Summary

The vision sidecar silently truncated valid captions. parseSidecarSSE bounded the raw SSE wire at 64 KiB, but Responses framing spends far more wire on JSON envelopes than on model output — one envelope per 3-character delta. In the reported session a complete 1,488-character caption cost ~139 KB of wire, so the parser stopped mid-stream, returned the 725-character prefix with error: null, and describeImage adopted it as a successful description. The text-only target model received a truncated caption with no indication it was incomplete, and the vision path rendered and cached it.

This is the dangerous failure mode: not an error, but an incomplete result processed as a normal one.

The fix separates the two bounds the single raw cap was conflating, and proves completion instead of assuming it:

  • MAX_SIDECAR_STREAM_BYTES (16x the old cap) is the hostile-upstream wire ceiling. The parse path stays bounded.
  • MAX_SIDECAR_DECODED_CHARS bounds the decoded text actually accumulated, which is the quantity the old cap was really trying to limit.
  • Completion now requires a terminal event (response.completed, response.done, or [DONE]). A bound hit, a terminal failure, or EOF before a terminal event all surface as an explicit error even when partial text was decoded.
  • describeImage rejects any parser error, so an incomplete caption can no longer be rendered or cached.

Deliberately not done: removing or unboundedly raising the limit. Both ceilings remain finite.

MAX_SIDECAR_RESPONSE_BYTES keeps its value and its export for the non-Responses sidecar executors and bounded error bodies. DESC_MAX_CHARS is untouched — it is a display clamp, not a completeness signal, which is why it never fired here (the caption was only 1,488 characters).

Upstream Codex treats response.completed as the only successful terminal for Responses SSE and raises stream closed before response.completed on clean EOF, so failing closed on a missing terminal matches the upstream invariant. Accepting response.done and [DONE] in addition is an opencodex sidecar compatibility extension. The two ceiling sizes are local resource policy with no upstream equivalent.

Closes #4727

Verification

Static source review only, plus hosted CI. No local test suite, typecheck, test:changed, or build was run — the repository owner explicitly prohibited local suite execution for this batch.

Static checks performed:

  • Enumerated every parseSidecarSSE caller: src/vision/describe.ts and src/web-search/executor.ts are the only two. Confirmed src/web-search/loop.ts already branches on outcome.error (failedQueries, allFailed, anySuccess), so the stricter error degrades a web-search query rather than throwing.
  • Confirmed the MAX_SIDECAR_RESPONSE_BYTES importers (anthropic-executor, ollama-executor, gemini-executor, exa-executor, xai-executor) are unaffected: the constant keeps its value and meaning.
  • git diff --check clean.

Regression coverage in tests/web-search/web-search-parse.test.ts and tests/vision/vision-fail-closed.test.ts:

  • parses a 75 KB tiny-delta caption through response.completed — the issue's exact deterministic stream (75,436 wire bytes, 1,560 characters) now returns the full caption with no error.
  • returns an explicit error when decoded payload limit is exceeded
  • returns an explicit error when stream ends without a terminal event
  • stops a runaway raw stream at the bounded wire ceiling
  • does not render or cache an incomplete sidecar description — the vision path emits an error marker and performs no cache write.

The four pre-existing raw-cap regressions were kept and re-pointed at the new wire ceiling rather than deleted, so byte-exact acceptance, partial-event discard at the cap, no U+FFFD from a truncated multibyte sequence, and resilience to a rejecting cancel() all still hold: accepts exactly the byte cap, keeps complete events, and cancels without another read, keeps complete no-space data events and drops a partial event at the cap, does not flush a truncated multibyte sequence at the cap, returns bounded partial output when body cancellation rejects.

Checklist

  • Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup.
  • Docs or release notes were updated when needed. (no user-facing configuration change; the bound is internal and visionSidecar options are unchanged)
  • Security-sensitive changes were reviewed for secrets, auth, and unsafe defaults. (no auth surface; the parser still never logs frame contents, only lengths and a classification)

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Incomplete, interrupted, oversized, or malformed streaming responses are no longer shown as complete descriptions or search results.
    • Partial captions and text are excluded when a stream reports an error or ends without completion.
    • Custom provider model discovery URLs are normalized more reliably.
    • Tool calls remain compatible with providers that impose name-length limits.
    • Responses requiring specific reasoning replay are routed only to compatible targets.
  • Provider Compatibility

    • Kimi tool results maintain required call/result ordering.
    • Unsafe CodeBuddy scaffolding is rejected instead of being executed or displayed.

parseSidecarSSE bounded the raw SSE wire at 64 KiB. Responses framing spends
far more wire on JSON envelopes than on model output, so an ordinary 1,488
character caption cost ~139 KB and was cut mid-stream. The parser returned the
prefix with no error, describeImage adopted it as a successful description, and
the vision path rendered and cached a silently incomplete caption.

Separate the two bounds the single raw cap was conflating. MAX_SIDECAR_STREAM_BYTES
(16x) is the hostile-upstream wire ceiling; MAX_SIDECAR_DECODED_CHARS bounds the
decoded text actually retained. Completion is now proven by a terminal event
(response.completed, response.done, or [DONE]) rather than assumed from EOF, so a
bound hit, a terminal failure, or EOF before a terminal event all surface as an
explicit error even when partial text was decoded. describeImage rejects any
parser error, so an incomplete caption can no longer be rendered or cached.

MAX_SIDECAR_RESPONSE_BYTES keeps its value and export for the non-Responses
sidecar executors and bounded error bodies. DESC_MAX_CHARS is untouched: it is a
display clamp, not a completeness signal.

Changes

Sidecar stream safety

Layer / File(s) Summary
Parser bounds and terminal state
src/web-search/parse.ts
The parser adds separate streamed-wire and decoded-text limits. It tracks terminal events, cancels the reader after terminal or limit conditions, reports missing bodies and incomplete streams, and preserves errors alongside partial text.
Vision error propagation
src/vision/describe.ts, tests/web-search/web-search-parse.test.ts, tests/vision/vision-fail-closed.test.ts
describeImage rejects every parsed error, including errors returned with partial text. Tests cover larger valid streams, decoded-text limits, missing terminal events, wire-limit cancellation, incomplete vision responses, cache cleanup, and omission of partial captions.

CodeBuddy scaffold filtering

Layer / File(s) Summary
Streaming scaffold guard
src/adapters/codebuddy/adapter.ts, src/adapters/codebuddy/scaffold-guard.ts, tests/providers/codebuddy-adapter.test.ts, docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/providers.md, structure/providers/chat-compat.md
CodeBuddy filters text and reasoning deltas for the specified DSML calls/invoke sequence. It buffers split markers, preserves safe output, and emits a non-retryable 502 error when the sequence is detected. Tests and documentation cover rejected scaffolds and unchanged prose or code examples.

OpenAI Chat tool-name normalization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Request-scoped tool-name registry
src/adapters/openai-chat.ts, src/adapters/openai-chat/tool-name-registry.ts, src/adapters/openai-chat/tool-schema.ts, tests/adapters/openai/openai-chat-bounded-tool-names.test.ts, structure/providers/chat-compat.md
OpenAI Chat uses deterministic aliases for flattened namespaced tool names that exceed 64 characters, match the reserved alias form, or collide. The same registry rewrites schemas, replay messages, and tool_choice, then restores original names in streamed and non-streamed events. Tests cover boundaries, replay-only tools, collisions, and other adapter-owned naming behavior.

Reasoning replay and combo routing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Replay capability and sanitization
src/adapters/openai-responses/passthrough.ts, src/providers/registry/entries-core.ts, src/providers/registry/entries-extended.ts, src/server/responses/core-replay.ts, tests/providers/deepseek-reasoning-replay.test.ts, tests/providers/kimi-responses-adjacency.test.ts, structure/transports/responses.md
Providers can declare plaintext replay and adjacent tool-result requirements. Replay checks identify requests with tools and opaque-only reasoning, while sanitization removes incompatible encrypted reasoning. Kimi configurations enable tool-result adjacency normalization.

|Combo target eligibility
src/server/responses/core-combo.ts, src/server/responses/core-errors.ts, tests/server/server-combo-reasoning-replay-eligibility.test.ts|Combo selection, cooldown handling, failover, and recovery exclude targets that cannot accept the replayed history. When no compatible target remains, the handler returns a 400 target_incompatible response. Tests cover failover, foreign opaque reasoning, missing providers, and exhausted targets.|

Provider model discovery

Layer / File(s) Summary
Normalized discovery URL
src/providers/model-discovery.ts, src/oauth/index.ts, src/oauth/key-providers.ts, tests/providers/provider-model-discovery-contract.test.ts, structure/runtime.md, tests/server/management-client-config-route.test.ts, tests/server/model-discovery-management-api.test.ts
Custom provider discovery now normalizes base URLs before appending /models. OAuth discovery and API-key validation use the shared helper. Tests cover trailing slashes, existing endpoints, overrides, authorization, and schema-valid fixtures.

이 PR은 비전 사이드카가 캡션을 조용히 잘린 채 성공으로 처리하던 구멍을 막는다. 이슈 #4727이 말한 사고는 이렇다. parseSidecarSSE가 예전에는 원본 SSE 와이어를 64 KiB(MAX_SIDECAR_RESPONSE_BYTES)로만 잘랐는데, Responses 스트림은 글자 몇 개짜리 delta마다 JSON 봉투가 붙어서 와이어가 금방 커진다. 실제로 완성 캡션이 1,488자여도 와이어가 ~139 KB가 되면 파서가 중간에서 멈추고, error: null인 채 725자 앞부분만 돌려줬다. describeImage는 그걸 성공 설명으로 받아 렌더·캐시했고, 텍스트만 보는 타깃 모델은 잘린 캡션을 완전한 설명으로 믿었다. 현재 dev HEAD는 3070d64d8 (package 2.57.0, 마지막 머지 #4714 combos forced effort)이고, 이 PR 베이스도 그 tip이다. 고친 내용은 (1) 와이어 천장 MAX_SIDECAR_STREAM_BYTES(=64KiB×16)과 디코드 문자 천장 MAX_SIDECAR_DECODED_CHARS(64KiB chars)를 분리하고, (2) response.completed / response.done / [DONE] 같은 터미널 이벤트가 와야만 성공으로 보며, (3) 한도·실패·터미널 전 EOF면 부분 텍스트가 있어도 error를 세우고, (4) describeImage는 parsed.error가 있으면 텍스트를 버리고 실패로 돌린다. MAX_SIDECAR_RESPONSE_BYTES 값·export는 anthropic/ollama/gemini/exa/xai 등 non-Responses 실행기와 에러 바디 한도에 그대로 두고, DESC_MAX_CHARS 디스플레이 클램프는 건드리지 않았다. 회귀는 tests/web-search/web-search-parse.test.ts에 이슈 재현(75,436 와이어 / 1,560자)과 디코드 한도·터미널 없음·런어웨이 와이어를 넣고, tests/vision/vision-fail-closed.test.ts에 불완전 스트림이 렌더·캐시되지 않는 경로를 넣었다. types.ts/config.ts 분할이나 pre-split monolith 재편집과는 무관하다.

라인 src/web-search/parse.ts acceptDecodedChars - delta / done / response.completed final / reasoning delta가 각각 decodedChars에 더해진다. 정상 스트림은 같은 본문이 최대 세 번 잡힐 수 있어서, 진짜 본문이 ~21K자 근처면 64K 한도에 거짓 양성이 날 여지가 있다. 비전 캡션(DESC_MAX_CHARS 2K)에는 여유지만 웹서치 긴 답이 이 파서를 같이 쓰는 점은 알아둘 만하다.
경로 src/web-search/parse.ts (결과 의미) - 예전 주석은 "쓸 만한 텍스트가 없고 에러일 때만 error"였는데, 이제는 부분 텍스트+error를 함께 돌려준다. describeImage는 에러면 텍스트를 비우므로 비전은 안전하고, web-search/loop.ts도 outcome.error로 실패 집계하니 방향은 맞다. 다만 "부분 답+에러"를 쓰는 다른 호출자가 생기면 계약이 바뀐 것이다.
커밋 메시지 [skip ci] - head 9bf30f3f0에는 unit/typecheck hosted suite가 안 돈다. 지금 rollup은 hygiene/label/enforce-target/resolve-pr 성공 + CodeRabbit pending이고, mergeStateStatus=BLOCKED다. DEV-STACK tip-only 정책과 맞지만 머지 확신은 tip CI에 의존한다.
경로 src/vision/anthropic-describe.ts - 이 파일은 로컬 MAX_SIDECAR_RESPONSE_BYTES = 64*1024를 그대로 쓰고 Responses parseSidecarSSE 경로가 아니다. 이번 범위 밖이 맞지만, Anthropic 비전 사이드카에는 같은 "조용한 절단→성공" 패턴이 아직 남아 있을 수 있다.

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

  • [skip ci] head를 tip에 올린 뒤 hosted CI로 parse/vision-fail-closed 회귀를 확인할지, 아니면 이 head에만 suite를 예외로 돌릴지.
  • decodedChars를 "최종로 채택될 텍스트" 기준으로 한 번만 셀지, 지금처럼 적대 상한(중복 카운트 허용)으로 둘지.
  • #4727을 이 PR 머지와 함께 닫을지(본문 Closes Vision sidecar silently truncates valid captions at the 64 KiB SSE limit #4727). 증상·재현·기대 동작이 이 패치와 정확히 맞다.
  • Anthropic 비전(anthropic-describe.ts) 후속으로 같은 fail-closed를 이을지, 별 이슈로 남길지.

너의 추천
ready·MERGEABLE(체크는 tip CI 대기)이고, #4727의 위험 모드(불완전 결과를 성공처럼 처리)를 정면으로 고친다. types/config 분할 무관하니 close-don't-rebase 대상이 아니다. 추천: tip CI에서 web-search-parse / vision-fail-closed가 초록인 것을 확인한 뒤 머지하고 #4727을 닫는다. decodedChars 중복 집계는 후속 정리로 미뤄도 비전 캡션 규모에서는 당장 막지 않아도 된다. 로컬 full suite는 이번 레인 금지 그대로 유지.

P2 Badge Count each logical output only once against the limit

A normal Responses stream repeats the same answer in response.output_text.delta, response.output_text.done, and response.completed; cumulatively incrementing decodedChars for all three makes a fully completed 21,846-character answer exceed the nominal 65,536-character limit. This returns sidecar response decoded text limit reached, and the vision and web-search callers then discard an otherwise valid result. Apply the ceiling to each authoritative logical output, or clear/subtract superseded copies when done and completed arrive.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Stop processing frames after a terminal event.

acc.terminalEvent is set for [DONE] and completion events, but this guard only stops processing after a decoded-text limit. A single reader.read() result can contain multiple SSE frames. If it contains response.completed followed by response.failed, the later frame sets acc.error and rejects an already completed response.

Add acc.terminalEvent to this guard. Add a regression test that puts a terminal frame and a later frame in the same stream chunk.

Proposed fix
-    if (acc.limitReached) return;
+    if (acc.limitReached || acc.terminalEvent) return;

Based on learnings: SSE tests must not assume a 1:1 mapping between stream chunks and logical events.

…4726) [skip ci]

Kimi's Code Plan Responses endpoint requires a tool result to follow its call
immediately. When the desktop LSP hook injects a developer message between a
code-mode exec call and its output, Kimi rejects the whole request with HTTP 400
naming the unanswered tool_call_id. Because the row replays full history every
turn, the session then fails permanently rather than once.

opencodex already implements exactly this repair in
normalizeResponsesToolResultAdjacency, but passthrough gates it on
requiresAdjacentResponsesToolResults, which only DeepSeek's entry seeded. Kimi
inherited no normalization, so a user who configures Kimi onto the Responses
wire hits the 400 on every affected turn.

Seed the flag on both kimi and kimi-code. The existing fill-only derivation in
providerConfigSeed, enrichProviderFromRegistry and routedProviderConfig carries
it into new and already-persisted rows without overriding an explicit user
value, and the flag is inert while these presets use the Chat wire.

The repair reorders; it does not delete. The intervening developer message is
preserved and moves after the batch, so the fix cannot be mistaken for silencing
the 400 by dropping hook context. Coverage pins that, plus call_id pairing with
two outstanding calls and interleaved noise, and an already-adjacent input being
left untouched.

No upstream specification documents the requirement; the evidence is the
reported 400 and DeepSeek's identical failure shape under #1292. Upstream Codex
deliberately leaves an intervening developer message where it is, so this stays
a per-provider capability rather than a wire-wide default.
…reasoning (#4696) [skip ci]

Official DeepSeek rejects a tool-bearing continuation whose prior reasoning is
not replayed, with 400 invalid_request_error: the reasoning_text in the thinking
mode must be passed back to the API. A combo failover reached that state.

The reported shape is narrow and still reproduces. When the previous successful
turn's reasoning exists only as opaque encrypted_content minted by a different
provider, account or model, the replay identity no longer matches, so the
sanitizer strips the foreign blob. Stripping is correct — that blob is not
decodable by the new route — but it left a reasoning item carrying neither
encrypted_content nor reasoning_text, and forwarded that hollow shell to a
provider whose thinking mode requires the real thing.

A history that already carries plaintext reasoning_text was never affected and
is unchanged: preserveResponsesReasoningContent keeps it, and each combo target
clones the original request body rather than reusing a previous target's
converted one.

Fail closed instead of guessing. A target that requires plaintext reasoning
replay is ineligible for a history proven to have lost it across a route change;
failover continues to the next target, and an exhausted combo returns 400
target_incompatible through the same core-errors factory convention as
unreadable_encrypted_agent_task. Reasoning is never fabricated, and an opaque
blob belonging to another provider or account is never forwarded.

A target that cannot be routed at all stays eligible here, so an unrelated
routing failure still surfaces as 503 combo_unavailable rather than being
misreported as a reasoning incompatibility.

requiresPlaintextReasoningReplay() names the provider contract in one place. It

requiresAdjacentResponsesToolResults because official DeepSeek is the only entry
setting both; that derivation is documented and should become an explicit
capability as soon as a second provider needs it.

A custom provider whose baseUrl ends in a slash produced a doubled discovery
path: https://gateway.example.com/v1//models. Gateways that route the doubled
path as a distinct route reject it — the report observed HTTP 403 — so discovery
failed and the catalog silently fell back to the configured models.

The send paths were normalized already, by openaiChatCompletionsUrl and
openaiResponsesUrl, but discovery was not. buildModelsRequest appended the
endpoint verbatim, and resolveProviderModelDiscoveryUrl returns that default
unchanged for a provider with no registry spec, which is exactly the custom
case. Registry providers escaped it because new URL(spec.path, base) collapses
the doubled slash.

providerModelsUrl mirrors openaiChatCompletionsUrl rather than inventing a
second policy: trim outer whitespace and trailing slashes, drop an already
pasted /models, then append exactly one. Both production callers of the default
discovery URL use it — catalog discovery and API-key validation.

An existing path prefix is preserved, so /api/openai/v1 is not collapsed to the
origin. Registry spec.path, absolute endpoint overrides and relative endpoint
overrides all resolve exactly as before; a baseUrl already written without a
trailing slash is byte-identical to its previous output.
The CodeBuddy route launches the vendor CLI with --tools "" and
--strict-mcp-config, so the routed model has no native tool channel and writes
its call as prose. The shared coding-agent projection forwards text_delta
unrepaired, so that markup reached the client as an ordinary assistant answer.

Qoder's guard does not match it. The leaked tags are wrapped in FULLWIDTH
VERTICAL LINE (U+FF5C), which none of the shipped UNREPAIRABLE_MARKERS cover, so
this needed a signature of its own rather than a port.

Refusal requires the observed two-line grammar: a calls control line at column
zero, outside a Markdown fence, immediately followed by an invoke line naming a
functions.* tool. A lone tag, a quoted or inline-code literal, a fenced example,
a blockquote, indented source, or prose discussing the markup all carry extra
syntax before the tag and are forwarded untouched. Matching the marker alone
would refuse a legitimate answer that merely explains this protocol, which is
why the detector is narrower than the marker spelling.

A detected leak preserves the answer text already proven safe, emits one
non-retryable vendor_scaffold_detected error, and suppresses the vendor's later
success terminal so the client never sees a completed turn. Markers split across
streamed deltas are caught by holding only a bounded suffix that could still
complete a control sequence or a fence; unrelated pending text is released at
the next mismatch or terminal. The reasoning channel is guarded independently.

Leaked prose is never promoted into a real tool call. The text channel carries
no authenticated call envelope and no validated arguments, so converting it
would manufacture execution authority out of model output.

Kept CodeBuddy-owned rather than lifted into the shared coding-agent path, the
same containment #4234 chose for Qoder: the contract observed here is this
vendor's, and #4190's lane packet asked for a report rather than symmetry.

…#4679) [skip ci]

Command Code's gateway rejects a request outright with 400 name must be at most
64 characters, got 66. Codex Desktop built-in app tools flatten to
<namespace>__<name> past that bound, a user cannot exclude them, and
Responses-Lite catalogs bundle every declared tool, so the surface cannot be
shrunk from configuration.

The bound belongs to the adapter, not to the shared name helper. Three adapters
already solve this for themselves: Kiro normalizes to its own charset with a
deterministic 8-hex suffix, Google compiles and restores names in its wire
compiler, and Meta Muse aliases names on api.meta.ai. The translated
openai-chat path is the only one with no answer, and it is the path Command Code
uses.

A request-scoped registry now owns one collision domain per translated Chat
Completions request, following Kiro's shape. A namespaced name whose flattened
spelling exceeds 64 characters becomes a charset-safe alias derived purely from
the native identity, so it is stable across processes, catalog order and catalog
membership. Declarations, replayed assistant tool calls and tool_choice all pass
through the same registry, and both the streaming and buffered parsers restore
the echoed alias before tool_call_start, so the existing bridge map still hands
the client its native {namespace, name}.

The registry is seeded from the union of the current catalog and the structured
tool calls still present in replay history, because a historical call can keep
its namespace without being redeclared; seeding from the catalog alone would let
exactly the reported over-limit name reach the gateway again on a later turn.

Nothing else changes. Names at or under 64 characters and bare names are
byte-identical on the wire, and Kiro, Google and Muse still receive the raw
flattened name and run their own normalization.

64 is the Chat Completions function-name limit and a strict-gateway
compatibility concern, not OpenAI Responses parity: upstream Codex raised its own
MCP ceiling to 128 bytes in openai/codex#39594 because native Responses accepts
128. Applying it on this wire is correct for that wire alone.

Carried from #4715. That PR placed the bound in the shared namespacedToolName
helper and was provisionally accepted there. Hosted CI then showed twice that the
shared point intercepts adapters which already had an answer: it broke Google's
wire-compiler restore, and after that was narrowed it broke Kiro's normalizer.
The problem statement and issue analysis are the original author's; only the
placement changed.

Landing the lane into dev. This is the bottom layer. The vision sidecar separates the wire ceiling from the decoded-text ceiling and proves completeness from a terminal event rather than inferring it from EOF, so a caption truncated at the limit is an explicit failure instead of a silently accepted partial result.

Evidence at the verified tip 49f815d (tree cea66da56f10b8d1aee2290fa185d321442eab98), from run 35061163092:

  • test 1-4/4 and macos 1-2/2 all completed with conclusion success, confirmed through the check-runs API rather than the check rollup, so the heavy jobs actually executed and were not path-filtered. gates, changes, storage policy, api usage, docker smoke, keyring and npm-global on three platforms, the three service-lifecycle jobs, and the aggregate ci check all succeeded.
  • The ci failure at this commit belongs to run 35061161660, which this push superseded; run 35061163092 is the live one and it concluded success.
  • The lane absorbed dev at cf6e939 from the bottom layer upward, so each pull request keeps its own layer diff (4 / 9 / 6 / 7 / 7 / 5 files) and no dev commit appears in any layer's diff.
  • The single conflict was structure/transports/responses.md, where both sides appended a new section to the same empty base. It was resolved by keeping both: the section count goes from 14 on dev to 15 here, and every dev section name is still present. That loss is the kind CI cannot detect, so the names were compared directly rather than trusting the count.
  • The file-size ratchet reports no offenders after the absorption; openai-chat.ts sits exactly at its 822 cap.
  • git merge-tree --write-tree origin/dev <tip> reports a clean merge, and origin/dev is itself an ancestor of this tip.
  • Ancestry verified so each layer closes as MERGED: pw1 through pw5 are all ancestors of this tip.

Maintainer integration decision under MAINTAINERS.md / AGENTS.md: a maintainer with maintain or admin access may integrate into dev without a second maintainer approval, recording the decision and exact-head CI evidence.
