feat(experiments): make chat-diff the default approval path (L2, #1375) - #1384
Makes the chat-diff approval path (the PREVENT_FOCUS_DISRUPTION experiment) the default approval flow: writes are approved in chat and saved directly, without opening/refocusing the diff editor. The diff-editor path remains available — toggling the experiment off restores the old behavior (same storage key, so existing saved values are preserved).
All five write tools (WriteToFile, Edit, EditFile, SearchReplace, ApplyPatch) plus ApplyDiff already consume the experiment through experiments.isEnabled(state?.experiments ?? {}, ...), so the default flip applies automatically; no production call-site changes were needed.
Tests:
experiments.spec.ts / experiments-preventFocusDisruption.spec.ts: default assertions flipped (config map, experimentDefault, and the no-stored-value resolution).
editTool.spec.ts, editFileTool.spec.ts, searchReplaceTool.spec.ts, and writeToFileTool.spec.ts: "focus disruption default" blocks — with no stored experiment value the tool saves via saveDirectly and never calls open/saveChanges; with a stored false it still uses the diff-editor path (per CodeRabbit: cover both experiment states in every tool suite).
Tool-spec base mocks (editTool, editFileTool, searchReplaceTool, writeToFileTool) pin preventFocusDisruption: false explicitly so the legacy-path tests keep exercising the legacy path deterministically; the writeToFileTool mock also gained the saveDirectly stub.
DiffViewProvider.spec.ts: the openFile=false case now asserts the document is loaded in memory only at the exact URI (workspace.openTextDocument called with vscode.Uri.file(...), window.showTextDocument not) — the focus-not-stolen behavior (per CodeRabbit).
Notes
Behavior change: new users (no stored experiment value) get the chat-diff approval path by default; the active editor is not refocused. Users who previously saved the experiment keep their saved value.
No setting rename, no new settings, no storage migration.
Tests
pnpm --dir src exec vitest run over the 7 touched suites: 181 passed (5 skipped) — each write-tool suite covers all three experiment states (unset experiments: {}, stored true, stored false), and the in-memory document assertion pins the exact URI.
Full src unit suite: no new failures versus baseline (remaining local failures are pre-existing environment issues in a fresh worktree — tree-sitter native bindings and the known Windows symlink EPERM in rules.spec.ts).
ESLint clean on all touched files; suppression counts unchanged; check-types clean.

Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Chat-diff is now the default approval path for file changes.
File changes no longer disrupt the editor’s focus by default.
The previous diff-editor workflow remains available when focus-disruption prevention is disabled.
Tests
Updated coverage verifies both the new default behavior and the legacy workflow.
Added checks confirming files can be loaded without opening or focusing the editor.
end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->
Review-gate re-trigger (2026-08-30): empty commit d038774 (no code change) re-runs CI and CodeRabbit current-head review under the org new PR review gate; the code head remains c0ef476.
Rollout note
This flips the default for PREVENT_FOCUS_DISRUPTION to enabled. Because the settings form persists the whole experiments map on Save (SettingsView → updateSettings → webviewMessageHandler merges over experimentDefault), an install that has ever saved the settings form has preventFocusDisruption stored at its old default (false), which experiments.isEnabled treats as an explicit choice: those installs keep the diff-editor approval path. The chat-diff flow becomes the default for installs whose persisted map has no value for that key.
The stored false is indistinguishable from a deliberate opt-out, so this PR does not migrate it; the toggle remains available for both directions. Persisting only explicit experiment overrides (so future default flips reach existing installs) is tracked in #2157.
…Code-Org#1375)
Flips the PREVENT_FOCUS_DISRUPTION experiment default from false to true so the chat-diff approval path (approve in chat, save directly, no diff-editor focus) is the default. The diff-editor path remains available by toggling the experiment off; the storage key is unchanged so saved values are preserved. Production call sites already route through experiments.isEnabled(... ?? {}), so the flip applies automatically. Test-only changes pin the legacy path explicitly where base mocks relied on the old default.

Additional context used
Path-based instructions: 5
Treat model, provider, MCP, path, command, and tool data as untrusted.
Require regression coverage at the lowest valid harness with behavior-focused assertions, including relevant negative, error, false/unset, and boundary cases.
Chat-diff is now the default approval path for file edits. Approved edits can be saved directly without opening the diff editor, keeping your current view undisturbed.
The diff-editor workflow remains available by turning off the focus-disruption setting.
Bug Fixes
Saving settings now sends only experiment values that have changed.
Experiment changes are tracked correctly across consecutive saves, including before updated settings arrive.
Pending experiment changes are cleared when settings are imported or discarded, or when the API configuration or mode changes.
The PREVENT_FOCUS_DISRUPTION experiment is enabled by default. Tool tests cover direct-save routing and the diff-editor opt-out. SettingsView sends only experiment values changed during the settings edit session.

Summary
Enable the chat-diff default src/shared/experiments.ts, src/shared/__tests__/experiments*.spec.ts
The experiment is enabled by default. Shared tests verify the enabled state and default approval path.
Cover default and opt-out routing src/core/tools/__tests__/*Tool.spec.ts, src/integrations/editor/__tests__/DiffViewProvider.spec.ts
Tool tests verify saveDirectly routing when the experiment is enabled or unset, and open plus saveChanges routing when it is disabled. ApplyDiffTool and ApplyPatchTool tests cover approved and rejected outcomes. The direct-save test verifies in-memory document loading without showing the document in the editor.
SettingsView tracks changed experiment IDs and includes only values that differ from live settings or pending submitted values. Tests verify changed values, follow-up edits before host confirmation, clearing tracking after settings changes or discard, and omission of experiments when no experiment changed.
Zoo-Code-Org/Zoo-Code#2157: This change sends only experiment IDs changed during the current edit session. The issue also concerns experiment persistence, but its host-side persistence requirements are outside this change.

Explanation
The title "feat(experiments): make chat-diff the default approval path (L2, #1375)" matches the main change: PREVENT_FOCUS_DISRUPTION default flips from false to true in src/shared/experiments.ts, and the tests were updated to match. It uses a conventional commit prefix and a specific description. The "(L2, #1375)" suffix is series metadata, but the title is still clear and specific.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the repository template in substance. It links a tracking issue (#1389) rather than an explicit "Closes:" line, and it covers the Description and Test Procedure content under Summary, Changes, Notes, and Tests. The Pre-Submission Checklist, Visual Snapshots, Videos, Documentation Updates, and Get in Touch sections are absent. The rollout note is useful. The description also contains an unexplained duplicate reference to issue #2157 and a stray '<!--> This is an auto-generated comment' marker. The Simplified Technical English requirement is only partly followed, since several sentences are long and use parentheticals.
Resolution
Optional cleanup: change the tracking-issue line to "Closes: #1389" (or the correct issue number) to match the required template. Add the Pre-Submission Checklist, Documentation Updates, and Get in Touch sections, or confirm they are not needed. Remove the stray auto-generated comment marker. Shorten a few long sentences to follow the Simplified Technical English guidance.
Full details: Security Boundaries
Explanation
No changed path matches the security failure conditions. The PR changes the experiment default and narrows settings saves to toggled experiment IDs. The direct-save path remains behind askApproval, and write tools still validate access before saving. ApplyDiff and ApplyPatch retain rejection handling, and the added tests cover rejected approvals and the opt-out diff-editor path.
Full details: Lifecycle Resource Cleanup
Explanation
No changed lifecycle path can leak a resource or duplicate work. The PR changes the experiment default and settings bookkeeping only. The added effects use refs and clear state; they allocate no listeners, watchers, providers, timers, or tasks. The existing ResizeObserver cleanup is unchanged. The direct-save timer and save path are pre-existing behavior, not changed lifecycle code, and the finite timer completes.
Full details: Persistence Integrity
Explanation
The changed experiment persistence path still permits lost updates. SettingsView.handleSubmit posts updateSettings without an acknowledgement and immediately clears isChangeDetected (SettingsView.tsx:409-519). Its new submitted-baseline logic explicitly supports a second save before the first host update is confirmed (SettingsView.tsx:419-421; SettingsView.spec.tsx:1063-1095). The webview listener starts each async webviewMessageHandler without serialization (ClineProvider.ts:1709-1713). The handler performs a read-modify-write of the complete experiments object, then awaits contextProxy.setValue (webviewMessageHandler.ts:855-870). If the first globalState.update completes after the second, the older map can overwrite the newer value. Failures also do not produce an acknowledgement or restore the dirty state.
Resolution
Serialize updateSettings messages for this webview, or add a save sequence and acknowledgement protocol. Apply experiment changes in order as one read-modify-write operation. Keep the pending experiment edit dirty until the host acknowledges successful persistence. On a failed write, report the error and retain the latest unsaved experiment value for retry.
Full details: Regression Evidence
Explanation
ApplyPatch rejection coverage remains incomplete. The pull request adds four rejection tests in src/core/tools/__tests__/applyPatchTool.experiments.spec.ts (add/update, unset/opt-out), but none asserts diffViewProvider.reset(). ApplyPatchTool.ts performs this cleanup on both rejection branches at lines 211 and 368. A regression in either cleanup call would pass the new tests.
Resolution
Add expect(fixture.diffViewProvider.reset).toHaveBeenCalled() to each of the four ApplyPatch rejection tests. Keep the existing save, open, revert, and result assertions.

…aselines on import
Review follow-ups: structural TaskFixture types replace the unchecked member casts with one documented construction-site assertion and a typed provider stub; the opt-out success test asserts the pushed result; SettingsView clears the last-submitted experiment baseline when settings are imported, with a regression test. applyDiffTool.experiments 4 passed; SettingsView.spec 36 passed; tsc clean.
Typed Task fixture — the spec now defines structural TaskFixture/ProviderFixture/DiffViewFixture interfaces, types every supplied member, and performs a single documented as unknown as Task at the construction site. setExperiments builds a typed ProviderFixture (getState) instead of an unchecked cast.
Opt-out success result — the diff-editor success test now also asserts pushedResult contains Changes successfully applied., matching the direct-path test; the existing diff-editor assertions are unchanged.
Imported settings baseline — applying imported settings clears submittedExperiments alongside changedExperiments, so a stale pending baseline cannot suppress a later save of the newly imported value. Regression test: save default-on → false (pending baseline), import settings (control returns to default-on), toggle off again and save; both experiment payloads are emitted and the second carries { preventFocusDisruption: false }.
Note: CodeRabbit is an incremental review system and does not re-review already reviewed commits. This command is applicable only when automatic reviews are paused.
…ApplyPatchTool routing
Review follow-ups: submittedExperiments clears on API/profile-mode resync, import, and confirmed discard, with regression tests for the two reset paths; new tool-layer ApplyPatchTool spec covers add-file and update-file direct vs diff-editor routing for experiments {} and {preventFocusDisruption:false}. SettingsView.spec 38 passed; applyPatchTool.experiments 4 passed; tsc clean.
Persistence Integrity (error) — submittedExperiments is now cleared wherever the settings edit session resets: API/profile or mode change (the state re-sync effect), settings import, and a confirmed discard. Regression tests cover the API/profile change and the confirmed-discard resets: save the default-on → false change (pending baseline), perform the reset, toggle again, save, and assert the new { preventFocusDisruption: false } payload is still emitted.
Regression Evidence (warning) — new applyPatchTool.experiments.spec.ts covers add-file and update-file at the tool layer for both routings: with experiments: {} the direct save is called (add: saveDirectly(path, content, true, …), update: saveDirectly(path, content, false, …)) without open/saveChanges; with { preventFocusDisruption: false } the diff-editor path calls open/update/saveChanges without saveDirectly.

…discard reset
Review follow-ups: ApplyPatchTool tests add rejected add/update cases for unset and opted-out experiments (no save on rejection, diff editor reverted on opt-out) and verify the approved success message via pushToolResult/handleError; the confirmed-discard test makes a new unsaved edit, asserts the dialog opens, then confirms the reset. applyPatchTool.experiments 8 passed; SettingsView.spec 38 passed.
ApplyPatchTool rejection cases — added rejected add-file and update-file cases for both routings: with the experiment unset, rejection calls neither save method and reports Changes were rejected by the user.; with the opt-out, the diff editor was opened and revertChanges() runs, and neither save method runs. The approved cases stay intact.
Approved-case success verification — runPatch now returns its own pushToolResult/handleError mocks; the approved direct and diff-editor cases assert pushToolResult received Changes successfully applied. and handleError was not called, so success is verified from the tool result rather than inferred from the save calls.
Confirmed-discard path — the reset test now makes a new unsaved edit after the Save, clicks Done, asserts the discard dialog is open before clicking its action, then asserts the confirmation reset the edit session (control back to default-on, Save disabled) and that the later change is still persisted.
Note: CodeRabbit is an incremental review system and does not re-review already reviewed commits. This command is applicable only when automatic reviews are paused.
Lint follow-up: the update-file direct-save test now asserts pushToolResult received the success message and handleError was not called (the destructured mocks must be used). applyPatchTool.experiments 8 passed; eslint 0.

Summary
L2 of the file-write safety series (plan: easonLiangWorldedtech/Zoo-Code#33), part of epic #1375.
Makes the chat-diff approval path (the PREVENT_FOCUS_DISRUPTION experiment) the default approval flow: writes are approved in chat and saved directly, without opening/refocusing the diff editor. The diff-editor path remains available — toggling the experiment off restores the old behavior (same storage key, so existing saved values are preserved).

Tests
- Full
- ESLint clean on all touched files; suppression counts unchanged; check-types clean.

- New Features
- Chat-diff is now the default approval path for file changes.
- File changes no longer disrupt the editor’s focus by default.
- The previous diff-editor workflow remains available when focus-disruption prevention is disabled.
- Tests
- Updated coverage verifies both the new default behavior and the legacy workflow.
- Added checks confirming files can be loaded without opening or focusing the editor.

Rollout note
This flips the default for
PREVENT_FOCUS_DISRUPTIONto enabled. Because the settings form persists the wholeexperimentsmap on Save (SettingsView→updateSettings→webviewMessageHandlermerges overexperimentDefault), an install that has ever saved the settings form haspreventFocusDisruptionstored at its old default (false), whichexperiments.isEnabledtreats as an explicit choice: those installs keep the diff-editor approval path. The chat-diff flow becomes the default for installs whose persisted map has no value for that key.The stored
falseis indistinguishable from a deliberate opt-out, so this PR does not migrate it; the toggle remains available for both directions. Persisting only explicit experiment overrides (so future default flips reach existing installs) is tracked in #2157.
