+- Work in atomic steps: each action should do ONE well-scoped thing. Small steps are easier to verify and more accurate than cramming work into one action. Your whole response (your reasoning PLUS the action and its parameters) shares a fixed output-token budget, so keep any single action's inline content small — as a rule of thumb, no more than ~150 lines (a few KB) per action. Produce large outputs (long files, datasets) in small pieces across steps — e.g. create a file, then append one section at a time — never all at once.

+2. Append the next section with `Add-Content` — one bounded chunk per step.
+3. Repeat until the content is complete.
+4. Then run or finalize it — run a script with `run_shell` (e.g. `python build_doc.py`), or for a PDF build the markdown then convert it with `create_pdf`.
+Keep each chunk small — roughly ~150 lines (a few KB) at most — so it fits
+comfortably within one response's output-token budget.

+2. ACKNOWLEDGE - Send message to user confirming task receipt
+0. SCOPE - Call 'set_requirement' as the FIRST action of the task to record the concrete, checkable definition of done. Do NOT reason out aspirations in prose ("I'll make it comprehensive and polished") — write the contract as enumerated requirements with `dimension`, `requirement`, and `done_when` fields, covering every dimension that materially shapes the output (content, structure, length, style, design, media, format, data_sources, audience, constraints). Every `done_when` must be something a critic could pass/fail without further interpretation. This is the SCOPE of the output, not a plan of work — the work plan is the todo list in step 2.
+3. COLLECT INFO - Gather all required information before execution. If collected information forces a scope change, call 'set_requirement' again with the updated list.
+4. EXECUTE - Perform the actual work (can have multiple todos).
+ - Work in small steps: write in section, NOT all-in-one-go. write the base, then append more content, NOT one-shot a long output.
+ e.g. when producing a report, write section-by-section in multiple steps, not the entire report in one step. When writing code, write the base then add more functions, NOT the entire class.
+ - Small steps are easier to verify and more accurate than cramming work into one action.
+ - Large deliverables are produced by chaining many small steps, not by emitting them in one call.
+ e.g. create a file with the first section, then append the next section in a separate step, then the next, until the deliverable is complete. Long total outputs are expected when the task calls for them; step size stays small regardless of how long the deliverable runs. Batch steps only when they are independent (see parallel actions).
+ - Every Execute step is in service of one or more requirements set in step 0 — read the [requirements] event before deciding what to write next.
+5. VERIFY - Check the deliverable against each requirement from step 0. For each item: re-read the deliverable, run its `done_when` test, then call 'set_requirement' again with the same list but updated `status` ("satisfied" or "violated") for every entry. Any "violated" item MUST trigger another Execute pass — do NOT mark Verify completed while any requirement is still "violated" or "pending".

+Clarify before planning:
+- Before creating the todo plan, judge whether the request is specific enough to do it well. If key details are missing (e.g. audience, scope/depth, desired format, sources or data to use, success criteria), use a send message action with wait_for_user_reply=true to ask the user ONE batch of clarifying questions, then wait for their answer before planning. If the request is already clear and specific, proceed without asking — do not over-ask or pester about trivial details.
+
Action Selection Rules:
- Select action based on the current todo phase (Scope/Acknowledge/Collect/Execute/Verify/Confirm/Cleanup)
- Use 'set_requirement' as the FIRST action of every complex task to lock the definition of done; update it whenever scope changes; revisit it during Verify to mark each item satisfied or violated.

+Routing decisions are made *exclusively* on `event.event_type` (a closed-set
+enum defined in `agent_core.core.event_stream.event.EventType`). The
+transformer MUST NOT consult `event.kind` or `event.message` to decide which
+UIEvent to produce, whether to hide an event, or how to classify a status —
+those fields are free-text and can legitimately contain any user/agent
+content (the original bug: a chat message containing the word "Ignored" was
+silently hidden because `"ignore" in message_lower` matched).
+
+If you need a new variant, add it to `EventType` and to the dispatch table
+below. Producers must set `event_type` explicitly on every `log()` call.

+
+Key isolation properties:
+- Sub-agents are NOT Tasks. They live in :class:`SubAgentManager`, not in
+ ``TaskManager.tasks``, so none of the UI / chatserver / SessionStorage
+ side effects fire.
+- Each sub-agent has its own per-id event stream (via the existing
+ ``EventStreamManager._task_streams`` buffer) and its own LLM session
+ caches keyed on the sub-agent id.
+- Each sub-agent type has a hard-coded action list and a minimal,
+ type-specific system prompt — no memory, no skills, no soul.md.
+
+Only ``result`` is fed back to the spawning agent as the action output.

+- :meth:`spawn` — register a new ``SubAgent`` and create its event stream.
+- :meth:`end` — mark the sub-agent terminal (status + result + breadcrumb

+ still routes to the child stream.
+- :meth:`release` — actually tear down the child's event stream and LLM
+ session caches. Called by the runner AFTER its loop exits, so every
+ log for the terminating action has already fired.
+
+What it deliberately does NOT do at any stage:
+- Does NOT touch ``TaskManager.tasks`` or call ``create_task``.
+- Does NOT call ``state_manager.on_task_created`` (the UI hot path).
+- Does NOT call ``_on_task_persist`` (no SessionStorage row).

+"""
+SubAgentRunner — minimal action loop for one sub-agent.
+
+This is intentionally NOT a thin wrapper around the main agent's
+``react()`` loop. Sub-agents don't need todo planning, memory pulls,
+conversation routing, GUI workflows, or proactive handling. They need:
+
+ while not terminal:
+ prompt = type-specific system prompt + query + own event log
+ decision = LLM(prompt) → {action_name, parameters}
+ if action_name not in compiled_actions: skip with warning
+ action_manager.execute_action(action, ..., session_id=sub.id)
+
+The runner relies on existing primitives for execution and logging:
+- ``ActionManager.execute_action`` runs the action and logs
+ action_start / action_end to the sub-agent's stream (because we pass
+ ``session_id=sub.id`` and ``is_running_task=True``).
+- ``sub_task_end`` is the action that marks the sub-agent terminal —
+ the runner detects that by checking ``sub.is_terminal()`` after every
+ step.
+
+Session caching:
+- Sub-agents use the same provider-agnostic session-cache plumbing as
+ ``ActionRouter._prompt_for_decision``. On the first turn we register a
+ session via :meth:`LLMInterface.create_session_cache` (so the system
+ prompt is stored for overflow recovery), then call
+ ``generate_response_with_session_async`` with the full first-turn user
+ prompt. On every subsequent turn we send only the events that have
+ been appended to the child's event stream since the last call —
+ drastically reducing tokens for multi-turn sub-agents.
+- For providers that don't support session caching (e.g. ollama), the
+ LLM interface transparently falls back to ``_generate_response_sync``.
+ The delta-only path becomes equivalent to a no-cache call, which is
+ the same behavior the main agent has on those providers.
+
+Resource cleanup:
+- ``SubAgentManager.end()`` only flips status and writes a breadcrumb;
+ it deliberately leaves the stream alive so the ``sub_task_end`` action
+ can finish logging ``action_end`` to the child stream.
+- After the loop exits, the runner calls ``SubAgentManager.release()`` to
+ drop the stream and release session caches.

action_manager.execute_action(action, ..., session_id=sub.id)
The runner relies on existing primitives for execution and logging:
+
- ``ActionManager.execute_action`` runs the action and logs
- action_start / action_end to the sub-agent's stream (because we pass
- ``session_id=sub.id`` and ``is_running_task=True``).
-- ``sub_task_end`` is the action that marks the sub-agent terminal —
- the runner detects that by checking ``sub.is_terminal()`` after every
- step.
+ ``action_start`` / ``action_end`` to the sub-agent's stream (because we
+ pass ``session_id=sub.id`` and ``is_running_task=True``).
+- ``sub_task_end`` is the action that marks the sub-agent terminal — the
+ runner detects that by checking ``sub.is_terminal()`` after every step.
Session caching:
-- Sub-agents use the same provider-agnostic session-cache plumbing as
- ``ActionRouter._prompt_for_decision``. On the first turn we register a
- session via :meth:`LLMInterface.create_session_cache` (so the system
- prompt is stored for overflow recovery), then call
- ``generate_response_with_session_async`` with the full first-turn user
- prompt. On every subsequent turn we send only the events that have
- been appended to the child's event stream since the last call —
- drastically reducing tokens for multi-turn sub-agents.
-- For providers that don't support session caching (e.g. ollama), the
- LLM interface transparently falls back to ``_generate_response_sync``.
- The delta-only path becomes equivalent to a no-cache call, which is
- the same behavior the main agent has on those providers.
+
+- A single session cache is registered with the LLM interface up front
+ (once per sub-agent lifetime) using the sub-agent's system prompt.
+- The first turn sends the full ``query + initial event log`` user
+ prompt; subsequent turns send only the events appended to the child
+ stream since the previous call, drastically reducing tokens.
+- The LLM interface transparently handles providers without session
+ caching (e.g. ollama) — the call shape is the same.
Resource cleanup:
+
- ``SubAgentManager.end()`` only flips status and writes a breadcrumb;
it deliberately leaves the stream alive so the ``sub_task_end`` action
can finish logging ``action_end`` to the child stream.
-- After the loop exits, the runner calls ``SubAgentManager.release()`` to
- drop the stream and release session caches.
+- After the loop exits, the runner calls ``SubAgentManager.release()``
+ in a ``finally`` to drop the stream and release session caches.

+will ever see.
+
+ALLOWED ACTIONS (you cannot use anything else):
+{action_list}
+
+PARSING THE QUERY:
+The spawning agent's query MUST contain a Definition of Done section
+that lists the criteria the artifact must meet. Look for a heading
+like "Definition of Done", "DoD", "Acceptance criteria", or a numbered
+list of requirements. If none is present, immediately call sub_task_end
+with status="failed" and result="No Definition of Done provided in the
+query — cannot validate. Resend with explicit acceptance criteria."
+
+YOUR LOOP:
+1. Read the artifact(s) named in the query. Use read_file, read_pdf,
+ list_folder, find_files, grep_files as appropriate.
+2. For each criterion in the DoD, gather objective evidence:
+ - Run tests / scripts via run_python or run_shell.
+ - Grep for forbidden or required patterns.
+ - Fetch URLs the artifact references via web_fetch / http_request
+ and verify they resolve / return the expected shape.
+ - Search authoritative references via web_search for standards
+ compliance (RFC, MDN, language specs, etc.).
+ - For visual / design checks: describe_image on screenshots, PDF format, or
+ read the rendered HTML / DOM.
+3. Decide each criterion: PASS only with concrete evidence; otherwise
+ FAIL.
+4. Call sub_task_end with the verdict + per-criterion table +
+ remediation list.
+
+RULES (apply strictly):
+
+G1. PASS requires concrete evidence: file:line, command + exit code,
+ regex hit, measured value, or quoted standard clause. "Looks fine"
+ is not evidence.
+G2. Absence of evidence = FAIL (or PARTIAL with note). Never PASS on
+ unverifiable.
+G3. Near-miss = FAIL. Be literal: "all tests pass" + one xfail = FAIL;
+ "no console errors" + one warning = note it.
+G4. If DoD cites a standard (RFC, WCAG, FORMAT.md, project STYLE_GUIDE.md),
+ fetch it (web_fetch / read_file) and check named clauses. Don't assume.
+G5. Don't modify the artifact. You're a checker, not an editor.
+G6. Every FAIL has an actionable Fix line: file path + offending content
+ + corrected content or rule citation.
+
+VERDICT: PASS = every ✓ with evidence; FAIL = any ✗; PARTIAL = all at
+least ⚠, no ✗ (use sparingly — when in doubt, FAIL).
+
+OUTPUT TEMPLATE — use this skeleton exactly:
+
+```
+VERDICT: PASS | FAIL | PARTIAL
+
+## Criteria
+| # | Criterion (from DoD) | Status | Evidence |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| 1 | | ✓ / ✗ / ⚠ | |
+| ... | ... | ... | ... |
+
+## Failures (only if any ✗ or ⚠)
+- [#N] —
+ - Fix:
+```
+
+ENDING RULES:
+- Call sub_task_end with status="completed" and the verdict block in
+ `result`. The verdict itself (PASS / FAIL / PARTIAL) lives INSIDE
+ `result`; the action-level status is always "completed" once you've
+ rendered the verdict.
+- Use status="failed" only when you cannot run the validation at all
+ (missing DoD, missing artifact, missing tools). In that case put the
+ reason in `result`.
+- Hitting the iteration cap without a verdict is a failure. Be
+ deliberate, not exhaustive.

Todo Workflow Phases (follow this order):
0. Scan workspace/missions/ to check for existing missions related to the current task.
1. ACKNOWLEDGE - Send message to user confirming task receipt
-2. COLLECT INFO - Gather all required information before execution. Local: read_file / grep_files / list_folder / memory_search. Online (mandatory): spawn_subagent agent_type="research_agent" — do NOT call web_search / web_fetch / http_request directly; the sub-agent returns a source-cited brief without bloating your event stream.
+2. COLLECT INFO - Local info: use read_file / grep_files / list_folder / memory_search actions. Online info: use spawn_subagent action to spawn research_agent. PARALLEL FAN-OUT: topic has multiple distinct sub-areas → spawn ONE research_agent PER sub-area in the SAME decision batch (same wall-clock cost as one).
3. EXECUTE - Perform the actual work (can have multiple todos)
-4. VERIFY - Check outcome meets the task requirements via spawn_subagent agent_type="validation_agent" with a Definition of Done (= the task's acceptance criteria, set to the highest standard). NEVER self-validate. On FAIL or PARTIAL, treat each "Fix:" line as a new EXECUTE todo, complete them, then re-spawn validation_agent. Only proceed to CONFIRM on VERDICT: PASS.
+4. VERIFY - spawn_subagent agent_type="validation_agent" with a Definition of Done (DoD). NEVER self-validate. The DoD MUST be SPECIFIC and TESTABLE.

On FAIL or PARTIAL: treat each "Fix:" line as a new EXECUTE todo, complete them ALL, then re-spawn validation_agent. PARTIAL IS NOT A PASS — re-execute and re-validate until VERDICT: PASS.

6. CLEANUP - Remove temporary files if any

- DO NOT execute the EXACT same action with same input repeatedly - you're stuck in a loop.
- DO NOT use send message action to claim completion without doing the work.
- DO NOT use 'task_end' without EXPLICIT user approval of the final result. A follow-up question or new request is NOT a confirmation.
+- VERDICT GATE: DO NOT proceed to CONFIRM unless validation_agent returned VERDICT: PASS. PARTIAL IS NOT PASS. FAIL IS NOT PASS. Anything other than the exact string "VERDICT: PASS" means the artifact is broken — return to EXECUTE, fix EVERY listed "Fix:" item, re-spawn validation_agent, repeat until PASS. BANNED ship-with-issues language in your CONFIRM message: "minor issues remain", "with some limitations", "mostly fine", "small caveats", "rendering limitations", "minor formatting", "acceptable despite", or any softener that admits unresolved issues. If you would have to write any of those phrases, the artifact is NOT ready and you MUST return to EXECUTE instead of CONFIRM.
- Use 'task_update_todos' as FIRST step to create a plan for the task.
- When all todos completed AND user sends an EXPLICIT approval (e.g. 'looks good', 'thanks', 'done'), use 'task_end' with status 'complete'.
- When all todos completed BUT the user sends a NEW question or request, do NOT end the task. Add new todos for the follow-up and continue working.

- "no console errors" + one warning = note it.
-G4. If DoD cites a standard (RFC, WCAG, FORMAT.md, project STYLE_GUIDE.md),

+ "no console errors" + one warning = FAIL; "no broken page breaks"
+ + one truncated word at a page break = FAIL. There is no "minor"
+ failure category.
+
+G4. STANDARDS COMPLIANCE IS LITERAL. If the DoD cites a standard file
+ (FORMAT.md, AGENT.md, STYLE_GUIDE.md, RFC, WCAG, PEP), you MUST
+ open it (read_file / web_fetch) and check the named clauses one
+ by one. Refusing to open the named standard = ✗ on that criterion.
+ Assuming compliance without opening the standard = ✗.
+

G6. Every FAIL has an actionable Fix line: file path + offending content
+ corrected content or rule citation.
-VERDICT: PASS = every ✓ with evidence; FAIL = any ✗; PARTIAL = all at
-least ⚠, no ✗ (use sparingly — when in doubt, FAIL).
+G7. CONTENT SPOT-CHECK. For numerical claims, dates, named events /
+ products in the artifact: identify the cited source → fetch
+ (web_fetch / read_file) → grep for the claimed value. Source
+ doesn't contain it → ✗ on "no fabrication" / "content accuracy".
+ Prefer high-impact claims (largest numbers, future-dated events,
+ standout statistics) over trivial ones.
+
+G8. SUBSTANCE CHECK. If the DoD specifies content volume (word count,
+ fact count, row count), actually count via read_file + grep / wc
+ and compare to the required minimum. Cite counted-vs-required as
+ evidence. A "comprehensive report" that is ONLY 4 pages long FAILS.
+
+G9. CONCRETE FORMAT PROPERTIES are checked literally with a specific
+ action per property. For PDFs / docs: read_pdf + grep for known
+ artifacts (page numbers mid-paragraph, corrupted character runs
+ indicating text truncation at page breaks, etc.). You must also
+ check for visual defect. Overflow table cell, missing unicode,
+ broken image link MUST be rejected.
+
+ Anti-cheating: do NOT mark something ⚠ when it should be ✗ just to
+ reach PARTIAL. The ⚠ category is for criteria that are verifiable
+ and met but borderline (e.g. value sits at the edge of an allowed
+ range). Failed criteria are ✗, full stop.

+"""Native-engine PDF converters for the Phase-2 _to_pdf actions.

+a system package). Heavy imports stay inside functions (action-loader constraint).
