fix(web-search): do not release a withheld client call under a failed turn - #4595
Conversation
Names the six source files three separate merges each touched in the dev delta, states that the audit reads the merged state rather than any single diff, and records the one deliberate deviation from the release script preflight along with what covers each skipped check.
… turn A mixed bridge leg whose upstream terminal was response.failed released its withheld client-executed tool call, because the mixed-tool termination change routed both failed and incomplete terminals through the same endWithoutSearch branch and that branch flushes held calls. The failure path ten lines above documents the opposite rule: releasing a tool call the client would start executing is exactly what must not happen under a turn that is already over. The two terminals differ. An incomplete turn is one the client can still act on, so its held call goes back; a failed turn is over. The decision now carries whether held calls may be released, true only for incomplete, and the emit path drops them otherwise. The hosted cell still closes in both cases, which is what the reordering was for. Found by a cross-merge regression audit of the dev delta before promotion. Records the audit findings for all five contended file groups alongside the fix.

When a response has already retained 500 output items, retain marks retainedItemsComplete false. In this failed mixed-leg path, dropHeldCalls() then clears only the queued SSE events, while terminalFrames() skips rebuilding the terminal snapshot and relays the upstream response.failed.response.output verbatim—including the supposedly withheld client function call. The original defect therefore persists for large responses; remove dropped calls from the terminal payload regardless of the retention cap, and cover this boundary in the regression test.

This changes the documented streaming contract by making failed and incomplete terminals handle withheld client calls differently, but structure/INDEX.md maps src/web-search/ to structure/runtime.md and this commit leaves that document unchanged. Its current hosted-search section still groups both terminal types together without recording this new invariant, so update the owned document alongside the implementation.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.
preview and main carry two different version lines over the same product tree, because release.yml requires package.json to equal the dispatched version and a preview dispatch must be a prerelease. Only the clean-tree guard and the npm channel-forward check are script-only. And only a push-event CI run on the release branch satisfies the publish gate; a green PR run at the same SHA is refused.

Make the preview package version match the preview publish input.
Step 1 promotes the dev tree with the 2.55.0 version line to preview. Step 2 then dispatches 2.55.0-preview.<stamp>. The version contract in .github/workflows/release.yml requires this input to equal package.json, so the preview publish will be rejected. Add a preview-only version bump and commit before dispatch, then use that commit's expected-sha.

Merging into dev under the single-maintainer dev integration clause in MAINTAINERS.md. This is the one finding from a cross-merge regression audit of the 43-commit dev delta, run before promoting that tree to preview and main. Five reviewers read the merged state on dev rather than any individual pull request diff, one per file group touched by more than one merge. Four groups came back clean, including the account-routing group that three separate sessions changed in sequence — the reviewer there first established those commits were sequential rather than parallel, then verified the cache-safe replacement is still reachable now that cache affinity defaults on, by tracing that a fully spent account remains selectable. This finding was not a two-lane collision. It is a defect inside a single merge, and the audit caught it because reading a merged file against its own documented invariants finds both kinds. The bridge released a withheld client-executed tool call under a response.failed terminal, ten lines below a comment stating that releasing a call Codex would start executing is exactly what must not happen. Exact-head evidence at ebbac84: 29 successes, 2 skips, no failures. Local suite runs: NOT RUN. Hosted CI at the exact head is the proof of record. |

Summary
A mixed web-search bridge leg whose upstream terminal was
response.failedreleased its withheld client-executed tool call. It should not: the turn is over,
and handing the client a call to start executing inside a dead turn is precisely
what the bridge's own failure path refuses to do, ten lines above, in as many
words.
The mixed-tool termination change reordered the leg decision so the
failed/incomplete terminal is checked before the client-executed-call case, and
routed both terminals into the same
endWithoutSearchbranch. That branch callsflushHeldCalls(). Before the reordering, a mixed leg with a failed terminalreached the failure path and dropped the held call.
The two terminals are not interchangeable.
response.incompleteleaves a turnthe client can still act on, so handing its call back is correct and there is an
existing test asserting exactly that.
response.faileddoes not.The fix splits them on that distinction rather than reverting the reordering: the
leg decision now carries whether held calls may be released, true only for
incomplete, and the emit path drops them otherwise. The hosted cell stillcloses under both terminals, which is what the reordering existed for — an
in_progressweb_search_call left under a finished turn is a "Searching the web"spinner that never stops.
Found by a cross-merge regression audit of the 43-commit
devdelta, run beforepromoting that tree to
previewandmain. Five reviewers read the merged stateon
devrather than any individual diff, one per file group touched by more thanone merge. Four groups were clean; this was the one finding. The audit record for
all five is included.
Verification
bun run test— NOT RUN (no local suite in this work; hosted CI at the exact head is the proof of record)bun run typecheck— NOT RUN (same; the CIgatesjob runs it)as its sibling: same mixed leg,
response.failedinstead ofresponse.incomplete, asserting that no function call and no call id reach theclient while the hosted cell still closes as failed.
call is released, so the two terminals are pinned against each other.
