Summary

  • src/cleveragents/tui/input/reference_parser.py::_catalog synthesises reference suggestions from the local filesystem and examples/ directories instead of querying the live project/plan/resource registries through A2A.
  • As a result, inline @ references are disconnected from the actual registry state and will miss server-side entities, violating the spec’s requirement for A2A-based resolution.
  • This breaks ADR-046 compliance, which explicitly calls out integration tests that resolve references via A2A.

Spec references

  • ADR-046: TUI Reference and Command System — “Compliance” section states that resolution tests verify @ references through the Project/Plan/Resource registries via A2A.
  • docs/reference/tui.md — reiterates that the TUI communicates with the application layer exclusively through the A2A local facade.

Suggested fix

  • Replace the filesystem-driven _catalog with an A2A-backed provider that fetches canonical reference data (plans, projects, resources, actors, tools, skills) from the appropriate A2A operations, caching as needed for latency.
  • Ensure the Reference Picker overlay stays responsive by performing A2A lookups asynchronously with debouncing, aligned with ADR-046 performance constraints (<200 ms target).
  • Add integration tests that exercise the new provider against the A2A facade to satisfy the spec’s compliance guarantees.

[AUTO-EPIC] Epic Assignment

This issue has been identified as a child issue of Epic #8604: Reference and Command Input System — @, /, ! Modes (v3.7.0).

The @ reference resolution through A2A registries is a core requirement of the @ reference mode implementation. This issue should be tracked as part of Epic #8604.

Suggested milestone: v3.7.0
Suggested labels: Type/Feature, Priority/High, MoSCoW/Must have, State/Verified

[AUTO-OWNR-1] Triage Decision (Cycle 16)

Status: Verified

MoSCoW: Must Have
Priority: High
Milestone: v3.7.0

Rationale: This is a TUI A2A integration violation. The TUI must route all A2A operations through the TuiMaterializer layer per v3.7.0 spec (ADR-044). Direct A2A calls from TUI components bypass the required abstraction layer.

Next Steps: Fix as part of TuiMaterializer implementation (#8442). This issue should be resolved when TuiMaterializer is properly wired.
