Description

completePrompt() built its own request body with stream: false, which the Codex subscription endpoint rejects with 400 Stream must be set to true. Rather than flip the flag and hand-roll SSE parsing, this runs the request through handleResponsesApiMessage — the path createMessage already uses — and joins the text chunks into one string.

Going through the existing path means the OAuth refresh-and-retry, the SDK→SSE fallback, the Luna body and the service tier all apply without being duplicated. The hand-built body is gone, along with the now-redundant notAuthenticated check.

Only text chunks are accumulated. Reasoning is deliberately dropped — commit-message generation writes this result straight into the Source Control input box.

Two things worth flagging for review:

  • The spec asserted the bug. expect(body.stream).toBe(false) meant the test suite held the broken behavior in place. That assertion is inverted, and the two completePrompt tests now drive real streams.
  • abortSignal was dead on this provider. executeRequest always made its own AbortController and never linked metadata?.abortSignal, so cancelling never reached the wire. The caller's signal is now linked to that controller, which also makes the commit-message stop button actually cancel the request.

Behavior change worth knowing: the old code returned the first output_text block; concatenating returns all of them. For a one-shot completion that is more correct, and cleanCommitMessage already post-processes the result.

An SSE-path failure now produces two telemetry events, since makeCodexRequest already captures one of its own. Left alone as it is not worth restructuring the error handling for.

Follow-up from review (979269b)

Two defects @taltas spotted in the above, both fixed:

  • The stream could be replayed after it had already produced output. The SDK stream and the loop consuming it sat in the same try, so an error raised part-way through was handled as "the SDK could not be used at all" and the whole request was replayed over SSE — appending a second generation to text the caller already had. executeRequest now tracks whether an SDK event has arrived and only falls back while none has. The flag is set before processEvent runs, since that mutates response state too, so a throw from it must not replay either. This fixes the chat path as well, since both go through executeRequest.
  • An abort resolved as if it had completed. Both transports end quietly on cancellation — they break out of their loops rather than throwing — so completePrompt returned whatever partial text had arrived and callers read a cancelled generation as a finished one. It now rejects with an AbortError, and a cancellation passes straight through the catch rather than being captured by telemetry or relabelled as a completion error, since stopping is the caller's own doing.

Second review round (c68dae1)

CodeRabbit caught the two remaining ways back into a request the service had already accepted.

  • The OAuth retry loop was the other replay route. Closing the SSE fallback left handleResponsesApiMessage free to refresh the token and resend after a mid-stream error that reads as an auth failure, so completePrompt could still concatenate two generations and the chat path could repeat streamed effects. I had flagged this as knowingly left open; it is now closed. sawSdkEvent moved onto the handler as sawSdkEventInCurrentResponse, reset per request alongside the other response state, and the retry is skipped once it is set. A refresh before any event still retries exactly as before, which is what that loop exists for. Went with a plain field rather than the suggested typed marker, since it carries the same information without an error type to thread across the generator boundary and match on.
  • An abort still reached the SSE fallback. The SDK rejects when the caller cancels, which read as a transport failure, so it spent a second request on an already-aborted signal and reported the cancellation as a connection error. The fallback now rethrows instead.

Third review round (bb2676a)

A review note about the cancellation tests turned out to have a real bug behind it.

  • The abort result was not consistent. A stream that ended quietly threw an AbortError, but a transport that rejected on abort had its own error passed straight through the catch. What a cancelled completePrompt rejected with therefore depended on how far the request had got, which is nothing a caller can key off. An abort is now restated as an AbortError unless it already is one. Both cancellation tests fail without the change and pass with it.
  • The in-flight case had no coverage. Cancelling after the request is away but before any event is the case that only works if the caller's signal is genuinely linked to the internal controller, so it is what would catch that link breaking. It has to wait for the request to actually be in flight before aborting, since the token lookup and the listener are both async and a synchronous abort fires before anything is listening.

One suggestion from that round was skipped: asserting that an already-aborted signal never calls create. That contradicts the implementation and an existing passing test. executeRequest aborts its internal controller and then still calls create with that aborted signal, which is what makes the SDK reject it.

Test Procedure

npx vitest run api/providers/__tests__/openai-codex.spec.ts api/providers/__tests__/openai-codex-native-tool-calls.spec.ts — 54 pass. The full provider suite passes at 1267. check-types and lint are clean.

New coverage: joining multiple text deltas, reasoning excluded from the result, tool calls and usage excluded, OAuth retry reaching completePrompt, error wrapping when both transports fail, and from the review round — rejection on mid-stream cancellation and on an already-aborted signal, plus a mid-stream SDK failure asserting that SSE is never reached, no refreshed-token retry after the SDK has emitted, the pre-event refresh path left untouched, and no SSE fallback when the SDK fails because the caller aborted.

The pre-existing tests that force create to reject before any event and then assert the SSE path still pass, which is what proves the fallback only closed for the mid-stream case.

Manually: with a Codex profile selected, run Enhance Prompt or generate a commit message and confirm text comes back instead of a 400. Pressing stop mid-generation leaves the input box as it was, with no error notification.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved streaming response handling for more reliable text generation.
    • Prevented duplicate output when retrying after partial responses.
    • Improved cancellation behavior, including requests aborted before or during processing.
    • Added safer fallback handling when streaming responses fail.
  • Tests
    • Expanded coverage for streaming, retries, cancellation, fallback responses, service tiers, and error scenarios.

The Codex subscription endpoint only accepts streaming requests, so
`completePrompt` sending `stream: false` was rejected outright with
HTTP 400 `Stream must be set to true`. That made commit-message
generation, prompt enhancement and condensing unusable on Codex.

Rather than issue its own request, `completePrompt` now runs the
existing streaming path and joins the text chunks. That inherits the
OAuth refresh-and-retry, the SDK-then-SSE fallback and the Luna body
instead of duplicating a second, subtly different request builder.
Reasoning chunks are deliberately dropped: a commit message is written
straight into the Source Control box.

A caller's abort signal also never reached the wire, since both
transports abort through the handler's own controller. It is now linked
to that controller, so stopping a generation actually cancels it.

The spec asserted `stream: false`, pinning the bug in place; it now
asserts the opposite and covers chunk joining, reasoning exclusion,
auth retry and signal propagation.

Assert the returned value in the pre-aborted test.

The test discards the result of completePrompt. It therefore hides that an already-aborted request resolves with an empty string. Assert the outcome so the contract is explicit. If you adopt the cancellation fix suggested in src/api/providers/openai-codex.ts Line 1291-1305, change this to rejects.

Two problems in the streaming completePrompt path.

The SDK stream and its consumption loop sat inside the same try, so an
error raised part way through the stream was handled as "the SDK could
not be used at all" and the request was replayed over SSE. Whatever the
SDK had already yielded stayed with the caller, so the replay appended a
second generation to the first. The fallback now closes after the first
SDK event, which is the point where the request has been accepted and
its output is already out. It is set before processEvent runs, since
that mutates response state too, so a throw from it must not replay
either. This covers the chat path as well, since both go through
executeRequest.

Both transports also end quietly on abort, breaking out of their loops
rather than throwing, so completePrompt returned whatever partial text
had arrived and callers read a cancelled generation as a finished one.
It now rejects with an AbortError instead, and a cancellation is passed
through rather than reported to telemetry or relabelled as a completion
error, since stopping is the caller's own doing.

The two abort specs asserted that a cancelled call resolves, which held
the bug in place. They now assert the rejection and cover the pre
aborted and mid stream cases, and a new spec covers the mid stream SDK
failure and checks that SSE is never reached.

Comment thread src/api/providers/openai-codex.ts
Follow-ups to the previous commit, both raised by CodeRabbit.

Closing the SSE fallback after the first SDK event left the OAuth retry
loop as a second way back into a request the service had already
accepted. A mid stream error that reads as an auth failure would refresh
the token and send the whole thing again, so completePrompt could
concatenate two generations and the chat path could repeat streamed
effects. The flag moved onto the handler, reset per request alongside
the other response state, and the retry is now skipped once the SDK has
emitted. A refresh before any event still retries as before, which is
the case that loop exists for.

An abort also still reached the fallback, since the SDK rejects when the
caller cancels and that read as a transport failure. It spent a second
request on an already aborted signal and reported the cancellation as a
connection error. The fallback now rethrows instead.

Specs for both, plus a check that the pre event refresh path is
untouched.

@github-actions github-actions Bot removed the awaiting-review PR changes are ready and waiting for maintainer re-review label Aug 15, 2026
Chasing a review comment about the cancellation tests turned up a real
inconsistency behind it. A stream that ended quietly threw an AbortError,
but a transport that rejected on abort had its own error passed straight
through, so what a cancelled completePrompt rejected with depended on how
far the request had got. Callers cannot key off that. An abort is now
restated as an AbortError unless it already is one.

The in flight case, where the caller cancels after the request is away
but before any event, had no coverage. It only works if the caller signal
is genuinely linked to the internal controller, so it is the case that
would catch that link breaking. Added, and it waits for the request to be
in flight before aborting, since the token lookup and the listener are
both async and a synchronous abort fires before anything is listening.

Also tightened the existing abort assertion from a bare rejects.toThrow,
which passed on any error at all, to the same AbortError check the other
cancellation tests use.
