# Add timeout support to workspace bash tool
This PR adds a timeout feature to the workspace bash tool, allowing
users to specify a maximum execution time for commands. Key changes
include:
- Added a `timeout_ms` parameter to control command execution time
(defaults to 60 seconds, with a maximum of 5 minutes)
- Implemented a new `executeCommandWithTimeout` function that properly
handles command timeouts
- Added proper output capturing during timeout scenarios, returning all
output collected before the timeout
- Updated documentation to explain the timeout feature and provide usage
examples
- Added comprehensive tests for the timeout functionality, including
integration tests
When a command times out, the tool now returns all captured output up to
that point along with a cancellation message, making it clear to users
what happened.

This pull request addresses a bug related to a nil pointer dereference
in the task reporting functionality.
### Bug Fixes and Error Handling:
* Updated `RegisterTools` in `mcp.go` to skip registering the
`ReportTask` tool in the remote MCP context when a task reporter is not
configured, preventing potential nil pointer dereference panics.
* Added a check in `toolsdk.go` to ensure task reporting dependencies
are available before invoking the reporter, returning an appropriate
error if not.
### Test Coverage:
* Added `TestReportTaskNilPointerDeref` in `toolsdk_test.go` to verify
that the system does not panic when task reporting dependencies are
missing and instead returns a clear error message.
* Added `TestReportTaskWithReporter` in `toolsdk_test.go` to validate
correct behavior when a task reporter is configured, ensuring the
handler processes the request as expected.

- Refactors the bash tool to use `io.Discard` instead of nil to avoid panics.
- Enhances panic recovery in `codersdk/toolsdk/toolsdk.go` by adding stack trace information in development builds. When a panic occurs in a tool handler:
- In development builds: The error includes the full stack trace for easier debugging
- In production builds: A simpler error message is shown without the stack trace
# Add SSH Command Execution Tool for Coder Workspaces
This PR adds a new AI tool `coder_workspace_ssh_exec` that allows executing commands in Coder workspaces via SSH. The tool provides functionality similar to the `coder ssh <workspace> <command>` CLI command.
Key features:
- Executes commands in workspaces via SSH and returns the output and exit code
- Automatically starts workspaces if they're stopped
- Waits for the agent to be ready before executing commands
- Trims leading and trailing whitespace from command output
- Supports various workspace identifier formats:
- `workspace` (uses current user)
- `owner/workspace`
- `owner--workspace`
- `workspace.agent` (specific agent)
- `owner/workspace.agent`
The implementation includes:
- A new tool definition with schema and handler
- Helper functions for workspace and agent discovery
- Workspace name normalization to handle different input formats
- Comprehensive test coverage including integration tests
This tool enables AI assistants to execute commands in user workspaces, making it possible to automate tasks and provide more interactive assistance.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **New Features**
* Introduced the ability to execute bash commands inside a Coder workspace via SSH, supporting multiple workspace identification formats.
* **Tests**
* Added comprehensive unit and integration tests for executing bash commands in workspaces, including input validation, output handling, and error scenarios.
* **Chores**
* Registered the new bash execution tool in the global tools list.

Closes#17791
This PR adds ability to cancel workspace builds that are in "pending"
status.
Breaking changes:
- CancelWorkspaceBuild method in codersdk now accepts an optional
request parameter
API:
- Added `expect_status` query parameter to the cancel workspace build
endpoint
- This parameter ensures the job hasn't changed state before canceling
- API returns `412 Precondition Failed` if the job is not in the
expected status
- Valid values: `running` or `pending`
- Wrapped the entire cancel method in a database transaction
UI:
- Added confirmation dialog to the `Cancel` button, since it's a
destructive operation


- Enabled cancel action for pending workspaces (`expect_status=pending`
is sent if workspace is in pending status)

"Idle" is more accurate than "complete" since:
1. AgentAPI only knows if the screen is active; it has no way of knowing
if the task is complete.
2. The LLM might be done with its current prompt, but that does not mean
the task is complete either (it likely needs refinement).
The "complete" state will be reserved for future definition.
Additionally, in the case where the screen goes idle but the LLM never
reported a status update, we can get an idle icon without a message, and
it looks kinda janky in the UI so if there is no message I display the
state text.
Closes https://github.com/coder/internal/issues/699
This is meant to complement the existing task reporter since the LLM
does not call it reliably.
It also includes refactoring to use the common agent flags/env vars.

# Allow MCP server to run without authentication
This PR enhances the MCP server to operate without requiring authentication, making it more flexible for environments where authentication isn't available or necessary. Key changes:
- Replaced `InitClient` with `TryInitClient` to allow the MCP server to start without credentials
- Added graceful handling when URL or authentication is missing
- Made authentication status visible in server logs
- Added logic to skip user-dependent tools when no authenticated user is present
- Made the `coder_report_task` tool available with just an agent token (no user token required)
- Added comprehensive tests to verify operation without authentication
These changes allow the MCP server to function in more environments while still using authentication when available, improving flexibility for CI/CD and other automated environments.
* Refactors toolsdk.Tools to remove opaque `map[string]any` argument in
favour of typed args structs.
* Refactors toolsdk.Tools to remove opaque passing of dependencies via
`context.Context` in favour of a tool dependencies struct.
* Adds panic recovery and clean context middleware to all tools.
* Adds `GenericTool` implementation to allow keeping `toolsdk.All` with
uniform type signature while maintaining type information in handlers.
* Adds stricter checks to `patchWorkspaceAgentAppStatus` handler.
https://github.com/coder/coder/pull/17163 introduced the
`workspace_app_statuses` table. Two of these fields
(`needs_user_attention`, `icon`) turned out to be surplus to
requirements.
- Removes columns `needs_user_attention` and `icon` from
`workspace_app_statuses`
- Marks the corresponding fields of `codersdk.WorkspaceAppStatus` as
deprecated.
Fixes two issues with the MCP server:
- Ensures we have a non-null schema, as the following schema was making
claude-code unhappy:
```
"inputSchema": { "type": "object", "properties": null },
```
- Skip adding the coder_report_task tool if an agent client is not
available. Otherwise the agent may try to report tasks and get confused.
- Refactors existing `mcp` package to use `kylecarbs/aisdk-go` and moves
to `codersdk/toolsdk` package.
- Updates existing MCP server implementation to use `codersdk/toolsdk`
