Included review availability: Your plan includes up to 4 reviews per rolling hour; 2 remain after this review. 📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe change adds validated task nesting depth to shared types and persisted history. Tasks derive depth from persisted data or parent chains. History restoration backfills missing depth and persists it when the parent chain resolves. ChangesTask depth lifecycle
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Task nesting depth can be incorrect because supplied depth values are ignored and legacy backfill may leave the active task at depth 0, causing newly created child tasks in the same session to receive the wrong level. These bounded correctness issues should be addressed before merging. Possibly related PRs

- Around line 121-122: Update the TaskLike fixture used by the custom-tool test
to avoid casting a partial object as TaskLike: either provide a complete typed
test double including depth: 0 and all required members, or narrow the test
context type to only the members it uses.
In `@src/core/task/Task.ts`:
- Around line 516-536: Update the Task constructor’s depth initialization to
read CreateTaskOptions.depth, validate it as a non-negative integer, and apply
the defined precedence before persisted depth and parentTask.depth. Preserve the
existing root and legacy-child fallback behavior when no valid explicit,
persisted, or parent-derived depth exists, and add a constructor test covering a
valid explicit depth.
In `@src/core/task/taskDepth.ts`:
- Around line 43-68: Update the depth-walking loop in the relevant task-depth
function so it loads and processes the ancestor reached after exactly
MAX_DEPTH_WALK parent hops, while still rejecting longer walks. Preserve cycle
detection and existing depth/root handling, and add a regression test covering a
chain with exactly MAX_DEPTH_WALK hops.
In `@src/core/webview/ClineProvider.ts`:
- Around line 1262-1266: Update the task restoration flow around
backfillTaskDepth so the restored Task instance receives the computed legacy
depth and marks depthAuthoritative true before any child is created. Ensure
child depth derives from that synchronized value, and add a provider-level
regression covering restoration at a nonzero depth followed by child creation.

Apply the requested depth option.
CreateTaskOptions.depth reaches this constructor through ClineProvider.createTask() but this constructor never reads it. A caller cannot create a task at the requested nesting level.
Destructure and validate depth, then define its precedence relative to persisted depth and parentTask.depth. Add a constructor test for a valid explicit depth.

Allow exactly MAX_DEPTH_WALK ancestor hops.
A chain with exactly 32 hops returns undefined. The loop exits after it follows the 32nd parent reference and before it loads that ancestor. Process the final ancestor, or change the documented limit. Add a regression test for a chain with exactly MAX_DEPTH_WALK hops.

Keep the restored task depth synchronized with the backfilled depth.
backfillTaskDepth() persists the computed value, but task.depth remains the non-authoritative placeholder 0. If this task creates a child in the same session, the child derives depth 1 instead of computedDepth + 1.
Compute the depth before constructing Task, or provide a controlled way to update both task.depth and task.depthAuthoritative after backfill. Add a provider-level regression that restores a legacy task at depth greater than zero and creates a child.

Part 1/8 of the task-tree series (upstream-ready recomposition). Adds `depth` to HistoryItem and a cycle-safe `backfillTaskDepth()` that propagates parent depth through the delegation tree, so every task knows its nesting level. Depth is surfaced for later use by settings validation, environment details, and history-tree display. Includes the single-open-invariant spec mock for backfillTaskDepth (folded in from the series' CI fix) so this PR passes unit tests standalone.
