📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved recovery of interrupted or missing tasks in nested delegation chains while preserving parent waiting states.
    • Re-delegation now checks for active task owners across providers and reports clearer validation errors.
    • Prevented recovery when delegated children or their descendants have live owners.
    • Added safeguards for cancellation, disposal, and task-state changes during delegation.
    • Cancelled or abandoned task registration now cleans up without leaving stale task entries.
    • Improved handling of task history refresh errors and invalid task IDs.
  • Documentation

    • Updated task lifecycle guidance with dead-chain recovery rules.

Walkthrough

The change adds runtime ownership checks and recovery for dead delegated-task chains. Startup reconciliation and runtime re-delegation repair eligible chains. Task registration and delegation check cancellation and disposal, with rollback where required. The lifecycle model and tests cover recovery and ownership checks.

Changes

Nested delegation recovery

Layer / File(s) Summary
Lifecycle recovery contract
src/core/task-persistence/taskLifecycle.ts, src/core/task-persistence/index.ts, scripts/check-task-lifecycle.ts, src/core/task-persistence/__tests__/taskLifecycle.spec.ts, docs/architecture/task-lifecycle-model.md
Lifecycle helpers detect dead chains and clear recovered delegation links. The model tracks runtime ownership, owner loss, and recovery transitions. Tests and documentation describe and validate these rules.
Startup dead-chain reconciliation
src/core/task-persistence/TaskHistoryStore.ts, src/core/task-persistence/__tests__/TaskHistoryStore.reconciliation.spec.ts, src/core/task-persistence/__tests__/TaskHistoryStore.spec.ts
Reconciliation uses an ownership reservation, skips tasks with live owners, and repairs dead nested chains. Repair intents support interrupted parent targets and recover after injected write failures. Strict refresh updates valid records and rejects invalid records.
Runtime re-delegation and registration
src/core/webview/ClineProvider.ts, src/__tests__/ClineProvider.delegation.spec.ts, src/core/webview/__tests__/ClineProvider.spec.ts
Runtime checks ownership across active providers, refreshes delegation history, and recovers dead awaited children before re-delegation. Registration and delegation check cancellation and disposal. Failure handling removes registered tasks or restores committed parent state where applicable.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 6c3b3

The identified recovery and cancellation risks are addressed; no actionable merge-blocking issue remains after normal checks.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 6c3b3

Recovery adds useful safeguards, but a failed handoff can overwrite a newer pending request while restoring an older one. This affects rollback ownership and task continuity. The inspected execution paths still require approval; no permission bypass was established.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · reliability · inferred: Post-commit rollback can overwrite a newer pending request. After delegation commits, another producer can stage request B while the parent still awaits the same child. If the original delegation then fails, compensation checks only parent status and awaited-child identity before restoring the previously saved action A, or undefined. Pending-action staging is outside the per-parent transition lock, and status validation does not reject this replacement. This can discard newer work and restore stale replayable state, weakening rollback ownership. Subsequent execution still requires approval.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The supported rollback concern affects persisted pending requests for the parent undergoing a failed handoff. Multiple producers targeting that task can interfere with request identity; the inspected code does not establish cross-tenant access or additional credential authority.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • observed — Initial subtask execution asks for approval after staging its pending action, and pending-action replay asks for approval again before delegation. These controls bound the stale-restoration concern: the supported consequence is request-state corruption, not an established approval bypass.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Delegation binds a supplied parent ID to the current runtime task and checks pending-action identity before recovery. Runtime recovery refreshes descendant history and rechecks liveness under the ownership reservation before changing the child.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Delegation-link ownership and pending-request ownership are distinct invariants. The new compensation preserves a newer handoff by checking the awaited child, but that guard does not preserve a replacement pending action when the handoff pointer remains unchanged.

Full details: Regression Evidence

Explanation

The new task-ID validation rejects IDs ending in a dot, but the focused refreshStrict() negative tests do not exercise that case. TaskHistoryStore.isSafeTaskId() adds !/[. ]$/.test(value) at lines 797–807, and getTaskFilePath() applies it before file access at lines 1276–1283. The test table at TaskHistoryStore.spec.ts lines 533–543 covers a trailing space (".. ") but no ordinary trailing-dot ID. Trailing dots are a distinct path-alias case identified by the changed code’s comment, so this new rejection behavior lacks focused evidence.

Full details: Security Boundaries

Explanation

TaskHistoryStore.refreshStrict() includes the absolute filePath in its new error message when a history record fails schema or ID validation (src/core/task-persistence/TaskHistoryStore.ts:860-862). The provider builds the store from globalStorageUri.fsPath (src/core/webview/ClineProvider.ts:358), so this path can contain a user name or private custom-storage location. During re-delegation, refreshDelegationChain() calls refreshStrict() (ClineProvider.ts:3810-3818); NewTaskTool forwards the error to handleError, which serializes it into the tool result (NewTaskTool.ts:137-139, presentAssistantMessage.ts:699-706). A malformed or mismatched descendant history record can therefore send the local storage path in the task conversation.

Resolution

Remove the absolute path from the thrown error. Return a generic validation error or include only a validated task ID. Keep any detailed filesystem path in a local diagnostic channel that is not included in tool results or sent to the model.

Full details: Persistence Integrity

Explanation

The new runtime recovery path can sever a live descendant during an atomic history-file update. safeWriteJson holds a per-file advisory lock, renames the existing file to a backup, then renames the new file into place (src/utils/safeWriteJson.ts:104-125). In that brief gap, refreshStrict() treats ENOENT as a genuinely missing task and evicts its cache entry (src/core/task-persistence/TaskHistoryStore.ts:846-857). refreshDelegationChain() calls this for every descendant (src/core/webview/ClineProvider.ts:3810-3819), after which isDeadDelegationChain() can treat a missing descendant without a locally visible owner as dead and recoverDeadDelegatedChild() persists the intermediate task as interrupted with its child links cleared (src/core/webview/ClineProvider.ts:3822-3847; src/core/task-persistence/taskLifecycle.ts:116-130). This is possible when another extension host owns the descendant because the ownership callback only checks providers in the current process (src/core/webview/ClineProvider.ts:210-212, 358-360). The existing reconciliation code recognizes this exact rename gap by checking the task file's lock before treating it as absent (src/core/task-persistence/TaskHistoryStore.ts:397-410); refreshStrict() has no equivalent guard.

Resolution

Make refreshStrict() distinguish a truly missing record from the temporary rename gap. Read under the same per-file advisory lock used by safeWriteJson, or check for an active lock after ENOENT and retry or fail closed. Do not let runtime dead-chain recovery update an ancestor based on a record that is being written.

🔵 Trivial · Unify the runtime ownership predicate. · ClineProvider.ts:3877-3884

src/core/webview/ClineProvider.ts:3877-3884
📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Unify the runtime ownership predicate.

isTaskRunningInAnyProvider duplicates the static isTaskRunningInAnyActiveProvider (Line 202). The static helper already scans ClineProvider.activeInstances, which contains this between the constructor and dispose(), so the extra this.taskRegistry.hasRunning term adds no coverage in production.

This predicate is the fail-closed gate for two layers: startup reconciliation receives it through isTaskOwned (Line 360), and runtime recovery calls the instance method. Two definitions of the same safety decision can diverge on a later edit and let one layer recover a chain the other layer treats as live.

Delegate the instance method to the static one so both layers share one definition.

♻️ Proposed refactor
 	private isTaskRunningInAnyProvider(taskId: string): boolean {
-		return (
-			this.taskRegistry.hasRunning(taskId) ||
-			Array.from(ClineProvider.activeInstances).some(
-				(provider) => provider !== this && provider.taskRegistry.hasRunning(taskId),
-			)
-		)
+		return this.taskRegistry.hasRunning(taskId) || ClineProvider.isTaskRunningInAnyActiveProvider(taskId)
 	}

Resolve the TaskHistoryStore constructor conflict with the globalState
write-through removal (Zoo-Code-Org#1664): drop onWrite, keep isTaskOwned.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Treat a missing descendant record as dead only when its task ID has no
  live owner in any provider (isDeadDelegationChain).
- Refresh the delegation chain with TaskHistoryStore.refreshStrict during
  runtime recovery: only a missing file drops the cached record; an
  unreadable, malformed, or mismatched record throws and aborts recovery.
- When disposal cancels delegation after the parent commit, release the
  parent from the deleted child through recoverDelegationParent and
  restore its pending action, without recreating a task on the disposed
  provider.
