feat(extensions): let an out-of-tree extension observe what the agent did (#4863)
* feat(extensions): let an out-of-tree extension observe what the agent did
DeerFlow's extension system can contribute middleware, services and routes,
but an extension cannot answer basic questions about a run without reaching
into host internals. Several of the facts it would need are destroyed by the
operations that produce them:
* The middleware chain injects and rewrites a lot of context — date
reminders, recalled memory, compaction summaries, durable-context data,
image payloads, activated skill bodies. Downstream, none of it is
attributable: at the model-call boundary an injected HumanMessage is
indistinguishable from the user's own, and anything wanting to tell them
apart has to pattern-match prompt wording, which breaks on the next copy
edit.
* Two runs of "the same agent" are only comparable if the chain enforced the
same limits, prompts and thresholds. Recovering that from outside means
reading private attributes and guessing which of them change behaviour — a
guess that rots silently as middlewares gain fields.
* The lead-agent factory resolves a model after runtime overrides, renders a
prompt, filters tools through authorization and composes a stack, all
inside one synchronous call, and none of it survives: a middleware sees its
neighbours but not the prompt, the run worker sees a graph but not what
went into it.
* Summarization is destructive by design. N messages leave the context and
one summary enters it; afterwards only the summary exists, so "which
messages became this?" is not reconstructible.
This adds seven neutral facilities so those facts are recorded where they are
still true, and releases the contract package as 0.2.0.
Message provenance
Producers stamp `deerflow_content_kind` / `deerflow_producer_kind` onto the
messages they inject or rewrite. Stamping is unconditional — a fact whose
presence depends on whether an observer is installed is not a fact — and the
keys are server-owned, so provenance cannot be forged from a request.
Middleware self-description
Twelve middlewares declare their own behaviour-affecting parameters through
a duck-typed `release_policy_parameters()`. Long text is hashed rather than
embedded: a declaration is an identity, not a copy of the prompt.
Agent assembly descriptor
`assemble_lead_agent()` returns the graph plus a descriptor whose fingerprint
answers "did anything about this agent change between these two runs?".
`make_lead_agent()` keeps its graph-only signature — it is the LangGraph
Server ABI declared in langgraph.json. Tools and skills are sorted before
hashing because their assembly order is incidental; middlewares are not,
because stack order decides what wraps what. Host build identity is reported
but excluded from the fingerprint, so a redeploy does not invalidate every
agent's identity.
Context compaction observation
Summarization emits the content hashes of the messages it is about to remove
joined to the summary that replaced them. Content is the only identity
available at that seam: the summary does not become a message, and what later
projects it into a request renders it bounded and escaped rather than
verbatim.
Neutral policy, transform and MCP-source facts
Guardrail decisions are published to runtime context under a `__`-prefixed
key; result-rewriting middlewares append a declared, ordered transform trail;
MCP tools carry their credential-free logical origin.
Extension route identity
Contributed routes are session-authenticated and cannot opt out, but
"logged in" and "administrator" are different questions. Extensions get a
neutral projection of the caller rather than the host's auth context, and
`require_admin` fails closed when identity cannot be determined.
Extension-owned tables
An extension that persists data owns its own MetaData and migration chain, so
its tables are absent from Base.metadata and `alembic revision --autogenerate`
proposes dropping them. Extensions declare a table prefix, which is rejected
at registration if it would shadow a host table.
The contract package stays dependency-free and imports no host code; every new
Protocol method has a default so later additions remain additive. The loader's
pre-1.0 rule requires an exact major.minor match, so extensions written against
0.1 are now refused at startup with an actionable install hint rather than
loading into a host that implements a different surface.
uv.lock records the contract package's new version, so `uv sync --locked` still
resolves on a fresh checkout.

feat(extensions): observe task lifecycle and system model calls (#4684)
* feat(extensions): observe task lifecycle and system model calls PR 1 (#4636) gave extensions a middleware chain, and a middleware only sees what passes through the agent graph. Two runtime surfaces stay invisible to it: when a lead run or a subagent begins and ends, and the DeerFlow-owned model calls made outside the graph. This slice adds both, with no new Gateway surface -- routers, services, and the reference extension stay in PR 3. Contract (deerflow-extension-api 0.1.1) --------------------------------------- Two contribution kinds join `middlewares` on the registry: `task_lifecycle` (`on_task_start` / `on_task_stop`, receiving a `TaskInfo` and a conservative `TaskOutcome` of completed / aborted / failed) and `system_model_observer` (`on_system_model_call`, receiving a `SystemOperationKind`, a `SystemModelRequest` snapshot, and a `SystemModelResult` carrying either the response or the provider exception plus a duration). `SystemModelRequest.messages` normalizes to a tuple at construction. Goal evaluation and memory extraction pass a message list while title generation and summarization pass one prompt string, and a bare `str` already satisfies `Sequence` -- without normalization an observer iterating `request.messages` would silently walk characters. Copying also makes the frozen snapshot immutable in fact rather than only by declaration, since observations may run after the call site returns and keeps mutating its own list. Registry marks and rollbacks become per-bucket and positional, so an `install()` that fails after registering two different kinds cannot leave one of them behind. `needs_task_store` now covers all three kinds: a deployment that registers only lifecycle hooks still gets a task store. Task lifecycle -------------- The lead worker notifies start after the run has started and stop after completion persistence and the completion hook, but before clearing the finalizing barrier and publishing the stream end -- holding the barrier across stop is what keeps a same-thread replacement run from overlapping this task's lifecycle. Cancellation raised out of the stop notification is deferred, not propagated in place, so a cancelled run still clears the barrier and emits its end frame. A subagent with a parent `run_id` wraps its execution in the same pair inside `finally`, reporting `parent_task_id` so a delegation tree is reconstructable; a subagent without a `run_id` (embedded client, standalone LangGraph Server) logs and skips rather than inventing a parent. Contributors run in registration order inside one shared 3s budget and every failure is logged and failed open. System model calls ------------------ Four kinds cover the model calls the middleware chain cannot see: goal evaluation, memory extraction, title generation, and summarization. Each site reports both terminal paths without changing the provider exception the host observes, short-circuits on `has_system_model_observers`, and passes the live task store when the runtime has one (detached work gets an isolated store). The sync summarization half stays unobserved on purpose -- it and its only host caller are the sync side of an async-only runtime, so notifying there would block a thread on a call site the host never reaches; the reason is recorded at the call site. The DeerMem backend must stay vendorable and cannot import the extension API, so it reports through a new `MemoryCallbacks.on_memory_llm_result` host hook that the DeerFlow-side callbacks translate into an observation. Notification loop ----------------- Extension resources must be touched on the loop that created them, but subagents can execute on isolated loops and DeerMem runs on a worker thread. The Gateway registers its serving loop before any runtime dependency starts and resets it last through the exit stack, so every startup-failure and cancellation path is covered. Awaited hooks raised on another loop are dispatched across with `run_coroutine_threadsafe` and awaited under the same budget; synchronous sites submit fire-and-forget work. Shutdown stops accepting detached observations before the memory flush -- that flush runs on a worker thread and can emit memory observations -- while keeping the loop alive for awaited task hooks until run and subagent drain completes. Tests ----- `test_extension_task_lifecycle.py`, `test_extension_subagent_lifecycle.py`, and `test_extension_system_model_calls.py` cover ordering, fail-open, budget exhaustion, snapshot binding under a concurrent singleton replacement, the loop-dispatch and shutdown-suspension paths, and both terminal paths at every call site. `test_gateway_run_drain_shutdown.py` pins the stop-before-barrier and drain ordering. * fix(extensions): decide notification fail-open by origin, observe cancellation `_notify_each` only guarded `Exception`, so a contributor letting a `CancelledError` escape — an extension implementing an internal timeout with cancellation, say — skipped its successors and reached the worker's deferred-interrupt path, ending an otherwise successful run as cancelled. Fail-open is about where a failure came from, not its base class: only a genuine cancellation of the host task increments `Task.cancelling()`, so propagate on that and contain everything else. `KeyboardInterrupt` / `SystemExit` still propagate. `observe_system_model_call` skipped observers on cancellation for the same base-class reason, leaving goal / title / summarization silent on a terminal path that is routine — interrupt/rollback admission and shutdown both cancel the run task, with the provider tokens already spent. Awaiting observers there is unreliable (a repeated cancel interrupts that await before any of them runs), so report through the same non-blocking submission the synchronous memory bridge uses, then propagate the cancellation untouched. DeerMem keeps `BaseException` around its provider call, now with the reason recorded: that path runs on a worker thread, where cancelling the awaiting side never interrupts the running thread, so `CancelledError` cannot arrive at all. Its host-hook wrapper narrows to `Exception` — only the hook's own failures are non-fatal, and an observability path must not swallow a process teardown signal. * fix(extensions): warn on budget exhaustion, scope observer logs by task, propagate teardown Review response on #4684: - The memory observation bridge caught BaseException, which would swallow a teardown signal raised while dispatching; it now catches Exception, matching the boundary the DeerMem-side call site documents and tests. - A notification-budget timeout raised mid-hook fell into the generic hook-failure path and logged an asyncio-internal traceback; it now logs a warning like the pre-hook budget skip, while a TimeoutError a contributor raises on its own stays classified as a hook failure. - System model observer logs passed the operation kind as the task id, so log lines said "task goal/title/..."; they now carry the task scope id alongside the kind. |
