+After each Gateway-backed run, DeerFlow evaluates the visible conversation, including the assistant's tool calls and shortened tool results, against the active goal with a non-thinking evaluator model. A successful tool result alone does not satisfy a goal, and when the assistant had to guess missing or ambiguous information the evaluator reports `needs_user_input`.

 The Web UI shows the active goal above the composer. The same command is available from the TUI and supported IM channels. In the Web UI and supported IM channels, setting `/goal <completion condition>` also starts a run with the condition as the task; status and clear commands only manage goal state. Setting or clearing a goal is rejected while that thread has a run in flight, including a run owned by another Gateway worker, so the goal checkpoint cannot branch away from an active run's checkpoint lineage.

 - Redis `StreamBridge` keys use a rolling retained-buffer TTL (`stream_bridge.stream_ttl_seconds`, refreshed on `publish()` / `publish_end()`) as a leak safety net, not as a run timeout. Startup and lease-driven periodic orphan recovery share one Gateway stream-terminalization path: after `RunManager` durably marks a run `error` with `stop_reason=orphan_recovered`, Gateway publishes `END_SENTINEL` and schedules stream cleanup. The periodic store scan, per-row status writes, and Gateway callback run as one supervised single-flight task, so a slow pass is skipped at the next interval instead of piling up or pausing the sole lease-renewal loop. Store retries have bounded attempts/backoff; an individual operation still relies on the database driver/pool timeout. `RunManager.shutdown()` gives active user runs priority within its shared deadline, then drains or cancels orphan recovery. Gateway tracks delayed recovered-stream cleanups and converts unfinished delays to immediate deletes before closing the bridge; the Redis TTL remains the outage safety net. Only startup recovery, before the runtime yields to requests, projects the latest affected thread to `error`; periodic recovery deliberately avoids that non-atomic projection because `ThreadMetaStore` has no `latest_run_id` conditional-update contract. Store-only SSE and `/wait` consumers wait for the bridge's real END marker after an ordinary durable terminal status, because status persistence can precede tail events. The explicit `orphan_recovered` signal is the only heartbeat fallback: its publisher is known to be gone, so it supplies the liveness boundary if END publication fails or the retained key expires. Malformed `Last-Event-ID` reconnect values live-tail new Redis events rather than replaying the retained buffer. Keep cross-component recovery orchestration in Gateway through the generic `RunManager.on_orphans_recovered` callback; do not introduce a harness-to-app dependency. Callback failure warnings include every recovered `run_id` so operators can identify rows whose Gateway-side terminalization needs inspection.
 - Thread-scoped run creation accepts an optional `Idempotency-Key` header on create, stream, and wait. Gateway hashes the caller key with the authenticated owner and `thread_id` before passing it to `RunManager`, whose persistence index is process-wide; never pass an unscoped external key to that index. The same scoped key is shared across `/runs`, `/runs/stream`, and `/runs/wait`; a reused admission whose stored `input` or `assistant_id` differs from the retry returns 409. `/wait` must not treat `task is None` as completion: `store_only` records without a cross-process bridge return durable `status`/`error` instead of serializing the current checkpoint; otherwise wait on the bridge. An idempotent reuse must not serialize the latest thread checkpoint as this run's result — a later run on the same thread may have advanced the head — so reused `/wait` returns durable `status`/`error`. Capture that reuse decision before awaiting completion; `idempotency_reused` is sticky on the shared cached record and an overlapping retry must not suppress the original creating request's checkpoint. After observing completion, refresh store-backed `status`/`error` before returning them — a hydrated peer record still holds admission-time fields. A creating-endpoint retry of a terminal record whose stream is gone emits SSE `gap`/`stream_replay_gap` with `recovery: reload_durable_state` rather than a bare `end`; observer joins of that same record still emit `end`. That gap is opt-in via `sse_consumer(..., emit_gap_on_missing_stream=True)` from thread-scoped `/runs/stream` on this request's reuse — do not key it off `apply_on_disconnect` or the sticky `idempotency_reused` flag. Default `sse_consumer` callers, including stateless `/api/runs/stream`, still emit `end`. A reused still-running `store_only` record on a process-local bridge returns 409 from `/stream` with no `Retry-After`, matching `join`. Missing headers preserve ordinary non-idempotent admission. Stateless `/api/runs/*` stays outside this contract because a request without an explicit thread creates a fresh temporary thread before admission.
 - Thread-scoped run creation accepts `checkpoint` / `checkpoint_id`; Gateway validates the checkpoint belongs to the request thread before writing `checkpoint_id` / `checkpoint_ns` into `config.configurable` for LangGraph branching. In `delta` checkpoint mode the worker rewrites that fork into a linear head write before the graph starts (see "A delta-mode run cannot fork" under Checkpoint Channel Modes), because delta state for a fork replays the abandoned sibling's writes.
-- Thread-scoped Gateway runs evaluate an active `ThreadState.goal` after the visible turn completes. `runtime/goal.py` asks a non-thinking evaluator model to judge only visible conversation evidence and return a typed blocker; the evaluator model is created once per run and reused across hidden continuation checks. The evaluator runs after the graph root's tracing scope has already closed, so `create_goal_evaluator_model`/`evaluate_goal_completion` attach their own model-level tracing callbacks (`attach_tracing=True`) and inject Langfuse trace metadata (`thread_id`/`user_id`/`deerflow_trace_id`) directly onto the `ainvoke` call — the same standalone-caller pattern as `oneshot_llm.run_oneshot_llm` and `MemoryUpdater` (see Tracing System below). Satisfied goals are cleared; every non-satisfied evaluation — continuable or stand-down — is persisted with `last_evaluation` (the blocker, reason, and evidence summary; outcomes that stop the loop additionally record a `stand_down_reason` for observability), but only `goal_not_met_yet` evaluations are streamed as hidden `HumanMessage` continuations, and only when the turn did not end on an unanswered Human Input Card (`ask_clarification` or the sandbox network prompt; the evaluator never sees those ToolMessages, so the goal stands down with `blocker: "needs_user_input"` without calling it), a durable assistant end-of-turn checkpoint exists, the run has not been aborted, the run has not hit its token-budget hard stop (`stop_reason == "token_capped"`; the goal stands down with `stand_down_reason: "token_capped"`), the thread did not change during evaluation, and the no-progress breaker has not fired. The continuation cap is 8 — a hard maximum in the `0`–`8` range; callers requesting more are clamped (`set_goal`/TUI) or rejected with 422 (`PUT /goal`). The no-progress breaker keys on the latest visible assistant evidence (not the evaluator's free-text reason, which an LLM rewords every turn), so two consecutive continuations that add no new visible assistant output stop the loop after 2 attempts. Model-response cleanup helpers such as think-block stripping and code-fence stripping live in `deerflow.utils.llm_text` so `runtime/goal.py` and Gateway suggestion parsing share the same JSON-prep behavior.

 - Run event stream changes must keep producer code, `deerflow/constants.py`, `runtime/events/catalog.py`, `contracts/run_event_stream_contract.json`, `backend/docs/RUN_EVENT_STREAM.md`, and `tests/test_run_event_stream_contract.py` in sync. The dependency-free constants module owns the persisted envelope limits (`event_type` 32 characters, `category` 16) and cross-layer workspace event identity; the catalog owns validated runtime definitions and categories. Dynamic middleware tags are limited to 21 characters after the `middleware:` prefix. The JSON contract owns payload schemas, backend-specific storage semantics, legacy aliases, and compatibility rules; conformance tests require both views and all producer groups to agree. `run.end.content` remains opaque and may retain nested Python values in memory while JSONL/database stores stringify non-JSON nested values, so consumers must not assume backend-identical nested output representations.
