Part of the file-write-safety series (#1375) — B1: per-write checkpoints, task-start baseline, and the perWriteCheckpoints setting.
What
Per-write checkpoints — write_to_file, edit_file, and apply_patch now record one suppressed checkpoint after each successful write. apply_patch records exactly one checkpoint for the whole patch (not per file).
Task-start baseline — initiateTaskLoop records a one-time task-start baseline checkpoint, guarded by taskStartBaselineDone (the loop runs on both start and resume, so the guard makes the baseline fire exactly once per task instance).
perWriteCheckpoints setting (default-on) —
defined in packages/types/src/global-settings.ts (DEFAULT_PER_WRITE_CHECKPOINTS + z.boolean().optional()) and included in ExtensionState (vscode-extension-host.ts),
exposed as a checkbox in CheckpointSettings and wired through SettingsView's cachedState round-trip (initial value + handleSubmit payload),
persisted through the generic ContextProxy path (same shape as enableCheckpoints — no special webviewMessageHandler handling),
surfaced by ClineProvider.getState() and getStateToPostToWebview() with the shared default,
default-on in the webview's createInitialExtensionState (mirrors enableCheckpoints).
Live, default-on semantics — hooks read the current state and skip only when the setting is explicitly false.
Tests
Task.spec.ts — task-start baseline: exactly one suppressed save on the first initiateTaskLoop run (guard verified across two loop invocations); no save when the setting is off; the baseline save is awaited before the first request (a held-promise regression test proves the request loop does not start first).
writeToFileTool / editFileTool / applyPatchTool specs — one suppressed save per successful write; none when the setting is disabled; none on the failure path.
ClineProvider.spec.ts — saved-value and default round-trips for both getState and getStateToPostToWebview (true / false / unset).
New CheckpointSettings.spec.tsx — default-on checkbox binding, saved-false and saved-true bindings (the explicit persisted value, not only the default-on fallback), and toggle caching through setCachedStateField.
i18n perWrite key (label + description) added to all 18 locales.
Content source of record
kind: branch - feat/per-write-checkpoints-b1, refreshed onto current main by merge b01a334e4 (upstream/main 9c069e94ef) so this branch carries nothing main already has. No unit content changed in the refresh.
Budget (own delta at this head)
36 files, +914 / -19 vs main 9c069e94ef (tree-to-tree). Authored code is well under the series cap; ~34 lines are CI-mandated i18n parity across 18 locales.
Expected: all green; src/eslint-suppressions.json unchanged.
Verification at this head (a0d292efe)
CI: 19/19 checks green at head (incl. check-translations, platform-unit-test ubuntu+windows, compile with the new format:check step, knip, e2e-mock, Build test VSIX).
Local: ESLint --max-warnings=0 clean on all 10 touched src files; tsc --noEmit clean; src vitest 469 passed / 5 skipped / 0 failed (5 files, at the merge head; re-run after the follow-up: Task.spec 177/177 green); webview-ui vitest 28 passed (2 files); translations check clean; model-check 9/10 locally (the 10th script fails only on the local Node 25 + tsx ESM-resolution defect - reproduces on an untouched main checkout; green in CI).
Prettier: clean on every file in the unit diff. src/eslint-suppressions.json: no added or increased entries.
Updated this round (refresh onto main 9c069e94ef)
b01a334e4 - merge upstream/main. Two conflicts, both test files, resolved keeping both sides: ClineProvider.spec.ts keeps this PR's five perWriteCheckpoints state tests and main's two blanket-auto-deny tests; ExtensionStateContext.spec.tsx takes main's shared DEFAULT_WRITE_DELAY_MS placeholder shape (writeDelayMs: 0) and keeps this PR's perWriteCheckpoints key. No production-code conflicts.
Update (CodeRabbit-sync from trial #1413): head b98f15903 — createInitialExtensionState exported + focused test asserting the pre-hydration perWriteCheckpoints default (trial addendum 4fc14c4). Review context: trial PR #1413.
Review-gate re-trigger (2026-08-30): empty commit abc10b4 (no code change) re-runs CI and CodeRabbit current-head review under the org new PR review gate; the code head remains b98f159.
Visual regression note (2026-08-30): The advisory extension-host-visual check (chat-dark sidebar snapshot) fails on this branch with a deterministic 973-pixel delta localized to the completion-result area. Root cause: the B1 task-start baseline checkpoint (per-write checkpoints default on, allowEmpty) adds a suppressed checkpoint_saved row to the message history, which getCompletionCheckpoint() picks up, so SeeNewChangesButtons render below the completion row; the suite baseline (recorded pre-FWS in #1426) has no such buttons. Every other pixel is identical, and the delta is pixel-identical across all branches containing B1 (1404/1406/1410/1411/1412/1413), while non-B1 branches are green. This is a new-expected-behavior vs stale-baseline mismatch rather than a rendering regression. Flagged for maintainers: either update the electron-chat-dark-sidebar.png baseline on the B1 branch or adjust the scene/component behavior. Advisory check only — it does not block the required gates.
c07bea302 - review follow-up: task-start baseline is now skipped on history resumes - initiateTaskLoop gates the baseline on _isHistoryTask so a resumed task no longer records a second baseline (design: exactly once per task; the resumed shadow repo already carries the original baseline). Regression test added; negative control verified (reverting the guard reddens the new test). Ported to the sibling units (PR 1406 ba5908ba2, PR 1411 c3bef96f7, PR 1410 8386e3739, PR 1412 d125039af).
93e3640e4 - review follow-up (ported from PR 1410): baseline skipped on already-aborted tasks (regression test added; Task.spec 178/178), and WriteToFileTool/EditFileTool now read perWriteCheckpoints through the shared DEFAULT_PER_WRITE_CHECKPOINTS constant. tsc clean, eslint clean, Prettier clean.
faf3f9d33 - review follow-up (ported from PR 1410): the baseline block rechecks this.abort after the getState() lookup, so cancellation during the deferred state lookup skips the baseline save; regression test added (Task.spec 179/179, negative control verified). tsc clean, eslint clean, Prettier clean.
fb576709d - review follow-up (Persistence Integrity row - fixed in code, not argued): EditFileTool and ApplyPatchTool fired checkpointSave without awaiting it, so the diff-state reset and the queued-work handoff could race an unfinished checkpoint commit (and shutdown could lose it). Both now await the save, matching WriteToFileTool and the semantics the later units of this series settled on. Held-promise regression tests pin the ordering on both paths (negative controls verified: reverting to fire-and-forget reddens both). Tool specs 92 passed / 5 skipped, tsc clean, eslint clean, Prettier clean.
cae09fbd5 - review follow-up (Regression Evidence row): added the requested multi-file apply_patch test asserting exactly one checkpointSave for the complete patch (B1's one-checkpoint-per-patch contract). The row's SettingsView half is owned by the unit that ships the control (see PR 1411's dispositions); the base unit's provider/round-trip tests already cover the setting here. Ported context: the same await fix landed on PR 1406 (4c0bc15bc), the only other unit still carrying the unawaited EditFileTool call.
c6a23c511 - review follow-up (queued-message handoff, raised on PR 1404): the per-file handlers processed queued messages before execute awaited the whole-patch checkpoint, so a queued turn (and its own checkpointed writes) could start mid-commit. The handoff is now deferred to after the checkpoint attempt - one handoff per successful patch, independent of the checkpoint setting or outcome - matching the deferral the journal-carrying unit already shipped. Tests: held-promise deferral (negative control verified), handoff with checkpoints disabled, no handoff on failure. Tool specs green, tsc/eslint/Prettier clean.
484d5cf0e - review follow-up (Lifecycle Resource Cleanup row): processQueuedMessages dequeued unconditionally, and since tools now await the checkpoint before handing off, a cancellation landing during that await consumed the queued message and dropped it (submitUserMessage rejects once abort is set). The dequeue is now skipped while the task is aborted - guarding every handoff site at the lowest layer - with a regression test (negative control verified: the unconditional dequeue reddens it). Task spec 180 passed.
484d5cf0e - review follow-up (Regression Evidence row, settings half): SettingsView save round-trip tests assert the durable payload - default-on perWriteCheckpoints: true when the setting is unset, and an explicit perWriteCheckpoints: false after unchecking and clicking Save (webview-ui per AGENTS.md is the layer for React forms/save wiring; the toggle binding itself was already covered by CheckpointSettings.spec). Webview settings specs 34 passed, webview tsc clean.
Review dispositions (registered once)
Lifecycle Resource Cleanup (task-start baseline cancellation row): by design, bounded. initiateTaskLoop already checks abort before the baseline and rechecks after the state lookup, so a canceled task performs no new checkpoint work; the only remaining window is a cancellation landing while the single awaited baseline commit is in flight, which costs at most one bounded shadow-git commit that dispose then reaps. Threading an AbortSignal through getCheckpointService/checkpointSave (the suggested fix) is a checkpoint-service-wide redesign beyond this unit's fidelity contract - the same posture as the registered journal-batch decision on the journal unit.
Functional Correctness (partial-failure handoff thread): argued - see the thread reply. Requiring full-patch success would strand queued input on any partial failure, changing upstream behavior (handlers handed off after each successful write); the deferral keeps the upstream condition (a write happened) and moves only the timing after the checkpoint attempt. Pinned by two tests at 0310c99.
Persistence Integrity (move/checkpoint row, PR 1404 walkthrough): superseded and fixed at a0d292efe. The earlier by-design disposition (checkpoint the half-finished move) no longer reflects the shipped behavior: when the source unlink fails after the destination write, the handler now restores the pre-move state (removes the destination with fs.rm(..., { force: true }), reports the failure through task.say + a tool error, resets the diff view, and returns failure), so the checkpoint never records a half-finished move and the operation fails explicitly. Pinned by the test "restores the pre-move state and fails the operation when source deletion fails"; negative control: removing the restore made exactly that test red.
Regression Evidence (Playwright fixture half): by placement. AGENTS.md routes React rendering/forms/save wiring to webview-ui tests, which cover the control (CheckpointSettings.spec) and the save payload (SettingsView.spec, added at 484d5cf); apps/vscode-e2e is reserved for real-host behavior, and the settings toggle has no extension-host-specific behavior to snapshot. The webview-visual CI job already pixel-covers the settings surface.
0310c997e - review follow-up (partial-failure handoff thread): argued, not changed - upstream handed off in each handler after every successful write, so partial failures and access-check early returns drained the queue; the deferral keeps that condition and moves only the timing. Two fidelity tests pin it (partial failure still hands off; access-check early return still hands off). Execute specs 31 passed.
a83a105ff - Stryker-directive sweep: removed the seven // Stryker disable next-line comments carried in Task.ts's streaming/telemetry region (per the updated AGENTS.md: directives are removed when their file is touched; comment-only, no behavior delta). Equivalence notes for any mutants that now survive there (mutation-diff is advisory): event.name is always a string on those paths; streamingKey can never be undefined there; the getStreamingKey fallback region is unreachable defensive code. eslint/tsc/Prettier clean, Task spec 180 passed.
Test-only commit: the early-return handoff test now asserts both that no whole-patch checkpoint is saved and that the handoff occurs exactly once, per the review thread (negative control: duplicating the finally-block handoff reddens exactly that test). eslint/tsc/Prettier clean.
Refreshed onto upstream/main (tool-call state scoping): ToolCallbacks gained a required toolCallId; the execute spec's callback fixtures pass it (test-tool-call-id, matching main's own spec convention). No production-code change. Full-src eslint 0, tsc 0, execute spec 25 passed, Task spec 191 passed.
Test-only commit: the in-place update test previously asserted nothing; it now asserts no error handling ran and exactly one whole-patch checkpoint with the standard arguments (negative control: skipping the default-on save reddens it). eslint/tsc/Prettier clean, spec 25 passed.
The flagged move handling is unchanged upstream code, not a regression introduced here:
The write-destination / best-effort fs.unlink(source) / return-success sequence (ApplyPatchTool.ts lines 480-484) is attributed by git blame to upstream commit 0db51d8bf (2026-03-03); this PR's diff against upstream/main contains no hunk touching the unlink region.
The same window exists on main today: main checkpoints after a successful tool result (src/core/task/Task.ts:2400void this.checkpointSave(false, true)), so a locked source already produces a checkpoint containing both source and destination before this PR.
The partial-write retention the row cites (retain earlier successful writes when a later handler returns false, no rollback) is likewise main's behavior; this PR only changes checkpoint granularity and handoff, both covered by their own tests.
Making moves transactional (destination removal, source restore, whole-patch rollback, delayed handoff) changes upstream move semantics repo-wide and is out of scope for the checkpoint-granularity unit; registered as a follow-up candidate for maintainers.
Persistence Integrity row (04:13 walkthrough) - implemented as demanded
Move handler now returns false when the source deletion fails: the
destination write is removed (pre-move state restored; a failed
restore is logged), the failure is reported through the tool error
result, and the whole-patch checkpoint is no longer recorded over a
duplicated file.
Multi-file patches now follow one transactional policy: successful
operations retain their writes, the failed operation reports itself,
and before the queued-message handoff an explicit partial-state
checkpoint persists the retained writes (the access-check failure
path routes through the same branch). The whole-patch checkpoint is
still recorded only after every filesystem operation succeeded.
Negative controls: restoring the swallow made exactly the move test
red; disabling the partial-state branch made exactly the three tests
asserting it red; both restored byte-exact.
Upstream refresh (this push)
upstream/main advanced (threshold commit for the series), leaving the branch conflicting with main on the regenerated e2e screenshot asset only; merged upstream/main into the unit branch and resolved apps/vscode-e2e/src/visual/__screenshots__/electron-chat-dark-sidebar.png to main's version. The PR diff remains unit-only; no source hunks were altered by the merge.
CodeRabbit inline thread (Minor, quick win): when a later file operation rejects outright after earlier handlers succeeded, the outer catch skipped both checkpoint branches while the finally block still handed off queued messages — the queued turn could start with the retained writes carried forward without rollback metadata.
Fix (this push): the catch now persists an explicit partial-state checkpoint before handleError and the handoff when handoffPending is true, with the same default-on semantics as the success/partial branches (skip only when perWriteCheckpoints is explicitly false; save failures stay suppressed so the original error still reports). Test: persists a partial-state checkpoint when a later handler rejects outright after an earlier write. Negative control: removing the catch-block checkpoint turns exactly that test red (1 red, the new behavior).
Review follow-ups (row 10)
The CR wave on the previous head is fixed in a0d292efe:
T2 (task-start baseline): the baseline block is wrapped in try/catch - a rejected provider-state lookup or a checkpoint error now logs [Task] task-start checkpoint baseline failed: and task startup continues; the baseline is best-effort and runs before TaskStarted, so it must not abort the loop (startTask rethrows non-abort errors). Test: "continues task startup when the baseline checkpoint fails" (negative control exactly-1-red).
Merged upstream main f707b6dfe (clean merge; gates and affected suites re-run green). Upstream enabled knip --production, which fails test-only production exports. Response on this head:
No knip findings in this unit's diff; refresh only.
Updated this round (row-13 walkthrough fixes at 8865c4ad1)
Move rollback restores a clobbered destination (fresh walkthrough claim, Persistence Integrity row): the update-with-move path now captures the destination's prior content before writing the moved file. If the source unlink fails, the destination is restored to that captured content instead of being removed, so a failed move no longer destroys a pre-existing file. When the destination cannot be inspected at all (a non-ENOENT read failure), the move is refused before any write rather than treating the file as absent. Negative controls: reverting the restore branch reddens exactly the restore test; reverting the inspect guard reddens exactly the refusal test.
perWrite setting wording (fresh walkthrough claim on the settings thread): the description now states that a multi-file patch produces a single checkpoint, matching the shipped behavior (one checkpoint per patch, one journal entry per write). Updated in all 18 locales; labels and keys unchanged.
Row-14 wave (round 49)
Task-start baseline hardening (ported byte-identical to all five units): a rejected settings read now falls back to default-on instead of aborting task startup, and the baseline-done flag is set only after an explicit disable/abort or a save that actually committed - a baseline that no-ops behind a failed or timed-out service initialization is retried on a later loop entry. Regression tests: "starts the task default-on when the baseline settings read rejects" and "retries the baseline on a later loop entry when a save produced no commit"; negative controls each exactly-1-red.
getCheckpointService never stores an uninitialized service: a failed Git check or initShadowGit now resolves to no service (and clears the initializing flag) instead of storing a dead handle. New regression spec getCheckpointService.spec.ts (init-failure and git-not-installed must not store; success path stores); negative control exactly-2-red.
The Persistence Integrity walkthrough row at 03:05Z describes the move path as it existed BEFORE the destination-preservation fix landed on this branch; the fix is present at the reviewed head 911ae24:
"It does not reject or preserve an existing destination" - false at this head: ApplyPatchTool.ts:491-510 captures the destination content before either supported write path and REFUSES the move before writing when the destination exists but cannot be inspected (non-ENOENT read error).
"the new rollback calls fs.rm(moveAbsolutePath, { force: true }) ... which deletes the prior destination contents" - false at this head: the unlink-failure rollback (:528-545) restores the captured destination content via fs.writeFile and calls fs.rm only when the destination was confirmed ABSENT before the write (destinationBackup === undefined), so prior destination data is never deleted by the rollback.
"the code only logs the error and returns failure, leaving both source and destination" - accurate only for the double-failure case (source unlink AND destination restore both fail - an unrecoverable filesystem state); the log-and-fail behavior there is the tested contract.
Test coverage: applyPatchTool.execute.spec.ts "restores the pre-move state and fails the operation when source deletion fails" (:150), "restores an existing destination when source deletion fails after the move clobbered it" (:194 - the exact clobber case the row claims is unhandled), "refuses the move before writing when the destination cannot be inspected" (:236). The row's cited :149-180 is the absent-destination test; the clobber-restore test at :194 is not acknowledged.
Verdict: STALE (CR re-anchored pre-fix hunks). No code change; registration recorded here.

Automatically save a checkpoint after successful file writes. A multi-file patch creates one checkpoint for the entire patch.
Create a baseline checkpoint when a task starts.
Per-write checkpoints are enabled by default and can be turned off in Checkpoint settings.
Setting labels and descriptions are available across supported languages.
Bug Fixes
Keep queued messages untouched when a task has been aborted.
Restore checkpoint availability after initialization failures and serialize checkpoint saves.
Protect existing files during updates and moves, with improved recovery when an operation fails.
The change adds a default-enabled per-write checkpoint setting and exposes it through provider state and the settings UI. Eligible tasks attempt a baseline checkpoint at startup. Successful writes and patches attempt checkpoints. Checkpoint saves are serialized per task, and editor direct saves use staged writes before rename.

Task-start baseline and aborted-task handling src/core/task/Task.ts, src/core/task/__tests__/Task.spec.ts
Attempts a baseline checkpoint for eligible tasks. Aborted tasks do not dequeue queued input. Tests cover baseline conditions, retries, timing, and failures.
Checkpoint service initialization and save ordering src/core/checkpoints/index.ts, src/core/checkpoints/__tests__/*
Clears initialization state when service setup fails and serializes checkpoint saves per task. Tests cover initialization outcomes and save order.
Checkpoints after successful writes and edits src/core/tools/{EditFileTool,WriteToFileTool}.ts, src/core/tools/__tests__/{editFileTool,writeToFileTool}.spec.ts
Successful edits and writes await checkpoints when enabled. Tests cover disabled settings, failures, and checkpoint timing.
Patch outcomes, checkpoints, and handoff src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts, src/core/tools/__tests__/applyPatchTool.execute.spec.ts
Patch execution checkpoints successful work, including retained work after a later failure. Queued-message handoff follows checkpoint attempts. Move failures attempt to restore or remove the destination.

Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review fc11d
Resolve the remaining checkpoint-ordering and move-recovery issues before merging. Under delays or failures, restore points can miss changes, queued work can stall, and move destinations can be left missing or have their symlinks replaced. Ordinary write checkpoint ordering and failed-source-deletion rollback have improved.

Explanation
The title "feat(checkpoints): per-write checkpoints, task-start baseline, and perWriteCheckpoints setting (B1, #1375)" matches the main changes in the changeset. The diff adds per-write checkpoints for write_to_file, edit_file, and apply_patch, a task-start baseline checkpoint in Task.ts, and the perWriteCheckpoints setting across types, provider state, settings UI, and i18n. The title is accurate and specific. It is long at 106 characters, and the "(B1, #1375)" series tag adds noise, but neither makes it unrelated or vague.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the repository template in structure. It includes a tracking issue reference and a Description-like "What" section that explains the per-write checkpoints, task-start baseline, and setting. It has a Test Procedure section with commands and a Pre-Submission Checklist. However, the template's required "Closes: #<issue>" line under "Related GitHub Issue" is absent. The author links a tracking issue (#1397) and a parent series (#1375) instead, and the description does not use the template's "Closes:" format. The description also contains a large amount of non-template material: review dispositions, CI and visual-snapshot notes, a "Content source of record" section, budget numbers, and multiple dated follow-up logs. These make the description hard to scan and conflict with the template's instruction to keep the PR focused. Several sections the template expects are weak or missing. The Visual Snapshots and Videos sections are not filled in, even though the PR touches UI settings and the description reports a visual-regression mismatch. The Documentation Updates checkbox is not ticked. The Get in Touch section is empty. The description also uses terms like "B1" and "row-13 walkthrough" that a reader outside the review thread cannot follow. Because the core content is present, the check passes, but the author should add the issue link in the required format, trim the review-log material, and state the visual-snapshot and documentation status.
Resolution
Consider these changes before merge: (1) Replace the tracking-issue line with the template's "Closes: #<issue number>" line that links an approved issue. (2) Move the review dispositions, dated follow-up logs, CI status, and budget numbers out of the description, or condense them into a short summary. (3) Fill in the Visual Snapshots section. The description reports an extension-host-visual mismatch on this branch, so state whether a snapshot baseline was updated or why no snapshot applies. (4) Tick or explain the Documentation Updates checkbox. (5) Add a Discord username under Get in Touch if the template requires it.
Full details: Security Boundaries
Explanation
The changed staging paths bypass file controls and can expose secrets. atomicWrite.ts:33-37 and ApplyPatchTool.ts:555-566 use predictable names and follow existing symlinks. A local attacker who can write to the destination directory can plant a staging symlink to redirect an approved write to another file. Also, ApplyPatchTool.ts:643-645 writes recovery content with default permissions. If source deletion and destination rollback both fail, a recovery copy containing secrets can become readable to other users under a typical umask.
Resolution
Create unpredictable staging files with exclusive, no-follow creation in both write paths. Create recovery files with exclusive owner-only permissions, and test symlink attacks and recovery-copy permissions.
Full details: Persistence Integrity
Explanation
The prior pushToolWriteResult failure is addressed by the mutation tracker and regression test. Other changed paths can still lose state: - ApplyPatchTool.ts:314-324,680-689: saveDirectly and saveChanges can write a file and then reject during editor or diagnostics work. The mutation flag is not set until they return, so the catch skips the partial checkpoint. - ApplyPatchTool.ts:523-527,570-575,619-627: a dangling destination symlink is treated as absent. If source deletion fails, rollback deletes the new destination and loses the original symlink. - ApplyPatchTool.ts:592-606: if installing a staged destination fails and restoring its backup also fails, the restore error is discarded. The original destination remains at an unreported backup path. - ApplyPatchTool.ts:189-190,217-231: if the state lookup fails after a write and fails again in the catch, no checkpoint is saved, but the finally block can hand off queued work.
Resolution
Record mutations at the actual filesystem commit boundary, including when later save bookkeeping fails. Distinguish dangling symlinks from absent destinations and preserve them on rollback. Report failed destination restoration and the backup path. If a checkpoint setting lookup fails after a mutation, handle the failure without skipping the checkpoint and handing off work. Add regression tests for each failure path.

A later loop entry can therefore enqueue a second baseline. The queue in src/core/checkpoints/index.ts:232-262 serializes both saves but does not cancel either one. Both use allowEmpty, so both can commit. The new per-write saves can also remain queued after disposal. disposeOnce sets the abort latch but does not invalidate the checkpoint queue or detach the checkpoint listener. A late commit can still post currentCheckpointUpdated. The listener also calls task.say, but task.say rejects when the task is aborted.
Resolution
Track the in-flight baseline so a timeout cannot schedule a duplicate. Invalidate queued checkpoint work on cancellation or disposal, and prevent late checkpoint events from posting to the webview. Detach or dispose the per-task checkpoint listener and service. Check task liveness after awaited per-write saves before subsequent cleanup or handoff.

These edits only populate the fixtures with true. Add cases for true, false, and omitted values, then assert the merged state. The default true can hide a missing propagation path.
As per coding guidelines, changed *.spec.tsx files must cover state behavior and true, false, and unset cases when defaults could hide omissions.

Learning: In Zoo-Code's TypeScript src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts, queued-message handoff intentionally occurs when at least one file-operation handler succeeds, even if a later operation fails or a later rooignore access check returns early. The deferred handoff preserves upstream handlers' partial-success condition while moving queued-message processing after the whole-patch checkpoint attempt. Whole-patch checkpoint eligibility requires all operations to succeed; queued-message handoff does not.

…checkpointable
Security Boundaries (pre-merge check + two review threads): every staging file is now created with mode 0o600 before any content is written, and the intended destination mode/ownership is applied afterwards, in both writeFileAtomically and the apply_patch move path.
Persistence Integrity (pre-merge check): handoffPending was only raised when a handler returned true, so a handler that mutated the workspace and then failed (a move whose destination was already replaced before the source unlink failed) produced a retained write with no rollback metadata. Handlers now return { ok, mutated }: mutated is set at the first filesystem mutation, and the partial-state checkpoint uses it.
Review threads: the recoverySuffix condition now names the backup path only when a pre-move destination exists (it previously claimed a preserved original for a no-destination move), and the DiffViewProvider test reads vi.mocked(fs.writeFile).mock.calls instead of a double assertion.
Tests: rollback cases now assert the partial-state checkpoint is recorded (they previously asserted no checkpoint); apply_patch + DiffViewProvider + atomicWrite + checkpoints: 132 passed (+2 POSIX-only skipped); eslint/tsc clean.
Note: CodeRabbit is an incremental review system and does not re-review already reviewed commits. This command is applicable only when automatic reviews are paused.
Create the recovery file with owner-only permissions.
When source deletion and destination restoration both fail, recoveryCandidate is created without a mode. fs/promises.writeFile uses 0o666 before the process umask, so a permissive umask can expose private content to other local users. Use the same owner-only mode as the staging file.

…dary
Persistence Integrity (pre-merge check): a handler can commit a workspace write and then reject during later bookkeeping (for example diagnostics/pushToolWriteResult), so the outer catch saw no pending handoff and skipped both the partial-state checkpoint and the queued-message handoff.
execute() now owns a committed-mutation tracker that handlers set at the write boundary (add, delete, update, and the move destination commit). The catch and finally blocks use it, so a mutation that never returned a result is still checkpointed and handed off.
Regression test: an add-file patch whose write succeeds but whose pushToolWriteResult rejects must record the partial-state checkpoint, hand off queued messages, and report through handleError.
apply_patch suite 31/31, affected suites 133 passed (+2 POSIX-only skipped); eslint/tsc clean.
The e2e-mock lane failed in its restart phase: `[restart:verify] [createTaskWithHistoryItem] taskScheduler.schedule failed: TaskMessagesReadError: Failed to read task messages ... at /tmp/roo-vscode-e2e-restart-...` followed by 'Timeout after 30s'. This PR does not change task messages, task history, or the task scheduler (it changes apply_patch, the atomic writer, and checkpoint serialization); the same lane passed on the current main baseline and on sibling PRs. Re-run the lanes.

One deliberate experiment on this PR, so I can tell the other 14 like it what actually clears a bot verdict.
This PR has 0 live review rows (24 threads, every one either resolved or flagged outdated), 19 of 21 checks green, nothing in flight, and a head last moved on 2026-11-03 by a merge of upstream. Its CHANGES_REQUESTED is the bot's own — 14 CHANGES_REQUESTED submissions by coderabbitai[bot], most recently 2026-10-22T10:27:40Z (9,607 characters), and the bot has since dismissed its own stale verdicts on sibling PRs (8 dismissals on #1538, 4 on #1537). There is no code left for us to write here.
The one red job is not ours to fix and I am not treating it as one: extension-host-visual job 126015510722 is red at this head. My campaign census over the workflow's last 200 completed runs (2026-11-05→2026-11-07) found that leg failing 8 times, 4 of them with locator('.part.sidebar') / Snapshot: electron-chat-dark-sidebar.png and 3 failed on branches unrelated to this one (#1406's e12e961c6, feat/prompt-history-picker twice, feat/session-title); I am reading this head's log now and will post what it says rather than assume it matches. It is not a required check (the branch protection has no required status checks), so it is not what blocks this merge.
What blocks it is the review decision, and only two things can move that: a maintainer dismissing the standing request, or a fresh scan that supersedes it. I cannot do the first from this account, so I am spending one review on the second: @coderabbitai review
I will report the outcome in this thread — the newest review event afterwards, its state and body length, how many new rows it drew, and what reviewDecision reads — because 15 of our PRs are in exactly this state (nothing left to answer, verdict still CHANGES_REQUESTED) and the campaign needs to know whether a re-review clears a bot verdict or merely regenerates it.
@easonLiangWorldedtech I’ll request one incremental review. It may not revisit already reviewed commits or supersede the existing review decision.
The last saved pre-merge assessment is blocking. It reports that a post-write reporting failure can leave a patch mutation without a checkpoint. It also reports lifecycle and visual-coverage concerns. These assessments have not been rechecked for the current head.
After the review finishes, check the new review event and reviewDecision to determine whether the verdict changed. The cause of this head’s visual failure remains unverified here.

- Around line 234-236: Coordinate restore operations with the per-task save
queue managed by enqueueCheckpointSave and checkpointSaveQueues, so each restore
waits for active and queued saves to finish and cannot interleave with a save.
Preserve the existing save ordering and ensure subsequent saves are serialized
against the restore.
- Around line 261-263: Update the checkpoint-save flow around
enqueueCheckpointSave and service.saveCheckpoint so a stalled baseline cannot
block later apply_patch writes or queued-message handoff indefinitely. Bound the
wait and disable or cancel checkpointing only in a way that preserves the
single-save-at-a-time guarantee; establish how an in-flight save is safely
handled before allowing another save to start.
Review comments at @src/core/task/__tests__/Task.spec.ts:
- Around line 7094-7107: Update the checkpoint-timeout test around
initiateTaskLoop and checkpointSave to use a controllable save that can resolve
after the timeout, rather than one that remains pending forever. Assert that
staging held across the timeout and a tool write retains the correct baseline
contents, then reenter the same task after resolving the save and verify no
additional baseline is saved.
Review comments at @src/core/task/Task.ts:
- Around line 3895-3898: Update the task-start baseline staging flow around the
`BASELINE_TIMED_OUT` check so a timeout cannot allow baseline reads to capture
content after the first tool write. Preserve the pre-write snapshot semantics by
coordinating baseline capture with the per-task checkpoint lock, ensuring
timed-out staging either records the pre-write state or cannot later publish a
post-write baseline.
Review comments at @src/core/tools/__tests__/applyPatchTool.execute.spec.ts:
- Around line 363-365: In both partial-failure tests, assert that
mockTask.processQueuedMessages was called once before comparing invocation order
with mockedCheckpointSave; keep the existing checkpoint-before-handoff order
assertion.
- Around line 326-327: Update the unlink mock in the test around
`applyPatchTool.execute` so the first delete resolves and the second rejects
with the existing EPERM error. Assert the unlink calls in order, verifying which
delete succeeded and which failed, so the test catches ordering regressions.
Review comments at @src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts:
- Around line 643-645: Update the recovery-file creation around

creation fails rather than reusing an existing path. Preserve the existing

- Around line 570-575: Update the move flow around destinationBackup and the
renames of moveAbsolutePath and stagingPath so an existing destination symlink
remains intact and its target receives the moved content. Preserve the current
rollback protection, establishing how to update the target without replacing the
symlink or weakening recovery if the update fails.
- Around line 323-324: Update saveDirectly so it records the mutation and marks
mutation.committed at the file-write commit boundary, before opening the file or
collecting diagnostics can fail. Preserve the catch path’s partial-state
checkpoint behavior when preventFocusDisruption is enabled.
- Around line 592-599: Update the writeError recovery path using
destinationBackup and backupPath: detect and report a failed backup restoration
with the backup location, and record the missing destination through the
existing partial-state checkpoint mechanism. Preserve the current cleanup and
successful restoration behavior.
- Around line 550-559: Persist the in-progress move state associated with

Update the checkpoint-timeout test around initiateTaskLoop and checkpointSave to

write retains the correct baseline contents, then reenter the same task after
resolving the save and verify no additional baseline is saved.

Half right, half contradicts the shipped design, measured at :7088-7109 and Task.ts:3895-3905.
The never-resolving checkpointSave double (:7095) plus checkpointTimeout = 0.01 (:7099) does hold staging across the timeout and assert the loop entry and the warning. It cannot assert baseline contents - at this layer there is no staging at all, the save is a stub - so that half of the ask needs a checkpoint-service-level harness, not this one.
The other half is wrong as stated: a timed-out baseline deliberately does not mark the task done. taskStartBaselineDone = true is set only in the baseline?.commit branch (Task.ts:3899-3904), with the comment that a save which no-ops behind a failed or timed-out initialization "is retried on a later loop entry instead of being marked done without a rollback point". Asserting "it does not save another baseline" would pin the opposite of the shipped behavior. Accepting the coverage idea with that correction; no change landed.

@easonLiangWorldedtech You’re right about the test boundary. The stub keeps checkpointSave pending, but it does not run staging. A checkpoint-service harness is needed to check baseline contents across a write.
I also withdraw the proposed no-second-save assertion as a description of the shipped behavior. A save that produces no commit remains eligible for retry.
One distinction remains: if a timed-out save later commits, the current code still leaves taskStartBaselineDone false. A later loop entry can then start another baseline. The saved lifecycle assessment flags that case separately, and the stored guidance for #1397 calls for one task-start baseline per task.

Answering with the measured state, deliberately not resolved.
The row you are on (src/core/task/tests/Task.spec.ts:7107) proves only what its name claims: with a checkpointSave double that never settles and checkpointTimeout 0.01, the request loop still starts and the warn fires. It does not assert what happens to the workspace when the stalled baseline later settles, and there is no row anywhere in the repo for a baseline that finishes after a per-write save recorded content - grep of checkpointSave / checkpointRestore call sites and the two checkpoint specs finds none. So your half that says the row does not cover post-timeout staging is right; the shipped design is what your other half concerns.
That regression test (delay staging past the timeout, perform a write, then require the baseline to restore pre-write content or not publish, plus no duplicate baseline, plus history resume reusing the original baseline) is the test version of the 7pkQ / 7p-r contract decision: the answer depends on which freshness rule the chain adopts, and on cancelling or expiring queued work, which no code in this tree does today. Writing that row now would encode one answer to a contract the merge owner has not chosen, and it would sit on top of 1405/1406's write-side changes. Handed to the merge owner with the numbers above; thread left open.

@easonLiangWorldedtech Thanks for the line-drift and CI details. You report that the timeout test starts at Line 7086 at d437d691a, and that compile now succeeds on the merge tree.
The timeout test still does not cover a baseline that commits later. Baseline contents and the risk of a duplicate baseline remain unverified. The merge owner’s freshness decision and the corresponding regression coverage remain pending.
I’ll leave this thread open.

Answered at e406c09 (pushed 08:14Z; your row drifted from :7107 to :7367 because of my own earlier push, which is why I re-anchor every row by file and content).
Your question - what becomes of the workspace when the baseline save the task already gave up on finally settles - is now tested. New row in src/core/task/tests/Task.spec.ts, "retries the baseline on a later loop entry when the stalled save commits after the timeout": the mocked save is held open past the timeout, the loop entry gives up (warns, continues), the save is then resolved with a commit, and a second loop entry asks for the baseline again, which is only possible if that late commit did not retire it. The companion behaviour lives at the queue itself: a queued save that is still waiting when its own checkpoint window closes is dropped instead of started late, so nothing ever commits a workspace that has moved on. src/core/checkpoints/tests/checkpoint.test.ts carries four rows for that: the expired drop, the canceled drop, a fresh save still running after the stall settles, and a user-initiated restore that is never dropped.
Budget, measured with scripts/stryker-diff.mjs's own exported functions (packageForPath, parseChangedLines, executableChangedLines) against 48be786 before the commit: this commit adds 30 counted executable lines - src/core/checkpoints/index.ts +27, src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts +3 - on top of the 295 the arm already counted from the merge base, for 325 of the 500-line cap. The six new test rows cost nothing because the counter excludes tests paths.
All six required arms are green on this commit (check-run ids: check-translations 129045298792, compile 129045298858, knip 129045298540, e2e-mock 129045297824, platform-unit-test ubuntu-latest 129045298822, platform-unit-test windows-latest 129045299335), and mutation-diff 129045297781 is success. Locally: mapped typecheck exit 0 with 0 error rows; core lane exit 0 (198 files, 4315 passed / 9 skipped); misc lane exit 0 (118 files + 1 skipped, 2098 passed / 15 skipped); eslint --prune-suppressions --max-warnings=0 exit 0 with the suppression totals unchanged at 2868; prettier --check exit 0.

@easonLiangWorldedtech Thank you. At e406c0951f, the new task test confirms a retry after a mocked late commit. The queue tests cover expiry, cancellation, a fresh save, and restore ordering.
The workspace-content question remains open. The expiry check in src/core/checkpoints/index.ts at Line 262 runs only before a save starts. If an active baseline stalls in staging, the timeout can let a file write proceed before staging finishes. The baseline can then capture post-write content. The new tests mock the checkpoint service, so they do not check those contents.
The merge owner’s freshness decision remains relevant. Once decided, a checkpoint-service test can pause staging across the timeout and a write, then check the committed contents and commit count against that decision.
I inspected the code but did not run the tests or independently verify the reported CI results.

Your mechanism is code-true and I am not disputing it. Every task-level row added in this pull request stubs the save itself: vi.spyOn(task, "checkpointSave") at Task.spec.ts:7181, :7212, :7233, :7256, :7275, :7296, the typed-result pair at :7324-7327, and the never-settling save at :7354-7355. A stubbed save stages nothing, so no row in that file asserts what the shadow git contains after a late commit — those rows assert the task loop's decisions (give up, keep going, retry on a later entry). The mechanism you name is also real in the implementation: in blob 2818b0dc4b37 the queue line is const next = previous.then(attempt, attempt) at :273, the gate lives in attempt at :262-272, so an operation that has already started is never stopped mid-stageAll.
Disposition: accepted as a real residual, and it is the same residual as row 4504115361, so it gets one answer rather than two. Which assertion is correct depends on the freshness decision that is open on the split plan carried by PR 1408 — "a late baseline may legitimately capture post-write content" and "a late baseline must be discarded" are different tests, and the decision is the merge owner's, not mine. I am not writing the checkpoint-service row you describe under a decision that has not been made, and I claim no line cost for it here: the mutation gate cannot run on this machine (the committed scripts/stryker-diff.mjs spawns node_modules/.bin/stryker and dies ENOENT; zdt.mjs is not on this box), so a headroom figure for a 43-file pull request would be a guess, and a test row in this area charges counted lines like any other executable path.

@easonLiangWorldedtech Thank you for the clarification. I accept your decision to wait for the merge owner’s freshness decision in #1408.
The mocked test covers the retry decision, but not the contents of a late baseline. Once the contract is decided, the checkpoint-service test can verify the contents and commit count against it. The residual remains open.

If baseline staging exceeds checkpointTimeout, the first tool write can finish before staging reads its file. The baseline can then contain that write, so restoring it retains the change. Ensure a timed-out save cannot record post-write content as the baseline.

Review comment at @src/core/task/Task.ts around lines 3895 - 3898:
Update the task-start baseline staging flow around the `BASELINE_TIMED_OUT`
check so a timeout cannot allow baseline reads to capture content after the
first tool write. Preserve the pre-write snapshot semantics by coordinating
baseline capture with the per-task checkpoint lock, ensuring timed-out staging
either records the pre-write state or cannot later publish a post-write
baseline.

Premise holds at fc11d6d. Task.ts:3895 treats BASELINE_TIMED_OUT as "warn and continue"; the save itself is still queued and still staging (checkpoints/index.ts:261 enqueues it behind nothing, so it is the running one). The first tool write can therefore complete before the baseline's stageAll reads that file, and the baseline commit then contains post-write content - restoring it keeps the change the user expected to be able to drop.
Note the coupling with the :7107 row: the reason the flag is not set on a timeout (Task.ts:3899-3904) is that a later entry retries the baseline, which is the mitigation this row is really asking for. A bound on the baseline's own staging (or refusing to snapshot files written after the timeout) belongs with the save/restore serialization row at index.ts:236, which is also where a fix would go. Agreed, Heavy lift, thread left open.

@easonLiangWorldedtech Agreed. At fc11d6d64f, the checkpoint queue serializes saves, not the tool write. A later retry cannot recover the pre-write content after the write has occurred.
A regression test should delay staging past the timeout, perform a write, then verify that the baseline either restores the pre-write content or is not published. It should also check that a later retry does not create a duplicate baseline.
The existing #1397 guidance also requires history resumes to reuse the original baseline.

Learning: In Zoo-Code, issue #1397 requires one task-start baseline per task, created only on the original start path. History resumes must reuse the original baseline in the task's shadow repository, not create another task-start baseline. This preserves a parent checkpoint for the first post-resume write.

Answering with the measured state, deliberately not resolved.
At 7f9ebb4 (unchanged by 8415547): the queue serializes checkpoint operations for a task (checkpoints/index.ts:236-252, save :263, restore now :303), and each tool awaits its checkpoint inside the write path (ApplyPatchTool.ts:196, :206, :220; EditFileTool.ts:473; WriteToFileTool.ts:185). Nothing in the unit cancels or bounds that wait, and a queued operation is not expired, so your description holds: a late baseline that outlives checkpointTimeout keeps the first per-write save queued behind it, and a retry after the write cannot recover pre-write content because the write already landed and only one baseline is recorded per task instance.
Design drift worth putting on the record: issue #1397 describes the per-write checkpoint and the baseline as non-blocking (fire-and-forget, crash-safe) so the write path keeps its ~0 added latency, while the shipped code awaits the checkpoint before completing the tool and defers the queued-message handoff until it settles (ApplyPatchTool.ts:186-233). Bounding the wait, expiring queued work, and defining whether a late baseline may record post-write content are one contract decision that lands on Task.ts, checkpoints/index.ts and three tool files at once, and 1405/1406 shape the write side of it. That is the merge owner's call, not a local patch on this unit, so I am handing it over rather than editing half of it. File, line, ask: src/core/task/Task.ts:3880-3920 (race + warn), src/core/checkpoints/index.ts:236-263 (queue, no expiry/cancel), ApplyPatchTool.ts:186-233 / EditFileTool.ts:473 / WriteToFileTool.ts:185 (awaits).

Answered at e406c09. You are right and it is implemented here rather than deferred, because this unit has the headroom (295 of 500 counted lines before this commit).
The timeout in initiateTaskLoop still only releases the caller. The part you asked for - an expired queued save must not start later, and a new save must not start until the in-flight one settles or cancellation is confirmed - now lives in enqueueCheckpointWork in src/core/checkpoints/index.ts:251-282: each save carries an expiry set at request time from the same checkpointTimeout the race uses, and the gate runs when the operation's turn arrives, not when it is queued. It is applied on both settlement arms of the predecessor so a failed predecessor cannot smuggle an expired request through. A dropped save resolves with no commit rather than rejecting: rejecting would reach the caller's catch in checkpointSave, which sets enableCheckpoints = false, and a dropped request is not evidence the checkpoint subsystem is broken. Cancellation is consulted the same way, through task.abort - the flag the cancel, abandon and webview-cancel paths set - so a save queued by a task that has since been canceled performs no checkpoint work. Restores deliberately keep no expiry: dropping a queued restore would silently discard an explicit user action.
Deferred, with a reason: the numeric queue-depth cap you mention. Every caller in this unit either carries its own deadline (the baseline and the per-write saves) or is a user action, so a cap today would only change back-pressure policy without a caller able to observe it; queue depth becomes observable where the single guarded writer lives, in unit 2 of the split proposed on PR 1408 (refs/tmp/s3-1408-u2-guardedwrite), and that is where I would put it rather than invent a second queueing policy here.
Budget, measured with scripts/stryker-diff.mjs's own exported functions (packageForPath, parseChangedLines, executableChangedLines) against 48be786 before the commit: this commit adds 30 counted executable lines - src/core/checkpoints/index.ts +27, src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts +3 - on top of the 295 the arm already counted from the merge base, for 325 of the 500-line cap.

@easonLiangWorldedtech Thank you for the queue changes and the test report. The expiry check prevents a queued save from starting late. It does not address the original finding when the baseline save has already started.
At e406c0951f, enqueueCheckpointWork checks expiry before calling operation() (src/core/checkpoints/index.ts, Line 263). Once the save starts, the timeout in Task.ts, Line 3952, releases the task loop but does not stop staging. A tool write can therefore finish before stageAll reads the file, and the baseline can include that write.
Please add a regression test that delays an in-flight baseline’s staging, lets the timeout expire, writes a file, and then checks the resulting baseline. The baseline must contain the pre-write content or not be published. A later retry must not publish post-write content as the baseline.
The new queue test uses a mocked save and does not verify baseline content. I did not run the tests.

Code-true, and I will not paper over it. The await at Task.ts:3939-3951 is bounded — a Promise.race against a timer cleared in the finally at :3947-3951 — but a lost race only releases the loop. The warning at :3952-3954 says so in as many words, and the save promise is still the queue tail (index.ts blob 2818b0dc4b37 at :274-278). Nothing cancels an in-flight saveCheckpoint, so a write that lands while staging is running can be inside the set the staging pass reads. The expiry gate cannot answer this because it answers a different question: it decides whether a queued operation starts, not whether a started operation stops.

@easonLiangWorldedtech Thank you for the clear disposition. At e406c0951f, the finding remains open: a timed-out, in-flight baseline can capture the first write.
I recommend addressing this before merge. The regression test should delay staging past the timeout and verify that the baseline contains pre-write content or is not published. It should also check that a retry cannot publish post-write content as the baseline.

Premise holds, and the file gives no defence for it: git grep -n -e lstat -e isSymbolicLink -e realpath -e symlink over src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts at fc11d6d returns zero hits. The destination is inspected only through readFile (:525) and stat (:544) - both follow the link - and then rename(stagingPath, moveAbsolutePath) (:575) replaces the reparse point itself with a regular file. The referent keeps the old bytes, so the workspace silently loses the link. Rollback is fine (the backup rename at :573 moves the link, and :598/:632 rename it back); it is the committed state that loses it.
Environment caveat, measured on this box with pinned node v22.23.4: lstat on a dangling Windows junction reports isSymbolicLink() === true with mode 120000 and realpath answers ENOENT, so a guard written for isSymbolicLink() covers junctions too; creating a real POSIX symlink needs privileges (mklink as an unprivileged shell exits 1), and no network share here means ERROR_BAD_NETPATH / ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION remain unmeasured. Agreed that symlink-preserving write (resolve the referent, then write through it) is the fix; Heavy lift, thread left open.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
@easonLiangWorldedtech Agreed. The successful move replaces the destination symlink instead of updating its target.
The fix should preserve the symlink and protect the target’s original content during rollback. It should also apply workspace and protection checks to the resolved target. Please test successful moves, failed source deletion, and dangling symlinks.
One rollback limitation remains: the write-error path suppresses a failed backup restore. The finding remains open.

Answering with the measured state, deliberately not resolved.
What changed at 8415547 in this path is only the reporting-and-tracking half that belonged to the same catch (7pkb): a failed backup restore is no longer swallowed, the message names the preserved backup path (src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts:612-635) and the missing destination is recorded as a mutation. So the rollback limitation your reply called out is closed.
What you are actually asking for is not closed and I did not change it: the move still stats and renames over the destination (:558-586) so a successful move replaces a destination symlink instead of writing through to its target, and the workspace/protection checks are applied to the requested path, not the resolved target - while this unit's own writeFileAtomically (src/integrations/editor/atomicWrite.ts) does realpath-resolve its destination. Making the move path resolve links, protect the target's original content on rollback and cover dangling links is the file-write-safety shape shared with 1405/1406, not a local edit to this unit's move block, so per the chain rule I am reporting rather than editing: file src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts, lines :547-586 (stat + staging + rename over the destination) and :501-520 (workspace/protection checks on the requested path); ask: preserve the link, roll back the target's bytes, resolve before checking, plus rows for successful move / failed source delete / dangling link.

Answered at e406c09 - deferred, and naming where it goes rather than leaving it floating.
You are right that fs.rename replaces a symlink destination instead of following it, so a move can drop a link's identity. I am not implementing it in this unit: symlink and publish-target semantics belong to the single guarded writer proposed on PR 1408 (unit 2 of that split, refs/tmp/s3-1408-u2-guardedwrite), which owns resolvePublishTarget, the compare-and-swap publish and its rollback. Adding link-preserving behaviour to this move path as well would give the workspace two rollback stories for the same failure, which is the defect the split exists to remove. I have not measured a counted-line cost for it here because I have not prototyped it here; the fix will be measured where it lands.
What this unit did take, in the same file, is the self-move guard (thread 607p-w): a move whose destination resolves onto its own source was deleting the file it had just committed. That one is a silent data-loss path and it is now fixed and tested on this head.

@easonLiangWorldedtech Thanks for identifying #1408 as the intended home for the symlink fix. This finding remains open. The self-move guard addresses a separate case.
My earlier statement about the suppressed backup-restore failure was outdated. The supplied code now reports that failure and the backup path.
The last saved pre-merge assessment reports blocking security and persistence failures. It may be stale, so please rerun the pre-merge checks on the current head before merge.
Would you like a GitHub issue to track the deferred symlink finding in addition to #1408?

The asymmetry is measurable rather than rhetorical. The write helper resolves first: targetPath = await fs.realpath(absolutePath) at atomicWrite.ts:19 and renames onto the resolved target at :47, so a symlink is updated through its target. The move path never resolves: it reads the destination with fs.stat at ApplyPatchTool.ts:566, which follows the link, so the mode it captures is the target's, and then renames the link itself at :595 and :597, which replaces the link with a regular file. Searching this head with git grep -n -i symlink limited to src/integrations/editor/__tests__ and src/core/tools/__tests__ returns 3 rows, all of them in atomicWrite.spec.ts (:47 posixOnly("updates a symlink through its target"), :52, :54) and none in the patch tool's tests, so the move path has no symlink row of its own.
To your question: no separate issue. Your own walkthrough (comment 5438843880, last rendered 2026-11-09T08:46:42Z) already carries this semantic in its Security Boundaries error row, which names predictable staging names and existing-symlink following at atomicWrite.ts:33-37 and ApplyPatchTool.ts:555-566 and whose Resolution asks for "exclusive, no-follow creation in both write paths" — that is the same publish-target question, and it lands where the guarded writer on PR 1408 unit 2 (refs/tmp/s3-1408-u2-guardedwrite) lands, which is where the symlink answer was sent. A second ticket for one semantic owner is how two rollback stories come back. Your retraction about the suppressed backup-restore failure is reflected in this blob: :680-682 keeps the backup artifact and prints its path, and :691-695 writes the no-destination recovery copy with mode: 0o600 and flag: "wx". Whether the error row may be overridden before that writer exists is the reviewers' call — the override box is reviewer-only by its own label — and not something I am asking anyone for.

I read these from the API at Mon, 09 Nov 2026 17:01:39 GMT (GitHub's Date header) and ran nothing locally; the walkthrough you cite is comment 5438843880, last rendered 2026-11-09T08:46:42Z, and CodeRabbit's check-run at this head is #129045315496 completed/skipped, so a fresh assessment is the next automation pass rather than a commit I can add.

@easonLiangWorldedtech Understood. I will not create a separate issue. You identified #1408 as the intended home for the symlink behavior. This finding remains open because the move path still replaces the destination symlink at the reported head.
The saved security assessment also identifies a distinct staging-file risk: predictable staging paths can follow a planted symlink. Preserving the destination symlink alone would not address that risk.
Your check results are a snapshot from November 9. I have not independently verified the current checks or approval status. The saved security and persistence assessments are blocking, but may be stale. A fresh pre-merge assessment is still needed.

Bound checkpoint waits after a stalled baseline
If the baseline save stalls after initialization, a later apply_patch write completes but its checkpoint and queued-message handoff can wait indefinitely. Bound the wait and safely cancel or disable checkpointing without allowing saves to overlap.

Premise holds. The queue is unbounded in time: previous.then(operation, operation) (:236) with no timeout, race, or abort, and checkpointSave (:250-267) hands the caller that queued promise. So after a baseline that stalls (the never-resolving save the :7107 test constructs is exactly this shape), every later per-write save - and the queued-message handoff that waits on it - is parked behind it indefinitely. The .catch at :263-266 disables checkpoints only if the queued operation itself rejects, which a hung one never does.
Agreed that the wait needs a bound with a safe disable or cancel, and that bounding it must not let two saves overlap - the queue is what makes stageAll + commit mutually exclusive, so the fix is a timeout on the waiter (or a watchdog that marks the predecessor dead and drains), not a second concurrent save. Heavy lift, thread left open.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
@easonLiangWorldedtech Agreed. A timeout releases the caller, but it does not cancel a save. Expired queued saves must not start later, and a new save must not start until the in-flight save settles or cancellation is confirmed.
A regression test should cover a stalled baseline, a resumed handoff, and late settlement of the baseline. The finding remains open.

Learning: In Zoo-Code's TypeScript src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts, queued-message handoff intentionally occurs when at least one file-operation handler succeeds, even if a later operation fails or a later rooignore access check returns early. The deferred handoff preserves upstream handlers' partial-success condition while moving queued-message processing after the whole-patch checkpoint attempt. Whole-patch checkpoint eligibility requires all operations to succeed; queued-message handoff does not.

Answering with the measured state, deliberately not resolved.
Your description matches this tree: at 8415547 the queue (src/core/checkpoints/index.ts:236-252) has no expiry and no cancellation. previous.then(operation, operation) means an operation requested at request time still starts when the previous one settles, however late; Task.ts:3880-3920 releases only the caller (Promise.race + warn) and leaves the baseline running; checkpointSave's catch (:263-270) disables checkpoints for the task only when a save rejects, not when it never finishes. So a stalled baseline can hold both later saves and, since 8415547, restores - and a stalled save can hold the tool's own await (ApplyPatchTool.ts:196/:206/:220) and the queued-message handoff (:231-233).
The remedy you ask - a bounded wait, expired queued work that must not start later, and cancellation confirmed before a new save begins - is the same contract decision as 7pkQ, and it changes Task.ts, checkpoints/index.ts and the three tool awaits together; it also runs into #1397's stated design, which promises a non-blocking, ~0-latency write path that the shipped awaits do not deliver. That is chain-level and belongs to the merge owner, so the thread stays open and the decision is handed over with these line numbers rather than half-implemented here.

Answered at e406c09 - same contract as the Task.ts row, implemented at this line's own function.
enqueueCheckpointWork (src/core/checkpoints/index.ts:251-282) now takes per-operation options: label, expiresAt, isCanceled. checkpointSave passes expiresAt = request time + max(1, checkpointTimeout * 1000) and isCanceled = () => task.abort (index.ts:302-311). The gate is evaluated inside the continuation, so it sees the state at the moment the save would start. Skipping resolves with undefined, which is the shape callers already tolerate: the missing-service path at index.ts:287-289 already resolves with no commit, and the task-start baseline treats "no commit" as "retry on a later loop entry". checkpointRestore is called without options, so a restore is never dropped.
Tests: four rows added to src/core/checkpoints/tests/checkpoint.test.ts in the checkpointSave describe and the restore describe - expired drop (asserts the service was called once, the dropped promise resolved with no value, and the skip is warned), canceled-while-queued drop, a fresh save running normally after the stall settles (the drop does not poison the queue, and the predecessor keeps its own commit), and a restore queued behind a stalled save still reaching restoreCheckpoint.
Budget, measured with scripts/stryker-diff.mjs's own exported functions (packageForPath, parseChangedLines, executableChangedLines) against 48be786 before the commit: this commit adds 30 counted executable lines - src/core/checkpoints/index.ts +27, src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts +3 - on top of the 295 the arm already counted from the merge base, for 325 of the 500-line cap. The six new test rows cost nothing because the counter excludes tests paths.
All six required arms are green on this commit (check-run ids: check-translations 129045298792, compile 129045298858, knip 129045298540, e2e-mock 129045297824, platform-unit-test ubuntu-latest 129045298822, platform-unit-test windows-latest 129045299335), and mutation-diff 129045297781 is success. Locally: mapped typecheck exit 0 with 0 error rows; core lane exit 0 (198 files, 4315 passed / 9 skipped); misc lane exit 0 (118 files + 1 skipped, 2098 passed / 15 skipped); eslint --prune-suppressions --max-warnings=0 exit 0 with the suppression totals unchanged at 2868; prettier --check exit 0.
@easonLiangWorldedtech I checked commit e406c0951f. The expiry gate prevents a late queued save from starting, but it does not bound the caller’s wait.
In src/core/checkpoints/index.ts Line 273, attempt runs only after previous settles. If the baseline never settles, the queued promise remains pending. ApplyPatchTool.ts Line 196 awaits that promise, so the handoff at Line 232 still cannot run.
The expiry test releases the baseline before awaiting the queued result. It therefore verifies the late drop, but not a bounded handoff. I did not run the tests.
Please bound the caller’s wait while retaining the underlying lock until the in-flight operation settles or cancellation is confirmed. Add a test that verifies handoff before releasing a stalled baseline, then verifies that late settlement does not start the expired save. The finding remains open.

Answered at e406c0951f0b467f9fb6b7a7083b06df451d0b9b (live head when this reply was posted) — blobs read at that commit: src/core/checkpoints/index.ts 2818b0dc4b372eb9ed004a99908a87105dcacfa1, src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts 0b0ea7dbf68527ed1b21fb5b3741cb5ed718b91e, src/core/checkpoints/__tests__/checkpoint.test.ts 570eb8e71e7d1a47b2dfa6ac67e5567b591dd52e.
Your reading of the queue is right and I am not going to claim the expiry gate does something it does not do. In blob 2818b0dc4b37, const next = previous.then(attempt, attempt) is :273: for a newly enqueued operation attempt is not reached until previous settles, so the returned promise cannot settle first either, and tail at :274-278 keeps the same chain as the lock. ApplyPatchTool.ts awaits checkpointSave at :196 (whole-patch success), :206 (partial failure) and :220 (outer catch), and the queued-message handoff sits in the finally at :231-233, so a baseline that never settles holds the handoff behind it exactly as you describe. checkpoint.test.ts blob 570eb8e71e7d carries :143 expired-drop, :186 cancel-drop, :222 run-once-after-a-stalled-predecessor-settles and :261 restore-never-dropped; none of them awaits the queued result while the predecessor is still unsettled, so bounded-wait is both untested and, at this blob, unimplemented. I did not run those tests either, so the claim here is about the code and the test titles, not about a green suite.
Disposition: accepted, shape named, not implemented in this round. The bound belongs inside enqueueCheckpointWork so the lock keeps its meaning: return a promise that races next against the operation's own deadline and resolves undefined — the shape callers already tolerate at index.ts:287-289 (missing service) and at Task.ts:3956 (no commit means retry on a later loop entry) — while tail continues to chain the real operation so no later save or restore can overlap it; the test is the pair you describe: handoff observed while the baseline is unsettled, then late settlement asserted not to start the expired save. No line cost is claimed, for the recorded reason that the gate cannot run on this machine. This pull request's next push belongs to the lane holding its head, so the row is dispositioned rather than quietly dropped.

Premise holds and the gap is verifiable by search, not argument. The whole move state is local: destinationCommitted, destinationBackup, backupPath, stagingPath (:555-:562). The only thing that outlives the process is the file itself under .moveBase.pid.timestamp.backup (:559). git grep at fc11d6d finds zoo-recovery exactly once - the write site at :643 - and .backup exactly twice, the constructor at :559 and one spec assertion (applyPatchTool.execute.spec.ts:272). Nothing scans for either name at startup, so an exit between :573 and :575 leaves the destination missing with its content under a dot-file name and no reader.
Agreed this needs a persisted move record recovered before the task resumes. Heavy lift and cross-cutting (it wants the same startup sweep the checkpoint-journal work discusses on #1406), so reporting rather than fixing here; thread left open.

@easonLiangWorldedtech Agreed. If the host exits between the two renames, the destination can remain missing while its previous content stays in the hidden backup. I’ll leave this thread open.

Answering with the measured state, deliberately not resolved.
Your crash window is real in this tree: the move commits the destination by renaming it to the backup name (src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts:560-575) and then renames staging onto the destination (:576-590). A host exit between those two renames leaves the destination missing with its previous bytes in a hidden .backup, and nothing in the tree - no recovery scan, no startup sweep - ever looks for those names again; grep for .backup in src finds only this move path and atomicWrite's staging names. A checkpoint restores the shadow-git view, not the missing workspace file, so it does not close the window either.
Crash recovery of interrupted writes is a separate deliverable from this unit and its home is the file-write-safety chain: the follow-up issue you offered (linked to #1406) is the right place, and the sweep-and-reconcile design should cover both .staging and .backup rather than this PR's move block alone. I am not the account that owns opening follow-ups on this chain, so the answer to your offer is yes, and I am handing the filing to the merge owner rather than opening it under the wrong owner.

Answered at e406c09 - deferred, and naming where it goes.
A host exit between the backup rename and the final rename does leave a .backup next to a destination that is still the pre-move content, and today nothing scans for it. The recovery you describe is not a property of this call site: deciding what a leftover staging or backup artifact means requires the same rules the guarded writer in unit 2 of the split proposed on PR 1408 (refs/tmp/s3-1408-u2-guardedwrite) defines for its own compare-and-swap publish, and a scan that runs at activation touches a lifecycle path this unit does not own. Doing a partial version here - a scan invented at a call site, with no owner for its semantics - is how the two-rollback-stories bug arrives.
No counted-line cost is claimed for this row because nothing was implemented for it. The row stays open on my side until the writer unit exists to carry it; if the split plan on PR 1408 is rejected I will re-raise this as work in this file rather than let it disappear.

@easonLiangWorldedtech Understood. Recovery is deferred to the proposed guarded-writer work in #1408, and the thread remains open. The follow-up linked to #1406 is for the merge owner to file.
One correction: after the backup rename, the destination can be missing; its pre-move content remains in the .backup file.
The check results you reported apply to e406c0951f; I have not verified them for the current head. Before merging, verify the current required checks and the separate security and persistence failures in the last saved pre-merge gate. Their status on the current revision is unverified.

Answered at e406c0951f0b467f9fb6b7a7083b06df451d0b9b (live head when this reply was posted) — blobs read at that commit: src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts 0b0ea7dbf68527ed1b21fb5b3741cb5ed718b91e, src/integrations/editor/atomicWrite.ts 6bef23ec4f01624e3c89fca330ec955c29e96100.
Correction accepted as written: after the backup rename at ApplyPatchTool.ts:595 the destination can be missing, with its pre-move bytes sitting under the .backup name formed at :581 until the final rename at :597 lands. That window belongs to the rename pair, not to the error handling around it, so no amount of catch-arm work at this call site closes it.
Nothing scans for the leftover at this head, measured rather than asserted: git grep -n -E '\.backup|\.staging' over src/**/*.ts with test paths excluded returns 10 rows at this commit — the two paths' own creation and cleanup (:580-581 here, atomicWrite.ts:33 there), the unrelated managed-binary staging in src/services/managed-binary/install.ts:96-115, and src/utils/jsonFileRecovery.ts:184, which is the project's existing recovery-scan idiom for a different artifact class (JSON settings backups) and is not consulted by either of these paths.
Disposition: deferred to PR 1408 unit 2 alongside the symlink row, for the reason already given there — deciding what a leftover means requires the guarded writer's rules, and a scan invented at this call site would put a second rollback story over the same failure. The row stays open on my side rather than being resolved on a link.
Advisory-only, and I am calling it advisory: among the 21 check names at this head the only failure is extension-host-visual #129045296541 completed/failure, which is not one of the six contexts in ruleset 15494382 (Protect Main), so it does not block the merge; the six required are check-translations 129045298792 completed/success, compile 129045298858 completed/success, e2e-mock 129045297824 completed/success, knip 129045298540 completed/success, platform-unit-test (ubuntu-latest) 129045298822 completed/success, platform-unit-test (windows-latest) 129045299335 completed/success. I read these from the API at Mon, 09 Nov 2026 17:01:39 GMT (GitHub's Date header) and ran nothing locally; the walkthrough you cite is comment 5438843880, last rendered 2026-11-09T08:46:42Z, and CodeRabbit's check-run at this head is #129045315496 completed/skipped, so a fresh assessment is the next automation pass rather than a commit I can add.

@easonLiangWorldedtech Understood. Recovery is deferred to the proposed guarded-writer work in #1408. The finding remains open, and filing the follow-up is assigned to the merge owner.
Your reported check results apply to e406c0951f at the stated time. I have not independently verified them. The last saved pre-merge assessment also reports separate security and persistence blockers. Before merge, those findings need a fresh assessment for the current revision.
Two measurements about this PR that a maintainer may want, both read rather than inferred, and one ask.
1. The re-review I requested on this PR is now measured end to end, and it did not clear the verdict: it replaced it with new work. Head fc11d6d64 has not moved since its 2026-11-03 merge of upstream, and at the moment I requested the review (comment 6714177694, 2026-11-07T22:59:39Z) this PR had 24 review threads with 0 live rows — every drawn row was already resolved or marked outdated. Timeline of what the request bought: scan started 23:00:31Z (check-run 128555939502, 92 seconds after the comment, no new commit), review 5815515164 landed 23:16:24Z as CHANGES_REQUESTED with a 33,922-character body and ten new threads created at 23:16:21-22Z (checkpoints/index.ts:236; task/__tests__/Task.spec.ts:7107; task/Task.ts:3898; applyPatchTool.execute.spec.ts:327 and :365; ApplyPatchTool.ts:324/:575/:599/:645; webview-ui/src/i18n/locales/en/settings.json:774). Read at 23:16:49Z: 34 threads, 10 live rows, decision still CHANGES_REQUESTED.
A second, independent sample behaves identically: on #1406 a request at 22:54:51Z produced a 44,531-character CHANGES_REQUESTED at 23:10:05Z with ten new threads, taking that PR from 1 live row to 11 on a head that also had not moved — including a fresh thread on en/settings.json:774, a line whose row had already been answered there with a reasoned decline 40 minutes earlier. So on this repo's current configuration, answering every row does not converge: the next scan re-samples the same diff and re-draws. We are working these ten rows on their merits, but we are not going to keep requesting reviews, because the evidence says a request costs ~16 minutes of bot time and ten more rows rather than clearing anything.
2. The one red job on this PR is the cross-branch visual failure, read rather than assumed.extension-host-visual job 126015510722 at this head: 480,883-byte log, failures on expect(locator).toHaveScreenshot(expected) with Locator: locator('.part.sidebar'), Snapshot: electron-chat-dark-sidebar.png as the only distinct snapshot name (6 occurrences), tally 3 failed. The same assertion shape appears on three other branches inside the workflow's last 200 completed runs (2026-11-05→2026-11-07): #1406 at e12e961c6 (job 128547911683), feat/prompt-history-picker at 1581e06f9 and b8e6593fb, feat/session-title at 9ca3fc553. The sibling webview-visual leg has its own recurring contrast failure whose numbers drift run to run — 2.34:1 with foreground alpha 0.494 (job 128541029983) versus 2.36:1 with alpha 0.498 (job 128554520953) on the same assertion at WelcomeViewProvider.visual.tsx:8:2 — which is what sampling mid-transition looks like. We are not calling either a flake as a fact; we are quoting assertion text and job ids, and both legs sit in the admin re-run ask. Neither leg is a required check: Protect Main reports required_status_checks: none, and what blocks this merge is the review decision.
3. The ask, unchanged and specific. (a) Dismiss or replace the standing bodyless CHANGES_REQUESTED reviews from the one account that holds most of this account's open PRs — they are not tied to live rows, and a fork-side account cannot dismiss another account's review. (b) Tell us what clears the bot's verdict, because as measured above a re-review is not it. (c) Admin re-runs for the visual legs whose failures reproduce across branches, with the job ids above. (d) A decision on the mutation gate for the PRs whose changed-executable-line count exceeds the 500-line cap (the gate throws in buildManifest and prints no per-package breakdown, so nothing about mutant survival is being reported for them).
Follow-up from the same campaign, three facts that changed what we are asking for.
We had the merge rules wrong and now we have it from the API. "/branches/main/protection" 404s for this repository because it is governed by rulesets, and we read the missing endpoint as "none". Ruleset 15494382 declares six required contexts — "check-translations", "platform-unit-test (ubuntu-latest)", "platform-unit-test (windows-latest)", "compile", "knip", "e2e-mock" ("strict_required_status_checks_policy: false") — which means "mutation-diff", CodeRabbit, "webview-visual", "extension-host-visual", "knip:production" and "codecov" are advisory to the merge, and that across all 59 of our open PRs only three required-context reds exist (one already fixed by the "knip.json" change on feat(tools): guarded write CAS core with per-path FIFO chain (S4a, #1375) #1405, one unit-test expectation on fix(webview): invalidate live sibling view state on reset and settings import (vps2 F4) #1562 we are fixing, one nondeterministic Windows failure on feat(file-safety): guarded text publish module + specs (A4, #1375) #1395). So we are not asking you to make advisory legs green; we are asking about the review verdict and about one cap decision.
A requirement neither side can satisfy from the fork. The pull-request rule sets "require_extra_approval_for_unattributed_changes: true". Measured item-level across our 59 PRs: 867 of 3,867 commits are unattributed, concentrated in one author email ("eason.liang"worldedtech.com", 802 commits, not associated with any GitHub account) plus 65 agent commits with placeholder identities ("lead"local", "dsh"local"). Every PR head is attributed; the trigger rides on the commit list. The account owner is adding that address to the account now, which attributes 802 of them retroactively — until that lands, an approving review alone may not be sufficient on 51 of these PRs, and we would rather tell you that than have a merge fail on a rule nobody mentioned.
Nobody here can re-run a leg. "POST /actions/runs/42419427476/rerun-failed-jobs" (feat(file-safety): guarded text publish module + specs (A4, #1375) #1395's required Windows job 128544438996) → 403 "Must have admin rights to Repository.". So the nondeterministic failures we quote — the three ENOENT assertion failures in @src/core/task-persistence/tests/TaskHistoryStore.deleteSemantics.spec.ts@ on the Windows leg of feat(file-safety): guarded text publish module + specs (A4, #1375) #1395 (job 128544438996), which are not timeouts, the visual snapshot drift between "2.34:1" and "2.36:1" at "WelcomeViewProvider.visual.tsx:8:2" — are not something we can disprove ourselves: the job ids are in this thread precisely so an admin re-run can settle them, and a push is the only re-trigger available to us. If a re-run turns one green, please say so on the PR: that is the evidence we cannot generate.
What we are doing while you decide: answering review rows with measurements (38 replies on #1921, a 21-row batch on #1562, ten classified rows on #1406 with six fixes landing and four design decisions deferred to their own units), re-running every touched package's own test suite before a push, and reading the mutation gate as the number it is rather than as a test result — all 22 mutation-diff reds across the series print only "extension has N changed executable lines (limit 500)" with no manifest line and no mutant, from 505 to 2297, and four of them (#1913 505, #2226 522, #1912 538, #2237 587) are close enough to trim if the answer is "trim, do not split". #1562's comment 6714534920 carries that table and the finding that the "narrow exclusion" the gate offers is not implemented anywhere in "scripts/stryker-diff.mjs", so granting it means a maintainer commit rather than a review action.
Precision I owed you on that #1395 Windows item, now measured: the log shows @3 failed | 4231 passed | 9 skipped (4243)@ in @vitest run --config vitest.core.config.ts@ with @error: ENOENT@ at @deleteSemantics.spec.ts:145:22@ and a @promise rejected ... instead of resolving@ at @:255:68@ — the spec mocks @fs.unlink@ to throw @eacces@ for a chosen target and then asserts that file still exists, and on the runner it is gone. The spec is byte-identical to main tip (@git diff --name-only 73931fe1f8ae7f@ on that path is empty), was introduced by @edelauna@ in @632ef53b8@ (#1726) and last touched by upstream @bb6cbee59@ (#2297); #1395's delta is 11 files in @src/services/file-safety/@ and @src/utils/fileLock.ts@ and does not touch @TaskHistoryStore.ts@. We re-ran CI's exact command on a Windows box four ways — spec alone at the head and at main tip, and the whole @core@ project (196 files / 4,243 tests) under both Node 25.9.0 and the repo's pinned Node 22.23.4 — and it is green every way (59–77 s here vs 136.83 s on the runner). So the ask is a re-run or an admin's judgement, not a promise of a fix from us.
…doff-count vacuity, make the move recovery write owner-only
Three review rows on fc11d6d measured true and are addressed here:
1. applyPatchTool.execute.spec - unlink is one shared double and mockRejectedValueOnce orders by
call, not by path, arming the rejection on the FIRST delete while the case comment claimed the
second. Armed after a resolved call now, and the case asserts both paths were attempted and that
exactly two unlinks happened - a first-delete failure stops the loop before the second path.
2. Same file - a handoff that never happened used to be the strongest pass: `invocationCallOrder[0] ??
Infinity` makes any checkpoint order beat an absent handoff. The call count is asserted before the
order in both cases (a comparison against Infinity cannot fail when the call never happens).
3. ApplyPatchTool.ts recovery write now uses { encoding: "utf8", mode: 0o600, flag: "wx" } to match
the staging write in the same function: a recovery copy holds private content, and truncating
whatever already stands at that name would destroy a file instead of preserving it.
4. ClineProvider.spec gained a handler-side round trip for perWriteCheckpoints (updateSettings through
the message handler, then globalState.update and getState). Every other per-write assertion in
that file drives contextProxy directly, so a handler that dropped the key left them all green.
Control (pinned node v22.23.4, .tmp-node22): with the parent impl blob 14ad81b on disk - parent
blob verified by git hash-object - a mode/flag assertion on the recovery write fails; with 0827272
it passes. The recovery branch itself still has no test: driving it needs the staging rename, a
failing source unlink and a failing destination removal through doubles that are shared and not reset
between cases, and two attempts to arm that combination through the execute harness did not reach the
branch (logs 1404-recovery-*-node22.log). git grep shows zoo-recovery appears once in the tree - the
write site - so no existing assertion covered it before and none was altered. The behavioural change
therefore lands with the row left answered-and-open pending a test.
Gates: applyPatchTool.execute.spec 31/31 and ClineProvider.spec 322/322 on pinned v22.23.4;
vitest.core.config.ts and vitest.misc.config.ts green (core 4158 passed / 9 skipped, misc 2014 passed
/ 15 skipped) on the same pinned runtime; tsc --noEmit and knip clean on box node v25.9.0; eslint
--prune-suppressions --max-warnings=0 clean on all three touched files with .eslintcache cleared after
the last prettier write; src/eslint-suppressions.json byte-identical to the parent 32555c4; the
new handler test uses no cast because that file sits at its suppressed no-explicit-any budget of 195.
No locale file touched: check-translations compares keys across locales and all 18 settings.json files
already carry perWriteCheckpoints, so the wording clarification is a translator-visible change left
answered-and-open rather than 17 machine-translated strings pushed on a maintainer's behalf.

Add or strengthen a focused test that fails under the mutation. If the mutant is equivalent, request maintainer approval for the narrowest mutator-specific exclusion and explain why it cannot change behavior:
// Stryker disable next-line ConditionalExpression: normalized input cannot reach the alternate branch
const result = condition ? value : fallback
Broad all exclusions and exclusions without a concrete reason are reported as advisories.

…e the tools
CodeRabbit round against 7f9ebb4 on Zoo-Code-Org#1404:
- checkpointRestore now runs through the same per-task queue the saves use, so a
queued save can never stage + commit while a restore is resetting the
workspace, and a restore asked for during a save waits for it (thread 7pkO).
- handleAddFile records the mutation at the write boundary and untracks it only
when the save left no file behind, so an add whose save rejects after its bytes
landed still gets the partial-state checkpoint before the queued-message
handoff (thread 7pkV).
- The move write-catch reports where the destination's bytes survived when the
restore rename fails as well, and treats the missing destination as a workspace
mutation (thread 7pkb).
- The perWrite description names write_to_file, edit_file and apply_patch and
says that saving from the editor records no checkpoint, in all 18 locales
(thread 7pkh).
Rows: 1 in checkpoint.test.ts, 2 in applyPatchTool.execute.spec.ts, 19 in
CheckpointSettings.spec.tsx; each one fails against 7f9ebb4 on its own.
…heckpoint rows
CI's compile and core-unit arms build the PR merge tree, not the branch head: the job
checks out refs/remotes/pull/1404/merge, and 1404's base is Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code main,
which absorbed 5319fe9 (Zoo-Code-Org#2283) - the commit that turns Task.abort into a get-only
accessor fed by the run-state latches (at main tip e487cd7: Task.ts:3582
'get abort(): boolean', Task.ts:3586 'get abortReason()', no setter anywhere). My head
still carries the plain field at Task.ts:392, so the same rows typecheck clean in my
worktree and fail in that tree:
core/task/__tests__/Task.spec.ts(7279,9): error TS2540: Cannot assign to 'abort' because it is a read-only property.
core/task/__tests__/Task.spec.ts(7305,9): error TS2540: Cannot assign to 'abort' because it is a read-only property.
core/task/__tests__/Task.spec.ts(8387,8): error TS2540: Cannot assign to 'abort' because it is a read-only property.
core/task/__tests__/Task.spec.ts(8391,9): error TS2540: Cannot assign to 'abort' because it is a read-only property.
Reproduced with git merge-tree --write-tree 8415547e487cd7 (clean, tree
c77e366), commit-tree d4e3ed011, and a worktree of that commit whose node_modules
junctions map @roo-code/* to that tree's own packages: tsc --noEmit there printed
exactly those four lines and nothing else.
The three rows are this unit's own (the two baseline rows and the queued-message row),
so the adaptation is on my side, in the shape 1405 took at 94dc7c4: ask the class to
raise its own latch instead of writing the field. task.requestAbort(false) is public on
both spellings - it writes the field and drives the run-state event here (Task.ts:3539),
and it drives the kernel that main's getter reads (Task.ts:3594 there). It is also the
smallest exposed entry point that fits: abortTask() disposes the task, and the
queued-message row would then read an empty queue instead of the message the
cancellation is supposed to leave for the resume flow. The assertions are unchanged.
Measured: tsc --noEmit in the merge tree 0 errors (was 4); tsc at this head 0; the core
lane in the merge tree 198 files, 4309 passed | 9 skipped (4318); Task.spec.ts under
vitest.core.config.ts 222 passed in the merge tree and 212 at this head; affected src
set 141 passed | 7 skipped; affected webview set 563 passed; eslint --max-warnings=0
clean on the changed files with suppressions unchanged; prettier --check clean.
Brings 1404 up to the content the required arms actually check out: the 20 non-merge main
commits between its merge base 3ee042d and main tip e487cd7, including Zoo-Code-Org#2283 (task
abort/abortReason run-state latches, which turn Task.abort and Task.abortReason into getter-only
accessors), the settings round-trip unit e943530, Zoo-Code-Org#2343, Zoo-Code-Org#2324, Zoo-Code-Org#2327 and Zoo-Code-Org#2277. 29 of this
branch's 43 delta files were also edited on main and every one of them auto-merged.
Nothing had to be reconciled, and that was measured rather than assumed: tsc --noEmit over the
merged tree exits 0 with zero error rows once @roo-code/types resolves to the merged packages/types
(it reported 25 perWriteCheckpoints rows while resolving to a sibling checkout's stale types, which
is a resolution artifact, not a defect in this tree). The accessor hazard that class of merge usually
produces is absent here: this branch's Task.ts never assigns this.abort or this.abortReason (its three
mentions are comparisons), and the five spec-side writes all land on object-literal doubles that
declare abort as a mutable property or on a local { abort: boolean } alias. Control: injecting
'this.abort = true' inside the getter body produces exactly one row, TS2540 Cannot assign to 'abort'
because it is a read-only property, and removing it returns the program to exit 0, so the check would
have caught the hazard if the merge had created it.
…elf-move deleting its own file
The unit is at 295 of the gate's 500 counted executable lines, so these are implemented here rather than
deferred: this reconciliation adds 30 counted lines (src/core/checkpoints/index.ts +27,
src/core/tools/ApplyPatchTool.ts +3), measured with scripts/stryker-diff.mjs's own functions against
48be786 before the commit, for 325 of 500 afterwards. The five new test rows are free budget because the
counter excludes __tests__ paths.
Checkpoint queue (threads 7pkQ on Task.ts and 7p-r on checkpoints/index.ts). The per-task queue serialized
checkpoint work but never expired it: after a baseline whose git add/commit outlives checkpointTimeout, the
caller was released by the Promise.race in initiateTaskLoop while the queued saves still started, however
late, committing whatever the workspace had become by then, and a save queued by a task that had already been
canceled still performed checkpoint work. The queue now gates the start of each save: one past its
checkpoint window, or requested by a canceled task, is dropped instead of started late and resolves to the
caller exactly as a missing service does - with no commit - which is how the task-start baseline already
treats a save that produced no commit, by retrying it on a later loop entry. Restores keep no expiry:
dropping a queued restore would silently discard an explicit user action. Four rows in
src/core/checkpoints/__tests__/checkpoint.test.ts cover the expired drop, the canceled drop, a fresh save
running normally after the stall settles (the drop does not poison the queue) and a restore that is never
dropped; one row in Task.spec.ts covers the case the reviewer asked about - a save that commits after the
task already gave up on it does not retire the baseline.
Self-move (thread 7p-w on ApplyPatchTool.ts). A patch whose Move to resolves onto its own Update File path
is a rewrite of that path, not a relocation: the staged content is renamed onto it and the trailing source
unlink then deletes the file that was just committed. The unlink is skipped when the two resolved paths match.
A row in applyPatchTool.execute.spec.ts asserts the rename happened and no unlink happened.
Nothing else from the review's open rows is implemented here: preserving a symlink destination instead of
replacing it (7pkY), the recovery artifact for a host exit between the two renames (7p-u), and the resolved-
target workspace and protection checks belong to the single guarded writer in unit 2 of the split proposed on
PR 1408 (refs/tmp/s3-1408-u2-guardedwrite), where the compare-and-swap write, its rollback and its lock live.
Implementing symlink semantics twice, once in this move path and once in that writer, would give the workspace
two rollback stories.

Visual regression note (2026-08-30): The advisory
extension-host-visualcheck (chat-dark sidebar snapshot) fails on this branch with a deterministic 973-pixel delta localized to the completion-result area. Root cause: the B1 task-start baseline checkpoint (per-write checkpoints default on,allowEmpty) adds a suppressedcheckpoint_savedrow to the message history, whichgetCompletionCheckpoint()picks up, soSeeNewChangesButtonsrender below the completion row; the suite baseline (recorded pre-FWS in #1426) has no such buttons. Every other pixel is identical, and the delta is pixel-identical across all branches containing B1 (1404/1406/1410/1411/1412/1413), while non-B1 branches are green. This is a new-expected-behavior vs stale-baseline mismatch rather than a rendering regression. Flagged for maintainers: either update theelectron-chat-dark-sidebar.pngbaseline on the B1 branch or adjust the scene/component behavior. Advisory check only — it does not block the required gates.c07bea302- review follow-up: task-start baseline is now skipped on history resumes -initiateTaskLoopgates the baseline on_isHistoryTaskso a resumed task no longer records a second baseline (design: exactly once per task; the resumed shadow repo already carries the original baseline). Regression test added; negative control verified (reverting the guard reddens the new test). Ported to the sibling units (PR 1406ba5908ba2, PR 1411c3bef96f7, PR 14108386e3739, PR 1412d125039af).93e3640e4- review follow-up (ported from PR 1410): baseline skipped on already-aborted tasks (regression test added; Task.spec 178/178), andWriteToFileTool/EditFileToolnow readperWriteCheckpointsthrough the sharedDEFAULT_PER_WRITE_CHECKPOINTSconstant. tsc clean, eslint clean, Prettier clean.faf3f9d33- review follow-up (ported from PR 1410): the baseline block rechecksthis.abortafter thegetState()lookup, so cancellation during the deferred state lookup skips the baseline save; regression test added (Task.spec 179/179, negative control verified). tsc clean, eslint clean, Prettier clean.fb576709d- review follow-up (Persistence Integrity row - fixed in code, not argued):EditFileToolandApplyPatchToolfiredcheckpointSavewithout awaiting it, so the diff-state reset and the queued-work handoff could race an unfinished checkpoint commit (and shutdown could lose it). Both now await the save, matchingWriteToFileTooland the semantics the later units of this series settled on. Held-promise regression tests pin the ordering on both paths (negative controls verified: reverting to fire-and-forget reddens both). Tool specs 92 passed / 5 skipped, tsc clean, eslint clean, Prettier clean.cae09fbd5- review follow-up (Regression Evidence row): added the requested multi-fileapply_patchtest asserting exactly onecheckpointSavefor the complete patch (B1's one-checkpoint-per-patch contract). The row's SettingsView half is owned by the unit that ships the control (see PR 1411's dispositions); the base unit's provider/round-trip tests already cover the setting here. Ported context: the same await fix landed on PR 1406 (4c0bc15bc), the only other unit still carrying the unawaitedEditFileToolcall.c6a23c511- review follow-up (queued-message handoff, raised on PR 1404): the per-file handlers processed queued messages beforeexecuteawaited the whole-patch checkpoint, so a queued turn (and its own checkpointed writes) could start mid-commit. The handoff is now deferred to after the checkpoint attempt - one handoff per successful patch, independent of the checkpoint setting or outcome - matching the deferral the journal-carrying unit already shipped. Tests: held-promise deferral (negative control verified), handoff with checkpoints disabled, no handoff on failure. Tool specs green, tsc/eslint/Prettier clean.484d5cf0e- review follow-up (Lifecycle Resource Cleanup row):processQueuedMessagesdequeued unconditionally, and since tools now await the checkpoint before handing off, a cancellation landing during that await consumed the queued message and dropped it (submitUserMessagerejects onceabortis set). The dequeue is now skipped while the task is aborted - guarding every handoff site at the lowest layer - with a regression test (negative control verified: the unconditional dequeue reddens it). Task spec 180 passed.484d5cf0e- review follow-up (Regression Evidence row, settings half):SettingsViewsave round-trip tests assert the durable payload - default-onperWriteCheckpoints: truewhen the setting is unset, and an explicitperWriteCheckpoints: falseafter unchecking and clicking Save (webview-ui per AGENTS.md is the layer for React forms/save wiring; the toggle binding itself was already covered byCheckpointSettings.spec). Webview settings specs 34 passed, webview tsc clean.Review dispositions (registered once)
Lifecycle Resource Cleanup (task-start baseline cancellation row): by design, bounded.
initiateTaskLoopalready checksabortbefore the baseline and rechecks after the state lookup, so a canceled task performs no new checkpoint work; the only remaining window is a cancellation landing while the single awaited baseline commit is in flight, which costs at most one bounded shadow-git commit that dispose then reaps. Threading anAbortSignalthroughgetCheckpointService/checkpointSave(the suggested fix) is a checkpoint-service-wide redesign beyond this unit's fidelity contract - the same posture as the registered journal-batch decision on the journal unit.Functional Correctness (partial-failure handoff thread): argued - see the thread reply. Requiring full-patch success would strand queued input on any partial failure, changing upstream behavior (handlers handed off after each successful write); the deferral keeps the upstream condition (a write happened) and moves only the timing after the checkpoint attempt. Pinned by two tests at 0310c99.
Persistence Integrity (move/checkpoint row, PR 1404 walkthrough): superseded and fixed at
a0d292efe. The earlier by-design disposition (checkpoint the half-finished move) no longer reflects the shipped behavior: when the sourceunlinkfails after the destination write, the handler now restores the pre-move state (removes the destination withfs.rm(..., { force: true }), reports the failure throughtask.say+ a tool error, resets the diff view, and returns failure), so the checkpoint never records a half-finished move and the operation fails explicitly. Pinned by the test "restores the pre-move state and fails the operation when source deletion fails"; negative control: removing the restore made exactly that test red.Regression Evidence (Playwright fixture half): by placement. AGENTS.md routes React rendering/forms/save wiring to
webview-uitests, which cover the control (CheckpointSettings.spec) and the save payload (SettingsView.spec, added at 484d5cf);apps/vscode-e2eis reserved for real-host behavior, and the settings toggle has no extension-host-specific behavior to snapshot. The webview-visual CI job already pixel-covers the settings surface.0310c997e- review follow-up (partial-failure handoff thread): argued, not changed - upstream handed off in each handler after every successful write, so partial failures and access-check early returns drained the queue; the deferral keeps that condition and moves only the timing. Two fidelity tests pin it (partial failure still hands off; access-check early return still hands off). Execute specs 31 passed.a83a105ff- Stryker-directive sweep: removed the seven// Stryker disable next-linecomments carried in Task.ts's streaming/telemetry region (per the updated AGENTS.md: directives are removed when their file is touched; comment-only, no behavior delta). Equivalence notes for any mutants that now survive there (mutation-diff is advisory):event.nameis always a string on those paths;streamingKeycan never be undefined there; thegetStreamingKeyfallback region is unreachable defensive code. eslint/tsc/Prettier clean, Task spec 180 passed.Test-only commit: the early-return handoff test now asserts both that no whole-patch checkpoint is saved and that the handoff occurs exactly once, per the review thread (negative control: duplicating the finally-block handoff reddens exactly that test). eslint/tsc/Prettier clean.
Refreshed onto upstream/main (tool-call state scoping): ToolCallbacks gained a required toolCallId; the execute spec's callback fixtures pass it (test-tool-call-id, matching main's own spec convention). No production-code change. Full-src eslint 0, tsc 0, execute spec 25 passed, Task spec 191 passed.
Test-only commit: the in-place update test previously asserted nothing; it now asserts no error handling ran and exactly one whole-patch checkpoint with the standard arguments (negative control: skipping the default-on save reddens it). eslint/tsc/Prettier clean, spec 25 passed.
Persistence Integrity walkthrough row - evidence-grade refutation
The flagged move handling is unchanged upstream code, not a regression introduced here:
fs.unlink(source)/ return-success sequence (ApplyPatchTool.ts lines 480-484) is attributed bygit blameto upstream commit0db51d8bf(2026-03-03); this PR's diff against upstream/main contains no hunk touching the unlink region.src/core/task/Task.ts:2400void this.checkpointSave(false, true)), so a locked source already produces a checkpoint containing both source and destination before this PR.Making moves transactional (destination removal, source restore, whole-patch rollback, delayed handoff) changes upstream move semantics repo-wide and is out of scope for the checkpoint-granularity unit; registered as a follow-up candidate for maintainers.
Persistence Integrity row (04:13 walkthrough) - implemented as demanded
destination write is removed (pre-move state restored; a failed
restore is logged), the failure is reported through the tool error
result, and the whole-patch checkpoint is no longer recorded over a
duplicated file.
operations retain their writes, the failed operation reports itself,
and before the queued-message handoff an explicit partial-state
checkpoint persists the retained writes (the access-check failure
path routes through the same branch). The whole-patch checkpoint is
still recorded only after every filesystem operation succeeded.
red; disabling the partial-state branch made exactly the three tests
asserting it red; both restored byte-exact.

CodeRabbit inline thread (Minor, quick win): when a later file operation rejects outright after earlier handlers succeeded, the outer
catchskipped both checkpoint branches while thefinallyblock still handed off queued messages — the queued turn could start with the retained writes carried forward without rollback metadata.Fix (this push): the
catchnow persists an explicit partial-state checkpoint beforehandleErrorand the handoff whenhandoffPendingis true, with the same default-on semantics as the success/partial branches (skip only whenperWriteCheckpointsis explicitly false; save failures stay suppressed so the original error still reports). Test:persists a partial-state checkpoint when a later handler rejects outright after an earlier write. Negative control: removing the catch-block checkpoint turns exactly that test red (1 red, the new behavior).Review follow-ups (row 10)
The CR wave on the previous head is fixed in
a0d292efe:[Task] task-start checkpoint baseline failed:and task startup continues; the baseline is best-effort and runs beforeTaskStarted, so it must not abort the loop (startTaskrethrows non-abort errors).

Row-17 disposition (STALE row - pre-fix hunks re-anchored, no code change)
The Persistence Integrity walkthrough row at 03:05Z describes the move path as it existed BEFORE the destination-preservation fix landed on this branch; the fix is present at the reviewed head 911ae24:
ApplyPatchTool.ts:491-510captures the destination content before either supported write path and REFUSES the move before writing when the destination exists but cannot be inspected (non-ENOENT read error).fs.rm(moveAbsolutePath, { force: true })... which deletes the prior destination contents" - false at this head: the unlink-failure rollback (:528-545) restores the captured destination content viafs.writeFileand callsfs.rmonly when the destination was confirmed ABSENT before the write (destinationBackup === undefined), so prior destination data is never deleted by the rollback.applyPatchTool.execute.spec.ts"restores the pre-move state and fails the operation when source deletion fails" (:150), "restores an existing destination when source deletion fails after the move clobbered it" (:194 - the exact clobber case the row claims is unhandled), "refuses the move before writing when the destination cannot be inspected" (:236). The row's cited :149-180 is the absent-destination test; the clobber-restore test at :194 is not acknowledged.Verdict: STALE (CR re-anchored pre-fix hunks). No code change; registration recorded here.
