toolBreakdown text, rather than relying on toolBreakdown’s independent
truncation. Preserve the existing count and breakdown content while ensuring the
emitted headline stays within the event budget, and extend the relevant summary
test with many unrecognised tool names to cover this case.
- Around line 89-118: Change activityLog deduplication to track claim counts
rather than booleans: update newActivityLog to initialize seen as
map[string]int, increment the bucket/value key in add, and decrement it in
withdraw. Remove the list entry and delete the key only when its count reaches
zero, preserving entries still referenced by other calls.
In `@internal/agentsessions/cache.go`:
- Around line 38-51: Update DiscoverAllCached so the discoveryMu lock is held
only while checking the cache and storing results, not while calling the slow
DiscoverAll operation. Unlock before discovery, allow concurrent misses
(including different workspaces) to proceed independently, then re-acquire the

In `@internal/agentsessions/paths.go`:
- Around line 97-117: Update globTranscripts in internal/agentsessions/paths.go
(lines 97-117) to reject matches with symlinked parent components and enforce
containment at open time using a rooted or handle-relative no-follow API,

insufficient. In internal/agentsessions/paths_test.go (lines 78-147), add
coverage where sessions/<slug> symlinks to a directory outside the store and
assert no transcript beneath it is returned.
- Around line 48-60: Update claudeCodeRoot and codexRoot so configured

- Around line 434-444: Update newSessionPicker to retain each session’s raw
update time on pickerItem, including items from both local assembly and
foreignSessionItems, then sort the merged items by recency before building the

than the formatted Label, while preserving per-agent item behavior.
- Around line 515-518: Guard session.UpdatedAt.IsZero() before formatting it, so
zero timestamps do not reach sessionWhen or sessionPickerLabel and produce a
year-1 date. Update the surrounding label logic in the session row path,
preferably by reusing or adding a typed time.Time variant of sessionWhen to
avoid converting the timestamp through RFC3339 text while preserving existing
behavior for populated timestamps.
- Around line 473-479: Move the synchronous agentsessions.Import call out of the
Bubble Tea Update path into a tea.Cmd that performs the import asynchronously
and returns a result message containing the session or error, then handle that

Reviewed as a draft, so this is findings rather than a verdict. The design question you actually asked about is above my pay grade and needs @kevincodex1; what follows is whether the code does what it says.
The credential-safety work is the strongest part and it mostly holds. I checked the claims rather than taking them: the extension pin is case-insensitive, globTranscripts rejects symlinks because IsRegular() is false for them, and I confirmed by probe that a junction is rejected too. Two adversarial passes tried to turn the reparse-point gap into an escape and could not: creating a link under ~/.codex/sessions already requires write access to ~/.codex/sessions, and writing a transcript there directly reaches the same outcome with no link at all. The .jsonl pin plus the rollout-* pin plus Discover gating Import close the residual.
Two blocking, though.
The activity summary is emitted as EventCompaction, whose payload contract it does not satisfy. RehydrateEvents (replay.go:240) scans backwards for the last EventCompaction and restructures the transcript around it. A real CompactionPayload carries PreserveLast, CompactableEvents, PreservedEvents and CompactedThroughSequence — the bookkeeping saying which events the summary replaces. noteEvent writes {"summary": ...} and nothing else, so every one of those is zero, and rehydration reorders the imported transcript around a boundary that describes nothing. It decodes cleanly because the only validated field is Summary. Verified end to end through Import → ReadRehydratedEvents → PrepareExec. You picked the type because promptContextEvents already passes it; the same type has a second contract on the replay side.
Imported text carries control bytes into the terminal. The redaction chokepoint scrubs secrets, not control characters. Probed directly: "innocent title\x1b[2J\x1b[1;1H FORGED ROW \x00 tail" comes back byte-identical, ESC and NUL intact, and that string becomes a picker row and a transcript line. We have shipped this exact class twice in a fortnight: #835, where an MCP failure reason forged a row, and #876, where a copied NUL panicked the whole TUI. An imported title is strictly more attacker-influenced than either. sanitizeCardText already exists.
Two worth fixing before it leaves draft.
TestTheRealCodexCorpusStillParses and TestTheRealCorpusStillParses discover against the real ~/.codex and ~/.claude of whoever runs go test, and assert on what they find. The first fails at your head on this machine (indexed 2 of 2 rollouts; 2 titled, 0 with a model) because these rollouts carry turn_context past the 64-line head budget, which no change to the adapter can fix. CI passes only because the runner has no store to find. That inverts the usual bargain: green on CI, red for contributors. Worth a fixture.
The activity summary collapses successful and failed calls into one bucket per path. A successful Write /p/config.yaml followed by a failed Edit of the same path withdraws the claim entirely, so the summary reports no files changed although the file was rewritten. The withdraw logic is right in principle; it is keyed too coarsely.
Smaller: the family-1 slug fast path skips globSessionDirs, so the picker can list a session Import then refuses; name, toolCallId and role skip redact() while content and arguments get it, so the chokepoint comment is not literally true; capEvents understates the drop by one, and the note is the only thing telling the reader the import is partial; a tool call with no matching result keeps its claim, so an interrupted write reports as a file changed.
Two things I checked and am NOT raising, so you do not chase them. The Title field skipping redaction is real but pre-existing: createSessionTitle on main writes a raw prompt into metadata.json for native sessions too, and zero sessions list redacts at display. Your translate.go redaction is above baseline, not below it. And the reparse-point discovery gap is a documentation inaccuracy rather than a boundary crossing, for the reason above.
The engineering standard here is high: mutation-testing the glob and the redaction, exercising against 302 real sessions, and documenting the two pre-existing main failures instead of claiming a clean run. The two blocking items are both "this type/string has a second contract elsewhere", which is the hardest class to see from inside the change.
|
One correction to the blocking item above, since the sentence ran together: a real The cheapest fix is probably a distinct event type rather than filling in the payload, since the import is not a compaction and pretending otherwise will keep colliding with replay, rewind and lineage. If |
|
Tested the latest head with real local session data. Discovery, CLI import, source tabs, and importing/resuming a selected session all work on the normal path. I found three blockers:
There is also a smaller UX concern: importing a 2,692-event session synchronously blocked the UI for about 0.86s on this machine. Please fix at least the first three before merge. |

Re-reviewed at 8689da21, this time as a verdict rather than notes, since it is out of draft. Ran it on Windows.
Both of my August blockers are properly closed, and I checked rather than took the commit titles.
noteEvent is now EventMessage with a noteEventSummaryKey marker instead of EventCompaction, so it no longer lands on a type whose replay contract it could not satisfy. That was the harder of the two to see, and the fix is the right shape: a marker on a type that has no side effect, rather than a payload padded out to look like a compaction.
Structural fields are redacted now too. role, name and toolCallId all route through redact(), so the chokepoint comment is literally true where it previously was not.
The control-byte fix introduced a different bug, and it is the one I would block on.
func redact(value string) string {
return stripControl(redaction.RedactString(value, redaction.Options{}))
}Redaction runs FIRST and matches by shape. stripControl then deletes the control byte with no separator, so it rejoins. A secret split by one therefore survives redaction and is reassembled afterwards, which is exactly backwards from what the chokepoint promises.
Proven here against the real redact, every key shape and every splitter:
unsplit -> "token [REDACTED] end"
NUL -> "token sk-ant-api03-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA end"
ESC -> "token sk-ant-api03-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA end"
backspace -> "token sk-ant-api03-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA end"
C1 -> "token sk-ant-api03-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA end"
Same for ghp_ and AKIA. The unsplit value redacts correctly, which is what makes this easy to miss: the tests that exist all use unsplit values.
This matters more here than almost anywhere, because the input is a foreign transcript. That is untrusted by construction, and the whole feature is reading it.
The fix is the order, one line:
return redaction.RedactString(stripControl(value), redaction.Options{})I verified that closes it. Every splitter above then gives token [REDACTED] end.
Worth saying plainly that this is the same defect as #835, where an MCP failure reason was redacted before the terminal sanitizer rejoined the halves. Two packages, same ordering, both written to be careful about exactly this. It is a genuinely non-obvious trap, and the general rule is worth writing down somewhere: normalize first, match second, because any normalizer that removes bytes without leaving a gap is also a reassembler. A regression with a split value belongs next to the existing redaction tests.
Still open from August: the real-corpus test fails for anyone with a real store.
--- FAIL: TestTheRealCodexCorpusStillParses
codex_test.go:177: indexed 2 of 2 rollouts; 2 titled, 0 with a model
codex_test.go:187: no session got a model — turn_context is being discarded again
Same failure and same cause as in August: these rollouts carry turn_context past the 64-line head budget. It passes on CI only because the runner has no ~/.codex to discover. That is the wrong way round, green for the robot and red for the contributor, and it is the first thing a new reviewer hits. A fixture pinning the past-the-budget case would make it deterministic and would test the adapter rather than whatever happens to be on the reviewer's disk.
Also, the branch is one commit behind main (cabfeef against 2d2450e9). Worth rebasing so it is reviewed against the tree it will land on.
Everything else I raised as smaller in August has been addressed, and go build ./... and gofmt are clean here.
The standard in this change is high, and both of the hard structural problems I raised were fixed properly rather than papered over. The ordering bug only shows up if you go looking with a split value, so no criticism in it having survived. Happy to re-review quickly.

Pushed // before
return stripControl(redaction.RedactString(value, redaction.Options{}))
// after
return redaction.RedactString(stripControl(value), redaction.Options{})The regression covers three key shapes against five splitters (NUL, ESC, backspace, DEL, C1) and fails against the old order with the intact credential in the output. Two things about the test worth knowing, because both are traps I walked into writing it. The C1 literal was lost somewhere between my editor and the file, leaving an empty splitter, and There is also a newline case, so the fix cannot degrade into "strip everything and call it redaction". A newline survives stripping and therefore separates rather than rejoins, and it is legitimate transcript content. Two items from my review are still open, so this is not ready yet:
The rest of the change is in good shape, and both structural problems from August are properly closed. Shout when the corpus test is fixtured and I will re-run the whole thing here. |

Re-reviewed at 582fa47b. The ordering blocker is properly closed and I checked it rather than reading the commit title.
redact is RedactString(stripControl(value)) now, and redaction_order_test.go is load-bearing. I reverted the one line and ran it:
--- FAIL: TestASecretSplitByAControlByteIsStillRedacted/anthropic_key/NUL
a credential split by NUL was reassembled after redaction and reached the
output: "token sk-ant-api03-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA end"
Every splitter, every shape. That is a test that would have caught the bug, which is the part that usually goes missing. The comment you left on it carries the general rule forward too, which I would rather have than the fix alone.
One thing left, and it is the same one from August.
The real-corpus tests still fail for anyone with a real store, and there are two of them now
--- FAIL: TestTheRealCodexCorpusStillParses
indexed 2 of 2 rollouts; 2 titled, 0 with a model
no session got a model — turn_context is being discarded again
--- FAIL: TestTheRealCorpusStillParses
indexed 15 of 21 real transcripts (71%) — too many are being dropped
Both pass on CI only because the runner has no store to discover. Green for the robot, red for the contributor, and it is the first thing the next reviewer hits before they have read a line of the feature. TestTheRealCorpusStillParses is new since I last looked, so the pattern is spreading rather than being retired.
The fix I would take is a fixture pinning the past-the-budget turn_context case and whatever shape the 6 dropped transcripts have. That tests the adapter instead of testing whatever happens to be on the reviewer's disk, and it turns the 71% into a number that means something. A clean t.Skip when no store exists would at least stop it being a false red, but it would also stop it finding anything, so I would rather have the fixture.
This is the only thing standing between the branch and my approval. Ping me and I will turn it around quickly.
Two smaller things
The branch is 2 behind main, and those two commits are #890 and #903. #903 is the Go 1.26.6 bump, so a rebase clears the vulncheck red on this PR rather than you having to explain it.
Minor, Windows only: internal/agentsessions/testdata/codex-home/sessions/2026/08/01/rollout-2026-08-01T10-00-00-fixture0-0000-0000-0000-000000000001.jsonl is about 130 characters repo-relative. Checking the branch out under a deep parent path fails outright with Filename too long. It checks out fine from a short root, so this is a nit rather than a blocker, but Windows is a required platform and that is not much headroom. Shortening the fixture stem would cost nothing.
Three separate changes hit this in a fortnight, each written by someone being careful about exactly the thing that got them. A transform that removes bytes without leaving a gap is also a reassembler. Redaction that matches by shape, run before a sanitizer that strips control bytes, lets a credential split by a NUL or an ESC pass the patterns as two fragments and be rejoined on the way out: the MCP failure reason in #835, and the imported-transcript chokepoint in #878. The path form of the same mistake is comparing where a handle landed against a value produced by the same resolver the kernel just used, so a redirect agrees with itself: the ACL guard in #808, where junctions were caught only by an accident of Go's mode bits and directory symlinks were not caught at all. The unsplit value passing is what makes it survive review, so the note says the test needs a split case.

@Vasanthdev2004 — all three fixed at I reproduced your numbers exactlyI couldn't reproduce the failure by running the tests, because they pass here — 44 of 44 rollouts with 43 models, 360 of 367 transcripts. That is the bug. Both tests assert statistics over whatever store the machine has, which isn't a property of this package. So I built a store shaped like yours and ran the tests at Your output, verbatim. Against the same store this branch passes and explains itself: What the shapes areThe model. The drops. But there is a real defect behind the same verdict, and nothing distinguishes them in the output. The cwd-bearing record is subject to The two smaller ones

… just the newline Raised by CodeRabbit. The comment said the halves "must NOT become the secret" and nothing checked it. The newline assertion alone passes just as well if the matcher spans the newline and redacts both halves as one, because the separator would survive inside a "[REDACTED]" that ate the text around it. Both halves are now named, and so is the absence of any redaction at all. The failure this guards against is over-redaction: a credential cannot contain a raw newline, so treating a newline-split pair as one destroys legitimate transcript content while protecting nothing. It is also what stops stripControl being widened to strip newlines, which would make the NUL case in the test above pass for the wrong reason. Measured, to pin the three-way distinction: newline -> "before sk-ant-api03-\nAAAA... after" not redacted, halves intact joined -> "before [REDACTED] after" NUL -> "before [REDACTED] after" stripped, so it rejoins Mutation-checked: removing the '\t'/'\n' exemption from stripControl fires all four assertions.

…he reviewer's disk Reported by @Vasanthdev2004: the two real-corpus tests fail for anyone with a real store, and pass on CI only because the runner has none. He is right, and the mechanism is worse than a threshold being too tight. Both tests assert STATISTICS over whatever store the machine running them happens to have, which is not a property of this package. The same code at 582fa47 reported "44 of 44 rollouts, 43 with a model" and "360 of 367 transcripts" here and "0 with a model" and "15 of 21 (71%)" for him. Green for the robot, red for the contributor, and the assertion never ran where a regression would actually land, because CI skips. Reproduced his exact numbers by constructing a store shaped like his and running the tests at 582fa47 against it: codex_test.go:184: no session got a real title codex_test.go:187: no session got a model - turn_context is being discarded again --- FAIL: TestTheRealCodexCorpusStillParses family1_test.go:253: indexed 15 of 21 real transcripts (71%) --- FAIL: TestTheRealCorpusStillParses Against the same store this branch passes and says why: no session in the live store carries a model: every rollout here has its turn_context outside the head budget. TestARolloutWithALateTurnContextIndexes- WithoutAModel pins that shape deterministically (2 rollouts) ## What the shapes actually are Enumerated against the real 44-rollout and 367-transcript stores here. MODEL. turn_context is the only record carrying one; session_meta has no "model" key at all. It lands at line 4-8 and byte offset 15KB-175KB here, comfortably inside the head budget, and outside it on his machine. The session is still listed, titled, addressable and importable - only the label is missing - and Discover walks the whole date-partitioned store on every picker open, so the bounded read is the right trade. The fixture pins the current behaviour rather than asserting recovery, and says in the comment that teaching the index to recover it should fail this test deliberately rather than drift. DROPS. cwd is only ever carried by user, attachment and system records; the preamble types never carry it. All 7 unindexed transcripts here are single bridge-session stubs with no cwd anywhere - legitimate, since a session with no workspace cannot be resumed into one. There is also a real defect behind the same "no cwd" verdict, and nothing distinguishes them in the output: the cwd-bearing record is subject to MaxLineBytes, and a truncated record fails to parse and is skipped whole. That is already happening to the opening user record in 30 of 367 transcripts here; they survive only because Claude Code writes a small attachment next that also carries cwd - 73 of the 360 indexed sessions (20%) take their cwd from an attachment for exactly this reason. One without that rescue would vanish and look like a stub. TestAWorkspaceInAnOverlongRecordIsStillFound pins it; shrinking MaxLineBytes below the record's length drops the session and fails the test. ## Also - Rebased onto main. His note said 2 behind (#890, #903); it was 14 by the time this was done. Clean, and the merged tree builds. - Longest testdata path 133 -> 108 chars for the Windows checkout limit, by shortening the two fixture roots and the rollout stem. The trailing uuid is kept because codexID reads the session id from it. - The live-store tests now report their counts instead of asserting them. They still fail hard on a non-empty store indexing nothing, and on an index entry missing a field the CLI prints - the parts that are about the code. Three mutations, each caught by the test written for it: removing the cwd guard indexes both unresumable stubs; shrinking MaxLineBytes drops the long-cwd session; raising MaxLines lets the head scan reach the late turn_context.

…oreign title cannot repaint the picker All four raised by CodeRabbit on ad57dd3. Two are real defects in this PR's own feature, not test issues. ## The feature was invisible to the user it exists for newSessionPicker gave up on an EMPTY local history: metas, err := m.sessionStore.ListResumable() if err != nil || len(metas) == 0 { return nil } Foreign sessions are discovered independently of the store, so the person with no Zero sessions at all — someone who just installed it and wants to carry on work another agent started — got nil before discovery ran. The import path was reachable only after they had already done by hand the thing it exists to save them. A failed read is still a reason to give up; an empty one is not. Emptiness is now decided after combining both sources, in pickerFromParts, split out so that decision is testable without a session store on disk. ## A foreign title reached the terminal unfiltered registry.go strips control bytes when a session is IMPORTED, and its comment names this picker row as the reason (#835/#876). But the picker lists a session BEFORE anything is imported, reading the title straight out of the other agent's transcript — so the vector that comment describes was the one path the stripping did not cover. An escape repaints the rows above, a carriage return hides the rest of the label, a NUL can truncate the row. sanitizePickerLabel drops control bytes and keeps the printable text: a title that is merely unusual must stay readable, because the row is how the user recognises their own work. ## The live-store test printed the developer's own sessions t.Errorf("incomplete index entry: %+v", session) That walks the REAL store, so a failure put the user's session titles, working directories and file paths into the test output and into any log or pasted report carrying it. It now names which fields are empty, which is the whole diagnostic — the missing value is by definition not the interesting part. NOT taken from the same comment: gating the live-store tests behind an explicit opt-in. @Vasanthdev2004 asked for the opposite in the review this branch is answering — a skip "would also stop it finding anything, so I would rather have the fixture" — and the tests now only report. The data leak was the substantive half and it is fixed. ## The symlink test asserted the weaker half of its property It checked only that Discover and Read AGREE, which passes in two opposite worlds: both correctly refusing a path reached through a symlink, and both happily following it out of the store. Containment is now asserted directly — "sneaky" must not be listed and must not be readable — and agreement is kept afterwards, since that is what the original fast path broke. Not taken, out of scope: three findings in internal/tui/model.go, which this branch does not touch (CodeRabbit marks them "outside diff"). They look real — particularly toolResultSessionPayload persisting displayPreview for a redacted result — and deserve their own issue rather than a drive-by in a draft. Mutations: restoring the len(metas) == 0 return makes the new-user test fail; removing sanitizePickerLabel lets all four control bytes through.

…elds are redacted wherever they are drawn Both P1s from @anandh8x on 0db68be, plus the two CodeRabbit comments that overlap them. ## P1: a full import silently deleted ordinary long messages Both translators passed the DISCOVERY per-line cap to streamLines. 64 KiB is the right budget for the index — it is paid once per file across the entire store — and the wrong one for an import, which is a deliberate one-off read of a single file the user named. A single assistant reply over 64 KiB was truncated into invalid JSON, skipped as unparsable, and Read returned no error. Reproduced on 0db68be with a 65 KiB reply: Read err=<nil>, events=2 [0] {"content":"short question","role":"user"} [1] {"content":"follow up after the big one","role":"user"} The reply is simply gone. That is worse than incomplete: the restored transcript reads as a question, no answer, then the user's follow-up, so the person resuming it and the model continuing it both see a conversation that looks whole. Same call in codex.go, same result. Imports now use importLineLimit (8 MiB) — still bounded, since a corrupt file must not exhaust memory. A record past even that is no longer dropped in silence: readBoundedLineTruncated reports that bytes were discarded, and the translators emit an EventError naming how many records could not be read. It is an error event rather than a message because it is a note about the transcript, not a turn anybody took, and a model continuing the session must not read it as one. ## P1: foreign metadata reached the terminal unsanitized and unredacted formatDiscoveredSessions printed the id, title, branch and model straight out of another product's file. The picker learned to strip control bytes in the last commit, but stripping is not redaction — and a title is very often the user's first prompt, which is exactly where a pasted key ends up. agentsessions.DisplayField does both, in one place, in the order redaction_order_test.go already pins for the transcript path: controls first, so a secret split by an escape byte is reassembled before the shape match runs, then redaction. Newlines go too, unlike the transcript helper, because a metadata field is drawn as one row. sanitizePickerLabel is removed rather than left beside it — one helper doing half the job next to one doing all of it is how the halves drift apart. ## The two nonblocking notes Both reviewers asked for the empty-history case to go through newSessionPicker itself rather than only the extracted pickerFromParts. They were right: pickerFromParts is the piece added while fixing that bug, so testing only it leaves the branch that was actually wrong uncovered at its entry point. NOT done, and not forgotten: sameDir still uses EvalSymlinks plus string equality, which can miss Windows junction and case aliases. That is a real gap and it wants a Windows box to verify rather than an assertion written blind on macOS, so I would rather leave it named than claim it. Four mutations, each caught by its own test: restoring the discovery cap on the import path drops the long reply; removing the marker makes the over-cap record vanish again; DisplayField without redaction leaks the key into the picker row; and redacting BEFORE stripping controls lets a NUL-split key through. go test -race ./internal/agentsessions/ ./internal/tui/: clean.

…six review findings @Vasanthdev2004 on the test I wrote, and six from CodeRabbit. Two of the CodeRabbit ones are bugs I introduced in fea5a56. ## The test claimed coverage it did not have TestAWorkspaceInAnOverlongRecordIsStillFound used a 1 KiB record against a 64 KiB cap — 64x under the boundary it was named for, so it only reacted if the production constant was cut to 512, which no regression would do. And the name asserts the opposite of the behaviour. Measured against the real cap: 1 KiB -> indexed 60 KiB -> indexed 70 KiB -> NOT indexed 200 KiB -> NOT indexed A workspace in a genuinely overlong record is lost. Worse than the misnaming, two comments added beside it told the next reviewer the case was handled, and the header even described the failure mode correctly while the test denied it. Renamed to TestAWorkspaceOnlyInAnOverlongRecordIsLost, driven across all four sizes against defaultHeadLimit.MaxLineBytes rather than a hardcoded number, and asserting what actually happens on each side of the boundary. The comment at family1_test.go now says the two pinned shapes are pinned as different things: "no cwd anywhere" as correct behaviour, "cwd only past MaxLineBytes" as an OPEN defect whose loss is asserted. An honestly named gap beats a test whose name says it is covered. ## Two bugs from the previous commit TERMINATOR COUNTED AS CONTENT. dropped included the trailing newline, so a record whose content exactly filled the cap reported as truncated — and CRLF was one byte worse. The import path emitted "could not be read" for records it had read in full, which is a false alarm in the one signal that exists to be trusted. "\n" content=64 keep=64 -> truncated=true (want false) "\r\n" content=63 keep=64 -> truncated=true (want false) OMITTED-RECORDS WORDING. The marker said "the conversation below" while both translators append it after the events. ## Four more scanHead reported success on every non-EOF read error, so a session indexed off whatever bytes arrived before an I/O failure was indistinguishable from one indexed off a whole file. EOF is now the only clean stop. scanHead opened with os.Open. globTranscripts already refuses a symlink wearing a transcript extension, but that verdict describes the tree at glob time and anything can replace the entry before the open. openContained resolves through an os.Root on the store root, so containment holds at the moment of the read. stripControl and DisplayField now drop category Cf. unicode.IsControl correctly says a format character is not a control character, which is the problem: U+202E reorders everything after it, so "gnp.txt.exe" behind an override renders as an image file while every byte stays innocent. Four CLI output sites now pass through DisplayField — the discovery warning, the parse and import error text, and the imported session id. An error string is not automatically safe: these wrap paths and ids read out of another agent's store. ## On my own mutation discipline The first pass at verifying these fixes found three surviving mutations, because I had fixed three things without regression tests — the same shape of mistake being reviewed above. Tests added for all of them, and the four mutations now fail: counting the terminator breaks 3 boundary cases, swallowing non-EOF errors breaks the read-failure test, dropping Cf lets 10 format characters through, and opening directly reads a file from outside the store root. An earlier run of those mutations reported all-clean because a literal BOM in the new test made the package fail to compile. A mutation against a package that does not build is indistinguishable from a test that holds. go test -race ./internal/agentsessions/ ./internal/tui/: clean. Rebased, 0 behind.

Found while verifying the previous commit rather than in review, which is why it is worth naming: I closed the instance and left the class open. CodeRabbit's finding named scanHead, and scanHead is what I hardened. streamLines sits beside it with the same os.Open and the same untrusted path, and it is the path with more at stake — scanHead only builds a picker row, while streamLines reads a transcript's actual CONTENT and writes it into the user's own Zero session. A symlink swapped in between the glob and the open would have copied whatever it points at into their store. Both Read paths already had adapter.root in hand and were not passing it. Now threaded, so discovery and import resolve through the same os.Root on the store root. Mutation-checked: opening directly again lets the import read a file from outside the root and hands its lines to the caller. go test -race ./internal/agentsessions/: clean.

…ead of losing the session CodeRabbit's answer to the previous commit, and it is the better one: recover the metadata rather than documenting its absence. A record over MaxLineBytes arrives as a prefix, fails json.Unmarshal and is skipped whole. Discarding the BODY is the entire point of the cap — a giant tool result must not be held in memory to build a picker row. But the fields discovery needs sit at the FRONT of the object, before the content that made it oversized, and throwing them away with the body cost the whole session: with no cwd there was no workspace to bind to, so a transcript the user can see on disk vanished from the picker and looked exactly like a legitimate empty stub. topLevelStrings reads cwd, gitBranch and timestamp off the prefix with a json.Decoder token stream. A token stream rather than a regex, because a regex over truncated JSON cannot tell a top-level "cwd" from one nested in a message body or an escaped string that merely looks like a key. The decoder stops cleanly at the cut, so anything recovered was genuinely complete and genuinely top-level, and anything after it is simply absent. Applied ONLY to a truncated line. A genuinely malformed one is still skipped: a live-appended transcript's last line is routinely half-written, and mining fields out of it would invent a workspace from whatever bytes happened to land. TestAWorkspaceInAnOverlongRecordIsRecovered now requires discovery at all four sizes — 1 KiB, 60 KiB, 70 KiB, 200 KiB — with cwd and branch intact, where the previous version asserted the loss. ## A test that could not fail TestAHalfWrittenRecordIsNotMinedForMetadata first put the valid record BEFORE the torn one. session.Cwd was therefore already set, the "only fill what is empty" guard hid any difference, and the test passed against a mutation that mined every unparsable line. Reordered so the torn line comes first; it now fails against that mutation. Both mutations verified: removing the recovery loses the oversized session, and mining every unparsable line takes the torn line's cwd. go test -race ./internal/agentsessions/: clean.

… a failed import from hiding its source P1, reported by @jatmn. ForeignSession metadata is another product's bytes and every reader draws it. Import stored the title through stripControl -- which deliberately keeps newlines, right for a transcript line and wrong for a label drawn as one picker row -- and stored the cwd with no sanitizing at all. Neither was redacted, so a title, usually the user's first prompt and exactly where a pasted key lands, stayed a live secret in the store for each consumer to leak independently. Two of them did: the CLI import summary and the TUI note. Both now route through DisplayField, and so does the store on the way in, which is the chokepoint the per-consumer calls were standing in for. The workspace warning prints the sanitized path while still comparing the recorded one. P2, reported by @jatmn. Import creates the local session and appends its transcript as two steps. An append that failed left a session carrying the import tag and no events -- and the tag alone was enough for the picker to treat the foreign source as already imported and stop offering it, while the loop that builds local rows drops that same session for having no events. Both rows vanished and the import could not be retried, because its source was no longer listed. The two filters now agree on what a real session is: a session with no transcript is not import provenance. Nothing in the store deletes a session and inventing that primitive to unwind an import would hand every caller a destructive operation, so the empty session stays on disk and the error names it. Raised by CodeRabbit: the activity headline applied its character budget to the tool breakdown alone, so a session full of unrecognised tool names assembled a ~510 character note on top of it and summarizePayload cut it mid-sentence -- the exact failure maxSummaryEventChars exists to prevent. The budget now applies to the assembled line. The other two CodeRabbit findings on this head were already closed here: readBoundedLine no longer exists unused (it became readBoundedLineTruncated with two callers, which is what the Linux and Windows checks failed on), and fileModTime takes root and stats the handle openContained returned, with TestFileModTimeRefusesASymlinkOutOfTheRoot covering the replaced-symlink case.
…ends on it Seven findings from @jatmn, all one shape: a property proved at the helper where an earlier report pointed, then lost where another function changed the representation, identity or state that proof rested on. Tool arguments are sanitized as decoded values, not as serialized bytes. A JSON-escaped path held no ESC byte and no key prefix while encoded, so the sanitizer passed it whole and the TUI's argHint decoded it on resume into a live escape and a complete PAT in the tool row. toolCallEvent, the one constructor both adapters use, now decodes, redacts every string leaf and re-encodes; free-form Codex scripts stay text. Redaction runs on both sides of control stripping. Stripping assembles a key split by a control byte (already covered) and also erases the word boundary an intact key needs when the control sits just before it, so "progress\rsk-ant-..." survived messageEvent. Both directions now hold at once. Foreign Windows paths are compared without resolver I/O. The TUI's sessionMatchesWorkspace ran EvalSymlinks before its Windows branch, so a transcript cwd of \\server\share\repo could dial the share from the Update loop while formatting the post-import note or filtering the picker. It now delegates to the lexical, case-insensitive policy discovery already uses. The reference-only boundary survives the resume digest. The boundary note was an ordinary message and the digest keeps the last 80, so any import of 80 or more turns lost it on the first resume while keeping every foreign turn. Every imported event now carries a marker and FormatExecPrompt regenerates the label from the retained window when the note itself is gone -- derived from the events that are present rather than from one event surviving truncation, compaction or a fork. The 80-event budget is unchanged. Pi is parsed with Pi's schema. It shares family 1's directory layout and not its message vocabulary (toolCall blocks with object arguments, a separate toolResult role with isError, an outer type of "message" on every entry), so routing it through the Claude parser dropped every call and result and titled every session "untitled". pi.go carries the vendor's parsing; bounded reading, event construction, redaction, the reasoning opt-in and the activity summary stay shared. A late picker result cannot switch a running session. Bare /resume checked m.pending at dispatch only; the asynchronous result installed the picker regardless and a selection then switched activeSession under a live run whose completion appended into the other conversation. Results are now bound to the request generation and originating session and refused while a run is active, and the selection route rechecks on its own before any mutation. Discovery stays asynchronous. The file that was verified is the file that is read. Read validated the selected path through one handle, translated through a second open and validated through a third; a writer that swapped the entry between those lookups had B's bytes accepted under A's provenance. One handle is now opened and proved against the discovery snapshot, read, and proved again on the same handle after the last byte. Rooted open, regular-file check and bounded extent are unchanged. Each fix carries a regression at the consumer where the property has to hold, and each was confirmed to fail with the fix reverted.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I found six issues that need to be addressed before this is ready. The feature has a useful, coherent purpose: continue work from another agent's local transcripts using Zero's own provider and controls. The corrections below stay within that purpose.
The recurring problem is that a property established at one stage does not survive the next transformation or lifecycle step. I have included the failing path, its root cause, the required outcome, and regression guidance for each finding so the next revision can address the whole affected contract together.
Merge readiness
At the reviewed snapshot, head 0996dac2 uses merge base 7f5e5af7; main is 1e4db7c6, two commits ahead with #1017 and #1025. GitHub reports a clean textual merge and all checks pass. Those commits have no changed-file overlap or release-metadata conflict with this PR. The PR is blocked by requested changes and approval requirements.
Please rebase onto the current target and validate the resulting head, as required by the repository's fresh-base policy. This is separate from the six code/test findings below. The rebase itself does not resolve them.
Findings
1. [P1] Preserve object-aware redaction when decoding tool arguments
Location: internal/agentsessions/translate.go:166-199, especially the map traversal at lines 195–199.
Failure and impact
redactArguments decodes JSON and calls redactJSONValue. The map branch processes each value independently and leaves every property name untouched. That loses two kinds of information that matter to redaction:
- A value can be sensitive because of its key. For
{"password":"opaque-secret-review-123"}, the isolated stringopaque-secret-review-123has no credential shape. Itspasswordcontext has disappeared, so it survives. - A property name can itself contain a credential. A nested key consisting of
ghp_followed by 36As survives without passing through redaction at all, including when its characters were JSON-escaped in the source.
A completed synthetic Claude import writes both examples into its durable tool-call arguments. This is an ingress/persistence failure: the imported event log contains credentials that the package promises to scrub. The finding does not depend on claiming that every stored tool argument is subsequently sent to a provider.
Root cause
Decoded-string sanitization and object-aware secret redaction are different obligations. Decoding exposes escaped string contents, but walking only string values discards the key/value relationship. The existing shared redactor already has sensitive-key and map-key handling; the new traversal bypasses those semantics.
The affected path is:
foreign structured arguments
→ toolCallEvent
→ redactArguments / redactJSONValue
→ Store.AppendEvents
→ durable tool-call payload
All adapters using this constructor inherit the same gap. Fixing one vendor's parser or one display consumer would leave the common ingress incomplete.
Required outcome
Sanitize the decoded object with its key/value context intact, including credential-bearing property names, before durable persistence. Reuse the existing sensitive-key policy where appropriate. Keep ordinary schema keys usable, preserve valid JSON and ordinary argument values, and retain protection against decoded controls and escaped credentials. Free-form Codex inputs must continue through their text path.
The implementation is your choice; a new sanitizer per adapter is unnecessary. Also, replacing this helper with a shared redactor needs verification of the control-normalization behavior in finding 2 rather than an assumption that either helper alone covers both contracts.
Regression guidance
Use a synthetic import containing an opaque password under a sensitive key and a credential-bearing nested property name. Read the stored events back, decode the stored arguments, and assert the credentials are absent. Include nested objects/arrays, an escaped credential, and ordinary keys such as path and command whose values must remain readable. Testing only the encoded JSON representation can miss what a later decoder exposes.
2. [P1] Handle combined separator removal and split credentials
Location: internal/agentsessions/translate.go:66-71; the corresponding display path is DisplayField at lines 663–683.
Failure and impact
Use this synthetic input, where <NUL> denotes an actual NUL character:
progress<NUL>ghp_ + 18 A characters + <NUL> + 18 A characters
Both redact and DisplayField return progressghp_ followed by 36 As. The complete credential-shaped token survives and can enter persisted transcript fields or displayed metadata.
The sequence is deterministic:
- The first redaction pass sees a token interrupted by the second NUL, so the complete credential pattern does not match.
- Normalization removes both NULs. It joins the credential's halves and joins the preceding word to the credential prefix.
- The second redaction pass sees the complete token, but its leading word-boundary condition is now false.
Root cause
Normalization can change several boundaries in the same value. The two existing cases—an intact token after a removable separator, and a token split internally by a removable character—do not establish safety when those conditions occur together. Adding a pass on each side of normalization does not by itself preserve the information the matcher needs.
Required outcome
For the control classes already handled here, normalization must not assemble and expose a recognized credential while also erasing the boundary needed to detect it. Apply the corrected behavior to both transcript and display paths.
Keep the existing legitimate-text behavior: transcript tabs/newlines and readable surrounding text must survive according to their current policy. A global relaxation of shared regex boundaries could redact unrelated ordinary text, so any matcher change needs those preservation controls. This finding does not require arbitrary Unicode normalization or a new credential-detection policy.
Regression guidance
Add the combined input above to both helpers, then carry it through a persisted message/tool result and a displayed metadata field. Assert directly on decoded strings. Keep the separate intact-after-separator and split-inside-token tests as controls, along with ordinary text and permitted whitespace. Exercise representative control classes the implementation already removes so the correction addresses the transformation rule rather than only a literal NUL example.
3. [P1] Keep raw workspace identity out of search JSON
Location: new Metadata.WorkspaceKey at internal/sessions/store.go:102 and its producer at internal/agentsessions/registry.go:213.
Affected consumer: internal/search/search.go:249-260, reached through internal/cli/observability.go:133.
Failure and impact
Import a transcript whose message contains hello and whose cwd contains a credential-shaped path component. Then run:
zero search hello --json
The output contains a safely redacted cwd alongside the complete credential in hits[].session.workspaceKey. For example, the display field becomes /work/[REDACTED], while the operational field retains /work/ plus the original ghp_ token.
The path is:
ImportSource writes raw WorkspaceKey and display-safe Cwd
→ search.Sessions copies Metadata into Hit.Session
→ RedactResult calls redactMetadata
→ redactMetadata sanitizes Cwd but omits WorkspaceKey
→ runSearch serializes the result
Root cause and attribution
The new field is deliberately an exact operational identity. Its declaration explicitly says never to render it directly. Adding it to a struct that an existing result embeds also adds it to that result's JSON representation. The existing field-by-field redactor was not extended for the new field.
Although the search implementation itself is unchanged, this PR introduces the field and the foreign-data producer that make the leak reachable. Previously there was no WorkspaceKey to bypass the Cwd redaction.
Required outcome
Omit or sanitize the presentation copy before search JSON is emitted. Keep the persisted operational value exact: changing it to [REDACTED] would break the workspace-identity separation this PR deliberately introduced.
An explicit public projection or a complete sanitized copy can satisfy this requirement. The scope is the existing consumers of the changed metadata contract. The session-list/tree snapshot projections already provide useful examples of separating stored metadata from output; this is not a request to redesign every API response.
Regression guidance
Exercise real import → stored metadata reload → runSearch --json. Assert both that the output omits the credential and that the stored WorkspaceKey still matches the original workspace identity. Search must still return the expected hit. Checking Cwd alone or testing the import summary alone misses the leaking sibling field.
4. [P2] Preserve imported provenance through real compaction
Location: internal/sessions/exec_session.go:231-246.
Affected transformation: CompactionPayloadFromPlan in internal/sessions/replay.go:205-225, used by the TUI compaction path.
Failure and impact
Import a short conversation, then append enough native continuation events that the preserved compaction tail contains only native events. With the TUI's six-event preserved tail, the entire imported prefix and its boundary can be compacted away.
The actual plan/record/rehydrate path then produces:
before: imported boundary + marked imported events + native tail
compaction: summary of earlier work + preserved native tail
after reload: unmarked summary + native tail
CompactionPayloadFromPlan does not carry either import marker. importedContextLabel therefore sees no imported material, even though the retained summary still contains foreign-derived history, and emits no reference-only label.
A valid summary response that describes the earlier work without repeating the boundary reproduces this. The failure does not require the summarizer to behave unusually; there is no deterministic mechanism requiring it to preserve that exact warning text.
Root cause
The source events carry provenance, but the derived event replacing them does not. The current guard answers whether a retained payload has a marker. That becomes insufficient when a transformation preserves the information while discarding the marked payloads.
This is the lifecycle that needs to hold:
marked imported events
→ compaction plan / summary creation
→ persisted summary
→ rehydrate / resume / fork
→ reference-only label while derived foreign context remains
Required outcome
Preserve enough durable provenance through the summary transformation for resumed context to remain explicitly reference-only. The property needs to survive repeated compaction and the existing fork/reload paths that carry that summary.
Keep the current distinction between a retained window containing foreign-derived context and a window containing only native context. An unconditional rule based solely on the session's import tag would over-label later native-only windows and would not express which retained content actually needs the boundary. The storage mechanism is your choice; this does not require reconstructing the foreign agent's process or provider-native conversation.
Regression guidance
Use a deterministic summarizer response that retains a foreign fact but omits the boundary wording. Run the real plan/record/rehydrate path, reload persisted state, and build the resume prompt. Require the reference-only label. Extend that scenario through another compaction and a fork carrying the summary. Keep native-only and fully aged-out imported-context controls to ensure the fix does not permanently attach the label to unrelated continuation.
5. [P2] Restore locally selected ACP models on imported sessions
Location: internal/acp/agent.go:207-209.
Affected write path: updateModel → Store.UpdateModel at internal/acp/agent.go:490-500.
Failure and impact
With a provider configuration that permits the selected model:
- Load a modern imported session with an explicit client cwd. Its foreign model is provenance in
SourceModelID. - Select
local-choicethroughsession/set_config_option. The request succeeds andUpdateModelsaves the selection in operationalModelID. - Start a fresh ACP agent and load the same session again.
- The returned current model is the workspace default, even though
ModelIDstill contains the locally selected value.
This differs from the existing native-session contract, whose tests require a permitted local selection to survive a fresh load. The user sees a successful saved selection that silently stops being honored on reconnect/restart.
Root cause
The load guard treats the session's foreign origin as a permanent reason to ignore its operational model field. That conflates where the session came from with who made a later model selection.
The distinction already exists conceptually: source metadata is provenance; a successful local model-selection request is an operational action. The missing step is preserving that distinction in the data the loader uses to decide authority.
Required outcome
Honor an explicitly persisted local ACP selection when restoring the imported session, subject to the existing provider/model restrictions. Preserve the protection against automatically activating foreign or legacy source models.
Simply deleting !imported could restore the legacy trust problem. Likewise, retaining the import tag should not erase a later local choice. Choose a representation/restore rule that distinguishes those cases; this is a focused persistence fix, not a change to global provider selection or workspace defaults.
Regression guidance
Cover fresh Agent instances, not just repeated calls against the same in-memory session. Verify initial import uses local configuration, a permitted client selection survives restart, and legacy foreign ModelID metadata still cannot select a model automatically. Retain the native-session and model-restriction controls. Where the standard and _zero model-selection routes share updateModel, ensure that common write path records the information the loader needs.
6. [P2] Isolate every test that now discovers foreign sessions
Location: internal/tui/model_test.go:1033 and internal/cli/sessions_import_test.go:144-145.
Failure and impact
TestResumeCommandListsRecentSessions and TestResumePickerSelectionHydratesSession execute foreign discovery without setting AgentSessionsEnv. Their helper isolates only the Zero session store. newModel therefore uses OSEnv, and the discovery command opens the developer's foreign transcript stores. A matching foreign session also changes the picker row count that the tests expect.
The CLI tests have a related gap: they set HOME and CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR but leave an absolute inherited CODEX_HOME active. A synthetic non-default Codex store is opened by TestRunSessionsDiscoverFiltersAgentAndWritesJSON even when its transcript cwd does not match the test workspace. Discovery scans before workspace/agent filtering; an empty final result is not evidence that the external store was untouched.
On Windows, home resolution also requires accounting for USERPROFILE; changing HOME alone does not isolate every default root.
Root cause and attribution
The tests' dependencies expanded when the picker gained foreign discovery, but their environment setup did not expand with them. Injecting the Zero store no longer covers all filesystem roots the exercised code resolves. The separate live-corpus opt-in protects those explicit corpus tests; it does not protect ordinary tests calling the same production discovery path.
This is a concrete privacy and test-determinism problem introduced by the new dependency. Discovery is read-only; the finding is about reading private transcripts and depending on their presence, not a claim that these tests modify the foreign stores.
Required outcome
Use the existing AgentSessionsEnv injection for every TUI test that executes discovery. For CLI tests using the process environment, isolate all relevant home and redirect inputs for the platform, including CODEX_HOME and CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR. Keep deliberate real-corpus access behind its explicit opt-in.
Apply the setup to the callers that reach discovery, including older tests whose code path changed. Preserve production root resolution. If tests vary the injected environment for the same cwd, use unique test workspaces or the existing cache invalidation mechanism so cached results cannot mask a root-isolation mistake.
Regression guidance
Run the affected tests with a synthetic inherited redirect pointing to a separate synthetic store and verify that ordinary tests remain confined to their intended fixtures. Also run them alongside neighboring picker/import tests to expose shared-cache or environment dependence. No developer transcript store is needed for this validation. Platform-specific home inputs should be covered by the test setup or existing environment seams rather than an assertion inferred from Linux alone.
Why the feedback keeps recurring
There are several distinct defects here, but they follow a common engineering pattern: a local fix establishes an invariant at one point, while another representation or lifecycle stage still uses an older assumption.
| Established property | Transition that loses it | Findings |
|---|---|---|
| Imported arguments are redacted | Decoding/traversal drops key context; normalization changes multiple token boundaries | 1, 2 |
| Display metadata is safe while workspace identity stays exact | A result embeds the complete stored metadata and exposes the new raw field | 3 |
| Foreign history is labeled as reference-only | Compaction replaces marked source events with an unmarked summary | 4 |
| Source model metadata cannot select a runtime model | The origin guard also suppresses a later authorized local selection during reload | 5 |
| Tests use synthetic state | An existing test now reaches additional stores through production defaults | 6 |
This explains why a regression for the previously reported example can pass while a related consumer still fails. The individual tests often prove one representation, one stage, or one environment. They need a small number of tests that preserve the same obligation across the actual transitions above.
The remedy is to make these six contracts explicit and verify their complete paths. Broadening the importer or repeatedly adding isolated checks at whichever output failed last would increase the maintenance surface without closing those paths.
Suggested approach for the next revision
1. Treat the six findings as one bounded acceptance set
Before changing production code, add or extend regressions that reach each failure above. Confirm they fail for the stated reason on 0996dac2. For example, the compaction regression must actually replace all imported events, and the ACP regression must create a fresh Agent. A test that exits earlier or only exercises an in-memory helper cannot establish those properties.
Keep the existing positive controls. A correction is incomplete if it hides a secret by dropping all tool arguments, avoids an export leak by corrupting the stored workspace identity, or preserves one model choice by trusting every imported model.
2. Repair each shared contract at the appropriate boundary
The ownership is reasonably small:
- Shared argument/text ingress owns decoded-object redaction and normalization safety.
- Output projection owns whether operational metadata may be serialized for display.
- Summary creation/persistence owns the provenance of information replacing source events.
- Model selection and restore jointly own the distinction between a local choice and source provenance.
- Test setup owns every environment root reached by the exercised production path.
Use shared helpers where the invariant is actually shared, and keep vendor parsing in the adapters. A short table in existing comments, tests, or the PR explanation can record these responsibilities. There is no need for a new framework or a repository-wide refactor to satisfy this review.
3. Prove the lifecycle once, with targeted preservation checks
These are completion criteria for the six findings, not additional feature requests:
| Scenario | Required result | Behavior to preserve |
|---|---|---|
| Structured arguments → completed import → stored arguments decoded | Sensitive-key values and credential-bearing keys are scrubbed | Ordinary argument lookup and existing decoded-control protection |
| Combined control-separated/split token → transcript and display paths | No assembled credential is exposed | Readable text and existing whitespace policy |
| Secret-shaped cwd → import → search JSON | Export contains no raw credential | Stored workspace identity and search hit remain correct |
| Import → native continuation → real compaction → persisted reload/fork → resume | Retained foreign-derived summary remains labeled | Native-only windows do not acquire a permanent import warning |
| Import → ACP load → local model choice → fresh ACP load | Permitted local choice is restored | Foreign/legacy model metadata remains non-authoritative |
| Ordinary discovery tests under synthetic inherited redirects | Only intended fixture roots are read | Explicit live-corpus opt-in and production discovery behavior |
Small synthetic fixtures and the existing store/provider/environment seams are sufficient. Reuse fixtures where that improves consistency, but keep failures attributable to a specific contract rather than building one large test that obscures which step broke.
4. Check the affected consumers together before requesting another review
For each changed helper or field, inspect its current direct consumers and the persistence/restore counterpart. In this PR that includes the shared adapter constructors, search output, compaction/replay, ACP model loading, and every test that now executes foreign discovery. This is the bounded companion check that prevents fixing the named instance while leaving the same contract incomplete elsewhere.
Run the affected packages together under the repository-pinned Go version, including agentsessions, sessions, acp, tui, cli, and the affected search/snapshot consumers. Use the repository's race, formatting, vet, build, smoke and security gates as applicable. Report unrelated baseline/environment failures separately with evidence rather than expanding this PR to fix them.
In the next response, please map each of the six findings to the final corrective change and a regression that fails without it. For platform behavior that was only checked through a seam or compilation, say which evidence is available. That gives the next review a concrete, complete set to assess instead of six isolated claims that a particular example now passes.
Scope boundaries for these corrections
The agreed feature remains bounded, one-way local transcript import followed by continuation under Zero's own provider and workspace controls. The feedback preserves that model, the existing workspace-scoping choices, exact internal provenance, native session behavior, and deliberate live-corpus opt-in.
The acceptance set above does not require new agent support, foreign process/active-branch restoration, a new policy for tiny event budgets, global provider-routing changes, or broad persistence migrations. If a proposed fix needs one of those product changes, separate that decision from the concrete correction here. The aim is to close the six demonstrated contracts thoroughly in the next revision, without creating another round of scope-driven findings.

Summary
Zero can now read the sessions other coding agents leave on the local disk — Claude Code, Codex, Factory Droid and Pi — list them, and continue that work in Zero.
In the TUI,
/resumegains a tab strip (All · zero · claude-code · codex · factory · pi) and lists un-imported sessions directly — choosing one imports and resumes in a single step.Draft, and deliberately so. There is no parent issue yet. Opening this to make the design concrete before asking for one, because the neighbourhood is sensitive — see Scope below.
Scope: how this differs from #399
#399 (
internal/agentcli) was closed on a deliberate design line: Zero talks to model APIs directly, does not wrap other vendors' CLIs, and does not reuse another product's subscription login. That closure invited "a narrow, self-contained slice… with no subprocess harness and no borrowed-identity tokens".This is that slice:
claude/codexbinariesImport is strictly one-way: nothing is written to, moved in, or locked in another agent's store.
Why it is small
sessions.FormatExecPrompt— behind bothzero exec --resumeand the TUI's/resume— renders the event log to a text digest rather than rehydrating a provider-native conversation. So an importer never has to reconstructtool_use/tool_resultpairs into Anthropic- or OpenAI-shaped messages. It only has to emit ZeroEventrecords, after which resume, fork, rewind, compaction, lineage and the picker all work unchanged.Four agents cost two parsers: Claude Code, Factory Droid and Pi independently converged on the same layout, so one family-1 parser serves all three. Codex needs its own (date-partitioned, payload-wrapped).
Credential safety
Every one of the surveyed agents keeps live credentials in the same tree as its transcripts —
~/.codex/auth.json(OPENAI_API_KEY + OAuth),~/.gemini/oauth_creds.json,~/.claude/.credentials.json,~/.grok/auth.json,~/.factory/auth.v2.key, and~/.pi/agent/auth.json, which is the direct sibling of~/.pi/agent/sessions/.So discovery is fixed-depth globs pinned to one extension, never
filepath.WalkDir; symlinks are rejected byLstat(a link namedx.jsonlpointing atauth.jsonotherwise passes the extension check); and a session id is resolved by comparing glob results, never by joining the id onto a root, so../../authmatches nothing.Imported text is untrusted input and passes through
internal/redactionat a single chokepoint.Both properties are mutation-tested: swapping the glob for a walk, or gutting the redaction call, each fail a test.
Tool work reaching the model
sessions.promptContextEventspasses messages but notEventToolCall/EventToolResult. Without help, a 22-event import gave the continuing model 2 messages and ~1,155 characters — no knowledge that any file had been touched.Zero's own compaction cannot substitute:
toolPayloadPreviewallow-listsid/name/toolName/statusand dropsargumentsandoutput, so a summariser learns that a Read failed but never which file or why. Those values are still in hand at translation time.So the translator emits an activity summary as
EventMessagesoRehydrateEventsdoes not treat it as a conversation compaction — one event per category, each under the digest's 500-character per-event budget.promptContextEventsis untouched; native resumes are unaffected.A call whose result failed withdraws its claim, so a Read of a path that does not exist is never reported as a file that was read.
Behaviour changes to existing code
internal/tui/model_test.go: the session-picker assertion moves fromMeta == ""to "Meta must not contain the session id, and must name the source agent". That check has always been about keeping the raw id out of the row; empty-string was a proxy for it.applyQuerygains a tab filter that is a no-op for every picker without a tab strip (covered by a test).Verification

Resume continues the work, not the process: the conversation, tool activity, cwd, branch and last state in flight are recoverable; the other agent's in-memory context, prompt cache and half-executed tool call are not. The activity summary is an activity log, not comprehension — it says what was done, never why.
Every one of these formats is a private, undocumented implementation detail of another product and will drift. That recurring maintenance, not the initial build, is the real cost — hence one small adapter per agent, each independently skippable, each pinned to checked-in fixtures so a format change fails a test rather than a user's import.
