Generalizes #32663 (@ehz0ah). The slash-skill scaffolding pollution
affected every auto-syncing memory provider — mem0, hindsight, retaindb,
byterover, honcho, supermemory all store/embed the raw user turn, so a
/skill invocation poisoned their stores with the full skill body, not just
openviking.
- Lift the contributor's parser into agent/skill_commands.py as the canonical
extract_user_instruction_from_skill_message(), co-located with the message
builders so the markers can't drift.
- Strip once in MemoryManager.{prefetch_all,queue_prefetch_all,sync_all} —
fixes the whole provider fan-out, bare /skill turns are skipped entirely.
- OpenViking's _derive_openviking_user_text() now delegates to the shared
helper as defense-in-depth (no duplicated marker literals).
- Marker-drift regression now asserts against the canonical skill_commands
constants; add manager-level coverage proving every provider gets clean text.
_build_memory_uri produced URIs of the form:
viking://user/{user}/memories/{subdir}/mem_{slug}.md
The /agent/{agent}/ segment was missing, causing every agent under
the same user to write into the same flat namespace. In multi-agent
deployments agents silently overwrite each other's memories and
vector retrieval cross-pollinates results.
self._agent was already populated correctly (from OPENVIKING_AGENT
env var, default 'hermes') and sent via X-OpenViking-Agent header —
it was simply not interpolated into the URI.
Fix: add the missing segment so URIs follow the documented shape:
viking://user/{user}/agent/{agent}/memories/{subdir}/mem_{slug}.md
Tests: 4 new regression tests in TestOpenVikingMemoryUriBuilder,
13/13 passed (9 existing + 4 new).
Adds a deterministic pre-check on top of htsh's exception-based fallback:
before calling /content/abstract or /content/overview on a non-pseudo URI,
probe /api/v1/fs/stat. If the server says the URI is a file, route straight
to /content/read instead of eating a failing 500 round-trip.
This is the same idea pty819 and chennest independently landed in PRs
#12757 and #12937 — merged here on top of htsh's broader fix so we keep
pseudo-URI normalization and v0.3.3 browse-shape handling while avoiding
the slow exception path on servers that return a raised 500 every time.
The exception fallback from #5886 stays in place for environments where
fs/stat is unavailable or returns an unfamiliar shape.
Also credits pty819, chennest, and htsh in AUTHOR_MAP so future release
notes attribute them correctly.
OpenViking returns 500 for /content/abstract and /content/overview when URI points to mem_*.md files.
Add resilient fallback to /content/read for non-pseudo summary file URIs while preserving pseudo summary normalization.
Also add regression tests for fallback behavior.
