No tracked issue — internal reconciliation pass. Stacked on #306; review that one first.

Problem

Six independent defects and small features, none of which were reachable from the CLI or server as shipped:

  • Print mode (pythinker -p) ignored PYTHINKER_DISABLE_TELEMETRY and never attached a sink to the client the process-wide crash handlers report through, so print-mode crashes went unreported.
  • pythinker upgrade could only be answered interactively, so scripts and non-interactive shells were shown the manual install command instead.
  • Every session open was counted twice in telemetry: the harness and the engine each emitted session_started, and the provider/reload commands mirrored the engine's model_switch.
  • The staleGuard feature had no consumers but still owned a replayable state key and two wire records.
  • Goal time budgets were capped at 24 hours and kept accruing while the session was closed, so a long goal could return already over budget without doing any work.
  • Image and video filenames were dropped: the gateway re-derived a name from the mime type or the stored file.

What changed

  • Print telemetry — the config value routes through shouldEnableTelemetry (which honours the env var), and the v1 pipeline is initialized beside the v2 cloud appender so crash handlers have a sink. The session id and resolved model are reconciled once known.
  • upgrade -y/--yes — skips the confirmation and installs directly. The existing native-install path keeps its own no-confirmation behaviour.
  • Telemetry dedup — harness-assembled clients drop the engine's session_started; direct SDKRpcClientV2 consumers keep it, since it is their only producer. activateModelAfterLogin now reports whether the engine already tracked the switch, so the command layer stays the producer for exactly the paths it does not.
  • staleGuard removed — replay still works for wires that carry the retired records: the dispatcher skips them without a warning, and the visualizer declares both record shapes locally.
  • Goal budgets — no upper duration limit, time accrues only while the agent is live, and an active goal pauses when its agent closes so resume continues with the remainder.
  • Media names — image and video parts carry an optional name through the wire contract; an unsupported-format image keeps that name in the notice and in the file written to the attachments directory.

Two things worth a reviewer's attention:

  • v1↔v2 goal parity now pins one deliberate difference. v2 reports Paused after agent closed; v1 reports Paused after agent resume because agent-core v1 has no agent close hook to attach the behaviour to. Every other field still compares in full, and each engine's own reason is asserted explicitly.
  • The dist-web bundle is restaged in the media-names commit because packages/protocol and packages/transcript are web build inputs. Only .web-bundle-manifest.json changed.

…pty channel argument

The release workflow passes the channel manifest positionally, so an
unresolved channel output reaches the script as an empty string rather
than a missing argument. The nullish coalescing default did not catch
it, and joining an empty name onto the distribution directory made the
notarization step read the directory itself and fail with EISDIR.
…riable

The variable baked a single timestamp into the rendered system prompt,
which then went stale for the rest of the session. The current date
already reaches the agent through its own context reminder, so the
placeholder now renders verbatim like any other unknown variable.
…ut of experimental

Remote Control no longer needs an opt-in: the rc subcommand, the
--remote-control option and the slash command are always available.
The subagent model pool is likewise unconditional, so [secondary_model]
takes effect with no environment variable.

The two storage kill switches move from experimental flags to a
[database] config section with base and search keys, both defaulting to
true. Their environment variables are renamed accordingly, and the
search backend is now chosen once the configuration is ready rather than
at construction time.
Extract the Remote Control tunnel client into `packages/remote-control` so
both the CLI and the server can drive it, and put an xstate machine in front
of it that owns the off/starting/on/stopping lifecycle.

The server exposes the machine at `GET` and `POST /api/v1/remote-control`,
refusing to start when the bind is not loopback or authentication is
bypassed, and closes the tunnel as part of its shutdown phases.

The relay origin and relay key stay resolved per start, so the toggle reads
the operator's current environment rather than a value captured at boot.
Release the single-instance lock before the handle reports closed, so a
toggle that reports off cannot be followed by an enable that trips over its
own lock file.

Carry the server token in the banner's Local UI link, and gzip textual
responses over the tunnel: text, JSON, JavaScript, XML and SVG bodies of at
least 1 KiB, skipping 206 responses, already-encoded bodies and clients that
exclude gzip. Compressed responses drop their ETag and always advertise
Vary: Accept-Encoding.
…e the bundle

The Local UI link now carries the server token on purpose, so the banner test
bans the token from the relay and session URLs rather than from the whole
banner. Cover the runtime toggle's token provider end to end: rotate the
server token while the tunnel is up and forward an authenticated request
through it.

Rebuild the committed web bundle, whose fingerprint moved with the lockfile,
and document the new endpoint and error code.
Classify a storage failure as rebuildable or transient, and give minidb a
lock-aware wipe that renames the store aside before deleting it, so a wipe
never races a live reader.

The query store now carries an epoch: a checkpoint written against a store
that was rebuilt underneath it is refused rather than silently recorded
against fresh data. The gateway's search index uses the same classification
to rebuild after corruption, and to escalate once transient write failures
stop being transient.
…down

A background task can settle after its agent is gone. Gate the task-started,
task-terminated and notification paths on the agent still being active, and
stop tasks after the loop reaches quiescence rather than before it drains, so
a late settle cannot reach the wire.
…int mode

Print mode read only the config `telemetry` key, so PYTHINKER_DISABLE_TELEMETRY
had no effect there, and it never attached a sink to the v1 client that the
process-wide crash handlers report through, so print-mode crashes went nowhere.

Route the config value through shouldEnableTelemetry, initialize the v1
pipeline alongside the v2 cloud appender, and reconcile the sink's session id
and model once the session resolves.
`pythinker upgrade -y` installs the available update without the interactive
choice, so the command works in scripts and non-interactive shells that could
previously only be shown the manual install command.
The harness emits session_started for every session it opens with the richer
client-attribution schema, and the engine emitted its own thinner copy for the
same open, so each session counted twice. Provider and reload commands mirrored
the engine's model_switch the same way.

Drop the engine row from harness-assembled clients only, and let
activateModelAfterLogin report whether the engine already tracked the switch so
the command layer stays the producer for exactly the paths it does not.
Nothing consumed the staleGuard state or its two wire records. Drop the feature
and its replayable key, and keep replay working for wires that still carry the
retired records: the dispatcher skips them without a warning, and the
visualizer declares their record shapes locally now that the engine types are
gone.
A goal time budget was capped at 24 hours and kept accruing wall-clock while
the session was closed, so a long-running goal could come back already over
budget without doing any work.

Drop the upper bound (the budget only has to be at least a second and convert
to a finite duration), accrue time only while the agent is live, and pause an
active goal when its agent closes so the elapsed time is saved and resume
continues with the remainder.
Image and video parts carry an optional name through the wire contract, so the
gateway keeps the filename the client sent instead of re-deriving one from the
mime type or the stored file. Session-media refs are resolved to their stored
name up front, and an unsupported-format image keeps that name in both the
notice text and the file written to the attachments directory.
…ifference

The goal close-pause changes the replayable state manifest and makes v2 report
"Paused after agent closed" where v1 still reports "Paused after agent
resume". agent-core v1 has no agent close hook, so the behaviour cannot be
mirrored there; the parity test now compares every other field and asserts each
engine's own reason.

This pull request updates goal timing, media filename preservation, stale-guard removal, telemetry initialization, upgrade confirmation, and TUI session handling. It also updates related tests, generated manifests, documentation, and release changesets.

Changes

Runtime and interface updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Goal lifecycle and budget timing
packages/agent-core-v2/src/features/goal/..., packages/agent-core-v2/test/features/goal/..., packages/agent-core-v2/test/wire/..., docs/guides/goals.md
Goal time pauses when the agent closes. Restoration uses recorded elapsed time without charging closed-session time. Time budgets no longer have a 24-hour maximum.
Media names and prompt resolution
packages/protocol/..., packages/agent-gateway/..., packages/agent-core-v2/..., packages/transcript/...
Image and video content accepts optional names. Prompt processing and transcript projection preserve names across session media, URLs, files, base64 data, and steering flows.
Stale-guard retirement and restore compatibility
packages/agent-core-v2/src/features/staleGuard/..., packages/agent-core-v2/src/state/..., apps/vis/server/src/lib/agent-record-types.ts, packages/agent-core-v2/docs/...
The stale-guard implementation and current wire declarations were removed. Retired stale-guard records remain recognized during restore, and legacy record interfaces preserve compatibility.
Telemetry initialization and event reconciliation
apps/pythinker-code/src/cli/v2/run-v2-print.ts, packages/telemetry/..., packages/node-sdk/...
Print mode applies telemetry enablement settings, initializes process telemetry, updates session and model context, tracks shutdown, and suppresses duplicate harness startup events.
Non-interactive upgrade option
apps/pythinker-code/src/cli/..., apps/pythinker-code/src/main.ts, docs/reference/pythinker-command.md
pythinker upgrade and update accept -y, --yes. The flag bypasses confirmation and installs the update directly.
TUI session reload and model activation
apps/pythinker-code/src/tui/...
TUI commands reload sessions through the harness. Login and provider flows coordinate lazy session creation and prevent duplicate model-switch tracking.

A failing or slow session-telemetry shutdown no longer skips process-wide telemetry shutdown and app disposal, and the reload tests now install a distinct reloaded session so the return value is genuinely covered.
