From 946ebdec66a6f38d97447fe2a62613f33459e8cc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeffrey Phillips Freeman Date: Tue, 12 May 2026 07:20:57 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] fix(cli/session): add --format flag and JSON envelope output to session tell MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Add BDD/Behave test scenarios for the existing --format/-f flag on `agents session tell`, and update CHANGELOG.md and CONTRIBUTORS.md. The implementation of --format on session tell exists in the codebase (commit 87a7ce35d), but lacks dedicated BDD test coverage. This PR adds: - 6 new Behave scenarios in features/session_cli.feature testing JSON, YAML, plain, table, short flag (-f), and Rich output regression paths - 6 corresponding step definitions in features/steps/session_cli_steps.py verifying spec-compliant JSON envelopes, valid YAML/JSON output, ASCII table output, and Rich console content preservation - CHANGELOG.md entry under [Unreleased] documenting the --format flag feature - CONTRIBUTORS.md entry crediting Jeffrey Phillips Freeman Quality gates: lint ✓, typecheck ✓ (only pre-existing warnings about optional provider imports) ISSUES CLOSED: #10466 --- CHANGELOG.md | 7 ++ CONTRIBUTORS.md | 1 + features/session_cli.feature | 45 +++++++++ features/steps/session_cli_steps.py | 148 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 4 files changed, 201 insertions(+) diff --git a/CHANGELOG.md b/CHANGELOG.md index 7ecc5c786..7e4b9977f 100644 --- a/CHANGELOG.md +++ b/CHANGELOG.md @@ -198,6 +198,13 @@ ensuring data is stored with proper parameter values.

unconditional ``session.rollback()`` calls from exception handlers in ``ProjectRepository.create()`` and ``NamespacedProjectRepository.create/update/delete``, delegating transaction rollback to the Unit of Work outer-layer handler where it belongs. +* Jeffrey Phillips Freeman has contributed the `--format`/`-f` flag to `agents session tell` (issue #10466): adds JSON envelope output for

The new @format_flag scenario "Tell table format outputs ASCII table" asserts the output contains `|` or `+`, so the rendered table did not match either the docstring contract or the BDD expectation. Pass `box=box.ASCII` so the table actually uses `|` and `+` borders. Also apply `ruff format` to the new step definitions (four split-string concatenations the formatter wants collapsed onto one line each). --- features/steps/session_cli_steps.py | 14 +++++--------- src/cleveragents/cli/formatting.py | 7 +++++-- 2 files changed, 10 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) diff --git a/features/steps/session_cli_steps.py b/features/steps/session_cli_steps.py index e4ce18730..149df40b0 100644 --- a/features/steps/session_cli_steps.py +++ b/features/steps/session_cli_steps.py @@ -910,8 +910,7 @@ def step_tell_with_short_format_flag(context: Context, fmt: str, prompt: str) -> @then("the session CLI tell JSON should contain a data envelope") def step_tell_json_has_envelope(context: Context) -> None: assert context.result.exit_code == 0, ( - f"Expected exit code 0, got {context.result.exit_code}: " - f"{context.result.output}" + f"Expected exit code 0, got {context.result.exit_code}: {context.result.output}" ) parsed = json.loads(context.result.output) envelope_keys = {"command", "status", "exit_code", "data", "timing", "messages"} @@ -921,13 +920,12 @@ def step_tell_json_has_envelope(context: Context) -> None: ) -@then('the session CLI tell output should be valid YAML') +@then("the session CLI tell output should be valid YAML") def step_tell_output_valid_yaml(context: Context) -> None: import yaml assert context.result.exit_code == 0, ( - f"Expected exit code 0, got {context.result.exit_code}: " - f"{context.result.output}" + f"Expected exit code 0, got {context.result.exit_code}: {context.result.output}" ) try: yaml.safe_load(context.result.output) @@ -938,8 +936,7 @@ def step_tell_output_valid_yaml(context: Context) -> None: @then('the session CLI tell output should contain "session_id:"') def step_tell_plain_contains_session_id(context: Context) -> None: assert context.result.exit_code == 0, ( - f"Expected exit code 0, got {context.result.exit_code}: " - f"{context.result.output}" + f"Expected exit code 0, got {context.result.exit_code}: {context.result.output}" ) assert "session_id:" in context.result.output, ( f"Expected 'session_id:' in plain output, got: {context.result.output}" @@ -949,8 +946,7 @@ def step_tell_plain_contains_session_id(context: Context) -> None: @then("the session CLI tell output should contain a table border character") def step_tell_table_has_border(context: Context) -> None: assert context.result.exit_code == 0, ( - f"Expected exit code 0, got {context.result.exit_code}: " - f"{context.result.output}" + f"Expected exit code 0, got {context.result.exit_code}: {context.result.output}" ) # ASCII table uses border characters like | and +-+ has_border = "|" in context.result.output or "+" in context.result.output diff --git a/src/cleveragents/cli/formatting.py b/src/cleveragents/cli/formatting.py index 608c063bc..54ddc7c6f 100644 --- a/src/cleveragents/cli/formatting.py +++ b/src/cleveragents/cli/formatting.py @@ -23,6 +23,7 @@ from io import StringIO from typing import Any import yaml +from rich import box from rich.console import Console from rich.table import Table @@ -130,8 +131,10 @@ def _format_table(data: dict[str, Any] | list[dict[str, Any]]) -> str: if key not in columns: columns.append(key) - # Build Rich table and capture to string - table = Table(show_header=True, show_edge=True) + # Build Rich table and capture to string.
