fix(acp): retain delivered instructions when reopening a conversation - #24740
Settling and reopening an ACP thread loses the runtime's instruction-delivery record, so the next prompt appends the same instruction block to an already populated native conversation. Fixes https://git.cafe/pingdotgg/t3code/issues/24465.
Change
Persist a small optional receipt containing the native session ID and a SHA-256 digest of the generated instructions. Only matching instructions for that conversation suppress reinjection. Record successful delivery before terminal events, including ACP v2 work-state completion. Compaction, replacement instructions and session replacement invalidate the receipt; failed or cancelled turns do not establish durable delivery. Existing in-process acknowledgement still supports steering.
Receipt-invalidation persistence failures are logged and retried on subscriber close and session release. Failed release writes enter the existing release-record retry worker after process teardown. The same provider-thread comparison and ownership guards protect newer receipts.
Scope and approval
Submitted under the focused bug-fix exception for restoring instruction-delivery bookkeeping on an existing conversation; no maintainer approval or completed issue triage is claimed. The optional metadata needs no database migration or backfill. Old records conservatively inject instructions. Client behavior is shared across web, desktop, mobile and remote access. Other ACP-backed driver edits only declare the digest service required by the shared adapter.
Verification
Current head 4255923d22 merges main 32882540fb. The event pump retains ACP instruction invalidation and the main branch’s retry watchdog. Main’s new Grok adapter tests receive the digest layer required by the shared adapter. vp run check:changed 32882540fb --concurrency 1 passes 217 tests in six files, 37 package typechecks, GraphQL, format, lint and both Knip checks.
The regression uses real mock ACP subprocesses and production adapter/session-manager code. It covers first delivery, close/reopen of the same native session, native/protocol compaction, work-state completion, cancelled steering, mode transitions, idle compaction, same-ID rollback and persistence failure. Before the corresponding fixes, reopened prompts wrongly repeated or omitted instructions; the invalidation failure also prevented later runtime events. The ownership-matrix tests also reproduce a failed idle invalidation followed by release while the subscriber is still open, a failed release write followed by a successful retry, an exclusive-session detach after a failed invalidation write, and release before the manager receives an adapter update. The real mock ACP test verifies that the adapter exposes the invalidation before its event is consumed and retains it when a subsequent native load fails. Current integration details.
No paid Copilot/Trae calls or real client were used for this verification. External compaction while T3 is disconnected, providers silently rewriting history, and platform-native UI behavior remain unverified. Receipts contain no prompt text.

973d7b80c8 integrates main’s ACP compaction, handoff, and release changes. The adapter uses the existing compaction marker and deduplication before clearing persisted instruction receipts. The merged tests cover focused compaction, reopen and failed activation, cancellation, refusal, idle compaction, and the finalization window. vp run check:changed 56fd98be52 --concurrency 1 passed 246 tests and 37 package typechecks. Verification used the mock ACP subprocesses and production adapter/session-manager code.
Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Reopened ACP conversations retain delivery receipts so unchanged instructions need not be sent again. Session matching, compaction invalidation, and conditional persistence limit the change to instruction-delivery bookkeeping.

Walkthrough
The ACP adapter now stores instruction receipts in provider-thread metadata and uses them when preparing prompts. Compaction, rollback, and resume update this state. ProviderSessionManager conditionally persists instruction invalidations, with tests covering session transitions and persistence cases.

Summary
Instruction identity and reuse packages/contracts/src/orchestrationV2.ts, packages/provider-acp/src/server/adapter.ts, packages/provider-*/src/server/adapter.ts, packages/provider-grok/src/server/adapter.test.ts
Provider-thread metadata adds an optional ACP instruction receipt containing a native session ID and digest. The ACP adapter hashes rendered instructions and uses the receipt when preparing prompts. It updates instruction metadata during delivery, compaction, rollback, and resume. Provider driver environment types include the digest service.
The session runtime can expose invalidated provider threads. ProviderSessionManager tracks invalidations and conditionally clears stored receipts when ownership checks match. It flushes pending invalidations during release and subscription close. Tests cover ownership, release timing, failures, and retries.
Adapter tests cover instruction reuse and reinjection across session updates, reopen, rollback, compaction, mode changes, cancellation, and work-state completion. The mock agent can emit an accepted-prompt event before processing a prompt.
Reopening an ACP conversation no longer resends unchanged instructions. Compaction, rollback, instruction changes and session replacement still trigger reinjection. If saving an invalidation fails, the error is logged and retried later rather than tearing down the live session. No known defects remain; a few real-provider paths, such as compaction while disconnected, are untested but not known to fail.

Explanation
The title "fix(acp): retain delivered instructions when reopening a conversation" names the main change. The PR persists a receipt of delivered ACP instructions (native session ID plus SHA-256 digest) so that reopening the same native conversation does not reinject the instruction block. The title follows the conventional commit format the template suggests.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the template's sections: Problem, Change, Scope, and Verification. The Problem section states the bug and links issue #24465. The Change section explains the persisted receipt design and invalidation rules. The Scope section explains the bug-fix exception and states that no maintainer approval is claimed. The Verification section lists the commands run, test counts, and unverified areas. Minor gaps: the template asks for a reproduction-focused Problem statement and a maintainer-request link where applicable, and the description includes an extra 'November 14 integration' section. The Verification section also points to a comment link rather than restating the results in full, and it does not describe UI evidence, which the template only requires for UI changes. These gaps are non-critical.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
[#24465] The change adds an optional acpInstructions receipt (native session ID and SHA-256 digest) to OrchestrationV2ProviderThreadNativeMetadata in packages/contracts/src/orchestrationV2.ts. packages/provider-acp/src/server/adapter.ts reuses remembered instruction state only when the stored session ID and digest match the generated instructions. This suppresses the duplicate block when the same native conversation is reopened. The receipt is recorded during successful turn finalization, before terminal events, including ACP v2 work-state completion. Failed and cancelled turns do not record it. Compaction (native and protocol), replacement instructions, session replacement, and rollback invalidate it, so legitimate reinjection remains. ProviderSessionManager.ts persists invalidations with provider-thread, run, native-ID, and ownership guards. It retries failed writes on subscriber close and session release, and it hands failed release writes to the existing release-record retry worker. AcpAdapterV2.test.ts and ProviderSessionManager.test.ts cover reopen, compaction, mode change, cancellation, work-state completion, and persistence failure, using mock ACP subprocesses and production adapter and session-manager code. Residual limits: legacy records without a receipt inject conservatively, as the PR states. The previous review noted a session_info_update before the first resumed turn that can omit the receipt from a partial metadata payload. The current summary does not state that this limit is resolved, so it remains unconfirmed at this head. Real Copilot provider flows, external compaction while disconnected, and native client behavior were not verified. This verdict rests on the PR summary, the test descriptions, and the prior assessment. No new repository inspection was made.

Explanation
Each changed area connects to the #24465 objective or supports its verification.
packages/contracts/src/orchestrationV2.ts: adds the receipt field.
packages/provider-acp/src/server/adapter.ts and apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/ProviderSessionManager.ts: implement receipt write, restore, invalidation, and retry logic.
packages/provider-core/src/server/ProviderAdapter.ts: adds the optional readInstructionInvalidations runtime property so the session manager can persist queued invalidations.
AcpAdapterV2.test.ts and ProviderSessionManager.test.ts: cover the regression matrix.
apps/server/scripts/acp-mock-agent.ts: adds the opt-in T3_ACP_ECHO_ACCEPTED_PROMPT echo used by the regression harness.
Digest additions in the provider-acp-registry, provider-fx, provider-grok, and provider-kiro adapter environment types, and the Grok adapter test layer: required because the shared ACP adapter now requires the Digest service.
No changed area lacks a concrete connection to #24465.

updated the original branch, keeping @nateEc's commits and persisted-receipt design. merged current github/main without rebasing.
registered resumed threads before idle updates and reconciled their cached metadata.
persisted idle receipt invalidations through the session manager, including reapplying them after queued completion writes, session release, and repeated cleanup. conditional writes preserve newer session/run ownership and other stored metadata.
restored generation-checked compaction-marker cleanup on successful prompt acknowledgements, including cancelled prompts. cancelled turns still do not establish durable receipts.
removed the duplicate successful-completion thread update and narrowed its helper to invalidation.
verification: reproduced the reopen failure on current main, missing invalidation after resume, lost idle persistence, queued-completion overwrite, and cancelled-prompt reinjection before their fixes. blacksmith vp run check:changed passes formatting, lint, both knip passes, graphql generation, affected typechecks, and 135 tests. all 24 registry/grok replay tests also pass. no new test files or ui changes.
@nateEc, a remaining low finding is that a session_info_update before the first resumed turn can omit the receipt from a partial metadata payload and cause conservative reinjection. recorded as a known limit rather than extending the review loop. external compaction while disconnected and real account-based provider/client flows remain unverified; verification used production adapter code with real local mock acp subprocesses and the session manager's sqlite persistence path.
head: cb0b4371bb7c93867dc731188639ce09a51d6553. two independent reviews found the ordering/cleanup cases above; each now has a failing-before/passing-after regression. the allowed review round and follow-up are complete; the final cleanup correction was verified with the existing checks and has not had another independent review. final ci is green, including all eight server shards, web tests, build/typecheck, lint, release smoke, and the correctness check. coderabbit rate-limited the latest review. human lifecycle approval remains.
Merged current main in 7f20d1b. Instruction-state invalidation now lives in main's shared replacement-session commit path, so rollback and forced replacement clear stale instruction receipts while preserving unrelated native metadata. Both main's shutdown/question behavior tests and this PR's instruction-invalidation ownership tests are retained. vp run check:changed passes, including 140 tests across 3 files and affected-package typechecks. The existing request for maintainer review of the persistence approach still applies.
