Problem

When a task delegated to a linked environment finished while its parent run's checkpoint capture was committing, delegated_task.remote.complete wrote back the whole parent run row it had read before the capture landed. The parent went back to waiting with completedAt and checkpointId null. The provider turn had finished and the capture had succeeded, so nothing moved the run again, and every queued run on the thread, including the task's own completion notice, stayed blocked. https://git.cafe/pingdotgg/t3code/pulls/20025 fixed this race for local tasks and https://git.cafe/pingdotgg/t3code/pulls/25672 for acknowledgements; the remote result path was left out.

Reproduced on main (e1e520c) with a test that commits the parent's checkpoint capture between the remote result reading the parent run and committing. That is the ordering in the report's timeline.

Change

dispatchRemoteDelegatedTaskComplete now returns the id of the parent run it updates, and the delegated_task.remote.complete case passes it as updateDelegatedCompletionOnlyRunId, as the completion-delivery acknowledge/dispose and notification.delivery.accept commands already do. At commit, the event sink re-reads that run and takes only delegatedCompletion from the event, so a capture that landed in between keeps its status, completedAt and checkpointId. planDelegatedCompletionDelivery changes no other field of the parent run on any branch, so nothing else is lost.

Scope and approval

Fixes #29860

Verification

  • vp test run src/orchestration-v2/RemoteDelegatedTask.test.ts src/orchestration-v2/DelegatedCompletionDelivery.test.ts (from apps/server): 39 passed.

  • New test a delegated task in a linked environment > keeps a parent run that settled between its result's read and commit, run without the Orchestrator.ts change (red on main):

    × keeps a parent run that settled between its result's read and commit 33ms
    AssertionError: expected { status: 'running', …(2) } to deeply equal { status: 'completed', …(2) }
    -   "checkpointId": "checkpoint:settles-mid-result",
    -   "completedAt": "1970-01-01T00:00:00.000Z",
    -   "status": "completed",
    +   "checkpointId": null,
    +   "completedAt": null,
    +   "status": "running",
    Tests  1 failed | 4 passed (5)
    

    With the change: Tests 5 passed (5). The seeded parent is running rather than waiting; the write restores whichever status it read, so a run waiting on its capture comes back as waiting, as in the report.

  • vp run check:changed: passed.

  • Runtime transcript, real remote delegation on this branch (0fd7fb3): two servers built from it with fresh data directories, B linked to A at full access. A Claude parent on A delegated an async task to B and ended its turn; B's result came back as delegated_task.remote.complete and woke the parent. Parent run 1 stayed completed with its checkpointId, its delegatedCompletion was written through the completion-only merge, and the wake ran as run 2:

  • Server-only fix with no visible surface, so there are no captures. Not checked: the race itself between two live servers. In the run above the result arrived about 2.7 s after run 1 completed, outside the window; the test forces the ordering deterministically.

… parent run

The test commits the parent's checkpoint capture between
delegated_task.remote.complete reading the parent run and committing, and
expects the run to stay completed with its completedAt and checkpointId.
On main the remote result writes the stale run row back.

…rent run

delegated_task.remote.complete wrote the parent run row it read at dispatch
start. When the parent's checkpoint capture committed in between, the run went
back to running with no completedAt or checkpointId and the thread deadlocked.

The command now returns the parent run id it updates, as the completion
delivery acknowledge/dispose and notification.delivery.accept commands do, so
the event sink re-reads that run at commit and takes only delegatedCompletion
from the payload.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at cba9a08

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Remote delegated results now use the existing commit-time merge to update completion metadata without overwriting the parent run's latest state. The change is narrowly scoped and preserves existing delivery and stop handling.

Walkthrough

Remote delegated-task completion now passes the affected parent run ID to delegated-completion-only commit handling. A new race-condition test checks that a concurrent parent-run completion retains its status, completion time, and checkpoint ID.

Changes: Remote completion race

Layer / File(s) Summary
Preserve parent completion during remote task settlement
apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Orchestrator.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/RemoteDelegatedTask.test.ts
The remote-completion dispatch passes the parent run ID to delegated-completion-only commit handling. When the task already has a result and the completion is not a stop report, the handler emits the owed-stop update and returns. The test checks that a concurrent parent-run completion retains its completed status, completion time, and checkpoint ID.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~15 minutes

Merge Risk: Low · up to 92930

The change prevents a remote delegated-task result from reverting a parent run that has just completed, and a regression test covers that case. One adjacent ordering remains for settled_only tasks. If the parent completes between planning and commit, the result may be recorded without a follow-up wake. This was not introduced here, but it should be tracked or addressed alongside this fix.

Explanation

Issue #29860 requires remote delegated-task completion to preserve a parent run that settles during checkpoint capture, including its status, completedAt, and checkpointId. The change returns the parent run ID from dispatchRemoteDelegatedTaskComplete and passes it as updateDelegatedCompletionOnlyRunId. The regression test inserts a completed run with completedAt and checkpointId before the remote completion commit, then verifies those fields remain intact. The existing delivery plan continues to create the completion notice; preserving the settled run lets the queued notice start as a new run.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The whole-PR diff changes only Orchestrator.ts and RemoteDelegatedTask.test.ts. The production changes apply the completion-only merge to the remote completion path. The test covers the race in issue #29860. No unrelated changes appear in the whole-PR diff.

Complete the remote race test through completion-message dispatch.

The fixture does not run the continuation worker, and the test stops after delegated_task.remote.complete. It therefore does not exercise the message.dispatch that creates the completion notice run. Assert that the delivery message belongs to a run different from parent.runId while the parent remains completed.

Suggested fix
       assert.deepEqual(
         { status: after.status, completedAt: after.completedAt, checkpointId: after.checkpointId },
         { status: "completed", completedAt: now, checkpointId },
       );
+      const delivery = after.delegatedCompletion!.delivery!;
+      yield* orchestrator.dispatch({

+        commandId: CommandId.make("command:remote-complete-delivery:settles-mid-result"),
+        threadId: parent.threadId,

Major · Functional Correctness · Heavy lift

Recheck settled_only delivery when the parent settles during planning.

If planning reads a running parent and the parent reaches checkpoint completion before the result commits, the plan reserves no delivery. If the blocking wait has ended, the result can remain recorded without a follow-up wake.

Reserve a delivery for this ordering without waking a live blocking wait. Add a regression test for settled_only.

The automated pipeline stopped on this pull request and will not merge it:

the capture step could not show the problem on the base commit, so there is nothing to prove fixed.

Enabled linked environments on both servers and linked them bidirectionally. Launched a Claude parent with instructions to delegate a short asynchronous remote task with completionWake=always, immediately finish with PARENT FINISHED, and acknowledge its completion notice with NOTICE RECEIVED. Repeated the unchanged prompt for 12 launches per commit. Sent subsequent messages on both sides. Read isolated runtime projections without modifying them. Remote results arrived in 10 base attempts and 7 head attempts; all launched parent runs eventually completed with completion timestamps and checkpoints. No completed-parent regression was observed.

It stays open for a person to finish or close.
