feat(cursor): compact threads with native SDK summarize by Huijiro · Pull Request #27907 · pingdotgg/t3code

Huijiro · 2026-10-31T00:31:52Z

Problem

Cursor thread compaction still went through a /compress user-message rewrite instead of the SDK's native summarize API, so compaction could not stream summary lifecycle updates as first-class turn items.

Change

Wire compactThread to agent.summarize, project summary started/completed into compaction items, fix the stream-pump/callbackChain deadlock, teach the replay testkit summarize, and clear instruction-delivery state after compact so the next turn reinjects orchestration/device prompts.

Scope and approval

Depends on #27906 (SDK 1.2.0 + ambient MCP send restore). This PR only adds native summarize compaction on that foundation. Closed precursor: #26262 (split for one-problem).

Verification

vp test run packages/provider-cursor/src/server/adapter.test.ts packages/provider-cursor/src/server/driver.test.ts
Prior live check: /compact → run.summarize → summary-started/completed

Composer (Cursor harness) via T3 Code.

🟠 High server/adapter.ts:2577

Ordinary startTurn sends that emit summary lifecycle updates drop their final assistant answer when the SDK returns it only in result.result: handleSummaryUpdate sets context.compaction, so this branch records the answer as a compaction summary and skips the assistant fallback. Restrict this path to native summarize runs, or handle the assistant-result fallback independently.

In file @packages/provider-cursor/src/server/adapter.ts around line 2577: Ordinary `startTurn` sends that emit summary lifecycle updates drop their final assistant answer when the SDK returns it only in `result.result`: `handleSummaryUpdate` sets `context.compaction`, so this branch records the answer as a compaction summary and skips the assistant fallback. Restrict this path to native `summarize` runs, or handle the assistant-result fallback independently.

Fixed: startTurn no longer treats result.result as a compaction summary when mid-run summary updates set context.compaction; compactThread keeps its own wait path.

🟡 Medium server/adapter.ts:2879

When summary-completed arrives before sdkRun.wait resolves, result.result is stored in context.compaction.summary but never emitted, leaving consumers with the earlier summary-less compaction item. Because the status is already completed, the running check skips the only emit here; emit an updated item when a non-empty result arrives even if the status is terminal.

if (context.compaction!.status === "running") { context.compaction!.status = result.status === "finished" ? "completed" : "failed"; context.compaction!.failed = result.status !== "finished"; yield* emitCompactionItem(context); + } else if (result.result !== undefined && result.result.length > 0) { + yield* emitCompactionItem(context); }

Approvability

Verdict: Needs Human Approval

Macroscope's review found this PR requires human approval — This adds native Cursor compaction and retains ambient MCP/plugin tools alongside T3 tools. A human must confirm that broader default tool availability and its external-system exposure are intended.

Walkthrough

The Cursor provider now uses @cursor/sdk 1.2.0 and exposes native summarize runs. The adapter represents summary lifecycle updates as compaction turn items and passes MCP server options on sends. The changes also update replay support, tests, and Cursor setup documentation.

Changes: Cursor summarization and MCP support

Layer / File(s)	Summary
SDK summarize and replay support `apps/server/package.json`, `packages/provider-cursor/package.json`, `packages/provider-cursor/src/server/CursorAgentSdk.ts`, `packages/provider-cursor/src/server/CursorAgentSdk.test.ts`, `apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Adapters/CursorAdapterV2.testkit.ts`, `packages/provider-cursor/src/server/driver.test.ts`, `pnpm-workspace.yaml`	The Cursor SDK dependency is now 1.2.0. The SDK wrapper supports summarize runs, converts summary stream messages to interaction updates, and waits for run and callback processing. Replay support handles the summarize protocol event.
Adapter compaction lifecycle `packages/provider-cursor/src/server/adapter.ts`, `packages/provider-cursor/src/server/adapter.test.ts`	The adapter uses native summarization for compaction and emits compaction turn items from summary lifecycle updates. Tests check summarize calls and completed compaction items.
MCP send options and documentation `packages/provider-cursor/src/server/CursorAgentSdk.ts`, `packages/provider-cursor/src/server/adapter.ts`, `docs/orchestration-v2/orchestrator-mcp-server.md`, `docs/user/cursor.md`	The adapter includes configured MCP servers in send options. SDK diagnostics record MCP server presence and names. Documentation describes MCP configuration and Cursor setup.

Separate MCP setup from troubleshooting.

The docs/user/** rule applies to this paragraph, but it does not require removing technical details that help users complete or diagnose OAuth setup. The configuration paths, agent mcp login <server> command, credential path, and SDK error messages are actionable for MCP troubleshooting.

Keep the setup steps concise and move the SDK limitations and error messages into a short Troubleshooting note in docs/user/cursor.md. A note does not justify unrelated implementation detail; retain only details that help users configure or diagnose MCP access.

- Around line 2577-2587: In the startTurn result handler, gate the
compaction-result block on compacted as well as context.compaction being
non-null. This keeps normal-turn final answers out of compaction summaries and
allows the existing assistant-message fallback to run when no assistant text
streamed.

- Around line 490-502: Extend the SDK mock test for makeCursorAgentSdkRunner to
call session.summarize, exercising the real wrapRun stream pump and
callback-chain wait. Emit summary messages with running, completed, and error
statuses; assert the summary-started and summary-completed updates, including
failed: true for errors, and await run.wait while the asynchronous callback is
active to verify it completes without deadlocking.
