fix: bind gateway approvals to turn liveness#4600praisonai-triage-agent[bot] wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
Bind a pending gateway approval to the run generation / session of the turn that requested it, so a superseded or stopped turn cannot leave a turn parked indefinitely on a blocking approval wait, and a resolution that arrives after the turn is gone cannot fire a stale tool or deliver a reply for an abandoned turn. - core: ApprovalRequest gains an optional no-op ``liveness`` predicate. - gateway ExecApprovalManager: register() accepts optional session_id/run_generation; cancel_for_generation() fail-closes pending futures and marks the generation superseded; resolve() drops a stale resolution (fail-closed). Unbound requests behave exactly as today. - gateway ApprovalBackend plumbs session_id/run_generation through. - SessionRunControl gains an optional on_supersede callback fired on /stop and interrupt so the gateway can cancel the old turn's approvals. Backward compatible: no new user config; the binding is a no-op when a request carries no session/generation. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-authored-by: Mervin Praison <MervinPraison@users.noreply.github.com>

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to This change is intended to invalidate approvals from stopped or superseded turns, but some production paths can still leave those approvals resolvable, including after restart, and may permit privileged actions or persistent allow-always permissions from an abandoned turn. The implementation should not merge until supersession wiring, durable metadata, and cancellation ordering are made fail-closed. Suggested reviewers: Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Greptile SummaryThe PR adds session/run-generation liveness tracking intended to cancel approvals when a turn is stopped or superseded and reject late resolutions. However, the production integration supplies neither the required request metadata nor the cancellation callback.
Confidence Score: 1/5This PR should not merge until production approval requests carry turn metadata and every stop or supersede path invokes generation cancellation. Both required integration links are absent, leaving the manager’s isolated liveness behavior inactive and preserving the stale-tool and blocked-stop failures the change is intended to close.

| Filename | Overview |

| src/praisonai-agents/praisonaiagents/approval/protocols.py | Adds an optional liveness predicate to the approval contract, but production gateway construction does not populate the turn metadata used by the implemented manager path. |

Turn metadata is never supplied
When a gateway turn requests approval, production ApprovalRequest construction supplies neither session_id nor context.run_generation, so this code registers an unbound request. Stopping or superseding the turn therefore cannot select the approval for cancellation, and a late approval can still authorize the abandoned tool call.
How this was verified: Every core ApprovalRequest construction site omits the two liveness values consumed here.

Supersede callback remains disconnected
When /stop or interrupt abandons a turn waiting for approval, the production SessionRunControl is constructed without on_supersede, so _notify_supersede returns without calling cancel_for_generation. The pending future remains blocked and no superseded marker rejects a late resolution.
How this was verified: Production constructor and call-site inspection found no supplied on_supersede callback and no production caller of cancel_for_generation.

Fail-close registrations for an already superseded generation.
If cancel_for_generation() marks a generation before ExecApprovalManager.register() acquires _lock, register() still inserts the request into _pending. The future can remain unresolved until reviewer action or timeout, leaving the stopped turn blocked. Check the marker under _lock and return a denied future instead.

Reject an invalid run_generation before registration.
If a session-bound request contains a non-integer run_generation, cancel_for_generation() can raise during comparison. _notify_supersede() swallows the error, so the approval remains pending. resolve() can also pop the request before raising, leaving its future unresolved. Validate the value before calling register(), and deny invalid session-bound requests.

Summary
Bind a pending gateway approval to the run generation / session of the turn that requested it, closing the two silent-failure gaps in the issue:
/stopcan't unblock a pending approval — a turn parked on a blocking approval wait now unwinds promptly.Changes

No new user-facing config. The binding is a no-op when a request carries no session/generation — single-turn / no-supersede flows behave exactly as today.
