fix(server): settle no longer leaves monitors and dev servers running - #5774
Conversation
Settling a thread now stops its idle provider session the same way archive does, so PR watch loops and background dev servers die when you mark the thread done instead of running on for hours and waking the thread back up. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Review follow-up: the pre-stop projection read stays best-effort, but a failed read now leaves a warning instead of silently skipping the stop. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
ApprovabilityVerdict: Approved 4a614a9 This is a straightforward bug fix extending existing archive cleanup logic to also work for settle commands. The changes follow established patterns, include defensive race-condition handling, and are well-tested. You can customize Macroscope's approvability policy. Learn more. |
Review follow-up: the settle-originated session stop is now conditional (onlyIfSettled) and decided in the decider against the serialized read model, so a turn started between the settle and the stop survives. Archive stops stay unconditional. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Settling a thread means "I'm done with this", but the provider session kept running its background work. An audit of real usage found settled threads with PR monitors that ran 4 more hours (then woke the thread at 3am via
reason: activity) and dev servers that burned ports and RAM for 13+ hours.Settle now mirrors archive: after the command lands, the server dispatches
thread.session.stopif the thread has a live session. That takes down everything inside the provider process — monitors, background shells, subagent fleets.Details worth knowing:
starting/runningsession, so this only ever stops idle sessions between turns.stoppedsession-set does not count as session activity, so the stop cannot un-settle the thread it follows.Not covered here: processes an agent detach-spawns with
nohup/setsidescape the provider process tree entirely. That needs process-group/cgroup ownership and is a separate change.Tests: two new
server.test.tscases (settle with live session stops it without closing terminals; settle with no session dispatches nothing extra). Existing archive hook tests all pass.Built by Claude Fable 5 running in Claude Code.
Note
Medium Risk
Changes thread lifecycle and when provider sessions stop, including a new race-sensitive decider path; behavior is guarded by
onlyIfSettledand covered by new tests.Overview
Settle now tears down idle provider sessions (monitors, dev servers, background work) by dispatching a follow-up
thread.session.stopafterthread.settlelands, using the same post-command hook as archive when the thread still has a non-stopped session. Terminals stay open on settle—only archive continues to close terminal panes.Settle cleanup stops are conditional:
thread.session.stopgains optionalonlyIfSettled, and the decider rejects that stop if the thread was unsettled, the session is starting/running, or a queued turn start appeared before the stop is decided—so a quick re-engage after settle does not kill the new session. Archive-driven stops remain unconditional.The WS layer shares one “parking” path for archive and settle, logs a warning when the pre-stop session snapshot read fails (instead of silently skipping), and adds integration tests for settle-with-session vs no-session.
