Progress Stream

Streaming Dispatch Unified Under Shared Post-Response Path

The streaming entrypoint now routes through the same post-response dispatch logic as the standard agent path. This architectural change eliminates code duplication and ensures consistent post-task behavior (memory writes, state updates, Linear callbacks) regardless of whether the agent is streaming or not.

Fixed Orchestrator Deadlock in Fan-Out Task Dispatch

Eliminated a critical deadlock condition where orchestrator workers waiting for child tasks would hold their worker slots indefinitely, starving the pool and preventing those child tasks from executing. The fix releases worker slots during wait_for_tasks, allowing fan-out patterns to complete reliably.

Proactive Checkpoint and Self-Suspension for Agent Reliability

Shipped proactive checkpoint and self-suspension features in agent_executor.py and task_runner.py (SCE-2037, SCE-2038). Agents can now save progress at strategic milestones and suspend themselves when approaching token limits or detecting task complexity requiring human review. New test suite verifies self-suspension behavior under multiple failure scenarios.

Drift Alerts Now Send to Slack

Replaced placeholder logging with real Slack notifications in the drift detector. When agents detect drift between expected and actual task outcomes, the system now sends actionable alerts to Slack instead of silently logging them. This closes the observability loop for drift detection.

Updated Claude Sonnet 4 Model IDs Across Platform

Replaced all references to the retired claude-sonnet-4-20250514 model ID with claude-sonnet-4-6 across five core platform modules and test suite. This preventative update ensures uninterrupted AI operations as Anthropic retires the older model identifier.

Abstention Tests Updated for Natural Hedging Language

Updated Sabine's test suite to assert natural uncertainty expressions instead of mechanical phrases like 'I believe' or 'don't have that in my notes'. The change acknowledges that effective AI assistants communicate uncertainty using context-appropriate hedging language that feels conversational rather than programmatic.

Sabine conversation memory now loads from database every turn

Fixed a critical bug where Sabine's conversational memory wasn't loading conversation history from the database on each /invoke call. This ensures Sabine maintains full context across all interactions, preventing the frustrating 'forgotten context' experience where the AI would lose track of earlier parts of a conversation.

Sabine Now Remembers Your Conversation for Better Follow-ups

Sabine can now use conversation history when answering follow-up questions, making multi-turn interactions feel more natural and intelligent. Previously, each question was treated in isolation—now Sabine understands context from earlier messages. This makes complex workflows smoother and reduces the need to repeat information.
