Detached background delegation batches (_batch_runner) no longer honor
the foreground parent's interrupt flag — a busy-submit interrupt in the
TUI/desktop previously fabricated 'interrupted' results for background
children that should outlive the turn. Explicit cancellation still works
via _batch_interrupt.
Rebased onto current main from PR #65040; both interrupt-suppression
regression tests aligned with the current _session test helper.
Original work by @AtakanGs in #65040.
The desktop's queue promises "run this AFTER the current turn", but the
promise broke on a race the user can't see: a drain that fired when the
client observed idle while the server was still unwinding the turn landed
in _handle_busy_submit, which applied busy_input_mode — redirecting or
interrupting the live turn with text the user explicitly queued. That's
why force-sending the queue felt like a dice roll: the same gesture
steered, interrupted, or queued depending on a millisecond settle race.
prompt.submit now carries queued:true on every fromQueue drain (composer
auto-drain, send-now, background drain), and the gateway's busy path
honors it by forcing queue semantics — never steer, never redirect,
never interrupt. Lose the race and the text simply waits its turn, which
is what queueing meant all along.
Covered on both sides: a gateway test proving a queued drain cannot touch
redirect/steer/interrupt on the live agent, and the desktop drain tests
now assert the flag rides every prompt.submit shape (direct, background,
resume-retry).
An accepted mid-turn redirect wrote its correction over inflight_turn["user"].
That field is the only user text session.resume can replay, so the prompt that
started the turn was gone the moment the user typed again while it ran. On the
next resume the client rebuilt the thread without it.
Record corrections in their own list instead, alongside the prompt. Renamed
_replace_inflight_user to _record_inflight_correction now that it appends.
_start_inflight_turn rebuilds the dict wholesale, so corrections cannot leak
into a later turn.
Update the gateway's live turn projection after an accepted correction so a warm session resume does not add the stale original prompt beside the persisted correction.
Cover the inference-time correction path end to end and assert both redirect entry points refresh the live user text.
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.
A prompt sent while a turn was in flight got rejected with 4009 "session busy",
which pushed clients (the desktop app) into a deadline-bounded busy-retry. When
turn teardown outlived that deadline — e.g. the user hits stop while a slow,
non-interruptible tool (web_search, read_file, an MCP call) is mid-flight, since
the sequential executor only checks the interrupt flag between tools — the
resubmitted message was silently dropped: "it just doesn't listen".
Wire the previously-dead display.busy_input_mode config into prompt.submit:
instead of rejecting, apply the policy and queue the message to run as the next
turn (drained in run()'s tail, ahead of goal/notification follow-ups). Modes:
interrupt (default) interrupts the live turn so it winds down promptly then runs
the queued message; queue runs it after the current turn finishes; steer injects
it into the live turn when accepted, else queues. The queued slot pins the
sender's transport and losslessly merges a second arrival. No client deadline,
no dropped sends.
