- src/agent/lh-tool.ts deleted: the zod-wrapped LhTool + toPiTool bridge
(z.toJSONSchema per call, clientQuestion flag, hand-rolled result mapping)
is gone. Tools are pi-agent-core native AgentTools now.
- New src/agent/tool-execute.ts owns what the wrapper added: the abort guard
(runWithAbortGuard: run signal + 30s per-call timeout + 250ms grace,
'Operation aborted' / timeout wording preserved), ToolInputError (the
retryable '- problem at path' format), result mapping (string verbatim /
object JSON / image parts, details rides the record's tool part output),
and questionResult() — placeholder + terminate:true (owner Option A:
belt of terminate + slim makeQuestionStopper with the clean-question
rule; maxTurns deleted from the teaching turn entirely per owner).
- All 11 tool files + tools.ts registries converted to TypeBox parameters
(typebox@1.3.7, pinned to pi-agent-core's copy). zod refinements
(quizInputProblems, askOptionProblems, live-nodeId) moved from schemas
into execute — the model sees the same retryable error shape.
- question-core + contracts/probe TypeBox-authored (single source shared
with the UI); tool-parts parse seam runs the boundary's full chain
(Convert → Check → Clean → refinement), fixing the live-smoke lockout:
pi's boundary Value.Converts correctAnswer: 17 → '17' but the record
keeps raw args, so a parse without Convert rejected a posed quiz
(invisible pending question, turn ended). Pinned with the real smoke
emission shape.
- Subagents converted: demo-builder/researcher AgentTool-native,
visual-maker/pdf-reader declaration-only pi-ai Tools with local execute
fns, extraction submit schemas re-authored in TypeBox (owner option 2:
zod defaults → Type.Optional + fill at the submit seam).
- Accepted delta, flagged: TypeBox-native schemas skip pi's JSON-Schema
primitive coercion fast path... (boundary still Value.Converts), and
prober-quiz unknown keys ride through (Value.Clean strips at display).
- Tests: 988 passing (was 967 at the recon baseline); tool-abort and
read-tool rewritten against the native seams; question-core/question-
tools/tool-parts/demos/web-search/graph-tools/plan-tree/probe-done/
tool-toggles converted to Value.Check/execute pins.
Live smoke (PORT=3004, real model): native ls turn streams end-to-end; a
real quiz pose (first attempt missing correctAnswer → tool-input-error →
model retry → posed) terminates the turn cleanly and persists pending.
The architectural answer to the validation-crash question: validation IS
first at the model-facing boundary (pi validates arguments before
execute; failures return to the model same-turn — all three live
incidents retried successfully). But the same bytes also exist UNVALIDATED
by design in two other places: the live wire streams raw tool-input
deltas DURING generation, and the transcript keeps the raw input of
REJECTED calls (honesty + the replay invariant). The consumers were
supposed to trust part STATES — but that trust was enforced by
TypeScript casts ('part.input as X'), which are compile-time lies with
no runtime check behind them. That is the hole both crashes came
through, and it should not have been possible.
The structural rule now: model-authored INPUT is consumed only through
parsers running the SAME zod schema the model faced — boundary-valid ⇔
consumer-parseable, mechanically. Server/learner-authored OUTPUT stays
trusted (our code authors it).
- src/core/tool-parts.ts (new): parseQuizInput (display parse over the
shared quizInputBase — strips the teacher-only nodeId, accepts both
prober and teacher boundary shapes), parseAskInput, parseProbeDoneInput.
- contracts/probe.ts: probeDoneInputSchema is now core-owned zod — the
probe_done tool declares it (single source of truth), the seam runs
the literal same schema.
- question-dock.tsx: the dock parses its input at entry; unparsable
renders the quiet malformed-question fallback, never a crash.
- probe-done-card.tsx: the input preview goes through the parse; the
old state reasoning and shape guards collapse into it.
Pinned in tests/tool-parts.test.ts: both exact live crash shapes
(stringified quiz options, stringified assessment), boundary-parity
cases for all three schemas, nodeId stripping, mid-stream partials;
render-cards pins the dock fallback markup.
Gates: tsc, lint, build, 328/328.
