A task aborted before its first poll never runs its body, so a guard
constructed inside the future did not exist yet and the pre-provisioned
teammate identity stayed messageable. Built outside and moved in, the
guard drops with the unpolled future on both the frontier and map items.
Also rewords the two timeout: 0 validator warnings: the graph-level one
no longer claims max_loop_iterations always applies (it may be 0 too),
and the node-level one names the enclosing bounds that still end the
node instead of saying it runs until it returns.
Semaphore::new panics above tokio's MAX_PERMITS, so a fixed or templated
map cap (or settings.max_concurrency) that large crashed the run instead
of erroring. The validator rejects both at load, resolve_max_concurrency
rejects every arm at run time, and the executor checks the graph setting
before building its own semaphore, so validation mode makes no difference.
Also corrects run_child_agent_with_graph_inputs' contract comment: inputs
for a config-only agent are rejected, not ignored.
On slow runners bash start-up alone can exceed the fixed 300 ms delay, so
the abort landed before the worker tasks (and their retirement guards)
existed and the observer saw nothing. The dispatcher now leaves a marker
and the trigger waits for it.
Comment-only: settings.timeout notes that Ctrl-C ends a run promptly from
anywhere; the map node's as:/output_key: comments state that the two must
differ, and max_concurrency describes the template form as exactly one
{{key}} with nothing around it.
A string max_concurrency passed the load-time check whenever it merely
contained a {{...}} pair, so forms like "n={{k}}" or "{{ key }}" that
can never resolve at runtime were only caught after the map's inputs had
been computed. The check now requires the trimmed string to be exactly
one template reference, matching what interpolate_raw resolves as a pure
reference; padded forms like " {{budget}} " stay valid.
Also: the bash tool build-failure context names the source file instead
of the destination path, and the map-subgraph validator no longer
shadows its member id list with the resolved member nodes.
A map node whose item binding shares its name with output_key would have
the binding collected as the chain's result whenever the chain never
wrote it, while the missing-writer warning stayed silent. The collision
is now a validator error attributed to the map node and, with validation
off, a runtime error in run_map before any item forks.
LlmNodeExecutor::execute now takes the graph's abort signal and threads
it through run -> run_with_retries -> run_chat_loop, replacing the
loop-private signal, so an in-flight model call is interrupted and every
turn starts with an abort check that bails 'llm node aborted' before any
client is created.
run_llm_function gains an optional abort signal: the synchronous tool
wait loop kills the child and returns a 'Tool call ... aborted' error
within one poll interval when it is set. The tool dispatcher passes the
session abort; the agent _instructions runner passes None.
A graph run now observes user interrupts wherever it is: GraphExecutor::run
spawns a run-scoped bridge that maps SIGINT or the enclosing session abort
onto the graph's own abort flag (only when a session signal exists; a
pre-set session trips a synchronous check). The frontier join selects on
the abort and, like the timeout path, cancels every in-flight branch task,
failing the run with 'Graph ... aborted during super-step'.
Branch and map item tasks are cancellation-owned via TaskCancelGuard, so
dropping a map task's future no longer detaches its item chains. Peer
retirement is a Drop guard (PeerRetireGuard) constructed before the
semaphore acquire and dropped explicitly right after step(), so the
success-path ordering is unchanged while task abort, panic, and the
pre-step abort return all still retire the identity.
A child agent spawned from a graph node now carries its parent's session
abort signal, so a user interrupt is observable from every sync wait in
the agent tree. Background agent__spawn children are unchanged.
run_child_agent_with_graph_inputs also guards the child's own supervisor
with a disarmable CancelOnDrop: if the future is dropped mid-flight or
the child fails before its normal cleanup, its spawned subagents are
cancelled instead of running on invisibly.
GraphState.history was pushed to on every node visit and deep-cloned on
every super-step snapshot and map fork, but its only reader is the
cfg(test) current_node accessor. Gate the field, its initializer, and
the push behind cfg(test) so production builds no longer carry an
unbounded Vec<String> that nothing observes.
validate_timeouts now also flags settings.max_loop_iterations: 0, ahead
of the settings.timeout: 0 warning so both opt-outs read top-to-bottom
as they appear in settings. (design §3.14 / C22)
Both enforcement sites (frontier loop and map chain step) skip the
comparison when the cap is 0; visits are still counted and logged.
Adds an executor test that loops past the default cap with 0, a test
pinning the frontier cap message for a non-zero value, and a map-chain
twin at 0. (design §3.14 / C22)
A timeout: 0 on settings.timeout or on an agent/script/llm/rag node is
the author's explicit opt-out of the wall-clock bound. It stays legal;
the validator now emits one warning per zero so the choice is visible in
--validate output. Non-zero and unset values do not warn (unset already
means no bound for settings.timeout and llm nodes, matching the
explicit-zero-only convention of the orchestration-limit warnings).
Design §3.13 / C21.
A zero on any of the five timeout fields (settings.timeout, agent, script,
llm, rag) now disables the bound instead of firing an immediate
"timed out after 0s" or graph bail. Unset values keep their defaults
(agent 300, script 30, rag 120, llm/settings none); non-zero values are
unchanged. One resolution helper, wall_clock(secs) -> Option<Duration>,
feeds all five call sites; the C17 peer-retirement mark and every error
message stay where they were.
The one existing test that relied on timeout: 0 firing
(run_item_chain_marks_identity_finished_when_agent_step_times_out) moves
to timeout: 1 with its 5s hold unchanged.
Design §3.13 / C21.
Two offline chain tests materialize an echo-inputs graph agent whose
script reports the width it sees: a parent with inputs.width gets the
parent's value back, a parent without inputs gets the child's YAML
default. Two agents.rs tests pin the exact runtime guard texts for a
config-only target and a reserved initial_prompt key.
Task T5 of plans/map-subgraph-branches-design.md §3.12.
Inside validate_agents: an agent node with inputs whose target has a
config.yaml but no graph.yaml is an error, and an inputs key named
initial_prompt is rejected. primary_templated_fields now includes every
inputs value for agent nodes, so validate_parallel_reads treats them as
cross-branch reads with no new pass.
Design: plans/map-subgraph-branches-design.md §3.12 V10a–V10c, task T5.
Agent nodes gain an optional `inputs:` map of templates resolved against
the parent state and overlaid on the child graph agent's initial_state
before its executor starts. A lone {{key}} keeps the state value's JSON
type; mixed text renders to a string; initial_prompt is still owned by the
dispatcher. run_child_agent and run_active_agent_graph keep their
signatures as wrappers over the new *_with_inputs variants, and
run_agent_for_graph rejects inputs aimed at a config-only agent or
containing initial_prompt.
Design: plans/map-subgraph-branches-design.md §3.12 (C18), task T5.
PR #24 follow-up 10. The identity was only retired by the frontier and
chain-exit safety nets, so a peer stayed messageable during
structured::extract after its agent had already stopped. Mark it
finished the moment the agent future resolves, on success and on both
error paths.
Copilot review on PR #24. The validator already rejects 0 and the
template path errors on it, but a literal 0 loaded with
validate_before_run off was silently clamped to 1. Fail with the same
error shape as the template path; only the absent-cap default clamps.
Copilot review on PR #24. The fields were only ever cleared by
run_agent_for_graph taking them, so a failure between arming and that
take (e.g. prompt interpolation) left them set on the item's ctx.
Reset both unconditionally once the step returns.
PR #24 follow-up 6. The identity used to fall back to YAML declaration
order after the entry, so the name depended on how the author ordered
the nodes map. Walk next/fallback edges from the entry instead.
PR #24 follow-ups 3 and 4. run_chain_steps already wraps every step
error with the map/item/node/step locator, so the inner messages
repeated it. Make them prefix-free and turn the unreachable End arm
into an honest internal-invariant message.
PR #24 follow-up 2. With validate_before_run off, a user-authored
approval/input/end/map node inside a branch reached a message that
called itself an internal error. Name the node type and point at the
validator setting instead.
PR #24 follow-up 1. The bundled-tools test called the writing
generate_bash_declarations on the repo's assets/functions/tools/*.sh,
so cargo test could rewrite tracked files. Split the build+export step
into a pure build_bash_tool so the test never touches the source tree.
Comment-only rewrite of the map/branch and teammates comments: a branch is
the entry of a per-item chain; chain nodes may use next, state_updates,
output_schema, fallback and script _next inside the chain; output_key is
removed from the fork and must be written by the chain; max_concurrency
accepts an integer or a template; a teammate identity spans the item's
whole chain.
Add the motivating map-chain integration test: draft -> check, where check
re-routes to draft via script `_next` until an item-local attempts counter
reaches 2, run with validate_before_run on. A sibling test drives the same
map node against a parent state to pin that only collect_into lands on the
parent and that no chain visit touches the parent's loop counts.
Extend bundled_graph_agents_parse_and_validate: the sorted (node, warning)
set of every bundled graph must equal the set the pre-subgraph validator
produced, and graph.example.yaml must load through GraphParser, validate
without errors, and declare a writer for its map's output_key.
