createBranchedSession() wrote the file and set flushed=true even when the
branched path had no assistant message. The next _persist() call saw no
assistant, reset flushed=false, and the subsequent flush appended all
in-memory entries to the already-populated file, duplicating the header
and entries.
Fix: defer file creation when the branched path has no assistant message,
matching the newSession() contract. _persist() creates the file on the
first assistant response.
closes#1672
Breaking changes:
- Settings: 'hooks' and 'customTools' arrays replaced with 'extensions'
- CLI: '--hook' and '--tool' flags replaced with '--extension' / '-e'
- API: HookMessage renamed to CustomMessage, role 'hookMessage' to 'custom'
- API: FileSlashCommand renamed to PromptTemplate
- API: discoverSlashCommands() renamed to discoverPromptTemplates()
- Directories: commands/ renamed to prompts/ for prompt templates
Migration:
- Session version bumped to 3 (auto-migrates v2 sessions)
- Old 'hookMessage' role entries converted to 'custom'
Structural changes:
- src/core/hooks/ and src/core/custom-tools/ merged into src/core/extensions/
- src/core/slash-commands.ts renamed to src/core/prompt-templates.ts
- examples/hooks/ and examples/custom-tools/ merged into examples/extensions/
- docs/hooks.md and docs/custom-tools.md merged into docs/extensions.md
New test coverage:
- test/extensions-runner.test.ts (10 tests)
- test/extensions-discovery.test.ts (26 tests)
- test/prompt-templates.test.ts
- CustomAgentTool renamed to CustomTool
- ToolAPI renamed to CustomToolAPI
- ToolContext renamed to CustomToolContext
- ToolSessionEvent renamed to CustomToolSessionEvent
- Added CustomToolContext parameter to execute() and onSession()
- CustomToolFactory now returns CustomTool<any, any> for type compatibility
- dispose() replaced with onSession({ reason: 'shutdown' })
- Added wrapCustomTool() to convert CustomTool to AgentTool
- Session exposes setToolUIContext() instead of leaking internals
- Fix ToolExecutionComponent to sync with toolOutputExpanded state
- Update all custom tool examples for new API
- Add test/utilities.ts with shared helpers (API_KEY, userMsg, assistantMsg, createTestSession)
- Add agent-session-tree-navigation.test.ts with e2e tests for tree navigation
- Add getChildren() method to SessionManager
- Add summaryEntry to navigateTree return type
- Update existing tests to use shared utilities
- Check response.stopReason instead of catching errors for abort detection
- Return result object from _generateBranchSummary instead of throwing
- Fix summary attachment: attach to navigation target position, not old branch
- Support root-level summaries (parentId=null) in branchWithSummary
- Remove setTimeout hack for re-showing tree selector on abort
Major changes:
- Replace monolithic SessionEvent with reason discriminator with individual
event types: session_start, session_before_switch, session_switch,
session_before_new, session_new, session_before_branch, session_branch,
session_before_compact, session_compact, session_shutdown
- Each event has dedicated result type (SessionBeforeSwitchResult, etc.)
- HookHandler type now allows bare return statements (void in return type)
- HookAPI.on() has proper overloads for each event with correct typing
Additional fixes:
- AgentSession now always subscribes to agent in constructor (was only
subscribing when external subscribe() called, breaking internal handlers)
- Standardize on undefined over null throughout codebase
- HookUIContext methods return undefined instead of null
- SessionManager methods return undefined instead of null
- Simplify hook exports to 'export type * from types.js'
- Add detailed JSDoc for skipConversationRestore vs cancel
- Fix createBranchedSession to rebuild index in persist mode
- newSession() now returns the session file path
Updated all example hooks, tests, and emission sites to use new event types.
