When background research completes, g3 now immediately prints a status
message instead of waiting for the next user interaction:
- Added ResearchCompletionNotification and broadcast channel to
PendingResearchManager for push-based notifications
- Added spawn_research_notification_handler() in interactive mode that
listens for completions in a background task
- When idle (at prompt): clears line, prints status, reprints prompt
- When busy (processing): prints status inline (interleaving is fine)
- Added G3Status::research_complete() for consistent formatting
- Added enable_research_notifications() method to Agent
Output format: "g3: 1 research report ... [done]"
The research tool now spawns the scout agent in a background tokio task
and returns immediately with a research_id placeholder. This allows the
agent to continue working while research runs (30-120 seconds).
Key changes:
- New PendingResearchManager for tracking async research tasks
- research tool returns immediately with placeholder containing research_id
- research_status tool to check progress of pending research
- Auto-injection of completed research at natural break points:
- Start of each tool iteration (before LLM call)
- Before prompting user in interactive mode
- /research CLI command to list all research tasks
- Updated system prompt to explain async behavior
The agent can:
- Continue with other work while research runs
- Check status with research_status tool
- Yield turn to user if results are critical before continuing
When users type prompts in interactive mode, the input is now
reformatted in place with enhanced highlighting:
- ALL CAPS words (2+ chars) become bold green (e.g., FIX, BUG, HTTP2)
- Quoted text ("..." or ...) becomes cyan
- Standard markdown formatting is also supported
New module: input_formatter.rs with 10 unit tests
Integrated into interactive.rs for both single-line and multiline input
- Add CommonFlags struct to group flags that apply across all modes
- Refactor run_agent_mode() to accept CommonFlags instead of individual params
- Add project loading logic for agent chat mode
- Add integration tests for --project with agent mode
This refactor prevents future bugs where new flags work in one mode
but are forgotten in another.
README.md is no longer auto-loaded into the LLM context at startup.
This saves ~4,600 tokens per session while AGENTS.md and memory.md
still provide all critical information for code tasks.
Changes:
- Delete read_project_readme() function
- Remove readme_content parameter from combine_project_content()
- Rename extract_readme_heading() -> extract_project_heading()
- Rename Agent constructors: *_with_readme_* -> *_with_project_context_*
- Update context preservation to only check for Agent Configuration
- Remove has_readme field from LoadedContent
- Update all tests to use new markers and function names
The LLM can still read README.md on-demand via read_file when needed.
Adds a new --project <PATH> flag that loads project files (brief.md,
contacts.yaml, status.md) at startup, similar to the /project command
but WITHOUT auto-executing the project status prompt.
Changes:
- Add --project flag to cli_args.rs
- Add load_and_validate_project() helper in project.rs (shared by both
--project flag and /project command)
- Modify run_interactive() to accept optional initial_project parameter
- Wire up --project in lib.rs to load project before interactive mode
- Refactor /project command to use shared helper (reduces duplication)
- Add 4 new tests for load_and_validate_project()
- Add GeminiProvider with streaming and native tool calling
- Support gemini-2.5-pro, gemini-2.0-flash, gemini-1.5-pro/flash models
- Model-specific context window detection (1M-2M tokens)
- Message conversion: assistant -> model role mapping
- System messages extracted to system_instruction field
- Tool schema conversion with functionCall/functionResponse parts
- SSE streaming with JSON array buffer parsing
- 8 unit tests for conversion and parsing logic
- Register provider in g3-core and validate in g3-cli
- Use global OnceLock for llama.cpp backend to prevent BackendAlreadyInitialized error
- Suppress verbose llama.cpp stderr logging during model loading
- Fix provider validation to accept "embedded.name" format (extract type before dot)
Both multiline and single-line input paths in interactive.rs had identical
code for:
- Template processing (process_template)
- Task execution (execute_task_with_retry)
- Auto-memory reminder with error handling
Extracted to a single execute_user_input() helper function that handles
all three steps. This eliminates code-path aliasing where the two paths
could drift over time.
File reduced from 401 to 393 lines (-2%).
All 106 g3-cli tests pass.
Agent: fowler
Convert remaining ✅ emoji status messages in g3-cli to use the
consistent G3Status formatting system:
- accumulative.rs: 'autonomous run ... [done]'
- commands.rs /clear: 'clearing session ... [done]'
- commands.rs /readme: 'reloading README ... [done/failed/error]'
- commands.rs /unproject: 'unloading project ... [done]'
This provides a consistent 'g3: action ... [status]' format across
all CLI status messages.
Implement highlight_prompt() in G3Helper to colorize the project portion
of the prompt in blue. This uses rustyline's proper mechanism for ANSI
codes in prompts, which correctly handles cursor positioning.
Prompt 'butler | finances> ' now shows '| finances>' in blue.
ANSI color codes in rustyline prompts cause various issues:
- \x01...\x02 markers break cursor movement
- Separate prefix printing causes gaps or disappearing text
Simplified to plain text prompt: 'butler | finances> '
This ensures reliable cursor positioning and tab completion.
Previously used empty string as readline prompt after printing colored
prefix, which caused cursor positioning issues (large gap between
project name and cursor).
Now the prefix contains 'butler | finances' (colored) and readline
gets '> ' as its prompt, so cursor appears immediately after '> '.
Rustyline's \x01...\x02 markers for ANSI codes didn't work correctly,
causing cursor positioning issues and breaking line editing.
New approach: build_prompt() returns (prefix, prompt) tuple where:
- prefix: colored text printed before readline (contains ANSI codes)
- prompt: plain text passed to readline (no ANSI codes)
This ensures rustyline correctly calculates line length while still
showing the colored project name.
When a project is loaded via /project, the prompt now shows:
agent_name |[project_name]>
where the |[project_name]> part is displayed in blue.
Examples:
- Default: g3>
- With project: g3 |[myapp]>
- Agent mode: butler>
- Agent + project: butler |[myapp]>
The prompt automatically resets when /unproject is called.
Added build_prompt() function with 7 unit tests covering all prompt states.
Remove duplicate logging initialization in agent_mode.rs. Logging is already
initialized in run() before agent mode is dispatched. The duplicate
tracing_subscriber::fmt::layer() was interfering with rustyline's terminal
state, breaking tab completion.
Rename all references from "Project Memory" to "Workspace Memory" to avoid
future conflation if a "project" concept is introduced later.
Changes:
- Rename read_project_memory() -> read_workspace_memory()
- Update all prompts, tool descriptions, and comments
- Update header parsing in memory.rs to use "# Workspace Memory"
- Update display detection for "=== Workspace Memory ==="
- Update documentation and analysis/memory.md
11 files changed, ~36 occurrences updated.
Warnings fixed:
- Remove unused 'warn' import from retry.rs
- Prefix unused 'output' param with underscore
- Prefix unused 'rel_start' with underscore
- Add #[allow(dead_code)] to G3Status::info()
Message format tweaked per feedback:
- 'g3: model overloaded [error]' (no attempt info)
- 'g3: retrying in 2.2s (1/3) ... [done]' (attempt info moved here)
- Handle empty error message in Status::Error to show just '[error]'
Agent prompt files (both workspace agents/<name>.md and embedded)
now support template variables like {{today}}.
This allows agent definitions to include dynamic content:
# My Agent
Today is {{today}}. Your mission is...
Replace '📄 Context dumped to: <filename>' with 'g3: context dumped to <filename> [done]'
where g3: is bold green, filename is cyan, and [done] is bold green.
Add G3Status::complete_with_path() method for status messages with highlighted paths.
Supports {{var}} syntax for variable substitution in included prompt files.
Currently supported variables:
- {{today}}: Current date in ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD)
Unknown variables trigger a warning and are left unchanged.
- Add template.rs module with process_template() function
- Integrate template processing into read_include_prompt()
- Add comprehensive tests for template processing
- Extract handle_command() from interactive.rs to new commands.rs module
(320 lines, 15 match arms for /help, /compact, /thinnify, etc.)
- Fix orphaned tests in completion.rs that were outside mod tests block
- Add #[allow(dead_code)] to with_include_prompt_filename() (used in tests)
- interactive.rs reduced from 595 to 290 lines
Agent: fowler
Created display.rs module with shared display functions:
- format_workspace_path() / print_workspace_path()
- LoadedContent struct for tracking loaded project files
- print_loaded_status() for status line display
- print_project_heading() for README heading
Updated interactive.rs and agent_mode.rs to use the new module,
eliminating duplicated workspace path formatting and loaded items
status line logic.
Results:
- interactive.rs: 641 → 595 lines (-46)
- agent_mode.rs: 312 → 288 lines (-24)
- New display.rs: 197 lines with 5 unit tests
Agent: fowler
The --acd flag was being checked AFTER the agent mode early return,
so it was never applied when running with --agent.
Fix: Pass acd_enabled parameter to run_agent_mode() and call
agent.set_acd_enabled(true) when the flag is set.
Always shows at most 8 sessions in tab completion, sorted by newest first.
This applies whether the user types /resume <TAB> or /resume abc<TAB>.
Implementation:
- list_sessions() returns all sessions sorted by mtime (newest first)
- Completion filters by prefix, then takes first 8 matches
Phase 2 of tab completion: semantic completion for session IDs.
Features:
- /resume <TAB> lists all available sessions from .g3/sessions/
- /resume abc<TAB> filters to sessions starting with 'abc'
- Gracefully returns empty if .g3/sessions/ doesn't exist
Implementation:
- Added list_sessions() helper method to G3Helper
- Added Case 4 in complete() for /resume command
- Updated module docs to reflect new capability
Tests:
- test_resume_completion_lists_sessions - verifies listing and filtering
- test_resume_completion_graceful_no_panic - verifies no crash without sessions dir
Verifies that tab completion correctly ignores:
- Bare quotes: "<TAB> - no path prefix, no completion
- Quoted non-paths: "hello world<TAB> - not a path, no completion
- Quoted text without path prefix: "foo<TAB> - no completion
Also fixes test placement (moved tests inside mod tests block)
Edge cases now handled:
1. Unclosed quotes: "~/My <TAB> - completes paths inside quotes
2. Backslash escapes: ~/My\ <TAB> - unescapes before completing
3. Closed quotes: "~/My Files/"<TAB> - works correctly
Key changes:
- extract_word() now tracks backslash escapes (prev_was_backslash)
- is_path_prefix() strips leading quotes before checking
- Added strip_quotes() and unescape_path() helper methods
- complete() now:
- Strips quotes and unescapes paths before calling FilenameCompleter
- Re-wraps completions in quotes or escapes as appropriate
- Preserves user's quoting style (double vs single quotes)
- Uses backslash escapes if user was already using them
Tests added:
- test_actual_completion_with_quotes - verifies all three edge cases
Path completion now works for:
- ./<TAB> - current directory
- ../<TAB> - parent directory
- ~/<TAB> - home directory
- /<TAB> (not at start of line) - root directory
Command completion (/<TAB>) only triggers at the start of the line.
If no command matches, falls through to path completion (e.g., /etc).
Quote-aware word extraction handles paths with spaces:
- "~/My Files/<TAB>" works correctly
Added tests for:
- Path prefix detection
- Word extraction with quotes
- Command vs path disambiguation
