ci: Settle the E2E Reply Before the Double-Click Quote (#14840)
* test(e2e): grant MULTI_CONVO.USE in the mock e2e config

`agent-skills-added.spec.ts` drives the composer's `+` command, which opens the
added-model popover. That path is gated on MULTI_CONVO.USE:

    if (!hasMultiConvoAccess || !plusCommandEnabled || isAssistantsEndpoint(endpoint)) return;

The mock config never sets `interface.multiConvo`, so the permission falls
through to the seeded role default and `handlePlusCommand` returns before
opening the popover. The spec then fails on a popover that is absent from the
DOM entirely, which reads as a selector or timing problem rather than a missing
permission.

Set it explicitly, the same way `contextCost` is set just above for the usage
gauge — the mock config's job is to make each exercised feature's gate explicit
rather than inherit a default.

* test(e2e): wait for the reply to settle before the double-click quote

`quotes.spec.ts` › 'summons the popup from a native double-click word
selection' double-clicks a word as soon as `mockReply` becomes visible. But
`sendMessage` resolves on the stream *response*, not on the final render, so the
reply can still be re-rendering.

A streaming markdown re-render swaps out the text node the selection points at,
which collapses the selection — the same mechanism the sibling
`selectionchange` test documents deliberately. A double-click landing mid-stream
therefore loses its selection before the popup can be clicked, and because the
whole gesture is wrapped in `toPass`, every retry re-runs into the same
still-streaming reply rather than recovering from a one-off.

This is a different race from the one #14777 fixed. That one is the *selection*
still settling (touch long-press, native handle drags, block-granularity
gestures) and is handled inside QuoteButton. This one is the *reply* still
streaming, which no amount of component-side settling can absorb.

Observed on a downstream fork running this suite on slower hardware: the test
fails all three attempts, deterministically on the in-memory stream store while
the Redis lane passes the same shard — the in-memory store's final re-renders
land late enough to outlive the gesture. Four separate runs, same split.

Wait for the reply text to hold steady before selecting.

* ci(e2e): install ffmpeg so first-retry video actually records (#14841)

`playwright.config.mock.ts` sets `video: 'on-first-retry'`, but the runner only
installs `install-deps chrome`, which does not include ffmpeg. Without it the
first retry fails inside `browserContext.newPage` while setting up video
recording — before the test body runs.

The cost is the retry itself: a genuinely flaky test loses the attempt that
would have recovered it, and the reported failure is a video-setup error rather
than the original symptom.

Bounded and non-fatal on purpose. The CLI has been observed hanging after the
download completes on these runners, so the step is wrapped in `timeout` and
its failure is swallowed — if ffmpeg cannot be installed the job proceeds
exactly as it does today, and no lane is blocked on it.

Applied to both jobs that run Playwright (`e2e_shards` and
`mcp_tool_list_changed`), since both configure retries.

🎨 feat: Color the Context Gauge by Category and Collapse its Breakdown (#14855)
* 🎨 feat: Color the Context Gauge by Category and Collapse its Breakdown

The context window bar becomes a stacked meter — one hue per category — and
the breakdown collapses behind a disclosure so the gauge alone is the default
view. The collapse choice persists per user.

Adds a categorical series scale (`rgb-series-1`…`rgb-series-7`) to the
versioned theme registry, so themes and `REACT_APP_THEME_SERIES_*` can retint
it. Hues are anchored on LibreChat's own brand tokens; every step was computed
rather than picked, by enumerating slot orderings and snapping each step until
all gates passed in both modes:

  worst adjacent CVD ΔE          12.4 light / 13.0 dark  (target 8)
  worst adjacent normal-vision   19.0 light / 19.0 dark  (floor 15)
  contrast                       all 14 steps ≥ 3:1 on both the popover
                                 surface and the meter track

Slot order is the colour-vision-deficiency safety mechanism, not cosmetics.
Reserved status colors are never reused for series identity, and the circular
composer gauge is deliberately untouched — it answers "how close am I to the
limit", which stays a status question.

- `SegmentedMeter` + `MeterSwatch` land beside `Progress` in `@librechat/client`,
  owning the 2px surface gaps, rounded ends, the min-width floor, and the hatch.
  The category-to-slot mapping stays feature-local: the palette is theme data,
  the mapping is not.
- Every present category gets a 2px floor so a 251-token row cannot render as
  0.09px; the shortfall comes out of free space, never another category.
- Deferred tools keep their family's hue and add a 135° hatch, so a hue never
  means two things. Segments are reordered to put each deferred pair beside its
  parent, which is also the adjacency the palette was validated on.
- Messages is drawn as a translucent fill with a solid edge: it is the only
  category the user grows, and the form difference doubles as secondary encoding.
- A row carries a swatch if and only if it is a segment. The estimate path knows
  the total but not the composition, so it keeps a single unsegmented fill.
- Usage totals gain a "Totals" heading, and row text lifts to primary ink on
  hover/focus.
- The popover widens 256px → 288px to absorb the chevron and the legend swatches.

Guardrails: the series scale is held to the 3:1 mark floor on both surfaces, the
app CSS defaults are held in step with the runtime themes, and each slot is
asserted to resolve to a Tailwind utility backed by its CSS variable.

* 🐛 fix: Address Codex Review on the Segmented Context Gauge

Three P2 findings, all confirmed.

**Gaps inflated the fill.** Segment widths were percentages of the whole track
while `gap-[2px]` was added on top, so the gaps ate into the free-space
remainder instead of living inside the filled region. Measured on the real
component: a window at 47.2% painted 55.6% full, and the bar read full at ~94%.
Each segment now surrenders its share of the gap budget, so fills plus gaps span
exactly the used fraction. Same case now paints 50.2%.

The residual 3.0pp is the `SEGMENT_MIN` floor doing its job — five sub-pixel
categories rounded up to 2px each. That overshoot is deliberate and bounded, it
comes out of free space rather than a neighbouring category, and the doc comment
now states the magnitude instead of leaving it implicit.

**No reference-theme test.** The suite only exercised the bundled token tables,
so it could not detect the shared component becoming coupled to LibreChat's
values. Adds a deliberately different reference `ThemeDefinition` and asserts the
registry accepts it, the values reach the applied CSS variables, and every
rendered mark takes its colour from those variables — no literal colours in the
tree. `SegmentedMeter.tsx` also joins the shared-primitive colour guardrail.

**Series tokens missing from the public maps.** `IThemeVariables` and
`IThemeColors` are exported for downstream consumers to type their CSS-variable
and Tailwind maps, and would have rejected the new keys. Adds the series entries
to both, plus a compile-time guard in the registry so a slot added to one map and
missed in another fails the build.

The guard deliberately lives in `registry.ts`, not the spec: `tsconfig.json`
excludes `*.spec.ts`, so an assertion there is never checked by the build —
verified by removing a key from each map in turn and confirming the error.

*  fix: Expand the Breakdown in the Context Gauge e2e Specs

`e2e/specs/mock/usage.spec.ts` asserts on rows that now sit behind the
disclosure, so four tests failed on the collapsed default. My miss — I updated
the component spec and never grepped for e2e coverage.

`openBreakdown` now expands the detail after opening, so every caller that
reads a row keeps working; the helper is idempotent, since a reload restores an
already-expanded preference. The one inline `gauge.click()` that duplicated the
helper now uses it.

Adds the case the regression should have been caught by, and which only e2e can
reach: the popover opens to the gauge alone with no detail mounted, expanding
reveals the labelled Totals section, and the choice survives a real reload
through localStorage without a second click.

`e2e/specs/real/usage.spec.ts` reads the totals the same way. It also hovered
rather than clicked, which never opened the popover at all — hover surfaces only
the compact snapshot tooltip, as the mock spec asserts.

🐛 fix: Give the Header's Sidebar Toggle Its Own Test Id (#14850)
The header now branches on CSS instead of `useMediaQuery`, so its mobile
`OpenSidebar` stays mounted at every breakpoint. The sidebar rail already
publishes `open-sidebar-button` for its own collapsed toggle, so both held
the id at once and `getByTestId` resolved to two elements.

Scope the header's copy to `header-open-sidebar-button` and assert the count
in the spec that broke — the click there failed only once the header had
mounted, so a count assertion pins the collision deterministically.

🪄 feat: Smooth Activity Phase Transitions (#14832)
* feat: Animate activity phase transitions

* style: Match activity phase formatting

* 🪄 fix: Fold activity phase entrance in one direction, flush-left label

The phase header replaced <summary> with <button>, which brought the UA
`text-align: center` with it — the label span is `flex-1`, so the text
filled the row and centered inside it. Left-align it and drop the leading
glyph: the card's border and fill already carry the weight, and the child
tool groups keep their own icons.

The entrance also read as two movements. The card, header and inset all
hard-cut in at full size, displacing the transcript below by ~57px, then
folded back up past the header that had just pushed it down. The card now
mounts in the shape of what was already on screen — zero-height header,
transparent chrome, no inset — and grows the header as the panel collapses,
so the block's height only ever decreases. Chrome, padding and both heights
share one curve.

The collapse also waits for a painted start value; a single rAF can land
before paint, and a start value the compositor never saw snaps rather than
transitions.

- Restore the e2e parent-phase selectors, which still matched `summary`
- Memoize the hoisted `groupActivityPhases` pass and its phase-index set
- Finish the amber -> `text-text-warning` sweep in ToolCallGroup and Part

* 🩹 fix: Scope phase-entrance history and resolve media queries at mount

Addresses both Codex findings on #14832.

`MultiMessage` renders siblings without a key, so `ContentParts` survives a
sibling switch with its refs intact. The recorded phase-marker set outlived
the message it described, and any phase in the newly selected sibling whose
index was absent from the previous sibling's set was read as a live arrival —
already-loaded history mounted expanded and collapsed itself. Scope the set
to its messageId and treat a mismatch as a fresh mount.

`useMediaQuery` initialized to `false` and resolved only in a passive effect,
so the first render always reported "no match". Anything branching once at
mount — the frozen entrance flag here, and every other first-paint decision
across its call sites — never saw the correction, which is how a
`prefers-reduced-motion: reduce` user still got the fold. Read the query
synchronously in the state initializer and guard both paths for environments
without `matchMedia`.

*  fix: Honor reduced motion on manual phase disclosure

The entrance already respected the preference, but manually opening or
closing a phase did not: `useExpandCollapse` writes its transition as an
inline style, which cannot carry a `prefers-reduced-motion` media query,
and there is no global reduced-motion reset in the stylesheet. Before this
PR the phase used `<details>`, which had no animation at all — so the swap
to an animated disclosure handed reduced-motion readers a 300ms fold they
did not have.

Resolve the preference in the hook and drop the transition outright. Every
expanding panel in the message content shares it, so tool calls, thinking
blocks, attachments and web-search sources are covered by the same change.
The chevron and the fold's own utility classes get `motion-reduce`
overrides, which the inline styles cannot express.

* 🩹 fix: Keep the collapse completion signal under reduced motion

`transition: none` emits no `transitionend`, and ToolCallGroup waits on
that event to drop `shouldRenderBody`. Removing the transition therefore
left every collapsed tool subtree mounted indefinitely — expensive and
stateful children retained for exactly the readers who asked for less
work, not more.

Shorten the duration to 0.01ms instead. It is imperceptible, still fires
the event, and keeps the hook the single place that knows about the
preference. Caught by Codex on 3b9bd2181d.

ci: gate the e2e activity-phase DOM assertions on the persisted phase (#14821)
`activity-phases` asserted the parent `summary` was visible immediately after
`sendMessage` resolved. A parent phase only exists once the turn completes, the
phase closes, and its summary round-trips to the phase-label model — so that
assertion raced the entire pipeline and only survived on Playwright's retries.
It shows as `1 flaky` on the memory lane of a green dev run, and fails all three
attempts on slower hardware.

Gate the DOM on the durable projection instead. The test already fetched
/api/messages twice; the first fetch now also waits for the persisted phase part
before any DOM assertion runs, so the client is only asked about a phase the
server has already written.

Also drops the duplicate fetch. The two poll blocks queried the same endpoint
for the same message and both asserted
`finalTextIndex === activity_end_index`; the removed copy left `liveAssistant`,
`livePhase` and `liveFinalTextIndex` shadowing their durable equivalents.

No coverage removed — every assertion is preserved, reordered to follow the
dependency chain: persisted shape, then DOM, then label-model requests, then
the reload round-trip.

💬 style: Unify Message Row Layout and Edit Surfaces (#14770)
* style: Unify message row layout and edit surfaces

Route chat, share, and search messages through a shared MessageRow so
user turns render as right-aligned bubbles and assistant turns keep a
visible identity column.

Replace per-part text editors with one edit surface that keeps tools,
errors, and artifacts visible. Preserve non-text fields when saving
content parts, copy the full serialized message, and hide hover actions
that do not apply during streaming or errors.

* style: Align edit footer and lighten editor field in dark mode

Drop the divider above the user edit footer so both edit surfaces share
the same footer treatment.

Move the editor fields to surface-tertiary-alt. Light mode is unchanged
at #fff, while dark mode lifts from #0d0d0d to #2f2f2f so the field sits
above the #212121 panel instead of sinking into near-black.

* style: Drop focus border and ring from message editors

The editor fields changed border color and added a ring on focus. Keep
the border static and rely on the app-level focus handling instead.

* fix: Keep a triggered message action visible when the row is not hovered

Hover actions fade out on non-last rows, and mobile.css only restored
display and visibility for an active button, never opacity. Opening the
fork popover therefore left it anchored to an invisible trigger once the
pointer left the row. Skip the fade entirely while a button is active.

Extract the recipe the three toolbars repeated so the rule has one home.

Rework the streaming guard to the contract the toolbar now implements:
edit and fork are omitted from a streaming response rather than rendered
disabled, and the settled turn above keeps its own actions. It asserted
the removed disabled-and-transparent behaviour and its opacity check only
held because the growing response shifted the row out from under the
pointer.

* style: Trim message edit chrome and stabilize the status row

The edit surface was a titled card sitting inside the conversation: a
bordered panel with an "Edit message" heading wrapping bordered fields,
which read as a settings dialog rather than an inline editor. Drop the
card background, border and heading, and take the footer buttons down to
the small size so the editor reads as a field in the message flow. The
captured row goes from 253px to 187px.

Move "Unsaved changes" into the footer and merge the rerun hint into the
same slot. Both previously added their own row, so typing pushed the rest
of the conversation down. The slot is clamped to two lines, which stays
under the 36px button row, so the footer height holds at 36px regardless
of which message is showing.

* test: Cover message edit layout stability

Add a mock e2e spec that measures the edit footer and section boxes and
asserts they hold steady as the status text appears, for both the
single-part user editor and a multi-part response.

The multi-part case needs an assistant message with two editable parts,
so add an E2E_THINK_REPLY marker to the fake model. Its think tags are
parsed downstream by the agents stream pipeline, which yields a reasoning
part followed by a text part.

* fix: Read the fork popover open state from its store

Fork mirrored the popover state into its own useState and reset it from an
onClose prop. Ariakit 0.4 has no onClose, and React's DOM types accept the
name on any element, so it type-checked, landed on a div and never fired.
Closing by Escape or an outside click therefore left the button reading as
active until the trigger was clicked again.

Read the state from the store instead so every close path clears it.

* fix: Keep the whole toolbar visible while an action is open

Only the triggered button escaped the hover fade, so opening the editor or
the fork popover left the row as a single floating button once the pointer
moved away. Mark the active button and have every action in the toolbar key
off it, so the group stays opaque for as long as a surface is open.

The marker is a dedicated class rather than the existing `active`, which
HoverButtons pins to the edit button of every assistant message and would
hold those toolbars open permanently.

The existing guard pressed Escape to close the editor while focus sat on the
body, so the editor never closed and its assertion only held because the
sibling faded regardless. Close the editor through its own control, and drop
focus before measuring the fade now that Escape returns it to the trigger.

* fix: Withhold copy while a response is still streaming

Text-to-speech, fork and feedback were all withheld from a message that is
still generating, but copy was rendered throughout, so the button offered to
put half a sentence on the clipboard. Gate it on the same condition.

That empties the toolbar for the duration, and SubRow collapses an empty row,
so a streaming response now carries no actions at all until it settles. Both
guards encoded the old contract: the unit test asserted copy was present and
counted a single button, and the browser guard used copy as its proof that the
toolbar had mounted. The settled turn above takes over that role.

* fix: Move retry navigation to the outer edge of a user turn

A user turn is right-aligned, but its sibling navigation rendered ahead of the
actions, so the retry counter sat inboard of the icons instead of under the
edge of the bubble it belongs to. Order it last on user turns.

* fix: Ride the stream instead of chasing it

Following a generating answer went through a helper throttled at 145ms, so the
thread caught up in visible jerks rather than flowing. It now writes the scroll
position directly on each frame, which is what an answer arriving a few pixels
at a time actually needs, and glides only for the one long trip a turn makes,
when sending has to travel from wherever the reader was down to the newest
word.

Whether to follow at all is now answered by where the reader is and which way
they were going, rather than by the abort flag. `useMessageProcess` raises that
flag on any wheel at all, downward ones included, through a throttle whose
trailing call lands after the gesture has ended, so nothing timed to the
gesture could outlive it. Scrolling down to the newest word could therefore
never resume the ride, while the scroll-to-bottom button, which touches no
wheel, always could.

Arrival is judged on the scroll it produces rather than the wheel tick that
started it, because wheel scrolling is animated and at tick time the thread is
still far short of where the tick is taking it. Arriving also counts from
further out than leaving does: while an answer streams the end recedes between
the last tick and the frame that measures it, so judging arrival as tightly as
departure leaves a reader unable to catch it at all.

* fix: Reveal retry navigation on hover while an answer generates

Copy, edit, fork and read-aloud are all withheld from a response that is still
generating, which left the retry counter as the only thing rendering under a
half-written answer. It now reveals on hover there, like the actions it sits
with, and stays put on a settled turn.

* fix: Keep a refused rerun from discarding the edit

While a response is streaming, the edit action stays available on every earlier
row, and those editors see a per-message submitting flag that is false, so
Update and rerun is enabled. The send itself is still refused: ask() returns
false for the duration of the active submission. Both editors ignored that and
closed anyway, so the draft went with them and no rerun ever started.

Both rerun paths now check the result and leave the editor untouched when the
send is refused, so the work survives until the thread is free.

* fix: Let an upward gesture beat the pending send glide

Sending arms a smooth glide down to the newest word, and the landing re-pins the
thread to the bottom. The landing was scheduled two ways, on scrollend and on a
700ms fallback, and neither was ever cancelled. A reader who changed their mind
and headed up mid-flight was pinned again regardless, then dragged back by the
next streaming resize. The fallback fires for the whole window, so this held even
after the glide had visibly settled.

The gesture now marks the glide interrupted, wherever it lets go of the bottom,
and the landing stands down when it sees that. A glide the reader leaves alone
still re-affirms the ride.

* fix: Fade retry navigation on every streaming response format

Every other action is withheld from the row that is still generating, so the
retry counter is the only thing left under a half-written answer. The plain text
row already faded it to hover-only there; the structured rows did not, and left
it sitting on its own.

Both structured paths now apply the same condition, and the class string the
three of them share moves next to the hover action styles it belongs with.

* i18n: Correct the copy the edit surface rewrite left behind

The multi-part hint told the reader to save first and then rerun, but a save
closes the editor and reopening seeds the drafts from what was just saved, so
there is nothing left to rerun and the button stays disabled. Rerunning carries a
single edited section by design, so the hint now states that limit rather than
pointing at a step that is not there.

Drop com_ui_save_submit as well: the per-part editor that used it is gone.

* test: Make the message visual baselines opt-in

The suite asserts sixteen screenshots and the repository tracks none, so
Playwright's default treats every one as a miss and the mock e2e job fails on
Linux. Baselines only compare cleanly against the machine that produced them, and
nothing here can generate ones that match the runner image.

The flows keep running and asserting their structure, which is where their value
was; only the pixel comparison is now gated behind E2E_VISUAL_SNAPSHOTS.

* style: Restore import order in the reworked message files

The repository sorter and CI disagreed with what these files were left holding
after the edit surface rework. No behavior change.

* test: Follow the reworded rerun hint in the edit layout spec

The multi-part hint was restated in the previous commit; this assertion still
expected the old wording and would have failed the mock e2e suite.

* fix: Leave the send glide alone while the answer streams in

Every delta of an answer reruns the scroll effect, and the plain follow writes
scrollTop outright, which cancels an animation on its first frame. So the glide a
send starts was killed by the first token to arrive and the reader was snapped
down instead of carried.

The follow now stands down while a glide is travelling, which is what the hook
already documented but only enforced on the resize path.

* fix: Write a saved edit onto the thread as it stands

An earlier turn stays editable while the newest answer streams, and the save
captured the thread before the request but wrote it back after. Every delta that
landed during the round trip was overwritten. Most of the time the next delta
re-merged and the damage showed as a one-frame truncation, but a save that
resolved after the stream's final write left the cache wrong for the rest of the
session.

The thread is now read once the request has resolved, which is what the content
part editor already did.

The editor actions in this file also wrap again rather than hold one unbreakable
row, for the reason given in the following commit.

* fix: Let the editor actions wrap on a narrow row

At 320px an assistant turn gives the editor about 252px once page padding, the
identity column and the row gap are taken out, and Cancel, Save and Update &
rerun need more than that in English alone. The group was pinned with shrink-0,
so it ran past the edge of the row instead of wrapping. A longer translated label
makes it worse, and the user turn had no margin left either.

Both editors wrap again, which is what the footer did before the status row was
folded into it.

* fix: Catch up to the new bottom when the glide lands

Following stands down for the length of the glide, so an answer that arrives
while it travels moves the bottom past the target the glide aimed at. A short
response that finished before the glide reported landing left the thread a few
lines short of its own end, with nothing left to correct it.

Landing now closes whatever gap opened, unless the reader took over on the way.

* test: Follow the renamed rerun button in the edit flow specs

The button became 'Update & rerun' when the edit surfaces were unified, but two
edit-flow specs still located 'Save & Submit' and would have waited for it until
they timed out. A type comment named the old button too.

* fix: Judge the first thread scroll against a real position

The direction check seeded its last-position ref at 0, so the first scroll
event on an opened thread, which arrives carrying a large positive
scrollTop, read as a jump downward. Near the end that cleared the abort
flag and re-pinned a reader to the stream they were scrolling away from.

Take the first event as a baseline and judge direction from the next.

* fix: Hold the content part editor to what it replaced

EditContentParts took over from EditTextPart and left two of its behaviors
behind.

An emptied box now blocks Save and rerun instead of persisting a blank
part. EditTextPart refused the same edit through its form's required rule
and the sibling EditMessage still does, so both editors hold one line. The
keyboard shortcuts reach the save paths directly, so they are guarded
there too, and the footer says why the buttons are down.

The editor also follows the chat direction again, taking dir and text
alignment from the same setting EditMessage reads.

* fix: Hold the footer height while a response streams

Every action is withheld from the row that is still generating, and a lone
sibling counter renders nothing, so the footer measured zero until the answer
landed and then sprang to the height of the buttons. The transcript stepped
upward under the reader at the moment a response completed.

The placeholder that used to reserve this space went when the footer became
unconditional, so hold the height on the row itself instead.

* fix: Remember where the thread was put before judging a gesture

Direction is judged against the last sample, and the thread is placed at its
end without the reader touching it. With no record of where it was put, their
first gesture was spent taking the baseline instead of being obeyed: a single
PageUp cleared no flag of its own, so the next streamed resize rode the reader
straight back to the end they were leaving.

Every programmatic move now records the position it left the thread at, so the
sentinel stands only until something has actually placed it.

* fix: Spend the start of a turn only once it can be honored

A reader who scrolls away during one answer leaves the abort flag raised, and
nothing lowers it until the next connection opens, which is after this effect
has already seen the send. Marking the turn as started on that first pass spent
it against a closed gate: by the time the flag cleared there was no start left
to honor, the reader was still detached, and the answer they had just asked for
streamed on offscreen.

Record the turn as started only on the pass that acts on it.

* fix: Show the part edits that survived a refused save

The editor saves every changed part through one button, but the endpoint
takes a single part per call and nothing rolls a write back. A part the
server refused therefore left the earlier ones stored while the editor
reported that the message could not be saved, so cancelling from there
walked away from edits that were already live.

Record the writes that landed and reconcile the transcript with them
whichever way the save ended. The refused parts are the only ones left
holding a draft, so a retry no longer rewrites what already arrived.

* fix: Stop a shared transcript from calling the sharer the reader

The share row reused the chat view's user label, which reads "You". It is
the screen-reader heading for the user turn, so anyone opening a share
link heard every prompt the sharer wrote credited to themselves.

Use the neutral "User" label on this surface. It keeps the localization
the row gained, unlike the untranslated string it replaced.

* fix: Let go of the stream when an interaction settles over several resizes

Expanding a tool result mid-answer renders the container first and fills it
once its contents arrive, so one gesture produces more than one resize. Only
the first was credited to the interaction. The second read the reader as still
riding the stream and put them back on the bottom they had just left.

The suppressed resize now settles the ride as well as the near-bottom measure,
using the position the interaction actually left the reader at, so an
interaction that kept them on the end still streams.

* fix: Edit inside a structured text part instead of flattening it

A text content part holds either a string or a { value, annotations } object.
The Assistants thread sync persists the structured form with its file
citations intact, and the editor reads the part through the same union, so
saving an edit wrote a bare string over the whole object and took every
citation with it.

The same object was handed to the tokenizer, which measures length, so a part
that had been edited this way also stored a NaN token count. Write the edit
into value, keep the rest of the part, and count the text itself.

* fix: Keep a saved part's citations in the transcript it is written back to

A text or think part holds either a bare string or a { value, annotations }
object, and the editor already read both through getPartText. Writing the
draft back into the local message cache put the string over the whole value,
so a response carrying file citations lost them the moment it was edited and
did not get them back until a refetch.

Reading and writing now go through the same accessor, so an edit lands in the
shape it was read from and the rest of the part survives.

* fix: Let the message editor follow the chosen font size

Editing a message dropped the draft to a fixed 14px regardless of the
Font Size setting. On dev the textarea carried the markdown class, so it
read --markdown-font-size like the rendered message does; restyling it
into a bordered box replaced that with text-sm, and the new per-part
editor was written the same way. Anyone on Extra Small, Large or Extra
Large saw the text jump the moment they entered edit mode.

Share the .message-content typography with the editors through a
message-editor-text class so a draft is sized like the message it
replaces and keeps tracking the setting.

📱 fix: Show Quote Popup for Block Selections and on Touch Devices (#14777)
* 📱 fix: Show Quote Popup for Block Selections and on Touch Devices

The "Add to chat" popup never appeared for two whole classes of selection.

Block-granularity gestures (triple-click, double-click then word-drag) park
the selection's far boundary at the start of the next block. For a message's
closing block that boundary sits outside `.message-render` — on the composer
wrapper or the following message row — while selecting no text there, so the
anchor/focus equality check suppressed the popup. Triple-clicking any earlier
paragraph worked, which is what made this look like an edge case. The range is
now clamped to the message before the check, and selections that really do
carry visible text from another message are still refused.

Touch platforms could not reach the feature at all. A long-press, and every
drag of the native selection handles, emits no mouse event whatsoever — only
`selectionchange` — while the popup was shown exclusively from mouseup,
dblclick and keyup. Showing now also hangs off a settle-debounced
`selectionchange`, gated so an in-progress mouse drag still cannot flicker it.
Accepting was broken independently: the tap is also the gesture that dismisses
the selection, unmounting the button before `click` could land, so touch
commits on `pointerdown` instead. The desktop mousedown path is deliberately
unchanged, since preventDefault on `pointerdown` can suppress the
compatibility mousedown that click depends on.

Two UX consequences of the same code: scrolling re-anchors the popup rather
than dismissing it on the first event (the chat auto-scrolls constantly while
streaming, and a mobile URL bar collapsing fires resize), and touch selections
place the button below the text, clear of the OS Copy/Share callout, with a
44px tap target.

Covered by six e2e tests — three desktop, three on an emulated Pixel 5 with a
real touchscreen — each verified to fail against the pre-fix build.

* 🩹 fix: Address Review Findings and Repair the Scroll Specs

The two failing e2e shards were a defect in the specs, not the component.
`scrollMessages` reached for `.scrollbar-gutter-stable` with a document-wide
query, but the nav and side panels carry that class too, so it could grab a
sidebar list that never scrolls — 0px moved, and only in CI, where the nav
renders differently. The scroller is now reached from the message itself, the
way `MessageNav` does it. The specs also centre the selection first and nudge
by a quarter of the visible height, so the gesture cannot scroll the selection
clean out of view and then blame the popup for going with it.

Review findings, all in `QuoteButton`:

Visibility was tested against the window, but the list scrolls inside a bounded
container, so text can sit clipped under the header or the composer while its
un-clipped rect is still inside the window — leaving the popup floating over
unrelated UI. It is now clipped to the nearest scrollable ancestor.

Touch committed on the press, so starting a scroll on the button, or touching
it and thinking better of it, still added the quote. The excerpt is captured on
the press and committed on the release, and only when that release lands on the
button, restoring the cancellation every button is expected to have. Commit on
press existed because the tap dismisses the selection before `click` fires;
capturing the text up front keeps that safe, and an in-flight press is no
longer allowed to unmount its own target.

A visible popup also described the previous selection for up to the settle
window, so a tap while dragging a native selection handle queued the stale
excerpt. It is dropped as soon as a differing selection starts settling.

Finally, `viaTouch` survived from the last press into keyboard-driven
selections on hybrid devices, which could flip the popup into the touch layout;
keydown clears it.

The cancel path is covered by a new touch spec, verified to fail against a
commit-on-press build.

* 🧵 fix: Reconcile Cancelled Presses, Widen Clipping, Steady the Scroll Specs

Second review round, with one finding taken on trust and flagged rather than
claimed as proven.

A cancelled touch press could leave the popup backed by a selection that no
longer existed. A press deliberately keeps the button alive through a
collapsing selection so the release has a target to be judged against, but a
cancel then dropped the press without ever honouring the collapse it had
masked, so a later tap could add a dead excerpt. Ending a press without
committing now rechecks the live selection and dismisses if it went away.

Visibility now intersects every clipping ancestor of the message rather than
stopping at the nearest. This one is precautionary, not a proven fix: the
review that prompted it describes scroll containers *inside* a message (a wide
table, a code block) shadowing the outer chat scroller, but the walk starts
from the message element, so those are descendants and were never in the chain.
Behaviour is unchanged in the current layout — a spec covering a table-cell
selection passes identically with and without it — and it is kept only because
intersecting the whole chain stays correct if the list is ever nested inside a
further-clipped panel. The comment says exactly this.

The scroll specs were the real instability. They now move the selection between
two positions that are both on screen instead of nudging by a pixel count:
blind nudges kept pushing it under the composer, where the popup correctly
hides, and the chat's own auto-scroll made the landing spot unpredictable. They
also target the opening paragraph, since the closing one is the last content in
the conversation and cannot be carried upward from a list already at maximum
scroll.

The reply fixture gained a table so a selection inside a nested scroll container
is exercised, and a spec covers the cancelled press.

15/15 pass locally.

* 🪟 fix: Judge Quote-Popup Visibility From the Selection, on Both Axes

Third review round. All three findings held up, and each now has a spec that
fails without its fix.

Clipping is now measured from the selection rather than from the message, and
on both axes. A wide table or a long code line scrolls inside its own container
— and `overflow-x: auto` makes the computed `overflow-y` auto, so it clips
vertically too — which means scrolling it sideways carries the selected text out
of view while the message never moves. Walking up from the message could not see
those containers at all, and a vertical-only test could not see that motion.
This supersedes the previous round's precautionary widening, which was kept
without evidence; the evidence is now a spec that scrolls a table past its own
selection.

Publishing a settled selection also checks visibility. Nothing is tracked during
the 300ms settle interval, so a scroll inside that window never reached the
re-anchoring path, and the reading was published off-screen and then clamped
into view — stranding the popup over unrelated UI.

The cancelled-press spec now reproduces the ordering it describes. Collapsing
the selection and cancelling in one synchronous block let the asynchronous
`selectionchange` arrive after the press had ended, which is the ordinary path
and passes either way; it now waits for delivery in between, so the collapse
lands while the press is still masking it. Two other specs needed the same
scrutiny: `toBeHidden` is satisfied by an element that does not exist yet, so
the settle spec sits out the interval before asserting, and it scrolls just past
the container edge rather than to the end of the conversation, because a violent
scroll re-renders the messages and drops the selection for unrelated reasons.

The reply fixture's table is now wide enough to overflow sideways.

17/17 pass, and each new spec was re-run against a build with its own fix
reverted to confirm it fails there.

🧜 feat: Open Mermaid Diagrams as Artifacts with SVG/PNG Export (#14713)
* feat: open Mermaid diagrams in the artifact panel with SVG and PNG export

Mermaid diagrams previously rendered inline only, and the artifact panel
routed every artifact through Sandpack even when no bundler was needed.

- Route Mermaid artifacts to a direct renderer in ArtifactTabs, moving the
  Sandpack path into a lazily loaded SandboxArtifactTabs so opening a
  diagram no longer pulls in the bundler chrome or the startup config.
- Add an inline artifact card that opens the diagram in the panel instead
  of rendering the same diagram twice.
- Add SVG and PNG export from both the inline diagram and the panel
  header, with size-capped canvas scaling and background compositing.
- Lazy-load the artifact panel in Presentation and ShareArtifacts.
- Accessibility: label the panel as a dialog on mobile with a focus trap,
  make the mobile resize handle keyboard operable, restore focus to the
  opener on close, and honor prefers-reduced-motion.
- Fix the generated Sandpack wrapper to serialize diagram source instead
  of interpolating it into a template literal.
- Cover the new paths with unit tests and a cross-browser Playwright spec.

* fix: keep Mermaid artifact identity and render state per diagram

Addresses three review findings on the Mermaid artifact panel.

Mermaid fences do not consume a code-block index, so every diagram in a
message received the same `mermaid-${blockIndex}` and therefore the same
Recoil artifact key: expanding one overwrote the other, and both cards
read as selected. Mermaid fences now carry their own index sequence,
seeded per markdown block the same way the code and artifact counters
are, so the id stays stable across streamed tokens.

The panel renderer is keyed by artifact id, so switching directly
between two diagrams can no longer carry the previous render, its
dimensions, or its export payload across the boundary while the new
source debounces. Editing an open diagram still does not remount.

The preview Refresh action drives the Sandpack client, which a Mermaid
preview never populates, so it only covered the panel with a spinner.
It is hidden for Mermaid, which offers its own retry on render failure.

Also drops com_ui_mermaid_export_preparing and com_ui_mermaid_source,
which no longer have call sites, fixing the unused-i18n-keys check.

* fix: bind Mermaid preview and export to the artifact on screen

Three further review findings, all on state outliving what it describes.

The editor reset in ArtifactTabs only lands after commit, so the render
that switched artifacts still passed the previous artifact's editor text
to the freshly keyed renderer, which mounted showing (and exporting) the
diagram just navigated away from. Editor text is now ignored until the
reset catches up. SandboxArtifactTabs carried the same pattern and gets
the same guard.

Switching to the code tab unmounts the preview, but the export payload
survived it, so the toolbar kept exporting a diagram that was no longer
on screen and no longer matched an edited source. The renderer now
withdraws its payload on unmount, and the export action is scoped to the
preview tab.

The diagram canvas mounts only once there is a diagram to show, so the
ResizeObserver ran against a null ref while the placeholder was up and
never saw the real element. Wide diagrams were fitted to the default
700px and clipped in narrower panels. Observation now re-runs when the
canvas appears.

* fix: scope Mermaid artifact ids to the content part

Each content part renders its own markdown tree, so the per-message
Mermaid counter restarts at zero in every part. Diagrams sitting either
side of a tool call therefore both resolved to
`mermaid-artifact-${messageId}-mermaid-0`: one registration overwrote
the other and both cards shared a selection state. The part index the
message context already carries now takes part in the scope.

* fix: keep the Mermaid export menu reachable in fullscreen

The artifact panel gained a fullscreen mode on dev, which re-roots the
panel into the fullscreen element and portals the copy and version
popovers there so they stay visible. The Mermaid export menu portals to
the body, so once these branches met it opened outside the fullscreen
element and rendered invisible. It now takes the same portal target.

* fix: heal Mermaid registrations and cap PNG canvases after rounding

Two findings from the latest review pass.

Closing the panel unmounts Artifacts, whose useArtifacts cleanup wipes
artifactsState while the inline cards stay on screen. The Mermaid card
never observed that, so reopening one card restored only itself and any
other expanded diagram vanished from the version navigator until it was
clicked again. It now subscribes to its own slice and re-registers when
the entry goes missing, matching the self-heal ToolArtifactCard already
documents. The write is a no-op when the entry matches, so it settles.

Rounding each PNG side independently could carry the product back over
the 16.7M pixel budget the scale was picked to satisfy: 3129x50000
resolved to 1025x16374, which is 16,783,350 pixels and enough for a
browser enforcing the area limit to reject toBlob outright. Rounding
down cannot exceed the budget, since the bounding scale is derived from
it.

🔗 feat: Shared Conversation Badge and Stable Share Links (#14712)
* feat: improve shared conversation links

* test: Cover Shared Link Lifecycle

* test: Cover Shared File Snapshots

* fix: address review findings on shared links

Stop double-decoding the conversation search term. Express already decodes
req.query, so the route's extra decodeURIComponent threw URIError on any term
containing a bare percent sign and mangled percent-escape-looking text. The
sidebar already sent the term raw, so this failed there too.

Advance a share's stored target to its branch tail when an update omits one.
Updating from the conversation list could not resolve the tail and reused the
stored target verbatim, silently republishing the same snapshot instead of the
turns added since.

Require revalidation on shared files. Updates now keep the shareId, so the file
URL no longer changes and a cached response could outlive a revoked share-files
choice; an ETag over the pinned snapshot fields keeps unchanged files on 304.

* fix: keep the shared badge across conversation cache replacements

isShared is derived per list request and absent from single-conversation
payloads, so rename, pin, and the SSE conversation updates dropped it when they
swapped a server response into the sidebar cache, hiding the badge until an
unrelated list refetch. Carry the cached value forward in updateConvoInAllQueries
so every replacing caller is covered, while an explicit value still wins.

* test: mock syncStaticTools in server boot specs

initializeMCPs now calls syncStaticTools when no MCP servers are configured, but the server boot specs stub ~/server/services/Config without it. Post-listen initialization threw, hit process.exit(1), and took the jest worker down until it exceeded the retry limit.

* fix: address codex findings on the shared DataTable and file ETag

Keep the published DataTable export bound to the legacy component and ship the design-system table as VirtualizedDataTable, so external consumers of @librechat/client keep the props they compile against.

Fold the snapshot's stored location into the shared-file ETag, so a re-published output that keeps its size and revision but moves its object no longer revalidates to a stale 304.

Auto-fill the table when a first page is too short to overflow its container, since pagination is otherwise only reachable through the scroll handler.

* fix: re-scope share grants before publishing and retry stalled auto-fill

Move the shared-link ACL expiration write ahead of the content update. The shareId survives an update, so a failed ACL write after the write-through left the new messages and file snapshot readable at the same URL while the owner saw a 500.

Retry a rejected auto-fill fetch up to three times: an unscrollable table has no scroll event to fall back on, and the sentinel alone would strand it on the first page.

* fix: follow regenerated branches and pin forks to the payload they saw

advanceTargetToBranchTail only walked descendants, so a target replaced by a regeneration (a sibling, not a child) left the update parked on the obsolete branch and published none of the turns that followed. A childless target now hops once to the newest sibling the conversation continued under.

A shareId survives an update, so an owner republishing between a viewer's load and their Continue click would resolve targetMessageIndex against different messages. The fork request now carries the payload's updatedAt and is rejected with 409 when it no longer matches; the viewer gets the current version pulled in and can retry.

* fix: keep table sorting and legacy backfills from breaking share flows

Restore the union formatting a local lint-staged prettier collapsed in data-provider types, which broke the CI lint run.

Header clicks now toggle direction instead of cycling through an unsorted state, which the controlled tables translated straight back into the default and made one direction unreachable.

Re-arm the auto-fill guard on a sort change: a re-sorted first page arrives with the same row count, and the guard would otherwise suppress paging on a container that still cannot scroll.

Lazy fileSnapshots backfills no longer touch updatedAt. That timestamp is the revision a viewer's fork is validated against, so a legacy share's first read would have made the Continue click that followed it fail with a 409.

* fix: break pagination ties by id and reset share state per conversation

Both list cursors marked a page boundary with values that repeat: conversations by (sort field, updatedAt) and shared links by the sort field alone. Imported chats share a title and a timestamp, so every row tied with the boundary was skipped. Both now carry the boundary row's _id and sort by it last, and the shared-links cursor is an opaque composite the route still validates before querying.

The share dialog outlives a switch between conversations, so a link with files disabled left the next conversation's dialog showing the switch off and quietly published without files. The stored choice now falls back to the enabled default, and a stale link no longer sits in the copy field.

* fix: keep titleless shared links in the paginated list

A share has no title default, and BSON orders a missing title before every string, so encoding the boundary as an empty string skipped the remaining untitled links when sorting Name ascending and re-admitted all of them descending.

The cursor now carries the boundary's null rather than flattening it, and because $lt and $gt are type-bracketed against a string, descending adds an explicit clause for the untitled tail that a string comparison can never reach.

* style: sort share method imports

* fix: fail closed on orphaned share targets and guard snapshot backfills

getMessagesUpToTarget walked levels from the roots and returned everything it had accumulated when the target was never reached. An imported or partially deleted branch whose parent is missing therefore published the whole conversation instead of the selected branch; the walk now returns nothing unless it actually reaches the target.

A lazy backfill wrote fileSnapshots unconditionally, so a viewer's first read of a legacy link could land after a republish and restore the snapshot it replaced, re-authorizing the stable URL of a file the owner had just removed. The write is now conditional on the link still having no snapshot, and the stored one wins any race.

Regenerating a message above the shared tail leaves the whole stored branch childless, so the target walk now climbs to the closest ancestor the conversation continued under instead of stopping at the stored tail's own siblings.

Changing the search or sort also returns the table's viewport to the top, since the query holds the previous rows while it refetches.

* fix: page through titleless rows on both sides of the cursor

The route validator still required a string primary, so the composite cursor the data layer issues for a titleless boundary came back as a 400 and the shared-links table stopped at that page.

Conversations had the same type-bracketing gap the shared links just closed: a name-sorted page could not reach conversations with no title, since a comparison against a string never matches a missing field. The cursor now carries the null and the filter spells out the titleless clauses for both directions.

* fix: keep the share badge read-only and refresh rows on cell changes

ensureLinkPermissions re-granted the owner ACL entry on every call, so rendering the header's shared badge turned ordinary navigation into a permission write. It now checks for the grant first and only migrates a link that still lacks one.

A fork carrying a positional target but no revision falls back to the whole share, since nothing proves which payload the index was counted against.

The memoized table row compared row data and selection only, so a cell rendering external state (the archived list's pending Restore, for one) kept its stale rendering until the row object itself moved; rows now also compare a marker that moves with the column definitions.

* fix: keep the shared badge honest when a delete fails or a link remains

A failed delete left the conversation looking unshared: the optimistic snapshot covered only the shared-link queries, not the conversation caches the badge reads. The cleared conversations are now restored with the rest.

A conversation can hold one link per target message, so clearing the badge on delete is a guess. The conversation list is invalidated once the mutation settles, letting the server decide from the links that are actually left.

* fix: refetch every cached conversation page after deleting a link

The invalidation was pinned to page zero, so a conversation cached further down the sidebar kept the badge the optimistic update had already cleared even when another targeted link survived.

* fix: treat a failed page fetch as a failed auto-fill

React Query resolves fetchNextPage with an error result instead of rejecting, so the rejection handler never ran: the guard stayed armed on the unchanged row count and an unscrollable table could never reach the next page.

* refactor: move the share request helpers into the typed backend

Cursor validation, page-size clamping and the shared-file cache validator were plain backend logic sitting in the legacy JS route. They now live in packages/api with their own tests, and the route keeps only the Express-side wiring: reading query params, mapping domain error codes to status codes, and writing the response.

Also carries the requested file choice into the cache entry the create and update mutations synthesize, since the response never echoes it and the dialog reads a resolved entry with no choice as the enabled default.

* fix: hold auto-fill while the replacement page is in flight

A search or sort swap keeps the previous rows and hasNextPage on screen while the new first page loads, so the re-armed auto-fill asked for page two against a query that was still fetching its first. An infinite query runs one fetch at a time, so that request could cancel or interfere with the one already out. Both tables now pass their fetching state and the guard waits for it.

* fix: stop advertising links a deployment no longer serves

The sidebar badge rendered from the derived flag alone, so a deployment that turned shared links off still told owners a link was live while the public routes were unregistered.

The share dialog called the link a snapshot, but the payload populates the referenced message documents on every request: an edit to an already-shared message is visible immediately, and Update only adds newly referenced ones. The copy now says that.

Scroll pagination inspects a resolved error the way auto-fill already does, since React Query reports a failed page that way instead of rejecting.

* a11y: gate the shared conversation label on the feature flag

The icon stopped rendering when a deployment turns shared links off, but the row still announced the conversation as shared to screen readers. Both now read the same condition.

* fix: accept long title cursors and stop badge work the feature disables

The cursor cap was tight enough that a Name-sorted page ending on a long title produced a nextCursor the next request rejected, stranding the rest of the list. It now sits well clear of anything the server can issue.

The conversation list skipped straight into the shared-link lookup even where ALLOW_SHARED_LINKS is off, paying a round trip on the sidebar's first page for a badge that is never rendered.

A regeneration is newer than what it replaced, so only a newer sibling counts: an older one that still has follow-ups is the branch the target was regenerated away from, and resuming there published turns the target had excluded.

* fix: hold scroll pagination while a replacement page loads

Resetting the viewport to the top after a search or sort change fires a scroll event, and the retained previous rows still report another page, so the handler asked for page two of a query that was still loading page one.

* fix: keep the legacy share migration ahead of the owner-grant shortcut

A legacy row keeps its marker until every grant it needs exists, so an owner grant on its own is not proof the migration finished. Reading the marker first means a half-migrated public link still gets its public grant, while a fully migrated one keeps the read-only settled path the badge lookup depends on.

🧭 refactor: make the side panels behave the same way (#14695)
* style: unify chat input tool badge styling

Every tool badge repeated max-w-fit and its own hand-written checked-state
colour triplet. Move max-w-fit into CheckboxButton's base classes, where
tailwind-merge still lets a consumer override it, and collect the accent
colours into a single map so the palette lives in one place.

Artifacts repeated the amber triplet a second time on its dropdown button;
that now reads from the same map.

* feat: add feedback when resetting model parameters

The button did nothing visible on click, so with parameters already at
their defaults it looked broken. Spin the icon a full turn on press and
announce the change politely, matching the Agent Builder panel which
already announced but had no visual counterpart.

The animation replays on consecutive clicks via a reflow, and is gated
behind motion-reduce.

* fix: keep the prompt editor open when inserting a special variable

Opening the variables menu moved focus out of the textarea, whose blur
handler exits edit mode, so the prompt snapped back to its rendered
preview as if it had been saved.

Guard the blur against focus landing inside a menu, since Ariakit focuses
the menu itself on open, and hand the menu a finalFocus target so focus
returns to the textarea on close. Without the latter the editor stayed
open but unfocused, which quietly broke click-away-to-exit.

* feat: create prompts from a dialog instead of a dedicated page

Prompts now open a dialog from the sidebar, matching how skills and MCP
servers are created, and /prompts/new is gone. The dialog reuses the
existing form rather than duplicating it, with a flag to drop the
page-level chrome that has no place in a modal.

Three things the modal exposed:

- Radix locks pointer events on the body, so the portaled category and
  special-variable menus rendered but could not be clicked. They now
  render inline when hosted in a dialog, as SetKeyDialog already does.
- The floating labels notch out the page surface, which left a visible
  chip against the dialog background in dark mode. The surface is now
  passed in rather than hardcoded.
- Creating gave no indication anything was happening; the button now
  shows a spinner and blocks repeat submits.

Create buttons for both prompts and skills use the submit variant, since
both perform a write.

* style: match prompt action button sizes

The share button sat at 36px next to a 40px Use Prompt button in the
preview. Drop the size override so it takes the icon variant's default,
and bring its row-mates in the editor header along so that row stays
uniform.

* feat: load prompts by scrolling instead of paging

The query was already cursor-based; the nav hook was slicing it back into
one page at a time behind Prev/Next buttons. Flatten the loaded pages and
let the existing scroll hook fetch as the list nears its end.

useNavScrolling only fetched from a scroll event, so a first page that
did not overflow its container produced no event and the rest of the list
was unreachable. It now tops up until the list actually scrolls, which is
why zooming in used to 'fix' it.

* feat: pin panel admin settings and scroll only the panel content

Each side panel scrolled as a whole, so its filter row and toggles slid
away with the list and the scrollbar spanned the full height. Give every
panel a fixed header, a scrolling content region, and a footer that holds
the admin settings.

The skills panel gains the standard filter input in place of its title
and toggle-to-search icon; it also rendered admin settings twice, once
from the filter row and once from the accordion.

Memories drops its client-side paging, which only sliced already-loaded
data, in favour of scrolling the full list.

* fix: repair the skills create menu and icon-only dropdowns

The create menu was built on Dropdown, which is a select rather than an
action menu, and Dropdown applies its className to the popover as well as
the trigger. Sizing the trigger therefore shrank the menu itself to 36px
and clipped both entries. Rebuild it on DropdownPopup, which is what the
rest of the app uses for action menus.

Dropdown's icon-only trigger also kept its horizontal padding and laid the
icon out in a full-width flex row, leaving too little room so the icon
flex-shrank to roughly half its width. That affected every icon-only
consumer, including the prompts category filter.

* fix: correct the gap above the MCP server URL field

The fieldset grouping the connection sections carried display: contents,
which removes its box and with it the margin that space-y puts on it. The
first section inside sat flush against the description while every other
gap kept its 16px.

* refactor: unpin a favorite in one click

The row's overflow menu held a single Unpin entry, so opening it was pure
overhead. Show the unpin button directly instead.

Its hover surface matched the row's own hover colour exactly, so hovering
changed nothing; it now uses a surface that differs in both themes, with
a border carrying the contrast in light mode where the surfaces are close.

Adds the tests for unpinning, which had none.

* fix: stop prompt skeletons stacking on top of the loaded list

The groups were rendered outside the loading branch, so a refetch with
data already cached drew three skeletons above the existing rows instead
of leaving the list alone. The three states are now mutually exclusive.

* feat: add PanelContent to standardize side panel loading states

Each panel decided for itself whether to draw a spinner, a skeleton, or
nothing, and some replaced the whole panel rather than just the list.
PanelContent owns the scroll region and the loading/empty/content
decision so a panel cannot invent a fourth pattern.

It takes isLoading rather than isFetching on purpose: a refetch that
already has rows on screen should leave them alone.

* feat: give the side panels row-shaped loading skeletons

Each panel now loads with a skeleton built from the row it stands in for,
rather than a spinner or nothing: the memory card's key and token pill,
the MCP server's icon over name and description, the bookmark's icon and
count, the prompt card's block.

Memories previously replaced the entire panel while loading, so the
filter you had just typed into disappeared. The skeleton is now confined
to the content region and the header stays put.

Loading also moves out of the list components, which had each grown their
own copy of it, and into the shared PanelContent.

* feat: show a loading state in the bookmarks panel

Bookmarks had no loading state at all: it rendered straight into its
empty state while fetching, so it flashed 'no bookmarks' before the list
appeared. Thread isLoading through and give it the same header, scrolling
content and skeleton as the other panels.

* style: tighten the favorite row and unpin button

Even padding on the row, the unpin button sitting a little closer to the
edge, and no border until it is hovered.

* feat: scroll the bookmarks list instead of paging it

Bookmarks were already fetched in full, so the pager was slicing data
that was sitting in memory. Render the whole list and let it scroll, the
same as the other side panels.

It also removes a latent drag bug: rows were reordered by their index in
the unsliced array while the list rendered a page slice, so dragging on
any page past the first moved the wrong row.

* feat: load skills by scrolling instead of capping the list

The skills panel fetched a single page of 50 and never asked for more, so
a 51st skill was unreachable. Switch it to the cursor-paginated infinite
query that already existed alongside it and wire the shared scroll hook,
matching prompts and the other side panels.

The list and its rows only ever read summary fields, so they now take
TSkillSummary and the response no longer needs casting through unknown.

* fix: stop mocking real modules as virtual in specs

Seven specs mocked @librechat/client and librechat-data-provider with
`virtual: true`, which is for modules that do not exist on disk. These
do, so the flag keyed each mock to a path derived from the spec's own
directory rather than the module's resolved id. The component under test
resolves the real id, so whether it got the mock depended on the module
id cache of whichever worker picked the file up.

UploadSkillDialog was the one that bit: when the mock missed, the real
Radix dialog rendered and portaled its content to the body, so every
assertion reading from the render container failed with the input
"not rendered" while it sat in a portal a few nodes away.

* test: give the lazy bookmark chunk room to load

Waiting for BookmarkNav means waiting for babel to transform its whole
module graph on first require, which does not fit in waitFor's default
second when the transform cache is cold or the machine is busy. The
failure looked like a missed re-render but was just an import in flight.

* build: recycle jest workers before the OS kills them

Coverage maps accumulate for the life of a worker, so a full client run
pushes workers past a gigabyte and the OS kills one, failing whichever
suite it was holding at the time. Capping idle worker memory also cut
the wall clock, since the run no longer swaps.

* fix: give the dialog prompt labels a real backdrop

Floating labels notch out the surface behind them so the input's border
does not run through the text. The dialog variant asked for `bg-background`,
which no longer maps to anything and computes to transparent in both
themes, leaving the border visible through the label. `bg-surface-primary`
is what OGDialogContent actually paints.

* fix: resolve side panel review findings

Send the removed prompt create page to a tombstone route so a stale
/prompts/new cannot render a blank form or fetch the id "new".

Drive the list footer spinner from isFetchingNextPage alone; the old
showLoading flag was set on scroll and only cleared by a later scroll,
so it stuck on after the last page.

Retry the scroll auto-fill through a ResizeObserver: the fill bailed
whenever the panel had no layout yet and nothing asked again once it
got one. A collapsed sidebar keeps its panel mounted and laid out, so
gate fetching on the sidebar being expanded rather than draining the
catalog behind an invisible panel.

Gate the MCP admin footer on the admin role, matching the memories,
prompts and skills panels; the bordered bar rendered empty for
everyone else.

Replay the reset icon spin by remounting the icon. Toggling the class
list lost the animation to the re-render that setConversation causes.

Announce panel loading from a live region carrying its own text. The
skeleton rows and the spinner are both aria-hidden, so labelling the
region left nothing for a screen reader to read out.

Cover the scroll hook, the panel content primitive and the prompt
create dialog with unit tests, and point the prompts e2e spec at the
dialog rather than the deleted page.

* chore: remove unused translation keys

com_ui_pagination and com_ui_select_or_create_prompt lost their last
callers when the prompt list moved to infinite scroll and the empty
prompt preview was dropped. Only the English file is touched; the
other locales are generated externally.

* Fix nav pagination retry loop

* Fix prompt field IDs and skills pagination

* Fix prompt dropdown ARIA IDs

* test: stub syncStaticTools in the server bootstrap specs

initializeMCPs now calls syncStaticTools from services/Config when no MCP
servers are configured. Both bootstrap specs mock that module wholesale, so
the call threw, the post-listen handler ran process.exit(1), and the Jest
worker died four times over before the suite was reported as failing to run.

* 📦 chore: bump `@librechat/agents` to version 3.4.2

* 📦 chore: bump `mermaid` to version 11.16.1 and update related dependencies

* 📦 chore: bump `js-yaml` to version 4.3.1 in package-lock and data-provider

* 📦 chore: bump `nanoid` to version 3.3.18 in package.json and package-lock.json across multiple packages

* 🔧 fix: Remove stray `api/tsconfig.json` breaking e2e `~` alias

An empty `api/tsconfig.json` was accidentally committed with the agents bump.
Playwright's require hook resolves path aliases from the nearest path-config,
checking `tsconfig.json` before `jsconfig.json` in each folder, so the empty
file shadowed `api/jsconfig.json` — the only place `"~/*": ["./*"]` is defined.

Every e2e spec that calls `cleanupUser` then failed on
`Cannot find module '~/cache/getLogStores'` from `api/models/index.js`.

- delete the stray file and gitignore it so tooling can't re-commit it
- register `module-alias` in `cleanupUser` so backend requires resolve
  regardless of which path-config Playwright happens to find

🩹 fix: Keep Edit Action Fully Hidden While Streaming (#14687)
* 🩹 fix: Keep Edit Action Fully Hidden While Streaming

#14677 stopped the row-hover reveal from un-hiding the edit button, but the
pencil still shows as a dimmed ghost mid-generation. The shared Button
primitive sets `disabled:opacity-50`, which compiles to
`.disabled\:opacity-50:disabled` — specificity (0,2,0). The hidden state used a
plain `opacity-0` at (0,1,0), so the disabled style won and painted the icon at
half opacity.

Verified in Chromium against a running instance: only two opacity rules match
the button, and the computed value was 0.5. Switching the hidden state to
`!opacity-0` (Tailwind emits `opacity: 0 !important`) drops it to 0 while the
sibling actions still reveal at 1 on hover.

The existing unit test could not catch this: jsdom applies no stylesheet, so
asserting class names never exercised the cascade. It now asserts the important
modifier specifically, with a comment explaining why a bare `opacity-0` is
insufficient.

* 🧪 test: Browser guard for the hidden edit action

The Jest spec can only assert class names — jsdom applies no stylesheet, so it
could not see `disabled:opacity-50` (0,2,0) outranking `opacity-0` (0,1,0) and
repainting the hidden pencil at half opacity. That is exactly how the ghost
survived #14677 with a green suite.

Asserts computed opacity in a real browser mid-stream, and asserts the sibling
Copy action is at opacity 1 in the same breath so a hover that silently failed
to register cannot make the check pass for the wrong reason. Verified to fail on
the pre-fix build with `Received: "0.5"`, and to pass 3/3 after.

🎨 refactor: adopt the @librechat/client design system (semantic color tokens + component migration) (#13879)
* refactor: unify Tailwind color tokens into a single source

Both the client SPA and @librechat/client Tailwind configs now consume one
createTailwindColors() map, eliminating config drift. Fixes the package-side
build along the way: shadcn tokens are wrapped in hsl(), the broken opacity
helper is removed, and text-destructive/border-destructive/switch-unchecked
plus the gray/green palettes are included.

* refactor: replace hardcoded colors in sidebar conversation list with tokens

Migrate the Conversations sidebar section to semantic tokens: focus rings to
ring-text-primary (keeps >=3:1 contrast in both modes; the mid-gray ring would
fail WCAG 1.4.11 on dark), the active-conversation indicator and hover-fade
gradient to surface/text tokens, and the pagination controls. Removes every
dark: color twin; no behavior change.

* feat: add semantic status-color tokens; migrate MCP status badge

Add a status-color layer (status-{success|info|warning|error|neutral} plus
-subtle variants) to style.css and the unified createTailwindColors map, with a
blue palette for the info hue. Migrate MCPStatusBadge (badges + dots) and
MCPCardActions to the new tokens, removing all hardcoded status colors and
dark: twins. Status colors are now themeable like the rest of the system.

* refactor: migrate status badges to semantic status-color tokens

Migrate the genuine status badges to the status-* tokens: MCPConfigDialog
connection pills (info/warning/neutral/error/success + dot), MemoryUsageBadge
usage levels, and DialogImage quality badge (also gains dark-mode support it
previously lacked). Removes hardcoded colors and dark: twins.

* feat: add Alert component and migrate alert banners to it

Add a reusable Alert component (@librechat/client) with error/success/warning/
info/neutral variants backed by the status-color tokens, default per-variant
icons, and role=alert. Migrate the duplicated colored-div banners to it:
Auth ErrorMessage, RequestPasswordReset success, and the identical error boxes
in ToolSelectDialog, AssistantToolsDialog, and MCPToolSelectDialog.

* refactor: migrate remaining alert banners and error states to tokens

Migrate the last banners to the Alert component: ResetPassword success,
MessageContent connection error, and MemoryInfo storage-full errors. Tokenize
the Agents ErrorDisplay error state in place (icon badge, headings, message,
retry button) since it's a full error state, not a compact callout. Also
tokenize ResetPassword field-validation errors to text-text-destructive
(fixes the low-contrast dark:text-red-900).

* refactor: tokenize SidePanel Memories/Parameters/Bookmarks colors

Delete-confirm buttons to surface-destructive tokens (MemoryCardActions,
BookmarkCardActions), drop redundant text-white on submit Buttons (the variant
already sets it), legacy preset button green hover/focus to submit tokens, and
slider hover borders to border-light. Leaves DynamicCheckbox dark overrides for
a separate pass against the Checkbox component.

* refactor: tokenize Settings danger/destructive buttons

Map the DangerButton, the Data tab destructive actions (RevokeKeys, ClearChats,
DeleteCache), and the DeleteAccount button from bg-red-*/bg-destructive to the
surface-destructive tokens.

* refactor: tokenize Chat file-upload table and upload status colors

Tokenize TemplateTable th/td/border classes (surface-primary, border-light,
text-primary/secondary) and FileUpload status colors (text-text-secondary,
text-text-destructive, text-status-success) plus the import button hover.

* fix: explicit type annotations on Alert for isolatedDeclarations

@librechat/client builds with tsdown --isolatedDeclarations, which requires
exported consts to have explicit type annotations (TS9010). Annotate
alertVariants and Alert to match the Button.tsx pattern.

* refactor: add soft status-border token layer for Alert and lighten dark status foregrounds

* refactor: tokenize Chat menus, popovers, and message surfaces

* refactor: tokenize Chat message content, tool output, and file UI colors

* refactor: add semantic link color token and migrate hyperlinks to it

* refactor: tokenize Files and Auth surfaces, text, borders, and CTAs

* refactor: add accent-primary brand token; tokenize Nav/Input/Prompts/Endpoints colors

* refactor: tokenize Auth brand-green accents, Skills, Sharing, Plugins, MCP colors

* refactor: tokenize OAuth, Share, ui, Bookmarks, Tools, Messages, Web, SharePoint colors

* refactor: final solid-color cleanup (brand-green accents, neutral grays, error text)

* refactor: migrate status callout banners to status-subtle/border tokens

* refactor: tokenize token-usage gauge, mic, and oauth countdown status colors

* refactor: replace shadcn color vocabulary with semantic tokens

Remove the shadcn/ui color tokens (background, foreground, card, popover,
muted, accent, secondary, destructive, input) and migrate every usage to
LibreChat semantic surface/text/border tokens.

Add surface-inverted/text-inverted for the neutral inverted CTA and
surface-fixed/text-fixed for controls that must not flip with the theme
(favicon chips, QR container, carousel arrows). New tokens are defined once
in style.css (light + dark), createTailwindColors, the theme types,
applyTheme and the default/dark theme objects so they stay overridable at
runtime.

Collapse paired dark: color variants into the dark-aware tokens and tokenize
the remaining raw palette and white/black utilities, mapping status colors to
the status-* tokens and legacy ring-black/ring-white focus rings to
ring-text-primary.

Retain the background, primary and ring tokens, which are still referenced by
the SidePanel/Agents and SidePanel/Builder panels (excluded from this pass).

* refactor: tokenize remaining status, neutral and message-text colors

Map the leftover semantic colors to tokens: skill error/dirty states and the
selected-version/selected-skill highlights move to status-warning/status-success,
the global indicator to status-success, and the markdown message text to
text-text-primary. Drop the redundant dark: overrides on the dynamic checkbox,
which the Checkbox primitive already handles.

What remains is intentional and stays raw: categorical color sets (category
icons, principal avatars, per-tool toggle accents), brand marks, the
WCAG-tuned toast severities, code/diagram surfaces, scrims, and text-white on
submit/destructive action surfaces.

* refactor: remove unused CSS rules, dead comments, and duplicate keyframes

Drop ~829 lines of dead styles across style.css (2992->2355) and
mobile.css (323->131): unreferenced classes (legacy token utilities,
orphaned animations, form/prose/scrollbar leftovers), commented-out
blocks, and duplicate/orphaned keyframes. Library-injected (hljs, sandpack,
codemirror, markdown language) and dynamically-applied (scroll-animation,
icon sizes) classes were retained.

* fix: resolve ESLint and frontend test failures

- Format with prettier (Alert, MCPStatusBadge, ApiKeys, Memory, etc.) after
  --no-verify commits skipped the hook
- Localize the 'Or' auth divider (com_auth_or) instead of a bare literal
- Drop dead InvocationModePicker imports in Skill forms; fix VerifyEmail
  unused arg + useEffect deps
- Revert out-of-scope color edits in legacy Files/VectorStore views that
  carried pre-existing untranslated-string lint debt
- Update Memory tests to assert status-* tokens (text-status-error,
  bg-status-error-subtle) instead of the old hardcoded red classes

* refactor: migrate theme tokens to RGB channels for opacity support

Convert semantic + palette CSS variable values in style.css from hex to bare
'R G B' channel triplets, and emit Tailwind colors as
rgb(var(--token) / <alpha-value>) via createTailwindColors. This makes opacity
modifiers (bg-surface-primary/50, bg-border-medium/60, etc.) resolve correctly
and remain dark-aware, fixing ~26 existing usages that previously fell back to a
hardcoded light hex.

- Wrap direct var(--token) color usages in CSS rules as rgb(var(--token))
  (style.css, Dropdown.css, Tooltip.css) and two inline component styles
- applyTheme writes bare triplets to match the new wrapping
- shadcn tokens (HSL) and the JS palette (hex) are unchanged

* fix: prettier formatting after dev rebase

* refactor(client): migrate low-risk primitives to @librechat/client

Swap raw <label>, <textarea>, and native title= tooltips for the
@librechat/client Label, Textarea, and TooltipAnchor components across
Agents, Endpoints settings, Export modal, Prompts, Sharing, and Memory
dialogs. Add localization keys (scroll, sibling navigation, none
selected, select var) for the remaining swap waves.

* refactor(client): migrate buttons, inputs and labels to @librechat/client

Swap raw <button>, <input> and <label> elements for the @librechat/client
Button, Input and Label components across Auth, Chat, Conversations,
Endpoints, Nav, Prompts, Skills, Tools and Web. Preserve bespoke geometry
and behavior via cn className merging, keep data-testid/aria wiring, and
localize previously hardcoded aria-labels. Skip swaps that would break
floating-label animations, tiny bespoke controls or inline-text links.
Add com_ui_reload_page key.

* refactor(client): migrate dialogs, toggles and remaining controls to @librechat/client

Swap behavioral controls for @librechat/client equivalents: HeadlessUI
and legacy dialogs to OGDialog, native checkbox/switch to Checkbox/Switch
(onCheckedChange), and remaining buttons/inputs across Chat, Skills,
Tools, Sharing, Memories and Settings. Convert applicable native title=
tooltips to TooltipAnchor and localize close/scroll aria-labels. Skip
swaps that would break floating-label animations or bespoke select
behavior. Update co-located test mocks to provide the newly-used Button
and cn dependencies.

* style(client): soften dropdown and settings search inputs

Remove the heavy focus ring on the settings search and the searchable
Dropdown's search input, replacing it with a subtle border-light. Make
the search field background inherit the dropdown surface so it matches in
both light and dark mode, and reduce the Dropdown trigger border from
medium to light.

* refactor(client): migrate Agent Builder and Tool Library to @librechat/client

Swap raw buttons, inputs, labels, textareas and native title tooltips for
the @librechat/client Button/Input/Label/Textarea/TooltipAnchor components
across the Agent Builder panel (SidePanel/Agents) and the Tools
marketplace. Remove heavy input focus rings in favor of subtle borders,
soften dropdown trigger borders, and convert stray shadcn/raw colors in
touched lines to semantic tokens. Localize the tool delete aria-label and
toast messages. Update co-located test mocks to provide the newly-used
Button component.

* fix(client): keep Input border static on pointer focus

The pointer-focus override in Field.css used border-color: var(--border-light),
which became an invalid value after the theme moved to RGB channel tokens and
was silently dropped, letting the border fall back to currentColor (text-primary)
on mouse focus. Wrap it in rgb() so mouse focus produces no border, ring, or
outline change; keyboard focus keeps its ring for accessibility.

* refactor(client): remove residual shadcn color tokens

The background/primary/primary-foreground/ring and unused chart-* tokens were
retained only for the then-unmigrated Agent Builder. With that panel migrated,
replace the last usages with LibreChat semantic tokens (ring-primary/ring-ring
-> ring-text-primary; bg-primary/text-primary-foreground -> bg-surface-inverted
/text-text-inverted; text-primary -> text-text-primary; bg-background ->
bg-surface-primary) and drop the token definitions from createTailwindColors,
applyTheme, the theme objects, types, and style.css.

* fix(client): address semantic theme review feedback

* fix(client): use boolean Monaco hover option

* fix(client): resolve CI validation failures

* test(client): update shared component mocks

* fix(client): expose status tokens to runtime themes and document channel format

Add the status, text-destructive and border-destructive families to IThemeRGB,
IThemeVariables, IThemeColors, mapTheme and the bundled light/dark themes so
ThemeProvider consumers can theme Alert and the status badges instead of falling
back to the stylesheet palette.

Update the theme README to document the channel-triplet contract that the RGB
migration introduced, since the previous examples used complete CSS colors that
now produce invalid declarations.

* test(e2e): use accessible message action locators

* fix(client): address theme env, dialog padding and locked button review feedback

Expose every IThemeRGB token through REACT_APP_THEME_* instead of the
hand-maintained subset that omitted the status, destructive, inverted and
fixed families.

Drop the padding OGDialogContent contributes to the Tool Library so the
header divider spans the panel again, and stop disabled:opacity-100 from
overriding the locked delete-account button's dimmed state.

* fix(client): read theme environment variables from the build-time env

getThemeFromEnv read process.env, which vite-plugin-node-polyfills replaces
with an empty shim in the browser, so every REACT_APP_THEME_* value was
dropped and the loader always returned undefined.

Read import.meta.env instead and register the REACT_APP_THEME_ prefix with
Vite so the values are inlined at build time. The env source is now a
parameter, which lets the tests cover the mapping without mutating globals.

* fix(client): replace Tailwind classes that no longer resolve

Several class names in the client and shared component package emit no CSS
rule at all: legacy token- names with no definition, Tailwind v1/v4 names,
and plain typos. They fail silently past typecheck and tests.

- text-md -> text-base (Tailwind has no md font size)
- text-grey-100, text-tertiary -> text-text-tertiary
- text-token-secondary -> text-text-secondary
- bg-token-surface-primary/tertiary, bg-token-main-surface-secondary and
  border-token-border-hover -> their semantic tokens
- bg-surface, bg-surface-50 -> bg-surface-primary
- bg-surface-primary-hover -> bg-surface-hover
- outline-hidden -> outline-none where focus styling already exists
- drop focus:shadow-outline, border-d-0 and the malformed
  ring-offset-ring-offset, which have no meaningful replacement

MemoryArtifacts keeps its default outline instead of gaining outline-none,
since that button has no other focus indicator. MentionItem drops its dead
background rather than adopting one, which would have matched its hover
colour and erased the hover affordance.

Localize the two literal strings the pre-commit lint flagged in the touched
files, reusing the existing com_ui_upload_image and com_ui_more_count keys.

* feat: surface interrupt-steer escalation on waiting messages

The interrupt & steer feature shipped reachable only through the
composer chord, the send-button hovercard, and the composer button; a
message already waiting (queued for after the run, or steered and
parked at the next tool boundary) had no path to it. Both waiting
surfaces now carry one:

- Queued rows get an icon-only ZapOff escalation button beside the
  existing Steer primary. It routes through sendQueuedNow, which now
  takes a preempt option on its live-run path. The tooltip teaches the
  composer chord, derived through resolveComposerKeyDown so a rebound
  or yielded chord is never advertised.
- In-flight steer bubbles get an "Interrupt now" overflow entry with
  the same race rules as Edit: reclaim first, and only a `reclaimed`
  outcome resubmits (via retrySteer with preempt, swapping the chip
  for an interrupting one). `applied` and run-ended-mid-reclaim
  outcomes stop at the existing informational toasts, so the words can
  never land twice. Not offered on a steer already preempting.
- Every during-run overflow menu gains an "Always interrupt instead"
  toggle for steerInterruptsByDefault, next to the existing steer/queue
  default toggle. MenuEntry supports disabled for the new entries.

Only one interrupt can be unresolved at a time: while one preempt is
pending (or the run is paused on approval, where the server 409s),
every escalation control disables instead of racing the same seal.

Ten new tests across both surfaces; 381 green in the affected suites.

* fix: lock escalation across its reclaim window, keep the paused control visible, label as steer

Codex round 1, all three findings.

P2, escalation race. The single-interrupt invariant had a window between
clicking "Interrupt now" and the reclaim resolving, where no preempt
chip existed for the chip-derived gate to see: two bubbles escalated
back-to-back could both resubmit. A shared escalating flag (Jotai,
per-conversation) now covers the window and disables every escalation
control on both surfaces, and a fresh recheck before resubmitting
catches an interrupt armed elsewhere meanwhile (composer chord, queued
row); those words re-home to the queue with an informational toast
instead of breaking the invariant.

P2, unreachable paused state. canSteer is defined as
hasRealConvoId && !pausedOnApproval, so gating the button on canSteer
removed it exactly when it was meant to render disabled; the test only
passed on an impossible stub combination. The render gate is now
duringRunActive && (canSteer || pausedOnApproval), and the test uses the
real invariant.

P2, label semantics. "Interrupt & send now" borrowed the name of the
hard-abort action; this one preserves the partial answer and steers.
Renamed to "Interrupt & steer now" (com_ui_interrupt_steer_now).

Both behavior fixes counterfactually verified; 384 tests green across
the affected suites.

* fix: disable bubble escalation while the run cannot accept a steer

Codex round 2, one P2. Answer mode (ask_user_question) sets
duringRunActive false while pausedOnApproval stays false, since that
flag only detects approval-bearing tool calls. The bubble's escalation
entry stayed enabled there, so clicking it cancelled a healthy waiting
steer and the preempt resubmission bounced off RUN_PAUSED, degrading
the words to the queue. The entry now also disables on
!duringRunActive, matching the queued-row control's gate.

Counterfactually verified: reverting the gate fails the new
answer-mode test.

* fix: recheck live run state after the reclaim, not just at the click

Codex round 3, one P2, and it is the round-1 recheck principle applied
one level deeper: the entry-time disable cannot see a run that pauses
(tool approval, answer mode) while the reclaim round-trip is in flight,
and the .then closure held the render's stale steering controls, so the
resubmit would fire into a RUN_PAUSED rejection after the reclaim had
already surrendered the steer's boundary slot.

The escalation continuation now reads the LIVE controls through a
latest-ref: if the run can no longer accept a steer, the words re-home
to the queue with an informational toast instead of resubmitting, and
the resubmit itself also goes through the live controls.

Counterfactually verified: reading the stale closure instead of the ref
fails the new mid-reclaim pause test.

* refactor: make escalation one atomic server-side arm, in place

Codex round 4: four P2s, every one an interleaving of the same window —
escalation as reclaim-then-repost is a compound, non-atomic operation
whose continuation must revalidate the world (FIFO position lost, ref
assigned too late, no run fence, competing bubble actions). Rounds 1-3
patched that window with a lock and rechecks; round 4 shows the window
itself is the defect, so this removes it instead of guarding it again.

Escalation is now POST /chat/steer/arm: the server flips preempt on the
EXISTING queued item in one atomic store op (new IJobStore.armSteer; a
decode-patch-encode LSET Lua on Redis, an in-place mutation in memory),
fenced to the validated generation and refused once the queue closes.
The handler mirrors the steer POST's preempt contract exactly: durable
flag gated on the owner's recorded capability, volatile requestPreempt
fire-and-forget because the durable flag is the truth resume/handover
re-arm from.

By construction this resolves all four findings: FIFO survives (the
item never moves; the whole queue still drains in instruction order at
the seal), there is no continuation to hold stale controls, the store
op is fenced to the original run, and a competing Edit/Queue/Cancel
either beats the arm (armed:false, chip untouched) or operates on the
armed item, whose cancel already disarms.

The client escalation entry becomes one mutation: armed:true relabels
the chip in place (same steerId, same position), PREEMPT_UNSUPPORTED
and lost races toast honestly, and the round 1-3 machinery — the
escalating lock atom, the latest-ref, the post-reclaim rechecks and
their two toast strings — is deleted rather than extended.

Verified: 7 new handler tests on the real in-memory manager (including
FIFO preservation and the stale-generation fence), 2 Redis integration
tests against real Redis (in-place arm keeps order and every field;
missing/stale/closed all refuse), client suites 396 green.

* fix: decide capability inside the atomic arm, neutralize the lost-race toast

Codex round 5, both findings, both edges of the new arm design rather
than its mechanism.

P2, capability TOCTOU. A HITL resume on a rolling deploy rewrites
preemptCapable for the SAME generation, so the handler's read could go
stale between validation and the flag flip, arming a steer the live
owner cannot seal. armSteer now returns armed | missing | incapable,
with the owner's live capability part of the same atomic predicate as
the generation fence (HGET preemptCapable inside the Lua; the flat job
field, not a metadata blob — the in-memory store reads the same field).
The handler's pre-check is deleted rather than kept alongside; the
store predicate is the single source. New handler test rewrites the
capability after queueing and expects PREEMPT_UNSUPPORTED with the item
left unflagged; the Redis guards test now asserts the incapable refusal
against real Redis.

P2, ambiguous toast. armed:false covers injected, cancelled, re-homed,
and run-over alike, so telling the user the message "already reached
the agent" claimed one specific outcome. The lost-race branch now uses
a neutral message (com_ui_steer_arm_lost_race) and defers to the events
for what actually happened.

* fix: flip the escalation lock synchronously before the arm request

Codex round 6, one P2. Round 4 deleted the escalating flag along with
the reclaim continuation it guarded, but that left the one-interrupt
gate blind during the arm request's own round trip: the chip-derived
check cannot see an arm until its response relabels the chip, so on a
slow connection two bubbles could both arm before either response
landed. Double-arm is harmless server-side now (the run seals once and
drains the whole queue in order), but every escalation control
advertises "one interrupt at a time" by disabling, and the controls
must tell the truth.

The per-conversation escalating flag returns as a pure UX gate: set
synchronously at click, before the mutation, cleared on settlement, and
folded into interruptPending on both surfaces. Unlike its round 1-3
ancestor there is no continuation behind it to guard and no recheck to
pair with it.

Counterfactually verified: without the synchronous set, the two-bubble
race test arms twice. 207 tests green across the Chat Input suites.

* test(e2e): cover escalation of waiting messages through the real seal

Three mock-harness tests on E2E_SLOW_REPLY, a 160-chunk stream with no
tool boundary, so an in-thread steer part can ONLY come from a genuine
mid-stream seal — which makes each test a behavioral proof rather than
a UI check:

- Queued row escalation: the ZapOff button turns a waiting queued
  message into a preempt-armed steer (202 echoes preempt: true) that
  seals and injects, where the sibling steering.spec test proves the
  unescalated path waits for run end instead.
- Bubble in-place arm: an ordinary steer (202 with no preempt echo)
  waits as a bubble, POST /chat/steer/arm answers armed: true, the
  bubble relabels in place (same single bubble, same text, escalation
  no longer offered on reopen), and the armed steer seals mid-stream.
- Always-interrupt toggle: flipped from a waiting row's overflow menu,
  plain Enter now produces a preempt: true steer that seals in the SAME
  run, and the menu offers the way back. An afterEach clears the
  localStorage preference so a mid-test failure cannot leak
  preempt-by-default into the rest of the serial suite.

All three verified locally through the full harness (real backend, mock
LLM, seeded DB): 3 passed in 27s.

* feat: dedicated escalation arrow + shortcut, menu split into actions and preferences

The escalation was still half-hidden: the bubble only offered it inside
the overflow menu, and the tooltip taught the composer chord, which does
a different thing (interrupts with typed text, not this chip). Three
changes make it a first-class command:

- A shared EscalateNowButton (circular arrow, ghost-bordered like the
  composer's interrupt control) is always visible on BOTH surfaces:
  beside each queued row's Steer primary and on every waiting steer
  bubble next to its menu. It disappears once a steer is interrupting.
- A dedicated registry shortcut, escalateSteer (Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+.),
  editing-allowed and rebindable like every other action. Deliberately
  NOT an Enter chord: the composer owns every Enter chord, and the
  yield design rests on no default binding using Enter besides submit.
  Its handler clicks the newest enabled arrow control (bubbles beat
  queued rows), so the shortcut can never diverge from the button, and
  the arrow's tooltip teaches THIS command via the registry display.
- The overflow menus separate one-off actions from sticky behavior
  changes: Edit, Cancel, Queue, then a smaller "Preferences" section
  holding the queueing and always-interrupt toggles, each with the
  standard InfoHoverCard reusing the Settings panel's descriptions.
  "Interrupt & steer now" leaves the menu entirely.

386 client tests green, including a menu-structure test locking the
order and the absence of the escalation entry; bubble escalation tests
drive the visible arrow. The e2e spec's bubble test now clicks the
arrow, and a fourth test drives the dedicated shortcut end to end
through a real mid-stream seal.

* style: bind the escalation arrow to its message (variant A anatomy)

Two same-weight circles in a row read as one control group, leaving the
arrow's ownership ambiguous, and a floating arrow stops meaning anything
once several messages stack. The shared control now carries variant A's
anatomy: a thin divider binds a small SOLID arrow (filled, inverted) to
the message region on its left, and the menu ellipsis stays a bare
glyph, so the two affordances can no longer blur together — and the
divider+arrow pairing repeats cleanly per chip at N messages.

* chore: drop the unused within import CI lint caught

* fix: advertise the escalation shortcut only while the control is live

Codex on the e2e head, one P2: the tooltip appended the chord hint even
while the button was disabled, advertising a shortcut that does nothing
during an approval pause. The flagged control (InterruptNowButton) was
since replaced by the shared EscalateNowButton, which inherited the
pattern; the successor now omits the chord whenever the control is
disabled, matching the rule the during-run hovercard already follows.

* 🛑 feat: Preemptive Steer — server half (Interrupt & Steer, PR 2 of 3)

Lets the steer route ask the generating replica to seal its live model
stream at the next provider-safe boundary instead of waiting for a tool
step. The run is never aborted, job status never changes, the partial
answer is kept, and generation resumes in the same assistant message
after the injected steer. Consumes the SDK seam in @librechat/agents
(danny-avila/agents#335, #346).

Transport: IEventTransport gains a fenced emitPreempt/onPreempt pair
beside abort. RedisEventTransport fans PREEMPT out on the SAME events
channel and subscription (no new connection, key, or subscribe call);
onPreempt returns a registration-scoped unsubscribe with the same
replacement-safe state-identity guard onAbort uses. InMemory implements
neither — single-process preempt lives entirely in the runtime set.

Runtime state: RuntimeJobState carries the per-generation request set,
createdAt-fenced and capped at STEER_QUEUE_MAX_DEPTH, plus a bounded
`cleared` tombstone so a late cross-replica arm cannot resurrect a
request whose steer already drained. registerPreemptSubscription
mirrors the abort registration's double fence (runtime identity +
generation createdAt); releaseAbortSubscription retires BOTH listeners
and the armed set, so every terminal path drops preempt state for free.
Public surface: requestPreempt (arm + fenced publish, never a rejection
surface, never touches job status), isPreemptRequested (O(1)
level-triggered poll), noteSteersRemoved (drain/cancel bookkeeping +
fenced clear), clearPreemptRequests (empty-boundary disarm).

One drain body, two boundaries: createSteerDrainHook (PostToolBatch)
and createSteerPreemptBoundaryHook (PreemptBoundary) share
drainAndBuildInjections, so the two injection sites cannot drift — the
SDK's provider-safety argument rests on identical HumanMessage shapes.
The shared body builds injections incrementally under a swallow-all
catch (a mid-loop throw still injects what was applied — those parts
are already persisted), clears preempt requests in finally, and
disarms the generation when a boundary drains nothing.

Request path: POST /chat/steer accepts preempt: true. The guard ladder
is unchanged in order and in every status code. A preempt request is
NEVER a rejection reason — without the capability the steer still
enqueues and the 202 echoes preempt: false. Armed strictly after a
successful enqueue; cancel disarms. The capability is read from the
OWNING replica's recorded `preemptCapable` rather than the route
replica's own SDK probe, so a rolling deploy cannot label a steer
"interrupting" that the older owner will only inject at a tool step.

Durable label: SteerQueueItem.preempt → TPendingSteer.preempt, so a
parked/claimed/replayed chip keeps its wording.

Run wiring: createRun registers the PreemptBoundary hook and threads
RunConfig.preemption, both gated on isSteerPreemptSupported() — a
separate probe from isSteeringSupported(), so the client affordance can
never arm against an SDK that only injects at tool boundaries.
buildSteerWiring builds both hooks from one shared closures object, so
preemption survives HITL pause/resume for free.

Honest finalization: an empty preempt boundary persists and emits with
unfinished: true — the same contract an abort gets — re-marked
explicitly because BaseClient has already saved the row as
unfinished: false by that point.

Not changed: no new job status, store method, Lua, SSE event type,
endpoint, or authorization surface. abortJob, completeJob,
transitionStatus, closeAndDrainSteers, getResumeState, emitChunk,
applySteerPart and the whole abort path are untouched.

Tests: 120 packages/api steering specs (preempt lifecycle, tombstone,
fences, caps, terminal release, both-boundary drain parity,
level-triggered poll, request/cancel arming, owner-capability
degradation) plus 5 in api for buildSteerWiring gating, and 2
Redis-gated cross-replica transport specs.

* 🔒 fix: Codex round 2 — evict tombstones, scope the empty-boundary disarm, honest resumes

All four server findings were fresh consequences of the round-1 fixes,
which is the review doing exactly what it should.

- Tombstone cap refused new entries instead of evicting. Every drained
  or cancelled steer is tombstoned, not just preempting ones, so a
  generation that processed 20 steers exhausted the set and the
  late-arm race resurfaced silently. Now evicts oldest-first (Set
  iteration is insertion-ordered), with the budget named
  PREEMPT_TOMBSTONE_MAX rather than an inline expression.

- The empty-boundary disarm I added in round 1 wiped the generation's
  ENTIRE armed set. A second steer can enqueue and arm between the
  atomic drain returning empty and the disarm running — that arm is
  backed by a live, uninjected queue item and must survive. The drain
  now snapshots the armed ids BEFORE draining
  (getArmedPreemptIds) and clearPreemptRequests takes an explicit id
  list instead of clearing everything.

- HITL resume finalized with a hardcoded unfinished: false. The
  boundary hook is re-registered on resume via buildSteerWiring, so a
  resumed segment can end on an empty preempt boundary exactly like a
  fresh one; finalizeResumedTurn now reads getPreemptStats() and the
  halt reason, matching the normal request path.

- Ownership moves on resume, so the job's recorded preemptCapable must
  describe the replica that will actually generate. Refreshed before
  resumeCompletion; a job created on a capable replica that resumes on
  an older one during a rolling deploy no longer acknowledges steers as
  interrupting.

Tests: +3 (scoped disarm sparing a post-snapshot arm, oldest-first
tombstone eviction, id-list disarm). 122 packages/api steering specs
green.

* 🚨 fix: Codex round 3 — deserialize preemptCapable from Redis (feature was dead under Redis)

The P1 here is the most consequential defect in the whole feature, and
it was introduced by round 1's own capability fix.

- `RedisJobStore.serializeJob` writes booleans generically, so
  `preemptCapable` reached Redis — but `deserializeJob` is an EXPLICIT
  field map and had no line for it. Every `getJob()` therefore dropped
  the flag, `job.metadata.preemptCapable` was always undefined, and
  `handleSteerRequest` computed `preemptArmed: false` unconditionally.
  Interrupt & steer would have silently degraded to ordinary
  tool-boundary steering in EVERY Redis deployment — i.e. the feature
  shipping as a no-op in production while passing every in-memory test.
  Now deserialized, with a round-trip assertion in the metadata spec
  that fails (`Received: undefined`) against the unfixed store.

- The resume capability refresh moved from just-before
  `resumeCompletion` to immediately after `approvals.resolve` claims
  the run. That call already flips the job back to `running`, so the
  steer route accepts requests from that instant; leaving the refresh
  135 lines later (across the whole client reconstruction) left a real
  window where a steer read the PREVIOUS owner's capability. Not the
  fully atomic transition Codex suggested — that reaches into the
  approvals Lua — but it shrinks the window from seconds to one await,
  which is proportionate for a label-accuracy issue.

Refuted: "avoid triggering preemption inside subagents". The premise —
that the run-wide poll can seal a subagent stream — does not hold
against the shipped SDK. Child graphs are constructed with
`subagentScope: true` (SubagentExecutor) and `preemption` is NOT
propagated into child inputs, while `canClaimPreemptSeal()` requires
`!subagentScope && preemption != null`. Both conditions fail
independently, so a subagent can never claim a seal and the boundary
cannot fire with `agentId` set. The `input.agentId != null` guard in
the hook is defensive depth, not the thing standing between us and the
described failure.

140 packages/api specs green.

* 🔁 fix: Codex round 4 — re-arm durable interrupt steers when resume moves owners

- An arm lives only in the owning replica's runtime plus a transient
  pub/sub message, while the steer's `preempt` flag is durable on the
  queue item. A HITL resume landing on a different replica therefore
  started with an empty armed set and a poll stuck false, so an
  interrupt the user had already been ACKed for silently waited for an
  ordinary tool boundary. New `GenerationJobManager.rearmQueuedPreempts`
  rebuilds the armed set by peeking the durable queue (fenced on the
  generation) and re-arming every item flagged `preempt`; resume calls
  it right after claiming. Safe by construction: every item peeked is
  still queued, so no drained steer can be resurrected.

- Capability-refresh failure now logs at error rather than warn, but
  deliberately does NOT fail the resume — see the reply on that thread.

Tests: +2 (rebuild from queue arms only the flagged item and reports
the count; a stale generation arms nothing). 124 packages/api steering
specs green.

* 📡 fix: Codex round 5 — acknowledge only what was actually armed

- A cross-replica arm was fire-and-forget: `emitPreempt` logged its own
  publish failure and `requestPreempt` returned void, so the route
  answered `preempt: true` even when the owner never armed a poll. The
  steer still injected at the next tool boundary, but the chip claimed
  an interrupt that could not happen — and unlike HITL resume, an
  ordinary running generation had no durable reconciliation to recover
  it.

  `emitPreempt` now resolves to the subscriber count and rejects on
  failure; `requestPreempt` is async and returns whether the arm truly
  landed (owned locally, or delivered to at least one subscriber). The
  202 reports THAT rather than what was asked for, so the chip relabels
  to ordinary steering exactly as it does for a capability-degraded
  deployment. Errors are swallowed into `false` — an unarmed interrupt
  is a downgrade, never a failed steer.

- The owner capability is re-read immediately before enqueue rather
  than reused from the top of the guard ladder. `checkAgentAccess` and
  file resolution are awaits, so a request can span an entire HITL
  pause/resume that moves ownership to a replica with different
  capability and rewrites that very flag. Only paid for by requests
  that actually asked to interrupt.

Tests: +3 (not-armed when the publish reaches nobody; armed when this
replica owns the generation; a throwing publish downgrades instead of
propagating). 127 packages/api steering specs green.

* 🎯 fix: Codex round 6 — real ownership, confirmed disarms, and a CI regression of my own

Three review findings plus three CI failures the round-5 commit caused.

Review:
- Ownership came from `runtimeState`, which a cross-replica `getJob`
  populates with a FACADE runtime on any replica that merely read the
  job. Matching `createdAt` therefore proved only "we looked at this
  job", so a non-owner could arm nothing and report success. Ownership
  now comes from `ownedJobs`, the actual owner map.
- `armPreemptIds` returns how many ids it accepted, and a local arm is
  only reported as armed when one was. A tombstoned id (its steer
  drained at an ordinary boundary mid-request) no longer answers
  `preempt: true` for an interrupt that cannot happen.
- The cancel disarm is awaited. A dropped clear is worse than a dropped
  arm: the owner keeps a level-triggered request for a steer that no
  longer exists, seals its next chunk and truncates an unrelated
  answer. The boundary drain's own call stays non-blocking — there the
  owner is local, so the disarm is already effective and awaiting the
  informational publish would only delay injection.
- Subscriber count is NOT read as proof of owner receipt: the count
  includes this replica's own facade subscription. A successful publish
  reports armed, a rejected one does not. Documented rather than
  papered over — see the acknowledgement-semantics note on the PR.

CI regressions from round 5, all mine:
- `registerPreemptSubscription` was AWAITED at both runtime-init sites,
  so job creation blocked on a second Redis channel subscription and
  hung when that subscribe was slow. Abort is awaited because a missed
  abort strands a run; a missed preempt only degrades that steer to the
  next tool boundary, so it now registers without gating createJob.
- Two api specs mocked `@librechat/api` without the newly imported
  `isSteerPreemptSupported`, so the call threw before createJob; and one
  exact-match assertion needed the new `preemptCapable` metadata field.
- My own Redis integration spec asserted arm-before-clear ordering,
  which two publishes carry no guarantee of — the receiving tombstone
  exists precisely because of that. Now asserts delivery and payload
  fidelity, order-independent.

158 packages/api specs, 27 api specs green.

* 🧭 fix: Codex round 7 — settle the acknowledgement semantics (Option A)

Round 7's second finding is the incoherence I flagged on the PR: the
route persisted `preempt: true` on the durable queue item while
returning `preempt: false` when delivery could not be confirmed. Those
two then disagreed, and `rearmQueuedPreempts` trusts the DURABLE one —
so a resumed owner would honour an interrupt the client had explicitly
been told degraded to ordinary steering.

Rather than patch the disagreement, this settles the meaning:

`preempt` in the 202 means "queued as an interrupt request", NOT "a
seal is guaranteed". It mirrors `SteerQueueItem.preempt` exactly, so
the response, the durable record, and the resume-time re-arm can never
disagree. The gates that ARE knowable stay — the owner's recorded
capability and a successful enqueue. Everything past that degrades to
the documented fallback of injecting at the next tool boundary.

A route cannot synchronously know whether another replica will seal:
proving it needs a correlated request/response over pub-sub, and even
that only proves the owner heard, not that it is still streaming when
the arm lands. Four rounds of tightening this boolean each surfaced a
narrower case; the sequence does not converge, so the invariant is now
"the flag describes the durable decision" and an unconfirmed arm logs a
warning instead of rewriting the answer.

Also from this round: a failed disarm publish is retried once and its
outcome reported. `handleSteerCancel` keeps `removed: true` — the steer
really did leave the queue, and saying otherwise would make the client
re-show a chip for a steer that can never arrive — and adds
`disarmed: false` so the residual risk is visible rather than swallowed.
Damage stays bounded regardless: the empty-boundary self-clear disarms
the generation after a single seal.

Tests: +1 pinning the response/durable-flag invariant. 159
packages/api specs green.

* 🧹 fix: Codex round 8 — remove the unverifiable disarm signal

Round 8 found the same over-promise on the disarm side that round 7
corrected on the arm side, so this applies the same answer rather than
patching around it.

The `disarmed: false` field added in round 7 was both unreliable and
unused: a resolved publish is not proof the owner heard it (the
delivery count includes this replica's own facade subscription), and it
was never threaded into `CancelSteerResponse` or read by any client. A
signal that claims a certainty the transport cannot provide is worse
than no signal — it invites callers to trust it.

Removed from the response. The retry stays, because it genuinely
reduces the failure rate, and `noteSteersRemoved` still returns whether
the publish succeeded FOR LOGGING, now documented explicitly as
"published without error", not "the owner disarmed".

Disarm is best effort with a bounded, self-healing failure: if the
clear is lost the owner seals once, the empty-boundary self-clear
disarms the generation, and the turn is persisted `unfinished: true`
rather than silently truncated. Tightening that further needs a
correlated request/response over pub-sub with a timeout — noted on the
PR as the deliberate boundary of this design rather than an oversight.

130 packages/api steering specs green.

* 🧽 fix: Codex round 9 — spend snapshot arms on nonempty drains too

The round-6 scoping fix only cleared the pre-drain snapshot when the
drain came back EMPTY. On a nonempty drain the `finally` cleared just
the drained ids, so a stale arm — typically a cancel whose
cross-replica clear was lost — survived the boundary. It would then
immediately seal the continuation meant to answer the steer that had
just been injected, and land on an empty boundary as
`preempt_incomplete`: the interrupt appears to work, and the answer to
it is truncated.

A boundary that runs has spent its seal, so everything armed at
snapshot time is spent whether or not it came back from the drain. The
`finally` now clears the union of the snapshot and the drained ids.
Arms that land AFTER the snapshot are still spared — their queue items
are live and uninjected, which is the property round 6 added.

Also fixes an api-workspace CI failure of mine: `resume.spec.js` stubs
`GenerationJobManager` wholesale, and the round-3/4 resume work added
two calls (`updateMetadata`, `rearmQueuedPreempts`) the stub did not
define, so 34 specs threw. Stub extended.

Tests: +2 (a nonempty drain clears a stale snapshot arm; a nonempty
drain spares an arm that landed mid-drain). Counterfactually verified —
the stale-arm spec fails against the unfixed drain. 132 packages/api
specs, 60 resume specs green.

* fix: never let a failed preempt subscription reject into the void

registerPreemptSubscription is called detached at both sites, so a
rejected Redis SUBSCRIBE became an unhandled rejection — process-fatal
under Node's default --unhandled-rejections=throw. The comment already
promised this path merely degrades steering; it now does.

Swallowed and logged inside the registration rather than at each call
site, so a future third caller cannot reintroduce the trap. Losing the
channel costs this generation's cross-replica preempts, not the server:
same-replica arming is runtime state and still works, and remote arms
fall back to the next tool boundary.

Verified counterfactually — the new spec surfaces SUBSCRIBE failed as an
unhandled rejection against the unfixed registration.

* docs: state the real blast radius of a failed preempt subscription

LibreChat's own entrypoints install a global unhandledRejection handler
that logs and keeps serving, so the escaping rejection this guards was
never fatal to this server — only to another consumer of @librechat/api
that installs no handler. The fix stands either way; the comment just
should not overstate what it prevents.

* test: cover the cross-replica preempt hop with two manager instances

Every other preempt test runs against a single manager, so the hop that
actually carries an interrupt in production had no coverage: the steer POST
lands on whichever replica the balancer picks, which is usually not the one
generating. Non-owner publishes, owner arms, owner's level-triggered poll
flips — none of that was exercised end to end.

Two GenerationJobManagerClass instances are a faithful replica pair here.
runtimeState and ownedJobs are private instance fields, there is no
module-level mutable state between them, and createStreamServices duplicates
a dedicated subscriber connection per call, so separate OS processes would
exercise the same objects over the same Redis.

Both assertions verified counterfactually against real Redis:
- Deleting the preemptCapable deserialization in RedisJobStore fails this
  with 'Expected: true, Received: undefined' — the exact P1 that shipped past
  every in-memory test and would have made the feature a silent no-op on
  every Redis deployment.
- Dropping the non-owner arm publish fails it with 'Received: false'.

* test: remove the fixed sleeps and vacuity from the cross-replica preempt test

Codex round 11, both findings, both on the test I added last commit.

P2 — the 300ms waits were load-bearing. Redis pub/sub never replays and the
owner's SUBSCRIBE is detached, so on a slow CI worker the publish could land
before anyone was listening and the test would fail against correct code.
Now it republishes until the owner's state converges, which is safe because
arms and clears are idempotent set writes keyed by steerId. Side effect: the
tests got ~10x faster (85ms/57ms vs 929ms/606ms) since they finish on
delivery rather than on a timer.

P3 — afterEach destroyed only the transports, leaving each manager alive in
its own cleanup-interval closure, still working against a dead transport.
Now tracks the managers and awaits destroy(), which disposes the job store
and its timer too. Matches how the rest of this file cleans up.

Fixing the sleeps exposed a third problem codex did not flag: the stale-arm
test could pass vacuously, because an undelivered arm and a fenced one look
identical. It now brackets the stale publish between two control arms — the
first proves the owner is listening before the stale one is sent, the second
proves it has had its chance to arrive.

Verified counterfactually against real Redis, and stable over 5 runs:
- dropping the preemptCapable deserialization fails with 'Received: undefined'
- dropping the non-owner arm publish times out both tests
- removing the generation fence fails the stale test with
  ["control-before", "steer-stale", "control-after"] — which also confirms
  the bracketing orders as intended rather than by luck

* fix: gate interrupt on the OWNER's capability alone, not the route's

Codex round 12. The comment above this gate already said 'the OWNER's
recorded capability, not this replica's probe' — and then the code ANDed in
isSteerPreemptSupported(), which is exactly this replica's probe. The
contradiction dates to the original commit; round 6 made the gate
owner-scoped and wrote that comment without removing the local conjunct.

The route never seals. It enqueues and publishes an arm, neither of which
touches the SDK, so during a rolling deploy a steer landing on an
un-upgraded replica silently lost its interrupt even though the owner could
seal. When the route IS the owner the probe is redundant anyway: the flag it
would consult is the one this process wrote at createJob.

The real degradation path is unchanged and still tested — an owner that
recorded no capability relabels to an ordinary steer. The test that pinned
the local probe asserted an impossible same-replica state (capable metadata
plus an incapable local SDK, when the metadata is written from that probe);
it now pins the mixed-SDK direction instead, and fails with
'Expected: true, Received: false' if the probe is put back.

* fix: reconcile arms at handover, and stop holding the 202 on a publish

Codex round 13, two of three findings.

P2 — rearmQueuedPreempts only ever ADDED. A replica that merely read the job
still installs a facade runtime and subscribes, so it can accept an arm and
then miss the best-effort clear that follows the drain. HITL resume promotes
that facade to owner, the union keeps the orphan, and the first resumed
stream seals on a steer no longer in the queue, drains nothing, and
truncates the resumed answer as preempt_incomplete. acquireResumedJobOwnership
only sets ownedJobs, so nothing else was clearing it. The durable queue is
the sole authority at a handover: arms it does not back are now disarmed and
tombstoned, so an in-flight publish cannot revive them either.

Worth recording that my own independent review raised this and my verifier
refuted it. Codex found it separately; two reviewers converging should have
outweighed one refutation.

P2 — the route awaited the arm publish before answering. The 202 reports
capability, not delivery, so the await could not change the response; it only
exposed the caller to Redis latency after the queue item was already durable.
A client that times out and retries mints a second steer while the first
stays queued, injecting the same instruction twice, whereas a lost publish
merely takes the tool-boundary fallback. Detached, with both outcomes logged.

All three tests verified counterfactually: union-only rearm fails the two new
handover specs, and re-awaiting the publish hangs the stalled-publish spec
until jest kills it.

* fix: snapshot arms before reading the queue at handover

Codex round 14 — a regression from my own round-13 fix, and a worse failure
than the one it corrected.

Round 13 read the durable queue first, then tombstoned any armed id the
snapshot did not back. But approvals.resolve reopens steering before
reconciliation runs, so another replica can commit a preempt steer and
publish its arm while the peek is in flight. That arm is then present locally
but absent from a snapshot taken before the steer existed, so a LIVE
interrupt the route already acknowledged got dropped — and tombstoned, which
blocks the re-arm, making it unrecoverable rather than merely late.

Fixed by inverting the two reads rather than by locking or paying a second
round trip. A steer is durably enqueued BEFORE its arm is published, so any
id in an arms-first snapshot was already queued when it was armed, and the
later peek must observe it unless it has since drained — which is exactly the
orphan this reconciliation exists to drop. Arms landing after the snapshot
are simply not candidates.

Also re-checks runtime identity across the await, since the generation can be
replaced while the queue read is in flight.

New spec injects a steer + arm during the peek and verifies it survives;
against the round-13 ordering it fails with Received array: [].

* fix: bound the cancel disarm wait and fence enqueue to its generation

Codex round 15.

P2 — the cancel awaited its disarm publish unbounded. ioredis queues
commands during an outage rather than rejecting, so that await could hang for
the length of the outage with the steer ALREADY durably cancelled; a client
that gives up then treats the cancel as failed and restores a chip for a
steer that can never produce an applied event. Every successful cancel
publishes, so ordinary steers were exposed too, not only preemptive ones.
Now bounded at 1s, with the publish continuing behind it — its retry and
logging are unchanged, it is just no longer in front of the response. This is
the sibling of round 13's arm-publish finding; I fixed one path and left this
one.

P3 — enqueue was not fenced to the generation the capability decision was
made against. The access checks, file resolution and owner re-read are all
awaits, so the run can be replaced before the enqueue: the item then lands on
the REPLACEMENT queue while the durable preempt flag and the arm still name
the previous epoch, the arm is fenced out at the owner, and the 202 promises
an interrupt that cannot happen. enqueueSteer now takes an expected
generation, mirroring drain/peek, and the Redis path enforces it inside
STEER_ENQUEUE_LUA so the check is atomic with the push rather than racing it.

All three new specs verified counterfactually, including the Lua guard
against real Redis (removing it returns 1 where -1 is required).

*  feat: Interrupt & Steer — client half (PR 3 of 3)

Makes preemptive steering reachable. Consumes the server contract from
PR 2 (POST /chat/steer `preempt`, echoed on the 202) and the SDK seam
in @librechat/agents 3.3.5.

Settings shape follows the agreed correction, NOT the earlier plan
draft: `steerInterruptsByDefault` is a boolean ORTHOGONAL to
`duringRunDefaultAction` — that enum still chooses steer-vs-queue, the
new boolean chooses how soon a steer lands. This deliberately avoids
widening the enum to three values, which would have silently broken two
hard-coded binary TOGGLES (`DuringRunAction.tsx`'s setter and
`SteerMenu`'s `useDefaultToggleEntry`, both `prev === 'steer' ? … : …`)
where a third value collapses to the wrong branch and one click erases
the setting.

- useSteering: `submitSteer` takes an opts bag and threads `preempt`
  into the POST, the optimistic chip, and the failure chip. The ACK
  relabels from the SERVER's echo, so a deployment that cannot seal
  mid-stream downgrades the chip's wording instead of erroring — the
  entire UX surface of capability degradation. New `interruptSteer`
  reuses the whole chip lifecycle and degradation ladder, and falls
  back to `interruptAndSend` when `!canSteer`, because steering needs a
  server-side job and an always-visible button would otherwise be dead
  for the whole first turn. `steerFromComposer` honours the new
  preference.

- Composer: always-visible `InterruptSteerButton` with one fixed
  meaning (stop now, keep what's written), disabled on a paused run to
  pre-empt the server's 409, `type="button"` so it never steals the
  form's Enter submit, RTL-correct margins. A fourth hovercard row on
  the during-run send button, and ⌘/Ctrl+Shift+Enter routed AHEAD of
  the bare ⌘/Ctrl+Enter branch that would otherwise swallow it.

- Chips: an in-flight preempt chip reads "Interrupting" with a ZapOff
  glyph; `preempt` survives reconnect through `seedSteerChips`.

- `RunEnd.interruptArmed`, `drainAfterAbortByIndex`, `useQueueDrain`,
  `stopGenerating` and `interruptAndSend` are untouched — the preempt
  path deliberately shares none of the abort machinery.

Tests: 7 new specs (posts preempt, turn-1 fallback, empty-text refusal,
default route with and without the preference, server-echo relabel,
double-click). 66 useSteering specs green; tsc and lint clean.

Round-1 review fixes folded in:

- P1: interrupt & steer no longer hard-aborts a run paused on tool
  approval. `canSteer` is false there, so the fallback was routing the
  keyboard and hovercard paths into `interruptAndSend` — discarding the
  partial answer, the exact opposite of what the action promises. The
  fallback is now scoped to the missing-conversation case only, and a
  paused run refuses outright (the standalone button was already
  disabled; the guard now lives where all three paths reach it).

- The preference no longer leaks into the explicit Steer action.
  `steerFromComposer` backs both the default Enter route AND the
  explicit hovercard row / Ctrl+Enter alternate; applying
  `steerInterruptsByDefault` inside it made ordinary Steer interrupt and
  the two rows indistinguishable. It now takes an explicit argument that
  only `submitDuringRun`'s default route sets.

- Retry preserves preemption: a failed interrupt-steer chip keeps
  `preempt: true`, and `retrySteer` now forwards it rather than silently
  resubmitting as an ordinary tool-boundary steer.

- ⌘/Ctrl+Shift+Enter defers to a rebound submit shortcut, mirroring the
  bare ⌘/Ctrl+Enter branch — a user who bound submit to that chord keeps
  getting submit.

Round-2 fix: the preempt label now survives the page-reload resume path
too. `seedSteerChips` (useResumableSSE) and `restoreSteerChips`
(useResumeOnLoad) are two independent TPendingSteer→PendingSteer
mappers with near-identical bodies; the first carried the flag and the
second silently dropped it, so an armed interrupt reverted to plain
"Steering" after a reload. Swept: those are the only two in production
code. The reclaim/convert paths deliberately omit it — a queued
follow-up starts its own turn, so there is nothing to interrupt.

* fix: yield the interrupt-steer chord only to a submit shortcut bound to it

The previous guard skipped the Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+Enter branch whenever ANY
submitMessage override existed. Rebinding submit to something unrelated
(Ctrl+J) or unbinding it entirely then fell through to the override
resolver, which returns 'none' for shifted Enter — silently removing the
shortcut the hovercard still advertises.

Compare the pressed chord against the configured one instead. The
adjacent bare Ctrl/Cmd+Enter branch keeps its any-override guard on
purpose: that chord IS the default submit chord, so once submit moves
the resolver should own it.

The predicate already existed inside resolveSubmitOverrideAction; pulled
it out as bindingsMatch so both sites compare chords the same way. That
call is behavior-preserving — eventBinding.key is 'Enter' by the early
return, and equal hashes imply equal keys, so the dropped explicit key
check was redundant.

* fix: disable the Interrupt & steer menu row while paused on approval

interruptSteer hard-refuses when the run is paused for tool approval, but
the hovercard row was never gated, so it rendered enabled and clicking it
did nothing at all — no chip, no queue entry, no toast — at exactly the
moment a user is trying to say "stop, don't run that command". The
standalone button already gates on pausedOnApproval; the row contradicted
it.

Gated on pausedOnApproval rather than !canSteer like the steer row above,
because canSteer is also false before a conversation exists, where
interruptSteer deliberately falls back to interruptAndSend and the row
must stay live for the whole first turn.

Tests pin both directions and were verified counterfactually: removing the
gate fails the paused case, and using !canSteer fails the first-turn case.

* test: render the during-run hovercard eagerly instead of driving Ariakit

The new spec passed locally and failed all four cases on CI's Ubuntu and
Windows shards: Ariakit's show path keys off pointer geometry, which jsdom
reports as zeros, so whether a synthetic mouseEnter opens the hovercard is
environment-dependent. Driving it was testing Ariakit's hover behavior, not
which rows this component disables.

Mocking the three Ariakit primitives renders the rows unconditionally and
drops the fake timers. Both counterfactuals still fail as they should:
removing the gate fails the paused case, !canSteer fails the first-turn case.

* test(e2e): cover interrupt & steer sealing mid-stream

The mock Playwright suite covered every sibling during-run action — steer at
a tool boundary, steer degrading to a queued follow-up, queue, and interrupt
& send — but not interrupt & steer, the one this stack adds.

Uses E2E_SLOW_REPLY, which streams pure text with no tools, so the scenario
is the same one where an ordinary steer provably degrades to a queued
follow-up turn. Injecting in-thread there is something only a mid-stream
seal can do, which makes the assertion discriminating rather than incidental:
the steer part lands in the response, the final chunk never arrives, the text
written before the seal survives, and no follow-up turn pair is created.

* test(e2e): assert the run resumes after the seal, not just that it sealed

The other four assertions are all satisfied by a seal that killed the run:
the steer part is persisted by applySteer during the drain, before the
continuation starts, so 'sealed and resumed' and 'sealed and died' were
indistinguishable — and resuming is the whole difference from interrupt &
send.

The continuation answers the injected steer, whose text carries no
fake-model marker, so getLatestUserText falls through to the default reply.
That string ('E2E mock reply') is distinct from the setup turn's
('E2E reply <label>'), so seeing it proves generation restarted rather than
matching text that was already on screen.

The test itself is confirmed working: it ran as 104/121 in the Playwright
job on 0ece357170 and the run concluded success.

* test(e2e): drop the resume assertion pending an unresolved question

The assertion that the run visibly resumes after the seal fails
deterministically in CI across all three retries. Every other assertion in
the test passes, so the chord, the server preempt, the seal, and the in-thread
injection all work; what fails is only the continuation's reply becoming
visible.

I could not determine from CI logs whether that is the mock harness not
surfacing a continuation in a no-tool scenario or generation genuinely
stopping after the seal, and I am not willing to weaken it into something
that passes either way — that would convert a real question into false
assurance. Reverted to the four assertions that hold, with the open question
recorded in the test and raised on the PR.

* fix: yield the interrupt chord to any bound shortcut, and move the Enter hint

Codex round 1 on this PR (its first — #14519's rounds predate these files).

P2 — the chord yielded only to a rebound submitMessage. This composer
handler runs before the document-level one in useKeyboardShortcuts, and that
one does not check defaultPrevented, so binding any composer-allowed action
(focusChat, focusSearch, showShortcuts) to Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+Enter fired BOTH:
the run was interrupted and the bound action ran. Now yields to any chord the
user has bound. No default binding uses this chord, so it only ever yields to
a deliberate rebinding.

P2 — with steerInterruptsByDefault on, plain Enter routes through
submitDuringRun and preempts, but the hovercard still put the ⏎ hint on the
ordinary Steer row, whose click deliberately does NOT preempt. The same row
advertised a key that did something else. The hint now follows the
preference: ⏎ moves to Interrupt & steer, and the Steer row shows none
because no key reaches it in that mode. I had declined this twice on the
grounds that the behaviour split is deliberate — it is, and it is unchanged;
the finding was about the label, which was a different claim and a correct
one.

Lint also caught a real bug in the first fix: boundShortcutChords was missing
from the handler's dependency array, so a rebinding would not have taken
effect until the callback was recreated for another reason.

Both verified counterfactually; 179 client specs green.

* fix: resolve every composer Enter chord through one decision table

Codex round 2: yielding the preempt branch to a bound chord dropped
execution into the bare Ctrl/Cmd branch below it, which ignores Shift,
and past that into the submit tail, where isCtrlEnter is true for the
chord. So rebinding focusChat, focusSearch, or showShortcuts to
Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+Enter fired the alternate action or a submit AND the
document-level shortcut, consuming the draft.

Two rounds in a row landed in this handler because the guard chain
decided "whose chord is this?" piecemeal inside individual branches,
with fall-through between them. This extracts the entire pipeline into
resolveComposerKeyDown (utils/shortcuts, beside
resolveSubmitOverrideAction, which it absorbs as a step): one pure
decision table where every verdict is terminal, so the fall-through
class is gone rather than patched around.

The yield rule is now the first gate before all branches: an Enter
chord bound to any shortcut the document handler runs while typing
(EDITING_ALLOWED_SHORTCUTS, hoisted out of the handler and shared by
both dispatchers) is left entirely to that handler. This also closes
the identical latent holes in the branches codex did not flag: bound
Alt+Enter and Ctrl/Cmd+Enter chords double-fired the same way during a
run, and the idle submit tail consumed bound chords too. A chord bound
to a shortcut the document handler does NOT run while typing keeps its
composer meaning; there is nothing to collide with, and yielding would
just make the chord dead.

Also merged the spec file round 0 added at utils/__tests__/ into the
pre-existing utils/shortcuts.spec.ts (duplicate coverage at a second
path) and dropped the isNonShiftEnter+filesLoading preventDefault,
which was subsumed by the unconditional one below it.

The table has a spec locking every verdict. Counterfactually verified:
removing the yield gate fails exactly the three yield tests. Full
client suite green apart from six suites that fail identically without
this change (local data-provider dist drift in unrelated areas).

* fix: yield Alt+Enter to a rebound submit, derive hovercard hints from the decision table

Codex round 3, both findings.

P2, Alt+Enter submit rebinding. The interrupt branch reserved Alt+Enter
unconditionally, so rebinding submitMessage to Alt+Enter meant the
user's own submit chord aborted the run and consumed the draft as
interrupt & send. Now guarded with the same bindingsMatch yield the
preempt branch already had; the chord falls through to the submit
override resolution and submits the default action.

P2, hovercard hints. The rows advertised hardcoded chords, so a chord
rebound to an editing-allowed global shortcut (yielded by the decision
table) or claimed by a rebound submit still appeared as Steer, Queue,
Interrupt & steer, or Interrupt & send. The hovercard now asks the same
decision table the composer executes what each canonical chord does and
only labels a row with a chord that still triggers it. That also fixes
two dishonest hints codex did not flag: with Enter-to-send off, plain
Enter inserts a newline during a run (the primary row advertised it
anyway) and Ctrl/Cmd+Enter submits the default action (the alternate
row claimed it). The default-action hint now moves to Ctrl/Cmd+Enter in
that mode.

The effective bindings (submitOverride plus yielded chords) moved from
useTextarea into a shared useComposerBindings hook so the handler and
the hints read the same source. resolveComposerKeyDown now takes a
KeyChordSource pick of the event fields it reads, letting the hovercard
pass synthetic chords.

Counterfactually verified: reverting the Alt guard fails the new
resolver test and the hint suppression test. 353 tests across the
affected suites green; the two failing hook suites (useVisibleTools,
useResumableSSE) fail identically without these changes (local
data-provider dist drift).

* fix: never advertise a chord on a disabled hovercard row

Codex round 4, one P2. The Interrupt & steer row kept showing its chord
while disabled for tool approval, but pressing it reaches
interruptSteer's pausedOnApproval guard and no-ops. Fixed as a render
rule rather than a per-row patch: a disabled row never shows its kbd,
since its action refuses the chord by the same guard that disabled it.
That also covers the disabled Steer row, whose alternate-action hint
had the identical hole through steerFromComposer's canSteer refusal.

Counterfactually verified: reverting the render guard fails the new
test.

* 🪶 fix: Yield Soft Default Model Spec to Agent Picks in Picker-Only Deployments

The `hasEphemeralModelOptions` gate makes the soft default canonical whenever
the selector offers no ephemeral endpoint → model options, so lingering
endpoint/model residue never strands a new chat on an unselectable endpoint.
That gate swept in agent and assistant selections too: under an agents-only
allow-list (`addedEndpoints: [agents]`), every New Chat re-armed the soft spec
and discarded the agent the user had just selected, with no way to make the
choice stick.

An agent pick is the one real selection a picker-only deployment offers, so it
now yields like any other selection, while endpoint/model residue keeps falling
to the soft default.

- Add `hasSelectableEntitySelection`: the stored setup yields when it names a
  non-ephemeral agent_id (or an assistant_id) on an endpoint the allow-list and
  endpoints config still expose. Ephemeral ids, and picks whose endpoint has
  since left the allow-list, stay residue so a stale entity cannot strand a new
  chat.
- Invert the three unit cases that asserted the soft default outranking a stored
  agent under an agents-only allow-list; add coverage for assistants, prioritized
  configs, ephemeral agent ids, endpoint/model residue, an endpoints config
  without agents, and the pre-load allow-list path (35 cases, was 29).
- Add an e2e regression test: under an intercepted agents-only allow-list, a
  selected agent survives New Chat and a cold load, while a cleared instance
  still lands on the soft default.

* 🧹 chore: Type the Intercepted Startup Config in the Soft Default E2E

The agents-only allow-list interception cast the `/api/config` response to
`{ modelSpecs?: Record<string, unknown> }`, discarding the startup-config schema
at the exact point the test rewrites an API response — so a future config shape
change would go unchecked here. Reuse `TStartupConfig` instead, and only rewrite
`modelSpecs` when the response actually carries it rather than fabricating it.

🎯 feat: Tool Intent Label Capability (tool_intents) (#14499)
* 🎯 feat: Tool Intent Label Capability (tool_intents)

Adds the fourth member of the per-tool capability family (defer_loading,
allowed_callers, run_in_background): an admin capability
AgentCapabilities.tool_intents plus a per-tool
tool_options[name].describe_intent flag. Opted-in tools get an optional
intent string injected as the FIRST property of their schema — one
model-authored sentence per call, streamed to the client as the call's
live status label (args already reach the client verbatim, so no new
event plumbing). Native host tools (web_search, create_file/edit_file,
set_memory/delete_memory, ask_user_question) default on while the
capability is enabled; explicit false opts out. SDK-native intent
schemas (@librechat/agents coding suite) are recognized and left alone.

- packages/api/src/agents/intent.ts: structural sibling of
  background.ts — first-key non-mutating injection with registry
  parity (covers deferred/tool_search discovery), eligibility and
  PTC-only skips, arg read/strip helpers, self-spawn strip for defs and
  registry, ephemeral/model-spec synthesis with a tool_options merge so
  the background and intent toggles compose.
- handlers.ts: intent runs BEFORE background injection so the label
  stays the first streamed key when a tool carries both (pinned by
  test); the arg is stripped before invocation unless the tool's own
  schema declares it, on both the foreground and background-dispatch
  paths; PTC target schemas are sanitized like background's.
- Capability plumbing through all four routes (endpoint initialize,
  openai + responses controllers, the exported OpenAI-compatible
  service) plus handoff discovery and added-convo agents, and the
  intentToolNames execution channel via configurable.
- describe_intent on toolOptionsSchema (all three written-out Zod
  annotations), ToolOptions, TEphemeralAgent, TModelSpec (+ zod), and
  data-schemas doc comments (tool_options is Mixed — no migration).
- intent.spec.ts: 28 tests cloned from background.spec.ts structure,
  including the intent+background key-order composition.

* 🧯 fix: Codex Review — Opt-Out Strips SDK-Native Intent, Skip mcp_all Placeholders

- An explicit describe_intent: false now REMOVES an SDK-native intent
  property from the definition and registry entry, so the per-tool
  opt-out actually disables the arg's token cost for tools like
  web_search that carry the schema natively (SDK bodies tolerate its
  absence). Previously the early return left the property in place.
- synthesizeIntentToolOptions skips lazily-expanded mcp_all
  placeholders instead of recording options under names that
  applyIntentLabels' exact-name matching can never match, and documents
  the limitation (parity with synthesizeBackgroundToolOptions).

The P1 about the client not rendering the label is the documented
slicing: the UI streaming-label PR follows once #14391's ToolCallGroup
changes merge — args already reach the client, so that slice is purely
rendering.

* 🧯 fix: Codex Re-Review — Label Marker Guard, Capability Kill Switch, Late Defs, Service Threading

- removeIntentParam is now marker-guarded (the label contract's opening
  instruction discriminates it), so an MCP/action tool's own business
  `intent` parameter is never stripped by an opt-out or the disabled
  path — previously an explicit false could remove a real, possibly
  required argument.
- New sanitizeIntentLabels pass runs AFTER every registration step
  (the skill catalog appends its SDK definition post-injection): with
  tool_intents disabled it strips SDK-native intent labels from all
  definitions and registry entries, making the capability a real kill
  switch over their token cost; with it enabled it enforces explicit
  per-tool opt-outs on late-registered definitions.
- ask_user_question removed from the native default-on set: its graph
  tool is rebuilt in run.ts from its own Zod schema (also the HITL
  card's wire shape), so definition-level injection never reached the
  model. Its intent support lands with the HITL slice, which threads
  the label into the interrupt payload deliberately.
- The exported OpenAI-compatible service now threads intentToolNames
  into the run configurable, so the executor's PTC path can strip
  host-injected intent schemas on that route like the in-repo
  controllers do.

* 🧯 fix: Codex Round 2 — Post-Skill Injection, PTC Native Strip, Service Boundary, Honest Docs

- Intent injection now runs LAST in initializeAgent, after the skill
  catalog — which both appends its own definition and REPLACES upgraded
  ones (skill-aware read_file), clobbering an earlier injection while
  intentToolNames still listed the tool. Injection PREPENDS while
  background APPENDS, so intent stays the first schema property under
  the new ordering (pinned by a reverse-order composition test).
- The PTC target-schema strip is now marker-guarded strip-ALL: SDK-
  native intent labels (which are deliberately never in intentToolNames)
  are removed from sandbox-advertised schemas alongside host-injected
  ones; business intent params survive.
- toolIntentsAvailable on the exported service documents the loader
  boundary: a custom LoadToolsFn returning only structured instances
  bypasses definition/registry injection and sanitize by construction.
- librechat.example.yaml describes tool_intents as backend groundwork
  with UI rendering in an upcoming release rather than promising a live
  label today.

* 📦 chore: bump `@librechat/agents` to v3.3.6

Brings in the SDK half of tool intent labels (danny-avila/agents#347,
#349): intent-first schemas on the coding suite across all three
engines, plus web_search / subagent / skill / tool_search, and the
outcome / outcome_patch result channel.

Activates three host paths that were inert while no SDK tool shipped an
`intent` property — verified against the real 3.3.6 schemas:
- capability OFF now strips SDK-native labels (a real admin kill switch)
- explicit `describe_intent: false` removes them per tool
- host injection stays idempotent against an SDK schema, keeping
  `intent` first and never double-injecting

* 🔬 test: Real-Provider Verification for Tool Intent Labels

Adds the live check the unit tests structurally cannot perform: whether a
real model actually authors the injected arg, places it FIRST, and gives
sibling calls to one tool distinct labels. Reuses the existing
real-provider harness (in-memory Mongo, seeded user, credential
neutralizer) and the existing stdio MCP fixture as a genuine tool, so no
external service is involved.

- e2e/config/librechat.real.yaml: adds the e2e-memory MCP server and the
  tool_intents capability, giving the real model something to call. The
  sibling spec asserts only relative token growth, so the extra schemas
  do not perturb it.
- e2e/playwright.config.real.ts: optional Langfuse passthrough. The
  LANGFUSE_* keys match the credential-neutralizer pattern and were being
  blanked before the server booted; they are preserved explicitly, read
  from the invoking environment only, and never written to the generated
  config.
- e2e/specs/real/tool-intents.spec.ts: two facts stored in one turn, both
  through the same tool, asserting intent is the first key of each call
  and that the two labels differ. Args are read from persistence rather
  than the DOM deliberately — no UI renders the label yet, and
  persistence is what a reloaded conversation and the trace both read.

First run against claude-haiku-4-5 produced 'Recording the location of
the OAuth callback router' and 'Recording the location of the MCP
connection pool configuration' — distinct, first-position, no tool name.

Also updates tool-intent-spec.md: records the 3.3.7 removal of the tense
verb map with the evidence that motivated it, the trimmed description and
the marker's role as an API, and a new mandatory requirement that
client-side label rendering be gated on a server-sent signal rather than
the presence of an intent key (a tool's own business 'intent' parameter
would otherwise render as a status label).

* 📦 chore: bump `@librechat/agents` to v3.3.7 and dedupe the intent contract

Picks up danny-avila/agents#353: the tense verb map is gone (a bare
intent now displays unchanged, with completion carried by UI state), the
model-facing description is trimmed 502 → 289 chars, and both the marker
and the description are exported.

Stops redeclaring the SDK contract here:
- INTENT_LABEL_MARKER is imported instead of duplicated as a string
  literal. Every removal path in this module keys on it, and a local copy
  that drifted from the SDK's would make them all stop recognizing
  SDK-native labels — failing OPEN, with labels left in schemas and
  per-tool opt-outs silently inert.
- INTENT_DESCRIPTION is imported too, so host-injected tools and
  SDK-native tools present the model with one identical instruction.
  Keeping the old local copy would also have meant host-injected tools
  still paying ~126 tokens per schema while SDK tools paid ~72.

Verified live against real Anthropic after the trim: two sibling calls to
one MCP tool produced 'Storing the OAuth callback router file location'
and 'Storing the MCP connection pool configuration file location' —
first-position and distinct, so the shorter description holds compliance.

🏷️ feat: Activity Groups With Fast-Model Headers (#14391)
*  feat: Activity Groups with Fast-Model Labels

Groups each contiguous block of reasoning + tool calls into a collapsible
unit headed by a fast-model label (claude.ai-style hierarchy), off the
critical path: a PostToolBatch hook claims a live content slot at the
batch boundary (steering index-offset pattern), renders a deterministic
counts phrase instantly, and swaps in the generated label ~1s later while
the next model call streams. Labels are UI-only — stripped before the SDK
formatter and skipped in the legacy formatter — and reach live clients
via a dedicated on_activity_label SSE event (live/replay/pending paths).

Grouping preserves legacy rendering byte-for-byte when no label part is
present. Generation bridges to Run.generateActivityLabel() when the SDK
ships it (session-grouped Langfuse tracing); falls back to a direct call
today. Env-gated: ACTIVITY_LABELS_POC=true, ACTIVITY_LABEL_MODEL.

* 🧷 fix: Address Codex and Copilot Review Findings for Activity Labels

- Settle in-flight label fills (bounded 3s) before finalization on both
  the main and resume paths, so a label resolving during the final batch
  still reaches the durable log and saved message.
- Overlay on_activity_label chunks in RedisJobStore content
  reconstruction (splice path last-wins per index; replay path
  chronological overwrite), matching steer handling.
- Wire activity labels into the HITL resume createRun so post-resume
  batches keep claiming slots.
- Guard against out-of-order publishes: fill() awaits the claim emit
  before emitting the resolved label, and the client applier ignores a
  stale pending placeholder once a resolved label is present.
- Stamp the batch's groupId onto label parts so parallel-column runs
  place them inside their group instead of filtering them out.
- Localize the counts fallback phrase (10 keys, singular/plural) through
  useLocalize across chat rendering and exports.
- Type the hook with Providers/ClientOptions instead of stringly types;
  drop the unknown cast in the spec; add a dedicated rAF retry ref for
  label events with effect cleanup.

* 🛡️ fix: Address Independent Review — Abort, Usage, Lane Context, Redis Test

- Propagate the run abort signal into label generation (both wiring call
  sites; runtime combines host + dispatch signals with the timeout) so a
  user abort cancels in-flight label calls instead of paying to timeout.
- Record label-call usage like titles: the SDK bridge aggregates via
  chainOptions callbacks, the fallback path via a per-generation callback
  factory; both feed recordCollectedUsage under context 'activity-label'.
- Scope block-context capture: reasoning collection stops at the previous
  block's label part and filters by executingAgentId, so consecutive or
  parallel batches can no longer bleed another block's thinking into the
  payload; intent text still scans past labels (persists across batches).
- Forward the effective charLimit to the SDK call so host and SDK prompts
  agree (SDK default aligned to 600 in agents#327).
- Add a Redis integration test proving last-write-wins reconstruction of
  on_activity_label chunks per claimed index.
- Rebased onto main: only the two activity commits replay (the nine
  steering commits belonged to the old base branch), zero conflicts,
  steering suites green.

* 📐 refactor: Move Activity-Label Wiring to TypeScript, Address Codex Round 2

- [P1] Slot claiming, lane stamping, emit ordering, context capture, and
  settle tracking now live in packages/api (createActivityLabelWiring +
  captureActivityBlockContext); client.js is a thin closure wrapper.
- Register the activity-label hook BEFORE the steer drain so a steer
  draining at the same batch boundary cannot flush the tool block and
  orphan the label outside its group.
- Resolve request-based header placeholders in resolveActivityLabelLLM
  (titleConvo parity) so metadata-keyed proxies work on label calls.
- Trim labels centrally before filling so whitespace-only output from
  either generation path keeps the deterministic counts fallback.

* 🧭 fix: Codex Round 3 — Capture Order, Shared Strip, Token Estimator, Hide Filter

- Capture block context BEFORE pushing the label part: the scan stops at
  ACTIVITY_LABEL parts, so post-push capture hit the just-inserted label
  and silently collected no reasoning excerpts (regression test added).
- Share stripActivityLabelParts from packages/api and apply it in the
  Responses and OpenAI-compatible controllers, closing the replay leak
  for entry points still running SDKs without the formatter skip.
- Exclude activity_label parts from the fallback response-token estimator
  (UI-only parts must not inflate no-usage provider billing).
- Keep label parts explicitly under hide_sequential_outputs — they
  summarize exactly the outputs that mode hides.

* 🔁 fix: Codex Round 4 — Resume Gap, Delta Flush, Agent-Scoped Intent, Token Counter

- Synthesize on_activity_label events for labels claimed or filled in the
  snapshot→subscribe window (the publish is fire-and-forget, so Redis-mode
  reconnects missed them). Feature-gated so the default path adds no
  content re-read; the client applier already ignores duplicates.
- Flush queued deltas before applying a label part, matching the pending-
  action and steer appliers — without it the handler read a stale message
  cache and syncStepMessage pushed a pre-delta copy back.
- Skip another agent's tail text when resolving intent, so parallel runs
  cannot seed a label prompt with a sibling agent's narration.
- Exclude activity_label parts from countFormattedMessageTokens (the
  agent-path counter), not just the legacy BaseClient one.

* 🏗️ refactor: Codex Round 5 — Extract Label Host Logic, Report Usage, Icon Strip

- Move provider/model resolution, usage-metadata mapping, and the settle
  loop into packages/api (activityLabels/host.ts); client.js keeps only
  thin delegations, per the repo's TypeScript-implementation convention.
- Fold label usage into the response rollup with an 'activity-label' tag
  (subagent precedent) so metadata.usage and the live cost gauge account
  for it; tagged, so it stays out of PRIMARY usage/context pairing.
- Narrow tool metadata once in ToolCallGroup so THINK parts in a labeled
  block no longer render phantom generic icons in the stacked strip.
- Import the activity-label helpers by deep path in GenerationJobManager:
  the package barrel now reaches provider-config/cache modules that
  import back into the stream layer, and the cycle broke suite loading.

Declined: resetting steerOffsetState before HITL resume — resume builds a
FRESH AgentClient via initializeClient (initialize.js:978), so the offset
is already zero; the seed wrapper alone accounts for pre-pause parts.

* 🚦 fix: Codex Round 6 — Stream Label Usage, Close Late Fills

- Emit an on_token_usage chunk for label calls (sink push alone left the
  live session gauge blind); retained in pendingSubagentEmits so job
  cleanup cannot race the persist, tagged 'activity-label' as before.
- Close the label scope when settle times out: the wiring gates fill() on
  isClosed and the client fires a label-scoped AbortController, so a
  straggling generation can neither mutate a saved response nor emit into
  a job whose runtime is gone. The controller also chains to the run
  signal, so a user abort still cancels label work.

* 🩹 fix: Repair CI — Package Typecheck and Module Mocks

Local runs covered the client tsconfig and jest, but never packages/api's
own tsconfig, so nine type errors in the extracted host module shipped.

- Type host.ts against the real contracts: ServerRequest, EndpointDbMethods,
  AppConfig from @librechat/data-schemas, IUser for createSafeUser, and a
  MaybeAzureConfig view for the azure instance-name probe and configuration.
- Widen resolveConfigHeaders' llmConfig to Partial<RunLLMConfig>: it only
  reads the three provider header carriers, so auxiliary generations with a
  bare ClientOptions can resolve headers without assembling a run config.
  Type-only widening; every existing caller still satisfies it.
- Add stripActivityLabelParts to the @librechat/api mock in the OpenAI and
  Responses controller specs — those mocks enumerate exports, so a new
  import read as undefined and threw before the assertions ran.
- Use the real activity-label helpers in the ToolCallGroup spec's ~/utils
  mock; stubbing them out would hide the header logic under test.

* ⚙️ feat: Configure Activity Labels via librechat.yaml, Drop Env Vars

Replaces the ACTIVITY_LABELS_POC / ACTIVITY_LABEL_MODEL env gate with
per-endpoint settings, following the title options convention rather than
a top-level block — each endpoint picks its own cheap label model.

- Add activity, activityModel, activityEndpoint, activityPrompt,
  activityMaxPerRun, and activityCharLimit to the endpoint schema, and to
  the endpoints.all pick list (enumerated, so 'all:' would otherwise drop
  them silently).
- resolveActivityConfig reads them with title-style precedence:
  endpoints.all > named endpoint > custom endpoint config.
- Model precedence is now activityModel > titleModel > the agent's model.
  activityEndpoint runs labels on another endpoint's credentials, with
  titleConvo's fallback-on-unknown-name behavior.
- Thread activityPrompt/MaxPerRun/CharLimit through the wiring into the
  hook and the SDK bridge; they were hardcoded defaults.
- The resume gap-repair gate keyed on the env var; it now keys on the
  snapshot actually containing label parts, so deployments without the
  feature still perform no extra content read.
- Document the fields in librechat.example.yaml; add host.spec.ts
  covering precedence, custom-endpoint fallback, and opt-out.

* 📝 refactor: Rename Enable Flag to activityLabel, Document Schema Inheritance

- Rename the boolean from `activity` to `activityLabel`, matching the
  titleConvo/titleModel shape: a verb-object toggle whose prefix matches
  its modifiers (activityModel, activityPrompt, ...). `activity: true`
  alone read ambiguously — it could mean tracking or logging activity.
- Document the two endpoint-schema inheritance paths, which behave
  oppositely and are ~900 lines apart:
  * `endpoints.all` omits from baseEndpointSchema, so new options are
    inherited automatically — nothing to maintain.
  * `azureEndpointSchema` enumerates via .pick(), so a new option is
    silently unavailable on Azure endpoints until listed there.
  The activity block now carries a pointer to the Azure caveat.

* 🔍 fix: Address Codex Findings on the Config Rework

- Pass the matched custom-endpoint config into the label gate. Custom
  endpoints live in the `endpoints.custom` ARRAY, so without it every
  custom endpoint resolved as disabled — including the example this PR
  added to librechat.example.yaml.
- Give label usage a unique `runId:seq`. Label usage is billed but never
  appended to `collectedUsage`, so its length was static: every label
  event reused the last primary usage's pair and collided with itself,
  and the client dedupes on exactly that.
- Attach `cost` to label usage when `interface.contextCost` is on;
  aggregateEmittedUsage treats coverage as all-or-nothing, so an event
  without it suppressed the whole response's cost.
- Honor `activityPrompt` on the direct fallback path, not just the SDK
  bridge — it previously always used the built-in instruction.
- Seed the per-response label cap from labels already on the response so
  a HITL resume cannot mint a fresh quota after every approval.
- Reconcile label gaps on resume via a durable per-job `activityLabels`
  flag instead of probing the snapshot: the FIRST label of a run can be
  claimed inside the snapshot->subscribe window, which the old signal
  missed. The flag is read from a job record already fetched there, so
  runs without the feature still add no content read.
- Auto-collapse labeled single-tool groups; one-call batches are common
  in agent runs and rendering them expanded defeats the grouping.

* 🎯 fix: Correct Label Usage Seq, Cross-Endpoint Pricing, Close Scopes

- Give label usage a NEGATIVE seq namespace. The previous fix was wrong:
  seq is a position in `collectedUsage` (push, then emit with the new
  length), so sink-length + array-length still lands on a real position —
  primary emits 1, the label computes 2, the next primary also emits 2.
  Labels have no position at all (billed separately, never appended), so
  they now occupy a namespace positional sequences cannot reach. The
  client key is a string used for Set membership, so the sign is inert.
- Price cross-endpoint labels with the LABEL endpoint's token config:
  resolveActivityLabelModel now returns the resolved endpointTokenConfig,
  and both the streamed cost and recordCollectedUsage use it instead of
  the agent endpoint's rates.
- Make close state per-wiring rather than per-client. A HITL resume
  rebuilds the wiring, and resetting a shared flag re-opened closures from
  the pre-pause segment whose provider call ignored the abort; settle now
  closes every retained scope, past generations included.

* 🎯 fix: Make the Activity Header Say Something the Cards Cannot

The header read "ran 1 command" next to a card already labeled "Code" —
it restated the UI beneath it instead of adding to it. Two causes, both
about content rather than timing:

- A deterministic tool-type tally was the primary display and also fed
  the prompt, so the best case was a tally and the worst case was a
  tally dressed as prose. Removed from the metadata, the prompt, the
  part type, and the client.
- The instruction only ever reached the fallback path. The wiring
  passed a prompt only when  was configured, so the
  preferred SDK path silently used the published package default. The
  wiring now always supplies one and the hook forwards it on both
  paths.

The register is rewritten around what the cards cannot show:
past-tense git-commit-subject, leading with the distinctive noun,
outcome over attempt, tool names and counts and arguments explicitly
forbidden. The batch entries are labeled as reference material so the
model stops transcribing them.

Claiming a slot no longer emits. The slot still reserves its index so
streamed parts never collide, but with nothing to say there is nothing
to render: until a description exists the block looks exactly as it
does without the feature.

* 🧹 fix: Drop the Localize Hook Left Unused by the Counts Removal

*  test: Add Activity-Label e2e Coverage with a Recording Label Server

Activity labels are the one model call a mock run does not already fake:
fake-model.js swaps the GRAPH model via overrideTestModel, while
run.generateActivityLabel() calls the endpoint resolved client options
over HTTP. The custom endpoints already point baseURL at 127.0.0.1:8889,
so serving that port exercises the real path with no production seam.

fake-label-server.js answers it in both JSON and SSE form, records each
prompt, and can inject blank/error responses. Recording is what lets the
spec assert the CONTRACT rather than the rendering: that this repo
register and the tool OUTPUTS actually reach the model. That is the bug
class that produced unusable labels before, and rendered text looks
identical whether or not the instruction arrived.

Labels get a dedicated endpoint (Mock Provider E). A labeled block
auto-collapses even at one tool call, which hides the tool cards other
specs assert on -- enabling this on a shared endpoint broke
steering.spec.ts. Provider D is the unlabeled control.

Request-count assertions are scoped to a per-test token: a 5xx label
response is retried by the provider client, and a retry can land after
the next test has reset the server.

* 🩹 fix: Address Review Findings on Activity-Label Indexing and Pricing

Replay index (P1). Reserving the slot only in server memory left no event
for it, so a cross-instance replay rebuilt content as [tool, hole, later],
compacted the hole away, and the fill for the reserved index landed on the
following part and overwrote it. The claim now publishes the empty,
pending part so the index is real for every consumer, and fill publishes
even when generation returned nothing so the client cannot stay pending.

It stays invisible: an empty label still DELIMITS its batch in
groupSequentialToolCalls but is not attached as the header, so grouping
does not re-shuffle when the text lands and the block renders exactly as
it does with the feature off.

Edited-response index (P1). Edit-and-resubmit replays the kept prefix and
the server indexes only new content, so run steps offset by that prefix.
Labels are claimed in the same space and now take the identical shift;
without it a label could land inside the prefix and overwrite it.

Redis flag. deserializeJob never read activityLabels back, so every Redis
reload left it undefined and resume skipped label gap reconciliation.

Executing agent. RunActivityLabelOptions.agentId selects the executing
agent tracing metadata AND its tool-output redaction policy; omitting it
let a handoff be redacted under the default agent configuration.

Label pricing. An undefined endpointTokenConfig is meaningful for a
built-in label endpoint (priced from the shared table), so the nullish
fallback billed those labels at a custom primary rates. Inherit only when
the label runs on the agent own endpoint.

HITL usage sequence. runId is the response message id and the counter was
instance-local, so a resume restarted at -1 and the client runId:seq
deduper discarded the post-approval label usage. Seeded past the labels
already on the response.

Also distinguishes "cannot serve" (undefined) from "no label" (null) in
the SDK bridge, so a missing run falls back to the direct call instead of
filling the slot empty. Version gating already happens at wiring time via
the sdkCapable prototype probe.

* 🩹 fix: Keep Unfilled Activity Labels Invisible and Unmask Endpoint Settings

Follow-up review round. Publishing the reservation on every batch made two
latent rendering paths reachable on every run, and both are fixed here.

Empty labels no longer change grouping. The previous pass still formed a
tool-group for a textless label, which wrapped even a single tool call and
pulled THINK parts inside it — and since a reservation is published the
moment each batch ends, that applied during every generation and
permanently after a blank or failed fill. An empty label now flushes the
legacy way instead: it still delimits its batch, but the block re-splits
exactly as it renders with the feature off.

Parallel lanes no longer show a blank line. Lanes render raw parts, so an
unfilled label had nothing to draw; empty ones are dropped. Making labels
act as collapsible headers inside lanes is still a separate gap.

Edited responses no longer offset on resume. The sync replaces
initialResponse.content with the server's aggregatedContent, which already
contains the kept prefix AND everything generated since — so its length is
not the prefix length, and indices reconciled from that snapshot are
already absolute. Offsetting again pushed the label past its slot onto a
later part. The shift now applies only to a fresh edited submission.

Activity settings resolve field by field. Selecting one config object
whole meant any endpoints.all block — even one carrying nothing but
headers — shadowed the named or custom endpoint and silently disabled
activity labels everywhere. Global still wins per field.

Adds groupToolCalls coverage for the invisible-while-empty contract, which
is the part most likely to regress: it is normal state on every run, not
an edge case.

* 🔒 fix: Scope Detached Label Writes to Their Generation Epoch

Epoch scoping (P1). Label generation is detached and can outlive the
generation that started it. emitChunk only proves that SOME runtime is
current, not that the caller belongs to it, so an aborted generation's
fill(null) -- and its usage event -- could be attributed to whichever
generation replaced it, landing an index from the abandoned response on
top of the new one. Because an empty label renders nothing, that
overwrote content silently. emitChunk now takes an optional jobCreatedAt
and drops the event when the runtime epoch differs, mirroring the
existing setGraph/setContentParts convention, and both label emitters
pass it.

An abort now CLOSES the label scope instead of only cancelling the call:
the rejected generation still runs its catch and calls fill(null), which
would otherwise emit into a stream the next generation may already own.

Edited-response indexing (P1). The previous pass skipped the prefix
offset on resume, which was the wrong half of the problem: a sync
replaces initialResponse.content with the server's aggregatedContent,
which is completion-local, so after a reconnect its length is not the
kept-prefix length and the offset is wrong -- but it is wrong for run
steps in exactly the same way. Tool cards and the label that heads them
must share one index space; a label shifting differently from its tools
lands on another part. The label path now uses the identical expression
as useStepHandler, with no resume special-case. Correcting the
post-resume prefix length belongs in calculateContentIndex, where it
fixes both at once.

titleModel masking. The activity settings were made per-field last pass,
but the titleModel fallback a few lines below still selected an entire
config object, so a partial endpoints.all (for example one carrying only
headers) hid a named endpoint's titleModel and quietly fell the label
back to the main agent model. Both now read through one shared per-field
helper.

Resume reconciliation no longer depends solely on markActivityLabels,
which is best-effort yet had come to gate correctness: a lost flag write
silently dropped a label. The snapshot is consulted as a fallback.

The exported host type for generateLabel now admits undefined, which is
the documented "cannot serve, fall back to the direct call" signal the
hook keys on -- distinct from null, meaning it ran and produced nothing.

* 🧷 fix: Keep Group Identity Stable and Memoize Label Endpoint Resolution

Group remount. Tool-group identity was keyed on the first part in the
block. An activity label absorbs the block's leading THINK part the moment
its text lands, so the key flipped from tool:<id> to fallback:<scope>:<idx>
mid-run, remounting the group and discarding whatever the user had
expanded. The key now scans for the first tool call, which does not move
when the block re-forms.

Label endpoint resolution is memoized per response. It reads provider
config and can hit the database for user keys, yet nothing it depends on
changes between batches of one run — and it ran twice per batch, once for
generation and once for usage accounting. The promise is cached rather
than the value so concurrent batches share a single in-flight resolution,
and a rejection is evicted so one transient credential failure cannot
disable labels for the rest of the response.

* 🎯 fix: Offset Edited Resubmissions by a Prefix Length That Survives Resume

The server indexes only NEW content for an edited resubmission, so the
client offsets incoming indices by the prefix it retained. That prefix was
read as initialResponse.content.length, which is correct only until a
resume: the sync replaces that array with the server's completion-local
snapshot, whose length is unrelated to the prefix. After a reconnect every
offset was therefore wrong -- run steps and activity labels alike -- and
could write over content the edit kept. For a label the symptom is worse
than a bad position: the fill misses its own reservation, so the pending
placeholder is never resolved.

The prefix length is now captured when the submission is built, while
initialResponse.content still IS the retained prefix, and carried on the
submission as editPrefixLength. calculateContentIndex takes that length
instead of deriving it from an array that a resume may have replaced, so
run steps and labels share one index space by construction rather than by
both happening to read the same field.

Note the prefix is the FULL original content with the edited part
substituted in place (useChatFunctions clones latestMessage.content and
mutates one entry) -- it is not a slice, so the length cannot be inferred
from editedContent.index.

Group identity no longer changes when a label fills. Tool-group keys were
derived from the first part in the block; an activity label absorbs the
leading THINK part when its text lands, flipping the key mid-run and
remounting the group, which discarded the user's expansion state. The key
now scans for the first tool call, which does not move.

Label endpoint resolution is memoized per response. It reads provider
config and can hit the database for user keys, yet ran twice per batch --
once to generate, once for usage accounting -- while nothing it depends on
changes within a run. The promise is cached so concurrent batches share one
in-flight resolution, and rejections are evicted so a transient credential
failure cannot disable labels for the rest of the response.

The resume gap passes for steers and activity labels now share a single
lazy content read instead of each issuing its own. The label pass stays
gated on the run flag with a snapshot fallback: reconciling
unconditionally would also close the residual first-label window, but it
would bill a read to every resume of every run, including deployments with
the feature off -- which the steer pass deliberately avoids. That residual
requires a lost flag write, which shares fate with the content writes the
labels live in.

* 💵 fix: Bill Cross-Endpoint Labels at Their Own Rates

recordCollectedUsage never accepted an endpointTokenConfig, so the value
the activity-label caller passed was dropped and the balance transaction
was written at the primary agent's rates. Only the UI cost honored the
label endpoint, so a custom primary pointing activityEndpoint at another
endpoint showed one price and charged another. The parameter is now
accepted, and an explicit config wins outright over per-agent resolution:
that map is keyed by AGENT, so it cannot describe usage that ran on a
different endpoint.

Group identity is stable for id-less tool calls too. The previous pass
anchored the key to the first tool call ID; where a supported tool call
carries no id the fallback still used the block's first part index, which
shifts when a filled label absorbs the leading THINK part. The fallback now
anchors to the first TOOL entry's index, so only a block containing no
tool call at all keys off parts[0].

markActivityLabels is retried rather than fire-and-forget. It gates resume
gap reconciliation and is a SEPARATE write from the durable label append,
so a single lost write silently drops a label the content itself recorded.
The earlier "shared fate with content writes" reasoning was wrong. One
retry at run setup costs nothing and removes the only realistic way the
gate goes stale, without billing a content read to every resume.

* 🧮 fix: Stop Offsetting Once SYNC Drops the Edited Prefix

The edit offset was applied unconditionally, but whether it is correct
depends on which branch SYNC took. SYNC either preserves the content
already loaded for the response -- which still contains the retained
prefix, so the offset is required -- or replaces it with the server's
aggregatedContent, which is completion-local and indexed from zero, after
which any offset writes past the end of a now shorter array.

That is why the two previous attempts each fixed half of it: skipping the
offset on resume was right for the replace branch, applying it
unconditionally was right for the preserve branch, and neither holds on its
own. The offset now tracks the actual state of the rendered content.

For an activity label the replace branch was worse than a bad position:
the fill landed past its own reservation, so the pending placeholder was
never resolved and the block kept its generic header for the rest of the
run.

Applied to run steps as well, not just labels. useStepHandler reads the
prefix from the same submission and had the same unconditional offset, so
after a mid-session resume of an edited response tool cards were misplaced
too. Normalizing at the dispatch boundary keeps both in ONE index space by
construction: a label that shifted differently from the tools it heads
would land on another part.

Note the reload path was already coherent -- useResumeOnLoad rebuilds the
submission without editedContent or editPrefixLength, giving no offset
against server-supplied content -- so only the mid-session SYNC path was
inconsistent.

* 🧾 fix: Keep Label Accounting Out of the Primary Usage Slot

Label usage no longer owns getStreamUsage(). recordCollectedUsage assigned
its result to this.usage unconditionally, so when the primary provider
reported no usage metadata but the label provider did, BaseClient took the
label's output tokens as the assistant response's authoritative count. The
later primary call returns early on an empty collectedUsage and never
replaced it, so the wrong value stood, the text-based fallback was skipped,
and the real generation went unbilled. Secondary usage is still billed but
no longer writes that slot.

Cross-endpoint pricing keys off an explicit discriminator rather than the
presence of a value. A built-in label endpoint prices from the shared
table, so an undefined endpointTokenConfig is its MEANINGFUL value --
reading that as "no override" fell back to the primary's custom rates and
restored the exact mismatch the previous pass set out to fix. The caller
already knows whether the label ran elsewhere and now says so.

markActivityLabels rejects on failure instead of swallowing it. The flag
gates resume gap reconciliation and the caller retries it, but the internal
catch resolved successfully and made that retry unreachable -- so the two
changes cancelled out and a transient write failure still left the flag
absent.

Late label accounting is suppressed with the same gate as the late fill. A
straggler that outlived the settle timeout still ran its finally block, so
it charged the balance and appended to usageEmitSink after the response had
passed its usage flush and metadata snapshot: a cost the user pays but is
never shown.

The cleared-prefix state is scoped to one generation. It was set on a
resume SYNC that replaced the response and then never reset, so a later
edited resubmission in the same mounted hook dispatched run steps and
labels with no offset against content that still held its retained prefix.
Reconnects pass isResume and keep the state; a new generation clears it.

* 🔑 fix: Key Prefix State to the Stream and Honor current_model for Labels

The cleared-prefix reset keyed on isResume, which skips exactly the case it
was added for: a submission whose POST succeeded server-side but lost its
response is retried, comes back resumed: true, and subscribes in resume
mode even though it is a NEW generation. A previous generation's cleared
state then survived into it, and incoming run steps and labels applied no
offset against content that still held its retained prefix. The state is
now keyed to the stream id, which changes with the generation and stays put
across reconnects of one.

activityModel now honors current_model. The options are documented as
title-shaped and the titleModel fallback already excludes the sentinel, but
the higher-precedence activity override passed the literal string through to
getOptions and the provider, so an endpoint following that convention failed
every label instead of using the agent model.

* 🎯 fix: Key Prefix State to the Generation and Resolve the Run Model

The cleared-prefix state was keyed to the stream id, which never changes
within a conversation: request.js sets streamId = conversationId, so once a
reconnect cleared the state every later edited resubmission in that
conversation dispatched run steps and labels with no offset and could
overwrite the prefix it retained. It is now keyed to the response message
id, the only per-generation identity available here -- minted per
submission and carried through a resume unchanged.

That is the third identity tried for this state. isResume missed the
deduplicated-retry path (a lost response returns resumed: true for a new
generation); the stream id is conversation-scoped. The response id is the
boundary that actually matches a generation.

current_model labels now resolve the model the run is really using.
initializeAgent merges the request's endpointOption override into
model_parameters and the run gives it precedence, so preferring the saved
agent.model could send labels to a different, potentially unavailable or
more expensive model than the conversation is on.

* 🆔 fix: Key Prefix State to the Submission and Keep the Origin Title Model

Editing an assistant response reuses that response's messageId as
editedMessageId, and useChatFunctions carries it onto
initialResponse.messageId -- so re-editing the same response produced two
generations with the same key and the cleared-prefix state survived between
them, leaving run steps and labels with no offset against content the edit
retained. Keyed now to clientRequestId, the per-submission uuid, which is
minted fresh per edit attempt and forwarded unchanged on retries.

That is the fourth key this state has had, and each earlier one failed at a
real boundary: isResume missed the deduplicated-retry path, the stream id is
the conversation id, and the response message id is reused across edits of
one response. clientRequestId is the identity that actually means "this
submission".

The titleModel fallback is read from the ORIGINATING endpoint again, matching
how titleConvo captures its config before switching credentials. Reading it
after an activityEndpoint switch meant an OpenAI endpoint configured with
titleModel claude-haiku and activityEndpoint anthropic fell through to the
OpenAI run model and sent that name to Anthropic, failing every label. The
destination endpoint supplies credentials, not the model choice.

* 🧷 fix: Close the Remaining Edit, Epoch, and Scope Gaps for Labels

SYNC clears the edit prefix on the new-row branch too. When a resumed
edited submission cannot match an existing assistant row, that branch
builds the response straight from the server's completion-local
aggregatedContent, so it holds no retained prefix -- but the reset lived
only in the matched branch, leaving later steps and labels adding an
offset to indices that were already absolute.

Label usage is keyed per GENERATION. Editing one assistant response reuses
its responseMessageId while each fresh generation restarts
activityLabelUsageSeq, so a second edit re-emitted the same runId:seq and
the client discarded the newer usage while its balance transaction was
still written. The key now carries jobCreatedAt, the run's own epoch:
stable across reconnects and HITL resumes, distinct between generations.

The scope is revalidated at commit time. Checking once before the await let
a scope that closed mid-flight still charge the balance after finalization,
while the matching fill saw the closed scope and dropped the label --
billed but never surfaced, the exact outcome the guard exists to prevent.

The titleModel fallback no longer reaches the destination endpoint. With
activityEndpoint set and no titleModel on the originating endpoint, it
picked up the destination's, so changing only the credential target
silently changed the model and its cost. Precedence is activityModel, then
the originating endpoint's titleModel, then the run model; the destination
supplies credentials only.

* ✂️ refactor: Confine the Edit-Prefix Offset to Activity Labels

useStepHandler is now byte-identical to dev again. The resume-aware prefix
offset was applied there too, which was more correct in principle -- the
post-resume prefix length is genuinely wrong for run steps as well -- but it
changed index math that EVERY run step flows through, for every user,
including everyone who never enables activityLabel.

That shared correction needed five revisions in two days (isResume, the
stream id, the response message id, clientRequestId, and the SYNC new-row
branch), each passing the full suite and each failing at a boundary only
review found. Carrying it inside an opt-in feature put every user behind
logic with that track record. It belongs in its own change, with tests that
construct the edit-plus-resume states none of the current suites reach.

The offset now applies only where the label handler places its part, so
this PR cannot alter rendering for anyone with the feature off. The known
consequence is recorded in the description: with activity labels ENABLED,
an edited response that reconnects mid-generation can place its label and
its tool cards in different index spaces. That is a bug for opt-in users
rather than a regression for everyone, and it disappears once the shared
fix lands.

submission.editPrefixLength stays: the label path still needs a prefix
length that survives a SYNC replacing initialResponse.content.

* 🧾 fix: Commit Labels Before Billing and Keep Blank Slots Invisible

Round-nine review (all P2, feature-scoped):

- Billing ordering (client.js:409, runtime.ts): usage accounting ran
  BEFORE the slot commit on both generation paths, so the settlement
  deadline could expire during the balance write — charged, then the
  fill dropped as out-of-scope: billed, never shown. `slot.fill` now
  resolves a commit flag, generators register their accounting via
  `deferUsage`, and the hook runs it only after a committed fill.
- Scope gates (client.js:757): the direct-fallback `collect` omitted
  `scopeOpen`; both paths now gate on the OWNING wiring's scope, so a
  pre-pause straggler cannot bill because the resumed generation's
  scope is still open.
- Blank-label grouping (groupToolCalls.ts:81): a blank slot forced a
  flush, splitting adjacent single-call batches into standalone cards
  where the feature-off path merges them. Blank labels now only mark
  the claim boundary — structurally invisible, while a later filled
  label still cannot claim an earlier batch.
- Stale fill indices (wiring.ts:301): the skill-card unshift and the
  hide-sequential filter reshape contentParts before the finalization
  settle, so an in-flight fill emitted its claim-time index against a
  shifted array. Both completion paths now settle label fills before
  any post-run content reshaping (the finally settle stays as the
  error-path net; the second call sees an empty pending list).
- Bounded serialization (runtime.ts:238): `JSON.stringify` fully
  materialized unbounded tool results to keep 200/600 chars per entry.
  A budget-bounded serializer stops at the limit (which also bounds
  cyclic values) and preserves the exact truncate-with-ellipsis output.

Tests: fill/bill ordering + suppression on dropped fills (runtime.spec),
blank-slot merging and claim boundaries (groupToolCalls.test), bounded
serialization equivalence and giant-output truncation (runtime.spec).

* 🧮 fix: Keep Deferred Label Billing Inside the Settle Window

Self-review follow-up to the billing reorder: deferring usage until
after the commit moved it PAST the fill's resolution, so a settle keyed
on fills alone could let finalization flush the usage sink and snapshot
metadata while the label's billing was still in flight — the usage row
would silently miss the message rollup even on the happy path.

The hook now reports its whole detached task (generate → fill →
deferred usage) via a `trackTask` option, wired to the same settle
tracker as the fills, so finalization waits for billing exactly as it
did when accounting preceded the fill. The task never rejects. Pinned
in runtime.spec: the tracked task resolves only after usage collection.

* 🧰 fix: Harden Label Resolution, Output Bounds, and Cache Billing

Round-ten review (all P2, feature-scoped); the sixth finding is the
documented edited+reconnect index-space limitation, answered on-thread
as deliberately out of scope for this PR.

- Rejected-LLM memoization (runtime.ts): the hook cached a rejected
  `resolveLLM()` promise permanently, failing every later batch and
  silently defeating the host resolver's own rejected-cache eviction.
  The memo now evicts on rejection so the next batch retries.
- `current_model` precedence (host.ts): an explicit
  `activityModel: current_model` resolved to `undefined` and then lost
  to a configured `titleModel`. The sentinel now resolves straight to
  the run model; the title fallback applies only when `activityModel`
  is absent.
- Output bounds (runtime.ts): label text was persisted verbatim; a
  model ignoring the 4–9-word instruction (or steered by injection in
  untrusted tool output) could emit thousands of tokens duplicated
  through SSE, the chunk log, persistence, and the UI.
  `normalizeLabelOutput` keeps the first non-empty line, collapses
  whitespace, and hard-caps at 200 chars on both generation paths.
- Cache-token billing (host.ts, client.js): the usage mapper dropped
  cache fields, vanishing Anthropic cache tokens from billing and
  charging OpenAI cache reads at the full input rate. The mapper now
  normalizes Anthropic/OpenAI/LangChain cache shapes into
  `input_token_details`, and the emit + cost path carries them with the
  label endpoint's `provider` (additive-provider adjustment).
- Usage-type union (runs.ts): `TTokenUsageEvent.usage_type` now
  includes the emitted `activity-label` literal; the lone consumer
  keys on `usage_type != null`, so this is type-level completion.

Tests: sentinel/title/explicit model precedence and all three cache
shapes (host.spec), transient-resolution retry and output normalization
with truncation (runtime.spec), the new usage literal (runs.spec).

* 🪗 fix: Let Settled Labels Collapse Void Tools and Keep the Tail Cursor

Round-eleven review (all P2, client-side). Two fixed; the other two
findings restate documented Known limitations (edited+reconnect run-step
index space; parallel-lane collapsible headers), answered on-thread.

- Void-tool auto-collapse (ToolCallGroup.tsx): `allCompleted` keyed
  solely on output truthiness, so a tool that legitimately returns an
  empty string kept its labeled group expanded forever. A settled,
  filled label is itself a completion proof — the PostToolBatch claim
  only happens after every output in the batch returned — so it now
  satisfies `allCompleted`; pending labels keep the group live.
- Trailing-reservation cursor (ContentParts.tsx): a blank label
  reservation at the content tail renders nothing but still counted as
  the last part, stripping the streaming cursor and last-item
  affordances from the last VISIBLE part until the next delta.
  `lastContentIdx` now walks back past empty label slots.

Tests: labeled void-tool group auto-collapses, pending-label group
stays expanded (ToolCallGroup.test).

* 💳 fix: Price Label Cache Correctly, Honor endpoints.agents, Cancel Every Retry

Round-twelve review: four fixed here; the remaining P1 (move the
client.js bridge into packages/api) is an architecture call answered
on-thread for the maintainer.

- Provider on billed entries (client.js, P1): round ten added cache
  details to label usage entries but not `provider`, and `splitUsage`
  treats an unknown provider as additive — re-adding cache_read and
  cache_creation on top of an input count that already contains them,
  double-charging Anthropic/OpenAI cached label calls while the
  streamed cost (which carried the provider) disagreed. Every mapped
  entry now carries the label endpoint's provider.
- endpoints.agents honored (host.ts, client.js): `initializeAgent`
  rewrites `agent.endpoint` to the backing provider, so activity
  settings under the PUBLIC `agents` endpoint — valid config, inherited
  by `agentsEndpointSchema` — were silently ignored. Field resolution
  is now `all` > public endpoint > backing provider/custom, applied to
  both the enable gate and the model/titleModel resolution.
- E2E_LABEL_PORT reaches the YAML (playwright.config.mock.ts): an
  overridden port moved the fake label server and its health check but
  not the generated config's hard-coded 8889 baseURLs, so readiness
  passed while every label request targeted the wrong port. The
  override is now substituted into the generated copy.
- Every retry frame cancelled (useResumableSSE.ts): concurrent label
  retry chains (reservation + fill per slot) overwrote one rAF handle,
  so cleanup cancelled only the newest chain; the rest ran up to 120
  frames past unmount and could apply a stale label to a replacement
  generation reusing the same response id. Outstanding frame ids now
  live in a Set that cleanup drains.

Tests: public-endpoint gate/precedence/all-above-public (host.spec).

* 🖱️ fix: Keep the Last-Part Cursor in Parallel Lanes Too

Round-thirteen review (single P2): `ParallelContentRenderer` computed
`lastContentIdx` from the unfiltered array, so a trailing blank label
reservation — filtered out of every lane — left NO rendered part
carrying the last-part cursor and running-subagent affordances until
the label filled.

The sequential renderer's walk-back is extracted into a shared
`lastVisibleContentIdx` helper (utils/activityLabels) used by both
`ContentParts` and `ParallelContentRenderer`, so the two index spaces
cannot drift again. Behavior pinned in activityLabels.spec: trailing
blank skipped, consecutive blanks skipped, filled label counts,
label-free content unchanged.

* 🧹 chore: Alias the Retry-Frame Set for the Effect Cleanup Lint Rule

* 📏 fix: Let activityCharLimit Reach Tool Inputs

Round-fifteen review: `activityCharLimit` is documented as the
per-entry truncation for tool input AND output, but `buildPrompt`
hard-coded inputs at 200 characters — so raising the setting could
never surface a distinguishing path, query, or operation that appears
past the first 200 characters of a long argument. Inputs now truncate
at the configured limit alongside outputs; the 200-char constant
remains only for the intent line (renamed INTENT_CHAR_LIMIT to match).
Config fidelity pinned in runtime.spec: a 400-char argument survives a
450 limit and truncates under a 50 limit.

The round's other finding is the fifth restatement of the documented
edited+reconnect index-space limitation, answered on-thread with the
prior four cross-references.

* 🤝 fix: No Labels for Pure Handoff Batches

Round-sixteen review: a PostToolBatch containing only `transfer_to_*`
calls claimed a label slot, but transfer parts are never groupable —
the client flushed the handoff card standalone and the label orphaned
into a stray line after it, restating what the card already says.

Two-sided fix:
- Hook (runtime.ts): a batch whose every entry is a transfer call
  claims nothing — no slot, no model call, no `maxPerRun` consumption.
  Mixed batches still label (the header describes the real work).
- Renderer (groupToolCalls.ts): an orphan label whose `tool_call_ids`
  are all transfer calls is dropped instead of rendered standalone,
  covering content persisted before the hook-side skip.

The round's two P1s are repeats answered on-thread: the packages/api
extraction (maintainer-decided follow-up, recorded in the description)
and the sixth restatement of the edited+reconnect index limitation.

Tests: transfer-only batch claims nothing, mixed batch still claims
(runtime.spec); transfer-only orphan label dropped, real-batch orphan
label still renders (groupToolCalls.test).

* 🎛️ fix: Sanitize Label Client Options and Bound the Batch Prompt

Round-seventeen review: two fixed; the other two findings repeat the
maintainer-decided packages/api extraction (follow-up) and the
edited+reconnect index limitation (seventh instance), answered
on-thread.

- Primary-option strip (host.ts): the label client copied the resolved
  `llmConfig` wholesale, so an endpoint whose defaults enable extended
  thinking or carry model-specific output caps forwarded them to the
  (often cheaper) label model — unsupported options failed every label,
  and supported thinking spent real tokens and the settlement window on
  a 4–9 word header. The copy now strips `omitTitleOptions` keys and
  the `modelKwargs` output caps exactly like the title path, restoring
  the Anthropic `clientOptions` carrier by reference so proxy
  `defaultHeaders` still reach label requests.
- Batch prompt budget (runtime.ts): per-entry truncation left the batch
  dimension unbounded — hundreds of parallel calls could build a prompt
  past the fast model's window. The entries section now has a total
  budget (8k chars, scaling with `activityCharLimit` so a raised limit
  still fits several entries); entries past it are skipped without
  paying their serialization cost, and the list notes how many were
  omitted. The first entry always renders in full.

Tests: option strip with header-carrier survival (host.spec); giant
batch bounded with omission marker, small batch untouched
(runtime.spec).

* 🛡️ fix: Keep SSRF Guards on Label Calls, Skip Mixed Handoff Batches

Round-eighteen review: four fixed; the fifth repeats the
maintainer-decided packages/api extraction (eighth instance), answered
on-thread.

- SSRF-safe carrier (host.ts, P1): the sanitize step restored the
  Anthropic `clientOptions` carrier only when `defaultHeaders` existed,
  but for user-provided base URLs `getLLMConfig` stores the guarded
  Undici dispatcher and `redirect: 'error'` there — dropping it
  reopened DNS-rebinding/redirect paths on label calls to
  user-controlled URLs. The carrier (client CONSTRUCTION options, not
  generation params) is now restored whenever present, same reference.
- Primary maxTokens (host.ts): top-level `maxTokens` is not in
  `omitTitleOptions` and survived the strip; the title path deletes it
  explicitly, and a cap sized for the primary model can be rejected by
  the substitute. Deleted on the copy.
- Bounded keys (runtime.ts): the object branch materialized every key
  via `Object.keys` and quoted oversized keys in full before the budget
  check. Enumeration is now lazy (`for..in` + own-property guard) and
  keys slice to the budget before quoting, like string values.
- Mixed handoff batches (runtime.ts, groupToolCalls.ts): the client
  flushes the block at the transfer card, so a mixed batch's label
  orphaned exactly like a pure one. The hook now skips ANY batch
  containing a transfer call, and the renderer drops orphan labels
  covering one (legacy content).

Tests: carrier survival without headers by same reference, maxTokens
strip (host.spec); mixed batch claims nothing (runtime.spec); mixed
orphan dropped, real-batch orphan kept (groupToolCalls.test).

* 🧢 fix: Cap Label Generation, Order the Flag Persist, Detach Settled Listeners

Round-nineteen review: three fixed; the fourth is the ninth instance of
the edited+reconnect index limitation, answered on-thread.

- Generation cap (host.ts): stripping the primary output caps left
  label calls with NO cap at all — `normalizeLabelOutput` bounds what
  persists, not what the provider generates and bills, so a model
  ignoring the 4–9-word instruction (or steered by injected tool
  output) could emit its provider-default output per batch. The
  sanitize step now installs a 256-token label cap (per provider
  family: `maxOutputTokens` for Google-style wrappers, `maxTokens`
  otherwise), after the filter so the omit set cannot remove it.
- Flag-persist ordering (client.js): the `markActivityLabels` write was
  fire-and-forget, so an immediate cross-replica reconnect could read
  the job between the write and the first claim, see neither flag nor
  snapshot label, and skip gap reconciliation. Label emission now
  awaits the (settled-on-failure) persist chain, making "a label event
  exists" imply "the flag is durable" — the race window is gone; only
  the documented double-write-failure residual remains.
- Listener detach (client.js): each HITL approval cycle's wiring adds a
  `once` abort listener to the shared job signal that only an actual
  abort removes; settled segments now detach theirs in
  `settleActivityLabels`, so long multi-approval runs cannot accumulate
  dead closures toward the listener-limit warning.

Tests: the primary cap is REPLACED by the 256-token label cap
(host.spec).

* 🎯 fix: Route the Label Cap Per Model Family

Round-twenty review: the 256-token label cap set maxTokens
unconditionally, but GPT-5+ rejects max_tokens (the OpenAI builder
routes its cap into modelKwargs.max_completion_tokens /
max_output_tokens) and o-series models reject it with no stable kwargs
alternative — every label on those models would have failed. The cap
now mirrors the builder: modelKwargs for GPT-5+ (responses-API aware),
no cap for o-series (title parity; the 200-char persistence bound
still applies), maxOutputTokens for Google, maxTokens otherwise.
Pinned in host.spec for both reasoning families.

The round's other finding is the tenth instance of the documented
edited+reconnect index limitation, answered on-thread.

* ⏱️ fix: Persist the Label Flag at Run Start, Not on the Emit Path

Round-twenty-one review: two fixed; the other three repeat the
maintainer-decided packages/api extraction, the edited+reconnect index
limitation, and the parallel-lane header limitation — all answered
on-thread with their standing decisions.

- Flag ordering, corrected (client.js): sequencing label emission
  behind the flag persist (previous round) delayed the claim-time
  reservation while the shared index offset had ALREADY shifted
  subsequent SDK chunks — reopening the cross-instance
  hole-compaction overwrite the reservation emit exists to prevent.
  The reservation emits immediately again; instead, run start
  (processStream and resume alike) awaits the settled-on-failure
  persist chain, so the flag is durable before any batch can claim a
  label. Same guarantee, zero latency on the emit path.
- Tail-label cursor (ContentParts.tsx): a filled label at the content
  tail is consumed into the group header rather than listed in
  `group.parts`, so the `isLast` check missed it and nothing held the
  streaming cursor until the next delta. The check now includes
  `labelPart.idx`.

* 🔌 fix: Detach Label Abort Listeners Even Without Claims

A segment with labels enabled can end without a single claim (text-only, or handoff batches, which skip labels); the early return in settleActivityLabels skipped the detach added for HITL listener accumulation. The detach now runs on both paths.

* ⚖️ fix: Make the Commit Flag the Sole Billing Authority

Round-twenty-three review: a committed fill racing a late scope close
(user abort or settle timeout during the durable emit) stayed visible
— the part is mutated and persisted before the close — yet the
deferred accounting's scope gates then skipped the charge: a completed
provider call escaping both the label charge and the primary abort
accounting.

The scope gates on the deferred-usage path are removed; the hook's
commit flag is now the single billing authority in BOTH directions. A
dropped fill never reaches the accounting callback (billed-never-shown
stays impossible), and a committed fill bills regardless of when its
scope closed (shown-never-billed now impossible too). The dead
`scopeOpen` payload threading is removed with it; the
`recordActivityLabelUsage` parameter survives, defaulting open, for
callers that own no commit signal.

The round's other finding is the twelfth instance of the documented
edited+reconnect index limitation, answered on-thread.

* 🧮 feat: Bill Labels by Estimate When Providers Omit Usage

Maintainer decision: follow the title convention rather than leaving
label calls unbilled when a provider returns no usage metadata.

The hook now passes a LAZY estimate thunk with the deferred accounting
on the success path — the EXACT prompt the direct path sent (or the
locally built equivalent for the SDK path: same entries, context,
instruction, truncation contract, and continuity headers) plus the
final normalized label. `recordActivityLabelUsage` invokes it only
when no collected entry carries a real token count, counts both texts
with the shared o200k_base tokenizer, and feeds the synthesized entry
through the SAME pipeline (provider-tagged, streamed event, cost,
balance transaction). Real provider usage always wins when present.
The failure path passes NO estimate: a throw before a response bills
only real collected metadata, never a full phantom prompt.

Tests: the estimate thunk carries the exact invoked prompt and final
label; the failure path defers with no estimate (runtime.spec).

* 💵 fix: Estimate From the Raw Completion, Not the Normalized Label

The fallback estimate counted the normalized label (first line, 200-char cap) while the provider generated and would bill the raw output up to the 256-token generation cap — under-recording verbose replies. The estimate thunk now carries the raw pre-normalization text; the persisted label is unchanged. Pinned with a multi-line reply test.

* 🧾 fix: Commit Label Text Only After the Durable Emit, Estimate the Real SDK Prompt

Round review on the billing work: two fixed; the third is the
fourteenth instance of the edited+reconnect index limitation, answered
on-thread.

- Copy-first fill (wiring.ts): the fill mutated the shared content part
  BEFORE its durable emit, so a failed emit left the label text on
  `contentParts` anyway — persistence could save and display a label no
  client ever received and billing (keyed on the commit flag) never
  charged. The new state is staged on a copy; the shared part mutates
  only after the emit succeeds, so content, delivery, and billing move
  together.
- Real SDK prompt for estimates (client.js): the estimate thunk carried
  this module's locally built prompt, but the SDK path frames entries
  differently — the estimated input count was for a prompt never sent.
  Chain-start callbacks (handleLLMStart/handleChatModelStart) now
  capture the prompt the SDK actually rendered, and the deferred
  accounting substitutes it into the estimate when capture succeeded,
  falling back to the local approximation otherwise.

🧪 test: Reasoning-Stream Render Perf Benchmark via react-scan (#14494)
* 🧪 test: Reasoning-Stream Render Perf Benchmark via react-scan

Adds a Playwright benchmark that streams one long, unsplit <think> block
(18k chars — 4x the legacy SplitStreamHandler blockThreshold) plus 6k chars
of markdown through the real mock-model agents pipeline, with react-scan
injected to tally per-component renders. It verifies the legacy content-part
splitting (removed in #10533) is not needed for rendering performance:

- The whole reasoning section lands in ONE think part (a single Thoughts
  toggle) — nothing re-splits it anywhere in the pipeline.
- rAF coalescing bounds the think box to ~1 render per 43 streamed chunks
  (122 renders / 5,290 chunks).
- MarkdownBlock renders stay O(blocks + flushes) (153 renders / 2,092 text
  chunks), not O(blocks x tokens).
- Long tasks during the 13.4s stream: one 96ms task; total render time 885ms.
- Typing after the long transcript leaves transcript components quiet
  (<=2 renders across 40 keystrokes).

Runs against the vite dev server (prod minification strips displayName
assignments, which react-scan needs for naming). react-scan itself is not a
repo dependency: install with `npm i --no-save react-scan` or point
REACT_SCAN_PATH at its auto.global.js bundle.

Also fixes the mock e2e stack for local runs: a developer .env with
CHECK_BALANCE=true leaked through neutralizeCredentialEnv (not
credential-shaped) and made every streaming mock spec fail with a
token_balance violation, since the fresh e2e user has no balance record.
vanillaOverrides now pins CHECK_BALANCE=false.

* 🩹 fix: Address Codex Review — Payload Integrity, Frame Bounds, Proxy Port

- Assert the full 18k-char reasoning payload survives the pipeline: expand
  the Thoughts toggle and compare rendered think text against the source
  (whitespace-normalized), instead of only counting toggles.
- Derive render bounds from elapsed frames (60fps + headroom) rather than
  chunk counts, so the coalescing assertion stays meaningful regardless of
  how many chunks stream before resetPerf; apply the same bound to
  MarkdownBlock.
- Tighten main-thread budgets: worst long task < 250ms and long-task total
  < 10% of stream wall time (baseline: one 51-96ms task per run).
- Pass BACKEND_PORT derived from the configured E2E base URL to the vite dev
  server so its /api proxy follows a non-default app-server port.

* 🧭 fix: Address Codex Round 2 — Typed Global, Drained Observer, Full-Payload Checks

- Declare window.__PERF__ via global Window augmentation; drop the
  as-unknown-as double casts from both perf helpers.
- Retain the longtask PerformanceObserver and drain takeRecords() before
  every snapshot/reset so stalls landing near the final render are counted.
- Start the wall clock at the same instant as the tally reset so frame
  bounds and long-task percentages divide by exactly the measured interval.
- Verify the complete markdown body: every generated section heading
  (exact-match), the exact list-item and table counts, and the generated
  code block — END_MARKER alone only proved the suffix rendered.
- Require positive ThinkingContent/MarkdownBlock render counts so a renamed
  component or dropped instrumentation cannot void the upper bounds.
- Cap cumulative render time at 25% of stream wall time to catch sustained
  sub-50ms work that never surfaces as a long task.

* 🧷 fix: Address Codex Round 3 — Page Clock, Completion Wait, Exact Payload Checks

- Measure the stream interval on the page's own clock: reset stamps the
  start, the snapshot evaluation reads the end, so bounds divide by exactly
  the tallied window including work between marker paint and snapshot.
- Wait for the Stop generating button to hide before snapshotting, so
  generation finalization (usage chunk, terminal events, save re-render) is
  inside the measured interval.
- Compare the rendered think text exactly (edges trimmed only) — internal
  paragraph breaks are user-visible under whitespace-pre-wrap and must
  survive verbatim.
- Verify the markdown prose, not just structure: per-section doubled-sentence
  paragraph and both list-item texts, exact table count with cell values, and
  both generated code lines.
- Derive the vite proxy port via getE2EServerAddress() so implicit ports in
  E2E_BASE_URL (default 80/443) agree between the app server and the proxy.
- Pin react-scan@0.5.7 in the README — thresholds are calibrated against its
  instrumentation semantics.

* 🪛 fix: Address Codex Round 4 — Pre-Send Reset, Count Every Code Block

- Reset the tally immediately BEFORE triggering the send: with a 1ms chunk
  delay, the earliest deltas can render between the response headers
  resolving and a post-send evaluation, which the old order erased from the
  measurement.
- Assert Math.floor(sectionCount / 3) occurrences of both generated code
  lines via code-element locators instead of .first(), so dropped later
  code blocks can no longer pass the payload check.

* 🎛️ fix: Address Codex Round 5 — First-Render Clock, Expanded Box, Typing Budget

- Stamp the wall clock at the FIRST render after each reset (inside
  onRender) so idle request-setup time between reset and stream start never
  pads the frame, long-task, or render-time denominators.
- Seed showThinking=true so the reasoning box streams EXPANDED — the heavier
  live-layout path — and drop the post-hoc expand click.
- Bound the typing phase itself: worst long task < 150ms and cumulative
  render time < 25% of the typed interval, so input lag without transcript
  re-renders still fails.
- Derive the vite dev server host from getE2EServerAddress() alongside the
  port, so a non-localhost E2E base URL keeps the app server, listen host,
  and /api proxy in agreement.

* 🧿 fix: Address Codex Round 6 — Stream-Anchored Clock, IPv6 Proxy, Rate-Free Bounds

- Anchor the stream clock to the first ThinkingContent render — the payload
  opens with reasoning, so that is the first assistant-content paint —
  keeping composer renders and idle request setup out of the denominators.
- Bracket IPv6 HOST values when building the vite /api proxy target in
  client/vite.config.ts; unbracketed ::1 produced an unparseable URL.
- Add an absolute cumulative long-task budget (<300ms) to the typing phase
  so repeated sub-threshold stalls cannot evade the worst-case check or
  dilute the ratio via inflated elapsed time.
- Add chunk-relative companion bounds (renders < chunks/4) for both
  ThinkingContent and MarkdownBlock, and hard-pin MOCK_LLM_CHUNK_DELAY_MS=1,
  so a slower stream can no longer loosen the coalescing assertions.

feat: Add Gemini 3.6 Flash and Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite Support (#14369)
*  feat: Add Gemini 3.6 Flash and Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite Support

Adds first-class support for Google's Gemini 3.6 Flash (`gemini-3.6-flash`)
and Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite (`gemini-3.5-flash-lite`) for both the Gemini API
(AI Studio) and Google Cloud/Vertex integrations.

- Context window (1M) in googleModels; API + cache pricing in tx.ts.
- Model dropdown (config.ts) and GOOGLE_MODELS examples for both integrations.
- Generalize the Gemini 3.5 Flash overrides into a flash-family handler that
  strips deprecated temperature/topP/topK and applies each model's default
  thinking level (3.6 Flash: medium, 3.5 Flash-Lite: minimal), with
  longest-prefix resolution so flash-lite does not collide with flash.

Ref: https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/latest-model#api-changes-and-parameter-updates

* 🩹 fix: Strip unsupported penalty params for Gemini Flash family

Gemini 3.6 Flash, 3.5 Flash-Lite, and 3.5 Flash reject presencePenalty/
frequencyPenalty with HTTP 400 ("Penalty is not enabled for this model",
verified live). These pass through llmConfig via knownGoogleParams, so add
them to the flash-family strip list alongside the deprecated sampling params.

* 🩹 fix: Strip Flash-blocked params on custom Google endpoint path

For custom OpenAI-compatible endpoints with defaultParamsEndpoint=google,
getOpenAIConfig strips Flash-blocked params via getGoogleConfig but then
transformToOpenAIConfig re-applies raw addParams, undoing the strip. Filter
addParams through stripGeminiFlashBlockedParams before the transform so the
deprecated sampling / rejected penalty params cannot reach the provider.

* 🔧 chore: Update sharp package to version 0.35.3 in package-lock.json, api/package.json, and packages/api/package.json

* 🔧 chore: Update dependencies in package-lock.json to latest versions for @google/genai (2.13.0), @hono/node-server (1.19.14), fast-uri (3.1.4), hono (4.12.31), and svgo (2.8.3)

* 🔧 chore: Update dependencies in package.json and package-lock.json for @librechat/agents (3.2.67), @opentelemetry/sdk-node (0.221.0), and add new dependencies for @opentelemetry/propagator-jaeger (2.10.0) and protobufjs (7.6.5). Update monaco-editor version in client package.json to 0.56.0.

* 🔧 chore: Upgrade turbo package to version 2.10.5 in package.json and package-lock.json, and update schema reference in turbo.json

* 🩹 fix: Resolve CI breakage from bundled dependency bumps

Not related to the Gemini models — both are fallout from the dep bumps on
this branch:
- monaco-editor 0.56 changed IEditorHoverOptions.enabled from boolean to
  'on' | 'off' | 'onKeyboardModifier'; update ArtifactCodeEditor to match
  (mirrors the sibling occurrencesHighlight/matchBrackets pattern).
- sharp 0.35.3 fails resize+encode on a degenerate 1x1 PNG (vipspng: libpng
  read error); the provider-file e2e fixture was 1x1, so use a 16x16 PNG.
  Normal images are unaffected (verified 64x64 resize/encode/jpeg all OK).

* 📝 docs: Correct e2e image-fixture comment (bad IDAT CRC, not a sharp bug)

Root cause was the old 1x1 fixture's corrupt IDAT CRC (verified: IHDR/IEND
CRC OK, IDAT CRC BAD), which sharp 0.35.3's stricter libpng correctly rejects.
Not a dimension/resize edge case and not a sharp bug; comment now reflects that.

💬 refactor: Anchor In-Flight Steers Above the Composer (#14308)
* 💬 refactor: Anchor In-Flight Steers Above the Composer

Mid-run steers were rendered in-thread at the tail of the streaming
assistant message, at a guessed injection point, then swapped to the
persisted STEER part at its real index once the server applied them.

In-flight steers now render as message bubbles anchored above the
composer, so the thread only ever shows what the server committed:

- InFlightSteers: sending/pending steers as left-aligned bubbles with
  image previews and a cancel affordance, anchored above the composer box
- PendingSteerChips: unchanged, still owns the failed/queued control rows
- SteerPart: drops the pending/onCancel props, now only ever the
  server-applied part
- useSteerCancel: the optimistic cancel + restore-on-error, lifted out of
  the deleted PendingSteers slot

The steer state machine is untouched: the 202 ACK reconciliation,
reconnect reseeding, and queue conversion all key off status, not render
location.

* 🎨 fix: Match In-Flight Steer Presentation to the Applied Part

Codex review on 6a5f36f7ef. All three findings were real, and all three
were the same underlying mistake: the anchored bubble hand-rolled
presentation instead of reusing the leaves the applied SteerPart uses,
so a steer visibly changed on apply.

- Images: the message `Image` sets an inline height from the file's
  dimensions and centers with object-contain, so clipping it into a 56px
  wrapper showed the blank top of a large element. Use ImagePreview, the
  composer's fixed-size thumbnail path (also gives click-to-enlarge).
- Non-image files: FileContainer always renders a button, so without an
  onClick the chip was dead. Wire FilePreviewDialog, as SteerPart does.
- Markdown: honor enableUserMsgMarkdown so text does not reflow the
  moment the server injects it.

Splits files in a single pass rather than two filters.

* 🎨 style: Outline the In-Flight Steer Bubble and Move the Bolt Inline

The filled bubble read as a settled message. An outline reads as
provisional, which is what an in-flight steer is, and separates it from
the composer surface behind it.

- Border + bubble keeps the composer's rounded-3xl radius so it reads as
  anchored to the input rather than floating over it. Border stays
  NEUTRAL: the failed-steer row already owns a colored (red) border, so
  a colored outline on the happy path would read as a warning.
- The Zap moves inside the bubble, left of the text, where it prefixes
  the words as a status label instead of competing with cancel for the
  right edge. items-start pins it to the first line when text wraps.
- Cancel drops plain `opacity-0` for `[@media(hover:hover)]:opacity-0`,
  matching SteerPart's info affordance: a hover-revealed control is
  unreachable on touch until a first tap (the #14272 pattern).

🧭 feat: Mid-Run Steering and Queued Messages for Agent Runs (#14220)
* 🧭 feat: Mid-Run Steering and Queued Messages for Agent Runs

Steering: submit a message while a run is generating; the server queues
it in the job store (cross-instance) and a run-scoped PostToolBatch hook
injects it into graph state at the next tool-batch boundary, records an
inline 'steer' content part on the response (replayed as a user message
on later turns), and streams on_steer_applied to the client.

Queuing: messages composed during a run auto-send as normal follow-up
turns after clean completion (one per final event, FIFO); user aborts
leave them as chips unless armed by interrupt-and-send.

Requires hook injectedMessages support in @librechat/agents
(danny-avila/agents#299); hard-gated via a capability probe so older
SDKs 501 the steer route instead of draining and dropping messages.

* 🧵 fix: Harden Steering Against Finalization Races and Route Guard Gaps

Addresses local Codex review findings on the steering feature:

- Close-and-drain the steer queue atomically at finalization (final event,
  abort) so a steer POST racing teardown is rejected instead of 202-ACKed
  and then silently cleared; the closed flag lives on the job hash and is
  reset when a replacement job reuses the stream id.
- Clear inherited steer queues on createJob — a job replacement must not
  drain the replaced run's messages.
- Keep steers queued across a HITL pause instead of draining them into
  ephemeral client state: resumeState re-seeds chips on reload and the
  resumed run injects them at its first tool boundary (steers key TTL now
  extends to the approval window; on_steers_pending event removed).
- Queue the NO_ACTIVE_RUN steer fallback while the final SSE is still
  settling — a direct send would be dropped by ask()'s in-flight guard.
- Reconcile the 202 ACK against on_steer_applied events that beat it over
  the SSE, so a chip can't be re-minted after its removal event passed.
- Allow the per-send Steer override when the default action is queue.
- Apply the configured message rate limiters and the PII filter to
  POST /chat/steer — a steer is model-bound user text.

*  ci: Assert Steering Capability Probe Against the Installed SDK

CI installs the published @librechat/agents pin (pre-injectedMessages),
where isSteeringSupported() is legitimately false — the probe test now
asserts it mirrors the installed SDK's capability flag instead of
hardcoding the capability-bearing build's value. Verified against both
the published 3.2.61 dist and the agents#299 build.

* 🛟 fix: Preserve Steer Text Across Run-End, Error, and Abort Races

Codex round 2 (4 P2s):
- Applied-steer-id set survives run end (capped at 100) and converted
  ids join it, so a 202 ACK that lands after final/abort drops its chip
  instead of re-minting a stranded pending one.
- Failed runs no longer strand acknowledged chips: both error paths
  convert local pending chips to queued follow-ups (chip text is
  client-local), and the server closes the steer queue before emitting
  the error so a racing steer POST gets 404 fallback instead of a 202
  whose payload dies with the job.
- sendQueuedNow keys on steer availability, not the default action —
  send-now on a queued chip is an explicit override for queue-preferring
  users.
- Stop path consumes pendingSteers from the abort HTTP response as a
  fallback for the SSE final event it may close before processing;
  conversion is deduped so double delivery is a no-op (shared
  useSteerConvert hook).

* 📎 feat: Carry Attachments Through During-Run Queued Messages

Steering stays text-only (SDK injection, inline STEER part, and replay
are all text), so a during-run submit with media now queues the whole
message as one unit instead of silently stranding the files:

- QueuedMessage gains `files`; composer attachments are consumed into
  the queued item at queue time (steerFromComposer / queueFromComposer /
  interruptAndSend), fixing the latent hazard where lingering composer
  files glued onto whatever `ask` vacuumed up next.
- Enter-steer with attachments degrades to queue with an explanatory
  toast; the per-send menu routes through the same composer-aware
  wrappers.
- The drain and sendQueuedNow pass the item's files as `overrideFiles`;
  media items never steer (send as a normal turn when idle, re-front
  otherwise). ask() no longer clears composer state for caller-supplied
  overrideFiles — only regenerate keeps that behavior.
- During-run submits hold while uploads are in flight, mirroring the
  send button's filesLoading gate; queued chips show a paperclip count.

* 🎛️ feat: Rework During-Run Chips into Action Rows

Full-width rows above the composer (reference-UI parity): each queued
message shows a primary Steer/Send-now action, delete, and a "…" menu
with Edit message (restores text + attachments into the composer) and a
Turn on queueing/steering toggle that flips the Enter default. Steer
rows share the layout with status text; failed steers keep retry /
edit / queue-convert. The per-send menu gains the same default toggle.
Queued file refs now retain filename + bytes so edit-restore rebuilds
real composer entries (draft-recovery shape).

* 🖇️ feat: Steer With Attachments (Multimodal Mid-Run Injection)

Steering now carries media end-to-end instead of degrading to queue:

- The steer POST accepts sanitized attachment refs (cap 10; only
  file_id is trusted — the drain re-fetches owner-scoped and re-derives
  everything else). SteerQueueItem/TPendingSteer/SteerContentPart carry
  `files` refs; encoded data is never persisted or queued.
- New api/server/services/Files/steering.js decouples attachment
  building from the request path: encodeSteerContent reuses the exact
  per-turn pipeline (addFileContextToMessage + processAttachments'
  single-pass categorize/encode, SDK formatMessage assembly,
  prependFileContext for extracted text) with zero new encoding code.
  buildSteerMedia feeds the drain hook's new buildMedia seam (any
  failure degrades that steer to text-only — words always land);
  stampSteerPartMedia re-encodes past steer parts per turn with ONE
  batched owner-scoped fetch and stamps a transient `media` array,
  replaced immutably so it can never leak into a save. Replay honors
  resendFiles like regular message media.
- The SDK's formatAgentMessages (the formatter agents actually use)
  gained the steer replay branch on the PR branch; the local
  formatMessages.js branch now mirrors the media preference.
- Client: steerFromComposer consumes composer files into the POST,
  chips/seeding/conversions carry files everywhere (retry, queue
  convert, abort/error recovery), queued media items steer for real,
  and SteerBubble renders the steered attachments inline.

* 🧵 fix: Harden Steer Recovery Races and Drain Isolation

Codex round 3 (7 fixes):
- A 202 ACK landing after the run ended converts straight to a queued
  follow-up (server queue is gone; no event will ever resolve a pending
  chip for a finished run). Covers stream errors with in-flight POSTs.
- A Stop that lands pre-completion can arrive as a final with
  unfinished:true and no aborted flag — runEnd now treats it as aborted
  so queued messages are not auto-sent against the user's Stop.
- Leftover-steer conversion merges chronologically by createdAt instead
  of appending, preserving the order the user composed.
- Auto-drained queued messages pass explicit (possibly empty)
  overrideFiles/overrideQuotes/overrideManualSkills: a drain can no
  longer vacuum up files, quotes, or skill picks staged in the composer
  for the user's NEXT message (ask() treats overrideFiles != null as
  authoritative).
- Failed-steer Retry and resume-on-load chip restoration keep the
  steer's attachments.
- The job-replacement guard moved INSIDE the store's atomic
  drain/close-and-drain (Lua createdAt compare; in-memory equivalent):
  a stale run's hook or finalization can neither consume, close, nor
  steal a replacement job's steer queue, and the drain hook drops its
  separate check-then-drain round trip.

* 🧰 refactor: Typed Steer Controller, Single-Query Media Pass, Round-4 Fixes

Codex round 4 + efficiency tightening in one pass:

- Moved the steer guard ladder (validation, file sanitization via a
  shared toSteerFileRef picker, ownership/tenant checks, status-guarded
  enqueue) into packages/api as handleSteerRequest; api/steer.js is now
  a thin wrapper. Ladder covered against the REAL in-memory job manager
  in request.spec.ts; the api spec pins only the wrapper contract.
- Folded the steer replay stamp into the turn's ONE historical-files
  query: collectHistoricalFileRefs also gathers steer-part refs, the
  owner-scoped doc map rides client state, and stampSteerPartMedia
  consumes it (no second round trip) while encoding parts in parallel.
- Stamped steer media now counts against the run budget (existing
  multimodal counter over the non-text parts, folded into
  indexTokenCountMap/promptTokens after the stamp).
- Steer route runs the PII filter BEFORE moderateText, matching chat.js
  so blocked sensitive text never reaches the external moderation API.
- Interrupt & send survives the abort-response-beats-SSE-final race:
  stopGenerating writes the run-end signal itself when the one-shot
  interrupt flag is armed and no signal landed (double-fire safe).
- Resume reconciles chips against the server's still-queued list even
  when EMPTY, clearing chips for steers applied while disconnected.
- The local formatter's steer flush preserves non-text assistant parts
  (array-content AIMessage) instead of folding to text.

* 🔒 fix: Replay-Aware Capability Gate and Round-5 Race Closures

- isSteeringSupported now requires BOTH halves of the SDK contract:
  injection (HOOK_INJECTED_MESSAGES_CAPABLE) AND replay
  (ContentTypes.STEER, shipped in the same SDK commit as the
  formatAgentMessages steer branch). An SDK that can inject but not
  replay 501s the steer route — no release window can create steer
  parts that would leak into provider-facing assistant content.
- The local formatter mirrors the SDK's anchor reset: a post-steer
  tool_call mints a fresh AIMessage instead of attaching to the
  pre-steer anchor (invalid provider ordering).
- Queued-chip send-now and the NO_ACTIVE_RUN fallback pass explicit
  (possibly empty) overrideFiles so an idle send can't vacuum composer
  files staged for a different draft.
- Redis createJob deletes the stale steer list BEFORE the replacement
  hash is written as running — a steer 202-accepted against the new job
  can never be wiped by the reset.
- Resumed-turn finalization mirrors the normal path's terminal drain:
  createdAt-guarded close-and-drain, leftovers ride the resumed final
  event as pendingSteers instead of being cleared by completeJob.
- buildSteerMedia restores composer order over the $in result so
  multi-attachment steers reach the model in the order the user saw.

* ⚛️ fix: Atomic Job Replacement and Boundary-Clean Steering Module

Codex round 6 (5 fixed, 1 standing deferral):
- createJob resets the steer queue and writes the job hash in ONE
  same-slot Lua script (JOB_CREATE_LUA): a steer POST can no longer
  interleave between them on cluster, so a steer accepted against one
  run can never be drained into another. Redis-validated.
- The steering media pipeline moved to packages/api
  (agents/steering/media.ts) with injected getFiles and a structural
  client interface — /api keeps zero steering logic; specs ported to
  the DI seam.
- handleSteerRequest checks the job BEFORE the capability gate: a steer
  racing completion on an unsupported SDK gets 404 (send-now) instead
  of a 501 queue with no run-end signal left to drain it.
- useQueueDrain binds to the active conversation: navigating away
  between the final SSE and the drain effect leaves the signal
  unconsumed instead of submitting A's follow-up into B; the drain
  fires on return.
- abortJob closes and drains the steer queue BEFORE the content
  snapshot, so a drain-hook apply that lands pre-drain is captured
  inline rather than lost between the snapshot and the terminal drain.

* 🚦 fix: Parked Run-End Signals, Interrupt Priority, Settled-Run Fallbacks

Codex round 7 (5 fixes):
- Run-end signals for a non-active conversation are PARKED per
  conversation instead of squatting the shared index slot: a later run
  finishing on the same pane can no longer overwrite them, and the
  parked drain fires when the user returns.
- "Interrupt & send" front-inserts carry a priority flag that outranks
  createdAt when abort leftovers merge back chronologically — the
  urgent redirect drains first, not the oldest steer.
- STEER_UNSUPPORTED/RUN_PAUSED/QUEUE_FULL rejections landing after the
  run settled mirror the NO_ACTIVE_RUN fallback and send immediately
  (queueing would strand the text with no run-end signal left); on the
  pinned SDK this is the common Enter-near-run-end path.
- A failed abort (e.g. 404 when the run completed first) still signals
  the interrupt drain, so the queued interrupt message can't strand and
  the armed flag can't leak onto a later run.
- Steered-image fallback alt text is localized (com_ui_attached_image).

* 📌 chore: Adopt Published @librechat/agents Types Post-Bump

dev's pin bump to ^3.2.62 (the release carrying injection + steer
replay) landed via merge; the steering runtime now uses the SDK's real
InjectedMessage/hook-output types instead of the local structural
mirrors that bridged the pre-publish window. The two-half capability
probe stays as the defensive gate for mismatched deployments — and the
capability spec now exercises its TRUE path against the published
package in CI.

* 🛅 feat: Park-and-Claim Steer Recovery + Host-View Content Reads

Codex round 8 (6 fixed incl. both P1s, 1 push-back):
- The long-deferred no-subscriber gap is closed: every terminal drain
  (final, aborted-final, error, abortJob, resumed finalize) PARKS
  acknowledged leftovers on the job hash (unrecoveredSteers), and the
  status route claims them exactly once for inactive jobs — a client
  that closed/reloaded past the transient final event restores its
  steers as queued chips within the post-terminal TTL. A replacement
  run clears the parked copy (a live client started it).
- Same-instance content reads are steer-complete: RedisJobStore now
  caches the HOST content array (WeakRef) via setContentParts and
  prefers it over the SDK graph cache, whose view never contains
  host-authored steer parts; the graph fallback splice-INSERTS steer
  chunks at their recorded host-view indices (the graph array is
  unshifted, so assignment would overwrite SDK parts).
- Replay token accounting now counts prepended file-context text: full
  stamped content minus the steer body (already counted), so large
  steered documents hit the budget instead of bypassing pruning.
- The queue drain restores an item when ask() refuses without sending
  (history not yet in cache after navigating back) — text is never
  silently dropped.
- The armed interrupt flag travels WITH a parked run-end signal, so
  another run on the same pane can neither consume nor clear it.
- parseTextParts extracts steer text (search indexing / audio).

* 🎛️ refactor: Single Send Slot + In-Thread Steer Messages

- Merge the during-run send affordance into the send/stop button slot:
  with composer text the send button replaces Stop (Enter = default
  action), hover reveals Steer/Queue/Interrupt rows with shortcuts;
  drop the separate DuringRunActionsMenu chevron
- Add during-run keyboard chords: Cmd/Ctrl+Enter = non-default action,
  Alt+Enter = interrupt & send (plain-Enter submitters only)
- Render steers as standard user messages in the thread: SteerPart
  (icon + author header + user text presentation) replaces the
  SteerBubble, and submitted steers appear immediately at the projected
  injection point via the PendingSteers slot on the streaming message
- Keep composer rows only for recoverable states: failed steers
  (retry/edit/queue) and queued follow-ups

* 🩹 fix: Keep the Replacement Submission Alive Across Abort Settlement

The aborted run's final SSE event fires before the abort HTTP response
resolves, so an armed interrupt & send drains and starts the NEXT
submission while the abort POST is still in flight. The response
handler's unconditional clearAllSubmissions() then reset the new
submission, aborting its stream attach before the subscribe — the
follow-up ran and persisted server-side but the live placeholder
finalized empty (content appeared only after reload).

useAbortCleanup captures the submission before the abort round-trip
and both settlement paths (success and 404-catch) clear only when the
captured submission is still current; a replacement stays untouched.
Plain Stop behavior is unchanged.

* 🧭 test: Playwright E2E for Mid-Run Steering and Queuing

- Add e2e/specs/mock/steering.spec.ts: steer mid-run (202 + immediate
  in-thread pending part + real MCP tool boundary + words survive run
  end), Cmd/Ctrl+Enter queue with auto-send after clean completion,
  and Alt+Enter interrupt & send with the follow-up streaming into the
  live view
- Add the E2E_STEER_TOOL_REPLY fake-model marker: slow preamble, a
  real remember_fact MCP tool call (PostToolBatch boundary), then a
  final turn
- Test 1 pins the run-end degradation contract while the SDK's
  top-level agentId stamping bug blocks live injection; its header
  documents the assertions to flip once the fixed SDK is pinned

* 🧷 fix: Job-Independent Steer Recovery + Expiry and Resume-Gap Parking

Codex round 10: the park-and-claim recovery had lifecycle holes.

- Move parked steers off the job hash onto their own bounded-TTL store
  key (JOB_CREATE_LUA resets it; deleteJob leaves it alone): the default
  completeJob path deletes the job record immediately, and the Redis
  read path never deserialized the old hash field — recovery previously
  worked only with STREAM_KEEP_COMPLETED_JOBS on the in-memory store
- Carry the owner identity inside the parked payload and authorize the
  claim against it, so the status route recovers steers on its jobless
  branch too (the common reload-after-terminal case); a non-owner claim
  returns nothing and re-parks the payload
- Park queued steers on approval expiry: snapshot the frozen queue
  before the requires_action→aborted CAS (whose terminal cleanup drops
  the steers key) and park only when the CAS wins
- Mirror the terminal drain/park block in resume.js's failure path,
  which previously let completeJob's backstop clear 202-accepted steers
- Close the Redis snapshot→subscribe resume gap: re-peek the queue
  after attaching and re-surface missed on_steer_applied events from
  the durable content view (synthesizeAppliedSteerEvents), updating
  resumeState.pendingSteers to the live queue

* 📌 chore: Require @librechat/agents 3.2.63 + Applied-Steer E2E Contract

- Bump the @librechat/agents pin to ^3.2.63 in api/ and packages/api/:
  it scopes the hook agentId marker to subagent child graphs, so the
  steering drain hook fires at top-level tool-batch boundaries and
  mid-run injection is active (danny-avila/agents PR 307)
- Flip e2e steering test 1 from the documented degradation contract to
  the applied-steer contract: the optimistic in-thread part transitions
  to the persisted part at the tool boundary and survives inside the
  response after run end, with no queued follow-up turn

* 🎗️ feat: Steered Messages Join the Message-Nav Ribs

Steers are user messages, so they get their own clickable rib on the
navigation rail, interleaved at their in-thread position inside the
response that absorbed them (one DOM query in document order). SteerPart
anchors itself as #steer-<id> with a steer-render marker — both the
optimistic pending entry and the persisted part — and the rib carries
the user role label with a preview drawn from the steer's text body,
skipping the author header.

*  feat: Cancel a Queued Steer Before Injection + True User-Message Alignment

- Add POST /chat/steer/cancel: removes ONE still-queued steer by id via
  an atomic list rebuild (Redis Lua preserves order and TTL), authorized
  against the job owner; removed:false is advisory — the cancel lost its
  race to the drain or the run end, never an error
- Surface an × on the in-thread pending steer (server-acknowledged
  entries only): optimistic removal, restored if the POST fails since
  the server would still inject the words
- Outdent SteerPart past the response's icon column so steers sit flush
  with top-level message rows, reading as regular user messages

* 🧯 fix: Round-11 Recovery Hardening + Provider-Free Pending Slot

- Reconcile the resume steer gap by steerId SETS, not queue length — a
  steer added in the gap (or an equal-length drain+enqueue swap) now
  refreshes resumeState.pendingSteers and still synthesizes the missed
  on_steer_applied events
- Make completeJob's terminal backstop park: direct error-path callers
  without the controllers' close-and-park no longer silently clear
  202-accepted steers (createdAt-guarded closeAndDrain + owner park
  before the terminal write)
- Persist the steer part BEFORE media encoding in the drain hook: an
  abort inside the encode window can no longer lose a file-steer (the
  part refs come from the enqueue-sanitized item; replay re-encodes
  per turn unchanged)
- Move the parked-claim owner check INSIDE the atomic store claim
  (substring gate in the Lua / in-memory equivalent): a non-owner probe
  can no longer transiently delete the recovery payload; the app-side
  parse stays authoritative
- Park queued steers in BOTH stores' own requires_action expiry
  cleanup, which bypassed the manager-level sweep
- Sweep expired parked steers from the in-memory store's periodic
  cleanup; restore a queued chip when send-now's submit is refused;
  upsert steer ACKs so an SSE reconnect reseed cannot duplicate chips
- Mount the cancel mutation per steer item so the pending slot needs no
  QueryClient on ordinary streaming renders (fixes the CI failure in
  ContentParts.integration.test)
- Skipped delivery-gated parking (finding 8): transport receiver counts
  cannot prove browser delivery, and gating the only durable copy on
  them trades cosmetic chip resurrection for real text loss; the window
  is already bounded by claim-on-read, createJob reset, and the TTL

* 🩺 fix: Annotate PARKED_STEERS_TTL_MS for isolatedDeclarations

tsdown's d.ts generation requires explicit types on exported consts
with computed initializers; tsc --noEmit does not run that check, so
the round-11 export slipped past local verification and broke Build
packages (and every downstream CI job that consumes the built dist).

* 🛟 fix: Round-12 Terminal-Path Recovery + Durable Steer Events

- Park queued steers before the stale-running reap deletes a crashed or
  hung job in BOTH stores — the one terminal path with no controller
  finalization; requires_action expiry parking refactored onto the same
  snapshot/park helpers
- Enqueue instead of dropping when a steer fallback send is refused:
  both the NO_ACTIVE_RUN branch and the settled-run rejection branch
  now observe sendNow's false return
- Recover on the SSE reconnect-404 terminal path: convert local pending
  steers to queued, claim parked steers via /chat/status, and write a
  non-completed run-end signal so interrupt flags release without
  auto-sending an unknown outcome
- Fall back to a positive parked-recovery TTL when completedTtl is 0
  (SET EX 0 is invalid and silently killed recovery)
- Make on_steer_applied durable before publish: emitChunk gains a
  durable option that awaits the chunk-log append (best-effort) ahead
  of the transport publish; the default delta path stays fire-and-forget

* 🔐 fix: Round-13 Steer Authorization + Trusted File Refs

- Resolve client-supplied steer file refs against the DB owner-scoped
  at enqueue and queue only DB-derived shapes (same filter as the
  injection fetch, shared via refs.ts); any unresolved id fails loud
  with 400 — spoofed type/filepath metadata can no longer be persisted
  into assistant content or rendered in chat/share views
- Enforce agent authorization on /chat/steer against the ORIGINATING
  run's job identity: the chat path's role gate (AGENTS:USE, with the
  same non-agents-endpoint skip) plus the per-agent ACL check with the
  capability bypass — revoked access mid-run can no longer inject;
  cancel stays ownership-only (nothing model-bound)
- Mark steered uploads used after a successful enqueue (owner-scoped,
  best-effort) so the upload-window TTL cannot reap a file the
  persisted steer part references
- Consume the parked recovery copy after live delivery: converting
  final/abort/error pendingSteers fires one owner-gated claim-on-read,
  so dismissed chips can no longer resurrect on a later reload

* 🎙️ fix: Round-14 Composer-Context Fidelity + TTS and Queue-State Gaps

- Keep steer text out of generic assistant text extraction:
  parseTextParts excludes STEER parts by default with an includeSteer
  opt-in for the full-record surfaces (Meili indexing, aborted-response
  persistence) — TTS callers no longer speak the user's own mid-run
  words
- Mark queued uploads used at enqueue time via a minimal owner-scoped
  POST /files/usage (fail-closed without a user; upload limiters do not
  apply to a metadata touch), fired once wherever composer files enter
  the queued state — the upload-window TTL can no longer reap a file
  waiting out a long run or approval pause
- Carry quote chips and manual skill picks on queued items: captured
  and consumed from the composer at queue/interrupt time exactly like
  files, threaded through the drain and send-now overrides, and
  restored by the queued row's Edit message
- Key an early-aborted FIRST turn's run-end signal to NEW_CONVO
  (resolveRunEndTarget) so queued follow-ups stay visible on the
  restored new-chat composer instead of parking under an optimistic
  stream id the user never sees again

* 🧿 fix: Round-15 Gap Coverage + Consolidated Sweep (Share Leak, Abort Ids, Chip Hygiene)

- Run the resume steer-gap check for every still-active job: an empty
  snapshot no longer skips the re-peek, and synthesis now keys on the
  FRESH content view so an applied-in-gap steer that was never
  snapshotted still re-surfaces (over-emission is benign — applied-id
  dedupe, index-stable parts)
- Thread queued context through steer degradation: sendQueuedNow passes
  the item's quotes/skills into submitSteer, and every fallback
  (requeue or settled send) restores them instead of dropping to
  text+files
- Stop shared links from leaking steer attachment refs: the share
  snapshot now walks content — files-excluded shares strip steer-part
  files entirely; files-included shares sanitize and share-route them
  like top-level files (copy-on-write, non-steer content by reference)
- Seed pending-steer chips unconditionally on load/return so a steer
  applied while away cannot linger as a stale chip beside its part
- Use the abort response's resolved job id: chips/drain-signal land
  where the user actually is (NEW_CONVO for a new-held first turn,
  consistent with resolveRunEndTarget) while the parked-copy claim hits
  the resolved id instead of a no-op /chat/status/new
- Open steered documents like normal message files (FilePreviewDialog)
- Cap the applied-steer id set on the live path via a shared helper;
  kept surviving run end deliberately (late-ACK race depends on it) and
  fixed the atom comment that claimed otherwise

* 💡 fix: Un-light Steer Ribs When Their Node Is Replaced

Two stacked gaps kept a steer rib lit after scrolling away: the
pending→applied swap replaces the DOM node under the same id, which
produces no IntersectionObserver exit and — because the entry list
dedupes on (id, preview) — no entries change either, so the observer
kept watching a detached node; and the rail's mutation filter only
reacted to .message-render nodes, so steer-node swaps and removals
never triggered a refresh at all.

- reconcileObservedElements re-points the observer at replaced nodes
  from the mutation-driven refresh regardless of entries identity,
  dropping stale visibility until the fresh node reports (the observer
  fires its initial intersection immediately, so a truly visible part
  re-lights within a frame)
- The mutation filter now recognizes steer-render nodes alongside
  message rows

* 🪪 fix: Round-16 Recovery Owner Fields + Context Stickiness + Share Labels

- Park resumed-run leftovers with the manager facade's metadata owner
  fields: a bare job.userId is undefined on that shape, which made
  every parked payload from a resumed HITL run unclaimable
- Keep a queued item's quotes/skills sticky through a successful steer
  ACK: the pending chip carries them (client-only), reseeds preserve
  them across reconnects, and every terminal conversion — local or
  server-list, merged by steerId — restores them onto the queued item
- Convert resumeState.pendingSteers on the inactive status branch
  (deduped against unrecoveredSteers) so steers observed in the
  expired-pause-before-sweeper window convert instead of vanishing
  until a later reload
- Label shared steer parts share-safely via the existing ShareContext:
  a viewer's own name no longer appears on the sharer's steered
  messages

* ✂️ fix: Carry Steer Context Through the Failed-Chip Edit Action

Retry and convert-to-queue already preserve a failed steer's carried
quotes/skills; Edit message dropped them on the way back to the
composer. It now restores them through the same context path.

* 🧵 feat: Background Tool Calls for Agents & Model Specs

Opt-in, poll-based background tool execution. The model marks an eligible tool
call with `run_in_background: true`; the host executor registers a task, returns
a handle immediately (so the graph turn resolves), runs the tool as a detached
promise, and the model retrieves the result via a new `check_background_task`
poll tool. Host-side only — no `@librechat/agents` change.

- Opt-in mirrors `deferred_tools`: admin capability `run_in_background`
  (off by default) + per-tool `tool_options.run_in_background`.
- Model specs / ephemeral agents: `TModelSpec.runInBackground` /
  `TEphemeralAgent.run_in_background` synthesize per-tool options; both paths
  converge at `initializeAgent`.
- In-process task registry: scoped per user+conversation, idempotent by
  toolCallId (safe across resume/replay), capped, TTL-swept.
- Excludes direct-path / host-special / code-session tools. Subagents and push
  notifications are deferred follow-ups.

* 🩹 fix: Harden background tool calls (Codex review)

- Reliable per-agent execution gate: thread the injected `run_in_background`
  tool names from `initializeAgent` through `configurable.backgroundToolNames`
  (`toolRegistry` only reaches the executor for PTC/tool_search), fixing the
  silent no-op + unstripped-arg leak for ordinary event-driven tools.
- Enforce the per-tool opt-in at execution (`backgroundToolSet.has(name)`) so a
  non-opted-in tool can't be backgrounded via an extra arg.
- Gate the `check_background_task` interception on the run actually enabling
  background, so a user tool sharing that name still executes.
- Forward `backgroundToolsAvailable` to added-convo (multi-convo) agents.
- Exclude `web_search`/`file_search` from eligibility — their results are turned
  into user-visible attachments/citations only by the foreground toolEndCallback.

* 🩹 fix: Address Codex round 2 on background tool calls

- Idempotency scoped to run+turn: provider tool-call ids repeat across turns
  (e.g. `call_0`), so key the dedupe map by `runId::toolCallId` and sweep
  orphaned mappings — a later turn no longer collides with a retained task.
- Artifacts preserved: a backgrounded tool's artifact is processed through the
  same `toolEndCallback` as the foreground path (images/files/citations no
  longer silently dropped), best-effort/guarded.
- Forward the `run_in_background` capability to connected-agent discovery and
  subagent `processAgent` init, so a child agent's own event-driven tools work
  the same as when it runs as primary.
- Strip the injected flag on foreground calls of background-capable tools
  (the model may emit it as `false`) so strict MCP/action schemas don't reject.
- `check_background_task` list path returns metadata only (result_available /
  result_chars), never full results — prevents context overflow; the full
  result is returned only when a specific id is requested.

* 🩹 fix: Address Codex round 3 on background tool calls

- Exclude background-capable tools from eager execution (run.ts): a speculative
  eager dispatch of a `run_in_background` call could launch the detached task
  with partial/stale args, and that side effect can't be canceled.
- Reserve the `check_background_task` name: overwrite a colliding user/MCP tool
  with the host poll schema (with a warning) so the advertised schema matches
  the executor's interception instead of hijacking a mismatched tool.
- Don't inject background schemas into pure subagents (spawn-tool child graphs)
  whose tools don't reach the host interceptor; keep it for primary/added/
  connected agents. Subagent background is the durable follow-up.
- Thread `backgroundToolsAvailable` + `backgroundToolNames` through the
  OpenAI-compatible and Responses agent routes (was chat-only), so the same
  agent/model spec behaves consistently across surfaces.
- Exclude image-generation built-ins (dalle/flux/gemini_image_gen/image_gen_oai/
  image_edit_oai) — artifact-first tools whose files can't reliably attach to an
  already-saved turn when backgrounded.

* 🩹 fix: Address Codex round 4 on background tool calls

- Sanitize self-spawn subagent inputs: strip `run_in_background` + the
  `check_background_task` def from the parent AgentInputs reused for self-spawn,
  so the isolated child (direct/child-graph path) doesn't advertise a background
  schema it can't honor. The SDK resolver keeps a provided `agentInputs` even
  with `self: true`.
- Exclude `check_background_task` from PTC (`run_tools_with_code`) tool
  definitions — it's host-only and not callable from generated code.
- Parse stringified JSON args before deciding background dispatch and before
  stripping the flag, so string-delivered `run_in_background` is honored and
  never leaks to strict object-schema tools.
- Skip injection for tools that already declare their own `run_in_background`
  param (would otherwise hijack/strip it), and for non-object (string-input)
  schemas (would otherwise rewrite the input contract).

* 🩹 fix: Address Codex round 5 on background tool calls

- check_background_task now parses stringified JSON args, so providers that
  deliver args as a string can retrieve a specific task by id (not just list).
- Include agentId in the background dedupe key (`agentId::runId::toolCallId`):
  two agents in the same run emitting the same provider id (e.g. `call_0`) now
  launch independent tasks instead of colliding.
- Self-spawn sanitization also strips the background entries from the reused
  toolRegistry (not just toolDefinitions), so a child using tool_search/deferred
  loading can't rediscover the host-only run_in_background / check_background_task.

* 🩹 fix: Strip run_in_background from PTC target tool schemas (Codex round 6)

The PTC path already filtered out the host-only check_background_task poll tool
but still exposed target tool schemas with the injected `run_in_background` param
(the shared toolRegistry entries were mutated by applyBackgroundToolCalls). PTC
codegen doesn't go through the host background interceptor, so it could pass the
flag to an MCP/action tool (strict-schema rejection or silent foreground with no
poll). Sanitize the PTC toolDefs like the self-spawn path does.

* 🩹 fix: Sanitize background from explicit subagent inputs (Codex round 7)

A child agent reachable as a top-level/handoff agent is initialized WITH the
background capability, then reused as an explicit subagent via buildSubagentConfigs.
Round 4 only sanitized the self-spawn case; this now applies the same
stripBackgroundFromToolDefinitions/Registry to explicit child agentInputs when
`child.backgroundToolNames` is non-empty, so an isolated child graph doesn't
advertise a run_in_background / check_background_task contract it can't honor.

* 🩹 fix: Reap stuck/expired background tasks (Codex round 8)

- get() now sweeps before returning, so repeatedly polling a known
  background_task_id can't keep an expired completed task (and its retained
  result, up to 100k chars) alive past the one-hour completed TTL.
- sweep() now reaps `running` tasks older than a 30-min running TTL, marking
  them errored. Previously a detached call that never settled (hung network /
  lost MCP connection) held a running slot forever, exhausting the
  per-conversation cap and rejecting every later dispatch.

* 🩹 fix: Evict oldest settled tasks instead of blocking at the cap (Codex round 9)

Only the running-task cap gates dispatch now. The total-tasks cap
(MAX_TASKS_PER_BUCKET) bounds memory but no longer rejects new background calls:
when full, it evicts the oldest settled (completed/error) tasks to make room.
Previously 200 quick background calls in one conversation would block all new
dispatches for up to the completed-task TTL, since polling doesn't remove settled
tasks. Running is already capped, so room always frees.

* 📝 docs: Frame background tool calls as within-turn (Codex P1 contract)

Codex escalated the request-lifecycle findings to P1 on the grounds that the
advertised "poll later" contract can't be honored for genuinely long-running
calls (request-scoped MCP connections + the run abort signal are torn down at
turn end). Align the model-facing contract with what the same-run implementation
actually delivers: the run_in_background param, check_background_task, and the
dispatch handle now instruct the model to collect the result WITHIN THE SAME TURN
(backgrounded work isn't guaranteed to survive past the turn). This is
within-turn parallelism; cross-turn survival of long-running calls remains the
deliberate durable subagent follow-up. Copy/comment-only; no behavior change.

* ♻️ refactor: Cross-turn background tool calls, leak-free

Extend background tool calls from within-turn to cross-turn on a single
process, since the mechanism already supports it: the run's abort signal
never reaches the detached invoke (the graph forwards only configurable/
metadata to the tool-execute handler), so the floating promise keeps
running past turn completion and its result stays in the in-process
registry for a later turn to poll (get/list key only on
user::conversation + id, never the dispatch run/turn).

Guarantee no connection leak: ephemeral request-scoped MCP tools (runtime
{{LIBRECHAT_BODY_*}} placeholders) capture their request-scoped store at
creation and fall back to it, so config manipulation can't redirect them;
their connection is torn down at request end. Tag such tools in
createToolInstance and run them in the foreground instead of backgrounding
them. Pooled/app-level MCP and structured tools are unaffected and survive
cross-turn via their managed pools.

Reword the model-facing contract (run_in_background, check_background_task,
handle message, fileoverview) from within-turn to cross-turn on this server
(not across restart/replica, which stays the durable follow-up).

Tests: cross-turn poll retrieval; ephemeral MCP tool runs foreground.

* 🐛 fix: Guard ephemeral MCP tag against a null server config

createToolInstance can be reached with a null/stale capturedServerConfig
(cached availableTools + getServerConfig returns null, as several MCP unit
tests construct tools). The new unconditional requiresEphemeralUserConnection
call then dereferenced config.source and threw during tool construction
(CI: Tests api shard 2/3). Guard with the same serverConfig ? ... : false
pattern the other callers use; a missing config is not request-scoped.

* 🎨 fix: Deliver backgrounded tool artifacts on the poll turn

A slow backgrounded MCP/action tool resolves after its dispatch turn is
finalized: createToolEndCallback only appends to that turn's artifactPromises
(already awaited) and writes to a closed stream, so the artifact (file/citation/
UI resource) was silently dropped — check_background_task recorded only the
hasArtifact boolean. The cross-turn contract made this the common case.

Hold the artifact on the task and deliver it through the LIVE poll turn's
toolEndCallback the first time check_background_task collects that id (once,
then cleared to free memory), attributed to the original tool. Same-turn and
cross-turn now share this path since the model must poll to collect any result.

Tests: registry claim-once; artifact delivered on poll not dispatch, idempotent.

*  feat: Agent-builder toggle for background tool calls + cap tool descriptions

Add a per-MCP-tool "run in background" toggle in the agent builder, mirroring
the programmatic/deferred pattern: gated on the admin `run_in_background`
capability via useAgentCapabilities, read/written on tool_options[id]
.run_in_background through useMCPToolOptions (per-tool + bulk mark-all), and
rendered as a Zap toggle in MCPToolItem and McpSection with new locale keys.

Also cap the section tool/server descriptions (McpSection, ToolSection,
SkillSection) with max-h-40 overflow-y-auto so a long description scrolls
instead of overflowing the dialog, matching MCPToolItem's existing cap.

Tests: MCPToolItem renders/toggles the background button only when enabled.

* 🧪 fix: Mock new background hook functions in McpSection spec

* 🎨 fix: Restore background artifact when poll-turn delivery fails

* 🛡️ fix: Harden background tool call edges from review findings

- Error immediately (matching foreground) when a background-requested tool
  failed to load, instead of returning a success handle for a dead task
- Exclude ephemeral request-scoped MCP tools at injection time so the model
  never sees a run_in_background param the executor would silently downgrade;
  flip the execute-time tag to fail closed on a missing server config
- Source image-tool background exclusions from the shared imageGenTools set
  (adds missing stable-diffusion, an artifact-first live tool) instead of a
  hand-copied list
- Add check_background_task to the eager-execution exclusion list: artifact
  collection is a one-shot claim that must not fire from a speculative
  snapshot the SDK may discard
- Strip an imitated run_in_background arg on tools the executing agent never
  opted in (multi-agent history bleed), unless the tool's own schema declares
  the parameter
- Truncate oversized stored results with an explicit marker via the shared
  truncateMiddle (moved to utils/text) instead of a silent slice
- Document the at-most-once artifact delivery semantics honestly (the
  callback's downstream persistence is fire-and-forget, as in foreground)

* ♻️ refactor: Deduplicate background tool-call plumbing and tighten types

- Use the SDK's JsonSchemaType instead of a local duplicate; drop all
  as-unknown casts and type the poll-tool serializer explicitly
- Drop derivable BackgroundTask state (progress, hasArtifact) and the dead
  `enabled` param/return on applyBackgroundToolCalls (guarded at the call
  site), which also skips the defs pass when nothing opted in
- Fold the enable expression into synthesizeBackgroundToolOptions so the
  three load/added call sites can't drift
- Throttle the registry's all-buckets sweep and always sweep the accessed
  bucket, so a hot poll loop is no longer O(total tasks server-wide); bound
  retained artifact memory with a size cap
- Single-pass stripBackgroundFromToolDefinitions; pass metadata through to
  the poll-turn callback instead of a no-op reconstruction
- Collapse the client's copy-pasted boolean option families into a keyed
  factory (also removes the shared-object mutation in the bulk toggles) and
  the six toggle-button copies into one OptionToggle component

* 🧪 test: e2e coverage for cross-turn background tool calls

Proves the full contract through the real pipeline (mock harness): an agent
opts an MCP tool in via tool_options.run_in_background, the model dispatches
it detached and receives the synthetic handle while the tool is still running
(status=running in the rendered ack — the non-blocking guarantee without
timing assertions), the tool completes after its turn finalized, and a later
user turn recovers the task id from replayed history, polls
check_background_task, and renders the collected result.

  (derived from app capabilities like codeEnvAvailable/statefulSessions),
  so agents with tool_options.run_in_background keep the feature on that
  route; fold the three capability derivations into one helper
- Index ephemeral MCP servers by normalizeServerName when excluding tools
  from background injection: tool names embed the normalized server name
  while mcpConfig keys the original, so exotic server names previously
  escaped the injection-time exclusion

* 🛂 fix: Fall back to configurable user identity for background task scoping

The in-repo routes merge req into the tool-execute configurable, but external
hosts of the exported OpenAI-compatible service inject their own loadTools and
may not — tasks would then register under an empty user id, collapsing
registry isolation to conversationId alone. Resolve the scoping id from
req.user.id, then configurable.user_id / user, and cover the isolation with a
foreign-user not_found test.

* 🧹 chore: Apply repo import sorter to PR-touched files

🧰 feat: Redesign Agent Builder with Unified Tools Marketplace, Skills & Orchestration (#13952)
* feat: redesign the agent builder tools, skills, and advanced panels

Replace the stacked capability/MCP/skill/tool/action form sections with a unified tools marketplace, per-item configuration dialogs, and a consolidated Advanced panel.

- unified tools marketplace (catalog, sidebar, polymorphic cards/rows) covering built-in capabilities, plugins, MCP servers, and actions, each with a detail/config dialog
- dedicated Skills picker and a Tools section with selected-item summaries and empty states
- redesigned action editor and authentication dialog (method cards, segmented controls)
- rebuilt Advanced panel: orchestration hub (subagents, handoffs, chain), max steps, skills kill-switch, copyable agent id
- restyled version history (timeline, tool/capability counts, in-app restore confirmation)
- shared component updates (Radio, Input/Textarea, dropdown z-index, dialog primitives) and keyboard-only focus rings via useInputModality
- format-hint placeholders for tool credential fields
- sanitize numeric parameter inputs to prevent comma truncation

* feat: refine agent builder tools, actions, and MCP sections

* feat: restore Memory capability toggle in agent builder tools catalog

* feat: refine agent tools picker (skills, MCP connect/OAuth, web search)

- Skills picker: per-card visibility (public) and shared-author badges,
  category filtering, and an in-place Create skill flow that auto-attaches
  the new skill without leaving the builder
- MCP: inline Connect button in the first dialog plus a dedicated OAuth
  dialog (continue, copyable URL, QR code) shown only when OAuth is required
- Web search: auth-aware affordance, settings cog when user-provided and an
  info icon when system-defined
- Remove orphaned com_ui_unavailable/com_ui_initializing keys and the dead
  Tools/MCPToolItem component

* refactor: streamline MCP OAuth dialog

- Remove the Cancel button (the flow auto-closes on connect / times out)
- Show the URL in a read-only single-line scrollable input (cursor moves
  through it, not fully visible) with the shared CopyButton's smooth
  Copy/Check icon swap, matching the OAuth callback-URL field
- Put the primary Continue with OAuth action (icon trailing) and an
  icon-only QR toggle together in a row at the bottom, below the URL
- The QR reveals between the description and the URL with a smooth height
  animation (grid-rows 0fr to 1fr, matching MCPToolItem's reveal)

* feat: smoothly collapse MCP connect button once connected

* feat: cross-fade MCP tools between loading, list, and empty states

* feat: show MCP server icon in OAuth dialog title

* fix: vertically center OAuth dialog title against the MCP icon

* feat: smoothly animate auth field changes in the MCP server dialog

* feat: match Code Interpreter file upload to the File Search dropzone

Swap Code Interpreter's thin btn-neutral bar for the same dashed dropzone
(DropzoneContent + dropzoneClassName) File Search already uses, so the two
capabilities' upload UIs are consistent.

* feat: show a saving spinner and allow cancelling credential edits

Drive the tool credential Save button from the real mutation state so it
shows a spinner while the request is in flight, and add a Cancel button
when re-editing already-saved credentials so the edit can be dismissed.

* feat: make the skills create button a compact icon button

* fix: restore MCP attach semantics and confirmations in the tools marketplace

Connecting an MCP server from the item dialog now enables all of its tools
once the connection settles, deselect-all keeps the server attached via its
placeholder token instead of detaching it, adding a server writes the token
so a zero-tool attachment survives a save, and removing a server from the
tools list asks for confirmation again. Consume-only servers are excluded
from the catalog, matching the old select dialog.

Also share the catalog/selection pipeline between ToolsSection and the
marketplace through useAgentItems, hoist NEW_ACTION_ID next to ActionItem,
drop unused status/view union members and stale TranslationKeys casts,
document the phase-2 Favorites/Made-by-you views, fix the needs-setup dot
semantics and card focus suppression, remove the redundant close button in
CreateSkillDialog, move useInputModality into @librechat/client so external
consumers can mount it, and delete dead files and orphaned translation keys.

* fix: scope tooltip elevation to dialogs and restore dialog close button size

Tooltips go back to z-150 globally; inside a dialog they now borrow the
depth-aware popover z-index so they still clear nested dialogs (the Tool
Library item dialog) without outranking freshly opened modals everywhere
else. The default dialog close icon returns to its original size, and the
lc-field pointer-focus suppression ships with the package next to Input and
Textarea so external consumers get the whole mechanism from @librechat/client.

* feat: add favorites for marketplace tools, MCP servers, and skills

Reintroduce the favorite star from the old skill picker, generalized to
every marketplace item kind except per-agent actions. Cards in the Tool
Library and Skills dialogs get a hover-revealed star (always visible once
favorited), and the existing Favorites views in both dialogs now filter to
starred items.

Favorites persist in a dedicated ToolFavorite collection, one document per
(user, itemType, itemId) with a unique compound index, exposed through
atomic per-item PUT/DELETE endpoints under /api/user/settings/favorites/
tools. Per-item writes are idempotent and race-free across tabs/devices
(the unique index backstops concurrent toggles), reads are a single
index-backed query capped at 100 favorites per user, and the client keeps
React Query as the source of truth with optimistic updates. Handlers live
in @librechat/api with a thin route wrapper; methods follow the
data-schemas factory pattern with tenant isolation.

The favorites filter now matches on compound kind:id keys instead of bare
ids, closing a cross-kind collision where a tool and a skill sharing an id
would both match. The skill-favorites data-service stubs and the reserved
TUserFavorite.skillId field are replaced by the new tool-favorites service.

* feat: anchor the favorite star at the card's right edge

Swap the ToolCard action-bar order so the star sits rightmost with the
configure/info icon to its left. Every card can be favorited but only some
are configurable, so anchoring the star keeps it in a consistent position
across the grid.

* chore: remove translation keys orphaned by the tool library redesign

* fix: gate marketplace creation entries and resolve off-page selected skills

The Create New menu exposed MCP server creation to users without the
MCP_SERVERS create permission and action creation on deployments with the
actions capability disabled; both entries are now gated like their
pre-redesign counterparts, and the button hides when neither applies.

Selected skills missing from the first catalog page (limit 100) were
dropped from the Skills section entirely, leaving them impossible to
inspect or remove. useResolvedSkills restores the per-id lookup: off-page
skills are fetched individually and confirmed misses (deleted or no longer
shared) stay visible under an Unavailable skill placeholder so the stale
allowlist entry remains removable.

* fix: refetch favorites when toggled before the list loads, lint fixes

An optimistic favorite written over an unpopulated cache seeded the list
with only the toggled item, and cancelQueries killed the initial fetch
that would have corrected it, hiding existing favorites until reload. The
optimistic write now only applies over known data; otherwise onSettled
invalidates so the authoritative list is refetched.

Also unnest the version date-label ternary and drop an unused form watch
flagged by CI.

* fix: sync skills_enabled with selection edits and hydrate agent file entries

skills_enabled is the master opt-in for the skill allowlist, and an empty
allowlist with the flag on means the full accessible catalog. Selection
edits now sync the flag on empty/non-empty transitions via a shared
skillsEnabledTransition helper: picking the first skill enables it so the
choice takes effect on save, and removing the last one disables it so the
agent doesn't silently escalate to every skill. Mid-selection edits leave
the flag alone, preserving the Advanced kill switch's
disable-without-clearing behavior.

Agents loaded from the API carry only tool_resources.*.file_ids; the
client-only context/knowledge/code file entry arrays were read directly,
so existing attachments rendered as empty and could not be removed. A new
useAgentFileEntries hook restores the legacy derivation (agent files query
merged into the file map via processAgentOption) and now feeds AgentConfig,
the item dialog, and the selected-items pipeline.

* fix: hide plugin tools from the marketplace when the tools capability is off

buildCatalog gated built-ins, MCP, and skills on their capabilities and
permissions but pushed regular plugin tools unconditionally, so deployments
that removed the tools capability still offered attachable tool cards in
the marketplace. The loop now requires AgentCapabilities.tools, matching
the old Add Tools gate.

* fix: strip legacy MCP tokens on removal, guard action creation, model button spacing

MCP selection accepts every historical token format (server placeholder,
raw server name, mcp_-prefixed, and per-tool ids in prefix/suffix shapes)
but removal only filtered the new placeholder plus the server's current
tool ids, so a legacy token left the server permanently selected and its
tools still expanded after save. Selection and removal now share a
matchesMcpServer predicate.

Creating an action from the marketplace on an unsaved agent opened an
editor whose save was guaranteed to fail; it now surfaces the existing
save-the-agent-first error, matching the action-removal guard.

The model picker button keeps its tight px-1 with a provider icon but gets
px-3 in the empty Select-a-model state so the placeholder is not flush
against the border.

* fix: strip legacy prefix MCP tokens in useRemoveMCPTool

The hook only filtered the raw server name and suffix-delimiter tokens,
so confirming removal in the selected-tools section left persisted
prefix-format tokens (mcp_<server>, mcp_<server>_<tool>) in the form and
the row reappeared as selected. It now shares the matchesMcpServer
predicate with the selection logic so removal can never lag selection.

* fix: exact MCP token matching and keep errored skill lookups removable

The mcp_<server>_ prefix clause in matchesMcpServer was invented by the
redesign, not a persisted format (mcp_prefix is only ever used as the
exact mcp_<serverName> pluginKey), and it claimed longer server names
sharing a prefix: with servers github and github_extra, removing github
also stripped github_extra's tokens. The predicate now only matches exact
or delimiter-bounded shapes.

An off-page selected skill whose per-id lookup failed with a transient
error (retry disabled) vanished from the selected list until remount. Any
settled lookup failure now keeps the placeholder entry so the allowlist id
stays visible and removable; only in-flight lookups are briefly hidden.

* fix: route file-backed built-in removal to the file manager

Code Interpreter and File Search stay selected while they hold code_files
or knowledge_files, so removing them by flipping the capability flag left
the row visible and unremovable. Their removal now opens the config dialog
where the files are managed, mirroring the file-only context built-in;
with no files attached the flag still toggles off for a clean removal.

* fix: preserve negative values in numeric parameter inputs

sanitizeIntegerInput stripped every non-digit, so typing -1 in a numeric
parameter field became 1. That broke Google thinkingBudget, where -1 is
the dynamic/auto-thinking sentinel (range min is -1): users could no
longer select auto and risked sending a one-token budget. The sanitizer
now takes an opt-in allowNegative flag that keeps a single leading minus,
and DynamicInput passes it when the field's range permits negatives.
Thousands-separator cleanup is unchanged for all other fields.

* fix: keep in-progress negative numeric input and localize the actions heading

Typing a leading minus in a negative-capable numeric parameter (Google
thinkingBudget) sanitized to a lone '-', which was then coerced by
Number('-') to NaN, so the sign could not be typed before the digits. The
lone '-' is now stored as a string until a digit resolves it to a number,
matching how the empty-string case is already handled.

The agent builder actions panel heading hard-coded 'Add'/'Edit actions';
it now uses com_assistants_add_actions and a restored
com_assistants_edit_actions key so non-English locales translate it.

* chore: fix import order drift flagged by CI

* fix: treat pending web-search auth verification as needs_setup

While useVerifyAgentToolAuth is still loading, data is undefined so
web_search was not marked needs_setup, and the marketplace card takes the
direct-enable path only when status is not needs_setup. On a slow
connection a click before the response arrived enabled web_search without
collecting the required user-provided key. The auth map now flags
web_search needs_setup while the query is loading, routing the click to
the config dialog; once verification resolves, a system-defined deployment
or a satisfied key clears the flag for a direct toggle.

* test: update agent builder e2e selectors
