Closes: # 630

Description

This PR completes the incremental transcript-delivery work proposed in #630 and builds on the state-push throttling from #1078.

Throttling reduced how often large task state was sent, but every update and hydration could still serialize and transfer the complete transcript. For long-running tasks, that payload remains large enough to exhaust the webview renderer and produce a gray screen.

The implementation introduces a dedicated, task-scoped transcript transport:

Sends new and changed transcript entries as sequenced append/update deltas instead of replacing the full clineMessages array.
Removes transcript data from generic extension-state messages so unrelated state updates cannot repeatedly retransmit or overwrite chat history.
Hydrates and resynchronizes transcripts using atomic snapshots split into chunks of 200 messages, avoiding one unbounded initial-load payload.
Serializes transcript posts through a provider-level queue and invalidates stale queued work when the focused task changes.
Uses task IDs and monotonic per-task sequence numbers to reject stale, duplicate, out-of-order, or background-task messages.
Detects sequence gaps, malformed or incomplete snapshots, and updates for unknown messages, then requests one authoritative resync from the extension host.
Routes initial webview launch, task switches, checkpoint rewinds, transcript overwrites, and legacy unsequenced updates through the snapshot/resync path.
Updates task, provider, message-handler, context, and shared test helpers to use the new protocol while preserving message persistence and event ordering.

The steady-state payload is now O(1) per append/update rather than O(N) in transcript length. Full recovery remains available, but it is transferred in bounded chunks and applied only after the complete snapshot has been validated.

This aligns with Zoo Code's Reliability First roadmap goal by keeping long-running chats responsive and making transcript synchronization deterministic and self-healing across webview reloads and task switches.

Reviewer focus areas:

Ordering and invalidation behavior when task changes race with queued transcript posts.
Sequence-gap recovery and atomic snapshot application in the webview.
Transcript/message event ordering relied on by task consumers.

Test Procedure

Run the focused extension-host regression suites:

pnpm --dir src exec vitest run \
  __tests__/single-open-invariant.spec.ts \
  core/task/__tests__/Task.persistence.spec.ts \
  core/task/__tests__/Task.spec.ts \
  core/webview/__tests__/ClineProvider.spec.ts \
  core/webview/__tests__/webviewMessageHandler.spec.ts

Result: 5 test files passed, 356 tests passed.

Run the focused webview regression suites:

pnpm --dir webview-ui exec vitest run \
  src/context/__tests__/ExtensionStateContext.spec.tsx \
  src/components/chat/__tests__/ChatView.clear-approval-buttons.spec.tsx \
  src/components/chat/__tests__/ChatView.notification-sound.spec.tsx \
  src/components/chat/__tests__/ChatView.scroll-debug-repro.spec.tsx \
  src/components/chat/__tests__/ChatView.spec.tsx

Result: 5 test files passed, 69 tests passed.

Run package type checks:

pnpm --dir src run check-types
pnpm --dir webview-ui run check-types

Result: Both type checks passed.

Run ESLint with suppression pruning for every changed extension-host and webview source/test file:

pnpm --dir src exec eslint --prune-suppressions --max-warnings=0 <changed-src-file>
pnpm --dir webview-ui exec eslint --prune-suppressions --max-warnings=0 <changed-webview-file>

Result: All changed source and test files passed with no suppression-count increase.

Manual verification for reviewers:

Open or restore a task with a large transcript.
Confirm the transcript appears after chunked hydration and the panel remains responsive.
Continue the task and verify new and streaming messages appear once, in order, without full transcript replacement.
Switch rapidly between tasks and confirm messages from the previous task do not appear in the focused task.
Restore a checkpoint or edit/delete history and verify the transcript is replaced by one complete, ordered snapshot.
Reload the webview and confirm the active task transcript reconstructs without duplication or a gray screen.

Does this PR necessitate updates to user-facing documentation?

No documentation updates are required.
Yes, documentation updates are required. (Please describe what needs to be updated or link to a PR in the docs repository).

Additional Notes

This PR addresses transcript transport cost and synchronization. It does not compact the persisted ui_messages.json representation or remove large fields from individual messages; those are complementary storage concerns outside this issue's scope.
Generic state messages intentionally remain metadata-only. Transcript snapshots are assembled off-state and committed atomically after validation, so partially received snapshots never replace the visible conversation.
No changeset or changelog entry is included, per repository policy.
AI assistance materially contributed to implementation and PR preparation. I reviewed and understand the meaningful changes and verified them with the tests and checks listed above.

Walkthrough

The PR separates transcript transport from generic state updates. It adds task-scoped sequencing, chunked snapshots, incremental message delivery, webview resynchronization, task-focus synchronization, and corresponding provider, task, context, and test coverage.

Changes

Transcript synchronization

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Transcript transport contracts `packages/types/src/vscode-extension-host.ts`	Adds append, update, snapshot, and resynchronization message types with task, sequence, and snapshot metadata.
Provider transcript transport `src/core/webview/ClineProvider.ts`, `src/core/webview/webviewMessageHandler.ts`, `src/core/webview/__tests__/*`, `src/__tests__/helpers/provider-stub.ts`, `src/__tests__/single-open-invariant.spec.ts`	Separates transcript messages from generic state messages. Adds serialized per-task deltas, chunked snapshots, generation guards, focused-task synchronization, CLI compatibility, and resynchronization handling.
Task lifecycle integration `src/core/task/Task.ts`, `src/core/task/__tests__/*`	Uses targeted append and update messages during task execution, and snapshots during task initialization and history resume.
Webview reconciliation and test support `webview-ui/src/context/`, `webview-ui/src/utils/test-utils.tsx`, `webview-ui/src/components/chat/__tests__/`	Validates transcript snapshots and contiguous deltas, requests resynchronization on invalid sequences, resets state on task changes, and updates test hydration utilities and fixtures.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 27380

Concurrent transcript edits can interrupt request handling, and stale partial updates can force extra transcript recovery. These should be fixed before merge.

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 50.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 2 functions across 19 files. (1 skipped: 1 unsupported.)

Full details: Regression Evidence

Explanation

The new transcript transport has focused provider, task, context, and resync-handler tests. However, three changed handler routes lack focused regression assertions. webviewMessageHandler.ts now routes webviewDidLaunch and clearTask through syncFocusedTaskToWebview({ includeTaskHistory: true }), which must publish a transcript snapshot. The corresponding tests only assert that some post occurred or that postStateToWebview was called; those tests also pass if the handler uses the old state-only route. updatePrompt now uses postStateToWebviewWithoutClineMessages(), but its test only checks the updated prompt state. It does not use a non-empty transcript or assert that the generic state message omits transcript fields. The provider tests cover syncFocusedTaskToWebview and metadata stripping in isolation, but they do not prove that these handler branches invoke the new behavior. No Playwright snapshot is required because the change does not introduce a durable static UI rendering change.

Resolution

Add focused handler-level regression tests. For webviewDidLaunch and clearTask, spy on syncFocusedTaskToWebview and assert the exact { includeTaskHistory: true } call. Also assert the resulting integration path publishes the snapshot markers. For updatePrompt, populate a task with transcript messages, assert postStateToWebviewWithoutClineMessages is called, and assert the emitted generic state excludes clineMessages and clineMessagesSeq. Keep the existing provider and context transport tests.

Full details: Trust And Persistence Invariants

Explanation

The new transcript queue can retain unbounded work across webview teardown. postClineMessageAppended and postClineMessageUpdated clone each message before adding an operation to clineMessagesPostQueue (ClineProvider.ts:1496-1541). Each operation awaits postMessageToWebview, which awaits the webview's postMessage (ClineProvider.ts:1454-1471). The queue has no size limit, cancellation, or timeout. dispose() cancels the state debounce but does not cancel or invalidate this queue (ClineProvider.ts:817-824), and sidebar disposal only clears webview resources (ClineProvider.ts:1098-1110). If streaming continues while the renderer is slow or stalled, then the webview closes or focus changes, every subsequent cloned delta remains linked through the pending promise chain. Generation checks only skip operations after they run; they do not release queued closures. This can retain transcript messages and task references for the provider lifetime and grow memory during the gray-screen scenario.

Resolution

Make transcript posting cancellable and bounded. Store queued operations in an explicit queue with cancellation tokens and settle/remove pending entries when transport generation changes, when clearWebviewResources() runs, and when dispose() runs. Add a timeout or abort path around each awaited webview post so one stalled post cannot block the entire queue. Coalesce or drop superseded invalidated deltas instead of retaining one closure per update. Ensure all canceled callers receive a settled promise and release cloned message and task references.

Add a test for the failed-recovery path.

This test proves that a single gap produces one resync request. It does not cover what happens after the resync answer fails or never arrives. That is the discriminating case for the resyncPendingRef guard flagged in webview-ui/src/context/ExtensionStateContext.tsx Lines 337-348.

Add a case that requests a resync, then feeds an invalid snapshot for the same task (for example a chunk whose snapshotStartIndex does not match), then dispatches a further contiguous delta. Assert that the context either recovers or issues a second resync request.

As per path instructions: "For regressions, add the test at the lowest layer that would have failed".

Prune clineMessagesSeqByTaskId when a task is removed or deleted.

The map gains one entry per task id and never loses one. A long editor session that opens many tasks keeps every entry for the lifetime of the provider. The entries are small, so this is growth rather than a leak of transcript data, but the PR targets memory growth in this exact path.

Delete the entry in removeClineFromStack() and deleteTaskWithId(), or store the sequence on the focused task instead of a provider-level map.
