These issues and PRs address a problem where the /steer command does not interrupt at the correct point during tool execution, instead waiting until generation completes before running. The work involves deferring unstarted tools and handling breakout behavior when steer arrives mid-execution.

How this cluster was grouped
  • Link evidence (partly structural links): some members are connected by structural evidence (shared changed files, or a closing/superseded reference); the rest are joined by an automated relevance judgement over their text.
  • Members outside that structural core may belong to a different underlying problem.
  • Pairwise link density 0.39: the share of item pairs that carry a link, counting a structural link in full and a relevance-only link at 0.36. 1.00 means every pair is linked.
