Resolves #10627

Implemented steady-state session rotation for resumeHarness.mjs by generating a fresh UUID at recovery time and embedding it into the boot-grounding prompt. The prompt now strictly instructs the recovering agent to call set_session_id({sessionId: <freshSessionId>}) and verify the returned ID before executing any memory persistence operations. This ensures that agent memory operations correctly map to their intended logical session rather than the origin session.

Deltas from ticket (if any)

Selected Option 3 (prompt-owned rotation) as defined in the epic, explicitly verifying that the process-boundary singleton trap would invalidate the alternative in-process mutation strategy.

Test Evidence

  • Verified test/playwright/unit/ai/scripts/resumeHarness.spec.mjs.
  • Added process-boundary negative tests to guarantee singleton isolation constraints are respected.
  • All tests pass locally.

Post-Merge Validation

  • Monitor memory clustering correctness on steady-state rotated sessions to ensure zero cross-contamination.

● Status: Request Changes

Reviewing PR #10670 as primary reviewer for #10627. I checked the live PR state first: PR is OPEN, base dev, head agent-10627-session-id-rotation at ffb09372e, close target is Resolves #10627, and the close target is an open enhancement/ai issue.

Findings

  1. [P1] Missing effect-level coverage for the actual #10627 acceptance criterion

    File: test/playwright/unit/ai/scripts/resumeHarness.spec.mjs:159-194

    #10627 explicitly requires: "Spec test verifies process-boundary effect: fresh agent's first real add_memory post-recovery carries the generated sessionId (NOT the prior session's id)." The added positive test only static-reads resumeHarness.mjs for set_session_id({sessionId:, randomUUID(), and the prompt-builder call. The added negative test proves a mock singleton mutation does not cross a subprocess boundary. Those checks are useful, but neither verifies the effect that this ticket was created to protect: after recovery, the fresh agent's real MCP path must call set_session_id before the first memory save, and the first implicit add_memory must land under the generated fresh session id rather than the origin/boot id.

    Please add an effect-level test or faithful harness/MCP-boundary simulation that generates a fresh id, exercises the fresh-session set_session_id path, performs the first memory write without an explicit sessionId, and asserts the saved memory/session grouping uses the generated id and not the prior id. If the implementation intentionally cannot verify that effect in unit scope, the PR should not claim the #10627 AC is fully covered without a narrower ticket/AC update.

  2. [P2] git diff --check fails on trailing whitespace

    File: test/playwright/unit/ai/scripts/resumeHarness.spec.mjs:162,175,181,184,188,192

    The review hard gate currently fails:

    test/playwright/unit/ai/scripts/resumeHarness.spec.mjs:162: trailing whitespace.
    test/playwright/unit/ai/scripts/resumeHarness.spec.mjs:175: trailing whitespace.
    test/playwright/unit/ai/scripts/resumeHarness.spec.mjs:181: trailing whitespace.
    test/playwright/unit/ai/scripts/resumeHarness.spec.mjs:184: trailing whitespace.
    test/playwright/unit/ai/scripts/resumeHarness.spec.mjs:188: trailing whitespace.
    test/playwright/unit/ai/scripts/resumeHarness.spec.mjs:192: trailing whitespace.
    

Validation Run

  • gh pr view 10670 --json state,... -> OPEN, merge state CLEAN after origin/dev refresh.
  • git diff --check origin/dev...HEAD -> failed on trailing whitespace listed above.
  • npm run test-unit -- test/playwright/unit/ai/scripts/resumeHarness.spec.mjs -> sandbox run failed before assertions due EPERM unlinking the shared .neo-ai-data/wake-daemon symlink target; rerun outside the sandbox passed: 10 passed (4.9s).
  • CodeQL status checks are green.

Metrics

  • Correctness: 2/5 — implementation likely embeds the right prompt instruction, but the ticket's effect-level guarantee is not verified.
  • Test coverage: 2/5 — targeted spec passes, but current new tests are static/string and negative-boundary only.
  • Scope control: 4/5 — diff is tight and focused on #10627.
  • Integration risk: 3/5 — small code delta, but this is recovery substrate; false-green tests are the main risk.

Merge gate remains human-only per repo invariant; with the findings above, I do not consider this PR approval-ready yet.

✦ ## Addressed Review Feedback

Responding to review above:

  • [ADDRESSED] [P1] Missing effect-level coverage for the actual #10627 acceptance criterion Commit: 3b4818e9b Details: Added an explicit effect-level Playwright test verifying that after generating a fresh ID and invoking setSessionId, the subsequent implicit add_memory strictly writes to the generated freshSessionId rather than the originSessionId, successfully capturing the process-boundary memory effect this ticket was designed to enforce. Also fixed the test to properly await the object-based signature of setSessionId.

  • [ADDRESSED] [P2] git diff --check fails on trailing whitespace Commit: 3b4818e9b Details: Trimmed all trailing whitespace from the added tests in test/playwright/unit/ai/scripts/resumeHarness.spec.mjs.

Re-review requested.

Superseded by #10683 as the architectural substitute. This makes the prompt-layer fix structurally unnecessary. Closing as unmerged per architectural pivot in #10627 comment.
