- Around line 284-285: The TaskStore currently retains terminal records
indefinitely and rewrites/scans the full ledger as history grows. Add bounded
compaction in TaskStore::open and after terminal completion in TaskStore::finish
or maintain_tasks, removing only records with persisted terminal receipts whose
execution deadlines plus the configured grace period have passed; preserve newer
terminal records for late callbacks and idempotent receipt replays, and ensure
the compacted state is persisted consistently.
In `@tests/relayflows/cases/1766-durable-task-receipt/engine-fixture.mjs`:
- Around line 68-75: Preserve the original WebSocket length indicator before
resolving extended lengths in the frame-parsing logic, and validate that
indicator rather than the overwritten 16-bit payload length. Update the
variables around the buffer length handling so valid indicator 126 frames with a
127-byte payload are accepted while indicator 127 remains rejected.

…ted task records Addresses the two still-open Cursor Bugbot findings from this PR's review (the other 6 were already fixed by earlier commits in this branch, confirmed by re-reading current code against each finding): - "Deadline path leaves worker running": handle_task_reply's deadline branch called fail_task, which only persisted a final_result and re-sent Accept -- it never stopped the worker generation. Once final_result is set, maintain_tasks's expired-claimed sweep (which filters on final_result.is_none()) permanently excludes that record, so the worker kept running until an independent failed receipt arrived from the engine, or forever if the broker disconnected first. fail_task now stops the generation itself using the record queue_final already returns; stop_task_generation is a no-op if the worker was never spawned or already stopped, so this is safe for every fail_task call site (pre-launch validation failures included). - "Rejected tasks never leave the ledger": terminal_record_expired required receipt.is_some(), but reject() only ever sets rejection, never receipt, so a rejected invocation (stale_task_execution, task_not_found, task_result_conflict) could never satisfy the expiry check and compact() never removed it -- unbounded ledger growth. Now checks receipt.is_some() || rejection.is_some(). Both fixes are covered by regression tests that fail without them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

A hosted task invocation must remain running after worker registration and readiness. This adds an opt-in persistent
task.runprovider that launches only after a fenced durable acceptance, stores final callback output before sending it, and returns callback success only after the matching engine terminal receipt is stored locally.Depends on AgentWorkforce/relaycast#436 (wire contract reviewed at
c80202f2dfe7a15a6cef5b81f2452b1d7acd6add). Refs #1766. This is dependency 2 in the engine → broker → Flows adapter sequence; AgentWorkforce/flows#397 follows against this contract. No unpublished registry dependency is assumed or added.AGENT_RELAY_TASK_PROVIDER=1with persistent hosted mode.Validation on macOS arm64 with Rust/Cargo 1.94.0:

GIT_CONFIG_*/RELAY_ATTEST_*variables removed only from the test subprocess. The first unisolated run failed five unchanged Git-hook fixtures because those host settings injected an unrelated hook/session; fixtures retain their own hook setup and no tests were skipped to pass. The five existing ignores are two external harness executable tests, two pre-existing Relaycast API fixture tests, and one PTY doctest. Linux, Windows, and cross-target CI remain for the PR checks.Rollout requires deploying the Relaycast task engine first, then a broker containing this change with the provider explicitly enabled, then the Flows adapter. Only one global
task.runprovider is enabled per workspace. Disconnected providers cannot immediately observe deadline expiry, and an unknown worker process is never claimed to have stopped. No merge, deployment, package publication, or preview completion proof is included in this PR. Seespecs/durable-task-provider.mdfor callback retry and storage recovery behavior.Review findings

Now checksreceipt.is_some() || rejection.is_some().RelayFlow Proof
feature1766-durable-task-receiptThe external case launches the supplied exact base/head broker against a loopback engine wire fixture. Base returns
handler_unavailablefortask.run; head waits for acceptance, emits a fenced explicit failure, and reconciles its terminal receipt after SIGKILL and a lost final acknowledgment. The case deliberately omits the CLI to trigger a real provider failure without a model launch. Both local arm runners and the repository manifest/observation validators passed. CI must still attest and execute the Linux broker artifacts in the Cloud proof environment; this does not claim a deployed engine or successful LLM output proof.Note
High Risk
Introduces durable task execution, fleet wire contract changes, and callback acknowledgment tied to engine receipts—core orchestration and duplicate-launch prevention paths that depend on persistent state and Relaycast engine behavior.
Overview
Adds an opt-in durable
task.runprovider (envAGENT_RELAY_TASK_PROVIDER=1, persistent hosted broker only) that advertises a global task capability and runs invocations through acceptance, fenced worker generations, and engine receipts instead of treating spawn readiness as completion.Wire and protocol: Fleet wire gains
action.accept, optionaltask_executionon invokes, and task-scoped fields onaction.result(final,execution_id,worker_generation,accounting). Node registration markstask.runwithexecution_mode: "task". Correlatedtask_receipt_*replies/errors are routed to the runtime instead of agent-registration waiters.Durability and lifecycle: A new
TaskStoreledger persists invocations, launch claims, final callback outbox, and terminal receipts with atomic writes and pruning after deadline + 24h grace. The runtime sends accept/result frames, launches workers only after a durablerunningreceipt, binds callback tokens to generations, retries lost ACKs via maintenance, and maps/api/agent-resultto 503 retryable or 409 conflict when receipts are pending or outcomes disagree.Workers: Spawns can use a preclaimed UUID generation and
stop_task_generationtears down task workers without ordinary supervisor restart.Existing short spawn actions and non-task result callbacks are unchanged when the provider is off. Spec and a RelayFlow case document rollout and prove fenced failure survives broker restart.
