Summary

  • let a user explicitly ask a bot to list, schedule, update, pause, resume, run, or delete routines from chat
  • keep every proposed mutation inert behind a durable Confirm / Cancel card showing the exact schedule, destination, duration, and full instructions
  • preserve ownership, revision checks, Cloud readiness, secret redaction, audit history, active-branch limits, restart recovery, and exactly-once scheduler commits
  • support the same confirmation semantics in individual and channel calls, including safe voice retries and keyboard-accessible details

Verification

  • pnpm test: 2,253 passed, 19 skipped across 209 files; broker, updater, desktop viewer, package link, save-file, boot probe, and packaged-server checks passed
  • pnpm typecheck
  • focused routine / integration / UI suite: 166 passed
  • git diff --check
  • independent backend and UI reviews: no blockers

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added chat-based routine scheduling and management for daily or one-time routines.
    • Users can review confirmation cards before creating, updating, pausing, resuming, running, or deleting routines.
    • Added support for local and cloud execution targets, with validation and readiness checks.
    • Routine approvals remain pending safely across restarts and apply only after confirmation.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved spoken and visual approval flows, including retry handling and clearer routine-specific labels.
    • Strengthened protection against duplicate requests and accidental exposure of routine details or secrets.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This change adds chat-driven routine scheduling. Agents can list and propose routine changes. The server stores durable confirmation cards, validates and applies approved operations exactly once, and the client renders routine-specific approval and voice flows.

Changes

Chat-driven routine scheduling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Routine contract and agent tools
shared/routine-request.ts, server/decision-log.ts, server/drivers/agents-proxy.ts, server/drivers/agents-proxy.test.ts
Adds normalized routine request types and three MCP tools for listing, creating, and managing routines.
Atomic routine mutations and receipts
server/routines.ts, server/routines.test.ts
Persists request receipts with scheduler mutations, supports deduplication and recovery, and restores state after failed writes.
Proposal validation and settlement
server/routine-requests.ts, server/routine-requests.test.ts
Validates routine proposals, creates confirmation cards, checks ownership and readiness, resolves decisions, and applies routine operations.
Server endpoints and recovery
server/index.ts, server/index.test.ts, server/store.ts, server/store.test.ts
Adds internal routine endpoints, approval resolution, decision logging, secret redaction, thread cleanup, prompt instructions, and boot-time receipt reconciliation.
Routine approval presentation and voice flow
src/state/store.tsx, src/components/PendingApproval.tsx, src/components/ApprovalCard.tsx, src/components/CallView.tsx, src/components/GroupCallView.tsx, src/components/ApprovalCard.test.ts
Adds routine-specific approval labels and actions. Voice flows remain in flight until the server saves the decision and can retry failed decisions.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 0863d

The PR adds chat-driven creation and management of persistent routines behind confirmation cards, but the current head includes a broken confirmation-path test and, in deployments with untrusted local callers or multiple users, confirmation authority is inferred from local routes and conversation identifiers rather than an independently authenticated user. Merge should wait for the test correction and explicit acceptance or tightening of that authorization boundary.

…a, model-shaped coercion, guiding errors (#544)

Field report (0.1.38, hours after #540 shipped): a bot's propose_routine
failed on every attempt — the model tried a 30-minute interval, was told no,
fell back to "daily", failed again, then gave up ("the routine proposal tool
is returning errors every time — it's not accepting any input").

Reproduced the whole pipeline against a live server: the endpoint and proxy
are correct for valid payloads. What actually breaks in the field is the
tool's advertised schema: schedule was a oneOf of two const-discriminated
branches — exactly the JSON-Schema keywords several agent CLIs flatten or
drop when converting MCP tools into their provider's function-call format
(codex only began preserving oneOf in June 2026; other drivers still
simplify). A model that never saw the branches guesses shapes forever, and
every guess failed with a message that never taught it the right one.

Three changes, all proxy-side — the harness dialect is untouched:

- The schedule schema is now one flat object (type enum once|weekly|daily +
  at/time/weekdays), free of oneOf/const/format, so it survives any
  conversion. Rules live in descriptions and are enforced with words.
- normalizeScheduleInput coerces what models actually send: "daily" becomes
  weekly-on-all-seven-days on the wire, JSON-string schedules are parsed,
  weekday names are case-folded and short names (mon..sun) expanded.
- Unsupported shapes now answer with instructions instead of a wall: a
  sub-day interval is named as unsupported with the closest alternatives,
  weekly-without-weekdays points at "daily", unknown types list the three
  supported shapes with examples.

Verified end-to-end against a live server: daily / stringified / short-cap
payloads now produce confirmation cards, interval and missing-weekdays get
guiding errors, and the valid-weekly path is byte-identical. Mutation check:
disabling the daily alias fails the new tests.
