From 9e011a82fb639378590ade4a743701ed5057994e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Roo Code Date: Mon, 30 Jun 2025 08:44:28 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Fix race condition causing user messages to disappear after AI edits Fixes #5188 This commit resolves a race condition where user messages would sometimes or always disappear after AI file edits, depending on whether the edit succeeded or failed. Root Cause: The webview message handler was not properly awaiting the handleWebviewAskResponse call, creating a race condition where subsequent user messages could be lost if the AI was still processing or in an unstable state. Solution: 1. Fixed webviewMessageHandler.ts to properly await handleWebviewAskResponse and added error handling to prevent message loss even during failures 2. Enhanced Task.ts to immediately save user feedback messages to chat history for messageResponse types, ensuring persistence regardless of timing Changes: - src/core/webview/webviewMessageHandler.ts: Added await and try-catch for askResponse handling - src/core/task/Task.ts: Enhanced handleWebviewAskResponse to immediately save user feedback - src/core/webview/__tests__/message-race-condition.test.ts: Added comprehensive test coverage The fix ensures: - Proper async handling prevents race conditions - User messages are immediately persisted to chat history - Graceful error handling prevents message loss during failures - Both success and failure scenarios are properly handled --- src/core/task/Task.ts | 13 +++
