review-commit: interpret kai_view offset as the file tool does; unmappable view results are uncitable - #121
Conversation
…mappable view result is uncitable, never row-addressed
Follow-up to the declared-coordinates change. Its parser accepted only a
plain non-negative integer for kai_view's offset and, on anything else, fell
back to ROW coordinates for that source. The engine's file tool (flexInt,
kai-engine v0.6.73) accepts an integer, null, "", "0.0", " 0 ", a float and
negatives (clamped to 0). So a call written {"offset": "0.0"} produced a
row-addressed source, and a citation of "file line 1" resolved — validly, by
the row contract — to the tool-call header line. Reported by Jacob with a
reproduction.
rcViewOffset now mirrors flexInt exactly, plus the view's negative clamp. A
kai_view result whose file mapping cannot be established for any reason — an
offset the tool would refuse, no "N: text" rows, rows not starting at
offset+1 — is UNMAPPED: rendered for context with a header saying it cannot
be cited, and any citation into it is invalid (degrading its allegation as
any invalid citation does). There is no fallback to rows.
Regression tests drive the REAL file tool (tools.FileTools on a temp
workspace): fourteen offset spellings map to the same first line the tool
returned and "file line N" reaches the file's line, never the header; an
offset the tool refuses is also refused by the parser; a slice past the end
is unmapped; a truncated slice exposes only the returned lines.

… kai-cli#119–#121) Empty commit; no code change. Triggers a fresh Kai Review of this PR on the newly pinned kai-ci image (kai v0.35.84) — a large-file change, to exercise file-line citation coordinates in production.

mainafter #120 (2946733). Fixes a defect in #120's citation parser found by Jacob with a reproduction.The defect
#120's parser accepted only a plain non-negative integer for
kai_view'soffset, and on anything else fell back to row coordinates for that source. The engine's file tool (flexInt, kai-engine v0.6.73) accepts an integer,null,"","0.0"," 0 ", a float, and negatives (clamped to 0). So a call written{"offset": "0.0"}produced a row-addressed source, and a citation of "file line 1" resolved — validly under the row contract — to the tool-call header line. A citation that resolves to the wrong thing silently is worse than one that fails.What changed
rcViewOffsetmirrors the tool'sflexIntexactly (integer as-is;null→ 0; string trimmed,""→ 0, else%gfloat truncated; JSON float truncated; the view's negative clamp to 0). An offset the tool would refuse is refused here too.kai_viewresult whose file mapping cannot be established — unreadable arguments, no file named, an unparseable offset, noN: textrows, rows not starting atoffset+1— gets coordinateunmapped: rendered for context with a header saying it cannot be cited, and any citation into it is invalid (degrading its allegation like any invalid citation). There is no silent switch to another coordinate system.Tests — against the real file tool
review_commit_viewtool_test.gobuildstools.FileTools{Set: projects.Single(dir)}on a temp workspace and runs the realkai_view:absent,0,0.0,"0.0",null,""," 0 ",-5,"-5",3,"3",3.9," 3 ","1e1") — the parser's first line equals the tool's first returned line in every case, "file line N" cites the file's line and never the header, and the line before the slice is not citable;"offset": "abc"— the tool returns an error response (no source would exist), and the parser independently refuses it, so the two rejection sets stay aligned;kai_viewresult is unmapped and still reaches the challenger in full.Focused run ok; CI command
GOWORK=off go test -timeout 5m -skip 'TestRunCompletion' ./...— exit 0, all packages ok.Limitations
flexInt's semantics, tested against the tool at the pinned engine version; if the engine changes its normalization the test against the real tool fails — that is the intended tripwire, not a guarantee.limitis not interpreted at all: the returned rows define the range, which is why it need not be.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
