fix(google): re-attach Gemini thought signatures on bare history replay - #1823
Conversation
Gemini requires the thoughtSignature that came with a function call to be sent back when the call is replayed in a later request. The Responses wire carries it in extra_content.google.thought_signature, but real clients (codex-rs 0.144.x, Codex desktop) replay history as bare function_call / custom_tool_call items keyed by call_id and never echo extra_content. Without the signature, Gemini rejects the replayed part with 'Function call is missing a thought_signature in functionCall parts' (reproduced with codex exec through the proxy). Remember the signature server-side when it leaves the proxy on a function-call response item, keyed by the client-visible call_id, and re-attach it in the parser when a replayed call carries no echoed metadata. The store is bounded (TTL, entry cap) and persisted so resumed threads survive a proxy restart. Covered by roundtrip tests: remembered signatures re-sign bare function_call and custom_tool_call replays, unknown call_ids stay unsigned, and the snapshot survives a simulated restart.

Freeform tools serialize as custom_tool_call items that cannot carry extra_content, so the streaming/non-streaming response paths for them skipped the replay store entirely. The model still issues a thoughtSignature on the underlying function call, and the client replays the call as a custom_tool_call keyed by call_id, so the unsigned part was rejected on the next turn. Remember the signature in the freeform emission paths too; the parser already re-signs custom_tool_call replays from the store.
…ch and local_shell; register store path in config ownership Replay coverage completeness (issue lidge-jun#1735 follow-up):\n- tool_search_call and local_shell_call items replayed without echoed metadata now also recover their remembered thought signature by call_id.\n- Register thought-signature-replay.json in INITIAL_OWNED_PATHS so clean uninstalls and config resets manage the store lifecycle.\n- Added unit tests for tool_search and local_shell history replay signature round-trips.

Add a total byte limit for the persisted store.
MAX_ENTRIES limits only entry count. isCarryableSignature() permits a 64 KiB signature. At 16,384 entries, signatures alone can occupy 1 GiB, excluding unbounded callId values and JSON overhead. Each rememberThoughtSignatureForReplay() then serializes and atomically writes the full snapshot.
A provider or upstream adapter that emits valid maximum-size metadata can cause large heap allocations, long request-side write queues, and configuration-directory disk exhaustion.
Track aggregate encoded bytes during load, insertion, pruning, and persistence. Reject or evict entries when a small store-byte budget is exceeded. Bound callId length before storage.

Scope replay entries by conversation identity.
entries uses only callId as its key. The store path is also shared for the configuration directory. src/bridge.ts assigns the provider event ID to call_id, while its replay-cache contract states that provider call IDs are not globally unique.
If two conversations reuse a call ID, lookupReplayThoughtSignature() can attach the first conversation's signature to the second conversation's tool call. Gemini can reject that mismatched signed part. A shared service can also send opaque provider metadata from one conversation in another conversation's upstream request.
Include a stable conversation or tenant scope, plus the provider identity, in the persisted key. Pass that scope through both bridge capture and parser restoration. Add a collision regression test that uses the same call ID in two scopes.

The store was keyed on the client-visible `call_id` alone. That id is not unique across conversations, accounts, providers or models, so two threads using the same id overwrote each other's signature, and a lookup could hand a signature from one account's turn to another's replay. The key is now the identity the in-process reasoning cache already uses: client thread plus provider, adapter and model, with the call id. An incomplete scope means "do not remember" rather than "remember globally" -- a partially identified entry is exactly the collision this store exists to prevent. `parseRequest` takes the scope as an option because it runs before the route and account are chosen; without one it returns nothing rather than guessing. Three further defects go with it: - **Overwrite was silent.** A different signature under the same complete key means two upstream turns claimed one identity. `rememberThoughtSignatureForReplay` now returns `stored | already-equal | conflict | unscoped | ignored` and keeps the first value on conflict. A retry writing the same value stays a no-op. - **Persistence was fire-and-forget.** The write is still queued, but the call now returns a `durable` promise so a caller can await the commit before the tool-call item is exposed. - **The entry cap was not a memory bound.** A single signature may be 64KiB, so 16,384 entries is a ~1GiB ceiling. Added a total-byte bound, and `load()` now prunes so a snapshot written under looser bounds is brought back in line. The snapshot format moves to `version: 2` because the stored key changed shape; a v1 file is simply not adopted, which costs one unsigned replay rather than risking a cross-thread hit from a v1 key. Regressions cover the isolation directly: the same call id in another thread, another provider identity and another model all miss; a conflicting write fails closed; an incomplete scope stores nothing; and a write reports its durability. Driven red against the call-id-only key.
