feat(exec-events): add top-level runId to payload

- Added runId?: string to ExecEventBase type in exec-events.ts
- Added runId to all three emitExecEvent calls (exec.started, exec.output, exec.completed)
- Fixes Crabwalk mismatch where it expects exec.runId but Gateway sent context.runId
- runId is sourced from session.execEvents.context?.runId for backward compatibility

Resolves: Crabwalk exec nodes not displaying due to schema mismatch

# Exec Events E2E Audit Report
**Date:** 2026-01-27
**Auditor:** Grace (via Codex analysis)
## Executive Summary
The exec events flow is fundamentally working (Gateway emits → WebSocket broadcasts → Crabwalk receives), but **there's a critical `runId` schema mismatch** that prevents proper session linking.
### Critical Finding
**Gateway sends `runId` nested in `context` object (optional); Crabwalk expects `runId` at top-level (required).**
---
## Part 1: Gateway Event Emission ✅ Working
### Findings
**Emission conditions** (src/agents/bash-tools.exec.ts):
- Line 392: `execEventsConfig.emitEvents === true`
- Line 395: `execEventsEnabled = execEventsConfig.emitEvents === true && execEventsMatch.matched`
- Both conditions must be true for events to emit
**Emission call sites:**
- Line 577: `emitExecEvent("exec.output", {...})`
- Line 595: `emitExecEvent("exec.started", {...})`
- Line 618: `emitExecEvent("exec.completed", {...})`
**Payload structure** (src/infra/exec-events.ts):
```typescript
type ExecEventBase = {
event: ExecEventName; // "exec.started" | "exec.output" | "exec.completed"
ts: number;
seq: number;
sessionId: string;
pid: number;
command?: string;
context?: ExecEventContext; // 👈 runId is NESTED here
};
type ExecEventContext = {
runId?: string; // 👈 OPTIONAL
toolCallId?: string;
sessionKey?: string;
};
```
### Issues Found
1. **Line 7 (exec-events.ts):** `runId?: string` — runId is OPTIONAL in Gateway types
2. **Line 20:** `context?: ExecEventContext` — entire context is OPTIONAL
---
## Part 2: Gateway Broadcast ✅ Working
### Findings
**Subscription** (src/gateway/server.impl.ts):
- Line 20: `import { onExecEvent } from "../infra/exec-events.js"`
- Line 406-408:
```typescript
const execUnsub = onExecEvent((evt) => {
broadcast(evt.event, evt, { dropIfSlow: true });
});
```
**GATEWAY_EVENTS list** (src/gateway/server-methods-list.ts):
- Line 111: `"exec.started"`
- Line 112: `"exec.output"`
- Line 113: `"exec.completed"`
### Status
Exec events ARE properly registered and broadcast. ✅
---
## Part 3: Crabwalk Parser 🔴 MISMATCH
### Findings
**Parser** (/home/clawdbot/apps/crabwalk/src/integrations/clawdbot/parser.ts):
- Line 200-201:
```typescript
const exec = frame.payload as ExecStartedEvent
const execId = `exec-${exec.runId}-${exec.pid}` // 👈 Uses top-level runId
```
- Line 211: `runId: exec.runId` — expects runId at top level
- Line 260: `const execId = \`exec-${exec.runId}-${exec.pid}\`` — same pattern
**Protocol types** (/home/clawdbot/apps/crabwalk/src/integrations/clawdbot/protocol.ts):
- Line 88-92:
```typescript
export interface ExecStartedEvent {
sessionId: string;
pid: number;
runId: string; // 👈 REQUIRED string, NOT optional
...
}
```
- Line 92: `runId: string` — REQUIRED, not optional
### Critical Mismatch
| Property | Gateway | Crabwalk |
|----------|---------|----------|
| `runId` location | `context.runId` (nested) | `exec.runId` (top-level) |
| `runId` required | No (`runId?: string`) | Yes (`runId: string`) |
| `context` | Optional object | Not read at all |
**What happens when runId is undefined:**
- `execId` becomes `"exec-undefined-<pid>"` — breaks uniqueness
- Session linking fails (see Part 5)
---
## Part 4: Crabwalk UI Component ✅ Distinct
### Findings
**ExecNode.tsx** (/home/clawdbot/apps/crabwalk/src/components/monitor/ExecNode.tsx):
- Line 1-10: Distinct component using `memo` and `Handle` from react-flow
- Line 8: `data: MonitorExecProcess` — uses proper exec type
- Uses Terminal icon (lucide-react)
- Shows command, status (running/completed/failed), duration
**NOT reusing AgentNode or ChatNode** — this is a dedicated exec component. ✅
---
## Part 5: ActionGraph Integration 🟡 Works IF sessionKey exists
### Findings
**ActionGraph.tsx** (/home/clawdbot/apps/crabwalk/src/components/monitor/ActionGraph.tsx):
- Line 18: `import { ExecNode } from './ExecNode'`
- Line 55: `exec: ExecNode as any` — registered as node type
- Line 138-143: Exec nodes added to graph
- Line 273-282: Session→Exec edges created based on `exec.sessionKey`
**Edge creation logic:**
```typescript
for (const exec of visibleExecs) {
const key = exec.sessionKey // 👈 REQUIRES sessionKey
...
edges.push({
id: `e-session-exec-${exec.id}`,
source: `session-${key}`,
target: `exec-${exec.id}`,
...
})
}
```
**Session key resolution** (/home/clawdbot/apps/crabwalk/src/integrations/clawdbot/collections.ts):
- Line 12: `const runSessionMap = new Map<string, string>()` — maps runId → sessionKey
- Line 141-147: `addAction()` learns mapping from chat events
- Line 233-234: `addExecEvent()` calls `resolveSessionKey(event)`
**The problem:** Without `runId` at top level, `resolveSessionKey` can't look up the sessionKey, so execs appear as orphan nodes without edges to sessions.
---
## Recommended Fixes (Test-First Approach)
### Option A: Fix Gateway (Preferred)
**Bead 1: Add top-level runId to exec event payload**
1. Write test first:
```typescript
// src/agents/bash-tools.exec.exec-events.test.ts
it("includes runId at top level in exec events", async () => {
const events: ExecEventPayload[] = [];
onExecEvent((e) => events.push(e));
await runWithExecEventContext({ runId: "test-run-123" }, async () => {
await runExecProcess({ command: "codex --help", ... });
});
const started = events.find(e => e.event === "exec.started");
expect(started?.runId).toBe("test-run-123"); // 👈 Top level
});
```
2. Update types (src/infra/exec-events.ts):
```typescript
type ExecEventBase = {
event: ExecEventName;
ts: number;
seq: number;
sessionId: string;
pid: number;
command?: string;
runId?: string; // 👈 ADD top-level
context?: ExecEventContext; // Keep for backward compat
};
```
3. Update emission (src/agents/bash-tools.exec.ts):
```typescript
emitExecEvent("exec.started", {
sessionId,
pid,
command,
runId: session.execEvents.context?.runId, // 👈 ADD this
context: session.execEvents.context,
...
});
```
### Option B: Fix Crabwalk (Alternative)
Read `runId` from `context.runId` if top-level is missing:
```typescript
// parser.ts
const runId = exec.runId ?? frame.payload?.context?.runId;
const execId = `exec-${runId ?? 'unknown'}-${exec.pid}`;
```
### Recommendation
**Go with Option A** — it's cleaner to have consistent payload structure at the source.

# CONTINUITY.md — Exec Events E2E Fix
## Goal
Make exec events (Codex, Claude, etc.) visible in Crabwalk UI as distinct "EXEC" nodes — not "agent" or "chat".
### Success Criteria
1. When Codex runs, Crabwalk shows an "EXEC" labeled node (not "AGENT")
2. Exec events flow: Gateway emits → WebSocket broadcasts → Crabwalk receives → UI renders
3. All changes have test coverage
4. Clean git history with meaningful commits
## Constraints/Assumptions
- Gateway code: `/home/clawdbot/dev/clawdbot-exec-events/`
- Crabwalk code: `/home/clawdbot/apps/crabwalk/`
- Config already has `hooks.exec.emitEvents: true` and whitelist
- Must use test-driven approach
## Key Decisions
1. Rolled back cowboy changes (2026-01-27)
2. Starting fresh with proper beads model
## State
### Done
- [x] Rolled back uncommitted changes
- [x] Created CONTINUITY.md
- [x] **Bead 1: Audit** — Full E2E flow audit complete (see AUDIT_REPORT.md)
### Now
- [ ] Bead 2: Write failing test for top-level runId in exec events
### Next
- [ ] Bead 3: Update Gateway exec-events.ts types (add top-level runId)
- [ ] Bead 4: Update bash-tools.exec.ts emission call sites
- [ ] Bead 5: E2E validation with Crabwalk
## Open Questions (RESOLVED)
- ✅ CONFIRMED: Exec events ARE being emitted (Line 406-408, server.impl.ts)
- ✅ CONFIRMED: Crabwalk HAS distinct ExecNode.tsx component (not reusing AgentNode)
- ✅ CONFIRMED: runId IS required for session linking but optional in Gateway
- ✅ ROOT CAUSE: Gateway sends `context.runId` (nested, optional), Crabwalk expects `exec.runId` (top-level, required)
## Working Set
- Gateway exec emission: `src/agents/bash-tools.exec.ts`
- Gateway broadcast: `src/gateway/server.impl.ts`
- Exec event types: `src/infra/exec-events.ts`
- Crabwalk parser: `/home/clawdbot/apps/crabwalk/src/integrations/clawdbot/parser.ts`
- Crabwalk UI: `/home/clawdbot/apps/crabwalk/src/components/monitor/ExecNode.tsx`
- Crabwalk graph: `/home/clawdbot/apps/crabwalk/src/components/monitor/ActionGraph.tsx`
