What this changes

Hardens the VS Code Language Model provider (notably GitHub Copilot serving Anthropic Claude) against three failure modes.

1. Surrogate sanitization

A lone UTF-16 surrogate cannot be encoded as UTF-8, so the backend rejects the entire request with a 400. sanitizeSurrogates() replaces unpaired surrogates with U+FFFD while preserving valid pairs (emoji, CJK ext.). Applied to string messages, tool results, and text parts.

2. Leaked tool-call recovery (wrapped markup only)

Some backends stream a tool call as raw function-call XML instead of emitting a structured LanguageModelToolCallPart, leaving the turn with no tool_use block and stalling the task in a "no tools used" retry loop. extractLeakedToolCalls() and trailingPartialToolMarkerLength() detect the markup mid-stream (including markers split across chunk boundaries) and replay it as a real tool call.

Scope is deliberately narrow, and the following bounds are part of the design rather than gaps to be closed later:

  • Only wrapped markup is recovered. An <invoke> is recoverable only inside an open <function_calls> wrapper. A bare, unwrapped <invoke> is deliberately passed through as text and is not recovered.
  • Only offered tools. The <invoke> name must match a tool actually offered that turn, and only when tools were offered at all.
  • The wrapper is a heuristic, not a security boundary. It reduces false positives on markup the model merely quotes; it is not an authentication or trust mechanism and should not be relied on as one.
  • Recovered parameters are converted using the tool's declared top-level parameter schema (array/object/number/integer/boolean, plus nullable unions). This is a narrow top-level conversion, not full JSON Schema validation: nested shapes are not validated, and a value that fails to parse or does not match its declared type fails closed, leaving the text unrecovered.

3. Window-safe tool_result truncation

Copilot's backend trims over-window requests without preserving tool_use/tool_result pairing, orphaning a tool_result and causing a 400 (unexpected tool_use_id). truncateToolResultsToFitWindow() and middleOutTruncate() shrink oversized tool_result payloads on our side (largest first, middle-out, pairing preserved) before sending.

The budget guard is approximate and does not guarantee a token-accurate fit. It is a character-based estimate (VSCODE_LM_BUDGET_CHARS_PER_TOKEN = 3, VSCODE_LM_INPUT_BUDGET_FRACTION = 0.8), chosen because a real tokenizer pass would have to run over every message on every turn. Because each tool_result retains MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS, a conversation dominated by non-tool_result content can remain over budget after trimming; that case now surfaces an explicit, actionable error instead of silently sending an oversized request.

Adaptations made during the port

  • vscode-lm-format.ts had diverged from upstream, so insertion points were re-derived against the local structure.
  • Log strings rebranded to "Zoo Code".
  • The upstream PR's TEMP console.warn diagnostics (Task.ts, multi-search-replace.ts, ApplyDiffTool.ts) and its version bump were deliberately excluded.

Files changed

Source and tests only:

  • src/api/transform/vscode-lm-format.ts
  • src/api/providers/vscode-lm.ts
  • src/api/transform/__tests__/vscode-lm-format.spec.ts
  • src/api/providers/__tests__/vscode-lm.spec.ts

No changeset file is included, and no build/tooling configuration is modified.

Verification

Validation was re-run under the repository's pinned toolchain (Node 22.23.1, pnpm 10.8.1, Vitest 4.1.9, ESLint 9.39.4) and passes:

  • src/api/providers/__tests__/vscode-lm.spec.ts: 114/114 passing.
  • src/api/transform/__tests__/vscode-lm-format.spec.ts: 39/39 passing.
  • NativeToolCallParser: 12/12 passing (165 total across the three suites).
  • turbo lint: 11/11 packages successful; focused ESLint clean on the changed files, with src/eslint-suppressions.json left unmodified.
  • turbo check-types / tsc --noEmit: clean.

Commit hooks (lint-staged and the pre-push type check) ran normally; nothing was bypassed.

What the out-of-tree probe did and did not show

An earlier out-of-tree experiment made 210 live vscode.lm requests against real Copilot Claude models.

The probe did not reproduce the tools-declared leak. All 105 tool-declared runs emitted a proper LanguageModelToolCallPart and leaked nothing into text parts. This bounds the leak rate at a low value on that surface; it does not prove absence, and no claim in this PR rests on the leak having been reproduced.

The probe harness and its transcripts are not part of this repository or this diff; the harness lives separately at simurg79/roo-vault#599. The measurements are reported here only for the record and are not reproducible from anything in this PR.

The real-world shape of the leak is inferred from third-party Anthropic-API reports (anthropics/claude-code#66153, #73808), not captured from vscode-lm. Copilot's vscode.lm endpoint sits behind its own prompt assembly, so those results describe that surface rather than the raw Anthropic API.

…indow-safe tool_result truncation

- Surrogate sanitization: a lone UTF-16 surrogate cannot be encoded as UTF-8,

  matching a tool actually offered that turn, and only when tools were offered.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to e340c

The provider now sanitizes content, enforces context limits with explicit refusal when trimming is insufficient, and recovers only schema-valid wrapped tool calls. Null and image-bearing edge cases are covered; a small documentation gap leaves five unusual markup outputs unexplained, so mergeability is low risk with bounded follow-up.

Full details: Regression Evidence

Explanation

Focused coverage is incomplete for two concrete changed behaviors. estimateMessagesChars() adds image-placeholder accounting at src/api/providers/vscode-lm.ts:502-528, but the tests never import or assert this helper. The image-containing truncation tests only assert that truncation occurs and that the image remains; they would pass if the image charge were removed. sanitizeSurrogatesDeep() also sanitizes object keys at src/api/transform/vscode-lm-format.ts:60-66, but the new transform tests cover nested string values only. A lone surrogate in a tool-input key is an untested request-rejection path.

Resolution

Add focused unit tests at the helper layers. Import and test estimateMessagesChars() with exact totals for string messages, text blocks, tool results, tool-use JSON, image blocks, and unsupported content. Add a tool-use conversion test with a lone-surrogate object key and assert that the key becomes U+FFFD while valid surrogate pairs remain unchanged.

Full details: Security Boundaries

Explanation

The changed recovery path executes assistant text as a tool call without full input validation. In src/api/providers/vscode-lm.ts, extractLeakedToolCalls() accepts any offered tool inside an open &lt;function_calls&gt; wrapper, and flushSalvage() emits it as a tool_call. parseLeakedInvokeParams() converts only a narrow top-level type subset. It does not enforce required properties, additional properties, enums, patterns, or nested schemas. A model influenced by prompt-injected workspace content can emit a copied wrapped invocation, such as an execute_command call, and the new path dispatches it instead of leaving it as text. The wrapper is explicitly only a heuristic, so it is not a trust boundary. The downstream approval flow remains present, but the changed path still trusts and executes unvalidated model-controlled input.

Resolution

Do not dispatch recovered text solely because it matches the wrapper and an offered tool name. Before emitting a recovered tool_call, apply the same effective tool allowlist and complete parameter validation used for native calls, including required fields, additional-property rules, nested schemas, and relevant constraints. Keep the entire block as text when validation fails. Treat wrapper detection as syntax filtering only, not as authorization or provenance.

Full details: Lifecycle Resource Cleanup

Explanation

The new synthetic repository test leaks a temporary directory when setup fails. createSyntheticPullRequestRepository() creates the directory at scripts/stryker-diff.test.mjs:60, then performs Git and filesystem operations before returning. The callers start their try/finally cleanup only after the helper returns (scripts/stryker-diff.test.mjs:99 and :122). If any setup operation throws, the caller never enters finally, so the directory remains in the system temporary directory. The changed provider and transformation paths add no separate listener, timer, or provider leak.

Resolution

Move the setup and cleanup into one lifecycle scope. For example, wrap all operations after mkdtempSync() in createSyntheticPullRequestRepository() with try/finally and call fs.rmSync(repository, { recursive: true, force: true }) in that finally, while returning the repository metadata only after successful setup. Alternatively, make the helper return a cleanup handle and ensure the caller establishes cleanup immediately after directory creation, including when setup fails.

Test the conversion boundary.

These tests only exercise sanitizeSurrogates. They do not prove that convertToVsCodeLmMessages sanitizes simple message strings, tool-result strings, tool-result text blocks, user text blocks, and assistant text blocks.

Add converter unit tests that inspect the resulting VS Code text-part values for each changed path. As per coding guidelines, “Place tests in the narrowest layer that proves the behavior.”

Raises patch coverage on the new vscode-lm reliability code above the 80%% codecov/patch gate by exercising the streaming salvage state machine (marker split across chunks, multi-chunk buffering, unknown-tool passthrough, carried tail) and the tool_result truncation helpers (array-form content, surrogate-safe middle-out, guard clauses).

Address review feedback on the leaked-tool-call salvage path: a tool name alone was not a sufficient gate, so prose or fenced examples reproducing the invoke markup could be replayed as real calls. Adds the quoted/fenced guard plus coverage.

Also records the empirical vscode.lm probe as a project skill (probe-vscode-lm-api) with the scratch probe extension, the false-positive replay harness, representative transcripts, and the consent-gate gotcha.
Skill directories hold reference scripts and captured artifacts that are intentionally never imported by the build.

@edelauna All 8 outstanding review items are addressed in 220ee89 and each thread has a threaded reply. I don't have permission to add a reviewer via the API (RequestReviewsByLogin denied), so flagging here instead — could you re-review when you get a chance? Note item r3741434464 involved a behavioral decision (extending the quoted-markup guard to unfenced prose) that's worth a look.

…buffer

Loop tag stripping until stable so `<<script>>` cannot reconstruct a tag
after a single pass (CodeQL incomplete multi-character sanitization).

Track fence marker and width instead of counting ``` runs for parity, so
tilde fences and 4+ backtick fences are recognized.

Treat a quoted invoke that ends its line as quoted when an explicit
quoting cue precedes it, rather than recovering it as a live tool call.
Keying off leading prose alone was tried previously and regressed genuine
recoveries, so the cue is deliberately narrow.

Bound the salvage buffer so markup that never closes is flushed as plain
text instead of withholding the response until the stream ends.
The first version of this test only checked the flushed text's content,
which the end-of-stream drain produces even without the cap, so it passed
against the unfixed code. Assert instead that text reaches the consumer
before the stream is exhausted, which is what the bound actually changes.

@edelauna — these are threaded responses to your seven open comments. GitHub is refusing inline replies on this PR (user_id can only have one pending review per pull request) because of a pending draft review on my account that I am deliberately leaving untouched, so I am posting them here rather than discarding that draft. Each section links to the comment it answers.

Not all feedback is resolved — see the 3-chars/token item in particular.


Re: #1188 (comment)

Recovery only fires when an open <function_calls> wrapper precedes the <invoke> (this gate), but the claude-code issues cited as justification (#68354, #73808, #66153) report t

Agreed, and I've narrowed the claim rather than widening the code. As of 9660bc1:

  • Recovery is now documented and scoped as wrapped-markup-only. An <invoke> is recoverable only inside an open <function_calls> wrapper; a bare, unwrapped <invoke> is deliberately passed through as text, and there's an explicit test for that (does not recover a bare invoke block with no function_calls wrapper).
  • The PR description has been rewritten to state this scope up front, and to say plainly that the wrapper is a heuristic for reducing false positives, not a security or trust boundary.
  • The description no longer implies the probe reproduced the tools-declared leak. It now states directly that the leak did not reproduce (0 of 105 tool-declared runs) and that no claim in the PR depends on it having reproduced. The real-world shape remains inferred from the third-party claude-code reports, not captured from vscode-lm.

So the bare case is scoped out explicitly and intentionally, rather than being an unhandled gap.


Re: #1188 (comment)

This floors each tool_result at MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS, so when the over-window size is dominated by non-tool_result content (a large user paste, tool_use inputs, assistant text, or

Both points are fixed in 9660bc1.

Silent oversized send. The budget is now re-checked after trimming. When shrinking tool_results cannot reach the budget — exactly the case you describe, where non-tool_result content dominates or results already sit at MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARScreateMessage no longer sends the request. It raises an explicit error naming the estimated size and the budget, so the failure is actionable instead of resurfacing as an opaque unexpected tool_use_id 400. Covered by still trims oversized tool_results when the system prompt consumes most of the budget and sends the request when trimming brings the conversation back under budget.

Image under-count. estimateContentChars charged 8 for an image. Since VS Code LM cannot carry image data, convertToVsCodeLmMessages substitutes a sentence-long textual placeholder, so 8 was well under what is actually sent. It's now IMAGE_PLACEHOLDER_CHARS = 64, matching that placeholder's real length rather than a token-sized guess.

I've also stated in the PR description that this guard is approximate and does not guarantee a token-accurate fit — it reduces the failure mode, it doesn't eliminate it.


Re: #1188 (comment)

This char-per-token budget diverges from the rest of the repo, which measures the same quantity with real tokens (context-management uses ~0.9 with tiktoken + a 1.5 fudge). This cl

Partially addressed in 9660bc1, and I want to be straight about which half.

Addressed: the rationale is now documented at the constants (VSCODE_LM_BUDGET_CHARS_PER_TOKEN = 3, VSCODE_LM_INPUT_BUDGET_FRACTION = 0.8). The reason for not using client.countTokens is that it counts a single string. It cannot price the tool schemas, image placeholders, or per-message framing the backend adds, and this budget has to be computed for every message on every turn, so a tokenizer pass here would be both incomplete and costly. That's why it's a character estimate rather than a reuse of the accurate counter.

Not addressed: the 0.8 itself is unchanged, and I'm not going to dress it up. It is heuristic headroom — a deliberately conservative slack factor covering the framing overhead the character estimate cannot see. I have no empirical calibration behind that specific number, and I'm not aware of any Copilot API limitation that pins it to 0.8. The PR description now says the guard is approximate and does not guarantee a token-accurate fit.

So: divergence from the tiktoken-based context-management path is real, and whether 0.8 is the right slack (or whether this should converge on the repo's existing measurement approach) is still open. Happy to keep discussing it.


Re: #1188 (comment)

Every recovered parameter is captured as a string here, so a tool whose schema expects a nested object or array (e.g. read_file.indentation, update_todo_list.todos, `ask_follow

Good catch — this was a real correctness gap, and it's fixed in 9660bc1.

Recovered parameters are no longer captured as flat strings. Recovery now takes the tool's parameter schema, and declaredParamType() / convertLeakedParamValue() convert each leaked parameter to its declared top-level type — array, object, number, integer, boolean, plus nullable unions resolved to the non-null type. A declared string stays literal even when its value looks like JSON, so string payloads aren't mangled.

For runtime wiring: createMessage builds providedToolSchemas from the very schemas offered to the model that turn, so the conversion uses the same source of truth as the native path rather than a parallel table. Cases like update_todo_list.todos and ask_followup_question.follow_up now arrive as the shape NativeToolCallParser expects.

It fails closed: if a structured parameter isn't valid JSON, or parses to a type its schema doesn't declare, nothing is recovered and the text passes through unchanged. When no schemas are supplied, every parameter stays literal, preserving prior behavior.

Tests added: converts a declared array parameter into a real array, converts declared object, number, integer and boolean parameters, resolves a nullable union to its non-null type, keeps a declared string parameter literal even when it looks like JSON, keeps every parameter literal when no schemas are supplied, fails closed to unchanged text when a structured parameter is not valid JSON, and fails closed when a parsed value has the wrong type for its schema.

To be clear about scope: this is a narrow top-level conversion, not full JSON Schema validation — nested shapes are not validated. That limit is now stated in the PR description.


Re: #1188 (comment)

All tests in this "quoted markup" block pass bare invoke(...) without wrap(...). In production, extractLeakedToolCalls evaluates isInsideFunctionCallsWrapper before `isQuot

You were right — those tests were short-circuiting on the wrapper check and never exercising the quote-detection logic at all. Fixed in 9660bc1.

The "quoted markup" block now uses wrap(invoke(...)), so isInsideFunctionCallsWrapper passes and each suppression path is actually reached:

  • suppresses an invoke inside a three-backtick fence
  • suppresses an invoke inside a tilde fence
  • suppresses an invoke inside a four-backtick fence containing a narrower fence
  • recovers an invoke that follows a CLOSED fence, proving the fence guard reopens
  • suppresses an invoke inside an inline code span
  • suppresses an invoke introduced by a quoting cue that ends its line
  • suppresses an invoke followed by narrative text on the same line

The closed-fence case is deliberately a positive test: it recovers, which proves the fence guard reopens rather than latching permanently and silently suppressing everything after the first fence. A regression in isInsideCodeFence, the fence-width branch, or QUOTING_CUE will now fail a test.


Re: #1188 (comment)

If yield* were accidentally dropped from yield* flushSalvage(), no text chunk would be emitted — lastText would be -1 and firstToolCall > -1 would still hold. The orderin

Correct — the ordering assertion was vacuous if the flush never emitted. lastText of -1 with any firstToolCall would still satisfy firstToolCall > lastText, so dropping yield* from yield* flushSalvage() would have passed silently.

Fixed in 9660bc1 by asserting existence before ordering:

expect(lastText).toBeGreaterThanOrEqual(0)
expect(firstToolCall).toBeGreaterThanOrEqual(0)
expect(firstToolCall).toBeGreaterThan(lastText)

The test also now asserts the exact flushed text rather than only its position, so a flush that emits the wrong content — not just one that emits nothing — is caught as well.


Re: #1188 (comment)

The sibling tests in this block all use toBe(text). Could this match?

Yes — it matches, and it's the stronger assertion. Applied in 9660bc1.

The passthrough cases now use exact equality (expect(leftoverText).toBe(text)) instead of a substring check, consistent with the sibling tests in this block. That matters here specifically: passthrough should return the input byte-for-byte unchanged, so a bug that mangles, re-escapes, or partially strips the markup while still leaving the word invoke present would have slipped past toContain but now fails.

The same exact-equality form is used for the other non-recovery paths added in this commit — unwrapped invoke, unoffered tool name, and the two fail-closed schema cases.

Use rawBudgetChars for the admission check.

Line 913 compares against the 2,000-character floor instead of the actual remaining capacity. If rawBudgetChars is 1,000, a 1,500-character non-truncatable message passes this check even though the complete request is 500 characters over budget. The provider then sends the over-window request that this guard must reject.

Use the floor only for truncateToolResultsToFitWindow. Reject when rawBudgetChars <= 0 or remainingChars > rawBudgetChars. Add coverage for a raw budget below MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS.

Verified against the current head (9660bc1) and the observation is correct: line 913 compares `remainingChars` to `messagesBudgetChars`, which is floored at `MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS`, so when `rawBudgetChars` is below that floor an over-budget request can still pass the guard. Not yet fixed. Proposed change: keep the floor solely as the trimming target for `truncateToolResultsToFitWindow`, and base the admission check on `rawBudgetChars` (refuse when it is non-positive or when `remainingChars` exceeds it), with a test for a raw budget below the floor. Proposed, not implemented in this PR yet.

@simurg79, thank you for verifying the issue.

The finding remains valid. messagesBudgetChars should remain the truncation target only. The admission check should reject when rawBudgetChars <= 0 or remainingChars > rawBudgetChars. A test should cover a positive rawBudgetChars value below MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS.

Fixed in 3f7ccce.

You were right that the gap was real, and it was a product bug rather than only a missing test. createMessage clamped the budget with Math.max(MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS, rawBudgetChars) and then used that clamped value for the final admission check, so any conversation sitting between a small positive raw budget and the 2000-char floor was accepted and sent over-window. The clamp is only meant to keep truncateToolResultsToFitWindow productive (it early-returns on a non-positive budget), so admission now compares against rawBudgetChars directly; the clamp still governs trimming only. The error message reports Math.max(0, Math.floor(rawBudgetChars)) so a negative budget does not render as a negative number.

Two focused tests were added at the boundary:

  • refuses a request that exceeds a small positive raw budget below the trimming floor - sizes the system prompt so the raw budget is ~1000 chars, with ~1510 chars of remaining content and a 1500-char tool_result that is under MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS, so trimming shrinks nothing. It asserts the guard message and expect(sendRequest).not.toHaveBeenCalled(), i.e. refusal happens before sendRequest.
  • sends a request that fits within a small positive raw budget - the negative control, so the guard cannot be mutated into an unconditional throw in this regime.

Note on the earlier suggestion in this thread: I did not assert that a marker reaches sendRequest, since that conflicts with the oversized-refusal behavior being verified here.

Red/green was verified explicitly: with the original remainingChars > messagesBudgetChars comparison restored, the new refusal test fails because the request is admitted and reaches the (deliberately unqueued) sendRequest mock; with the fix it passes. Provider + transform suites: 155 passing (153 before, plus these 2).

Thanks for updating this PR - had a couple more implementation comments.

Thanks for the careful review. The fix here is a deep topic I have no prior knowledge. I am actually surprised how much detail in the context management and llm API calls. I still don't know the details here but fully relying on AI to make the correct changes.

It is also interesting to see how much gap we have in the AI generated code.

GitHub checks out the synthetic pull request merge commit as github.sha, but pull_request.base.sha is frozen when the event is created. Once main advances, the stale base made the changed-code mutation gate attribute unrelated upstream-only files to the pull request (3294 changed executable lines across 87 files instead of 361 across the 2 files the PR actually touches).

Resolve the base from the checked-out head's first parent when the head is a merge commit, leaving non-merge heads and the merge_group path unchanged. Head stays github.sha so selector coordinates remain aligned with the checked-out tree.

Merged current main into this branch and fixed a CI issue in the changed-code mutation gate.\n\nWhat was wrong: the workflow checks out the synthetic PR merge commit as github.sha (head) but passed github.event.pull_request.base.sha as the base. That base SHA is frozen when the pull_request event is created, so once main advanced, the gate diffed across unrelated upstream commits and attributed main-only changes to this PR — 3294 changed executable lines across 87 files, of which only 361 lines in 2 files are actually from this PR (src/api/providers/vscode-lm.ts 336, src/api/transform/vscode-lm-format.ts 25). That pushed it over the 500-line cap and failed the gate for reasons unrelated to this PR's contents.\n\nFix: when the checked-out head is a merge commit, derive the base from that commit's first parent (the base branch actually merged in) instead of the stale event base. Non-merge heads and the `merge_group` path are unchanged, and head stays `github.sha` so mutation selector line numbers stay aligned with the checked-out tree. No caps, exclusions, or mutation scope were changed.\n\nVerification: added a regression test that builds a real synthetic git graph (older event base, newer unrelated first-parent upstream commit, plus the PR change) and drives the same `selectFromGit` the workflow uses. It fails before the fix and passes after. `pnpm test:mutation-ci` is 34/34, and the vscode-lm provider/transform suites are 153/153 locally. Against a GitHub-shaped merge commit the corrected selection yields exactly the 361 lines above, under the cap.\n\nThe mutation job itself has not run against this new commit yet — I'm not claiming it green in advance, just that the revision selection now scopes to this PR's own changes.

Learning: In `src/api/providers/vscode-lm.ts`, leaked `<invoke>` tool-call recovery must distinguish quoted markup from a live call without rejecting ordinary narration before a genuine streamed call. `isQuotedAsCode()` uses fence detection, inline-code detection, trailing prose, and the narrow `QUOTING_CUE` heuristic for end-of-line instructional markup. It intentionally cannot classify every prose example that lacks an explicit cue.

Learning: In `src/api/transform/vscode-lm-format.ts`, sanitizeSurrogates handling for `toolMessage.id`, `toolMessage.name`, and `toolMessage.tool_use_id` is intentionally deferred. The current VS Code LM hardening scope covers `toolMessage.input`, where sliced model-generated text can realistically contain unpaired UTF-16 surrogates. Add identifier sanitization only if an observed case, reproduction, or bug report justifies it.

236-236: A nullable parameter passed as null still fails closed.

declaredParamType returns "object" for the union ["object","null"]. convertLeakedParamValue then parses null and rejects it, because line 269 requires parsed !== null. parseLeakedInvokeParams returns undefined, so the complete valid block stays text and the recovered call is dropped.

The test at src/api/providers/__tests__/vscode-lm.spec.ts line 1695 only passes {"a":1} for the nullable parameter, so this path has no coverage.

Proposed fix
-/** Declared type of `paramName`, ignoring a nullable `["T","null"]` union. */
-function declaredParamType(schema: Record<string, unknown> | undefined, paramName: string): string | undefined {
+/** Declared type of `paramName`, plus whether the schema permits `null`. */
+function declaredParamType(
+	schema: Record<string, unknown> | undefined,
+	paramName: string,
+): { type: string | undefined; nullable: boolean } {
 	const properties = schema?.["properties"] as Record<string, unknown> | undefined
 	const property = properties?.[paramName] as Record<string, unknown> | undefined
 	const type = property?.["type"]
 	if (typeof type === "string") {
-		return type
+		return { type, nullable: false }
 	}
 	if (Array.isArray(type)) {
-		return type.find((entry): entry is string => typeof entry === "string" && entry !== "null")
+		return {
+			type: type.find((entry): entry is string => typeof entry === "string" && entry !== "null"),
+			nullable: type.includes("null"),
+		}
 	}
-	return undefined
+	return { type: undefined, nullable: false }
 }

Then accept a parsed null in convertLeakedParamValue when nullable is true, and add a regression test with optional: null.


913-913: The admission check uses the floored budget, so an over-window request can still be sent.

messagesBudgetChars is floored at MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS (2,000) at line 904. That floor is the trimming target only. If rawBudgetChars resolves to 1,000 and remainingChars is 1,500, this check passes and the provider sends a request that is 500 characters over the real budget. Copilot's backend then performs the non-pair-aware trim that this guard exists to prevent.

Use rawBudgetChars for admission and keep the floor for truncateToolResultsToFitWindow.

Proposed fix
 			const remainingChars = estimateMessagesChars(cleanedMessages)
-			if (remainingChars > messagesBudgetChars) {
+			if (rawBudgetChars <= 0 || remainingChars > rawBudgetChars) {

Add a test that distinguishes the minimum budget clamp.

The refusal case does not observe trimming. Both the clamped and unclamped implementations reject it. The existing successful trimming case has a raw budget above MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS, so it also does not cover the clamp. Add a case with 0 < rawBudgetChars < MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS and assert the truncation marker in sendRequest. CI runs changed-code mutation testing and blocks surviving mutants.

Confirmed against the current head (4f4e27a). The clamp is at line 904 (Math.max(MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS, rawBudgetChars)), and the test at line 290 drives the raw budget negative, so it is refused at the line 913 guard either way — the clamp is never observed. Valid gap; the minimal fix is one added case with 0 < rawBudgetChars < MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS asserting the truncation marker reaches sendRequest. Not yet implemented. Note this overlaps the still-open finding on that same guard comparing against the floored budget rather than the raw one, so I would land both together.

Fixed in 3f7ccce.

You were right that the gap was real, and it was a product bug rather than only a missing test. createMessage clamped the budget with Math.max(MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS, rawBudgetChars) and then used that clamped value for the final admission check, so any conversation sitting between a small positive raw budget and the 2000-char floor was accepted and sent over-window. The clamp is only meant to keep truncateToolResultsToFitWindow productive (it early-returns on a non-positive budget), so admission now compares against rawBudgetChars directly; the clamp still governs trimming only. The error message reports Math.max(0, Math.floor(rawBudgetChars)) so a negative budget does not render as a negative number.

Two focused tests were added at the boundary:

  • refuses a request that exceeds a small positive raw budget below the trimming floor - sizes the system prompt so the raw budget is ~1000 chars, with ~1510 chars of remaining content and a 1500-char tool_result that is under MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS, so trimming shrinks nothing. It asserts the guard message and expect(sendRequest).not.toHaveBeenCalled(), i.e. refusal happens before sendRequest.
  • sends a request that fits within a small positive raw budget - the negative control, so the guard cannot be mutated into an unconditional throw in this regime.

Note on the earlier suggestion in this thread: I did not assert that a marker reaches sendRequest, since that conflicts with the oversized-refusal behavior being verified here.

Red/green was verified explicitly: with the original remainingChars > messagesBudgetChars comparison restored, the new refusal test fails because the request is admitted and reaches the (deliberately unqueued) sendRequest mock; with the fix it passes. Provider + transform suites: 155 passing (153 before, plus these 2).

…e trimming floor

The clamp to MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS exists only to keep tool_result trimming productive; using it for the final admission check let a request through whenever the raw budget was positive but below the floor, sending an over-window request. Judge admission against the raw budget and cover the boundary with a regression test.

Also guarantee temp-repository cleanup in the two stryker-diff pull-request-selection tests via try/finally, and move the system-prompt surrogate sanitization test out of the leaked streaming recovery group.

declaredParamType stripped "null" from a declared ["T","null"] union, so convertLeakedParamValue rejected a literal JSON null and failed the whole leaked block closed to text. It now reports that null is permitted and the conversion consults that flag. A non-nullable object still rejects null, and a declared string keeps the literal text "null".

Also assert the streamed text chunk in the accepted-budget test, which previously drained the stream and only checked the sendRequest call.

readToolResultText counts only text parts. A tool_result array can also contain images. writeToolResultText preserves those images, and convertToVsCodeLmMessages converts each one to a text placeholder. The admission check can therefore accept a request that exceeds its estimated budget.

Add IMAGE_PLACEHOLDER_CHARS for every image nested in a tool_result. Add a boundary test with image-bearing tool results. As per path instructions: “Trace changed inputs through normal, boundary, error, cancellation, retry, and default paths and their consumers.”

The check removes XML-like tags first so an optional `</function_calls>` wrapper does not suppress valid recovery. Standalone quoted `<invoke>` markup without surrounding prose remains intentionally indistinguishable from a genuine leaked call and is recovered.

Support null-only parameter schemas.

LeakedToolSchemas passes raw parameter schemas to declaredParamType. type: "null" is rejected, while type: ["null"] falls back to the raw string "null". Handle both forms explicitly and test that recovery emits JSON null.

In `@src/api/providers/vscode-lm.ts` around lines 239 - 245, Update
declaredParamType to explicitly handle null-only schemas in both the scalar
"null" form and the array ["null"] form, returning a representation that
recovery serializes as JSON null instead of rejecting or falling back to the raw
string. Add or update tests covering both forms through LeakedToolSchemas and
verify the recovered parameter value is null.
