Summary

问题(#311):委派方没有办法在子 Thread 结束时被唤醒。thread wait 会占住委派方自己的 Turn;轮询则白白消耗 Turn。

改动:新增 thread watch——注册后立即返回,被观察的 Thread 停下(或到期)时,Host 向被通知的 Thread 发送一次消息。

  • 入口:thread watch <thread> [--notify <thread>] [--timeout-ms <n>]、delegate start ... --watch true、thread send ... --watch true、thread watches(列出未送达的 watch)。delegate start / thread send 先完成自己的动作,watch 注册失败只在返回的 watch 字段里报告 notRegistered,不让命令失败。
  • 一次性、只看 Thread 是否停下:中途换了 Turn(例如 Desktop“调整方向”的停止后重发)不会误报。同一对 Thread 只保留一个 watch。
  • 结果:completed / failed / interrupted / timedOut / unreadable(连续 60 秒读取失败)/ notFound。注册时已是终态则返回 alreadyTerminal,不注册。默认超时 29 分钟。
  • 送达:通过普通 send 在被通知 Thread 启动一个新 Turn。对方忙时保持待送达并重试,最长 6 小时,THREAD_BUSY 从不当作已送达;同一 Thread 同时到期的多条通知合并成一条。超过 6 小时或对方不存在/只读时标记 undeliverable。
  • 被通知方:显式 --notify → Host 提供的 CODEXHOST_THREAD_ID → 原生 Codex 时推断为“除被观察者外唯一有活跃 Turn 的 Thread”,否则返回 PARENT_THREAD_AMBIGUOUS。
  • 通知只报告执行状态和链接,不读取会话内容,接收方自行 thread read。
  • 实现:新增 delegation-watch.ts(只依赖公开的 read/send,每 2 秒轮询),由 DelegationControlRegistry 持有;控制服务新增 /v1/thread/watch、/v1/thread/watches。协调器的 read、委派状态和 send 忙碌判断改用 Host 已有的忙碌事实(running || ExternalTurnSteering.hasPending),避免停止后重发的空档被读成 interrupted。委派 Skill 升到版本 8,只加入 watch 说明。文档:docs/architecture/thread-watch.md。
  • 完全可选:不使用时 delegate start、thread send 和 Host 行为不变。

限制:watch 只保存在 Host Runtime 内存里,重启后丢失;不能取消;推断调用方要求只有一个其他活跃 Turn。

#311

依赖 #402 (Harness 进程挂掉后读取 Host 已记录的最终 Turn):本分支建在它之上,这样 Harness 崩溃时 watch 能及时以 failed 通知,而不是等到超时。在那个 PR 合入之前,本 PR 的差异里会多出它的那一个提交。

Test plan

基线 upstream/main@4052cf49(v0.10.2)+ PR D,macOS arm64,Node 24.21.0,npm ci。

  • 新增测试覆盖 watch 服务(轮询、终态、超时、unreadable、忙碌重试、合并送达、undeliverable)、CLI、控制服务与注册表、协调器忙碌判断。
  • 反向验证:忙碌事实改回只看 running → “停止后重发空档读成 running”的测试失败;亚分钟超时文案改回分钟 → 测试失败(after 0 min)。watch 循环的 .catch 是防御性的,去掉后现有测试仍通过。
  • npm run typecheck、node tools/check-boundaries.mjs、改动文件的 ESLint / Prettier、git diff --check:通过。
  • packages/host-runtime 全部测试:675 通过,5 跳过(先执行了 npm run build:plugins)。
  • 在我们的 fork 上实测:Cursor 子任务运行中被停止并重发(换了一个 Turn),父任务没有收到误报,只在新 Turn 结束时收到一次 completed 通知。

After a Harness process dies, the Adapter completes the active Turn as failed
and the Delegation is recorded as failed, but 'thread read' and 'thread wait'
kept failing with 'External Thread read failed' because refreshing native
history from the dead Harness is impossible. Report the terminal Turn the Host
already projected instead, so a known failure stays observable. Reproduced by
killing the managed dsh server during a delegated Turn.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add an opt-in 'codexhost thread watch' that notifies one Thread, once, when
another Thread stops or the watch times out (default 29 min). The service uses
only the public read and send operations, so it is independent of Harness,
Desktop and delegation lineage. A busy notified Thread is retried and
THREAD_BUSY is never treated as delivered; notifications due together are
merged into one Turn. Watches live in Host Runtime memory.

'delegate start --watch true' registers the watch for the Host-resolved parent,
and 'thread send --watch true' watches that Thread until it stops. A caller
without a Host-provided Thread identity (native Codex) is inferred as the only
other Thread with an active Turn, otherwise --notify is required.

Delegation read, stored status and send use the Host's busy fact (running or a
pending steer replacement), so the gap between a stopped Turn and its
replacement reads as running instead of interrupted.

Changes

Thread watch 通知

Layer / File(s) Summary
Watch 合约与轮询投递
packages/host-runtime/src/delegation-types.ts, packages/host-runtime/src/delegation-watch.ts, packages/host-runtime/test/delegation-watch.test.ts, packages/host-runtime/test/app-server-host.projection-2.test.ts
新增 watch 请求和结果类型,以及注册校验、轮询、通知合并、投递重试和关闭逻辑。测试覆盖终态、超时、读取失败、重复注册及投递异常。
活动线程状态与终态投影

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 5c470

Watch notifications can arrive after the stated delivery limit or be abandoned when an external session is temporarily unable to start a Turn. Fix these delivery behaviors before merging.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 5c470

The new watch feature is optional and uses the existing local authentication boundary, but registrations can accumulate ongoing work across Host sessions without an active-watch limit or cancellation. That creates a plausible availability risk for the shared runtime.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · inferred: Distinct watches have no active-state limit or cancellation path. A holder of the runtime token can accumulate long-lived polling and eventual delivery work in the registry shared by Host sessions, potentially degrading notification and thread-control availability beyond the initiating Turn.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — A token holder can register work affecting any readable Thread pair routed by the shared registry. The principal exposure added by this PR is continued Host-wide polling and later delivery, not a demonstrated increase in direct thread-send authority.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — A caller able to use the runtime token could register many distinct, long-lived watches. Each remains in shared memory and is read by the serial polling loop; only undeliverable records have a count-based trim. This is an availability concern, not a verified unauthorized-access path.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Invalid bearer tokens are rejected before route dispatch, and recipient sends retain registry ownership routing. These controls limit network reach and ambiguous session routing, but they do not bound the amount of watch work an authorized caller can leave behind.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Busy or explicitly not-started sends remain retryable; failures with an unknown start outcome become undeliverable rather than risking a duplicate Turn. Closing clears queued state, although the source does not establish cancellation of a send already in flight.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Bound active watches and polling work per runtime or caller, and provide a way to remove an unwanted registration. Define whether an in-flight notification may complete during shutdown.

A native Codex thread/read that returned any RPC error was reported as
THREAD_NOT_FOUND, so a single transient failure made a watch notify
"no longer exists" at once, bypassing the 60 s unreadable grace. Only the
app-server's missing-Thread messages now map to THREAD_NOT_FOUND; other
errors and malformed responses are INTERNAL_ERROR.

Delivery treated every DELEGATION_FAILED as permanent, although resume and
turn/start failures reject the send before any Turn starts. Now:
- missing or read-only notified Thread: undeliverable at once;
- structured rejection: retried within the delivery window;
- unstructured failure such as a timeout: a Turn may already have started,
  so it is marked undeliverable instead of risking a duplicate wake-up.

Document the Stop behavior and that the shared busy fix also affects plain
thread read/wait/send.

不需要修改此处的错误分类。

外部路径的结构化 HarnessResult 失败会先清理活动 Turn 状态。原生 Runtime 的传输失败不会包装为 DelegationControlError,因此会按 "unknown" 处理。仓库没有证据表明原生 turn/start 的明确 RPC 错误会在 Turn 已启动后返回。重复投递的前提未成立。

const message = error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error);
for (const watch of pending) {
// A rejected send is retried and never treated as delivered.

A structured send error is not proof that nothing started: a Harness broker
request that times out is reported as a failed start and wrapped as
DELEGATION_FAILED, although the native Harness may already have accepted the
Turn. The Host has cleared its busy state by then, so a retry would start a
second Turn in the notified Thread.

Delivery now retries only on THREAD_BUSY, which is decided before any start,
or on an error marked notStarted; a native Codex turn/start that app-server
answers with an error carries that mark. Every other failure is an unknown
outcome and is left undeliverable with the reason.

Also remove the duplicated Stop section and restore the truncated Adapter
contract bullet in thread-watch.md, and drop the prompt-cache rationale for
the 29-minute default.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Drop `thread send --watch`: `delegate start --watch` covers the main
  flow, and `thread watch` can follow a send. Removes the combined flags,
  the partial-success branch for send, and their validation.
- Drop the watch-specific caller inference. `delegate start --watch` uses
  the parent the delegation already resolved; `thread watch` uses
  --notify or CODEXHOST_THREAD_ID and otherwise asks for --notify.
- Each registration is delivered. Re-watching a pair while its earlier
  notification is still pending watches the next stop instead of
  replacing it; terminal notifications name their Turn so both can be
  told apart.
- Drop the prompt-cache rationale for the 29 min default.
- Fix the duplicated section and stray fragment in thread-watch.md.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The cross-harness-delegation spec says the Host MUST NOT wake the parent
Agent or create an autonomous Turn when a child reaches a terminal state,
which thread watch and delegate start --watch now do.

Add the add-thread-watch-notification change: modify that requirement so an
explicitly registered watch is the only exception, and add a requirement for
the watch itself covering its outcomes, busy and unknown-outcome delivery,
notified-Thread identity, and its limits: in-memory only and lost on restart,
no cancellation, and a user Stop of the notified Thread does not revoke it.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

保留外部 Harness 的明确“未启动”信息。

当通知发送到仍在等待 Native Session identity 的外部 Thread 时,broker 会在调用 Harness adapter 前返回 sessionBusy。当前 #startDelegatedExternalTurn 只抛出普通 Error,而 HarnessDelegationCoordinator.#send 又将它包装成没有 notStarted 的 DELEGATION_FAILED。#deliver 随后将结果分类为 unknown,直接把 watch 标记为 undeliverable,不会重试。

只为 broker 的 harnessBroker.identity 前置拒绝设置 notStarted。不要为所有 !result.ok 设置该标记,因为 broker client 也会把请求超时转换为 ok: false,此时 Turn 可能已经启动。修正应位于外部启动错误边界,而不是在 #deliver 中放宽所有 DELEGATION_FAILED。

## 模型

- 只有两个 Thread:被观察的 Thread 和被通知的 Thread。与委派的父子关系无关,任意两个不同的 Thread 都可以。
- 一次性。被观察 Thread 停下,或 watch 到期,哪个先到就通知一次,随后 watch 消失。换了一个仍在运行的 Turn 不会通知。没有取消或退订;想继续等就再注册一次。

区分观察结束与记录删除。

如果通知仍待投递,watch 不会立即消失;无法投递时,thread watches 仍会列出该记录。本文件第 11、46 行也描述了这些状态。请将“随后 watch 消失”改为“观察结束;送达成功后删除记录,未送达时保留投递状态”。

Review comment at @docs/architecture/thread-watch.md at line 10:
Update the lifecycle description near “被观察 Thread 停下” to distinguish observation
ending from record deletion: after observation ends, delete the watch record
only once notification delivery succeeds; if delivery fails, retain the delivery
state. Keep the documented one-time notification behavior unchanged.

在断言失败时始终关闭 fixture。

当前测试直接在末尾调用 stopFixture(fixture)。如果前面的断言失败,清理不会执行。请使用 try/finally,以确保 Host 进程和临时目录被清理。

修复建议
-    await fixture.ready;
-    ...
-    await stopFixture(fixture);
+    try {
+      await fixture.ready;
+      ...
+    } finally {
+      await stopFixture(fixture);

501 - 532:
Wrap the setup, assertions, and interaction in “marks a native Codex turn/start
refusal as not started” in a try/finally, and call stopFixture(fixture) in the
finally block so cleanup runs even if an assertion or earlier step fails.
