Summary

The agent can now open the change Walkthrough for the current session through the ocm tool's new open_walkthrough action, optionally naming a change source. When the call completes in the session the user is viewing, the Manager opens the walkthrough automatically; otherwise the tool-call row offers an "Open walkthrough" button.

  • ocm gains an open_walkthrough action that opens the walkthrough for the current session (source optional) through a new internal POST /change-walkthroughs/:id route.
  • The walkthrough auto-opens when an open_walkthrough call completes live in the viewed session; historical calls, other sessions, and undocked panels are ignored, and each call opens at most once.
  • Completed open_walkthrough tool-call rows show an "Open walkthrough" button that passes the validated source.
  • The walkthrough panel shows layout-matching skeletons while loading or generating and applies a one-shot source request.
  • generate-text waits for an explicitly requested model to load before generating, so the first request is not rejected while OpenCode's catalog is still loading.
  • The side drawer header truncates its title and wraps actions below on narrow widths.

Type of Change

  • Bug fix
  • New feature
  • Refactor
  • Documentation

Checklist

  • Code follows project style (no comments, named imports)
  • TypeScript types are properly defined
  • Tests added/updated (80% coverage target)
  • pnpm lint passes locally
  • pnpm typecheck passes locally

Backend and frontend typecheck pass; frontend lint clean and backend lint has 0 errors. Backend targeted tests pass (164); frontend targeted tests pass (83).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Open a change walkthrough directly from a completed walkthrough request in a session. Walkthroughs can use a specified source, such as staged changes or a branch, and may open automatically when requested.
    • Walkthroughs now show clearer progress while generating, with loading placeholders for summaries and pending steps.
  • Improvements

    • The walkthrough panel adapts source details to the request, including branch bases and pull request numbers.
    • Side-panel headers arrange titles and actions more cleanly on narrow screens.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This change connects internal walkthrough routes to the ocm tool and adds frontend controls for opening walkthroughs from completed tool calls. Source requests select walkthrough inputs, and the walkthrough sheet displays loading and generation placeholders.

Changes

Walkthrough flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Internal walkthrough routes
backend/src/index.ts, backend/src/routes/internal/index.ts, backend/test/helpers/internal-test-app.ts, backend/test/routes/internal-change-walkthroughs.test.ts
The internal route factory receives changeWalkthroughService and mounts its routes. Tests cover authentication, staged-source input, and requests with an empty body.
OpenCode walkthrough action
backend/src/services/opencode-manager-tool-plugin.ts, backend/test/helpers/opencode-plugin-context.ts, backend/test/services/opencode-manager-tool-plugin.test.ts
The ocm tool accepts open_walkthrough with an optional validated source, posts to the session endpoint, and returns panel metadata with status content. Tests cover the action schema and responses.
Explicit model catalog wait
backend/src/services/opencode/generate-text.ts, backend/test/helpers/stub-opencode-client.ts, backend/test/services/opencode/generate-text.test.ts, backend/test/services/change-walkthroughs.test.ts
Generation with an explicit model waits for its catalog entry before proceeding with that model. Tests cover catalog appearance, timeout, and updated model-call expectations.
Transcript action detection and opening
frontend/src/lib/walkthroughTool.ts, frontend/src/lib/walkthroughTool.test.ts, frontend/src/components/message/ToolCallPart.tsx, frontend/src/components/message/ToolCallPart.test.tsx, frontend/src/components/message/MessagePart.tsx, frontend/src/components/message/MessageThread.tsx, frontend/src/components/message/ExplorationGroup.tsx, frontend/src/hooks/useAutoOpenWalkthrough.ts, frontend/src/hooks/__tests__/useAutoOpenWalkthrough.test.tsx, frontend/src/pages/SessionDetail.tsx
Completed open_walkthrough calls expose an action in message controls. The session page also detects new calls in docked layouts and opens the walkthrough with a validated source when available.
Source selection and walkthrough display
frontend/src/pages/SessionDetail.tsx, frontend/src/components/navigation/ToolSidePanel.tsx, frontend/src/components/session/ChangesWalkthroughSheet.tsx, frontend/src/components/session/ChangesWalkthroughSheet.test.tsx, frontend/src/components/ui/side-drawer.tsx, frontend/src/components/ui/side-drawer.test.tsx
The session page passes source requests to the walkthrough provider. Matching-session requests update source inputs, and the sheet renders loading and generation skeletons. The drawer header uses responsive ordering and title truncation.

Review comments at @backend/src/services/opencode/generate-text.ts:

resolveWalkthroughModel and preserve it for the generation request if required
by the API.

Use the session location when waiting for an explicit walkthrough model.

resolveWalkthroughModel can use session.model, which is selected against the repository location. A project-only model can therefore reach generateTextWithTimeout, while waitForGenerateModel queries only the global catalog.

This wait can add up to 15 seconds to every explicit generation call. A timeout shorter than 15 seconds can abort before generate.text runs. Pass the session location through the generation path and use it for model readiness lookup. Preserve that location for the generation request if the API requires it.

Comment thread frontend/src/hooks/useAutoOpenWalkthrough.ts
- Wait for the model catalog once per walkthrough generation instead of before every model call
- Report open_walkthrough as requested, not opened, and drop its unused metadata
- Share the ocm tool and action names through @opencode-manager/shared
- Remove the unused source-request nonce and duplicate session check
- Scan only new messages when auto-opening the walkthrough
- Assert the request action cannot reach the internal change-walkthroughs route
