Conversation
📝 SummarySummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughThe change centralizes effective tool availability across prompt generation, native tool filtering, runtime validation, request snapshots, preview output, and metadata-fetch cancellation. Prompt sections now reflect the tools available for each request. ChangesEffective tool policy consistency
Priority: ➖ Normal Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Severity of issue fixed: Medium Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The unified tool policy can still become inconsistent during retries or request-state changes, potentially advertising different tools than runtime execution permits and delaying retries. These request-flow issues should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

In `@scripts/stryker-diff.mjs`:
- Line 325: Update win32ShellQuote and its command-invocation paths so literal
percent signs in operands, including %TEMP%, are not expanded by cmd.exe while
preserving existing quoting behavior. Add Windows regression coverage for
literal %TEMP% operands in both affected paths.
In `@src/core/prompts/__tests__/sections.spec.ts`:
- Around line 347-350: Rename the test containing getRulesSection and the RULES
assertion to describe only the baseline RULES behavior; remove the misleading
isStealthModel and vendor-confidentiality wording from its test name while
leaving the assertion and implementation unchanged.
In `@src/core/prompts/sections/objective.ts`:
- Line 26: Update the objective prompt wording to replace the broad “extensive
capabilities” and “wide range of tools” claim with policy-neutral wording
referring only to the provided tools, while preserving the surrounding tool-use
guidance. Add a zero-clause policy assertion in the objective prompt tests to
verify the revised wording under a policy with no tool clauses.
In `@src/core/prompts/tools/effective-tool-policy.ts`:
- Around line 290-303: Compute the MCP resource availability once before the
`allowedToolNames` check, store the result, and reuse it for `hasMcpResources`
and related MCP-tool resolution instead of calling `hasAnyMcpResources` or
repeatedly querying `mcpHub.getServers()`. Update the surrounding logic in the
effective policy flow while preserving its existing behavior.
In `@src/core/task/__tests__/build-tools.spec.ts`:
- Line 102: Add positive expectations to both relevant tests around
allowedFunctionNames, including the assertions near execute_command and the
other referenced case, verifying the expected allowed tool name is present while
retaining the negative assertions. This must ensure the list is non-empty and
correctly populated rather than only confirming excluded names are absent.

Request construction re-read model metadata twice after the streaming turn's bounded fetch; thread the captured snapshot through attemptApiRequest so prompt assembly, context sizing, and tool arrays agree on a single view, resolving the fallback only when no snapshot was supplied. A cancellation that lands during a request's waits now stops the request before any tool array, abort controller, or provider call is issued for it.
The empty-response retry test now asserts that the retry iteration reaches attemptApiRequest with its own incremented attempt count (second call, retryAttempt 1), instead of only checking the resulting conversation history.
…prompt build getSystemPrompt no longer falls back to re-reading provider state; the provider-state snapshot parameter is now required. An explicit undefined declares that the caller's own read came back empty because the provider was already gone, and the prompt then resolves from defaults. The prompt and the request's runtime tool array now resolve from a single snapshot by construction rather than by caller convention. Behavior is unchanged on all reachable paths. Task.spec.ts grows from 128 to 129 tests to cover the required-parameter contract.
The bounded metadata waits in Task.safeEnsureModelFetched and the system prompt preview cleared their timer but left the handler-side promise waiting on the model-catalog fetch. The ApiHandler contract now threads an optional AbortSignal through ensureModelFetched(): RouterProvider settles the waiter with a rejection when the signal aborts, so an abandoned or cancelled caller detaches instead of parking a promise on the shared fetch (which keeps running for other waiters and still populates the cache, by design). The task aborts its waiter both when the 5s bound expires and when cancelCurrentRequest runs (cancel and dispose paths); the preview aborts at its bound and on completion. The task-lifecycle doc's table padding was also reconciled with the PR base: the remaining diff there is now only prettier's column re-padding, which the repo's own pre-commit formatter enforces.

…napshot Mutation-diff gate kills (PR Zoo-Code-Org#1505): - zoo-gateway: signal-aware ensureModelFetched tests for the fetch-wins and fetch-rejects branches (block/CallExpression NoCoverage), an addEventListener spy pinning the { once: true } options, and paired add/remove listener assertions pinning the abort event name on both detach sites (StringLiteral mutants). - Task: ownership-guard tests for metadataFetchAbortController (clear on own completion, leave a replaced controller in place). - generateSystemPrompt: signal-capture tests pinning the timeout-bound and finally-block controller.abort() detaches (CallExpression mutants). CodeRabbit: thread the request model-info snapshot into buildCleanConversationHistory so preserveReasoning resolves from the same per-request snapshot as the prompt and tool arrays, plus regression tests. No Stryker-disable directives were needed; all 14 mutants are killed behaviorally.

optionsto the recursive retries so the retry reuses this snapshot.Line 4563 captures one model-info snapshot per request. The internal retries at Line 4907, Line 4927, and Line 4945 call
this.attemptApiRequest(retryAttempt + 1)without theoptionsargument. The retry therefore dropsrequestModelInfoand runs a freshsafeEnsureModelFetched().A metadata fetch that resolves after the first bounded wait then produces a retry whose prompt and tool arrays resolve from loaded metadata, while
cachedStreamingModel(set inrecursivelyMakeClineRequestsbefore this call) still holds the fallback snapshot that tool execution reads. That is the prompt/runtime divergence this change removes on the first attempt. The same call sites also dropskipProviderRateLimit, which adds an unintended rate-limit wait on retry.🔧 Proposed fix
- yield* this.attemptApiRequest(retryAttempt + 1) + yield* this.attemptApiRequest(retryAttempt + 1, options)Apply the same change at the other two recursive call sites (Line 4927 and Line 4945).

Closes: #1240, #505
Description
Two system-prompt bugs fixed in one branch. All changes are backend-only (
src/core/).#1240 - system prompt advertises tools the model cannot call. The prompt sections were mostly static text with a separate source of truth from the API tool-filtering path, so e.g. Architect/Ask/Orchestrator still got
execute_commandguidance, and MCP guidance could appear when no MCP tool was effectively available.How it's fixed:
src/core/prompts/tools/effective-tool-policy.tscomputes the effective logical tool set per request (mode groups -> permission checks -> model include/exclude -> feature flags ->disabledTools-> MCP availability -> protocol guarantee).filterNativeToolsForMode(the API tool-definition path) consume the same policy, so the generated prompt and the sent tool definitions always agree.attempt_completionis re-added to the logical set after all filtering, and listing it indisabledToolslogs a one-timeconsole.warn. Why it was added is argued in the note below.src/core/task/Task.tsandsrc/core/webview/generateSystemPrompt.tsnow pass the samedisabledTools/modelInfoinputs into prompt generation, so the webview preview matches the runtime prompt.src/core/prompts/tools/filter-tools-for-mode.tsand replaces the per-request MCP existence check with a cheap predicate - both behavior-neutral.#505 - duplicated ~100-word paragraph with hardcoded
/test/path. The same file-tree paragraph appeared in both CAPABILITIES and SYSTEM INFORMATION, and the SYSTEM INFORMATION copy contained a hardcoded/test/pathliteral instead of the real cwd. The paragraph now appears once, cwd-independent, insrc/core/prompts/sections/system-info.ts- kept in SYSTEM INFORMATION rather than moved to CAPABILITIES as the issue suggested, since that is the structural-info home, and thelist_filesguidance sentence lives insrc/core/prompts/sections/capabilities.tswhere it belongs.Notable:
.snapfiles are the expected, deliberate effect of [BUG] System prompt advertises tools that are unavailable in the active mode #1240. The old Architect/Ask snapshots approved the inconsistent output. Restricted-mode prompt text intentionally changes; for modes with the full tool set the text is unchanged.attempt_completion- there is no plain-text completion fallback in the task state machine. IfdisabledToolsor model exclusions removed the tool, the prompt would require a tool that is never sent (exactly the class of bug [BUG] System prompt advertises tools that are unavailable in the active mode #1240 fixes) and the task could never be completed cleanly. The resolver therefore re-adds it to the logical set after all filtering, and runtime validation is aligned so it can never be marked un-callable; disabling it viadisabledToolsis an explicit, one-time-warned no-op rather than a silent one. Supporting actual removal was probably never intended.filter-tools-for-mode.tsis also beyond a pure bug fix. The file was rewritten by this PR to consume the shared policy, and the deleted functions had zero consumers repo-wide (verified by grep) - keeping them would leave a dead API on a file whose purpose in this PR is tool-policy unification.filter-tools-for-mode.ts:no-explicit-any3 -> 1 insrc/eslint-suppressions.json).Test Procedure
cd src && npx vitest run core/prompts core/assistant-message- all green; the working tree stays clean after the run (no snapshot changes).execute_commandor advertises tools the mode lacks.disabledTools: ["execute_command"]: command-execution guidance disappears from the prompt.attempt_completionindisabledToolslogs the one-time warning and the tool remains available.Pre-Submission Checklist
