Owner ruling (2026-10-06): every concluded problem opens a pause. The
agent may speak its closing words about the learner's last thinking
after the conclude result, then ENDS ITS TURN — a system-prompt law
deliberately, per owner correction, NOT tool-level terminate. The next
problem is never posed until the learner explicitly moves on; the pause
is the session's teaching space (repairs, clarifications, follow-ups —
still surgical, never re-teaching).
The move-on signal is a first-class input: { type: "next" } appends a
practice-next marker (content = single-sourced NEXT_PROBLEM_TEXT — the
model's unambiguous go-ahead: pose per the selection rules or wrap if
the arc is complete). Honest 400s: practice sessions only, nothing
active (mid-problem input rides the dock), riding after any pending
dismissal synthesis exactly like text.
The fast path (owner approved: composer-band chip + Enter-on-empty):
- Composer.enterAction gains "next" — Enter on an EMPTY composer in
the pause fires the signal; typing anything makes Enter a send again;
busy (steer/stop) outranks the pause.
- The Next chip hovers at the composer band's top-right (pick-pill
chrome register) whenever the pause is live and a problem has ever
been posed; the placeholder becomes the hint ("Ask about this
problem — or press Enter for the next one…", exact);
- the transcript renders the signal as a compact centered NEXT PROBLEM
line (mono-caps chrome); session-core appends it optimistically.
CONCLUDE_ACK_TEXT rewritten to carry the law; doctrine §VIII gains the
pause law (owner-sanctioned edit #3); 00-base's conclude/dismissal
bullets rewritten + the between-problems section added.
Owner round 2 (2026-10-05), Slice H: the Nudge/Commit two-lane buttons
are gone. One Send; Enter sends, Shift+Enter is a newline. Whether a
submission claims an answer is apparent from the thinking itself — the
agent reads it (hint ladder for traces, moves+verdict for claims).
- The thinking input loses the commit field end-to-end: ChatInput,
parseChatInput, newThinkingMessage (details and the model-facing label
both collapse to the single 'Your thinking'), the optimistic marker.
- Legacy records' commit flags are deliberately unread.
- Doctrine: the two labeled channels become one read instruction; 'answer
commits' section retitled 'Claimed answers' — a claim is not a
progress signal.
- ThinkingCard: one label, collapsed arrival (the unified row).
- The dock placeholder no longer explains lanes that no longer exist.
Owner round (2026-10-05): the problem pose only really needs statement,
mode, target, modelSolution; conclude needs no reveal field.
- problemInputObject drops decisionPoints, expectedWrongMoves, strategy,
rationale. Halves the pose payload (the GLM incident's failing args
were 3.3KB — a direct weak-model hardening).
- concludeInputObject drops solutionReveal: the reveal is the
modelSolution committed at pose time, shown verbatim at conclude.
- Doctrine pass (00-base mechanics, 10-doctrine V.4/V.5): the commitment
is the solution alone; the reveal instruction points at it.
Fixtures slimmed to the new shapes (flow, agents, heal). ConcludeCard's
render of legacy solutionReveal input stays until the card redesign
lands (Slice C).
- tools/practice.ts: problem (terminate pose; commitment hidden in args)
and conclude (non-terminating; outcome/verdict/reveal/rung/missClass/
retest), gated by activeProblemOf — pose-while-active and conclude-
with-nothing-active both return invalidInputResult.
- prompts/practice/00-base.md (voice + accuracy + tool mechanics) and
10-doctrine.md (the owner's doctrine verbatim; one approved edit —
§I material arrival generalized). Practice composes its own directory
ALONE: no teaching base, no shared fragments.
- createPracticeAgent (teacher-agent.ts); chat-handler branch — kind
'practice' builds the practitioner from turn 1 and skips extraction.
- problemResult/concludeResult acks in tool-execute (conclude text
single-sourced: CONCLUDE_ACK_TEXT).
