- Add council-continuation-enforcer to nudge council members until they
output COUNCIL_MEMBER_RESPONSE, replacing the hacky post-compaction hack
- Add background_wait + background_cancel to council member tool allowlist
so members can properly manage their explore agents before responding
- Update COUNCIL_DELEGATION_ADDENDUM prompt to instruct members to cancel
pending tasks and wait for explore results before final response
- Fix council_finalize path resolution to use project directory
- Remove post-compaction-continuation.ts and recentlyCompactedSessions hack
- Add council-response-checker for detecting response tag in session messages
Council members now use an allow-list (read, grep, glob, lsp_*, ast_grep_search)
instead of a deny-list. Prompt file moved from /tmp/ to .sisyphus/tmp/ so no
external_directory permission is needed. COUNCIL_MEMBER_PROMPT is included in
the temp file for self-contained council member instructions.
Athena saves the analysis prompt to a temp file once, then launches each
council member with a short "Read <path> for your instructions" prompt.
This eliminates repeated prompt text across N task calls while preserving
individual clickable task panes in the TUI.
Fixes from multi-model council audit (7 members, 19 findings, 9 selected):
- Use parseModelString() for cross-provider Anthropic thinking config (#3)
- Update stale AGENTS.md athena directory listing (#4)
- Replace prompt in appendMissingCouncilPrompt instead of appending (#5)
- Extract duplicated session cleanup logic in agent-switch hook (#6)
- Surface skipped council members when >=2 valid members exist (#9)
- Expand fallback handoff regex with negation guards (#11)
- Remove dead council-member agent from agentSources and tests (#12)
- Make runtime council member duplicate check case-insensitive (#14)
- Fix false-positive schema tests by adding required name field (#18)
The hasPendingCouncilMembers guard now matches the 'Council: ' prefix from COUNCIL_MEMBER_KEY_PREFIX instead of the old task.agent === 'council-member' check.

The athena_council tool now waits for all council members to complete and
returns their collected results as markdown, eliminating the need for
Athena to repeatedly call background_output per member (which created
excessive UI noise).
- Add result-collector.ts that polls task status and fetches session content
- Update tool to accept BackgroundOutputClient and return formatted markdown
- Update Athena prompt to remove background_output polling steps
- Rewrite tests for new blocking behavior and markdown output format
After Athena synthesizes council findings, presents user with Question tool
TUI to choose: Atlas (fix now), Prometheus (create plan), or no action.
On selection, session_handoff tool stores intent + calls updateSessionAgent(),
then agent-handoff hook fires on session.idle to switch the main session's
active agent via promptAsync with synthesis context.
- #3354: Coerce data.name to String in loadSkillFromPath/loadSkillFromPathAsync
to prevent crash when YAML parses numeric skill names (e.g., name: 12306)
- #3416: Add required run_in_background parameter to all task() examples in
ultrawork prompts (default, gpt, gemini, planner) to match tool schema
- #3379/#3417/#3418/#3337/#3335: Strip ZWSP (U+200B) before agent name
comparisons in agent-tool-restrictions, sync-prompt-sender, tool-execute-after,
tool-execute-before, oracle-verification-detector, call-omo-agent,
recovery-prompt-config, and agent-variant to prevent ZWSP-prefixed display
names from breaking exact-match lookups
The dedup logic dropped real session.idle events when a synthetic
idle had fired within the dedup window, losing data that downstream
hooks needed. Now real idle events always reach dispatchToHooks while
synthetic duplicates are still dropped when a real event came first.

Extract hardcoded GPT apply_patch permission logic into a reusable module
to ensure consistent behavior across all agents. This prevents GPT models
from using the unreliable apply_patch tool while allowing other models.
- Add gpt-apply-patch-guard.ts with GPT_APPLY_PATCH_GUIDANCE and getGptApplyPatchPermission
- Update Hephaestus agent to use centralized permission logic
- Update Sisyphus-Junior agent to use centralized permission logic
- Update all GPT prompt builders to reference shared guidance constant

The /stop-continuation command was ineffective because the stop-
continuation-guard cleared its stopped state on the very next
chat.message event. Since any user message (including normal chat
after stopping) triggers chat.message, the continuation would
resume immediately.
Root cause: the chat.message handler called clear(sessionID) on
every user message, treating it as a 'user resumed work' signal.
But the user expects /stop-continuation to persist until they
explicitly start work again.
Changes:
- stop-continuation-guard chat.message: no longer clears stop state
- tool-execute-before: /start-work, /ralph-loop, /ulw-loop now
explicitly clear the stop state (so continuation resumes when
user intentionally restarts work)
- Updated and added tests: 12 pass (3 new), 125 related tests pass
Closes#3276
AGENT_LIST_SORT_PREFIXES prepended U+200B Zero Width Space characters
to the four core agent display names so they would sort ahead of user
agents in the Tab cycle. Two problems with that approach surfaced:
1. Some terminal emulators (Ghostty, certain Windows Terminal
builds) render ZWSP as a visible box or extra space, producing a
visible black gap in the status bar before "Sisyphus" and
misaligning the layout (#3259).
2. The prefixes leaked into the plugin API surface via config.agent
keys, breaking prompt_async consumers that received
ZWSP-contaminated agent names (#3238).
#3242 already removed every call site of getAgentListDisplayName() in
production code. That made the sort prefixes dead code: the constant
table was still defined but nothing read it. This PR finishes the
cleanup by:
- Deleting the AGENT_LIST_SORT_PREFIXES constant entirely
- Turning getAgentListDisplayName() into a thin alias over
getAgentDisplayName() for BC with external importers
- Keeping stripAgentListSortPrefix() as a legacy data migration for
users upgrading from v3.14.0-v3.16.0 whose config.agent keys may
still have ZWSP baked in from the old code path
- Documenting the history on stripAgentListSortPrefix() so future
maintainers understand why the stripper has to stay even after
the injector is gone
Sort ordering is preserved via JS object insertion order in
reorderAgentsByPriority() plus the `order` field it injects on the
four core agents. Both mechanisms are already in place and both
pre-date this PR; the ZWSP prefix was an older third layer that was
only meant to work around alphabetical sorting in legacy OpenCode
before the `order` field landed upstream.
Tests: 4445 pass, 0 fail. Added 3 new assertions to
agent-display-names.test.ts verifying that getAgentListDisplayName
returns plain names containing no zero-width characters. Updated
chat-message.test.ts to use a literal ZWSP string instead of the
helper so the defensive-strip path still has coverage.
Closes#3259
- Update plugin-interface.test.ts expectations to use getAgentListDisplayName
- Update chat-message.test.ts expectations for agent display names
- Add smoke test for quoted plan name resolution in chat-message.test.ts
- Aligns test expectations with proper agent name formatting

When users configure agents.sisyphus-junior.model, category sessions
should use that model without falling back to hardcoded
AGENT_MODEL_REQUIREMENTS. Two leaks existed:
1. Launch-time: category-resolver.ts did not check overrideModel when
deciding whether to use the hardcoded fallbackChain. Fixed by adding
overrideModel to the suppression condition.
2. Runtime retry: model-fallback hook.ts treated undefined fallbackChain
(from setSessionFallbackChain(id, undefined)) as 'no override' and
fell through to AGENT_MODEL_REQUIREMENTS on session.error/status
retry. Fixed by storing explicit empty array and checking .has()
instead of truthiness.
Tests added:
- hook.test.ts: explicit empty session fallback suppresses agent chain
- event.model-fallback-2941.test.ts: session.error does not arm retry
- category-resolver.test.ts: overrideModel suppresses fallbackChain
- tools.test.ts: sisyphusJuniorModel override assertion
Display names with parentheses like 'Atlas (Plan Executor)' cause HTTP
header validation errors in x-opencode-agent-name. This was blocking
Atlas/Prometheus from working via /start-work and auto-retry.
Changes:
- Display names: parens -> dashes ('Atlas - Plan Executor')
- Hooks (start-work, no-hephaestus-non-gpt, no-sisyphus-gpt): use
config keys ('atlas', 'sisyphus', 'hephaestus') for agent API fields
- auto-retry: use config key instead of display name for promptAsync
- agent-override-protection: handle dash-suffix normalization
- Updated all test expectations to match new format
Closes#3138
Prevent ZWSP sort prefixes from leaking into stored agent names, config
key lookups, and override-protection normalization. Ensures prefixed
list-display names resolve correctly throughout the pipeline.
