Reply to the metadata-role skill comment: Fixed in 5d91538. The skill now explains that the cached renderer inserts CacheBoundary() before live context, the formatter passes that UnifiedLLM object through unchanged, and its public JSON view has role=metadata. That role denotes a framework control record, not a model conversation message; UnifiedLLM consumes it before provider dispatch and applies the provider cache policy. Direct callers can insert the same object. Also quoted the existing compatibility frontmatter value so its colon is valid YAML. NOOA skill loading/frontmatter checks and the 2,590-test affected suite pass; Wren accepted the update. GitHub rejected an inline reply because this account already has a pending review. I have left that review untouched and posted the answer here instead. The earlier CodeRabbit cache-policy and per-call-override findings were rechecked and remain addressed. @coderabbitai review |

Published head:
b926359e. Rebased on #318’s five Severin fixes; cache-policy changes are unchanged. The seven-model live gate passed on #324, including all three closed-provider caching/resume cases.Summary
Depends on #318; supersedes the closed #313.
The renderer places a
CacheBoundary()before live context. LikeLLMResponse, it belongs to the UnifiedLLM interface and travels through the message list unchanged:UnifiedLLM consumes the object after projecting assistant turns and selects the last eligible stable cache block. The formatter does not translate the boundary or understand caching: the formatter and RenderedMessage have no changes relative to #318.
Why
Exact replay preserves a reusable prefix, but does not select where a provider writes its cache. Changing trailing context needs a breakpoint before it. Positional rules such as “all system messages” or “last tool result” can select changing content.
This PR removes those positional methods and their configuration. One boundary policy replaces them, without a second compatibility path.
Code walkthrough — what changed and why
llm_types.py, exported bynooa.unifiedllm):CacheBoundaryis a small frozen Pydantic model with a read-only public mapping, likeLLMResponse. This keeps SDK utilities compatible without consumer-specific workarounds. It carries no provider fields. Ordinary readers can still usemessage["role"]andmessage.get(...).replay_messagepath. The formatter passes it through like an assistant response. No adjacent-message flag, dictionary encoding, or cache-specific formatter branch remains. The standalone Anthropic exporter continues omitting framework metadata.cache_policy.py: preserve the object during provider projection, then consume it and mark the last eligible stable block. This matters because one assistant response can expand into several wire items. Only changed target containers are copied; unrelated messages and large string leaves are shared. Duplicate boundaries and raw dictionary markers raise actionable errors before transport. The fake client consumes boundaries too, keeping its recorded messages provider-shaped.cache_control_injection_pointswith constructor-onlycache_breakpoint. Removed settings name the replacement andCacheBoundary()in their migration error. Per-call/extra-body misuse fails before dispatch. Explicit mappings cannot silently follow a model switch.Configuration
cache_breakpoint="auto"(CompletionClient default): recognized Anthropic routes receive a native breakpoint; other routes retain provider-default caching."anthropic": explicit Anthropic Chat mapping for a declared route."openai": explicit OpenAI Responses mapping, opt-in on supporting routes.None(ResponsesClient default): no NOOA-generated provider markers; the boundary is still consumed. ResponsesClient accepts onlyNoneor"openai".Without a boundary, direct callers default to leading system/developer instructions. To cache completed history, put
CacheBoundary()after it. Rawnooa_cache_boundarydictionaries are not a second supported input representation.OpenAI explicit mode with no eligible stable block warns and creates no cache writes; it does not silently revert to implicit writes on dynamic content. No cache hit is guaranteed: edits, expiry, routing, request settings and provider thresholds still matter. Gemini remains on implicit caching; this PR does not manage cached-content resources, add effort controls, or change the TUI.
Validation
Current revision:
286e1c9e4f6f1d3a9114b764e0a4cdb158adac41.SDK-compatibility follow-up: 2,410 passed, 6 skipped, 67 deselected across UnifiedLLM, context blocks, runtime, tracing, Relay and nested history. The original safety-net test is restored unchanged. A new regression compares LiteLLM token counting and JSON/Mapping access against the equivalent public dictionary. Repository-wide lint and formatting pass. Wren independently accepted this exact revision after 2,470 affected-suite tests passed. They verified SDK token counting, public dict/JSON views, relay identity, read-only assignment, and the restored safety-net test.
