feat(mcp): instant resume detection, scoped confirm, and slim tool subset - #438
Conversation
…bset (Refs #394) Instant detection writes .continuum/resume.json on every checkpoint for SessionStart hook to inject banner out of band, silent when no interrupted run. Scoped confirm adds --scope to CLI and scope param to MCP confirm, with REVIEW_CONFIRMED carrying components and validator clearing only named components, leaving other uncertainty intact. Slim subset now correctly exposes validate/resume/list_actions via CONTINUUM_MCP_SLIM minimal registration. Covers banner latency, scoped isolation, slim exact trio, and default flows unchanged.

Separate SessionStart hooks from normal briefing commands.
The parser defaults hook_event_name to "SessionStart", so continuum briefing with no resume file exits successfully without opening storage. This hides an active run that has not checkpointed and removes the normal no-active-run guidance. Set hook mode only in the installed hook command, then apply the silent fast path only when that explicit mode is present.
src/continuum/cli/main.py#L1111-L1114: require an explicit SessionStart hook marker before returning silently.src/continuum/cli/main.py#L2415-L2418: require the same explicit marker before bypassingopen_storage.

Bind the banner to the selected briefing run.
Line 1180 renders the resume-file run ID even when args.run_id selects another run. For example, metadata for r1 causes continuum briefing --run-id r2 to show an r1 resume command before the r2 briefing. Render the banner only for an explicit SessionStart invocation after its ID matches the resolved run_id.

Preserve confirmation state in src/continuum/state/validator.py:136-143.
StateValidator.validate() defaults confirmed to False and clears constructor confirmation when callers omit the argument. A one-shot iterable passed to validate_state() is also consumed by the constructor before validate() reads it. For self-certified goal or progress, both paths can return REQUIRES_REVIEW and block resume.
Use None as the omitted-value sentinel, update confirmation only when confirmed is provided, and pass one-shot iterables to validate() only once.

💡 Edge Case: Early return skips stale resume.json cleanup for completed runs
The new short-circuit for already-COMPLETED runs returns before the resume.json cleanup block (lines 958-967). Per the docstring, cmd_complete exists precisely to stop finished runs from hijacking resume via .continuum/resume.json. If a run was completed through the MCP RUN_COMPLETED path (which does not clean resume.json) and the file still references that run, invoking continuum complete <run_id> as the escape hatch now returns OK without removing the stale banner file. Consider running the resume.json cleanup before the early return so re-completing still clears a dangling resume pointer.

Description
Three coordinated pieces for issue #394, built on main's current post-revert confirm behaviour without preempting #377.
Instant detection:
CheckpointManager.checkpointwrites.continuum/resume.jsonon every checkpoint (atomic temp+replace, best-effort so checkpoint never fails). SessionStart hook (continuum briefing) reads it out of band: if the file does not exist there is no interrupted run and the hook is silent, avoiding any DB open; when it exists the banner.continuum/resume.jsonis injected before the full briefing. Target cold-start banner latency well under a second.Scoped confirm:
confirm --scope <component>(choices: goal, progress) and MCPcontinuum_confirmwith optionalscopelist.REVIEW_CONFIRMEDpayload gains optionalcomponents/scopelist; when omitted it is a full confirm of both for backward compatibility.StateValidatornow tracks a set of confirmed components (bool True still means both, empty means none) and clears only the named ones;RecoveryEnginecollects human REVIEW_CONFIRMED components from the log. Full confirm remains available.Token floor:
CONTINUUM_MCP_SLIM=1now correctly keeps only{continuum_validate, continuum_resume, continuum_list_actions}(was incorrectly keeping confirm). Minimal registration via env-var deletion, as before, but with the correct read-only trio.Additive changes only; default flows unchanged when features unused.

All well under the 1s target. Banner appears only when
.continuum/resume.jsonexists; silent otherwise. Scoped confirm leaves unrelated uncertainty untouched (test: goal confirmed, progress still requires_review and uncertain side effect still blocks). Slim subset lists exactly the read-only trio; mutating calls likecontinuum_record_progressnot present and full mode still exposes all 11 tools.Regression evidence: new tests fail on pre-change code (resume.json not written, slim kept confirm, scoped confirm cleared both). On pre-change,
test_mcp_instant_resume.pyfails at import of resume.json and at scoped isolation (progress would be valid when only goal confirmed).Checklist
Tests added or updated for the changed behaviour. Documentation updated where the change affects user-facing behaviour (validator docstring, CLI --scope help, MCP confirm description). CI passes on the latest commit. Security-relevant changes state known limitations explicitly in this description.
Additional context
Design tradeoffs: resume.json is tiny JSON written atomically, best-effort so checkpoint never fails; briefing fast path avoids DB open when no file, keeping hook silent. Scoped confirm normalizes scope to lowercased strings and validates against {goal, progress}, failing closed on typo. Slim via env-var deletion keeps existing affordance; minimal registration would be a larger refactor for same effect. If slim needs a dedicated tool name
continuum_resume_check, it can be added as alias without changing surface.Summary by CodeRabbit
