Summary

Carries #6092 by @wtfsayo onto current dev, which now includes #6172 (the #6091 carry this was stacked on; both rewrite src/adapters/devin.ts). The branch was rebased onto dev after #6172 merged; its diff is the six contributor commits plus the lane commits below.

Four Devin wire failures, each reproduced live by the contributor:

  • Oversized history never compacted. Cognition answers an over-window request with invalid_argument and no output, the same code as a bad tool schema, so Codex never shrank the conversation and every later turn failed the same way. A no-output invalid_argument on a request at or above 95% of the model's input window is now reported as context_length_exceeded, which makes Codex compact. Smaller requests still get the plain 400.
  • Gemini rejected JSON-schema type arrays. "type": ["string", "null"] in tool parameters failed every turn on Gemini rows. For Gemini models only, a type array becomes anyOf branches; when an existing anyOf disagrees with the outer keywords, both are kept under allOf.
  • Failed tool results read as success. The ERROR: text prefix is kept and wire field [codex] Fix Windows shim test #9 (tool_result_is_error) is also set; field [codex] Fix Windows shim test #9 alone was read as success by SWE and GPT rows.
  • The leading system prompt now travels in request field [codex] Add Neuralwatt effort routing #2 instead of being folded into the first user message.

Lane fixes on top:

Carries #6092. Contributor commits are cherry-picked with their authorship; lane commits carry the trailer.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Devin adapter now encodes system messages and failed tool results in cloud requests, normalizes Gemini tool schemas, and classifies some pre-output invalid_argument errors as context overflows. Tests and documentation cover the request encoding, schema conversion, context-window thresholds, and error classification.

Changes

Devin request handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Cloud request encoding and tool handling
src/adapters/devin/cloud-direct/chat.ts, src/adapters/devin/cloud-direct/tool-schema.ts, tests/providers/devin-chat-wire-fixes.test.ts, tests/providers/devin-image-passthrough.test.ts
The request builder sends leading system text in field #2, encodes failed tool results with field #9, and prepares tool descriptions for transmission. Gemini tool schemas receive recursive type-array normalization; other model schemas pass through unchanged. Tests cover request fields, tool errors, and schema constraints.
Token limits and history-overflow handling
src/adapters/devin.ts, src/adapters/devin/context-overflow.ts, tests/providers/devin-chat-wire-fixes.test.ts, tests/fixtures/test-layout-expected.json, scripts/test-layout/layout.json, docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/codex-integration.md, structure/providers-and-adapters.md
The adapter resolves the effective context window from available model and provider limits. Before output, an invalid_argument error is classified as context_length_exceeded when the request estimate reaches 95% of a known window, or 512 KiB when no window is known. The adapter emits the structured error event for matches. Tests and documentation describe the thresholds and exclusions.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to f0536

The remaining concern is a small performance cost on failed oversized requests. It does not need to block merge.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to f0536

Caller-supplied instructions are now sent with higher authority, and some request errors can trigger conversation recovery. Existing access checks remain, but the downstream recovery behavior is not fully visible.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · inferred: Leading caller-supplied system or developer content now reaches an instruction-bearing upstream field instead of a synthesized user turn. If an integration permits a less-trusted party to supply those roles, its instructions gain authority relative to the prior encoding; such an integration was not established by the available evidence.
  • Low · reliability · observed: The size-based overflow classifier can convert a near-window malformed tool-schema error into a compaction signal. This weakens error discrimination at the recovery boundary; whether a subsequent compaction exposes the original error or affects retained history is unverified.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The authority change applies to requests whose caller supplies leading system-role content. Available source does not establish a new credential, tenant, network, or tool-execution boundary.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — A less-trusted caller that can supply system or developer roles could place instructions in the newly authoritative field. Whether any exposed integration grants that control to such a caller, or a downstream tool would act on it, remains unverified.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Credential resolution, account-host selection, and model-catalog lookup still precede request transmission. Failed tool results retain both a distinct tool role and an in-band failure marker.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — The overflow producer excludes failures after output begins and does not mutate conversation history before emitting its error event; recovery after that event is outside the verified path.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Where callers have different trust levels, establish role provenance before allowing their content into the authoritative instruction field; verify that compaction retries preserve instruction and tool-call identity and expose persistent schema errors.

리뷰 · 우선순위 63 / 80

이 PR은 Devin으로 대화를 보낼 때 막히던 네 가지를 고쳐요. #6092를 가져왔어요. 바탕은 dev가 아니에요. codex/rt5-devin-models이고, 그 가지는 #6172예요. #6172가 dev에 들어간 뒤에 이 PR의 바탕을 dev로 내려야 해요.

기록이 너무 길면 Cognition은 글 없이 invalid_argument만 돌려줘요. 도구 스키마가 나쁠 때와 같은 코드라서, Codex는 창이 꽉 찬 줄 모르고 다음 턴도 같이 막혀요. 이제는 출력이 없고, 센 크기가 고른 모델 창의 95% 이상일 때만 context_length_exceeded로 바꿔요. Codex는 이 코드를 보면 대화를 줄여요. 짧은 요청이 같은 코드를 받으면 400으로 남아요. 창을 모를 때는 글자 수가 약 52만 자를 넘을 때만 그렇게 봐요. 창 숫자는 고른 줄의 카탈로그 창이고, 설정에 더 작은 한도가 있으면 그중 가장 작은 값을 써요.

Gemini 모델은 도구 인자에 "type": ["string", "null"]처럼 타입을 배열로 적으면 매 턴 거절해요. Gemini 이름일 때만 그 배열을 anyOf 갈래로 바꿔요. items 같은 그 타입의 조건은 그 갈래에 남아요. 바깥 enum이나 const가 null을 빼면 null 갈래를 만들지 않아요. 바깥 not, oneOf, allOf는 null이 그 조건을 피하지 못하게 allOf로 같이 둬요. 다른 모델의 스키마는 그대로예요.

실패한 도구 결과는 글 앞의 ERROR:를 유지한 채, 전선 9번도 켜요. 9번만 켜면 Gemini만 실패로 읽고, swe와 gpt는 성공으로 읽었어요.

대화 맨 앞 system 글은 요청 2번 칸으로 가요. 대화 중간에 나온 system 글은 다음 사용자 말에 붙여요. 시스템 글만 있는 요청은 프롬프트가 비지 않게 사용자 말로 남아요. 라이브에서 2번 칸의 지시만으로도 모델이 따랐고, 캐시 비율은 그대로였어요.

리뷰에서 나온 두 가지도 이 머리에 들어 있어요. null 갈래가 바깥 not을 그냥 통과시키지 않아요. 도구 설명은 잘라 보낸 뒤의 글만 세서, 잘려 나간 긴 설명이 창 초과로 잡히지 않아요.

라인 - src/adapters/devin.ts 363행. 창은 카탈로그 값, modelContextWindows, contextWindow, modelMaxInputTokens 중 가장 작은 수예요. swe-1-6 실측은 카탈로그 창(약 20만)에서 거절이 났고, 출력 한도를 올려도 그 경계는 그대로였어요. 설정 한도가 더 작으면 모델은 아직 받는 길이인데 95%를 넘었다고 봐요. 그 길이에서 스키마가 나빠 invalid_argument가 오면 Codex는 오류 대신 대화를 줄여요. 테스트는 20만 창에 16만 한도가 있으면 16만을 고르게 해 두었어요.

라인 - src/adapters/devin/context-overflow.ts 38행. 그림 바이트는 세지 않아요. 스크린샷만으로 창이 꽉 차 invalid_argument가 나도 context_length_exceeded로 바뀌지 않아요. 그 세션은 다음 턴도 막혀요.

라인 - src/adapters/devin/context-overflow.ts 25행, 62행. 낱말 조각은 실측에서 진짜 토큰의 1.00배에서 1.54배였어요. 1.54배인 글은 진짜 토큰이 창의 약 62%만 차도 95% 칸을 넘어요. 60% 샘플은 안 걸린다는 측정과 맞아요. 그 바로 위부터는 스키마 오류도 압축으로 넘어갈 수 있어요. 본문은 95%에 걸린 나쁜 스키마를 한계로 적어 두었는데, 배수가 큰 글은 그 한계가 95%보다 앞에서 시작해요.

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

95% 규칙을 이대로 둘지예요. 긴 기록 위의 스키마 오류를 압축으로 읽는 대가예요. 설정 한도까지 그 기준을 낮출지는 별개의 선택이에요. 실측 경계는 카탈로그 창이에요.

#6092는 닫혀 있고 머지되지 않았어요. 이 PR이 그 수리를 대신해요. #6184가 이 브랜치 위에 쌓여 있어요. #6172가 먼저 dev에 들어가야 이 PR의 바탕을 dev로 바꿀 수 있어요.

테스트 네 샤드는 이 머리에서 통과했어요.

너의 추천

이 PR을 닫지 마세요. #6092는 이미 닫힌 원본이에요. types.ts와 config.ts를 나누는 일과는 다른 수리예요.

#6172가 머지된 뒤에 바탕을 dev로 바꾸세요. 363행의 분류 창은 고른 줄의 카탈로그 contextWindow로 두세요. 그림만으로 꽉 찬 기록은 본문에 적어 둔 스키마 한계 옆에 한 줄 남기세요. 그다음 #6184의 바탕을 이 커밋에 맞추세요.

…tory overflow

- Send the leading system text as GetChatMessage #2 instead of folding it into
  the first user prompt. Live on swe-1-6 with a ~6.7k-token system prompt the
  turn-2 cache ratio is unchanged (6688/6715 vs 7072/7097) and the prompt is
  smaller; swe-1-6, swe-2-medium, gemini and claude all obey #2.
- Mark failed tool results with ChatMessagePrompt #9 tool_result_is_error
  instead of an in-band "ERROR:" prefix.
- Rewrite JSON-Schema type arrays to anyOf in tool parameters for Gemini uids,
  which Cognition refuses with invalid_argument on every turn.
- Surface a pre-output invalid_argument on a history near or past the model's
  input window as context_length_exceeded so Codex compacts; small requests
  with the same code stay a plain 400.
- Correct the #15 (CortexTrajectoryReference), #17 prompt_id and #22
  execution_id comments.

…l-error marker

- Overflow: binary-searched live on swe-1-6 (200k window) the refusal sits at
  ~200-203k real tokens for prose and JSON alike, and a 32000 output cap does
  not move it. Characters per token ran 1.33-5.53 across samples, so the
  chars/4 estimate is replaced by a word-piece count (1.00-1.54x real) at 95%
  of the window: every sample at the window is caught, none at 60% is.
- Gemini schemas: `{type:[T,"null"], ...}` becomes anyOf branches that carry
  the type-specific keywords (items, properties, ...); an existing anyOf is
  folded in rather than nested under allOf. Draft-7 `dependencies` is walked as
  a schema map with name lists left as data.
- Tool errors keep the in-band ERROR: marker beside #9: with a neutral result
  flagged as an error only gemini reported a failure; swe-1-6, gpt-6-sol-low
  and gpt-5-6-luna-low read it as success.
- A request with only system text keeps it as a user prompt instead of
  sending no prompts.
- Docs: describe the context_length_exceeded reclassification beside the
  allowDevinInvalidArgument recovery option.

(cherry picked from commit d84edae)
Folding each existing anyOf branch into the outer keywords let a branch
override a contradicting outer keyword, so `{maxLength: 5, anyOf:
[{maxLength: 50}]}` loosened to 50. On any such disagreement, keep both
constraints under allOf instead; live, gemini-3-8-flash-medium accepts
allOf.

…m prompt

The example still showed the leading system messages folded into the
first user turn, which now travel in request #2. Show a mid-conversation
system run instead, with the real blank-line join, and note that a
system-only request passes through whole.

…are disjoint

When no existing anyOf branch shared a type with the type array, the
fallback kept the anyOf and dropped the type union, so the branches
admitted types the node never allowed. Keep both under allOf, the same
form the conflict path uses; live, gemini-3-8-flash-medium accepts it.

🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

The overflow estimate runs a global regex over the full history on every qualifying error.

requestText joins every message, and matchAll(WORD_PIECE) then walks a string that can be several MB long. This work runs only on the invalid_argument pre-output error path, so the cost is bounded to one pass per failed turn. It is acceptable at the current scale. You can add an early exit when pieces reaches the threshold. That stops the walk on very large histories.

♻️ Early exit
-  let pieces = 0;
-  for (const _ of text.matchAll(WORD_PIECE)) pieces++;
-  return pieces >= input.contextWindow * WINDOW_SHARE;
+  const threshold = input.contextWindow * WINDOW_SHARE;
+  let pieces = 0;
+  for (const _ of text.matchAll(WORD_PIECE)) if (++pieces >= threshold) return true;
+  return false;
