Two follow-ups deferred from #3909, both flagged during review and tracked in that PR's AUQHn / AUQGc Copilot threads.

#1 — Live-phase panel-ownership filter

SubagentExecutionRenderer started rendering SubagentScrollbackSummary "whenever the subagent reaches a terminal status" after the verbose inline frame was retired. Since isPending was also removed from ToolMessageProps in the same PR, panel-owned subagent rows (running / background) leaked through ToolGroupMessage into the live area, duplicating the row LiveAgentPanel already paints below the composer.

The fix is a per-tool ownership filter, not a render-time gate on the summary itself. ToolGroupMessage.tsx derives inlineToolCalls once before any compact decision: in the live phase (isPending=true) it drops panel-owned subagent entries (running / background task_execution without pending approval); in the committed phase the filter is a no-op. Pending-approval subagents pass through (the inline banner / queued marker is the only surface that lets users answer the prompt). Terminal subagents (completed / failed / cancelled) also pass through — unregisterForeground's post-delete emit (#2 below) drops them from the panel snapshot the moment they finish, and the inline SubagentScrollbackSummary is the only surface that bridges the gap between snapshot-drop and parent-turn commit.

The filter is applied ONCE so every downstream decision (compact summary count + active-tool selection, sizing math, render map) sees the same list. Without that consolidation, mixed live groups (running subagent + sibling tool) leaked the panel-owned subagent into CompactToolGroupDisplay and reintroduced the duplicate UI the hand-off was designed to prevent.

isPending?: boolean stays on ToolMessageProps / ToolGroupMessageProps. ToolGroupMessage reads it for the filter; it does NOT gate the force-expand path — the terminal-subagent force-expand fires in BOTH live and committed phases so the summary lands in compact mode regardless of which side of commit the run terminated on (mirrors SubagentExecutionRenderer's ungated terminal path and mergeCompactToolGroups.isForceExpandGroup's no-isPending-gate preprocessing rule). The flag is forwarded through to ToolMessage for parity, but is currently inert at that layer — SubagentExecutionRenderer doesn't gate on it.

Before: running subagent finishes mid-turn → both LiveAgentPanel (synthesized row) AND SubagentExecutionRenderer (✔ name: desc · stats) try to render in the live area; in compact mixed groups the subagent could even win CompactToolGroupDisplay's active-tool slot and override the header with task × N. In compact mode, terminal foreground subagents finishing mid-turn produced NOTHING inline until parent commit (the bridge promise from the design intent went unfulfilled).

After: running / background subagents are panel-only in the live phase; terminal subagents render their inline SubagentScrollbackSummary immediately in BOTH compact and non-compact modes, so the user keeps a record of the run from the moment it finishes; on commit the filter becomes a no-op and every terminal subagent's summary lands in scrollback as the persistent audit trail. Mixed compact groups now reflect only the inline-visible siblings.

#2 — Swap order in unregisterForeground (delete-then-emit)

useBackgroundTaskView's shared snapshot only refreshes on statusChange, and unregisterForeground previously fired BEFORE agents.delete(). The snapshot froze with the agent as "running" while registry.get() returned undefined. Concrete UX bug:

1. foreground subagent finishes
2. unregisterForeground fires statusChange (entry still in registry)
3. useBackgroundTaskView refresh → snapshot has the entry as running
4. agents.delete() → entry gone from registry
5. NO further statusChange → snapshot stays frozen
6. user opens BackgroundTasksDialog (↓) → list mode shows a "running" row
7. user presses x → registry.cancel(agentId) is a no-op (registry empty)

Result: dialog list shows a ghost row with cancel hints that don't work, while LiveAgentPanel already correctly synthesizes the row as a neutral terminal (because it has its own per-tick registry re-pull for activity refresh).

Fix at the source — swap the order so agents.delete() runs BEFORE emitStatusChange() (unique to unregisterForeground; complete / fail / cancel / finalize keep their existing emit-then-keep ordering since their entries stay in the registry as terminal). The status-change callback's getAll() now sees the post-delete state, snapshot consumers drop the row immediately, no per-consumer reconciliation needed.

Note: an earlier version of this PR took a different approach — emit twice, with an explicit context: { removed: boolean } flag distinguishing pre-delete from post-delete. The merge with main (#3921) brought in the simpler single-emit / swap-order fix; this branch adopted that and reverted the additional API surface. The BackgroundStatusChangeCallback signature is unchanged (still (entry?: BackgroundTaskEntry) => void).

This also makes LiveAgentPanel's synthesis path defense-in-depth — under normal operation the snapshot updates after the single post-delete emit, the agent leaves entries, and the panel renders no row. The synthesis still triggers in the rare case where a snapshot lands between the delete and the emit, but that's a sub-render race, not a sustained ghost.

Test plan

npm run typecheck --workspace=packages/cli
npm run typecheck --workspace=packages/core
npx vitest run --no-coverage \
  packages/core/src/agents/background-tasks.test.ts \
  packages/cli/src/ui/components/background-view \

  packages/cli/src/ui/utils/mergeCompactToolGroups.test.ts \
  packages/cli/src/ui/hooks/useBackgroundTaskView.test.ts

Manual:

  • Invoke a foreground subagent (Task tool). Confirm:
    • Panel shows the row while running (○).
    • When it finishes mid-turn: panel evicts the row (post-delete emit), inline SubagentScrollbackSummary lands immediately so the run stays visible.
    • On parent commit: that same summary stays as the persistent record.
  • Same flow but in compact mode with a sibling tool in the batch — compact header reflects the sibling alone (no task × N overriding the header). When the subagent finishes, the group force-expands inline so the summary lands without waiting for parent commit.
  • Open BackgroundTasksDialog (↓) right after a foreground subagent finishes. Confirm: no ghost "running" row; the agent is gone from the list.

Coverage delta:

  • live (isPending) terminal subagent → renders summary inline — locks the bridge between panel-snapshot drop and parent commit (ToolMessage.test.tsx).
  • compact mode: live mixed group filters panel-owned subagent out of count + active tool — locks the once-derived inlineToolCalls consolidation (ToolGroupMessage.test.tsx).
  • compact mode: live group with completed subagent force-expands so the summary bridges the panel-snapshot drop — locks the in-compact bridge for terminal subagents (ToolGroupMessage.test.tsx).
  • compact mode: live mixed group with terminal subagent + sibling force-expands and renders both — covers the bridge inside mixed groups (ToolGroupMessage.test.tsx).
  • unregisterForeground emits status change after removing the entry — confirms the swapped ordering and asserts registry.get() / getAll() both reflect the post-delete state inside the callback (background-tasks.test.ts; aligned with fix(core): foreground agent entry lingering in status bar after completion #3921).
  • 4 compact-mode cases on ToolGroupMessage.test.tsx — committed-completed expands; live-running stays compact (group hidden when pure-panel-owned); live-completed force-expands (bridges); committed-failed expands.

194 passing tests across core + cli (background-tasks + background-view + ToolMessage + ToolGroupMessage + mergeCompactToolGroups + useBackgroundTaskView).

…elete statusChange emit

Two follow-ups from PR QwenLM#3909 review.

1. **Re-introduce `isPending` gate on `SubagentExecutionRenderer`'s
   scrollback summary** (Copilot finding on PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AUQHn).
   The verbose inline frame retirement collapsed
   `SubagentExecutionRenderer` to "render the summary whenever a
   subagent reaches a terminal status" — but with `isPending`
   removed in QwenLM#3909, that fired in BOTH live (pendingHistoryItems)
   AND committed (Static) phases. Live-phase rendering duplicated
   the row LiveAgentPanel already paints below the composer until
   the parent turn committed.

   Add `isPending` back to `ToolMessageProps` purely as a gate for
   this one render path: the summary fires only when `!isPending`
   (committed). `ToolGroupMessage` forwards the flag (it kept the
   prop on its own interface for upstream compat the whole time).
   Test gap closed by the new `live (isPending) terminal subagent
   → no scrollback summary (panel owns the row)` case.

2. **Emit `statusChange` AFTER delete in `unregisterForeground`**
   (Copilot finding on PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AUQGc + the panel-only
   reconciliation it spawned). The shared snapshot in
   `useBackgroundTaskView` only refreshes on `statusChange`, and
   `unregisterForeground` previously fired exactly once — BEFORE
   delete — so the snapshot froze with the agent as "running"
   while `registry.get()` returned undefined. Result:
   `BackgroundTasksDialog` list mode showed a ghost "running" row
   with cancel hints whose `x` was a no-op, contradicting what the
   panel already showed (synthesized neutral terminal).

   Fire `statusChange` a second time AFTER `agents.delete()` so
   snapshot consumers see the registry-less state and stop
   surfacing the agent. The first emit still mirrors
   complete/fail/cancel/finalize ordering (callbacks that re-read
   `registry.get` see the entry); the second emit is the new
   contract for snapshot-based views. React batches the two
   resulting setState calls into one re-render so consumers
   re-render exactly once.

   Updated the existing "emits status change before removing the
   entry" test to capture both emits and explicitly assert that
   the second observes the registry-less state. Added a sibling
   test covering the post-delete `getAll()` count.

Coverage: 190 passing tests across core + cli (background-view +
ToolMessage + ToolGroupMessage + useBackgroundTaskView).

Pull request overview

Note

Copilot was unable to run its full agentic suite in this review.

Restores correct UI/registry synchronization for foreground subagent terminal states by (1) gating committed-phase subagent scrollback summaries so they don’t render in the live/pending area and (2) ensuring snapshot-based background-task views observe post-delete state via an additional statusChange emission.

Changes:

  • Emit statusChange both pre- and post-agents.delete() during unregisterForeground and update tests to lock in the ordering/contract.
  • Re-introduce and forward isPending?: boolean through tool message components, gating SubagentScrollbackSummary to committed (non-pending) renders.
  • Add/adjust CLI tests to cover the pending vs committed subagent summary behavior.

…e context flag

Five review findings on PR QwenLM#3919:

1. **Compact mode bypassed the scrollback summary** (gpt-5.5 via
   /qreview, ToolGroupMessage:324). `ToolGroupMessage` returns
   `CompactToolGroupDisplay` before the ToolMessage path when
   `compactMode === true`, so the new `isPending` gate on
   `SubagentExecutionRenderer` only protected the expanded path —
   committed terminal subagents in compact mode never reached
   `SubagentScrollbackSummary` and the LiveAgentPanel → committed-
   summary handoff broke for users who turned compact mode on.

   Force-expand the group when `!isPending` AND any tool call has a
   terminal `task_execution` resultDisplay. Stay compact while the
   parent turn is still live (`isPending`) — the panel below the
   composer owns that surface and an inline summary would
   duplicate it. Coverage: 4 new ToolGroupMessage cases (compact +
   completed-committed expands; compact + running-live stays compact;
   compact + completed-live stays compact; compact + failed-committed
   expands).

2. **Snapshot-coupled comment in `packages/core`** (Copilot,
   background-tasks.ts:292). The comment named CLI/UI consumers
   (`useBackgroundTaskView`, `BackgroundTasksDialog`) and asserted
   React batching guarantees from a core file. Reword to
   "snapshot-style consumers that re-pull `getAll()` from inside
   the callback" and drop the framework-specific batching claim.

3. **Two-phase emit needed an explicit signal** (Copilot,
   background-tasks.ts:283). Emitting `statusChange` twice without
   distinguishing the phases forced consumers to either do
   duplicate work or risk persisting a stale `entry` from the
   second callback. Add an optional second arg
   `context?: { removed?: boolean }` to
   `BackgroundStatusChangeCallback`; the post-delete emit passes
   `{ removed: true }` so consumers can disambiguate without
   re-querying the registry. Backwards compatible — existing
   callbacks ignore the new arg. Tests updated to assert both
   `mock.calls[0][1] === undefined` and
   `mock.calls[1][1] === { removed: true }`.

4. **`isPending` doc clarified** (Copilot, ToolMessage.tsx:507).
   Made the default semantics explicit: omitted/undefined is
   treated as committed (not pending); live-area renderers MUST
   pass `true` explicitly to suppress the scrollback summary.

5. (4 of the threads were duplicate Copilot fires of #2 + #3.)

Coverage: 219 test files / 3369 passing across cli/ui + core/agents.

The previous prop comment claimed `isPending` was "not consumed by the
group body" — true at the time, but the body now reads it for two real
purposes (compact-mode gating + forwarding to ToolMessage). Update
the doc so future callers / tests don't treat it as legacy.

… the row

User report: with compact mode OFF, a running subagent shows up
twice — once as the parent tool group's `task` row (status icon +
name + description), once as the LiveAgentPanel row beneath the
composer. Same agent, two surfaces, redundant.

Filter `task_execution` tool entries out of the expanded
`ToolGroupMessage` while `isPending=true` so the panel is the
single source of truth for in-flight subagents. The entry returns
once the parent turn commits (`isPending=false`), letting
`SubagentScrollbackSummary` land inside the parent's tool group
as a persistent audit trail.

Exception: subagents with a pending approval still render, because
the focus-routed banner / queued marker is the only inline surface
that lets users answer the prompt without opening the dialog.

If a group is purely panel-owned (e.g. a single Task call with no
sibling tools), the entire `ToolGroupMessage` returns `null` so
an empty bordered container doesn't float above the panel.

Coverage: +4 ToolGroupMessage cases — running entry hidden in
live phase / mixed group keeps siblings / pending-approval entry
still renders / committed entry comes back for the audit trail.

…back summary

Self-audit + independent review found 5 cleanup items on the live-phase
hide path; all addressed in one commit since none are behavioral
changes:

1. **Move `allEntriesPanelOwned` short-circuit BEFORE `showCompact`**
   so a pure-subagent group in compact mode is also hidden during the
   live phase (previously CompactToolGroupDisplay rendered a single
   summary line above the panel — a mild duplicate on top of what the
   non-compact path already fixed).
2. **Rename `isLiveSubagentTool` → `isSubagentToolEntry`.** The helper
   identifies a tool's resultDisplay shape; it doesn't check live-state.
   The previous name conflated "predicate" with "use case" and read as
   if it returned true only during the live phase.
3. **DRY up `hasCommittedTerminalSubagent`** to use `isSubagentToolEntry`
   instead of inlining its own type-narrowing.
4. **ANSI-escape `subagentName` / `taskDescription` / `terminateReason`**
   in `SubagentScrollbackSummary`. Same threat model as the panel rows
   and HistoryItemDisplay — these strings come from subagent config
   (user-authored) and LLM output and could carry terminal control
   sequences. The stats fields (tool count / duration / tokens) flow
   through trusted formatters and don't need escaping.
5. **Doc comments updated** to reflect the four real responsibilities
   of `isPending` on `ToolGroupMessageProps` (hide pure groups,
   force-expand committed compact, per-tool filter, forward to
   ToolMessage), to clarify that the keyboard-focused subagent id can
   point at a hidden tool harmlessly (the iterator returns `null`
   before the focus prop is computed), and to drop the redundant
   "EXCEPT" clause on the per-tool filter in favor of a single
   sentence.

Coverage unchanged: 251 passing tests across messages /
background-view / core/agents; broader 3374-test sweep clean; TS
clean on both cli and core packages.

Suggestions

All findings are cross-file impacts from this PR's changes — none map to specific lines in the diff.

1. LiveAgentPanel.tsx:238-252 — reconciliation path #2 now dead code for foreground subagents

The synthesis path ("snapshot says still-live but registry forgot" → synthesize terminal entry) relied on the old emit-before-delete ordering. After the unregisterForeground delete-before-emit swap, snapshots no longer contain the deleted entry, so this path never triggers for normal foreground agent lifecycles. The code is retained as defense-in-depth for rare snapshot races, but comments at line 238 ("BEFORE it deletes") and line 301-325 describe the old primary use case.

Suggested fix: Update the line 238 comment to "deletes BEFORE emitting" and add a note that path #2 is now a defensive fallback.

2. LiveAgentPanel.test.tsx:468-500 — test comment describes trigger that no longer occurs

The test's reasoning block states unregisterForeground calls emitStatusChange BEFORE deleting, which is no longer true. The test still passes (it bypasses the actual callback chain), but the documented trigger scenario is unreachable in normal flow.

Suggested fix: Update the test comment to note the synthesis path is now defense-only.

3. mergeCompactToolGroups.ts — isForceExpandGroup lacks terminal-subagent awareness

ToolGroupMessage.tsx's new hasCommittedTerminalSubagent forces expansion of committed terminal-subagent groups, but MainContent's isForceExpandGroup() (used for group merging) doesn't mirror this check. A group may be merged compactly by the preprocessor, then force-expanded at render time — the two systems disagree on the group's effective mode.

Suggested fix: Mirror the terminal-subagent check in isForceExpandGroup for consistency.

4. ToolMessage.test.tsx — missing ANSI escape sanitization test for SubagentScrollbackSummary

The PR adds escapeAnsiCtrlCodes wrapping for subagentName, taskDescription, and terminateReason in SubagentScrollbackSummary. LiveAgentPanel.test.tsx has equivalent sanitization tests, but this path is uncovered.

Suggested fix: Add a test with ANSI escape sequences in user-controlled strings, asserting they don't appear in output.


— deepseek-v4-pro via Qwen Code /review

Three real bugs flagged by gpt-5.5 via /qreview, plus 4 doc /
sanitization nits from Copilot. All 7 threads close together since
they share the same surfaces.

## Critical fixes

1. **Foreground subagents disappeared mid-parent-turn**
   (PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYvL9). Post-QwenLM#3921 swap-order, `unregisterForeground`
   drops the entry from the panel snapshot the moment the subagent
   finishes. The previous round's `!isPending` gate on
   `SubagentScrollbackSummary` then suppressed the inline summary
   too, leaving the user with nothing on screen for the run until
   the parent committed.

   - Drop the `!isPending` gate — `unregisterForeground` already
     removes the row from the panel, so the inline summary can fire
     in BOTH live and committed phases without duplicating it.
   - Tighten the `ToolGroupMessage` live-phase hide so it only
     filters `running` / `paused` / `background` task entries
     (`isPanelOwnedSubagentTool`), not terminal ones. Terminal
     entries pass through immediately so the summary lands.
   - The "panel-owned" predicate is now distinct from the broader
     "subagent tool entry" predicate (`isSubagentToolEntry`) and the
     "terminal subagent" predicate (`isTerminalSubagentTool`); each
     usage site picks the one it actually means.

2. **Compact mode dropped the scrollback summary**
   (PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYvLw). Force-expanding the group made the
   container go through the expanded path, but `ToolMessage`'s own
   compact-mode gate (`!compactMode || forceShowResult ? renderer
   : 'none'`) still suppressed the result block, so
   `SubagentScrollbackSummary` never rendered for compact-mode
   users. Pass `forceShowResult={true}` for terminal subagent tool
   entries so the result block is always rendered.

3. **`mergeCompactToolGroups.isForceExpandGroup` didn't know about
   terminal subagents** (PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYvMC). The committed-
   history preprocessor merged adjacent tool_groups before render,
   so a terminal `task_execution` group could be absorbed into a
   compact batch (its `tool_use_summary` label dropped), and the
   render-time force-expand check never got a chance to override.
   Mirror the `hasCommittedTerminalSubagent` predicate inside
   `isForceExpandGroup` so preprocessing and rendering agree.

## Doc / sanitization nits

- `BackgroundStatusChangeCallback` doc now lists every emitter
  (register / complete / fail / cancel / finalizeCancelled /
  finalizeCancellationIfPending / abandon / unregisterForeground /
  reset) and groups them by ordering camp (keeps-the-entry vs
  removes-the-entry — `reset` joins `unregisterForeground` in the
  delete-then-emit camp).
- ANSI-escape `data.subagentName` in the focus-holder banner and
  the queued marker (`SubagentExecutionRenderer`) — same threat
  model as the panel rows and `SubagentScrollbackSummary`.

## Coverage delta

- New ToolMessage case: live-phase terminal subagent now renders
  inline (replaces the prior "no scrollback summary" assertion that
  was the symptom of the AYvL9 bug).
- New ToolGroupMessage cases: terminal subagent in live phase
  renders inline; `forceShowResult=true` propagates for terminal
  subagent tools (mock now exposes the prop).
- New mergeCompactToolGroups parametrized cases: terminal subagent
  in any of completed / failed / cancelled stays its own batch.

280 tests pass across cli messages + utils + background-view +
core/agents. TS clean.

  • Live-phase filtering hides certain subagent tool entries (returns null), but the height allocation logic above (countToolCallsWithResults / availableTerminalHeightPerToolMessage) still counts all toolCalls, including ones that won’t be rendered. In mixed groups (subagent + sibling tools), this can under-allocate height to the visible ToolMessage components and cause unnecessary truncation. Consider computing a visibleToolCalls array (applying the same filter) and using it consistently for both height math and the render map.

`isPanelOwnedSubagentTool` checked for `status === 'paused'` but
`AgentResultDisplay.status` (the tool-result-side type) only carries
`'running' | 'completed' | 'failed' | 'cancelled' | 'background'`.
The `'paused'` status lives on the registry-side
`BackgroundTaskStatus` union and is only ever surfaced through
`LiveAgentPanel` directly, never through a `task_execution` payload.

Drop the dead arm and add a comment so a future "let's also check
paused here" doesn't get re-introduced.

@wenshao wenshao changed the title fix(cli,core): isPending gate on subagent scrollback summary + post-delete statusChange emit fix(cli,core): live-phase panel-ownership filter + post-delete statusChange emit May 8, 2026
Mixed live groups (running subagent + sibling tool) leaked the
panel-owned subagent into `CompactToolGroupDisplay`'s count and
`getActiveTool` selection, because `showCompact` returned BEFORE the
inline `.map()` filter ran. Compact-mode users would see e.g.
`task × 2 Delegate task to subagent` even though LiveAgentPanel
already owned the subagent row below the composer.

Derive `inlineToolCalls` once via `useMemo` immediately after the
existing hook block and use it consistently for the compact summary,
sizing math, and the render map. The early-return for
"all-entries-panel-owned" collapses into `inlineToolCalls.length === 0`
(gated on `isPending` so the legacy empty-input committed-phase
snapshot is preserved). Remove the inner `.map()` filter — the
upstream derivation already excluded the same entries.

JSDoc updates:
- `ToolGroupMessageProps.isPending` now describes the real flow
  (build inlineToolCalls / force-expand / forward to ToolMessage for
  parity).
- `ToolMessageProps.isPending` is documented as forwarded-but-inert
  (`SubagentExecutionRenderer` doesn't gate on it; the live-phase
  filter and the unconditional terminal summary do the actual work).

Regression test: live mixed group in compact mode → sibling wins
active-tool, count collapses to 1, no `× 2` suffix, no subagent
description in the header.

Addresses Copilot review comments 3205262972 / 3205263020 (doc/code
mismatch) and gpt-5.5 critical 3205288299 (compact-mode leak).
…ase too

Resolved comment 3203286936 codified the design intent that
`SubagentScrollbackSummary` "fires in BOTH live and committed phases"
to bridge `unregisterForeground`'s post-delete panel-snapshot drop
and the parent turn committing. Non-compact mode honored that
contract (terminal subagents render the summary inline whenever they
appear in `inlineToolCalls`), but compact mode still gated
`hasCommittedTerminalSubagent` on `!isPending`, so a foreground
subagent finishing mid-turn under compact mode produced NOTHING
inline until the parent committed — exactly the gap the bridge was
meant to close.

Drop the `!isPending` arm and rename `hasCommittedTerminalSubagent`
→ `hasTerminalSubagent`. The force-expand now applies to terminal
subagents in either phase; compact-mode users see the same outcome
line non-compact users already get. Mirrors
`SubagentExecutionRenderer`'s ungated terminal-summary path and
`mergeCompactToolGroups.isForceExpandGroup`'s no-isPending-gate
preprocessing rule.

Tests:
- Flip "compact mode: live group with completed subagent stays
  compact" → "force-expands so the summary bridges the panel-snapshot
  drop". Update rationale to reflect post-QwenLM#3921 reality (panel evicts
  terminal foreground rows immediately).
- Add "compact mode: live mixed group with terminal subagent +
  sibling force-expands and renders both" — covers the bridge in
  mixed groups.
- Update two stale `hasCommittedTerminalSubagent` cross-references
  in `mergeCompactToolGroups.{ts,test.ts}` comments.

Review

Both fixes close real gaps from #3909. The panel-ownership filter applied once before all downstream consumption (compact decision, sizing, render map, count) is the right architectural call — single-derivation discipline means LiveAgentPanel can be the sole source of truth for running/background subagents while pending-approval and terminal entries still pass through inline as intended. The terminal-subagent force-expand in both phases lets SubagentScrollbackSummary bridge the gap between panel-snapshot drop and parent commit cleanly.

The delete-then-emit swap in unregisterForeground correctly fixes the running-ghost-row bug in useBackgroundTaskView's snapshot, and the asymmetry against complete/fail/cancel/finalize (which keep terminal entries) is intentional and justified — those callers want callbacks to re-inspect via registry.get(). The reasoning is documented thoroughly in the new BackgroundStatusChangeCallback docstring. ANSI sanitization in SubagentExecutionRenderer and SubagentScrollbackSummary matches the existing panel threat model.

Verdict

APPROVE — Both fixes correct and well-tested.

* 2. Force-expand a compact group when committed AND carrying a
* terminal subagent, so `SubagentScrollbackSummary` actually
DragonnZhang pushed a commit that referenced this pull request May 8, 2026
…Change emit (#3919)

* fix(cli,core): isPending gate on subagent scrollback summary + post-delete statusChange emit

Two follow-ups from PR #3909 review.

1. **Re-introduce `isPending` gate on `SubagentExecutionRenderer`'s
   scrollback summary** (Copilot finding on PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AUQHn).
   The verbose inline frame retirement collapsed
   `SubagentExecutionRenderer` to "render the summary whenever a
   subagent reaches a terminal status" — but with `isPending`
   removed in #3909, that fired in BOTH live (pendingHistoryItems)
   AND committed (Static) phases. Live-phase rendering duplicated
   the row LiveAgentPanel already paints below the composer until
   the parent turn committed.

   Add `isPending` back to `ToolMessageProps` purely as a gate for
   this one render path: the summary fires only when `!isPending`
   (committed). `ToolGroupMessage` forwards the flag (it kept the
   prop on its own interface for upstream compat the whole time).
   Test gap closed by the new `live (isPending) terminal subagent
   → no scrollback summary (panel owns the row)` case.

2. **Emit `statusChange` AFTER delete in `unregisterForeground`**
   (Copilot finding on PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AUQGc + the panel-only
   reconciliation it spawned). The shared snapshot in
   `useBackgroundTaskView` only refreshes on `statusChange`, and
   `unregisterForeground` previously fired exactly once — BEFORE
   delete — so the snapshot froze with the agent as "running"
   while `registry.get()` returned undefined. Result:
   `BackgroundTasksDialog` list mode showed a ghost "running" row
   with cancel hints whose `x` was a no-op, contradicting what the
   panel already showed (synthesized neutral terminal).

   Fire `statusChange` a second time AFTER `agents.delete()` so
   snapshot consumers see the registry-less state and stop
   surfacing the agent. The first emit still mirrors
   complete/fail/cancel/finalize ordering (callbacks that re-read
   `registry.get` see the entry); the second emit is the new
   contract for snapshot-based views. React batches the two
   resulting setState calls into one re-render so consumers
   re-render exactly once.

   Updated the existing "emits status change before removing the
   entry" test to capture both emits and explicitly assert that
   the second observes the registry-less state. Added a sibling
   test covering the post-delete `getAll()` count.

Coverage: 190 passing tests across core + cli (background-view +
ToolMessage + ToolGroupMessage + useBackgroundTaskView).

* fix(cli,core): compact-mode terminal subagent expansion + statusChange context flag

Five review findings on PR #3919:

1. **Compact mode bypassed the scrollback summary** (gpt-5.5 via
   /qreview, ToolGroupMessage:324). `ToolGroupMessage` returns
   `CompactToolGroupDisplay` before the ToolMessage path when
   `compactMode === true`, so the new `isPending` gate on
   `SubagentExecutionRenderer` only protected the expanded path —
   committed terminal subagents in compact mode never reached
   `SubagentScrollbackSummary` and the LiveAgentPanel → committed-
   summary handoff broke for users who turned compact mode on.

   Force-expand the group when `!isPending` AND any tool call has a
   terminal `task_execution` resultDisplay. Stay compact while the
   parent turn is still live (`isPending`) — the panel below the
   composer owns that surface and an inline summary would
   duplicate it. Coverage: 4 new ToolGroupMessage cases (compact +
   completed-committed expands; compact + running-live stays compact;
   compact + completed-live stays compact; compact + failed-committed
   expands).

2. **Snapshot-coupled comment in `packages/core`** (Copilot,
   background-tasks.ts:292). The comment named CLI/UI consumers
   (`useBackgroundTaskView`, `BackgroundTasksDialog`) and asserted
   React batching guarantees from a core file. Reword to
   "snapshot-style consumers that re-pull `getAll()` from inside
   the callback" and drop the framework-specific batching claim.

3. **Two-phase emit needed an explicit signal** (Copilot,
   background-tasks.ts:283). Emitting `statusChange` twice without
   distinguishing the phases forced consumers to either do
   duplicate work or risk persisting a stale `entry` from the
   second callback. Add an optional second arg
   `context?: { removed?: boolean }` to
   `BackgroundStatusChangeCallback`; the post-delete emit passes
   `{ removed: true }` so consumers can disambiguate without
   re-querying the registry. Backwards compatible — existing
   callbacks ignore the new arg. Tests updated to assert both
   `mock.calls[0][1] === undefined` and
   `mock.calls[1][1] === { removed: true }`.

4. **`isPending` doc clarified** (Copilot, ToolMessage.tsx:507).
   Made the default semantics explicit: omitted/undefined is
   treated as committed (not pending); live-area renderers MUST
   pass `true` explicitly to suppress the scrollback summary.

5. (4 of the threads were duplicate Copilot fires of #2 + #3.)

Coverage: 219 test files / 3369 passing across cli/ui + core/agents.

* docs(cli): update ToolGroupMessageProps.isPending JSDoc

The previous prop comment claimed `isPending` was "not consumed by the
group body" — true at the time, but the body now reads it for two real
purposes (compact-mode gating + forwarding to ToolMessage). Update
the doc so future callers / tests don't treat it as legacy.

Addresses Copilot finding on PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYE0V.

* fix(cli): hide live-phase subagent tool entries — LiveAgentPanel owns the row

User report: with compact mode OFF, a running subagent shows up
twice — once as the parent tool group's `task` row (status icon +
name + description), once as the LiveAgentPanel row beneath the
composer. Same agent, two surfaces, redundant.

Filter `task_execution` tool entries out of the expanded
`ToolGroupMessage` while `isPending=true` so the panel is the
single source of truth for in-flight subagents. The entry returns
once the parent turn commits (`isPending=false`), letting
`SubagentScrollbackSummary` land inside the parent's tool group
as a persistent audit trail.

Exception: subagents with a pending approval still render, because
the focus-routed banner / queued marker is the only inline surface
that lets users answer the prompt without opening the dialog.

If a group is purely panel-owned (e.g. a single Task call with no
sibling tools), the entire `ToolGroupMessage` returns `null` so
an empty bordered container doesn't float above the panel.

Coverage: +4 ToolGroupMessage cases — running entry hidden in
live phase / mixed group keeps siblings / pending-approval entry
still renders / committed entry comes back for the audit trail.

* refactor(cli): tighten subagent-tool helper naming + ANSI-safe scrollback summary

Self-audit + independent review found 5 cleanup items on the live-phase
hide path; all addressed in one commit since none are behavioral
changes:

1. **Move `allEntriesPanelOwned` short-circuit BEFORE `showCompact`**
   so a pure-subagent group in compact mode is also hidden during the
   live phase (previously CompactToolGroupDisplay rendered a single
   summary line above the panel — a mild duplicate on top of what the
   non-compact path already fixed).
2. **Rename `isLiveSubagentTool` → `isSubagentToolEntry`.** The helper
   identifies a tool's resultDisplay shape; it doesn't check live-state.
   The previous name conflated "predicate" with "use case" and read as
   if it returned true only during the live phase.
3. **DRY up `hasCommittedTerminalSubagent`** to use `isSubagentToolEntry`
   instead of inlining its own type-narrowing.
4. **ANSI-escape `subagentName` / `taskDescription` / `terminateReason`**
   in `SubagentScrollbackSummary`. Same threat model as the panel rows
   and HistoryItemDisplay — these strings come from subagent config
   (user-authored) and LLM output and could carry terminal control
   sequences. The stats fields (tool count / duration / tokens) flow
   through trusted formatters and don't need escaping.
5. **Doc comments updated** to reflect the four real responsibilities
   of `isPending` on `ToolGroupMessageProps` (hide pure groups,
   force-expand committed compact, per-tool filter, forward to
   ToolMessage), to clarify that the keyboard-focused subagent id can
   point at a hidden tool harmlessly (the iterator returns `null`
   before the focus prop is computed), and to drop the redundant
   "EXCEPT" clause on the per-tool filter in favor of a single
   sentence.

Coverage unchanged: 251 passing tests across messages /
background-view / core/agents; broader 3374-test sweep clean; TS
clean on both cli and core packages.

* fix(cli,core): address 3 critical review findings + ANSI/doc cleanups

Three real bugs flagged by gpt-5.5 via /qreview, plus 4 doc /
sanitization nits from Copilot. All 7 threads close together since
they share the same surfaces.

## Critical fixes

1. **Foreground subagents disappeared mid-parent-turn**
   (PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYvL9). Post-#3921 swap-order, `unregisterForeground`
   drops the entry from the panel snapshot the moment the subagent
   finishes. The previous round's `!isPending` gate on
   `SubagentScrollbackSummary` then suppressed the inline summary
   too, leaving the user with nothing on screen for the run until
   the parent committed.

   - Drop the `!isPending` gate — `unregisterForeground` already
     removes the row from the panel, so the inline summary can fire
     in BOTH live and committed phases without duplicating it.
   - Tighten the `ToolGroupMessage` live-phase hide so it only
     filters `running` / `paused` / `background` task entries
     (`isPanelOwnedSubagentTool`), not terminal ones. Terminal
     entries pass through immediately so the summary lands.
   - The "panel-owned" predicate is now distinct from the broader
     "subagent tool entry" predicate (`isSubagentToolEntry`) and the
     "terminal subagent" predicate (`isTerminalSubagentTool`); each
     usage site picks the one it actually means.

2. **Compact mode dropped the scrollback summary**
   (PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYvLw). Force-expanding the group made the
   container go through the expanded path, but `ToolMessage`'s own
   compact-mode gate (`!compactMode || forceShowResult ? renderer
   : 'none'`) still suppressed the result block, so
   `SubagentScrollbackSummary` never rendered for compact-mode
   users. Pass `forceShowResult={true}` for terminal subagent tool
   entries so the result block is always rendered.

3. **`mergeCompactToolGroups.isForceExpandGroup` didn't know about
   terminal subagents** (PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYvMC). The committed-
   history preprocessor merged adjacent tool_groups before render,
   so a terminal `task_execution` group could be absorbed into a
   compact batch (its `tool_use_summary` label dropped), and the
   render-time force-expand check never got a chance to override.
   Mirror the `hasCommittedTerminalSubagent` predicate inside
   `isForceExpandGroup` so preprocessing and rendering agree.

## Doc / sanitization nits

- `BackgroundStatusChangeCallback` doc now lists every emitter
  (register / complete / fail / cancel / finalizeCancelled /
  finalizeCancellationIfPending / abandon / unregisterForeground /
  reset) and groups them by ordering camp (keeps-the-entry vs
  removes-the-entry — `reset` joins `unregisterForeground` in the
  delete-then-emit camp).
- ANSI-escape `data.subagentName` in the focus-holder banner and
  the queued marker (`SubagentExecutionRenderer`) — same threat
  model as the panel rows and `SubagentScrollbackSummary`.

## Coverage delta

- New ToolMessage case: live-phase terminal subagent now renders
  inline (replaces the prior "no scrollback summary" assertion that
  was the symptom of the AYvL9 bug).
- New ToolGroupMessage cases: terminal subagent in live phase
  renders inline; `forceShowResult=true` propagates for terminal
  subagent tools (mock now exposes the prop).
- New mergeCompactToolGroups parametrized cases: terminal subagent
  in any of completed / failed / cancelled stays its own batch.

280 tests pass across cli messages + utils + background-view +
core/agents. TS clean.

* fix(cli): drop `'paused'` arm from isPanelOwnedSubagentTool — not in AgentResultDisplay union

CI Lint failed with TS2367: the previous round's
`isPanelOwnedSubagentTool` checked for `status === 'paused'` but
`AgentResultDisplay.status` (the tool-result-side type) only carries
`'running' | 'completed' | 'failed' | 'cancelled' | 'background'`.
The `'paused'` status lives on the registry-side
`BackgroundTaskStatus` union and is only ever surfaced through
`LiveAgentPanel` directly, never through a `task_execution` payload.

Drop the dead arm and add a comment so a future "let's also check
paused here" doesn't get re-introduced.

* fix(cli): apply panel-ownership filter once before compact-mode decision

Mixed live groups (running subagent + sibling tool) leaked the
panel-owned subagent into `CompactToolGroupDisplay`'s count and
`getActiveTool` selection, because `showCompact` returned BEFORE the
inline `.map()` filter ran. Compact-mode users would see e.g.
`task × 2 Delegate task to subagent` even though LiveAgentPanel
already owned the subagent row below the composer.

Derive `inlineToolCalls` once via `useMemo` immediately after the
existing hook block and use it consistently for the compact summary,
sizing math, and the render map. The early-return for
"all-entries-panel-owned" collapses into `inlineToolCalls.length === 0`
(gated on `isPending` so the legacy empty-input committed-phase
snapshot is preserved). Remove the inner `.map()` filter — the
upstream derivation already excluded the same entries.

JSDoc updates:
- `ToolGroupMessageProps.isPending` now describes the real flow
  (build inlineToolCalls / force-expand / forward to ToolMessage for
  parity).
- `ToolMessageProps.isPending` is documented as forwarded-but-inert
  (`SubagentExecutionRenderer` doesn't gate on it; the live-phase
  filter and the unconditional terminal summary do the actual work).

Regression test: live mixed group in compact mode → sibling wins
active-tool, count collapses to 1, no `× 2` suffix, no subagent
description in the header.

Addresses Copilot review comments 3205262972 / 3205263020 (doc/code
mismatch) and gpt-5.5 critical 3205288299 (compact-mode leak).

* fix(cli): force-expand compact groups on terminal subagent in live phase too

Resolved comment 3203286936 codified the design intent that
`SubagentScrollbackSummary` "fires in BOTH live and committed phases"
to bridge `unregisterForeground`'s post-delete panel-snapshot drop
and the parent turn committing. Non-compact mode honored that
contract (terminal subagents render the summary inline whenever they
appear in `inlineToolCalls`), but compact mode still gated
`hasCommittedTerminalSubagent` on `!isPending`, so a foreground
subagent finishing mid-turn under compact mode produced NOTHING
inline until the parent committed — exactly the gap the bridge was
meant to close.

Drop the `!isPending` arm and rename `hasCommittedTerminalSubagent`
→ `hasTerminalSubagent`. The force-expand now applies to terminal
subagents in either phase; compact-mode users see the same outcome
line non-compact users already get. Mirrors
`SubagentExecutionRenderer`'s ungated terminal-summary path and
`mergeCompactToolGroups.isForceExpandGroup`'s no-isPending-gate
preprocessing rule.

Tests:
- Flip "compact mode: live group with completed subagent stays
  compact" → "force-expands so the summary bridges the panel-snapshot
  drop". Update rationale to reflect post-#3921 reality (panel evicts
  terminal foreground rows immediately).
- Add "compact mode: live mixed group with terminal subagent +
  sibling force-expands and renders both" — covers the bridge in
  mixed groups.
- Update two stale `hasCommittedTerminalSubagent` cross-references
  in `mergeCompactToolGroups.{ts,test.ts}` comments.

…Change emit (QwenLM#3919)

* fix(cli,core): isPending gate on subagent scrollback summary + post-delete statusChange emit

Two follow-ups from PR QwenLM#3909 review.

1. **Re-introduce `isPending` gate on `SubagentExecutionRenderer`'s
   scrollback summary** (Copilot finding on PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AUQHn).
   The verbose inline frame retirement collapsed
   `SubagentExecutionRenderer` to "render the summary whenever a
   subagent reaches a terminal status" — but with `isPending`
   removed in QwenLM#3909, that fired in BOTH live (pendingHistoryItems)
   AND committed (Static) phases. Live-phase rendering duplicated
   the row LiveAgentPanel already paints below the composer until
   the parent turn committed.

   Add `isPending` back to `ToolMessageProps` purely as a gate for
   this one render path: the summary fires only when `!isPending`
   (committed). `ToolGroupMessage` forwards the flag (it kept the
   prop on its own interface for upstream compat the whole time).
   Test gap closed by the new `live (isPending) terminal subagent
   → no scrollback summary (panel owns the row)` case.

2. **Emit `statusChange` AFTER delete in `unregisterForeground`**
   (Copilot finding on PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AUQGc + the panel-only
   reconciliation it spawned). The shared snapshot in
   `useBackgroundTaskView` only refreshes on `statusChange`, and
   `unregisterForeground` previously fired exactly once — BEFORE
   delete — so the snapshot froze with the agent as "running"
   while `registry.get()` returned undefined. Result:
   `BackgroundTasksDialog` list mode showed a ghost "running" row
   with cancel hints whose `x` was a no-op, contradicting what the
   panel already showed (synthesized neutral terminal).

   Fire `statusChange` a second time AFTER `agents.delete()` so
   snapshot consumers see the registry-less state and stop
   surfacing the agent. The first emit still mirrors
   complete/fail/cancel/finalize ordering (callbacks that re-read
   `registry.get` see the entry); the second emit is the new
   contract for snapshot-based views. React batches the two
   resulting setState calls into one re-render so consumers
   re-render exactly once.

   Updated the existing "emits status change before removing the
   entry" test to capture both emits and explicitly assert that
   the second observes the registry-less state. Added a sibling
   test covering the post-delete `getAll()` count.

Coverage: 190 passing tests across core + cli (background-view +
ToolMessage + ToolGroupMessage + useBackgroundTaskView).

* fix(cli,core): compact-mode terminal subagent expansion + statusChange context flag

Five review findings on PR QwenLM#3919:

1. **Compact mode bypassed the scrollback summary** (gpt-5.5 via
   /qreview, ToolGroupMessage:324). `ToolGroupMessage` returns
   `CompactToolGroupDisplay` before the ToolMessage path when
   `compactMode === true`, so the new `isPending` gate on
   `SubagentExecutionRenderer` only protected the expanded path —
   committed terminal subagents in compact mode never reached
   `SubagentScrollbackSummary` and the LiveAgentPanel → committed-
   summary handoff broke for users who turned compact mode on.

   Force-expand the group when `!isPending` AND any tool call has a
   terminal `task_execution` resultDisplay. Stay compact while the
   parent turn is still live (`isPending`) — the panel below the
   composer owns that surface and an inline summary would
   duplicate it. Coverage: 4 new ToolGroupMessage cases (compact +
   completed-committed expands; compact + running-live stays compact;
   compact + completed-live stays compact; compact + failed-committed
   expands).

2. **Snapshot-coupled comment in `packages/core`** (Copilot,
   background-tasks.ts:292). The comment named CLI/UI consumers
   (`useBackgroundTaskView`, `BackgroundTasksDialog`) and asserted
   React batching guarantees from a core file. Reword to
   "snapshot-style consumers that re-pull `getAll()` from inside
   the callback" and drop the framework-specific batching claim.

3. **Two-phase emit needed an explicit signal** (Copilot,

   `context?: { removed?: boolean }` to
   `BackgroundStatusChangeCallback`; the post-delete emit passes
   `{ removed: true }` so consumers can disambiguate without
   re-querying the registry. Backwards compatible — existing
   callbacks ignore the new arg. Tests updated to assert both
   `mock.calls[0][1] === undefined` and
   `mock.calls[1][1] === { removed: true }`.

4. **`isPending` doc clarified** (Copilot, ToolMessage.tsx:507).
   Made the default semantics explicit: omitted/undefined is
   treated as committed (not pending); live-area renderers MUST
   pass `true` explicitly to suppress the scrollback summary.

5. (4 of the threads were duplicate Copilot fires of #2 + #3.)

Coverage: 219 test files / 3369 passing across cli/ui + core/agents.

* docs(cli): update ToolGroupMessageProps.isPending JSDoc

The previous prop comment claimed `isPending` was "not consumed by the
group body" — true at the time, but the body now reads it for two real
purposes (compact-mode gating + forwarding to ToolMessage). Update
the doc so future callers / tests don't treat it as legacy.

Addresses Copilot finding on PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYE0V.

* fix(cli): hide live-phase subagent tool entries — LiveAgentPanel owns the row

User report: with compact mode OFF, a running subagent shows up
twice — once as the parent tool group's `task` row (status icon +
name + description), once as the LiveAgentPanel row beneath the
composer. Same agent, two surfaces, redundant.

Filter `task_execution` tool entries out of the expanded
`ToolGroupMessage` while `isPending=true` so the panel is the
single source of truth for in-flight subagents. The entry returns
once the parent turn commits (`isPending=false`), letting
`SubagentScrollbackSummary` land inside the parent's tool group
as a persistent audit trail.

Exception: subagents with a pending approval still render, because
the focus-routed banner / queued marker is the only inline surface
that lets users answer the prompt without opening the dialog.

If a group is purely panel-owned (e.g. a single Task call with no
sibling tools), the entire `ToolGroupMessage` returns `null` so
an empty bordered container doesn't float above the panel.

Coverage: +4 ToolGroupMessage cases — running entry hidden in
live phase / mixed group keeps siblings / pending-approval entry
still renders / committed entry comes back for the audit trail.

* refactor(cli): tighten subagent-tool helper naming + ANSI-safe scrollback summary

Self-audit + independent review found 5 cleanup items on the live-phase
hide path; all addressed in one commit since none are behavioral
changes:

1. **Move `allEntriesPanelOwned` short-circuit BEFORE `showCompact`**
   so a pure-subagent group in compact mode is also hidden during the
   live phase (previously CompactToolGroupDisplay rendered a single
   summary line above the panel — a mild duplicate on top of what the
   non-compact path already fixed).
2. **Rename `isLiveSubagentTool` → `isSubagentToolEntry`.** The helper
   identifies a tool's resultDisplay shape; it doesn't check live-state.
   The previous name conflated "predicate" with "use case" and read as
   if it returned true only during the live phase.
3. **DRY up `hasCommittedTerminalSubagent`** to use `isSubagentToolEntry`
   instead of inlining its own type-narrowing.
4. **ANSI-escape `subagentName` / `taskDescription` / `terminateReason`**
   in `SubagentScrollbackSummary`. Same threat model as the panel rows
   and HistoryItemDisplay — these strings come from subagent config
   (user-authored) and LLM output and could carry terminal control
   sequences. The stats fields (tool count / duration / tokens) flow
   through trusted formatters and don't need escaping.
5. **Doc comments updated** to reflect the four real responsibilities
   of `isPending` on `ToolGroupMessageProps` (hide pure groups,
   force-expand committed compact, per-tool filter, forward to
   ToolMessage), to clarify that the keyboard-focused subagent id can
   point at a hidden tool harmlessly (the iterator returns `null`
   before the focus prop is computed), and to drop the redundant
   "EXCEPT" clause on the per-tool filter in favor of a single
   sentence.

Coverage unchanged: 251 passing tests across messages /
background-view / core/agents; broader 3374-test sweep clean; TS
clean on both cli and core packages.

* fix(cli,core): address 3 critical review findings + ANSI/doc cleanups

Three real bugs flagged by gpt-5.5 via /qreview, plus 4 doc /
sanitization nits from Copilot. All 7 threads close together since
they share the same surfaces.

## Critical fixes

1. **Foreground subagents disappeared mid-parent-turn**
   (PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYvL9). Post-QwenLM#3921 swap-order, `unregisterForeground`
   drops the entry from the panel snapshot the moment the subagent
   finishes. The previous round's `!isPending` gate on
   `SubagentScrollbackSummary` then suppressed the inline summary
   too, leaving the user with nothing on screen for the run until
   the parent committed.

   - Drop the `!isPending` gate — `unregisterForeground` already
     removes the row from the panel, so the inline summary can fire
     in BOTH live and committed phases without duplicating it.
   - Tighten the `ToolGroupMessage` live-phase hide so it only
     filters `running` / `paused` / `background` task entries
     (`isPanelOwnedSubagentTool`), not terminal ones. Terminal
     entries pass through immediately so the summary lands.
   - The "panel-owned" predicate is now distinct from the broader
     "subagent tool entry" predicate (`isSubagentToolEntry`) and the
     "terminal subagent" predicate (`isTerminalSubagentTool`); each
     usage site picks the one it actually means.

2. **Compact mode dropped the scrollback summary**
   (PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYvLw). Force-expanding the group made the
   container go through the expanded path, but `ToolMessage`'s own
   compact-mode gate (`!compactMode || forceShowResult ? renderer
   : 'none'`) still suppressed the result block, so
   `SubagentScrollbackSummary` never rendered for compact-mode
   users. Pass `forceShowResult={true}` for terminal subagent tool
   entries so the result block is always rendered.

3. **`mergeCompactToolGroups.isForceExpandGroup` didn't know about
   terminal subagents** (PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYvMC). The committed-
   history preprocessor merged adjacent tool_groups before render,
   so a terminal `task_execution` group could be absorbed into a
   compact batch (its `tool_use_summary` label dropped), and the
   render-time force-expand check never got a chance to override.
   Mirror the `hasCommittedTerminalSubagent` predicate inside
   `isForceExpandGroup` so preprocessing and rendering agree.

## Doc / sanitization nits

- `BackgroundStatusChangeCallback` doc now lists every emitter
  (register / complete / fail / cancel / finalizeCancelled /
  finalizeCancellationIfPending / abandon / unregisterForeground /
  reset) and groups them by ordering camp (keeps-the-entry vs
  removes-the-entry — `reset` joins `unregisterForeground` in the
  delete-then-emit camp).
- ANSI-escape `data.subagentName` in the focus-holder banner and
  the queued marker (`SubagentExecutionRenderer`) — same threat
  model as the panel rows and `SubagentScrollbackSummary`.

## Coverage delta

- New ToolMessage case: live-phase terminal subagent now renders
  inline (replaces the prior "no scrollback summary" assertion that
  was the symptom of the AYvL9 bug).
- New ToolGroupMessage cases: terminal subagent in live phase
  renders inline; `forceShowResult=true` propagates for terminal
  subagent tools (mock now exposes the prop).
- New mergeCompactToolGroups parametrized cases: terminal subagent
  in any of completed / failed / cancelled stays its own batch.

280 tests pass across cli messages + utils + background-view +
core/agents. TS clean.

* fix(cli): drop `'paused'` arm from isPanelOwnedSubagentTool — not in AgentResultDisplay union

CI Lint failed with TS2367: the previous round's
`isPanelOwnedSubagentTool` checked for `status === 'paused'` but
`AgentResultDisplay.status` (the tool-result-side type) only carries
`'running' | 'completed' | 'failed' | 'cancelled' | 'background'`.
The `'paused'` status lives on the registry-side
`BackgroundTaskStatus` union and is only ever surfaced through
`LiveAgentPanel` directly, never through a `task_execution` payload.

Drop the dead arm and add a comment so a future "let's also check
paused here" doesn't get re-introduced.

* fix(cli): apply panel-ownership filter once before compact-mode decision

Mixed live groups (running subagent + sibling tool) leaked the
panel-owned subagent into `CompactToolGroupDisplay`'s count and
`getActiveTool` selection, because `showCompact` returned BEFORE the
inline `.map()` filter ran. Compact-mode users would see e.g.
`task × 2 Delegate task to subagent` even though LiveAgentPanel
already owned the subagent row below the composer.

Derive `inlineToolCalls` once via `useMemo` immediately after the
existing hook block and use it consistently for the compact summary,
sizing math, and the render map. The early-return for
"all-entries-panel-owned" collapses into `inlineToolCalls.length === 0`
(gated on `isPending` so the legacy empty-input committed-phase
snapshot is preserved). Remove the inner `.map()` filter — the
upstream derivation already excluded the same entries.

JSDoc updates:
- `ToolGroupMessageProps.isPending` now describes the real flow
  (build inlineToolCalls / force-expand / forward to ToolMessage for
  parity).
- `ToolMessageProps.isPending` is documented as forwarded-but-inert
  (`SubagentExecutionRenderer` doesn't gate on it; the live-phase
  filter and the unconditional terminal summary do the actual work).

Regression test: live mixed group in compact mode → sibling wins
active-tool, count collapses to 1, no `× 2` suffix, no subagent
description in the header.

Addresses Copilot review comments 3205262972 / 3205263020 (doc/code
mismatch) and gpt-5.5 critical 3205288299 (compact-mode leak).

* fix(cli): force-expand compact groups on terminal subagent in live phase too

Resolved comment 3203286936 codified the design intent that
`SubagentScrollbackSummary` "fires in BOTH live and committed phases"
to bridge `unregisterForeground`'s post-delete panel-snapshot drop
and the parent turn committing. Non-compact mode honored that
contract (terminal subagents render the summary inline whenever they
appear in `inlineToolCalls`), but compact mode still gated
`hasCommittedTerminalSubagent` on `!isPending`, so a foreground
subagent finishing mid-turn under compact mode produced NOTHING
inline until the parent committed — exactly the gap the bridge was
meant to close.

Drop the `!isPending` arm and rename `hasCommittedTerminalSubagent`
→ `hasTerminalSubagent`. The force-expand now applies to terminal
subagents in either phase; compact-mode users see the same outcome
line non-compact users already get. Mirrors
`SubagentExecutionRenderer`'s ungated terminal-summary path and
`mergeCompactToolGroups.isForceExpandGroup`'s no-isPending-gate
preprocessing rule.

Tests:
- Flip "compact mode: live group with completed subagent stays
  compact" → "force-expands so the summary bridges the panel-snapshot
  drop". Update rationale to reflect post-QwenLM#3921 reality (panel evicts
  terminal foreground rows immediately).
- Add "compact mode: live mixed group with terminal subagent +
  sibling force-expands and renders both" — covers the bridge in
  mixed groups.
- Update two stale `hasCommittedTerminalSubagent` cross-references
  in `mergeCompactToolGroups.{ts,test.ts}` comments.

…Change emit (QwenLM#3919)

* fix(cli,core): isPending gate on subagent scrollback summary + post-delete statusChange emit

Two follow-ups from PR QwenLM#3909 review.

1. **Re-introduce `isPending` gate on `SubagentExecutionRenderer`'s
   scrollback summary** (Copilot finding on PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AUQHn).
   The verbose inline frame retirement collapsed
   `SubagentExecutionRenderer` to "render the summary whenever a
   subagent reaches a terminal status" — but with `isPending`
   removed in QwenLM#3909, that fired in BOTH live (pendingHistoryItems)
   AND committed (Static) phases. Live-phase rendering duplicated
   the row LiveAgentPanel already paints below the composer until
   the parent turn committed.

   Add `isPending` back to `ToolMessageProps` purely as a gate for
   this one render path: the summary fires only when `!isPending`
   (committed). `ToolGroupMessage` forwards the flag (it kept the
   prop on its own interface for upstream compat the whole time).
   Test gap closed by the new `live (isPending) terminal subagent
   → no scrollback summary (panel owns the row)` case.

2. **Emit `statusChange` AFTER delete in `unregisterForeground`**
   (Copilot finding on PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AUQGc + the panel-only
   reconciliation it spawned). The shared snapshot in
   `useBackgroundTaskView` only refreshes on `statusChange`, and
   `unregisterForeground` previously fired exactly once — BEFORE
   delete — so the snapshot froze with the agent as "running"
   while `registry.get()` returned undefined. Result:
   `BackgroundTasksDialog` list mode showed a ghost "running" row
   with cancel hints whose `x` was a no-op, contradicting what the
   panel already showed (synthesized neutral terminal).

   Fire `statusChange` a second time AFTER `agents.delete()` so
   snapshot consumers see the registry-less state and stop
   surfacing the agent. The first emit still mirrors
   complete/fail/cancel/finalize ordering (callbacks that re-read
   `registry.get` see the entry); the second emit is the new
   contract for snapshot-based views. React batches the two
   resulting setState calls into one re-render so consumers
   re-render exactly once.

   Updated the existing "emits status change before removing the
   entry" test to capture both emits and explicitly assert that
   the second observes the registry-less state. Added a sibling
   test covering the post-delete `getAll()` count.

Coverage: 190 passing tests across core + cli (background-view +
ToolMessage + ToolGroupMessage + useBackgroundTaskView).

* fix(cli,core): compact-mode terminal subagent expansion + statusChange context flag

Five review findings on PR QwenLM#3919:

1. **Compact mode bypassed the scrollback summary** (gpt-5.5 via
   /qreview, ToolGroupMessage:324). `ToolGroupMessage` returns
   `CompactToolGroupDisplay` before the ToolMessage path when
   `compactMode === true`, so the new `isPending` gate on
   `SubagentExecutionRenderer` only protected the expanded path —
   committed terminal subagents in compact mode never reached
   `SubagentScrollbackSummary` and the LiveAgentPanel → committed-
   summary handoff broke for users who turned compact mode on.

   Force-expand the group when `!isPending` AND any tool call has a
   terminal `task_execution` resultDisplay. Stay compact while the
   parent turn is still live (`isPending`) — the panel below the
   composer owns that surface and an inline summary would
   duplicate it. Coverage: 4 new ToolGroupMessage cases (compact +
   completed-committed expands; compact + running-live stays compact;
   compact + completed-live stays compact; compact + failed-committed
   expands).

2. **Snapshot-coupled comment in `packages/core`** (Copilot,
   background-tasks.ts:292). The comment named CLI/UI consumers
   (`useBackgroundTaskView`, `BackgroundTasksDialog`) and asserted
   React batching guarantees from a core file. Reword to
   "snapshot-style consumers that re-pull `getAll()` from inside
   the callback" and drop the framework-specific batching claim.

3. **Two-phase emit needed an explicit signal** (Copilot,
   background-tasks.ts:283). Emitting `statusChange` twice without
   distinguishing the phases forced consumers to either do
   duplicate work or risk persisting a stale `entry` from the
   second callback. Add an optional second arg
   `context?: { removed?: boolean }` to
   `BackgroundStatusChangeCallback`; the post-delete emit passes
   `{ removed: true }` so consumers can disambiguate without
   re-querying the registry. Backwards compatible — existing
   callbacks ignore the new arg. Tests updated to assert both
   `mock.calls[0][1] === undefined` and
   `mock.calls[1][1] === { removed: true }`.

4. **`isPending` doc clarified** (Copilot, ToolMessage.tsx:507).
   Made the default semantics explicit: omitted/undefined is
   treated as committed (not pending); live-area renderers MUST
   pass `true` explicitly to suppress the scrollback summary.

5. (4 of the threads were duplicate Copilot fires of QwenLM#2 + QwenLM#3.)

Coverage: 219 test files / 3369 passing across cli/ui + core/agents.

* docs(cli): update ToolGroupMessageProps.isPending JSDoc

The previous prop comment claimed `isPending` was "not consumed by the
group body" — true at the time, but the body now reads it for two real
purposes (compact-mode gating + forwarding to ToolMessage). Update
the doc so future callers / tests don't treat it as legacy.

Addresses Copilot finding on PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYE0V.

* fix(cli): hide live-phase subagent tool entries — LiveAgentPanel owns the row

User report: with compact mode OFF, a running subagent shows up
twice — once as the parent tool group's `task` row (status icon +
name + description), once as the LiveAgentPanel row beneath the
composer. Same agent, two surfaces, redundant.

Filter `task_execution` tool entries out of the expanded
`ToolGroupMessage` while `isPending=true` so the panel is the
single source of truth for in-flight subagents. The entry returns
once the parent turn commits (`isPending=false`), letting
`SubagentScrollbackSummary` land inside the parent's tool group
as a persistent audit trail.

Exception: subagents with a pending approval still render, because
the focus-routed banner / queued marker is the only inline surface
that lets users answer the prompt without opening the dialog.

If a group is purely panel-owned (e.g. a single Task call with no
sibling tools), the entire `ToolGroupMessage` returns `null` so
an empty bordered container doesn't float above the panel.

Coverage: +4 ToolGroupMessage cases — running entry hidden in
live phase / mixed group keeps siblings / pending-approval entry
still renders / committed entry comes back for the audit trail.

* refactor(cli): tighten subagent-tool helper naming + ANSI-safe scrollback summary

Self-audit + independent review found 5 cleanup items on the live-phase
hide path; all addressed in one commit since none are behavioral
changes:

1. **Move `allEntriesPanelOwned` short-circuit BEFORE `showCompact`**
   so a pure-subagent group in compact mode is also hidden during the
   live phase (previously CompactToolGroupDisplay rendered a single
   summary line above the panel — a mild duplicate on top of what the
   non-compact path already fixed).
2. **Rename `isLiveSubagentTool` → `isSubagentToolEntry`.** The helper
   identifies a tool's resultDisplay shape; it doesn't check live-state.
   The previous name conflated "predicate" with "use case" and read as
   if it returned true only during the live phase.
3. **DRY up `hasCommittedTerminalSubagent`** to use `isSubagentToolEntry`
   instead of inlining its own type-narrowing.
4. **ANSI-escape `subagentName` / `taskDescription` / `terminateReason`**
   in `SubagentScrollbackSummary`. Same threat model as the panel rows
   and HistoryItemDisplay — these strings come from subagent config
   (user-authored) and LLM output and could carry terminal control
   sequences. The stats fields (tool count / duration / tokens) flow
   through trusted formatters and don't need escaping.
5. **Doc comments updated** to reflect the four real responsibilities
   of `isPending` on `ToolGroupMessageProps` (hide pure groups,

* fix(cli,core): address 3 critical review findings + ANSI/doc cleanups

Three real bugs flagged by gpt-5.5 via /qreview, plus 4 doc /
sanitization nits from Copilot. All 7 threads close together since
they share the same surfaces.

## Critical fixes

1. **Foreground subagents disappeared mid-parent-turn**
   (PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYvL9). Post-QwenLM#3921 swap-order, `unregisterForeground`
   drops the entry from the panel snapshot the moment the subagent
   finishes. The previous round's `!isPending` gate on
   `SubagentScrollbackSummary` then suppressed the inline summary
   too, leaving the user with nothing on screen for the run until
   the parent committed.

   - Drop the `!isPending` gate — `unregisterForeground` already
     removes the row from the panel, so the inline summary can fire
     in BOTH live and committed phases without duplicating it.
   - Tighten the `ToolGroupMessage` live-phase hide so it only
     filters `running` / `paused` / `background` task entries
     (`isPanelOwnedSubagentTool`), not terminal ones. Terminal
     entries pass through immediately so the summary lands.
   - The "panel-owned" predicate is now distinct from the broader
     "subagent tool entry" predicate (`isSubagentToolEntry`) and the
     "terminal subagent" predicate (`isTerminalSubagentTool`); each
     usage site picks the one it actually means.

2. **Compact mode dropped the scrollback summary**
   (PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYvLw). Force-expanding the group made the
   container go through the expanded path, but `ToolMessage`'s own
   compact-mode gate (`!compactMode || forceShowResult ? renderer
   : 'none'`) still suppressed the result block, so
   `SubagentScrollbackSummary` never rendered for compact-mode
   users. Pass `forceShowResult={true}` for terminal subagent tool
   entries so the result block is always rendered.

3. **`mergeCompactToolGroups.isForceExpandGroup` didn't know about
   terminal subagents** (PRRT_kwDOPB-92c6AYvMC). The committed-
   history preprocessor merged adjacent tool_groups before render,
   so a terminal `task_execution` group could be absorbed into a
   compact batch (its `tool_use_summary` label dropped), and the
   render-time force-expand check never got a chance to override.
   Mirror the `hasCommittedTerminalSubagent` predicate inside
   `isForceExpandGroup` so preprocessing and rendering agree.

## Doc / sanitization nits

- `BackgroundStatusChangeCallback` doc now lists every emitter
  (register / complete / fail / cancel / finalizeCancelled /
  finalizeCancellationIfPending / abandon / unregisterForeground /
  reset) and groups them by ordering camp (keeps-the-entry vs
  removes-the-entry — `reset` joins `unregisterForeground` in the
  delete-then-emit camp).
- ANSI-escape `data.subagentName` in the focus-holder banner and
  the queued marker (`SubagentExecutionRenderer`) — same threat
  model as the panel rows and `SubagentScrollbackSummary`.

## Coverage delta

- New ToolMessage case: live-phase terminal subagent now renders
  inline (replaces the prior "no scrollback summary" assertion that
  was the symptom of the AYvL9 bug).
- New ToolGroupMessage cases: terminal subagent in live phase
  renders inline; `forceShowResult=true` propagates for terminal
  subagent tools (mock now exposes the prop).
- New mergeCompactToolGroups parametrized cases: terminal subagent
  in any of completed / failed / cancelled stays its own batch.

Mixed live groups (running subagent + sibling tool) leaked the
