fix(vscode-lm): sanitize surrogates, recover leaked tool calls, and window-safe tool_result truncation#1188simurg79 wants to merge 21 commits into
Conversation
…indow-safe tool_result truncation Hardens the VS Code Language Model provider (notably GitHub Copilot serving Anthropic Claude) against three failure modes: - 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. - Leaked tool-call recovery: some backends stream a tool call as raw <invoke> XML instead of 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, conservatively: only for <invoke> names matching a tool actually offered that turn, and only when tools were offered. - 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. Ported from simurg79/Roo-Code#12.

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.

…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.

Timestamp: 2026-08-10T23:50:14.072Z
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.

File: src/api/transform/vscode-lm-format.ts:188-188
Timestamp: 2026-08-15T15:03:12.328Z
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.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
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-chartool_resultthat is underMIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS, so trimming shrinks nothing. It asserts the guard message andexpect(sendRequest).not.toHaveBeenCalled(), i.e. refusal happens beforesendRequest.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.

…rameter 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.

Handle nullable string unions before the string fast path.
For type: ["string", "null"], Line 243 selects string. convertLeakedParamValue() then returns raw null as the string "null" instead of JSON null. JSON Schema permits either member of a type array. (json-schema.org)
Define an unambiguous representation for nullable strings. Then either recover explicit null as JSON null, or fail closed and preserve the markup as text. Add a regression case for type: ["string", "null"] and raw null.
As per path instructions: add a behavior-focused boundary regression for this union.

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 notool_useblock and stalling the task in a "no tools used" retry loop.extractLeakedToolCalls()andtrailingPartialToolMarkerLength()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:
<invoke>is recoverable only inside an open<function_calls>wrapper. A bare, unwrapped<invoke>is deliberately passed through as text and is not recovered.<invoke>name must match a tool actually offered that turn, and only when tools were offered at all.3. Window-safe
tool_resulttruncationCopilot's backend trims over-window requests without preserving
tool_use/tool_resultpairing, orphaning atool_resultand causing a 400 (unexpected tool_use_id).truncateToolResultsToFitWindow()andmiddleOutTruncate()shrink oversizedtool_resultpayloads 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 eachtool_resultretainsMIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS, a conversation dominated by non-tool_resultcontent 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.tshad diverged from upstream, so insertion points were re-derived against the local structure.console.warndiagnostics (Task.ts,multi-search-replace.ts,ApplyDiffTool.ts) and its version bump were deliberately excluded.Files changed

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, withsrc/eslint-suppressions.jsonleft 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.lmrequests against real Copilot Claude models.The probe did not reproduce the tools-declared leak. All 105 tool-declared runs emitted a proper
LanguageModelToolCallPartand 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'svscode.lmendpoint sits behind its own prompt assembly, so those results describe that surface rather than the raw Anthropic API.
