Problem

A successful Codex worktree handoff detaches the old provider session, but the old run is then recorded as interrupted. On Linux web, a real handoff and automatic continuation succeeded while the timeline still showed a red “Run interrupted · Stopped by the provider” divider.

Change

Treat an interrupted provider turn as completed when its thread moved to another workspace, using the normal checkpoint and continuation path. Keep the raw interruption for native-child cleanup so detached children do not remain running. Check for an unpaired Stop request inside the terminal-write transaction; a concurrent Stop retains the interrupted outcome and its attribution.

Scope and approval

Fixes #24513
GitCafe: https://git.cafe/pingdotgg/t3code/issues/24513

Triaged bug via the automated issue flow. Shared server lifecycle fix; no client, contract, setting, or persisted-field changes. The existing attribution fix remains untouched.

Verification

• Red first: the handoff integration test failed on main because the run settled as interrupted. It now asserts completed, a checkpoint, the new worktree binding, and no interrupt-result item.
• Added regressions for native-child terminal cleanup and a Stop committed during handoff finalization. The real SQLite guard test failed with the guard disabled and passes with it enabled.
• Final merged head: 159/159 tests passed across RunExecutionService, FoundationPersistence, SelectionRestart.integration, ProviderTurnStartService, BackgroundWorkStop.integration, and ProviderEventIngestor. Test output.
• Scoped server typecheck passed; targeted lint passed with existing warnings outside changed lines. Two independent final code reviews found no blockers.
• Primary integrated check: real Codex GPT-6.1-Sol High handed off once, continued in the target branch with attached: true, and both runs completed with checkpoints and no false interrupted divider.

Evidence: fixture matrix, full index, narrated steps and UTC timestamps, raw bundle, runtime extracts and reproduction helpers.

Each recording starts a real native Codex child running sleep 60, immediately hands the thread off once, and waits for continuation to report its actual cwd, branch and clean status. Before: parent falsely interrupted. After: parent completed, child stopped, continuation succeeded. After recordings also open the settled parent/child details.

Before is historical main 8176b58931, not the final merge base. After is 43cd19866d; intervening main changes affect mobile Markdown, preview certificates and Cursor terminal handling. This set proves runtime behavior, not an isolated pixel comparison.

Linux Chromium 154, DPR 2, 16px root font, desktop UA at both CSS widths. Recordings retain 2880×1600 / 780×1600 pixels; desktop preview stills are downsampled to 1280×711. Stills settled and matched twice at least 500ms apart. Diff0 below is amplified ×8; threshold is explicitly 0, unmasked.

What else changed in the captures: provider prose/capitalization, titles, durations, timestamps, hover controls, folding, spacing and scroll composition vary between independent real runs. The normal completed parent now folds. No claim that nothing else changed visually.

Unverified at runtime: Electron, native mobile, other providers and remote/relay/tunnel modes. The 390-wide captures are responsive web. Shared server projections are covered by the focused tests; client renderers and wire contracts are unchanged. Stop-race and event-ingestion closure are proven by deterministic tests, not live-provider race footage.

Independent proof audit: H/N handoff and native-child runtime rows supported at all four viewport/theme cells; full matrix remains incomplete. Missing explicit controls: recovery-lookup failure, unchanged/same-path workspace callbacks, and changed-workspace non-interrupted terminal variants. The auditor reproduced the settled renderer (transcript pixels matched; 0.131% total delta in header controls), but no uploaded browser replay driver exists for a fresh interaction rebuild. Historical-base and natural transcript differences also prevent an isolated pixel claim. These are pending proof gates; the observed runtime behavior did not contradict the fix.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at cc1cd4d

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Workspace handoffs now settle normally while native subagents remain interrupted. Transactional Stop protection and existing run-ownership checks preserve user cancellation authority.

Walkthrough

Root-run finalization now checks whether the thread’s worktree changed. After a detected move, an interrupted terminal can attempt to complete the run while interrupting open subagents. Conditional writes reject a pending interrupt request without a matching result.

Merge Risk: Low · up to cc1cd

The handoff finalization change looks sound. One new test uses a timeout that does not work under the test clock, so a regression would hang the test rather than fail it cleanly. Fixing it is a small edit and does not block the behavior change.

Explanation

The description includes all required sections: Problem, Change, Scope and approval, and Verification. It explains the bug, implementation, linked issue, test coverage, observed results, and remaining verification limits.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

The changes satisfy issue #24513. RunExecutionService detects an interrupted root turn after a workspace move and attempts the normal completed finalization path. It keeps interrupted cascading for native-child cleanup. EventSink.writeIfRunCurrent atomically rejects completion when an unpaired Stop request exists, so a concurrent Stop keeps the interrupted result and attribution. The tests cover completion, checkpoint and worktree binding, omission of run_interrupt_result, native-child cleanup, and the Stop race.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes stay within issue #24513. The source changes are shared server lifecycle logic in RunExecutionService, EventSink, and ProviderTurnStartService. The added persistence and integration tests verify handoff completion and Stop-race behavior. No unrelated client, contract, setting, or persisted-field changes are shown.

apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/RunExecutionService.test.ts: 1

2693-2694: Trivial · Maintainability & Code Quality · Quick win

Remove the wall-clock timeout from this it.effect test.

This test runs on the TestClock. The Effect.timeoutOption("2 seconds") sleep never advances unless the test calls TestClock.adjust. If ingestion fails to close, the timeout never fires. The test hangs until the project timeout. It does not fail on the assert.isTrue message.

The testing rules say: "A test that needs a timeout to pass is wrong." Await the Deferred directly. A regression then fails at the project timeout, as the rules intend.

Proposed change

-    const closed = yield* Deferred.await(ingestionDone).pipe(Effect.timeoutOption("2 seconds"));
-    assert.isTrue(Option.isSome(closed), "settled children must end event ingestion");
+    // Settled children must end event ingestion; the subscription close completes this Deferred.
+    yield* Deferred.await(ingestionDone);

If Option has no other use in this file, remove the import.

As per path instructions: "Hold changed tests to the rules in docs/internals/testing.md." As per coding guidelines: "No per-test timeout argument or retry" and "A test that needs a timeout to pass is wrong."

Evidence

In the real web app, start a thread in the synthetic Git project's main checkout. Request a handoff to branch handoff-proof from dev, with startFromOrigin: true, runSetupScript: false, and a continuation that checks cwd and branch. Do not press Stop; let the continuation finish.

Both sides used fresh isolated state, the same seed and prompt, Chromium at 1280×800 CSS pixels, and light theme. Runtime model selection was identical; its button was hidden for privacy.

Before recording	After recording

Base moved successfully and completed its continuation, but recorded the previous run as interrupted. Head recorded both runs as completed, without an interrupt-result divider. Both head checkpoints were ready and their Git refs existed. Base also captured checkpoints in this reproduction.

A separate head control pressed Stop during a running command and retained interrupted with “Stopped by user”: recording.

AI-assisted; verified with the tests and tools listed above.

Not shown:

• An explicit absolute sibling destination could not be supplied: neither commit's handoff schema accepts a path, so both used the supported managed worktree destination.
• A Stop racing the handoff and native subagent terminalization were not exercised.
