MoA full-turn traces (moa.save_traces) recorded the aggregator's acting
output only on the non-streaming path, where it's captured inline at
call time. On the streaming path — which every hermes chat --query run
and every live gateway/CLI turn takes — the aggregator's raw token
stream is handed to the live consumer, so the trace left output=null and
only pointed at the session-db assistant row. An offline audit of a
benchmark run (HermesBench drives --query) then couldn't see what the
aggregator produced without hand-joining to state.db.
Capture the resolved streamed acting text at trace-flush time (the agent
already holds it in _current_streamed_assistant_text) and fold it into
the trace, so the record is self-contained in both modes. New
output_location value inline_from_stream marks a streamed turn whose text
was captured this way; a genuinely empty acting turn (pure tool call)
still points at the session db, matching state.db exactly.
Touches only the trace side-channel — no change to the acting path,
message history, role alternation, or prompt cache.
- agent/moa_loop.py: consume_and_save_trace(..., aggregator_output_fallback)
on both the facade and the MoAClient wrapper; prefer inline capture,
fall back to the resolved streamed text.
- agent/moa_trace.py: embed the fallback; add inline_from_stream location.
- agent/conversation_loop.py: pass _current_streamed_assistant_text at flush.
- tests: 5 cases across streaming / non-streaming / empty-fallback / no-double-write.
