+# 旁路长对话与上下文预算
+
+2026-09-11 修复。原实现将请求 JSON 的字符数直接视为 token，并继承主任务的 32K 输出预留，因此 HTML、JS 和工具结果较多时会提前拒绝正常旁路问题。
+
+## 开源实现核对
+
+- [Grok CLI 旁路上下文](https://github.com/superagent-ai/grok-cli/blob/fb97af83f06dca873281d60168430f06c8de6324/src/agent/agent.ts#L739)：从最近的用户、助手文本中摘取片段，字符预算约 2000，每条至多截取 400 字符。未在此路径维护连续旁路问答历史。
+- [Grok CLI 独立请求](https://github.com/superagent-ai/grok-cli/blob/fb97af83f06dca873281d60168430f06c8de6324/src/utils/side-question.ts)：独立取消信号；模型支持时输出上限为 2048 tokens；不提供工具。
+- [Grok CLI 主会话压缩](https://github.com/superagent-ai/grok-cli/blob/fb97af83f06dca873281d60168430f06c8de6324/src/agent/compaction.ts)：估算 token、保留近期内容、把新内容更新进旧摘要，并处理跨回合截断。
+- [OpenCode 会话压缩](https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode/blob/b3f1a96c6dd7adeb28b36dd11add1998fc84d67b/packages/core/src/session/compaction.ts)：完整请求估算、输出/缓冲预留、近期内容加滚动摘要、无工具摘要请求；该实现默认近期预算 8000、摘要输出上限 4096 tokens。
+- [OpenCode 溢出恢复](https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode/blob/b3f1a96c6dd7adeb28b36dd11add1998fc84d67b/packages/core/src/session/runner/llm.ts)：尚未开始助手输出时才尝试溢出恢复，恢复后的调用不再进入同一溢出恢复路径。
+
+ARTEX 借鉴独立输出预算、近期内容与滚动摘要、有限恢复的做法。保持 norma v0.3.6 的结构化消息与工具配对，不照搬 Grok 的文本摘录；不把 OpenCode 的主会话压缩事件写入 ARTEX 主 transcript。
+
+## 请求预算与执行
+
+- 消息沿用 norma 的按内容块 UTF-8 字节估算及 4/3 余量；额外计入系统提示、工具 schema 和消息封装开销。估算不是模型精确 token 计数。
+- 旁路输出默认最多 8192 tokens，也不超过主配置已设的输出上限。可用服务环境变量 `ARTEX_BTW_MAX_OUTPUT_TOKENS` 设置 256–32768 的上限；不会修改产品默认模型或主任务参数。
+- 输入预算为上下文窗口减去输出上限和安全余量；未知窗口使用平台默认 200K。安全余量为窗口的 5%，最小 128、最大 8192 tokens。
+- 成功问答按递增序号每批最多加载 20 组。最多保留 20 组原文，其 token 预算最多为输入预算的 1/4，且不超过 16K。
+- 超额问答更新到滚动摘要。摘要带历史来源与上下文时间；历史助手回答不等同于新的工具证据，冲突时优先依据最新主快照。
+- 主上下文仍过长时，仅摘要副本中的旧消息，近期最多保留 8K tokens；截取点不会拆开工具调用与结果。过大的单组会整体进入摘要。
+- 摘要输入按实际剩余窗口进行 UTF-8 安全分块，输出上限 2048 tokens；空摘要、截断、工具调用或超出摘要预算均不写缓存。单次旁路最多 12 次摘要调用，并受同一 120 秒超时限制；达到上限会明确失败，不无限循环。
+- 若模型首次返回上下文超限且尚未输出文本或工具调用，进一步缩减后最多重试一次；若估算大小没有下降，立即停止恢复。其他模型错误和部分流式输出不触发该恢复。
+- 所有已取得用量，包括摘要、失败尝试和取消时的用量，累加到同一旁路请求。Provider 不返回用量时仍只能记录零，不能把估算伪装成实际用量。
+
+## 持久化与界面
+
+`side_question_sessions.memory` 保存旧问答摘要、覆盖的 ordinal，以及按快照身份缓存的主上下文摘要。`side_question_requests.context_info` 保存准备阶段、实际回放组数、摘要使用情况和预算估算。
+
+摘要只在原请求仍运行且清理版本匹配时保存；清空同时清除缓存，迟到写入不会恢复已清理数据。新快照不复用旧快照摘要。摘要字段随 v3 任务归档保存；恢复旧 v3 缺失字段时补空对象，v1/v2 继续兼容。
+
+POST 先接纳并返回请求，准备与压缩在后台执行，不持有准入锁或数据库事务。SSE/历史显示准备、整理问答、压缩副本、回答阶段；压缩失败作为该旁路请求的失败终态保存。前端保留错误并恢复本次失败问题的草稿，不用悬浮通知遮挡输入框；历史轮询不再清掉提交错误。
+
+## 验证记录
+
+- 19/20/21/50 组回放、跨 20 组旧结论保留、摘要缓存重启复用：自动化通过。
+- 超长中文回答和代码上下文、分块请求预算、工具配对、快照不变、新快照缓存失效：自动化通过。
+- 摘要失败/取消/截断/超长/工具返回、清空竞争、调用上限、仅一次溢出恢复及部分流不重试：自动化通过。
+- 独立 PostgreSQL 的分页、重启、v1/v2/v3 归档、摘要缓存与预算元数据归档恢复、旧 v3 缺少新字段、20 个父会话共享四个并发名额：通过。
+- Go 候选服务构建、前端 TypeScript 检查、修改组件的 Biome 检查，以及独立目录中的 Next.js 生产构建：通过。
+- 内置浏览器使用独立 UI 夹具，在 1280×720 和 390×844 验证整理阶段、摘要范围提示、失败后草稿恢复、无悬浮错误通知、无横向溢出和控制台无错误。临时夹具已移除。
+- 只读回放本机现有 Worker 快照，新预算检查通过；例如 Worker #3 的 293085 字符快照不再被本地字符计数误判拒绝。此项没有外部模型调用。
+- 本次将私有 Worker 快照发送到 Grok 的真实对话测试被自动审批审查拒绝，未执行，不作为通过项。
+- 2026-09-11 00:37 按用户要求重启本机后端，沿用原数据库、数据目录和登录配置。运行文件与候选二进制 SHA-256 一致；后端及前端代理的 `/api/health` 均返回正常。
+
+验证命令（仅使用独立测试库）：
+
+```sh
+go test -race ./sidequestion ./db ./server -run 'TestSide|TestCheckpoint|TestSnapshot|TestBuildRequest|TestService|TestMainSide|TestTaskArchive' -count=1
+go build ./cmd/artex
+npx tsc --noEmit
+npm run build -- --webpack
+```
+
+前端生产构建使用独立副本，避免覆盖当前预览的 `.next`。候选服务位于 `/private/tmp/artex-btw-budget-candidate`，已复制到 `/private/tmp/artex-btw-preview/artex` 并启动；原二进制备份为同目录下的 `artex.before-context-budget`。

+# ARTEX `/btw`
+
+普通聊天、任务 MainAgent 和当前任务自己的 Worker 支持独立旁路提问。主输入框输入 `/btw 问题` 即可提交，空 `/btw` 或“旁路提问”按钮打开历史。桌面使用可调整宽度的侧栏，移动端使用 Drawer。
+
+旁路回答根据提交时的 Agent 上下文快照生成，支持流式显示、追问、停止和清空。关闭面板、刷新页面或断开 SSE 都不会取消模型请求。停止只影响当前旁路；清空会取消旁路并删除旁路历史，同时保留主上下文快照。
+
+## 实现边界
+
+沿用 Go、norma v0.3.7、Next.js、现有 Markdown / ResizablePanel / Drawer / AlertDialog 组件；没有修改 norma 源码或为旁路添加依赖。Planner、继承自其他任务的 Worker、工具型子任务升级不在本次范围内。
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart LR
+    A[主 Agent QueryDeps] --> B[实际 Provider 绑定]
+    B --> C[不可变结构化快照]

+    F --> G[SideQuestionService 单次 Provider 请求]
+    G --> H[(独立旁路历史和用量)]
+    H --> I[累计回答 SSE / 旁路面板]
+```
+
+- `capture.go` 只在 `Options.Deps.CallModel / CallModelSync` 标记主循环请求。Provider 装饰器位于具体模型内部、路由池外层选择之后，因此记录实际选中的模型；压缩和摘要请求不覆盖快照。
+- 请求开始、完整模型回复、运行终态发布快照。正在生成的半段回复不发布；工具调用通过 norma 的 `MessagesForAPI` 保持配对，工具结果在下一次主模型请求或运行终态进入快照。流式中止保留上一个有效边界。
+- 快照通过 JSON 深拷贝保留结构化消息、系统提示、工具定义及生成参数。模型推理不持有快照锁或数据库事务。
+- `SideQuestionService` 调用具体 Provider；必要时先生成旁路摘要，最终回答仅在首次上下文超限且尚未输出文本/工具调用时允许缩减后重试一次。不创建 agent session，不接入工具执行器、主 transcript、活动流或任务图，也不经过任务模型切换链。回答保留工具定义是为兼容既有结构化工具上下文；摘要请求不提供工具。新返回的工具调用没有执行路径。
+- 每个父会话一个运行请求，单个服务进程最多四个，单次超时 120 秒。旁路使用服务生命周期下的独立取消上下文。
+- 旁路请求保留模型配置引用和非敏感身份摘要；请求时从现有配置取得凭据。配置被删除，或模型、协议、地址等身份字段变化，要求先运行主 Agent 更新快照。测试不会改变产品默认模型。
+
+## 持久化和恢复
+
+`db/schema.sql` 自动创建 `side_question_sessions` 和 `side_question_requests`。前者保存父资源、最新快照、运行编号、版本和清理版本；后者保存问题、累计回答、状态、模型、快照时间、用量、事件序号和分页序号。
+
+父会话键使用 conversation ID，或 task ID + exploration ID + intent ID。Worker 不使用可复用的执行槽位命名。
+
+快照按父会话合并写入，每 250 ms 刷新一次，数据库比较 `(run_id, version)` 防止旧版本覆盖。旁路提交前再次保存选定快照。成功保存后释放内存中的大快照；失败时保留待写版本。回答累计内容在流式事件到来时最多每 250 ms 写入一次，终态立即保存并在数据库错误时有限重试。
+
+服务启动将遗留 `running` 请求标记为 `interrupted`，保留已落库的部分回答和用量，不自动重放请求。最近成功保存的上下文可直接用于下一次提问。旧会话没有快照时要求先运行主 Agent，不从 UI 活动记录重建上下文。
+
+清空操作递增清理版本并删除请求；条件更新阻止迟到的回调重新写回。物理父资源删除依靠外键级联，Worker 逻辑删除在同一事务中删除旁路数据，并拒绝后续迟到快照。任务归档先阻止新请求、等待主流程停止、取消并等待旁路落库；归档格式为 v3，同时兼容不含旁路表的 v1/v2。
+
+历史完整保存，按序号游标每页最多返回 20 条。模型请求最多回放最近 20 组成功问答原文，同时按 token 预算限制回放量；较旧问答维护独立滚动摘要。主上下文超预算时仅摘要旁路副本的旧部分，保留近期结构化工具调用与结果。摘要、准备进度与用量一起纳入旁路的并发、取消和 120 秒超时限制。详见 [上下文预算与开源参考](CONTEXT_BUDGET.md)。

+| `GET /api/side-questions/{requestID}/events` | `snapshot` SSE 事件，`id` 为递增序号，`data` 为完整累计请求对象；清空时发送 `cleared` |
+| `POST /api/side-questions/{requestID}/cancel` | 显式取消；终态可从历史或 SSE 读取 |
+
+问题上限 4000 字符。无快照、模型配置变化、同一父会话忙或幂等 ID 冲突返回 409；全局并发上限返回 429。每次 SSE 连接都先发送累计状态，不依赖客户端之前收到的文本片段。前端按请求 ID + 序号合并，并在切换父会话、清空时废弃旧回调。

+
+- `TestInheritedActivityDetailAndRelationDeletion`
+- `TestTaskMetadataPatchReturnsRenameAndPin`
+
+从上述未修改基线导出源码后，在相同隔离环境重跑 `server` 包，也复现这两个清理失败。基线运行另出现 `TestCoreTaskLifecyclePG` 的目标节点数量断言失败；最终修改后的 `server` 回归没有该断言失败。其他包通过，本次旁路相关用例及 race 检查通过。没有将基线问题标为本次验收通过，也没有为隐藏问题修改既有断言。
+
+Next.js 构建输出已有的多 lockfile / workspace root 推断警告；构建完成且所有页面生成成功。
+
+## 浏览器检查
+
+使用 Codex In-app Browser，连接独立本地 Go 服务和 Next.js 开发服务器。桌面与 390 × 844 窄屏完成以下人工自动化操作，检查截图和浏览器日志：
+
+- 普通聊天运行期间输入 `/btw`，主内容和旁路同时显示；桌面侧栏正常。
+- 连续追问；旁路停止后保留已生成部分；主流程继续。
+- 关闭面板时请求继续，重开后恢复完成的回答；刷新页面后空 `/btw` 恢复历史。
+- 窄屏 Drawer 的输入、按钮、历史和关闭操作正常，无横向溢出。
+- 清空使用确认弹窗，清空后历史消失，主 transcript 和快照保留。
+- 任务 MainAgent 与两个 Worker 分别提问并切换，Agent 标签和历史未串话。
+- 阻塞式本地模型夹具保持 Worker 运行；从 Worker 主输入框提交 `/btw`，停止旁路后 Worker 仍显示实时运行和自己的暂停按钮，旁路保存部分回答。
+- 浏览器错误 / 警告日志为空。
+
+可控夹具用于精确验证并发时序，不依赖真实模型的输出速度。调试期间两次 Worker 运行时检查未形成有效并发窗口（任务已结束 / 回答提前结束），修正夹具后重做并通过；不将这些初始操作记作有效通过。
+
+## 真实模型对话
+
+优先探测 `grok-4.6`，OpenAI 兼容接口 `http://127.0.0.1:12580/tingly/openai`。探测 HTTP 200，返回模型名 `grok-4.6` 和 `READY`，耗时 2.82 秒。首选可用，因此没有启用 Tingly `glm` 或智谱 `glm-5.3` 备用链；这两个备用服务本次没有验证。
+
+| 场景 | 实际结果 |
+| --- | --- |
+| 主会话运行期间询问资产、目标、标记 | 返回 `redhaze.top`、首页读取和总结目标、`BTW-REAL-0910`；旁路完成，16.97 秒 |
+| 主会话完成首页读取后询问工具依据 | 正确引用 WebFetch 200、curl 跳转 301 → 302 → 200、页面标题；7.24 秒 |
+| 旁路要求 Bash 创建测试文件 | 拒绝执行，目标文件未创建；7.74 秒 |
+| 完成后的旁路不改变主上下文 | 主 transcript SHA-256 与主活动记录保持一致；旁路工具执行次数为 0 |
+| 真正停止 / 重启 Go 服务后续问 | 保留先前 3 条旁路历史，直接从持久化快照回答资产、标记和标题，未重跑主 Agent |
+| 新会话使用 Grok 非流式配置 | 正确回答资产和 `ATOMIC-0910`；返回并保存用量：input 11734、output 138、cache_read 11520 |
+
+资产案例的主会话使用 WebFetch 和 Bash/curl 读取公开首页，落地页为 `https://id.redhaze.top/home`，标题为“红幕科技 RedHaze Group · 全球综合集团门户”。Bash 把响应暂存于本地测试文件；未向远端执行写入。该事实与“旁路没有执行工具”分开核验。
+
+主 transcript 校验值：`e7e61f135a4a120954b539f357e8c4205d7d5cd7460dcaf3dc0fd066463e1d00`。
+
+**用量限制：** Tingly 的 Grok 流式响应没有返回 usage。另行直接发送 `stream_options.include_usage=true` 验证，HTTP 200、12 个数据帧、0 个 usage 帧。因此流式测试中的 0 表示端点没有提供用量，不能解释为没有计费。非流式用量以及夹具的失败 / 取消用量都正确保存。
+
+## Qwen 审查
+
+审查模型 `qwen-flash`，OpenAI 兼容接口 `https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1`，HTTP 200。提供了前三项真实旁路对话、主会话工具依据及工程断言；返回 `verdict: accept`、`concerns: []`，认为回答与资产、标记、页面读取证据一致，旁路工具拒绝符合约束。审查用量：prompt 6625、completion 312、total 6937。
+
+这次 Qwen 审查范围不包含后来追加的服务重启和非流式测试。Qwen 对“无写入”的概括过宽：主会话 curl 确实创建了本地响应临时文件，上文已明确记录。并发、零工具执行和 transcript 隔离由工程断言判断，模型审查只辅助评估答案质量。
