Summary

  • inject complete task, revision, comment, attempt, and project context into task-bound workers
  • add reference-only task context for pending-approval audits and document task management through the Spacebot CLI
  • persist and stream OpenCode session metadata and live transcript updates without relying on a parent channel consumer
  • reconcile the coding worker backend docs and add the local Whisper design

Testing

  • just preflight
  • just gate-pr
  • cargo clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings
  • focused task-context and worker-attempt tests

- SpawnWorkerTool now loads the full task record, comments, revisions, and
  attempt history and injects it into worker prompts, with a new
  task_context_number for read-only reference spawns that don't claim the task
- Task binding now checks the task's revision to avoid racing a spawn against
  a concurrent task edit
- OpenCode session creation and part updates now flow into ApiState so the
  frontend gets live transcript and session events
- README rewrite pitching the "multi-threaded" positioning; new local-whisper
  design doc

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The pull request adds task-aware worker spawning with read-only task references, persists and broadcasts OpenCode session metadata, updates live worker state, and expands documentation for backend architecture, local Whisper transcription, and Spacebot’s operating model.

Changes

Task-aware worker execution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Task context resolution and contracts
src/tasks/*, prompts/en/fragments/opencode_task_management.md.j2, prompts/en/tools/spawn_worker_description.md.j2, src/tools/spawn_worker.rs
Worker spawning loads complete task history and supports executable or read-only task context.
Task binding and worker dispatch
src/tools/spawn_worker.rs, src/agent/channel_dispatch.rs
Executable tasks use revision checks and structured WorkerTaskContext values. Failed bindings cancel the worker.
Task context validation
src/tools/spawn_worker.rs, src/agent/channel_dispatch.rs, src/tasks/worker_runs.rs
Tests cover prompt composition, task-reference validation, and complete attempt history retrieval.

OpenCode session lifecycle

Layer / File(s) Summary
Session metadata persistence
src/conversation/history.rs, src/opencode/worker.rs
OpenCode session IDs and ports are persisted for resumed and newly created sessions.
Live OpenCode events
src/api/state.rs, src/api/system.rs, interface/src/api/client.ts, interface/src/hooks/useLiveContext.tsx
OpenCode parts populate live transcripts, and session-created events propagate through API, SSE, and interface handlers.

Architecture and design documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Backend authority and lifecycle contracts
docs/design-docs/coding-worker-backends.md
The proposed backend design defines identity domains, event authority, generation fencing, liveness evidence, and shared execution.
Backend durability and rollout
docs/design-docs/coding-worker-backends.md
The design adds operation ledgers, event receipts, approval policies, environment controls, observability, tests, and rollout gates.
Local Whisper design
docs/design-docs/local-whisper.md
The design specifies local audio decoding, Whisper inference, caching, routing, configuration, and build requirements.
README architecture and operating model
README.md
The README updates Spacebot’s architecture, coding-worker model, team workflows, self-hosting details, and beta status.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 4d55c

This change adds richer task context and worker session tracking, but the current implementation can lose session identifiers during startup races, reject otherwise valid tasks when history is incomplete, and exceed the worker context window with unbounded history. These failures can prevent reconnecting to active workers or starting tasks, so the PR is not merge-ready until the affected paths are fixed.

Test incorrectly bound in-range proxy requests.

The migration requires verification of worker, backend, generation, loopback address, and live server binding at Lines 1294-1296. The OpenCode test list only rejects ports outside the active pool. Add cases where an in-range port belongs to another worker, another generation, or a stale server.

Add receipt durability and duplicate-delivery fixtures.

Add tests for an unknown worker and concurrent duplicate delivery. Assert that the receipt is retained and that only one normalized projection is applied.

Test the subprocess environment boundary.

The security contract requires local subprocesses to exclude the Spacebot daemon environment and inject only allowlisted variables and approved secret references at Lines 1412-1416. The adapter test list checks redaction after execution but does not test inherited environment variables. Add a sentinel daemon variable and assert that the child process cannot read it unless the profile explicitly allows it.

327-382: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚖️ Poor tradeoff

Reuse the shared directory resolution where the checks match.

This branch rebuilds the worktree and repo path joins that resolve_directory_from_project at line 1553 already performs. The duplication is defensible, because this version rejects a cross-project worktree instead of only warning.

Consider extracting the strict form into one helper and letting both call sites use it. That keeps the cross-project rule in a single place, so a future change to path resolution cannot apply to only one of the two paths.

Inline comments:
In `@docs/design-docs/coding-worker-backends.md`:
- Around line 870-900: Update WorkerCommand::RespondToRequest and
IdempotencyCapabilities to support stable operation identity for request
responses, including operation_id plus idempotent retry, request binding, and
reconciliation semantics consistent with worker_operations. Ensure ambiguous
responses participate in the existing fencing and retention rules, or remove
request-response operations from the ledger requirement.
- Around line 405-417: Extend LivenessCapabilities to cover the submitting and
cancelling attempt phases, or define an explicit, tested default mapping for
those phases. Ensure the supervisor can resolve a liveness deadline for every
observable phase, including observation, running, waiting, submitting, and
cancelling, while preserving the existing deadline behavior.
- Around line 646-655: Add an opaque provider-session binding to
WorkerBackendEventEnvelope and require it to match the persisted external
session before accepting or inserting any event; alternatively, implement an
equivalent driver-owned validation before receipt insertion. Ensure validation
also preserves the existing worker, backend, generation, and active-attempt
checks, without relying on optional provider_event_key or non-authoritative
source_metadata.
- Around line 939-953: Update the worker_event_receipts schema so
unknown_binding deliveries can persist their rejection receipts: either remove
the worker_runs foreign key and retain the raw worker identifier in quarantine,
or make the binding nullable while preserving the identifiers needed for audit.
Ensure the durable receipt path remains usable for unknown workers without
affecting known-worker receipts.
- Around line 939-962: Update the worker_event_receipts design and delivery flow
to require a non-null adapter deduplication key, defining stable identities for
poll and reconciliation observations. Enforce atomic receipt uniqueness or
claiming for each provider event key within the same transaction as
materialized-state application, ensuring concurrent duplicate deliveries cannot
both be accepted and terminal duplicates remain inert.

In `@docs/design-docs/local-whisper.md`:
- Line 87: Update the documented n_threads behavior in local-whisper to use
VoiceConfig.threads as the requested count, clamp it to available parallelism,
and explicitly define handling for zero and oversized values.
- Line 103: Update the routing configuration documentation around routing.voice
to define an explicit cloud fallback route or ordered route list for local/...
selections. Specify environment-variable precedence, ensure local engine
failures use the configured cloud route when available, and preserve the
existing failure marker when no fallback is configured.
- Line 48: Update the attachment dispatch logic in channel_attachments.rs so
audio attachments that fail the upstream MIME check can still reach the local
Whisper filename-fallback path by recognizing supported audio extensions or
sniffing container headers; preserve generic handling for other attachments and
keep the documented fallback behavior accurate.
- Around line 107-120: The configuration design must define a single
authoritative local Whisper model size when routing.voice and voice.model
disagree. Update the routing/config loading flow around RoutingConfig::for_model
and the voice settings in toml_schema.rs, types.rs, and load.rs so an explicit
local route such as local/whisper-small takes precedence, while voice.model is
applied only for a generic local route; validate unsupported model names and
preserve the existing SPACEBOT_VOICE_MODEL route override behavior.
- Line 50: Update the attachment processing pipeline to enforce resource limits
during execution: cap downloads before the complete attachment is buffered, and
make the decoder abort once decoded samples exceed the configured duration.
Preserve the existing AudioError-to-text-marker behavior, and add coverage for
malformed input and highly compressed audio using the relevant
attachment-download and decoding symbols.
- Line 52: Define an atomic synchronization protocol for idle unload and
inference usage, including the context-lock scope and shutdown behavior for
in-flight spawn_blocking tasks; ensure stale last_used values cannot trigger
unload after a newer use, and specify retrigger behavior after unloading. Add
focused tests covering concurrent first use, idle unload, shutdown, and
retrigger scenarios, and document race and terminal-state handling in the PR
summary.
- Around line 66-67: Update the Whisper model download and caching flow
described in the model-storage section to use a full Hugging Face commit SHA
rather than a mutable revision, and verify the downloaded temporary file against
its trusted SHA-256 digest before the atomic rename. On validation failure,
delete the temporary and any invalid cached file, then define the cache as
eligible for a fresh download on the next attempt; preserve the existing mutex
single-flight behavior.
- Around line 91-99: Update transcribe_audio_attachment and its
handle_message/download_attachments call path so local transcription is
dispatched to a bounded background voice worker rather than awaited on the
channel turn; add a completion/retrigger flow that resumes processing with the
transcription result, and ensure worker capacity is bounded without relying on
spawn_blocking alone.

In `@src/opencode/worker.rs`:
- Around line 943-959: Update persist_session_metadata to apply the same bounded
retry behavior used by ProcessRunLogger::log_opencode_metadata when
update_opencode_metadata returns Ok(false), preserving the existing handling for
success and terminal errors. Add a focused test that creates the worker row
during the retry window and verifies the session metadata is eventually
persisted.

In `@src/tools/spawn_worker.rs`:
- Around line 436-443: Remove the revision/snapshot-count mismatch error return
in the spawn flow around revisions and task.revision. Log the mismatch for
observability, then continue using the available revisions as reference context
so missing, pruned, or fewer snapshots never prevent spawning.
- Around line 445-513: Bound the InjectedTaskContext payload before
serialization: retain only the newest configured number of revisions and
comments, and include an explicit rendered notice that older entries were
omitted and can be retrieved through the Spacebot CLI. Apply the same
bounded-history approach to attempts if the existing context rendering includes
them, while preserving newest-first ordering and avoiding mutation of shared
data. In the serialization step identified by serde_json::to_string_pretty,
switch to compact serde_json::to_string.
- Around line 561-572: Move the embedded prompt from render_task_context into
prompts/en/fragments/injected_task_context.md.j2, register the new prompt key in
crate::prompts::text, and update render_task_context to load it with get and
substitute the JSON value while preserving the current rendered content and test
behavior.

Define liveness deadlines for all observable attempt phases.

Line 183 says liveness is phase-specific. The attempt state machine includes submitting and cancelling, but LivenessCapabilities defines deadlines only for observation, running, and waiting. Add deadlines for those phases, or define and test an explicit default mapping. Without that mapping, the supervisor cannot apply liveness consistently during submission and cancellation.

Bind events to the external session before acceptance.

The authority rule requires matching the persisted external session, current generation, and active attempt at Lines 172-179. WorkerBackendEventEnvelope carries worker_id, backend_id, and generation, but no external-session binding. provider_event_key is optional, and source_metadata is not authoritative at Lines 691-710. Add an opaque provider-session binding to the envelope, or define a driver-owned check before receipt insertion. Otherwise, a stale or reused provider session can submit events under the current worker binding.

Every externally visible create, submit, cancel, close, and request response
also has an operation-ledger row:

```sql
CREATE TABLE worker_operations (
id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
worker_id TEXT NOT NULL,
attempt_id TEXT,
kind TEXT NOT NULL,
request_hash TEXT NOT NULL,
state TEXT NOT NULL,
external_receipt TEXT,
reconciliation_evidence TEXT,
created_at TEXT NOT NULL,
resolved_at TEXT,
FOREIGN KEY (worker_id) REFERENCES worker_runs(id) ON DELETE RESTRICT,
FOREIGN KEY (attempt_id) REFERENCES worker_attempts(id) ON DELETE RESTRICT,
UNIQUE (worker_id, id)
);
```

The ledger records `prepared`, `submitted`, `confirmed`, `ambiguous`, and
`rejected` states. An operation ID can be retried only with its original kind,
worker and attempt binding, and request hash. A changed request is a new
operation. An ambiguous operation fences replacement creation, follow-up, and
terminal effects until an idempotent provider retry or reconciliation proves
the original result. Operation rows and their evidence remain available for at
least the retention lifetime of the worker, attempt, task execution, and any
resume metadata they fence. They are never TTL-pruned while ambiguous or while
the worker is non-terminal.

Permit durable receipts for unknown workers.

The contract requires unknown_binding deliveries to be retained at Lines 956-962. worker_event_receipts.worker_id is NOT NULL and references worker_runs, so a delivery for an unknown worker cannot insert its rejection receipt. Use a quarantine table without this foreign key, or make the binding nullable while retaining the raw identifiers needed for audit.

supervisor records stale and rejected deliveries without applying their state
change. Receipts are bounded diagnostic records, but retain the latest
disposition for every provider event key through the worker's retention
lifetime. This makes ignored events auditable without turning the event stream
into an authority source.

Make duplicate receipt handling atomic.

provider_event_key is nullable, and the table has no uniqueness constraint. The document still requires unique event keys and says duplicate terminal events are inert at Lines 1041-1042. Concurrent deliveries can therefore both receive accepted before normalized state is written. Require a non-null adapter deduplication key, including a defined identity for poll and reconciliation observations, and enforce a unique insert or claim in the same transaction as state application.

**Routing default.** `RoutingConfig::for_model` sets `voice: "local/whisper-base".into()`. That touches `src/llm/routing.rs:56` plus the ~15 test constructors in the same file that spell the struct out literally.

**New `[voice]` section** for the local-only knobs, threaded through `src/config/toml_schema.rs`, `src/config/types.rs`, and `src/config/load.rs`:

```toml
[voice]
model = "base" # tiny, base, small, medium, large-v3
language = "auto" # or "en", "es", ...
threads = 4
unload_after_idle_secs = 600
max_duration_secs = 600
```

The `SPACEBOT_VOICE_MODEL` env override (`src/config/load.rs:1025`) already exists and keeps working — it sets the route, not the local model size.

Choose one source of truth for the local model size.

routing.voice can select local/whisper-small, while [voice].model can select base. The document does not define which value wins.

Define precedence and validation. For example, make the explicit route size authoritative and use [voice].model only when the route is generic local.

Retry a missing worker row before publishing session metadata.

update_opencode_metadata returns Ok(false) when worker_runs is not committed yet. This helper only logs that result. The session ID and port are then lost permanently.

Use the same bounded retry behavior as ProcessRunLogger::log_opencode_metadata. Otherwise, a restart cannot reconnect an interactive worker, and the worker query can remain without its OpenCode session data.

Add a targeted test that inserts the worker row during the retry window. Describe this creation-order race and its terminal behavior in the PR summary.

Do not fail the spawn when the revision counter and the snapshot count disagree.

This check turns a storage-history inconsistency into a permanent spawn failure for the task. The worker uses revisions only as reference context. A missing or pruned snapshot does not make execution incorrect.

The counter can also legitimately exceed the snapshot count. backfill_baseline_revisions only covers tasks at revision = 0, and it records that earlier history is unavailable. Any task whose history was trimmed becomes unspawnable with no operator recovery path.

Log the mismatch and continue with the snapshots that exist.

🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Bound the injected context payload.

This builds an unbounded prompt payload. It concatenates every comment, every full revision snapshot, every attempt record, and every project repo and worktree, then serializes with to_string_pretty.

all_comments, all_revisions, and all_task_attempts deliberately drop the page limits that the API paths keep. Full revision snapshots are the largest part, because each snapshot stores a complete copy of the task.

The result is passed to worker_task_prompt in src/agent/channel_dispatch.rs and becomes the worker's first message. That text is never truncated. Fork budgeting at line 911 only shrinks conversation history around it. A long-lived task can therefore push the worker's first call past the context window.

Two changes reduce the risk:

  • Cap the injected history. Use the newest N revisions and comments, and state in the rendered block that older entries were omitted and are reachable through the Spacebot CLI.
  • Use serde_json::to_string instead of to_string_pretty. Pretty printing roughly doubles the token cost and gives the model no benefit.

The CLI guidance in prompts/en/fragments/opencode_task_management.md.j2 already gives the worker a way to read anything that is omitted.

Move this prompt block into prompts/.

render_task_context embeds a multi-paragraph, model-facing instruction block as a Rust format string. The coding guidelines require system prompts to live in prompts/ as markdown files and to be loaded at startup or on demand.

This PR already adds prompts/en/fragments/opencode_task_management.md.j2 and registers it in src/prompts/text.rs. Use the same path here: add prompts/en/fragments/injected_task_context.md.j2, register the key, load it with crate::prompts::text::get, and substitute the JSON.

The existing test task_context_render_marks_board_data_as_runtime_injected keeps working, because it asserts on the rendered output rather than the literal.

As per coding guidelines: "Don't store prompts as string constants in Rust. System prompts live in prompts/ as markdown files. Load at startup or on demand."
