21 tests pinning the salvaged #44166 behavior: - marker emit + extractor round trip (patterns adapted from PR #32375 by @LeonSGP43, with credit) - no-duplicate re-injection when the canonical marker survived (the original PR's presence-check defect) - Phase-1 protection for just-loaded / user-referenced skills, and the Pass-4 pressure override that keeps #61932 fixed - deterministic marker survival through a REAL compress() with a mocked aux LLM: drop → re-injected, keep → not duplicated, static-fallback path, iterative re-compression via rehydrated handoff - markers never classify as handoff content (classify_summary_content / _strip_context_summary_handoff_message untouched) - SKILLS_GUIDANCE Skill Safety Rule renders with real newlines

"""Ghost-skill defense tests (#32106, salvage of PR #44166).
|
|
|
|
When compaction reduces an old ``skill_view`` result to a metadata-only
|
|
summary, the model still believes the skill is loaded even though its
|
|
instructions are gone. The defense has three layers:
|
|
|
|
- P0/P1: the pruned tool-result summary carries a canonical
|
|
``[SKILL_PRUNED: ...]`` marker with the exact reload call, and the
|
|
system prompt (SKILLS_GUIDANCE) tells the model how to react to it.
|
|
- Phase-1 protection: a skill loaded just before compaction (or actively
|
|
referenced in the protected tail) keeps its full body through the
|
|
ordinary prune passes.
|
|
- P2: markers entering the summarizer are extracted BEFORE the aux LLM
|
|
call and deterministically re-injected if the model paraphrased them
|
|
away — including on the static fallback path.
|
|
