Reasoning now flows as its own stream — symmetric to the answer's
``delta`` / ``stream_end`` pair — instead of being shipped as one
oversized progress message. This lets WebUI render a live "Thinking…"
bubble that updates in place, then auto-collapses when the stream
closes. Other channels remain plugin no-ops by default.
## Protocol
New metadata: ``_reasoning_delta`` (chunk) and ``_reasoning_end``
(close marker). ChannelManager routes both to the dedicated plugin
hooks below; the legacy one-shot ``_reasoning`` is kept for back-compat
and BaseChannel expands it into a single delta + end pair so plugins
only ever implement the streaming primitives.
WebSocket emits two new events:
- ``reasoning_delta`` (event, chat_id, text, optional stream_id)
- ``reasoning_end`` (event, chat_id, optional stream_id)
## BaseChannel surface
- ``send_reasoning_delta(chat_id, delta, metadata)`` — no-op default
- ``send_reasoning_end(chat_id, metadata)`` — no-op default
- ``send_reasoning(msg)`` — back-compat wrapper, base impl forwards
to the streaming primitives
A channel adds reasoning support by overriding the two streaming
primitives. Telegram / Slack / Discord / Feishu / WeChat / Matrix keep
the base no-ops until their bubble UIs are adapted; reasoning silently
drops at dispatch, never as a stray text message.
## AgentHook
Adds ``emit_reasoning_end`` to the hook lifecycle. ``_LoopHook`` tracks
whether a reasoning segment is open and closes it on:
- the first answer delta arriving (so the UI locks the bubble before
the answer renders below),
- ``on_stream_end``,
- one-shot ``reasoning_content`` / ``thinking_blocks`` after a single
non-streaming response.
## WebUI
- ``UIMessage.reasoning`` is now a single accumulated string with a
companion ``reasoningStreaming`` flag.
- ``useNanobotStream`` consumes ``reasoning_delta`` / ``reasoning_end``;
legacy ``kind: "reasoning"`` is auto-translated to a delta + end.
- New ``ReasoningBubble``: shimmer header + auto-expanded while
streaming, collapses to a clickable "Thinking" pill once closed,
respects ``prefers-reduced-motion``.
- Answer deltas adopt the reasoning placeholder so the bubble and the
answer share one assistant row.
## Tests
- ``tests/channels/test_channel_manager_reasoning.py`` — manager routes
delta + end, drops on channel opt-out, expands one-shot back-compat.
- ``tests/channels/test_websocket_channel.py`` — new ``reasoning_delta``
/ ``reasoning_end`` frames, empty-chunk safety, no-subscriber safety,
back-compat expansion.
- ``tests/agent/test_runner_reasoning.py`` — runner closes the segment
on streaming answer start and after one-shot reasoning.
- WebUI ``useNanobotStream`` + ``message-bubble`` cover the new
protocol and the shimmer styling.
## Docs
``docs/configuration.md`` and ``docs/websocket.md`` document the new
events and the plugin contract.

Reasoning was being shipped to every channel as a generic progress
message with a `_reasoning: true` flag. Two problems with that:
1. Channels without a low-emphasis UI primitive (Telegram, Slack,
Discord, Feishu...) would dump raw model thoughts as ordinary
replies, polluting the conversation.
2. The agent loop double-gated by inspecting `channels_config`, which
coupled the loop to display policy.
Treat reasoning as its own plugin action — `BaseChannel.send_reasoning`
defaults to a documented no-op; channels that have a fitting affordance
override. ChannelManager routes `_reasoning` outbounds to that method
only when the channel opts in via `show_reasoning` (camelCase alias
`showReasoning` mirrors `sendProgress`). Plugins that don't override
silently drop reasoning — "no fit, no leak" is the contract.
Reference implementation lands for WebSocket / WebUI: a new
`kind: "reasoning"` frame, parked on the active assistant bubble as a
collapsible `Thinking` group above the answer. CLI keeps its existing
direct path (it doesn't go through the bus). `ChannelsConfig.show_reasoning`
flips to `true` by default — only adapted channels surface anything,
others stay quiet.
Loop net diff is -3 lines: the `channels_config.show_reasoning` check
moves out, leaving emit_reasoning a one-liner that publishes and trusts
the channel to decide.

- Remove auto-selection of the most recent session on initial load,
so the app opens to a blank new-chat page instead of the last session.
- Preserve active session state when navigating to/from settings:
keep ThreadShell mounted (hidden via CSS) so scroll position, message
cache, and streaming state are not lost.
- Update onBackToChat to return to blank page when no session was active
instead of falling back to the most recent session.
- Update related test expectations to match the new navigation behavior.
The ask_user tool used AskUserInterrupt(BaseException) for mid-turn
blocking, creating heavy coupling across runner, loop, and session
management. The model now asks questions naturally in response text,
the turn ends normally, and the user's next message starts a new turn
with session history providing continuity.
Removed:
- nanobot/agent/tools/ask.py (tool, interrupt, helpers)
- tests/agent/test_ask_user.py
- webui/src/components/thread/AskUserPrompt.tsx
- AskUserInterrupt handling in runner.py
- Dual-path message building in loop.py
- Pending ask detection via history scanning
- button_prompt/buttons emission in WebSocket channel
- ask_user references in Slack channel docstrings
Preserved (MessageTool uses these independently):
- OutboundMessage.buttons field
- Channel button rendering (Telegram, Slack, WebSocket)
Add a focused regression test for the non-secure-context WebUI entry shim so missing crypto.randomUUID no longer depends on manual verification.
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
`crypto.randomUUID` only exists in secure contexts (HTTPS or localhost).
Over LAN HTTP it is undefined, so `ChatPane`'s welcome-message flush and
streaming-message handlers crash mid-render with `TypeError`, unmounting
the React tree and leaving the user a blank page.
Install a Math.random-backed v4-ish fallback at app entry, gated on the
feature being missing. This mirrors the shim already used in the test
setup and covers all six call sites (`ChatPane.tsx`, `useNanobotStream.ts`)
without touching them. These IDs are client-side message keys with no
security role, so non-cryptographic randomness is fine.

When host is set to 0.0.0.0, the gateway now enforces that either token
or token_issue_secret must be configured — it refuses to start otherwise.
Bootstrap endpoint behavior:
- token_issue_secret configured: always validate regardless of source IP
(handles reverse-proxy scenarios where all connections appear as localhost)
- No secret: only localhost can bootstrap (local dev mode)
The frontend shows an authentication form when bootstrap returns 401/403,
persists the secret in localStorage, and retries automatically on reload.
The previous LAN-access fix (PR #3656) relaxed the bootstrap localhost
check when host was 0.0.0.0, but did not require any authentication —
any device on the network could obtain a token without credentials.
New behavior:
- token_issue_secret configured: always validate, regardless of source
IP (handles reverse-proxy scenarios where all connections appear as
localhost).
- No secret configured: only localhost can bootstrap (local dev mode).
This supersedes the host-based check from PR #3656.
The webui bootstrap endpoint (/webui/bootstrap) rejected all non-localhost
connections with HTTP 403, preventing the embedded webui from working when
accessed from another device on the LAN — even when host was set to 0.0.0.0.
Skip the localhost check when the server is explicitly bound to 0.0.0.0 or ::,
since that signals intent to accept external connections.
Align the WebUI sidebar and chat chrome with the updated design, and generate WebUI session titles asynchronously without blocking turns.
