Three review findings on the bounded-chain change.
Mid-execution compression rebuilt the conversation from the in-flight
messages, which after a turn-start reuse hold only the recent turns: the
summary living in the system prompt never reached the compressor, so the
new summary replaced the old one, and the persisted point's query_index
was relative to that shortened list. The summary the agent is running
under now rides into the synthetic conversation as its latest point
(query_index -1, so every in-flight query is new), for both the database
and the in-memory path, and the database path persists the index of the
saved conversation's last row.
Saved points with an empty summary, which earlier versions wrote, were
treated as reusable: get_compressed_context sliced the raw history away
and the effective token count made the conversation look small. Point
selection everywhere now takes the latest usable point (non-blank
summary, positive token count) and falls back to the raw history when
there is none.
The chained system-head hash was committed while building the request,
so a transport failure followed by the same-primary retry omitted a
changed system message. The hash is now staged per request and committed
only when the provider records the response.
