Wire /agents and /skills through the Rust command stack so they can run as direct CLI subcommands, direct slash invocations, and resume-safe slash commands. The handlers now provide structured usage output, skills discovery also covers legacy /commands markdown entries, and the reporting/tests line up more closely with the original TypeScript behavior where feasible.
Constraint: The Rust port does not yet have the original TypeScript TUI menus or plugin/MCP skill registry, so text reports approximate those views
Rejected: Rebuild the original interactive React menus in Rust now | too large for the current CLI parity slice
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Keep /skills discovery and the Skill tool aligned if command/skill registry parity expands later
Tested: cargo test --workspace
Tested: cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
Tested: cargo run -q -p claw-cli -- agents --help
Tested: cargo run -q -p claw-cli -- /agents
Not-tested: Live Anthropic-backed REPL execution of /agents or /skills
Wire the Rust slash-command surface to expose the upstream-style /plugin entry and add /agents and /skills handling. The plugin command keeps the existing management actions while help, completion, REPL dispatch, and tests now acknowledge the upstream aliases and inventory views.\n\nConstraint: Match original TypeScript command names without regressing existing /plugins management flows\nRejected: Add placeholder commands only | users would still lack practical slash-command output\nConfidence: high\nScope-risk: narrow\nReversibility: clean\nDirective: Keep /plugin as the canonical help entry while preserving /plugins and /marketplace aliases unless upstream naming changes again\nTested: cargo fmt --all; cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings; cargo test --workspace\nNot-tested: Manual interactive REPL execution of /agents and /skills against a live user configuration
The plugin loader already pruned stale registry entries, but stale enabled state
could linger in settings.json after bundled or installed plugin discovery
cleaned up missing installs. This change removes those orphaned enabled flags
when stale registry entries are dropped so loader-managed state stays coherent.
Constraint: Commit only plugin loader/registry code in this pass
Rejected: Leave stale enabled flags in settings.json | state drift would survive loader self-healing
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Any future loader-side pruning should remove matching enabled state in the same code path
Tested: cargo fmt --all; cargo test -p plugins
Not-tested: Interactive CLI /plugins flows against manually edited settings.json
Add a renderer regression test for long non-JSON tool output so the CLI's fallback rendering path is covered alongside Read and structured tool payload truncation.
Constraint: This follow-up must commit only renderer-related changes
Rejected: Touch commands crate to fix unrelated slash-command work in progress | outside the requested renderer-only scope
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Keep truncation guarantees covered at the renderer boundary for both structured and raw tool payloads
Tested: cargo fmt --all; cargo test -p claw-cli tool_rendering_ -- --nocapture; cargo clippy -p claw-cli --all-targets -- -D warnings
Not-tested: cargo test --workspace and cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings currently fail in rust/crates/commands/src/lib.rs due pre-existing incomplete agents/skills changes outside this commit
Auto compaction was keying off cumulative usage and re-summarizing from the front of the session, which made long chats shed continuity after the first compaction. The runtime now compacts against the current turn's prompt pressure and preserves prior compacted context as retained summary state instead of treating it like disposable history.
Constraint: Existing /compact behavior and saved-session resume flow had to keep working without schema changes
Rejected: Keep using cumulative input tokens | caused repeat compaction after every subsequent turn once the threshold was crossed
Rejected: Re-summarize prior compacted system messages as ordinary history | degraded continuity and could drop earlier context
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Preserve compacted-summary boundaries when extending compaction again; do not fold prior compacted context back into raw-message removal
Tested: cargo fmt --check; cargo clippy -p runtime -p commands --tests -- -D warnings; cargo test -p runtime; cargo test -p commands
Not-tested: End-to-end interactive CLI auto-compaction against a live Anthropic session
