- Skip the builtins bootstrap, function-binary build, and tool-scope
rebuild for inspection-only runs (--info/--list-*/--mcp-list/
--list-secrets without --agent/--role): a pristine COYOTE_CONFIG_DIR
now stays byte-empty (was 269 files written before dispatch)
- Tolerate a model-less default config on the inspection surface via
AppConfig::from_config_lenient + Model::default() in bootstrap;
strict 'No available model' behavior unchanged for the REPL path and
all mutating mcp/vault flags
- --list-secrets degrades to an rc=0 informational message in sandbox
mode (mutating vault flags still fail there), pinned by test
- Add the 041.7-4 regression test: a malformed COYOTE_<NAME>_GLOBAL_TOOLS
env override logs the debug message and leaves global_tools untouched
- Adopt scripts/usage-probe-inspection.sh (10 flags: rc=0 + zero writes,
output required only for --info) and add binary-level
tests/inspection_flags.rs, incl. the agent+--info still-bootstraps pin
Introduce src/hooks.rs as a types-only module (HookDef, HooksMap) and
plumb hooks:/global_hooks: config fields through every scope:
- Config + AppConfig hooks field, both Default impls, the manual
from_config copy, and a COYOTE_HOOKS env override
- Role frontmatter: hand-parsed hooks arm, private field, getter, and
JSON-inline re-serialization in Role::export (malformed maps degrade
to None)
- AgentConfig + Graph: hooks + global_hooks on both structs, copied in
AgentConfig::from_graph, with a per-agent global_hooks env override
- paths::hooks_dir() = <config_dir>/hooks with COYOTE_HOOKS_DIR override
- Commented hooks: block in the global config template (global scope
only; no global_hooks key)
No engine or dispatch logic yet; existing configs parse unchanged.
Implements T1 of plans/background-jobs-design.md (§6, R7/R8/R9):
- Supervisor.handles is now HashMap<String, TaskHandle> where
TaskHandle = Agent(AgentHandle) | Job(JobHandle); agent-facing
accessors (active_count, effective_active_count, is_finished, take,
inbox, abort_signal_for, list_agents) match only Agent variants,
preserving all existing external behavior byte-for-byte.
- New JobHandle/JobState/JobStatus/JobResult types with pgid-guarded
process-group kill discipline: Drop and cancel_all/cancel_recursive
kill the group only while state.pgid is still set (pid-reuse guard),
via libc::killpg on unix and JoinHandle::abort elsewhere.
- Per-kind job capacity: Supervisor carries max_concurrent_jobs
(builder-set, default 0); job registration rejects at capacity.
- Cross-kind teaching errors at the four agent-lookup miss sites
(agent__check/collect/cancel/send_message) when the id is a
registered job or job_-prefixed; genuinely-unknown ids keep their
existing messages.
- Supervisor init condition is now can_spawn_agents || jobs_enabled in
use_agent and both child-agent spawn paths, with agent capacity 0 in
jobs-only contexts; use_agent cancels the old supervisor recursively
before replacing it.
- max_concurrent_jobs config plumbing: global Config field, AgentConfig
override + accessor, all four AppConfig touch points including the
COYOTE_MAX_CONCURRENT_JOBS env override; shared
effective_max_concurrent_jobs/jobs_enabled predicates
(agent override -> global -> default 5; 0 disables).
- Stage dependency-free RingBuf (64 KiB default) in src/function/jobs.rs
for the upcoming job output pump.
- New sanctioned dependency: libc 0.2 under cfg(unix).
Mirrors --no-workspace-mcp exactly: a CLI-only flag backed by an
AppConfig field (default false) that disables .coyote/macros in both
the resolved macro policy and Macro::load's workspace-then-global
preference, so the two always agree (custom-commands design §5).
Mirrors the enabled_skills plumbing per plans/custom-commands-design.md §5:
- global: Config + AppConfig structs, from_config copy, and the
COYOTE_ENABLED_MACROS env-override arm (csv_to_vec parsing)
- role: frontmatter via parse_string_or_array (list or csv string),
plus the export() mirror so Role::save round-trips the field
- agent (non-graph): plain serde on AgentConfig; graph.yaml silently
ignores the key (pinned by test, no field on Graph by design)
- session: plain serde with csv-or-vec deserializer
Empty list/string deserializes to Some([]) (explicit zero), distinct
from absent/null (None) — pinned by tests at every level, including
the env arm (serial-fenced against the from_config tests, which read
the process env via load_envs).
- Hang fix: 120s timeout on compression LLM call + raw_stream
channel-close handling (None => break instead of spinning)
- Supervisor effective active count: stop counting finished
JoinHandles as occupying capacity slots
- Universal tool result size cap: truncate_if_needed() on
ToolResult, applied in eval_tool_calls() after escalation block;
configurable via max_tool_result_chars in AppConfig/AgentConfig
- Windowed compression: compression_keep_last config param keeps
the N most recent messages visible after compression
- Fix pre-existing flaky test: add #[serial] to
handle_list_available_unrestricted_when_no_whitelist so it does
not race with TestConfigDirGuard-based tests that temporarily
populate the agents data dir
