Bring back Gitea CI + auto-publish; share release helpers; strengthen multi-turn
tool/job prompts with a unit contract; ccache/make help and --release bootstrap.
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
The release files are built on this machine from now on, so the workflow that
did the same steps on a runner -- TinyCC build and unit tests, the static musl
Linux tarballs, the mingw Windows zip, the Gitea release upload -- is gone.
.gitea/ held nothing else.
Everything the workflow called stays and is runnable by hand exactly as it ran
there: scripts/ci_linux_toolchain.sh is what package_linux.sh uses to pick its
musl toolchain, scripts/ci_tcc.sh builds the second compiler the test job used,
scripts/ci_windows_cross.sh and scripts/bootstrap_windows.sh are the mingw
build, and scripts/release.sh is the upload (GITEA_TOKEN=... scripts/release.sh
FILE...).
A second implementation of cst_agent_hooks_t next to the TUI: the turn runs on
a worker thread, the hooks publish events into a ring buffer that SSE clients
read, so the engine itself needs no changes.
- src/net.c, include/cst_net.h: POSIX/Winsock sockets, non-blocking connect
- src/http_srv.c, include/cst_http.h: HTTP/1.1, keep-alive, chunked streaming,
body caps (413), Expect: 100-continue, connection cap, exact routing
- src/web_md.c, include/cst_web_md.h: streaming markdown -> sanitized HTML
(tag/attribute allowlist, javascript: URLs and off-site images dropped)
- src/webui.c, include/cst_webui.h: event ring + SSE broadcast, all routes,
token (Bearer/Cookie/query) and loopback Host checks, 3 s auto-deny when no
client is attached
- src/webui_stub.c, CST_WEBUI=0 / CST_BUILD_WEBUI=OFF: build without the WebUI
- web/: no-build front end (transcript, approvals, todo, sessions, image
upload, status bar)
- docs/webui.md: engine API v1 - events, requests, security model
- tests/test_webui.c, scripts/e2e_webui.sh: unit tests plus an end-to-end run
driven by a recorded SSE stream (no API key needed)
- src/main.c: --web --web-port --web-host --web-token --web-dev --web-open
and CST_WEB_PORT/HOST/TOKEN/ROOT
An empty POST body is now accepted without Content-Length (RFC 9112 6.3) so
curl-driven clients can reach cancel/undo/compact/quit; CMakeList's core tests
learned about sashidown and test_webui, and CST_WEBUI=0 defines CST_NO_WEBUI.
After a successful windows-cross build on main or v* tags, upload the zip
and .sha256 via scripts/release_windows.sh (creates/updates v$VERSION).
Prefer secrets.RELEASE_TOKEN; fall back to GITHUB_TOKEN. Skip on PRs.
clang under strict C11 left strcasestr undeclared (returns int → pointer
truncation → SIGSEGV). Parse Content-Length portably; keep -Werror on
make check. Drop Nix for windows-cross (root /nix fails) and use pinned
llvm-mingw UCRT instead; Alpine musl gets linux-headers for audit.h.
test_subagent segfaulted in the Docker runner: the fake SSE handler took
user + strlen(user) - 1 with an empty user string. Guard JSON access and
format the child report with an empty-safe last character. Remove the
sanitizers job entirely (if: false still queued it and blocked the runner).
- Replace actions/checkout (pulls from github.com) with scripts/ci_checkout.sh
fetched from this Gitea over raw/commit.
- Remove the macOS job (no runner).
- Disable sanitizers until the Docker runner has SYS_PTRACE; it was wedging
the only slot with AddressSanitizer:DEADLYSIGNAL.
- Add windows-cross: Nix UCRT mingw via TUNA, bootstrap_windows.sh, verify
dist/cst-agent-*-windows-x86_64.zip. Third-party git clones go through
gitclone.com.
The sanitizers job wedged the only runner by printing AddressSanitizer
DEADLYSIGNAL forever (Docker without SYS_PTRACE). Concurrency now cancels
in-progress jobs on a new push, and make asan is wrapped in timeout -s KILL
480 with shallow ASAN_OPTIONS.
Also copy the path with memcpy after the length check so -O1 asan builds
do not warn about snprintf truncation into OS_PATH_MAX.
Install was pulling bookworm packages from deb.debian.org; the domestic
Gitea runner crawls that for minutes. Rewrite sources to TUNA before
apt-get/apk, with CST_CI_MIRROR to override.
Tools
- Table-driven tool registry with permission classes and default/minimal
profiles; new tools: edit_file, list_dir, glob, grep, delete_file,
move_file, todo_write, web_fetch, ask_user (plus read_file paging).
- Built-in Myers diff; write tools return unified diffs.
- Persistent permission rules (.agent/permissions.json), per-turn undo
snapshots (.agent/undo), AGENTS.md project notes, auto-compact at 80%
of the model context, cancellable run_shell with process-group kill.
TUI
- Table-driven slash commands: /provider /key /effort /status /tools
/permissions /yolo /undo /retry /diff /export /copy /rename /delete
/init /max-steps /todo, with / and @ completion.
- Permission modal with diff and prefix rules, ask_user modal, todo
panel, header with model/effort/context, bracketed paste, line editing,
wide-char cursor, NO_COLOR and ASCII fallback; Esc never quits.
Startup and configuration
- API keys are entered in the TUI (hidden) and saved per provider in
<config>/credentials (0600); env variables are only a fallback.
- Last provider, per-provider model and reasoning effort are remembered
in <config>/settings.json; --effort/-e and /effort send
reasoning_effort (low|medium|high|max) to models that accept it.
- DeepSeek preset uses deepseek-flash / deepseek-v4-pro.
- Session flags --new/--continue/--resume/--list-sessions, --yolo,
--confirm.
Compatibility and tests
- ncurses detection, macOS/Homebrew support, make install, XDG config
dir, POSIX cleanups; Gitea CI (gcc/clang/asan/musl/macOS).
- Unit tests for diff, fs tools, registry, undo/perms and config;
e2e fixtures multi_file_refactor and ask_or_todo; vendored cJSON.
