feat(server): cut T3's agent instructions and tool copy by 60% - #24850
T3 adds about 2.5k tokens of instructions to every agent thread (3.2k on Codex) and about 9.2k tokens of tool descriptions, and agents still made the same T3 tool mistakes over and over. An audit of real threads and the eval in #24635, built from 85 of those real bad experiences, showed it: agents used a native sol agent instead of delegate_task, waited on CI with sleep and gh pr checks --watch instead of watch_pull_request, linked PRs they only reviewed, re-linked PRs on every wake, and opened the preview without being asked. Some of it came from the text itself: "prefer native subagents for same-provider work" pointed agents at the native sol agent, and the inheritedOptions rule sent same-model subagents through delegate_task (#23525, #22749).
This rewrites the injected instructions and the tool and parameter descriptions so each rule is stated once, where the agent reads it when it decides, and drops what T3 now enforces itself: the wake message carries the wake rules (#24781), running task results say to end the turn (#24782), thread results carry a ready link (#24784), children never see the watch tools (#24808), gh pr create links its own PR (#24813), and request_secret can hand a shell command a private file (#24809).

Known weak spots, all also weak on main: a delegated child sometimes leaves the head SHA out of its report (child-pr-not-linked, main 2 of 9), and Astra polls on a merge-when-ready ask (merge-when-ready-poll-loop, main 0 of 3). The one Astra case that was worse than main, calling watch again on a wake, now passes 3 of 3 after the last commit.
Behavior changes worth a look:
Subagents: the harness's native subagent tool is now the default for same-provider work with no extra settings that finishes within the turn. delegate_task covers another provider's model (including a native agent type that wraps one), settings the user asks for, a prepared worktree, work that continues after the turn, or an explicit T3 task. The inheritedOptions rule is gone.
PRs: link a PR you create, take over, or push to when T3 did not link it; skip PRs you only read or review; watch only when asked to monitor or when the asked work waits on checks or reviews, then end the turn.
Preview: only when the current request asks for browser work, including checking an edit in the browser; never unasked to verify your own edit or to repeat an earlier turn's call.
Text no eval case covers was cut harder (webhook filter examples, the model option mismatch note); each tool keeps what it does and its key limits.
Proof: the eval runs above, vp run check:changed, and the replay and MCP suites (413 tests).
Created with Claude Opus 5.5 in Claude Code. Copy drafted by Muse Wonder Full, with reviews from GPT-6.1 Sol and Claude Opus 5.5, through T3 Code delegate_task.
Macroscope's review found this PR requires human approval — This PR substantially rewrites default orchestration and provider instructions across the product, changing delegation, browser, PR-monitoring, and ACP fallback behavior. The changes are cross-cutting rather than isolated copy edits, so human review is appropriate.

Walkthrough
This pull request revises MCP tool descriptions, schema annotations, provider instructions, and test fixtures. It updates guidance for orchestration, pull-request monitoring, devices, projects, threads, browser previews, and HTML rendering. Schema fields and validation remain unchanged, except for the drag-input type alias replacement.
Provider instructions and tool descriptions now cover revised delegation, pull-request linking and monitoring, and scheduled-task guidance. Related contract descriptions, tests, and transcript fixtures reflect the updated instructions. ACP prompt assembly appends terminal-transport fallback instructions under the stated condition.
Descriptions now clarify operation guidance across attachment, device, environment, project, thread, and worktree tools. Device and worktree contract descriptions were revised without changing their fields or validation.
Preview and HTML guidance apps/server/src/mcp/toolkits/preview/tools.ts, apps/server/src/mcp/toolkits/previewControls/tools.ts, apps/server/src/mcp/toolkits/html/tools.ts, packages/contracts/src/previewAutomation.ts, packages/shared/src/htmlRender.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Adapters/AcpAdapterV2.test.ts
Preview descriptions and schema annotations were revised while existing validation rules remain. HTML preview/render instructions and shared theme and layout guidance were also updated.

Explanation
The title "feat(server): cut T3's agent instructions and tool copy by 60%" is a concise conventional-commit title that matches the main change: the PR rewrites the injected agent instructions and tool/parameter descriptions to shrink them. The 60% figure is an overstatement relative to the reported reductions (53% system text for Claude, 58% for Codex, 63% tool descriptions, 38% full tool schemas), but the title still accurately names the primary change from the developer's perspective.

packages/contracts/src/worktreeMcp.ts:12-15 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Keep the contract aligned with the null remote-base behavior.
When startFromOrigin is true, WorktreeMcpService can fail to resolve the remote base after the fetch attempt. In that branch, it keeps the local baseRef and returns startedFromOrigin: false, which violates the contract that true starts from the remote ref. A caller requesting an origin-based worktree can therefore receive a worktree based on the local ref without an error.
Update either the contract description to document this fallback or, preferably, make the service reject the request when remote-base resolution returns null. Do not change only the description if callers require the requested origin-based behavior.

Each rule is stated once, where the agent reads it when it decides, and
rules T3 now enforces itself are gone. Same-provider subagents that finish
within the turn default to the harness's native tool; delegate_task covers
other providers, explicit settings, worktrees, and background work.

The size budget fails when model-facing text grows, and its messages said
to cut text. Cuts with no eval behind them caused the inline chart
regression after #24850. Now that check:changed runs the budget locally,
both messages say to run the evals that cover the text before cutting.

Why: agents read less text on each turn, so the context cost drops.
Tool descriptions, schema notes and the T3 instruction text use short
sentences. Leonidas-only tools and rules stay. Copy that named features
this fork does not have (isolation, next, link, delivery) is adjusted.
(cherry picked from commit 5f64c5e)
On a Lazurio Environment (marked by T3CODE_LAZURIO_FOLDER) T3's own browser
tools drive the Environment browser, the one shared Chromium the agents
already use through agent-browser, through a host that registers with the
preview broker under upstream's server-browser client id once the Environment
declares its browser. Upstream's server browser is never built there (a gate
in server.ts) and the descriptor omits capabilities.serverBrowser, so clients
open no server tabs. preview_open answers with the view of the tab, the
address where a person sees it; another Environment's view is never loaded
here, only handed to the person's panel.
On v0.1.3 the broker protocol and the page engine's exports are unchanged;
pingdotgg#25423 merged eight action tools into preview_act, which maps to the same
broker operations, so the host needs no change. ServerBrowser.layer now needs
PreviewAgentActivity (pingdotgg#25184), so the gate wraps
ServerBrowser.layer.pipe(Layer.provide(Layer.merge(DesktopBrowserChannel.layer,
PreviewAgentActivity.layer))) under upstream's memoization comment. The
preview_open description takes upstream's shortened text (pingdotgg#24850) plus the
overlay's view sentence. serverBrowser.test.ts gives its DesktopBrowserChannel
mock the new `turn` and provides PreviewAgentActivity. The disabled server
browser uses Effect.fn and liveTab uses Effect.undefined, for the new Effect
diagnostics; overlay comments are cut to the four-line limit. The host imports
row 11's threadTabs.ts, so this row alone does not typecheck.
On v0.1.4: upstream added peerLinks, mcpModeLimitHeader and linkFence to the environment capabilities (pingdotgg#16655, pingdotgg#16695); they stay beside the overlay's serverBrowser gate. The row's later test change (agent-turn activity of the gated server browser) is folded in.

Upstream's pre-commit hook now runs knip over the repository (pingdotgg#26167),
so ENVIRONMENT_BROWSER_ENDPOINT, which nothing imports, is
module-private.
EnvironmentBrowserPages.open now holds the new window in the thread's
strip before it records it, and closes the window again when the strip
refuses the hold (too many tabs, a holder file it cannot write): the open
fails with the strip's reason instead of answering with a window no
thread holds. The connection gains closeWindow (Target.closeTarget).

…g delegates
Upstream's no-polling rule (pingdotgg#24850, pingdotgg#24887) stops agents from contacting a running delegate before its completion wakes them. That also blocks a coordinator whose user asked for periodic check-ins through a scheduled task.
The orchestration instructions now carry an exception beside that rule: each run of a user-requested check-in may use task_status, t3_thread_read and t3_thread_send on running delegates, then reports and ends the turn. The task_status description names the same exception.
Made with Claude Opus 5.5 in Claude Code (T3 Code).
On a Lazurio Environment (marked by T3CODE_LAZURIO_FOLDER) T3's own browser
tools drive the Environment browser, the one shared Chromium the agents
already use through agent-browser, through a host that registers with the
preview broker under upstream's server-browser client id once the Environment
declares its browser. Upstream's server browser is never built there (a gate
in server.ts) and the descriptor omits capabilities.serverBrowser, so clients
open no server tabs. preview_open answers with the view of the tab, the
address where a person sees it; another Environment's view is never loaded
here, only handed to the person's panel.
On v0.1.3 the broker protocol and the page engine's exports are unchanged;
upstream (pingdotgg#25423) merged eight action tools into preview_act, which maps to the same
broker operations, so the host needs no change. ServerBrowser.layer now needs
PreviewAgentActivity (pingdotgg#25184), so the gate wraps
ServerBrowser.layer.pipe(Layer.provide(Layer.merge(DesktopBrowserChannel.layer,
PreviewAgentActivity.layer))) under upstream's memoization comment. The
preview_open description takes upstream's shortened text (pingdotgg#24850) plus the
overlay's view sentence. serverBrowser.test.ts gives its DesktopBrowserChannel
mock the new `turn` and provides PreviewAgentActivity. The disabled server
browser uses Effect.fn and liveTab uses Effect.undefined, for the new Effect
diagnostics; overlay comments are cut to the four-line limit. The host imports
row 11's threadTabs.ts, so this row alone does not typecheck.
On v0.1.4: upstream added peerLinks, mcpModeLimitHeader and linkFence to the environment capabilities (pingdotgg#16655, pingdotgg#16695); they stay beside the overlay's serverBrowser gate. The row's later test change (agent-turn activity of the gated server browser) is folded in. EnvironmentBrowserPages.open gives the Servers panel (row 9) a new window of this Environment's browser in the thread's strip; it refuses another Environment's address and answers unavailable without a declared browser.
On v0.1.5 ServerEnvironment.ts gains desktopAppChannelSwitch and
threadProjectFromScratch (pingdotgg#26288, pingdotgg#26767) next to the overlay's import;
serverBrowser is still left out only on a Lazurio Environment.
Upstream's pre-commit hook now runs knip over the repository (pingdotgg#26167),
so ENVIRONMENT_BROWSER_ENDPOINT, which nothing imports, is
module-private.
EnvironmentBrowserPages.open now holds the new window in the thread's
strip before it records it, and closes the window again when the strip
refuses the hold (too many tabs, a holder file it cannot write): the open
fails with the strip's reason instead of answering with a window no
thread holds. The connection gains closeWindow (Target.closeTarget).
On v0.1.6 upstream's server browser keeps each client's reported browser
profiles apart (pingdotgg#21745): ws.ts takes a profileReporter for every
WebSocket session instead of calling reportProfiles. The disabled server
browser hands out a reporter that keeps nothing, and its test reports
through one.
On v0.1.7 preview_open takes a dev-server `target` (pingdotgg#28027): the
description keeps upstream's sentence beside the overlay's view sentence,
and the parameters are upstream's. The Environment browser answers open
with the tab's view, and upstream's handler answered an open with a target
with the navigate result alone; it now adds the open answer's view to the
navigate result, so the view stays and nothing else of the open answer (a
dialog it saw, for one) replaces what navigate reports. A test fails
without either. The Environment browser
resolves the port target to localhost, which is where its own Environment's
dev server is. Effect 4.1.2 moved SecureRandom out of NodeServices, so the
server browser gate test also provides NodeCrypto.

Environment's own host included, never loads in this browser. preview_open
and EnvironmentBrowserPages.open of this Environment's own view take the
tab it shows instead of loading it, and preview_navigate to a view host,
like any other address on one, fails. Before, the trailing dot let
another Environment's view through, and this Environment's own view
loaded in the thread's window (review of #174). The tests

The shared orchestration instructions tell every agent to use "preview
tools only" for browser work. The exception for a browser that an
invoked skill or a documented repository workflow names, added in
pingdotgg#16956, was removed in pingdotgg#24850. An agent then refused a skill that the
user had invoked. With Agent browser access off, the preview tools were
denied too, so the agent had no browser that it was allowed to use.
- Restore the exception in the orchestration text that is always
injected, so it holds for every provider, with browser access on or
off.
- Name the same three sources (the user, an invoked skill, a documented
repo workflow) in the separate browser instructions.
- Assert that the Codex context carries the exception when browser
tools are not available.
- Add the `invoked-skill-uses-separate-browser` eval case.
- Raise the agent context budget by 148 bytes for Claude and 214 bytes
for Codex.
Verified locally: the new assertion fails on the unfixed text and
passes with the fix, the budget test matches the measured bytes, and
`vp run check:changed` passes. The eval case was validated with a dry
run only. It was not run against a model, so it is not shown to fail on
the old text.

T3 adds about 2.5k tokens of instructions to every agent thread (3.2k on Codex) and about 9.2k tokens of tool descriptions, and agents still made the same T3 tool mistakes over and over. An audit of real threads and the eval in #24635, built from 85 of those real bad experiences, showed it: agents used a native
solagent instead ofdelegate_task, waited on CI withsleepandgh pr checks --watchinstead ofwatch_pull_request, linked PRs they only reviewed, re-linked PRs on every wake, and opened the preview without being asked. Some of it came from the text itself: "prefer native subagents for same-provider work" pointed agents at the nativesolagent, and theinheritedOptionsrule sent same-model subagents throughdelegate_task(#23525, #22749).This rewrites the injected instructions and the tool and parameter descriptions so each rule is stated once, where the agent reads it when it decides, and drops what T3 now enforces itself: the wake message carries the wake rules (#24781), running task results say to end the turn (#24782), thread results carry a ready
link(#24784), children never see the watch tools (#24808),gh pr createlinks its own PR (#24813), andrequest_secretcan hand a shell command a private file (#24809).Eval (#24635, 2-3 samples per case, samples that failed to run are left out):
Known weak spots, all also weak on main: a delegated child sometimes leaves the head SHA out of its report (
child-pr-not-linked, main 2 of 9), and Astra polls on a merge-when-ready ask (merge-when-ready-poll-loop, main 0 of 3). The one Astra case that was worse than main, calling watch again on a wake, now passes 3 of 3 after the last commit.Behavior changes worth a look:
delegate_taskcovers another provider's model (including a native agent type that wraps one), settings the user asks for, a prepared worktree, work that continues after the turn, or an explicit T3 task. TheinheritedOptionsrule is gone.Supersedes #23933.
