Reviewed at b9455679. The feature is worth having and the persisted-workspace binding is the right instinct. One thing to fix, and it is the kind that only shows up on someone else's machine.
Two spellings of one directory are two different workspaces
Both new comparisons are string equality on the output of ResolveWorkspaceRoot, and that resolver is abs plus filepath.Clean plus a stat. It does not fold case and does not resolve junctions, so the same directory under a different spelling produces a different root:
real -> ...\001\proj
junction -> ...\001\aliaslink sameFile=true stringEqual=false
os.SameFile says these are one directory. The code says they are two. A session persisted from the TUI is then unresumable from an editor that holds a different spelling of the project folder, and session/list filtered by the other spelling returns nothing, so it is not merely a failed resume but an invisible one.
This fails closed rather than open, which is why I am calling it P2 rather than a security finding: it blocks legitimate resumes, it does not admit foreign ones. But it lands exactly on the case this PR exists for, surfacing desktop sessions in an editor, and the two processes are the two most likely to disagree about spelling.
filepath.EvalSymlinks is not the fix on Windows. I went through this on #901: it normalises a drive letter but returns a junction path unchanged, so the alias case survives. Junctions also need no privilege, so this is not an exotic setup. What works is a filesystem-identity comparison, os.SameFile on the two resolved roots, or GetFinalPathNameByHandle if you want a canonical string to store. #901 has a physicalSandboxPath that does the latter and could be lifted if you want it.
The test cannot see any of this
TestACPLoadAndResumeStayBoundToThePersistedWorkspace inherits testDeps, whose resolver is func(cwd string) (string, error) { return cwd, nil }. Under an identity resolver the new guard degenerates to "are these two strings different", fed two unrelated temp directories, so it can only ever answer yes. The rejection direction is pinned and the acceptance direction, same directory under a valid alternative spelling, is asserted nowhere.
The workspaceB + "/." case in the list test has the same shape: filepath.Clean already folds that one, so it passes without touching the resolver's real behaviour.
A test here needs the production resolver, or a stub that reproduces its actual normalisation. Otherwise this guard is protected by a comparison that cannot fail.
Smaller
No new test pins the wire keys this adds, so a rename of sessionCapabilities, messageId or the session fields would break clients silently and stay green. Worth one assertion on the marshalled JSON, since these are an external contract rather than internal names.
gnanam's #914 lands the same fix and does more with it: the replayed messages carry stable ids derived from the store's event ids, session/load replays while session/resume deliberately does not, and both are capability-gated. Keeping a second, weaker replay here would have meant a conflict in handleSessionLoad and translate.go for no gain. translate.go is back to its state on main. What remains are the three defects #914 does not touch: the permission option that could not be accepted, the cancel that arrived as an internal error, and the two options labelled the same.
|
Nice — the stable message ids are the part I'd have got wrong. I was carrying a replay fix in #915 from the desktop side and dropped it: yours derives the id from the store's event id so a second load reproduces the same ones, and keeping session/resume replay-free is the right call for a client that still holds the transcript. Mine did neither. #915 is now three defects that don't overlap you — none of them touch permission.go or stopReasonFor:
Only overlap left is agent.go, two hunks nowhere near handleSessionLoad — should merge either order. Happy to rebase on you if you land first. One thing worth checking on your side: does session/list surface enough for a client to show a session before opening it? I'm wiring zero:// deep links to resume on the desktop and right now I only have the id. |

Reviewed at ca7074e4. sameWorkspace is right, and I checked it against a real junction rather than reading it:
same spelling -> true
junction vs real -> true
real vs junction -> true
different dirs -> false
nonexistent vs real -> false
Both directions, and it does not over-match: two genuinely different directories stay different, and a path that does not exist does not become equal to one that does. The comment carrying the EvalSymlinks caveat forward is worth having, because that is the fix everyone reaches for first and it does not work here.
One thing left, and it is the test rather than the code.
The new test cannot run on the platform the bug is from
TestACPResumesAcrossTwoSpellingsOfOneWorkspace builds its alias with os.Symlink, which needs a privilege an ordinary Windows session does not hold:
--- SKIP: TestACPResumesAcrossTwoSpellingsOfOneWorkspace
cannot create a directory alias here: A required privilege is not held by the client.
So it exercises the symlink case on Linux and macOS, and skips on Windows, which is where junctions exist and where this bug came from. The guard you just wrote is verified by CI on the two platforms that did not have the problem.
mklink /J needs no privilege and is what I used to find this in the first place. A Windows arm using that, alongside the symlink arm you have, closes it. There is a working example in #901's runtime_root_alias_test.go if you want the shape.
I am flagging this rather than waving it through because it is the third time this week a fix has been correct and its test unable to run where the fix matters, twice in my own branches. It is not a nit, it is how a guard quietly stops guarding.
Everything else here is good, and the identity comparison is the right call rather than the expedient one.

The ACP wire shapes, load/replay versus resume behavior, stable message IDs, notification ordering, and filesystem-identity workspace comparison are sound. One core session/list contract issue remains:
[P1] Resolve and validate every persisted workspace before listing it, even when no cwd filter was supplied. The current loop skips only blank item.Cwd. It therefore advertises a session whose nonblank persisted workspace no longer exists, even though session/resume rejects it, and it can emit a relative value such as "." even though ACP requires SessionInfo.cwd to be absolute.
I reproduced both on da09489: an unfiltered list contained a deleted/nonexistent workspace, and returned Cwd: "." for a relative legacy entry. Resolve each item's persisted cwd unconditionally, omit entries that cannot resolve to an existing workspace, use the resolved absolute root in SessionInfo, then apply the optional filesystem-identity filter. The ACP package otherwise passes under the race detector.

Re-reviewed at 0777f126. Closed, and you got ahead of me on the second half.
The junction arm runs here now instead of skipping:
--- PASS: TestACPResumesAcrossTwoSpellingsOfOneWorkspace (0.06s)
It is load-bearing. Breaking sameWorkspace back to plain string equality kills it on all three assertions, which is the right blast radius for that guard:
session/load under an alias of the persisted workspace failed: session cwd does not match its persisted workspace
session/resume under an alias of the persisted workspace failed: session cwd does not match its persisted workspace
session/list filtered by an alias of its own workspace returned 0 sessions without it
I had written up the unfiltered-list gap as a follow-up before 0777f126 landed: session/resume refuses on three conditions and the list was only checking the first, so a session whose workspace had been deleted was still being advertised. You closed it, and you found a shape I had not, the legacy relative path being reported as cwd "." when ACP wants an absolute one. Returning the resolved root rather than the stored string is the better answer to both.
That one is load-bearing too. Reverting to filter-only resolution:
agent_test.go:1036: a session whose workspace no longer exists was advertised; resume would refuse it
agent_test.go:1044: session relative-ws was listed with a relative cwd "."; ACP requires an absolute path
Package is clean under -race, CI is green. Approving.
Worth saying plainly since I have been leaning on you about this: the guard, the test that can run where the bug lives, and the follow-through on your own stated principle all came in the right order here.

I found two issues that need to be addressed before this is ready.
The latest change fixes the hard-error turn commit, repaired-history reload, and resume warning behavior from my previous review. Those fixes stand. The two findings below concern the new historical tool replay and the accepted requirement that resume fail when recorded context cannot be restored. I have included the failure paths, root causes, and acceptance criteria together so the next revision can address each contract completely.
Merge readiness
- Rebase onto current
mainbefore merge. Reviewed headbaac428aa3a0is based on1b5db1765672, three commits behind capturedmainatf30f550e6037. That includes ACP browser metadata and safe-title changes from #1000, plus #1009 and #805. Preserve those upstream changes and validate the combined ACP behavior. At the captured state, GitHub reported no conflicts and all reported checks passed, but the PR was blocked by review requirements.
This is target-branch drift, separate from the two code findings.
Findings
[P2] Give each replayed tool invocation a distinct session identity
internal/acp/agent.go:988–990, with result correlation at line 997 and replay tracking in loadHistory at lines 903–915.
Failure path and evidence. Gemini creates fresh stream state for each completion (internal/providers/gemini/provider.go:165) and synthesizes IDs such as gemini_tool_1 when the provider supplies no ID (lines 293–296). The runtime collector preserves these nonempty IDs. Separate completions in an ordinary conversation can therefore persist different tool invocations with the same raw ID. TUI transcript projection already accounts for this through per-occurrence disambiguation; the saved payloads retain their original provider IDs.
The new ACP replay copies that raw ID into each start and result. I reproduced this through session/load using a stored read_file call/result pair followed by a separate grep call/result pair, both with raw ID gemini_tool_1. The emitted starts had IDs [gemini_tool_1, gemini_tool_1], and both results reused that same identity. There were two starts and two results, but no distinct identity for the second invocation.
ACP requires tool-call identities to be unique within a session. A client using that identity to correlate updates cannot distinguish these invocations; it can merge their rows or apply the second result to the first row. The reproduction verifies the emitted protocol collision; I have not independently exercised the unavailable desktop client to establish its exact rendering. ACP tool-call contract
Root cause and attribution. A provider's per-completion correlation ID is being treated as a session-wide replay identity. The seenToolCalls set records whether a raw ID has appeared, but cannot represent separate occurrences of that ID. Consequently, fixing only the start's ID would leave result correlation incorrect. The PR introduces the historical consumer that makes this a replay defect: merge-base and captured target do not emit historical tool updates. The older live ACP identity behavior is outside this finding.
Requested correction. Give each stored invocation a deterministic replay identity and carry the mapping from that invocation's start to its result while projecting the effective event history. An identity derived from the persisted call event, with the existing legacy-history fallback where needed, is one possible approach; the required outcome is distinct invocations and correctly paired updates. The same unchanged history should produce the same identities on a subsequent load. Keep this mapping in replay; persisted provider IDs do not need rewriting.
Acceptance criteria. Add a regression through the load handler and inspect the emitted updates:
- Two completed invocations reuse a raw provider ID but have different names and outputs. Their replay identities differ, and each result targets its own start.
- Loading that unchanged history again produces the same identities and pairing.
- Legacy
idpayloads and currenttoolCallIdpayloads continue to work. Existing interrupted-call handling and orphan-result filtering remain intact.
Preserve the current effective-history/compaction projection and the distinction between transcript replay and model context. This finding does not require provider-wide ID changes, a persistence migration, or adding historical tool messages to the model prompt.
[P2] Reject resume when a populated session's event log is missing
internal/acp/agent.go:263–275, before publication at line 288.
Failure path and evidence. The guard rejects resume only when loadHistory returns an error. However, Store.ReadEvents (internal/sessions/store.go:815–824) converts os.ErrNotExist into an empty event slice with a nil error. ReadRehydratedEvents preserves that successful-empty result. A missing log therefore bypasses the restoration guard.
I reproduced this by creating a persisted session, appending one message, verifying that its metadata recorded EventCount = 1, and removing only events.jsonl. A fresh agent then accepted session/resume and registered the session with empty history. The observed result was resume succeeded with missing populated log; promptable=true history=[]. The caller receives a usable session identity despite the recorded context having disappeared from restoration.
This is a failure-recovery case. The PR does not cause the file to disappear, and the reader's permissive handling predates it. The defect is reporting successful continuation under the new resume capability when the recorded context could not be restored. Resume is expected to restore context before reporting readiness. ACP resume contract
Root cause and attribution. The shared reader intentionally collapses “no event file” into “empty history,” while the new resume path needs to distinguish a legitimate empty session from unavailable previously populated history. Checking only historyErr cannot enforce that stronger requirement after the distinction has been discarded. This leaves the earlier fail-closed resume request incomplete. Merge-base and captured target have the permissive reader but no session/resume entry point; the finding is about the new activation boundary.
Requested correction. Preserve or obtain enough restoration status to identify a missing log for a session whose metadata records prior events, then reject fresh resume before registering it. A structured read status or a resume-specific restoration check can satisfy this; the implementation choice is yours. Ensure the check describes the history actually being restored. Returning an error after registration would still leave the failed session promptable and would not complete the fix.
Acceptance criteria. Add a fresh-agent regression that creates populated history, removes its log while retaining metadata, and invokes the actual resume handler:
- Resume returns a restoration error.
- The failed operation does not register the session, and a subsequent prompt cannot use it as a successfully resumed session.
- A valid never-used session with an empty log still resumes. Preserve the existing behavior for intentionally emptied/rewound sessions, torn-tail recovery, and raw-event fallback when compaction metadata is invalid.
The requested outcome is limited to detecting unavailable populated history before successful resume. It does not require repairing deleted files, enforcing exact metadata/event-count equality, redesigning storage transactions, or changing the deliberately best-effort session/load policy.
Guidance for completing this revision
These two findings share a specific integration gap: the ACP adapter assumes stronger guarantees than the existing data source provides. A raw provider ID does not identify an invocation across the whole saved session, and a nil reader error does not establish that previously recorded context was restored. The correction belongs where those values acquire their ACP meaning: history-to-update projection and restored-history-to-session publication.
Please use those two invariants to guide the fixes rather than adding special cases only for the literal Gemini ID or the single test fixture. For replay, follow one invocation from its saved start through its saved result to the emitted client identity. For resume, follow the saved metadata and log through restoration, registration, and the next prompt. Tests at those boundaries will verify the externally visible outcome as well as the helper behavior. The existing suite passes despite these failures, so the missing coverage is the composed path with representative persisted data and a fresh activation failure.
This explains the two remaining findings; it is not evidence that every earlier change or the overall architecture needs reworking. Please retain the accepted behavior already established in this PR: disk history refresh on explicit reactivation, successful-turn persistence semantics, replay-free resume, and clients waiting for the load response before prompting. Dirty-memory merging, broader pipelined-client serialization, and storage or provider redesigns are not additional requests in this review.
For the next revision, please identify how each invariant is enforced and which regression demonstrates it, then run the focused ACP/session-store checks after incorporating current main. The acceptance criteria above are the completion targets for these findings. The separate policy question below should receive an explicit maintainer answer rather than an inferred behavior change bundled into either fix.
Needs maintainer decision
The previous question about agent-owned child/side/spec sessions remains open: session/load permits full activation, although the test calls it “render-only access.” Please clarify that policy separately. Neither finding above depends on changing it, and this review does not prescribe a new subordinate-session authorization policy.
Validation
ACP and session-store race tests, ACP vet, formatting, and diff checks passed on the reviewed head. Both reported failure paths were reproduced against that head. The corresponding merge-base and captured-target probes confirm that those revisions have neither the new resume method nor historical tool replay; they are absent-capability comparisons, not successful tests of the new functionality. Full repository build/smoke/security results come from the captured current-head CI checks. The referenced ZeroApp repository is unavailable to me, so I could not independently verify the claimed desktop conformance run.

The previous findings about repeated tool replay IDs and missing populated event logs are fixed on 2c85197fd133. One substantive persistence regression remains, along with a small test-correctness issue. The P2 below is the code reason to hold merge; the P3 is worth correcting but would not independently justify another blocking review round.
I am including the failure paths, root causes, and completion criteria together so the next revision can address the remaining contracts without reopening settled behavior.
Merge readiness
Rebase onto current main before merge. At the reviewed state, the merge base was 1b5db1765672, three commits behind captured main at f30f550e6037: ACP browser metadata/safe titles (#1000), specialist model restoration (#1009), and sandbox worktree protection (#805). Preserve those upstream changes and validate the combined ACP behavior, particularly the shared tool translators used by replay.
GitHub reported MERGEABLE, all reported checks passing, and a blocked review state with changes requested. This rebase requirement is separate from the findings in the PR diff; the absence of merge conflicts does not establish that the combined behavior has been tested.
What is already settled
These accepted behaviors should remain intact while addressing this review:
- Requests supply their own absolute workspace, persisted workspace identity is checked, and unusable workspace entries are omitted from listing.
- Listing and resume enforce standalone-session eligibility. The separate policy question about loading internal runs remains below.
- Load and resume restore effective compaction-aware history, with the accepted raw-history fallback when compaction metadata alone cannot be applied.
- Fresh resume fails before publication when populated history is unavailable; valid empty and intentionally emptied histories continue to work.
- Load replays tool activity with stable per-invocation identities and preserved changed-file locations. Resume remains free of transcript replay and transcript-shaped warnings.
- Hard agent errors do not commit the failed turn. Accepted cancellation outcomes retain their existing behavior. Explicit reactivation refreshes history from disk.
The latest fixes to replay identity and event-log presence satisfy the previous failure cases. The persistence finding below concerns the scope of the store lock when committing a completed turn; it does not require revisiting those fixes.
Findings
[P2] Preserve a completed turn’s contiguous store append
internal/acp/agent.go:513–515, with singleton AppendEvents calls at line 789.
Failure path and observed impact
Two ACP instances can load the same persisted session ID. Each instance has its own Agent, session map, and acpSession.turnMu. That mutex serializes prompts within one instance; the shared store supplies exclusion between instances.
The current code buffers a complete turn, checks stopReasonFor, and then calls persist separately for every buffered event. Each call reaches Store.AppendEvents with a one-element slice. The store acquires and releases its session lock for that call, allowing another writer to enter before the next event from the same turn.
A concrete schedule is:
- A finishes its agent run and writes
user A. - A is descheduled after releasing the store lock.
- B writes
user Bandanswer Bto the same session. - A continues and writes
answer A.
All four writes can succeed. The durable log is valid JSON with valid event sequences, but its conversation order is now:
user A → user B → answer B → answer A
A fresh load reconstructs these records:
{user: A, assistant: empty}
{user: B, assistant: answer B}
{user: empty, assistant: answer A}
The reader pairs prose by event order because the stored messages do not carry a separate turn identity. The interleaving therefore affects both the restored prompt history and the transcript projected to the client. This is a logical ordering failure; a race-detector pass cannot establish correct turn grouping when every individual write is properly locked.
Evidence and attribution
I reproduced this using two actual Agent instances sharing a store, normal load handlers, runTurn, real store appends, and a fresh load. A scheduling hook immediately after the append lock is released lets B run at the precise point where A can be descheduled. It changes scheduling, without injecting a write error or manufacturing stored events.
The same probe produces:
| Revision | Durable order | Fresh-load result |
|---|---|---|
Merge base 1b5db1765672 |
A, answer A, B, answer B | Two correctly paired turns |
PR head 2c85197fd133 |
A, B, answer B, answer A | Three incorrectly paired records |
Captured target f30f550e6037 |
A, answer A, B, answer B | Two correctly paired turns |
The executable reproduction uses two instances in one process, not two separate OS processes or the desktop client. That is sufficient to expose the ownership mismatch: their ACP mutexes are distinct, and the actual shared-store lock is exercised.
Before this PR, persistTurn passed the user and assistant events together to one AppendEvents call. The PR replaces that batch with separately locked calls. The causal change is therefore specific and attributable to this PR, rather than an existing limitation in concurrent model execution.
Root cause
The turn has been made complete at the application level, but its persistence is still divided into independent event operations. Two different guarantees are needed:
- The outcome gate determines whether and when the turn may be committed.
- The store batch determines which records remain together relative to other writers.
Restoring the first guarantee did not restore the second. turnMu cannot bridge that gap because it belongs to one in-memory session object, whereas the durable log is shared.
The same split can also affect tool correlation if interleaved writers reuse a raw tool ID: replay tracks the active occurrence for that ID in event order. This is a companion consequence of the same write-grouping defect, not another finding or a request to redesign replay IDs. The message-order failure above is the runtime-confirmed reproduction.
Requested correction
Keep the already-buffered events of a completed turn contiguous relative to other store writers, in their original order. Passing the complete buffer through the existing Store.AppendEvents batch API is the direct available approach. An equivalent implementation is acceptable if it enforces the same shared-store boundary.
Keep the outcome check before that commit. Retain the accepted cancellation and persistence-error behavior, including warnings and the rule against independently appending a dependent suffix after a failed prerequisite. Tests or injection seams can change to reflect a batch operation; preserving the exact number of singleton test callbacks is not a product requirement.
Here, contiguous means protected from other writers by the existing store lock. It does not mean adding an all-or-nothing disk transaction or guaranteeing rollback after every possible write/fsync failure. This correction restores the existing batching guarantee using the completed buffer already present in the code.
Acceptance criteria
- Add a deterministic regression with two agents writing to one persisted session. Use explicit synchronization to exercise the append boundary; avoid relying on a sleep or hoping a scheduler happens to interleave them.
- Exercise the production persistence path. A test that supplies its own correctly batched
PersistEventimplementation could hide the defect in the default path. - Assert that each turn’s message/tool records form a contiguous group in the durable log. Include a tool start/result pair so the test protects the event buffer, rather than special-casing only the two prose messages.
- Load that history through a fresh agent and verify the corresponding user/assistant pairing and tool start/result correlation. The restored prompt seed must retain the correct prose pairs; historical tool messages should remain excluded from the model prompt as currently intended.
- Demonstrate that the regression fails with the current singleton-write behavior and passes with the correction. Rerun the existing hard-error, cancellation, persistence-failure, replay-ID, and fresh-load tests to protect the accepted boundaries.
No global execution lease, provider-ID migration, dirty-memory merge, or broader session-storage redesign is needed to satisfy this finding.
[P3] Normalize the expected workspace in the listing test
internal/acp/agent_test.go:231.
Failure path and evidence
TestACPListsOnlyResumableSessionMetadata installs a resolver that returns filepath.Clean(cwd). Its assertion then compares the returned Cwd with the raw workspaceA string from t.TempDir().
With an existing absolute TMPDIR containing a .. component, t.TempDir() retains that spelling while the resolver cleans it. The strings differ even though they identify the same directory and the production result is correct. The test fails at the metadata-summary assertion.
I reproduced the failure with that temporary-directory spelling. The test passes under a canonical spelling, and changing only the expected value to filepath.Clean(workspaceA) makes the original environment pass too. The assertion is new in this PR and absent from both the merge base and captured target.
Root cause and correction
The test compares values from two different representations: the fixture’s input spelling and the resolver’s normalized output. Its expected value should describe the output contract.
Derive the expected workspace through the test resolver or equivalent normalization. Retain the assertions for the title, model, timestamps, eligible sessions, and returned workspace. There is no production normalization bug here, so changing listing to return the unnormalized input or dropping the workspace assertion would address the wrong layer.
Verify the corrected test with both canonical and noncanonical temporary-directory spellings. Keep all fixtures within the test-owned directory. This is a small test-correctness fix; it should not be treated as evidence that workspace identity validation needs redesigning.
Guidance for finishing this PR without another series of isolated fixes
The review history spans several related contracts: activation eligibility, durable event production, restoration, transcript projection, identity, and error handling. A correction can satisfy the latest example while leaving an assumption at the next boundary untested. That pattern is visible here, but it does not mean all previous fixes were wrong or that every remaining issue has one architectural cause.
For the P2, the missing composition is precise: completed turn → shared-store append → another writer → fresh restoration. Existing tests demonstrate ordering within one producer, repeated IDs in sequential history, and several storage-failure cases. Those are useful tests, but none establishes that a second producer cannot insert records between the first producer’s writes. The current buffer and existing store batch already provide the pieces needed to close that gap.
For the P3, the missing comparison is much smaller: fixture input spelling → resolver normalization → expected output. It belongs in the test expectation. Combining it with a production path rewrite would create unnecessary drift.
Earlier feedback also evolved across revisions, including the move from incremental event persistence back to buffering until the turn outcome is known. To make the present request unambiguous: buffering until an accepted outcome is correct; committing that completed buffer as separately locked singleton events is the remaining problem. The correction should keep the first behavior and restore shared-store grouping. There is no request to return to early durable writes during an unfinished agent run.
Review feedback must stay stable as well. A new example of the same invariant should be covered by the same correction and regression, rather than becoming a new product requirement. Please use the acceptance criteria above as the completion targets for these findings. In the follow-up, identify the shared-lock boundary that enforces contiguity, the regression that fails without it, and the unchanged outcome/failure behaviors that were exercised after the fix.
A focused final verification should cover the following established behaviors together:
| Boundary | Expected result |
|---|---|
| Successful turn with another writer | Each completed buffer remains contiguous; fresh restoration pairs it correctly |
| Hard agent failure | No failed-turn commit to memory or durable history |
| Accepted cancellation | Existing cancelled-turn persistence behavior retained |
| Persistence failure | Existing warning/error policy retained; no independent dependent-suffix append after failure |
| Load and resume | Effective history restored; only load replays transcript updates |
| Repeated IDs and missing history | Latest occurrence-identity and populated-log-presence fixes retained |
| Workspace listing test | Expected and actual paths compared in the resolver’s normalized representation |
This is a regression check around the changed boundaries, not a request for a new framework or a broad cleanup. Reuse existing tests where they already establish the behavior; add coverage for the missing writer-interleaving case and correct the path expectation.
Keep these scope limits explicit: no dirty-memory merging on explicit reactivation; no broader serialization for clients that prompt before the load response; no pagination or additional-directory feature work; no provider-wide ID changes; and no expansion of historical tool events into model context. The separate internal-session policy question below should receive a maintainer answer rather than an inferred implementation change bundled into either fix.
Needs maintainer decision
The existing question about child/side/spec sessions remains unresolved: session/load fully activates them, although the test describes “render-only access.” This behavior predates the PR and is not counted as a new code defect.
Please confirm whether that existing full activation is intended or whether a separately agreed render-only contract is desired. Until that decision is made, these findings do not request changing subordinate-session authorization. At minimum, the eventual documented policy and test description should agree so subsequent reviews do not repeatedly infer different requirements from that phrase.
Validation and limits
On the reviewed head, ACP and session-store race tests, focused vet, formatting, and diff hygiene passed with canonical temporary paths. Additional checks passed for legacy event IDs, repeated tool IDs with distinct results, torn-tail recovery, and intentionally emptied history. Both reported failure paths were reproduced. The controlled turn-order comparison passed on the merge base and captured target and failed on the PR head; the test-only normalization control passed under the failing temporary-directory spelling.
Captured current-head CI reports passing smoke checks on Linux, macOS, and Windows, plus security/code-health checks. Full repository build/smoke were not rerun locally. The linked ZeroApp repository is inaccessible to this account, so its claimed desktop conformance run remains unverified. The branch-protection endpoint returned 404, preventing independent inspection of the exact required-check configuration.

Merge readiness
Please rebase onto current main before merge, as required by the repository’s fresh-base policy. The merge base is 7f5e5af7bbdb; current main is 1e4db7c6643c, two commits ahead with #1017 (tool-schema behavior across hosts) and #1025 (configured forward-proxy handling). Preserve those changes and rerun the focused ACP/session race tests on the updated head.
GitHub reports MERGEABLE, with all reported checks passing. The review state remains CHANGES_REQUESTED. There is no observed conflict or release-version drift.

Please settle the existing policy for loading child, side, and spec sessions. session/load fully activates them, including allowing subsequent prompts, while TestACPResumeAppliesStandaloneSessionKindPolicy describes the access as “render-only.” This activation behavior predates this PR and is not a new code finding.
If full activation is intended, align that test wording with the policy. If render-only access is desired, agree on that contract separately before changing subordinate-session authorization. The new session/resume and listing gates correctly enforce standalone-session eligibility.

@Vasanthdev2004's three findings, all reproduced before changing anything. TWO SPELLINGS OF ONE DIRECTORY WERE TWO WORKSPACES. Both comparisons were string equality on ResolveWorkspaceRoot output, and that resolver is abs plus filepath.Clean plus a stat — it does not fold case and does not resolve junctions. A session persisted from the TUI was unresumable from an editor holding a different spelling of the same project folder, and session/list filtered by the other spelling returned nothing, which makes it an invisible failure rather than a reported one. It lands on exactly the case this feature exists for, and on the two processes most likely to disagree about spelling. os.SameFile asks the filesystem which directories these are, which is the question. filepath.EvalSymlinks is NOT the fix on Windows — it normalises a drive letter and returns a junction path unchanged, so the alias survives it, and junctions need no privilege. String equality stays as the fast path, and a stat failure falls back to it rather than widening the match: this gate refuses access to another workspace's files and configuration, so an unanswerable comparison denies. THE TEST COULD NOT SEE ANY OF IT. testDeps resolves with the identity function, so the guard degenerated to "are these two strings different" fed two unrelated temp directories — it could only ever answer yes. The rejection direction was pinned and the acceptance direction was asserted nowhere. The new test uses a resolver reproducing the production normalisation and drives the ACCEPTANCE direction through an alias, skipping if the filesystem folds the alias away so it never passes vacuously. Reverting to string equality fails it three ways: load, resume, and a list that returns zero. THE WIRE KEYS ARE AN EXTERNAL CONTRACT. Nothing pinned sessionId, cwd, title, updatedAt, _meta, modelId, createdAt, sessions, nextCursor, cursor, loadSession, promptCapabilities, sessionCapabilities, list or resume, so renaming a Go field would break every client and leave the suite green. Renaming modelId to model_id now fails.

…unusable sessions THE TEST COULD NOT RUN ON THE PLATFORM THE BUG IS FROM. @Vasanthdev2004's point, and he is right that it is not a nit. The alias test built its second name with os.Symlink, which needs a privilege an ordinary Windows session does not hold, so it SKIPPED there — and Windows is where junctions exist and where this defect came from. The identity guard was verified by CI on the two platforms that never had the problem. It now builds the alias with mklink /J on Windows, which needs no privilege and is how he found the defect in the first place, and keeps the symlink arm elsewhere. This is the second time in this series a correct fix shipped with a test that could not exercise it: the same helper shape was added to internal/memory for the same reason a day earlier. A SESSION WITH NO PERSISTED WORKSPACE IS NOT RESUMABLE, SO IT IS NOT LISTED. CodeRabbit's finding. activatePersistedSession refuses an empty Cwd, but the listing advertised it anyway — a menu entry that only fails when taken. The test asserts both halves, because the listing is only correct relative to what resume will accept: the omitted session is checked to really fail on resume, and a usable session is checked to survive the filter. Mutation-checked: removing the filter advertises the unusable session again.

…supplied @anandh8x's P1, both halves reproduced before changing anything. The loop resolved item.Cwd only when a cwd filter was present, and skipped only a blank one. Two shapes stayed on the menu that session/resume then refuses: - a session whose persisted workspace has since been deleted, advertised as resumable - a legacy entry holding a relative path, reported as cwd "." although ACP requires SessionInfo.cwd to be absolute Every entry is now resolved unconditionally, anything that cannot resolve is omitted, and the RESOLVED root is what SessionInfo carries — absolute as the contract requires, and the same value the client hands back on resume. The optional identity filter then applies to the resolved roots, which is also where it belonged. Listing is a menu: activatePersistedSession resolves and refuses what it cannot reach, so anything this loop cannot resolve is something a client would be offered and then denied. Mutation-checked: restoring the resolve-only-when-filtered shape re-advertises the deleted workspace and re-emits the relative cwd.

CodeRabbit's catch, and the test was genuinely weaker than it looked. It checked that the deleted workspace was gone, the live one kept, and every listed cwd absolute — all of which a "fix" that simply DISCARDED any non-absolute entry would satisfy, while losing a resumable session. Presence is now asserted separately from spelling: the relative entry must still be listed, and listed with an absolute path. Mutation-checked: skipping non-absolute entries instead of resolving them now fails with "a session with a resolvable relative workspace was dropped rather than normalised". The first attempt at that mutation did not compile, so it proved nothing until it was rewritten — worth saying, because a mutation that fails to build looks exactly like a test that passes. Origin-Session: local-13d543 | Claude Code | 5 prompts Origin-Snapshot: 6b5eb8ba4e5b Origin-Session: local-c962d7 | Claude Code | 3 prompts Origin-Snapshot: d2b8f44a9abc
Reported by @anandh8x. Resolving a stored relative cwd does not recover the session's workspace, it invents one: ResolveWorkspaceRoot joins it against whatever directory the ACP server happens to be running in, and that invented absolute path was then advertised as the session's workspace and accepted as its home on resume. Reproduced on f2c6fc9, a session persisted with cwd ".": LISTED legacy-rel as cwd="/Users/kratos/dev/f914/internal/acp" resume with an UNRELATED workspace -> err=... cwd does not match its persisted workspace resume with NO cwd (falls back to ".") -> err=<nil> The mismatch check does its job when the client names a workspace, so the only opening was the fallback path, where the rebased value was compared against itself and always agreed. A conversation created for one project could be resumed against another project's files, configuration and tools. Both doors now take the same guard: handleSessionList omits an entry whose persisted cwd is not absolute, and activatePersistedSession refuses one rather than resolving it. The original base is not knowable from the metadata, so guessing at it is not an option a fix can take. This reverses an earlier assertion in TestSessionListResolvesEveryWorkspace, which expected the relative entry to be normalised and retained. That was requested in review on the grounds that dropping it loses a resumable session. It does, but the entry was never resumable into its own workspace, only into this process's. The test now asserts it is dropped, and a new TestResumeRefusesARelativePersistedWorkspace covers the fallback path that the listing filter alone leaves open. Both guards mutation-checked: removing either one fails its test. Pre-existing on this branch and on its merge-base, unrelated to this change: TestRunDoctorFormatsRedactedProviderDiagnostics and TestRunDoctorConnectivityProbesProvider both exit 3 in this environment.

Raised by CodeRabbit: the test is named for resume and called session/load. session/load and session/resume are separate entry points that today share activatePersistedSession, so an assertion through either one passes while the guard holds — but the name promised a surface it was not touching. Both are now named explicitly, which keeps that true: if resume is ever given its own path, this fails rather than quietly covering half of what it claims to. With the guard removed, both methods accept a relative persisted workspace on the no-cwd fallback. The named-workspace case was already refused by the existing mismatch check; the fallback was the only door open, and it is open on both. Not taken in this PR, from the same review: threading a rooted directory handle through ResolveWorkspaceRoot and workspace construction so a root rename or link swap cannot redirect later file operations. That is a real question and a pre-existing one — this change adds a refusal and no path handling — but it is a capability refactor across workspace and tool access with its own race test, not something to fold into a session-list fix. Worth its own issue.

…t the record Reported by @jatmn. ResumeSessionParams is a type alias for LoadSessionParams, so JSON decoding turns an OMITTED resume cwd into an empty string. That blank reached the shared activation path, whose blank-cwd fallback substitutes meta.Cwd — so {"sessionId":"known"} activated a persisted session, even though ACP v1 requires session/resume to carry an absolute working directory. This is a different hole from the persisted-cwd one fixed earlier on this branch. That guard asks whether the STORED workspace is identifiable; this asks whether the CALLER named one at all. The earlier fix does not cover it, because a stored absolute cwd passes that check and the blank request then silently inherits it. requestedWorkspace validates the request's own cwd before anything reaches the fallback: absent, empty and whitespace-only are all invalid params, and so is a relative path. Applied to both activating methods rather than to resume alone — load's omitted-cwd fallback was inheriting the same way, and leaving one door open is how this class survived the last fix. Mutation-checked at the wire, which is where the defect lives: making the blank case return no error compiles and fails the regression on four separate requests — session/load and session/resume, each with cwd omitted and with cwd blank. A Go-level test would not have caught it, since the defect is in decoding an absent field. Two notes from a verification pass, neither a defect: Error precedence changed: a blank cwd with an UNKNOWN session id now reports the cwd problem instead of "session not found". Kept deliberately and pinned — it stops the server confirming whether a session exists to a request that named no workspace. AdditionalDirectories is declared on two params structs and consumed nowhere in the repo. Not a hole today, but it is the same shape — client-supplied paths with no absoluteness rule — so the field now carries a note saying it must go through requestedWorkspace when wired up. Rebased onto ad34dc8. go test -race ./internal/acp/ -count=5: clean. Pre-existing here and on main: TestRunDoctorFormatsRedactedProviderDiagnostics and TestRunDoctorConnectivityProbesProvider exit 3 in this environment.

…hen it cannot Three defects in ACP session restoration, all reported by @jatmn. loadHistory read the raw event log and kept only EventMessage. A compacted session stores its original prefix alongside an EventCompaction naming the events it replaced and carrying their summary, so restoring from the raw log replayed superseded turns AND dropped the summary that replaced them. It now reads the same rehydrated view the TUI and exec paths use, and explicitly projects the compaction summary -- switching readers alone would still drop it, because rehydration substitutes the compaction event in place of what it replaced. historyErr only suppressed replay and raised a warning: the session was registered and reported ready regardless, so an unreadable events file left the caller holding a live, promptable session ID whose next prompt ran as a fresh conversation under the old identity. Resume now fails. Load keeps the best-effort policy deliberately rather than by inheriting the shared helper. Tool calls and their results were dropped from session/load, so a restored transcript showed prose asserting edits with no record that any tool ran. They now replay through the same toolCallStart/toolCallResult mapping a live turn uses, keyed on the stored toolCallId so results pair with their calls. They do not enter turnRecord, so load and resume still consume the same effective history. Resume stays replay-free. Also asserts that an unset sessionCapabilities is omitted rather than serialized as null, raised by CodeRabbit.
A completed turn was buffered until its outcome was known and then persisted one event per call. Each call took and released the store's session lock, so a second ACP instance holding the same session -- its turnMu is its own, only the store is shared -- could append its whole turn between two of them: user A, user B, answer B, answer A. Every write was individually locked and the log was valid, but a fresh load pairs prose by order and reconstructed three wrong turns from two right ones. Before this branch the user and assistant events went to AppendEvents together; buffering until the outcome is known was the right change and splitting the commit into singleton writes was not. The whole buffer now goes through one Store.AppendEvents call, which writes the batch under one lock and one file write. That is the contiguity being restored: not a disk transaction, and not a promise about a crash mid-fsync. The outcome gate still runs first; a hard failure still commits nothing; cancellation still commits through the same boundary. A persistence failure is now the failure of the whole batch, so there is no dependent suffix to protect and the rewritten regression asserts that nothing of the turn is durable, the warning is raised, and a fresh load replays none of it. The two-instance regression holds both writers at the commit boundary until each has arrived and then delegates to the real batch API under the real lock; it observes what production hands it rather than batching anything itself, so reverting to singleton writes fails it before any interleaving has to be provoked. The restored prompt keeps both prose pairs and no historical tool output. Also normalizes the expected workspace in the listing test through filepath.Clean, matching the resolver's output contract, so a TMPDIR spelled with a ".." component no longer fails a correct result. Rebased onto main to pick up the ACP browser metadata, specialist model restoration and worktree pointer protection changes. Both reported by @jatmn.

Needs maintainer decision
Please settle the existing policy for loading child, side, and spec sessions. session/load fully activates them, including allowing subsequent prompts, while session/resume and session/list enforce standalone-session eligibility via IsResumableKind. TestACPResumeAppliesStandaloneSessionKindPolicy documents load success for child sessions with resume rejection.
If full activation via session/load is intended, align the test wording with that policy. If render-only access is desired, agree on that contract separately before changing subordinate-session authorization. The new session/resume and listing gates correctly enforce standalone-session eligibility.

Re-reviewed at fb38d768. All three from my last round are closed, and I drove the ones worth driving rather than reading them.
The resume guard. activatePersistedSession refuses a non-resumable kind before anything is looked up or published, and TestACPResumeAppliesStandaloneSessionKindPolicy drives it over the wire across all four subordinate kinds plus the two that should pass. I had asked for one check closing both halves; you gated resume and left load, which matches what I said about scope at a4bb90a7, so I am not reopening that. One note on it below.
Load's fallback. loadHistory falls back to ReadEventsWithPresence when rehydration fails, so the three readers agree on the failure path as well as the happy one. The "all three now agree" comment is true now rather than nearly true.
The orphan tool_result. Closed, and closed better than I asked for. activeToolCalls means a result whose tool_call is not in the log is dropped rather than sent as an update against an id the client never saw, and re-keying to a synthetic replay id falls out of the same change. persistedMessageIdentity is per-event (event.ID, else sessionID:sequence), so the synthetic ids do not collide.
The batch commit. I checked the claim instead of taking it. Store.AppendEvents takes lockSession once and calls appendPreparedEventsLocked once, so "one lock, one file write" is accurate, and TestStoreAppendEventsSerializesConcurrentBatches pins it at the store rather than here. Everything in the turn shares the one buffer, so tool events keep their position relative to the user message instead of landing ahead of it.
queue is called from OnToolCall and OnToolResult, which is the part I wanted to be sure about given the parallel read-ahead in the agent loop. Both fire from the sequential consumption in internal/agent/loop.go (673 and 689), not from inside executeParallelReadBatch, which only wraps the permission callbacks. -race on the package is clean. No single-event persistence is left anywhere in production code in this package.
TestSessionWireKeysAreStable also closes the wire-contract gap from my first round.
One thing, and it is the test rather than the code
The kind-policy test ends with this:
if err := h.client.Call(ctx, MethodSessionLoad, LoadSessionParams{...}); err != nil {
t.Fatalf("session/load should retain render-only access: %v", err)
}Render-only is not what load grants. Issuing the prompt after the load, which is the order a client would actually use, on this branch:
kind=child resume=refused load=ok prompt=nil <-- promptable after load
kind=side resume=refused load=ok prompt=nil <-- promptable after load
kind=spec-draft resume=refused load=ok prompt=nil <-- promptable after load
kind=spec-impl resume=refused load=ok prompt=nil <-- promptable after load
The rejected subordinate session became promptable assertion just above it passes because the refused resume never registered the session, not because the kind is refused at prompt time. The prompt is issued before the load that would have registered it, so swapping those two calls fails the test. As it stands a client that wants to prompt a child session calls session/load instead of session/resume.
I ran the same probe against main and it is identical, all four promptable after load. So this PR introduces nothing here and I am not asking you to fix main's behaviour in this PR. What I am asking is that the test stop asserting a property that does not hold, because a comment saying "render-only" is exactly what stops the next person from looking.
Either way out is fine by me: drop the phrase and say plainly that load still grants prompt access, or register non-resumable kinds without prompt access so the phrase becomes true. The second is what I originally wanted and it is a fair call to keep it out of this PR.
Approving. This is not worth another round on a branch that has had this many, and everything I actually blocked on is closed. I will file the load half as its own issue so it does not get lost, and you can take the test wording in whatever form suits you.
All nine checks green at fb38d768.
