Summary

New routine offers Set up manually and Create in chat. Chat turns a request into an editable routine draft, supports follow-up refinement, and saves through the same command and record as manual creation.

  • Add routines.draft RPC: conversational input with a mid-edit-tolerant current draft, validated draft output, clarification turns, and AuthOrchestrationOperateScope authorization
  • Add RoutineDraftGeneration server service: prompt build from TextGenerationPrompts.ts, tool-disabled provider call, three-step validation (schedule preview, caller project list, generation and execution model registry)
  • Add generateRoutineDraft to the TextGeneration service and all six adapters; Grok returns a named capability error; Cursor/OpenCode/Antigravity run tool-disabled and schema-constrained
  • Add RoutineChat view: example request, pending, cancel, retry, and stale-response review offer; revision tracking keeps manual edits authoritative; the generation model is never changed by the server
  • Bracket OpenCode session lifecycle with acquireUseRelease so cancellation during pending session creation still aborts and deletes the created session
  • Save through routines.save: a chat-created routine is indistinguishable from a manually created one
  • Update docs/user/routines.md and the verify-katacode routines feature doc

Closes KAT-3320 (parent KAT-3318). Serialized with KAT-3348 (base includes its merged editor fixes).

Verification

  • Unit: vp run --filter @kata-sh/code-cli test, --filter @kata-sh/code-contracts test, --filter @kata-sh/code-client-runtime test, --filter @kata-sh/code-web test all green; typecheck clean
  • Live lanes and perf evidence tracked on the Linear issue (KAT-3320); Codex live re-run BLOCKED by provider usage limit, Claude lane scheduled after the local session limit resets

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added chat-based routine creation alongside manual setup.
    • Users can describe a routine, receive an editable draft, refine it conversationally, and save only when ready.
    • Added generation-model selection, schedule clarification, cancellation, retry, and stale-response review handling.
    • Chat creation preserves manually controlled permissions and workspace settings.
  • Documentation

    • Updated routine documentation and browser verification steps to explain the chat workflow and its behaviors.

- Add routines.draft RPC with conversational input (mid-edit tolerant
  current draft), validated RoutineDraft output, and clarification turns
- Add RoutineDraftGeneration server service: prompt build, provider call
  with tools disabled, three-step validation (schedule preview, caller
  project list, generation + execution model registry)
- Add generateRoutineDraft to TextGeneration and all six adapters; Grok
  returns a named capability error; Cursor/OpenCode/Antigravity run
  tool-disabled; OpenCode brackets session lifecycle with
  acquireUseRelease so cancellation during pending session creation
  still aborts and deletes the session
- Add RoutineChat view with example request, pending, cancel, retry,
  and stale-response review offer; revision tracking keeps manual edits
  authoritative; generation model is never changed by the server
- Save through routines.save: same record shape as manual creation
- Update user docs and verify-katacode feature doc

KAT-3320

Live Claude runs intermittently paraphrased the provider instance id,
which the provider-instance pattern rejects. The prompt now says to copy
instanceId and model verbatim from the available models list.
Live models occasionally merge the list's instanceId:model:Name format
into a colon-joined instance id or copy the display name into the model
field. The generated-fields schema now carries a loose string pair and
the server re-identifies the intended model against the provider
registry before validation; anything ambiguous stays a clarification
turn. The prompt also spells out the list format explicitly.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Changes

The pull request adds chat-based routine creation. It defines routine draft contracts and an RPC, integrates strict draft generation across text-generation providers, validates generated drafts on the server, and adds chat, revision, cancellation, clarification, and stale-response handling to the routines editor.

Routine chat creation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Draft contracts and RPC wiring
packages/contracts/src/routines.ts, packages/contracts/src/rpc.ts, packages/client-runtime/src/state/routines.ts, apps/server/src/auth/RpcAuthorization.ts
Adds routine draft schemas, the routines.draft RPC, authorization, and a client query atom.
Prompt and provider service interface
apps/server/src/textGeneration/TextGenerationPrompts.ts, apps/server/src/textGeneration/TextGeneration.ts, apps/server/src/git/GitManager.test.ts
Adds bounded prompt construction, strict output decoding, the generateRoutineDraft service operation, and test-service support.
Provider-specific draft generation
apps/server/src/textGeneration/*
Adds strict structured-output generation, disabled tooling, temporary working directories, cancellation cleanup, and provider-specific tests. Grok reports routine draft generation as unsupported.
Server draft validation and RPC execution
apps/server/src/routines/RoutineDraftGeneration.ts, apps/server/src/routines/RoutineDraftGeneration.test.ts, apps/server/src/ws.ts
Validates projects, models, schedules, and generated fields. It repairs supported model selections and applies runtime and workspace defaults.
Routine editor chat flow
apps/web/src/features/routines/*, docs/user/routines.md, .agents/skills/verify-katacode/features/routines.md
Adds chat creation, generation-model selection, history limits, cancellation, clarification, stale-response review, editor integration, documentation, and verification steps.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to a78b5

Some valid model selections either fail generation outright or cause an unnecessary clarification, so these model-selection paths should be corrected before merge.

use structured JSON rather than colon-delimited text, preserving model IDs
containing colons. Also remove or revise the default-model hint so it does not
instruct parsing only between the first two colons; keep
repairGeneratedModelSelection compatible with the complete model identifier.

model to add a routine-draft-specific capability, mark Grok as not supporting
it, and require that capability in canAttempt so Grok models cannot be selected
for routine draft generation.

Model ids can contain colons (llama3:70b round-trips through
ModelSelection), so the colon-joined list format was ambiguous for the
model and unparseable by the repair path. The prompt now embeds the
models list as JSON and asks for verbatim field copies.
