The clearest thread running through today's activity is session identity — making sure the right agent, the right transcript, and the right container stay bound together, especially across restarts and resets. The second thread is test infrastructure: replacing timing guesses with real synchronization.
On session identity, PR 3935 fixes a real correctness bug where clearing a session only wiped memory, but reloading a different session pulled in a shared transcript containing both conversations. The fix persists each session by its native ID and makes creation best-effort, so a read-only artifact directory no…
On the testing side, PR 3807 is the big one — a sweeping rework replacing wall-clock waits with causal synchronization across Rust, TUI, and web tests. It touches shutdown timing, debounce paths, pane exit detection, and fixture isolation, closing out over a hundred flaky-test findings. In the same spirit, PR 3951…
