Headroom Daily: Proxy Trust Fixes and New CLI integrations
Merged work tightens what the proxy forwards, caches, and compresses across long agent sessions, plus adds IBM Bob and Antigravity CLI support. The pattern is correctness under real Claude Code traffic: less cross-talk, fewer cache rewrites, and fewer fail-open stalls.

Good morning, it's October 4th, 2026.
The lead today is trust in proxied context — fixes that stop the proxy from expanding, dropping, or replaying the wrong history.
First theme is conversation isolation and cache stability. In PR 3924, agent teams in token mode saw a teammate inherit the lead's tool output — in the repro, a 127-character check-in went to the model as 27,000 characters — because proactive expansion matched on shared workspace alone. It now only expands…
Second theme is fail-open more, cache errors less. PR 3932 changes compression quarantine to engage only once half the worker pool is stuck, so one straggler no longer forwards everything uncompressed for up to a minute. PR 3941 memoizes image text extraction and image signals by image content, cutting repeated OCR…
Finally, broader harness coverage. PR 3801 adds wrap support for the IBM Bob CLI with dedicated routing for its inference, admin, and docs paths, and PR 3939 adds the Antigravity CLI as a learn analysis backend, never auto-detected and requiring an explicit safety opt-in because it has no zero-tool mode.
What's next: watch the open Unix socket proposals in PR 3960 and 3959, and the streaming safeguard fix…
