What changed

  • Send each coordinated teammate request and downstream result in the provider user turn.
  • Keep only stable coordination policy in the system prompt, so Claude's resumed prompt snapshot cannot pin an earlier assignment.
  • For Claude coordinated turns on CLI 2.1.267 or newer, use --system-prompt-snapshot off. If a headless turn starts before the Engines page checks the installed CLI version, probe --version first so an older CLI never receives the unsupported flag. This also refreshes pair conversations created before the fix, whose original system snapshot may already contain the first assignment.
  • Show an Engines update notice for Claude CLI versions below 2.1.267, describing only the context controls that version lacks.
  • In room turns, use the existing transcript for recent requests and reports. Compare both raw and JSON-escaped text when checking for them; repeat the brief only when the 30-message context window has dropped it. A resumed turn gets a short reminder to review settled teammate results.
  • Cover reused direct pair conversations, resumed room context, and supported and older Claude CLIs in isolated provider fixtures.

Why

Claude Code snapshots the system prompt on a session's first request. Reusing a direct pair conversation meant later coordinate_bots assignments were present only in a system prompt update that Claude ignored on --resume, so the teammate repeated the first assignment.

Fixes #1232.

How it was verified

  • pnpm typecheck
  • pnpm lint
  • Before rebasing onto current main: pnpm exec vitest run server/drivers/claude.test.ts server/direct-coordination.e2e.test.ts server/thread-aware-bots.e2e.test.ts server/room-coordination.e2e.test.ts server/steer-e2e.test.ts --maxWorkers=1 (175 passed, 1 skipped).
  • After rebasing, the five-file targeted suite passed with the version-probe change (174 passed, 1 skipped). On the final head, the full Claude driver suite passed (118 passed, 1 skipped), including update-notice coverage for 2.1.232 and headless first turns on 2.1.232 and 2.1.267; pnpm typecheck and pnpm lint passed.
  • GitHub Actions CI on the final head requires upstream maintainer approval before its required macOS, Ubuntu, and Windows jobs can run. Vercel preview deployment requires SupaMaus Team authorization; Vercel is not a required branch check.
  • pnpm broker:test (9 passed)
  • pnpm test:electron (205 passed, 2 skipped)
  • pnpm test:packaged-server (passed)
  • The initial full pnpm test run reached 6,752 passing tests. Two unrelated local failures remain reproducible in isolation: terminal sanitization emits a trailing space in server/cli-prompts.test.ts, and the Codex app-server stderr fixture sees a local websocket 426 line in server/drivers/codex.test.ts.

The local commands used Node 24.21.0 and pnpm 10.33.0 on macOS.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Changes

The coordination flow keeps stable policy in the system prompt and sends assignment-specific instructions in the user turn. Resumed Claude turns can refresh the system prompt after version discovery. Tests and fixtures validate prompt placement, deduplication, result delivery, and snapshot behavior.

Coordination prompt routing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Separate system policy from turn instructions
server/contracts.ts, server/index.ts
Coordination orchestration now carries stable system instructions, per-turn instructions, resumed state, and prompt-refresh requests. Group-member prompts check raw and JSON-escaped transcript content before adding instructions.
Control resumed Claude snapshots
server/drivers/claude.ts, server/drivers/claude.test.ts
Claude checks its CLI version before adding --system-prompt-snapshot off. Supported resumed turns use the flag; older versions continue with --resume without it.
Validate prompt and result delivery
server/direct-coordination.e2e.test.ts, server/room-coordination.e2e.test.ts, server/testing/room-handoff-agent.ts
Tests and fixtures inspect user-turn content, combined context, snapshot mode, prompt deduplication, and withheld results.

2382-2383: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Trim the duplicated non-resumed coordination policy.

coordinationSystemInstructions() is sent as the stable system prompt, while coordinationTurnText() is sent as the per-turn user text. Claude reuses the stable prompt but writes each per-turn text again and reports those input tokens as billed input. Keep the assignment ID, node.text, and the untrusted-content warning in the per-turn text:

♻️ Suggested trim of the per-turn text
 function coordinationTurnText(node: RoomHandoff, resumed: boolean): string {

For a consultation, answer the question; do not turn it into an implementation project. For work, inspect the actual files and run the requested checks. Use coordinate_bots only for necessary subwork or consultation, then end your turn; results resume you automatically. Named teammates participate only through actual coordinate_bots results, not native helper agents or your own checks. Do not poll or wait. Report what you actually did and what remains unverified.

🟡 Minor · Avoid duplicating coordination text in group turns. · server/index.ts:7286-7286

7286-7286: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Avoid duplicating coordination text in group turns. roomContext already includes the addressed assignment, and resumed turns can include the child task and result there. Appending orchestration.turnInstructions at server/index.ts:7286 repeats this content, increasing prompt size and reducing available context. Remove this append from the group assembly and leave the direct-pair startTurn path unchanged.

…dedup on the wire spelling

Rebasing this onto main needed two substantive changes, not just conflict
resolution.

**The --help probe no longer exists.** This branch gated
`--system-prompt-snapshot` behind `claudeCliHelpSupportsFlag(cliHelp, ...)`,
but milind-soni#1214 removed help-text probing from the Claude driver — `cliHelp`,
`claudeCliHelpSupportsFlag` and the fake CLI's `--help` branch are all gone
from main, which reverted a3b1d61 back to version floors. Left as written,
this branch would not typecheck, and its new tests would spawn the fake CLI
with `--help`, get no answer, and block until the 8s timeout.

Ported to main's existing mechanism instead: `--system-prompt-snapshot` is
registered in CLAUDE_FLAG_FLOORS at 2.1.267 (the first CLI that accepts it)
and gated with `claudeCliSupports(cliVersion, ...)`, exactly like
--strict-mcp-config, --setting-sources and --autocompact. Below the floor
the recorded prompt simply is not refreshed, which is the old behaviour.

The "CLI supports it" test also now calls `instance.snapshot()` first, so
the version floor is what admits the flag; without it the driver saw a null
version and would have pushed the flag for any CLI, passing for the wrong
reason.

**The room dedup compared the wrong spelling.** Requests and results reach
the transcript inside a JSON envelope (roomHandoffReport), so anything with
a newline appears escaped there. `roomContext.includes(child.result)` could
never match a multi-line result, so the brief was re-appended on top of a
transcript that already carried it — the exact duplication this check exists
to prevent. It now compares both spellings, and the fixture result is
multi-line so the case is actually covered.

Mutation-checked all three:
- floor raised above 2.1.267 → the "supports it" test fails (flag absent)
- floor dropped to 0 → the "old CLI" test fails (flag pushed when it must not be)
- dedup reverted to a raw compare → the brief duplicates (length 2, not 1)

typecheck, lint green; claude, direct-coordination, room-coordination and
thread-aware-bots suites 169 passed.

🟠 Major · Fix: turnContext is deleted before the bot branch reads it, so the recorded context figure is always lost. · server/index.ts:4268-4269

4268-4269: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Fix: turnContext is deleted before the bot branch reads it, so the recorded context figure is always lost.

At Line 4227, turnContext.delete(event.threadId) runs unconditionally for every turn.completed event, before the if (bot) branch executes. At Line 4268, that same branch calls turnContext.get(event.threadId) to read lastContext — but the entry for this thread was already deleted at Line 4227, so lastContext is always undefined. No thread.token-usage.updated event can run between those two points inside one turn.completed handler invocation, so the value is never repopulated.

As a result, context.tokens passed to store.addTaskUsage (Line 4276) is always undefined, and context.window always falls back to modelContextWindow(contextModel). The per-turn context-token tracking this PR adds to contracts.ts never reaches the task usage record for direct (1:1) turns.

Compare with turnUsage/lastReported right above: that value is captured into a local variable before the map entry is deleted. Apply the same pattern to turnContext.

🐛 Proposed fix
       const lastReported = turnUsage.get(event.threadId);
       turnUsage.delete(event.threadId);
-      turnContext.delete(event.threadId);
+      const lastContext = turnContext.get(event.threadId);
+      turnContext.delete(event.threadId);
       // group turns run on the room's thread — the speaking bot's task
         const tokens = event.usage ?? lastReported;
         // the context figure: what the last model call's prompt held, with
         // the window from the driver or, failing that, the model's family
-        const lastContext = turnContext.get(event.threadId);
-        turnContext.delete(event.threadId);
         const contextModel = store.taskByThread(bot.id, event.threadId)?.modelSelection?.model ?? bot.modelSelection.model;
