expect(requestBodies).toHaveLength(1)runs as soon asdata-is-loadingreadsfalse. A deferred resume runs throughqueuePostStreamAction, so a short window exists where the stream has torn down but the resume POST has not started yet. In that window the assertion passes even when a resume is about to fire, so the regression guard can pass spuriously.Add a bounded settle before the negative assertion.

@AlemTuzlak I'd like you to have a look at this one. It appears that the AG-UI ResumeStatus does not have a "failed" state. If that's not there, then it looks like we've introduced a metadata extension to communicate errors. That Having said that, @kolaworld, the correct way to handle this would be to include error state in the metadata extension we added instead of introducing a breaking change. Don't you think that would be a better way to handle it? |
@tombeckenham , just seeing this and that makes sense to me to handle in metadata and avoid breaking change. i'll push up the updates for it accordingly. |
|
Made the updates to use metadata in 6178e34 @tombeckenham |
Fixes #1219
🎯 Changes
metadata.tanstack.state: 'output-error'. The payload uses the existing{ error: string }tool-error shape.clientToolErrors. The server then emits the sameoutput-errorresult shape that server tools use.Compatibility decision
This change does not add a protocol version or a success/error envelope. Successful resume payloads remain compatible in both mixed-version directions.
Only failed resumes add TanStack metadata. A new client failure sent to an old server remains unsupported because that server does not read this metadata. That failure path did not work before this fix.
A versioned envelope would require capability negotiation. It would also require both servers and clients to retain raw-success and envelope parsers during the transition.
Payload-shape detection is not safe. A valid tool output can contain an
errorfield.Root cause
The browser converted client-tool failures into
{ error }payloads without a failure marker. The resume validator then treated every resolved payload as successful output.As a result, the server rejected some failures against the success schema. Other failures reached continuation as successful tool results.
The TanStack metadata extension now carries the missing state. The payload remains compatible with the existing tool-result representation.
Possible alternatives
ResumeStatuscontract does not provide one.Testing
The focused package tests passed:
The full pull-request gate passed:
An agent-written temporary regression test produced this before-and-after result:
The temporary test sent a metadata-marked client-tool error through resume validation. On
origin/main, the server validated{ error }against the successful output schema.The focused end-to-end scenario is committed, but the local end-to-end suite was not run.
Manual test steps
output-errortool result and continues the chat.The automated scenario is easier to run because it uses deterministic tool calls and assertions.
Risk and rollback
The main risk is middleware that removes TanStack metadata from resume entries. Persistence coverage verifies the repository middleware path.
Revert this pull request to restore the previous resume behavior.
