What this changes

Hardens the VS Code Language Model provider (notably GitHub Copilot serving Anthropic Claude) against three failure modes.

1. Surrogate sanitization

A lone UTF-16 surrogate cannot be encoded as UTF-8, so the backend rejects the entire request with a 400. sanitizeSurrogates() replaces unpaired surrogates with U+FFFD while preserving valid pairs (emoji, CJK ext.). Applied to string messages, tool results, and text parts.

2. Leaked tool-call recovery

Some backends stream a tool call as raw <invoke> XML instead of a structured LanguageModelToolCallPart, leaving the turn with no tool_use block and stalling the task in a "no tools used" retry loop. extractLeakedToolCalls() and trailingPartialToolMarkerLength() detect the markup mid-stream (including markers split across chunk boundaries) and replay it as a real tool call. This is deliberately conservative: only for <invoke> names matching a tool actually offered that turn, and only when tools were offered at all.

3. Window-safe tool_result truncation

Copilot's backend trims over-window requests without preserving tool_use/tool_result pairing, orphaning a tool_result and causing a 400 (unexpected tool_use_id). truncateToolResultsToFitWindow() and middleOutTruncate() shrink oversized tool_result payloads on our side (largest first, middle-out, pairing preserved) before sending.

Adaptations made during the port

  • vscode-lm-format.ts had diverged from upstream, so insertion points were re-derived against the local structure.
  • Log strings rebranded to "Zoo Code".
  • The upstream PR's TEMP console.warn diagnostics (Task.ts, multi-search-replace.ts, ApplyDiffTool.ts) and its 3.53.1 -> 3.53.2 version bump were deliberately excluded.

Verification

  • Vitest on the two specs: 25 passing vs. 3 on the main baseline. All 22 new tests pass and no previously-passing test regressed. The 72 failures are pre-existing and identical to baseline (broken vscode mocks in those specs, out of scope).
  • ESLint with --prune-suppressions clean on all changed source files. src/eslint-suppressions.json verified content-identical and left unmodified.
  • tsc --noEmit shows no new type errors (only the 3 pre-existing ones already present on main).

Files changed

Source and tests:

  • src/api/transform/vscode-lm-format.ts
  • src/api/providers/vscode-lm.ts
  • src/api/transform/__tests__/vscode-lm-format.spec.ts
  • src/api/providers/__tests__/vscode-lm.spec.ts

Probe documentation and harness (added):

  • scripts/probe-vscode-lm-api/extension.js
  • scripts/probe-vscode-lm-api/package.json
  • scripts/probe-vscode-lm-api/probe-false-positives.spec.ts

Eight files total. No changeset file is included, and no build/tooling configuration is modified.

Empirical validation of the leaked-tool-call path

Review feedback asked whether the recovery path could fire on markup the model merely quotes. To answer that with evidence rather than inference, a scratch extension was loaded into a real extension host and made 210 live vscode.lm requests (7 Copilot Claude models x 6 scenarios x 5 repeats, 0 errors).

The raw transcripts were not retained in the repo. The probe harness and the replay spec live under scripts/probe-vscode-lm-api/, and re-running the probe regenerates the evidence; .roo/skills/probe-vscode-lm-api/SKILL.md documents how to run it and records the measured findings below.

Scenario Setup Runs <invoke in text
A tools declared + agent system prompt 35 0
B tools declared, no system prompt 35 0
C tools declared + ~300KB filler context 35 0
D no tools, model asked to emit the markup 35 14
E asked to quote the markup in prose 35 23
F asked to quote the markup in a code fence 35 21

What was measured

  • The leak did not reproduce. 105/105 tool-declared runs (A+B+C) emitted a proper LanguageModelToolCallPart and leaked nothing into text parts. This bounds the leak rate at a low value; it does not prove absence. 105 runs cannot exclude a rare or prompt-specific trigger.
  • Wrapped vs. bare inverts the intuition. All 14 genuine emitted invocations (D) were wrapped in <function_calls>; 0 were bare. All 44 quoted cases (E+F) were bare; 0 were wrapped. In this sample, bare correlates with quoting and wrapped with genuine invocation — so requiring the <function_calls> wrapper would not have been the discriminator it appears to be.
  • Zero false positives. Replaying extractLeakedToolCalls() over all 58 responses containing <invoke with validToolNames = {read_file}: 9 recovered (all genuine wrapped invocations, arguments parsed correctly), 49 passed through as text, including all 44 bare quoted cases. The quoted/fenced guard is what does the work here, not the wrapper requirement.
  • No antml: prefix appeared in any of the 210 runs.

Reviewer attention: isQuotedAsCode() is a judgment call, not a measurement

isQuotedAsCode() now suppresses recovery when narrative text follows the block on the same line. This behavioral change is a judgment call, not a measured result. The probe sample did not cover unfenced, backtick-free quoting, so there is no data in this PR that validates or refutes the heuristic.

The residual ambiguity is unavoidable and worth stating plainly: a quoted block sitting alone on its own line remains indistinguishable from a genuine leak, and will still be treated as a recoverable tool call. This is the item most warranting reviewer scrutiny.

Limits of this evidence

The real-world shape of the leak that motivated this recovery code is inferred from third-party Anthropic-API reports (anthropics/claude-code#66153, #73808), not captured from vscode-lm. No vscode-lm transcript of the failure exists. An earlier claim in this PR's discussion that the real-world leak is a bare unwrapped <invoke> was unsubstantiated and is withdrawn. Copilot's vscode.lm endpoint also sits behind its own prompt assembly, so these results describe that surface rather than the raw Anthropic API.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Improved compatibility with Anthropic-style tool calls in VS Code language models, including streamed and partially received calls.
    • Preserved tool-call ordering and validated calls against available tools.
    • Added automatic handling for oversized tool results to keep requests within context limits.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Prevented malformed text encoding from causing request issues by safely replacing invalid characters.
    • Improved protection against false tool-call detection in quoted or ordinary text.

…indow-safe tool_result truncation

Can a native LanguageModelToolCallPart (yielded at :761) arrive while salvageBuffering is true? If so, this flush emits leftoverText after that native tool_use, and cleanConversationHistory serializes in order — leaving text content following a tool_use block, which Anthropic rejects. Worth flushing the buffer as text before yielding a native call, or dropping the leftover-text emission for a buffer that spans one.

Apologies for the late reply — this is already resolved in the current branch.

flushSalvage() (src/api/providers/vscode-lm.ts, defined around line 708) is invoked before a native LanguageModelToolCallPart is yielded, so any buffered salvage text is emitted as a text chunk first rather than being dropped or reordered behind the tool call.

Covered by the interleaving test at src/api/providers/__tests__/vscode-lm.spec.ts:418.

Does this recover a call when the model merely quotes the <invoke> markup (e.g. echoing a file snippet, or a "Do NOT run <invoke>…" negative example)? The only gate here is the tool name; prose that reproduces the markup is replayed as a real call with whatever arguments accompany it. Should the block need to be self-delimited, or wrapped in <antml:function_calls>, to count as an invocation?

You were right, and I want to correct the record before anything else.

My earlier claim that the real-world leak takes the form of a bare, unwrapped <invoke> was unsubstantiated. I could not produce a linked issue or a vscode-lm transcript for it, and the third-party reports I was leaning on (anthropics/claude-code#66153, #73808) are Anthropic-API, not vscode-lm. I withdraw that claim.

To answer your question with data instead, I ran a scratch extension against a real extension host: 210 live vscode.lm requests, 7 Copilot Claude models x 6 scenarios x 5 repeats, 0 errors. The probe, the replay harness, and representative transcripts are committed under .roo/skills/probe-vscode-lm-api/.

Your concern was legitimate. Models really do reproduce <invoke name="..."> in prose: 44 of 70 runs that asked for a quoted example (in prose or in a fenced block) contained the markup. A name-only gate would have been replaying those.

On the specific fix: the quoted/fenced guard caught 100% of them. Replaying extractLeakedToolCalls() over all 58 transcripts containing <invoke (with validToolNames = {read_file}) recovered 9 — all genuine invocations, arguments parsed correctly — and passed 49 through as text, including all 44 quoted cases. 0 false positives.

On the <function_calls> wrapper specifically, the sample inverts what I would have guessed. All 14 genuine emitted invocations were wrapped; 0 were bare. All 44 quoted cases were bare; 0 were wrapped. So in this data, bare correlates with quoting and wrapped with genuine invocation — requiring the wrapper would not have been the discriminator it appears to be, and the fence/quote guard is what actually does the work. I am happy to add the wrapper requirement on top if you still want the belt-and-braces, but I did not want to present it as the thing that fixes this.

One more limit worth stating plainly: the leak did not reproduce at all in the 105 tool-declared runs — every one emitted a proper LanguageModelToolCallPart and leaked nothing. That bounds the rate at something low, but 105 runs does not prove absence, and it does not tell us the shape of the failure when it does occur. The recovery path's target remains inferred rather than observed on this transport.

I am not very familiar with the LLM behavior but I asked AI to run experiments. I think the result indicated that you are right and I am not sure if the code is updated as you suggested though but tests indicated the code is holding.

Sorry, I wish I know all these details.

Once this flips true it stays true until stream end — a <invoke/<function_calls match in ordinary prose latches buffering for the entire remaining response, so real-time streaming stops and the tail is emitted as one chunk. Should this reset if the buffer never progresses toward a complete block (or latch only after name="…" is seen)?

Apologies for the late reply — this is already resolved in the current branch.

LEAKED_TOOL_CALL_START (src/api/providers/vscode-lm.ts, around line 81) no longer latches on a bare <invoke; the alternation requires either a <function_calls> wrapper or <invoke name=". Prose that merely mentions <invoke therefore does not stop real-time streaming for the rest of the response.

These recovery tests filter chunks by type and assert each independently, so the emission order (prose before the recovered tool_call) is never asserted — a swap would still pass. Also, no case mixes a native LanguageModelToolCallPart with leaked <invoke> text, which is the one interleaving that can yield an invalid tool_use-then-text message. Worth asserting the full chunk sequence and adding a native+leaked fixture?

Apologies for the late reply — this is already covered in the current branch.

Chunk ordering is asserted explicitly at src/api/providers/__tests__/vscode-lm.spec.ts:409, which expects the exact sequence ["text", "tool_call", "usage"], so prose emitted before a recovered call cannot be reordered behind it or dropped. The interleaving case at :418 covers the mixed native-tool-call path.

Address review feedback on the leaked-tool-call salvage path: a tool name alone was not a sufficient gate, so prose or fenced examples reproducing the invoke markup could be replayed as real calls. Adds the quoted/fenced guard plus coverage.

Also records the empirical vscode.lm probe as a project skill (probe-vscode-lm-api) with the scratch probe extension, the false-positive replay harness, representative transcripts, and the consent-gate gotcha.
Skill directories hold reference scripts and captured artifacts that are intentionally never imported by the build.

@edelauna All 8 outstanding review items are addressed in 220ee89 and each thread has a threaded reply. I don't have permission to add a reviewer via the API (RequestReviewsByLogin denied), so flagging here instead — could you re-review when you get a chance? Note item r3741434464 involved a behavioral decision (extending the quoted-markup guard to unfenced prose) that's worth a look.

167-192: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Preserve a wrapper that also contains an unrecovered block.

If one <function_calls> wrapper contains an unknown <invoke> before a recovered known <invoke>, Line 168 marks the whole preceding segment as nearRecovery. Line 192 then removes the opening wrapper from the unknown block. Preserve wrapper tags unless all enclosed invoke blocks were recovered.

Add a mixed known-tool and unknown-tool wrapper test.

…buffer

Loop tag stripping until stable so `<<script>>` cannot reconstruct a tag
after a single pass (CodeQL incomplete multi-character sanitization).

Track fence marker and width instead of counting ``` runs for parity, so
tilde fences and 4+ backtick fences are recognized.

Treat a quoted invoke that ends its line as quoted when an explicit
quoting cue precedes it, rather than recovering it as a live tool call.
Keying off leading prose alone was tried previously and regressed genuine
recoveries, so the cue is deliberately narrow.

Bound the salvage buffer so markup that never closes is flushed as plain
text instead of withholding the response until the stream ends.
The first version of this test only checked the flushed text's content,
which the end-of-stream drain produces even without the cap, so it passed
against the unfixed code. Assert instead that text reaches the consumer
before the stream is exhausted, which is what the bound actually changes.

Replace the vacuous four-backtick test with a nested inner-fence case and add a closed-fence recovery test, both of which fail under the old backtick-parity counting.

Let collect reuse drain.

collect repeats the body of drain exactly. One helper keeps the streaming setup in a single place.

Move the tag-stripping doc comment to stripTagsCompletely.

Keep middleOutTruncate within maxChars.

When maxChars is smaller than the marker length, the function returns a marker longer than maxChars. Add the proposed guard to preserve the documented contract. The current production caller always uses a minimum target of 2000 characters.

to prevent overlapping probe executions: track whether run() is active, reject a
second invocation or queue it until the first completes, and clear the active
state on both success and failure. Preserve the existing fatal.json error
handling while ensuring shared outputs such as summary.json and transcript files
are never written concurrently.

context-window trimming block to a positive minimum before passing it to
`truncateToolResultsToFitWindow`. Use the existing `MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS`
constant as the floor so non-positive derived budgets still trigger tool-result
trimming while preserving the current calculation for larger budgets.

Comment thread src/api/providers/vscode-lm.ts
Address CodeRabbit review: a system prompt or tool schema large enough to consume the derived char budget left messagesBudgetChars non-positive, which made truncateToolResultsToFitWindow a no-op exactly when the request was most oversized. Clamp to MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS and cover it with a regression test. Also reattach a misplaced doc comment and dedupe a test helper.

Responses to the three nitpicks from CodeRabbit review 4920827327 (they were in the review body rather than inline threads, so replying here). All addressed in fbe5079 unless noted.

1. src/api/providers/__tests__/vscode-lm.spec.ts 323-346 — let collect reuse drain. ACCEPTED.
collect now calls streamTextParts(parts) and returns drain(). Pure dedupe, no behavior change; suite still 96/96.

2. src/api/providers/vscode-lm.ts 126-136 — misplaced doc comment. ACCEPTED.
The tag-stripping block comment described stripTagsCompletely but had drifted above hasCompleteInvokeBlock (which has its own one-liner). Moved it to sit directly on stripTagsCompletely.

3. src/api/providers/vscode-lm.ts 332-347 — keep middleOutTruncate within maxChars. PUSHING BACK.
The report is accurate as stated: for a maxChars smaller than the ~70-char marker, the returned marker exceeds maxChars. But there is no such caller. The sole production path is truncateToolResultsToFitWindow, which computes target = Math.max(MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS, …) with MIN_TOOL_RESULT_CHARS = 2000, and the function already returns "" for maxChars <= 0. CodeRabbit's own note acknowledges the caller's 2000-char floor.

Per the repo's "Avoid unnecessary complexity" rule, a defensive branch for an input no caller can produce is speculative generality. The honest characterization is that middleOutTruncate's contract holds for maxChars at or above the marker length, and that is the only range it is used in. I'd rather not add unreachable code to make a docstring literally true for inputs that never occur.
