* fix: bound MCP server bring-up timeouts and exclude externalized tool outputs from delivery verification
Two related robustness fixes:
1. MCP server bring-up was unbounded. tool_call_timeout only covered
session.call_tool(); tool discovery (subprocess spawn + initialize +
tools/list) and persistent stdio session initialization could hang
forever, blocking agent construction (and on the Gateway event loop,
the whole process). Add a per-server session_init_timeout
(default DEFAULT_MCP_SESSION_INIT_TIMEOUT = 60s, null disables) that
bounds both discovery and pooled-session initialization. The session
pool's existing cancellation handling tears down a session stuck
mid-creation in its own task.
2. ToolOutputBudgetMiddleware externalizes oversized tool outputs into
outputs/.tool-results/ (configurable tool_output.storage_subdir). The
workspace-change scanner and run delivery verification counted those
files as produced artifacts, so any run that externalized a tool output
without also presenting a real artifact failed with
"Artifact delivery incomplete". Exclude TOOL_RESULTS_DIRNAME via a
shared constant (mirroring BROWSER_FRAMES_DIRNAME) and thread the
configured storage_subdir through snapshot capture so both
workspace-changes events and delivery verification stay clean.
* review: enforce single-segment tool_output.storage_subdir; document discovery-timeout cleanup
Address review feedback:
1. A custom tool_output.storage_subdir with a path separator (e.g.
cache/tool-results) silently no-oped the workspace-scanner exclusion:
os.walk yields one-segment dirnames, so a nested value never matched and
its files were counted as produced artifacts again. ToolOutputConfig now
validates storage_subdir as a single directory name (rejects separators,
.., absolute, empty) with tests, so the exclusion is always sound.
2. The discovery-timeout path now documents why cancellation is safe, mirroring
the session-init note: discovery runs inside the adapter's nested async
context managers, and stdio_client's finally terminates the process tree
(SIGTERM->SIGKILL on POSIX, process-tree on Windows), so a timed-out npx
subprocess and its children are reaped rather than accumulating.
* review: log session-init timeouts and align API response model default with runtime config
Address second-round review feedback:
1. A session-init timeout raised TimeoutError without any log, unlike the
discovery timeout which logs a WARNING. Wrap the bounded get_session in a
try/except that logs the timeout (server name + seconds) and re-raises, so
operators can diagnose tool-call failures caused by hung MCP sessions.
2. McpServerConfigResponse.session_init_timeout defaulted to None while
McpServerConfig defaults to 60s: a server created via PUT /api/mcp/config
without the field was persisted with null (no timeout) while the same
server created in the config file got 60s. Align the response-model default
to DEFAULT_MCP_SESSION_INIT_TIMEOUT so API-created and file-created servers
behave the same; an explicit null still opts out.
* review: narrow the discovery-timeout handler to the bounded wait_for path
The except TimeoutError clause covered both the bounded wait_for branch and
the bare discovery branch. With session_init_timeout opted out (None), a
TimeoutError raised by discovery itself would hit the %.1f format with None:
logging raises TypeError internally, the WARNING is silently dropped, and a
--- Logging error --- traceback goes to stderr.
Narrow the handler to wrap only the wait_for call, where the branch condition
guarantees the timeout value is not None. A discovery-internal TimeoutError on
the opted-out path now falls through to the generic failure handler and is
reported as 'tool discovery failed' with exc_info. Covered by a regression
test that asserts the skip is reported without any broken format.
* feat(channels): add Buzz (Nostr) channel connector
Adds a Buzz (https://github.com/block/buzz) channel so DeerFlow can join a
Nostr-relay workspace as a member: it answers @mentions in channels, replies
to DMs, and streams answers by editing one message in place.
* app/channels/buzz_nostr.py — pure NIP-01 helpers: canonical event ids,
BIP-340 signing/verification, chat/edit/auth builders, relay frames.
* app/channels/buzz.py — BuzzChannel: one NIP-42-authenticated websocket,
channel discovery (kind 39000) with one subscription per channel, live
membership tracking (44100/44101), per-channel replay watermarks, and
replies posted once then edited in place (kind 40003).
* app/channels/buzz_run_policy.py — same-thread serialization, mirroring
the Feishu precedent.
Inbound is gated in order: signature verification, self-drop, /connect
bind-and-return, pubkey allowlist, then mention / DM / mention-free /
thread-follow. Off by default; needs the new optional `buzz` extra
(coincurve, lazily imported), which detect_uv_extras resolves from
channels.buzz.enabled the same way it already handles channels.discord.
Two relay behaviours drove the design and are worth knowing when reviewing:
a global {"kinds":[9]} subscription receives nothing from buzz-relay and a
multi-value "#h" filter receives nothing either, so one REQ per channel is
required; and a single global `since` cursor skips quiet channels, so
watermarks are per channel.

* fix(channels): only publish assistant messages from the IM stream
`_accumulate_stream_text` decided what streamed `messages-tuple` payloads
become displayable text by rejecting ONLY payloads whose `type` contained
"tool", so it published everything else. DeerFlow writes hidden model
context into the messages channel as ordinary messages -- memory recall and
the rewritten user turn as hidden HumanMessages (DynamicContextMiddleware),
the `<durable_context_data>` block as another (DurableContextMiddleware) --
and LangGraph fans those state writes out on the messages stream, so they
reached every streaming IM channel as the assistant's reply.
Proved live on a Buzz relay: the connector published a `<memory>` fact block
and, in another run, a verbatim echo of the user's own inbound message.
Affects Feishu, Telegram, WeCom and Buzz; worst on Buzz, where each update
is an immutable public Nostr event that a corrective edit cannot unpublish.
Invert the filter to an allowlist of assistant message types. Two new pure
helpers keep it testable:
- `_stream_payload_type` resolves the type from both shapes the function
already handles: the `model_dump()` shape the gateway emits, and
LangChain's `to_json()` constructor shape whose own `type` is the literal
"constructor" and whose class name is the tail of the `id` path.
- `_is_assistant_stream_type` matches "ai"/"assistant" by PREFIX, not
substring -- ordinary words contain "ai" ("chain", "domain"), and a
substring test would admit a foreign type name by accident.
The bare-`str` branch is removed: an untyped payload cannot be attributed to
the assistant, nothing in DeerFlow produces one (serialize_messages_tuple
always emits `[message_dict, metadata]`), and a runtime that emitted raw text
deltas would emit hidden context the same way. Per-message-id buffering and
merging are unchanged.
Tests pin both directions, including multi-chunk merging across one message
id, so the allowlist cannot silently kill streaming, plus an end-to-end
`_handle_streaming_chat` test asserting the live payload never reaches an
outbound message.

* chore(helm): bump config_version to 33 in chart values and README
config.example.yaml moved to 33 for the buzz channel block; the chart's
embedded config example and its README copy track it (config_version only
drives the outdated-config warning, per scripts/check_config_version.sh).

RunCreateRequest declared stream_resumable as None-only, but langgraph_sdk
defaults it to False (not None) and its payload filter only drops None, so
every SDK request carried "stream_resumable": false and was rejected with 422.
False means "no resumable stream", which is what DeerFlow already serves.
This broke every IM channel run (runs.stream and runs.create both send the
field; only runs.wait omits it) and any external langgraph_sdk client. The web
frontend was unaffected because its compatibility wrapper does not send it.
An explicit true still returns 422. The new regression test drives a real SDK
client to capture its default payload and posts that to the HTTP boundary, so a
future non-None SDK default cannot regress this silently.
Fixes#4466
* fix(summarization): own the run model for compaction; bound failure
With summarization.model_name: null the summary model resolved to
config.models[0] while the executing model is selected per run; when they
differ and models[0]'s provider is broken (expired key, quota, outage)
compaction silently failed every triggered turn and context grew unbounded
until the main provider 400s the run (#3103's shape), even though the run's
own model was healthy.
Model ownership is now sourced from the builders, not re-derived at runtime:
- The lead, subagent, and manual /compact builders each pass the resolved run
model into create_summarization_middleware(run_model_name=...). The middleware
no longer reads runtime.context / get_config(), which do not carry a custom
agent's or a subagent's resolved model, so a custom-agent lead run and a
distinct-model subagent now summarize with their own model, not models[0] /
the parent's. Runtime re-resolution and the per-name model cache are removed.
- model_name: null summarizes with the run's own model; an explicitly configured
summary model generates and falls back to the run model on failure. The
fallback is built lazily after the primary fails and its construction is
guarded, so a broken fallback cannot skip a healthy primary or escape the
automatic failure boundary.
Failure is bounded and side-effect-safe:
- An empty or whitespace-only response is treated as a generation failure, not a
valid summary, so compaction never removes all history for an empty replacement.
- compact_state/acompact_state take raise_on_failure independent of force: the
manual /compact path always surfaces a generation failure (even force=false)
and routes it to the existing ContextCompactionFailed path (HTTP 500 ->
frontend error toast) instead of an unconsumed response reason. The automatic
path leaves compaction state unchanged.
- before_summarization hooks fire only after a replacement summary exists.
SummarizationConfig.model_name, config.example.yaml, and docs/summarization.md
document the final lead/subagent/manual ownership rules.
Part of RFC #4346 (section A). Evaluating fraction/triggers against the run
model's profile (profile ownership) is a separate follow-up.
* fix(summarization): manual /compact model ownership + fail-open construct/parse
Manual /compact carried only agent_name, so it derived the run model from the
custom-agent model or config.models[0] and missed the request-selected model the
run path uses (request -> custom-agent -> default). Carry model_name through
ThreadCompactRequest and the frontend compact call, resolve with the same
precedence, and move the custom-agent config read off the event loop (asyncio
.to_thread) with user_id so the strict blocking-IO gate is not bypassed by the
broad except.
Make one summary attempt own its full lifecycle so the fail-open boundary covers
construction and response parsing, not just invocation: build each candidate model
lazily and guarded (a raising constructor falls through to the healthy run model
instead of breaking agent construction), build the model_name:null primary from the
run model rather than config.models[0], and run response text extraction inside the
invocation try so a failing .text accessor falls back instead of escaping compaction.
Adds factory-level constructor-failure, response-extraction-failure (sync/async), and
route-path model-ownership tests.
Queue comments received while a run is active, then submit one deduplicated follow-up after it finishes. Failed drains are requeued and watcher tasks stop cleanly with the channel manager.
* feat(agents): database-backed storage for custom agent definitions
Add an agent_storage.backend switch (default file, behaviour-unchanged) with a
db backend that stores each custom agent as a row in the shared SQL persistence
layer, so a multi-instance deployment sees the same agents on every node
(#4331, #4357). Introduces an AgentStore interface routing all read/write
surfaces, an agents table + migration 0006, startup validation, and a file->db
importer. Follows the thread_meta store / run_events backend-switch /
0003_scheduled_tasks migration patterns; no new dependency.
* fix(agents): make db storage path production-ready (review round 1)
Addresses review feedback on the db/sync agent-storage path:
- sql.py: mirror the async engine's per-connection SQLite PRAGMAs on the sync
engine (busy_timeout=30000, synchronous=NORMAL, foreign_keys=ON, WAL) so both
engines behave identically against the shared DB; guard the engine cache with
a lock (double-checked) so concurrent first-touch cannot build duplicate
engines or register the connect listener twice.
- routers/agents.py + routers/assistants_compat.py: offload the sync-store reads
that ran on the event loop (list/get/check, update's pre-read + legacy guard +
refresh, and assistants_compat's four list routes) via asyncio.to_thread — on
db+postgres each was a network round trip stalling the loop. Writes were
already offloaded.
- file.py: translate the create() mkdir(exist_ok=False) race FileExistsError
into AgentExistsError (router 409, matching SqlAgentStore's IntegrityError
path); correct the _write docstring — per-file atomic replace, two commits
sequential not transactional.
Tests: sync-engine PRAGMA + engine-cache reuse assertions; file create-race ->
AgentExistsError; strict Blockbuster anchor over the read endpoints so a
regression back onto the loop fails CI.
* fix(agents): address round-2 review on the db store path
- update_agent tool: align the docstring/inline comment with FileAgentStore._write.
Cross-field write atomicity is db-only; the file backend commits config then
soul via two sequential os.replace (a crash between them can leave a fresh
config.yaml beside a stale SOUL.md). The dropped partial-write *reporting* is
an intentional tradeoff — the stage-then-replace safety is preserved
(test_update_agent_soul_failure_does_not_replace_config still holds).
- SqlAgentStore.update(): true upsert. Catch IntegrityError on the
insert-on-missing branch, re-fetch and apply, so two concurrent first-time
writes (e.g. two setup_agent handshakes) converge instead of surfacing a raw
UNIQUE(user_id, name) violation as a 500. Symmetric with create().
- get_agent_store(): document the graph-subprocess config-resolution invariant
(the except->file fallback is a genuine no-config path, not a mask for a
misconfigured graph process) and pin it with two tests driving the real
get_app_config() file resolution: db resolves from an on-disk config.yaml,
file fallback when config is unresolvable.
* test(agents): cover SqlAgentStore.update() write-race upsert recovery
Mandatory-TDD test for the round-2 fix in 0680340a: two concurrent first-time
update()s where the loser's insert hits UNIQUE(user_id, name). Deterministically
forces the IntegrityError recovery path by making the first _row probe miss the
committed winner, and asserts last-writer-wins instead of a surfaced 500.
* feat(browser): add agentic browser control
* fix(frontend): format browser view changes
* fix(browser): keep browser optional and isolate sidecar layout
* fix(browser): address PR review security and IME findings
- Nginx: add a browser-stream WebSocket location before the generic
/api/threads regex so Live upgrades instead of downgrading to HTTP
(both nginx.conf and nginx.local.conf).
- Ownership: require an existing owned thread for the WS stream and REST
navigate, and tear down the browser session on thread deletion so a
later caller cannot reuse a retained page/cookies by guessing the id.
- SSRF: enforce the URL policy at the browser request boundary via a
context-level route guard covering redirects, popups, iframes, and
subresources (skipped for CDP-attached Chrome).
- IME: skip key forwarding while a composition is active so confirming a
CJK candidate with Enter no longer submits the remote page form.
Adds regression tests for the request guard, session teardown on delete,
and the composing-Enter key decision.
* fix(frontend): smooth streaming in long tool threads
* Revert "fix(frontend): smooth streaming in long tool threads"
This reverts commit f0462516eabe77f138d4027ea1c714fb226683cf.
* fix(browser): address review security and lifecycle findings
- Reject cross-origin WebSocket upgrades on the live browser stream
(Origin allow-list reuse of CORS/same-origin helpers) to close a
WS-CSRF hole, and fail closed when the ownership store is absent.
- Warn when a CDP-attached session runs with the SSRF request guard
off, and drop the unreachable CDP screencast teardown dead code.
- Read browser session launch config from a single canonical source
(browser_navigate) so it is deterministic regardless of call order.
- Bound per-thread Chromium accumulation with idle-timeout eviction
and an LRU max-sessions cap.
- Reset the Live reconnect counter on a successful open so the stream
can't permanently stall after the cumulative attempt cap.
* fix(frontend): reduce long tool thread render stalls
Reuse stable historical message groups during streaming, defer heavy Markdown and browser previews, and lazy-decode message images.
* fix(browser): keep live control responsive during continuous input
Why: Manual browser control felt laggy — a physical click ran the remote
Playwright click three times and each non-move input synchronously awaited a
JPEG screenshot, so events queued behind capture (queue wait up to ~237ms).
The first async attempt used a trailing-edge debounce, which froze the visible
page until a wheel/keyboard gesture stopped ("scroll finishes, then it jumps").
What:
- Frontend forwards one `click` per physical click instead of also emitting
`down`/`up`, so the remote page is not clicked twice per gesture.
- Backend detaches live-frame capture from input dispatch: non-move actions
start a rate-limited background refresh loop (leading frame + bounded cadence)
that keeps emitting frames while input continues and never blocks dispatch.
- Add regression tests: input dispatch no longer awaits the screenshot, rapid
inputs coalesce, and continuous input keeps refreshing before it stops.
Scenarios: Verified in the live Browser panel — a single click completes in
~57ms (was blocked behind a 171ms capture), and a 1.14s sustained wheel gesture
renders ~7 frames throughout the scroll instead of one frame after it ends.
