phase: 94_ls_tree_drilldown
All green. Verification complete.

**Phase 94 — `ls` drill-down tree: final verification pass (all 5 tasks were already complete; verified, nothing to fix)**

- Verified `ls` 3-level tree (`app/rag/agent.py`): `ls()` sources + summaries, `ls(source)`/`ls(source/folder)` drill-down, 50-line file cap + grep-pointer note, NOT-A-FOLDER teaching refusal
- Verified `folder_summaries` (migration 0017, model, `app/rag/folder_summaries.py` generator: `FOLDER_SUMMARY_MODE` marker, fail-soft per folder, ≥2-doc scope + prune) wired change-gated in both sync paths
- Verified 10-turn fixture battery verdict recorded in `TOOL_CALLING_TESTING.md` §9 (2026-09-11): turbo PASS 19/19 contract, 98.7 s (−12.5…−13.2 % vs baseline); lite PASS 18/18, 43.6 s (+7.7 %) — accuracy at/above baseline, gate met
- `uv run pytest --cov=app --cov-report=term-missing` → 1939 passed, 0 failed; TOTAL coverage **99 %** (folder_summaries.py 100 %)
- `uv run ruff check .` → clean; `uv run pyright` → 0 errors, 0 warnings
- E2E in isolation: `test_ls_tree_drilldown.py` 3 passed; `test_agent_document_tools` 4, `test_agent_unlimited_tools` 4, `test_harness_aligned_tools` 3, `test_search_tool` 3, `test_grep_regex_teaching` 2, `test_response_to_docs` 4 — all passed (read/grep contracts untouched)
- Dedicated folder-summary tests (fail-soft, prune, both sync paths, migration): 46 passed
- Completion criteria: all 6 met; working tree holds only phase-94 changes (commit left to harness per protocol)

**Next pending phase:** `95_read_truncation_cap`

"""Phase 72 E2E (Playwright, mock-only): the ls-teaching
self-correction loop through the real UI.
Story: ``.agents/user_stories/agent-document-tools.md`` (this phase
repairs the model-facing contract the phase-70 tools reshaped — the
2026-09-03 incident: the harness-prior ``ls(path='.')`` misuse met the
terse refusal, and the model re-reasoned the same paragraphs over and
over before answering from the seed documents alone).
Run in isolation (DB must be up: ``podman compose up -d db``):
uv run pytest tests/e2e/test_tool_path_teaching.py -v --no-cov
MOCK-ONLY suite: ``E2E_REAL_LLM=1`` is not supported — the gate is the
deterministic LS-TEACH flow in ``tests/e2e/mock_llm.py``
(``LS_TEACH_TRIGGER`` — "list the files in this directory" — + the
HIGH prompt's ``<tools>`` section; phase 94: the drill-down ``ls`` —
the corrected no-arg listing carries sources only, so the flow drills
one level before the first file line exists): the incident's misuse
(``ls`` with ``{"path": "."}``, id ``call_0``) → the agent's teaching
refusal (``No source named '.' — check the ls output. (…)``) → the
corrected no-arg ``ls()`` (id ``call_1``) → the drill ``ls`` scoped to
the first source of the listing (id ``call_2``) → the deterministic
``These are the indexed documents: <first file line>`` answer.
KB fixture (TRUNCATE-then-seed, house pattern): ONE source with TWO
documents of known ``source``/``path``/``title`` (catalog order =
``(source, path)``, so the first catalog line is deterministic):
* ``Homelab/aws-route53.md`` — the CATALOG-FIRST document, indexed
WITHOUT chunks (catalog-only; never in the retrieval context, so
the single-read flow's ``read`` of it is NOT deduped as already-in-
context). Its FIRST line is longer than 80 chars, so the mock's
first-80-chars quote (the single-read regression turn) stays
newline-free.
* ``Homelab/example-record-file.json`` — the retrievable document:
one chunk whose embedding is the mock's own bag-of-words vector
(the trigger question cosines well past the E2E 0.30 threshold and
FTS-matches too → grounded, the ``<tools>`` section rides along).
It is the seed context only — the single-read flow reads the
catalog-FIRST document, not the seed.
Test → phase mapping (Playwright Mapping Rule):
1. ``test_ls_misuse_self_corrects_to_noarg_listing`` — the grounded
LS-TEACH turn: the turn settles (composer re-enables, ``done``
observed), the answer bubble carries the first file line — the
first document's ``source:`` / ``path:`` / title fields (the
folder listing reached the model and landed in the answer), the UI
shows the three tool lines (``🔎 Listing documents in
<code>.</code>``, ``🔎 Listing documents``, then the drill
``🔎 Listing documents in <source>`` — phase 94), and no error
banner. Wire level: the ``tool`` frames arrive in order — first
``ls`` with ``argument: "."``, then ``ls`` with ``argument: null``,
then the drill ``ls`` scoped to the source — and there is NO fourth
``tool`` frame (the loop ended in one correction + one drill, not
at the round cap).
2. ``test_plain_tool_flow_not_swallowed_by_new_trigger`` — in the SAME
session, the LS-TEACH turn settles and a follow-up question
carrying ``TOOLS_TRIGGER`` (the single-read flow) still settles
with the read flow's answer (``ls`` → the drill ``ls`` (phase 94)
→ ``read`` on the first file line's combined identity →
``Read <source/path>. <quote>``) — the new flow did not swallow
the existing trigger.
