Prevent onError from replacing the tool outcome.
If onError throws, a start failure prevents operation from running. A finish failure can also replace a successful result.
Invoke onError through a non-throwing helper.

Keep activity grouping workspace-scoped.
Line 19 uses only conversationScopeId as the grouping key. Calls from different workspaces with the same conversation scope can merge into one activity group. The returned group has no workspace identifier to separate them later.
The sampled src/server.test.ts path filters listCalls by workspaceId, but that protects only that caller. Require an explicit workspaceId scope and reject mismatched calls, or partition by workspace before grouping. Add a test with identical conversation scopes in two workspaces.
As per coding guidelines, “Treat every operation as workspace-scoped and use workspaceId as the opaque handle returned by open_workspace.”

Greptile SummaryThis change adds persistent workspace activity recording and grouping. Reproduced failures show that failed workspace opens leave inaccessible records, review history can split across pages, and unrelated unscoped conversations can merge into one activity timeline. Confidence Score: 4/5Safe to merge with non-blocking follow-up work recommended for activity retention, pagination, and attribution accuracy. The reproduced issues affect activity-history correctness and cleanup rather than preventing normal workspace operations. Files Needing Attention: src/workspace-activity-store.ts needs cleanup and group-aware pagination; src/workspace-activity.ts needs safer handling for calls without a conversation scope.

When open_workspace fails before a workspace exists, activity capture writes the completed call with a NULL workspace ID. All activity lookups require a workspace ID, so this record can never be returned, and deleting workspaces cannot clean it up through the foreign-key cascade. Repeated failed opens therefore accumulate inaccessible records in the activity database. This is non-blocking, but it causes avoidable persistent storage growth. Avoid writing the call until a workspace is known, or add a bounded retrieval and cleanup path for workspace-less activity.
Artifacts
- This authored script invokes the real journal and SQLite stores, then asserts insertion, retrieval, and cascade behavior; it is the exact executable proof used for the validation.
- This captured command output shows a NULL-workspace failed-open row, empty workspace-scoped retrieval results, and the row surviving an unrelated workspace deletion cascade; the activity record is unreachable and not cleaned up.

The query applies the page limit to individual tool-call rows before activity grouping. A review with more calls than the limit is returned as an incomplete review on the first page, while its earlier calls appear later without the review boundary. This is non-blocking, but it makes paginated activity history misleading and prevents callers from reliably reconstructing a complete review. Paginate complete activity groups, or extend each raw page through the relevant group boundary before returning it.
Artifacts
- The authored TypeScript proof creates an oversized persisted review group, retrieves it unbounded and through raw-row pages, and asserts the observed grouping behavior.
- Executed `pnpm exec tsx trex-artifacts/review-group-pagination-proof.ts before` in `/home/user/repo` with exit code 0; all four persisted calls form one review group.
- Executed `pnpm exec tsx trex-artifacts/review-group-pagination-proof.ts after` in `/home/user/repo` with exit code 0; a limit of three omits call 1 from the first review group and the second page cannot identify it as part of that review.

If separate generic MCP conversations use the same workspace within two minutes without session metadata, the changed code assigns every call the shared __unscoped__ key. Their calls are then returned as one interleaved activity group instead of separate conversation histories. This is non-blocking, but it mixes tool history and attribution for users reviewing workspace activity. Preserve an origin-specific conversation identifier when available, or treat unscoped calls as independent unless an explicit correlation signal exists.
Artifacts
- The executable TypeScript harness builds equivalent scoped and unscoped sequences for one workspace and asserts their observed grouping behavior; it is the source used for the captured runs.
- Running the authored harness with two distinct session scopes returned two inferred groups, establishing the non-merged control behavior.
- Running the same harness with both session scopes absent returned one inferred group containing call IDs 101, 202, 102, and 203, proving the merge.
- The repository's focused workspace activity tests were executed and passed two of two tests, confirming the grouping module runs successfully.
- The full test command ran 144 tests with 142 passing and one unrelated oauth-store migration expectation failure; the activity-path tests shown in the run passed.

DevSpace currently loses the raw MCP tool-call trail once a request finishes, which makes it hard to inspect how a workspace reached a given review checkpoint. Persist workspace tool calls in SQLite at the centralized registration boundary, associate them with workspace/conversation metadata, and derive review-backed or timing-inferred activity groups without inventing a durable turn model.
