- Add UserPrompts Prompt field to AgentConfig (same JSON format as prompt).
- Resolve userPrompts via resolvePrompt() in BuildRuntime, store in Runtime.UserPrompt.
- Prepend resolved user prompts to every user message at executeTurn start.
- Document userPrompts in data/agents/README.md.
- Remove per-step stripCold from run(); call once per turn in executeTurn
after accumulator reset and before preamble injection.
- Replace expensive deep-clone snapshot with pre-turn length truncation.
- Delete unused cloneMessages() helper.
- Remove per-step preamble prepending in loop.go; inject once at turn start
in turn.go instead of re-sending thousands of tokens every tool step.
- Re-inject preamble after overflow retry compaction where it was lost.
- Replace stripCold() N sequential LLM calls with one batched call that
summarizes all cold-zone tool results via a single JSON response.
Sub-agents now clone the parent agent's conversation history into
their initial context. The tool script passes parent=$OLLIE_UNAME
automatically. Mechanically identical to session restore — uses
RestoreHistoryFromMessages on the parent's Messages().
Add Sub-Agents section explaining agent/new with prompt= key.
Include examples for single and parallel sub-agent spawning.
Update 9P namespace table to show agent/new as rdwr.
Writing to session/{s}/agent/new with a prompt= key now blocks
until the agent completes its task, then returns the reply and
destroys the transient agent. Without prompt=, behaves as before
(creates agent, returns ID).
Also:
- Move ParsePayload/UnescapeValue to shared ollie/toolsrv package
- Remove duplicate implementations from cmd/toolsrv/internal/server
- Add session.CreateAgentWithParams for direct AgentParams usage
- Eliminate flattenParams/unescapeValue redundancy in fs package
Read, Write, and Rdwr are the three atomic 9P operations:
- Read: non-blocking read
- Write: non-blocking write (fire-and-forget)
- Rdwr: atomic write-then-read (blocking, produces result)
BlockOnce and Stream are special cases of Read.
Rdwr is its own primitive — not a variant of either.
All foreground tool calls now acquire a lock based on the tool's
declared scope and file path before execution:
- scope "read": no lock (reads never conflict)
- scope "write": exclusive lock on the file path
- scope "global": exclusive global lock (serializes with everything)
This ensures writes to the same path serialize regardless of which
agent initiated the call, enabling safe parallel sub-agents within
a session without explicit coordination.
Cross-session serialization (shared toolsrv per host) is left as
future work.
The persist path created agents with &Runtime{} (nil Preamble).
If a prompt arrived before resume rebuilt the runtime, Preamble.Set
panicked. Initialize with an empty Preamble.
ListProcs now does rdwr to toolsrv proc/list with the agent ID.
Returns pre-formatted text. Ctl proc handler uses it directly.
Removed all ListDetachedRaw map-parsing logic.
