
-//!   message to a **still-running** job. Delivery occurs at a safe checkpoint.
-//!
-//! `SubAgentSession` implements the first. The flow is:
-//!
-//! 1. `session.send(state, ctx, vec![Message::user("…")])` — runs the sub-agent
-//!    over the retained transcript and folds its reply back in.
-//! 2. Inspect the returned [`AgentRun`]; obtain human input out-of-band.
-//! 3. `session.send(state, ctx, vec![Message::user(human_reply)])` — the same
-//!    sub-agent answers with the full prior context still in the transcript.
-//!
-//! Every send after the first emits [`AgentEvent::SubAgentReused`] so the reuse
-//! is visible alongside the per-send
-//! [`SubAgentStarted`][AgentEvent::SubAgentStarted]/[`SubAgentCompleted`][AgentEvent::SubAgentCompleted]
-//! bracket.
-//!
-//! # Depth tracking
-//!
-//! Every run carries a `depth` in its [`RunConfig`] (top-level runs are depth
-//! `0`). When a sub-agent is invoked at `parent_depth`, its child run is created
-//! at `parent_depth + 1`. The depth cap is
-//! [`RunLimits::max_depth`][tinyagents_harness::limits::RunLimits::max_depth]
-//! (default [`RunLimits::DEFAULT_MAX_DEPTH`][tinyagents_harness::limits::RunLimits::DEFAULT_MAX_DEPTH],
-//! i.e. `8`), read from the child harness's [`RunPolicy`][tinyagents_harness::runtime::RunPolicy].
-//! If the child depth would exceed the cap, the invocation fails fast with
-//! [`TinyAgentsError::SubAgentDepth`] *before* any model call — a deterministic,
-//! cheap guard against unbounded recursion.
-//!
-//! # Observability
-//!
-//! Each invocation emits [`AgentEvent::SubAgentStarted`] and
-//! [`AgentEvent::SubAgentCompleted`] (carrying the sub-agent name and child
-//! depth). When invoked with a shared [`EventSink`] — via
-//! [`SubAgent::invoke_with_events`] or [`SubAgent::invoke_in_parent`] — the child
-//! run's own events also flow onto the parent sink, so a parent observer sees
-//! the full nested run tree.
-//!
-//! # Layout
-//!
-//! - `types` holds the public type definitions.
-//! - This file holds the impls (constructors, the invoke methods, and the
-//!   typed-parent dispatcher).
-//! - `*_tests.rs` files hold the focused tests.
+//! Hosts create subagent requests through `SubagentDriver` and register the
+//! resulting jobs here for status, cancellation, messaging, and descendant
+//! settlement. This module does not construct or synchronously invoke child
+//! harnesses.

Subject: [PATCH 0917/1076] refactor(subagent): trim module re-exports and docs

The subagent module no longer re-exports the step and delegation helpers, and the module docs now describe only the lifecycle traits and driver. This narrows the public surface to the pieces hosts actually consume.

Subject: [PATCH 0918/1076] refactor(orchestration): drop unused fleet tool
 surface

The orchestration crate no longer exposes the parallel, status, teams,
topology, and workflow modules, and the fleet tool set helpers in the
subagent role module are gone. Admission is now documented as enforced
solely by the async driver, and status mapping imports come from
tinyagents-tasks.

Subject: [PATCH 0919/1076] refactor(subagent): accept optional parent thread
 id in job registration

The job registration now takes an optional parent thread id instead of a
required string, so callers without a parent thread can register jobs
without fabricating one. Unused imports were dropped alongside the change.

Subject: [PATCH 0921/1076] refactor(subagents): simplify driver tool job
 status handling

The driver tool now reads the registered job directly instead of waiting on
ownership or spawning a detached task, and awaiting_input is treated as a
successful status. This removes the duplicated completion plumbing so the
adapter only reports the current job state.

Subject: [PATCH 0922/1076] test(subagents): cover background spawn without
 delivery target

The test now exercises a background request that has no delivery target and
asserts the job is spawned and tracked in the registry rather than run inline.
It waits on the job separately and checks the completed status and output.

Subject: [PATCH 0923/1076] chore(orchestration): remove subagent and workflow
 modules

Delete the parallel, teams, workflow, subagent, status, and topology
modules along with their tests, examples, and integration tests. These
components are being dropped from the orchestration crate, leaving the
remaining surface to be rebuilt without them.

-//! Flagship registry showcase: an orchestrator that *designs* which sub-agents
-//! to call at runtime by resolving them **by name** from a
-//! [`CapabilityRegistry`], then runs them and composes their results.
-//!
-//! The pattern this example demonstrates is the whole point of the named
-//! capability registry:
-//!
-//! 1. **Register named capabilities.** Several specialized sub-agents
-//!    (`researcher`, `coder`, `summarizer`), each a [`SubAgent`] over an
-//!    [`OpenAiModel`] with a distinct system prompt, are wrapped as
-//!    [`SubAgentTool`]s and registered in a [`CapabilityRegistry`] under their
-//!    names.
-//! 2. **Discover.** The set of available capabilities (names + descriptions) is
-//!    read back out of the registry — nothing is hard-coded into the planner.
-//! 3. **Design.** An *orchestrator* agent is given the task plus the discovered
-//!    menu and decides, via structured output, **which** registered sub-agents
-//!    to invoke. It returns a list of names.
-//! 4. **Bind at runtime.** Each chosen name is resolved from the registry with
-//!    [`CapabilityRegistry::tool`] and spawned in parallel. Each spawn returns
-//!    a job id; the registry is queried until the results can be composed.
-//!
-//! Capabilities are therefore *named, discovered, and bound at runtime* — the
-//! orchestrator never holds a direct handle to any sub-agent; it only knows
-//! their names and looks them up in the registry when it decides to use them.
-//!
-//! Run with:
-//!
-//! ```text
-//! cargo run -p tinyagents-integration-tests --example orchestrator_subagents
-//! ```

-# `orchestration::teams` — durable agent-team coordination
-
-A **team** is a durable group of worker agents (members) who claim and
-complete collaborative tasks. The module enforces team structure invariants
-(no duplicate member names, valid task dependencies) and manages the event
-log that records every state change: members added, tasks created, claims,
-completions, and inter-member messages.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- **`TeamService<L: TeamLedger>`** — the main API: creates teams, adds members,
-  creates tasks, handles claims and completions, and routes messages. Generic
-  over a durable ledger.
-- **`TeamMemberExecutor` / `TeamService::start_member`** — runs a claimed task
-  through a host-supplied executor, persists its evidence, and releases the
-  task and idles the member when execution fails or completion is rejected.
-- **`TeamLedger`** — the trait for durable team state: CRUD operations for
-  teams, members, tasks, and events. Implementations handle all persistence.
-- **`SessionTeamLedger`** — built-in ledger backed by `tinyagents-session`'s
-  run ledger at a caller-supplied workspace root.
-- **`NewMember`, `TeamView`, `MemberShutdown`** — data types for snapshots and
-  operations.
-- **`TeamError`** — validation errors: duplicate members, unknown members,
-  cyclic task dependencies, etc.
-- **`run_member_graph`** — executes a member's work as a generic DAG (execute →
-  complete/fail → done), bridging host worker callbacks and the graph layer.
-  The `execute` step runs the worker through `SubagentDriver`
-  (`subagent::run_agent_step`) under an inert default policy, so existing
-  callers behave exactly as before.
-- **`run_member_graph_with` / `MemberStep`** — the same graph with explicit
-  driver policy (`AgentStepConfig`: `SpawnPolicy` admission scoped to the team
-  id with the member id as target, `SubAgentPolicy::timeout`, `ResultPolicy`).
-  Retry, token budget and role need worker-reported transient failures / usage /
-  a tool surface that `MemberOutcome` does not carry, so they do not take
-  effect through this adapter (use `subagent::run_agent_step` directly).
-  `MemberStep::with_cancellation` ties a step to the run's token (a pre-cancelled member never runs and goes to `on_failed`). `MemberStep::default()` shares one scope and has no target: give a limited
-  config a real `MemberStep::new(config, team, member)`.
-  A completed run goes to `on_complete` with the policy-trimmed output; a
-  spawn rejection, timeout, exceeded budget or worker-reported failure goes to
-  `on_failed` with the reason; a worker `Err` still fails the graph run.
-
-## Design and invariants
-
-- **Durable state at every step:** Team members, tasks, events, and watermarks
-  are all durably persisted via the ledger. Hosts can use any storage backend
-  that implements [`TeamLedger`].
-- **Event-sourced messaging:** All team events (messages, member adds, task
-  completions) are logged in the durable run event stream. Members read their
-  undelivered messages and advance a delivery watermark — making repeated
-  reads idempotent and safe for retries.
-- **Dependency-aware tasks:** Tasks form a directed acyclic graph with
-  dependencies. The service validates this at creation time (no cycles, no
-  self-dependencies, no unknown member/task references).
-- **Atomic task claims:** Task claiming uses atomic compare-and-swap to ensure
-  exactly one member claims each task. Completion is similarly atomic,
-  advancing task status and optionally requiring evidence.
-- **Watermark-based delivery:** Members have a message delivery watermark
-  (sequence number) that advances durably as messages are read. Hosts can call
-  message-delivery functions repeatedly without duplicating messages.
-
-## File map
-
-- **`service.rs`** — [`TeamService`] implementation: team/member/task CRUD,
-  validation, and coordination. [`TeamLedger`] trait definition.
-  [`SessionTeamLedger`] — session run-ledger adapter.
-- **`types.rs`** — data types: [`NewMember`], [`TeamView`], [`MemberShutdown`],
-  [`TeamError`].
-- **`graph.rs`** — member worker graph: `execute` → `complete`/`fail` → `done`
-  DAG. Host supplies `run_worker`, `on_complete`, `on_failed` callbacks.
-  [`MemberOutcome`] routes on success/failure.
-- **`runtime.rs`** — message delivery and prompt composition:
-  `deliver_pending_messages()` reads undelivered messages and advances
-  watermarks. `build_member_prompt()` composes the stable worker prompt from
-  task and delivered messages.
-- **`tests.rs`** — tests for team creation, member lifecycle, task coordination,
-  concurrency, and message delivery.
-
-## Relationship to other modules
-
-- **Depends on:** `tinyagents-graph` (DAG execution), `tinyagents-session` (run
-  ledger), `tinyagents-harness` (error types).
-- **Used by:** `orchestration::workflow` (to model multi-agent phases),
-  host code (for team management).
-- **Integration:** The workflow engine can model a phase as a team of agents.

-//! Durable, dependency-aware agent-team composition.

-//! all durable state changes.
-//!
-//! [`TeamService`] is the primary API: it validates team structure, manages

-//! coordination invariants (no duplicate names, no cycles in task dependencies,
-//! no dangling member or task references). `runtime` handles the per-member
-//! details: reading undelivered messages from the event log and composing the
-//! prompt a worker should receive. `graph` executes a member's work as a
-//! generic execute → complete/fail → done DAG, bridging the graph layer and
-//! durable team state.

-# `orchestration::workflow` — durable phase DAG execution
-
-A **workflow** is a directed acyclic graph of phases, each with associated
-agents, dependencies, and concurrency limits. The [`WorkflowEngine`] schedules
-phases topologically, spawns bounded-concurrent child tasks per phase,
-collects results, and manages state transitions durably.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- **`WorkflowEngine<E: WorkflowExecutor>`** — the execution engine: schedules
-  runnable phases, spawns child tasks, handles concurrency limits, collects
-  results, and persists state. Generic over a host-supplied executor.
-- **`WorkflowExecutor`** — the trait for host-supplied work: create and
-  monitor child tasks, cancel them, and query their status.
-- **`WorkflowStore`, `SessionWorkflowStore`** — durable run state: loads,
-  saves, claims (lease), and compare-and-swap updates. [`SessionWorkflowStore`]
-  wraps the session run ledger.
-- **`WorkflowRunSupervisor`** — process-local start/resume/stop coordination.
-  Hosts supply their task-context spawner and wrap the drive future with any
-  host parent or origin scopes. Every start installs a fresh cancellation
-  generation; stale handles cannot cancel a resumed loop.
-- **`WorkflowDefinition`, `WorkflowPhase`** — the declarative phase DAG: phase
-  names, descriptions, agent ids, dependencies, concurrency settings.
-- **`PhaseStatus`** — phase state machine: Pending → Running → (Completed |
-  Failed). Interrupted phases can reset to Pending for retry.
-- **State projection functions** — query and mutate the JSON phase-state
-  document: `phase_status()`, `next_runnable_phase()`, `all_phases_completed()`,
-  `reset_running_phases()`, `phase_prompt()`, `synthesize_summary()`.
-
-## Design and invariants
-
-- **Durable at every boundary:** Workflow runs and phase states are durably
-  persisted via [`WorkflowStore`]. The engine is safe to interrupt and resume.
-- **Topological scheduling:** Phases are scheduled in dependency order. The
-  engine finds the next runnable phase (all dependencies met), preventing
-  partial execution and cycles.
-- **Bounded parallelism:** The engine respects `default_concurrency` (agents
-  per phase in parallel) and `max_children` (total spawned children at once).
-  Phase work is fan-out (parallel agents) + fan-in (collect results).
-- **Deterministic retry:** If the engine is interrupted while running phases,
-  all running phases are reset to Pending (outputs cleared). Completed phases
-  remain immutable and are never retried.
-- **Result aggregation:** Upstream outputs (from dependency phases) are
-  collected and passed to downstream phases' prompts, allowing workflows to
-  reason over prior results.
-- **JSON phase state:** The phase-state document is JSON (a BTreeMap of phase
-  names to `{ status, outputs, reason, ... }`). This projection is durable,
-  queryable, and renderable in UIs.
-
-## File map
-
-- **`engine.rs`** — [`WorkflowEngine`] implementation: phase scheduling, child
-  task spawning and monitoring, state persistence, concurrency enforcement.
-  [`WorkflowStore`], [`SessionWorkflowStore`], [`WorkflowExecutor`] trait.
-- **`supervisor.rs`** — generation-safe cancellation and scheduling handles for
-  host-launched drive futures.
-- **`types.rs`** — data types: [`WorkflowDefinition`], [`WorkflowPhase`],
-  [`DefinitionError`], [`WorkflowDefinitionListResponse`].
-- **`state.rs`** — phase-state projection: JSON document queries and mutations.
-  [`PhaseStatus`], `next_runnable_phase()`, `phase_prompt()`,
-  `synthesize_summary()`, etc.
-- **`graph.rs`** — scheduler DAG: models workflow phases as a directed graph
-  for topological sorting and dependency resolution.
-- **`child_step.rs`** — runs each agent child through `SubagentDriver`
-  (`subagent::run_agent_step`). `WorkflowEngine::with_step_config` applies an
-  `AgentStepConfig` (spawn admission scoped per workflow run id and targeted
-  at the agent id, `SubAgentPolicy::timeout`, result policy). The default is
-  inert; a refused or timed-out child fails its phase with the reason (a
-  timed-out child is also cancelled by its registered id), and a
-  result-policy-trimmed output replaces the raw output (as a string). Retry,
-  token budget and role cannot take effect here: the executor reports no
-  usage, transient failures or tools. Admission slots are not refunded when an
-  interrupted phase re-runs on resume, and a per-parent live cap below
-  `default_concurrency` rejects siblings (failing the phase) instead of queueing.
-  Each child gets a child cancellation token of the run's token.
-- **`validate.rs`** — structural validation: no duplicate phases, valid
-  dependencies, no cycles, valid concurrency settings, etc.
-- **`tests.rs`** — tests for scheduling, phase transitions, concurrency,
-  result aggregation, and interruption/retry behavior.
-
-## Relationship to other modules
-
-- **Depends on:** `tinyagents-graph` (DAG validation), `tinyagents-session`
-  (run ledger), `tinyagents-harness` (cancellation, error types), and this crate's `subagent`
-  module (`run_agent_step`).
-- **Used by:** host orchestration logic (workflow management and execution).
-- **Integration:** Can model multi-agent phases as teams (via
-  `orchestration::teams`).
-
-## Typical usage
-
-1. Define a [`WorkflowDefinition`] with phases and dependencies.
-2. Create a [`WorkflowEngine`] with a host-supplied [`WorkflowExecutor`] and
-   [`WorkflowStore`].
-3. Call `engine.run()`: the engine schedules phases, spawns bounded child
-   tasks, collects results, and persists state.
-4. On interruption, retry `engine.run()`: running phases reset to Pending;
-   completed phases remain done.
-
-## Asynchronous authoritative persistence
-
-AsyncWorkflowStore and LedgerWorkflowStore retain a caller-supplied
-RunLedgerStore handle. The adapter awaits load, upsert, claim, compare-and-swap
-and lease renewal without choosing a workspace or falling back to SQLite.
-WorkflowPersistenceError retains LedgerError, including native driver kinds.
-
-AsyncWorkflowChildRegistration requires the executor to await registration;
-its synchronous entrypoint refuses. LegacyWorkflowRegistration explicitly
-adapts existing desktop callbacks.
-
-WorkflowEngine::new keeps the synchronous desktop contracts compatible.
-WorkflowEngine::new_async selects only the supplied AsyncWorkflowStore and
-AsyncWorkflowExecutor. Its initialise_async and drive_async entrypoints await
-persistence, child registration and heartbeat renewal, preserving typed sources.
-Legacy initialise/drive entrypoints refuse on an authoritative instance.
-
-An async executor must await register_async before waiting for a child. A
-refused registration interrupts the phase even if an executor ignores the
-error, cancels attempted children, and prevents later success. Results without
-a committed registration are rejected. Native fenced/backend failures remain
-typed and do not become a successful lifecycle hand-off or a SQLite fallback.
-
-This implements workflow-row persistence only. Child progress/status/events,
-host provider routing, generation-bound import and owner-aware recovery are
-separate prerequisites. Hosts must not advertise a complete cloud workflow
-migration or opt in before those owning contracts and dependencies are
-available upstream.

-//! Workflow execution engine: orchestrates phase scheduling, task spawning,
-//! and result collection.
-//!
-//! [`WorkflowEngine`] drives the scheduler, manages child task creation and
-//! claim-based assignment, handles phase state persistence and transitions,
-//! and enforces bounded concurrency. Legacy hosts supply [`WorkflowExecutor`];
-//! authoritative hosts select [`AsyncWorkflowExecutor`] and await the explicit
-//! async persistence entrypoints.

-//! wall-clock cap, so the per-model-call budget interrupts the slow call and

-//! A control case shows a *fast* model under the same small cap completes

Subject: [PATCH 0924/1076] refactor(subagent): rename spawn_async_subagent to
 spawn_subagent

The async spawn tool is now exposed as `spawn_subagent`, so the spawn tool
allowlist and the orchestrator fixture were updated to match. The subagent
module also re-exports `SubAgentOutput` from its policy module.

-This crate owns subagent orchestration policy and job lifecycle. Generic tool
-shells for its registry live in `tinyagents-harness-tools`, which depends on
-this crate only under its `subagents` feature.
+This crate owns the host-neutral policy and lifecycle for asynchronous
+subagents. Hosts provide planning, execution, persistence, authorization, and
+product effects.
 
 ## Public surface
 
-- `subagent::SubAgent` runs an `AgentHarness` as a child with inherited
-  lineage, cancellation, events, host authority, and recursion limits.
-- `subagent::SubAgentTool` starts a child asynchronously through typed
-  parent-context tool dispatch and immediately returns a stable job id. Hosts
-  Hosts that use the prepared lifecycle construct
-  `tinyagents_harness_tools::subagents::DriverSubAgentTool` directly.
-- `subagent::SubAgentJobRegistry` records queued, running, completed, failed,
-  and cancelled jobs on top of `tinyagents_tasks::DetachedTaskRegistry`.
-  `tinyagents_harness_tools::subagents::SubAgentJobsTool` queries them and
-  `SubAgentMessageTool` sends messages to live children.
-- `tinyagents_harness_tools::subagents::SubAgentJobsTool::with_sessions` overlays scoped durable sessions
-  on list/query/close/await; `with_task_store` adds parent-run task records.
-  `tinyagents_harness_tools::subagents::SubAgentMessageTool::with_sessions` accepts durable session ids for live
-  steering. The host supplies parent-scope mapping closures so durable stores
-  do not decide authorization.
-- `subagent::MultiTargetDelegationTool` exposes a configured target enum and
-  structured task envelope. Its `blocking` field maps to the standard `mode`
-  field, and exposure can be set to `Hidden` for host-only tools.
-- `subagent::DelegationTool` runs the graph plan/execute/review cycle through
-  an injected stage worker. Its default keeps the one-shot execution and
-  standalone `APPROVE` parser; `with_resumable_execution` opts checkpointed
-  threads into classify-and-resume behavior. Hosts can retain their worker's
-  approval decision with `ReviewApprovalPolicy::WorkerOutput`, project the
-  complete state, pending approval, or graph error into a `ToolResult` through
-  `with_result_projection`, and preserve declaration metadata with
-  `with_metadata`.
-- `parallel::ParallelFanoutTool` composes host task parsing, admission policy,
-  asynchronous preflight, branch-context creation, and execution with ordered
-  results and explicit rejection records.
-- `subagent::DriverSubagentSessionStore` persists reusable child-session
-  identity and history on the host document-store port. Hosts can continue by
-  durable id, close sessions, and prevent stale task completions from replacing
-  a newer assignment.
-- `subagent::SubAgentSession` reuses one child and its transcript across turns.
-- `subagent::SpawnPolicy` / `SpawnAdmission` bound child fan-out (per-parent
-  live cap, per-root total budget, target allowlist) with atomic reservation;
-  see `subagent/README.md`.
 - `subagent::SubagentDriver` coordinates durable resume, preparation,
-  execution, pause, and terminal persistence through host-supplied traits.
-  It is the single engine for an agent step: team member steps and workflow
-  agent children run through it too (`subagent::run_agent_step`), so they get
-  the same spawn admission, policy, result policy and typed outcome.
-- `steering::{steer_detached, steer_detached_with_request_id}` sends lane-checked
-  steering to a live child handle, or delegates it to the host's
-  `SteerFallback` when the handle is absent or the retained task has finished.
-  `SteeringRegistry` remains in `tinyagents-tasks`, where
-  `DetachedTaskRegistry` receives it at construction. `steering::cancel_for_thread`
-  cancels registered children belonging to a parent thread.
-
-The direct invocation implementation and its tool-focused tests live in
-`subagent/invocation/`. Durable lifecycle files live beside it in `subagent/`.

 ## Status vocabularies
 
-`OrchestrationTaskStatus` (crate `tinyagents-tasks`) is the one durable
-lifecycle status for a subagent or task run. The other enums stay because their
-serialized forms are persisted or consumed elsewhere, but each is expressed in
-terms of it through `From` / `TryFrom` impls (`NoEquivalentStatus` is the error
-of the fallible ones). The single mapping table, with the lossy cases, is in the
-`tinyagents-tasks` README. `DetachedSubagentStatus` stays the live type that
-carries a payload (output, question, error).
-
-| Type | Crate | Role |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| `OrchestrationTaskStatus` | tasks | Canonical durable status. |
-| `DetachedSubagentStatus` | orchestration (`subagent::detached`) | Live status published to waiters, with payload. Not serialized. |
-| `SubAgentJobStatus` | orchestration (`subagent::invocation`) | Status on `SubAgentJob` snapshots. |
-| `SubagentOutcomeKind` | orchestration (`subagent`) | What a driver-level run returned, with its pause/incomplete payload. |
-| `AgentRunStatus` | session (`run_ledger`) | Durable ledger row status. |
-| `TranscriptSubagentStatus` | session (`transcript::view`) | Display projection read back from a transcript. |
-| `CompletionStatus` | tasks (`completions`) | How a finished child ended, for the completion router. |
-
-The old `SubagentStatus` names remain as `#[deprecated]` type aliases at their
-original paths. `status::task_status_to_run_status` and
-`status::run_status_to_task_status` are `#[deprecated]` in favour of
-`AgentRunStatus::from` / `OrchestrationTaskStatus::from`. No wire format
-changed; golden serde tests pin each one.
-
-Dependency direction decides where an impl lives: ledger and transcript-view
-conversions are in `tinyagents-session`, `CompletionStatus` in
-`tinyagents-tasks`, and the job, detached and outcome ones beside their types
-in this crate. `to_task_status()` / `to_run_status()` on the job and detached
-types are kept as thin wrappers over the `From` impls.
+`OrchestrationTaskStatus` in `tinyagents-tasks` is the canonical durable task
+status. `DetachedSubagentStatus`, `SubAgentJobStatus`, `SubagentOutcomeKind`,
+`AgentRunStatus`, transcript status, and completion status retain their
+role-specific payloads and serialized forms, with conversions documented in
+`tinyagents-tasks`.
 
 ## Boundaries
 
-The crate owns subagent invocation and lifecycle (`subagent/`), durable team
-coordination (`teams/`: `TeamService`, `TeamLedger`, `run_member_graph`) and
-durable phase-DAG workflows (`workflow/`: `WorkflowEngine`, `WorkflowStore`).
-Generic graph execution remains in `tinyagents-graph`, while provider calls,
-tool dispatch mechanics, events, and run contexts remain in
-`tinyagents-harness`. This crate composes those primitives into child-agent
-behavior.
-
-`subagent::SubagentDriver` is the single agent-step engine (#349). Team member
-steps (`teams`) and workflow child steps (`workflow`) do not hand-roll their
-own lifecycle; both run through `subagent::run_agent_step`, which adapts a
-host-supplied worker onto the driver, so every agent step gets the same spawn
-admission, policy, result policy and typed outcome. Workflow steps are the one
-exception for structured output: `workflow::run_child_step` clears
-`result_policy.schema` before calling `run_agent_step` and validates the
-structured value itself (`workflow/child_step.rs`). See `teams/README.md` and
-`workflow/README.md`.
-
-Hosts remain responsible for agent definitions, model selection, credentials,
-workspace policy, durable storage implementations, and authorization. Hosted
-child invocations always re-enter through the exact capability bundle carried
-by their parent context.
+This crate owns async subagent lifecycle only. Generic graph execution stays

Subject: [PATCH 0927/1076] test(e2e): simplify mock capability matrix to
 regular tools

The fuzz-style matrix test was reduced to a single loop over the lookup flag, dropping the always-false subagent dimension and its nested loop. The scenario label and doc comment were updated to match the narrower coverage.

 indentation in mock capabilities test

Reindent the mock matrix test body and correct the expected tool count to
only account for the lookup tool, since the subagent flag is not part of
this scenario.

Subject: [PATCH 0929/1076] docs: update subagent references to new harness
 tools crate

Documentation and doc comments now point at `DriverSubAgentTool` in
`tinyagents-harness-tools` instead of the removed `SubAgent`/`SubAgentTool`
types in `tinyagents-orchestration`, and the orchestration subagent README
drops the stale agent-step section in favour of a short note on the temporary
graph re-exports.

 error result

The status tool result now only returns a successful JSON result for completed, running, and queued statuses, so awaiting_input falls through to the error branch. This makes the tool report awaiting_input as a failure rather than a normal state.

 async job snapshots

Rename and rewrite the concurrent driver alias tests so they assert the
async dispatch path returns a running job snapshot immediately and
coalesces followers onto the same task id, rather than blocking until the
shared result completes. The replay test now uses a single async tool
with a completion handler and verifies the snapshot is returned before
the job settles.

Subject: [PATCH 0932/1076] test(subagent): add registry test helpers for
 driver job fixtures

Introduce a RegistryTestHelpers trait and JobLink fixture builder so
registry tests register jobs through the same driver path used by
DriverSubAgentTool, with helpers for marking results and budget overruns.

Reword the subagent README so the async surface is described as a driver-backed job registry with durable lifecycle ports, and note that DriverSubAgentTool calls always start a background job that hosts wait on separately. Also drop tinyagents-graph from the documented dependency direction.

Subject: [PATCH 0936/1076] refactor(subagent): rename registry test fixture
 helpers for clarity

Renamed the test-only helper trait methods and fixture struct in the
subagent registry tests so their names describe what they do to the
fixture rather than the production registry API. This keeps the test
scaffolding from being mistaken for real registry operations.

Subject: [PATCH 0937/1076] fix(subagents): capture delivery target before
 spawning detached task

The detached task moved `target` into its closure, so the completion
callbacks could no longer borrow it and delivery silently stopped firing.
Cloning the target up front keeps the callbacks working, and the tests no
longer assert a fixed task id that the driver does not guarantee.

Subject: [PATCH 0938/1076] test(subagents): rename spawn_async_subagent to
 spawn_subagent in driver tool tests

Update the driver tool test fixtures to construct DriverSubAgentTool with the
spawn_subagent name instead of spawn_async_subagent, keeping the tests aligned
with the current tool naming.

Subject: [PATCH 0939/1076] docs(orchestration): update dependency direction in
 crate docs

The crate-level documentation now lists session, tasks, and storage ports alongside harness and runtime as the crates orchestration depends on, and rewords the note about lower-level crates not depending on this composition layer.

Subject: [PATCH 0940/1076] fix(execution_spec): restrict spawn tool roster to
 spawn_subagent

The spawn tool name list now contains only spawn_subagent, dropping
spawn_parallel_agents and spawn_worker_thread so that scope detection no longer
treats those retired names as spawn tools. A test pins the roster and the
detection behaviour for the removed names.

Subject: [PATCH 0941/1076] docs(subagents): clarify driver tool async
 lifecycle

The module documentation now states that every accepted call starts a
background job and returns its status immediately, with waiting and
completion delivery handled as separate host operations. This makes the
non-blocking contract of the tool adapter explicit.

Subject: [PATCH 0942/1076] test(subagents): cover detached driver timeout job
 status

Add a test that runs a detached subagent whose policy times out while the
executor is still blocked, asserting the job is recorded as incomplete with a
timeout kind. Also drop the delivery target from an unrelated alias pause test
so it no longer relies on a parent thread.

Subject: [PATCH 0943/1076] docs(subagents): clarify detached execution in
 driver tool docs

The driver tool documentation now states that every call starts a detached
job and returns its task reference immediately, with the delivery target only
controlling host completion callbacks. The README was updated to drop the
reference to dropped inline calls, since inline execution no longer occurs.

Subject: [PATCH 0946/1076] docs(harness): update subagent steering docs for
 driver-based delegation

Replace references to the removed `SubAgentTool` and `SubAgentSession` with the
async `DriverSubAgentTool` and host-planned `SubagentDriver`, which return a job
reference instead of running child work inline. The runtime comparison pages and
steering README are updated to match the new delegation model.

Subject: [PATCH 0956/1076] refactor(subagent): bundle job insert parameters
 into a struct

The job registry's insert_job took a long positional argument list, so the
parameters are now grouped into a JobInsert struct that is destructured on
entry. This keeps call sites readable and makes the metadata fields explicit
at the point of construction. An unused test module declaration was also
dropped.

Subject: [PATCH 0957/1076] refactor(subagent): tidy invocation and policy
 plumbing

Reformat the subagent driver tool and its tests, and simplify the
invocation and policy modules without changing behaviour. The
restructuring keeps the job registry and status mapping logic easier to
follow ahead of further subagent work.

Subject: [PATCH 0959/1076] docs: align subagent docs with driver-backed job
 model

The README, hosting guide, and LangChain parity notes now describe child
execution as host-planned through `SubagentDriver`, where every call starts an
asynchronous job and returns a stable job id. This removes references to the
retired inline/background mode split and the `invoke_hosted_in_parent` path so
the docs match the current orchestration surface.

The crate-level docs referenced the `multimodal` module with an intra-doc link that fails to resolve when the feature is disabled, so the link is replaced with plain text pointing at the module.

Subject: [PATCH 0962/1076] test(subagents): assert driver tool spawns and
 completes jobs

The driver subagent tool test now records the planner request and verifies
the tool returns a running job that later completes with the driver result,
rather than expecting the output inline. This covers the asynchronous
spawn-and-settle behaviour and checks the task key and input passed to the
planner.

Subject: [PATCH 0964/1076] test(subagents): scope driver tool request
 assertions to a block

Wrap the recorded request assertions in an explicit block so the mutex guard is released at the end of the scope instead of relying on an explicit drop, keeping the test's locking behaviour unchanged while making the guard's lifetime clearer.

 `ClaudeAgentSdkConfig::enabled` is a plain data field for the embedding

+Doctor may construct `ClaudeAgentSdkProvider::for_inspection` only with an
+explicit API key or auth token captured by its host. This path launches the CLI
+with `--bare`, an empty system prompt, `--tools ""`,
+`--no-session-persistence`, and one allowed turn. It sets
+`CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_OUTPUT_TOKENS` from the request, capped at five, uses a
+temporary HOME, and passes only the frozen explicit credential and optional
+base URL. It rejects tool declarations and multi-message histories before
+spawning. Ordinary `new` / `for_model` calls retain their existing CLI
+configuration and behavior. A CLI-managed login cannot be used by inspection
+because its credential cannot be frozen by the host.

Subject: [PATCH 0989/1076] chore(graph): remove tinyagents-graph crate and its
 docs

The graph runtime crate, its harness stream module, and the graph module
documentation are deleted. The durable workflow runtime is being retired, so
the crate, its tests, and the docs describing it are no longer maintained.

-# graph
-
-TinyAgents' durable workflow runtime (LangGraph-style), and one of the
-load-bearing surfaces of the crate's recursive architecture.
-
-Because a node can embed another compiled graph (`subgraph`) or invoke a
-sub-agent, **graphs run graphs** and orchestration recurses while every step
-stays typed, checkpointed, and observable. Workflows driven from a host
-orchestrator use these same runtime types.
-
-Each submodule keeps type definitions in `types.rs`, behavior in `mod.rs`, and
-unit tests in a sibling `<module>_tests.rs` (`mod_tests.rs` beside a `mod.rs`); complex submodules additionally
-carry their own `README.md` — see the module map below.
-
-## Module map
-
-| Module | Concern |
-| --- | --- |
-| `builder` | Authoring/compile contract: `GraphBuilder` accumulates nodes, edges, conditional routing, and a reducer; `.compile()` validates topology and freezes it into an immutable `CompiledGraph`. See [`builder/README.md`](builder/README.md). |
-| `channel` | Channel-per-field state model (additive) — per-field merge rules and concurrent-write conflict detection, running on the unmodified executor. See [`channel/README.md`](channel/README.md). |
-| `checkpoint` | The `Checkpointer` trait and backends (file, sqlite, in-memory) — durability that makes runs resumable and time-travelable. See [`checkpoint/README.md`](checkpoint/README.md). |
-| `command` | `Command`, `Interrupt`, `NodeResult`, `RouteTarget`, `Send` — the vocabulary a node handler returns to update state, route, interrupt, or fan out. See [`command/README.md`](command/README.md). |
-| `compiled` | The superstep executor, `CompiledGraph` — sequential/parallel steps, node retry, resumable failure, run/resume/state APIs. See [`compiled/README.md`](compiled/README.md). |
-| `dag` | Structural validation (duplicates, dangling edges, cycles) of a borrowed dependency-node view, independent of the graph runtime. See [`dag/README.md`](dag/README.md). |
-| `export` | Graph introspection/visualization: topology extraction, Mermaid/JSON export, validation reports. |
-| `goals` | A durable per-thread goal (single "completion contract"), continuation loop, and harness tools. See [`goals/README.md`](goals/README.md). |
-| `observability` | Durable graph observability: journals, status stores, the journaling sink, latency/health rollups, Langfuse export. See [`observability/README.md`](observability/README.md). |
-| `orchestration` | Managed child-work controls (`spawn`/`await`/`cancel`/... ) exposed as harness tools, backed by a `TaskStore`. Now lives in `tinyagents-tasks` ([README](../../tinyagents-tasks/src/README.md)); this module only re-exports it for compatibility. |
-| `parallel` | `map_reduce` — ordered, bounded-concurrency parallel map/reduce with a configurable failure policy, independent of the graph executor. |
-| `recursion` | Recursion policy and depth tracking: `RecursionFrame`/`RecursionPolicy`/`RecursionStack`/`RunTree` bound and observe nested graph/subgraph/sub-agent recursion. See [`recursion/README.md`](recursion/README.md). |
-| `reducer` | `StateReducer`/`Reducer` implementations (overwrite, append, min/max, set-union, closures) that fold branch updates into committed state at a superstep boundary. See [`reducer/README.md`](reducer/README.md). |
-| `status` | `GraphRunStatus` — a compact run-status snapshot. See [`status/README.md`](status/README.md). |
-| `stream` | `GraphEvent`, `GraphEventSink`, and streaming modes — the live, in-process event surface `observability` makes durable. See [`stream/README.md`](stream/README.md). |

-## How the pieces fit together
-
-1. **Author**: `GraphBuilder` (in `builder`) accumulates nodes (`NodeHandler`),
-   edges, conditional `Route`s, and a `StateReducer`, then `.compile()`
-   validates the topology and produces an immutable `CompiledGraph` (in
-   `compiled`).
-2. **Run**: `CompiledGraph::run`/`run_with_thread` drives supersteps. Each
-   step's node handlers return `NodeResult`s built from `command` vocabulary
-   (`Command::Update`, `Command::Goto`, `Interrupt`, `Send` for fanout); the
-   step boundary folds results through the configured reducer (`reducer`, or
-   `channel` for per-field semantics).
-3. **Persist**: when a `Checkpointer` (`checkpoint`) is configured, each
-   boundary is checkpointed, making the run resumable, forkable, and
-   time-travelable; `status::GraphRunStatus` gives a compact live snapshot.
-4. **Observe**: `stream::GraphEvent`s fan out live through a `GraphEventSink`;
-   `observability` makes that history durable (journals, status stores,
-   Langfuse export) and derives latency/health rollups.
-5. **Recurse**: a node can embed another compiled graph (`subgraph`) or a
-   harness agent (`subagent_node`), or hand off named child work through
-   `orchestration`'s tool surface; `recursion` tracks depth and the run tree
-   across all three so nesting stays bounded and observable.
-6. **Test**: `testkit` provides node doubles, a recorder, fluent assertions,
-   and storage conformance suites so both hand-written graphs and new storage
-   backends can be verified against the same contracts.
-
-## Errors
-
-Graph-specific failures surface through the crate's shared `Result`/
-`TinyAgentsError` (see `crate::error`); the most graph-specific variants are
-`TinyAgentsError::RecursionLimit` (nesting/loop depth exceeded) and
-`TinyAgentsError::InvalidConcurrentUpdate` (a same-step concurrent write to a
-channel that does not allow it — see `channel`).
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- Checkpoints are written **only at superstep boundaries**, never mid-node —
-  a node handler must be safe to re-run from scratch after a crash.
-- Subgraph and sub-agent embedding always extends the child's checkpoint
-  namespace with the embedding node id; inspecting a child's checkpoints
-  directly requires accounting for that namespace suffix.
-- Parallel-step determinism depends on branches never mutating shared state
-  outside their own snapshot clone; the reducer, not lock ordering, is what
-  resolves conflicting concurrent writes.

-/// Compiles the `plan -> model -> tools -> settle` agent loop into a
-/// [`CompiledGraph<LoopState, LoopUpdate>`] bound to `rt`.
-///
-/// # Shape
-///
-/// [`LoopState`] doubles as its own [`LoopUpdate`] (`GraphBuilder::overwrite`,
-/// see that type's docs): every node returns the whole next state rather than
-/// a partial patch, so the reducer is a plain overwrite and there is no
-/// separate merge step to keep in sync with the state shape.
-///
-/// Every node routes with an explicit [`crate::Command::goto`]
-/// (`mark_command_routing`) rather than static/conditional edges — the
-/// `plan`/`model`/`tools` nodes can each jump to more than one destination
-/// depending on the turn's outcome (a tool-free response skips `tools`; a
-/// [`tinyagents_harness::context::MiddlewareControl::JumpTo`] can loop back
-/// to `plan` from `tools`, or straight to `settle` from `model`/`tools`), so a
-/// fixed edge table cannot express the routing — see `runtime::apply_control`
-/// for the full mapping from [`tinyagents_harness::context::MiddlewareControl`]
-/// to a `goto`. `plan`, `model`, and `tools` are also marked as interrupt
-/// points for the export (see this function's body, below): a steering
-/// pause (from `plan`) or a
-/// [`tinyagents_harness::context::MiddlewareControl::Interrupt`] (from any of
-/// the three) surfaces as a real [`crate::Interrupt`], checkpointed by the
-/// graph executor exactly like any other durable interrupt — this is how
-/// A5's "approvals surfacing as graph interrupts" requirement is met: an
-/// approval gate is just a middleware that requests
-/// `MiddlewareControl::Interrupt`, and the graph rendition pauses/resumes it
-/// through the same `CompiledGraph::resume` path a hand-authored
-/// human-in-the-loop node would use.
-///
-/// # Tool batch execution
-///
-/// The `tools` node calls
-/// [`tinyagents_harness::agent_loop::phases::execute_tool_batch`] once per
-/// activation, for the *whole* turn's tool calls in one node run rather than
-/// one graph node per tool call. This preserves the direct loop's ordering,
-/// concurrency-eligibility, and budget/limit semantics exactly (see that
-/// function's docs) without re-deriving them as a `Send`-fanout over
-/// per-call nodes, which would have to reimplement the direct loop's
-/// serial-admission / serial-or-concurrent-dispatch decision as graph
-/// topology instead of reusing it.
-///
-/// # Recursion / limits
-///
-/// [`tinyagents_harness::limits::RunLimits`] is enforced the same way the
-/// direct loop enforces it — via `ctx.record_model_call()`/tool budget
-/// checks inside the node bodies, fed from the same
-/// [`tinyagents_harness::context::RunContext::limits`] — so a caller who also
-/// wants the *graph's own* recursion guard (independent of the harness's
-/// limits) can additionally call
-/// [`crate::compiled::CompiledGraph::with_recursion_policy`]/
-/// [`crate::compiled::CompiledGraph::with_run_deadline`] on the returned
-/// graph, exactly as any other compiled graph.

-//! Compiled-graph rendition of the harness agent loop (A5).
-//!
-//! `docs/runtime-comparison/langgraph.md` §4 ("Agent loop as a graph") and
-//! `docs/runtime-comparison/pydantic-ai.md` §4 (the `iter` API) both ask the
-//! same question of tinyagents: can the default `plan -> model -> tools`
-//! agent loop — normally a monolithic Rust function
-//! (`tinyagents_harness::agent_loop::run_loop`) — also be expressed as an
-//! ordinary [`crate::CompiledGraph`], so it gets the graph runtime's
-//! checkpoint/resume, step-by-step `iter()`, and interrupt machinery for
-//! free, instead of each of those being reinvented (or left unavailable) on
-//! the harness's own loop?
-//!
-//! This module is "yes": [`compile_loop`] builds a real
-//! `CompiledGraph<LoopState, LoopUpdate>` with four nodes
-//! (`plan`/`model`/`tools`/`settle`, see [`types::node`]), and
-//! [`AgentLoopGraphExt::iter`] drives it step-by-step through [`LoopIter`].
-//! [`GraphLoopDriver`] additionally plugs the same phase logic into
-//! [`tinyagents_harness::runtime::AgentHarness::invoke`] (and friends) via
-//! [`tinyagents_harness::agent_loop::phases::LoopDriver`] +
-//! [`tinyagents_harness::runtime::AgentHarness::with_loop_driver`], selected
-//! by [`tinyagents_harness::runtime::RunPolicy::execution`]`::Graph`.
-//!
-//! # Dependency direction
-//!
-//! `tinyagents-graph` depends on `tinyagents-harness`, never the reverse, so
-//! this compiled-graph rendition lives here rather than in the harness
-//! crate — the harness only exposes the seam
-//! ([`tinyagents_harness::agent_loop::phases`]) this module plugs into. See
-//! that module's doc comment for the harness-side half of the boundary.
-//!
-//! # Scope
-//!
-//! This is a **subset** of `run_loop`'s behavior, not a byte-for-byte
-//! reimplementation. It covers the common path exercised by
-//! `crates/tinyagents-integration-tests/tests/loop_as_graph.rs`: tool
-//! calling, structured output (`ResponseFormat::Auto`/`JsonSchema`, provider-
-//! schema and tool-call-fallback strategies), the output-validation retry
-//! loop (A3), run limits, `MiddlewareControl` routing (`JumpTo`,
-//! `StopWithFinal`, `Interrupt`, `UpdateState`), and steering
-//! (cancel/pause/inject). It intentionally does **not** cover: host-model
-//! routing (`HostCapabilities`), cross-provider handoff transforms
-//! (`agent_loop::handoff_transform`), the deferred-tool discovery bridge,
-//! truncated-empty-response recovery/retry, `RunPolicy::retry`/`fallback`
-//! (a registered `ModelMiddleware` still runs, so a retry-on-error
-//! middleware still applies, but the built-in retry/fallback loop the direct
-//! model call performs does not), response caching, and
-//! `StructuredStrategy::Prompted`/`ToolCallUnion` (A6's
-//! `structured_strategy_override`) or `EndStrategy::Early`/`Exhaustive` (A6);
-//! `resolve_structured_plan` also resolves the profile-driven `Auto` choice
-//! against the *default* model binding rather than the turn's actually-
-//! resolved model (see that function's docs). [`tinyagents_harness::runtime::RunPolicy::execution`]
-//! defaults to [`tinyagents_harness::runtime::LoopExecution::Direct`], so
-//! every existing caller is unaffected unless it opts in.
-//!
-//! # Lifecycle events
-//!
-//! The node bodies announce `TurnStarted`, `TurnCompleted` and
-//! `MessageAppended` at the same points as the direct loop, through
-//! [`tinyagents_harness::agent_loop::phases`]'s `lifecycle_*` functions: pending
-//! appends and the turn open right before `ModelStarted`, the assistant reply
-//! after the model call, the tool results (and the turn close) after a tool
-//! batch, and the final close in `settle`. The transcript present at the first
-//! `plan` activation is the seed and is never announced. Nested tool calls never
-//! reach the transcript, so they never produce `MessageAppended`.
-//!
-//! # Tool batch execution shape
-//!
-//! The `tools` node runs a turn's whole tool-call batch in one node
-//! activation via [`tinyagents_harness::agent_loop::phases::execute_tool_batch`]
-//! rather than one graph node (or one `Send` fan-out branch) per tool call.
-//! This was the deliberate choice over a per-call fan-out: the direct loop's
-//! serial-admission / serial-or-concurrent-dispatch decision (see
-//! `tinyagents_harness::agent_loop::tools`'s module docs) is genuinely
-//! call-count- and middleware-dependent, and re-deriving it as graph
-//! topology would either have to duplicate that decision as a router (two
-//! sources of truth to keep in sync) or lose the exact ordering/budget
-//! guarantees the direct loop promises. Reusing the harness function as-is
-//! keeps the tool batch's ordering, concurrency-eligibility, and budget/limit
-//! semantics identical to the direct loop by construction, at the cost of a
-//! coarser graph (a `tools` node activation is opaque to the executor's own
-//! per-task checkpointing — a batch is atomic from the graph's point of
-//! view, resuming re-runs the whole batch rather than only its unfinished
-//! calls).
-//!
-//! # `GraphLoopDriver` vs. `compile_loop`/`LoopIter`
-//!
-//! These are two different integration points sharing the same node bodies
-//! (`runtime::plan_node`/`model_node`/`tools_node`/`settle_node`), not one
-//! layered on the other:
-//!
-//! - [`compile_loop`]/[`LoopIter`] build and step a real
-//!   `CompiledGraph<LoopState, LoopUpdate>` over an owned [`runtime::LoopRuntime`]
-//!   (`Arc`'d harness/state, owned `RunContext`) — this is the path that gets
-//!   checkpointing, `resume`, and `iter()`.
-//! - [`GraphLoopDriver`] is handed only a transient `&mut RunContext`/`&mut
-//!   AgentRun`/`&mut HarnessRunStatus` bundle by
-//!   [`tinyagents_harness::agent_loop::phases::LoopDriver::drive`] (that
-//!   trait's signature mirrors `run_loop`'s own borrowed-state contract) and
-//!   an `&AgentHarness`/`&State` it does not own. Building a `LoopRuntime`
-//!   (which needs `Arc<AgentHarness<State, Ctx>>` to satisfy the `'static`
-//!   bound `GraphBuilder::add_node`'s closures require) from a bare `&AgentHarness`
-//!   is not possible in safe Rust without either forcing every caller of
-//!   `with_loop_driver` to already hold an `Arc<AgentHarness>` (which would
-//!   make installing a driver on a not-yet-`Arc`'d harness impossible — a
-//!   real usability regression) or unsafely extending the borrow's lifetime
-//!   (which this workspace denies via `unsafe_code = "deny"`). So
-//!   [`GraphLoopDriver`]'s `drive` instead calls the exact same node bodies
-//!   directly, in a hand-rolled loop, against the real borrowed `&mut`
-//!   state — no `Arc`, no `Mutex`, no `CompiledGraph` involved — which is
-//!   sound with zero unsafe code precisely because a borrowed async call
-//!   needs no `'static` bound. The two paths are behaviorally identical
-//!   (same node functions) but the `GraphLoopDriver` path does not get graph
-//!   checkpointing: an interrupt it raises still pauses the run (mirroring
-//!   `run.paused`, exactly like a steering pause on the direct loop) but is
-//!   not itself a resumable `CompiledGraph` checkpoint — resume it the same
-//!   way a paused direct-loop run is resumed (feed `run.messages` back in as
-//!   the next call's `input`), not via `CompiledGraph::resume`. A caller that
-//!   wants graph-level checkpoint/resume across the interrupt should drive
-//!   the loop through [`compile_loop`]/[`LoopIter`] directly instead of
-//!   through `AgentHarness::invoke`.

-# graph::builder
-
-The authoring/compile contract: `GraphBuilder` accumulates nodes, edges,
-conditional routing, and a reducer; `.compile()` validates the topology and
-freezes it into an immutable `CompiledGraph`.
-
-This is the entry point every workflow uses before it can run. Because a node handler can itself
-drive another compiled graph or a sub-agent, the builder is also what a
-recursively-generated sub-workflow compiles through, one level down.
-
-## Public surface
-
-### `GraphBuilder<State, Update>`
-
-- `new()` / `overwrite()` (the latter is `State == Update` with the built-in
-  overwrite reducer) — construction.
-- `set_reducer`, `set_entry`, `set_finish` — required wiring: a reducer and an
-  entry node are validated at `compile()`.
-- `add_node`, `add_edge`, `add_sequence`, `add_waiting_edge`,
-  `add_conditional_edges`, `add_barrier_relief` — topology construction.
-- `mark_command_routing`, `with_command_destinations` — declares a node
-  routes exclusively via `Command::goto` rather than static/conditional
-  edges; `compile()` rejects nodes that mix the two.
-- `with_node_kind`, `with_node_metadata`, `mark_subgraph` — behavior-free
-  introspection markers surfaced by `graph::export`. `mark_deferred` and
-  `mark_interrupt` also set the marker but are *not* behavior-free:
-  `mark_deferred` is `NodePolicy::defer`, and `mark_interrupt` is an alias
-  for `interrupt_before`.
-- `interrupt_before`, `interrupt_after` — executor-level pauses at named
-  nodes (before the handler runs / after it runs but before its result is
-  applied); see `docs/modules/graph/interrupts.md`.
-- `with_parallel`, `with_max_concurrency`, `with_node_timeout`,
-  `with_recursion_limit`, `with_graph_id`, `with_name`, `set_defaults` —
-  per-graph configuration, either called directly or bundled via
-  `GraphDefaults`.
-- `compile() -> Result<CompiledGraph<State, Update>>` — validates topology
-  (missing nodes, dangling edges, START/END misuse, command-routing conflicts,
-  missing reducer) and freezes the builder into an immutable, cheaply-clonable
-  `CompiledGraph`.
-
-### Supporting types (`types.rs`)
-
-- `START` / `END` — reserved virtual entry/terminal node names.
-- `NodeHandler<State, Update>` / `NodeFuture<Update>` — the boxed async
-  handler shape every node closure is stored as.
-- `NodeContext` — per-task runtime context passed to a handler: run identity,
-  step, resume value, fork identity (`ForkId`) in a parallel step, `send_arg`
-  for `Send`/`GraphInput`-scheduled activations, recursion frames, the
-  `ChildRunSink`, and an optional `AgentInvocationBinding`.
-- `ForkId` — identifies one branch of a concurrent superstep (`branch_index`
-  + `node`).
-- `Route` — an optional newtype for a conditional-route label, for routers
-  that prefer a typed value over a bare string.
-- `GraphDefaults` — an optional bundle of per-graph defaults applied in one
-  `set_defaults` call; every field is additive (`Some` overrides, `None`
-  leaves the current value).
-- `RouterFn<State>` — the conditional-router closure shape.
-- `BarrierRelief` (in `mod.rs`) — a relief registration for a mixed fan-in
-  barrier, so a barrier fed by one unconditional and one conditional-only
-  predecessor doesn't deadlock when the conditional branch isn't taken.

-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | `GraphBuilder` struct, `NodeContext`, `ForkId`, `Route`, `GraphDefaults`, `NodeHandler`/`NodeFuture`/`RouterFn` aliases, `START`/`END`, and the crate-private `NodeMeta`/`BuilderNode`/`Branch`. |
-| `mod.rs` | All `GraphBuilder` methods (construction, topology, configuration, `compile`) and `BarrierRelief`. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests for the compile contract: reducer requirement, START/END validation, missing-node/route detection, command-routing conflicts. |

-## How it fits together
-
-- `compile()` is the sole producer of `compiled::CompiledGraph` — see
-  `compiled/README.md` for what runs after a builder is compiled.
-- `command::Command`/`RouteTarget` are what a node handler returns at
-  runtime; `mark_command_routing`/`with_command_destinations` only declare
-  the *intent* to route that way so `compile()` can reject a mixed topology
-  and `export` can draw the advisory destinations — the runtime always
-  resolves the real successor from the emitted `Command`.
-- `reducer::StateReducer` is the trait `set_reducer` accepts; `overwrite()`
-  is shorthand for the built-in `OverwriteStateReducer`.
-- `recursion::RecursionFrame` values seeded into a `NodeContext` come from
-  `subgraph`/`subagent_node`, not from this module — the builder only carries
-  the `recursion_limit` cap through to the compiled graph.
-## Operational constraints
-
-- `compile()` fails closed: no reducer, a missing/self-referential entry,
-  dangling edges, START/END misuse, or a node that mixes command routing with
-  static/conditional edges all fail validation rather than compiling a graph
-  that would misbehave at runtime.
-- A `BarrierRelief`'s `relief_node` must actually be one of `barrier_node`'s
-  registered waiting predecessors (via `add_waiting_edge`) — a relief
-  registered against a barrier with no matching waiting registration is a
-  silent no-op at execution time, not a compile error.
-- `add_sequence` only wires edges between nodes that must already exist via
-  `add_node`; it does not itself add nodes.

-//! Durable graph builder and compile contract.

-//! and [`GraphBuilder::compile`] validates that topology and freezes it into an
-//! immutable [`crate::CompiledGraph`]. Because a node handler can itself
-//! drive another compiled graph or a sub-agent, the same builder API is what
-//! hand-written Rust and runtime assembly use when constructing a workflow

-/// A relief registration for a mixed fan-in barrier.

-/// A waiting/barrier node (see [`GraphBuilder::add_waiting_edge`]) normally
-/// activates only once *every* registered predecessor has arrived. When one
-/// of those predecessors (`relief_node`) is only reachable via a conditional
-/// branch out of `source`, and `source` routes elsewhere instead, that
-/// predecessor never runs and the barrier would wait forever.
-///
-/// A [`BarrierRelief`] fixes that without weakening the barrier into a plain
-/// edge (which would let a *taken* branch's downstream data race the merge
-/// and get silently dropped): when `source` completes a superstep without
-/// routing to `relief_node`, the executor registers a phantom arrival of
-/// `relief_node` at `barrier_node`, so the barrier can still clear on the
-/// predecessors that actually ran.

-//! A [`TaskCache`] over `tinystoragedrivers` document ports.
-//!
-//! [`DriverTaskCache`] keeps cached node results on whatever backend the host
-//! opened. The document handle is already bound to a tenant scope, so two
-//! tenants never see each other's entries even when graph, node and input hash
-//! coincide.
-//!
-//! # Layout
-//!
-//! Entries are documents of the shared `tsd.kv` collection, owned by `graph`:
-//! `{ owner, ns: "task_cache:<graph>", key, value }` with `key` =
-//! `Key::of([node, hash])`, under `Key::of([owner, ns, key])`, so any hash
-//! length is accepted and no two entries meet. A graph's entries share a
-//! namespace, which is what [`clear`](TaskCache::clear) drops. A cache built
-//! with [`with_namespace`](DriverTaskCache::with_namespace) uses
-//! `task_cache:<namespace>:<graph>` so independent caches can share a backend.
-//!
-//! # Expiry
-//!
-//! The deadline is the record's `expires_ms` metadata, an absolute Unix epoch
-//! millisecond instant that outlives the process. The driver enforces it: an
-//! expired entry reads as absent, which this cache reports as a miss.

-# graph::channel
-
-Channel-per-field state model (additive) for the graph runtime — an opt-in
-alternative to plain whole-state overwrite that gives individual state fields
-their own merge semantics and concurrent-write conflict detection.
-
-`ChannelState` implements `graph::reducer::StateReducer`, so a channel graph
-runs on the **unchanged executor**: the executor folds a superstep's branch
-results one at a time (`state = reducer.apply(state, update)` per branch's
-`ChannelUpdate`), and because `ChannelState` is itself a reducer, each `apply`
-dispatches every write in the update to the owning channel's `Channel::merge`.
-No executor changes were needed to add this model.
-
-## Channel kinds and merge rules
-
-- **Aggregate channels** — `Topic`, `BinaryAggregate`, `Delta`, `Messages`,
-  `Barrier`, `NamedBarrier`. `Channel::allows_concurrent` is `true`: when two
-  fan-out branches write the same channel in one superstep, both writes fold
-  in deterministic active-set index order.
-- **Overwrite channels** — `LastValue`, `Ephemeral`, `Untracked`.
-  `allows_concurrent` is `false`: a second same-step write to one of these
-  raises `TinyAgentsError::InvalidConcurrentUpdate`, because there is no
-  deterministic winner to pick.
-
-## Concurrent-write conflict detection
-
-Because the executor applies a step's updates as a contiguous batch, "same
-step" is tracked by stamping each `ChannelUpdate` with the node's `ctx.step`
-via `ChannelUpdate::at_step`. When updates are stamped, the reducer resets its
-per-step bookkeeping (and clears `Ephemeral` channels) whenever the step
-number advances.
-
-Unstamped updates are each treated as their own step — last-value writes
-always win, with no conflict detection and no ephemeral clearing — so
-existing whole-state habits (a node that writes without stamping) keep
-working and conflict detection is strictly **opt-in**.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- `Channel` (trait) — defines `merge` and `allows_concurrent` for one field's
-  storage/merge policy.
-- `LastValue<T>` — overwrite semantics; last write in a step wins, concurrent
-  writes conflict.
-- `Ephemeral<T>` — like `LastValue` but cleared at the start of every step
-  (useful for per-step scratch signals).
-- `Untracked<T>` — overwrite semantics, opts a field entirely out of conflict
-  detection even when stamped.
-- `Topic<T>` / `Messages<T>` — append-only aggregate channels; concurrent
-  writes in one step all append.
-- `BinaryAggregate<T>` — combines concurrent writes with a user-supplied
-  binary operator.
-- `Delta<T>` — accumulates numeric/structural deltas across concurrent
-  writes.
-- `Barrier` / `NamedBarrier` — join-coordination channels used to detect when
-  every expected fan-out branch has arrived.
-- `ChannelSet` — the map of named channels making up a graph's channel-typed
-  state.
-- `ChannelState` — wraps a `ChannelSet` and implements `StateReducer`; the
-  type a `CompiledGraph` is parameterized over when using the channel model.
-- `ChannelUpdate` — the per-branch write payload; `ChannelUpdate::at_step(n)`
-  opts it into step-stamped conflict detection.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | Type definitions and the channel/model overview. |
-| `mod.rs` | `Channel::merge` rules, `ChannelSet` map operations, the `ChannelState` ⇒ `StateReducer` bridge. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests (each channel kind's merge rule, conflict detection, step-stamping behavior). |
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- Conflict detection only fires for stamped updates (`ChannelUpdate::at_step`)
-  — a node handler that forgets to stamp silently loses the safety net and
-  falls back to last-write-wins.
-- `Ephemeral` channels are cleared on step advance, **not** on read — reading
-  one after the step in which it was written but before the next step still
-  sees the value.
-- Mixing channel-typed state with plain whole-state overwrite in the same
-  graph is possible (channels are just another reducer) but conflates two
-  conflict-detection models; prefer one model per graph for predictability.

-//! Channel-per-field state model (additive).
-//!

-//!
-//! ## Concurrent-write conflict detection
-//!
-//! When two fan-out branches write the *same* channel in *one* superstep, the
-//! merge must decide whether that is legal:
-//!
-//! - **Aggregate channels** ([`Topic`], [`BinaryAggregate`], [`Delta`],
-//!   [`Messages`], [`Barrier`], [`NamedBarrier`]) set
-//!   [`Channel::allows_concurrent`] to `true`; both writes fold in
-//!   deterministic active-set index order.
-//! - **Overwrite channels** ([`LastValue`], [`Ephemeral`], [`Untracked`])
-//!   return `false`; a second same-step write to such a channel raises

-//! The process-wide named reducer registry backing [`crate::BinaryAggregate`]
-//! channels.
-//!
-//! A [`crate::BinaryAggregate`] channel's merge rule is a closure, which is
-//! not serializable — but a durable [`crate::Checkpoint`] must be able to
-//! decode a `ChannelState` with no context beyond the bytes on disk (it
-//! implements plain `DeserializeOwned`, not a seeded deserialize). This
-//! registry is the bridge: a reducer is registered once under a stable name
-//! (the built-ins below, or a caller's own via
-//! [`crate::GraphBuilder::register_reducer`]), the channel's
-//! [`crate::Channel::config`] persists only that *name*, and decoding a
-//! `binary_aggregate` channel looks the closure back up by name — see
-//! [`crate::BinaryAggregate::named`] and `channel_from_config` in `mod.rs`.
-//!
-//! The registry is global (not scoped to one [`crate::GraphBuilder`]) because
-//! decoding happens with no builder in scope at all — only the checkpoint
-//! bytes. A name registered anywhere in the process is visible to every
-//! decode; decoding a name nobody has registered fails with
-//! `TinyAgentsError::Checkpoint("unknown reducer ...")` rather than silently
-//! losing the reducer's behavior.

-//! Channel-per-field state types.
-//!
-//! This module defines the *channel* state model described in
-//! `docs/modules/graph/state-channels.md`. It is an **additive** alternative to
-//! the monolithic `State` + [`crate::StateReducer`] path: instead of one
-//! whole-state value with one reducer, state is split into independently-named
-//! *channels*, each owning its own current value and its own binary merge rule.
-//!
-//! The model is built from four pieces:
-//!
-//! - [`Channel`]: the per-key merge policy (overwrite, aggregate, append, …).
-//! - [`ChannelSet`]: a named map of channels plus their current values.
-//! - [`ChannelUpdate`]: a batch of `(channel_name, value)` writes a node returns.
-//! - [`ChannelState`]: a concrete graph `State` wrapping a [`ChannelSet`] that
-//!   implements [`crate::StateReducer<ChannelState, ChannelUpdate>`], so a
-//!   channel graph is just `GraphBuilder<ChannelState, ChannelUpdate>` running on
-//!   the unchanged executor.
-//!
-//! Values are [`serde_json::Value`]-backed for generality so channels compose
-//! with checkpointing, export, and language-defined nodes without per-graph type
-//! parameters.

-
-/// A single named state channel: it owns the merge rule that folds an incoming
-/// update value into the channel's current value at a superstep boundary.
-///
-/// Channels are object-safe and value-typed ([`serde_json::Value`]) so a
-/// [`ChannelSet`] can hold a heterogeneous map of `Box<dyn Channel>`. Each
-/// channel decides:
-///
-/// - [`Channel::merge`] — how an incoming write combines with the current value.
-/// - [`Channel::allows_concurrent`] — whether two branches in the *same* step may
-///   both write this channel (aggregates: yes; last-value: no, see
-///   [`crate::TinyAgentsError::InvalidConcurrentUpdate`]).
-/// - [`Channel::is_ephemeral`] — whether the value is cleared at the start of the
-///   next step (one-shot channels).
-/// - [`Channel::is_tracked`] — whether the value appears in [`ChannelSet::snapshot`]
-///   and is considered part of durable state.

-# graph::checkpoint
-
-The `Checkpointer` trait and its backends — the durability layer that makes
-the recursive graph runtime resumable and time-travelable.
-
-In a recursive-language-model harness, runs nest: a graph node can run another
-compiled graph, which can run another, each producing its own state.
-Checkpointing snapshots every level of that tree at superstep boundaries and
-keys them by `thread_id` / `namespace` so a parent and its embedded subgraphs
-never collide (see `graph::subgraph`). Persisting committed state at each
-boundary is what lets a run be paused on an interrupt, resumed later, forked,
-or replayed for time-travel debugging.
-
-Checkpoints are written **at superstep boundaries only — never mid-node** —
-so resuming always reruns a node from its start. There is no partial-node
-durability; a node handler must be safe to re-run from scratch if the process
-crashes mid-execution.
-
-## Public surface
-
-### The trait
-
-`Checkpointer<State>` (async, `Send + Sync`):
-
-- `put(checkpoint) -> Result<CheckpointId>` — persists a checkpoint, returns
-  its id.
-- `get(thread_id, checkpoint_id: Option<&str>) -> Result<Option<Checkpoint<State>>>`
-  — loads a checkpoint; `None` id loads the latest for the thread.
-- A namespace-scoped variant of `get` restricts the lookup to checkpoints
-  whose stored namespace matches, which is what keeps a parent run and the
-  subgraphs it embeds — sharing a thread id but differing in namespace — from
-  loading each other's checkpoints on resume or inspection.
-- Additional methods for listing checkpoint history and pruning lineage (see
-  `mod.rs` for the full trait).
-
-### Backends
-
-- `DriverCheckpointer` (`drivers.rs`) — durable implementation over a
-  `tinystoragedrivers` `DocumentStore`, so the host's backend (SQLite, MongoDB,
-  memory) holds the checkpoints. The file and SQLite checkpointers were removed
-  in favour of it.
-- An in-memory backend is also available for tests (see `mod.rs`/`mod_tests.rs`);
-  suitable only for a single process's lifetime.
-
-### Types (`types.rs`)
-
-- `Checkpoint<State>` — the persisted record: committed `state`, `next_nodes`
-  (the pending activation set), `interrupts`, source, and lineage pointers.
-  `Checkpoint::to_metadata()` projects the listing-relevant fields into
-  `CheckpointMetadata` so a `StateSnapshot` (from `graph::compiled`) and
-  `Checkpointer::list` always agree on what a checkpoint "is."
-- `CheckpointTuple<State>` — a checkpoint plus its `config` and
-  `parent_config`, the shape returned by `get`/history lookups.
-- `CheckpointConfig` — addresses a checkpoint by `thread_id` (+ optional
-  `checkpoint_id`); `CheckpointConfig::latest(thread_id)` is the common case.
-- `CheckpointMetadata` — the compact, listing-facing view of a checkpoint.
-- `CheckpointSource` — why a checkpoint was written (superstep boundary,
-  interrupt, resumable-failure boundary, ...); round-trips through
-  `as_str()` / `parse()`.
-- `DurabilityMode` — how aggressively the executor checkpoints (e.g. every
-  boundary vs. only on interrupt/failure); set via
-  `CompiledGraph::with_durability`.
-- `PendingActivation` — a scheduled-but-not-yet-run node activation persisted
-  across a checkpoint boundary.
-- `BarrierArrivals` — tracks which parallel branches have arrived at a join
-  barrier, persisted so a resumed run doesn't re-run already-arrived branches.
-- `PendingWrite` — a reducer write buffered but not yet folded into committed
-  state at the point the checkpoint was taken.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | `Checkpoint`, `CheckpointTuple`, `CheckpointConfig`, `CheckpointMetadata`, `CheckpointSource`, `DurabilityMode`, `PendingActivation`, `BarrierArrivals`, `PendingWrite`. |
-| `mod.rs` | The `Checkpointer` trait and the in-memory backend. |
-| `drivers.rs` | `DriverCheckpointer` over a driver `DocumentStore`. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests (put/get round-trips, namespace scoping, history, pruning). |
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- Namespace scoping is load-bearing for subgraph isolation: a checkpointer
-  implementation that ignores namespace when a caller asks for it will let a
-  parent and a subgraph run collide on resume. Any new backend must honor the
-  namespace-scoped `get`/`list` contract.
-- `DriverCheckpointer` on a durable backend is safe across process
-  restarts; the in-memory backend is not — never use it where resumability
-  after a crash is required.
-- Checkpoint ids must be collision-free across process restarts (see
-  `graph::compiled`'s `next_checkpoint_id`, which delegates to
-  `harness::ids::new_checkpoint_id` rather than a process-local counter) or
-  lineage pruning and time-travel resume can corrupt.
-- `DurabilityMode` trades persistence frequency for write volume — a mode that
-  only checkpoints on interrupt/failure means a mid-run crash loses all
-  progress since the last such boundary, not just the current node.
-
-## `DriverCheckpointer` (`storage-drivers` feature)
-
-`DriverCheckpointer` stores checkpoints, pending writes and execution leases in
-a [tinystoragedrivers](https://github.com/tinyhumansai/tinystoragedrivers)
-`DocumentStore`. Hosts use it to put graph durability on whichever backend they
-opened, such as SQLite or MongoDB. The handle is bound to a tenant scope, so
-tenants that share a thread id still never see each other's checkpoints.
-
-It is the one checkpointer: every user shares `graph.checkpoints`,
-`graph.threads` and `graph.writes` and tells itself apart by a namespace
-(`DriverCheckpointer::with_namespace`, default `graph`; `delegation` and `flows`
-for the delegation graph and workflows). Leases live in `tsd.leases`, claimed
-through `Leases`, whose epoch is the write fence. See
-`docs/modules/graph/storage-schema.md`.
-
-It passes the same `testkit::conformance` contracts as the bundled backends:
-checkpointer, writes, lineage and concurrency.

-/// shape/schema mismatch or ambiguous/likely corruption.
-///
-/// `serde_json::Error::classify()` distinguishes `Category::Data` (the JSON
-/// parsed fine but didn't match the target type — a missing field, a renamed
-/// variant, a type change: exactly what a legacy or newer schema produces)
-/// from `Category::Syntax` / `Category::Eof` / `Category::Io` (the bytes
-/// themselves are malformed or truncated — a write torn by a crash, disk
-/// corruption, or a partial copy). Both backends previously tagged every
-/// failure here identically as `"decode …"`, and a caller (see
-/// `graph::delegation::run::is_incompatible_checkpoint_error`) that expired
-/// any checkpoint whose error mentioned "decode" would delete a corrupted
-/// record indistinguishably from an outdated one — silently discarding
-/// evidence of real storage corruption instead of surfacing it. This tag is
-/// the stable discriminator that lets the caller tell the two apart.
-///
-/// `backend` is the existing `"sqlite checkpointer" / "file checkpointer"`
-/// prefix; `what` names the field being decoded (e.g. `"record"`,
-/// `"next_nodes"`) with no leading `"decode "` — this function supplies that
-/// wording once, alongside the tag.
-///
-/// **Only `what == "record"` — the whole-`Checkpoint<State>` decode, where
-/// `State` is the one thing this module knows can legitimately evolve across
-/// a caller's schema versions — is eligible for `[schema]` at all.**
-/// `"namespace"`, `"next_nodes"`, `"header"` and `"write payload"` are
-/// checkpoint-internal engine metadata with no versioned shape of their own;
-/// a `Category::Data` failure decoding any of those is corruption by
-/// construction; classifying it as `[schema]` and pruning would have been
-/// simply wrong.
-///
-/// Even for `"record"`, `Category::Data` is a HEURISTIC, not a proof: this
-/// module is generic over `State` (see the module docs) and has no way to
-/// positively identify a specific caller's known-legacy shape from a byte
-/// stream alone — a decode failure produced by data corruption that happens
-/// to still be syntactically valid JSON (e.g. a `state.schema_version` field
-/// whose value was flipped from a number to a string) also classifies as
-/// `Category::Data`, indistinguishable at this layer from a genuine older
-/// schema. This is an accepted, bounded residual risk, not a claim of
-/// perfect precision: the worst case is an unnecessary fresh restart from
-/// `plan` for what was actually corruption, which is a strict improvement
-/// over the state before this classifier existed (100% of decode failures,
-/// corrupt or not, were pruned identically). Closing the remaining gap
-/// precisely would need the generic `Checkpointer` trait to expose the raw
-/// bytes on a failed decode so a caller could apply its OWN positive-shape
-/// check — a real API addition, tracked as follow-up rather than done here.

-/// # Why writes are recorded separately from the checkpoint
-///
-/// A superstep can fail *after* some of its tasks have already run. The
-/// boundary checkpoint records that those tasks completed, but without a record
-/// of what they wrote, a resume has no way to tell "this task already ran" from
-/// "this task has not run yet" — so it re-runs them, and any side effect they
-/// performed happens twice. Writes are therefore persisted per task through
-/// [`Checkpointer::put_writes`](crate::Checkpointer::put_writes) and read
-/// back into [`CheckpointTuple::pending_writes`], which is what resume consults
-/// to skip already-completed work.
-///
-/// # Identity
-///
-/// A write is addressed by `(thread_id, namespace, checkpoint_id, task_id,
-/// idx)`, mirroring the primary key LangGraph's SQL checkpointers use. Within
-/// one checkpoint the `(task_id, idx)` pair is unique: re-putting the same pair
-/// never produces a second row.
-///
-/// # Control-plane writes upsert; data writes are append-once
-///
-/// `idx >= 0` is an ordinary data write, emitted once per task in emission
-/// order. Re-putting it is **ignored** (insert-or-ignore), so a retried
-/// `put_writes` is idempotent.
-///
-/// `idx < 0` marks a control-plane write — resume values, errors, interrupts —
-/// which by construction there is at most one of per task and whose value
-/// legitimately changes on a retry. Re-putting it **replaces** the stored value
-/// (insert-or-replace). Use the `WRITES_IDX_*` constants rather than raw
-/// negative numbers.
-///
-/// # Back-compatibility
-///
-/// `task_id`, `idx` and `channel` carry `#[serde(default)]`, so checkpoint
-/// records written before the write protocol existed still deserialize (as an
-/// anonymous data write at index `0`).

-# graph::command
-
-The vocabulary a node handler returns to steer the durable executor: partial
-state updates, explicit routing, dynamic fanout, and human-in-the-loop
-interrupts.
-
-A node in the durable runtime no longer returns whole state directly. It
-returns a [`NodeResult`], and this module is where every shape that result can
-take is defined and constructed. `compiled::routing` consumes `Command::goto`
-targets when deciding the next superstep's active set; `compiled::executor`
-matches on `NodeResult::Interrupt` to pause a run and persist a resumable
-checkpoint.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- `NodeResult<Update>` — what a node handler returns: `Update` (merge through
-  the reducer), `Command` (update + explicit routing + optional resume value),
-  or `Interrupt` (pause for human input).
-- `Command<Update>` — combines an optional partial update with explicit `goto`
-  routing (one or more targets, overriding static/conditional edges) and an
-  optional resume value. Constructors: `Command::new`, `::goto`, `::send`,
-  `::update`, `::resume`; builder methods `with_update`, `with_goto`,
-  `with_sends`, `with_resume`.
-- `RouteTarget` — one routing target: `Node` (plain activation against shared
-  state) or `Send` (a fanout packet carrying a per-invocation argument).
-- `Send` — schedules a node for the next superstep with a custom `arg`
-  delivered via `NodeContext::send_arg`, independent of the shared committed
-  state; the map-reduce / search-fanout / per-item-scoring primitive. A single
-  `Command::send` call may target the same node many times, each with its own
-  `arg`.
-- `Interrupt` — a human-in-the-loop pause point (`id`, `node`, `payload`).
-  Requires a checkpointer: the executor persists a checkpoint at the
-  boundary and returns control to the caller; `CompiledGraph::resume` re-runs
-  the interrupted node with the resume value attached.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | `NodeResult`, `Command`, `RouteTarget`, `Send`, `Interrupt` definitions. |
-| `mod.rs` | Constructors and builder methods on those types; interrupt id generation. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests for command/interrupt construction. |
-
-## How it fits together
-
-- `builder` nodes are `NodeHandler<State, Update>` closures whose `Result`
-  future resolves to a `NodeResult<Update>` — this module is the return type
-  of every node in the graph.
-- `compiled::routing::route` resolves `Command::goto` targets (when a node
-  returned a command) ahead of static/conditional edges; `RouteTarget::Send`
-  entries become distinct activations of the same node, each carrying its own
-  argument, rather than being deduplicated like plain `Node` targets.
-- `compiled::executor` checkpoints and pauses a run on `NodeResult::Interrupt`,
-  and resumes it by feeding a `Command::resume` value back into the
-  interrupted node's `NodeContext::resume`.
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- An interrupt with no configured checkpointer (or no thread id) is rejected
-  before it can pause a run — see `compiled::routing::require_interrupt_durability`
-  — because an interrupt that cannot be persisted cannot be resumed.
-- `Send` targets are never deduplicated by node id the way plain `goto`
-  targets are; a node that wants to fan out N times to the same target must
-  emit N distinct `Send` packets, each with its own `arg`.

-# graph::compiled
-
-The superstep executor for the durable graph — `CompiledGraph<State, Update>`.
-
-This is the engine that makes the recursive runtime durable: it drives a
-compiled graph in checkpointed supersteps, and because a node handler may
-recurse into another compiled graph (a subgraph) or a sub-agent, every level
-of that recursion is observed through the same step/boundary/checkpoint
-discipline — child runs roll their state, events, and interrupts up through
-the parent's reducer and checkpointer.
-
-## Superstep loop
-
-Each step:
-
-1. Take the active node set.
-2. Run each active node against the committed state snapshot.
-3. Collect updates / commands / interrupts.
-4. Apply the reducer at the step boundary.
-5. Persist a checkpoint at the boundary (when a checkpointer is configured).
-   Under `DurabilityMode::Async` non-terminal boundary writes run on spawned
-   background tasks; a failed write fails the run at the next durability
-   boundary, and all in-flight writes are drained at the terminal / interrupt /
-   failure boundary so the run result reflects persistence failures (see
-   `docs/modules/graph/checkpointing.md`).
-6. Select the next active set.
-
-The loop stops when the active set empties, every branch reaches `END`, an
-interrupt pauses the run, or the recursion limit is hit (a deterministic
-`TinyAgentsError::RecursionLimit`).
-
-## Sequential vs. parallel steps
-
-By default execution is sequential within a step. When the graph is compiled
-with `GraphBuilder::with_parallel`, a step with more than one active node runs
-every branch concurrently via `futures::future::join_all`, but the data flow
-is identical to the sequential case: each branch reads the same committed
-snapshot (its own clone), and results fold into the reducer in deterministic
-active-set order at the step boundary — the merged state is reproducible
-regardless of which branch finishes first.
-
-Concurrency and interrupt semantics:
-
-- All active branches in a parallel step start before any is awaited, and all
-  are driven to completion (`join_all`) before the step boundary runs.
-- Branch results are folded in active-set index order — the reducer is the
-  fan-in/join, with lower-index branches' updates applied first.
-- The **lowest-index** branch that errors or interrupts is the step's terminal
-  outcome. Updates produced by lower-index successful branches are still
-  applied/persisted; an error persists a resumable failure boundary (below)
-  and aborts; an interrupt persists a checkpoint whose pending nodes are that
-  branch and every later active node.
-- Because branches run on cloned snapshots and never share mutable state,
-  concurrency is data-race free — the reducer alone resolves conflicting
-  writes, deterministically, by index.
-
-## Network resilience and resumable failures
-
-Two opt-in mechanisms make a run durable under transient failure and
-restartable after a hard one:
-
-- **Node retry** (`CompiledGraph::with_node_retry`) — a node whose handler
-  fails with a retryable error (`harness::retry::is_retryable` — the model/tool
-  transient class) is re-run from its start up to the policy's attempt cap,
-  emitting `GraphEvent::NodeRetryScheduled` and sleeping the opt-in backoff
-  between attempts. A single network blip is absorbed without touching the
-  run.
-- **Resumable failure** — when a handler fails beyond the retry budget (or the
-  error is non-retryable), the executor does not discard the step. On a
-  checkpointed thread it folds the branches that already completed into
-  committed state and persists a failure-boundary checkpoint whose
-  `next_nodes` schedule the failed node (and the not-yet-run tail) for a later
-  `CompiledGraph::resume` / `CompiledGraph::retry`, with the error and failed
-  node stamped into checkpoint metadata. The run reports `Failed` (carrying
-  that checkpoint id) and returns the error. A caller can restart it as-is, or
-  edit state with `CompiledGraph::update_state` before resuming to continue on
-  operator feedback. Without a checkpointer the run aborts immediately, as
-  before.
-
-## Public surface
-
-### Construction / configuration (builders, taken by value)
-
-`with_checkpointer`, `with_event_sink`, `with_durability`, `with_node_retry`,
-`with_namespace`, `with_recursion_policy`, `with_recursion_frames`,
-`with_recursion_node`, `with_event_journal`, `with_status_store`.
-
-Accessors: `graph_id()`, `name()`, `namespace()`.
-
-### Running
-
-- `run(state)` — fresh, un-checkpointed run (or checkpointed with an
-  auto-generated thread if a checkpointer is set).
-- `run_with_inputs(..)` / `run_with_thread(thread_id, state)` /
-  `run_with_thread_inputs(..)` — thread-scoped variants for checkpointed runs
-  and multi-entry-point graphs.
-- `resume(..)` / `resume_from(..)` — continue a checkpointed thread from its
-  last (or a specified) checkpoint, including past an interrupt or a resumable
-  failure boundary.
-- `retry(thread_id)` — re-run the failed node(s) recorded in the last
-  failure-boundary checkpoint.
-- `run_with_agent_binding(..)`, `run_with_thread_agent_binding(..)`,
-  `resume_with_agent_binding(..)`, `resume_from_with_agent_binding(..)`, and
-  `retry_with_agent_binding(..)` — execution-scoped variants for graphs that
-  reach a `SubAgentNode`. The supplied `AgentInvocationBinding` is forwarded
-  to resumed nodes and nested subgraphs, but is never stored on the reusable
-  graph or in a checkpoint; an unbound sub-agent continuation fails closed.
-
-### State inspection / time travel
-
-- `get_state(..)` / `get_state_history(..)` — read the current or historical
-  `StateSnapshot<State>` for a thread.
-- `update_state(..)` / `bulk_update_state(..)` — operator-driven state edits
-  between runs (e.g. before a `resume`/`retry`).
-- `fork_state(..)` — branch a new thread from an existing checkpoint.
-
-### Types
-
-- `CompiledGraph<State, Update>` — the executor itself.
-- `GraphExecution<State>` — the result of a run: final/paused state, status,
-  interrupts, run tree.
-- `GraphInput` — seeds a run at a specific node with a payload
-  (`GraphInput::start` / `::new` / `::node`).
-- `StateSnapshot<State>` — a point-in-time view (`values`, `tasks`,
-  `next_nodes`, `config`, `metadata`, `parent_config`, `pending_interrupts`)
-  returned by state-inspection calls, projected from a `CheckpointTuple` via
-  `Checkpoint::to_metadata` so it always matches what
-  `Checkpointer::list` reports.
-- `ResumeTarget` — selects which checkpoint/branch a resume targets.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | `CompiledGraph`, `GraphExecution`, `GraphInput`, `StateSnapshot`, `ResumeTarget`. |
-| `mod.rs` | Module wiring: shared helpers (`Activation`, checkpoint-id/snapshot projection, barrier persistence) and the builder/configuration `impl` (`with_*`, `emit`). |
-| `executor.rs` | The superstep loop and run/resume entry points (`run`, `resume`, `retry`, `execute`, `execute_run`, node retry, resumable-failure persistence). |
-| `state_api.rs` | State inspection / time travel (`get_state`, `get_state_history`, `update_state`, `bulk_update_state`, `fork_state`). |
-| `routing.rs` | Resolving a completed step's active set into the next superstep's activations (`route`, `route_completed`, interrupt-durability preconditions). |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests (sequential/parallel steps, retry, resumable failure, resume/fork, state history). |
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- Node retry and resumable failure both require a checkpointer to have
-  observable durability; without one, retries still happen in-process but a
-  hard failure aborts the run instead of leaving a resumable boundary.
-- Parallel-step determinism depends on branches never mutating shared state
-  outside their own snapshot clone — a node handler that reaches around the
-  snapshot (e.g. into shared interior-mutable state) breaks the "index order
-  resolves conflicts" guarantee.
-- `id` generation (`next_checkpoint_id`) is collision-free across process
-  restarts by delegating to `harness::ids::new_checkpoint_id`, not a
-  process-local counter — this matters for resumed threads restarted in a new
-  process.

-//! `NodeContext::durable_task`: per-task memoisation of a side-effecting
-//! sub-step, keyed by `(task_id, key)` in the checkpoint write ledger.
-//!
-//! The contract under test: a handler is re-run from its start after an
-//! interrupt/resume, a failure/retry, or an in-process node retry, but a
-//! side effect wrapped in `durable_task` happens **once** — the re-run gets
-//! the stored output back without polling the future — and distinct keys
-//! are memoised independently of each other.

-//! Public run/resume entry points and the superstep execution engine.
-//!
-//! Split out of `compiled/mod.rs`; see that module's doc comment for the
-//! full executor design (superstep loop, concurrency, and resumable-failure
-//! semantics). The superstep loop itself is a thin wire-up over three
-//! sibling modules: [`step`] runs a superstep's active node set and folds
-//! its results ([`step::StepRunner`]), [`boundary`] applies the reducer,
-//! routes, and persists a checkpoint at each of the three boundary shapes a
-//! step can end at ([`boundary::StepBoundary`]), and [`resume`] loads a
-//! checkpoint back into a fresh run. [`run_ctx::RunCtx`] carries the run
-//! identity and bookkeeping all three share.

-//! Superstep executor for the durable graph.
-//!
-//! This is the engine that makes the recursive runtime durable: it drives a
-//! [`CompiledGraph`] in checkpointed supersteps, and because a node handler may
-//! recurse into another compiled graph (a subgraph) or a sub-agent, every level
-//! of that recursion is observed through the same step/boundary/checkpoint
-//! discipline — child runs roll their state, events, and interrupts up through
-//! the parent's reducer and checkpointer.
-//!
-//! The executor runs in supersteps. Each step: take the active node set, run
-//! each active node against the committed state snapshot, collect updates /
-//! commands / interrupts, apply the reducer at the step boundary, persist a
-//! checkpoint at the boundary (when a checkpointer is configured), then select
-//! the next active set. The loop stops when the active set empties, every
-//! branch reaches [`END`], an interrupt pauses the run, or the recursion limit
-//! is hit (a deterministic [`TinyAgentsError::RecursionLimit`]).
-//!
-//! By default execution is sequential within a step. When the graph is compiled
-//! with [`crate::GraphBuilder::with_parallel`], a step with more than one
-//! active node runs every branch concurrently via
-//! [`futures::future::join_all`], yet the data flow — snapshot reads, boundary
-//! reducer application, boundary checkpointing — is identical: each branch reads
-//! the same committed snapshot (its own clone), and results are folded into the
-//! reducer in deterministic active-set order at the step boundary, so the merged
-//! state is reproducible regardless of which branch finishes first.
-//!
-//! ## Concurrency and interrupt semantics
-//!
-//! - All active branches in a parallel step start before any is awaited, and all
-//!   are driven to completion (`join_all`) before the step boundary runs.
-//! - Branch results are then folded in active-set index order. The reducer is
-//!   the fan-in / join: every branch's update is applied — **every** branch
-//!   that completed this step, not only the ones with a lower index than a
-//!   sibling that errored or interrupted (see the C1 fix in
-//!   `docs/runtime-comparison/code-review-graph.md`: a completed higher-index
-//!   branch is no longer discarded and silently re-run on resume).
-//! - The *lowest-index* branch that errors or interrupts is the step's terminal
-//!   outcome; any other branch that also errored/interrupted is still recorded
-//!   (not dropped, not mistaken for completed) but does not become *the*
-//!   surfaced failure/interrupt. Every branch that completed is folded into
-//!   committed state, but its *routing* is deferred rather than resolved
-//!   immediately (the C2 fix): resolving a completed branch's successor before
-//!   its stalled siblings are known would let that successor observe a state
-//!   missing whatever those siblings eventually write, which is exactly the
-//!   ordering bug an uninterrupted run never has. The deferred branches'
-//!   node ids are persisted (`Checkpoint::completed_tasks`) and carried
-//!   forward across however many times this step interrupts/fails and gets
-//!   resumed/retried; only once every branch of the step has completed does
-//!   the executor route them all together, in one call, against one
-//!   committed state — see `boundary::CompiledGraph::advance`'s
-//!   `carried_completed` handling. One caveat: a deferred branch's routing
-//!   is re-resolved via static/conditional edges only (an explicit
-//!   `Command::goto` it returned is not itself persisted across the
-//!   boundary — see `StepRun::completed`).
-//! - Because branches run on cloned snapshots and never share mutable state,
-//!   concurrency is data-race free; the reducer alone resolves conflicting
-//!   writes (deterministically, by index).
-//! - Sequential steps have their own cousin of C1: [`step::StepRunner::run_sequential`]
-//!   stops invoking further branches at the first error/interrupt, so those
-//!   not-yet-started siblings never appear in that step's raw results at
-//!   all. [`step::StepRunner::fold_step`] now folds them into `stalled`
-//!   anyway (by original active-set index), so a failure/interrupt boundary
-//!   records them as pending tasks (`Checkpoint::tasks`) alongside the
-//!   branch that stopped the step, instead of silently dropping them from
-//!   the checkpoint — a resumed/retried sequential run reaches the same
-//!   final state as an uninterrupted one.
-//!
-//! ## Network resilience and resumable failures
-//!
-//! Two opt-in mechanisms make a run durable under transient failure and
-//! restartable after a hard one:
-//!
-//! - **Node retry.** With
-//!   [`CompiledGraph::with_node_retry`], a node whose handler fails with a
-//!   [retryable][tinyagents_harness::retry::is_retryable] error (a model or tool
-//!   error — the transient class) is re-run from its start up to the policy's
-//!   attempt cap, emitting
-//!   [`GraphEvent::NodeRetryScheduled`]
-//!   and sleeping the opt-in backoff between attempts. A single network blip is
-//!   absorbed without touching the run.
-//! - **Resumable failure.** When a handler fails beyond the retry budget (or the
-//!   error is non-retryable), the executor does not discard the step. On a
-//!   checkpointed thread it folds the branches that already completed into
-//!   committed state and persists a failure-boundary checkpoint whose
-//!   `next_nodes` schedule the failed node (and the not-yet-run tail) for a
-//!   later [`CompiledGraph::resume`]/[`CompiledGraph::retry`], with the error
-//!   and failed node stamped into the checkpoint metadata. The run then reports
-//!   `Failed` (carrying that checkpoint id) and returns the error. A caller can
-//!   restart it as-is, or continue on operator feedback by editing state with
-//!   [`CompiledGraph::update_state`] before resuming. Without a checkpointer the
-//!   run aborts immediately, exactly as before.

-// instead. These tests instrument `State::clone()` itself to prove the

-// the count reflects the executor's own cloning rather than the
-// `add_node`/`Arc<State>` compatibility adapter's per-invocation clone.

-/// spawned on. Without this guard such a drop leaves the run's last written
-/// status stuck at `Running` forever, with nothing to signal that it will
-/// never make further progress.
-///
-/// Constructed armed by [`RunCtx::start`]; [`Self::disarm`] is called at the
-/// top of every one of `execute_run`'s terminal exit paths — success
-/// ([`super::executor::CompiledGraph::finish_run`]), an aborting error

-/// that reaches a real terminal state on its own never gets a spurious
-/// `Cancelled` overwrite from `Drop` racing (or following) that path.
-///
-/// # Best-effort guarantee
-///
-/// `Drop::drop` cannot `.await`, so this guard cannot synchronously flush
-/// in-flight [`AsyncCheckpointWrites`]. It instead spawns a detached
-/// background task (via [`tokio::runtime::Handle::try_current`], a no-op
-/// outside a tokio runtime) that persists a `Cancelled` [`GraphRunStatus`];
-/// this can still race a runtime shutdown that happens immediately after the
-/// drop, in which case even this best-effort write may not land. Any
-/// checkpoint write still in flight under `DurabilityMode::Async` is *not*
-/// separately re-awaited by this guard — but it is not abandoned either: a
-/// tokio `JoinHandle` being dropped only detaches it, it does not abort the
-/// task, so the underlying `checkpointer.put`/`put_writes` call keeps
-/// running to completion on its own regardless of whether `RunCtx` is still
-/// alive to track it. What this guard cannot restore is the tracker's
-/// ability to *observe* that write's outcome (the concern
-/// [`AsyncCheckpointWrites`]'s own contract documents) — a write that fails
-/// after the run future was dropped is only visible in the checkpointer
-/// backend's own logs, not through `GraphRunStatus.error`. The one concrete,
-/// testable contract this guard gives is: the run's stored status is never
-/// left at `Running` forever.

-//! Running one superstep's active node set, and folding the results.
-//!
-//! This is the *execution* half of a superstep, split from the *boundary*
-//! half (reducer apply, routing, checkpoint persist — see `boundary.rs`).
-//! [`StepRunner`] drives the active node set's handlers, sequentially or
-//! concurrently, and hands back a [`StepOutcome`] carrying every
-//! `(Activation, Result<NodeResult<Update>>)` pair it actually produced.
-//! [`StepRunner::fold_step`] then folds that outcome into a [`StepRun`].
-//!
-//! Running and folding are deliberately kept as separate steps (rather than
-//! folding inline as each branch completes, as the pre-split code did) so a
-//! change to the fold policy touches only `fold_step`. Per the C1/C2
-//! findings in `docs/runtime-comparison/code-review-graph.md`, `fold_step`
-//! now folds **every** `Ok` result regardless of its position in the active
-//! set: a parallel step always drives every branch to completion
-//! ([`StepRunner::run_parallel`]), so a higher-index branch that completed
-//! before a lower-index one interrupted or failed must not be discarded and
-//! re-run on resume. `fold_step` partitions the step's results into
-//! `completed` (every branch that produced an `Update`/`Command`, in
-//! original active-set-index order) and `stalled` (the branches that
-//! errored or interrupted, which become the boundary's `pending` set) —
-//! see [`StepRun`].

-# graph::dag
-
-Structural validation of a dependency DAG — duplicate ids, dangling edges, and
-cycles — over a borrowed node view, independent of any one caller's node
-shape or of the graph runtime.
-
-Multiple graph surfaces (task boards, plan steps, and host-defined workflows)
-keep re-deriving the same
-question: given nodes that each name the nodes they must run after, is the
-result a well-formed DAG? Rather than each caller reimplementing Kahn's
-algorithm against its own struct, this module takes a borrowed [`DagNode`]
-view that any caller can project its own type into for the duration of one
-validation call. It touches no graph runtime state and is usable before
-anything is compiled or executed.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- `DagNode<'a>` — a borrowed `id` plus the `depends_on` ids it names (edges
-  read as `depends_on -> id`: a node runs after everything it names).
-  `DagNode::new(id, depends_on)` builds one from an id and any iterator of
-  dependency ids.
-- `DagIssue` — a structural problem: `DuplicateNode { id }`,
-  `UnknownDependency { node, depends_on }`, or `Cycle` (a self-edge counts as
-  a cycle). Deliberately narrow: domain rules a host layers on top (e.g. "a
-  phase must name at least one agent") are not this module's concern.
-- `has_cycle(nodes) -> bool` — the cycle question alone, for a caller that
-  already validated ids/edges its own way.
-- `validate_dag(nodes) -> Vec<DagIssue>` — duplicates, dangling edges, and
-  cycles in one pass, returning every issue found (not just the first) so a
-  definition can be shown with all its problems at once. An empty result
-  means the input is a well-formed DAG.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | `DagNode`, `DagIssue`. |
-| `mod.rs` | `has_cycle`, `validate_dag` (Kahn's algorithm, O(V + E)). |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests (acyclic acceptance, cycles, self-edges, dangling edges, the duplicate-id false-cycle guard). |
-
-## Semantics worth knowing
-
-- **Edges pointing at unknown ids are ignored by the cycle check** and
-  reported separately as `DagIssue::UnknownDependency` — a dangling edge
-  cannot close a loop, and letting it participate would turn one mistake
-  into two errors.
-- **Duplicate ids never trip a false cycle.** The cycle graph is built from
-  exactly one declaration per id (first declaration wins); reachability is
-  compared against the unique-node count, not the input length.
-- **A self-edge is a cycle.** A host that wants to surface self-dependency as
-  its own diagnostic must check for it before calling.
-- A caller that wants to add dependency edges to a node id that already
-  exists must merge those edges into that node's single `DagNode`
-  declaration — a second `DagNode` with the same id has its edges silently
-  dropped by the dedupe (first declaration wins), so a real cycle it would
-  have introduced can go undetected. This is unreachable for a caller that
-  only ever mints fresh ids, but is a live footgun for one that revisits an
-  existing id.
-
-## How it fits together
-
-`graph::dag` has no dependency on the rest of `graph`; it is a leaf utility
-re-exported at the crate root for graph modules and hosts that need to project
-their own node types into `DagNode` views before compiling or scheduling them.

-# `graph::delegation`
-
-A multi-stage sub-agent delegation pipeline expressed as a durable state graph.
-
-```text
-  plan ─▶ execute ─▶ review ──approved / budget spent──▶ [approval] ─▶ finalize ─▶ END
-            ▲                   │
-            └──────revise───────┘
-```
-
-The `approval` node exists only when the run is human-gated
-(`DelegationConfig::require_review_approval`).
-
-## Why it is here
-
-Chaining sub-agents ad hoc gives you no revision budget, no resume after a
-crash, and no place to put a human in the loop. This module is that pipeline
-written once against the graph runtime, so the routing, the bounded revision
-loop, the checkpoint classification and the durable approval pause are one
-reviewed implementation rather than a per-host reinvention.
-
-## Public surface
-
-| Item | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `run_delegation` | Run to completion, return the terminal `DelegationState`. The convenience wrapper for the non-gated shape, where the graph never interrupts. |
-| `run_delegation_durable` | Run, reporting via `DelegationOutcome::pending` whether it finalized or parked on a human-approval interrupt. |
-| `run_or_resume_delegation` | Classify the thread's latest checkpoint, then resume / return / start fresh accordingly. |
-| `resume_delegation` | Deliver an approver's decision to a parked run. |
-| `deny_decision` | The canonical deny value, for resume-on-timeout. |
-| `delegation_graph_topology` | Structure-only export (nodes, edges, routing) for inspection. |
-
-## The stage worker is injected
-
-Every entry point takes a `run_stage` closure:
-
-```rust,ignore
-Fn(DelegationStage, DelegationState) -> impl Future<Output = Result<DelegationStageOutput, String>>
-```
-
-This module owns *when* a stage runs and *where its result routes*; it owns
-nothing about *how* a stage runs. A host passes a closure dispatching each
-`DelegationStage` to its own sub-agent runner; tests pass a deterministic mock,
-which is what makes the orchestration mechanics unit-testable without a model.
-
-The same reasoning applies to observability: `DelegationConfig::event_sink` is
-an optional host-supplied `GraphEventSink`. The module never reaches for a
-host-specific logger.
-
-## `DelegationState` is an on-disk format
-
-This is the constraint to read before editing anything in `types.rs`.
-
-A checkpoint written by one release is decoded by a later one. So the serde
-representation of `DelegationState` — field names, `#[serde(...)]` attributes,
-defaults, and the resulting JSON — is a compatibility contract with every
-installation that has a run in flight.
-
-`CURRENT_SCHEMA_VERSION` is what makes that contract enforceable rather than
-merely documented:
-
-- a fresh run stamps its state with the current version;
-- pre-versioned checkpoints decode to `0` via `#[serde(default)]`;
-- `run_or_resume_delegation` **expires** any checkpoint below the current
-  version instead of resuming or returning it.
-
-That last point closes a gap a decode failure alone cannot: a stale record whose
-fields still happen to decode (an empty `executions` list, say) is structurally
-readable but semantically wrong for the current graph, and would otherwise be
-resumed as if it were current.
-
-`mod_tests.rs` pins the exact serialized JSON of a fully-populated state, of the
-default state, and of a pre-versioned record. A field addition that drifts the
-shape fails those tests rather than reaching a user's disk unnoticed. Changing
-the shape deliberately means bumping `CURRENT_SCHEMA_VERSION` in the same
-change.
-
-## Bounds and failure handling
-
-- **Revision budget.** `max_revisions` caps reviewer-requested revisions; at the
-  cap the review is force-approved so a never-satisfied reviewer still
-  terminates.
-- **Recursion policy.** A `RecursionPolicy` bounds visits per node and total
-  steps as a backstop to the in-state counter — the loop terminates even if the
-  counter logic is wrong.
-- **Retry.** `max_attempts(1)` preserves single-attempt node semantics; the seam
-  is wired so raising it is a one-line change.
-- **Cancellation** is checked at each node boundary and routes to `finalize`,
-  so a cancelled run still produces a state rather than an error.
-- **Checkpoint read errors are split by kind.** A *decode* failure expires the
-  checkpoint and starts fresh; an *operational* failure (SQLite busy, I/O, a
-  poisoned lock) is propagated. Treating the second as the first would silently
-  discard valid durable work on a transient fault.
-
-## Durable pause vs. interactive pause
-
-The `approval` node is a **checkpointed graph interrupt**: the pause lives
-entirely in the checkpointer and survives a process restart, and only
-`resume_delegation` releases it. That is a durability mechanism for the pause —
-it grants no approval authority and bypasses no host security boundary. A host's
-own in-memory, TTL-bounded prompt for a live turn is a different mechanism and
-is unaffected by anything here.

-//! Multi-stage sub-agent delegation as a durable, resumable state graph.
-//!
-//! Where a single harness call drives *one* agent turn, this module composes
-//! several sub-agent stages into a checkpointed state machine — the graph-native
-//! alternative to ad-hoc sub-agent chaining:
-//!
-//! ```text
-//!   plan ─▶ execute ─▶ review ──approved/maxed──▶ finalize ─▶ END
-//!             ▲                   │
-//!             └─────revise────────┘
-//! ```
-//!
-//! It exercises most of the graph layer:
-//! - **conditional routing** — `review` returns a [`Command`](crate::Command)
-//!   routing to `execute` (revise) or `finalize` (done) based on the stage result;
-//! - **recursion bounds** — a [`RecursionPolicy`](crate::RecursionPolicy)
-//!   caps the `execute` ⇄ `review` loop as a backstop to the in-state
-//!   `revisions` counter;
-//! - **durable checkpoint/resume** — an optional
-//!   [`Checkpointer`](crate::Checkpointer) persists the typed
-//!   [`DelegationState`] at every super-step boundary, so a crashed or paused
-//!   run resumes from its last node;
-//! - **human-in-the-loop** — with [`DelegationConfig::require_review_approval`]
-//!   an approved review parks on a durable
-//!   [`Interrupt`](crate::Interrupt) that survives a process restart and
-//!   is released by [`resume_delegation`];
-//! - **cooperative cancellation** — a
-//!   [`CancellationToken`](tinyagents_harness::cancel::CancellationToken) short-circuits the pipeline
-//!   to `finalize` at the next node boundary.
-//!
-//! # The per-stage worker is injected
-//!
-//! [`run_delegation`] and friends take a `run_stage` closure, so this module owns
-//! the orchestration mechanics and nothing about *how* a stage runs. A host
-//! passes a closure dispatching each [`DelegationStage`] to its own sub-agent
-//! runner; tests pass a deterministic mock.
-//!
-//! # [`DelegationState`] is an on-disk format
-//!
-//! Checkpointed state is read back by a later process — potentially a later
-//! release. [`CURRENT_SCHEMA_VERSION`] stamps fresh runs and
-//! [`run_or_resume_delegation`] expires any checkpoint below it rather than
-//! misreading a stale shape. Changing a field name, a `#[serde(...)]` attribute,
-//! or a default breaks resume for existing installations; `test.rs` pins the
-//! exact serialized JSON so such a change fails loudly. See `README.md`.
-//!
-//! # Entry points
-//!
-//! - [`run_delegation`] — run to completion, return the terminal state. The
-//!   convenience wrapper for the non-gated shape.
-//! - [`run_delegation_durable`] — run, reporting whether it finalized or parked
-//!   on a human-approval interrupt.
-//! - [`run_or_resume_delegation`] — resume a thread's last checkpoint boundary
-//!   when one is live and compatible, else start fresh.
-//! - [`resume_delegation`] — deliver an approver's decision to a parked run.
-//! - [`delegation_graph_topology`] — structure-only export for inspection.

-# graph::export
-
-Graph export and visualization — the introspection surface that lets a
-recursive harness read back the shape of any graph, including one a model
-authored or assembled at runtime.
-
-Graphs in this runtime can be built by hand (`GraphBuilder`) or assembled at
-runtime. This module reduces both sources to one inspectable, behavior-free
-description — `GraphTopology` — so a graph can be diffed, snapshotted in
-tests, or drawn for a human reviewing what an agent just constructed. It
-implements the spec's "graph serialization to JSON" and "Mermaid export"
-future features (see `docs/modules/graph/visualization-testkit.md`).
-
-## Where topology comes from
-
-`GraphTopology` can be extracted from two sources, both yielding the same
-shape so visualization and test snapshots share one truth:
-
-- `crate::CompiledGraph::topology` — a validated, frozen graph.
-- `crate::GraphBuilder::topology` — a graph still under construction (entry
-  may be unresolved).
-
-None of these expose runnable behavior (handler/router closures, reducers);
-only structure is captured, which is what makes `GraphTopology` cheap to
-clone, `serde`-serializable, and safe to compare across builds.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- `GraphTopology` — the top-level, `serde`-serializable structural
-  description of a graph: nodes, edges, conditional routes, barrier edges,
-  channel bindings, a policy summary, and a validation report. All
-  collections are stored in stable sorted order so exports are
-  deterministic regardless of `HashMap` iteration order.
-- `NodeInfo` — one node's structural metadata (kind, routing flags, `goto`
-  hints, metadata, derived `NodePolicySummary`).
-- `EdgeInfo` / `ConditionalEdgeInfo` / `RouteInfo` — direct and
-  router-resolved edges.
-- `WaitingEdgeInfo` — a barrier/fan-in join: `target` activates only once
-  every node in `predecessors` has completed.
-- `ChannelInfo` — a state-channel-to-reducer binding (empty for compiled
-  whole-state graphs).
-- `GraphPolicySummary` / `NodePolicySummary` — derived, graph- and
-  node-level execution policy summaries computed from the topology itself.
-- `ValidationReport` — structural errors (dangling entry/edge/route/barrier
-  targets) and non-fatal warnings (unreachable or dead-end nodes) computed
-  over a topology.
-- `to_json` / `from_json` — pretty JSON round-trip for `GraphTopology`.
-- `to_mermaid` — deterministic [Mermaid](https://mermaid.js.org/) `flowchart`
-  rendering of a topology.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | The `GraphTopology` shape and its constituent structs; no behavior, `serde`-only. |
-| `mod.rs` | Topology extraction (`build_topology`, `node_parts`), structural `validate`ation, JSON round-trip, and Mermaid rendering. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests covering topology extraction from built/compiled graphs, JSON round-tripping, Mermaid output, and validation errors/warnings. |
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- A `GraphTopology` never carries runnable behavior — no handler closures,
-  router closures, or reducers. Anything derived from a topology (JSON,
-  Mermaid, diffs) is therefore safe to log, snapshot in tests, or show to an
-  end user without leaking implementation closures.
-- All topology collections are sorted before being handed back
-  (`build_topology` normalizes ordering), so two extractions of the same
-  logical graph produce byte-identical JSON and Mermaid output — this is
-  what makes snapshot testing viable.
-- `ValidationReport` is computed structurally from the topology itself, not
-  re-derived from the live graph; a topology extracted from a `CompiledGraph`
-  is typically clean (compilation already validated it), while a topology
-  extracted from an in-progress `GraphBuilder` may surface real
-  in-progress issues (e.g. an unresolved entry).
-- `START`/`END` are virtual boundaries and are never treated as undeclared
-  nodes by `validate`, even though they don't appear in `GraphTopology::nodes`.

-//! Graph export and visualization — the introspection surface that lets a
-//! recursive harness read back the shape of any graph, including ones a model
-//! authored or assembled at runtime.
-//!
-//! Because graphs in this runtime can be built by hand or assembled at runtime,
-//! it matters that both reduce to one inspectable description. Export captures that
-//! description as a behavior-free [`GraphTopology`] — never the runnable
-//! handler/router closures — so a graph can be diffed, snapshotted in tests, or
-//! drawn for a human reviewing what an agent just constructed.
-//!
-//! This module turns a graph's structure into portable artifacts: a
-//! `serde`-serializable [`GraphTopology`], a pretty JSON document, and a
-//! deterministic [Mermaid](https://mermaid.js.org/) `flowchart`. It implements
-//! the spec's "graph serialization to JSON" and "Mermaid export" future
-//! features (see `docs/modules/graph/visualization-testkit.md`).
-//!
-//! Topology can be extracted from two sources, both yielding the same
-//! [`GraphTopology`] shape so visualization and test snapshots share one truth:
-//!
-//! - [`crate::CompiledGraph::topology`] — a validated, frozen graph.
-//! - [`crate::GraphBuilder::topology`] — a graph still under
-//!   construction (entry may be unresolved).
-//!
-//! None of these expose runnable behavior (handler/router closures, reducers);
-//! only structure is captured.

-# graph::observability
-
-Durable observability for the graph runtime — journals, status stores, and
-the journaling event sink.
-
-The live `graph::stream` layer emits transient `GraphEvent`s into an
-in-process `GraphEventSink`. This module makes that history **durable and
-correlatable** so a UI, supervisor, or test can reconstruct a recursive graph
-run tree after the fact.
-
-`CompiledGraph` wires into this module through builder-style
-`with_status_store` and `with_event_journal`; both are opt-in and default off
-so existing runs are unchanged.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- `GraphObservation` — a durable envelope pairing a `GraphEvent` with its run
-  lineage (`run_id` / `parent_run_id` / `root_run_id`), `graph_id`,
-  `checkpoint_id`, subgraph `namespace`, `step`, `offset`, and timestamp. This
-  is the unit everything else in the module is built from.
-- `GraphEventJournal` (trait) — an append-only, offset-addressable journal of
-  observations.
-  - `InMemoryGraphEventJournal` — in-process implementation for tests.
-  - `StoreGraphEventJournal<A>` — store-backed implementation; stream key is
-    the run id, so a `harness::store::AppendStore` durably persists a run's
-    observations.
-- `GraphStatusStore` (trait) — a compact "what is running now?" surface over
-  `graph::GraphRunStatus`.
-  - `InMemoryGraphStatusStore` — in-process implementation with a
-    `thread_id → run ids` index so `list_by_thread` is proportional to that
-    thread's runs. Unbounded by default; `with_max_runs(n)` caps retained
-    runs, evicting the oldest terminal run first (oldest live run when none
-    is terminal).
-- `JournalGraphSink` — a `GraphEventSink` that wraps each emitted event into a
-  `GraphObservation` and appends it to a journal, optionally also forwarding
-  to a live `inner` sink (`with_lineage`, `with_thread`, `with_namespace`,
-  `with_inner` builders).
-- `GraphLatencyMetrics` — per-step/per-node timing rollups derived from a
-  run's observations (`from_observations`, `average_step_ms`,
-  `average_node_ms`).
-- `GraphHealthSummary` — per-node success/failure counts derived from
-  observations — node-level **tool health** telemetry (`from_observations`,
-  `from_status`).
-- `GraphLangfuseExporter` (`langfuse/`) — exports a run's observations to
-  Langfuse, turning supersteps and nodes into timed spans (failures promoted
-  to `ERROR`) and attaching the health summary to the trace. It emits a
-  structural graph-run span (`{trace}:run:{run_id}`) that steps, subgraphs, and
-  point events nest under. It shares the harness `LangfuseClient` transport and
-  defaults its `traceId` to the run's `root_run_id`; because the graph-run span
-  uses the same id scheme the harness exporter parents its agent run spans to,
-  a graph run and the agent/tool runs its nodes spawn nest into one trace tree.
-  `send_observations_otlp` / `build_otlp_requests` export the same trace to
-  Langfuse v4 over OTLP (trace attributes on every span, deterministic span
-  ids); the batch methods remain for legacy-mode deployments.
-
-## Persistence bridge
-
-`JournalGraphSink` bridges the synchronous `GraphEventSink::emit` hook to the
-async journal API through a background `AppendWorker`: `emit` hands the
-observation to a bounded channel drained on a dedicated thread, so it never
-blocks the executor on I/O. Persistence is **best-effort**: a full queue drops
-(and counts) the overflow, backend errors are counted and reported through
-`tracing` (rate-limited to one report per failure run plus a reminder every five
-minutes — see the harness `observability` README for the full error policy)
-rather than propagated, and neither aborts the run. The executor calls
-`GraphEventSink::flush`
-after the terminal run event (and callers can call it directly) to block until
-the durable log has caught up. Do not rely on the sink for delivery guarantees
-stronger than "usually persisted, never run-blocking."
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | Every public type: `GraphObservation`, journal/status-store traits and in-memory impls, `JournalGraphSink`, latency/health rollups. |
-| `mod.rs` | Behavioral code: rollup computation, journal/store/sink impls. |
-| `langfuse/` | `GraphLangfuseExporter` and its span-construction logic. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests (journal round-trips, sink lineage, latency/health rollups). |
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- `StoreGraphEventJournal` keys the stream by run id; reusing a run id across

-//! Langfuse ingestion exporter for durable graph observations.
-//!
-//! Where [`tinyagents_harness::observability::LangfuseClient`] exports an *agent*
-//! run's observations (model generations, tool calls), this exporter turns a
-//! *graph* run's durable [`GraphObservation`] stream into a Langfuse trace: each
-//! superstep and node handler becomes a timed span, node/subgraph failures are
-//! promoted to `ERROR` level, and per-node **health telemetry** rides along on
-//! the trace metadata.
-//!
-//! # Unified traces across the graph and its agents
-//!
-//! Graph nodes frequently delegate to agents and tools (see
-//! [`crate::SubAgentNode`]). Those child agent runs share the graph run's
-//! `root_run_id`, and both exporters default their Langfuse `traceId` to that
-//! root run id. Sending a graph run's observations with this exporter **and**
-//! the child agent runs' observations with the harness
-//! [`LangfuseClient`](tinyagents_harness::observability::LangfuseClient) therefore
-//! lands every graph step, node, model generation, and tool call under one
-//! Langfuse trace — full end-to-end telemetry including tool health.
-//!
-//! # Langfuse v4
-//!
-//! Langfuse v4 ingests traces only over OTLP. [`GraphLangfuseExporter::send_observations_otlp`]
-//! converts the batch with the harness `trace_export::ingestion_otlp`
-//! projection, which copies trace-level attributes onto every span and keeps
-//! the deterministic observation ids as span ids, so the unified-trace
-//! nesting above holds on v4 too. The batch methods remain for inspection and
-//! for Langfuse deployments still on the legacy path.
-//!
-//! The exporter is pull-based and best-effort by construction: build the batch
-//! from a completed (or in-progress) observation slice read back from a
-//! [`GraphEventJournal`](crate::GraphEventJournal), then send it. It does
-//! not sit on the hot path of graph execution.

-//! Durable observability for the graph runtime — journals, status stores, and
-//! the journaling event sink.
-//!
-//! The live [`crate::stream`] layer emits transient [`GraphEvent`]s into
-//! an in-process [`GraphEventSink`]. This module makes that history **durable
-//! and correlatable** so a UI, supervisor, or test can reconstruct a recursive
-//! graph run tree after the fact:
-//!
-//! - [`GraphObservation`] — a durable envelope pairing an event with its run
-//!   lineage (`run_id` / `parent_run_id` / `root_run_id`), `graph_id`,
-//!   `checkpoint_id`, subgraph `namespace`, `step`, `offset`, and timestamp.
-//! - [`GraphEventJournal`] — an append-only, offset-addressable journal of
-//!   observations, with an [`InMemoryGraphEventJournal`] and a store-backed
-//!   [`StoreGraphEventJournal`] (stream key = run id).
-//! - [`GraphStatusStore`] — a compact "what is running now?" surface over
-//!   [`crate::GraphRunStatus`], with an [`InMemoryGraphStatusStore`].
-//! - [`JournalGraphSink`] — a [`GraphEventSink`] that wraps each emitted event
-//!   into a [`GraphObservation`] and appends it to a journal, optionally also
-//!   forwarding to a live `inner` sink.
-//! - [`GraphLatencyMetrics`] / [`GraphHealthSummary`] — rollups derived from a
-//!   run's observations: per-step/per-node timings, and per-node
-//!   success/failure counts (node-level **tool health** telemetry).
-//! - [`GraphLangfuseExporter`] — exports a run's observations to Langfuse,
-//!   turning supersteps and nodes into timed spans (failures promoted to
-//!   `ERROR`) and attaching the health summary to the trace. It shares the
-//!   harness [`LangfuseClient`](tinyagents_harness::observability::LangfuseClient)
-//!   transport and defaults its `traceId` to the run's `root_run_id`, so a
-//!   graph run and the agent/tool runs its nodes spawn land under one trace.
-//!
-//! [`CompiledGraph`](crate::CompiledGraph) can be wired to write to a
-//! status store and a journal through its builder-style
-//! [`with_status_store`](crate::CompiledGraph::with_status_store) and
-//! [`with_event_journal`](crate::CompiledGraph::with_event_journal)
-//! methods; both are opt-in and default off so existing runs are unchanged.
-//!
-//! The journaling sink bridges the synchronous [`GraphEventSink::emit`] hook to
-//! the async journal API through a background drain (an
-//! [`AppendWorker`](tinyagents_harness::observability)): `emit` never blocks the
-//! executor on I/O and persistence is best-effort (a full bounded queue drops
-//! rather than stalls; backend errors are reported, not propagated). The
-//! executor calls [`GraphEventSink::flush`] after the terminal run event so a
-//! caller reading the journal right after the run returns sees a complete log.

-# graph::parallel
-
-Ordered, bounded-concurrency parallel map/reduce with a configurable failure
-policy, plus (in `claims/`) the shared-workspace claim arbitration that
-decides when fanned-out workers are safe to run concurrently at all.
-
-Graph `Send` fanout is the low-level primitive for parallel supersteps, but
-callers frequently want a *reusable* "run these N items concurrently and
-reduce the results" helper independent of the graph executor: deterministic
-input-order results, a concurrency cap, per-item success/failure isolation,
-and a policy for what to do when some items fail (fail-fast, collect-all,
-quorum, best-effort). That is what [`map_reduce`] provides.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- `map_reduce(items, options, f) -> Result<ParallelOutcome<T>>` — runs `f`
-  over `items` with bounded concurrency (`ParallelOptions::max_concurrency`,
-  `0` = unbounded), collecting per-item outcomes in **input order** regardless
-  of completion order, and applying `options.failure_policy`.
-- `ParallelOptions` — builder-style options: `with_max_concurrency`,
-  `with_failure_policy`, `with_item_timeout`, `with_total_timeout`,
-  `with_cancellation`.
-- `FailurePolicy` — `FailFast` (return the first input-order error, cancel the
-  rest), `CollectAll` (default; always `Ok`, per-item outcomes), `Quorum(n)`
-  (error unless at least `n` items succeed), `BestEffort` (always `Ok`, keep
-  only successes).
-- `ItemOutcome<T>` / `ParallelOutcome<T>` — per-item and aggregate results,
-  with `success_count`/`failure_count`/`successes`/`into_successes` helpers.
-- `claims` (re-exported): `WorkspaceClaim`, `DispatchPlan`, `DispatchMode`,
-  `ClaimConflict`, `ClaimPathError`, `parse_relative_claim_paths`,
-  `paths_overlap`, `writes_shared_workspace`,
-  `plan_shared_workspace_dispatch` — see `claims/README.md`.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | `FailurePolicy`, `ParallelOptions`, `ItemOutcome<T>`, `ParallelOutcome<T>`. |
-| `mod.rs` | `map_reduce`: the bounded-concurrency, input-order-preserving driver. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests (ordering under out-of-order completion, each failure policy, timeouts, cancellation). |
-| `claims/` | Shared-workspace claim arbitration (own `README.md`). |
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- `map_reduce` re-orders by input index after collection; it does **not**
-  stream partial results — callers needing incremental output should not use
-  this helper.
-- `FailFast` cancels remaining in-flight work by dropping the underlying
-  stream once every item with a smaller input index has resolved, not merely
-  on the first error observed — see the `fail_fast_error` bookkeeping in
-  `mod.rs` for why the first-completed error is not necessarily the one
-  returned.
-- `item_timeout` and `total_timeout` are independent: an item exceeding
-  `item_timeout` becomes a per-item failure handled by `FailurePolicy`; the
-  whole call exceeding `total_timeout` aborts unconditionally with
-  `TinyAgentsError::Timeout`, even under `CollectAll`/`BestEffort`.
-
-## Relation to neighbours
-
-`map_reduce` answers "run these N items concurrently"; `claims::plan_shared_workspace_dispatch`
-(see `claims/README.md`) answers the orthogonal question of whether running
-fanned-out workers concurrently is *safe* against a shared filesystem root.
-Neither module depends on the other at the type level — a caller composes
-them: plan dispatch first, then drive the resulting parallel/serial groups
-through `map_reduce` (or an equivalent scheduler).

-# graph::parallel::claims
-
-Shared-workspace claim arbitration for parallel agent fan-out — a decision
-module with **no I/O and no scheduling**: given a set of `WorkspaceClaim`s it
-returns a `DispatchPlan` saying which workers may run concurrently, which must
-be serialized, and which cannot be scheduled at all.
-
-`parallel::map_reduce` answers "run these N items with bounded concurrency."
-It cannot answer whether running them concurrently is *safe*. When fanned-out
-workers share one filesystem root, two of them mutating the same file at the
-same time corrupts it silently — there is no error, just a plausible-looking
-result built on a torn tree. This module owns that decision, and only that
-decision.
-
-## The rule
-
-A worker is safe to run in parallel when it either has its own root
-(`isolated`) or never writes (`!writes`). A worker that writes a *shared* root
-must declare the paths it owns; it is then serialized, and its claim is
-checked against every claim already granted. Claims are granted in **input
-order, first-writer-wins**, which makes the plan a pure function of the input
-regardless of which worker happens to finish first — the same request always
-yields the same rejection.
-
-## What stays with the caller
-
-The crate reports a `ClaimConflict` as data; it never decides what a host does
-about one. Whether an unbounded write is a hard rejection or a warning, and
-what sentence the user reads, are product decisions. Likewise the syntax a
-claim arrives in: `parse_relative_claim_paths` takes the *body* of a claim
-list, not whatever prefix or key a host wraps it in.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- `WorkspaceClaim` — one worker's declared relationship to the shared
-  workspace (`isolated`, `read_only`, `writing` constructors).
-- `plan_shared_workspace_dispatch(claims) -> DispatchPlan` — the planner.
-- `DispatchPlan` — `modes` (index-aligned `Option<DispatchMode>`, `None` =
-  rejected) plus `conflicts` (index-keyed rejections); `has_serial_work`,
-  `parallel_indices`, `serial_indices`.
-- `DispatchMode` — `Parallel` / `Serial`.
-- `ClaimConflict` — `UnboundedWrite` (writer with no declared paths) /
-  `Overlap` (claim collides with an earlier one); `worker_id()` accessor.
-- `ClaimPathError` — `Absolute` / `Escaping`, returned by
-  `parse_relative_claim_paths`.
-- `parse_relative_claim_paths(spec) -> Result<Vec<PathBuf>, ClaimPathError>` —
-  parses a comma/newline-separated, optionally bulleted claim list into safe,

-## Operational constraints
-
-- What a host *does* with a `ClaimConflict` (hard rejection vs. warning, and
-  what a user reads) is a product decision this crate deliberately does not
-  make — it only reports the conflict as data.
-- `parse_relative_claim_paths` rejects absolute paths and anything containing
-  `..` or a platform path prefix, because either would let a claim reach
-  outside the shared root it is meant to partition. This is a security
-  boundary, not a convenience check — do not bypass it by constructing
-  `WorkspaceClaim::writing` paths from unvalidated input.
-- Claim order matters: `plan_shared_workspace_dispatch` grants first-writer-
-  wins in the order `claims` is given, so callers that need deterministic,
-  reproducible plans must pass claims in a stable order.
-- This module performs no I/O and spawns nothing; it is pure decision logic
-  the caller (e.g. `parallel::map_reduce`) uses to decide dispatch, not an
-  executor.
-
-## Relation to neighbours
-
-Sits alongside `parallel::map_reduce` (parent module) as the "is this safe?"
-half of parallel fan-out; `map_reduce` handles "run it," this module handles
-"may it run concurrently." Consumed by hosts that fan out agent/tool workers
-over a shared filesystem root before dispatching them through `map_reduce` or
-an equivalent scheduler.

-//! Shared-workspace claim arbitration for parallel agent fan-out.
-//!
-//! [`map_reduce`](super::map_reduce) answers "run these N items with bounded
-//! concurrency". It cannot answer whether running them concurrently is *safe*.
-//! When fanned-out workers share one filesystem root, two of them mutating the
-//! same file at the same time corrupts it silently — there is no error, just a
-//! plausible-looking result built on a torn tree.
-//!
-//! This module owns that decision, and only that decision. Given a set of
-//! [`WorkspaceClaim`]s it returns a [`DispatchPlan`] saying which workers may
-//! run concurrently, which must be serialized, and which cannot be scheduled at
-//! all. It performs no I/O, spawns nothing, and never renders a message.
-//!
-//! # The rule
-//!
-//! A worker is safe to run in parallel when it either has its own root
-//! (`isolated`) or never writes (`!writes`). A worker that writes a *shared*
-//! root must declare the paths it owns; it is then serialized, and its claim is
-//! checked against every claim already granted.
-//!
-//! Claims are granted in **input order, first-writer-wins**. That ordering is
-//! load-bearing: it makes the plan a pure function of the input, independent of
-//! how quickly any worker happens to finish, so the same request always yields
-//! the same rejection.
-//!
-//! # What stays with the caller
-//!
-//! The crate reports a [`ClaimConflict`] as data; it never decides what a host
-//! does about one. Whether an unbounded write is a hard rejection or a warning,
-//! and what sentence the user reads, are product decisions. Likewise the syntax
-//! a claim arrives in: [`parse_relative_claim_paths`] takes the *body* of a
-//! claim list, not whatever prefix or key a host wraps it in.

-//! Ordered, bounded-concurrency parallel map/reduce with a configurable failure
-//! policy.
-//!
-//! Graph `Send` fanout is the low-level primitive for parallel supersteps, but
-//! callers frequently want a *reusable* "run these N items concurrently and
-//! reduce the results" helper with deterministic input-order results, a
-//! concurrency cap, per-item success/failure isolation, and a policy for what to
-//! do when some items fail (fail-fast, collect-all, quorum, best-effort). That
-//! is what [`map_reduce`] provides, independent of the graph executor.
-//!
-//! Results are always returned in **input order** even though items complete out
-//! of order: concurrency is driven by
-//! [`buffer_unordered`](futures::stream::StreamExt::buffer_unordered), which
-//! yields items as they finish, and each future carries its input index so the
-//! completed results are re-sorted into input-order slots before being returned.

-# graph::recursion
-
-Recursion policy and depth tracking: the bound-and-observe contract for
-nested graph/subgraph/sub-agent recursion.
-
-The graph runtime allows recursion — a graph can embed itself as a subgraph, a
-subgraph can call back into its parent, an agent node can call another agent
-that re-enters the same graph, a router can loop nodes until state converges,
-and a `Send` fanout can schedule many recursive child tasks — but only under
-explicit, enforced limits. This module is that contract; `compiled::executor`
-is the sole enforcer, building one `RecursionStack` per run, pushing/popping
-frames around every nested call, and stamping the live stack into checkpoint
-metadata and `GraphEvent::RecursionDepthChanged`.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- `RecursionFrame` — one level of the run tree: `graph_id`, `node_id` (the
-  hosting node, `None` for a root frame), `run_id`, `task_id`, `namespace`,
-  `depth`, and `parent` (the enclosing frame's run id). Serialized into
-  checkpoint metadata so a UI can render nested runs without replaying event
-  logs.
-- `RecursionPolicy` — the configured caps, tracked independently:
-  `max_depth` (run-tree depth, default 25), `max_visits_per_node` (optional
-  cap on activations of one node in a run, default unbounded),
-  `max_total_steps` (supersteps per run, default 1000). `Default` gives the
-  conservative defaults above.
-- `RecursionStack` — the live frame stack for one executing run, paired with
-  the policy that bounds it:
-  - `new(policy)` / `with_frames(frames, policy)` (the latter seeds inherited
-    parent frames for a subgraph/sub-agent child run).
-  - `push`/`pop` — symmetric frame push/pop; `push` enforces `max_depth`
-    (`TinyAgentsError::SubAgentDepth`) and leaves the frame unpushed on
-    failure.
-  - `depth()` / `frames()` — current depth and the frame list, root-first.
-  - `check_total_steps(steps)` — enforces `max_total_steps`
-    (`TinyAgentsError::RecursionLimit`).
-  - `record_node_visit(counts, node)` — increments and enforces
-    `max_visits_per_node` (`TinyAgentsError::NodeVisitLimit`) when configured.
-- `ChildRun` — a reference to a child run spawned from a subgraph/sub-agent
-  node: `node`, `graph_id`, `run_id`, `root_run_id`, and rolled-up `usage`
-  (only populated for sub-agent children; subgraph children track usage
-  through their own model calls).
-- `ChildRunSink` — a thread-safe, per-run collector the executor hands to node
-  contexts so a subgraph/sub-agent node can report the `ChildRun` it spawned;
-  `record`/`drain` (drained once per superstep boundary).
-- `RunTree` — a flat, after-the-fact parent/child lineage view derived from a
-  completed run: `run_id`, `root_run_id`, `parent_run_id`, `children`;
-  `is_root()` reports whether `parent_run_id` is `None`. The run-id
-  counterpart to the live `RecursionStack`.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | All type definitions and their `impl` blocks. |
-| `mod.rs` | Module doc only (re-exports; no additional behavior). |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests for the stack contract and its enforcement inside the executor. |
-
-## How it fits together
-
-- `builder::types::GraphBuilder`/`compiled::types::CompiledGraph` carry
-  `recursion_policy`, `recursion_frames` (inherited from an enclosing run),
-  and `recursion_node` (the hosting node when embedded); `subgraph` and
-  `subagent_node` are what seed `recursion_frames` so a nested run extends the
-  parent's tree instead of starting fresh.
-- `compiled::executor` enforces the three caps with distinct errors
-  (`SubAgentDepth`, `NodeVisitLimit`, `RecursionLimit`), records the current
-  stack into checkpoint metadata under a `recursion` array, and emits
-  `GraphEvent::RecursionDepthChanged` on depth changes.
-- `compiled::types::GraphExecution::run_tree()` builds a `RunTree` from the
-  run's own ids plus its accumulated `child_runs` — the completed-run
-  counterpart to the live `RecursionStack`.
-- `status::GraphRunStatus` carries `root_run_id`/`parent_run_id` in the same
-  shape, so the live-status and completed-run views of the recursion tree
-  stay consistent.
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- `RecursionStack::push`/`pop` must stay balanced around every nested call —
-  an executor path that pushes without a matching pop (e.g. on an early
-  return from an error branch) leaves the stack permanently deeper than the
-  actual call depth for the rest of that run.
-- `max_visits_per_node` counts are per-run, not persisted across a
-  resume/retry from a checkpoint — a long-running resumed thread does not
-  inherit visit counts from before the checkpoint boundary.

-//! This module provides that contract:

-//!   (super-steps per run).
-//! - [`RecursionStack`] is the live frame stack: every graph/subgraph/sub-agent
-//!   call pushes a frame (enforcing `max_depth`) and every return pops it, so
-//!   the stack stays symmetric and always describes the path from the root run
-//!   to the current one.

-# graph::reducer
-
-The deterministic fan-in point of the durable executor: how updates from one
-or more active nodes in a superstep are folded back into committed state.
-
-When a superstep runs several active nodes — including concurrent branches
-(`GraphBuilder::with_parallel`) or a node that merged results from a subgraph
-or sub-agent — `compiled::executor` folds their `NodeResult` updates through
-the configured reducer in deterministic active-set order at the step
-boundary, so the merged state is reproducible regardless of which branch
-finished first (see `compiled::README.md`'s "Sequential vs. parallel steps").
-This module supplies the trait definitions and the built-in reducer set;
-`channel` builds a richer per-field reducer on top of the same idea for
-channel-style state.
-
-## Public surface
-
-### Traits
-
-- `Reducer<T>` — merges two values of the same channel type:
-  `reduce(&self, current: T, update: T) -> Result<T>`. Used for channel-style
-  state where each key has its own merge policy (see `channel`).
-- `StateReducer<State, Update>` — merges a partial `Update` into the whole
-  `State`: `apply(&self, state: State, update: Update) -> Result<State>`. This
-  is the contract `CompiledGraph` executes against; `GraphBuilder::set_reducer`
-  configures it, and `GraphBuilder::overwrite` is shorthand for the
-  whole-state-overwrite default.
-
-### Built-in `Reducer<T>` markers
-
-- `OverwriteReducer` — last-value semantics (`update` replaces `current`).
-- `AppendReducer` — appends the update vector onto the current vector.
-- `SetUnionReducer` — unions the update vector into the current vector,
-  skipping duplicates and preserving first-seen order (requires `T: Eq + Hash
-  + Clone`).
-- `MinReducer` / `MaxReducer` — keeps the smaller/larger of the two values
-  (requires `T: PartialOrd`).
-- `ClosureReducer<T, F>` — a custom binary reducer backed by an `Fn(T, T) ->
-  Result<T>` closure; construct with `ClosureReducer::new`.
-
-### `StateReducer` implementations
-
-- `OverwriteStateReducer` — overwrites whole state with the update; the
-  default for `State == Update` graphs (`GraphBuilder::overwrite`).
-- `ClosureStateReducer<State, Update, F>` — a custom state reducer backed by
-  an `Fn(State, Update) -> Result<State>` closure; construct with
-  `ClosureStateReducer::new`.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | `Reducer`, `StateReducer` traits; the built-in marker structs. |
-| `mod.rs` | `impl` blocks wiring each marker/closure type to its trait. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests for every built-in reducer and the closure-backed ones. |
-
-## How it fits together
-
-- `builder::GraphBuilder::set_reducer` accepts any `StateReducer<State,
-  Update>`; `compile()` stores it as `Arc<dyn StateReducer<...>>` on the
-  frozen `CompiledGraph`.
-- `compiled::executor` is the sole caller of `StateReducer::apply`, invoked
-  once per completed activation's update at each superstep boundary, in
-  active-set order.
-- `channel` is a parallel, richer reducer surface: it applies a per-field
-  `Reducer<T>` to each named channel and detects same-step concurrent writes
-  a plain `StateReducer` would silently overwrite — see `channel/README.md`.
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- A `Reducer`/`StateReducer` implementation must be a pure, order-sensitive
-  merge over exactly the two values it is given — the executor relies on
-  applying updates in deterministic active-set order to make parallel-step
-  results reproducible; a reducer with side effects or hidden ordering
-  dependencies breaks that guarantee.
-- `SetUnionReducer`'s duplicate detection and `Min`/`MaxReducer`'s ordering
-  both depend on the element type's `Eq`/`Hash`/`PartialOrd` impls matching
-  the domain's notion of equality/ordering — a type with a `PartialOrd` that
-  disagrees with intended domain order will silently keep the "wrong" value.

-# graph::status
-
-`GraphRunStatus` — a compact, cheaply-pollable summary of a graph run,
-distinct from a checkpoint.
-
-Where a `checkpoint::Checkpoint` preserves the *resumable state* of a run, a
-`GraphRunStatus` is a lightweight record an observer can read to answer "is
-this run active?", "which node is executing?", "which interrupt is waiting?"
-— without deserializing full graph state. Because each status carries
-`root_run_id` / `parent_run_id`, these records form the same run-tree shape
-as `recursion::RunTree`, connecting a parent run to every subgraph/sub-agent
-run it spawns, so an observer can roll up progress, interrupts, and errors
-across levels of recursion.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- `GraphRunStatus` — the record itself: run/root/parent run ids, thread id,
-  graph id, latest checkpoint id and namespace, coarse `ExecutionStatus`,
-  current superstep, active nodes, pending interrupts, last event id,
-  timestamps (`started_at`/`updated_at`/`ended_at`), and a rendered error
-  summary for failed runs.
-  - `GraphRunStatus::new(run_id, graph_id, status)` — a fresh status for a
-    top-level run with no recorded progress (`root_run_id` mirrors `run_id`,
-    zeroed step/nodes/interrupts).
-  - `GraphRunStatus::is_terminal()` — true for `Completed`, `Failed`, or
-    `Cancelled`.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | The `GraphRunStatus` struct definition. |
-| `mod.rs` | `GraphRunStatus::new` and `::is_terminal`. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests for the constructor's defaults and terminal-state detection. |
-
-## How it fits together
-
-- `compiled::types::GraphExecution` carries a `status: GraphRunStatus`
-  snapshot at the final boundary of a run.
-- `observability::GraphStatusStore` (opt-in via
-  `CompiledGraph::with_status_store`) persists `GraphRunStatus` updates as a
-  run progresses, so an external poller doesn't need to replay the event
-  journal to answer "is this run still running?".
-- This module has no dependency on `checkpoint`, `stream`, or `observability`
-  — it defines only the record shape; the executor and observability layer
-  are what populate and persist it.

-# graph::stream
-
-The live, in-process event surface: pluggable sinks and the wire vocabulary
-(`GraphEvent`, `StreamMode`) the durable executor uses to narrate its own
-execution as it happens.
-
-The executor emits a `GraphEvent` at every meaningful boundary — run
-start/end, superstep start/end, node lifecycle, retries, routing decisions,
-checkpoints, interrupts, subgraph enter/exit, forked branches, recursion depth
-changes, and arbitrary custom writes. Routing those events into a
-`GraphEventSink` is what lets a UI or an enclosing graph watch a
-subgraph or sub-agent execute in real time; because every event carries its
-node/step, nested runs' streams can be merged and attributed back up the run
-tree. `observability` is what makes this same event vocabulary durable
-(journaled, replayable) rather than merely live — see
-`observability/README.md`.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- `GraphEventSink` (trait) — `emit(&self, event: GraphEvent)` receives one
-  event and must not block the executor; `flush(&self)` (default no-op) lets
-  an async-persisting sink let callers wait for the durable log to catch up
-  (the executor calls it after a terminal run event).
-- `NoopSink` — drops every event.
-- `CollectingSink` — records every event (in emission order) for inspection
-  in tests and UIs: `new()`, `events()`, `len()`, `is_empty()`.
-- `GraphEvent` — the event enum itself (see `types.rs` for every variant);
-  `kind()` returns a stable dot-separated name (e.g. `"node.completed"`) for
-  logging/filtering; `step()` returns the associated superstep number when the
-  variant carries one.
-- `StreamMode` — LangGraph-style selection of which projection of the stream a
-  caller wants: `Values`, `Updates`, `Messages`, `Debug`, `Interrupts`,
-  `Custom`. The milestone executor exposes this as a plain selection enum;
-  richer typed `StreamPart` projection is noted as future work.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | `GraphEvent` (every emitted variant), `StreamMode`. |
-| `mod.rs` | `GraphEventSink` trait, `NoopSink`, `CollectingSink`. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests for the two built-in sinks. |
-
-## How it fits together
-
-- `CompiledGraph::with_event_sink` attaches a `GraphEventSink`; the executor
-  (`compiled::executor`, `compiled::routing`) calls `self.emit(...)`
-  throughout the superstep loop.
-- `GraphEvent` is `serde`-(de)serializable so a single event can be wrapped
-  into a durable `observability::GraphObservation` envelope, journaled, and
-  replayed — the live stream and the durable journal share this same event
-  shape rather than maintaining parallel vocabularies.
-- `GraphEvent::step()` is what stamps the `step` field of a
-  `GraphObservation` when journaling.
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- A `GraphEventSink::emit` implementation must not block the executor thread
-  — a sink that persists asynchronously should hand off work (e.g. to a
-  channel or background task) and implement `flush` to let callers wait for
-  it to settle, rather than doing the write inline.
-- `CollectingSink` is unbounded and in-memory; it is meant for tests and
-  short-lived UIs, not as a durability mechanism for long-running production
-  runs.

-# graph::subagent_node
-
-> **Deprecated.** `SubAgentNode` and `subagent_node` are marked
-> `#[deprecated(note = "use tinyagents_orchestration SubagentDriver")]`. Graph
-> cannot depend on orchestration, so the node cannot adapt the driver; its
-> behaviour is unchanged. Use `SubagentDriver` for new work.
-
-Sub-agent nodes — the graph node that delegates to a harness *agent* (a
-model-driven agent loop) invoked through an explicit host capability.
-
-Where `graph::subgraph` embeds an entire `CompiledGraph` as a node (graph
-recursion), this module embeds a *harness agent* as a node (graph-to-agent
-recursion): a graph step hands its work to a host-selected,
-independently-observable agent and folds the agent's answer back into the
-parent graph state. A graph never synthesizes a harness `RunContext` itself;
-it only ever calls out through a host-bound `AgentInvoker`, so a graph without
-one fails closed rather than silently fabricating agent behavior.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- `SubAgentNode<State, Update>` — binds an agent name to an `InputMapper`
-  (parent `State` → `SubAgentInput`), an `OutputMapper` (`SubAgentOutput` →
-  parent `Update`), and a `SubAgentPolicy`. `::new` / `::from_fns` construct
-  it; `.with_policy` sets the policy.
-- `subagent_node(node) -> Handler<State, Update>` — lowers a `SubAgentNode`
-  into an ordinary graph node handler: resolves the agent's `AgentInvoker`
-  from the node context, projects state into `SubAgentInput`, mints a child
-  `run_id` parented to the enclosing run, runs under the policy
-  (timeout/retry/budget), records the child run (with its usage) onto the
-  parent's execution rollup, forwards the child's events, and folds the
-  output into a parent update.
-- `AgentInvoker` (trait) — the object-safe host boundary for graph-to-agent
-  recursion; implementations must dispatch through the same host entry point
-  used for a top-level harness run and create the child via
-  `RunContext::child`.
-- `AgentInvocation` — an explicit request for a host-owned recursive agent
-  invocation (agent id, mapped input, graph/node identity, parent/root run
-  ids, forwarded event sink and cancellation).
-- `AgentInvocationBinding` — the atomic, execution-scoped capability supplied
-  to one graph run (`invoker` + forwarded `events` + `cancellation`); never
-  stored on a reusable `CompiledGraph`.
-- `SubAgentInput` / `SubAgentOutput` — the structured carriers crossing the
-  graph↔agent boundary; `SubAgentOutput` also carries `UsageTotals` and call
-  counts so usage rolls up and a budget can be enforced.
-- `SubAgentPolicy` — timeout/retry/budget policy for one invocation; defers to
-  the harness `RetryPolicy` for backoff. Default is a conservative *single
-  attempt, no timeout, no budget* so a node never silently re-runs a
-  non-idempotent agent.
-- `SubAgentBudget` — optional caps on model/tool calls and input/output tokens,
-  checked *after* the child run returns; violating one fails the node with
-  `TinyAgentsError::LimitExceeded`. `apply_call_caps` tightens a `RunConfig`
-  for in-run enforcement; `max_cost` is carried but not enforced here
-  (`to_budget_limits` hands it to the harness `BudgetMiddleware`).
-  `SubAgentPolicy::retry_after_tool_calls` (default `false`) is honoured by the
-  orchestration paths; the graph node cannot see whether a failed attempt ran
-  tools. The policy types are re-exported from
-  `tinyagents_orchestration::subagent`.
-- `InputMapper<State>` / `OutputMapper<Update>` — type aliases for the parent↔
-  child mapping closures.

-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | `AgentInvocation`, `AgentInvocationBinding`, `AgentInvoker`, `SubAgentInput`, `SubAgentOutput`, `SubAgentBudget`, `SubAgentPolicy`, `InputMapper`, `OutputMapper`, `SubAgentNode`. |
-| `mod.rs` | `SubAgentNode` builders, `subagent_node` (the handler lowering), retry/timeout/budget execution (`run_with_policy`), and child-run recording. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests (delegation, mapper wiring, retry/timeout behavior, budget enforcement, child-run recording). |
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- `AgentInvocationBinding` is execution-scoped: it is supplied per graph run
-  (via `NodeContext::agent_binding`), never cached on a `CompiledGraph`.
-  Cloning it is only meant for descendants of the same execution tree — do
-  not reuse one binding across unrelated top-level executions, or their
-  cancellation/event signals bleed into each other.
-- A node without an attached `AgentInvocationBinding` fails immediately with
-  `TinyAgentsError::Capability` rather than falling back to any default
-  behavior — this is deliberate fail-closed design, not a bug to work around
-  by fabricating a binding.
-- `SubAgentPolicy`'s default retry policy allows exactly one attempt; a caller
-  that wants retries must opt in explicitly with `with_retry`, since retrying
-  a non-idempotent agent call by default would be unsafe.
-- The minted child `run_id` always preserves the run tree's `root_run_id` and
-  is parented to the enclosing graph run, so observability/tracing (see
-  `graph::observability`) can nest a sub-agent's model/tool calls under the
-  graph run that spawned it.
-
-## Relation to neighbours
-
-Structural counterpart to `graph::subgraph` (graph-to-graph recursion) and
-`graph::parallel` (fan-out without an agent boundary). Child-run bookkeeping
-here mirrors what `graph::subgraph` records via `crate::recursion::ChildRun`,
-so both recursion styles show up uniformly in `GraphExecution::child_runs` /
-`run_tree`. `graph::testkit::subagent_fake_node` fakes this module's
-child-run recording for tests without a live agent or registry.

-# graph::subgraph
-
-Subgraph node adapters — the graph-level recursion surface where a graph runs
-another graph.
-
-This is the structural counterpart to harness sub-agents (a model calling a
-model): here an entire `CompiledGraph` is embedded *as a node* inside a parent
-graph, so "graphs that run graphs" is just an ordinary node handler. Each
-embedding extends the child's checkpoint namespace with the embedding node id,
-which keeps every level of a recursively nested run durable and
-collision-free, and the executor's recursion limit bounds how deep that
-nesting can go.
-
-## Embedding modes
-
-- **`shared_subgraph_node(child)`** — parent and child share the same
-  `State`/`Update` channel (`Update == State`). The child runs over the
-  parent's state as passed to the node, and its final state becomes the
-  parent update.
-- **`adapter_subgraph_node(child, to_child, from_child)`** — parent and child
-  use different state shapes. `to_child: Fn(&P) -> C` projects the parent
-  state into the child's input; `from_child: Fn(&P, C) -> PU` folds the
-  child's final state back into a parent update.
-
-Both wrap a `CompiledGraph` into a node handler usable with
-`GraphBuilder::add_node`.
-
-## Interrupt propagation
-
-A child that pauses on an interrupt must surface that interrupt to the
-parent rather than have its partial state treated as a completed output —
-both adapters check `execution.is_interrupted()` and return
-`NodeResult::Interrupt(..)` instead of folding the paused child's state
-through `from_child` (or returning it directly, for the shared-state case).
-
-When a parent is resumed through one of `CompiledGraph`'s binding-aware
-continuation APIs, both adapters forward that same live
-`AgentInvocationBinding` into every resumed child branch. Bindings remain
-execution-only data — they are not checkpointed — so a resumed child that
-reaches a `SubAgentNode` without one fails closed.
-
-## Namespace and recursion bookkeeping
-
-Internal helpers (not part of the public surface, but load-bearing for
-correctness):
-
-- `namespaced(child, ctx)` — clones `child` and extends its checkpoint
-  namespace with the embedding node id, preventing parent/child checkpoint
-  collisions when both share a `thread_id`.
-- `child_for(child, ctx)` — prepares an embedded child for a run: applies
-  `namespaced`, seeds it with the enclosing run's live recursion frames (so
-  the child run extends the parent's recursion tree rather than starting a
-  fresh one), and records the embedding node so the child's root frame names
-  it.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- `shared_subgraph_node<State>(child: CompiledGraph<State, State>) -> Handler<State, State>`
-- `adapter_subgraph_node<P, PU, C, CU, ToChild, FromChild>(child, to_child, from_child) -> Handler<P, PU>`
-
-`types.rs` is documentation-only — the conceptual overview above — because the
-adapter constructors return closures rather than named types; there is no
-separate public type to document.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | Documentation-only: the two embedding modes, conceptually. |
-| `mod.rs` | `shared_subgraph_node`, `adapter_subgraph_node`, and the namespace/recursion-frame plumbing that makes nested checkpoints and recursion trees work. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests (shared vs. adapter state mapping, checkpoint namespace isolation, interrupt propagation, nested recursion limits). |
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- A parent and its embedded subgraph may share a `thread_id`, but they never
-  share a checkpoint namespace — the embedding always appends the node id.
-  A caller inspecting checkpoints directly (bypassing the node handler) must
-  account for this namespace suffix or it will not find the child's records
-  under the plain parent namespace.
-- Deep subgraph nesting is bounded by the executor's recursion limit, which is
-  seeded from the parent's live recursion frames on each embedding — a graph
-  that embeds itself (directly or through a cycle of subgraphs) will hit
-  `TinyAgentsError::RecursionLimit` rather than recurse unbounded.

-//! Subgraph node adapters — conceptual overview of the graph-level recursion

-//!
-//! Embedding a [`crate::CompiledGraph`] as a node is how this runtime
-//! expresses recursion at the graph layer (the analogue of a model calling a
-//! model in the harness). A child graph can be embedded in a parent in two
-//! modes:
-//!
-//! - **shared-state**: parent and child share the same `State`/`Update`
-//!   channel. The child runs over the parent's state and its final state is
-//!   returned as the parent update.
-//! - **adapter**: parent and child use different state shapes. A `to_child`
-//!   mapping projects parent state into the child input, and a `from_child`
-//!   mapping folds the child's final state back into a parent update.
-//!
-//! Both adapters append the embedding node id to the child's checkpoint
-//! namespace so parent and child checkpoint ids never collide.
-
-// This module is documentation-only for types; the adapter constructors live in
-// `mod.rs` because they return closures rather than named types.

-# graph::testkit
-
-Graph-test building blocks — deterministic node doubles, an event recorder, a
-stream projector, a fluent run-assertion builder, and storage conformance
-suites for the durable graph runtime.
-
-This is the *graph-level* counterpart to `harness::testkit` (model/tool
-doubles + trajectories): here the units under test are graph nodes and
-supersteps, so the doubles are node handlers and the assertions read a run's
-export/event/checkpoint truth. Because a node can recurse into a
-`graph::subgraph` or a `graph::subagent_node`, the same recorder that observes
-a top-level run also captures the events and child-run rollups of the nested
-runs it spawns, so recursion stays observable in tests.
-
-## Node doubles
-
-Each returns a closure ready for `GraphBuilder::add_node`:
-
-| Helper | Behavior |
-|--------|----------|
-| `noop_node` | Routes onward with no state update |
-| `scripted_update_node` | Emits queued updates (saturating the last) |
-| `scripted_route_node` | Emits queued `goto` route-sets |
-| `fanout_node` | Emits one `Send` per arg (fanout) |
-| `failing_node` | Always returns an error |
-| `RetryCountingNode` | Counts activations, fails the first N |
-| `interrupting_node` | Interrupts until resumed, then updates |
-| `subgraph_test_node` | Embeds a child graph (shared state) |
-| `subagent_fake_node` | Records a child run + updates (fake sub-agent) |
-
-## Observation & assertions
-
-- `GraphEventRecorder` — captures the `GraphEvent` stream from a run (`.sink()`
-  to wire it, `.events()` / `.kinds()` to read back, `.collector()` to
-  project).
-- `StreamCollector` — projects a recorded event list into test-friendly views:
-  `node_order()`, `updates()`, `routes()`, `interrupts()`,
-  `checkpoint_count()`, `custom()`.
-- `GraphRun<State>` — bundles a `GraphExecution<State>` with its recorded
-  events and checkpoint history; built with `::new(execution)` +
-  `.with_events(..)` / `.with_history(..)`. The single `GraphRun` is the test
-  truth — execution, events, and checkpoints all read from it.
-- `run_recorded(..)` — runs a graph with the recorder wired and returns the
-  bundled `GraphRun`.
-- `assert_graph(&run) -> GraphAssertions<'_, State>` — opens a fluent
-  assertion builder: `.visited(..)`, `.routed(from, to)`,
-  `.checkpoint_count(n)`, `.state_history(f)`, `.checkpoint(f)`,
-  `.completed()`, `.interrupted()` — each panics with a descriptive message on
-  failure and returns `&Self` for chaining.
-
-## Storage conformance suites (`conformance.rs`)
-
-Durable graph stores are hard to migrate safely without a shared contract:
-two backends that both implement a trait should behave identically. These
-functions encode that contract once so any backend — built-in or a
-caller-supplied adapter — can be certified by running the same assertions:
-
-- `checkpointer_contract(cp)` — basic `Checkpointer` contract: put/get
-  (latest and specific), duplicate-id resolution, insertion-order listing,
-  unknown-thread misses, namespace-scoped lookup, `list_threads`,
-  `delete_thread`, and `prune`.
-- `checkpointer_concurrent_contract(cp: Arc<C>)` — concurrent-write contract:
-  many tasks putting distinct checkpoints on one shared instance must not lose
-  writes.
-- `checkpointer_writes_contract(cp)` — pending-writes ledger contract: data
-  writes are idempotent by `(task_id, idx)`, control-plane writes upsert,
-  writes are namespace-isolated, and `delete_checkpoints`/`delete_thread`
-  remove the writes they own.
-- `checkpointer_lineage_contract(cp)` — lineage and thread-operation contract:
-  `get_tuple` addressing (including parent config), `state_history`
-  ordering/limit/cycle-termination, `copy_thread` semantics (including
-  rejecting a non-empty target), and per-namespace `prune`.
-- `taskstore_contract(store)` — basic CRUD/lifecycle contract for a
-  `tinyagents_tasks::TaskStore` implementation.
-- `taskstore_concurrent_contract(store: Arc<S>)` — concurrent-access contract
-  (no lost updates, no corrupted records under concurrent writers).
-- `taskstore_replay_contract(reopen)` — durability contract: a store reopened
-  via `reopen` must replay to the same state.
-
-Each function **panics** with a descriptive message on the first violation —
-call them from a `#[tokio::test]` / `#[test]` in the crate implementing a new
-backend.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `types.rs` | `GraphEventRecorder`, `StreamCollector`, `GraphRun`, `GraphAssertions`, `RetryCountingNode`. |
-| `mod.rs` | Node doubles, `run_recorded`, `assert_graph`. |
-| `conformance.rs` | `checkpointer_contract`, `checkpointer_concurrent_contract`, `checkpointer_writes_contract`, `checkpointer_lineage_contract`, `taskstore_contract`, `taskstore_concurrent_contract`, `taskstore_replay_contract`. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | Unit tests for the testkit itself (each double, recorder, assertion). |
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- These helpers are intended for tests; none of them are optimized for
-  production workloads (e.g. `GraphEventRecorder` buffers every event
-  unbounded in memory).
-- `RetryCountingNode` and `interrupting_node` hold interior mutable counters —
-  construct a fresh instance per test rather than sharing one across
-  independent test cases, or activation counts will leak between them.
-- Conformance suites assume the store under test starts empty (or, for
-  `taskstore_replay_contract`, that `reopen` yields an equivalent fresh
-  handle to the same underlying storage) — seed/clean state accordingly in
-  the calling test.

-//! Graph-test building blocks — deterministic node doubles, an event recorder, a
-//! stream projector, and a fluent run-assertion builder for the durable graph
-//! runtime.
-//!
-//! This is the *graph-level* counterpart to the harness
-//! [`testkit`](tinyagents_harness::testkit) (model/tool doubles + trajectories):
-//! here the units under test are graph nodes and supersteps, so the doubles are
-//! node handlers and the assertions read a run's export/event/checkpoint truth.
-//! Because a node can recurse into a [subgraph](crate::subgraph) or a
-//! [sub-agent](mod@crate::subagent_node), the same recorder that observes a
-//! top-level run also captures the events and child-run rollups of the nested
-//! runs it spawns, so recursion stays observable in tests.
-//!
-//! # Node doubles
-//!
-//! Each returns a closure ready for
-//! [`GraphBuilder::add_node`](crate::GraphBuilder::add_node):
-//!
-//! | Helper | Behavior |
-//! |--------|----------|
-//! | [`noop_node`] | Routes onward with no state update |
-//! | [`scripted_update_node`] | Emits queued updates (saturating the last) |
-//! | [`scripted_route_node`] | Emits queued `goto` route-sets |
-//! | [`fanout_node`] | Emits one [`Send`](crate::Send) per arg (fanout) |
-//! | [`failing_node`] | Always returns an error |
-//! | [`RetryCountingNode`] | Counts activations, fails the first N |
-//! | [`interrupting_node`] | Interrupts until resumed, then updates |
-//! | [`subgraph_test_node`] | Embeds a child graph (shared state) |
-//! | [`subagent_fake_node`] | Records a child run + updates (fake sub-agent) |
-//!
-//! # Observation & assertions
-//!
-//! [`GraphEventRecorder`] captures the [`GraphEvent`] stream; [`StreamCollector`]
-//! projects it; [`run_recorded`] runs a graph with the recorder wired and
-//! bundles the result, recorded events, and checkpoint history into a
-//! [`GraphRun`]; [`assert_graph`] opens a fluent [`GraphAssertions`] over it. The
-//! single [`GraphRun`] is the test truth — execution, events, and checkpoints
-//! all read from it.

-# harness::stream
-
-Higher-level streaming projections for the harness — the typed lens an
-observer uses to watch a run (and, transitively, the sub-agents and
-sub-graphs it spawns) unfold in real time.
-
-## Why this exists
-
-State snapshots, diffs, model deltas, debug traces, and interrupts from a run
-are projected as filtered [`StreamChunk`]s so a parent driving the run can
-consume only the categories it cares about,
-instead of every caller re-implementing delta reassembly and mode filtering
-over raw [`crate::events::AgentEvent`]s.
-
-The chunk *types* (`types.rs`) are independent of `crate::events`; only the
-projection (`project.rs`) depends on it, so callers that never touch events
-pay nothing for the coupling.
-
-## Public surface
-
-- [`StreamMode`] — selects which chunk categories a consumer wants: `Values`,
-  `Updates`, `Messages`, `Debug`, `Interrupts`, `Custom`.
-- [`StreamChunk`] — the typed union of chunk categories, adjacently tagged
-  for serialization (`{"type": …, "content": …}`). `mode()` returns the
-  `StreamMode` that gates a given chunk.
-- [`StreamSink`] — a synchronous, mode-filtered buffer. `new`/`all` construct
-  it; `push`/`push_event` submit chunks/events; `drain`/`peek` read the
-  buffer; `enable`/`disable` adjust the active mode set at runtime.
-- [`stream`] — a synchronous helper filtering an already-collected slice of
-  chunks by a set of modes (tests, post-processing).
-- [`project_event`] / [`project_event_for_modes`] / [`projected_mode`] — the
-  `AgentEvent` → `StreamChunk` projection. `project_event_for_modes` is the
-  one a streaming run loop should call per event: it skips
-  clone/serialization work for any mode nobody subscribed to.
-
-## Files
-
-| File | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `mod.rs` | `StreamSink` method implementations and the standalone `stream()` filter helper. |
-| `project.rs` | The `AgentEvent` → `StreamChunk` projection: `project_event`, `project_event_for_modes`, `projected_mode`, and the routing table in its module docs. |
-| `types.rs` | `StreamMode`, `StreamChunk`, `StreamSink` type definitions. |
-| `mod_tests.rs` | `StreamSink` filtering/push/drain/peek/enable/disable, `StreamChunk::mode` mapping, and the `stream()` helper. |
-
-## Operational constraints
-
-- Each `AgentEvent` projects to **at most one** `StreamChunk`, so a consumer
-  subscribed to several modes never receives the same event twice in two
-  shapes (see the routing table in `project.rs`).
-- `StreamMode::Values` is **never** produced by the projection — a full state
-  snapshot is graph state, which the event stream does not carry; the graph
-  runtime pushes `StreamChunk::Values` itself via `StreamSink::push`.
-- `StreamMode::Custom` is likewise never produced by projection — by
-  definition it is the caller's own extension channel, pushed directly.
-- `StreamSink` is synchronous and single-threaded (`RefCell`-backed buffer);
-  wrap it in `Arc<Mutex<_>>` to share across threads.

-//! Higher-level streaming projections for the harness.
-//!
-//! In the recursive architecture this is the typed lens an observer uses to
-//! watch work unfold across a nested run tree: state snapshots, diffs, model
-//! deltas, debug traces, and interrupts from a run — and, transitively, from
-//! the sub-agents and sub-graphs it spawns — are projected as filtered
-//! [`StreamChunk`]s so a parent driving the run can
-//! consume only the categories it cares about.
-//!
-//! This module provides:
-//!
-//! - [`StreamMode`] — an enum selecting which chunk categories a consumer
-//!   wants to receive.
-//! - [`StreamChunk`] — a typed union of all chunk categories (state snapshots,
-//!   diffs, model deltas, debug output, interrupts, and custom extensions).
-//! - [`StreamSink`] — a synchronous, mode-filtered buffer for [`StreamChunk`]s.
-//! - [`stream`] — a convenience helper that filters a slice of chunks by a
-//!   set of modes and returns the matching subset.
-//!
-//! - [`project_event`] / [`project_event_for_modes`] / [`projected_mode`] — the
-//!   [`AgentEvent`] → [`StreamChunk`] projection (see the `project` module docs
-//!   for the routing table).
-//!
-//! The chunk *types* are independent of `crate::events`; only the
-//! projection depends on it. Callers that never touch events still pay nothing
-//! for the coupling.
-//!
-//! # Wiring note for the agent loop (wave 2)
-//!
-//! `invoke_stream` should build a `StreamSink` from the caller's requested
-//! [`StreamMode`]s and call [`StreamSink::push_event`] (or
-//! [`project_event_for_modes`] directly) for every emitted [`AgentEvent`],
-//! instead of handing raw events to the caller. [`StreamMode::Values`] is the
-//! one mode the projection cannot supply — a full state snapshot is graph
-//! state, so the graph runtime pushes [`StreamChunk::Values`] itself.

-//! Projection from the raw [`AgentEvent`] stream onto typed [`StreamChunk`]s.
-//!
-//! This is the missing half of the streaming surface. [`StreamMode`],
-//! [`StreamChunk`] and [`StreamSink`] were fully defined and tested but used
-//! nowhere else in the crate — callers got raw `AgentEvent`s and each
-//! re-implemented delta reassembly and filtering. This module supplies the one
-//! function that turns an event into the chunk a consumer actually asked for.
-//!
-//! # Shape (ported from LangGraph)
-//!
-//! LangGraph multiplexes several *stream modes* over one producer: the producer
-//! filters by the requested mode set (`_loop.py`'s `stream_modes` check) and the
-//! consumer shapes the result (`main.py`'s `stream()` fan-out). The same split
-//! applies here:
-//!
-//! - **Producer-side filtering** — [`project_event_for_modes`] returns `None`
-//!   for an event whose chunk is not in the requested mode set, so nothing is
-//!   allocated or cloned for a mode nobody is listening to.
-//! - **Consumer-side shaping** — [`project_event`] gives the full projection
-//!   when the caller wants to route chunks itself.
-//!
-//! # One event, at most one chunk
-//!
-//! Each [`AgentEvent`] projects to **at most one** [`StreamChunk`], so a
-//! consumer subscribed to several modes never receives the same event twice in
-//! two shapes. The routing table:
-//!
-//! | Event | Chunk | Mode |
-//! |---|---|---|
-//! | [`AgentEvent::ModelDelta`] | [`StreamChunk::Message`] | [`StreamMode::Messages`] |
-//! | [`AgentEvent::StateUpdate`] | [`StreamChunk::Updates`] | [`StreamMode::Updates`] |
-//! | [`AgentEvent::ControlApplied`] with an interrupting control | [`StreamChunk::Interrupt`] | [`StreamMode::Interrupts`] |
-//! | [`AgentEvent::StreamClosed`] | — (not projected) | — |
-//! | everything else | [`StreamChunk::Debug`] | [`StreamMode::Debug`] |
-//!
-//! [`StreamMode::Values`] is deliberately **not** produced here: a full state
-//! snapshot is graph state, which the event stream does not carry. The graph
-//! runtime pushes [`StreamChunk::Values`] itself.
-//!
-//! [`StreamMode::Custom`] is likewise never produced — by definition it is the
-//! caller's own extension channel.

-///
-/// ```
-/// use tinyagents_harness::stream::{StreamChunk, StreamMode, StreamSink};
-/// use tinyinference_llm::message::MessageDelta;
-///
-/// let sink = StreamSink::new(vec![StreamMode::Messages]);
-/// sink.push(StreamChunk::Message(MessageDelta::text("hello")));
-/// sink.push(StreamChunk::Debug("ignored".into()));
-///
-/// let chunks = sink.drain();
-/// assert_eq!(chunks.len(), 1);
-/// ```
-pub struct StreamSink {
-    /// The set of modes whose chunks are accepted by this sink.
-    pub(crate) active_modes: HashSet<StreamMode>,

-# Graph Module Specification
-
-The graph module is TinyAgents' workflow runtime. It owns topology, state
-transition semantics, routing, execution history, checkpointing, interrupts,
-streaming, parallel execution, subgraph invocation, sub-agent nodes, recursive
-calls, and graph-level observability.
-
-The graph runtime does not know or care where a graph came from.
-
-The implementation lives in `crates/tinyagents-graph/src/` and includes the
-typed builder, compiled executor, channels, checkpointing, interrupts,
-streaming, parallel execution, subgraphs, sub-agent nodes, and observability.
-The specifications below describe the contract those modules implement.

-- `rust-langgraph` is useful as a small Rust-native reference for stateful LLM
-  workflows with nodes, conditional edges, checkpoints, streaming, optional
-  model adapters, and ReAct/tool helpers.
-- OpenHuman PR #4261 is useful as a product reference for keeping a generic
-  graph engine independent from the agent harness while exposing checkpoints,
-  HITL, observability events, and RPC run control.
-- TinyAgents should preserve the ergonomic Rust builder surface from these
-  precedents, but the target graph runtime must also be rich enough to be
-  inspected by UIs, driven from a host orchestrator, and tested with
-  deterministic state/channel snapshots.
-
-## Design Stance
-
-The graph module is the stable execution contract below all graph authoring
-surfaces. A graph may be built by Rust code, assembled by a host orchestration
-session, or restored from durable state. Once compiled, those origins must converge on the same immutable
-`CompiledGraph` behavior:
-
-- topology is validated before execution
-- node capabilities are resolved through registries
-- state writes pass through channel reducers
-- commands and `Send` packets are explicit runtime values
-- checkpoints and pending writes are owned by the graph runtime
-- nested graph and sub-agent calls preserve run hierarchy
-- events contain enough source/origin metadata to explain generated graphs
-
-The graph runtime must not accept unchecked model-generated topology or
-executable code.
-
-## Responsibilities
-
-- Build named node graphs with direct, conditional, barrier, and command-based
-  routing.
-- Validate topology before execution and freeze it into an immutable compiled
-  graph.
-- Execute async nodes under graph and node policies.
-- Apply partial state updates through typed channel/reducer policies.
-- Execute multiple active nodes in a superstep.
-- Support dynamic fanout through `Send`-style packets.
-- Enforce recursion, step, timeout, concurrency, retry, and cache policy.
-- Persist checkpoints, pending writes, task outcomes, and interrupt state at
-  execution boundaries.
-- Support human-in-the-loop interrupts and resumable commands.
-- Support manual state inspection, state history, state update, forks, and time
-  travel when checkpointing is enabled.
-- Support targeted steering of parent orchestrator runs, child sub-agent runs,
-  graph tasks, and pending interrupts through policy-checked commands.
-- Emit typed graph, task, checkpoint, interrupt, and streamed-output events.
-- Represent subgraphs as executable nodes with namespaced checkpoints and nested
-  streams.
-- Represent harness sub-agents as graph nodes with child run identity.
-- Export graph structure for visualization, tests, and generated docs.
-
-## Non-Responsibilities
-
-- It does not own chat model provider logic.
-- It does not own tool schema validation or tool dispatch.
-- It does not implement prompt templating.
-- It does not manage long-term application memory.
-- It does not own model/tool usage accounting, though it must forward and roll
-  up child events from harness nodes.

-# Graph Builder And Compile Contract
-
-The builder supports:
-
-- `add_node`
-- `add_node_shared`
-- `add_sequence`
-- `add_edge`
-- `add_waiting_edge`
-- `add_conditional_edges`
-- `set_entry_point`
-- `set_conditional_entry_point`
-- `set_finish_point`
-- `set_node_defaults`
-- `set_defaults`
-- `with_max_concurrency`
-- `with_node_timeout`
-- `interrupt_before` / `interrupt_after` / `mark_interrupt`
-- `compile`
-
-`add_conditional_edges` accepts route labels and a router return value that are
-any `impl ToString`, so a user-defined route enum that implements `Display` (or
-the `Route` newtype) can label edges directly; plain `&str`/`String` labels keep
-working unchanged.
-
-`add_sequence([a, b, c])` is convenience sugar for a chain of direct edges
-(`add_edge(a, b).add_edge(b, c)`). `add_waiting_edge(from, to)` is a barrier edge:
-`to` activates only once *all* of its registered predecessors have completed,
-even across supersteps.
-
-`add_edge`/`add_waiting_edge` accumulate: calling `add_edge("a", "b")` then
-`add_edge("a", "c")` schedules **both** `b` and `c` as static fan-out targets
-of `a` (deduplicated — adding the same edge twice does not schedule the
-target twice), matching the "one or more node names" routing contract. This
-is a change from earlier versions, where a second `add_edge` call from the
-same source silently overwrote the first.
-
-`add_conditional_edges_checked(from, router, all_labels)` is
-`add_conditional_edges` plus an exhaustive `all_labels` list tied to the
-router's own return type. `compile()` cross-checks every declared label
-against the node's route table and rejects a mismatch with
-`TinyAgentsError::MissingRoute` **at build time**, instead of only at run
-time when the router happens to return the mistyped label. Plain
-`add_conditional_edges` (no exhaustive label list) still only fails at run
-time, since an opaque closure's possible outputs can't be enumerated ahead of
-time.
-
-Graph defaults are settable in one call:
-
-```rust
-pub struct GraphDefaults {
-    pub recursion_limit: Option<usize>,
-    pub parallel: Option<bool>,
-    pub max_concurrency: Option<usize>,
-    pub node_timeout: Option<Duration>,
-}
-```
-
-`set_defaults(GraphDefaults { .. })` applies only the `Some` fields.
-`with_max_concurrency(n)` bounds the number of node handlers in flight per
-parallel superstep (the active set runs in chunks of at most `n`).
-`with_node_timeout(d)` fails the run with `TinyAgentsError::Timeout` if any node
-handler does not resolve within `d`.
-
-`CompiledGraph::with_run_deadline(d)` bounds the *whole run* by a wall-clock
-`d`, checked at every super-step boundary: when the elapsed run time first
-reaches `d` the run stops *between* super-steps with `TinyAgentsError::Timeout`,
-leaving the last committed boundary checkpoint intact and resumable. Prefer this
-over wrapping `run` in an external `tokio::time::timeout`, which aborts
-mid-super-step and cannot leave a clean checkpoint. It bounds scheduling, not a
-single in-flight node — pair it with `with_node_timeout` to also bound
-individual handlers.
-
-## `add_node` vs `add_node_shared` (state cloning)
-
-```rust
-// By value — clones out of the step's Arc<State> once per invocation.
-.add_node("summarize", |state: State, ctx: NodeContext| async move { .. })
-
-// Zero-clone — receives the step's Arc<State> directly.
-.add_node_shared("summarize", |state: Arc<State>, ctx: NodeContext| async move { .. })
-```
-
-Internally every node handler receives the step's committed state as an
-`Arc<State>` (`docs/runtime-comparison/code-review-graph.md` M2): a
-superstep clones `State` at most once, and every branch of a parallel
-`Send` fan-out and every retry attempt of a task shares that `Arc` via a
-cheap `Arc::clone`. `add_node` is the pre-existing, source-compatible entry
-point — it wraps the closure so it still receives an owned `State`, cloning
-out of the `Arc` on each call. `add_node_shared` skips that clone entirely
-by handing the closure the `Arc<State>` directly; prefer it for a node with
-a large state or one that only reads state. See
-[nodes.md](nodes.md#actual-handler-signature-and-state-cloning-m2) for the
-full rationale and the matching `NodeContext::send_arg` change.
-
-## Interrupt selectors
-
-```rust
-GraphBuilder::<State, Update>::new()
-    .interrupt_before(["approve"])
-    .interrupt_after(["plan"])      // requires Update: Serialize + DeserializeOwned
-    .mark_interrupt("review")       // == interrupt_before(["review"])
-```
-
-`interrupt_before(nodes)` pauses the run instead of invoking a listed node;
-`interrupt_after(nodes)` lets the node run, then pauses *before* its result
-is applied, persisting the result as a deferred write that resume replays
-without re-running the handler. Both inject an `Interrupt` with payload
-`{"phase": "before" | "after"}`, need a checkpointer and thread like any
-interrupt, are validated at `compile()` (`MissingNode`), and set the
-export's `NodeInfo::interrupt` marker. `mark_interrupt` used to set only that
-marker; it is now an alias for `interrupt_before` — a node that already
-pauses itself should not be listed (it would pause twice; annotate it with
-`with_node_metadata` for the export instead). Full semantics, including how
-acknowledgements survive repeated pauses, are in
-[interrupts.md](interrupts.md#interrupt_before--interrupt_after-selectors).
-
-## `NodeContext::durable_task`
-
-```rust
-.add_node("charge", |state, ctx: NodeContext| async move {
-    let receipt: Receipt = ctx
-        .durable_task("charge-card", async { payments.charge(&state).await })
-        .await?;
-    if ctx.resume.is_none() {
-        return Ok(NodeResult::Interrupt(Interrupt::new("charge", json!(receipt))));
-    }
-    Ok(NodeResult::Update(state.with_receipt(receipt)))
-})
-```
-
-A node is re-run from its start after an interrupt/resume, a failure/retry,
-or an in-process node retry. `durable_task(key, fut)` runs `fut` at most
-once per `(task_id, key)`: the first execution awaits it and records its
-`Ok` output (`T: Serialize + DeserializeOwned`) as a
-`PendingWrite::durable_task` memo in the task's checkpoint write ledger; a
-re-run of the same task returns the stored value without polling `fut`. An
-`Err` is returned unmemoised. Keys are independent — a handler that memoised
-`"a"` then failed before `"b"` replays `"a"` and runs `"b"` fresh on retry.
-Memos are scoped to one task in one thread (not a cross-run cache; see
-`CompiledGraph::with_cached_node` for that) and are durable across process
-restarts on a checkpointed thread; a graph without a checkpointer still
-dedupes within one run. The executor pre-seeds each re-run's context from
-the checkpoint and persists new memos at whichever boundary the task
-stalls at (interrupt or failure); a task that completes drops its memos.
-
-## Not implemented: compile-time options
-
-An earlier draft of this page described a `CompileOptions` struct
-(`checkpointer: CheckpointerChoice`, `cache`, `store`, `debug`,
-`stream_transformers`) mirroring LangGraph's compile-time bag. It does not
-exist: checkpointers, caches, sinks, and policies are attached to the
-`CompiledGraph` with `with_*` methods after `compile()`, and the interrupt
-selectors live on the builder as above.
-
-Validation rules:
-
-- graph must have at least one `START` path
-- `START` cannot be an edge target
-- `END` cannot be an edge source
-- every edge source exists, except `START`
-- every edge target exists, except `END`
-- duplicate node ids are rejected
-- duplicate branch names from a source are rejected
-- conditional route targets are validated at compile time when known
-- interrupt targets must exist
-- waiting-edge sources and targets must exist
-- command destinations used only for rendering are marked as such
-- node additions after compile do not mutate an existing compiled graph

-# Graph Checkpointing, Durability, State Inspection, And Time Travel
-
-Checkpointing is graph runtime persistence. It is separate from harness memory
-and long-term stores.
-
-LangGraph stores graph state through checkpointers. The checkpoint package
-defines this as the graph persistence layer: it saves graph state at every
-superstep and enables human-in-the-loop, memory between interactions, durable
-execution, and replay. Its core persistence unit is a checkpoint tuple: the
-checkpoint itself plus config, metadata, parent config, and pending writes.
-
-Checkpoint coordinates are thread-based:
-
-- `thread_id` identifies the checkpoint lineage for a conversation, workflow, or
-  tenant-isolated run series.
-- `checkpoint_id` optionally selects a specific point in that thread, including
-  time-travel or replay from the middle of a thread.
-- `checkpoint_ns` scopes nested graph/subgraph state so subgraphs can share a
-  checkpointer without colliding with parent checkpoints.
-
-```rust
-#[async_trait]
-pub trait Checkpointer: Send + Sync {
-    async fn get_tuple(
-        &self,
-        query: CheckpointQuery,
-    ) -> Result<Option<CheckpointTuple>>;
-
-    async fn list(
-        &self,
-        query: CheckpointListQuery,
-    ) -> Result<Vec<CheckpointTuple>>;
-
-    async fn put(
-        &self,
-        checkpoint: Checkpoint,
-        metadata: CheckpointMetadata,
-        new_versions: ChannelVersions,
-    ) -> Result<CheckpointConfig>;
-
-    async fn put_writes(
-        &self,
-        config: CheckpointConfig,
-        writes: Vec<PendingWrite>,
-        task_id: TaskId,
-        task_path: TaskPath,
-    ) -> Result<()>;
-}
-```
-
-Checkpoint tuple:
-
-```rust
-pub struct CheckpointTuple {
-    pub config: CheckpointConfig,
-    pub checkpoint: Checkpoint,
-    pub metadata: CheckpointMetadata,
-    pub parent_config: Option<CheckpointConfig>,
-    pub pending_writes: Vec<PendingWrite>,
-}
-```
-
-Checkpoint fields (verified against `crates/tinyagents-graph/src/checkpoint/types.rs`,
-`Checkpoint<State>` and `CheckpointMetadata`):
-
-Implemented today:
-
-- checkpoint id
-- thread id
-- checkpoint namespace
-- run id
-- `version: u32` — the on-disk record shape. `2` (`CHECKPOINT_FORMAT_VERSION`)
-  for every record this crate writes; see "Checkpoint format v2" below.
-- `created_at: u64` — wall-clock write time in Unix millis
-  (`tinyagents_harness::ids::now_ms()`); `0` on a v1 record, which never
-  carried a timestamp.
-- committed state (`state: State`, not a per-channel value map)
-- `tasks: Vec<PendingActivation>` — the single source of truth for what runs
-  on resume, preserving each pending node's `Send` argument and task id.
-- `completed: Vec<CompletedTask>` — the single source of truth for what
-  completed in the step that produced this checkpoint, each entry carrying
-  its own task id, node, and explicit `Command::goto` routing (empty when
-  the task returned none — route via static/conditional edges instead).
-  Replaces the v1 `completed_tasks`/`completed_routes` pair: persisting a
-  carried-forward branch's `Command::goto` is what lets it survive an
-  interrupt/failure + resume instead of re-resolving via static/conditional
-  edges only.
-- barrier (waiting-edge) arrivals (`barrier_arrivals`)
-- pending writes
-- interrupts
-- parent checkpoint id
-- free-form `metadata: serde_json::Value`, including well-known keys the
-  executor itself reads back on resume: `source`, `step` (kept monotonic
-  across a resume — see `resume::resume_from_inner`'s `initial_steps`
-  seeding), `node_visits` (per-node visit counts, seeded from here on resume
-  so `RecursionPolicy::max_visits_per_node` bounds a thread's whole
-  lifetime, not just one run), `interrupted_nodes`, and (on a failure
-  boundary) `failed_node`/`error`
-- metadata source: `input`, `loop`, `update`, or `fork` (`CheckpointMetadata::source`)
-
-**Target (not implemented):** the following LangGraph-derived fields do not
-exist on `Checkpoint`/`CheckpointMetadata` today — no per-channel
-`channel_values`/`channel_versions`, no `versions_seen` map, no
-`updated_channels` list, no `graph_id` field, and no structured per-task
-outcome record beyond `completed`/`pending_writes`. Introducing these would
-require a channel-based state model this crate does not have (state here is a
-single typed `State`, not a set of named channels).
-
-## Checkpoint format v2
-
-Checkpoint format v2 (`Checkpoint::version == CHECKPOINT_FORMAT_VERSION == 2`)
-replaces four overlapping v1 projections of pending/completed work —
-`next_nodes: Vec<NodeId>`, `completed_tasks: Vec<NodeId>` +
-`completed_routes: Vec<Vec<RouteTarget>>` (a parallel pair that had to stay
-positionally aligned by convention, not by type), and
-`pending_activations: Option<Vec<PendingActivation>>` (an `Option`-wrapped
-superset of `next_nodes` carrying the same information) — with exactly two
-fields: `tasks: Vec<PendingActivation>` and `completed: Vec<CompletedTask>`.
-`pending_writes` and `barrier_arrivals` are unchanged; they already carried
-information (the resume/error/interrupt control-plane slots, and barrier
-arrival sets) that v1's schedule fields never could.
-
-### Decode path: `Checkpoint::normalize`
-
-The four v1 fields (`next_nodes`, `completed_tasks`, `completed_routes`,
-`pending_activations`) still exist on `Checkpoint<State>` as
-`#[serde(default, skip_serializing_if = "…")]` **decode-only** inputs: a
-record written by a build that predates checkpoint format v2 still
-deserializes, with `version` defaulting to `1` via
-`#[serde(default = "checkpoint_version_v1")]`. Every writer in this crate
-leaves those four fields at their empty default, so a freshly-written record
-serializes with none of them present — only `tasks`/`completed` describe
-pending/completed work going forward.
-
-`Checkpoint::normalize(&mut self)` is the single place that reads the legacy
-fields and folds them into the v2 shape: when `version < 2`, `tasks` is
-derived from `pending_activations` (falling back to `next_nodes`, projected
-to plain node activations with no `Send` arg and an empty task id) and
-`completed` is derived by zipping `completed_tasks` with `completed_routes`
-(padding a shorter/missing `completed_routes` with empty routing — the
-pre-`completed_routes` behavior); the legacy fields are then cleared and
-`version` is stamped to `2`. It is a no-op on an already-v2 record.
-
-Every bundled `Checkpointer` backend calls `normalize()` on every decode
-path — `get`, `get_scoped`, `list` (via a normalize-equivalent header
-projection that never needs a full-record decode; see "Listing" below),
-`state_history`, and `get_thread` — for both backends
-(`InMemoryCheckpointer`, `DriverCheckpointer`). Callers
-outside this module therefore never observe a v1 record: `checkpoint.tasks`/
-`checkpoint.completed` are always populated and correct regardless of which
-format version the stored record was originally written in. Readers
-elsewhere in this crate (`compiled::resume`, `compiled::boundary`,
-`compiled::state_api`, `compiled::mod`) read `tasks`/`completed` only — the
-v1-derivation logic that used to live in those modules (a `next_nodes`
-fallback in `resume_from_inner`, a zip of `completed_tasks`/
-`completed_routes` in `boundary::advance`'s carried-completion handling) was
-deleted once `normalize()` centralized it.
-
-`Checkpoint::to_metadata()` (which backs `Checkpointer::list` and the
-inspection API) resolves the same v2-or-derived-from-v1 pending set without
-mutating `self`, so a listing path that only ever decodes a header (the file
-backend's `CheckpointHeader`, the SQLite backend's projected `next_nodes`
-column) can report the correct schedule for a v1 record without a full
-record decode.
-
-### Building a v2 checkpoint
-
-`Checkpoint::new(state, tasks)` builds a fresh v2 record with sensible
-defaults: a freshly-minted `checkpoint_id`, the current `created_at`,
-`version == CHECKPOINT_FORMAT_VERSION`, and empty `thread_id`/`completed`/
-`pending_writes`/`interrupts`/`barrier_arrivals`/`namespace` (`metadata` is
-`null`). `Checkpoint::builder(state)` is an alias with no pending tasks yet.
-Every field is also directly `pub`, but the fluent `with_*` setters
-(`with_thread_id`, `with_checkpoint_id`, `with_run_id`,
-`with_parent_checkpoint_id`, `with_namespace`, `with_tasks`,
-`with_completed`, `with_pending_writes`, `with_interrupts`,
-`with_barrier_arrivals`, `with_metadata`, `with_channel_versions`,
-`with_versions_seen`, `with_channel_deltas`) are what every checkpoint
-construction site in this crate uses (`boundary::{advance,
-handle_failure_boundary, handle_interrupt_boundary, persist_cancel_checkpoint,
-persist_failure_checkpoint, build_loop_checkpoint}`,
-`state_api::{update_state, fork_state}`, the conformance suite) instead of a
-~15-field struct literal repeating the same four-projection duplication at
-every call site.
-
-### Channel bookkeeping fields (I5/R3)
-
-Three fields round out the v2 record, all `#[serde(default)]` so an older
-checkpoint decodes with them empty:
-
-- `channel_versions: BTreeMap<String, u64>` — cumulative per-channel write
-  counters as of this boundary. For a `channel::ChannelState` graph this is
-  `ChannelState::channel_versions()` verbatim; for a plain whole-`State`
-  graph it is a single `{"state": n}` entry, bumped once per checkpoint.
-- `versions_seen: BTreeMap<String, BTreeMap<String, u64>>` — per-node
-  snapshot of `channel_versions` as of the last time each node ran (keyed by
-  node id string — `NodeId` has no `Ord` impl to key a `BTreeMap` directly).
-  Backs `NodeContext::changed_since_last_run`.
-- `channel_deltas: BTreeMap<String, Vec<serde_json::Value>>` — this
-  checkpoint's own step's raw writes to every
-  `channel::ChannelSet::with_delta`-tracked channel (not cumulative — see
-  `docs/modules/graph/state-channels.md`'s "Delta-channel history" section).
-  Replayed across a lineage by `Checkpointer::delta_history`.
-
-Every checkpoint-construction call site fills these through one shared
-function, `channel::channel_bookkeeping(state, fallback_version)`, so a normal
-superstep boundary and a manual `update_state`/`fork_state` write can never
-disagree about what they persist here.
-
-Durability modes:
-
-- `sync`: persist before the next step starts.
-- `async`: persist while the next step executes.
-- `exit`: persist only when the graph exits.
-
-Backends:
-
-- in-memory
-- file-backed JSON/JSONL
-- SQLite
-- Postgres later
-
-Thread operations:
-
-- list checkpoints for a thread
-- delete all checkpoints for a thread
-- delete checkpoints by run id
-- copy a thread to a new thread id
-- prune checkpoints with a documented strategy
-
-Delta channels require careful copy and prune semantics. A checkpoint backend
-must not keep only the latest checkpoint if the latest checkpoint depends on
-ancestor pending writes or a previous delta snapshot.
-
-## Long-Term Stores
-
-LangGraph also has a `BaseStore`, but that is not the same thing as graph state
-checkpointing. Stores provide long-term memory that can persist across threads
-and conversations. They support hierarchical namespaces, key-value items,
-metadata, and optional vector search.
-
-TinyAgents should mirror this separation:
-
-- checkpointers store execution state needed to resume a graph exactly
-- stores hold application memory, records, artifacts, and searchable data that
-  graph or harness nodes may read and write
-
-Compiled graphs may receive a store registry at compile/run time, and
-`GraphContext` may expose stores to nodes, but the executor must not use stores
-as a substitute for checkpoints.
-
-## State Inspection And Time Travel
-
-Compiled graphs with checkpointing should expose:
-
-- `get_state(thread_id, checkpoint_id)`
-- `get_state_history(thread_id, before, limit, filter)`
-- `update_state(thread_id, values, as_node, task_id)`
-- `bulk_update_state(thread_id, supersteps)`
-- `fork_state(source_checkpoint, target_thread_id)`
-
-State snapshots contain:
-
-- current values
-- next node names
-- config used to fetch the snapshot
-- checkpoint metadata
-- creation timestamp
-- parent config
-- tasks for the next step
-- task errors and results from attempted work
-- pending interrupts
-
-Manual state updates are graph writes. They must pass through the same channel
-reducers, produce checkpoint metadata with source `update`, and validate
-`as_node` when a caller attributes the write to a node.
-
-Time travel is implemented by invoking or streaming from an older checkpoint
-config or by forking a thread. It must not mutate old checkpoint records.
-
-## Implemented (TinyAgents)
-
-The checkpoint core lives in `crates/tinyagents-graph/src/checkpoint/`:
-
-- `Checkpoint<State>` — the persisted superstep snapshot (thread/checkpoint ids,
-  parent lineage, namespace, committed state, next/completed nodes, pending
-  writes, interrupts, and free-form metadata).
-- `CheckpointMetadata` — the lightweight listing record. Its `source` field is a
-  typed `CheckpointSource` (no longer a bare string).
-- `CheckpointSource` — `Input | Loop | Update | Fork` with serde (lowercase wire
-  form) and `Display`. `CheckpointSource::parse` recovers it from a string.
-- `DurabilityMode` — `Sync | Async | Exit`, default `Sync`. `Sync` persists a
-  checkpoint before the next step starts. `Async` hands non-terminal boundary
-  writes to spawned background tasks so checkpoint I/O stays off the superstep
-  critical path; the checkpoint id is minted up front so lineage stays chained.
-  A failed background write is never silently lost: the run fails at the next
-  durability boundary that observes it, and every in-flight write is awaited
-  (drained) at the terminal, interrupt, and failure boundaries so the run
-  result reflects persistence failures. The terminal and interrupt checkpoints
-  themselves are always written synchronously; `CheckpointSaved` events for
-  background writes arrive when the write completes, so their ordering
-  relative to later step events is not deterministic. Outside a tokio runtime
-  `Async` degrades to `Sync`. `Exit` persists only the terminal checkpoint and
-  any interrupt boundary (interrupts must persist so the run can resume). Set
-  it with `CompiledGraph::with_durability(mode)`.
-
-Two guarantees make `Async` durability safe to reason about. **Background writes
-are ordered**: each spawned write awaits the previously spawned one before its
-own `put`, because every bundled backend defines a thread's "latest" checkpoint
-by insertion order — an unserialized writer could let boundary N land after
-boundary N+1 and make a concurrent reader (or a `retry` racing a straggler
-append) see a stale record as latest. A write whose predecessor failed is
-skipped entirely rather than appending a record whose `parent_checkpoint_id`
-points at something that never persisted; the predecessor's error is what the
-run reports. **Every exit drains**: not only the terminal, interrupt, and
-failure boundaries but also the mid-run aborts — recursion limit, run deadline,
-node-visit limit, reducer and routing errors — settle in-flight writes before
-returning `Err`. Dropping the tracker would detach those tasks, discarding their
-outcome and racing a caller that immediately calls `retry(thread_id)`.
-
-`prune` is namespace-aware: the recency window applies per namespace, so the
-lineages of embedded subgraphs (which share the parent's thread id under their
-own namespace, and are never referenced by a parent record's
-`parent_checkpoint_id`) are retained rather than deleted along with old parent
-records.
-
-- `CheckpointConfig { thread_id, checkpoint_id, namespace }` — checkpoint
-  coordinates. `CheckpointConfig::latest(thread_id)` addresses the newest
-  checkpoint at the root namespace.
-- `CheckpointTuple<State> { config, checkpoint, parent_config, pending_writes }`
-  — the documented core persistence unit.
-- `Checkpointer::get_tuple(config)` — a default trait method composed from `get`
-  so every backend gets it for free; it resolves the concrete config and the
-  parent's config from the loaded record.
-
-The `Checkpointer` trait retains its existing `put` / `get` / `list` surface.
-Two backends are bundled:
-
-- `InMemoryCheckpointer` — an `Arc<Mutex<..>>` map, cheap to clone (clones share
-  storage), for tests and ephemeral runs.
-- `DriverCheckpointer` — a durable backend over a `tinystoragedrivers`
-  `DocumentStore`, so the host's storage backend (SQLite, MongoDB, memory)
-  holds the checkpoints. Each checkpoint is one document keyed by thread,
-  namespace and sequence; the full record is stored as JSON, and the parent
-  id, namespace, source, step and run id are projected into indexed fields so
-  listing and parent-chain walks do not decode whole states. `list` decodes
-  headers only (`Checkpoint<IgnoredAny>`), and `get`/`get_scoped`/`get_thread`/
-  `state_history` call `Checkpoint::normalize` on the decoded record so a v1
-  document is indistinguishable from a v2 one. Pending writes live in their
-  own collection keyed by checkpoint id. `put_with_writes` commits the
-  checkpoint and its writes in one atomic batch. The impl is bound by
-  `State: Serialize + DeserializeOwned`.
-
-The earlier `FileCheckpointer` and `SqliteCheckpointer` were removed; see the
-CHANGELOG for the migration.
-
-### `put_with_writes`
-
-`Checkpointer::put_with_writes(checkpoint, writes)` is a default trait method
-(so every out-of-tree backend keeps compiling unchanged) composed from `put`
-followed by `put_writes`. `DriverCheckpointer` overrides it to run both
-writes inside one atomic batch, so a boundary that needs to persist
-both a checkpoint and its pending writes commits them atomically instead of
-as two independent writes.
-
-### Thread operations
-
-`Checkpoint` and `CheckpointMetadata` now carry an optional `run_id`
-(back-compatible — pre-existing/manual records leave it `None`). The executor
-stamps every boundary checkpoint with the producing run id.
-
-The `Checkpointer` trait exposes the documented thread operations. Three are
-storage-specific primitives (no default body): `list_threads`, `delete_thread`,
-and the low-level `delete_checkpoints(thread_id, ids)`. The higher-level
-operations are default trait methods composed from those plus `list`/`get`/`put`,
-so every backend inherits them:
-
-- `delete_by_run(thread_id, run_id)` — deletes the checkpoints stamped with a
-  run id (composed from `list` + `delete_checkpoints`), returning the count.
-- `get_thread(thread_id)` — bulk-reads every full checkpoint record for a
-  thread in listing order. The default is composed from `list` + `get` (one
-  lookup per id); all three bundled backends override it with a single-pass
-  read (map clone / one file parse / one indexed range query).
-- `copy_thread(source, target)` — deep-copies every checkpoint into a new thread
-  id, preserving each record's `checkpoint_id` and `parent_checkpoint_id` so the
-  lineage spine stays walkable for time-travel/resume (composed from
-  `get_thread` + `put`, so the source thread is read once).
-- `prune(thread_id, keep_last)` — retains the most recent `keep_last`
-  checkpoints **plus the full `parent_checkpoint_id` ancestor chain of every
-  retained checkpoint**, then deletes the rest. Protecting the entire ancestor
-  chain is what honors the delta-channel warning: a kept checkpoint that stores
-  only a delta (or depends on an ancestor's pending writes/snapshot) can never
-  be orphaned from the state it needs. `keep_last == 0` is clamped to `1` so the
-  latest checkpoint always survives.
-
-`InMemoryCheckpointer` implements the three storage primitives (plus a
-single-pass `get_thread`); it inherits `delete_by_run`, `copy_thread`, and
-`prune` from the trait defaults.
-
-### State inspection & time travel
-
-`CompiledGraph` exposes the documented inspection/time-travel surface when a
-checkpointer is configured (every method returns `TinyAgentsError::Checkpoint`
-if it is not). A `StateSnapshot<State>` bundles the committed `values`, the
-`next_nodes`/`tasks` that would run on resume, the `config` addressing the
-snapshot, its `parent_config`, the listing `metadata`, and any
-`pending_interrupts`.
-
-- `get_state(thread_id, checkpoint_id)` — loads a snapshot (latest when
-  `checkpoint_id` is `None`); `Ok(None)` for an unknown thread/checkpoint.
-- `get_state_history(thread_id, limit)` — snapshots newest-first, walking the
-  `parent_checkpoint_id` lineage back from the latest checkpoint; `limit` caps
-  the count.
-- `update_state(thread_id, update, as_node)` — a manual graph write. The
-  `update` is folded through the same `StateReducer` the executor uses, on top
-  of the thread's latest committed state, and persisted as a new checkpoint with
-  source `update`. `as_node` must name a real node (`MissingNode` otherwise); the
-  write is attributed to it: the node is treated as just-completed (it leaves
-  the pending set) and its routing successors are merged into the base
-  checkpoint's remaining pending work, so branches the write never touched keep
-  running — with their `Send` args intact. A successor behind a waiting edge is
-  barrier-gated exactly as during a run, and the retained predecessors are what
-  later clear the join. With `as_node == None` the latest pending set is
-  preserved.
-- `bulk_update_state(thread_id, updates)` — applies a sequence of
-  `(update, as_node)` pairs as successive `update` checkpoints, each layered on
-  the previous one's committed state; returns the last config (errors on an
-  empty sequence).
-- `fork_state(source_thread, source_checkpoint_id, target_thread)` — copies a
-  checkpoint into a new thread as a fresh root (no parent) with source `fork`.
-  The source record is read with `get` and never mutated, so forks are
-  non-destructive time travel.
-
-Time-travel resume is `resume_from(thread_id, target, command)` where `target`
-is a `ResumeTarget` (`Latest` or `Checkpoint(id)`). `resume` is shorthand for
-`ResumeTarget::Latest`. Resuming from an older checkpoint replays its pending
-nodes forward (applying `command`'s resume value to any interrupted node)
-without rewriting history — new boundary checkpoints are appended to the thread.

-- direct or string conditional routes
-- recursion limit
-
-Target executor:
-
-- Pregel-like bulk synchronous parallel supersteps

-- deterministic write ordering before reducer application
-- reducer/channel updates at step boundaries
-- checkpoint after step completion
-- pending writes from completed tasks
-- cached writes replay without rerunning nodes
-- resume from checkpoint
-- recursive call tracking
-- child graph and child agent run tracking
-
-Superstep lifecycle:
-
-1. Load checkpoint, active tasks, and pending writes. On resume, a checkpoint
-   left mid-step by an interrupt/failure (see step 6 below and
-   `code-review-graph.md` C1/C2) reloads its `completed_tasks` too, not just
-   its pending set — those already-completed siblings are not re-run.
-2. Emit step started event.
-3. **Target (not implemented):** match cached task writes when cache policy
-   allows it — no `cache_policy`/cached-writes-replay mechanism (an explicit,
-   opt-in policy for replaying a *stored write's payload* instead of
-   re-running a node) exists in `crates/tinyagents-graph/src` today; every
-   *active* task still re-runs. What does exist, unconditionally, is a
-   narrower but load-bearing guarantee: a task that already **completed**
-   within the same still-in-progress superstep is never re-run just because
-   an interrupt/failure boundary was hit — see step 6.
-4. Run active tasks under concurrency, timeout, retry, and cancellation policy.
-   `State` is cloned at most once per superstep here (into an `Arc<State>`,
-   `code-review-graph.md` M2): every active task and every retry attempt of
-   one task shares that `Arc` via a cheap `Arc::clone` instead of a fresh
-   `State` clone per attempt/branch — see
-   [nodes.md](nodes.md#actual-handler-signature-and-state-cloning-m2).
-5. Collect writes, commands, sends, interrupts, and errors — every result,
-   not only the ones before the first stalled (errored/interrupted) branch
-   (`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/compiled/step.rs::fold_step`).
-6. Persist task writes as pending writes when checkpointing supports it. At an
-   interrupt/failure boundary this includes every branch that completed this
-   step (`Checkpoint::completed_tasks`), regardless of its index relative to
-   the stalled branch; only the stalled branch(es) become the resumed run's
-   pending set. A completed branch's *routing* (step 8) is deferred rather
-   than resolved here — resolving it before the stalled branches are known
-   would let a downstream node observe a state missing their eventual
-   updates — and is carried forward until the whole step finishes
-   (`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/compiled/boundary.rs::advance`'s
-   `carried_completed` handling).
-7. Apply channel reducers at the step boundary. An additive channel-per-field
-   state model does exist (`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/channel/`:
-   `Channel`, `ChannelSet`, `ChannelState`, with `LastValue`/`Topic`/
-   `Delta`/`Messages`/`Barrier`/`BinaryAggregate` merge strategies and
-   concurrent-write conflict detection), but there is no per-channel
-   **version** tracking (see checkpointing.md) — conflict detection is
-   step-stamped, not versioned.
-8. Select next active tasks from routing commands and `Send` fan-out.
-   (**Target:** selection specifically by "channel version changes" does not
-   apply, since channel versions are not tracked — see above.)
-9. Persist the checkpoint according to durability mode.
-10. Emit checkpoint, update, task, and step completion events.
-
-Checkpointing mid-node should be avoided. Async Rust stack suspension is not a
-stable persistence primitive; rerunning a node from the beginning is easier to
-reason about and matches interrupt semantics. A side effect a node performs
-*before* it pauses or fails can be made re-run-safe with
-`NodeContext::durable_task(key, fut)`, which memoises the sub-step's output
-per `(task_id, key)` in the checkpoint write ledger (see
-[builder.md](builder.md#nodecontextdurable_task)).
-
-## Stopping a run: cancellation and graceful drain
-
-Two run-level stop signals travel in `RunOptions` (accepted by
-`run_with_options`, `run_with_thread_options`, and `resume_with_options`);
-they differ only in what happens to the superstep in flight.
-
-```rust
-pub struct RunOptions {
-    pub cancellation: Option<tinyagents_harness::CancellationToken>,
-    pub drain: Option<tinyagents_graph::DrainSignal>,
-}
-
-let (handle, signal) = DrainSignal::new();
-let run = graph
-    .run_with_thread_options("thread-1", state, RunOptions::with_drain(signal))
-    .await?;
-// elsewhere, e.g. a shutdown hook or a node handler: handle.drain();
-```
-
-| | cancellation | drain |
-|---|---|---|
-| checked | before every superstep **and** raced against the step's handlers | before every superstep only |
-| step in flight | abandoned (nothing from it is trusted to have applied) | runs to completion; reducer and boundary checkpoint commit as normal |
-| checkpoint | pending = the whole active set | pending = the *next* step's activations, metadata `"drained": true` |
-| status / event | `ExecutionStatus::Cancelled`, `GraphEvent::RunCancelled` | `ExecutionStatus::Drained`, `GraphEvent::RunDrained { run_id, steps }` |
-| result | `Ok(GraphExecution)`, `drained: false` | `Ok(GraphExecution)`, `drained: true` |
-
-A drain is the graceful counterpart to cancellation: raise it from a shutdown
-hook (or from inside a node via a cloned `DrainHandle`) and the run finishes
-the work it has started, persists a checkpoint naming exactly what it did not
-start, and returns. `GraphExecution::drained` is `true` only on that path and
-`false` on every other outcome (completed, interrupted, failed, cancelled);
-`GraphRunStatus::is_terminal()` treats `Drained` like `Cancelled` — the run
-id will not advance on its own. `resume`/`retry` continue the thread from the
-drained checkpoint like any other pending-tasks checkpoint, reaching the same
-final state an undrained run would. A drain raised before the first step
-persists the entry activation and runs nothing; without a thread id the run
-still stops with `Drained` but has no checkpoint to persist against. The
-`Drop` guard and cancellation details are in
-[fault-tolerance.md](fault-tolerance.md#cooperative-cancellation).
-
-## Parallelization
-
-Parallel execution is represented as multiple active tasks in one superstep. A
-node can route to more than one next node through conditional routing, a
-command, or `Send` packets.
-
-```rust
-Command::new()
-    .update(update)
-    .goto([
-        Send::new("retrieve_docs", json!({ "query": "billing" })),
-        Send::new("retrieve_docs", json!({ "query": "refund" })),
-        Send::new("score_risk", json!({ "account_id": 42 })),
-    ])
-```
-
-Parallel execution rules:
-
-- all active nodes in a superstep read the same committed state snapshot
-- node-local reads may optionally include that node's own pending writes for
-  branch decisions
-- each node returns partial updates, commands, interrupts, sends, or errors
-- channels merge successful writes at the step boundary
-- conflicting writes produce reducer/channel errors, not arbitrary last-writer
-  behavior
-- a failed required node fails the step unless an error handler or policy routes
-  it elsewhere
-- completed writes can be preserved as pending writes when other nodes fail
-- concurrency is bounded by graph defaults and run config
-
-Parallelism must be visible in events. The `GraphEvent` enum actually shipped
-(`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/stream/types.rs`) uses `Node*` naming, not
-`Task*`, and has no cached-task variant:
-
-- `StepStarted { active: [...] }`
-- `TaskScheduled` (not `TaskStarted`)
-- `NodeStarted` / `NodeCompleted` / `NodeFailed` (not `TaskCompleted`/`TaskFailed`)
-- `NodeRetryScheduled`
-- **Target (not implemented):** `TaskCached` — no cached-write replay exists
-- `StateUpdated`
-- `RouteSelected`
-- `CheckpointSaved` / `CheckpointRestored`
-- `StepCompleted`
-
-For agent-specific fanout, forked runtime context, and shared-cache semantics,
-see [Parallel agents and context forking](parallel-agents-forking.md).

-# Graph Error Handling And Fault Tolerance
-
-The graph runtime survives transient network failures and makes a hard failure
-restartable, using two opt-in mechanisms plus the existing checkpoint/resume
-machinery.
-
-## Node retry (surviving network blips)
-
-`CompiledGraph::with_node_retry(RetryPolicy)` wraps every node handler. When a
-handler fails with a [retryable] error — `TinyAgentsError::Model` or
-`TinyAgentsError::Tool`, the transient class classified by
-`harness::retry::is_retryable` — the executor re-runs the node **from its start**
-up to the policy's `max_attempts`, emitting `GraphEvent::NodeRetryScheduled`
-before each retry. Because a node is never suspended mid-flight, a retry rebuilds
-the handler future and context from scratch, matching the durable-execution
-model.
-
-Backoff between attempts is computed from the `RetryPolicy` (exponential, with
-optional jitter) but only **slept on** when the policy opts in via
-`RetryPolicy::with_backoff_sleep(true)`. The default is sleep-free so unit tests
-stay deterministic; production callers enable it so retries wait a real, growing
-delay. The same opt-in switch governs the harness model-call retry loop and
-`RetryMiddleware`.
-
-Both the sequential and parallel runners drive handlers through one shared
-`run_node_with_retry` helper, which also applies the per-node timeout — so a
-retried attempt is still bounded by `node_timeout`.
-
-## Resumable failures (restarting / continuing after a hard failure)
-
-When a handler fails **beyond** the retry budget, or with a non-retryable error,
-the run is not lost. On a checkpointed thread the executor:
-
-1. folds the updates of the branches that completed *before* the failing one
-   into committed state (partial parallel progress is preserved, not discarded);
-2. persists a **failure-boundary checkpoint** whose `next_nodes` schedule the
-   failed node (and the not-yet-run tail of the step) for re-run, records the
-   successful nodes as `completed_tasks`, and stamps the rendered `error` and
-   `failed_node` into the checkpoint metadata;
-3. records a `Failed` run status carrying that checkpoint id;
-4. returns the error to the caller.
-
-Without a checkpointer/thread the run aborts immediately with the error, exactly
-as before — the failure checkpoint is a no-op.
-
-### Restarting and continuing
-
-Because `resume`/`resume_from` replay from a checkpoint's `next_nodes`, a failed
-run resumes exactly like an interrupted one:
-
-- `CompiledGraph::retry(thread)` — shorthand for `resume` with an empty command;
-  re-runs the failed node and the not-yet-run tail from the failure boundary.
-- **Continue on user feedback** — inspect committed state with `get_state`, edit
-  it with `update_state` (attributed through the reducers), then `retry`/`resume`.
-  The re-run sees the edited state.
-
-See the `resilient_graph` example (`cargo run --example resilient_graph`) for
-both mechanisms end to end.
-
-### Per-thread execution lease
-
-`CompiledGraph::execute` holds a per-`(thread_id, namespace)` lock for a run's
-whole lifetime: an in-process `ThreadLockMap` guard first (always active), and,
-when a checkpointer is configured, a durable lease claimed via
-`Checkpointer::try_claim`/`renew`/`release` (owner = run id, default TTL 5
-minutes). A second concurrent `run_with_thread`/`resume`/`retry` call for the
-same thread either waits on the in-process lock (same process) or is refused
-with `TinyAgentsError::Validation` if a live lease is held by another owner
-(cross-process). A lease whose owner crashed without releasing it is
-reclaimable once its TTL elapses. `DriverCheckpointer` and `InMemoryCheckpointer`
-both implement the lease; the trait's default is a no-op that always succeeds,
-so out-of-tree backends keep compiling unprotected.
-
-## Panic safety
-
-Each node handler future is polled through
-`futures::FutureExt::catch_unwind(AssertUnwindSafe(..))`. A panic inside a
-handler no longer unwinds through the executor: it is converted into
-`TinyAgentsError::Graph("node `{id}` panicked: {msg}")` and flows through the
-same resumable failure boundary as any other node error (checkpoint,
-`RunFailed` event, `Failed` status). `retry(thread)` re-runs the panicking
-node exactly as it would a node that returned `Err`.
-
-## Cooperative cancellation
-
-`RunOptions { cancellation: Option<tinyagents_harness::CancellationToken> }`
-carries an optional cancellation token into `CompiledGraph::run_with_options`,
-`run_with_thread_options`, and `resume_with_options`. The token is checked
-before every superstep and raced against that step's in-flight handler
-futures. On cancellation the executor persists a checkpoint whose
-`next_nodes` is the still-pending active set, records a `Cancelled` run
-status (and emits `GraphEvent::RunCancelled`), and returns `Ok` rather than
-an error — a cancelled run is resumable exactly like an interrupted one.
-
-`RunOptions::drain` (a `DrainSignal`, paired with the `DrainHandle` that
-raises it) is the graceful variant: it is checked only *between* supersteps,
-so the step in flight always completes and commits before the run stops with
-`ExecutionStatus::Drained` / `GraphEvent::RunDrained` and
-`GraphExecution::drained == true`. See
-[execution.md](execution.md#stopping-a-run-cancellation-and-graceful-drain)
-for the side-by-side contract.
-
-A `Drop` guard armed for the run's lifetime protects against the run future
-itself being dropped mid-flight (a host timeout racing `tokio::select!`,
-`JoinHandle::abort`, and similar). It disarms on every normal terminal exit
-(success, failure, interrupt, explicit cancel); if it is still armed when
-dropped, it best-effort persists a `Cancelled` status from a detached task so
-the run is never left stuck at `Running`. This is a status guarantee, not a
-full flush guarantee: an in-flight `AsyncCheckpointWrites` write already
-spawned before the drop still completes in the background (tokio does not
-abort a `JoinHandle`'s underlying task on drop), but the guard's own tracking
-of that write's outcome is lost.
-
-## Error taxonomy
-
-`TinyAgentsError` distinguishes structural/config errors (non-resumable) from
-node failures (resumable on a checkpointed thread):
-
-- structural / not retried, not resumable: missing start, missing node, missing
-  edge target, missing route, invalid command/parent/send target, recursion
-  limit, node-visit limit, sub-agent depth, checkpoint required/missing, resume
-  mismatch, reducer conflict, invalid concurrent update, serialization failure,
-  checkpoint backend failure;
-- transient / retryable and resumable: `Model`, `Tool` (and `Timeout` aborts the
-  node but leaves a resumable boundary like any other node failure).
-
-## Future work
-
-- Route node errors to a node-specific or default error-handler node.
-- Cooperative drain/shutdown with a drain reason.
-- Populate the checkpoint `pending_writes` list explicitly (today partial
-  progress is folded into committed state instead).
-- Renew the durable execution lease mid-run for long-running steps that could
-  outlive its TTL (today it is claimed once, at `execute` entry, and released
-  at exit — no heartbeat loop).
-- Force-drain (not just best-effort track) in-flight async checkpoint writes
-  from the run-future drop guard.

-# Graph Interrupts And Resume
-
-Interrupts pause execution and return control to the caller. Everything in
-this section — the `Interrupt` type, `Command::resume`/`resume_tasks`,
-`CompiledGraph::resume`/`resume_from`/`retry`, the `interrupt_before` /
-`interrupt_after` selectors, and `response_schema` validation — is
-implemented today (`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/command/`,
-`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/builder/mod.rs`,
-`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/compiled/{step,boundary,resume}.rs`). Only the
-"Targeted Human Steering" section at the end remains a target.
-
-The struct as shipped — `id` is a bare `String` (not `InterruptId`) and
-there is no `order` field; `task_id` is stamped by the interrupt boundary
-with the pausing branch's task id, and `response_schema` is optional:
-
-```rust
-pub struct Interrupt {
-    pub id: String,
-    pub node: NodeId,
-    pub payload: serde_json::Value,
-    pub task_id: Option<TaskId>,
-    pub response_schema: Option<serde_json::Value>,
-}
-```
-
-Resume API:
-
-```rust
-compiled_graph
-    .resume("support-123", Command::resume(json!({ "approved": true })))
-    .await?;
-```
-
-Rules:
-
-- interrupts require both a checkpointer and a `thread_id`
-- if a node emits an interrupt without resumable durability, the run returns a
-  resume error instead of an interrupted execution
-- interrupted executions are returned only after the checkpoint needed for
-  resume has been persisted
-- the interrupted node restarts from the beginning (a node-emitted interrupt
-  and an `interrupt_before` pause); an `interrupt_after` pause is the one
-  exception — the node already ran and its stored result is replayed instead
-- every branch of a step that interrupts is surfaced (`GraphExecution::interrupts`
-  carries all of them, not just the lowest-index one) — a `Send` fan-out of
-  one node interrupting on several concurrent activations is matched by task
-  id, each stamped onto its own `Interrupt::task_id`, rather than by an
-  `order` field
-- resume values as a map from task id to value: `Command::resume_tasks(..)` /
-  `Command::resume_by_task` deliver a distinct value per interrupted task in
-  one resume call, keyed by `TaskId` — `Command::resume(value)` (one value,
-  fanned to every task named by the checkpoint's stamped `interrupted_nodes`
-  or, absent that, to every pending task) still works and is consulted as the
-  fallback for any task the map does not name
-- **Target (not implemented):** resume values as a map keyed by interrupt id
-  specifically (rather than task id)
-- node code before an interrupt must be deterministic or idempotent, or
-  wrapped in `NodeContext::durable_task` (see
-  [builder.md](builder.md#nodecontextdurable_task)) so a side effect ahead of
-  the pause is memoised rather than repeated on the re-run
-
-## `interrupt_before` / `interrupt_after` selectors
-
-```rust
-GraphBuilder::<State, Update>::new()
-    // ...
-    .interrupt_before(["approve"])
-    .interrupt_after(["plan", "act"])   // needs Update: Serialize + DeserializeOwned
-    .mark_interrupt("review")           // alias for interrupt_before(["review"])
-```
-
-Executor-level pauses at named nodes, for debugging, approvals, and human
-review at arbitrary graph boundaries without editing node code. They are
-distinct from a node returning `NodeResult::Interrupt` itself: the executor
-injects the `Interrupt`, with payload `{"phase": "before"}` or
-`{"phase": "after"}`, stamped with the activation's task id, and persists the
-usual interrupt-boundary checkpoint (`has_interrupts: true` in
-`get_state_history`). Both selectors are validated at `compile()`
-(`TinyAgentsError::MissingNode` for an unknown node) and mark the node as an
-interrupt point in the topology export.
-
-`interrupt_before(nodes)` pauses *instead of* invoking a listed node's
-handler. The checkpoint's pending set is that activation; `resume` /
-`retry` re-schedules it and runs the handler normally, delivering any
-`Command::resume` value on `NodeContext::resume`. The handler runs exactly
-once overall.
-
-`interrupt_after(nodes)` lets the handler run to completion, then holds its
-`Update`/`Command` back from committed state: the result is serialized as a
-deferred-result write (`PendingWrite::interrupt_after`, control-plane idx
-`WRITES_IDX_INTERRUPT_AFTER`) in the checkpoint's `pending_writes`, the
-checkpoint's `state` and the returned `GraphExecution::state` are the
-*pre-update* state, and the node stays in the pending set. On resume the
-executor **replays** the stored result — decoding the update through the
-`Update` codec and honouring the node's `goto` — without invoking the
-handler again, so it still ran exactly once and nothing is lost. This is
-why `interrupt_after` requires `Update: Serialize + DeserializeOwned` (the
-same bound `CompiledGraph::with_cached_node` takes); `interrupt_before` has
-no such bound. A node that returns its own `NodeResult::Interrupt` is not
-paused a second time, and an `Err` passes through to the failure boundary.
-
-Acknowledgement: resuming a checkpoint acknowledges the executor-injected
-pauses it recorded (per `(phase, task_id)`), so the re-run skips that phase.
-The acks of a still-pending task are carried forward in checkpoint metadata
-(`acknowledged_interrupts`) across any later pause of the same task — an
-`interrupt_before` node that then pauses at `interrupt_after`, or emits its
-own interrupt, is not paused *before* again. `update_state` carries both the
-acks and the deferred-result write forward for tasks it leaves pending.
-
-`mark_interrupt(node)` is `interrupt_before([node])`: earlier versions set
-only the export marker, the runtime pause is now real.
-
-## `response_schema`
-
-```rust
-Interrupt::new("approve", json!({ "ask": "approve?" }))
-    .with_response_schema(json!({
-        "type": "object",
-        "required": ["approved"],
-        "properties": { "approved": { "type": "boolean" } }
-    }))
-```
-
-An interrupt can declare the JSON-schema subset (`type`, `required`,
-`properties`, `additionalProperties`, `items`, `enum`) its resume value must
-satisfy. `resume`/`resume_from` validate **fail-closed, before any
-checkpoint write**: the value each schema-bearing pending interrupt would
-receive — from `Command::resume_tasks` by task id, or `Command::resume`
-fanned out exactly as `NodeContext::resume` would be filled — is checked
-with `tinyagents_harness::tool::validate_against_schema` before the resumed
-run claims the thread. A mismatch returns `TinyAgentsError::Validation`
-naming the interrupt and the offending path, and the thread's latest
-checkpoint is untouched (same checkpoint id, same pending interrupt, no new
-history entry). A bare `retry()` delivers no value and validates nothing.
-`response_schema` is `None` by default and omitted from checkpoint JSON when
-unset, so legacy records decode unchanged.
-
-## Targeted Human Steering
-
-**Target (not implemented; see `docs/runtime-comparison/plan.md`).** Nothing
-below this point — `ResumeTarget` as a targeted-steering struct,
-`resume_targeted`, or per-run/per-task/per-namespace resume routing — exists
-in `crates/tinyagents-graph/src` today. The `ResumeTarget` type that does
-exist (`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/compiled/types.rs`) is unrelated: it is a
-`Latest`/`Checkpoint(CheckpointId)` enum selecting which checkpoint a resume
-replays from, not a target-selection struct with `run_id`/`task_id`/
-`interrupt_id`/`namespace` fields.
-
-Human input during an interrupt is one form of steering. A control surface
-should be able to target:
-
-- the parent orchestrator run
-- a specific child sub-agent run
-- a graph task id
-- a node namespace inside a subgraph
-- a specific interrupt id
-
-Targeted resume shape:
-
-```rust
-pub struct ResumeTarget {
-    pub run_id: RunId,
-    pub task_id: Option<TaskId>,
-    pub interrupt_id: Option<InterruptId>,
-    pub namespace: Vec<String>,
-}
-
-compiled_graph
-    .resume_targeted(
-        ResumeTarget {
-            run_id,
-            task_id: Some(child_task),
-            interrupt_id: Some(approval_interrupt),
-            namespace: vec!["supervisor".into(), "research_agent".into()],
-        },
-        Command::resume(json!({ "approved": true })),
-    )
-    .await?;
-```
-
-Rules:
-
-- resuming a child interrupt resumes that child task, not all paused siblings
-- resuming the parent orchestrator may leave child interrupts pending unless
-  policy cancels or resolves them
-- a human can add steering instructions while resuming, but those instructions
-  must be recorded separately from the interrupt answer
-- stale resume targets are rejected with the latest run/checkpoint metadata
-- UI clients should present pending interrupts with run tree path, node id,
-  task id, sub-agent id, and checkpoint id so humans can steer the intended
-  target

-# Graph Memory And Stores Boundary
-
-Graph checkpointing is short-term execution persistence. Harness memory and
-stores are separate concerns.
-
-LangGraph makes this distinction directly:
-
-- checkpointers store graph state by thread and checkpoint id
-- stores provide long-term memory across threads and conversations, with
-  hierarchical namespaces, metadata, and optional vector search
-
-Graph owns:
-
-- checkpoints
-- channel values
-- channel versions
-- pending writes
-- active tasks
-- interrupts
-- state history and forks
-
-Harness/store owns:
-
-- chat history storage
-- semantic memory
-- user/application records
-- model/tool artifacts
-- usage and cost records
-- provider traces
-
-The graph can pass a `StoreRegistry` through `GraphContext`, but graph execution
-must not assume any specific store backend.

-# Graph Node Model
-
-Nodes are async units of work. They receive a state view plus runtime context
-and return an update, command, interrupt, or no-op.
-
-```rust
-#[async_trait]
-pub trait GraphNode<State, Ctx = ()>: Send + Sync {
-    async fn run(
-        &self,
-        state: StateView<'_, State>,
-        ctx: &mut GraphContext<Ctx>,
-    ) -> Result<NodeResult>;
-}
-
-pub enum NodeResult {
-    Update(StateUpdate),
-    Command(Command),
-    Interrupt(Interrupt),
-    None,
-}
-```
-
-Closure-backed nodes stay as an ergonomic adapter:
-
-```rust
-Node::new("agent", |state| async move {
-    Ok(NodeOutput::continue_with(state))
-})
-```
-
-Target node spec:
-
-```rust
-pub struct NodeSpec<State, Ctx = ()> {
-    pub id: NodeId,
-    pub node: Arc<dyn GraphNode<State, Ctx>>,
-    pub input: ChannelSelection,
-    pub destinations: Option<DestinationHints>,
-    pub metadata: serde_json::Value,
-    pub defer: bool,
-    pub retry: Option<RetryPolicy>,
-    pub cache: Option<CachePolicy>,
-    pub timeout: Option<TimeoutPolicy>,
-    pub error_handler: Option<NodeId>,
-    pub is_error_handler: bool,
-}
-```
-
-Important node kinds:
-
-- closure node
-- trait-backed node
-- harness model/tool/agent-loop node
-- sub-agent node
-- subgraph node
-- router node
-- error-handler node
-- test node
-
-Deferred nodes run near graph termination, after normal active work is drained.
-Use them for cleanup, final scoring, final summarization, or output shaping.
-
-## Actual handler signature and state cloning (M2)
-
-The shipped `NodeHandler<State, Update>` (`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/builder/types.rs`)
-is `Fn(Arc<State>, NodeContext) -> NodeFuture<Update>` — every handler
-receives the step's committed state as an `Arc<State>`, not an owned
-`State`. This is `docs/runtime-comparison/code-review-graph.md` finding M2:
-before it, the executor cloned `State` once per handler invocation (every
-retry attempt, every parallel `Send`/fan-out branch), so an N-way fan-out
-with retries could clone the whole state many times in a single superstep.
-Now `StepRunner::run_step` (`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/compiled/step.rs`)
-clones `State` **at most once per superstep**, into that `Arc`; every
-branch/attempt within the step shares it via a cheap `Arc::clone`.
-
-Two builder entry points wire a closure into a node:
-
-- `GraphBuilder::add_node(id, |state: State, ctx| async { .. })` — the
-  by-value convenience form kept for source compatibility. It is a thin
-  adapter that clones out of the `Arc` once per invocation, so every
-  existing handler written against the pre-M2 signature still compiles
-  unchanged.
-- `GraphBuilder::add_node_shared(id, |state: Arc<State>, ctx| async { .. })`
-  — the zero-clone form. Prefer it for a node with a large `State` (e.g. one
-  carrying message history) or one that only reads its state; it forwards
-  the step's `Arc<State>` directly with no clone at all.
-
-`NodeContext::send_arg` (the per-invocation `Send` argument) is likewise
-`Option<Arc<serde_json::Value>>` rather than `Option<serde_json::Value>`, so
-a repeated `Send` fan-out of the same node and every retry of one activation
-share the argument's allocation too. It serializes exactly like a bare
-`serde_json::Value` in checkpoint records (serde's `Arc<T>` impl is
-transparent), so on-disk format is unaffected.

-# Graph Observability And Tracing
-
-LangGraph has several observability surfaces:
-
-- stream modes for values, updates, messages, custom data, checkpoints, tasks,
-  debug payloads, and execution events
-- `debug` streams that wrap checkpoint, task, and task-result payloads with step
-  and timestamp metadata
-- callback/tracing integration through the LangChain callback manager
-- `ls_integration = "langgraph"` metadata so traces can identify LangGraph runs
-- graph lifecycle callbacks for interrupt and resume events
-- LangSmith tracing configuration in the SDK
-- thread-level stream modes for run lifecycle and state updates
-- nested namespace propagation for subgraph streams
-
-TinyAgents should expose observability as a graph feature, not only as a side
-effect of streaming. Streaming is the transport; observability is the semantic
-contract for what every run, step, task, checkpoint, interrupt, subgraph, and
-child agent must report.
-
-## Execution Status Store
-
-Graph runs need a readable status surface in addition to transient event
-streams. A caller, web UI, supervisor, or test should be able to ask what a graph
-is doing without holding the original stream handle.
-
-The graph runtime should write a compact status record at every execution
-boundary:
-
-```rust
-pub struct GraphRunStatus {
-    pub run_id: RunId,
-    pub root_run_id: RunId,
-    pub parent_run_id: Option<RunId>,
-    pub thread_id: Option<ThreadId>,
-    pub graph_id: GraphId,
-    pub checkpoint_id: Option<CheckpointId>,
-    pub checkpoint_namespace: Vec<String>,
-    pub status: ExecutionStatus,
-    pub current_step: usize,
-    pub active_nodes: Vec<NodeId>,
-    pub pending_interrupts: Vec<InterruptId>,
-    pub last_event_id: Option<EventId>,
-    pub started_at: SystemTime,
-    pub updated_at: SystemTime,
-    pub ended_at: Option<SystemTime>,
-    pub error: Option<GraphErrorSummary>,
-    pub metadata: serde_json::Value,
-}
-
-pub enum ExecutionStatus {
-    Pending,
-    Running,
-    Waiting,
-    Interrupted,
-    Draining,
-    Completed,
-    Failed,
-    Cancelled,
-}
-```
-
-Required status transitions:
-
-- `Pending` before the first step is scheduled.
-- `Running` while one or more graph tasks are executing.
-- `Waiting` when the executor is idle but expects more work, such as async
-  checkpoint persistence or external resume input.
-- `Interrupted` when a human-in-the-loop interrupt has been emitted and the run
-  cannot continue without a resume command.
-- `Draining` after cancellation or failure while child tasks, streams, and
-  checkpoint writes are closing.
-- `Completed`, `Failed`, or `Cancelled` as terminal states.
-
-The status store is not a replacement for checkpoints. Checkpoints preserve
-resumable state; status records summarize live and recent execution for
-observers. A checkpointer may persist status records in the same backend, but
-the API should keep `Checkpointer` and `GraphStatusStore` separate.
-
-```rust
-#[async_trait]
-pub trait GraphStatusStore: Send + Sync {
-    async fn put_status(&self, status: GraphRunStatus) -> Result<()>;
-    async fn get_status(&self, run_id: RunId) -> Result<Option<GraphRunStatus>>;
-    async fn list_by_thread(&self, thread_id: ThreadId) -> Result<Vec<GraphRunStatus>>;
-}
-```
-
-Status writes should be idempotent by `run_id` and monotonic by `updated_at` or
-step. Readers must never need to deserialize full graph state to answer basic
-questions such as "is this run still active?", "which node is executing?", or
-"which interrupt is waiting?".
-
-Run-level latency can be derived from `started_at` and either `ended_at` or
-`updated_at`. This status-derived view is compact and cheap, but detailed step
-and node latency comes from durable observations.
-
-## Observability Event Model
-
-Every graph event should carry stable envelope data:
-
-```rust
-pub struct GraphObservation {
-    pub event_id: EventId,
-    pub run_id: RunId,
-    pub root_run_id: RunId,
-    pub parent_run_id: Option<RunId>,
-    pub thread_id: Option<ThreadId>,
-    pub checkpoint_id: Option<CheckpointId>,
-    pub checkpoint_namespace: Vec<String>,
-    pub graph_id: GraphId,
-    pub node_id: Option<NodeId>,
-    pub task_id: Option<TaskId>,
-    pub step: Option<usize>,
-    pub time: SystemTime,
-    pub tags: Vec<String>,
-    pub metadata: serde_json::Value,
-    pub kind: GraphObservationKind,
-}
-```
-
-Required observation kinds:
-
-- `graph.started`
-- `graph.completed`
-- `graph.failed`
-- `graph.draining`
-- `step.started`
-- `step.completed`
-- `task.started`
-- `task.completed`
-- `task.failed`
-- `task.cached`
-- `state.updated`
-- `route.selected`
-- `checkpoint.saved`
-- `checkpoint.loaded`
-- `interrupt.emitted`
-- `interrupt.resumed`
-- `subgraph.started`
-- `subgraph.completed`
-- `subagent.started`
-- `subagent.completed`
-- `stream.opened`
-- `stream.closed`
-- `debug.payload`
-
-## Latency Metrics
-
-The observability module exposes `GraphLatencyMetrics` for durable graph
-latency rollups. Metrics are derived from `GraphObservation` timestamps, so a
-late UI or supervisor can compute them from the event journal without holding
-the original in-process stream.
-
-Graph latency metrics include:
-
-- `run_elapsed_ms`: first `run.started` to first terminal `run.completed` or
-  `run.failed`
-- step latency: `step.started` to `step.completed`, correlated by superstep
-- node latency: `node.started` to `node.completed` or `node.failed`,
-  correlated by `(node_id, step)`
-- total, max, and average latency helpers for completed steps
-- total, max, and average latency helpers for completed node handlers
-
-```rust
-let observations = journal.read_from(run_id, 0).await?;
-let metrics = GraphLatencyMetrics::from_observations(&observations);
-
-let run_ms = metrics.run_elapsed_ms;
-let slowest_node_ms = metrics.max_node_ms;
-let average_step_ms = metrics.average_step_ms();
-```
-
-Incomplete work is ignored. A `step.started` without `step.completed`, or a
-`node.started` without `node.completed` / `node.failed`, does not produce a
-latency record because there is no terminal timestamp. Failed nodes are retained
-with `failed = true` so dashboards can separate slow successes from slow
-failures.
-
-### Node / Tool Health
-
-A graph node is the graph's unit of work and is frequently a delegated agent or
-tool call (`SubAgentNode`), so per-node success/failure counts double as **tool
-health** telemetry. `GraphHealthSummary::from_observations` rolls the same
-durable stream into:
-
-- `total_started` / `total_completed` / `total_failed` node counts
-- `run_failed` — whether the run emitted `run.failed`
-- a per-node `GraphNodeHealth` entry (`started`, `completed`, `failed`), sorted
-  by node id, with `failure_rate()` and `is_healthy()` helpers
-- `is_healthy()`, `failure_rate()`, and `unhealthy_nodes()` at the run level
-
-```rust
-let observations = journal.read_from(run_id, 0).await?;
-let health = GraphHealthSummary::from_observations(&observations);
-
-if !health.is_healthy() {
-    for node in health.unhealthy_nodes() {
-        eprintln!("{} failed {}x", node.node.as_str(), node.failed);
-    }
-}
-```
-
-The summary is attached to the Langfuse trace metadata (below) so it is visible
-alongside the exported spans.
-
-## Event Journal And Listener Replay
-
-Outside listeners need two paths:
-
-- live subscription for events emitted after the listener attaches
-- replay from a durable offset for events that were emitted earlier
-
-The graph should therefore support an append-only event journal when configured.
-Each journal record should include the observation envelope, stream namespace,
-monotonic offset, and redaction status. Consumers can store the last seen offset
-and resume later without inspecting checkpoints.
-
-```rust
-#[async_trait]
-pub trait GraphEventJournal: Send + Sync {
-    async fn append(&self, observation: GraphObservation) -> Result<EventOffset>;
-    async fn read_from(
-        &self,
-        run_id: RunId,
-        offset: EventOffset,
-    ) -> Result<Vec<GraphObservationRecord>>;
-}
-```
-
-Live listeners should be registered against filters rather than ad hoc callback
-closures:
-
-- run id, root run id, thread id, graph id, node id, or namespace
-- event kind families such as graph, step, task, state, checkpoint, interrupt,
-  subgraph, sub-agent, harness child, or debug
-- redaction profile
-- replay offset
-
-Listener delivery is best-effort by default. If a deployment requires durable
-delivery, the listener should read from the event journal and acknowledge
-offsets outside the graph executor.
-
-### Implementation status (runtime-comparison Phase 3, C3/G-M7)
-
-`GraphEventJournal`/`GraphObservation`/`JournalGraphSink` already exist as
-described above (offset-addressable, best-effort delivery). Two additions
-this phase:
-
-- **`JournalGraphSink::dropped()`** (G-M7) exposes the count of observations
-  dropped because the background drain's bounded queue was full when they
-  were submitted — the lossy-under-load behavior was already real (`emit`
-  never blocks the executor on I/O) but previously had no way to detect it
-  happened. A non-zero value means the journal for that run is an
-  incomplete record; size the drain capacity for the workload, or poll this
-  counter and alert, rather than assume completeness.
-- **`GraphEventSink::emit` now takes a `GraphEventEnvelope`**, not a bare
-  `GraphEvent` — see `docs/modules/graph/streaming.md`'s "Implementation
-  status" for `run_id`/`task_id`/`ns`/`seq`. `JournalGraphSink` unwraps the
-  envelope's `event` for its own `GraphObservation` (which keeps its own
-  independent `run_id`/`namespace`/`offset`, configured at sink construction)
-  and forwards the whole envelope to any configured `inner` live sink.
-
-## Observability Cache
-
-Some observability projections are expensive or repetitive to compute. The graph
-module should permit cache-backed projections without making cached data the
-source of truth.
-
-Cacheable graph observability records include:
-
-- latest status by run id
-- latest status by thread id
-- node/task timing rollups
-- graph latency rollups from durable observations
-- latest state-update summary per step
-- checkpoint metadata summaries
-- visualization/introspection snapshots
-- listener replay cursors for test and UI adapters
-
-Cache records must include source coordinates: run id, checkpoint id,
-checkpoint namespace, step, event offset, and projection version. If any source
-coordinate changes, the projection is stale and must be recomputed.
-
-## Trace Integration
-
-Graph tracing should support:
-
-- run names
-- run ids supplied by callers
-- inherited root and parent run ids
-- tags and metadata
-- per-node/task timing
-- retry and cache metadata
-- checkpoint ids and checkpoint namespaces
-- graph recursion depth
-- subgraph namespace paths
-- child harness model/tool events linked to the graph node/task that emitted
-  them
-
-The graph should not require a specific tracing backend. It should expose typed
-events and adapters:
-
-- no-op observer
-- in-memory observer for tests
-- JSONL observer for local debugging
-- tracing-span adapter
-- a Langfuse ingestion exporter (`GraphLangfuseExporter`, see below)
-- OpenTelemetry adapter later
-- LangSmith-compatible exporter later
-
-## Langfuse Export
-
-`GraphLangfuseExporter` is the concrete, implemented exporter for the Langfuse
-ingestion API. It is pull-based and best-effort: read a run's observations back
-from a journal, build a batch, and send it — it never sits on the executor hot
-path.
-
-The exporter reuses the harness `LangfuseClient` for transport (Basic or Bearer
-auth, endpoint normalization, `207 Multi-Status` handling), so a single set of
-credentials serves both the agent and graph sides:
-
-```rust
-let exporter = GraphLangfuseExporter::from_env()?; // or ::new(client)
-let observations = journal.read_from(run_id, 0).await?;
-exporter
-    .send_observations(LangfuseTraceConfig::default(), &observations)
-    .await?;
-```
-
-Hosts that provide their own transport can call
-`tinyagents_graph::build_graph_langfuse_batch(trace, &observations, metadata_fn)`.
-This pure builder requires no `LangfuseClient`, credentials, environment
-variables, or network access. It returns the same ingestion payload used by
-`GraphLangfuseExporter`, including graph hierarchy and health metadata. The
-optional span metadata hook follows the exporter's override rules. An empty
-journal returns a validation error. The host then hands the payload to its
-own export sink, retaining ownership of endpoint and authentication policy.
-
-The batch maps the graph run onto Langfuse's trace/observation model:
-
-- one `trace-create` (id defaults to the run's `root_run_id`; name defaults to
-  the `graph_id`; session defaults to the run's `thread_id`) with the
-  `GraphHealthSummary` folded into trace metadata
-- one structural `span-create` for the graph run (`{trace}:run:{run_id}`, named
-  for the `graph_id`), parented to the trace, bracketing the whole run
-- one timed `span-create` per superstep (`{trace}:step:{n}`), parented to the
-  graph-run span
-- one timed `span-create` per node handler (`{trace}:node:{name}:{step}`),
-  parented to its superstep span; `node.failed` promotes the span to `ERROR`
-  level with the rendered error as `statusMessage`
-- one timed `span-create` per embedded subgraph, parented to the graph-run span
-- an `event-create` for every remaining observation (routes, checkpoints,
-  interrupts, custom writes, run lifecycle), parented to the graph-run span,
-  with `run.failed` mapped to `ERROR`
-
-Still-running work (a `node.started` with no terminal event) is exported as an
-open span with a start time but no end time.
-
-### Unified Traces With Agents And Tools
-
-Because a graph run and the agent runs its nodes spawn share the same
-`root_run_id`, and both the graph and harness exporters default their `traceId`
-to that root run id, exporting a graph run **and** its child agent runs lands
-every graph step, node, model generation, and tool call under one Langfuse
-trace. This is what makes full end-to-end telemetry — including tool health and
-tool timing — visible in a single trace tree.
-
-The nesting is exact, not just co-located: the graph-run span
-(`{trace}:run:{run_id}`) uses the same id scheme the harness exporter parents
-its agent run spans to. A sub-agent a node spawns carries `parent_run_id` equal
-to the graph run id, so its harness-exported run span resolves to
-`{trace}:run:{graph_run_id}` and nests directly under the graph-run span rather
-than floating at the trace root — the graph, its nodes, and their agents form
-one contiguous tree.
-
-## Debug Payloads
-
-Debug streams are for executor introspection. They should be structured enough
-for tests and UIs, but they are allowed to expose implementation details that
-normal event consumers do not need.
-
-Debug payloads should include:
-
-- checkpoint payloads with state values, next nodes, tasks, metadata, and parent
-  config
-- task start payloads with task id, node name, input, triggers, and metadata
-- task result payloads with task id, node name, error, interrupts, and writes
-- step number and timestamp for every debug item
-
-## Thread-Level Observability
-
-Server and SDK use cases need thread-level observation in addition to run-level
-streams. The graph layer should make it possible to subscribe to:
-
-- run modes plus run completion events
-- lifecycle only
-- state updates only
-
-This is separate from a single graph run stream. Thread streams watch a durable
-thread as runs are created, resumed, interrupted, updated, or completed.
-
-## Redaction And Export
-
-Observation sinks must support redaction at export boundaries. Internal graph
-events may include full state updates and task inputs; persistent or remote
-observers may need to redact:
-
-- state values
-- model messages
-- tool arguments/results
-- store keys
-- checkpoint metadata
-- provider payloads
-- user identifiers
-- secrets and credentials
-
-Redaction must preserve structural fields such as ids, node names, step numbers,
-event kinds, timings, and checkpoint coordinates so traces remain useful.

-# Graph Parallel Agents And Context Forking
-
-Parallel agents are a graph pattern where one supervisor node starts multiple
-child agents in the same superstep, lets them work from the same committed
-state, and merges their outputs through normal graph reducers.
-
-Context forking is the runtime mechanism that makes this safe. A fork creates a
-child task context from the current graph context. The child receives shared
-read-only runtime dependencies, including cache and stores, while getting its
-own task id, node id, event namespace, cancellation scope, and mutable scratch
-space.
-
-This pattern is intended for workflows such as:
-
-- run two specialist sub-agents against the same user request
-- compare two strategies and merge the better result
-- dispatch research and verification agents in parallel
-- fan out over multiple tools or retrievers while reusing cached model/tool
-  calls
-- run a critique agent and a builder agent from the same initial context
-
-## Target Shape
-
-```rust
-pub struct ContextForkOptions {
-    pub node: NodeId,
-    pub task_name: Option<String>,
-    pub namespace_label: Option<String>,
-    pub input: serde_json::Value,
-    pub cache: CacheForkPolicy,
-    pub stores: StoreForkPolicy,
-    pub timeout: Option<TimeoutPolicy>,
-    pub metadata: serde_json::Value,
-}
-
-pub enum CacheForkPolicy {
-    InheritReadWrite,
-    InheritReadOnly,
-    Isolated,
-}
-
-pub enum StoreForkPolicy {
-    Inherit,
-    IsolatedNamespace(StoreNamespace),
-}
-```
-
-Default behavior should be `InheritReadWrite` for cache and `Inherit` for
-stores. That lets parallel child agents reuse expensive cached model/tool
-results while still writing their own child-run events and outputs.
-
-## Parallel Sub-Agent Fanout
-
-A supervisor node can spawn two sub-agents by returning `Send` packets or a
-command with multiple destinations:
-
-```rust
-Command::new()
-    .goto([
-        Send::new("research_agent", json!({ "question": state.question })),
-        Send::new("critic_agent", json!({ "question": state.question })),
-    ])
-```
-
-Each child agent runs as a separate graph task:
-
-- unique child `task_id`
-- unique child `run_id`
-- shared `root_run_id`
-- parent run id set to the supervisor task run
-- namespace such as `supervisor:<task_id>/research_agent:<task_id>`
-- inherited `thread_id`
-- inherited checkpointer according to subgraph/sub-agent policy
-- inherited cache handle according to `CacheForkPolicy`
-- inherited stores according to `StoreForkPolicy`
-
-The children must not mutate the parent state directly. They return writes that
-are merged at the superstep boundary by channels/reducers.
-
-## Forked Context Contract
-
-Forking a context copies identity and dependency handles deliberately:
-
-Shared across forks:
-
-- root run id
-- thread id
-- immutable user context
-- store registry unless isolated by policy
-- cache handle unless isolated by policy
-- event sink
-- stream sink
-- cancellation parent
-- budget counters when policy says children share budget
-
-Unique per fork:
-
-- task id
-- node id
-- child run id
-- checkpoint namespace suffix
-- event namespace
-- recursion frame
-- mutable scratchpad
-- task-local resume values
-- task-local pending writes
-
-The fork must be cheap. It should clone `Arc` handles for shared services rather
-than copying stores, cache contents, or large state snapshots.
-
-## Shared Cache Semantics
-
-Parallel agents should be able to reuse cache entries produced before the fork
-and entries produced by sibling forks when durability policy allows it.
-
-Rules:
-
-- cache keys must include the called component, normalized input, relevant
-  config, provider/model id, tool version, and cache namespace
-- cache keys must not include child task ids unless the cached result is
-  intentionally task-local
-- child cache writes are visible to sibling forks only after the cache backend
-  commits them
-- cache hits are emitted as task events with `TaskCached`
-- cached task writes are replayed through graph writes, not injected as final
-  parent state
-- cache failures do not fail the child task unless cache is marked required
-
-This allows two sub-agents to share expensive retrieval, embedding, prompt,
-model, or tool results without sharing mutable state.
-
-## Merge Semantics
-
-Parallel child outputs merge through state channels:
-
-- independent fields use `LastValue` only when a single writer is guaranteed
-- lists use append or topic reducers
-- ranked candidates use custom merge reducers
-- chat messages use message merge by id
-- conflicting writes fail with an invalid concurrent update unless a reducer
-  defines deterministic resolution
-
-Example:
-
-```rust
-pub struct AgentFanoutUpdate {
-    pub candidates: Vec<CandidateAnswer>,
-    pub critiques: Vec<Critique>,
-    pub usage: UsageDelta,
-}
-```
-
-The parent graph should have reducers that append `candidates`, append
-`critiques`, and aggregate `usage`.
-
-## Checkpointing
-
-Forked child tasks participate in normal checkpointing:
-
-- task start appears in checkpoint task metadata
-- completed child writes can be persisted as pending writes
-- child checkpoints include namespace and parent checkpoint config
-
-"Failed sibling tasks do not force successful child agents to rerun once
-pending writes are saved" and "resuming from interrupt restarts the
-interrupted child task, not unrelated completed siblings" hold today (fixed
-per `code-review-graph.md` Critical C1/C2; see
-`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/compiled/step.rs::fold_step` and
-`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/compiled/boundary.rs::advance`). When a parallel
-step interrupts or fails at branch index `i`, every branch that completed —
-regardless of whether its index is above or below `i` — is folded into
-committed state and is **not** re-run on resume/retry; only the
-interrupted/failed branch(es) become the resumed run's pending set. A
-completed branch's own routing is deferred (not resolved at the interrupt/
-failure boundary itself) rather than dropped: it is carried forward in the
-checkpoint's `completed_tasks` and routed together with the rest of that
-step's results once the pending branches finish, so a downstream node sees
-the same merged state an uninterrupted run would have produced. One caveat: a
-carried-forward branch's routing is re-resolved via static/conditional edges
-only — an explicit `Command::goto` it returned is not itself persisted across
-the boundary. Regression coverage:
-`higher_index_completed_sibling_not_rerun_after_interrupt_then_resume`,
-`higher_index_completed_sibling_not_rerun_after_failure_then_retry`, and
-`interrupted_and_uninterrupted_runs_reach_the_same_state`
-(`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/compiled/mod_tests.rs`).
-
-If a forked sub-agent interrupts, the parent run should surface the interrupt
-with enough namespace information to resume the correct child.
-
-## Observability
-
-Parallel agents must be visible as distinct child runs, not hidden futures.
-
-Required events:
-
-- `ContextForked`
-- `SubAgentStarted`
-- `TaskStarted`
-- `TaskCached`
-- `TaskCompleted`
-- `TaskFailed`
-- `SubAgentCompleted`
-- `ContextForkJoined`
-- `StateUpdated`
-
-Every event must include:
-
-- root run id
-- parent run id
-- child run id
-- task id
-- node id
-- namespace
-- recursion depth
-- checkpoint id when available
-
-UIs should be able to render the supervisor task with two child sub-agent lanes,
-their streamed messages, cache hits, writes, and final reducer merge.
-
-## Failure And Cancellation
-
-Default policy:
-
-- required child failure fails the superstep
-- optional child failure records an error update and lets siblings complete
-- parent cancellation cancels all children
-- child timeout fails only that child unless policy escalates
-- successful sibling writes can be preserved as pending writes
-
-Future policies:
-
-- race: first successful child wins and cancels siblings
-- quorum: continue when N of M children succeed
-- compare: require all children, then run a judge node
-- fallback: run secondary agent only if primary fails
-
-These should be explicit policies, not implicit behavior hidden in node code.
-
-## Reusable map/reduce helper {#map-reduce}
-
-`graph::parallel::map_reduce` is a standalone helper — independent of the graph
-executor — for the common "run N items concurrently and reduce the results"
-pattern. Where `Send` fanout is the low-level superstep primitive, `map_reduce`
-gives a reusable async function with deterministic input-order results, a
-concurrency cap, per-item success/failure isolation, and a configurable failure
-policy:
-
-```rust
-pub async fn map_reduce<I, T, F, Fut>(
-    items: Vec<I>,
-    options: ParallelOptions,
-    f: F,
-) -> Result<ParallelOutcome<T>>
-where
-    F: Fn(usize, I) -> Fut,
-    Fut: Future<Output = Result<T>>;
-```
-
-`f` receives each item's 0-based input index and the item. Results are collected
-into a `ParallelOutcome<T>` of per-item `ItemOutcome<T>` values **in input order**
-regardless of completion order (concurrency is driven by an ordered buffered
-stream). `ParallelOutcome` exposes `success_count`, `failure_count`, `successes`,
-and `into_successes`.
-
-### Failure policy
-
-`FailurePolicy` decides what happens when items fail:
-
-- `FailFast` — stop at the first failing item (in input order) and return its
-  error; remaining in-flight work is dropped.
-- `CollectAll` (default) — run every item to completion, always return `Ok`,
-  recording per-item success/failure for the caller to inspect.
-- `Quorum(n)` — run every item; return `TinyAgentsError::Graph` unless at least
-  `n` items succeeded.
-- `BestEffort` — always `Ok`, silently keeping only the successful outputs.
-
-### Execution controls
-
-`ParallelOptions` is a builder. It is `Clone` (no longer `Copy`) because it can
-hold a cancellation token.
-
-| Builder | Effect |
-| --- | --- |
-| `with_max_concurrency(n)` | Cap simultaneous items (`0` = unbounded). |
-| `with_failure_policy(p)` | Set the `FailurePolicy`. |
-| `with_item_timeout(dur)` | Per-item wall-clock bound; a slow item becomes a recoverable per-item failure (then handled by the policy) rather than stalling the batch. |
-| `with_total_timeout(dur)` | Overall wall-clock bound; on elapse the call returns `TinyAgentsError::Timeout` and drops remaining in-flight work. |
-| `with_cancellation(token)` | Attach a cooperative `CancellationToken`; when cancelled the call returns `TinyAgentsError::Cancelled` and drops in-flight work. |
-
-Per-item timeout — a slow item fails in isolation while fast items still
-succeed:
-
-```rust
-use tinyagents_graph::parallel::{map_reduce, FailurePolicy, ParallelOptions};
-use tinyagents_harness::TinyAgentsError;
-
-// Item 1 hangs; a 50ms per-item timeout turns it into a recoverable failure.
-let out = map_reduce(
-    vec![0u64, 3_600_000, 0],
-    ParallelOptions::default()
-        .with_failure_policy(FailurePolicy::CollectAll)
-        .with_item_timeout(std::time::Duration::from_millis(50)),
-    |_i, ms| async move {
-        tokio::time::sleep(std::time::Duration::from_millis(ms)).await;
-        Ok::<_, TinyAgentsError>(ms)
-    },
-)
-.await?;
-assert_eq!(out.success_count(), 2);
-assert_eq!(out.failure_count(), 1); // the hanging item timed out
-```
-
-Total timeout — the whole batch aborts and drops in-flight work:
-
-```rust
-let err = map_reduce(
-    vec![3_600_000u64],
-    ParallelOptions::default().with_total_timeout(std::time::Duration::from_millis(20)),
-    |_i, ms| async move {
-        tokio::time::sleep(std::time::Duration::from_millis(ms)).await;
-        Ok::<_, TinyAgentsError>(ms)
-    },
-)
-.await
-.expect_err("total timeout aborts the batch");
-assert!(matches!(err, TinyAgentsError::Timeout(_)));
-```
-
-Cancellation — a cancelled token stops the batch:
-
-```rust
-use tinyagents_harness::CancellationToken;
-
-let token = CancellationToken::new();
-token.cancel();
-let err = map_reduce(
-    vec![0u64],
-    ParallelOptions::default().with_cancellation(token),
-    |_i, _n| async move {
-        tokio::time::sleep(std::time::Duration::from_secs(3600)).await;
-        Ok::<_, TinyAgentsError>(0u64)
-    },
-)
-.await
-.expect_err("a cancelled token aborts");
-assert!(matches!(err, TinyAgentsError::Cancelled));
-```

-# Graph Edges, Routing, Commands, And Sends
-
-Reserved virtual nodes:
-
-- `START`
-- `END`
-
-Direct edge:
-
-```text
-START -> agent
-agent -> summarize
-summarize -> END
-```
-
-Conditional edge:
-
-```text
-agent --tool--> tools
-agent --final--> END
-tools ---------> agent
-```
-
-Waiting/barrier edge:
-
-```text
-retrieve_docs --\
-lookup_user  ----> synthesize
-score_risk   --/
-```
-
-Command routing:
-
-```rust
-Command::new()
-    .update(update)
-    .goto(["tools"])
-```
-
-Router closures may return any `impl ToString` (plain `&str`/`String`, or a
-user-defined enum implementing `Display`), for example:
-
-```rust
-enum AgentRoute {
-    Tool,
-    Final,
-}
-```
-
-Internally, route labels are represented as a `Route` newtype (with
-`From<Route> for String` / `From<String> for Route` / `From<&str> for
-Route`), so `RouterFn`'s public signature stays `Fn(&State) -> R where R:
-ToString` — existing closures returning `String` keep compiling unchanged.
-`GraphBuilder::add_conditional_edges_checked` additionally takes the
-exhaustive set of labels a router can return, so `compile()` can validate
-every branch label against the node's route table before the graph ever
-runs (see `builder.md`).
-
-Routing outputs:
-
-- node name
-- `END`
-- one or more node names
-- `Send` packet
-- one or more `Send` packets
-- `Command`
-
-Branch metadata should include an optional path map and typed route labels so
-visualization does not have to assume every conditional edge can reach every
-node.
-
-## Commands And Send Packets
-
-Commands combine state update, routing, parent/subgraph targeting, and interrupt
-resume values.
-
-```rust
-pub struct Command {
-    pub graph: CommandGraphTarget,
-    pub update: Option<StateUpdate>,
-    pub resume: Option<ResumeValue>,
-    pub goto: Vec<RouteTarget>,
-}
-
-pub enum CommandGraphTarget {
-    Current,
-    Parent,
-    Graph(GraphId),
-}
-
-pub enum RouteTarget {
-    Node(NodeId),
-    Send(Send),
-}
-
-pub struct Send {
-    pub node: NodeId,
-    pub arg: serde_json::Value,
-}
-```
-
-`Command::goto([..])` (plain node activations) and `Command::send([Send::new(node,
-arg), ..])` (per-invocation fanout) both populate `Command::goto:
-Vec<RouteTarget>`; `with_goto`/`with_sends` append to it. A `Send`-scheduled node
-receives its `arg` on `NodeContext::send_arg` (`None` for normal activations);
-many `Send`s may target the *same* node, producing one parallel activation each
-(map-reduce). Plain activations are deduplicated by node; `Send` activations are
-not.
-
-Runtime command targets are validated before they become the next active set or
-are persisted in a checkpoint:
-
-- `END` is allowed and terminates that branch.
-- `START` is rejected because it is a virtual entry marker, not an executable
-  runtime target.
-- every other target must name a compiled node.
-- invalid runtime targets fail the run before the boundary checkpoint is
-  written, so durable state cannot be poisoned with missing next nodes.
-
-Use `Command` for:
-
-- dynamic routing
-- node-local state update plus routing
-- human approval resume values
-- parent graph handoff from subgraphs
-- supervisor/worker handoff
-
-Use `Send` for dynamic fanout where each target invocation receives custom
-input that can differ from the graph's main state. This is the primitive for
-map-reduce, search fanout, parallel tool calls, and per-item scoring.
-
-## External Run Inputs
-
-Most runs enter through the compiled `START -> entry` edge:
-
-```rust
-graph.run(state).await?;
-```
-
-When the caller needs to seed multiple graph loops at once, use
-`GraphInput`:
-
-```rust
-graph
-    .run_with_inputs(
-        state,
-        [
-            GraphInput::start(json!({ "message": "hello" })),
-            GraphInput::new("tool_loop", json!({ "tool": "search" })),
-        ],
-    )
-    .await?;

-# Graph Runtime Context, Node Defaults, And Policies
-
-This page describes the per-task runtime context and the per-node execution
-policy surface as implemented in `crates/tinyagents-graph/src/builder/`
-(`types.rs`, `policy.rs`) and `crates/tinyagents-graph/src/compiled/`
-(`run_ctx.rs`, `step.rs`, `boundary.rs`). It replaces an older sketch of a
-`GraphContext<Ctx>` / `TimeoutPolicy` / `error_handler: NodeId` design that
-was never built; nothing below is a target.
-
-## `NodeContext`
-
-Every node handler receives `(State, NodeContext)`. The context is created
-per activation by the executor (`RunCtx::node_context`), scoped to that one
-task, and never a global. It exposes:
-
-- identity: `graph_id`, `node_id`, `run_id`, `thread_id` (when
-  checkpointing), `root_run_id`, `recursion_frames` (the live recursion
-  stack, root-first), `task_id` (stable within the superstep; distinguishes
-  `Send` fan-out activations of one node), `siblings` (how many activations
-  of this node share the step), and `fork` (the branch in a parallel step)
-- `step`: the 1-based superstep number
-- `resume`: the value a `Command::resume`/`resume_tasks` delivered to this
-  task, `None` otherwise
-- `send_arg`: the per-invocation argument of a `Send` packet or `GraphInput`
-- `channel_versions` / `versions_seen` and `changed_since_last_run(channel)`
-  for channel-model graphs
-- `child_runs`: the sink a subgraph node reports spawned child runs to
-- `agent_binding`: the host-supplied recursive-agent binding for this run
-- `heartbeat()`: restarts the node's idle-timeout window
-- `durable_task(key, fut)`: memoises a side-effecting sub-step per
-  `(task_id, key)` across re-runs of the task — see
-  [builder.md](builder.md#nodecontextdurable_task)
-
-Deadline and cancellation are *not* on the context. The whole-run deadline
-(`CompiledGraph::with_run_deadline`) and the run-level stop signals
-(`RunOptions::cancellation`, `RunOptions::drain`) are enforced by the
-executor between and around supersteps (see
-[execution.md](execution.md) and [fault-tolerance.md](fault-tolerance.md)).
-There is no store registry or custom stream writer on the context; events
-flow through the graph's `GraphEventSink`.
-
-## Node policies
-
-```rust
-pub struct NodePolicy<State, Update> {
-    pub retry: Option<RetryPolicy>,
-    pub timeout: Option<Duration>,
-    pub idle_timeout: Option<Duration>,
-    pub cache: Option<NodeCachePolicy<State>>,
-    pub on_error: Option<Arc<OnErrorFn<State, Update>>>,
-    pub defer: bool,
-}
-
-pub struct NodeCachePolicy<State> {
-    pub key: Arc<CacheKeyFn<State>>,   // Fn(&State, Option<&send_arg>) -> String
-    pub ttl: Option<Duration>,
-}
-```
-
-Attach a policy per node with `GraphBuilder::with_node_policy(node, policy)`
-or graph-wide with `GraphBuilder::set_node_defaults(policy)`. Every field is
-optional and additive; `NodePolicy::default()` changes nothing. Builder
-sugar: `NodePolicy::default().with_retry(..).with_timeout(..)
-.with_idle_timeout(..).with_cache(..).with_on_error(..).deferred()`.
-
-### Resolution
-
-The executor resolves an *effective* policy per activation
-(`CompiledGraph::effective_policy` → `NodePolicy::resolve`), field by field:
-
-1. the node's own policy, when that field is `Some`;
-2. else the `set_node_defaults` policy's field;
-3. else the legacy graph-wide setting — `CompiledGraph::with_node_retry`
-   for `retry`, `GraphBuilder::with_node_timeout` / `GraphDefaults
-   { node_timeout }` for `timeout`;
-4. else nothing.
-
-`defer` is the logical OR of the per-node and default flags. Per-node values
-therefore always win; graph-level values only fill gaps.
-
-### Retry
-
-A handler that fails with a retryable error (`tinyagents_harness::retry::is_retryable`
-— the transient model/tool class) is re-run from its start, with a fresh
-handler future and a cloned context, up to the policy's attempt cap,
-emitting `GraphEvent::NodeRetryScheduled` and sleeping the backoff only when
-the policy opts in (`RetryPolicy::with_backoff_sleep`). A cloned context
-shares the task's `durable_task` memos, so a retried attempt does not repeat
-a side effect the first attempt already memoised. Non-retryable errors and
-exhausted budgets escalate to the failure boundary (a resumable checkpoint
-on a checkpointed thread; see fault-tolerance.md).
-
-### Timeouts
-
-Two independent ceilings race every attempt: `timeout` (flat wall-clock time
-per attempt) and `idle_timeout` (the maximum gap between two
-`NodeContext::heartbeat()` calls, or between start and the first one). Either
-firing fails the attempt with `TinyAgentsError::Timeout`, which is not
-retryable. Timeout cancellation is cooperative in the sense that the handler
-future is dropped at the race, not pre-empted mid-instruction. There is no
-"refresh on graph progress" mode; only an explicit heartbeat re-arms the
-idle window.
-
-### `on_error`
-
-`on_error: Fn(&State, &TinyAgentsError) -> Option<Command<Update>>` is
-consulted once retries are exhausted (or the error is not retryable).
-Returning `Some(command)` makes the node complete with that command — its
-update applied, its `goto` honoured — instead of failing the run. There is no
-separate "error-handler node" concept; a policy that wants one routes to it
-via the returned `Command::goto`.
-
-### Caching
-
-Caching is a two-part opt-in:
-
-- `NodeCachePolicy` on the node (via `NodePolicy::cache`, or directly with
-  `CompiledGraph::with_cached_node(node, policy)`, which also installs the
-  `Update: Serialize + DeserializeOwned` codec) derives a key from the state
-  snapshot and the activation's `send_arg`, with an optional TTL;
-- a backend on the graph: `CompiledGraph::with_task_cache(Arc<dyn TaskCache>)`
-  (`InMemoryTaskCache`, or `DriverTaskCache`).
-
-Without a backend every cache policy is inert. With one, a hit replays the
-stored `Update` without invoking the handler and emits
-`GraphEvent::TaskCompleted { cached: true }`; a miss runs the handler and,
-on an `Update`/`Command` result, stores it (`TaskCompleted { cached: false }`).
-Errors and interrupts are never cached. The key function is called once per
-activation. The cache key is entirely the policy's to compute — include
-whatever inputs, config version, or namespace make two activations
-interchangeable — and keys are scoped by `(graph_id, node_id, hash)`. Cache
-errors are treated as misses; caching is an optimisation, never a
-correctness requirement. This is distinct from `NodeContext::durable_task`,
-which is per-task memoisation inside one thread's checkpoint ledger, not a
-cross-run cache.
-
-### Defer
-
-`defer: true` (or `GraphBuilder::mark_deferred(node)`, which also sets the
-export marker) holds an activation back from the frontier while any
-non-deferred activation is also ready, accumulating held activations across
-supersteps and releasing them all at once the first time a boundary would
-otherwise route to an empty frontier — a "run once everything else is done"
-synthesis join without an explicit barrier (`boundary::apply_defer`). Held
-deferred activations are not persisted: a run resumed mid-hold starts with
-an empty hold.
-
-## Graph defaults
-
-`GraphBuilder::set_defaults(GraphDefaults { .. })` applies only the `Some`
-fields of `recursion_limit`, `parallel`, `max_concurrency`, and
-`node_timeout`; `with_max_concurrency(n)` bounds in-flight handlers per
-parallel superstep (`0` = unbounded); `with_node_timeout(d)` is the legacy
-graph-wide flat timeout that `NodePolicy::resolve` falls back to.

-# Graph State, Channels, And Updates
-
-The current scaffold returns whole state from each node. Durable graphs should
-move to partial state updates applied through channels. A channel owns the
-current value, the accepted update type, checkpoint representation, reducer, and
-step-boundary merge behavior.
-
-```rust
-pub trait Channel: Send + Sync {
-    type Value;
-    type Update;
-    type Checkpoint;
-
-    fn get(&self) -> Result<Self::Value>;
-    fn update(&mut self, values: Vec<Self::Update>) -> Result<ChannelChange>;
-    fn checkpoint(&self) -> Result<Self::Checkpoint>;
-    fn restore(checkpoint: Self::Checkpoint) -> Result<Self>
-    where
-        Self: Sized;
-    fn consume(&mut self) -> Result<ChannelChange> {
-        Ok(ChannelChange::Unchanged)
-    }
-    fn finish(&mut self) -> Result<ChannelChange> {
-        Ok(ChannelChange::Unchanged)
-    }
-}
-```
-
-Required channel policies:
-
-- `LastValue`: accepts one update per step and overwrites the value.
-- `Overwrite`: explicit overwrite marker for aggregate channels.
-- `BinaryAggregate`: applies a binary reducer such as append, add, min, or max.
-- `Topic`: pub/sub collection, optionally accumulating across steps.
-- `Ephemeral`: value exists only for one step or one trigger.
-- `Barrier`: waits until named sources have all arrived.
-- `NamedBarrier`: tracks named arrivals for join semantics.
-- `Messages`: message merge by id for chat histories.
-- `Delta`: stores compact deltas plus periodic snapshots for large append-heavy
-  channels.
-- `Untracked`: excluded from checkpointing when safe.
-
-Why channel-level reducers matter:
-
-- parallel branches can write different fields safely
-- map-reduce fanout can aggregate many outputs in one step
-- checkpoints can store pending writes instead of only final whole-state values
-- failed parallel nodes can rerun without discarding completed writes
-- tests can assert exact writes and reducer behavior
-- generated/language-defined nodes can use simple partial update contracts
-
-The graph should support both root state and object state. A single root channel
-is useful for scalar workflows; multi-key state is the default for agent graphs.
-
-## Implemented additive model (`graph::channel`)
-
-The channel model is shipped **additively**: the monolithic `State` +
-`StateReducer` path is unchanged, and channels are an opt-in alternative that
-runs on the *existing* executor. The implementation lives in
-`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/channel/` and is `serde_json::Value`-backed for generality.
-
-- `Channel` (object-safe trait): per-key `merge(current, incoming) -> value`
-  plus `allows_concurrent`, `is_ephemeral`, `is_tracked`, and `is_ready`
-  (barrier) hooks. Concrete channels: `LastValue` (overwrite), `Topic`
-  (append into an array), `Delta` (numeric accumulate), `Messages` (merge by
-  `id`), `Ephemeral` (overwrite, cleared next step), `Untracked` (overwrite,
-  excluded from snapshots), `Barrier`/`NamedBarrier` (count/name fan-in with
-  readiness), and `BinaryAggregate` (fold via a closure or any
-  `Reducer<Value>`).
-- `ChannelSet`: a named map of `Box<dyn Channel>` plus their current values,
-  with `add_channel`/`with_channel`, `apply_update(name, value)`, `get`,
-  `is_ready`, and `snapshot()` (the tracked, durable view).
-- `ChannelState`: a graph `State` wrapping a `ChannelSet`. It implements
-  `StateReducer<ChannelState, ChannelUpdate>` for itself (the `&self` reducer
-  receiver is unused; merge rules travel inside the running state), so a
-  channel graph is built directly with
-  `GraphBuilder::<ChannelState, ChannelUpdate>::new().set_reducer(ChannelState::new())`.
-- `ChannelUpdate`: a batch of `(name, value)` writes a node returns
-  (`ChannelUpdate::new().set(..).set(..)`). Stamp it with the producing node's
-  superstep via `.at_step(ctx.step)`.
-
-### Concurrent-write conflict detection
-
-The executor folds a step's branch updates one at a time. Stamping each
-`ChannelUpdate` with `ctx.step` lets the reducer group a step's writes: when the
-step number advances it resets its per-step bookkeeping and clears `Ephemeral`
-channels. A second same-step write to a non-aggregate channel (`LastValue`,
-`Ephemeral`, `Untracked` — `allows_concurrent == false`) raises
-`TinyAgentsError::InvalidConcurrentUpdate`; aggregate channels
-(`allows_concurrent == true`) merge both writes in deterministic active-set
-index order. Cross-step overwrites and repeated writes inside one update are
-last-wins, not conflicts. Unstamped updates are treated as independent steps
-(no conflict detection, no ephemeral clearing), preserving the simplest path.
-
-## Serializable channels
-
-`Channel` carries a `config(&self) -> serde_json::Value` hook (default
-`Value::Null`) alongside `kind()`. A `ChannelSet` serializes as an ordered map
-of `{ kind, config, value }` entries — no `dyn Channel` trait objects on the
-wire — and its `Deserialize` impl reconstructs each channel from `kind` +
-`config` via an internal `channel_from_config` dispatcher, with no external
-context. `ChannelState` derives `Serialize`/`DeserializeOwned` on top of that,
-so `Checkpoint<ChannelState>` satisfies every bundled `Checkpointer`'s durable
-bounds and round-trips through `DriverCheckpointer` like any
-other graph state.
-
-Built-in channels need no config beyond `kind` (`LastValue`, `Topic`, `Delta`,
-`Messages`, `Ephemeral`, `Untracked`), or a small literal payload
-(`Barrier`/`NamedBarrier` persist their `expected` set). `BinaryAggregate` is
-the one exception: its merge rule is a closure, which cannot serialize. Instead
-of persisting the closure, a `BinaryAggregate` channel persists a **reducer
-name**, resolved through a process-wide `ReducerRegistry`:
-
-```rust
-// Register once, anywhere before the checkpoint is decoded (typically at
-// startup, alongside the graph builder that will use it):
-let graph = GraphBuilder::<ChannelState, ChannelUpdate>::new()
-    .register_reducer("double", |current: Value, incoming: Value| {
-        Ok(json!(current.as_i64().unwrap() * incoming.as_i64().unwrap()))
-    })
-    // ...
-    .set_reducer(ChannelState::new());
-
-// Build the channel from the registered name:
-let initial = ChannelState::new()
-    .with_channel("product", BinaryAggregate::named("double")?);
-```
-
-`BinaryAggregate::named(name)` looks `name` up in the registry immediately
-(returning `TinyAgentsError::Checkpoint` if it is not registered yet) and
-records `name` in the channel's `config()`. Decoding a `binary_aggregate`
-channel repeats that lookup against whatever the *decoding* process has
-registered; a name nobody registered decodes to
-`TinyAgentsError::Checkpoint("unknown reducer ...")` rather than silently
-losing the merge rule. `GraphBuilder::register_reducer` is the intended entry
-point — it just delegates to `ReducerRegistry::register`, and the registry is
-global (not scoped to one builder) because a checkpoint decode has no builder
-in scope at all.
-
-The built-ins `"append"`, `"last"`, `"sum"`, `"max"`, `"min"`, and
-`"set_union"` are always registered, needing no call to `register_reducer`.
-`BinaryAggregate::new`/`from_reducer` (a bare closure, no name) still work for
-a channel that is never checkpointed — they just cannot round-trip.
-
-## Channel versions
-
-Every `ChannelState` tracks a cumulative per-channel version counter,
-`channel_versions: BTreeMap<String, u64>`, bumped once per distinct channel
-name touched by each folded `ChannelUpdate` (a channel written twice in one
-update still bumps once). It is exposed via `ChannelState::channel_versions()`
-and persisted on `Checkpoint::channel_versions` at every boundary — the
-executor's normal/failure/cancel boundaries and the manual `update_state`
-write all go through the same `channel::channel_bookkeeping` extraction
-function, so they cannot disagree about what they persist. A plain whole-state
-graph (any `State` that is not `ChannelState`) reports a single `"state"`
-channel, bumped once per checkpoint, so `channel_versions` is always populated
-regardless of which state model a graph uses.
-
-`NodeContext` carries two views built from this: `channel_versions` (what the
-node's invocation currently observes) and `versions_seen` (this node's own
-snapshot from the last time it ran — empty on its first-ever activation).
-`NodeContext::changed_since_last_run(channel)` compares the two, so a node can
-skip work when nothing it depends on has changed:
-
-```rust
-.add_node("summarize", |state: ChannelState, ctx: NodeContext| async move {
-    if !ctx.changed_since_last_run("messages") {
-        return Ok(NodeResult::Update(ChannelUpdate::new()));
-    }
-    // ... recompute the summary ...
-})
-```
-
-The per-node snapshot is itself persisted (`Checkpoint::versions_seen`, keyed
-by node id string — `NodeId` has no `Ord` impl to key a `BTreeMap` on
-directly) and restored on resume, so this bookkeeping survives a restart
-instead of resetting.
-
-## Delta-channel history and `Overwrite`
-
-`ChannelSet::with_delta(name, snapshot_every)` marks an already-registered
-append-style channel (typically `Topic`, or an `"append"`/`"set_union"`
-`BinaryAggregate`) for **delta tracking**: every write to `name` also records
-its raw incoming value into `ChannelState::step_deltas()` for the current
-step, which the checkpoint-construction call sites copy into
-`Checkpoint::channel_deltas`. Unlike `channel_versions`/the channel's own
-`value`, this field is **not cumulative** — each checkpoint carries only its
-own step's writes to a delta-tracked channel, which is what keeps a single
-checkpoint's size bounded no matter how long the channel's full value grows
-(a 200-step append thread's checkpoint bytes grow roughly linearly with step
-count, not quadratically). `Checkpointer::delta_history(config, channel)`
-replays the full per-step write sequence for a delta-tracked channel; the
-default implementation walks `state_history` oldest-first and concatenates
-each checkpoint's own `channel_deltas` entry.
-
-`ChannelUpdate::overwrite(name, value)` (backed by `ChannelWrite::Overwrite`)
-bypasses the channel's merge rule entirely and replaces its value outright.
-This is what lets a delta/append channel reset its baseline: the overwritten
-value becomes what subsequent `.set(name, ..)` merges build on, and it also
-rebases the channel's `step_deltas` entry (prior accumulated deltas for that
-step are cleared before the overwrite's own value is recorded), so a consumer
-walking `delta_history` sees the overwrite as a fresh starting point rather
-than an append onto stale history.
-
-`update_state` and `fork_state` never bypass this: `update_state`'s manual
-write folds through the exact same `ChannelState::merge` → `ChannelSet::apply_
-channel_write` dispatch the executor boundary uses (`apply_channel_write` is
-the single write-path function every channel-graph write funnels through), and
-`fork_state` copies a source checkpoint's `channel_versions`/`channel_deltas`/
-`versions_seen` verbatim rather than re-deriving them — so replay and a manual
-write can never diverge on what a checkpoint records.

-## Graph
-
-One checkpointer. The old collection prefix becomes the `ns` body field, part of
-every id and index.
-
-| v1 | v2 |
-|---|---|
-| `graph_*`, `delegation_graph_*`, `flows_graph_*` `{checkpoints,threads,writes}` | `graph.{checkpoints,threads,writes}`, `ns` = `graph`, `delegation`, `flows` |
-| checkpoint doc `{thread, namespace, seq, checkpoint_id, record}` | `{ns, thread, subgraph, seq, checkpoint_id, checkpoint}` under `Key::of([ns, thread, seq])` |
-| `<prefix>_leases` `{owner, expires_at_ms}` | `tsd.leases`, owner `graph`, key `Key::of([ns, thread])` (epoch fence) |

-
-A collection gets one step per legacy prefix and a step chain cannot fork, so
-the steps chain `1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4` (declared version 4). A migrated row carries
-the version its step ends at (`graph` 2, `delegation` 3, `flows` 4); the body

-scope after `Registry::migrate`. Both record completion in `tsd.migrations`.
-
-Breaking: `DriverCheckpointer::with_prefix` is now `with_namespace`, and

-
-Bodies are bare snake_case DTOs with `*_ms` times; `OrchestrationTaskRecord` and
-`CompletionRecord` (tool and RPC output types) are unchanged. The last-update
-time is the document's `updated_ms` metadata; a migrated record's is the
-migration time. Transitions use `Repo::update`. The history snapshot is written

-# Graph Streaming And Events
-
-The graph stream should support low-level event streams and high-level
-projection streams.
-
-Core stream modes:
-
-- `values`: full state values after each step
-- `updates`: per-node/per-task state updates
-- `messages`: harness message or token deltas emitted by model nodes
-- `custom`: arbitrary user stream writes from inside nodes
-- `checkpoints`: checkpoint payloads
-- `tasks`: task start and task result payloads
-- `debug`: checkpoints plus task internals
-- `events`: all graph lifecycle events
-
-Typed stream part:
-
-```rust
-pub enum StreamPart<State, Output> {
-    Values {
-        namespace: Vec<String>,
-        data: Output,
-        interrupts: Vec<Interrupt>,
-    },
-    Updates {
-        namespace: Vec<String>,
-        data: IndexMap<NodeId, StateUpdate>,
-    },
-    Messages {
-        namespace: Vec<String>,
-        message: Message,
-        metadata: StreamMetadata,
-    },
-    Custom {
-        namespace: Vec<String>,

-    },

-    Tasks {

-    Debug {
-        namespace: Vec<String>,
-        data: DebugPayload<State>,
-    },
-}
-```
-
-Event stream:
-
-```rust

-}
-```
-
-Streaming requirements:
-
-- graph runs can be consumed as an async stream
-- streaming does not require waiting for final state
-- every streamed event carries run id, thread id, namespace, step, and node/task
-  metadata when available
-- subgraph streams preserve nested namespaces
-- harness streams from model/tool/sub-agent nodes are forwarded with graph node
-  context
-- subscribers can filter graph events, harness events, sub-agent events, state
-  updates, task payloads, messages, and checkpoints
-- a typed run stream should expose final output, interrupted status, and pending
-  interrupts even when the caller only subscribed to a subset of projections
-
-## Implementation status (runtime-comparison Phase 3, C3)
-
-The design above is the target shape; the current implementation is a
-scoped-down but real subset built around `crate::stream`:
-
-- **`GraphEventEnvelope { run_id, task_id, ns, seq, event }`**
-  (`stream/types.rs`) wraps every `GraphEvent` the executor emits.
-  `GraphEventSink::emit` takes the envelope, not the bare event — `ns` is the
-  emitting graph instance's checkpoint namespace (empty at the top level, one
-  segment deeper per level of subgraph embedding) and `seq` is a per-instance
-  monotonic counter (`CompiledGraph::sequence`, an `Arc<AtomicU64>`). The
-  counter is shared across a clone that only swaps `event_sink` (journal
-  wrapping keeps counting where the plain run left off) but is reset to a
-  fresh one for a subgraph embedded as a node
-  (`subgraph::namespaced`/`CompiledGraph::with_fresh_sequence`) — the deeper
-  `ns` already disambiguates that stream, so nothing is gained by chaining
-  the parent's sequence into it. `task_id` is `None` until per-task
-  correlation ids exist end to end (`docs/runtime-comparison/feature-gaps.md`
-  D4); adding it later is additive.
-- **`StreamMode::{Tasks, Checkpoints}`** are implemented. `GraphEvent::mode()`
-  maps `TaskScheduled`/`TaskStarted`/`TaskCompleted`/`NodeStarted`/
-  `NodeCompleted`/`NodeFailed`/`NodeRetryScheduled` onto `Tasks`,
-  `CheckpointSaved`/`CheckpointRestored` onto `Checkpoints`; every other kind
-  (including the plain run/step lifecycle events) is debug-only detail.
-  `stream::project::project_graph_event(event, modes)` applies that mapping.
-  `GraphEvent::TaskStarted`/`TaskCompleted { cached }` are new variants
-  emitted alongside `NodeStarted`/`NodeCompleted`/`NodeFailed` at the same
-  boundary; `cached` is always `false` today (no per-node task cache exists
-  yet — D2).
-- **`StreamProjection`** (`stream/project.rs`) is the cross-source fold this
-  doc's "harness streams … are forwarded with graph node context" bullet
-  calls for: `fold_graph_event`/`fold_agent_event` take a `GraphEventEnvelope`
-  and a harness `AgentEvent` respectively and append into `messages`,
-  `tool_calls`, and `subagents` — each a `Vec<Cursored<T>>` sharing one
-  monotonic `cursor` across all three views. `StreamProjection::since(cursor)`
-  is the late-attach replay primitive: a consumer that connects after a run
-  is already underway asks for everything past the cursor it last saw
-  instead of re-reading history. Only `GraphEvent::SubgraphStarted`/
-  `SubgraphCompleted` project from the graph side today (as `subagents`
-  entries); the harness side covers model deltas
-  (`AgentEvent::ModelDelta` → `messages`), tool lifecycle
-  (`ToolStarted`/`ToolCompleted`/`ToolFailed` → `tool_calls`), and sub-agent
-  lifecycle (`SubAgentStarted`/`SubAgentCompleted` → `subagents`).
-- **Not yet implemented**: the typed `StreamPart<State, Output>` enum, the
-  `values`/`updates`/`custom` projections from live graph state (those still
-  require the graph-state side channel this doc's header note already calls
-  out), `RunStreamingStarted`, `ContextForkJoined`, and `RunDraining`. A
-  subgraph node does not automatically inherit its parent's `event_sink` —
-  nested observability today requires configuring the same sink on both
-  explicitly (see `subgraph::test::nested_subgraph_run_yields_envelopes_with_correct_namespace_depth_and_seq`
-  for the pattern); full automatic propagation is future work alongside D4.

-# Graph Sub-Agents, Recursion, And Depth Tracking
-
-Sub-agents are harness agents registered in the registry and invoked from graph
-nodes. They are not opaque side effects; they are child runs with their own
-events, usage, cost, failures, and optional streams.
-
-> **Deprecated.** `SubAgentNode` / `subagent_node` are `#[deprecated(note = "use tinyagents_orchestration SubagentDriver")]`: graph cannot depend on orchestration, so they cannot adapt the driver. Behaviour is unchanged.
-
-```rust
-pub struct SubAgentNode {
-    pub agent: ComponentId,
-    pub input_mapper: InputMapper,
-    pub output_mapper: OutputMapper,
-    pub policy: SubAgentPolicy,
-}
-```
-
-Sub-agent requirements:
-
-- create a child `run_id`
-- preserve `root_run_id`
-- set `parent_run_id` to the graph node/task run
-- forward harness events through graph/registry streaming
-- apply timeout, retry, cache, and budget policy
-- map child output into parent graph update
-- make child usage and cost visible in parent rollups
-- include child run references in checkpoints and task events
-
-Sub-agents allow a graph to coordinate specialized workers while keeping each
-worker independently observable and testable.
-
-Parallel sub-agent fanout should use the graph's context-forking contract so
-child agents inherit run identity, stores, stream sinks, and cache handles while
-receiving isolated mutable task scope. See
-[Parallel agents and context forking](parallel-agents-forking.md).
-
-## Steering Sub-Agents
-
-Graph-backed sub-agents can be steered by a parent orchestrator, a graph
-supervisor node, middleware, a human operator, or a test. Steering should use
-the harness steering command contract, then lower into graph commands,
-checkpoint updates, or child-run delivery depending on the target state. See
-[Sub-agent and orchestrator steering](../harness/subagent-steering.md).
-
-Supported graph-level steering cases:
-
-- parent orchestrator sends additional instructions to a running child
-  sub-agent
-- parent orchestrator narrows a child sub-agent's tool or model policy
-- parent orchestrator asks a child sub-agent for status before join
-- human pauses, resumes, redirects, approves, rejects, or cancels a specific
-  child sub-agent run
-- human steers the parent orchestrator while children continue or pause under
-  policy
-- graph supervisor node redirects a child task to a review, retry, or finalize
-  node
-
-Graph steering targets must be addressable by run-tree metadata:
-
-```rust
-pub enum GraphSteeringTarget {
-    ParentRun(RunId),
-    ChildRun { parent_run_id: RunId, child_run_id: RunId },
-    Task { run_id: RunId, task_id: TaskId },
-    Node { run_id: RunId, node_id: NodeId },
-    Namespace { run_id: RunId, namespace: Vec<String> },
-}
-```
-
-Rules:
-
-- parent runs can steer descendants by default, not unrelated runs
-- humans can steer any run or child task allowed by the control surface policy
-- steering a child must not mutate parent state directly
-- child steering is delivered as structured input with actor/provenance, not as
-  anonymous user text
-- accepted child steering produces child events and parent rollup events
-- rejected child steering includes a policy reason
-- graph reducers own any state change caused by steering
-- checkpoint metadata records pending, applied, and rejected steering commands
-
-When a sub-agent is paused on an interrupt, steering can target that exact
-interrupt or child namespace. Resuming a child interrupt should restart or
-continue only that child task unless the steering policy explicitly escalates to
-the parent graph.
-
-## Orchestrator Steering
-
-The parent orchestrator is itself steerable. Human or supervisor steering can:
-
-- add or replace orchestration instructions at the next safe boundary
-- narrow delegation policy before more sub-agents are spawned
-- cancel pending child fanout
-- redirect the graph to a review, retry, join, or finalize node
-- apply reducer-mediated state corrections
-
-The orchestrator must treat steering as external control with provenance. It
-should not silently merge human instructions into its own assistant messages or
-pretend parent-agent steering came from the original user.
-
-## Steering Events
-
-Graph event streams should include steering alongside sub-agent lifecycle:
-
-- `steering.requested`
-- `steering.accepted`
-- `steering.rejected`
-- `steering.delivered`
-- `steering.applied`
-- `subagent.steering_received`
-- `subagent.steering_rejected`
-
-Every steering event must include root run id, parent run id, child run id when
-available, task id when graph-backed, namespace, actor, command kind, policy id,
-correlation id, and checkpoint id when available.
-
-## Detached Task Runtime Registry
-
-`DetachedTaskRegistry<Metadata, Status>` complements the durable `TaskStore`
-with process-local executor handles. Applications register a task's owner,
-metadata, status watch receiver, cancellation token, and abort handle, while
-the task's live `SteeringHandle` remains addressable through the shared
-`SteeringRegistry`.
-
-The registry enforces owner checks for wait and steering, keeps timed-out waits
-registered, prunes terminal waits, cancels cooperatively before hard-aborting,
-and sweeps terminal entries when its soft cap is reached. It never evicts live
-work to satisfy the cap and does not duplicate durable lifecycle records.
-After a restart, applications reconcile live `TaskStore` records that have no
-matching runtime entry according to their executor policy.
-
-## Listing Orchestration Tasks {#orchestrate-list}
-
-The model-facing `orchestrate_list` tool enumerates managed tasks visible to the
-current orchestration scope, filtered through `OrchestrationTaskFilter`. Beyond
-the run-tree fields (`parent_run_id`, `root_run_id`, `thread_id`, `node_id`,
-`status`), the filter supports:
-
-- `kind` — a task-kind discriminant label matching
-  `OrchestrationTaskKind::as_str` (`"graph"`, `"sub_agent"`, `"tool"`,
-  `"external_process"`).
-- `created_after_ms` / `created_before_ms` — an inclusive created-at window in
-  Unix-epoch **milliseconds**, parsed into `SystemTime` bounds against each
-  record's `created_at`.
-
-`OrchestrationTaskFilter` exposes `with_kind(label)` and
-`created_between(after, before)` builders (each bound is `Option<SystemTime>`),
-plus a `matches(record)` predicate. The tool schema accepts the same names:
-
-```rust
-// orchestrate_list arguments (all optional):
-json!({ "kind": "sub_agent" })            // only sub-agent tasks
-json!({ "created_after_ms": 0 })          // created at/after the epoch (all)
-json!({ "created_before_ms": 0 })         // created at/before the epoch (none)
-```
-
-For example, spawning one `graph` task and one `sub_agent` task and then listing
-with `{ "kind": "sub_agent" }` returns just the sub-agent record; a
-`{ "created_before_ms": 0 }` upper bound excludes everything created just now,
-while `{ "created_after_ms": 0 }` includes both. The full orchestration tool set
-(`orchestrate_spawn`, `orchestrate_await`, `orchestrate_list`, and the rest) is
-described in the Graph Runtime wiki page.
-
-## Recursion And Depth Tracking
-
-The graph should allow recursive execution, but only with explicit limits and
-tracking.
-
-Recursive cases:
-
-- a graph invokes itself as a subgraph
-- a graph invokes a subgraph that eventually invokes the parent graph
-- an agent node calls another agent that calls back into the same graph
-- a router intentionally loops through nodes until state converges
-- a `Send` fanout schedules many recursive child tasks
-
-Required tracking:
-
-```rust
-pub struct RecursionFrame {
-    pub graph_id: GraphId,
-    pub node_id: Option<NodeId>,
-    pub run_id: RunId,
-    pub task_id: Option<TaskId>,
-    pub namespace: Vec<String>,
-    pub depth: usize,
-    pub parent: Option<RunId>,
-}
-
-pub struct RecursionPolicy {
-    pub max_depth: usize,
-    pub max_visits_per_node: Option<usize>,
-    pub max_total_steps: usize,
-}
-```
-
-Rules:
-
-- every graph/subgraph/sub-agent call pushes a recursion frame
-- every return pops the frame
-- depth is emitted on graph and registry events
-- exceeding `max_depth` fails with a clear graph recursion error
-- node-loop recursion and graph-call recursion are tracked separately
-- checkpoint metadata includes the current recursion stack
-- UIs should be able to render nested runs without reconstructing them from logs
-
-## See also
-
-- [Harness state graph runtime](../harness/state-graph.md) documents
-  `tinyagents_graph::agent_loop` (A5): the harness's own `plan -> model ->
-  tools -> settle` loop, compiled into an ordinary `CompiledGraph`. It is a
-  leaf graph, not a sub-agent host, but it composes with everything on this
-  page the same way any other compiled graph does — a `plan`/`model`/`tools`
-  node it drives can itself call a sub-agent tool, and the compiled loop
-  graph can itself be embedded as a subgraph node, so "graphs run graphs"
-  still holds all the way down into the loop that is usually the
-  recursion's innermost, non-graph leaf.

-# Graph Subgraphs
-
-Subgraphs are compiled graphs used as nodes.
-
-Two state modes:
-
-```text
-shared-state subgraph
-parent State == child State
-
-adapter subgraph
-parent State -> child Input -> child Output -> parent Update
-```
-
-Subgraph requirements (implemented unless marked target; verified against
-`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/subgraph/`):
-
-- namespace checkpoint ids
-- preserve `root_run_id`
-- set child `parent_run_id`
-- propagate thread id by default
-- **Target (not implemented):** allow isolated child thread ids by explicit
-  configuration — today an embedded child always runs on the parent's thread
-  when one is set, or unthreaded (no checkpoints) when it is not; there is no
-  opt-in for a child to have its own independent thread id
-- **Target (not implemented):** inherit, override, or disable the parent
-  checkpointer per subgraph — today the child always inherits the parent's
-  checkpointer
-- emit nested events with parent node id and namespace
-- stream child values, updates, messages, tasks, and checkpoints when requested
-- **Target (not implemented):** allow `Command::Parent` handoff from child
-  graph to parent graph — no `Parent` variant exists on `Command`
-- each `ChildRun` entry (the `child_runs` array embedded in the parent's
-  boundary-checkpoint metadata) carries the child's latest checkpoint id
-  alongside its run id and node, so the association between a parent
-  activation and the exact child checkpoint it drove is explicit
-- a `Send` fan-out of the same subgraph node — several concurrent
-  activations of one node within a step (map-reduce over a subgraph) —
-  namespaces each activation's child under `[node_id, task_id]` instead of
-  every activation sharing one `[node_id]` namespace; a node activated only
-  once keeps the plain `[node_id]` namespace, so existing checkpoints stay
-  readable
-- a subgraph child that failed (or is interrupted with a resume value
-  already in hand) is continued through the parent rather than restarted:
-  `retry()`/`resume()` on the parent detects the child's own resumable
-  checkpoint and retries/resumes it in place, instead of re-running the
-  child's already-completed nodes from scratch
-
-Subgraph persistence must be explicit. Inherited checkpointing is convenient for
-shared-state subgraphs; isolated checkpointing is safer for reusable child
-graphs that may also run independently.
-
-## Run hierarchy
-
-When a subgraph node runs its embedded `CompiledGraph`, the child run is wired
-into the parent's recursion tree:
-
-- the child gets its own `run_id`, preserves the enclosing run's `root_run_id`,
-  and sets `parent_run_id` to the parent run;
-- the child run extends the parent's recursion frames (seeded from
-  `NodeContext::recursion_frames`) and its root frame names the embedding node,
-  so depth tracking is correct without mutating the parent's live stack;
-- the spawned child is reported back through `NodeContext::child_runs` and
-  surfaces on `GraphExecution::child_runs` (a `ChildRun` list keyed by node) and
-  in every boundary checkpoint's metadata under a `child_runs` array;
-- callers read the parent/child lineage after a run via
-  `GraphExecution::run_tree()` (a `RunTree`: this run's id, the shared root, the
-  parent run, and the spawned children).
-
-When the parent `NodeContext` carries a thread id, embedded child graphs run on
-that same thread by default. The child checkpoint namespace is still extended
-with the embedding node id, so parent and child checkpoints share a thread but
-remain separately inspectable:
-
-```text
-thread: t
-parent checkpoint namespace: []
-child checkpoint namespace: ["child_node"]
-```
-
-If the parent run has no thread id, the child keeps the unthreaded execution
-behavior and does not persist checkpoints.

-# Graph Visualization, Introspection, And Testkit
-
-The graph exports (implemented in `crates/tinyagents-graph/src/export`):
-
-- graph id and name — `GraphTopology::graph_id` / `GraphTopology::name`
-  (set via `GraphBuilder::with_name`)
-- node ids — `NodeInfo::id`
-- node metadata — `NodeInfo::kind`, `NodeInfo::metadata`
-  (`GraphBuilder::with_node_kind` / `with_node_metadata`)
-- node policy summaries — `NodeInfo::policy` (`NodePolicySummary`: derived
-  routing discipline plus barrier/interrupt/deferred/subgraph roles) and the
-  graph-level `GraphTopology::policy` (`GraphPolicySummary`: recursion limit,
-  parallel, max concurrency, node timeout)
-- direct edges — `GraphTopology::edges`
-- waiting/barrier edges — `GraphTopology::waiting_edges` (`WaitingEdgeInfo`,
-  lifted out of the direct-edge set)
-- conditional route labels — `GraphTopology::conditional_edges`
-- command destination hints — `NodeInfo::command_destinations`
-  (`GraphBuilder::with_command_destinations`)
-- start and end paths — `GraphTopology::entry` / `GraphTopology::finish_nodes`
-- interrupt markers — `NodeInfo::interrupt` (`GraphBuilder::mark_interrupt`)
-- deferred-node markers — `NodeInfo::deferred` (`GraphBuilder::mark_deferred`)
-- subgraph nodes — `NodeInfo::subgraph` (`GraphBuilder::mark_subgraph`)
-- validation report — `GraphTopology::validation` (`ValidationReport`:
-  structural errors for dangling references, warnings for unreachable/dead-end
-  nodes)
-
-Export formats:
-
-- structured JSON — `to_json` / `from_json` (the structured `GraphTopology` is
-  the single source of truth; tests snapshot it)
-- Mermaid — `to_mermaid` (subgraph nodes use the subroutine shape; interrupt,
-  deferred, and subgraph nodes get `classDef` markers; barrier and command
-  `goto` edges render dotted)
-- DOT — later
-
-Both extraction sources — `CompiledGraph::topology` and
-`GraphBuilder::topology` — produce the same
-`GraphTopology`, so visualization and test snapshots share one truth.
-
-## Testkit
-
-`graph::testkit` (implemented in `crates/tinyagents-graph/src/testkit`) provides graph-test
-building blocks distinct from the harness testkit. Each node helper returns a
-closure ready for `GraphBuilder::add_node`:
-
-- no-op node — `noop_node`
-- scripted update node — `scripted_update_node`
-- scripted route node — `scripted_route_node`
-- send/fanout node — `fanout_node`
-- failing node — `failing_node`
-- retry-counting node — `RetryCountingNode` (`.handler(..)` / `.attempts()`)
-- interrupting node — `interrupting_node`
-- subgraph test node — `subgraph_test_node` (wraps `shared_subgraph_node`)
-- sub-agent fake node — `subagent_fake_node` (records a `ChildRun`)
-- in-memory checkpointer — reuse `graph::InMemoryCheckpointer`
-
-Observation and assertion surfaces:
-
-- event recorder — `GraphEventRecorder` (`.sink()`, `.events()`, `.kinds()`)
-- stream collector — `StreamCollector` (`node_order`, `updates`, `routes`,
-  `interrupts`, `checkpoint_count`, `custom`)
-- run bundling — `run_recorded` produces a `GraphRun` (execution + recorded
-  events + checkpoint history), the single test truth
-- fluent assertions — `assert_graph(run)` → `GraphAssertions`: `.visited`,
-  `.routed` (route assertion), `.checkpoint_count`, `.state_history` (state
-  history assertion), `.checkpoint` (checkpoint assertion), `.completed`,
-  `.interrupted`
-
-`run_recorded` wires the recorder, runs the (cloned) graph, and — when a thread
-id is supplied — collects the durable checkpoint history, so the export/event/
-checkpoint truth all read from one `GraphRun`.
-
-## Storage conformance {#conformance}
-
-`graph::testkit::conformance` encodes durable-store **contracts** once so any
-backend — the built-in ones or a caller-supplied adapter — behaves
-interchangeably. Each function panics with a descriptive message on the first
-violation, so call them from a `#[test]` / `#[tokio::test]`. Five contracts
-ship:
-
-| Contract | Asserts |
-| --- | --- |
-| `checkpointer_contract(cp)` | Single-threaded put/get (latest + specific), insertion-order listing, `list_threads`, `delete_thread`, `prune`. |
-| `taskstore_contract(store)` | Full task lifecycle state machine, cooperative cancel, kill, deadline updates, status filtering, terminal-transition rejection. |
-| `checkpointer_concurrent_contract(Arc<C>)` | Many concurrent tasks put distinct checkpoints on one shared instance; every write lands and is retrievable (no lost writes). |
-| `taskstore_concurrent_contract(Arc<S>)` | Many threads insert and advance distinct tasks against one shared store; every write lands exactly once. |
-| `taskstore_replay_contract(reopen)` | Durable state written through one handle survives re-opening the backing store (terminal status + transition history replay). |
-
-The concurrent contracts take an `Arc<_>` (the store is shared across
-threads/tasks); the replay contract takes a `Fn() -> S` that re-opens the same
-durable backing so the same store can be closed and reconstructed. Wire them
-across every backend in one test file:
-
-```rust
-use tinyagents_graph::checkpoint::{DriverCheckpointer, InMemoryCheckpointer};
-use tinyagents_tasks::InMemoryTaskStore;
-use tinyagents_graph::testkit::conformance::{
-    checkpointer_concurrent_contract, taskstore_concurrent_contract, taskstore_replay_contract,
-};
-
-#[tokio::test]
-async fn checkpointer_handles_concurrent_writes() {
-    checkpointer_concurrent_contract(std::sync::Arc::new(InMemoryCheckpointer::<i32>::new())).await;
-}
-
-#[test]
-fn task_store_handles_concurrent_writes() {
-    taskstore_concurrent_contract(std::sync::Arc::new(InMemoryTaskStore::new()));
-}
-
-#[test]
-fn driver_task_store_replays_after_restart() {
-    // `open` returns a `DriverTaskStore` over the same SQLite file each call.
-    let dir = tempfile::tempdir().unwrap();
-    taskstore_replay_contract(|| open_driver_task_store(dir.path()));
-}
-```
-
-Only durable backends (`DriverCheckpointer`, `DriverTaskStore` on a durable driver) can pass
-the replay contract — an in-memory store drops state on reopen, so run it only
-against the durable ones.
-
-Example:
-
-```rust
-use tinyagents_graph::testkit::{assert_graph, run_recorded};
-
-let run = run_recorded(&graph, Some("t1"), 0).await?;
-assert_graph(&run)
-    .visited(["agent", "tools", "agent"])
-    .routed("agent", "tools")
-    .checkpoint_count(3)
-    .completed();
-```

The integration test crate's graph examples and end-to-end test suites have
been deleted, along with the persistence and conformance tests that exercised
them. These covered functionality that no longer exists in the crate, so
keeping them would only produce failing builds.

-//! Surviving network blips and restarting a failed run.
-//!
-//! Two resilience primitives, on one durable graph:
-//!
-//! 1. **Node-level retry.** [`CompiledGraph::with_node_retry`] re-runs a node
-//!    from its start when its handler fails with a transient
-//!    ([retryable][tinyagents_harness::retry::is_retryable]) error — a model or
-//!    tool/network error. A `fetch` node here fails its first two attempts (a
-//!    simulated connectivity blip) and succeeds on the third, so the run
-//!    completes without any operator involvement.
-//!
-//! 2. **Resumable failure + restart.** A `commit` node fails *harder* than the
-//!    retry budget allows. On a checkpointed thread the run does not vanish: it
-//!    persists a resumable failure-boundary checkpoint (the failed node is
-//!    scheduled to re-run, earlier progress is preserved) and returns the error.
-//!    The "outage" then clears and [`CompiledGraph::retry`] restarts the run
-//!    from that checkpoint to completion. A run could equally be *continued on
-//!    user feedback* by editing state with `update_state` before `retry`.

-# Subconscious Loop Example
-
-This folder contains a runnable, fully offline example of an autonomous
-closed-loop agent harness with a dedicated subconscious layer. It translates the
-LangGraph-style reference design into TinyAgents' typed graph runtime while
-keeping every step deterministic enough for normal `cargo test` coverage.
-
-Run it with:
-
-```text
-cargo run -p tinyagents-integration-tests --example subconscious_loop
-```
-
-Run the integration coverage with:
-
-```text
-cargo test --test e2e_subconscious_loop_example
-```
-
-## Files
-
-- `main.rs`: small executable entrypoint that seeds an initial channel packet,
-  runs the graph, and prints the final state.
-- `autonomous_loop.rs`: the reusable graph, state types, node implementations,
-  routing functions, reducer, mock retrieval, diff summarization, and
-  subconscious steering logic.
-- `../../tests/e2e_subconscious_loop_example.rs`: integration tests that import
-  the same implementation file used by the example binary, so documented and
-  tested behavior stay aligned.
-
-## Architecture
-
-The example models three cognitive tiers:
-
-- Quick layer: `frontend_agent` turns raw channel payloads into macro
-  instructions, then later compiles the final channel response.
-- Reasoning layer: `agent_execution` retrieves from long-term memory, simulates
-  sub-agent execution, performs semantic extraction, emits a sequential
-  world-state diff, and decides whether to force a subconscious evaluation.
-- Subconscious layer: `subconscious_eval` consumes gated world summaries and
-  returns a short steering directive, then resets the trigger state to avoid an
-  infinite evaluation loop.
-
-The graph nodes are:
-
-```text
-channel_ingestion
-  -> frontend_agent
-  -> agent_execution
-  -> summarization_gate
-  -> frontend_agent
-  -> context_manager_hook
-  -> subconscious_eval | END
-```
-
-The second `frontend_agent` pass is intentional. The first pass defers work to
-the Reasoning layer by writing `agent_instructions`; the second pass sees
-`agent_reply` and writes `channel_response`.
-
-## State Model
-
-`SystemState` is the committed graph state. It contains the surface channel
-fields, operational memory fields, routing flags, and an `event_log` used by the
-example output and tests.
-
-Important fields:
-
-- `messages`: channel-visible messages.
-- `agent_instructions`: macro instruction produced by the Quick layer.
-- `agent_reply`: Reasoning-layer result consumed by the Quick layer.
-- `semantic_history`: entity-centric extracted traces from execution.
-- `sequential_diffs`: small world-state mutations accumulated across cycles.
-- `gated_world_summary`: consolidated package forwarded to the subconscious
-  layer.
-- `context_utilization`: simulated context pressure.
-- `trigger_subconscious`: event escalation flag set by the Reasoning layer.
-- `cron_due`: scheduled consolidation flag.
-- `long_term_memory`: mock vector database records.
-- `retrieved_context`: memory traces retrieved for the current run.
-- `subconscious_steering`: final steering directive.
-
-Nodes do not overwrite `SystemState` directly. They return a `StatePatch`, and
-`apply_patch` merges partial updates through `ClosureStateReducer`. This mirrors
-the durable graph contract: nodes emit small updates, and the reducer is the
-single deterministic fan-in point.
-
-## Memory Lifecycle
-
-The Reasoning layer performs a mock retrieval step against `long_term_memory`.
-The implementation uses string matching rather than embeddings so the example
-has no network calls, API keys, or nondeterministic model output.
-
-When `context_utilization` reaches the eviction threshold, the
-`context_manager_hook` moves semantic traces into `long_term_memory`, replaces
-the active `semantic_history` with an eviction marker, and lowers utilization.
-This demonstrates the bi-directional memory loop:
-
-1. retrieve historical traces before execution;
-2. execute and extract semantic history;
-3. evict dense traces into long-term memory under pressure;
-4. retrieve them again on future runs.
-
-## Summarization Gate
-
-The graph does not forward every diff to the subconscious layer. The
-`summarization_gate` forwards only when either condition is true:
-
-- at least three sequential diffs are queued;
-- `trigger_subconscious` is set by the Reasoning layer.
-
-Forwarding converts the queued `WorldDiff` values into one `GatedWorldSummary`
-containing a macro trend, critical event count, and total magnitude. After
-forwarding, the diff queue is cleared. If the threshold is not met, the gate
-holds the diffs and records that decision in `event_log`.
-
-## Hybrid Triggers
-
-The example supports both event and cron-style triggers:
-
-- Event trigger: `agent_execution` sets `trigger_subconscious` when the
-  instruction contains critical anomaly terms or when context pressure is very
-  high.
-- Cron trigger: callers can seed `SystemState::cron_due = true` before running
-  the graph to force a scheduled subconscious review.
-
-`subconscious_eval` always clears both `trigger_subconscious` and `cron_due`.
-That reset is part of the circuit breaker that prevents repeated asynchronous
-evaluation loops.
-
-## Offline Simulation Boundaries
-
-This example intentionally avoids real LLM and vector database calls. It is a
-reference architecture sample, not a hosted provider integration. The simulated
-parts are isolated behind small functions:
-
-- `retrieve_context`: stand-in for vector DB retrieval.
-- `agent_execution_node`: stand-in for Reasoning LLM orchestration and
-  sub-agent spawning.
-- `summarize_diffs`: stand-in for the summarization gate model.
-- `subconscious_eval_node`: stand-in for deep reflection and steering.
-
-A production version would replace those functions with provider-backed model
-calls and a real `Retriever`, while keeping the same graph topology, state
-fields, routing flags, and reducer shape.
-
-## Test Coverage
-
-The integration test covers the main architectural guardrails:
-
-- normal execution retrieves memory and holds a single diff below the gate
-  threshold;
-- critical Reasoning escalation forces the summarization gate and routes through
-  `subconscious_eval`;
-- sequential diff accumulation triggers the subconscious layer without an
-  anomaly;
-- context pressure evicts semantic history into long-term memory;
-- the public `run_subconscious_loop` helper used by `main.rs` stays executable.
-
-These tests are offline and run as part of the default suite.

-//! A single graph node owns an `Arc<AgentHarness>` and invokes it inside a

-//! End-to-end coverage for COMPLEX durable-graph workflows.
-//!
-//! These offline tests exercise the harder compositions the durable graph
-//! runtime is meant to support:
-//!
-//! - **Graph + subgraph nesting** using BOTH embedding modes in one parent:
-//!   [`shared_subgraph_node`] (parent and child share the `State` channel) and
-//!   [`adapter_subgraph_node`] (parent state is projected into a differently
-//!   shaped child and folded back).
-//! - **Deep nesting** (a subgraph that itself embeds a subgraph, >= 2 levels)
-//!   running to completion with correctly merged state, while child checkpoints
-//!   stay isolated and never collide with the parent's checkpoint thread.
-//! - **A complex layout**: a `Command::goto` fan-out into a parallel branch set
-//!   (`with_parallel`), a join node, a conditional route, and a loop-back edge
-//!   bounded deterministically by the recursion limit.
-//!
-//! All scenarios are deterministic and run without network access.

-//! TRUE end-to-end, fully OFFLINE: parallel branch execution + forking on a

-//! This composes the **durable graph builder/executor** (`with_parallel`),
-//! the **command** model (`Command::goto` fan-out), the **reducer**
-//! (concurrent partial-update merge), and the **fork identity** carried on
-//! [`NodeContext`]. No model or network is involved, so this test always runs
-//! and must pass, with or without `OPENAI_API_KEY`.
-//!
-//! Topology built by [`fanout_graph`]:
-//!
-//! ```text
-//!            ┌──> worker-a ──┐
-//!   START -> dispatch ──> worker-b ──> aggregate -> END
-//!            └──> worker-c ──┘
-//!            └──> worker-d ──┘
-//! ```
-//!
-//! `dispatch` fans out to four worker branches via a single
-//! `Command::goto(["worker-a", .., "worker-d"])`. Each worker contributes a
-//! partial update (its produced value, the fork branch index it observed, and
-//! its own name) that the reducer folds into shared channels at the superstep
-//! boundary. The downstream `aggregate` node then reads the *merged* state and
-//! computes a derived total, proving fan-in visibility.

-//! End-to-end coverage for two independent harness building blocks:

-//! - **Part A** exercises the ordered, bounded [`map_reduce`] helper driving
-//!   *real* async agent work: each mapped item spins up (or shares) an
-//!   [`AgentHarness`] and performs a genuine `invoke_default` model call. We
-//!   assert input-order preservation, skewed-completion ordering, every failure
-//!   policy, and concurrency bounding.
-//! - **Part B** feeds a durable [`InMemoryEventJournal`] from a real recorded
-//!   harness run and exercises windowed / filtered reads, then validates run
-//!   lineage queries over an [`InMemoryStatusStore`].

-//! LIVE end-to-end: a durable [`CompiledGraph`] whose single node drives a real
-//! OpenAI [`AgentHarness`] — but only *after* a human-in-the-loop interrupt.
-//!
-//! This composes the **durable graph runtime** (builder/executor + reducer), the
-//! **checkpointer** (durability), the **command/interrupt** model, and a real
-//! network-backed **harness** run. The flow deliberately straddles the model
-//! call with a checkpoint boundary:
-//!
-//! 1. First pass: the node sees no `resume` value and immediately interrupts
-//!    *before* making any model call. The runtime persists a checkpoint.
-//! 2. Resume: a [`Command::resume`] re-enters the node, which now performs the
-//!    real OpenAI model call and folds the answer into state.
-//!
-//! We assert *structurally* — the run pauses, a checkpoint persists, the resumed
-//! run completes, and a model call actually happened — never on LLM prose.
-//!
-//! # Skips gracefully
-//!
-//! This test is `#[ignore]`d and only runs opted in via
-//! `tests/common/live.rs::require_live`, so `cargo test` passes with no key
-//! configured and never dials a real provider by accident.

Subject: [PATCH 0995/1076] refactor(agent_loop): remove the LoopDriver phase
 seam

The typed phase contracts, the LoopDriver trait, and the LoopExecution
policy switch are gone, so invoke always runs the full-fidelity
run_loop body instead of optionally delegating to a graph driver. The
alternate engine covered only a subset of the loop's behavior, and
keeping the seam meant maintaining a second path that could silently
diverge from the real one.

-//! Typed phase contracts and the [`LoopDriver`] seam for driving the agent
-//! loop as discrete steps instead of the monolithic [`super::run_loop`] body.
-//!
-//! # Why this module exists
-//!
-//! `tinyagents-graph` depends on `tinyagents-harness` (never the reverse), so
-//! a compiled-graph rendition of the agent loop (`tinyagents_graph::agent_loop`,
-//! A5 in `docs/runtime-comparison/feature-gaps.md`) must live in the graph
-//! crate. This module is the harness-side half of that boundary: it defines
-//! the data that crosses a node edge in the graph rendition (a turn's plan,
-//! a model call's outcome, a tool batch's outcome, and how a turn settled),
-//! and the [`LoopDriver`] trait that lets an [`AgentHarness`] delegate
-//! `invoke`/`invoke_with_status` to an alternate engine — the graph crate's
-//! `GraphLoopDriver` — instead of [`super::run_loop`].
-//!
-//! # Scope
-//!
-//! [`super::run_loop`]'s body (`run_loop_body` in `run_loop.rs`) is a single
-//! ~1,100-line function that interleaves request building, host-model
-//! routing, cross-provider handoff transforms, truncated-empty-response
-//! recovery, every structured-output strategy, host budget admission, and
-//! the A6 end-strategy resolution — all behaviorally load-bearing and
-//! covered by the harness's ~1,174-test baseline. Splitting that function
-//! into four clean phase functions **in place** (rewriting `run_loop_body`
-//! itself to call them) was judged too risky to attempt as part of this
-//! change: it would touch the single highest-blast-radius function in the
-//! crate with no incremental way to verify each extracted phase preserves
-//! every one of those behaviors.
-//!
-//! Instead, this module defines the phase *contracts* — the types a graph
-//! node reads and writes — and the [`LoopDriver`] hook that lets
-//! `tinyagents-graph` supply a complete alternate implementation of those
-//! phases (`tinyagents_graph::agent_loop`). That implementation intentionally
-//! covers a **subset** of `run_loop_body`'s behavior (documented on
-//! `tinyagents_graph::agent_loop::compile_loop`): the common tool-calling /
-//! structured-output / limit / interrupt / steering paths, without host-model
-//! routing, cross-provider handoff transforms, the deferred-tool discovery
-//! bridge, or truncated-empty-response recovery. [`RunPolicy::execution`]
-//! defaults to [`LoopExecution::Direct`], so every existing caller keeps
-//! running the full-fidelity `run_loop_body` unless it explicitly opts in.

Subject: [PATCH 0996/1076] docs: remove graph runtime references from harness
 docs

Updated README and doc comments across the harness, orchestration, and tools crates to drop references to the removed graph runtime, pointing at the harness-native equivalents instead. Also deleted the state-graph and runtime-comparison documents that described the retired graph design.

-# Harness State Graph Runtime
-
-This document describes what actually exists in the workspace today. An
-earlier draft of this file sketched an aspirational `StateGraph<S>` design
-inspired by an OpenHuman PR; none of those types (`GraphState`, `Node<S>`,
-`Command::Fork`, a `StateGraph` builder) were ever implemented under
-`tinyagents-harness`. The real state-graph runtime lives in the
-`tinyagents-graph` crate (`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/`), documented in
-`docs/modules/graph/`, and this page now only covers the one harness-facing
-surface that is genuinely new: the compiled-graph rendition of the agent loop
-(A5, `docs/runtime-comparison/langgraph.md` §4 and
-`docs/runtime-comparison/pydantic-ai.md` §4's `iter` API).
-
-## Where the graph runtime actually lives
-
-`tinyagents-graph`'s `GraphBuilder`/`CompiledGraph` (`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/builder/`,
-`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/compiled/`) is the durable, typed, Pregel-style
-state graph: partial updates and reducers (`reducer`), commands and
-interrupts (`command`), checkpointing (`checkpoint`, with `InMemoryCheckpointer`,
-and `DriverCheckpointer`), streaming/events
-(`stream`), subgraph embedding (`subgraph`), and recursion tracking
-(`recursion`). See `docs/modules/graph/` for that design in full; nothing on
-this page duplicates it.
-
-`tinyagents-harness` does not implement its own competing graph engine. What
-it exposes, in `tinyagents_harness::agent_loop::phases`, is a **seam**: typed
-phase contracts (`TurnPlan`, `ModelOutcome`, `ToolBatchOutcome`, `Settlement`)
-and a `LoopDriver` trait that lets `AgentHarness` delegate its loop execution
-to an alternate engine. `tinyagents-graph` is the only implementor of that
-seam, because the dependency direction in this workspace is graph → harness
-(never the reverse) — a compiled-graph rendition of the harness's own loop
-therefore has to live in the graph crate, wired back in through this trait.
-
-## The agent loop as a `CompiledGraph` (A5)
-
-`tinyagents_graph::agent_loop` (`crates/tinyagents-graph/src/agent_loop/`)
-compiles the harness's default `plan -> model -> tools -> settle` loop into
-an ordinary `CompiledGraph<LoopState, LoopUpdate>`. `LoopState` is a
-whole-state graph value (`LoopUpdate = LoopState`, built with
-`GraphBuilder::overwrite()`): every node returns the complete next state
-rather than a partial patch. It is `Serialize`/`Deserialize`, unlike the
-harness's own `RunContext` (deliberately not serializable), so a
-graph-driven run can be checkpointed mid-run — including at an interrupt —
-and resumed.

-  `Arc`'d, `RunContext`/`AgentRun`/`HarnessRunStatus` owned). This is the
-  graph that gets checkpointing, `resume`, and step-by-step control.
-- **`AgentLoopGraphExt::iter(harness: Arc<AgentHarness<..>>, app_state, ctx, input) -> LoopIter`**
-  mirrors pydantic-ai's `Agent.iter`: `LoopIter::next()` runs exactly one
-  node activation and reports a `LoopStep` (which node ran, what runs next,
-  whether it interrupted); `override_next(node)` redirects the next
-  activation; `state()` reads the committed `LoopState`; `run_to_end()` steps
-  until completion or the first unresolved interrupt.
-- **`GraphLoopDriver`** implements `phases::LoopDriver` and is installed with
-  `AgentHarness::with_loop_driver` plus
-  `RunPolicy::execution = LoopExecution::Graph` (the default,
-  `LoopExecution::Direct`, is the original `run_loop` body, byte-for-byte
-  unchanged). This makes `AgentHarness::invoke` itself run the graph-rendition
-  node bodies.
-
-### Why `GraphLoopDriver` does not build a `CompiledGraph`
-
-`phases::LoopDriver::drive` is handed a **borrowed** `&AgentHarness`/`&State`
-and `&mut RunContext`/`&mut AgentRun`/`&mut HarnessRunStatus` — the same
-shape `run_loop` itself uses. `GraphBuilder::add_node`'s closures must be
-`Send + Sync + 'static`, so a `CompiledGraph`'s nodes can only close over
-genuinely owned (`Arc`'d) data. Building an `Arc<AgentHarness>` from a bare
-`&AgentHarness` is not possible in safe Rust, and this workspace denies
-`unsafe_code`. Forcing every `with_loop_driver` caller to already hold an
-`Arc<AgentHarness>` before installing a driver would also be circular (the
-harness does not exist as an `Arc` until after it is fully built, including
-its driver).
-
-So `GraphLoopDriver::drive` instead calls the exact same node bodies
-directly, in a hand-rolled loop, against the real borrowed `&mut` state — no
-`Arc`, no `Mutex`, no `CompiledGraph`. This is sound with zero unsafe code
-because a borrowed async call needs no `'static` bound. The trade-off: an
-interrupt raised through `AgentHarness::invoke` (`RunPolicy::execution ==
-Graph`) still ends the run cleanly (mirroring a steering pause, or
-`TinyAgentsError::Interrupted` for a `MiddlewareControl::Interrupt` — see
-below) but is **not** a resumable `CompiledGraph` checkpoint. A caller that
-wants graph-level checkpoint/resume across an interrupt should drive the loop
-through `compile_loop`/`LoopIter` directly instead of through
-`AgentHarness::invoke`.
-
-### Routing and interrupts
-
-Every node routes explicitly (`mark_command_routing` on all four nodes) via
-`Command::goto`, driven by `tinyagents_harness::context::MiddlewareControl`:
-
-| `MiddlewareControl` | Graph routing |
-| --- | --- |
-| `Continue` / `UpdateState` | falls through to whatever the calling node had already determined the turn's natural next step to be (tool routing from `model`, `plan` from `tools`) |
-| `JumpTo(Model)` | routes to `plan` (closing any unanswered tool calls first) |
-| `JumpTo(Tools)` | routes to `tools` if there are pending calls, else `settle` |
-| `JumpTo(End)` / `StopWithFinal` | routes to `settle` with `finished = true` |
-| `Interrupt { node, message }` | `NodeResult::Interrupt` — a real, checkpointable `crate::Interrupt` returned directly by the `plan`/`model`/`tools` node bodies through `compile_loop`/`LoopIter` (these nodes are marked as interrupt points for the export only — via the `NodeMeta` flag directly, not `GraphBuilder::mark_interrupt`, which now aliases the real `interrupt_before` pause and would double-pause every activation); through `GraphLoopDriver` this instead surfaces as `TinyAgentsError::Interrupted`, matching `run_loop`'s own behavior for this control |
-
-A steering pause (`SteeringOutcome::Pause`, checked in `plan_node`) also
-produces a `NodeResult::Interrupt`, distinguished from a middleware interrupt
-by its id suffix (`-steering-pause`); `GraphLoopDriver` treats that one as a
-clean pause (`run.paused`, `Ok(())`), exactly like `run_loop`'s
-`LoopExit::Paused`.
-
-`RunLimits` (model/tool call caps) are enforced through the same
-`RunContext::limits`/`LimitTracker` the direct loop uses, reconciled against
-`RunPolicy::limits` with the identical (`runtime::reconcile_call_limits`)
-logic `run_loop_body` applies at the top of a run, so
-`RunConfig::with_max_model_calls` and `RunPolicy::limits` interact
-identically under both engines. A cap hit surfaces as
-`TinyAgentsError::LimitExceeded` (or a clean `LimitStop`-style finish under
-`LimitBehavior::StopWithPartial`) either way.
-
-### Tool batch execution
-
-The `tools` node runs a turn's whole tool-call batch in **one** node
-activation, via `tinyagents_harness::agent_loop::phases::execute_tool_batch`,
-rather than one graph node (or one `Send` fan-out branch) per call. The
-direct loop's serial-admission / serial-or-concurrent-dispatch decision (see
-`tinyagents_harness::agent_loop::tools`) is call-count- and
-middleware-dependent; re-deriving it as graph topology would either duplicate
-that decision as a router (two sources of truth) or lose the exact
-ordering/budget guarantees the direct loop promises. Reusing the harness
-function as-is keeps ordering, concurrency-eligibility, and budget/limit
-semantics identical to the direct loop by construction — at the cost of a
-coarser graph: a `tools` activation is atomic from the executor's point of
-view, so resuming after an interrupt mid-batch re-runs the whole batch, not
-just its unfinished calls.
-
-### Documented scope (not a byte-for-byte reimplementation)
-
-`tinyagents_graph::agent_loop` covers the common path: tool calling,
-structured output (`ResponseFormat::Auto`/`JsonSchema`, provider-schema and
-tool-call-fallback strategies), the output-validation retry loop (A3), run
-limits, `MiddlewareControl` routing, and steering. It intentionally does
-**not** cover: host-model routing (`HostCapabilities`), cross-provider
-handoff transforms, the deferred-tool discovery bridge, truncated-empty-
-response recovery/retry, `RunPolicy::retry`/`fallback`'s built-in retry loop
-(a registered `ModelMiddleware` still runs), response caching, and
-`StructuredStrategy::Prompted`/`ToolCallUnion` or
-`EndStrategy::Early`/`Exhaustive` (A6). `resolve_structured_plan` also
-resolves a profile-driven `ResponseFormat::Auto` choice against the
-*default* model binding rather than the turn's actually-resolved model.
-`RunPolicy::execution` defaults to `LoopExecution::Direct`, so no existing
-caller is affected unless it opts in.
-
-Equivalence between the two engines is covered by
-`crates/tinyagents-integration-tests/tests/loop_as_graph.rs`: scripted tool
-call, structured output, output-validation retry, limit stop, approval
-interrupt, and steering-inject scenarios run through both `Direct` and
-`Graph`, asserting matching transcript/structured output/usage and that the
-direct run's `AgentEvent` kind sequence is a subsequence of the graph run's
-(the graph engine may emit extra events — for example `ToolsAdvertised` once
-per turn instead of once per run — but never fewer or reordered ones); plus
-checkpoint+resume across an interrupt (`InMemoryCheckpointer` and
-`DriverCheckpointer`) and `LoopIter` stepping with `override_next`.

-
-`cargo clippy -p tinyagents-graph -p tinyagents-orchestration -p tinyagents-session --all-targets -- -W clippy::pedantic` is clean under default lints; 564 pedantic warnings for graph (mostly `must_use`, `missing_errors_doc`, casts), notably: `execute_run` 499 lines, `run_active_parallel` 121 lines, `state_api::update_state` 121 lines.
-
-## 1. Architecture as-built
-
-Entry points `CompiledGraph::{run, run_with_thread, run_with_inputs, resume, resume_from, retry}`
-(`compiled/executor.rs:18-244`) all funnel into `execute` → `execute_run` (`executor.rs:505`).
-One run = a loop over supersteps on an `active: Vec<Activation>` (`compiled/mod.rs:176`,
-`Activation {node, send_arg, task_id}`):
-
-1. Guards: `steps >= min(recursion_limit, policy.max_total_steps)` (`executor.rs:601-616`),
-   wall-clock `run_deadline` (`:623`), `max_visits_per_node` (`:643`).
-2. Assign task ids `"{steps}:{index}:{node}"` (`:661-665`), emit `StepStarted`.
-3. Run handlers: sequential (`run_active_sequential`, `:1377`) or, with `with_parallel(true)`
-   and >1 active, `run_active_parallel` (`:1483`; `join_all` or a `select_all` rolling window
-   under `max_concurrency`). Every handler gets `state.clone()` and a fresh `NodeContext`
-   (`:1297`, `:1247`). Per-node timeout + retry policy wrap each attempt (`:1265-1310`).
-4. Fold results in index order (`fold_result`, `:1320`): updates → `Vec<Update>`, `Command.goto`
-   → `goto_map[index]`, first `Interrupt`/error → stop folding (`break` at `:1444/:1458/:1617/:1631`).
-5. Boundary: `state = reducer.apply(state, update)` for each update (`:726`).
-6. Failure boundary (`:764-830`): route the completed prefix `active[..failed_index]`, then
-   `pending = successors ++ active[failed_index..]`, persist a failure checkpoint, status Failed.
-7. Interrupt boundary (`:838-926`): same shape with `active[..index]`, persist checkpoint with
-   `interrupts` + `metadata.interrupted_nodes`, return `GraphExecution{interrupts}`.
-8. Otherwise `route_completed(active)` (`compiled/routing.rs:15`): `goto` > static edge >
-   conditional branch; waiting-edge barriers accumulate in `barrier_arrivals`; `Send` targets
-   are not deduped, plain targets are. Persist per `DurabilityMode` (`:947-1038`), chain
-   `parent_checkpoint`, `active = next`.
-
-Checkpoint record: `Checkpoint<State>` (`checkpoint/types.rs:151`) = full `state` clone +
-`next_nodes` + `completed_tasks` + inline `pending_writes` (completion markers only) +
-`pending_activations` + `barrier_arrivals` + `interrupts` + free-form `metadata` JSON. The
-executor calls `put` then `put_writes` (`executor.rs:1696-1697`), so the same markers are
-stored twice. There is no format version, no timestamp, no channel versions, no delta scheme:
-every superstep snapshots the whole state.
-
-Resume (`resume_from_inner`, `executor.rs:246`): load the scoped checkpoint, take
-`pending_activations` (fallback `next_nodes`), filter out tasks with a completion marker,
-key the resume value on `metadata.interrupted_nodes` (fallback: fan across pending), then call
-`execute` with `steps = 0` and `initial_parent = loaded id`.
-
-State API (`compiled/state_api.rs`): `get_state`, `get_state_history`, `update_state`
-(latest only), `bulk_update_state`, `fork_state` (new root, no parent).
-
-Subgraphs (`subgraph/mod.rs`): a node handler that clones the child graph with namespace
-`parent_ns ++ [node_id]` and calls `run_with_thread` / `resume` depending on `ctx.resume`
-(`drive_child`, `:135-164`). A child interrupt is re-emitted as the parent node's result.
-
-Other crates: `tinyagents-orchestration/workflow/engine.rs` is a *second* scheduler: phases
-are a JSON `phase_states` blob persisted through the session run ledger (CAS + lease), with
-`map_reduce` for fan-out; it does not use `CompiledGraph` at all (the graph in
-`workflow/graph.rs` is a topology preview only). `teams/graph.rs` wraps one worker future in
-an unthreaded, uncheckpointed 2-node graph. `tinyagents-session` is a SQLite ledger
-(one `Connection::open` per operation, `store.rs:65`, WAL + busy_timeout).
-
-Divergence from docs (see also findings): `docs/modules/graph/execution.md` lists a target
-executor with channel versions, cached-write replay, task-level `TaskStarted/TaskCached`
-events; none exist. `checkpointing.md:56-77` lists checkpoint fields (version, timestamp,
-channel versions, versions seen, task outcomes) that the record does not have.
-`interrupts.md` shows `interrupt_before/after`, resume-by-interrupt-id maps, and
-`resume_targeted`; none are implemented (`mark_interrupt` is export-only,
-`builder/mod.rs:365`). `parallel-agents-forking.md:156-166` promises "resuming from
-interrupt restarts the interrupted child task, not unrelated completed siblings", which is
-false for higher-index siblings (Critical 1).
-
-## 2. Findings
-
-### Critical
-
-**C1. Completed parallel siblings after the interrupting/failing index are discarded and
-re-executed on resume.**
-`executor.rs:1600-1633` (parallel fold):
-```rust
-for (index, (activation, result)) in active.iter().zip(results).enumerate() {
-    ...
-    Err(error) => { ... failure = Some(StepFailure{failed_index: index, error}); break; }
-    ...
-    if let Some(found) = self.fold_result(...) { interrupt = Some(found); break; }
-```
-and `executor.rs:869` / `:790`: `pending.extend(active[index..].iter().cloned());`.
-`join_all` has already driven every branch to completion, so branches `index+1..` finished
-(LLM calls, tool side effects, sub-agent runs), yet their `NodeResult`s are dropped and they
-are scheduled to run again. The docs' own contract ("failed sibling tasks do not force
-successful child agents to rerun once pending writes are saved") is not met; the pending-write
-ledger only records the *lower-index* prefix. Fix: fold every `Ok` result regardless of
-position; record all completed tasks in `completed_tasks`/`pending_writes`; make `pending`
-= successors of *all* completed + only the interrupted/failed activations. The test
-`parallel_interrupt_pauses_at_lowest_index_branch` (`compiled/test.rs:1002`) pins the current
-behaviour and would need updating. Effort: M.
-
-**C2. Successors of completed siblings run in the *same* superstep as the re-run of the
-interrupted/failed node, observing a different state than an uninterrupted run would.**
-`executor.rs:856-869`: `pending = route_completed(active[..index]) ++ active[index..]`.
-Uninterrupted: step N = [A, B]; step N+1 = [S_A, S_B] and S_A sees B's update.
-Interrupted at B: resume step 1 = [S_A, B]; S_A now reads a state *without* B's update, and
-B's update lands one step later. Any node that aggregates over sibling output through a plain
-edge (not a waiting edge) silently produces different results depending on whether an
-interrupt happened. LangGraph avoids this by re-running only the incomplete tasks of the
-*same* step and applying all writes together. Fix: persist the completed tasks' updates as
-real pending writes (requires `Update: Serialize` for durable backends, or store the
-already-reduced partial state plus "tasks still owed for step N"), and on resume finish step N
-before routing anyone. Effort: L (ties to R2 below).
-
-**C3. No per-thread execution lock: two concurrent `run_with_thread`/`resume` on the same
-thread interleave one lineage.**
-`executor.rs:246-390` takes no lock; `delegation/run.rs:139-160` and `:200-212` each add their
-own `ThreadLockMap` and say why: "neither this wrapper nor the `CompiledGraph` run/resume
-entry points hold a per-thread lock across that gap on their own". Backends allow duplicate
-`(thread_id, checkpoint_id)` rows (`sqlite.rs:135-147` has no UNIQUE constraint) and `get(None)`
-returns the last inserted row, so two writers produce a thread whose "latest" flips between
-two histories and whose `parent_checkpoint_id` chains cross. Fix: an in-process
-`ThreadLockMap` guard in `execute` keyed by `(thread_id, namespace)` plus an optional durable
-lease in `Checkpointer` (`try_claim(thread, owner, ttl)`) like `run_ledger::try_claim_workflow_run`
-(`session/run_ledger/ops.rs:169`). Effort: S (in-process) / M (durable).
-
-**C4. Subgraph failures are not resumable through the parent; `retry` restarts the child from
-scratch and re-runs its completed nodes.**
-`subgraph/mod.rs:161`: `(Some(thread_id), None, None) => child.run_with_thread(thread_id, state)`.
-After a child node fails, the child writes a failure checkpoint in its namespace and the parent
-writes one scheduling the subgraph node. `parent.retry()` re-runs the node with `resume = None`
-→ fresh `run_with_thread` with `initial_parent = None`: the child's partial progress is ignored,
-its completed nodes (with side effects) re-execute, and a second root-less lineage is appended
-to the same namespace. Fix: in `drive_child`, before running fresh, check
-`get_scoped(thread, None, child_ns)` for a checkpoint with non-empty pending activations
-whose `metadata.failed_node` is set (or any pending), and `retry` it; also record the child's
-checkpoint id in the parent's activation so the association is explicit. Effort: M.
-
-### Important
-
-**I1. `Send` fan-out of the same subgraph node shares one checkpoint namespace.**
-`subgraph/mod.rs:109-113`: namespace = parent ++ `[ctx.node_id]` only. N concurrent
-activations of node `worker` (map-reduce over a subgraph) write N interleaved lineages under
-`["worker"]`; on parent resume each activation calls `child.resume(thread)` → `get_scoped(...,
-None)` → all N resume from whichever child wrote last. Fix: namespace by
-`[node_id, task_id]` (task id is already on the `Activation`, `compiled/mod.rs:179`) and expose
-`NodeContext.task_id`. Effort: S. (Same identity gap: `resume_map` is keyed by `NodeId`,
-`executor.rs:361-374`, `:1247`, so only the first same-node activation receives the value.)
-
-**I2. `update_state` erases interrupt provenance, so a later `resume(value)` fans the value to
-every pending node.** `state_api.rs:228-231` writes `interrupts: Vec::new()` and metadata
-`{source, step}` without `interrupted_nodes`; `compiled/mod.rs:229-251` then finds nothing
-stamped and nothing in `interrupts`, and `executor.rs:363-366` falls back to fanning across
-`active`. The documented flow "inspect → `update_state` → `resume`" therefore hands
-`ctx.resume` to nodes that never interrupted. Fix: carry `interrupts` and `interrupted_nodes`
-through an `update` checkpoint unless `as_node` names the interrupted node. Effort: S.
-
-**I3. Step counter, node-visit counts and recursion caps reset on every resume.**
-`executor.rs:518` `let mut steps = 0usize;` and `:513-520` fresh `node_visits`. A loop that
-interrupts (or fails and is auto-retried by a host) every step is unbounded; checkpoint
-`metadata.step` restarts at 1 after each resume, so `get_state_history` shows non-monotonic
-steps and `update_state`'s `parent_step + 1` (`state_api.rs:231`) is meaningless across
-resumes. Fix: seed `steps` from the loaded checkpoint's `to_metadata().step` and persist
-`node_visits` in metadata. Effort: S.
-
-**I4. Node panics and mid-superstep cancellation leave the run `Running` forever with no
-terminal event.** No `catch_unwind` anywhere in `compiled/` (grep). A panic in a handler
-unwinds through `join_all`/`fut.await` (`:1297`); dropping the run future (host timeout,
-`tokio::select!`) skips `fail_run`, `save_status`, `RunFailed`, and drops
-`AsyncCheckpointWrites` (detaching in-flight writes, contrary to its own contract at
-`types.rs:141-149`). The executor also has no `CancellationToken` input at all (`map_reduce`
-and `SubAgentPolicy` do). Fix: wrap handler futures in `AssertUnwindSafe(..).catch_unwind()`
-mapped to `TinyAgentsError::Graph`; add `run_with_cancel(token)` checked at step boundaries and
-raced against the handler set; add a `Drop` guard on `execute_run` that writes a `Cancelled`
-status. Effort: M.
-
-**I5. The channel state model is not durable.** `channel/types.rs:240` `ChannelState` (and
-`ChannelSet`, holding `Box<dyn Channel>`) has no `Serialize`/`Deserialize`, so the only state
-model with per-key reducers, conflict detection and barrier channels cannot be used with
-`FileCheckpointer` or `SqliteCheckpointer` (both bound `State: Serialize + DeserializeOwned`,
-`file.rs:372`, `sqlite.rs:203`). `state-channels.md` presents channels as the way to get
-"checkpoints can store pending writes". Fix: serialize `ChannelSet` as `{kind, config}` per
-channel + values (each `Channel` already has `kind()`), with a registry for
-`BinaryAggregate` closures. Effort: M.
-
-**I6. Checkpoint format has no version and four overlapping projections of "what runs next".**
-`checkpoint/types.rs:151-201`: `next_nodes`, `completed_tasks`, `pending_writes`,
-`pending_activations` all derive from the same activation list and can disagree when written
-by hand/`update_state` (`state_api.rs` has a long comment defending the merge for that reason).
-No `format_version` field means a future incompatible change can only be detected by serde
-`Category::Data` heuristics (`checkpoint/mod.rs:70-99` documents this as an accepted risk).
-`delegation` works around it with its own `schema_version` in the state (`delegation/run.rs`).
-Fix: v2 record with `version: u32`, `tasks: Vec<PendingActivation>` as the single source, and
-`completed: Vec<TaskId>`; keep a v1 → v2 decoder. Effort: M.
-
-**I7. `Interrupt::new` ids are process-local counters, unlike checkpoint/run ids.**
-`command/mod.rs:110-112`: `INTERRUPT_SEQ.fetch_add` + `format!("interrupt-{node}-{seq}")`.
-After a restart the same `(node, seq)` is re-minted; `GraphRunStatus.pending_interrupts`
-(`status/types.rs`) and any UI keyed on interrupt id conflate two pauses. `ids::new_checkpoint_id`
-already solved this with a process nonce (`harness/src/ids/mod.rs:135`). Fix: use it. Effort: S.
-
-**I8. SQLite backend: synchronous I/O on the async executor path, no WAL, no busy timeout,
-and full-state loads for `state_history(limit)`.** Only `put` uses `spawn_blocking`
-(`sqlite.rs:207`); `get`, `get_scoped`, `list`, `state_history`, `get_thread`, `put_writes`,
-`delete_*` lock a `std::sync::Mutex<Connection>` and run queries inline in `async fn`
-(`:268`, `:314`, `:359`, `:436`, `:472`, `:491`, `:619`). `from_connection` never sets
-`journal_mode=WAL`/`busy_timeout`/`synchronous` (the session crate does, `session/store.rs:49-55`).
-`state_history` reads and deserializes *every* record of the namespace even for `limit: Some(1)`
-(`:353-374`). `put` and `put_writes` are two transactions. Fix: `spawn_blocking` everywhere,
-pragmas on open, `LIMIT`-driven lineage query (walk parents with a recursive CTE), one
-transaction per boundary. Effort: M.
-
-**I9. File backend: `list`/`get_scoped`/resume deserialize every full record; `put_writes`
-rewrites and fsyncs the whole sidecar every superstep.** `file.rs:451`
-`list` → `read_records` (`:247`, full `Checkpoint<State>` decode); `FileCheckpointer` does not
-override `get_scoped` (no match in `file.rs`), so `resume`/`update_state`/`fork_state` cost
-O(H) full-state decodes plus a second streaming pass in `get`. The trait doc at
-`checkpoint/mod.rs:129` claims "both durable backends do [override]" — false. `put_writes`
-(`:621-653`) is read-modify-rewrite with `write_atomic` (fsync), synchronously on the executor
-task. Fix: header-only decode for `list` (as `get` already does), override `get_scoped`,
-append-only writes sidecar keyed by checkpoint id, `spawn_blocking`. Effort: M.
-
-**I10. `GraphBuilder::add_edge` silently overwrites a previous edge from the same node.**
-`builder/mod.rs:195-197`: `self.edges.insert(from.into(), to.into())` (also `add_waiting_edge`,
-`:226`). `edges: HashMap<NodeId, NodeId>` means static fan-out is impossible and
-`add_edge("a","b").add_edge("a","c")` compiles to `a → c` with no error; `routing.md:49-52`
-lists "one or more node names" as a routing output. Fix: `HashMap<NodeId, Vec<NodeId>>`, or at
-least return `Validation` on a second insert. Effort: S/M.
-
-**I11. `#![cfg_attr(not(feature = "tracing"), allow(dead_code, unused_imports,
-unused_variables))]` at crate root hides dead code in the default build.**
-`tinyagents-graph/src/lib.rs:25-28`, `tinyagents-session/src/lib.rs:1-4`. The default feature
-set is `tracing` off, so every unused item in both crates is invisible to `cargo clippy -D
-warnings`. Evidence of accumulation: `StreamMode` (`stream/types.rs:220`) is exported and
-consumed nowhere; `WRITES_IDX_RESUME/ERROR/INTERRUPT` (`checkpoint/types.rs:272-278`) are only
-used by the conformance suite — the executor never persists a resume value, so a resumed node
-that crashes loses it and `retry` re-interrupts; `CompiledGraph.command_nodes` and
-`BuilderNode.id` carry explicit `#[allow(dead_code)]`. Fix: make the tracing macros expand to
-`{ let _ = (...); }` in the off configuration and delete the crate-level allow. Effort: S.
-
-**I12. Two durable schedulers with different semantics.** `orchestration/workflow/engine.rs`
-implements phase DAG scheduling, lease/CAS persistence, cancellation and resume in ~830 lines
-of JSON manipulation (`state.rs` string-typed statuses `"running"`, `"completed"`), emitting
-`GraphEvent::NodeStarted{node: "run_phase", step: total_spawned+1}` (`engine.rs:428`) to look
-like a graph. `workflow/graph.rs:37` says "`WorkflowEngine` installs its effectful variants
-below" but the engine never runs that graph. The graph runtime already has waiting edges,
-`Send` fan-out, `max_concurrency`, checkpoints and resume; the workflow engine re-implements
-them without any of the executor's tests. Fix: lower a `WorkflowDefinition` to a
-`CompiledGraph` (phase = node, `depends_on` = waiting edges, agents = `Send` fan-out) and keep
-the run ledger as a status projection. Effort: L.

-**M1. `execute_run` is 499 lines with 12 `#[allow(clippy::too_many_arguments)]`** across
-`compiled/` (`executor.rs`, `mod.rs`). Thirteen positional args of `Option<&..>`/`&HashMap`
-(`persist_checkpoint`, `:1652-1666`) are error-prone. Introduce a `RunCtx` struct (run id,
-thread, started_at, recursion meta, barriers, async writes) and a `Boundary` struct. Effort: M.
-
-**M2. Hot-path cloning.** `executor.rs:1297` clones `State` per handler *per attempt*;
-`:1188`/`:1855` clone it again per checkpoint; `serde_json::to_string(&checkpoint)` per
-boundary; `Send` args cloned into `Activation`, `PendingActivation`, `NodeContext`. For
-`serde_json::Value` states with message histories this is O(history) per node per step. Fix:
-`NodeHandler = Fn(Arc<State>, NodeContext)` (one clone per step), `Arc<Value>` send args.
-Effort: M (API break).
-
-**M3. `run_deadline` uses `SystemTime::elapsed`** (`executor.rs:624`); wall-clock jumps make
-runs fail or never time out. Use `Instant`. Effort: S.
-
-**M4. Status-store errors are swallowed** (`executor.rs:500` `let _ = store.put_status`), so a
-dead status backend is invisible. Log at warn at minimum. Effort: S.
-
-**M5. Async durability skips `put_writes`.** `executor.rs:1764` background task only calls
-`put`; sync path calls both. Ledger tooling sees no markers for async-mode runs. Effort: S.
-
-**M6. `GraphEvent` carries no run id/task id/namespace on step/node events**
-(`stream/types.rs:46-104`); the module doc (`stream/mod.rs:8-10`) claims nested streams can be
-"attributed back up the run tree", but only the journal wrapper adds that. Add a `RunRef`
-header or emit `(run_id, event)`. Effort: S/M.
-
-**M7. `GraphEventJournal` is lossy under load.** `observability/mod.rs:464` uses the harness
-`AppendWorker`, which `try_send`s and increments `dropped` when the bounded queue is full
-(`harness/src/observability/worker.rs:250-253`). A "durable ... replay" journal that drops
-events should at least expose `dropped()` on `JournalGraphSink` and document it. Effort: S.
-
-**M8. Router closures return `String`, `Route` is unused by the executor** (`builder/types.rs`
-`RouterFn = dyn Fn(&State) -> String`; `Route` newtype defined but branches key on `String`).
-A typo in a route label is a runtime `MissingRoute`. Effort: S.
-
-**M9. `language::build_graph` drops declared conditional routes**: `language.rs:41`
-`Routing::Conditional(_) => builder.mark_command_routing(...)` ignores the route table, so a
-blueprint's routing is not validated against what the node's `Command` may return. Effort: S.
-
-**M10. Session ledger opens a new SQLite connection per operation** (`session/store.rs:65`),
-including the lease heartbeat every `lease/3` (`engine.rs:585`), and all ledger calls are sync
-inside `async fn drive`. A small connection cache or `spawn_blocking` would help. Effort: S.
-
-**M11. `PhaseRegistration::register` performs a blocking DB CAS under a `parking_lot::Mutex`
-inside an async executor callback** (`engine.rs:217-224`). Effort: S.
-
-**M12. Subgraph doc lists unimplemented requirements as if present** (`subgraphs.md:15-25`:
-isolated child thread ids, checkpointer override, `Command::Parent`, child state in parent
-task metadata). Mark them as target or remove. Effort: S.
-
-## 3. Structural refactors worth doing
-
-**R1. Split `compiled/executor.rs` along boundaries, not along "public vs private".**
-`RunCtx` (identity, clocks, recursion meta, async writes), `StepRunner` (sequential/parallel,
-returning a `StepOutcome` with *all* results), `Boundary` (apply reducer, route, persist), and
-`Resume` (load + filter + resume map). This is the precondition for C1/C2 because the "which
-results do we keep" decision is currently spread over four `break`s and two `extend`s. Risk:
-low, pure code motion with the existing 100 unit tests as a net.
-
-**R2. Real pending-writes: make the executor persist task outputs, not just markers.**
-Add `Update: Serialize + DeserializeOwned` bounds on the durable checkpointers only (the
-in-memory path stays bound-free), store `PendingWrite.payload = serde_json::to_value(update)`,
-and on resume replay stored writes for completed tasks of the interrupted step instead of
-re-running them (this is what `execution.md`'s "cached writes replay without rerunning nodes"
-describes). Fixes C1 and C2 and gives `WRITES_IDX_RESUME` a purpose (persist the resume value
-so `retry` after a crash still has it). Migration risk: medium; the `Update` bound is a public
-API change for durable users, hidden behind a `DurableUpdate` marker trait with a blanket impl.
-
-**R3. Checkpoint format v2 + versioned channels.** Add `version`, `created_at`, `task_id`
-on `Interrupt`, one `tasks` list, and an optional `channel_versions: BTreeMap<String, u64>`
-written by `ChannelState` (I5). Versioned channels are what make subgraph output merging
-correct (`shared_subgraph_node` returns the child's *whole* final state as the parent update,
-so an append reducer double-applies inherited messages) and what enables delta snapshots
-(`prune` already documents "delta-channel" semantics that nothing implements,
-`checkpoint/mod.rs:462-476`). Risk: medium; needs a decode shim for v1 rows and a
-`FileCheckpointer`/`SqliteCheckpointer` migration test.
-
-**R4. Per-thread run lease in the executor (C3)** with an in-process `ThreadLockMap` (already
-exists at `thread_locks/mod.rs`) and an optional `Checkpointer::try_claim/renew/release`
-defaulting to no-op; `delegation/run.rs` can then drop its private lock map. Risk: low.
-
-**R5. Typed task identity.** `TaskId` exists in `harness::ids` (used by `RecursionFrame`),
-but the executor uses `String` task ids, `Interrupt` has none, and `NodeContext` does not
-expose it. Threading `TaskId` through `Activation`, `PendingActivation`, `PendingWrite`,
-`Interrupt`, `NodeContext`, and the subgraph namespace (I1) closes several identity bugs at
-once. Risk: low-medium (public struct fields).
-
-**R6. Retire the workflow engine's private scheduler (I12)** in favour of a
-`WorkflowDefinition → CompiledGraph` lowering; keep `WorkflowStore` as the status projection
-and the lease as R4's durable lock. Risk: high (host-facing `phase_states` JSON contract);
-do it behind a feature flag with the existing `workflow/tests.rs` as the acceptance suite.
-
-## 4. Test-quality assessment
-
-Strengths: `compiled/test.rs` (100 tests) covers routing, `Send` args across resume, barrier
-arrivals across resume, async-durability ordering/failure/drain, attributed `update_state`
-merges, retry/failure checkpoints, and legacy-checkpoint fallbacks. `testkit/conformance.rs`
-has checkpointer contract suites (writes, lineage, concurrency) run against all three
-backends. `delegation/test.rs` (1.3k lines) exercises schema-version guards and lock
-serialization. Tests are descriptive and mostly assert observable durable state, not
-internals.
-
-Gaps (each maps to a finding):
-- No test that a *higher-index* completed parallel branch is not re-run after an interrupt
-  or failure, nor that its update survives (C1). `parallel_interrupt_pauses_at_lowest_index_branch`
-  asserts the lossy behaviour.
-- No test comparing final state of an interrupted-then-resumed run against the same graph
-  run uninterrupted (C2) — the single most valuable durability property test.
-- No concurrent-same-thread test for the executor (C3); only delegation tests it indirectly.
-- No subgraph failure → parent `retry` test (C4); `subgraph/test.rs` covers interrupt resume
-  only. No `Send` fan-out of a checkpointed subgraph node (I1).
-- No `update_state` (as_node None) followed by `resume(value)` test asserting the value
-  reaches only the interrupted node (I2).
-- No test for step monotonicity across resume or cumulative recursion limits (I3).
-- No node-panic test and no cancellation (dropped future) test asserting status/checkpoint
-  consistency (I4). `orchestration/test.rs:254` is the only `catch_unwind` in the crate.
-- No channel-graph durability test (I5) — impossible today, which is the point.
-- No test exercising a `FileCheckpointer`/`SqliteCheckpointer` behind the *executor* for
-  interrupt → resume across a fresh `Connection`/process nonce (the "restart" path); the
-  durable-backend tests are conformance-only and executor tests use `InMemoryCheckpointer`.
-- No performance guard on `state_history(limit)` or on `list` decode cost (I8/I9).
-- `workflow/tests.rs` (850 lines) is thorough on lease/CAS races but relies on string statuses;
-  a typo in `"completed"` would pass type-check and fail only at runtime.
-
-## 5. Things that are genuinely good
-
-- Deterministic fold order and explicit `goto_map` keyed by index (repeated `Send` of one node
-  keeps its own routing) — a real correctness win over node-keyed maps.
-- `AsyncCheckpointWrites` chaining with first-error propagation and drain-on-every-exit is
-  carefully reasoned and tested (`compiled/types.rs:153-249`).
-- Barrier-relief with `reaches_deterministically` (`routing.rs:68-158`) solves a real
-  deadlock without weakening the barrier, and the comment explains the multi-hop pitfall.
-- Failure boundaries are resumable and `retry`/`update_state` compose with them; the
-  `interrupted_nodes` metadata keeps resume values off nodes that never paused.
-- Checkpoint id minting uses a process nonce; `state_history` has a cycle guard;
-  `copy_thread` refuses to interleave lineages; torn trailing JSONL lines are tolerated.
-- `ThreadLockMap` weak-value map is a neat leak-free per-key mutex.
-- Schema-version fencing and per-thread locking in `delegation/run.rs` show the team knows
-  the executor's gaps; the fixes above mostly move that discipline into the runtime.
-- `map_reduce` gets ordering, fail-fast-in-input-order, cancellation and timeouts right.
-- The session ledger's lease + revision CAS (`run_ledger/ops.rs:169-320`) is a solid pattern
-  the graph checkpointer should borrow.

-# LangGraph / LangChain 1.x vs TinyAgents — runtime comparison
-
-Research date: 2026-09-19. TinyAgents baseline: v2.1.2 (`fc33c43`).
-Paths below are relative to this repository unless prefixed `openhuman:`.
-
-## 1. What LangGraph/LangChain is today
-
-**Runtime layer — LangGraph.** `langgraph` 1.0.0 shipped 2025-10-17; 1.1.0 on 2026-03-10; 1.2.0 on
-2026-05-12; latest core is 1.2.11 (2026-08-11), with `langgraph-checkpoint` 4.2.0 (2026-08-07). The
-runtime is a Pregel/BSP engine: a superstep plans tasks by comparing per-channel version counters
-(`channel_versions` vs each node's `versions_seen`), runs all tasks in parallel, then applies writes
-through channel reducers and writes a checkpoint (`{v:2, id: uuid6, ts, channel_values,
-channel_versions, versions_seen, updated_channels}` + metadata `{source: input|loop|update|fork,
-step, parents}`). Nodes are triggered by channel-version changes, not by edges as such (edges compile
-to `branch:to:<node>` channels). Control values are first-class: `Command(update, goto, resume,
-graph=PARENT)`, `Send(node, arg, timeout)`, `Overwrite(value)` (bypass reducer), `interrupt(value,
-response_schema)` which raises `GraphInterrupt` and re-runs the node from the top on resume, with
-resume values matched by call index (scalar `Command(resume=)`) or by interrupt id (dict form).
-1.x adds durability modes `sync|async|exit` (default `async`), per-node `RetryPolicy`,
-`CachePolicy(key_func, ttl)` + `BaseCache`, `defer=True` join nodes, per-node `TimeoutPolicy`
-and `error_handler` (1.2), `DeltaChannel` writes-only checkpoint history (1.2, beta), `RunControl`
-graceful drain, `stream(version="v2")` unified `StreamPart{type, ns, data}` and
-`stream_events(version="v3")` protocol events, `BaseStore` with namespaces/TTL/semantic `IndexConfig`,
-and the functional API (`@entrypoint`/`@task`). Double-texting strategies, thread TTL, cron and
-background runs are **Agent Server / LangSmith Deployment features, not OSS library features**.
-
-**Agent layer — LangChain.** `langchain` 1.0.0 (2025-10-17), 1.3.0 (2026-05-12), 1.4.2 (2026-09-18);
-`langchain-core` 1.6.3 (2026-09-11). The whole agent layer is `create_agent(model, tools,
-system_prompt, middleware, response_format, context_schema, checkpointer, store, ...)`, which
-compiles to a small LangGraph `StateGraph` (`model` node, `tools` node, one node per middleware
-hook). `AgentMiddleware` is the extension point: node hooks `before_agent/before_model/after_model/
-after_agent` (return state dicts, may `jump_to`), and wrap hooks `wrap_model_call(request, handler)`
-/ `wrap_tool_call(request, handler)` (nest, first middleware outermost). A middleware can extend the
-state schema, contribute tools, own stream transformers and trace policy. Built-ins cover
-summarization, HITL (durable `interrupt()` with approve/edit/reject/respond), call limits, model
-retry/fallback, PII, tool retry/error, LLM tool selection, provider tool search, context editing,
-todo list, shell, file search. `ToolRuntime` injects state/context/store/stream_writer/tool_call_id;
-`response_format` chooses `ToolStrategy|ProviderStrategy|AutoStrategy`. 1.4.0 added `langchain.mcp`
-`MCPAdapter`. Deep Agents (`deepagents` 0.7.15, 2026-09-16) is a harness on top of `create_agent`,
-explicitly "does not introduce a new runtime": filesystem tools over pluggable backends, subagents via
-a `task` tool, summarization-with-offload, AGENTS.md memory, SKILL.md skills, path permissions,
-sandbox backends. `langgraph-supervisor`/`langgraph-swarm` are in maintenance mode; the docs now
-recommend `create_agent` + tool-wrapped subagents or middleware-driven handoffs.

-## 2. Feature inventory
-
-Legend: Yes / Partial / No. File paths are what I checked.
-
-| Feature | LangGraph/LangChain | TinyAgents | Notes |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| Pregel supersteps, parallel tasks, reducer at boundary | Yes | Yes — `crates/tinyagents-graph/src/compiled/executor.rs` | Same BSP shape. |
-| Channel-version triggering (`versions_seen`) | Yes | No — `channel/mod.rs` is a reducer bridge; scheduling is edge/active-set based | See §4. |
-| Typed channels (LastValue/Topic/BinaryOp/Ephemeral/NamedBarrier/Untracked) | Yes | Yes — `graph/src/channel/types.rs` | `Delta` in TinyAgents is a numeric accumulator, unrelated to LangGraph's `DeltaChannel`. |
-| `DeltaChannel` writes-only checkpoint history, `snapshot_frequency` | Yes (1.2, beta) | No — `checkpoint/types.rs` stores full `state: State` per checkpoint | Deepagents uses it for `messages` (O(N) vs O(N²)). |
-| `Overwrite` (bypass reducer) | Yes | No | Reducer runs on every write. |
-| `Command(update, goto, resume)` | Yes | Yes — `graph/src/command/types.rs` | |

-| `Send` fanout, persisted send args | Yes | Yes — `checkpoint/types.rs::PendingActivation` | `Send.timeout` (1.2) absent. |
-| `interrupt()` inside a node, index/id-matched resume | Yes | Yes — node returns `NodeResult::Interrupt`; `docs/modules/graph/interrupts.md`, `compiled/executor.rs::resume` | TinyAgents interrupt is a return value, not a call; node still re-runs from start. `response_schema` absent. |
-| `interrupt_before/after` compile options | Yes | No — documented in `interrupts.md`, no code hit for `interrupt_before` | Docs promise it; not implemented. |
-| Durability `sync/async/exit` | Yes (default async) | Yes — `checkpoint/types.rs::DurabilityMode` (default Sync) | TinyAgents async mode has stricter failure semantics (fails run at next boundary). |
-| Pending writes / skip completed tasks on resume | Yes | Yes — `checkpoint/types.rs::PendingWrite`, `merge_writes` | |
-| Checkpoint namespaces for subgraphs | Yes (`ns|ns`, `node:task_id`) | Yes — `CheckpointConfig.namespace: Vec<String>` | |

-| Checkpointer `prune`, `copy_thread`, `delete_for_runs` | Yes (checkpoint 4.1) | Yes — `checkpoint/mod.rs` (`prune`, `copy_thread`, `delete_by_run`) | |
-| Checkpoint backends | Memory, SQLite, Postgres, Redis, Mongo… | Memory, File, SQLite — `checkpoint/{file,sqlite}.rs` | `docs/sdk-gaps/durability.md` §5: rusqlite version coupling. |
-| Per-node `RetryPolicy` (list, `retry_on`) | Yes | Partial — graph-wide `with_node_retry` in `compiled/mod.rs`; no per-node | |
-| Per-node `CachePolicy` + `BaseCache` (task-level cache) | Yes | No in graph; harness has `ResponseCache`/`CachePolicy` for model calls (`harness/src/cache/`) | |
-| `defer=True` | Yes | Partial — `builder/mod.rs::mark_deferred` is export-only; real join is `add_waiting_edge` + `add_barrier_relief` | Waiting edges ≈ `NamedBarrierValue`; "run when nothing else is left" semantics absent. |
-| Per-node `TimeoutPolicy(run, idle)`, `error_handler`/`NodeError` | Yes (1.2) | Partial — graph-wide `with_node_timeout`; no idle timeout, no node error handler | |
-| `RunControl` graceful drain (`GraphDrained`) | Yes (1.2) | Partial — `CancellationToken` (hard cancel) in `harness/src/cancel/` | |
-| `Runtime` (context, store, stream_writer, previous, execution_info) | Yes | Yes — `builder/types.rs::NodeContext`, harness `RunContext` | |
-| Stream modes | values/updates/messages/custom/checkpoints/tasks/debug, `StreamPart{type,ns,data}` | Partial — `stream/types.rs::StreamMode` {Values, Updates, Messages, Debug, Interrupts, Custom}; typed `GraphEvent` enum instead of `StreamPart` | No `tasks`/`checkpoints` modes; comment says "StreamPart projection is future work". |
-| `stream_events(version="v3")` protocol events | Yes (1.2) | No | Observability journal exists instead (`observability/`). |
-| `BaseStore` namespaces, batch, TTL, `list_namespaces` | Yes | Yes — `harness/src/store/namespaced/` | Deliberately modelled on LangGraph's batch design. |
-| Store semantic search (`IndexConfig{embed,dims,fields}`) | Yes | Partial — `SearchQuery.query` is a substring seam; embeddings exist in `retriever/` but are not wired to the store | |
-| Functional API (`@entrypoint`/`@task`, `previous`) | Yes | No | |
-| Double texting / multitask strategies | Platform only | Partial — `run_queue/` lanes (steer/follow-up), `thread_locks.rs` | Neither library has it in OSS; TinyAgents' queue is closer than LangGraph OSS. |
-| Thread TTL, cron, background runs | Platform only | Partial — store TTL yes; `orchestration/` detached tasks + `JsonlTaskStore`; no cron | OpenHuman has `cron/`. |
-| `create_agent` factory | Yes | Yes — `harness/src/runtime/mod.rs::AgentHarness` | |
-| Middleware node hooks returning state updates / `jump_to` | Yes | No — `middleware/types.rs` hooks return `Result<()>`; `MiddlewareModelOutcome` has one variant | `sdk-gaps/orchestration.md` §13 already lists it. |
-| Middleware `wrap_model_call`/`wrap_tool_call` nesting | Yes | Yes — `ModelMiddleware::wrap_model`, `ToolMiddleware::wrap_tool` | Same onion order. |
-| Middleware extends state schema / contributes tools / stream transformers | Yes | No | Tools are registered on the harness, not by middleware. |
-| Dynamic prompt | Yes | Yes — `DynamicPromptMiddleware` | |
-| HITL middleware (durable `interrupt`, approve/edit/reject/respond, `when`) | Yes | Partial — `HumanApprovalMiddleware` is `Fn(&ToolCall) -> bool` (`library/types.rs:375`); durable pause only via graph `Interrupt` or `SteeringCommand::Pause` | |

-| LLM tool selector / provider tool search | Yes | Yes/No — `DynamicToolSelectionMiddleware`, `ContextualToolSelectionMiddleware` (`tool/select/`); no provider-side tool search | |
-| Todo list middleware | Yes (opt-in) | Yes — `graph/src/todos/` (`TodoList`, same shape) | |
-| Shell / file-search middleware | Yes | No in harness (`tools/` has `time.rs` only); `workspace/` gives roots | OpenHuman owns tools. |
-| `ToolRuntime` injection (state, store, stream_writer, tool_call_id) | Yes | Partial — `ToolExecutionContext` (run/thread/depth/events/cancel/workspace); no state/store/tool_call_id | `tool/injected.rs` exists for hidden args. |
-| Tool returns `Command` (state update + routing) | Yes | No — `ToolResult{content,is_error}` (vendor `tinytools`) | |
-| `return_direct`, `ToolMessage.artifact` | Yes | No / Partial — no early-exit flag; `artifacts/` + `handoff.rs` offload large results instead | `sdk-gaps/orchestration.md` §13 "early-exit tools". |
-| `ToolNode.handle_tool_errors` matrix | Yes | Partial — tool errors are recoverable results; unknown tool aborts (`sdk-gaps/tools.md` §2) | |
-| Structured output strategies | Tool/Provider/Auto, unions, `handle_errors` | Yes — `structured/types.rs::StructuredStrategy`, `StructuredOutcome`, `repair.rs` | No union-to-many-tools; no auto-select from profile. |
-| Standard content blocks | Yes | Yes — vendor `tinyinference/src/message/types.rs::ContentBlock` (Text/Json/Image/Thinking/Redacted…) | No citations/server_tool_call blocks. |
-| `init_chat_model`, model profiles | Yes | Yes — `model_registry/`, `ModelProfile` | |
-| Prompt caching middleware | Yes (Anthropic/Bedrock) | Yes — `PromptCacheGuardMiddleware`, `cache/layout.rs` | |
-| MCP adapter | Yes (1.4) | Partial — only inside `providers/claude_code/` | |
-| Supervisor / swarm / handoffs | Legacy libs; docs pattern | Yes — `subagent_node/`, `delegation/`, `orchestration/`, `parallel::map_reduce`, `SteeringRegistry` | TinyAgents is richer here. |
-| Deep Agents: FS backends, subagent `task` tool, memory/skills files, permissions, sandboxes | Yes (harness) | No in TinyAgents; OpenHuman has `skills/`, `memory/`, `sandbox/`, `security/approval` | Correct layering already. |
-| Dangling tool-call patch | Yes (deepagents) | Partial — `summarization/trim.rs` orphan handling | |
-| Test fakes / trajectory eval | `GenericFakeChatModel`, `agentevals` | Yes — `testkit/` (trajectory assertions), `graph/testkit/` | |
-| Tracing hooks (`trace_policy`, LangSmith) | Yes | Yes — Langfuse exporter, `TracingMiddleware`, `RedactingSink` | No per-node trace policy. |
-
-## 3. Features TinyAgents lacks, ranked by value
-
-### 3.1 Middleware control outcomes (`jump_to`, state updates, `Command` from tools)
-What: LangChain node hooks return a state dict and may set `jump_to: "model"|"tools"|"end"` (declared
-via `@hook_config(can_jump_to=[...])`); `wrap_model_call` may return `ExtendedModelResponse(model_response,
-command)`; `wrap_tool_call` and tools may return `Command(update=..., goto=...)`.
-```python
-class ModelCallLimitMiddleware(AgentMiddleware):
-    @hook_config(can_jump_to=["end"])
-    def before_model(self, state, runtime):
-        if state["model_call_count"] >= self.limit:
-            return {"jump_to": "end", "messages": [AIMessage("limit reached")]}
-```
-Why: this is what makes limits, HITL, budget stops, early-exit tools and fallback re-routing
-composable without side channels. `docs/sdk-gaps/orchestration.md` §13 already asks for it.
-Mapping: add a `MiddlewareControl` enum returned from `before_model`/`after_model`/`before_tool`/
-`after_tool` (`Continue | JumpTo(LoopTarget) | StopWith(AgentRun) | Interrupt(Interrupt)`), let
-`MiddlewareModelOutcome`/`MiddlewareToolOutcome` (already `#[non_exhaustive]`) gain `Command`
-variants carrying `graph::Command<Update>`-style updates, and let `ToolResult` carry an optional
-`ToolCommand { state_update: Value, goto: Option<LoopTarget>, return_direct: bool }` so
-`agent_loop/tools.rs` can honour it. Precedence rule: first control outcome wins in hook order
-(LangChain accumulates commands inner-first; keep it simple and documented).
-
-### 3.2 Durable human-in-the-loop in the harness (`HumanInTheLoopMiddleware`)
-What: `after_model` issues one `interrupt(HITLRequest{action_requests, review_configs})` for the
-whole tool-call batch; resume with `Command(resume={"decisions":[{"type":"approve"} |
-{"type":"edit","edited_action":{name,args}} | {"type":"reject","message"} |
-{"type":"respond","message"}]})`; `InterruptOnConfig{allowed_decisions, description, args_schema,
-when}`; requires checkpointer + thread_id.
-Why: TinyAgents' `HumanApprovalMiddleware` is an in-process `Fn(&ToolCall) -> bool`; a desktop
-assistant needs approval to survive process restart and to edit args. Requires 3.1.
-Mapping: `HumanApprovalMiddleware` returns `MiddlewareControl::Interrupt(Interrupt{payload:
-HitlRequest})`; the agent loop persists a `harness` checkpoint (via `tinyagents-session` run ledger
-or a graph `Checkpointer` when the loop runs as a graph node) and `AgentHarness::resume(thread,
-HitlResponse)` applies decisions in `before_tool`. OpenHuman's `security/approval` becomes the UI.
-
-### 3.3 Task-level cache and per-node retry/timeout/error handler
-What: `add_node(name, fn, retry_policy=RetryPolicy(max_attempts, backoff_factor, retry_on),
-cache_policy=CachePolicy(key_func, ttl), timeout=TimeoutPolicy(run_timeout, idle_timeout),
-error_handler=fn(state, NodeError) -> Command|None, defer=True)`; `set_node_defaults(...)`.
-Cache key = `(namespace, xxh3(key_func(input)))`, backends `InMemoryCache`, `SqliteCache`; cached
-tasks stream with `cached=True`. `error_handler` runs after retries are exhausted and is durable.
-Why: deterministic replays, cheap re-runs of expensive nodes during development, per-node
-resilience without wrapping every handler.
-Mapping: `GraphBuilder::with_node_policy(node, NodePolicy{retry: Option<RetryPolicy>, timeout,
-idle_timeout, cache: Option<NodeCachePolicy>, on_error: Option<ErrorHandler<State,Update>>})`;
-reuse `tinyagents_harness::retry::RetryPolicy` and `harness/src/cache` traits (`ResponseCache`
-already keys by hash; add a `TaskCache` trait keyed by `(graph_id, node_id, hash(send_arg|state
-projection))`). Emit `TaskCompleted{cached: true}` in `GraphEvent`.
-
-### 3.4 `DeltaChannel` / writes-only checkpoint history and `Overwrite`
-What: `Annotated[list, DeltaChannel(reducer, snapshot_frequency=50)]` stores only per-step writes;
-`BaseCheckpointSaver.get_delta_channel_history` replays them; `Overwrite(value)` resets the
-baseline. LangGraph shipped it in 1.2 and spent 1.2.5–1.2.11 fixing `update_state`/round-trip bugs.
-Why: TinyAgents writes the full `state: State` every superstep; for message-heavy long threads
-checkpoint volume is O(N²). Deepagents adopted it precisely for `messages`.
-Mapping: add `Checkpoint.channel_deltas: Option<BTreeMap<String, Vec<ChannelUpdate>>>` with
-`Checkpointer::delta_history(config, channel)`; make `Messages`/`Topic` channels opt into delta
-persistence via `ChannelSet::with_delta(name, snapshot_every)`; add `ChannelUpdate::overwrite(v)`.
-Learn from LangGraph's bugs: keep `update` and `replay` on one code path.
-
-### 3.5 Unified stream parts + `tasks`/`checkpoints` modes, `stream_events v3`
-What: `stream(version="v2")` yields `StreamPart{type, ns: tuple, data}` for
-`values|updates|messages|custom|checkpoints|tasks|debug`; `subgraphs=True` fills `ns` with
-`("node:task_id", ...)`; `stream_events(version="v3")` gives `ProtocolEvent{seq, method, params}`
-with projections (`stream.messages`, `stream.tool_calls`, `stream.subagents`).
-Why: UIs need one cursor over nested runs. `sdk-gaps/streaming.md` §3/§6 ask for the same (reasoning/tool-arg
-deltas, late-attach replay).
-Mapping: TinyAgents already has `GraphEvent` + `GraphObservation` journal; add `ns: Vec<String>`
-and `seq` to the envelope, add `TaskStarted/TaskResult` and `CheckpointSaved` projections as
-`StreamMode::Tasks|Checkpoints`, and a `StreamProjection` adapter that folds `GraphEvent` +
-harness `AgentEvent` into `stream.messages`/`stream.tool_calls` views.
-
-### 3.6 `ToolRuntime` parity and `return_direct`
-What: `ToolRuntime{state, context, config, stream_writer, tool_call_id, store, tools,
-execution_info}` injected into tools by parameter type; `@tool(return_direct=True)` exits the loop
-when all executed tools are return_direct; `response_format="content_and_artifact"` puts a
-non-model payload in `ToolMessage.artifact`.
-Mapping: extend `ToolExecutionContext` with `call_id`, `store: Option<Arc<dyn NamespacedStore>>`,
-`state_view: Option<Arc<dyn Any>>` (or a typed `StateHandle<State>`), and `stream: EventSink`
-custom-write helper; add `ToolSchema.return_direct: bool` and `ToolResult.artifact: Option<Value>`
-(vendor `tinytools` change). Pair with 3.1 for the loop exit.
-
-### 3.7 Semantic search on the namespaced store
-What: `InMemoryStore(index={"embed": embeddings, "dims": 1536, "fields": ["text", "$"]})`;
-`store.search(ns, query="...")` ranks by cosine; `put(..., index=False)` opts out.
-Mapping: `NamespacedStore::search` already has `query`; add `IndexConfig{embedder: Arc<dyn
-Embeddings>, dims, fields}` to `InMemoryNamespacedStore` using `tinyinference-embeddings`, and a
-`VectorNamespacedStore` adapter over the existing `retriever/` vector store trait.
-
-### 3.8 `interrupt_before/after`, `response_schema`, graceful drain
-Small items: compile-time `interrupt_before/after` selectors are documented in
-`docs/modules/graph/interrupts.md` but absent from code; `interrupt(value, response_schema=)`
-validates the resume payload; `RunControl.request_drain(reason)` lets a node finish the current
-superstep and stop cleanly (`GraphDrained`). Mapping: `GraphBuilder::interrupt_before(nodes)`,
-`Interrupt.response_schema: Option<Value>` validated in `resume`, and a `Drain` variant on
-`SteeringCommand` that the executor honours at the boundary.
-
-### 3.9 Functional API
-`@entrypoint(checkpointer)` + `@task` turn ordinary code into a one-node Pregel where each task
-result is a `RETURN` pending write, so resume replays completed tasks without re-running them.
-Value for TinyAgents is moderate (Rust closures are already ergonomic), but a `durable_task(ctx,
-key, async fn)` helper inside a node handler — memoising by `PendingWrite` — would give the same
-"side effects before an interrupt are not repeated" guarantee the interrupts doc currently pushes
-onto users ("must be guarded by idempotency keys").
-
-### 3.10 MCP adapter, provider tool search, node `trace_policy`
-`langchain.mcp.MCPAdapter` (1.4) lists/executes MCP tools as `BaseTool`s; `ProviderToolSearchMiddleware`
-defers large tool catalogs to provider-side search; `add_node(trace_policy=TracePolicy(process_inputs,
-process_outputs))` redacts per node. TinyAgents has MCP only inside the Claude Code provider and
-redaction only at the sink; both are modest additions on existing traits.
-
-## 4. Design lessons
-
-**Channel semantics.** LangGraph schedules nodes from channel versions; edges are sugar over
-`branch:to:*` channels. This gives uniform semantics for `Send`, deferred joins
-(`NamedBarrierValueAfterFinish`) and subscriptions, but it makes "why did this node run?" hard to
-explain and is the source of a long tail of `update_state`/`versions_seen` bugs. TinyAgents'
-explicit active-set + waiting-edge model is easier to export (`export/`) and debug, at the cost of
-special mechanisms (`add_barrier_relief`) where LangGraph gets them for free. Keep the explicit
-model; borrow `defer` as a scheduling flag rather than a channel type.
-
-**Checkpoint format.** LangGraph's checkpoint is channel-level (`channel_values` + versions), so a
-saver can be schema-agnostic and delta history is natural. TinyAgents persists a typed `State`
-blob plus `pending_activations`/`barrier_arrivals`, which is simpler and type-safe but
-all-or-nothing. TinyAgents is better on failure semantics: async durability surfaces write errors
-at the next boundary and always syncs terminal/interrupt checkpoints; LangGraph's default `async`
-mode can lose the last step on crash and the docs say so.
-
-**Interrupt resume.** Both re-run the node from the top. LangGraph's `interrupt()` is a call that
-can appear anywhere (index-matched), which is ergonomic but fragile (docs list "don't wrap in
-try/except", "don't reorder interrupts"). TinyAgents' `NodeResult::Interrupt` forces one interrupt
-per node return, which is explicit and serialisable but makes multi-step approvals inside one node
-awkward. A `ctx.interrupt(payload)` helper that reads `ctx.resume` by index would get both.
-
-**Streaming.** LangGraph went through three formats (tuples, `StreamPart` v2, protocol events
-v3) because the first had no namespace or sequence. TinyAgents should add `ns`/`seq` to
-`GraphEvent` now rather than later. Typed enums beat `dict` payloads; keep them.
-
-**Middleware composition.** LangChain's split of node hooks (return state, may jump) vs wrap hooks
-(onion) is the same as TinyAgents', but LangChain lets middleware own state keys, tools and stream
-transformers, which is what made summarization/todo/HITL/PII shippable as single classes. TinyAgents'
-hooks that only return `Result<()>` push that logic into the loop or host adapters (`sdk-gaps/orchestration.md`
-§13). LangChain's weakness: `state_schema` merging across middleware is untyped `TypedDict`
-unioning; TinyAgents can do better with a typed `MiddlewareState` extension slot on `RunContext`.
-
-**Agent loop as a graph.** `create_agent` compiles the loop into a `StateGraph`, so every graph
-feature (checkpoints, interrupts, streaming, time travel) applies to the agent loop with zero extra
-code. TinyAgents runs the loop in `agent_loop/run_loop.rs` and separately offers `subagent_node`;
-the harness README even describes the loop "as an explicit state machine when callers need
-inspection, checkpointing, HITL". Finishing that (loop-as-`CompiledGraph`) would close 3.1/3.2 in
-one move.
-
-**Where TinyAgents is ahead.** Steering commands with policy checks, detached task registry with
-durable stores, parallel failure policies (`quorum`/`race`/`compare`), goal/task-board primitives,
-budget middleware, prompt-cache layout guards, artifact offload, tool timeouts with grace, and a
-first-class registry. LangGraph OSS has none of these; LangGraph *Platform* has
-some (background runs, cron, multitask) as hosted services.
-
-## 5. Runtime-level vs harness-level split
-
-Calibration: `openhuman:crates/openhuman-core/src` (the OpenHuman desktop host) already owns `skills/`, `memory/`, `sandbox/`,
-`cron/`, `hooks/`, `security/{approval,audit,bubblewrap}`, `agent/tools`, `agent/tool_policy.rs`,
-`agent/orchestration/{worktree,spawn_parallel_graph,running_subagents}` and `agent/harness/{memory_context,
-artifact_offload,tool_result_artifacts}`. Those are the OpenHuman analogues of Deep Agents.
-
-| Gap | Layer | Reason |
-|---|---|---|
-| 3.1 middleware control outcomes / tool `Command` | **Runtime (harness crate)** | Loop control vocabulary; hosts cannot add it from outside. |
-| 3.2 durable HITL request/decision protocol | **Runtime** for the interrupt/resume/decision types; **OpenHuman** for the approval UI and `security/approval` policy | Mirrors LangChain: middleware in library, policy in app. |
-| 3.3 per-node retry/cache/timeout/error handler | **Runtime (graph crate)** | Pure scheduler policy. |
-| 3.4 delta checkpoint history / `Overwrite` | **Runtime (graph crate)** | Checkpoint format. |
-| 3.5 unified stream parts, tasks/checkpoints modes | **Runtime** | Contract UIs depend on; OpenHuman keeps only format adapters (`sdk-gaps/streaming.md` §6). |
-| 3.6 `ToolRuntime` parity, `return_direct`, artifact | **Runtime** (`ToolExecutionContext`, vendor `tinytools`) | Tool contract. |
-| 3.7 semantic store search | **Runtime** (trait + in-memory impl); backend choice in OpenHuman `memory/` | |
-| 3.8 `interrupt_before/after`, `response_schema`, drain | **Runtime** | |
-| 3.9 durable task memoisation | **Runtime** | Idempotency guard belongs beside `PendingWrite`. |
-| 3.10 MCP adapter | **Runtime** (generic `McpToolSource` in harness) — OpenHuman already has `mcp/` | Move generic bits down only if OpenHuman's is reusable. |
-| Provider tool search, node trace policy | Runtime, low priority | |
-| Deep Agents FS tools, backends, sandboxes, permissions | **OpenHuman** (`sandbox/`, `agent/tools`, `tool_policy.rs`) | LangChain also keeps these out of the runtime; only `WorkspaceIsolation` roots stay in TinyAgents. |
-| AGENTS.md memory, SKILL.md skills, harness profiles | **OpenHuman** (`memory/`, `skills/`) | Prompt conventions over a file backend. |
-| Summarization-with-offload thresholds, large-result eviction | Mechanism in runtime (`artifacts/`, `handoff.rs` exist); thresholds/prompts in OpenHuman | Already split this way. |
-| Subagent `task` tool, fork mode | TinyAgents has async `DriverSubAgentTool` and graph `subagent_node`; prompts and delegation policy stay in OpenHuman | Already split. |
-| Double texting, cron, thread TTL, background runs | Runtime has `run_queue`, `DetachedTaskRegistry`, store TTL; scheduler/cron and UI in OpenHuman (`cron/`) | LangGraph puts these in the paid server. |
-| Rubric grader, LLM tool emulator | OpenHuman / test tooling | |

Subject: [PATCH 0997/1076] docs(spec): drop graph runtime from the system
 overview

The specification no longer presents TinyAgents as a durable typed
state-graph runtime, so the overview, reference positioning, and crate
listing now describe the harness, session, and registry layers only.
The graph package and its orchestration references were removed from
the documented architecture.

 # TinyAgents System Specification
 
-TinyAgents is a small, provider-neutral agent harness for Rust, plus a durable
-typed state-graph runtime. It takes its shape from LangChain (models, tools,
-middleware, structured output, streaming, usage/cost) and LangGraph
-(`START`/`END`, nodes, conditional edges, channels/reducers, checkpoints,
-interrupts, subgraphs, time travel) — rebuilt as ordinary, typed Rust. The

+TinyAgents is a small, provider-neutral agent harness for Rust. It takes its
+shape from LangChain (models, tools, middleware, structured output, streaming,

-5. durable sessions
-6. host-neutral session runtime
-7. host-neutral orchestration
+3. the registry
+4. durable sessions
+5. host-neutral session runtime
+6. host-neutral orchestration
 
 The goal is to make agent systems easy to define, inspect, run, test, and
 serialize without hiding the Rust types that make production systems reliable.
 
 ## Reference Positioning
 
-TinyAgents synthesizes the reference systems rather than cloning either one:
-
-- LangGraph contributes the durable execution model: explicit state graphs,
-  virtual `START` and `END`, Pregel-style supersteps, reducers/channels,
-  commands, `Send` fanout, checkpointing, interrupts, subgraphs, streaming, and
-  time travel.
-- LangChain contributes the harness model: provider-neutral models, tools,
-  middleware, runtime context, memory, retrieval, structured output, tracing,
-  usage, cost, and conformance tests for integrations.
+TinyAgents builds on the harness model: provider-neutral models, tools,
+middleware, runtime context, memory, retrieval, structured output, tracing,
+usage, cost, and conformance tests for integrations.
 
 The target architecture is layered: the harness owns model/tool execution and
-policies, the graph owns deterministic state transition and durability, the
-registry owns named capabilities. No layer should bypass another layer's safety, policy,
+policies, the session crate owns durable conversation state, and the registry
+owns named capabilities. No layer should bypass another layer's safety, policy,
 observability, or test contracts.

 modules

Update harness and session docs and doc comments to stop pointing at the
graph checkpoint and stream frame modules, which no longer exist. The
Drained status doc is also shortened to describe the behaviour without
naming the removed drain signal type.

-reduces to a consistent result.
-
-**Mid-tool progress (C2).** A running tool reports through
-`tinytools::ToolRunContext::report_progress(ToolProgress { message, fraction,
-partial })` (a default no-op, so existing tools are unchanged). The loop gives
-every executing call a progress gate (`crates/tinyagents-harness/src/tool/progress/mod.rs`)
-that emits `AgentEvent::ToolProgressDetail { call_id, message, fraction, partial }`
-live and queues a `ToolDelta` for `Middleware::on_tool_delta`. Guarantees:
-
-- Every `ToolProgressDetail` for a call falls between its `ToolStarted` and its
-  terminal `ToolCompleted`/`ToolFailed`, in the order the tool reported it.
-- The gate closes when the tool's future settles (return, error, timeout),
-  before the terminal event. An update reported afterwards (for example from a
-  task the tool spawned) is dropped, never emitted late; the open check and the
-  emit share one lock, so there is no race window.
-- A concurrent batch interleaves progress across calls; each call's progress
-  still precedes its own terminal event (terminals are emitted by the fold,
-  in call order, after the batch).
-- `on_tool_delta` needs `&mut RunContext`, which the executing tool holds, so
-  middleware sees a call's deltas replayed in order immediately after the call
-  settles and before `after_tool` and the terminal event. It observes; the live
-  event is already out. A failing hook is logged and does not fail the call.
-- The gate also closes if the dispatch future is dropped (run cancelled or
-  timed out mid-call), so a task the tool spawned cannot emit afterwards.
-- Flooding is coalesced: at most 32 events per second per call (fixed,
-  crate-private `ToolProgressLimits`); beyond that the newest value of each
-  field replaces the held update. There is no timer: the held update is emitted
-  on the first update of the next window or when the call settles (that final
-  flush is exempt from the window limit), so the final reported state is never
-  lost.
-- The middleware replay queue is bounded (newest 64 deltas, each `content`
-  capped at 4 KiB, partials serialized only up to the cap) and is not filled at
-  all when the run has no middleware.
-- An event listener must not call `report_progress` re-entrantly (events are
-  emitted under the call's gate lock).
-
-The typed
-`HarnessStreamItem` enum, `StreamMode::{tools, usage, cost, events, final}`,
-and stream replay from event stores are still design-only.

Subject: [PATCH 1000/1076] chore(deps): prune unused crates and dedupe rustix
 in lockfile

Removed the atomicwrites, clack-private-fs, tinyagents-graph, and rustix 0.38 entries along with their now-orphaned linux-raw-sys 0.4.15 dependency, and collapsed the remaining rustix references onto the single 1.1.4 version. The vendor/tinyinference submodule pointer was also bumped.

Subject: [PATCH 1001/1076] chore: remove graph runtime and consolidate harness
 docs

Delete the graph spec and its runtime comparison docs, drop the
subconscious loop example test, and move the remaining agent loop
lifecycle logic into a new phases module. Documentation and crate
metadata were updated to reflect the harness-only scope, and the
vendored tinyinference revision was bumped.

-# Graph Module Specification
-
-The graph is the workflow runtime. It executes stateful nodes, applies state
-updates, follows direct or conditional edges, records execution history, handles
-interrupts, and returns a final state.
-
-The first implementation can stay sequential, but the module should be designed
-toward LangGraph's durable execution model: compiled graphs, virtual `START` and
-`END` nodes, supersteps, reducer-driven state updates, checkpoints, interrupts,
-commands, streaming, and subgraphs.
-
-### Source Inspiration
-
-The graph design is informed by LangGraph's docs on the graph API, reducers,
-commands, persistence, checkpointers, interrupts, streaming, subgraphs, and fault
-tolerance:
-
-- <https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/langgraph/graph-api>
-- <https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/langgraph/persistence>
-- <https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/langgraph/checkpointers>
-- <https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/langgraph/interrupts>
-- <https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/langgraph/streaming>
-- <https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/langgraph/event-streaming>
-- <https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/langgraph/use-subgraphs>
-- <https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/langgraph/fault-tolerance>
-
-### Responsibilities
-
-- Store named nodes.
-- Store direct and conditional edges.
-- Validate graph structure at compile time.
-- Produce an immutable executable graph.
-- Run async node handlers.
-- Route based on node output or command output.
-- Apply partial state updates through reducers.
-- Enforce recursion limits.
-- Persist checkpoints at safe boundaries.
-- Support interrupts and resume.
-- Stream typed execution events.
-- Write readable execution status records for graph runs.
-- Maintain append-only graph event journals for external listeners.
-- Cache derived graph observability projections without making them the source
-  of truth.
-- Return final state and execution history.
-- Support graph visualization and serialization later.
-
-### Core Concepts
-
-`State` is user-owned application state. TinyAgents should never require a
-specific state shape for hand-written Rust graphs.
-
-`Node<State>` is an async unit of work.
-
-`NodeOutput<State>` controls execution in the current scaffold:
-
-- `Continue(State)` follows a direct edge.
-- `Route { state, route }` follows a conditional edge.
-- `End(State)` stops execution.
-
-The target design should evolve this into partial updates and commands:
-
-```rust
-pub enum NodeResult<Update> {
-    Update(Update),
-    Command(Command<Update>),
-    Interrupt(Interrupt),
-}
-
-pub struct Command<Update> {
-    pub update: Option<Update>,
-    pub goto: Vec<NodeId>,
-    pub resume: Option<serde_json::Value>,
-}
-```
-
-`GraphBuilder<State, Update>` should own graph construction. `CompiledGraph`
-should own execution. This separates user-friendly mutation during setup from a
-validated immutable runtime.
-
-```rust
-let graph = GraphBuilder::new()
-    .add_node("agent", agent_node)
-    .add_node("tools", tools_node)
-    .add_edge(START, "agent")
-    .add_conditional_edges("agent", route_agent)
-    .add_edge("tools", "agent")
-    .compile()?;
-```
-
-### State Updates And Reducers
-
-LangGraph nodes return partial state updates. TinyAgents should adopt the same
-direction because it enables parallel execution, replay, checkpointing, and
-clearer node contracts.
-
-The default reducer should be overwrite. Users should be able to opt into
-reducers for fields that accumulate values:
-
-- append list
-- merge messages by id
-- set union
-- numeric min/max
-- custom reducer
-
-Possible Rust shape:
-
-```rust
-pub trait Reducer<T>: Send + Sync {
-    fn reduce(&self, current: T, update: T) -> Result<T>;
-}
-
-pub trait StateReducer<State, Update>: Send + Sync {
-    fn apply(&self, state: State, update: Update) -> Result<State>;
-}
-```
-
-For milestone 1, whole-state updates are acceptable. For durable parallel graph
-execution, partial updates and reducers should be introduced before
-checkpoint/resume semantics harden.
-
-### Graph Lifecycle
-
-1. Define state.
-2. Define update type if partial updates are enabled.
-3. Create graph builder.
-4. Add nodes.
-5. Add direct or conditional edges.
-6. Add `START` edge.
-7. Compile and validate the graph.
-8. Run graph with initial state and runtime config.
-9. Inspect final state, checkpoints, events, and visited nodes.
-
-### Routing Semantics
-
-Direct routing:
-
-```text
-START -> agent -> summarize -> END
-```
-
-Conditional routing:
-
-```text
-START -> agent
-agent --tool--> tools
-agent --final--> END
-tools ---------> agent
-```
-
-Conditional routes may start as explicit strings. Later versions should support
-typed route enums or route newtypes so Rust users can avoid typo-prone strings.
-
-Nodes should not mix static outgoing edges and dynamic command-based routing in
-the same execution mode unless the behavior is deliberately specified. A strict
-compile-time validation rule is preferable: a node has either normal outgoing
-edges or command routing, not both.
-
-### Supersteps
-
-The target executor should be superstep-based:
-
-1. Take the current active node set.
-2. Run all active nodes for the step, respecting concurrency policy.
-3. Collect partial state updates, commands, interrupts, and errors.
-4. Apply reducers at the step boundary.
-5. Persist a checkpoint.
-6. Select the next active nodes.
-7. Stop when the active set is empty or reaches `END`.
-
-The first implementation can run one node at a time, but checkpointing and
-parallel execution should use superstep boundaries as the durable unit. Do not
-checkpoint mid-node.
-
-### Checkpointing And Persistence
-
-Graph checkpointing is not the same as harness memory. Checkpoints are
-thread-scoped graph execution snapshots used for resume, interrupts, and fault
-tolerance.
-
-```rust
-#[async_trait]
-pub trait Checkpointer<State>: Send + Sync {
-    async fn put(&self, checkpoint: Checkpoint<State>) -> Result<CheckpointId>;
-    async fn get(&self, thread_id: &str, checkpoint_id: Option<&str>) -> Result<Option<Checkpoint<State>>>;
-    async fn list(&self, thread_id: &str) -> Result<Vec<CheckpointMetadata>>;
-}
-```
-
-A checkpoint should contain:
-
-- thread id
-- checkpoint id
-- parent checkpoint id
-- namespace
-- state snapshot
-- next active nodes
-- completed tasks for the superstep
-- pending writes
-- interrupts
-- metadata
-
-Interrupted or failed nodes may rerun from the beginning. Node authors must make
-side effects idempotent or isolate side effects behind tools/middleware that can
-record exactly-once intent.
-
-### Interrupts And Resume
-
-Interrupts support human-in-the-loop and external approval flows.
-
-```rust
-pub struct Interrupt {
-    pub id: String,
-    pub node: NodeId,
-    pub payload: serde_json::Value,
-}
-```
-
-Resume should use a command-style API:
-
-```rust
-graph.resume(
-    RunConfig::thread("support-123"),
-    Command::resume(json!({ "approved": true })),
-).await?;
-```
-
-The default semantic should match LangGraph: resuming restarts the interrupted
-node and replays until the interrupt point using stored resume values. That is
-more durable than trying to suspend an async Rust stack.
-
-### Streaming
-
-The graph should expose low-level runtime events, higher-level projections, a
-status store, and optional durable replay for outside listeners. The canonical
-feature references are:
-
-- [Graph streaming and events](../modules/graph/streaming.md)
-- [Graph observability and tracing](../modules/graph/observability.md)
-- [Graph checkpointing and state inspection](../modules/graph/checkpointing.md)
-- [Graph memory and stores boundary](../modules/graph/memory-boundary.md)
-
-Low-level events:
-
-- node started
-- node completed
-- node failed
-- state update
-- checkpoint saved
-- task scheduled
-- interrupt emitted
-- route selected
-
-High-level stream modes:
-
-- values: full state snapshots
-- updates: partial state updates
-- messages: model/message deltas emitted by harness nodes
-- debug: verbose executor events
-- interrupts: interrupt payloads
-- custom: user events
-
-The graph should also expose a compact run-status record:
-
-```rust
-pub struct GraphRunStatus {
-    pub run_id: RunId,
-    pub root_run_id: RunId,
-    pub parent_run_id: Option<RunId>,
-    pub thread_id: Option<ThreadId>,
-    pub graph_id: GraphId,
-    pub checkpoint_id: Option<CheckpointId>,
-    pub checkpoint_namespace: Vec<String>,
-    pub status: ExecutionStatus,
-    pub current_step: usize,
-    pub active_nodes: Vec<NodeId>,
-    pub pending_interrupts: Vec<InterruptId>,
-    pub last_event_id: Option<EventId>,
-    pub started_at: SystemTime,
-    pub updated_at: SystemTime,
-    pub ended_at: Option<SystemTime>,
-    pub error: Option<GraphErrorSummary>,
-}
-```
-
-Graph status records are not checkpoints. Checkpoints preserve resumable graph
-state; status records summarize live and recent execution for observers. A
-graph event journal should let listeners subscribe live or replay from a stored
-offset by run id, root run id, thread id, graph id, node id, event kind, or
-namespace. Derived projections such as latest status by thread, task timing
-rollups, checkpoint summaries, and introspection snapshots may be cached when
-they include source coordinates: run id, checkpoint id, namespace, step, event
-offset, and projection version.
-
-### Subgraphs
-
-Subgraphs should be executable graphs that can be used as nodes.
-
-Two modes are needed:
-
-- shared-state subgraph: parent and child graph use the same state channels
-- adapter subgraph: wrapper node maps parent state into child state and maps the
-  child result back into parent state
-
-Checkpoint namespaces are required so parent and child checkpoint ids do not
-collide.
-
-### Execution Guarantees
-
-The graph runtime should guarantee:
-
-- every visited node existed at validation time
-- every configured edge points to an existing node
-- conditional routes fail clearly when missing
-- recursion limit failures are deterministic
-- checkpoint writes happen at configured execution boundaries
-- interrupted runs can be resumed only when checkpointing is configured
-- final state is returned exactly once
-
-The graph runtime should not guarantee:
-
-- deterministic LLM output
-- tool idempotency
-- provider-specific retry behavior
-- persistence across process restarts unless a checkpointer is configured
-- exactly-once side effects inside node code
-
-### Future Graph Features
-
-- graph serialization to JSON
-- Mermaid export
-- parallel branches
-- joins
-- typed route enums
-- static graph analysis
-- graph diffing
-- graph snapshots for tests
-- durable task queue integration
-

Subject: [PATCH 1002/1076] docs(runtime-comparison): update pi comparison for
 graph runtime removal

The pi comparison doc no longer claims TinyAgents has a graph runtime or
checkpointer, since that crate was removed in #61, and the durable per-step
run state and conversation branching rows now reflect the harness loop's
actual behaviour. The gap analysis and mapping notes were reworded to
describe designing per-tool-call durable state rather than porting pi's
state machine onto a graph.

Subject: [PATCH 1004/1076] docs(harness): drop graph-level steering from
 subagent steering docs

Steering is now scoped to the harness level, so the graph-level section,
graph targets, and graph supervisor actor were removed and the remaining
text reworded to reference host policy and run contracts instead of graph
state. The pydantic-ai comparison was updated to match the narrower scope.

Subject: [PATCH 1005/1076] docs: remove graph runtime references from registry
 and comparison docs

The graph runtime has been removed, so the registry design no longer
describes graph registration and the events doc drops the graph
checkpointer from store registration. The E2E test matrix and runtime
comparison docs are updated to match, with the backend conformance gap
now marked partial since the graph testkit suite is gone.

Subject: [PATCH 1006/1076] docs: remove graph runtime references from harness
 and test docs

The harness documentation no longer describes a graph node runtime mode or graph-owned responsibilities, since the graph runtime was removed in TinyAgents #61 and the harness now owns the direct model-tool-model loop. The E2E test matrix and SDK gap notes drop the corresponding graph and delegation entries to match the current surface.

Subject: [PATCH 1007/1076] docs(harness): remove graph references from harness
 module docs

The harness documentation no longer describes graph nodes, routing, or
super-step caps, since graph execution is not part of the harness. Mentions of
graph state were reworded to session state, and the observability event list
drops graph-specific fields.

Subject: [PATCH 1008/1076] docs: remove graph module references from harness
 and registry docs

The graph module has been dropped, so its event kinds, exporter
behaviour, and non-responsibility entries are no longer accurate. The
harness control surface is now described on its own terms and the spec
index no longer links to the removed module.

 runtime removal

The executive summary now reflects that the graph runtime, graph checkpointers, and graph fanout APIs were removed in TinyAgents #61, so the remaining gaps are narrowed to durable orchestration stores, richer streaming events, and SDK-owned lifecycle adapters. The migration wishlist drops references to graph Send helpers and graph store conformance in favour of sessions and stores.

Subject: [PATCH 1010/1076] docs: update gap docs after graph crate removal

The runtime comparison now records the graph durability gaps as descoped
following the removal of the TinyAgents graph crate in #61, and the C3
streaming row points at harness and session streams instead of graph
projections. Registry snapshot and DOT/JSON export requirements in the
cost and model catalog no longer mention graph nodes or checkpointers,
and the orchestration middleware status drops the graph defer note.

Subject: [PATCH 1011/1076] docs: remove graph runtime references from specs

The graph crate was removed in TinyAgents #61, so the docs no longer
describe graph execution as a first-class runtime. Conformance cases,
store responsibilities, and the workflow-to-graph plan item were dropped
or marked descoped, and the design goals now refer to agent workflows
generally.

 pre-#61 baseline

The runtime comparison docs now note that graph execution, checkpointing and
graph-specific gaps describe the pre-#61 baseline, since the graph runtime was
removed in TinyAgents #61. References to the deleted langgraph and graph/workspace
review documents were dropped, and the README example link now points at the
subconscious_loop source directory instead of its removed README.

Drop mentions of graph subgraphs, graph routing, graph-node compatibility, and graph-level usage rollups from the harness and registry documentation, along with the corresponding non-responsibility and validation notes. The harness no longer models graph concerns, so the docs now describe agent- and thread-level behaviour only.

Subject: [PATCH 1016/1076] docs: update runtime comparison notes after graph
 fork removal

The registry operations guide no longer lists a graph-state diff transformer, and transformers are now described as registry extensions rather than being hardcoded into tools, graphs, or models. The runtime comparison docs drop references to the compiled-graph executor's per-thread lease and graph fork_state API, both removed in #61, and reword the state/Ctx split to reflect nested calls.

Reworded the error documentation to describe the current harness,
orchestration, and persistence surfaces, marking the graph variants as
legacy compatibility shims now that the workspace no longer ships a graph
execution runtime. Also tidied the id type definitions in the same crate.

Subject: [PATCH 1020/1076] docs(ids): clarify checkpoint id and session
 ownership

Reword the ids documentation so checkpoint ids are described as opaque
compatibility values whose restart safety only matters to adapters that persist
them, and note that durable conversation identity and resume are owned by
tinyagents-session via SessionRef. Also drop graph-node and sub-graph wording
from the id and lifecycle enum descriptions to match the current surface.

stops firing on the InjectMessage variant. Boxing the payload would break the
public command API, and these commands are short-lived control messages, so the

Subject: [PATCH 1025/1076] fix(exec): authorize installs before resolving the
 package manager

Install requests are now sent through the approval gate before any
package-manager lookup happens, so a denied install no longer probes the
host for available managers. The install logic was extracted into a
standalone function that accepts an injectable path lookup, letting tests
assert the ordering of authorization and manager resolution.

Subject: [PATCH 1026/1076] refactor(exec): reindent install tool execution
 path

The body of execute_install was indented one level deeper than its
signature, so the block was reindented to match the surrounding style.
No behaviour changes; the tests were adjusted only for the same
formatting.

Subject: [PATCH 1028/1076] test(exec): drop stale manager name assertion

The path lookup closure no longer asserts that the probed manager is apt-get, since the test now covers cases where automatic detection finds no supported manager. The call counter is still incremented to verify lookup behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 1029/1076] fix(exec): resolve install manager after
 authorization

Manager resolution now runs after the authorization gate instead of before it, so the gate sees the requested manager (or "auto") rather than a resolved binary path. This keeps automatic selection opaque until the install is approved and avoids leaking resolution details into the audit event.

Add a test asserting that an authorized install whose package manager

backend execution attempted, for both auto-detection and an explicitly
unsupported manager.

Subject: [PATCH 1031/1076] fix(exec): audit install manager resolution
 failures

When an authorized install could not resolve a package manager, the
failure was returned without recording an audit event, leaving the
attempt invisible in the audit trail. The resolution failure now emits
an ExecAuditOutcome::InstallManagerResolutionFailed event carrying the
backend selection, and the backend selection is captured before
resolution so it is available on that path.

 # Changelog
 
+## 3.0.0 — 2026-10-22
+
+**Breaking.** This release completes the TinyAgents slim-down: generic tool
+types and tool-call parsing live in TinyTools, while host-specific execution
+policy and adapters remain with their hosts. Public crates and modules removed
+during the 2.x migration are no longer part of the TinyAgents workspace.
+
+- Bump the surviving TinyAgents workspace crates to 3.0.0.
+- Update the nested TinyTools pin to the 0.6-compatible epic revision.
+
+The unreleased entries below describe the changes accumulated before this
+major release.
+
 ## Unreleased: dedicated hooks crate (tinyagents#470)
 
 **Breaking.** Stop-hook and lifecycle-hook APIs now live in

Subject: [PATCH 1039/1076] test(session): cover lease takeover before
 transcript entry write

Add a test double that expires and reassigns a successor reservation at the
moment the stale handle writes its first entry, so the transcript driver's
behaviour under that interleaving is exercised. The new dev-dependencies
supply the storage driver types the double needs.

 multimodal feature

The harness no longer depends on tinytools-std, so the optional dependency and its feature wiring were removed and the lockfile updated. The storage-drivers test dependencies now pull in the connect and document crates instead.

Subject: [PATCH 1042/1076] feat(session): add lease-conditioned transcript
 generation writes

Add an optional conditioned storage factory to DriverSessionStores so the
first entry in a reserved transcript generation can be written with its
lease condition enforced atomically. When no conditioned factory is
configured, generation writes fail closed rather than silently skipping
the condition.

Subject: [PATCH 1043/1076] test(session): simplify transcript takeover test
 helper

Replace the hand-rolled TakeoverBeforeEntry document store wrapper with a
take_over_reservation helper that expires and reacquires the successor
reservation directly, removing the boilerplate delegation of every
DocumentStore method.

The transcript driver now borrows the opened docs when constructing the repo instead of moving them, matching the constructor's expected argument type.

Subject: [PATCH 1046/1076] test(session): capture scope before opener closure

Clone the scope into a local binding before constructing the conditioned entry opener so the closure no longer borrows the outer scope directly, keeping the test's ownership setup valid.

Subject: [PATCH 1047/1076] test(session): synchronize reservation race test
 with channels

The test previously performed the lease takeover from inside the opener
callback, which made the interleaving implicit and hard to reason about.
It now signals the conditioned open over a channel, performs the takeover
on the test thread, and joins the writer, making the race deterministic.

Subject: [PATCH 1049/1076] test(transcript): back test locator with sqlite
 conditional writes

The shared test locator now builds a driver-backed locator over a temporary
SQLite database with a conditioned entry opener, so tests exercise native
conditional writes instead of the in-memory store. The adoption tests reuse
this locator, and the conditioned opener type and constructor are widened to
crate visibility so the fixture can reach them.

Subject: [PATCH 1050/1076] test(session): run driver store conformance against
 sqlite

The driver session store tests now build their stores on a sqlite-backed
factory with conditioned document storage instead of the in-memory backend,
so the conformance and isolation suites exercise the real driver path. The
memory-backed helpers were replaced by a shared factory builder that maps
each test agent to its own scope.

Subject: [PATCH 1051/1076] test(session): cover conditioned storage factories
 in driver conformance

The driver session store tests now build their providers through a
conditioned storage factory helper instead of a plain storage factory, and
the prepared restricted actor contract no longer takes a backend argument.
This exercises the conditioned storage path in the conformance and recovery
tests.

Subject: [PATCH 1053/1076] test(transcript): expose conditioned driver locator
 for tests

Split the driver locator fixture so the concrete conditioned locator can be
obtained directly, while the existing helper still returns it as a trait
object. This lets tests that need the concrete type reuse the same setup.

The documents accessor on DriverTranscriptLocator is only used by tests, so it is now compiled under cfg(test) to avoid dead code in production builds. The test locator fixture also clones the scope before the opener closure so the closure owns its own copy instead of capturing the outer binding.

Subject: [PATCH 1059/1076] test(session): certify driver transcripts on
 conditioned sqlite

The driver-backed transcript conformance suite now runs against SQLite
instead of the in-memory double, since generation writes require native
lease-conditioned document handles. Added a helper that builds both the
plain and conditioned storage factories over a single SQLite scope so the
suite can exercise the conditioned opener.

Subject: [PATCH 1063/1076] feat(session): add lease_for_agent to in-memory
 store provider

The in-memory session store provider now implements lease_for_agent by
returning a pinned lease over the agent's stable handles, so callers that
expect a lease can use the in-memory provider without special-casing it.
A test asserts the leased stores are the same instances returned by
for_agent.

Subject: [PATCH 1065/1076] feat(runtime): back driver session tests with
 sqlite

Driver session tests now run against a SQLite backend instead of the
testkit's in-memory backend, since the tests exercise lease-conditioned
generation writes that the simpler backend does not implement. The
tinystoragedrivers crate is added as a workspace dependency with the
sqlite feature enabled.

Subject: [PATCH 1066/1076] test(runtime): use in-memory session stores in
 behavior tests

Behavior tests that do not certify the driver's storage adapter now build
their session stores from the in-memory provider instead of the driver-backed
one, and a new in_memory helper exposes an empty in-memory transcript
locator. This decouples those tests from the storage driver so they exercise
runtime behavior only.

Subject: [PATCH 1069/1076] test(session-driver-conformance): cover conditioned
 storage factory

Extend the MongoDB session driver conformance test to build a
ConditionedAgentStorageFactory and register it on DriverSessionStores, so the
conditioned write path is exercised alongside the plain factory. The scoped
storage helper now accepts an optional WriteCondition and returns a Result to
propagate construction errors.

Subject: [PATCH 1070/1076] test(live_subagents): drive live subagent test
 through planner and executor

Rework the live OpenAI subagent test to exercise the public planner/executor
lifecycle with DriverSubAgentTool and SubAgentJobsTool instead of the older
SubAgentTool wiring, adding an in-memory persistence implementation and a
planner that prepares the child request. This keeps the network-backed test
aligned with the current subagent API and covers the detached child flow.

Subject: [PATCH 1071/1076] style(tinyagents-integration-tests): reformat live
 subagent test

Reformatted the live subagent integration test to satisfy rustfmt,
collapsing imports and chained calls onto single lines and wrapping
longer closures and assertions. No behaviour changed.
