What changed

Reworks the coding-agent surface and fixes token accounting through the Anthropic shim.

Coding agents. Drops the JetBrains editors (clion, rustrover) and the whole src/ide/ provider/proxy path, and adds three OpenAI-shaped agents that need no translator: hermes, openclaw, deepseek. They sit in src/harness/agents.{h,cpp} as one table plus a small Handoff switch — same shape as the existing opencode path, no vtable, nothing else restructured.

Each agent is wired the way its own source actually reads config, verified against the installed tools rather than their docs (both docs were wrong):

  • hermesCUSTOM_BASE_URL plus --provider custom --model pinned on the argv, because OPENAI_BASE_URL is deliberately ignored at runtime and model.provider in the user's config outranks the env var. Key name is derived from the endpoint host, the way Hermes gates credentials.
  • openclaw — a copy of the user's own openclaw.json with one provider added, via OPENCLAW_CONFIG_PATH (not OPENCLAW_CONFIG, which does not exist in the build), with OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR pinned so state does not move.
  • deepseek — a --patch overlay pointing dsh at a settings document, so nothing lands in $DSH_HOME.

The real context window and price come from the console catalog for all three, the same pair opencode --cloud already uses. Nothing wally writes for any of them outlives the run, and none touches the user's own config or credentials — checked by fingerprinting the config files before and after a run.

Claude Desktop self-heal. The gateway profile is the one piece of wiring left on disk rather than in a child process, so a wally killed mid-session leaves the app on a dead port. Any later run now restores it.

Usage reporting. Fixes 0 out token counts: glm-5.3-flash streams its answer as reasoning_content, which the shim never read, so a reasoning-heavy reply looked free. Reasoning now forwards as an Anthropic thinking block and real counts come through; a truncated stream falls back to a character estimate rather than a bare zero.

Tests

ctest 10/10, with new hermetic tests for the agent wiring, the config shapes, the host-gated key derivation, and the reasoning-block mapping. Contract binding, versions, retired-model and agents-sync checks all pass locally.

🟡 Minor · Report failed stale-gateway restoration. · src/app.cpp:237-239

237-239: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Report failed stale-gateway restoration.

RestoreGateway(&failure) can return false, but this branch does not report failure. If deployment-mode or profile writes fail, Claude Desktop can remain pointed at the stale wally endpoint without a diagnostic. Handle the failure with out::error_line, or propagate it through the existing error-handling path.

Addressed the review in 10031c9.

  • Unsigned thinking blocks (translate.cpp, both Major). Dropped the thinking block entirely rather than emit one without a signature or fabricate one. Reasoning tokens still count toward the fallback estimate, and the endpoint's own completion_tokens (which already includes them) stays authoritative — so the usage fix holds without an unsigned block or an out-of-order stop. That also removes the reasoning/text ordering issue, since there is no second live block.
  • Config file permissions (agents.cpp, Major/CWE-378). The temp config now creates with open(O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_WRONLY, 0600) before the key is written, so there is no 0644 window and no symlink race. Windows keeps the ofstream path — its per-user temp dir is already ACL-restricted.
  • --quiet (app.cpp). RestoreStaleDesktopGateway now reads -q/--quiet off argv (it runs before CLI11 parses, same as --no-color); the heal still happens, only the status line is suppressed.
  • YAML path escaping (agents.cpp). The DeepSeek patch wraps the path and model in a single-quoted scalar with quotes doubled.
  • Doc model ids (EDITORS.md). Dropped the models/ prefix — ModelIdIsSafe rejects /, so the examples would have failed resolution.
  • Agent-table test. Now asserts hermes, openclaw and deepseek are all present, not just a count.

🟠 Major · Include nested tool-result content and tool-call arguments in the fallback estimate. · src/anthropic/translate.cpp:324-324

324-324: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Include nested tool-result content and tool-call arguments in the fallback estimate.

EstimateRequestTokens counts only top-level text blocks. AppendMessage forwards nested tool_result.content as OpenAI tool message content and tool_use.input as function.arguments. When upstream usage is absent, StreamCloseToAnthropic uses the incomplete estimate for input_tokens. This undercounts requests and can delay context compaction.

Build the estimate from the transformed OpenAI messages, or include nested tool-result content and historical tool-call arguments. Add a fallback-usage test with both cases.

Second round addressed in d6e2269.

  • Fallback estimate missed tool content (translate.cpp). EstimateRequestTokens now walks blocks and counts a tool_result's nested content and a tool_use's serialized input, not just top-level text — so a coding turn built mostly of file contents and edit payloads no longer estimates near-zero and delays compaction. Extended the estimate test with both cases.
  • Gateway heal matched any argv token (app.cpp). It now finds the invoked subcommand (first token that isn't a root option or --home's value) and skips only when that is claude-desktop. A forwarded claude-desktop in another agent's arguments (wally opencode … claude-desktop) no longer suppresses the heal.
