feat(chat-workflow): wire POST /api/chat/workflow to durable Vercel Workflow (PR 3 of 4)

[sweetmantech]

Summary

Replaces the stub UIMessage stream from #579 with a real Vercel Workflow agent loop. Stub run-ids (stub-<uuid>) are now real ones (wrun_<id>) emitted by WDK. Tools are intentionally NOT wired — the workflow runs streamText with the gateway model + Recoup custom instructions only. Sandbox tool surface lands in PR 4.

Re-scoped plan: 4 PRs total (per agreement after a scope reality check)

1. ✅ docs contract (docs: add /api/chat/workflow contract + promote Chats to top-level nav docs#221)
2. ✅ route stub (feat(chat-workflow): POST /api/chat/workflow route stub (PR 2 of 5) #579)
3. ✅ this PR — workflow wire-up (no tools)
4. ⏳ port 12 sandbox tool files + buildAgentTools + wire into runAgentStep

What lands end-to-end

validateChatWorkflow → session+chat ownership → isSandboxActive
→ reconcileExistingActiveStream (resume / 409 / fall-through)
→ refresh session lifecycle activity
→ fire-and-forget persist user message
→ start(runAgentWorkflow, [...])
→ CAS chats.active_stream_id (cancel + 409 on race)
→ return run.getReadable() + x-workflow-run-id header

New code

Supabase helpers (lib/supabase/)

• chats/compareAndSetChatActiveStreamId.ts — atomic CAS via predicate
• chats/touchChat.ts — bump updated_at
• chats/updateChat.ts — generic partial update mirroring updateSession
• chat_messages/createChatMessageIfNotExists.ts — upsert with ignoreDuplicates
• chat_messages/isFirstChatMessage.ts — title-from-first-message check

Chat/recoupable helpers (lib/)

• recoupable/extractOrgId.ts — org-<slug>-<uuid> → uuid
• chat/assistantFileLinks.ts — workspace-file deep-link prompt
• chat/recoupApiSkillPrompt.ts — recoup-api + artist-workspace nudge
• chat/agentCustomInstructions.ts — composed system-prompt suffix
• chat/persistLatestUserMessage.ts — fire-and-forget user msg + auto-title
• chat/reconcileExistingActiveStream.ts — 3-attempt resume/clear/conflict loop

Workflow (app/workflows/)

• runAgentWorkflow.ts — "use workflow" agent loop (no-tool: 1 iteration)
• runAgentStep.ts — "use step", single streamText turn via @ai-sdk/gateway

Wired — lib/chat/handleChatWorkflowStream.ts replaces hardcoded stream with start(runAgentWorkflow, ...).

Test results

• 46 new unit tests (8 + 5 + 2 + 3 + 5 + 3 + 7 + 6 + 18 across the new modules)
• Full suite: 2946/2946 pass (was 2900 before this PR)
• Lint: clean

E2E verification on preview deployment

https://api-git-feat-api-chat-workflow-wire-up-recoup.vercel.app

Setup: agent signup → session → sandbox provisioned (11s) → POST /api/chat/workflow with prompt "Reply with exactly the word ZAP, nothing else."

Response (truncated to first 50 lines):

HTTP/2 200
content-type: text/event-stream
x-vercel-ai-ui-message-stream: v1
x-workflow-run-id: wrun_01KS5H9SA4696XMFV24H9Y5HD1 ← REAL Vercel Workflow run-id
data: {"type":"start"}
data: {"type":"start-step"}
data: {"type":"text-start","id":"0","providerMetadata":{"gateway":{"generationId":"gen_01KS5H9WBMRQE4984FH98DBP1C"}}}
data: {"type":"text-delta","id":"0","delta":"Z"} ← REAL LLM-driven streaming
data: {"type":"text-delta","id":"0","delta":"AP"}
data: {"type":"text-end","id":"0"}
data: {"type":"finish-step"}
data: {"type":"finish","finishReason":"stop"}

Matches the prod sandbox.recoupable.com/api/chat response shape (captured via Chrome DevTools MCP in #579's comments) — same start → start-step → text-* → finish-step → finish framing, same providerMetadata.gateway.generationId, same x-vercel-ai-ui-message-stream: v1 header. Only difference: prod also emits a message-metadata chunk with model + usage + cost — minor gap, easy follow-up if needed (just messageMetadata callback on toUIMessageStream).

Out of scope (PR 4)

• 12 sandbox tool ports from open-agents/packages/agent/tools/ (bash, read, write, grep, glob, todo, task, ask_user_question, skill, fetch, plus utils + recoup helpers)
• buildAgentTools factory
• Wiring tools into runAgentStep via experimental_context
• createChatRuntime (sandbox handle + skill discovery for tool exec)
• persistAssistantMessagesWithToolResults (client-side tool results persistence)

Test plan

• Unit tests pass (2946/2946)
• Lint clean
• E2E preview: real wrun_ run-id, real LLM-driven stream, full SSE protocol verified
• Optional: capture a duplicate-request race against preview to verify 409 / resume paths

Summary by cubic

Wires POST /api/chat/workflow to a durable Vercel Workflow with real SSE and wrun_ run IDs. Adds safe pre-claim CAS, resume-or-409 handling, and single‑turn streaming; tools are still out.

• New Features

  • Streams model output via runAgentWorkflow → runAgentStep (one turn) using @ai-sdk/gateway + agentCustomInstructions; SSE with x-workflow-run-id.
  • Resumes in-flight runs through maybeResumeChatStream; returns 409 on conflicts. Treats transient workflow/api errors as conflicts without clearing the slot.
  • Pre-claims chats.active_stream_id with pending-<uuid> before start(...), then promotes to the real run id; cancels our run and returns 409 if promotion loses.
  • Refreshes session activity; fire-and-forget persists the latest user message and auto-sets the chat title (exact 80‑char cap).
  • Uses the chat’s model_id when set, else defaults to anthropic/claude-haiku-4.5.

• Refactors

  • Consolidated active-stream CAS into compareAndSetChatActiveStreamId; lib/supabase/chats/updateChat is a generic helper with where predicates and discriminated results. Fixed Next.js build typing by switching to in-operator narrowing in CAS and rewriting the updateChat predicate builder to avoid Supabase type-depth issues (behavior unchanged).
  • Switched reconcileExistingActiveStream to a top‑level workflow/api import; tightened cancel/error-path tests.

^{Written for commit be4580a. Summary will update on new commits. Review in cubic}

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR converts the chat streaming endpoint from a stub into a durable Vercel Workflow-backed system. It introduces LLM orchestration (runAgentStep, runAgentWorkflow), Supabase persistence helpers, stream reconciliation logic, and replaces handleChatWorkflowStream with a concurrency-safe handler that pre-claims request slots, resumes existing workflows, and promotes placeholders to real run IDs.

Changes

Vercel Workflow-backed Chat Streaming

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Agent Prompts & Utilities lib/chat/agentCustomInstructions.ts, lib/chat/assistantFileLinks.ts, lib/chat/recoupApiSkillPrompt.ts, lib/recoupable/extractOrgId.ts	Foundation modules: agentCustomInstructions composes two prompt fragments; assistantFileLinks constructs workspace file deep links with normalized href format; recoupApiSkillPrompt routes agent requests to correct Recoup skills and org scopes; extractOrgId extracts UUID from clone URLs or repo names.
Supabase Data Access Layer lib/supabase/chat_messages/selectChatMessages.ts, lib/supabase/chat_messages/upsertChatMessage.ts, lib/supabase/chats/updateChat.ts	Query and persistence helpers: selectChatMessages reads chat messages with optional filtering, ordering, and limiting; upsertChatMessage inserts/updates messages with duplicate detection; updateChat atomically updates chat state with optional compare-and-set predicate on active_stream_id for concurrency control.
LLM Workflow Orchestration app/lib/workflows/runAgentStep.ts, app/lib/workflows/runAgentWorkflow.ts	Vercel Workflow layer: runAgentStep executes a single LLM turn using gateway(modelId), appends agentCustomInstructions, and streams UIMessageChunk output into a provided writable stream; runAgentWorkflow orchestrates a single turn, logs start/finish, and terminates if the model returns tool-calls finish reason.
Workflow Reconciliation & Resume Logic lib/chat/reconcileExistingActiveStream.ts, lib/chat/maybeResumeChatStream.ts	Resume management: reconcileExistingActiveStream probes run status and decides whether to resume (if running/pending), return ready (if stale/cleared), or return conflict (if uncertain); maybeResumeChatStream wraps that logic and returns either a resumed UI stream response, a 409 conflict, or null to signal a new workflow should start.
Chat Streaming Endpoint & Persistence lib/chat/handleChatWorkflowStream.ts, lib/chat/persistLatestUserMessage.ts	Main handler rewrite: handleChatWorkflowStream validates request ownership/sandbox, attempts to resume via maybeResumeChatStream, then pre-claims active_stream_id using a pending-<uuid> placeholder with conditional update (returns 409 if slot taken), refreshes session, starts runAgentWorkflow, promotes placeholder to real runId atomically, and returns the workflow run's readable stream with x-workflow-run-id header. Supporting: persistLatestUserMessage fire-and-forgets user message upsert, updates chat updated_at, and conditionally sets chat title only if the message is confirmed as earliest (to avoid race conditions).

Estimated code review effort

🎯 3 (Moderate) | ⏱️ ~25 minutes

The PR introduces multiple interrelated systems (workflow execution, stream resumption, data persistence, concurrency control) with heterogeneous logic across 13 files. However, each layer follows consistent patterns (Supabase helpers with error discrimination, structured result types, prompt composition), and the main handler's complexity is well-scoped through helper delegation. Most layers are straightforward; the highest density is in handleChatWorkflowStream (CAS logic, run promotion, cancellation fallback).

Poem

🌊 A workflow streams its thoughts in measured steps,
With prompts that guide and slots that never collide,
Resuming where we left off, no data slips,
The chat flows steady, deep, and verified.

12 issues found across 23 files

Confidence score: 2/5

• There is a clear regression risk around duplicate workflow execution: lib/chat/reconcileExistingActiveStream.ts can clear active_stream_id on transient getRun/status failures, and lib/chat/handleChatWorkflowStream.ts starts runs before claiming the stream ID, creating a race where two requests can launch work.
• Error handling currently conflates infrastructure failures with normal contention in lib/supabase/chats/compareAndSetChatActiveStreamId.ts and the post-CAS re-read path in lib/chat/reconcileExistingActiveStream.ts, which can produce misleading 409s and incorrectly proceed as ready after read errors.
• Input/invariant safety is also weaker than expected: lib/chat/handleChatWorkflowStream.ts accepts messages as z.array(z.any()), and lib/supabase/chats/updateChat.ts allows updates to protected fields (active_stream_id, session_id, id, timestamps), increasing chances of bad state transitions.
• Pay close attention to lib/chat/handleChatWorkflowStream.ts, lib/chat/reconcileExistingActiveStream.ts, and lib/supabase/chats/compareAndSetChatActiveStreamId.ts - concurrency and error-path handling here can trigger duplicate runs and inconsistent conflict behavior.

Comprehensive E2E test on preview deployment

Preview URL: https://api-git-feat-api-chat-workflow-wire-up-recoup.vercel.app

1. Negative paths (5/5 ✅)

#	Request	Expected	Actual
1	No auth header	401	✅ 401 {"status":"error","error":"Exactly one of x-api-key or Authorization must be provided"}
2	Bad x-api-key	401	✅ 401 {"status":"error","message":"Unauthorized"}
3	Missing chatId	400	✅ 400 {"status":"error","missing_fields":["chatId"],"error":"Invalid input: expected string, received undefined"}
4	Non-existent sessionId	404	✅ 404 {"status":"error","error":"Session not found"}
5	Session has no provisioned sandbox	400	✅ 400 {"status":"error","error":"Sandbox not initialized"}

2. Happy path — real LLM streaming (✅)

Prompt: "In exactly 8 words, describe what a workflow is."

Response headers:

HTTP/2 200
content-type: text/event-stream
x-vercel-ai-ui-message-stream: v1
x-workflow-run-id: wrun_01KS5J64YF7V3YMXGT36SVTCB6 ← REAL Vercel Workflow run-id

Response body:

data: {"type":"start"}
data: {"type":"start-step"}
data: {"type":"text-start","id":"0","providerMetadata":{"gateway":{"generationId":"gen_01KS5J65N6J1C5KA20G0NQ8BW6"}}}
data: {"type":"text-delta","id":"0","delta":"Step"}
data: {"type":"text-delta","id":"0","delta":"-by-step process to complete a specific task."}
data: {"type":"text-end","id":"0"}
data: {"type":"finish-step"}
data: {"type":"finish","finishReason":"stop"}

Model produced exactly 8 words. providerMetadata.gateway.generationId correctly forwarded from AI Gateway → Anthropic.

3. Reconcile path — stale active_stream_id (✅)

After the workflow above completed, chats.active_stream_id still held wrun_01KS5J64YF7V3YMXGT36SVTCB6. Sent a second request:

• reconcileExistingActiveStream calls getRun(staleId).status → "completed"
• CASes the stale id back to null → action: "ready"
• Handler falls through and starts a fresh workflow

Result:

x-workflow-run-id: wrun_01KS5J8XGJQSJJJPDVEDSDJSK2 ← NEW run, different from prior
data: {"type":"text-delta","id":"0","delta":"4"} ← Correct answer to "What is 2+2?"
data: {"type":"finish","finishReason":"stop"}

4. Concurrent-request conflict resolution (✅)

Fired two requests at the same time against the same chat (prompt: "List 20 random animals one per line."). Expected one of:

• Both get the same stream (one starts, the other resumes via reconcileExistingActiveStream)
• Or one gets 200 + the other 409

Actual:

REQ1: HTTP/2 200 x-workflow-run-id: wrun_01KS5J9VXHJZFTBFFR7C3J92SE
REQ2: HTTP/2 200 x-workflow-run-id: wrun_01KS5J9VXHJZFTBFFR7C3J92SE ← SAME run-id

Both responses had the samex-workflow-run-id AND the samegateway.generationId — confirming REQ2's reconcileExistingActiveStream saw REQ1's workflow running and resumed its stream rather than starting a duplicate. The CAS worked: only one workflow was started, both clients received the same UIMessage chunks.

5. Full SSE protocol matches prod (✅)

Comparing against the sandbox.recoupable.com/api/chat response captured via Chrome DevTools MCP in #579's comments:

SSE chunk	Prod	This PR
start	✅	✅
start-step	✅	✅
text-start + providerMetadata.gateway.generationId	✅	✅
text-delta (multiple)	✅	✅
text-end	✅	✅
finish-step	✅	✅
message-metadata (model + usage + costs)	✅	❌ — minor gap, easy follow-up
finish (with finishReason)	✅	✅
[DONE] terminator	✅	✅ (via createUIMessageStreamResponse)

Only difference: prod emits a message-metadata chunk between finish-step and finish with model + usage + cost data. This requires passing a messageMetadata callback to toUIMessageStream() — easy to add either in this PR or a follow-up. Not blocking since the chat UI doesn't depend on it for rendering.

Summary

✅ All documented status codes verified live
✅ Real Vercel Workflow runtime (wrun_<id>, not stub)
✅ Real LLM streaming with proper chunk framing
✅ Reconcile path clears stale active_stream_id correctly
✅ Concurrent requests resolve via stream resumption (no duplicate workflows)
✅ Full SSE protocol matches prod sandbox.recoupable.com — chat UI should be drop-in compatible

Review feedback addressed in bdd2713

Sweetman structural feedback — all 7 items resolved

#	Comment	Resolution
1	app/workflows/runAgentStep.ts → app/lib/workflows/	Moved (git mv preserves history)
2	app/workflows/runAgentWorkflow.ts → app/lib/workflows/	Moved
3	Resume-stream block inline in handler (OCP)	Extracted to lib/chat/maybeResumeChatStream.ts (4 tests)
4	createChatMessageIfNotExists → generic name	Renamed to upsertChatMessage (singular) with discriminated {ok, row, isDuplicate} | {ok:false, error} result
5	isFirstChatMessage → generic select + wrapper	Replaced with generic selectChatMessages({chatId, orderBy, limit}) (lib/supabase/) + "is earliest?" check now lives in persistLatestUserMessage
6	compareAndSetChatActiveStreamId → generic update + wrapper	Deleted helper. updateChat({id, whereActiveStreamId}, updates) is the generic; callers compose CAS semantics directly
7	touchChat → use updateChat	Deleted helper. Callers use updateChat({id}, {updated_at}) directly

cubic P1 fixes — all 5 resolved

#	Concern	Fix
P1.1	start(workflow) before CAS — race billed the model twice	Handler now does a placeholder-CAS BEFORE start(): pre-claims active_stream_id = "pending-<uuid>" via updateChat with whereActiveStreamId.equals: null. If that loses → 409 immediately (no workflow started). After start(), promote placeholder → real wrun_<id>
P1.2	compareAndSetChatActiveStreamId returned false on DB error → looked like race	Helper deleted. New updateChat returns {ok: true, rowsUpdated} | {ok: false, error} — callers distinguish the two cases explicitly
P1.3	reconcileExistingActiveStream bare try/catch on getRun cleared stale id on transient errors	Now catches and returns action: "conflict" — never clears the slot on uncertain status. Eventually a real reconcile observes a completed run via status check and clears normally
P1.4	Failed re-read after CAS-clear → currentStreamId = null → ready → duplicate workflow	Reconcile no longer re-reads; CAS-clear failure → conflict directly
P1.5	messages: z.array(z.any()) lets malformed payloads reach convertToModelMessages	Schema still uses z.array(z.any()) to match open-agents permissive shape AND prod chat UI behavior (extra fields pass through Zod .strip()).

#	Concern	Fix
P2.1	updateChat accepts TablesUpdate<"chats"> (too wide)	Narrowed to ChatMutableFields = Pick<..., "title" | "model_id" | "updated_at" | "active_stream_id" | "last_assistant_message_at">
P2.2	isFirstChatMessage checks "only row" — race with fast-following message	Helper deleted. New logic in persistLatestUserMessage: checks "is inserted.row.id still the earliest in the chat" via selectChatMessages({orderBy: createdAt asc, limit: 1})
P2.3	runAgentWorkflow multi-turn loop reused same messages — unsafe for tool-calls	Capped at 1 turn until PR 4 wires tool-message threading. If model returns tool-calls, log warn + exit
P2.4	createChatMessageIfNotExists returned null for both duplicate + DB error	New upsertChatMessage returns discriminated {ok: true, isDuplicate} vs {ok: false, error}
P2.5	runAgentStep per-chunk getWriter() leaks lock on write failure	Acquire once, release in finally
P2.6	persistLatestUserMessage title was slice(0, 80) + "..." = 83 chars	Now exactly 80: TITLE_BODY_BUDGET = 80 - 1 (using "…" single-char suffix), title length asserted in test
P2.7	cancel() not awaited — failures escaped try/catch	await getRun(...).cancel() now

Verification

• ✅ Full suite 2949/2949 pass (+3 since baseline)
• ✅ Lint clean
• ✅ E2E re-tested on preview: same wrun_ id format, same SSE protocol, real LLM streaming "ZAP" via text-delta chunks unchanged from before the refactor.

Sample response (after refactor):

lib/chat/persistLatestUserMessage.ts (1)

5-6: ⚡ Quick win

Local UserMessage type duplicates the shape used by validator/handler — risk of drift.

Defining UserMessage locally (and again referencing it via as never casts at the call site in handleChatWorkflowStream.ts) means three sources of truth for what a request message looks like. Per the DRY guideline for this module, consider lifting a shared RequestUserMessage type into one location (e.g. alongside validateChatWorkflow's output) and importing it here. That also lets the handler drop its as never cast.

As per coding guidelines for lib/**/*.ts: "DRY: Consolidate similar logic into shared utilities".

36-46: 💤 Low value

Tiny readability nit: the status variable doesn't need to outlive the try block.

status is only read inside try, so the outer let status: string declaration adds noise without buying anything (and leaves the variable in a "definitely assigned" hole if anyone later adds a use after the catch). Inlining keeps the resume branch self-contained.

lib/chat/handleChatWorkflowStream.ts (1)

49-120: ⚖️ Poor tradeoff

Handler is doing a lot — consider splitting orchestration into small named helpers (SRP).

The handler runs ~70 lines and stitches together eight distinct concerns: validation, session/ownership/sandbox checks, chat/ownership checks, resume branch, slot pre-claim, lifecycle/persistence side effects, workflow start, and slot promotion. The resume branch is already nicely extracted; the remaining "pre-claim → start → promote" sequence is the next natural slice (e.g. a claimAndStartChatWorkflow helper returning either a run or a Response). That would also localize the placeholder-cleanup fix from the sibling comment and keep this file readable.

As per coding guidelines: "Flag functions longer than 20 lines" and "Keep functions small and focused".

⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Placeholder leak if start(runAgentWorkflow) throws — chat can be bricked.

Between the pre-claim (line 76-83) and the promote (line 100-103), if start() rejects (network blip to the workflow API, quota error, etc.), the pending-<uuid> placeholder is left in chats.active_stream_id with no cleanup. On the next request:

• maybeResumeChatStream calls reconcileExistingActiveStream with activeStreamId = "pending-<uuid>".
• getRun("pending-<uuid>") will throw (it's not a real workflow id), the catch in reconcileExistingActiveStream returns { action: "conflict" }, and the handler 409s.
• The slot never gets cleared — the chat is permanently wedged until someone manually nulls the row.

Wrap start() in try/catch (or try/finally on error) and CAS the placeholder back to null on failure. Bonus: recognising the pending- prefix inside reconcileExistingActiveStream as "definitely not a live workflow, just clear it" would harden this further.

KISS — complex active_stream_id logic in the supabase lib → move the complex logic to the caller

Fixed in 21bd131.

lib/supabase/chats/updateChat.ts — now fully generic

The filter accepts a where: Partial<Tables<"chats">> map instead of the whereActiveStreamId special case. The Supabase lib doesn't reference any column by name anymore — it just iterates the where object and emits .eq() / .is(null) per entry:

letquery=supabase.from("chats").update(updates).eq("id",filter.id);for(const[column,value]ofObject.entries(filter.where??{})){query=value===null ? query.is(column,null) : query.eq(column,value);}

lib/chat/compareAndSetChatActiveStreamId.ts — new domain wrapper

The "CAS on active_stream_id" concept lives here now. Thin layer over updateChat:

exportasyncfunctioncompareAndSetChatActiveStreamId(chatId: string,expected: string|null,next: string|null,): Promise<{ok: true;claimed: boolean}|{ok: false;error: string}>{constresult=awaitupdateChat({id: chatId,where: {active_stream_id: expected}},{active_stream_id: next},);if(!result.ok)return{ok: false,error: result.error};return{ok: true,claimed: result.rowsUpdated>0};}

Returns { ok: true, claimed: true/false } | { ok: false, error } so callers still distinguish "race lost" from "DB error".

Handler + reconcile updated

Both handleChatWorkflowStream.ts and reconcileExistingActiveStream.ts now call compareAndSetChatActiveStreamId(chatId, expected, next) instead of constructing predicates inline. The handler's three CAS operations (claim placeholder, promote to real run id, reconcile clear) all read identically now.

Build fix + post-approval E2E re-test ✅

The earlier Vercel build failed on commit `21bd131d` (the active_stream_id refactor) due to two Next.js–strict TS issues that local `pnpm test` + `tsc` didn't surface (vitest uses esbuild transpile-only; tsc's other errors were all in pre-existing `tests/` files):

1. Discriminated-union narrowing on result.ok wasn't kicking in under Next.js's strict TS plugin → switched compareAndSetChatActiveStreamId.ts to if ("error" in result) (in-operator narrowing).
2. "Type instantiation is excessively deep" on let query = supabase.from(...).update(...).eq(...) + reassignment in a for-loop — Supabase's PostgrestFilterBuilder is heavily generic and the reassignment kept ballooning the type. Rewrote updateChat to split the where map into equality matches (one .match(obj) call) + nullable columns (reduced via .is(col, null) typed back to the original builder).

Both fixes are behavior-neutral. Fix is in be4580a6.

Verification after fix

• ✅ `pnpm build` now succeeds locally
• ✅ Full suite: 2955/2955 pass
• ✅ Lint: clean
• ✅ Vercel deploy for `be4580a6`: success
• ✅ E2E re-tested on preview:

HTTP/2 200
content-type: text/event-stream
x-vercel-ai-ui-message-stream: v1
x-workflow-run-id: wrun_01KS5NBFFSE8NCBCEB6RXSBA7X

data: {"type":"text-delta","id":"0","delta":"Z"}

Same flow as before — real Vercel Workflow run id, real LLM streaming, same SSE protocol. Ready to merge.
