Closes: # 630

Description

This PR completes the incremental transcript-delivery work proposed in #630 and builds on the state-push throttling from #1078.

Throttling reduced how often large task state was sent, but every update and hydration could still serialize and transfer the complete transcript. For long-running tasks, that payload remains large enough to exhaust the webview renderer and produce a gray screen.

The implementation introduces a dedicated, task-scoped transcript transport:

  • Sends new and changed transcript entries as sequenced append/update deltas instead of replacing the full clineMessages array.
  • Removes transcript data from generic extension-state messages so unrelated state updates cannot repeatedly retransmit or overwrite chat history.
  • Hydrates and resynchronizes transcripts using atomic snapshots split into chunks of 200 messages, avoiding one unbounded initial-load payload.
  • Serializes transcript posts through a provider-level queue and invalidates stale queued work when the focused task changes.
  • Uses task IDs and monotonic per-task sequence numbers to reject stale, duplicate, out-of-order, or background-task messages.
  • Detects sequence gaps, malformed or incomplete snapshots, and updates for unknown messages, then requests one authoritative resync from the extension host.
  • Routes initial webview launch, task switches, checkpoint rewinds, transcript overwrites, and legacy unsequenced updates through the snapshot/resync path.
  • Updates task, provider, message-handler, context, and shared test helpers to use the new protocol while preserving message persistence and event ordering.

The steady-state payload is now O(1) per append/update rather than O(N) in transcript length. Full recovery remains available, but it is transferred in bounded chunks and applied only after the complete snapshot has been validated.

This aligns with Zoo Code's Reliability First roadmap goal by keeping long-running chats responsive and making transcript synchronization deterministic and self-healing across webview reloads and task switches.

Reviewer focus areas:

  • Ordering and invalidation behavior when task changes race with queued transcript posts.
  • Sequence-gap recovery and atomic snapshot application in the webview.
  • Transcript/message event ordering relied on by task consumers.

Test Procedure

Current published head: 190b186fdbf60155f4e6272af3a1c06ecbb3369e. Published with the disclosed mutation-budget blocker; cap unchanged; not merged.

The head-specific validation/status comment is the current source of truth. Full local checks passed on byte-identical reviewed source: 12,355 Vitest tests passed / 40 skipped plus one Node test file, 10/10 fresh test tasks, 11/11 fresh type and lint tasks each, all seven models, and 32/32 fresh mutation-runner tests. No local E2E/visual run is claimed.

Overall mutation validation is blocked, not green. Fresh canonical full-PR-diff local gating against base 01c7357 generated 434 extension mutants versus the unchanged 400 cap. The final 861-test baseline passed, but extension mutation execution did not start; killed/survived/no-coverage/timeout/error counts are unavailable, not zero. Webview passed with 391 valid mutants all killed and nine pre-existing ignored; that is not an overall gate pass. No cap/configuration/exclusion was relaxed.

The four source findings are fixed and resolved independently of overall merge readiness. New-head executable CI and review acceptance are tracked separately in the status comment. GitHub generated merge result 951533e with advanced main parent ebcd1a0; do not confuse that integration result or its CI with the locally audited base/head. No merge action was performed.

Historical validation - superseded for the current head

The following retained evidence applies only to the old head; its green mutation result does not validate 190b186.

Historical validated head: f7d2abb, based on 01c7357. These are local results; remote CI status is reported by the checks on this PR.

  • Run the test, type-check, and lint tasks in the workspace scripts. All 10 test tasks passed, including fresh runs of 8,412 extension tests and 1,955 webview tests; unchanged package test tasks used their existing cache. All 11 type-check tasks and all 11 lint tasks passed.
  • Run the aggregate model checker. All seven models passed. The production-backed transcript model explores 32,591 states and 48,094 transitions, reaches all 16 actions and 14 landmarks, and detects all 12 injected faults. Its architecture note describes the bounds and limitations.
  • Run the changed-code mutation gate against the base and head above. Extension: 358 valid mutants, 356 killed, two timeouts within the existing allowance, zero surviving or uncovered. Webview: 343 valid mutants, all killed, zero timeouts, surviving, or uncovered. No new exclusions or relaxed thresholds. The local Windows launch adapter preserved CI's selectors, related-test discovery, configuration, budgets, and evaluator.
  • Run suppression-pruning ESLint for changed source and test files. All passed; the suppression ledger is unchanged.

Focused regressions cover queue invalidation while physical sends are held, exactly-once caller settlement, captured nested message contents, snapshot-before-resume ordering, immediate streaming updates, final-message ordering, timestamp-index maintenance, exact chunk payloads, and atomic timeout recovery. The final focused run passed 360 tests.

Manual verification for reviewers (not claimed as completed by the automated runs):

  • Open or restore a task with a large transcript.
  • Confirm the transcript appears after chunked hydration and the panel remains responsive.
  • Continue the task and verify new and streaming messages appear once, in order, without full transcript replacement.
  • Switch rapidly between tasks and confirm messages from the previous task do not appear in the focused task.
  • Restore a checkpoint or edit/delete history and verify the transcript is replaced by one complete, ordered snapshot.
  • Reload the webview and confirm the active task transcript reconstructs without duplication or a gray screen.

Pre-Submission Checklist

  • Issue Linked: This PR is linked to an approved GitHub Issue (see "Related GitHub Issue" above).
  • Scope: My changes are focused on the linked issue (one major feature/fix per PR).
  • Self-Review: I have performed a thorough self-review of my code.
  • Testing: New and/or updated tests have been added to cover my changes (if applicable).
  • Visual Snapshot (UI changes only): Not applicable. This changes transcript transport and synchronization behavior, not a static rendered UI state.
  • Documentation Impact: I have considered if my changes require documentation updates (see "Documentation Updates" section below).
  • Contribution Guidelines: I have read and agree to the Contributor Guidelines.

Documentation Updates

Does this PR necessitate updates to user-facing documentation?

  • No documentation updates are required.
  • Yes, documentation updates are required. (Please describe what needs to be updated or link to a PR in the docs repository).

Additional Notes

  • This PR addresses transcript transport cost and synchronization. It does not compact the persisted ui_messages.json representation or remove large fields from individual messages; those are complementary storage concerns outside this issue's scope.
  • Generic state messages intentionally remain metadata-only. Transcript snapshots are assembled off-state and committed atomically after validation, so partially received snapshots never replace the visible conversation.
  • No changeset or changelog entry is included, per repository policy.
  • AI assistance materially contributed to implementation and PR preparation. I reviewed and understand the meaningful changes and verified them with the tests and checks listed above.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 1dba3

The transcript transport now republishes restored checkpoint metadata, invalidates stale task instances, captures snapshot payloads with their sequence, and resynchronizes hydrated history before replay. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains.

Full details: Regression Evidence

Explanation

The changed Task transport paths still omit two focused negative cases. startTask() now awaits postClineMessagesSnapshot() before say(), but Task.spec.ts covers only successful snapshot delivery and an unavailable provider; it does not reject the snapshot and verify that startup stops before prompting. updateClineMessage() now awaits postClineMessageUpdated() for complete messages, but the only direct provider-rejection test covers the debounced partial branch. The caller tests replace updateClineMessage() itself, so they do not cover this changed complete-message failure path.

Resolution

Add focused Task.spec.ts tests at the Task layer. First, make postClineMessagesSnapshot reject in startTask() and assert that the rejection propagates and say() and initiateTaskLoop() are not called. Second, make postClineMessageUpdated reject for a non-partial message passed to updateClineMessage() and assert the intended rejection/event behavior. Keep the existing partial-update rejection test.

Full details: Lifecycle Resource Cleanup

Explanation

Changed task-switch paths duplicate transcript-scope synchronization. addClineToStack() calls publishFocusedTaskScope() and then syncFocusedTaskToWebview(), which calls publishFocusedTaskScope() again. removeClineFromStack() does the same around task abort: it publishes and invalidates once before abortTask(true), then syncFocusedTaskToWebview() publishes and invalidates again after cancellation. Each repetition posts a second identical clineMessagesFocus message and can discard valid replacement-task transport work before rebuilding another snapshot. This is a concrete duplicate-work path introduced by the PR.

Resolution

Publish the focus scope once per task transition. Pass the generation returned by the early publishFocusedTaskScope() into syncFocusedTaskToWebview(), or add an option that tells syncFocusedTaskToWebview() to reuse the already-published generation. Keep the early publication before abort or preparation, then perform the state post and snapshot without a second focus publication or transport invalidation.

Call currentCline.overwriteClineMessages(currentCline.clineMessages) after reattaching checkpoints in both delete and edit flows.

Add a test for the failed-recovery path.

This test proves that a single gap produces one resync request. It does not cover what happens after the resync answer fails or never arrives. That is the discriminating case for the resyncPendingRef guard flagged in webview-ui/src/context/ExtensionStateContext.tsx Lines 337-348.

Add a case that requests a resync, then feeds an invalid snapshot for the same task (for example a chunk whose snapshotStartIndex does not match), then dispatches a further contiguous delta. Assert that the context either recovers or issues a second resync request.

As per path instructions: "For regressions, add the test at the lowest layer that would have failed".

Prune clineMessagesSeqByTaskId when a task is removed or deleted.

The map gains one entry per task id and never loses one. A long editor session that opens many tasks keeps every entry for the lifetime of the provider. The entries are small, so this is growth rather than a leak of transcript data, but the PR targets memory growth in this exact path.

Delete the entry in removeClineFromStack() and deleteTaskWithId(), or store the sequence on the focused task instead of a provider-level map.

Update on the long term testing:

  • On a 'stress-test' task (Text collection with 200+ files changed, 220k+ lines written/modified, mix of execution and generation), letting it run overnight.

    • Pre-Patch: Gray screen after 5-10min of execution
    • Post-Patch: Gray Screen after 7 hours of non-stop execution
  • searchFiles memory leak fully fixed, confirmed by hnbdr (HoneyBadger) on Discord.

PR Ready for review.

@edelauna, I’ve pushed the latest fixes and replied to each of your inline comments. The branch is rebased onto the current target and GitHub reports it as mergeable.

I also added the transport model you suggested. The checker runs through the aggregate lifecycle command, alongside the existing models. It exercises the actual production reducer and frame conversion, rather than a second implementation of the queue.

It explores 32,591 states and 48,094 transitions across queued updates, repeated resync, task switching/clearing, and failed-send recovery. It checks generation and sequence ordering, immediate release of obsolete work, exactly-once caller settlement, a single physical send, and complete atomic snapshots with bounded chunk ranges. All 16 action classes and 14 named landmarks are reached, and all 12 injected faults produce the expected counterexample. The state and depth budgets fail closed rather than reporting success after truncation.

One important distinction: I kept the barrier around an already-started send. Resetting it would allow old and new generations to overlap. An end marker started before invalidation can still finish; the guarantee is that no new stale post is started afterward. I documented that boundary, along with the model’s delivery and liveness assumptions, in the architecture note.

Local validation is complete on f7d2abb:

  • Full workspace tests passed, including fresh runs of 8,412 extension tests and 1,955 webview tests. Unchanged package test tasks used their existing cache.
  • Full type checks and lint passed, with no suppression-count increase.
  • All seven aggregate model checks passed.
  • The unchanged mutation gate passed: extension 356 killed, 2 timeouts within the allowed bound, and no survivors or uncovered mutants; webview 343 killed, no timeouts, survivors, or uncovered mutants. No new exclusions or relaxed limits. The local run used Windows-compatible launchers with the same selectors, related-test discovery, and report evaluator as CI.

Update: all build, test, coverage, security, translation, and visual checks now pass on this head, including the remote mutation run. The first mutation event carried a stale base SHA and stopped at scope selection; the fresh event used the current base and passed without changing code or relaxing the gate. Automated review is still running, and maintainer approval remains separate. Thanks for the detailed feedback—the queue ownership and model invariants are much clearer now.

2107-2107: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Assert which resync requests occur, not only the total count.

This test drives five distinct rejection paths: wrong task, missing start, newer mismatch, bad chunk index, and incomplete end. toHaveBeenCalledTimes(5) does not prove which paths posted a resync. If one path stops requesting and another requests twice, the count still passes. Tests elsewhere in this file already assert the observed sequences, for example Line 2018.

♻️ Proposed assertion
-				expect(postMessage).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(5)
+				expect(postMessage.mock.calls.map(([message]) => message.receivedSeq)).toEqual([2, 4, 5, 6, 7])

Adjust the expected list to the sequences the implementation reports.

As per path instructions, "Reject weak assertions on values that could take multiple forms".

1777-1777: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Assert the exact generation that must win this race.

The test name states that the older focus sync is abandoned. expect.any(Number) accepts either generation, so the assertion still passes if the implementation posts the older focus sync's generation instead of the resync's. The single-call assertion at Line 1776 does not separate those two cases.

Capture the transport generation after the resync starts and assert that exact value.

💚 Proposed assertion
 			const resync = provider.resyncClineMessagesToWebview("task-1")
+			const resyncGeneration = provider["clineMessagesTransport"].generation
 			releaseStatePost()
 			await Promise.all([focusSync, resync])
 
 			expect(snapshotSpy).toHaveBeenCalledOnce()
-			expect(snapshotSpy).toHaveBeenCalledWith("task-1", { generation: expect.any(Number) })
+			expect(snapshotSpy).toHaveBeenCalledWith("task-1", { generation: resyncGeneration })

Publish dedicated transcript focus without generic-state side effects; guard stale metadata, reject empty deltas, and catch telemetry refresh failures. Add provider, receiver, CLI, and transport-model regressions for PR Zoo-Code-Org#1360 review feedback.
Split exhaustive fault searches into separate tests while retaining all scenarios, bounds, and the existing timeout. Consolidate producer admission and frame dispatch without weakening instance guards. Full workspace, model, lint, type, and full-PR mutation validation passed.

CI fix and validation for 1679bf3

Pushed the existing local fixes after validation. The Linux coverage failure and mutation related-test discovery failure both came from the combined exhaustive transport-model test exceeding its unchanged 20-second timeout. The searches now run as separate test cases while retaining every scenario, injected fault, shortest-counterexample check, and exploration bound. Shared producer admission and frame dispatch remove duplicated decisions while retaining task/instance guards, capture-time cloning, and CLI behavior.

Local validation on the exact committed source

  • 12,375 Vitest tests passed, 40 skipped; all 10 workspace test tasks ran fresh.
  • 378 focused tests passed with coverage.
  • All seven aggregate model checks passed.
  • All 11 type-check tasks and all 11 lint tasks passed fresh; suppression counts did not increase.
  • 32/32 mutation-runner tests passed.
  • Strict full-PR mutation gate against base ebcd1a0 passed: extension 388 valid (387 killed, 1 permitted timeout); webview 391 valid (391 killed, 9 pre-existing ignored). No survivors or uncovered mutants. All discovery, preflight, and mutation processes exited successfully within the existing limits.
  • The Windows-only launcher adaptation canonicalized filesystem path casing and invoked the installed tools through Node; no tracked runner/configuration, cap, exclusion, timeout, or evaluation rule was changed. The committed blobs and full-PR mutation selectors were verified against the validated tree.

Remote status

All executable Actions workflows completed successfully on this head, including Linux and Windows coverage, visual tests, mocked E2E, security, translations, release validation, and the mutation workflow.

Important mutation qualification: current upstream CI uses an advisory mutation workflow and tested generated merge result de306d2 with newer base parent 745656a, while its comparison BASE_SHA remained ebcd1a0. Its scope therefore includes additional upstream changes. The remote extension report contains 389 killed mutants and 1 timeout; webview preflight reported 426 mutants against the 400 cap, so remote webview mutation execution did not proceed. The green advisory status is not a strict integration mutation-gate pass. The separate exact-head local strict pass above remains the applicable evidence for this fix.

- Around line 426-429: Update the transcript scope guards in the delta and
snapshot handling paths, including the guards near the referenced comparisons,
to reject frames unless message.taskId is defined and matches
activeTaskIdRef.current, while preserving the existing taskInstanceId checks.
Ensure unscoped appends and nonempty unscoped snapshots cannot repopulate state
after task clearing, and add regression coverage for both cases.

1552-1557: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration

All tracked callers pass taskInstanceId, including the Task.ts snapshot calls and the provider's resync and sync paths. No CLI or webviewMessageHandler caller uses the instance-less form. The postTranscript identity check therefore does not currently discard a snapshot because of this signature. Making taskInstanceId required would be optional defensive hardening, not a demonstrated defect.

mockProvider is reconstructed in the outer beforeEach before each test, and the producer methods are replaced with doubles during that setup. The nested beforeEach changes only the newly constructed instance, so the real implementations do not leak between tests.
