fix(ai-sandbox): keep the first host's transcript on takeover - #2108
A sandbox takeover saved the tool result and the final text. It did not save the assistant text or the tool call that the first host already delivered. This PR records that prefix in the transcript. The event log still holds the prefix once.
🎯 Changes
On attach, alignedIfAttaching yields each stored chunk with tanstackStoredReplay: true. chat() records that prefix. withSandbox then drops the marked chunk from the public stream. pipeToRunLog does not append it again.
alignToStoredLog still drops the prefix by default. Only the attach wrapper yields the marked copies.
No page in docs/ said that the saved transcript omits this prefix. The e2e comment that said so is corrected. The assertion there was already the full text.
I have tested code changes locally with pnpm run test:pr, or these tests do not apply to this pull request.
I fully understand the code in this pull request, including any code generated with AI assistance.

🚀 Release Impact
This change affects published code, and I have generated a changeset.
This change is docs/CI/dev-only (no release).
Root cause
Issue. After a host restart during a slow Bash tool, the saved thread has the tool result and the final text. It has no assistant message for the Bash call, and no text the first host already delivered. A tool result with no call remains.
Cause.alignedIfAttaching runs inside the adapter chatStream. It calls alignToStoredLog, which drops every chunk the event log already holds. Those chunks never reach handleStreamChunk or withSandboxonChunk. The tool-history recorder never sees TOOL_CALL_START, TOOL_CALL_ARGS, or TOOL_CALL_END. The later TOOL_CALL_RESULT is stored alone.
Fix. On attach, yield a copy of each stored chunk marked tanstackStoredReplay. The engine and the recorder see it. withSandbox returns null for that mark, so the public stream stays the suffix. pipeToRunLog skips the same mark, so the log is not doubled.
Possible alternatives
Rebuild messages from the log in middleware. The middleware would parse the stored log into ModelMessage rows. This PR did not take it. That path copies the engine message builder.
Stop the drop inside alignToStoredLog. Every caller of that function would then append the prefix again. The conformance driver pipes that iterable straight into the log.
Drop duplicates only in pipeToRunLog. The public chat() stream would still send the prefix again. The live tail must stay the suffix.
Testing
Commands run:
packages/ai-sandbox: vitest run tests/takeover-transcript.test.ts tests/durability.test.ts tests/align.test.ts tests/middleware-tool-history.test.ts. 51 tests passed.
Attach tests in ai-claude-code (6), ai-codex (8), and ai-grok-build (7) passed.
Gate 1 used tests/gate1-takeover-repro.test.ts (not committed). It failed on 9bcdd4115 and passed on d432e0868.
pnpm test:pr was not run.
Manual test:
On main, seed the run log through TOOL_CALL_END for the text Starting the job. and a Bash call. Attach with alignedIfAttaching and withSandbox({ attach: true }). The saved thread is the user message, an orphan tool result done, and assistant text Finished..
On this branch, run the same attach. The saved thread matches a run that did not restart. It contains Starting the job. and the Bash call {"cmd":"sleep"}. The public text deltas are only Finished..
How this PR makes testing easy: packages/ai-sandbox/tests/takeover-transcript.test.ts compares an attach to a run that did not restart. It also covers a tool call cut between two argument deltas.

Risk / rollback
Revert this PR. A takeover then saves the suffix only, which is the old fault. Apps that iterate alignedIfAttaching and forward every chunk now see marked prefix chunks. withSandbox and pipeToRunLog skip those chunks.
Public API change
Most apps do not change their call. withSandbox still takes attach: true. The saved transcript now includes the prefix.
Improved sandbox takeover continuity: saved transcripts now retain text and tool calls delivered before and after a takeover, including tool arguments split across the handoff.
Stored transcript content is included in the saved conversation without being duplicated in the live stream or event log. Live output continues with the remaining content.
Alignment dropped chunks the event log already held before chat() could
record them. Yield those chunks marked, record them, and keep them off
the public stream and the log.
During sandbox attachment, matching stored chunks are yielded as marked replay chunks. The transcript and tool-history path can observe the prefix, while the public stream and run log omit those chunks. Tests cover full and partial prefixes, including tool-call arguments split across the takeover boundary.
Alignment can yield matched stored chunks as marked copies. alignedIfAttaching enables this behavior, and the package exports isStoredReplayChunk.
Filter replays from public output and run logs packages/ai-sandbox/src/middleware.ts, packages/ai-sandbox/src/run.ts, packages/ai-sandbox/tests/durability.test.ts, packages/ai-sandbox/tests/takeover-transcript.test.ts
Middleware records tool history and filters marked replay chunks from public output. Run-log processing skips them. Tests compare fresh and takeover transcripts, including when tool-call arguments cross the replay boundary.
Validate attach alignment across adapters packages/ai-claude-code/tests/attach.test.ts, packages/ai-codex/tests/attach.test.ts, packages/ai-grok-build/tests/attach.test.ts, testing/e2e/tests/durable-takeover.spec.ts, .changeset/sandbox-takeover-keeps-prefix.md
Adapter tests distinguish marked stored chunks from the undelivered tail. The end-to-end test comments describe the saved message and log assertions. The changeset declares patch releases for four packages.

Explanation
The title names the package (ai-sandbox), the fix type (fix), and the core behavior (keeping the first host's transcript on takeover). The changeset covers the same change: after a takeover, the saved transcript now keeps the prefix already delivered by the first host, and the event log stores it once. The title is specific and concise and does not use vague terms.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the template sections (Changes, Checklist, Release Impact) and adds useful context: root cause, fix, alternatives, testing commands with results, risk/rollback, and public API change. It also links the issue (#2061). The Changes section explains the change clearly. Two checklist items are unchecked: the local test run (pnpm run test:pr was not run, as the author states) and the docs update (no docs were changed). The description says none of the docs needed changes, but the box stays unchecked, which leaves the checklist state unclear. The author should either check the docs box with a reason or explain it in the Changes section. The description also does not say why the pnpm test:pr step was skipped beyond the note in Testing.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
Directly linked issue #2061 requires that the saved transcript after a takeover match a run that did not restart. It also requires that prefix assistant text and tool calls, including a call still running at the restart, appear in the transcript. No orphan tool result may remain.
The diff at reviewed head d432e0868 implements this path:
packages/ai-sandbox/src/align.ts: alignToStoredLog gains yieldStored. When it matches a stored chunk and yieldStored is set, it yields a copy marked tanstackStoredReplay. The default still drops the prefix. isStoredReplayChunk reads the mark.
packages/ai-sandbox/src/durability.ts: alignedIfAttaching passes yieldStored: true. The claude-code adapter reaches this path through alignedIfAttaching, so the fix applies to the reported adapter.
packages/ai-sandbox/src/middleware.ts: withSandboxonChunk calls toolHistory.observe(chunk) before it returns null for marked chunks. The recorder therefore sees the prefix TOOL_CALL_START, TOOL_CALL_ARGS, and TOOL_CALL_END, and the public stream does not receive the prefix.
packages/ai-sandbox/src/run.ts: pipeToRunLog skips marked chunks, so the event log does not hold the prefix twice.
The author reports these results: the committed suite takeover-transcript.test.ts and related suites passed (51 tests); the attach tests in the three harness packages passed; the uncommitted Gate 1 reproduction failed on 9bcdd4115 and passed on d432e0868. The committed takeover-transcript.test.ts compares saved messages from takeover and fresh runs, and covers a tool call split across the takeover boundary. I did not read that test file or run the tests. The order in which the engine folds a chunk relative to onChunk returning null is established only by the author's test results, not by the diffs I read.
Not covered: whether withPersistencesnapshotStreaming merges the first host's transcript. The issue lists this as unchecked, so it is not a requirement of this PR. #2035 is excluded as a different bug.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
Every changed hunk I inspected supports the takeover-transcript fix for #2061:
align.ts: adds the yieldStored option, the tanstackStoredReplay mark, the copy helper, and the exported isStoredReplayChunk. These are the mechanism itself.
durability.ts: alignedIfAttaching sets yieldStored: true, and the doc comment is updated. This is the attach entry point the issue names.
middleware.ts: the import and the marked-chunk return null after recording. The existing record-only comment is updated to match.
run.ts, index.ts: the run-log skip and the public export of isStoredReplayChunk. The export is required for adapters and apps to filter the mark.
Test updates in ai-claude-code, ai-codex, ai-grok-build, and ai-sandbox/tests/durability.test.ts: these assertions previously required suppression. They now check the marked replay and the unmarked live tail. This follows from the changed behavior.
takeover-transcript.test.ts: the new regression coverage for #2061.
.changeset entry and the durable-takeover.spec.ts comment correction: release metadata and a comment that now matches the asserted behavior.
No change is unrelated to #2061. The change to alignedIfAttaching output is a public behavior change. Direct callers that forward every chunk now receive marked prefix chunks. The PR description documents this and gives the skip snippet, and the change is inherent to the chosen fix. The docs/ checkbox is unchecked, but a docs update is not a coding requirement and does not make a code change out of scope.

Preserve prefix suppression for direct attach streams.
When an attach consumer forwards chatStream() without withSandbox or pipeToRunLog, it receives the stored prefix again. An SSE client can therefore receive duplicate text or tool calls. Make transcript replay opt-in for the chat engine while keeping direct attach streams prefix-free.
