Problem

The OpenCode harness was second-class in ADE: full-auto still raised approval cards for paths outside the worktree, a message typed mid-turn could not fold into the running turn, and an OpenCode tool returning a screenshot rendered as "Image generated" with the raw base64 data URI printed as its name. Separately, a turn's reasoning could render as two Thought rows or one doubled paragraph.

Cause

OpenCode had no inline active-turn steer path and no in-flight steer ownership, so a queued row could race the turn tail and a mid-turn message waited for the whole turn. Every OpenCode file part was labeled a generation regardless of who owned it, so a tool-returned image claimed to have been made by the model. Full-auto never stated external_directory, leaving OpenCode's default "ask" in force on a mode whose promise is no prompts.

Change and boundary

  • OpenCode becomes a first-class steer provider. Inline active-turn steer goes through the v2 session.prompt delivery: "steer" input with a server-branded msg_ admission id (a bare UUID 400s and would silently degrade every inline steer to the queue). Staged promotion, idle queue drain, and in-flight row protection are shared with Codex/Cursor; the turn-boundary drain guard now covers every runtime that tracks dispatchingSteerIds. The v2 prompt carries text and file parts only, so a per-message reasoning/execution/interaction override cannot ride it — those rows stage for the turn boundary instead, mirroring Cursor's refusal.
  • Full-auto no longer prompts for outside paths. It states external_directory: "allow" (a {pattern:"*"} rule appended after OpenCode's built-ins), which grants unrestricted external read/write — the point of full auto. The comment and docs/features/chat/README.md state that blast radius accurately.
  • Image rows tell the truth. An assistant-owned OpenCode file part is model output (codex_image_generation); a tool attachment is a view (codex_image_view) unless the tool is a recognized image-generation tool. The view line previews data: URIs inline only (the renderer CSP pins img-src, so a remote preview would paint an empty box), never prints base64 as a name, and keeps open for remote/local sources. Predicates live once in shared/chatImageUrls.ts and are shared by desktop, TUI, and iOS.
  • Reasoning merges duplicate-aware. Same-turn reasoning blocks merge even across provider item ids, and a re-sent/cumulative fragment is not repeated.
  • Mirror sync. packages/chat-ui's transcript reasoning grouping is matched to the desktop change and both @ade-dev/sdk / @ade-dev/chat-ui versions bump to 0.2.2 in lockstep.
  • Boundary: no image-generation feature is added; CTO_LIVE_REDIRECT_PROVIDERS is unchanged; the Claude/Cursor hand-rolled promotion paths are left as-is.

Verification

  • Desktop: npm --prefix apps/desktop run typecheck clean; affected suites green (agentChatService 1160, AgentChatPane 311, AgentChatMessageList 203, chatTranscriptRows, chatActivityPhase, openCodeStructuredActivity, openCodeRuntime 39, CodexImageViewLine, SubagentActivityCards, chatImageUrls).
  • CLI/TUI: npm --prefix apps/ade-cli run typecheck clean; TUI suite 1388 green.
  • SDK mirrors: typecheck:sdk/test:sdk (360) and typecheck:chat-ui/test:chat-ui (227) green.
  • Docs: node scripts/validate-docs.mjs passed (265 files). iOS: xcrun swiftc -parse clean.
  • Regression tests added for the two accepted correctness findings (inline steer with overrides stages rather than folding inline; anchor resolution past a hidden context_usage row uses the visible grouping), both verified to fail before the fix. /quality: 18 findings, 0 gate. /test: no prunes needed, parity passes complete.

Devin Review


Note

Medium Risk
Changes touch live-turn message delivery, queue/dispatch lifecycle, and permission rules for OpenCode sessions—areas where races or mis-routing could drop or duplicate user messages, though coverage is extensive in agentChatService tests.

Overview
OpenCode now supports inline active-turn steering via the v2 session.prompt path with delivery: "steer" and branded msg_ admission ids, plus staged promotion, in-flight dispatch protection, queue fallback when delivery is refused, and the same per-message override staging rules as Cursor. The shared dispatch table, CLI help, and TUI /steer send palette treat OpenCode like Codex (inline + queue, no interrupt).

Full-auto OpenCode sets external_directory: "allow" so reads outside the worktree no longer raise approval cards; other permission modes still omit that key.

Image presentation splits OpenCode assistant file parts (generation) from tool attachments (view), adds shared isDataUri / isRemoteOrDataUri helpers, avoids printing base64 as titles in TUI/desktop, and previews data-URI views inline where CSP allows.

Claude reasoning is deduped when stream indices disagree with SDK snapshots; transcript grouping merges same-turn thought rows with duplicate-aware fragment merging and drops hidden context_usage rows before grouping so anchors and Thought rows stay aligned.

UI polish: subagent spawn/result cards show the owning runtime provider mark; Codex local-path detection uses the shared remote/data predicate.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • OpenCode now supports inline steering during active turns, with queue fallback when inline delivery is unavailable.
    • Subagent activity cards display the relevant provider.
    • OpenCode image attachments and generated images support local, remote, and data-URI sources.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Prevented repeated reasoning text and hidden context snapshots from creating duplicate or misaligned transcript entries.

OpenCode inline steering
apps/ade-cli/..., apps/desktop/src/main/services/chat/..., apps/desktop/src/main/services/opencode/..., apps/desktop/src/shared/types/..., apps/ios/...
OpenCode now supports inline steering through v2 session prompts. Refused or unsupported steers fall back to queue handling. Capability declarations and tests reflect inline and queue modes.
Image attachment handling
apps/desktop/src/shared/..., apps/desktop/src/main/services/chat/openCodeStructuredActivity.ts, apps/desktop/src/renderer/components/chat/codex/..., apps/ade-cli/src/tuiClient/format.ts
Image handling distinguishes generated images, viewed attachments, data URIs, remote URLs, and local paths. Data URIs display as image and can render inline previews.

Reasoning fragments merge by turn and containment. Claude snapshot reasoning is compared with streamed text to avoid duplicate output.
Transcript filtering and provider markers
apps/desktop/src/renderer/components/chat/AgentChatMessageList.tsx, AgentChatPane.tsx, SubagentActivityCards.tsx
Hidden context snapshots and same-provider handoffs are removed before grouping. Subagent cards display the resolved child provider or parent provider.

Remove the unnecessary wall-clock delay.

The thinking delta updates the deduplication state before the snapshot is yielded. The 120 ms delay does not control deduplication and only slows the test. Remove the setTimeout wait instead of synchronizing on buffered event delivery.

Addressed in 2129a487c — three implemented, one triaged as a deliberate design tradeoff.

Implemented

  • AgentChatPane.tsx:5841 (child provider marks stale, Devin): the resolver is now keyed on a signature of the child→provider mapping. A child that appears (or changes provider) in a later refresh produces a new resolver so its card updates; a session refresh that only replaces the array keeps the same resolver, so the transcript row memo is no longer invalidated on every refresh.
  • chatTranscriptRows.ts:2843 (same-item deltas, CodeRabbit): grouping now folds consecutive fragments with the same (itemId, summaryIndex) through mergeReasoningFragment before the list-level dedup, so "Hello " + "world" rejoin as "Hello world" instead of two ----separated blocks. Mirrored in packages/chat-ui/src/transcript/transcriptRows.ts. Regression tests added/updated in both.
  • cli.ts:2656 (CodeRabbit): the help text uses “and” instead of “+”.

Triaged

  • chatActivityPhase.ts:94 (containment as proof of a replay, CodeRabbit, Major): the clearly-wrong partial boundary splice was already removed in 25c576458 (Devin's earlier finding) — that was the case that ate real characters. The remaining exact/prefix/full-suffix and contained-block collapses are exactly the documented replay cases: a cumulative snapshot after streamed deltas (incoming.startsWith(existing)), and Claude persisting one thought under both the stream index and the snapshot index (different itemId, one containing the other). The producer also skips a snapshot whose full text was already streamed. Replacing these with event-level provenance needs a snapshot/replay marker the event contract does not carry; treating every text containment as genuine would reintroduce the doubled-paragraph corruption this branch fixes. Keeping the documented behavior.
