The managed-skill library was regenerated: 94 narrow per-incident skills
replaced by 25 broader ones (radiance-*, llamacpp-*, homepage-*, fleet/
endpoint ops). Git renders this as mass delete + mass add because whole
directories changed name; old content stays in history at 12c5e88.
Surface check: the 25 on disk are exactly the skills the harness advertises
this session.

description: "Recover a subagent's full structured report when it exited without yielding (SYSTEM WARNING, structured output unavailable)"

|
|
A subagent that solved the task but exited without calling `yield` (status `failed`, "exited without calling yield tool") usually still has its full payload in the transcript. Recover it; do not re-run the subagent.
|
|
|
|
## Procedure
|
|
1. `read agent://<id>` — the preview truncates long lines (~768 chars); the full JSON draft appears in the transcript, not here.
|
|
2. Dump the raw transcript with line truncation off and persist it:
|
|
```js
|
|
const raw = await read("history://<id>:raw");
|
|
await write("/tmp/hist.txt", raw);
|
|
```
|
|
3. Extract the report string. The transcript embeds the agent's draft as a JS object literal (`report: "...."` with escaped quotes/newlines), repeated across retries — take the longest match, then JSON-unescape:
|
|
```python
|
|
import re, json
|
|
raw = open('/tmp/hist.txt', encoding='utf-8', errors='replace').read()
|
|
best = max((m.group(1) for m in re.finditer(r'report: "((?:[^"\\]|\\.)*)"', raw)), key=len)
|
|
open('report.md','w').write(json.loads('"' + best + '"'))
|
|
```
|
|
Same pattern works for `summary:`/`files:` fields.
|
|
4. Treat recovered content as UNVERIFIED scout output: cross-check high-stakes claims at primary sources before publishing (scouts can conflate similarly-named projects; one recovery revealed "arc53's quantization pruner" when the tool was actually `p-e-w/heretic`, an abliteration tool).
|
|
|
|
## Why
|
|
- `agent://<id>` and the task-result preview truncate per line; only `history://<id>:raw` carries the full text.
|
|
- Re-spawning the subagent wastes minutes and the cap slot; the work product already exists in the transcript.
