- Workflows are executable scripts in data/workflows/
- New 'workflows' 9P file lists available workflows
- Goal file stores text; writing triggers workflow if status allows
- goalstatus file for status read/write, goalwait for blocking
- Session ctl accepts 'run [workflow]' command
- Session now owns CWD; agents inherit via callback
- Conductor workflow: creates agent, primes with instructions, exits
- GUI workflow combo reads from workflows, not agents
- Persistence includes goal, goalstatus, workflow, and session CWD
Write to session/{s}/goal to set a session-level objective.
A conductor agent is spawned automatically in the background,
decomposes the goal, spawns sub-agents, and reports completion.
- goal file: write sets goal + starts conductor; read returns status
- goalwait file: blocks until goal status changes (BlockOnce)
- Conductor writes status=complete/blocked back to goal when done
- Session.Goal() / SetGoal() / GoalSignal() on Session struct
The step budget mechanism is gone. Agents run until they finish,
are interrupted by the user, or (for sub-agents) hit the timeout.
No replacement. The human is the kill switch.
Enforce three limits on sub-agent spawning:
- depth (default 1): sub-agents cannot spawn their own sub-agents
- parallelism (default unlimited): cap concurrent children per parent
- timeout (default 600s): sub-agents are killed after 10 minutes
Top-level agents are never constrained by timeout.
Also: refactored parseAgentNewRequest to return a struct instead of
4 positional values. Added depth/activeChildren fields to Agent.
OLLIE_SUBAGENT_DEPTH env var set on sub-agents.
Deferred: remove maxSteps (replace entirely with timeout).
Sub-agents can now inherit parent context truncated at a specific
user turn: fork_at=5 means 'fork from the state after the 5th
user message.' Enables backtracking without losing unsummarized
context from before a failed approach.
Without fork_at (or fork_at=0), full history is inherited as before.
