cancel_by_session() only cancelled asyncio tasks, leaving child
processes from exec sessions orphaned. Since each SubagentManager
now owns a dedicated ExecSessionManager, terminate those sessions
by owner_session_key after cancelling tasks.
Add ExecSessionManager.terminate_by_owner() to kill all sessions
for a given owner, and call it from cancel_by_session().
Add _QWEN_THINKING_MODELS to _MODEL_THINKING_STYLES with enable_thinking style. Prevents Qwen 3.5/3.6/3.7 models from exposing raw reasoning content in chat responses. Closes#4934
Symptom
-------
LLM requests intermittently fail with:
'utf-8' codec can't encode characters in position N-N+1: surrogates not allowed
when messages contain emoji-heavy content (e.g. HTML with mixed emoji + JSON round-trips).
This blocks the affected session until the session file is quarantined.
Root cause
----------
Surrogate sanitization was only applied at the CLI entry point
(nanobot/cli/commands.py: _sanitize_surrogates). Requests entering
the LLM provider layer through other channels (Feishu, cron, webui,
tool results, memory injection) had no defensive cleaning, so any
message that happened to carry unpaired UTF-16 surrogates (from an
upstream JSON round-trip with ensure_ascii=True on ill-formed input,
memory rehydration, or third-party content) would blow up at
json.dumps -> HTTP encode time inside the provider client.
Fix
---
1. Extract sanitize_surrogates() and sanitize_surrogates_deep() into
nanobot/utils/helpers.py as the single source of truth. Both use
utf-16-le round-tripping with errors='surrogatepass' / 'replace',
so paired surrogates reconstruct back into their real code point
and lone surrogates collapse to U+FFFD.
2. Make nanobot/cli/commands.py:_sanitize_surrogates a thin wrapper
that re-exports the shared helper (backward compatible).
3. Add defense-in-depth at the LLM provider boundary in
nanobot/providers/base.py:_sanitize_empty_content by running
sanitize_surrogates_deep over each message and its content blocks
right before requests are serialized to JSON.
Non-goals
---------
- truncate_text() is intentionally left untouched. Python str slicing
cannot split a single code point into surrogate halves, so it is
not the source of lone surrogates.
- session/manager storage layer is untouched. Archived sessions
reproduced the failure only through the request path, not through
storage.
Verification
------------
- New regression suite tests/providers/test_sanitize_surrogates.py
covers: paired surrogate reconstruction, lone surrogate replacement,
identity return on clean input (zero allocation), deep recursion on
dict/list/tuple, provider _sanitize_empty_content integration, and
full utf-8 encodability of the sanitized request body.
- 14/14 new tests pass; full existing test module also green.
- Replayed 58 archived real session messages plus adversarial
lone-surrogate injection through the provider path with no encode
errors after the fix.
Impact
------
- No behaviour change for clean inputs (sanitize_surrogates_deep is
an identity return when no surrogate is present).
- Fails-safe: unpaired surrogates degrade to U+FFFD instead of
aborting the entire request.
jobs.json can store everyMs/atMs and next/last run timestamps as strings.
Loading left them as str, so _compute_next_run compared str to int and raised TypeError.
Coerce with an optional-int helper at from_store_dict, matching runHistory int() paths.
config.loader.load_config() intentionally returns the raw config with ${VAR}
references intact — env interpolation is a separate, explicit step
(resolve_config_env_vars) so that settings read/edit/save paths never
materialize secrets to disk or to the UI.
The transcription config path does not apply that step: both
channels/base.py (channel voice notes) and webui/transcription_ws.py (WebUI
recording) build their effective config via
resolve_transcription_config(load_config()). As a result a configured
api_key of "${GROQ_API_KEY}" (the documented way to reference secrets) is
passed to the provider verbatim, which fails with 401 Invalid API Key. No
amount of rotating the real key helps, because the literal placeholder
string is what gets sent.
Resolve the reference at the single choke point both callers share —
_resolve_transcription_api_key / _resolve_transcription_api_base — using a
new lenient loader.resolve_env_refs() helper (unset var -> empty string, so
a missing variable degrades to "not configured" rather than raising or
leaking). This fixes both entry points at once and cannot drift the way a
per-call-site fix does. Resolving inside load_config() was rejected: the
~20 settings-UI callers depend on it returning raw ${VAR} placeholders.
Literal keys are unaffected; the settings API only reads the derived
`configured` flag (never the key), which now reflects the resolved value.
