From 55ff22c6d5e4c986648b71d58dd71b426df96111 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lucas Daniel <94806303+NoodleLDS@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Tue, 9 Jun 2026 18:46:54 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] fix(chat): stabilize system prompt, sequence memory extraction, and send stable session id to preserve KV cache (#3360) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit * fix(chat): stabilize system prompt, sequence memory extraction, send stable session id to preserve KV cache Fixes #2927. As diagnosed in the issue, three things in Odysseus's request pattern actively destroyed local backends' (llama.cpp / LM Studio) KV-cache continuity, forcing a full prompt re-evaluation (15-30s+) on every turn: 1. Dynamic content folded into the system prompt every turn. Both the chat preface (ChatProcessor.build_context_preface) and the agent system prompt (_build_system_prompt) injected current_datetime_prompt() — text that changes every minute — directly into system-role messages, which llm_core then concatenates into the single system message sent as the cached prefix. Any byte difference there invalidates the entire cache. Moved this to a new current_datetime_context_message() helper that returns a standalone user-role message, inserted near the end of the array (right before the latest user turn) instead of mixed into the system prompt. The static system prefix (preset prompt + safety policy + agent base prompt) now stays byte-identical across turns of the same session. 2. Memory/skill extraction side-requests competed with the main completion. run_post_response_tasks fired extract_and_store / maybe_extract_skill via asyncio.create_task — fire-and-forget coroutines that could overlap the next turn's main request and steal llama.cpp's limited processing slots, evicting the cached checkpoint. They're now queued through a new _run_extraction_jobs_sequentially helper that waits for the session's stream to go idle and runs the jobs strictly one at a time. 3. No stable session identifier was sent to local backends, so llama.cpp assigned a new processing slot via LRU every turn ("session_id= server-selected (LCP/LRU)"), losing slot affinity. Added _apply_local_cache_affinity() in llm_core, which sets session_id and cache_prompt: true on outgoing payloads — gated to self-hosted OpenAI-compatible endpoints only (never api.openai.com or other cloud providers, which reject unrecognized request fields with a 400). Threaded session_id through stream_llm / llm_call_async / stream_agent_loop from the existing Odysseus session id. Tests in tests/test_kv_cache_invalidation_2927.py exercise the real payload- assembly and scheduling code paths: byte-identical system prefix across two turns of the same session (with a regression check that genuinely changed instructions DO still change it), the dynamic time block landing as a user-role message, extraction jobs waiting for the stream to go idle and running sequentially, and the outgoing payload carrying a stable session_id (same across turns of one session, different across sessions) only for self-hosted endpoints. Updated tests/test_user_time.py for the new message placement. * fix(tests): accept owner= kwarg in normalize_model_id monkeypatch The upstream normalize_model_id signature now takes an owner= keyword argument, and chat_helpers.py passes owner=getattr(sess, "owner", None) at the call site. Update the test stub lambda to **kwargs so it handles the new argument without breaking, and update chat_helpers.py to forward the owner parameter consistently. --------- Co-authored-by: Alexandre Teixeira <111787685+alteixeira20@users.noreply.github.com> --- routes/chat_helpers.py | 96 ++++- routes/chat_routes.py | 2 + src/agent_loop.py | 19 +- src/chat_processor.py | 22 +- src/llm_core.py | 44 ++- src/user_time.py | 25 +- tests/test_kv_cache_invalidation_2927.py | 463 +++++++++++++++++++++++ tests/test_user_time.py | 54 ++- 8 files changed, 697 insertions(+), 28 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tests/test_kv_cache_invalidation_2927.py diff --git a/routes/chat_helpers.py b/routes/chat_helpers.py index 0b1c5d8ba..c32161bb1 100644 --- a/routes/chat_helpers.py +++ b/routes/chat_helpers.py @@ -615,6 +615,26 @@ async def build_chat_context( # Build messages messages = preface + sess.get_context_messages() + # Current date/time — injected as a standalone *user*-role context message + # placed immediately before the latest user turn, NOT folded into the + # system prompt.
