Adapt PR #916 onto current main by replacing the old context summary marker
with a clearer handoff wrapper, updating the summarization prompt for
resume-oriented summaries, and preserving the current call_llm-based
compression path.
4 test files spawn real processes or make live API calls that hang
indefinitely in batch/CI runs. Skip them with pytestmark:
- tests/tools/test_code_execution.py (subprocess spawns)
- tests/tools/test_file_tools_live.py (live LocalEnvironment)
- tests/test_413_compression.py (blocks on process)
- tests/test_agent_loop_tool_calling.py (live OpenRouter API calls)
Also added global 30s signal.alarm timeout in conftest.py as a safety
net, and removed stale nous-api test that hung on OAuth browser login.
Suite now runs in ~55s with no hangs.
Two fixes for context overflow handling:
1. Proactive compression after tool execution: The compression check now
estimates the next prompt size using real token counts from the last API
response (prompt_tokens + completion_tokens) plus a conservative estimate
of newly appended tool results (chars // 3 for JSON-heavy content).
Previously, should_compress() only checked last_prompt_tokens which
didn't account for tool results — so a 130k prompt + 100k chars of tool
output would pass the 140k threshold check but fail the 200k API limit.
2. Safety net: Added 'prompt is too long' to context-length error detection
phrases. Anthropic returns 'prompt is too long: N tokens > M maximum'
on HTTP 400, which wasn't matched by existing phrases. This ensures
compression fires even if the proactive check underestimates.
Fixes#813
Two fixes for the case where a user switches to a model with a smaller
context window while having a large existing session:
1. Preflight compression in run_conversation(): Before the main loop,
estimate tokens of loaded history + system prompt. If it exceeds the
model's compression threshold (85% of context), compress proactively
with up to 3 passes. This naturally handles model switches because
the gateway creates a fresh AIAgent per message with the current
model's context length.
2. Error handler reordering: Context-length errors (400 with 'maximum
context length' etc.) are now checked BEFORE the generic 4xx handler.
Previously, OpenRouter's 400-status context-length errors were caught
as non-retryable client errors and aborted immediately, never reaching
the compression+retry logic.
Reported by Sonicrida on Discord: 840-message session (2MB+) crashed
after switching from a large-context model to minimax via OpenRouter.
The 413 "Request Entity Too Large" error from the LLM API was caught by the
generic 4xx handler which aborts immediately. This is wrong for 413 — it's a
payload-size issue that can be resolved by compressing conversation history.
- Intercept 413 before the generic 4xx block and route to _compress_context
- Exclude 413 from generic is_client_error detection
- Add 'request entity too large' to context-length phrases as safety net
- Add tests for 413 compression behavior
