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.
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.
Same two-script chain as `map_chain_two_script_steps_route_via_next`,
with `validate_before_run: true`, proving the validator admits the
chains the runtime executes.
`validate_map_branches` checked only the entry node and forbade `next`,
non-`output_key` `state_updates` and `output_schema` on it. The runtime
now executes the whole subgraph reachable from `branch`, so the validator
follows suit as `validate_map_subgraphs`, at the same position in
`validate()`:
- approval/input/end/map nodes are rejected anywhere in the subgraph,
attributed to the map node; when the offending node is a `fallback`
target the message says why a previously accepted `fallback` now fails
- a fan-out `next` inside the subgraph is rejected
- a subgraph that shares nodes with the main flow (reachable from
`start` without entering any map branch, via the new
`main_flow_reachable`) is rejected, naming the shared nodes
- a new warning fires when no subgraph node declares a write to
`output_key` via `state_updates` or `output_schema`; any script in the
subgraph suppresses it, since scripts may write any key
- the `next`, `state_updates` and `output_schema` restrictions are gone:
intra-branch writes are fork-local scratch
Two maps may share a subgraph. `find_reachable_nodes` and
`compute_parallel_groups` are unchanged.
Tests: the three rules that inverted are renamed to say what they now
assert (`map_branch_with_in_subgraph_next_passes`,
`map_branch_state_updates_scratch_key_passes`,
`map_branch_with_output_schema_passes`); the four
`map_branch_cannot_be_*` tests pass unmodified. Thirteen new tests cover
each rule, the fallback hint, the missing-writer warning and its three
suppressions, a three-node chain, and `main_flow_reachable`.
A map item no longer runs a single branch node; it walks the subgraph
reachable from `branch` over `next`/`fallback` edges (branch_subgraph),
one chain per item, holding one semaphore permit for the whole chain.
Chain steps go through the shared `step()` so llm retries, fallbacks,
script `_next` and agent timeouts keep their existing semantics. A node
without `next` ends the chain (StepContext.branch_mode), a route outside
the subgraph, a fan-out, an end node or a loop past
max_loop_iterations fails the item, and every item error carries
`map node 'X': sub-branch [i] failed at node 'Y' (step n)`.
`output_key` is removed from each item's fork before the chain runs, so
the collected value must be written by the chain rather than inherited
from the parent.
Teammate identities are now per item for the whole chain: provisioned
when any flagged agent is in the subgraph, armed only before
`teammates: true` agent steps, and retired at chain exit. mark_finished
moves out of run_agent_for_graph to the two provisioning sites (frontier
task and chain exit), so timed-out and early-failing agents are also
marked finished.
`MapNode.max_concurrency` becomes `Option<ConcurrencyCap>`, where
`ConcurrencyCap` is `Fixed(usize) | Template(String)`. Integers parse
exactly as before (`4` -> `Fixed(4)`, `0` -> `Fixed(0)`, absent -> `None`);
a string parses as a template that the map executor resolves against the
parent state right before the fan-out via `StateManager::interpolate_raw`,
mirroring `over:`. A template must resolve to an integer >= 1 or a numeric
string (scripts often emit numbers as strings); anything else, including 0,
is an error naming the map node, the template, and the resolved value/type.
The fixed path keeps its `.max(1)` clamp for byte-compatibility.
`Deserialize` is hand-written so a malformed value (`-1`, `4.5`, `true`,
a list, a map) reports the offending value and the accepted forms rather
than serde's opaque untagged-enum "did not match any variant".
Validator: a string cap that contains no `{{ ... }}` pair is a load-time
error (catches `"4"` typed for `4`); a templated cap joins the map node's
read set so `validate_parallel_reads` flags a read of a sibling branch's
write. The existing `Fixed(0)` rule and every other rule keep their order.
Design: plans/map-subgraph-branches-design.md §3.5, §3.11 (C3, I3).
Hoist the three copies of apply_state_updates (llm, agent, rag) into
graph::state_updates::apply(state, output, has_schema, updates). The
helper computes every state_updates value first, restores the transient
`output` binding, and only then writes the computed updates, so a
`state_updates: { output: "{{output}}" }` entry is no longer clobbered
by the restore step.
The per-file wrappers stay as one-line calls so their existing tests are
unchanged; new direct helper tests live in state_updates.rs, including
the regression test for the clobber.
Design: plans/map-subgraph-branches-design.md §2.6, §3.7 (C5, D3).
Agent nodes marked teammates: true whose sub-agents run concurrently (map fan-out branches or multiple flagged agent nodes in one super-step) now form a team: each member gets a pre-provisioned inbox in a messaging-only PeerRegistry before any branch starts, a teammate roster injected into its prompt, peer resolution in agent__send_message, and a peers section in agent__list_running. Registries are scoped to a single fan-out and carry no lifecycle semantics: outputs still flow exclusively through collect_into/state reducers, finished peers reject new messages, and nothing registers in a supervisor. Also hardens the agent-recursion depth guard to work without a supervisor and adds validator warnings for zero-valued orchestration limits.
Graph agents previously derived can_spawn_agents from the presence of an agent node, so a pure-LLM-node graph could never spawn dynamic sub-agents. The three optional graph-level keys now override the derivation/defaults in AgentConfig::from_graph, enabling orchestrator graphs (can_spawn_agents: true with only llm nodes). Explicit false on a graph with agent nodes still runs those nodes; only dynamic spawning from llm nodes is disabled.
python3 first-start on fresh Windows runners (AV interpreter scans) blew
the 5s/10s/30s script timeouts. Drop the incidental python3 spawns from
the bash fixtures (pure-bash JSON extraction) and give the genuinely
python tests 60s headroom.
The supervisor registry went kind-generic (TaskHandle::Agent | Job)
earlier in this branch, but the module holding the agent__* handlers
and two model-facing error strings still carried the old name:
- src/function/supervisor.rs -> src/function/agents.rs (it contains
only agent__* tool handlers, pairing with function/jobs.rs; the
kind-generic src/supervisor/ registry keeps its name)
- 'Supervisor tool failed' -> 'Agent tool failed'
- 'Unknown supervisor action' -> 'Unknown agent action'
Graph LLM nodes now own the jobs they start, on every exit path. A new
node_job_scope on RequestContext records job ids started while a node
runs: the turn-end guardrail nags only about the node's own jobs
(parallel branches no longer see each other's), and the node executor
reaps — cancels and deregisters — anything left registered when the
node exits, including error, timeout, and retry-exhaustion paths.
Cross-node job handoff is no longer possible; a crashed node takes its
in-flight jobs with it.
With inheritance gone, job__* declarations are gated on capability:
the family is only declared when at least one declared tool would pass
job__start's whitelist (shared predicate: is_backgroundable_tool). One
carve-out — while a context still owns registered jobs (job started,
tool disabled mid-session), the lifecycle verbs stay declared so a
running job can never become unreachable; job__start alone disappears.
A graph node with tools: [] now sees no job__* tools at all.
Prompt instructions, tool declarations, and graph.example.yaml updated
to the node-local semantics; +7 tests, 8 visibility pins rewritten.
The executor integration-test module hoisted job-test paths into
module-level imports, but their only consumer is a #[cfg(unix)] test —
on Windows the imports went unused and failed -D warnings.
Graph agents could only inherit the app-wide job budget; the agent-level
header in graph.yaml now accepts max_concurrent_jobs alongside
model/temperature, flowing through AgentConfig::from_graph into the
run-wide supervisor. Deliberately graph-wide, not per-node: jobs outlive
the node that started them.
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).
`RagNode` gains an optional `driver`, forwarded into `RagInitConfig` so a
graph node can build its knowledge base on duckdb instead of yaml. Nodes
that name no driver forward `None`, which still resolves to yaml, so
existing workflows are unaffected.
An unknown driver is rejected up front rather than at construction time.
`Rag::create` dispatches unknown drivers to its yaml catch-all, so a typo
would otherwise embed every document and persist the bogus string, after
which every subsequent load fails validation and the agent cannot start.
The check asks `RagData::validate()` through a probe value instead of
restating the list of valid drivers, so the two cannot drift.
