provider/openai:
- Fix doubled tool call args (argsComplete flag): Ollama sends complete
args in the first streaming chunk then repeats them as delta, causing
doubled JSON and 400 errors in elfs
- Handle fs: prefix (gemma4 uses fs:grep instead of fs.grep)
- Add Reasoning field support for Ollama thinking output
cmd/gnoma:
- Early TTY detection so logger is created with correct destination
before any component gets a reference to it (fixes slog WARN bleed
into TUI textarea)
permission:
- Exempt spawn_elfs and agent tools from safety scanner: elf prompt
text may legitimately mention .env/.ssh/credentials patterns and
should not be blocked
tui/app:
- /init retry chain: no-tool-calls → spawn_elfs nudge → write nudge
(ask for plain text output) → TUI fallback write from streamBuf
- looksLikeAgentsMD + extractMarkdownDoc: validate and clean fallback
content before writing (reject refusals, strip narrative preambles)
- Collapse thinking output to 3 lines; ctrl+o to expand (live stream
and committed messages)
- Stream-level filter for model pseudo-tool-call blocks: suppresses
<<tool_code>>...</tool_code>> and <<function_call>>...<tool_call|>
from entering streamBuf across chunk boundaries
- sanitizeAssistantText regex covers both block formats
- Reset streamFilterClose at every turn start
Gap 11 (M6): Fixed context prefix
- Window.PrefixMessages stores immutable docs (CLAUDE.md, .gnoma/GNOMA.md)
- Prefix stripped before compaction, prepended after — survives all compaction
- AllMessages() returns prefix + history for provider requests
- main.go loads CLAUDE.md and .gnoma/GNOMA.md at startup as prefix
Gap 12 (M6): Deferred tool loading
- DeferrableTool optional interface: ShouldDefer() bool
- buildRequest() skips deferred tools until activated
- Tools auto-activate on first model request (activatedTools map)
- agent + spawn_elfs marked as deferrable (large schemas, rarely needed early)
- Saves ~800 tokens per deferred tool per request
Gap 13 (M6): Pre/post compact hooks
- OnPreCompact/OnPostCompact callbacks in WindowConfig
- Called in doCompact() (shared by CompactIfNeeded + ForceCompact)
- M8 hooks system will extend these to full protocol
Engine retries transient errors (429, 5xx) up to 4 times with
1s/2s/4s/8s backoff. Respects Retry-After header from provider.
Batch tool staggers elf spawns by 300ms to avoid rate limit bursts
when all elfs hit the API simultaneously (Mistral's 1 req/s limit).
internal/elf/:
- BackgroundElf: runs on own goroutine with independent engine,
history, and provider. No shared mutable state.
- Manager: spawns elfs via router.Select() (picks best arm per
task type), tracks lifecycle, WaitAll(), CancelAll(), Cleanup().
internal/tool/agent/:
- Agent tool: LLM can call 'agent' to spawn sub-agents.
Supports task_type hint for routing, wait/background mode.
5-minute timeout, context cancellation propagated.
Concurrent tool execution:
- Read-only tools (fs.read, fs.grep, fs.glob, etc.) execute in
parallel via goroutines.
- Write tools (bash, fs.write, fs.edit) execute sequentially.
- Partition by tool.IsReadOnly().
TUI: /elf command explains how to use sub-agents.
5 elf tests. Exit criteria: parent spawns 3 background elfs on
different providers, collects and synthesizes results.
SummarizeStrategy: calls LLM to condense older messages into a
summary, preserving key decisions, file changes, tool outputs.
Falls back to truncation on failure. Keeps 6 recent messages.
Tool result persistence: outputs >50K chars saved to disk at
.gnoma/sessions/tool-results/{id}.txt with 2K preview inline.
TUI: /compact command for manual compaction, /clear now resets
engine history. Summarize strategy used by default (with
truncation fallback).
Tools now go through permission.Checker before executing:
- plan mode: denies all writes (fs.write, bash), allows reads
- bypass mode: allows all (deny rules still enforced)
- default mode: prompts user (pipe: stdin prompt, TUI: auto-approve for now)
- accept_edits: auto-allows file ops, prompts for bash
- deny mode: denies all without allow rules
CLI flags: --permission <mode>, --incognito
Pipe mode: console Y/N prompt on stderr
TUI mode: auto-approve (proper overlay TODO)
Verified: plan mode correctly blocks fs.write, model sees error.
- Fixed: chat content no longer overflows past allocated height.
Lines are measured for physical width and hard-truncated to
exactly the chat area height. Input + status bar always visible.
- Header scrolls with chat (not pinned), only input/status fixed
- Git branch in status bar (green, via git rev-parse)
- Alt screen mode — terminal scrollback disabled
- Mouse wheel + PgUp/PgDown scroll within TUI
- New EventToolResult: tool output as dimmed indented block
- Separator lines above/below input, no status bar backgrounds
