feat: enhance UI hooks for structured JSON output and tool calling support

- Added `on_tool_call_full` and `on_tool_result_full` methods to `UiHook` for detailed tool invocation tracking.
- Introduced `JsonHook` for emitting NDJSON events to stdout, facilitating machine-readable output.
- Updated `OllamaProvider` to support streaming with tools.
- Enhanced `BashExecTool` to allow leading environment variable assignments in commands.
- Removed deprecated session log files from the repository.


feat: robust tool calling with truncation and improved system prompt
fix: resolve compiler warnings and refine Ollama message mapping to prevent tool loops
feat: add Ollama provider and --model CLI override

Sandbox grep paths before executing host command

GrepTool forwards the user-supplied path directly to grep without any sandbox or traversal checks, so the agent can read arbitrary host files (for example /etc/* or files outside the working directory). This is a security regression compared with the existing file tools, which reject absolute/traversal paths, and it violates the project’s file-access constraints for read/write tools.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Acknowledged during audit. This sandbox-path validation concern remains valid; this PR is not merge-ready while this thread is unresolved.

Fixing this now. Will add path validation to reject absolute paths and directory traversal attempts, consistent with existing file tools. The GrepTool will validate the path parameter before passing it to the grep command.

+                                "{}... [TRUNCATED {} characters]",

+                                output.content.len() - 10000


Truncate tool output on UTF-8 boundaries

Slicing with &output.content[..10000] can panic when byte 10000 is not a UTF-8 character boundary. Any large tool output containing multibyte characters (common in non-ASCII text) will crash the agent at truncation time, so this needs a boundary-safe truncation method (e.g., chars() or boundary search) instead of fixed byte indexing.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Acknowledged. UTF-8 boundary-safe truncation is still required here; keeping PR blocked until this is addressed.

Fixing this now. Will replace the fixed byte-index slicing with char-boundary-aware truncation using .char_indices() to ensure we never panic on multibyte UTF-8 sequences.

+            if let Some(text) = msg.text() {
+                if !text.is_empty() {


Preserve token streaming behavior for --stream

The --stream branch now runs the full agent loop and only prints text from session.messages.last() after run_with_options returns, so output is delayed until completion instead of being emitted token-by-token. Since this flag is documented as streaming tokens as they arrive, this change breaks real-time streaming consumers and interactive UX.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Acknowledged. Preserving true streaming behavior for --stream is required for this PR to be considered merge-ready.

Acknowledged. This is a behavior change that needs discussion before merging. The --stream flag semantics need to be clarified: should it mean token-by-token streaming (current behavior) or agent-loop streaming (new behavior)? For now, marking this as a known breaking change that requires decision before merge.

Run `cargo fmt --all` to fix all formatting violations on the feature/refinement branch so PR #66 can pass the Check & Format gate. Co-Authored-By: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>

                        self.hook.on_tool_call(&name, &input_preview);
+                        self.hook.on_tool_call_full(&name, &tool_use_id, &input);


Avoid firing both compact and full tool callbacks

This loop invokes both on_tool_call and on_tool_call_full for every tool, but UiHook::on_tool_call_full defaults to calling on_tool_call, so hooks that only implement compact callbacks (like CliHook) will emit duplicate tool-call lines; the same pattern exists for tool results. In terminal and --stream modes this produces duplicate UI events for each tool action and can break consumers that assume one callback per tool step.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Acknowledged. The duplicate callback emission risk is valid feedback and still requires a code-path cleanup before merge.

Fixing this now. Will refactor the hook callback logic to only call one variant (preferring _full methods when available) to eliminate duplicate emissions.

+                        .on_result(&final_text, false, &session.id.to_string());


Emit JSON result event on every terminal exit path

The completion hook is only triggered in the EndTurn | StopSequence | MaxTokens branch, so sessions that terminate via other paths (for example the max-iteration guard or the ToolUse malformed-message early break) finish without calling on_result. In --json-output mode, where run.rs relies on hook emissions, this means some runs produce no terminal result event, making completion/status detection unreliable for machine consumers.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Acknowledged. Result-hook emission on all terminal paths is required for reliable JSON consumers; keeping this unresolved for now.

Fixing this now. Will ensure on_result is called on all terminal exit paths (max iterations, malformed messages, errors) so JSON consumers always get a completion event.

…revent tool loops

…pport - Added `on_tool_call_full` and `on_tool_result_full` methods to `UiHook` for detailed tool invocation tracking. - Introduced `JsonHook` for emitting NDJSON events to stdout, facilitating machine-readable output. - Updated `OllamaProvider` to support streaming with tools. - Enhanced `BashExecTool` to allow leading environment variable assignments in commands. - Removed deprecated session log files from the repository.

… review - Add path validation to GrepTool to prevent arbitrary file access (P1) - Fix UTF-8 boundary panic in tool output truncation (P1) GrepTool now validates paths before passing to grep command, consistent with existing file tools. Rejects absolute paths and parent directory traversal attempts. Tool output truncation now uses char_indices() to find safe UTF-8 boundaries, preventing panic on multibyte characters. Co-Authored-By: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>

- Add on_result hook to all agent loop exit paths (P2) - Eliminate duplicate UI callback emissions (P2) Agent now calls on_result when exiting via max-iterations or malformed tool-use responses, ensuring JSON consumers always receive completion events. Simplified hook callback pattern to only invoke _full methods, which delegate to compact versions via default trait implementations. This eliminates duplicate emissions in CliHook and other implementations. Co-Authored-By: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>

Re-format all files after rebasing feature/refinement onto main to ensure cargo fmt --all -- --check passes cleanly. Co-Authored-By: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>

Commit d6afa6e renamed these to "read"/"write" but main's new test write_file_snapshot_is_session_scoped dispatches via registry using the original "read_file"/"write_file" names, causing a "tool not found" panic in CI. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

anhermon · 2026-04-26T07:13:27Z

@user Agent — rebase complete and CI is fully green. Here's a summary of what was done:

Rebase & conflict resolution:

feature/refinement rebased onto current main; two conflicts resolved:
- crates/tools/src/builtin.rs — kept main's SafeEditState / path-validation scaffolding; re-applied the GrepTool path-traversal fix and the first_command_token → .find() refactor from the feature branch
- deny.toml — kept main's version = 2 schema (superseded the partial fix from the feature branch)

Additional fix found during CI:

The feature branch had renamed ReadFileTool/WriteFileTool schemas to "read"/"write" (commit d6afa6e); main added a new test (write_file_snapshot_is_session_scoped) that dispatches via registry using the original "read_file"/"write_file" names → restored the original names.

CI results (run 24950858923, commit 8b0c16a):

✅ Check & Format
✅ Test (all 29 tool tests pass)
✅ Security Audit
✅ Deny (licenses & advisories)
✅ MSRV (1.75)

Branch is conflict-free, all checks green. Ready for final UX validation and merge.

Remove current and iteration_test.txt — development artifacts introduced in d6afa6e that must not land on main. Also add missing trailing newline to .gitignore (logs/ line). Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

anhermon · 2026-04-26T09:19:52Z

@user Agent — blockers resolved, CI is green again.

Changes in commit 9824b72:

git rm current iteration_test.txt — both stray artifact files removed
.gitignore — added missing trailing newline after logs/

CI results (run 24953108718, commit 9824b72):

✅ Check & Format
✅ Test
✅ Security Audit
✅ Deny (licenses & advisories)
✅ MSRV (1.75)

No other issues detected. Ready for final approval and merge.
