Host side of the tool_calling relocation (tinyagents #102 / #105 / #106), plus the removal the upstream repl deletion forces.

Bumps vendor/tinyagents to c6a5f24. Net −4,822 lines.


1. parse / pformat become adapters

The parsers moved upstream in tinyagents #102. What stays here is what speaks OpenHuman's own vocabulary:

File Before After What remains
agent/harness/parse.rs 1,145 148 four #[cfg(test)] helpers over OpenHuman's ToolCall / native-history JSON / OpenAI payload
agent/pformat.rs 499 129 two Tool-typed adapters
agent/harness/parse_tests.rs 489 128 the tests for those helpers

build_registry upstream takes (name, schema) pairs, because a host's tool type is its own vocabulary — depending on it would defeat the seam. So this keeps the one-line adapter reading Tool::name / Tool::parameters_schema.

No coverage was dropped. harness/tests.rs holds ~60 parser tests that were never part of the moved file; all 62 still run, now against the crate. That is what tinyagents #106 exists for — without those exports the host would have had to shadow the parsers it just gave up.

2. flows::rhai / rhai_workflows removed

tinyagents #107 deleted the Rhai REPL and RLM runtimes as host-side concerns (−11,746 lines), taking ReplSession, ReplPolicy, ReplResult and friends with them. openhuman::flows::rhai was built entirely on that API.

Because #106's exports land after #107 on main, there is no commit with the parser exports but without the repl removal — the two cannot be separated by pinning.

Removed: the 7-file flows/rhai/ tree, the tool registration and re-export, the flows-domain tool-list entry, the intelligence.language_workflows capability in about_app, and the tinyagents/repl feature dependency.

The orchestrator prompt mattered here. It advertised rhai_workflows in three places, and this codebase is explicit that a prompt may only name tools its agent can actually call — advertising one it lacks produces hallucinated calls that fail. The whole ## Language workflows (Rhai) section is gone, and the one inline mention now reads "sequence those explicitly".

Verification

Both Cargo worlds compile.

Suite Result
agent::harness::tests (parser) 62 passed
agent::pformat (adapters) 4 passed
dispatcher 75 passed
subagent_runner 81 passed
core::all (domain gates) 91 passed

cargo check clean on the root crate and app/src-tauri; cargo fmt --check clean.

One failure appears under a pformat name filter — turn_checkpoint_rejects_pformat_wrapup_without_streaming_it. It is a session::turn test caught by the filter, failing at turn_tests.rs:411 with no EmbeddingHost installed: a startup-global ordering issue in the known pre-existing family, unrelated to parsing.

# Conflicts:
#	Cargo.lock
#	vendor/tinyflows
The rhai scripting engine and its transitive dependencies (ahash, no-std-compat, smartstring, spin, static_assertions, thin-vec, and rhai_codegen) have been removed from the Cargo.lock file. This change reflects the removal of the rhai dependency from the project, which was no longer needed, and also adds the regex crate as a new dependency in the process.

Reformatted the test vector initialization in the registry key test to wrap the line at a more conventional width, improving code readability without changing any behavior.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change removes Rhai workflow support, removes its feature and tool registration paths, and delegates tool-call and P-format parsing from OpenHuman to tinyagents.

Changes

Parser delegation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Tool-call parser adapter
src/openhuman/agent/harness/parse.rs, src/openhuman/agent/harness/parse_tests.rs, vendor/tinyagents
OpenHuman re-exports tool-call parsing APIs and ParsedToolCall from tinyagents. Remaining tests document OpenHuman-specific coverage.
P-format adapter and validation
src/openhuman/agent/pformat.rs
Registry construction, parsing, coercion, and signature rendering delegate to tinyagents. Adapter tests cover names, schemas, positional parsing, unknown tools, and signature consistency.

Rhai workflow removal

Layer / File(s) Summary
Feature and module removal
Cargo.toml, src/openhuman/flows/mod.rs, src/openhuman/flows/rhai/*
The flows feature no longer enables tinyagents/repl, and the Rhai module, bridge, operations, policy, sessions, tools, types, and README are removed.
Tool and product integration cleanup
src/openhuman/tools/mod.rs, src/openhuman/tools/ops.rs, src/openhuman/tools/ops_tests.rs, src/openhuman/platform/about_app/catalog_data.rs
Rhai tool exports, registration, flow classification, feature-gate expectations, and the language-workflows catalog entry are removed.
Documentation and test updates
src/core/all_tests.rs, src/openhuman/agent/registry/agents/orchestrator/prompt.md
Gate documentation and orchestrator guidance no longer reference rhai_workflows; dependent subtasks must be identified explicitly.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to b32ed

The PR relocates tool-call parsing and removes the Rhai workflow tool and its prompt exposure. It is mergeable with owner awareness because two bounded follow-ups remain: adapter tests rely on JSON property ordering, and dependency documentation still mentions removed workflow functionality; neither is supported by current evidence as a production-blocking defect.

Poem

I’m a rabbit with code in my paws,
Rhai workflows vanish without pause.
Tinyagents parse each call,
P-format tests guard them all.
Cleaner flows now hop along.

Make the fixture independent of serde_json::Map ordering.

If a transitive dependency enables preserve_order, the fixture preserves value, count. Then parse_call("echo[3|hi]") binds the values to the wrong parameters, and the hard-coded signature fails. Define the properties in count, value order so both map representations produce the same result.

Update the matching stale comment earlier in this file.

The new note here states that tinyagents dropped repl/rlm and that nothing references them. The comment block at Lines 174-176 still says the opposite: it describes the rhai_workflows tool at src/openhuman/rhai_workflows/ and says the default-ON flows feature enables it via tinyagents/repl. That path and that feature are both removed by this PR, so the two comments now contradict each other.
