Require the latest assistant tool-wait turn itself to be stale before a shouldReply parent wake can bypass tool-call deferral. This prevents an all-complete background wake from forking a second parent prompt loop when OpenCode has repaired the tail to a synthetic user message.

Background fallback retry notifications were queued as bare internal user messages, so OpenCode could treat the notification as a new default-agent turn. Reuse the same parent prompt context resolver used by completion notifications for retrying and retry-ready wakes, and pin regression coverage for Hephaestus parent sessions plus missing-context fallbacks.
When a background subagent emits [ALL BACKGROUND TASKS COMPLETE], the
plugin queues a parent-wake that ultimately calls
dispatchInternalPrompt against the parent session. If the user submits
a new prompt inside the ~250 ms post-dispatch hold window, both writes
land on the same OpenCode session-storage file at the same instant.
OpenCode's @parcel/watcher (which the plugin itself does not depend on,
but does indirectly trigger) batches those events into a TSFN callback
and dispatches them into a JS env that the renderer has just torn down
because the session view re-mounted around the user's new message ->
napi_fatal_error / SIGABRT on macOS arm64. Removing the plugin removes
the parent-wake, which is why removing OmO eliminates the crash.
Mitigation:
- Before flushPendingParentWake calls dispatchInternalPrompt, inspect
the parent session's message tail. If the most recent message is a
user message added inside PARENT_WAKE_USER_MESSAGE_IN_PROGRESS_WINDOW_MS
(default 2_000 ms), reschedule instead of dispatching. The user's own
prompt will drive the model; queued notifications will be re-flushed
on the next idle.
- Best-effort unref() of the long-lived pending-retry and dispatched-
wake bookkeeping setTimeouts. They previously pinned the host event
loop and prolonged the teardown window during which the watcher race
can fire.
The new option userMessageInProgressWindowMs is wired through
BackgroundManager via a module-level constant and is independently
testable.
Regression test parent-wake-user-message-race.test.ts covers:
- fresh user message -> dispatch deferred
- latest message is assistant -> dispatch proceeds
- user message older than window -> dispatch proceeds
- window=0 disables the guard
This is a surface-level mitigation of the most-likely root cause from
the audit; a deeper fix (singleton guard against plugin
double-instantiation under @opencode-ai/plugin@local reload, dispose
lifecycle for OpenCode plugin reload) is out of scope here.
