fix: path is duplicated on tool calls causing them to fail (#4658) #4859

There is an issue opened

#4658
Path is duplicated on tool calls causing them to fail

What happens is when LLM calls text_editor in diff mode it passes
path: /a/b/c/base/src/file.go
in diff there is path: base/src/file.go

Inside mpatch they are merged and produce
path: /a/b/c/base/src/base/src/file.go

This path doesn't exist and tool fails.

Maybe it's an error from LLM side, that it calls tool incorrectly. But I tried several and it's a common issue.

So I propose to remove overlapping part from base_dir before sending to mpatch. I tested fix in Linux and it works good.

thanks @demetrio108 cc @tlongwell-block wonder if this was impacting well formed diff problem you mentioned?

@demetrio108 will need to run ./scripts/clippy-lint.sh (or ask goose to sort it out!)

+        let adjusted_components = base_components[..base_components.len() - max_k].to_vec();
+        PathBuf::from_iter(adjusted_components)
+    } else {
+        base_dir.to_path_buf()


should this change the type too? if so adjust the name

You mean Path to PathBuf? It's impossible to return Path. I'm not sure which name change you mean

    // Apply patch with fuzzy matching (70% similarity threshold)
-    let success = apply_patch(patch, base_dir, false, 0.7).map_err(|e| match e {
+    let success = apply_patch(patch, &adjusted_base_dir, false, 0.7).map_err(|e| match e {


I am not sure I have enough context here, but is this right? should we use the adjusted base here or should we have adjusted the patch file_path?

Inside the patch there is valid path relative to current goose working directory. Base directory is passed wrong by LLM

ah, thanks, that's helpful

fix the n2 and let's merge!

demetrio108 · 2025-09-29T20:19:31Z

@DOsinga I don't understand, what n2?

michaelneale · 2025-09-29T21:36:40Z

@demetrio108 I think @DOsinga means the O n squared thing here #4859 (comment) - which looks like you changed some code for?

There's KMP algorithm with O(m+n) complexity, but it's an overkill in current case and it's not elegant
