should_use_direct_api_call() contexts (gateway cron turns #62151, delegate_task
children #60203) were short-circuited onto the NON-streaming wire because the
interrupt worker wedges inside their nested thread pools. That dropped every
liveness property streaming provides: edge proxies kill the silent POST
(z.ai HTTP 524 — three retries later the child dies as "max_iterations"), and
the non-stream stale watchdog cannot tell a reasoning model's thinking phase
from a hung provider, so children die at exactly stale_timeout (#100260).
Keep those contexts on interruptible_streaming_api_call. The request now runs
INLINE on the conversation thread (no worker → the deadlock class stays
closed) while the existing poll loop — 30s heartbeat, stale-stream detector,
cross-thread interrupt abort — moves onto a monitor thread that only ever
aborts sockets, never dispatches (same shape as direct_api_call's watchdog
timer). Interactive sessions are unchanged: worker + poll loop as before.
should_use_direct_api_call() itself is untouched; only what it routes to.
Live A/B (real SSE server, real AIAgent.run_conversation):
before: subagent/cron wire stream=None, request on conversation thread
after: subagent/cron wire stream=True, request on conversation thread
cli unchanged (stream=True, spawned worker)
inline stale detector kills a one-chunk-then-silence stream at budget;
AIAgent.interrupt() from another thread unwinds the inline stream in 0.6s.
