Fixes#1106

🎯 Changes

  • Separates pending interrupt ownership from active interrupt submission state.

  • Prevents legacy auto-continuation while native interrupt descriptors still own the continuation.

  • Allows a settled native resume to continue normally when it produces a subsequent client-tool call.

  • Fixes sequential client tools becoming blocked during nested resume flows.

  • Adds unit and E2E coverage for native-to-native and native-to-legacy continuation sequences.

  • Updates structured-output tool documentation to describe the interrupt/resume lifecycle.

✅ Checklist

  • I have followed the steps in the Contributing guide.
  • I have tested this code locally with pnpm run test:pr.

🚀 Release Impact

  • This change affects published code, and I have generated a changeset.
  • This change is docs/CI/dev-only (no release).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved sequential client-tool resume handling.
    • Prevented new messages or automatic continuation while interrupt actions remain unresolved.
    • Preserved resume ownership and chained request context across multiple tool interruptions.
    • Improved propagation of transport errors during resumed interactions.
  • Documentation

    • Clarified how client-tool execution and resumption work.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for legacy tools, sequential resumes, request chaining, completion notifications, and error handling.

Keep native resume batches authoritative while interrupt descriptors remain, then allow legacy client-tool continuation after the native resume settles.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The client now preserves native interrupt ownership during sequential client-tool resumes. It blocks ordinary continuation while interrupts remain pending, forwards chained resume parameters, updates the documentation, and adds unit and E2E coverage.

Changes

Sequential client-tool resume handling

Layer / File(s)Summary
Interrupt ownership and resume behavior
packages/ai-client/src/chat-client.ts, packages/ai-client/tests/chat-client-resume.test.ts, docs/structured-outputs/with-tools.md, .changeset/fix-sequential-client-tool-resumes.md
ChatClient blocks normal and automatic continuation while interrupt descriptors remain. Tests cover legacy client-tool continuation, chained native resumes, parent run IDs, resume items, and transport errors. Documentation describes the internal interrupt and resume-batch flow.
End-to-end resume request verification
testing/e2e/src/routes/api.tools-test.ts, testing/e2e/tests/tools-test/race-conditions.spec.ts
The tools-test route forwards optional parentRunId and resume values. The E2E test verifies the initial request, two chained resume requests, and completion notification.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk:⚪ Minimal · up to a0946

The PR updates continuation ownership behavior and adds focused unit and end-to-end coverage. A minor test-placement cleanup remains, but it does not affect product behavior or create an actionable merge-blocking risk.

…esume
The merge with main brought in #1122, whose rule is "native resume batches
stay authoritative while interrupt descriptors remain, then legacy
client-tool continuation is allowed once the native resume settles".
`checkForContinuation` encodes that via `hasPendingInterrupts()`, but
`shouldAutoSend` still gated on the raw `activeInterruptSubmission` handle.
Generic interrupts settle the resume stream through a post-stream action
that runs before `submitInterruptBatch`'s `finally` clears that handle. So
after the merge, a legacy client tool emitted by the native resume itself
found every other precondition satisfied (resume state cleared, no
interrupts, tool complete) and was still stranded, leaving the run at two
turns instead of three.
Gate on the descriptors instead, which is the ownership signal #1122
actually specifies. Fixes the `continues a legacy client tool emitted by a
native resume` regression.

* feat: add first-party generic interrupts
defineInterrupt describes a pause. Register it on chat() and the client
hooks. Middleware returns requests from onInterruptBoundary. The client
gets typed payloads and resolveInterrupt. Resume validates the answer
and runs onInterruptResolution.
Store the answer on a middleware capability, then apply it in onConfig.
* ci: apply automated fixes
* feat: carry generic interrupt requests on resume.metadata
Move the original request off AG-UI state and onto each resume item.
useChat stamps tanstack:interruptContinuation from the outbound interrupt.
chat() rebuilds the request from resume metadata. Docs drop params.state.
* ci: apply automated fixes
* fix: address generic interrupt review bugs
Call onFinish after toolResume stop so persistence can write the turn. Keep tool approvals in the afterTools generic batch. Keep pending tool calls in the afterModel snapshot. Parse malformed tool arguments as {} on the emit path. Accept an optional payload that parses to undefined. Merge durable resume tool state maps instead of replacing them. Reject pending interrupts from more than one run on a thread. Record a stale error when two first-party items share a batchIndex. Treat a generic binding as not resumable when a wire schema hash does not match.
* fix: unblock generic interrupt CI typechecks
Keep interrupt-free createChatMiddleware() as never so chat() without interrupts type-checks. Give the playground a mutable audience list. Stop inferring a variadic middleware tuple in the e2e route. Make the apply-answers resume snippet valid TypeScript.
* fix: use one schema hash for first-party generic interrupts
The client hashed convertSchemaToJsonSchema output, which adds extra object fields. The producer does not. The hashes did not match, so typed review-plan items never hydrated and the generic middleware e2e tests timed out.
* fix: make generic middleware interrupt e2e pass
The harness dropped a numeric aimockPort and clicked Run Test before hydrate.
Client tools also ran before toolResume, so cancel/stop could not skip them.
- Parse aimockPort as number or string
- Wait for hydrate, then retry Run Test
- Hold client tools until toolResume is continue
- Keep synthetic beforeModel run ids on the chat run
* ci: apply automated fixes
* fix: drop unused expectCollectRejects after main merge
The helper came from main. This branch already asserts those cases with RUN_ERROR.
oUnusedLocals failed @tanstack/ai-persistence:test:types and cancelled E2E.
* ci: raise E2E job timeout to 30 minutes
The suite does not finish in the old 15-minute job limit.
* fix: stamp foreign-interrupt bindings with the request runId
The client correlates generic resume on the request runId. The harness
used a new server id, so ours was generic but canResolve stayed false.
* docs: type generic interrupts without Extract casts
Check kind and definitionId, then pass GenericInterrupt<typeof reviewPlan>.
Also clean em dashes and a few contracted words in the interrupt guides.
* fix(ai-client): keep legacy client-tool continuation after a native resume
The merge with main brought in #1122, whose rule is "native resume batches
stay authoritative while interrupt descriptors remain, then legacy
client-tool continuation is allowed once the native resume settles".
`checkForContinuation` encodes that via `hasPendingInterrupts()`, but
`shouldAutoSend` still gated on the raw `activeInterruptSubmission` handle.
