Nested tool calls: ToolExecutionApi.executeTool() runs another tool as its own pi.tool task owned by the caller,
keyed for replay-safe reattachment. Results for programs live in the caller's NestedResultDoc until it settles;
pi.live.nestedTools shows each call with the arguments it runs with and a summary. TaskOptions.abandonOnRestart
aborts work its creator awaited only in memory before it runs again after a restart.
Structured output: structuredOutputSchema and structuredOutput, validated; a tool without a schema gives programs its
bounded output (one text as a string, one image as itself, else the list). ToolExecutionResult.content is now output.
callers and modelTools decide who may call a tool.
Storage errors: any error a Storage method throws fails the Session, which closes itself; later calls and waits reject
with SessionFailed, watches end with session_failed, and Session.closed settles. Nothing retries in the Harness.
StorageRejected is removed; StorageRequestError marks invalid reads that fail only their call. Listener and onReport
errors are contained and reported.
Also updates scripts/issues/triage.ts and the vacation experiment for the content -> output rename.
Package 22: runtime.now() and report() throw after the invocation ended; a
migration-only commit is published; a failed Harness.open closes without the
caller's context and rethrows the open error; ConversationWatch alias. Tests
for close joining non-cooperative code, cancelled close, queued operations at
the seal, progress calls and viewers on a paused Harness, the Chord guide, and
the spec's usage examples.
Package 23: Harness.taskGraph() and watchTaskGraph() mount every live task with
its owner edge, committed status, flags, and owned conversations, advanced from
commit publications. Example 24 prints the checkout's tree.
- Registry of named extensions (tools, sections, hooks, wraps, tasks) with install/uninstall;
defineExtension, defineTool, section, hook, wrapTool, wrapSection
- pi.agent document (model, thinking level, extensions, tools filter, instructions, cwd),
configure(), Conversation.agent()/configure(), agent option on root/createConversation/fork,
task-owned conversations copy their owner's agent
- Harness-wide HarnessSettings read at every use; env function built per use
- Hooks and the agent resolved per task phase; tool calls resolved with the tools filter applied
- ToolRegistration<TParameters, TDetails> types execute() args from parameters
- HarnessOptions.conversationCreated; Tx.submissionByRequest() and Tx.createSubmission()
- FileSystem.id; edit/write serialize per file system id and canonical path
- CodingTools extension (read, write, edit, bash)
- Examples 06-31 on the new API, README and CHANGELOG
Manual compact(), background and blocking threshold compaction, and overflow
compaction with one retry. Summaries are headed pi.compaction entries placed
through the inbox, or appended by a compaction the generation waits on; the
stale rule decides between concurrent summaries.
The subagent tool no longer offers wait, is not rerun after a crash (a repeated stop could stop newer work), reports each answer once even when several messages end in it, checks registry names as own properties, and its scenes cannot hang polling.
Tasks name their owner (conversation or task); a task waits on other tasks with a waiting state (failFast or allSettled) and runtime.outcomes(); a task that finishes while owned work is live holds completing until it drains; abort handlers run bottom-up; only live owners cascade. The generation owns its tool tasks and waits for them in a tools phase, replacing pi.post-tools and after. Adds Conversation.abort({ background: true }), example 24 (checkout with payments), and reworks example 23 into persistent subagents.
Generation offers active registered tools through positional system entries and
hands a tool-calling answer to parallel or sequential pi.tool tasks and a
pi.post-tools task that applies addTools/terminate and continues the run. Tool
tasks validate, run beforeTool/afterTool, record intent with the replay policy,
publish bounded, sanitized, adaptively throttled progress in pi.live.tools, and
write results with a rendered diagnostics block. Hook dispatch with conversation
and subtree scopes, prepareArguments, HarnessOptions.env, and read/bash/edit/write
tools in pi-durable/tools. The env shell now streams raw output and spills past
thresholds; its bounded capture and publisher are removed.
Durable generation imports retry helpers from pi-ai/utils/retry; examples use
pi-ai/models and pi-ai/providers/faux. Entry graph budgets and an import
footprint test guard the models entry.
Submissions with request-ID deduplication and handles, the pi.live run
control and presentation document, the built-in pi.generation task
(system prompt preparation, streamed durable partials, retries, deferred
polling, abort), typed entry tokens, stream options and retry policy,
TaskRuntime reads, Tx.settleSubmission, registry conversation setups,
Storage.scanSubmissions, Harness.inspect, and byTaskId attribution.
Waiting calls enable scheduling. The scratch tour is split into
test/examples.
