Learner source files, on the teacher's own terms (nothing auto-injects): - read tool (src/agent/tools/read.ts): pi-read port — path/offset/limit, 2000-line/50KB truncation with use-offset continuation notices, image files (jpg/png/gif/webp/bmp) returned as native image content parts (new LhToolImageResult escape hatch in lh-tool.ts). Always-on in both the prober and teacher registries (user-decided 2026-09). - pdf-reader sub-agent (JobKind 'pdf', toggleable, ack-and-steer): triage via pdf_info (pdfjs text layer: per-page text/image/math-density), targeted pdf_extract, regex pdf_search (hits count as consultation), and pdf_render — pages painted by pdfjs onto a canvas shim in headless Chrome (the pdfium viewer doesn't paint headless), screenshot fed back image-in-the-loop (visual-maker idiom, providerSafePng applied). The unread-finish gate bounces a zero-consultation brief once. Teacher gets a text brief with page citations only; renders never leave the loop. - MODELS.pdfReader = qwen/qwen3.8-flash (user override 2026-09-19: the look-at-renders workload wants the vision-proven model; catalog listed glm-5.3-flash as image-capable but qwen is the known-good daily driver). - UI: PdfCompleteBadge + PdfBriefCard (steer-card, job-card), dispatch card + activity-dock kind entries (type-forced, flagged for UI review). - Prompts: 'Learner source files' section in teacher/30-jobs.md; read line in prober/10-probe-doctrine.md. Doctrine rides tool descriptions per the self-contained-tools principle.

/**
|
|
* THE ASYNC PROTOCOL — "ack now, steer later" (the pi sub-agents model,
|
|
* vision §2.5):
|
|
*
|
|
* 1. Job tools (research / demo / visual / pdf) are SERVER-EXECUTED. The model
|
|
* calls one MID-TURN; execute creates the job record, fires the
|
|
* background runner, and resolves IMMEDIATELY with an acknowledgement
|
|
* ("dispatched — continue your turn"). The teacher's turn does NOT end
|
|
* at the call: it keeps teaching, may dispatch other independent jobs
|
|
* (full parallelism), and ends whenever it ends. The tool part's output
|
|
* is the ack, forever.
|
|
*
|
|
* 2. The background runner (src/agent/subagents/runner.ts) runs the kind's
|
|
* sub-agent loop — isolated context, modelFor(role), the
|
|
* verify-never-one-shot doctrine (headless-tested demos, looked-at SVGs,
|
|
* sourced briefs) — tracking a live activity line in the job record.
|
|
* ONE central client poll of GET /api/jobs?chatId=… (in Chat) drives every
|
|
* job surface: the transcript dispatch cards (live activity by
|
|
* toolCallId, quiet one-liner after delivery), the sub-agents sidebar
|
|
* panel, and the single re-sync when a job settles.
|
|
*
|
|
* 3. On completion the runner builds a STEER MESSAGE (buildSubagentSteer)
|
|
* and hands it to the wake pipeline (src/server/jobs.ts): a user-role
|
|
* UIMessage carrying the result — a text part with what the MODEL needs
|
|
* (the research brief, the builder's notes), plus a data-subagent-artifact
|
|
* part with what the UI renders (the full result: brief + sources /
|
|
* SVG / demo HTML). Provider conversion drops data parts, so artifact
|
|
* payloads never enter the teacher's context. metadata.subagentResult
|
|
* identifies the job; the UI renders these as sub-agent result cards,
|
|
* NEVER as learner interjections.
|
|
*
|
|
* 4. The wake pipeline delivers the steer by firing a SERVER-SIDE teacher
|
|
* turn through the same turn composition as a client request
|
|
* (handleChatRequest) — write-ahead persist, turn liveness, extraction
|
|
* trigger: one code path. A per-chat serialized queue: a steer waits
|
|
* while a turn is in flight OR a question tool part is pending (an
|
|
* unanswered client-side tool call breaks provider conversion — the
|
|
* steer fires right after the learner's continuation), then fires; a 409
|
|
* (a client turn raced in) retries. Delivery is idempotent per jobId, so
|
|
* a crashed wake can be re-entered by the stale-job recovery sweep. The
|
|
* job's status flips to done/error only AFTER the wake turn completes —
|
|
* a polling client that sees the flip re-syncs once and gets the
|
|
* finished record.
|
|
*
|
|
* CONTINUATION COALESCING: the idle window above can starve — a
|
|
* quiz-chaining teacher ends every turn with a new pending check, so
|
|
* the gates never stay open long enough for a wake to fire. The fix:
|
|
* when a client turn wins the turn registry, the handler CLAIMS every
|
|
* queued, undelivered steer (jobs.ts claimSteers) and appends it after
|
|
* the learner's answer in that very turn — conversion-safe, because the
|
|
* answered quiz carries its output. Every answer flushes pending
|
|
* steers immediately; the wake pump remains for turns that end with no
|
|
* pending question. The pump re-checks steerDelivered right before
|
|
* firing, so a claim racing the pump converges to exactly one delivery.
|
|
*
|
|
* 5. No pending job parts ever exist, so the composer never gates on jobs
|
|
* (the learner can interject mid-job; the steer queues behind their
|
|
* turn) and job tool outputs never trigger the client-side
|
|
* sendAutomatically continuation — that mechanism stays quiz/ask-only.

|

// no text part; the adapter flattens data-graph-context to graphContextText
|
|
// (core/contracts/chat.ts owns the wording). One per chat, ever — the id is
|
|
// deterministic per chat, so re-delivery is idempotent.
