* studio/chat: built-in code execution for Anthropic Claude 4.x
Wire Anthropic's server-side code_execution_20250825 tool to the
existing Code pill in the composer. Pill lights up only for Claude
Opus/Sonnet/Haiku 4.x models that the docs list as compatible; pairs
independently with Search. Backend appends the tool entry plus the
code-execution-2025-08-25 beta header, and translates the SSE
server_tool_use / *_tool_result blocks (bash + text_editor sub-tools)
into the _toolEvent shape the frontend renderer consumes. File
uploads via the Files API are a deliberate follow-up.
* studio/chat: enable code execution pill in in-thread composer too
thread.tsx renders its own composer with a separate CodeToolsToggle
that was still gated on supportsTools only, so the pill stayed
disabled inside an active thread even after picking Anthropic 4.x.
Surface the capability through the runtime store
(supportsBuiltinCodeExecution, set from chat-page alongside
supportsBuiltinWebSearch) and read it in the toggle.
* studio/chat: built-in code execution for OpenAI cloud gpt-5.5
Extend the Code pill to OpenAI cloud's gpt-5.5 / gpt-5.5-pro via the
shell tool on /v1/responses. Per-thread container reuse: capture the
container_id from each response on a synthetic container_ready event,
persist it onto the ThreadRecord, and pass it back as
environment.type="container_reference" on follow-up turns so the
model sees filesystem state from prior turns until OpenAI's idle
expiry. Stale ids surface a container_invalidated event that clears
the thread record so the next turn falls back to container_auto.
Gated strictly on OpenAI cloud (api.openai.com base URL) — Ollama,
llama.cpp, vLLM, and custom OpenAI-compat presets won't see the
shell tool entry even when their providerType collapses to "openai".
* studio/chat: OpenAI shell-tool container management UI
Side-panel section (settings sheet → Code Execution) for managing
OpenAI's shell-tool containers per thread. Three controls:
- New-container idle timeout (provider-level default, pre-fills the
create dialog and is used by the lazy-create path on a thread's
first turn when set to a non-default value).
- Active container picker for the active thread — pick any existing
container or stay on "Auto-create per thread".
- Inline create form (name + idle TTL) and per-row delete actions.
Three new backend endpoints under /api/inference/external/openai/
containers/{list,create,delete} proxy to OpenAI /v1/containers using
the encrypted API key. All three reject non-cloud base URLs up front
so the picker stays scoped to api.openai.com.
Deleting a container clears all thread bindings pointing at it; the
next turn falls back to auto-create.
* studio/chat: inherit container across threads + styled active picker
New threads on the same OpenAI provider now default to the most
recently used container instead of "Auto-create per thread" — both
in the chat-adapter (so a send works even if the side panel was
never opened) and in the side panel itself (auto-binds the active
thread when the dropdown loads on a thread that has no container).
Picker is visually emphasized with an accent panel and the
currently-active row in the list below is highlighted with the same
accent so the two views stay in sync.
* studio/chat: friendly English-word names for auto-created containers
Replaces the "chat-<thread-id-slug>" auto-name with a random
English-word + short hex suffix (e.g. "kestrel-3f9c"). Applies only
to the chat-adapter's lazy-create path; the OpenAI container_auto
path stays unnamed (only fires when no custom TTL is set).
* studio/chat: always pre-create OpenAI containers via frontend
Drops the TTL-based gate on the chat-adapter's lazy-create path so
every code-execution container the user ever sees in the picker has
a friendly English-word name. The backend's container_auto fallback
stays as a safety net (used only if the POST /v1/containers call
fails); in practice that branch should be rare.
* studio/chat: send OpenAI-Beta header for /v1/containers CRUD
Without OpenAI-Beta: containers=v1, OpenAI returns 200
{"deleted": true} for DELETE /v1/containers/{id} but does not
actually remove the container. The list call then keeps returning it,
making it look like Studio's "Delete container" button is broken.
Verified 2026-05-15 against api.openai.com: DELETE with the beta
header returns 200 and removes the container; the same DELETE without
the header returns the same 200 deleted:true body but the container
stays alive.
- Add _container_headers() that merges OpenAI-Beta on top of the
shared auth headers; route list / create / delete through it.
- Verify the DELETE response body reports {"deleted": true}; raise
httpx.HTTPError otherwise so the route surfaces a 5xx instead of
silently reporting success on a silent no-op.
- Add tests covering header propagation and the deleted-flag guard
(true, false, missing key, non-JSON body, 4xx passthrough).
* studio/chat: surface unpersisted-thread picker no-op as a toast
The "Active for this thread" container picker uses
db.threads.update(activeThreadId, ...), which silently returns 0 rows
affected when the thread record isn't yet in IndexedDB. That happens
on a brand-new thread where the user toggles code execution on and
opens settings before sending the first message — the chat adapter
only materializes the thread row on first send. The picker would
appear to ignore the user's selection and snap back to "Auto-create
per thread".
- onPick now awaits the update and toasts an actionable hint
("Send a message first to pin a container to this thread.") when
the update affected zero rows.
- Auto-bind effect comment clarifies why it stays best-effort silent.
The auto-bind effect itself is unchanged: it's a heuristic that
should not nag the user when it can't apply.
* studio/chat: let user pick OpenAI container before first send
Previously the picker silently no-op'd until the user sent the first
message, because Dexie's ThreadRecord is only materialized inside the
runtime-provider's `initialize` hook (assistant-ui's first-message
callback). That kept users from binding a thread to an existing
OpenAI container up front; they had to either send a message and
risk the chat adapter auto-creating one, or accept the cross-thread
inheritance default.
- Export `ensureThreadRecord` from runtime-provider so other surfaces
can materialize the row idempotently.
- In OpenAICodeExecSection.onPick, await ensureThreadRecord before
the update, with modelType="base" (the settings sheet that hosts
this section is only rendered in single-thread mode).
Behaviour after this commit:
- New thread + user picks a container in the sidebar → thread row is
created with that container_id; first send uses it, no auto-create.
- New thread + user does nothing → row still absent; first send goes
through the existing inherit/lazy-create path as before.
- The auto-bind effect remains silent best-effort: it does not
eagerly create the thread row, so it cannot pre-empt the user's
pick on a fresh thread.
* studio/chat: drop "Auto-create per thread" option, default to latest
The dropdown previously offered "Auto-create per thread" as an
explicit value (null in storage), with the chat-adapter then
inheriting from the most recent container at send-time. That made
the picker display disagree with what the backend would actually do:
the picker said "auto", but the backend was reusing an existing
container.
Behaviour after this commit, when code execution is enabled on an
OpenAI cloud provider:
- Containers list non-empty: dropdown defaults to the container with
the latest lastActiveAt, eagerly bound via ensureThreadRecord +
db.threads.update so the bind survives even when the thread row
has not been materialized by the chat adapter yet. User can pick
any other container in the list.
- Containers list empty: render a disabled placeholder "(none yet —
will be created on first send)". The chat-adapter's lazy-create
path (chat-adapter.ts:1040-1082) mints the first container on
first send and writes it back to the thread; the next refresh
surfaces it in the picker.
Expiration mid-operation is unchanged: the existing
container_invalidated _toolEvent clears the thread's stored id and
the next turn re-creates.
* studio/chat: fix picker stuck on "Selecting most recent…" + manual-create binding
Two follow-up fixes to the picker rework in d0cbeb99b.
1) The dropdown was getting stuck on the "Selecting most recent…"
placeholder option even after the auto-bind write completed,
because the select was controlled by `activeContainerId` (whatever
sits in Dexie) and there's a brief window between the auto-bind
firing and useLiveQuery propagating the new row back. Decoupled
the rendered value from the Dexie state: compute the displayed id
locally as `activeContainerId ?? sortedContainers[0]?.id`, so the
most-recent container's name shows up immediately. The auto-bind
effect still writes the bind to Dexie so the chat adapter sees it
on send. Dropped the placeholder option entirely.
2) The manual "Create container" flow (`onCreate`) bound the new
container to the active thread with a bare `db.threads.update`.
On a brand-new thread that hadn't been materialized yet, the
update affected 0 rows; the user's next send then went through
cross-thread inheritance / lazy-create and could land on a stale
container, surfacing as "container does not exist". Same fix as
`onPick`: ensureThreadRecord before update so the bind lands.
