fix(antigravity): recover threads after a lost thinking signature - #28889
Antigravity threads can stay stuck after Claude rejects a saved thinking signature. The failed native session is now marked unusable, so the next message starts a fresh session with the thread's context. That status survives Stop, sign-out, provider switches, queued account handovers and a server restart, and a restarted server opens the fresh session directly instead of resuming the unusable one first. Recovery respects /clear and keeps the user's earlier conversation after scheduled side runs.
Closing the issue here means a rejected signature no longer bricks the thread. It does not repair the original native session; the signature loss itself is the runtime's, and runtime 1.5.9 no longer showed it (below).
Evidence
Run live against Antigravity: managed runtime 1.5.9, Google account, Claude Sonnet 4.6 (Thinking) at High, in the web client on isolated dev state (vp run dev), Linux x86_64. Both sides use the same steps: a first turn with thinking, a server restart, then more turns.
How the failure was triggered. It did not occur on its own. On main, runtime 1.5.9 kept the signatures across two restarts and a tool-call turn in these runs, and every turn answered (recording). It also answered after the signatures were deleted from its session log, so the issue's thinking.signature: Field required form could not be produced live. To make Claude reject the saved history, the signature stored for turn 1 was overwritten by hand in the runtime's session log while the server was stopped. Everything after that is real: the runtime replays the block, Claude answers messages.1.content.0: Invalid `signature` in `thinking` block, and T3 reads that from the runtime's log.
Before, main 7379f1969b0f4b579327cf81299ef8cc3ddf8e9c: turn 2 (session/resume) and turn 3 (session/new + session/load) fail the same way on the same native session, and the provider thread stays idle.
After, head 5ca0848d7c91de2211d02de7dffefcb99e2daf92 (main 6d3f6423a341b315a091567aee5ab34a3b8b0373 merged in, seven commits after the before commit, none in this path): turn 2 fails once with the recovery notice, the next message starts a new native session with a context handoff and answers the codeword from turn 1, and a further message and one after another restart work.
after-head-5ca0848.mp4
With the server restarted between the failed turn and the next message, the provider thread is stored as error while the server is down, and the next message recovers with a single session/new.

Walkthrough
Antigravity prompt failures now include a reusable or broken thread disposition. The ACP adapter applies the disposition to thread status and failed terminal events, rejects resume attempts for threads in error status, and preserves error status during sign-out and run startup.
turnFailure now pairs failures with a thread disposition. Invalid saved thinking signatures produce a broken disposition; other provider failures produce a reusable disposition. Tests cover these outcomes and quoted signature-error text.
Apply disposition to turns and resumes packages/provider-acp/src/server/adapter.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Adapters/AcpAdapterV2.test.ts
The ACP adapter applies the disposition during turn finalization, emits it on failed terminal events, and rejects resume for threads in error status. Tests cover reusable failures, broken-thread state, and resume rejection.
Preserve error status in orchestration apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/ProviderTurnStartService.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/ProviderTurnStartService.test.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Orchestrator.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/testkit/ProviderSwitch.integration.test.ts
Sign-out and run startup preserve a provider thread's error status. Integration tests cover handoffs and queued PR updates that use a replacement native thread and include prior work.

Explanation
The title "fix(antigravity): recover threads after a lost thinking signature" matches the main change. The raw summary and objectives show the PR classifies the native signature error as broken history, persists the provider thread's error status, and routes the next message through a fresh-session handoff. The title is specific, follows conventional commit form, and names the provider and the failure mode. It does not cover the sign-out and status-preservation changes, which is acceptable because the title need not cover every detail.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the template's Problem, Change, Scope, and Verification sections. It explains the Antigravity thinking-signature failure, the fix that marks the native session unusable and starts a fresh session, and the verification. It links an issue (#28870) and a focused bug-fix exception. Some gaps remain. The Scope section does not say why the change needs no separate issue beyond the link. The Verification section relies on the author's own test runs and fixture recordings, and it names unverified live-provider behavior. The description also contains a long evidence block that the template does not ask for, and it cites commit SHAs and a local Linux runner that a reviewer cannot easily reproduce. The template asks for the model and harness used, and the author lists them at the end. Overall the description is mostly complete.

resumeThread fails with the string "The native session history is unusable.". The outer mapError wraps this string as cause in ProviderAdapterResumeThreadError. A string has no tag or structured attributes. Callers and logs cannot distinguish this case from other resume failures without matching on text. The same file uses ProviderAdapter.ProviderAdapterProtocolError with a detail field for protocol-level refusals.

Gate the "Subagent work" control on a server capability.
The control shows for every Antigravity subagent thread. It does not check whether the connected server implements orchestration.getNativeChildWork.
The repository guidelines say new features must work for remote environments and for the public app.t3.codes client. That client can connect to an older server that has an Antigravity provider but no such RPC. On that server, Subagent work opens a dialog that shows only an RPC error.
Other features use environment.capabilities.* flags for this case. Add a nativeChildWork capability:
Set it in apps/server/src/environment/ServerEnvironment.ts.
Add it to the capabilities contract.
Read it in ChatView.tsx and in apps/mobile/src/features/threads/ThreadDetailScreen.tsx.
Hide the control when the flag is missing.
As per coding guidelines: "Remote ready ... we need to make sure new features are properly supported."

When Claude rejects Antigravity's saved history because a thinking block
lost its signature, every later prompt to that native session fails the
same way. The native error step is now read as a broken-thread failure:
the turn fails with INVALID_THINKING_SIGNATURE and threadDisposition
broken, which persists the provider thread as error. The ACP adapter
refuses to resume an error row, so the next turn takes the existing
resume-failure path into a fresh native session with a context handoff.
Quota and other API errors keep the native session.

merged current main a185dd924889 into the existing head without rebasing. final head is 1d84b5d1408d38121b6b57b2e656c10ca76ae122. main includes the desktop shell clock synchronization fix that caused the previous ci timeout. the signature-recovery diff remains eight files, 340 additions and 77 deletions; no additional production changes were needed.
blacksmith vp run check:changed passed format, lint, knip, affected package typechecks and scoped tests. a separate run passed all 160 cases across the desktop shell, acp adapter and provider-switch suites, including the exact previously failing desktop test. two independent read-only reviews approve this final head. resolved the two stale convention threads after verifying their existing replies and confirming those lines are unchanged from main.
live authenticated antigravity recovery remains unverified because this vm has no saved provider profile. existing fixture recordings and the pr-body limitation remain in effect.

Resolve Orchestrator.ts against #36103: the shared contextBoundaryOrdinal in
ContextHandoffService now takes main's projection-based algorithm, which skips
fresh-session scheduled runs, and isScheduledFreshRun moves beside it. Provider
start recovery reads the thread's full turn-start history for the boundary,
since its turn-start context carries only the target run's turn items.

The earlier Agent context budget failure came from a stale merge ref carrying main's previous mcpToolListJsonBytes value (49806) while main reported 49792. Julius's update merge 637b2d7 cleared that failure. Correction: that commit only updates main and does not constitute a takeover. This thread continues the PR follow-up.
The automated pipeline stopped on this pull request and will not merge it:
the fix is written and reviewed, but proving it needs something no worker has:
Permanent blocker: Antigravity is unavailable on every worker VM. Proving repeated missing thinking.signature failures on base and recovery with retained conversation context on head requires a signed-in Antigravity installation with an extended-thinking Claude model. Scenario replay uses generic ACP and cannot reproduce this provider-specific behavior.

…ssion before replacing it
After a server restart, the first message to a thread whose native history
was marked unusable opened its session with the broken native id, resumed
it, and only then started the replacement. The session now opens without
that id and recovery uses it, so the runtime starts once.
