Auto-clear completed task lists on new prompt#512
Merged
Conversation
When a new prompt is sent and all tasks in the task list are done, automatically clear the list so the model starts fresh. The cleared state is sent to the client as a synthetic toolCalled event, reusing the existing task-details rendering path. No protocol or client changes.

Pull request overview
Implements automatic task-list cleanup at the start of a new chat prompt: if the current task list exists and all tasks are :done, the server clears the task state and emits a synthetic toolCalled event so clients re-render via the existing task-details UI path (no client changes intended).
Changes:
- Add
task/auto-clear-completed!plus tests for when auto-clear should/shouldn’t trigger. - Invoke auto-clear during
chat/promptand emit a synthetic:toolCalledevent to clients. - Update the task tool prompt guidance and add an Unreleased changelog entry.
