Problem

Typing /compact on an ACP-registry agent (omp / OhMyPi, and any other custom or registry ACP agent that implements /compact as a prompt command) fails immediately with:

This provider does not support context compaction.

The agent never receives the prompt.

Root cause

RunExecutionService rejects a /compact message when session.compactThread is missing:

1	const compact = input.message.attachments.length === 0 &&
2	input.message.text.trim().toLowerCase() === "/compact";
3	const startTurn = compact
4	? (input.session.compactThread?.(turnInput) ?? Effect.fail(new ProviderAdapter.ProviderAdapterTurnStartError({ …, cause: "This provider does not support context compaction." })))
5	: input.session.startTurn(turnInput);

makeAcpAdapterV2 only wires compactThread when flavor.supportsCompaction === true, and the acpRegistry flavor never set it — only the Grok flavor, and the ACP agents that compact through a native command, were reachable.

ACP has no compact method, but these agents do implement it: omp advertises 60 commands including compact, and runs its own compaction when prompted with the bare text /compact. T3 already preserves native slash commands un-wrapped (t3AcpPromptWithInstructions returns the prompt as-is when it starts with /), so the only missing piece was the wiring.

Fix

Add an optional compactCommand flavor flag. Setting it (a) makes the adapter compaction-capable, (b) sends /<compactCommand> as the compact turn, (c) records the Context compacted turn item on a completed compact turn.
Gate the send on what the agent actually advertises. The adapter now remembers each session's available_commands_update; if the agent listed commands and compact is not among them, the run fails with This agent does not advertise a /compact command. instead of sending /compact as ordinary chat. Agents that have not advertised anything yet are still allowed through, so a late advertisement is not a false negative.
acpRegistry opts in with compactCommand: "compact".

supportsCompaction stays for flavors like Grok that take /compact unconditionally.

Verification

New AcpAdapterV2.test.ts cases drive the real adapter against the mock ACP agent:

advertising agent → session/prompt payload is exactly [{ type: "text", text: "/compact" }] (no <user_request> wrapper)
agent advertising only plan → run fails with This agent does not advertise a /compact command.

1	AcpAdapterV2.test.ts 4 passed (compaction cases)
2	packages/provider-acp 92 passed
3	packages/provider-acp-registry 58 passed
4	tsc --noEmit clean (provider-acp, provider-acp-registry, apps/server)

AcpAdapterV2.test.ts > negotiates and executes optional native session forks through the ACP runtime fails on main in my sandbox as well, with or without this change — it is unrelated to this patch.

Note on scope

This is a focused bug fix for behavior that is currently a hard error for ACP agents that support /compact. It changes no defaults for agents that do not advertise the command.

Approvability

Verdict: Would Approve

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — ACP registry agents gain native /compact handling using advertised commands. The supplied session-selection finding remains independently blocking; the remaining changes are limited to requested compaction behavior and mock-agent support.

Walkthrough

The ACP adapter now supports configured compaction commands and checks session-advertised commands before starting matching turns. The registry configures compact. The mock agent can advertise commands, and tests cover successful compaction and command validation.

Changes: ACP compaction command support

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Configure and track advertised commands `packages/provider-acp/src/server/adapter.ts`, `packages/provider-acp-registry/src/server/adapter.ts`, `apps/server/scripts/acp-mock-agent.ts`	The adapter accepts a configured compaction command and records normalized command names per session. The registry configures `compact`. The mock agent can advertise configured commands during session creation or loading.
Validate and complete compaction turns `packages/provider-acp/src/server/adapter.ts`	The adapter rejects matching turns when a session advertises commands but omits the configured command. Successful compact turns can clear cached context usage. `compactThread` sends the configured command.
Exercise advertised-command behavior `apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Adapters/AcpAdapterV2.test.ts`	Tests cover successful compaction, missing-command rejection, context usage clearing, compaction items, and target-session command checks.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: External image Moderate · up to f0de8

A refused or truncated compaction can appear successful even though the agent has not compacted its context. Resolve that outcome handling before merging.

harness.compact() only starts the turn. This test passes if the agent later fails or the adapter never records “Context compacted.” Await the terminal event and assert the completed compaction item. As per path instructions, “backend behavior changes should ship with focused tests.”

fix(acp): validate compaction on the requested sessionb723a31

Note

Written by gpt-6.1-sol and claude-opus-5-5 on behalf of Maria

Verified in a real dev environment

Verified on a Linux Boat VM with the real dev web client, repository Playwright, /usr/bin/google-chrome, and real Codex gpt-6.1-sol turns through the local proxy. No mocks, fixtures, or demo data were used in the app. Projects, provider configuration, and threads were created through the UI.

On github/main (61c3794c32), ordinary chat succeeded but /compact failed with the server cause This provider does not support context compaction. Main's server was stopped before starting the PR's server. On the original PR head, real codex-acp 2.5.0 compacted successfully but displayed two completion rows because both structured ACP events and the command fallback emitted an item.

Fixed that duplicate in 8e8f623dcbda459d1ee6104052085b692c587a0c, pushed without force to the existing contributor head. A fresh real ACP conversation now renders one completion row, and the next turn remembers maple-28822. Neighbor checks passed: ACP /status, native Codex compaction, and native Codex recall of cedar-28822 after compaction.

The existing adapter test now covers agents with and without structured compaction updates. It failed before the fix with two completed items instead of one. blacksmith-check ran vp run check:changed: format, lint, knip, GraphQL, typechecks for 14 affected packages, and 93 tests passed. GitHub CI on the pushed head is still running.

Command transcript

main: real codex acp compaction fails after ordinary chat succeeds

fixed pr: one completed compaction and successful context recall

real codex acp compaction and context recall recording

Update: synced with main

Merged current main with a merge commit in 616c33324a. The only conflict was in AcpAdapterV2.test.ts, where both sides added independent helpers; both are kept. f0de88df49 moves the mock agent's T3_ACP_LOADED_COMMANDS read to module scope, which main's new processEnvInEffect typecheck rule requires. vp run check:changed passed on a testbox: format, lint, knip, GraphQL, typecheck for 14 packages, and 107 tests including all of AcpAdapterV2.test.ts. The real-agent run above was not repeated after the merge.

Not verified

Other ACP agents, a real agent that advertises commands without compact, and late command-advertisement timing were not exercised. The adapter's rejection and target-session switching cases passed in existing automated tests. Native iOS/Android clients, Electron shell behavior, macOS/Windows, remote relay, and tunnels were not exercised on this Linux VM.

Do not report refused or truncated prompt compaction as successful.
For the registry flavor, a prompt-based /compact turn that ends with refusal or max_tokens is treated as "completed" when no failure hook is configured. The fallback branch then clears cached context usage and emits "Context compacted" without a confirmed compaction. Store the prompt stop reason on the active turn and carry it through deferred finalization. Allow the fallback item only for a normal end_turn. Preserve the native compactSession path and the structured-compaction path.
