A message typed while the agent runs (CLI busy_input_mode=interrupt, gateway
priority redirect, ACP redirect) goes through AIAgent.redirect(). During tool
execution redirect() degrades to steer(), whose delivery rides the tool result
— so a long foreground command (a `sleep 285` CI poller, a build) parked the
user's message until it exited. The UI printed "Redirected current turn" while
nothing happened for minutes.
redirect() now also asks the tool workers to YIELD (tools/interrupt.request_yield).
The local terminal backend's wait loop honours it: the drain thread is stopped, the
still-running Popen is adopted by the process registry as a notify_on_complete
background session (ProcessRegistry.adopt_local — output so far seeds the buffer,
the registry reader continues from the pipe), and the tool returns immediately with
status "yielded_to_background" + session_id. The command is never killed; the
completion notification arrives as usual and process(poll/wait/log/kill) work on it.
Non-local backends and internal env.execute() consumers pass no yield_handler and
are unaffected; a stale yield bit is cleared with the interrupt bit per worker tid.
For each issue anchor present in BASE 63279301bc non-test .py and absent on HEAD, the BASE comment/docstring block was re-attached at the HEAD location of the code it explained (matched by the distinctive code line / enclosing def). Sentences already covered by an existing HEAD comment were deduped; the issue number always survives. Insert-only: no code lines changed.
