Titling is two-stage — a slice of the user's own words lands inline, the
model's version replaces it a second later — and the platform rename lanes
fired on both. That is two rate-limited calls to reach one name, and
Discord allows two channel renames per ten minutes, so the throwaway could
be the one that survived. The callback now carries which stage it is, and
the lanes take the model's.
The relay lane also asked where the reply landed at title time, which is
before the model has answered: it polled the send-result cache for ten
seconds and read the timeout as "never auto-threaded", so any turn with
tool calls in it silently kept its raw thread name. Wait on the send
itself instead — the adapter already owns that cache, so it can say when a
reply arrives and, just as usefully, that one arrived carrying nothing.
Titling fired on the first response, so a session sat unnamed for the whole
opening turn - p50 151s, p90 1212s across real sessions, because a turn is
tool calls, not one round-trip. A turn that failed or was interrupted never
got a title at all. Four surfaces each carried their own copy of the call.
Move it into the shared turn prologue and split it in two: a deterministic
title derived from the user's opening message, written inline before the
model runs, then one small-model call that upgrades it. The response is
constrained to a JSON object so there is no preamble to strip, and control
wrappers are stripped rather than refused, so a slash command titles as
what the user asked for instead of the command itself.
- Give cached_fetch_api_models the same stale-while-revalidate tier as
cached_provider_model_ids: TTL-expired entries within the 7d window are
served instantly while a background refresh rewrites the cache —
without this, every /model open an hour into the session re-blocked on
the live probe (#72762's stall class, deferred).
- Generalize _spawn_swr_refresh(cache_key, refresh_fn) so non-slug
custom:<base_url> keys reuse the same inflight-dedupe scaffolding;
slug behavior unchanged (default refresh_fn preserved).
- Convert the missed sibling site: acp_adapter/server.py
_named_custom_provider_catalogs() live-probed every custom_providers
row's /v1/models per ACP catalog build.
- Extract _cache_entry_valid() (the fp/models predicate existed 4x) and
validate 'at' is numeric so hand-edited/corrupt cache JSON degrades to
a live fetch instead of raising through the picker's blanket except.
- Flatten the dead api_mode conditional (fetch_api_models declares
api_mode=None; branch was behaviorally inert).
- Tests: 4 new guards (stale-serve, stale-window cutoff, generalized SWR
write-through, corrupt-at degradation) — stale-serve and corrupt-at
mutation-checked; 2 existing tests updated for the new behavior.
Replace the process-global HERMES_CRON_SESSION env var with a per-session
ContextVar so a cron tick in the gateway process cannot leak into unrelated
live gateway/API/TUI turns. The cron scheduler now sets the ContextVar
inside the job's try/finally scope and resets it on cleanup. Gateway, API
server, ACP adapter, and TUI gateway all pass cron_session='' to explicitly
mark their sessions as non-cron, masking any stale process env.

Closes#37968
Makes interrupt-protected context compression cancellable by an explicit
user or lifecycle stop, without weakening protection against ordinary
incoming messages, voice interjections, or active-turn redirects.
Separates explicit hard cancellation from ordinary interrupt/redirect
state with a dedicated threading.Event; introduces
AuxiliaryExplicitCancellation as an attempt-local frozen-cause signal;
isolates the synchronous provider callback in a bounded daemon worker
during protected compression; atomically linearizes Codex timeout
cleanup against explicit cancellation; propagates hard cancellation
through child agents and explicit stop surfaces; serializes hard-cancel
admission against compression commit admission with
CompressionCommitFence; aborts before session rotation or late DB commit,
restores in-place transcript mutations and compressor state, and releases
the heartbeat and compression lease.
Based on #74449 by @suparious. Resolved merge conflicts in
agent/context_compressor.py (feasibility check + try/except) and
tui_gateway/methods_session.py.
The ACP prompt path called set_session_vars(session_key=session_id, ...)
without passing session_id, so the HERMES_SESSION_ID ContextVar was bound
to its explicit "" default. Once the session-context machinery is engaged,
_inject_session_context_env treats an explicitly-bound "" as authoritative
and writes it to the child env — so subprocesses spawned during an ACP turn
got an empty HERMES_SESSION_ID instead of the session's own id.
Pass session_id through so child subprocesses carry the correct id.
Salvage of the ACP half of #53454 by @necoweb3 (the V4A-path half is
salvaged separately in the file-tools PR).

The claim 'late tools then require an explicit /reload-mcp' was false on
current main: the between-turns prologue refresh (agent/turn_context.py)
picks up late-connecting servers cache-safely at every turn boundary,
and ACP has no /reload-mcp. The daemon's real marginal value is tool-list
freshness in the [session created -> first message] window.
Review follow-ups on the #32811 salvage:
- Hold state.runtime_lock and bail on is_running so the pre-first-turn
guard can't race the first prompt dispatch (a refresh publishing
mid-turn would swap tools= and break the just-created cache prefix).
Regression test mutation-checked (guard removed -> test fails).
- In-memory-only session lookup in the daemon: get_session() falls
through to a DB restore that builds a whole new AIAgent just to
decide no-op (TUI equivalent also checks its in-memory dict only).
- Pass quiet_mode=True explicitly, matching the TUI/gateway callers.
- Use ensure_mcp_discovery_before_agent_build() (landed on main after
the PR) instead of bare wait_for_mcp_discovery() so the ACP agent
build is self-sufficient and gets the retry-after-zero-connected
allowance, matching CLI/one-shot construction sites.
ACP entry.py fires MCP discovery in a background daemon thread, but
_make_agent snapshots tools once at build and never re-reads the registry.
Unlike CLI/TUI, ACP had no bounded wait before the snapshot and no
late-refresh for configured (config.yaml) MCP servers — a reachable-but-
slow server that finished after agent build was invisible for the whole
session.
Changes:
- acp_adapter/session.py (_make_agent): call wait_for_mcp_discovery()
before AIAgent construction, bounded by mcp_discovery_timeout (default
~1.5s). A dead server can't block; servers that miss the bound are
picked up by the late-refresh below.
- acp_adapter/server.py (_schedule_mcp_late_refresh): new method on
HermesACPAgent — if discovery is still in flight after session creation,
spawns an off-critical-path daemon that joins it (bounded 30s), then
rebuilds the tool snapshot via the shared refresh_agent_mcp_tools helper.
Cache-safe: only runs pre-first-turn (_user_turn_count/_api_call_count
both 0); once the user has sent a message the snapshot is frozen, exactly
as TUI PR #48403 does.
- Called from new_session, load_session, resume_session.
- Mirrors the TUI pattern (tui_gateway _schedule_mcp_late_refresh, PR
#48403) and the CLI pattern (get_tool_definitions → wait_for_mcp_discovery).
Tests:
- Replace the AST-based test (source-text inspection) with three
behavioral regression tests in tests/acp_adapter/test_acp_mcp_discovery.py:
1. Blocked discovery does not block startup (non-blocking contract)
2. Delayed discovery lands tools via late-refresh (pre-first-turn)
3. Late-refresh is cache-safe: skips rebuild after first turn
Addresses teknium1 review on PR #32811.
find_custom_provider_identity_by_model (runtime_provider.py:895,908) and
acp_adapter/server.py:149 still used the old f"custom:{_normalize_custom_provider_name(...)}"
pattern while the rest of the codebase migrated to custom_provider_slug.
For keyed providers whose display name differs from their config key, the
model-based reverse lookup would return custom:<display-name> instead of
the stable custom:<provider_key> identity every other code path returns.

Slash commands run on the event-loop thread, outside the per-turn
contextvars.copy_context() that pins the session cwd for the agent call.
/compress reaches agent._build_system_prompt(), whose "Current working
directory" line comes from resolve_agent_cwd() — so an unpinned handler
rebuilt the prompt against the Hermes install tree and PERSISTED it as
the session's cached prompt, re-poisoning every later turn even though
the turn itself is now pinned.
Pin inside a fresh context copy so the write cannot leak into other
concurrent ACP sessions on the shared loop and needs no teardown.
An ACP session registered the client's cwd for the *tools*
(`_register_task_cwd` -> `register_task_env_overrides`) but never pinned it
for the *prompt*. `agent/prompt_builder.py` reports
`Current working directory: {resolve_agent_cwd()}`, and `resolve_agent_cwd()`
reads the `_SESSION_CWD` contextvar, which ACP left unset — so it fell back
to `TERMINAL_CWD` / the launch dir.
The system prompt therefore advertised one root (commonly
`~/.hermes/workspace`, or the install tree) while the tools were rooted at the
editor's project. When the model emitted a *relative* path the tools resolved
it correctly; when it emitted an *absolute* path built from the advertised
root, the write landed outside the client's workspace and the turn still
reported success.
Observed in Zed/Buzz-shaped usage: the first prompt in a fresh workspace
creates the file under `~/.hermes/workspace/` and answers "Done." The client's
directory is untouched. Later sessions on the same cwd appear to work once a
session cwd record exists, which makes it look intermittent.
`_run_agent` already calls `set_session_vars(session_key=session_id)` inside
its `contextvars.copy_context()`, and that helper's `cwd` argument exists to
"pin the logical working directory for this context". It simply was not
passed. `gateway/session_context.py` and `tui_gateway/server.py` both already
pass it; ACP was the only surface that did not.
Adds a regression test asserting that the resolved cwd *during the turn* is
the cwd the client passed to `session/new`. It fails without this change
(resolving the install tree instead of the client's project).
Named endpoints from the providers: mapping (and legacy custom_providers:
list) never appear in the ACP model selector: _build_model_state lists
only the canonical current provider's catalog, and canonical provider
enumeration does not include user-defined named endpoints. The TUI
/model picker already renders these entries (#47039, implemented for the
TUI surface only), so editor clients silently hide endpoints the user
configured — e.g. an OpenAI-compatible Bedrock Mantle Responses provider.
Add _named_custom_provider_catalogs(), sourcing entries from
get_compatible_custom_providers() (covers both config shapes), and append
its models to the selector payload. Choice ids use the custom:<name>
slug shape so custom:<name>:<model> selections round-trip through
parse_model_input / resolve_runtime_provider unchanged on set_session_model.
Declared models (default_model + models) survive failed live /models
discovery — some OpenAI-compatible endpoints expose no /models route yet
serve their declared models fine. Honors providers.<name>.enabled: false
and discover_models: false.
Verified: scripts/run_tests.sh tests/acp/ — 318 passed, 0 failed;
scripts/check-windows-footguns.py clean.
ACP clients (Zed, Buzz) render the whole availableModels array in a single
dropdown, so requesting the shared inventory with max_models=None could
hand an editor an unbounded cross-provider catalog.
Request the same per-provider cap the MoA picker already uses
(hermes_cli/moa_cmd.py), exposed as ACP_MAX_MODELS_PER_PROVIDER so the
intent is documented at the call site.
This bounds each provider's row rather than the total, matching the shared
inventory's own semantics: aggregator providers stay intentionally
uncapped, and the existing current-model fallback still re-inserts a
selection that falls outside the cap. At present no authenticated provider
approaches 200 models, so the visible catalog is unchanged; the cap is a
guardrail for large catalogs (e.g. OpenRouter) rather than a change to
today's lists.
The new test asserts the contract - bounded row plus a reachable current
selection - instead of a fixed catalog size, so growing the inventory
cannot turn it into a change-detector.

.get("key", {}) only applies the default when the key is ABSENT.
When the key exists with value None (null in JSON), .get() returns
None and the subsequent .get() raises AttributeError.
Fix: replace .get("key", {}).get(...) with (.get("key") or {}).get(...)
which handles both missing keys AND None values.

Main renamed the ACP slash command from /compact to /compress after #63630
was written; update the salvaged status line, comment, and behavioral test
to dispatch the command that actually exists.
compression.enabled: false is documented (agent/conversation_loop.py
overflow path) as disabling *automatic* compaction only — the terminal
context-overflow error explicitly tells users to run /compress manually,
and the gateway handler has never gated on the flag. But the classic CLI
(_manual_compress) and the ACP adapter (/compact) refused with
'Compression is disabled', leaving users at a full context with no
manual escape hatch on those surfaces.
Remove the stale gates (they predate the overflow-path design; the CLI
gate came from the original /compress commit's boilerplate) and unify
force=True across all manual-compaction call sites: ACP /compact and the
TUI's _compress_session_history (manual-only helper) now bypass the
summary-failure cooldown exactly like the CLI and gateway already did.
Also reword the ACP /context status line so a disabled-compression agent
no longer implies /compact is unavailable.

A context-compaction handoff is persisted as an ordinary history message
but is not a real turn. The ACP history replay streamed it as a bare
user/agent message chunk, dropping the in-process _compressed_summary
marker, so ACP frontends (editors, vscode-hermes) rendered the entire
handoff as a regular message.
Tag replayed summary chunks under _meta.hermes (ACP's extensibility
channel), covering all three persistence shapes the compressor emits:
- standalone role="user" handoff -> compactionSummary: true
- standalone role="assistant" handoff (alternation-driven role pick)
-> compactionSummary: true
- merge-into-tail message (preserved tail content + appended summary)
-> containsCompactionSummary: true, a distinct key so clients that
collapse standalone summaries cannot hide the preserved real content
Detection honors the in-process metadata flag and falls back to a new
ContextCompressor.classify_summary_content() content classifier
(standalone/merged/None), so it also works for a DB-reloaded session
that lost the in-memory flag. _is_context_summary_content is now a thin
wrapper over the classifier, keeping existing callers unchanged.

The default `busy_input_mode: interrupt` now redirects the live turn instead
of hard-stopping it and re-queuing a fresh turn, wired consistently across
every first-party surface via the shared core primitive.
- CLI, gateway (busy + PRIORITY paths), TUI (`_handle_busy_submit`), desktop
(`session.redirect` RPC), and ACP call `redirect()` when the agent advertises
`_supports_active_turn_redirect`, and fall back to the proven interrupt +
next-turn queue for older runtimes.
- Redirect is gated to plain text with no attachments: captioned or
attachment-bearing events (including adapters that classify unknown media as
`TEXT`) stay queued so media is never dropped.
- ACP `cancel()` records the interrupted prompt, sets its cancel event, and
hard-stops the agent while holding `runtime_lock`, closing the
cancel-then-correct ordering gap; connection I/O happens after the lock is
released.
- Desktop appends the correction as a real user transcript message so the live
view matches the durable history after reload.
- `/busy` help, onboarding hints, and the new `session.redirect` RPC describe
the redirect behavior; `/stop` remains the hard stop.
- acp_adapter/server.py: rename compact -> compress for context compression command
- tui_gateway/server.py: rename /compact -> /density for display density toggle
- ui-tui/core.ts: rename compact -> density for display density toggle
- Internal config keys (tui_compact) and UI state (ctx.ui.compact) unchanged
Add a runtime_validator callback to generate_title() / auto_title_session()
/ maybe_auto_title(). Callers snapshot the session's model+provider when
spawning the background titler; the validator runs right before the LLM
request and skips it silently when the live runtime no longer matches —
so a stale title request can't reload a model that strict_single_load
already evicted after a user model switch. Fail-open: a raising validator
never disables titling.
Wired at all four call sites (cli, gateway, tui_gateway, acp_adapter).
Surgical reapply of PR #19137 (base was 8k+ commits stale; the original
patch predates the pinned-language prompts, the atomic-write helper, and
the moved TUI/ACP call sites). Original work by @Thatgfsj. Closes#19027.
Concurrent ACP sessions run on a shared ThreadPoolExecutor (max_workers=4).
Each _run_agent mutated the process-global os.environ["HERMES_INTERACTIVE"]
and restored it in finally, so one session's restore could clobber another's
set mid-run — dropping the second session onto the non-interactive
auto-approve path, executing a dangerous command without the approval
callback firing (GHSA-96vc-wcxf-jjff).
Replace the env-var flag with a thread/task-local contextvar in
tools.approval. The two HERMES_INTERACTIVE read sites in approval.py now go
through _is_interactive_cli() (contextvar-first, env fallback for legacy
single-threaded CLI callers). The ACP executor sets the contextvar instead
of os.environ; the existing contextvars.copy_context() wrapper isolates each
session's write.

CI caught 3 ACP test failures (tests/acp/test_server.py,
tests/acp/test_mcp_e2e.py). Root cause: routing ACP's tool-surface rebuild
through the shared refresh_agent_mcp_tools helper (added in the round-2 pass)
broke a deliberate, pre-existing ACP contract:
- the ACP tests assert `agent.tools is <get_tool_definitions return>` (object
identity) and an exact get_tool_definitions(enabled_toolsets=[...],
disabled_toolsets=..., quiet_mode=True) call signature; the shared helper
list()-copies and re-derives differently, breaking identity; and
- the tests use a MagicMock agent whose _tool_snapshot_generation is a mock, so
the new `int < published_gen` generation guard raised TypeError and the whole
ACP refresh silently failed.
ACP already preserves memory-provider tools (its own inject call) and excludes
context_engine, so there was no bug to fix there — only over-reach. Reverted ACP
to its original rebuild. (Same lesson as the gateway path: leave call sites that
carry their own tested contract alone; a reviewer's "inert today, fragile" note
meant leave-it, not change-it.)
Also hardened the generation guard defensively: tolerate a non-int
_tool_snapshot_generation (mock / partially-built agent) instead of throwing
TypeError and silently failing the refresh.
Second review pass (Codex + Hermes subagent). Codex reproduced a real race with
a two-thread harness; both converged on the remaining issues.
- Generation-aware publish (fixes a lost-update race): two refresh callers (the
late-refresh daemon and the between-turns prologue around turn 1) could each
compute a snapshot outside the lock; a SLOWER caller holding an OLDER registry
generation could acquire the publish lock after a newer caller and clobber it,
deleting just-landed tools. refresh_agent_mcp_tools now captures
registry._generation before computing and refuses to publish a stale set;
agent._tool_snapshot_generation tracks the published generation.
- Context-engine routing names (_context_engine_tool_names) are now staged on a
local and published atomically with the snapshot, and only claimed when this
rebuild actually appended the schema — matching agent_init's dedup so a
registry/plugin tool of the same name keeps its own dispatch. (Previously
mutated live, before the publish lock, and on no-change refreshes.)
- CLI /reload-mcp: self.enabled_toolsets is resolved once at startup, so a
server newly ENABLED in config mid-session wasn't picked up (TUI already
re-resolved). Merge now-connected MCP server names into the override (unless
the user pinned all/*), mirroring startup, and keep self.enabled_toolsets in
sync. Closes the CLI/TUI parity hole.
- ACP (acp_adapter/server.py) routed through the shared helper — it was a 5th
sibling rebuild that re-injected memory tools but NOT context-engine tools and
bypassed the atomic/name-diff path (inert today, fragile).
- mcp_startup._resolve_discovery_timeout pulls its default from DEFAULT_CONFIG
(single source of truth) instead of a stale hardcoded 5.0 literal.
- Tests: stale-generation-no-clobber, _skip_mcp_refresh honored, timeout
fallback uses DEFAULT_CONFIG.
Closes#33617. Adds additive _meta.hermes.sessionProvenance to ACP session
surfaces so clients can detect compression-driven internal session rotation
without parsing status text, guessing from token drops, or reading state.db.
Derived on demand from the existing compression chain (parent_session_id /
end_reason) — no new persisted state, no schema change, no ACP protocol change.
ACP session_id stays the stable client handle.
- acp_adapter/provenance.py: derive provenance from SessionDB
- server.py: attach _meta to new/load/resume responses; emit a
session_info_update when the internal head rotates during a prompt
Replace the ACP-local prefix/suffix matcher + helper with a single
startswith() check against INTERRUPT_WAITING_FOR_MODEL_PREFIX, now
defined once in conversation_loop.py where the sentinel is produced.
Keeps the source of truth in one place so the guard cannot drift if
the status string changes. Net -17 LOC in server.py.
Also add lsaether to release.py AUTHOR_MAP.
PR #29119 dropped the 'not streamed_message' guard unconditionally so
that plugin-transformed responses (transform_llm_output hook) would
reach ACP clients. That regressed test_prompt_does_not_duplicate_streamed_final_message:
when no transform happened, the streamed text was re-sent as a duplicate
final delivery.
Tighten the condition to mirror the gateway side: deliver after streaming
only when response_transformed=True. Otherwise keep the old guard.
Adds test_prompt_delivers_transformed_response_after_streaming so the
transformed path stays covered.
When streaming is active, streamed_message=True skipped the final_response
update, causing plugin hooks like transform_llm_output to be silently
invisible. Remove the `not streamed_message` guard so the final response
(possibly transformed by plugins) is always delivered to the ACP client.
Salvages #23208 by @awizemann. Tracks which chat session created a
kanban task so clients can render a per-session board without falling
back to tenant + time-window heuristics.
- Schema: tasks gains nullable session_id TEXT column with index
(additive migration in _migrate_add_optional_columns).
- ACP: server.py exposes the originating session id via HERMES_SESSION_ID
with save/restore around the agent loop.
- Tool: kanban_create reads HERMES_SESSION_ID (with explicit override).
- CLI: 'hermes kanban list --session <id>' filter; JSON output exposes
session_id.
Follow-up to #26543. The sessions table does not have an updated_at
column (see hermes_state.py — only started_at/ended_at), so
row.get('updated_at') always returned None and the str() coercion was
dead code. Use datetime.now(UTC).isoformat() instead, which reflects
exactly what the field means here: 'the title was refreshed at this
moment'. Drop the dead coercion.
Switches `_replay_session_history` from `loop.call_soon`-deferred (after the
`LoadSessionResponse` is written) to `await`-inline (before the response is
constructed) for both `session/load` and `session/resume`. Adds defensive
try/except around the awaited call so a replay helper crash still yields a
successful load response — partial transcripts are acceptable, total
load failure is not.
The deferral was added on May 2 in commit 19854c7cd with the rationale "Zed
only attaches streamed transcript/tool updates once the load/resume response
has completed." That justification was incorrect:
- Zed's current ACP integration (zed-industries/zed
crates/agent_servers/src/acp.rs) explicitly registers the session-update
routing entry BEFORE awaiting the loadSession RPC, with the comment:
"so that any session/update notifications that arrive during the call
(e.g. history replay during session/load) can find the thread."
- Every other reference ACP server (Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, Pi, agentao)
replays history BEFORE responding to the load request.
- The ACP spec wording ("Stream the entire conversation history back to the
client via notifications") and the natural JSON-RPC reading both mean
"during the request's lifetime", not "after the response resolves".
Empirical reproduction (reported by Biraj on @agentclientprotocol/sdk
v0.21.1): the same custom ACP client works correctly against Codex /
Claude Code / OpenCode / Pi but receives 0 notifications from Hermes
because it measures the per-call notification count at the moment
`loadSession` resolves — which on Hermes was before the `call_soon`-
scheduled replay coroutine had a chance to run.
Changes:
- `acp_adapter/server.py`: remove `_schedule_history_replay`; both
`load_session` and `resume_session` now `await self._replay_session_history`
before returning, wrapped in try/except that logs and continues on
helper exceptions.
- `tests/acp/test_server.py`: replace the single
`test_load_session_schedules_history_replay_after_response`
(which encoded the now-incorrect post-response ordering) with two tests
asserting `events == ["replay", "returned"]` for load and resume.
Add two regression tests confirming that a replay helper raising still
yields a `LoadSessionResponse` / `ResumeSessionResponse` rather than
propagating the exception out as a JSON-RPC error.
Result: 240 ACP tests pass (was 238), ruff clean. Verified end-to-end:
biraj's synchronous notification-counter pattern now sees 6 notifications
during `loadSession` for a 5-message session, matching all other reference
ACP servers.
The `_fenced_text` change in `acp_adapter/tools.py` from the same May 2
commit is orthogonal and intentionally left intact — it's a separate,
still-valid fix for Zed's pipe-as-table rendering.
Refs #12285. Follows up #26943 (which added thought-chunk replay but kept
the deferral).
Persisted assistant `reasoning_content` / `reasoning` fields are now emitted
as ACP `agent_thought_chunk` notifications during `_replay_session_history`,
so editor clients (Zed, etc.) rebuild collapsed Thinking panes when the user
re-opens a session that used a thinking model.
Ordering matches live streaming: thought precedes message text within the
same assistant turn, mirroring how `reasoning_callback` deltas arrive before
`stream_delta_callback` deltas in `events.py::make_thinking_cb` /
`make_message_cb`.
Behavior on non-reasoning histories is unchanged; the replay loop's existing
text / tool_call / tool_call_update / plan emission is preserved bit-for-bit.
Closes#12285.

Extends PR #21400's resource inlining with image-specific handling: ACP
resource_link and embedded blob resources with an image/* mime (or image
file suffix when mime is missing) now emit an OpenAI image_url part
with a base64 data URL, so vision models actually see the image
instead of a [Binary file omitted] note. Non-image resources keep the
existing text-inlining behavior.
Adds 3 tests: local PNG via resource_link, JPEG mime inferred from
suffix when client omits mimeType, and embedded blob PNG.
The user-visible /compress banner and the post-compression last_prompt_tokens
writeback both counted only the raw message transcript (chars/4). With a 15KB
system prompt and 30 tool schemas (~26KB), a 4-message transcript that looks
like ~45 tokens to the transcript-only estimator is really ~10.5K tokens of
request pressure — a 234x gap.
Two user-facing consequences:
- Banner shows 'Compressing … (~45 tokens)…' while compression is actually
firing on 10K+ tokens of real pressure, confusing users about why
compression triggered (reported by @codecovenant on X; #6217).
- Post-compression last_prompt_tokens writeback omits tool schemas, so the
next should_compress() check compares real usage against a stale
underestimate — compression triggers late, potentially past the model's
context limit on small-context models (#14695).
Swap estimate_messages_tokens_rough() for estimate_request_tokens_rough()
at every user-visible banner and at the post-compression writeback.
estimate_request_tokens_rough() already existed for exactly this purpose
and includes system prompt + tool schemas.
Touched call sites:
- run_agent.py: post-compression last_prompt_tokens writeback, post-tool
call should_compress() fallback when provider usage is missing

Left intentionally alone:
- Session-hygiene fallback and the 'no agent' /status path in gateway/run.py
— no agent instance is in scope to query for system prompt/tools, and the
existing 30-50% overestimate wobble on hygiene is safety-accepted.
- Verbose-mode 'Request size' logging — informational only, already counts
system prompt via api_messages[0].
Also relabels the feedback line from 'Rough transcript estimate' to
'Approx request size' so the metric label matches what it actually measures.

Closes#14695Closes#6217
When a user types /steer <text> on an ACP session that isn't actively
running a turn (and there's no interrupted-prompt salvage available),
_cmd_steer silently appended to state.queued_prompts and replied
"No active turn — queued for the next turn". That looks identical to
/queue output even though the user never typed /queue — @EddyLeeKhane
reported this as "/steer never works, gets queued instead".
Rewrite the payload to a plain user prompt before the slash-intercept
fires, matching the gateway's idle-/steer fallthrough in
gateway/run.py ~L4898.
