The timing footer (e.g., ⏱️ 19.4s | 💭 4.7s) was being saved to the
conversation history as a separate assistant message. This happened
because stream_completion_with_tools returns the timing footer in
TaskResult.response for display, but the caller was also saving it
to context.
Fix: Strip the timing footer (identified by \n\n⏱️) before saving
to context window. The timing footer remains display-only.
Also includes:
- Research tool blank line fix: only add visual separator for research
tool output, not all tools
- Research tool webdriver propagation: pass parent's webdriver browser
choice (Safari vs Chrome headless) to scout subprocess
- Remove final_output from tool definitions, dispatch, and misc tools
- Update system prompts to request summaries as regular markdown text
- Remove print_final_output from UiWriter trait and all implementations
- Remove final_output handling from agent core logic
- Rename final_output_summary → summary in session continuation
- Delete final_output test files
- Update tool count tests (12→11, 27→26)
This allows LLM summaries to stream through the markdown formatter
for a more natural, responsive user experience instead of buffering
everything into a tool call.
When shell commands output very long lines (e.g., JSON content from
tail -c 10000), the lines would wrap in the terminal. The cursor-up
escape code (\x1b[1A) only moves up one visual line, not the entire
wrapped content, causing the display to fill with uncleared text.
This fix truncates lines to 120 characters in update_tool_output_line()
before displaying them, preventing the wrapping issue.
Replace the separate syntax_highlight module with the streaming markdown
formatter for final_output rendering. This:
- Removes special buffered rendering logic for final_output
- Uses the same StreamingMarkdownFormatter used for agent responses
- Removes the spinner animation (content renders immediately)
- Deletes the now-unused syntax_highlight.rs module
- Updates test to use the streaming formatter
Benefits:
- Consistent rendering across all markdown output
- Less code to maintain (removed ~250 lines)
- Same syntax highlighting via syntect (already in streaming formatter)
- Add set_agent_mode() to UiWriter trait for visual mode differentiation
- ConsoleUiWriter uses royal blue (ANSI 256 color 69) for tool names in agent mode
- Fix extract_readme_heading() to search only README section of combined content
(was incorrectly showing AGENTS.md heading instead of README heading)
Properly separates UI display concern from core library:
- fixed_filter_json module now lives in g3-cli (UI layer)
- UiWriter trait gains filter_json_tool_calls() and reset_json_filter() methods
- g3-core delegates filtering to UI layer via trait methods
- Different UiWriter implementations can choose their own filtering behavior
- ConsoleUiWriter filters JSON tool calls for clean terminal display
- MachineUiWriter/NullUiWriter use default pass-through
Benefits:
- Proper separation of concerns
- Core stays clean without display-specific logic
- Testability - filter can be tested independently in g3-cli
Improve planner mode user experience with better error reporting,
cleaner tool output, and consistent log file placement.
- Propagate and display classified LLM errors to users with
appropriate icons and context
- Display tool calls on single lines with truncated arguments
- Show LLM text responses without overwriting via UiWriter
- Ensure all logs write to workspace/logs directory consistently
- Set G3_WORKSPACE_PATH early in planning mode initialization
Writes the current context window to logs/current_context_window (uses a symlink to a session ID).
This PR was unfortunately generated by a different LLM and did a ton of superficial reformating, it's actually a fairly small and benign change, but I don't want to roll back everything. Hope that's ok.
