Summary

A freeform wrapper that #4983 taught the completion path to unwrap still streamed as raw JSON.

src/bridge/sse.ts recognized only the compact {"input":" prefix for partial input. So {"code":"const x = 1"} streamed its JSON bytes through response.custom_tool_call_input.delta and then published const x = 1 in the done item. Concatenated deltas no longer equalled the authoritative input, and a client that renders or accumulates tool input mid-stream had to rewind.

input stays progressive. unwrapFreeformToolInput returns it whenever the key is present, whatever else the object carries, so its value is decidable from the prefix and can never be retracted. That path is unchanged.

A fallback key is not decidable that way. It unwraps only when it is the single string field, and a second key can still arrive — so a value emitted early would have to be taken back, which is the same rewind one step earlier. Those buffers are held until the object closes and then published once. This is the shape the routed passthrough already uses: responses-custom-tool-repair.ts holds any object prefix for an exec item for exactly this reason, which is why that path did not have the defect.

One thing the fix had to match rather than invent: repairFreeformToolInput drops the tool name for a namespaced tool that does not own the apply-patch grammar. The streaming side now drops it on the same condition. Streaming under a vocabulary the completed item does not use would be the same disagreement in the other direction, and it would have been introduced by this change rather than found by it.

Closes #5047.

Verification

Five cases in tests/adapters/bridge.test.ts, written against the delta stream and the completed item together, because the defect was that the two disagreed.

  • Delta concatenation equals the completed input for every accepted fallback key: code, script, js, javascript, command, cmd, content.
  • A wrapper split at every byte boundary — all sixteen cuts of {"code":"a\nb"} — never leaks raw JSON and never rewinds.
  • An ambiguous multi-field object stays unrepaired and byte-exact, and so does a non-string value, which never matched {"code":" and therefore was never held. The second half pins that ordinary bodies keep streaming immediately rather than waiting for the object to close.
  • The canonical input wrapper still streams progressively, asserted by requiring more than one delta, so a future change cannot quietly convert it to holding.
  • A stream that dies inside a held wrapper emits no deltas and produces no completed custom_tool_call. The held buffer is suppressed output, never content.

Out of scope, recorded rather than fixed. An input value that is itself a fenced block still streams its fence characters and is stripped at completion. That is a pre-existing divergence on dev, it is not one of the regressions this issue names, and closing it means either holding every input body that opens with a fence or retracting an emitted value. It deserves its own reasoning.

Hosted CI on this branch is the check; no local suite was run.

Checklist

  • Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup.
  • Docs or release notes were updated when needed.
  • Security-sensitive changes were reviewed for secrets, auth, and unsafe defaults.

No credential, auth, workflow, or release surface is touched. The change only suppresses preview deltas and never widens what reaches the authoritative completed item, so it cannot admit content a client would otherwise not have received.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved streaming of freeform tool inputs across supported input formats.
    • Prevented partial or ambiguous input from displaying incomplete, duplicated, or raw wrapper data.
    • Ensured completed tool-call input consistently matches the streamed content.
    • Preserved progressive streaming for the standard input format.
    • Prevented incomplete streams from producing unintended output or completed tool calls.

#4983 widened what counts as a freeform wrapper at completion. Partial input
streaming still knew only the compact `{"input":"` form, so a wrapper such as
`{"code":"const x = 1"}` streamed as raw JSON through
`response.custom_tool_call_input.delta` and then finished with the unwrapped
body. Concatenated deltas no longer equalled the authoritative input, and a
client that renders or accumulates tool input mid-stream had to rewind.

`input` stays progressive: `unwrapFreeformToolInput` returns it whenever the
key is present, whatever else the object carries, so its value is decidable
from the prefix and can never be retracted.

A fallback key is not decidable that way. It unwraps only when it is the single
string field, and a second key can still arrive, so a value emitted early would
have to be taken back. Those buffers are held until the object closes and then
published once. The routed passthrough in `responses-custom-tool-repair.ts`
already holds any object prefix for the same reason.

The streaming side also drops the tool name for a namespaced tool that does not
own the apply-patch grammar, because `repairFreeformToolInput` drops it at
completion; streaming under a vocabulary the completed item does not use is the
same disagreement in the other direction.

Closes #5047.

Explanation

Issue #5047 requires delta concatenation to equal the completed, repaired input for every accepted fallback key. src/bridge/sse.ts now holds fallback objects until JSON.parse succeeds, but freeformPartialInput returns unwrapFreeformToolInput(args, toolName) for a completed fallback object. It does not apply repairFreeformToolInput or normalizeApplyPatchDelimiters. The completed path uses repairFreeformToolInput in the same file. Therefore an accepted apply_patch fallback such as {"patch":"*** Begin Patch ***\n*** Add File: a\n...\n*** End Patch ***"} can stream the decorated body and complete with normalized delimiters. The new tests in tests/adapters/bridge.test.ts cover the seven exec fallback keys, but they do not establish parity for the accepted apply_patch keys patch and content. The buffering, byte-boundary, ambiguity, canonical input, and interrupted-stream coverage otherwise addresses the stated requirements.

Resolution

Make fallback streaming use the same namespace-aware repair logic as completion. Pass the namespace or an equivalent repair callback into freeformPartialInput, and apply repairFreeformToolInput after the fallback object parses before emitting the held value. Add regression tests for apply_patch.patch and apply_patch.content, including decorated patch delimiters and byte-boundary splits, and verify that concatenated deltas equal the completed item.

이 PR은 #4983이 완료(completion) 경로에서 넓혀 준 freeform 래퍼를, 스트리밍 미리보기 경로에도 같은 규칙으로 맞추는 수정이다. 지금 devsrc/bridge/sse.ts는 부분 입력(partial input)을 풀 때 거의 딱 한 가지 모양만 안다. 바로 짧은 접두사 {"input":" 이다. 그래서 {"code":"const x = 1"}처럼 #4983이 완료 시점에 풀어 주기로 한 대체 키 래퍼는, 스트림 중에는 response.custom_tool_call_input.delta로 JSON 글자 그대로 흘러가고, 끝난 뒤에는 본문만 const x = 1로 남는다. 중간까지 이어 붙인 델타와 최종 입력이 달라져서, 미리보기를 그리는 클라이언트가 한 번 되감기를 해야 한다. 이슈 #5047이 그 불일치를 적어 둔 것이고, 이 PR이 그걸 닫는다.

고친 방법은 단순하다. input 키는 접두사만 봐도 값이 확정된다. unwrapFreeformToolInput이 그 키가 있으면 다른 필드가 있어도 input을 고르기 때문이다. 그래서 예전처럼 이스케이프를 풀어 가며 조금씩 내보낸다. 반면 code / script 같은 대체 키는 ‘문자열 필드가 딱 하나일 때만’ 풀린다. 두 번째 키가 나중에 올 수 있어서, 일찍 풀어 버리면 다시 거둬들여야 한다. 그래서 대체 키로 보이는 버퍼는 JSON이 닫힐 때까지 붙잡고, 닫힌 뒤에 unwrapFreeformToolInput 한 번으로 낸다. 라우티드 패스스루 responses-custom-tool-repair.ts가 객체 접두사를 붙잡는 이유와 같다.

키 목록은 src/responses/apply-patch-envelope.tsFREEFORM_FALLBACK_KEYSfreeformFallbackKeys()로 내보내서 스트리밍과 완료가 같은 표를 보게 했다. 네임스페이스가 원격 도구라 apply-patch 문법을 갖지 않으면 도구 이름을 비우는 조건도 repairFreeformToolInput과 맞춰 두었다. 스트림만 다른 어휘를 쓰면 이번엔 반대 방향의 불일치가 생기기 때문이다. 테스트는 델타 이어붙임 = done/item 입력, 바이트 경계로 자른 래퍼, 다중 필드·비문자열은 그대로, input은 계속 점진 스트림, 중간에 죽은 홀드 버퍼는 완료 호출을 만들지 않음까지 다섯 갈래로 #5047 회귀를 묶어 두었다.

현재 dev 방향(1be5cb3d8, tip #5039 커맨드코드 deepseek 네이티브 이미지, #5026 서비스 env 바인딩, #5038 cold-spawn 워밍)과 겹치지 않는다. 옆집 #5051/#5052는 code-mode apply_patch가 ‘인식한 본문’으로 컴파일되게 맞추는 인식/컴파일 불일치이고, 이번 PR은 SSE 미리보기와 완료 아이템의 표현 불일치다. 둘 다 #4983 후속이지 서로 대체하지는 않는다. 패키지는 여전히 2.59.0이다.

라인 tests/adapters/bridge.test.ts FALLBACK_KEYS - exec 키만 돌린다. apply_patch 대체 키(patch, content) 스트림 홀드/언랩은 같은 freeformFallbackKeys 경로인데 회귀 핀이 없다.
라인 src/bridge/sse.ts freeformPartialInput(input 경로) - 본문이 펜스인 input 값은 스트림에 펜스 글자가 나가고 완료에서 strip 된다. PR이 범위 밖으로 적어 둔 기존 dev 분기고, 고치려면 모든 펜스 시작 input을 홀드하거나 이미 보낸 값을 거둬들여야 한다.
경로 src/responses/apply-patch-envelope.ts freeformFallbackKeys - 단일 출처 export는 맞고, 스트리밍이 이 목록을 안 쓰면 다시 #5047이 열린다. 테스트가 exec에만 묶여 있으면 apply_patch 쪽 회귀가 silent로 남을 수 있다.

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

  • apply_patch의 patch/content 스트림 케이스를 이 PR에 얹을지, 후속으로 둘지
  • input 펜스 미리보기 분기를 별도 이슈로 열지(PR이 범위 밖으로 기록한 항목)
  • CI만으로 충분한지(로컬 스위트는 돌리지 않았다고 본문에 적힘)

너의 추천
CI 초록이면 머지해서 #5047을 닫는다. 가능하면 apply_patch 대체 키에 대한 짧은 스트림 테스트를 한 줄이라도 얹고, input 펜스 분기는 새 이슈로 남겨 둔다. #5051/#5052와 충돌하지 않으니 병렬로 둬도 된다.

P2 Badge Hold fallback wrappers with valid JSON formatting

When an accepted wrapper uses legal JSON whitespace, leading whitespace, or places another property before the fallback key—for example { "code" : "const x = 1" }—none of these compact prefixes matches, so this branch streams the raw JSON. Completion still passes the same text through JSON.parse in unwrapFreeformToolInput and publishes only the code value, leaving the delta/completed-input rewind that this change is intended to prevent. Hold potential JSON objects until completion or make detection tolerate all JSON formatting accepted by the completion path.

P2 Badge Apply the full repair before emitting fallback input

For a bare or functions-namespaced apply_patch call such as {"patch":"*** Begin Patch ***\n*** Update File: ...\n*** End Patch ***"}, this emits the merely unwrapped, decorated patch while closeCurrentToolCall later uses repairFreeformToolInput and normalizes the delimiters. Consequently the concatenated deltas still disagree with the authoritative completed input for an explicitly supported fallback wrapper; use the same repair routine here or keep the value held.

Align streaming detection with completion fallback handling.

unwrapFreeformToolInput unwraps an object when it has input, or when exactly one fallback key (code, script, js, javascript, command, cmd, or content) has a string value. Whitespace and unrelated fields do not prevent this. Multiple string-valued fallback keys do prevent it.

freeformPartialInput only recognizes compact prefixes such as {"code":". A value such as { "code": "x" } or {"meta":1,"code":"x"} therefore emits raw JSON deltas, while completion emits x. The concatenated SSE deltas then differ from the completed tool input. Objects with multiple fallback keys do not trigger this mismatch because completion leaves them unchanged.

Make streaming use the same wrapper classification as unwrapFreeformToolInput, while preserving raw output for objects that completion does not unwrap. Add regressions for whitespace, unrelated fields before a fallback key, and multiple fallback keys.
