Why: Real-run before/after evidence (phase01 card) showed later turns never
re-read the uploaded source (0 original reads in plan-followup) because the
attachment only existed in the current turn's injection and the context window
hard default was 32000 chars - a 25k-char transcript tripped the clear-on-first
request, replacing old tool results with a pointer the model has no tool to
follow. MiniMax is an interleaved-thinking model whose docs require <think>
blocks in assistant history; dropping them degrades later turns.
Evidence: SELF - new tests TestThinkReplayWrapsAssistantHistory,
TestContextWindowScalesFromTokens, TestThinkReplayEnabled,
TestPersistInputTextsAndListWorkspaceInputs; go test ./internal/... passes;
live before/after comparison on the golden task set recorded on the phase02
task card per the new policy clause.
Impact: models.chat.contextWindow/outputReserve/contextBuffer (tokens,
defaults 128k/16k/4k) drive the in-run clear threshold, converted to chars;
cleared tool results spill to <sandbox>/.agent/results with readable paths;
attachment parse text persists as inputs/<name>.md and the env section lists
all workspace inputs every turn; context.thinkReplay (auto|on|off, auto =
MiniMax) replays thinking blocks into request-side assistant history only.
Why: Q3 WP2 retires the SpawnSubagent-compression execution path: all
WorkflowDef execution now goes through the wfcompile compiled graph, and
squad steps run on the agent-native kernel backend instead of the
agent-system step backend.
Evidence: runtime-level P4 parity tests (workflow_compiled_test.go):
registered branch lookup/errors, planned branch confirmation gate +
dynamic 8-step cap fail-closed before any HITL, model script switch
default-off, missing-slot HITL collection with compile-time rendering,
judge stream routed to the configured lightweight model (nil = fail-closed
verifier-unavailable). squadadapter TestOrchestrateRunsOnKernelStub:
four-phase skeleton runs end-to-end on the kernel stub (write_file
materialization, seeded skills, exec allowlist). server TestSquadOrchestration
reworked: kernel steps run in-process (no subagent child runs). Full
backend suite green; wfcompile/squadadapter/runmgr green with -race
(pre-existing llm_test fake race on main recorded as debt, CI does not
gate -race).
Impact: DELETED runtime/workflow.go + workflow_script.go (legacy step loop,
critic, script host) and their tests; squadadapter stepBackend
'agent-system' + profileForRole deleted; BuildBackends exported and
registers only agent-native; Orchestrate DefaultBackend -> agent-native;
builtin roles declare agent-native with write_file added to allowlists and
writer run_shell -> run_command (kernel tool name); runmgr default workflow
runner -> CompiledWorkflowRunner; mock #workflow demo runs compiled
(host-only steps). Model script branch keeps the single script-level
confirmation (no extra plan confirmation), matching legacy.
