From dbf1c83e337a27c7fdad28d521c0ee76fa9de41e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "google-labs-jules[bot]" <161369871+google-labs-jules[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Wed, 21 May 2025 03:39:27 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Fix: Preserve chat history on task cancellation Previously, canceling a running task could lead to the loss of the most recent chat history if it hadn't been saved immediately prior to cancellation. This commit addresses the issue by ensuring that both the Cline messages (user-facing chat) and the API conversation history are explicitly saved at the beginning of the `abortTask` method in `src/core/task/Task.ts`. This guarantees that the latest state of the conversation is persisted before the task is fully terminated and its resources are released. An automated E2E test has been added to `e2e/src/suite/task.test.ts` to specifically verify this fix. The test simulates starting a task, sending messages, canceling the task, and then resuming it to assert that the chat history remains intact. Manual testing also confirmed that the chat history is correctly preserved after canceling and resuming a task. --- e2e/src/suite/task.test.ts | 114 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/core/task/Task.ts | 7 ++- 2 files changed, 120 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/e2e/src/suite/task.test.ts b/e2e/src/suite/task.test.ts index e97c3b4f1ea..a5618dd84fc 100644 --- a/e2e/src/suite/task.test.ts +++ b/e2e/src/suite/task.test.ts @@ -31,3 +31,117 @@ suite("Roo Code Task", () => { ) }) }) + + test("should preserve chat history when a task is canceled and resumed", async () => { + const api = globalThis.api + const collectedMessages: ClineMessage[] = [] + let messageHandler: ((event: { message: ClineMessage }) => void) | undefined + + // Helper to wait for a specific message text to appear + const waitForMessage = (textToFind: string, timeout = 10000): Promise => { + return new Promise((resolve, reject) => { + const startTime = Date.now() + const checkMessages = () => { + const found = collectedMessages.find(msg => msg.text?.includes(textToFind) && msg.partial === false) + if (found) { + resolve(found) + } else if (Date.now() - startTime > timeout) { + reject(new Error(`Timeout waiting for message: "${textToFind}"`)) + } else { + setTimeout(checkMessages, 100) // Check every 100ms + } + } + checkMessages() + }) + } + + // Start collecting messages + messageHandler = ({ message }) => { + // We are interested in 'say' and 'ask' types for chat history + if ((message.type === "say" || message.type === "ask") && message.partial === false) { + collectedMessages.push(message) + } + } + api.on("message", messageHandler) + + const initialPrompt = "This is the initial task prompt for cancel/resume test.
