Línea de trabajo

The payload names only the desktop_insert tool, the LITERAL_INSERT_FAILED error, and the message "The native window ID could not be read", so start by finding where that error is raised and where the window ID is read before any input is posted. Decide first whether the read is transient; that decision picks the fix, either a retry before delivery or an outcome of refused instead of unknown. Done means the failure path reports the correct outcome and a test covers it, which likely needs a TextEdit window and maintainer input on the design.

Descripción

Found in the Ace desktop tools study (githubnext/ace#427). It happened twice in about 70 inserts into a TextEdit document, with no other interference.

Observed: desktop_insert returned outcome: unknown, consumption: unverified, LITERAL_INSERT_FAILED: "Background keyboard preparation did not finish; observe before another input." The cause was "The native window ID could not be read." The hint: "Observe the exact window again; no foreground fallback or guessed click is permitted." Nothing had been inserted either time, and the clipboard was restored. Each agent re-inspected and inserted once more, which worked.

  • D3c, Canary 0.0.46+684262d, line 9 of 15, window 11145. This was after the channel worker restarted, but several inserts had succeeded since.
  • D4, Canary 0.0.46+8fbfcc3, line 7 of 12, window 11314. Another channel's agent was working in a second TextEdit window at the same time.

Why it matters: each failure costs a re-inspect and a retry, and the outcome is unknown even though nothing was delivered. If the window ID read is transient, retrying it before any input unit is posted would keep the outcome exact. If it isn't transient, the refusal should say it happened before delivery (refused, not unknown).
