perf: optimize Flow execution and compact checkpoints - #182
Idle Waits retain execution sessions for two minutes, and checkpoints repeat shared ancestor output snapshots. This PR persists idle Waits immediately and stores shared dependency frames and result references, allowing waiting Runs to release execution resources and avoiding repeated checkpoint payloads.
Changes
Run trusted graph scheduling, managed Tasks and node event persistence in the Server process. Keep user Code in the isolated Executor.
Add an independent deployment-wide Task budget. Complete initial Task admission before the node timeout starts, release queued admissions on cancellation, and lend slots while Code or Agent workflow tools wait for child Runs. The node timeout continues while waiting for child Runs and reacquiring Task slots. Pending workflow-call status checks bypass Task admission.
Preserve one active Run per Flow so Flow State read-modify-write sequences remain serialized.
Introduce checkpoint v7 with shared input frames and result references, retaining recovery of published v6 checkpoints.
Upgrade Open Flow and Command to 0.1.0-beta.86, update Zod to 4.6.7, configure the VS Code tsrs SDK, and ignore local Claude files.
Compatibility
The isolated runtime identity advances to open-flow-isolated-vm/5. The previous Server digest remains accepted for every supported Engine contract, while older published digests retain their original Engine restrictions. Existing checkpoint bytes stay unchanged until execution writes a new checkpoint. Older deployments cannot resume v7 checkpoints, so finish affected Runs before downgrading. Control API conformance accepts both immediate Wait freezing and in-memory retention.
Validation
bun install --frozen-lockfile
bun run check
Open Flow full suite: 3,442 tests passed.
Server build and focused runtime/integration suite: 462 tests passed across 14 files.
bun run --filter @oomol-lab/open-flow test:package passed for 0.1.0-beta.86, including the isolated package consumer and bundled Command.
The package check's optional real Node PNG rendering was skipped because OPEN_FLOW_RENDER_BROWSER_PATH was not configured.

Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Added a configurable deployment-wide limit for concurrent tasks, defaulting to 16. Tasks wait for an available slot before their execution timeout begins.
Waiting workflows now save their progress and release execution capacity when no other work is active. Workflow calls can lend capacity to child workflows and reclaim it when they resume.
Improvements
Updated checkpoint handling to use a more compact format, while retaining recovery support for previously published checkpoints.
Runs affected by a lost Code Executor are now reported as having an indeterminate outcome.
Runs with unresolved waits are reported as waiting rather than running.
Walkthrough
The Scheduler now writes compact v7 checkpoints and can recover published v6 checkpoints. Idle Runs with pending Waits are checkpointed without a retention delay. The Server runs graph scheduling and managed Tasks, and invokes Code through the isolated Executor. A deployment-wide task limit controls admission. Workflow-call slots are suspended while child Runs execute. Executor loss can make affected Run outcomes indeterminate.

Explanation
The title "perf: optimize Flow execution and compact checkpoints" follows the required <type>(<scope>): <subject> format with the optional scope omitted, and it is in English. It names two main aspects of the changeset: Flow execution changes (idle Wait persistence, Task admission budget, slot release) and checkpoint v7 compaction (shared frames and result references). The title does not mention the deployment-wide Task budget or the Executor/Server process split, so it is broad, but it is related to the main change.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description states the goals (persisting idle Waits immediately, storing shared dependency frames and result references) and lists the concrete changes: process split of scheduling and Tasks, deployment-wide Task budget, one active Run per Flow, checkpoint v7, version bumps, and VS Code and Claude ignore settings. It also gives compatibility notes and validation results. It is clearly related to the changeset.

…tion
- Add the Scheduler admitTask hook so Task budget queueing completes before
a node's timeoutMs starts; the Server admits through it instead of
acquiring slots in node.started, managed Tasks and capability calls.
- Track overlapping workflow tool waits per invocation: the Task slot stays
lent until the last child call returns, avoiding slot starvation when a
node calls several workflows in parallel.
- Restore one active Run per Flow so Flow State read-modify-write sequences
do not interleave.
- Let Control API conformance accept both in-memory Wait retention and
immediate freezing for paused and resolved Run statuses.

- Line 60: Update the timeout claim around timeoutMs and Pending workflow-call
status to distinguish initial admission from slot reacquisition: clarify that
initial admission queueing does not consume the timeout, while reacquiring the
parent Task slot after a Code or Agent workflow tool finishes can consume its
node timeout under contention.

Keep the Task budget when a concurrent call returns
When Code handles one workflow result while another call is still waiting, resume can return without reacquiring the permit. The parent can then execute alongside a child Task and exceed OPEN_FLOW_MAX_CONCURRENT_TASKS.
Rework slot lending so a returned result cannot resume Code without a permit, while later child waits can still make progress.

Rework slot lending around #slots.resume and #resumeWorkflowCaller so a workflow
result cannot resume Code unless its Task permit is held, even when another
workflow call remains pending. Preserve progress for later child waits by
coordinating permit reacquisition with outstanding calls rather than blocking
the child work needed to free a slot.
If two Runs of the same Flow overlap while the aggregate peak stays at two, this test can pass. Track active LLM calls by Flow and assert that each Flow has at most one active call. Keep the aggregate assertion to check that different Flows can proceed together.
