From 8a86a92e4833ddeca9a9466e7d9aacab3bb4de34 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ahmex000 Date: Thu, 19 Mar 2026 07:30:12 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] feat: add resume/checkpoint system for interrupted scans MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit - New strix/telemetry/checkpoint.py: Pydantic CheckpointModel + CheckpointManager with atomic writes (.tmp → rename), non-fatal errors, target-hash validation - base_agent.py: save checkpoint after every iteration (root agents only), delete on clean completion, guard against duplicate task message on resume - main.py: add --run-name, --resume, --new/--force-new CLI flags; _setup_checkpoint_on_args() handles load/validate/corrupt-recovery - cli.py: resume banner, history replay (previous vulns + last 3 thoughts), restore AgentState with fresh sandbox + extended max_iterations budget - tui.py: pre-populate tracer from checkpoint, restore AgentState in agent_config - README.md: add "Resuming Interrupted Scans" section with usage examples Original scan behavior is 100% preserved when --run-name is not used.
