fix(checkpoints): keep the task-start baseline from broadcasting a current checkpoint - #2399
The task-start baseline save records a checkpoint of the workspace before the task writes anything.
That save currently reaches the webview as currentCheckpointUpdated, which is the message the
completion card builds its "See New Changes" affordance from, so every completed task offers to show
changes pointing at a commit that holds no user change.
This unit suppresses that one broadcast and nothing else:
Task.ts passes a third argument, suppressBroadcast, through Task.checkpointSave to checkpointSave in src/core/checkpoints/index.ts, from there into the saveCheckpoint
options and the checkpoint event payload (src/services/checkpoints/types.ts, src/services/checkpoints/ShadowCheckpointService.ts).
The service handler gates only the postMessageToWebview call of type currentCheckpointUpdated. The flag is threaded, not inferred from suppressMessage, which is
a different thing (a chat row) and is used by saves the user can still act on.
The baseline commit is still produced (allowEmpty unchanged) and is still recorded by the checkpoint_saved row below the gate, so rollback keeps its baseline restore point.
Saves a user can act on keep broadcasting: the per-write checkpoints, Task.ts:2485 and presentAssistantMessage.ts:1200 are untouched.
The call-site comment names the consequence ("every completed task shows a See New Changes affordance
pointing at a commit that holds no user change"). A screenshot is not the justification.
Why this branch sits on 1406 head instead of the tip
git grep -F row counts, tip 18861b2e3572 versus e3dd44cb0b65 (this branch's parent, 1406 head): taskStartBaselineDone 0 vs 4, baselineEnabled 0 vs 3, perWriteCheckpoints 0 vs 37. src/core/checkpoints/index.ts is 404 lines at the tip and 546 at my parent. The handler and the
baseline call site this unit edits only exist at my parent, so the branch is based there. Declared
base is main. Until 1406 lands, GitHub prices this PR as 1406 plus this commit; once 1406 lands the
same head prices this commit alone.
Budget (measured with the gate's own instrument)
Instrument: scripts/stryker-diff.mjs read out of this head - 30,108 B, 869 lines, sha256-16 c332971815aecfaf, byte-identical to the copy at the tip 18861b2e3572. Caps: 500 changed
executable lines, 400 mutants per package.

at this head: " has changed executable lines (limit 500). Split the PR or obtain a
maintainer-reviewed narrow exclusion."
Correction to a line I repeated from earlier rounds: 1406 prices 468 at 18861b2e3572, so its headroom
is 32 lines, and this unit costs 26. The arithmetic does not forbid 1406 from hosting it - 493 of 500 -
it rides its own branch because of one-push-per-PR-per-round, not because of the cap.
Tests
src/core/checkpoints/__tests__/checkpoint.test.ts, new describe "checkpointSave - task-start baseline
broadcast suppression": the flag reaches saveCheckpoint only when asked; allowEmpty is still in force
so a clean workspace still commits; a suppressed save posts no currentCheckpointUpdated and still runs
the checkpoint_saved row; a real user checkpoint (the Task.ts:2485 shape) still posts exactly one
broadcast with the right hash. Task.spec.ts baseline block: three assertions name the third argument,
plus a control that the baseline still commits and the once-per-instance flag still flips on that commit.
One existing expectation at checkpoint.test.ts:134 gained suppressBroadcast: false because the options
object it pins now carries the key; nothing else was loosened.

Read before merging: stack order and the declared base
This head descends from #1406 at e3dd44cb0b658a0de3a31e76ad29b4d38bf2e82b, so the diff GitHub shows
against main is 1406's unit plus this commit until 1406 lands. Merge order: 1406 first, then this PR.
Merging this PR first would land 493 changed executable lines of another unit's content through a PR whose
own delta is 26 changed executable lines and 187 added plus deleted. Nothing else in this body says so, so
it is said here.
Declared base at merge time: main, at whatever head carries 1406. Re-read in the call that published
this sentence: main = 18861b2e357203e6cb4d93930aa2ed122b1eecea (Date header Tue, 10 Nov 2026 05:45:10 GMT; also read unchanged at 05:39:00Z,
05:39:23Z and 05:44:34Z). Pricing legs, measured with the instrument checked out at this head (30,108 B,
869 lines, sha256-16 c332971815aecfaf; caps 500 changed executable lines and 400 mutants per package):
against its own parent e3dd44cb0b658a0de3a31e76ad29b4d38bf2e82b, which is also the merge base:
extension 26 changed executable lines; a+d 187 (6 files, +171 / -16).
against 18861b2e357203e6cb4d93930aa2ed122b1eecea: merge base 332d30fbb9d8852a61b4512a5ce550e10cf84f24,
extension 493, webview 21, types 7 - that is 1406 plus this unit.
against 332d30fbb9d8852a61b4512a5ce550e10cf84f24: same merge base, same numbers.
No cap fired at any of the three bases, so there is no refusal to quote: the advisories array came back
empty in all three runs. Saying that out loud matters because the queue has been trained to expect a
refusal on a PR that prices 493.
Refresh (task-106): the unit tree carries this branch's content merged with
upstream/main 332d30f at the two conflicting paths, resolved as a union that keeps
each side's payload. Shaped as a one-parent commit so the mutation gate prices the unit
delta against main rather than main's own payload (mutation-testing.yml lines 52-56).
…rrent checkpoint
The baseline save records the workspace state before the task writes anything.
Broadcasting it as the webview current checkpoint makes every completed task
offer a See New Changes affordance pointing at a commit that holds no user
change. Only that broadcast is suppressed, and only for that save: the commit
is still produced with allowEmpty and still recorded in checkpoint history, so
rollback keeps its baseline restore point. Saves a user can act on, including
the per-write checkpoints and the post-loop save, keep broadcasting normally.
Everything below was run on this machine, in the directory named on the line. Measured numbers come
from the printed output of the command on that line; anything I only inherited is labelled "heard".

that finishes in about a second with an unchanged table would not be a repair; this one printed the table.
Lifecycle gate (read before touching task status)
docs/architecture/task-lifecycle-model.md read at my parent: 49,440 B, 273 lines. Keyword sweep over checkpoint, baseline, broadcast, currentCheckpointUpdated, affordance, checkpointSave returned
7 rows (lines 9, 20, 147, 149, 198, 203, 237), all about the lifecycle model checker baseline and
serial-delegation permits. Nothing in it forbids suppressing this broadcast, so the "stop and quote"
condition did not apply. pnpm lifecycle:model-check on the committed tree: exit 0, 8 sub-checks, each
printed its own pass line (shared-store 625 states, provider handoff 104 states, cleanup protocol
57,366 states, tool-call parser scoping 924/924 interleavings, completion persistence 88 states,
file replacement 213 states, delegated-mode reader 5/5, tool-turn continuation 648/5184).
Typecheck pair
pnpm --dir src run check-types (the src tsc --noEmit script) in the worktree at the committed tree:
exit 0, no error rows. Control at the tip: the same command in wt-task106-install (HEAD 18861b2e3572, porcelain 0) also exit 0, so the pair is a pair and not a one-sided claim.
Whole-package lint, with the mistake it caught
First run of pnpm --dir src run lint on my patch: exit 1, "7 problems (7 errors, 0 warnings)", all
in src/core/checkpoints/__tests__/checkpoint.test.ts: no-explicit-any at 44, 45, 46, 487, 533, 565 and no-unused-expressions at 502. Lines 44-46 are pre-existing; 487/533/565 are mine. That is what the
suppression plugin does when a file goes past its recorded count - it reports the whole set, not just
the excess. src/eslint-suppressions.json records {"@typescript-eslint/no-explicit-any":{"count":3}}
for that spec, and the same command in wt-task106-1406 at the clean head (porcelain 0) exited 0 with
no problem rows, which is the negative control that proves the 7 were mine. Fixes, in order: a stray ), after the first it(...) (the no-unused-expressions row), a typed CheckpointPayload / PostedWebviewMessage pair replacing my three new any annotations, and a broadcastPosts() helper.
After that: pnpm --dir src run lint exit 0, pnpm --dir src exec eslint --max-warnings=0 --no-warn-ignored over the six touched files exit 0, ": any" rows in the spec back to 3, and git status --porcelain -- src/eslint-suppressions.json = 0 rows: the file is untouched and no count moved.
Focused suites, from src (the package that declares vitest)
command (run as pnpm --dir src run ... in the worktree)
The journal suites matter because the new argument is a fifth parameter, appended after write?, so the
twelve journal call sites and their specs keep their positional shape. Two files I named in an earlier
round, rollback.spec.ts and changeCard.spec.ts, are not in this tree at all: vitest answered "No test
files found, exiting with code 1", which is a fact about 1410's tree, not about this one.
The two controls the unit is required to carry
Armed with node .tmp-cr-audit/s3lane/task130-mutant.mjs <worktree> <mode>, which rewrites the gate row
(line 193 of src/core/checkpoints/index.ts) from the committed blob and restores from the same blob.
suppress-all (an armed mutant that suppresses every currentCheckpointUpdated): 1 failed / 39 passed,
exit 1, and the failing test is "still broadcasts the current checkpoint after a real user
checkpoint", the test that asserts the affordance message after a save the user can act on. tsc on
the same mutant: exit 0 - types do not catch this, only the test does.
never-suppress (the flag is ignored): 1 failed / 39 passed, exit 1, failing test "suppresses only the
current-checkpoint broadcast for the baseline save".
baseline commit control: keeps allowEmpty in force so a clean workspace still commits the baseline
(the save resolves a commit object) and Task.spec.ts "produces the baseline commit while suppressing
only its broadcast" (the save is called once with (true, true, true) and the once-per-instance flag
still flips because a commit came back). Together these are the 0-listener / 1-listener analogue:
the baseline commit exists and is recorded while nothing is broadcast.
Hook proof for the commit and the push
.husky listing in the worktree (recursive, including _): 20 entries - pre-commit 562 B, pre-push
1,385 B. Inside _/ there are 17 files: 14 hook stubs of 39 B each, h (551 B), husky.sh (160 B) and .gitignore (1 B); the other three entries are _/ itself and the two repository hook files pre-commit (562 B) and pre-push (1,385 B). _/h and _/pre-commit are the two whose absence
broke the hooks in the 1406 worktree in an earlier round, so both are named here.
the two that were missing in the 1406 worktree in an earlier round, so they are named here. git commit -F (no --no-verify): exit 0, lint-staged ran and named the single scope it applied - src/**/*.ts - 6 files with every other glob SKIPPED - and inside it pnpm --dir src exec eslint --max-warnings=0 --no-warn-ignored completed and prettier --write completed. Both hook commands were
then re-run by hand against the committed content: the eslint command exit 0, npx prettier --check over
the six files exit 0 ("All matched files use Prettier code style!"). git push origin refs/heads/...:refs/heads/... (no --no-verify): exit 0, pre-push ran tsc -p tsconfig.json --noEmit && turbo check-types and printed its cache state: 12 successful,
12 total, Cached 10 cached, 12 total, Time 19.985s, remote caching disabled, shared worktree cache.
Two tasks executed rather than reported from cache: zoo-code:check-types (cache miss, 3cd481c541c741e6,
the extension package this unit changes) and @roo-code/vscode-webview:check-types (cache miss,
bf2fc1017ae8f2a6). The other ten are cache hits, so the hook proves my package was typechecked and does
not claim the other ten were re-run. .env.local is absent, so the optional test step did not run.
Porcelain 0 before the commit, 0 after, 0 before the push, 0 after. ls-remote for the ref before: 0 rows
(no stray branch). After: 720b2bf... refs/heads/s3/1395/task130-baseline-broadcast, equal to the local
head. My first reading of that comparison printed REMOTE_SHA=7: this shell is Windows PowerShell 5.1,
where -split "\s+" is literal rather than a regex, so the field never split. Recomputed with an
explicit tab split: remote = local = 720b2bfee56199d7728882c0db5d5660915fcf7a.
Pricing, with the two bases named and the merge base named
node .tmp-cr-audit/s3lane/task130-price.mjs <worktree> <head> <bases...> imports selectFromGit from the instrument checked out in the worktree: 30,108 B, 869 lines, sha256-16 c332971815aecfaf, the same bytes as the copy at the tip. Caps 500 lines / 400 mutants.
vs e3dd44cb0b658a0de3a31e76ad29b4d38bf2e82b (merge base the same): extension 26 changed executable
lines, under. a+d 187 (6 files, +171 / -16).
vs 18861b2e357203e6cb4d93930aa2ed122b1eecea (tip): merge base 332d30fbb9d8852a61b4512a5ce550e10cf84f24,
so this run prices 1406 plus this unit: extension 493, webview 21, types 7. All under.
vs 332d30fbb9d8852a61b4512a5ce550e10cf84f24: identical merge base and identical numbers.
No cap fired at any base, so advisories came back empty and the gate printed no refusal to quote.
The sentence it prints when it does fire, quoted from scripts/stryker-diff.mjs:265-268 in this tree:
"${packageEntry.id} has ${packageEntry.changedExecutableLines} changed executable lines (limit
500). Split the PR or obtain a maintainer-reviewed narrow exclusion." 1410 at 18861b2e3572 is the
case where it fires - 778 lines - which is why its unit is where it is.
zdt is not on this machine: where zdt found nothing, node_modules/.bin/zdt.CMD does not exist, and git grep for zdt across scripts, docs, package.json, .github returned 0 files. The manual
equivalent from zoo-split-execution was run item by item: fidelity (per-file diff against the source
of record - the six files here are this unit's own content, no foreign file), a+d against the unit's
own base (187), mutation preflight (the priced instrument run above, plus the two armed mutants),
changed-line coverage (deferred, see below), cross-unit duplicate symbols (no new shared helper - the
unit adds an optional parameter to existing functions and no new exported name), PR body hand-written
(above), gate config read from the ruleset (six required contexts listed in my 1410 comment).
Verdict: no violation to document.
Things I said before measuring, and what the measurement said
I first said the handler test helper worked; it returned registration[0], the event name string, and
the suite answered TypeError: handler is not a function. Fixed to registration[1].
I first said broadcastPosts() returned messages; it returned call-argument arrays, and the run
answered expected [ { ...3 } ] to deeply equal { ...3 }. Fixed to map the messages out.
My first pass replaced 3 of the 5 (true, true) assertions in Task.spec.ts; two tests kept failing
with expected "checkpointSave" to be called with arguments: [ true, true ] at lines 7269 and 7412
until I counted the occurrences (2 left) and replaced them.
My first mutant script reported ARMED_M1=yes and ARMED_M2=yes and 40 passed both times. It was not
armed: Set-Content -Encoding utf8NoBOM is not a valid enumerator in this shell, so the rewrite never
landed and both "mutant" runs were the unmutated tree. Those two rows are discarded, not reinterpreted;
the armed runs above are from a node helper that writes the file and prints whether it differs from HEAD.
My pricing script failed twice on its own syntax (a computed string in a static import ... from, then
type annotations inside a .mjs). Both are mine, both fixed before the run whose numbers are above.
An earlier prettier --check invocation passed the six paths as one argument and printed "No files
matching the pattern" with exit 2 next to "All matched files use Prettier code style!". Re-run with
one argument per file: exit 0.
The install job printed PORCELAIN_AFTER=4; the tree now shows only my six files and 0 untracked. The
four rows were install-transient, and I did not capture them before they went, so I am not claiming
what they were.
Deferred, with the reason
Local Stryker preflight on the unit delta: the run dies in .stryker-tmp with spawnSync ENOENT on
win32 in this checkout (recorded from earlier rounds, not re-attempted here). The priced instrument
run and the two armed mutants stand in for it, and CI's mutation-diff is the arbiter.
Changed-line coverage for the six files: needs --coverage over a whole lane; not run here.
pnpm --dir src run test for the whole package, coverage lanes, test:dist, and the lifecycle lanes
beyond lifecycle:model-check: not run on this unit.
extension-host-visual cannot be run with my token locally (no Electron visual lane here); I report its
conclusion by id when CI runs it, and I do not infer it.
The four sibling widths (1560, 1562, 1567, 2226) and 1404's dirty tree stay deferred from earlier rounds.
Added a setting to automatically create a checkpoint after successful file writes. It’s enabled by default and can be turned off in checkpoint settings.
Multi-file patches create a single checkpoint, with file changes recorded for review and recovery.
Tasks now save a baseline checkpoint at startup when checkpoints are enabled.
Bug Fixes
Aborted tasks no longer dequeue queued messages.
Adds default-on per-write checkpoints and a task-start baseline, exposes the setting in extension and webview state, and records write metadata in a per-task JSONL journal with recovery markers. File-write tools checkpoint successful changes; apply_patch batches its writes into one checkpoint.
Adds a default-on perWriteCheckpoints setting, passes it through extension and webview state, and adds a settings checkbox with translations.
Journal storage and recovery src/core/checkpoints/changeJournal.ts, src/core/checkpoints/__tests__/changeJournal.spec.ts
Adds validated task-scoped journal paths, durable JSONL writes, pending and incomplete markers, and recovery that filters and deduplicates entries.
Checkpoint save and journal integration src/core/checkpoints/index.ts, src/services/checkpoints/*, src/core/checkpoints/__tests__/*
Checkpoint saves accept write metadata and broadcast suppression. Committed writes are recorded in the journal through recovery markers. Checkpoint event handling and initialization tests cover broadcast and service states.
Successful edits and writes save checkpoint metadata when enabled. apply_patch collects completed writes and saves one checkpoint, including recorded writes when later processing fails.
The per-write checkpoint feature works in its main paths. Two edge cases are worth fixing before merge. A rare error after a file write can leave that write without a checkpoint. The new setting can also be turned on while automatic checkpoints are off, where it does nothing.

Full details: Security Boundaries
Explanation
No changed path was found that leaks secrets or PII, executes unvalidated input, or bypasses approval or allowlist controls. The changed write paths retain approval and access checks. Journal paths validate task IDs, and checkpoint staging retains the existing Git exclusions.
Full details: Lifecycle Resource Cleanup
Explanation
No changed lifecycle path was found that leaks a resource or duplicates work after cancellation, disposal, or restart. The baseline path checks the abort state before saving, and the task loop checks it before requests. Journal file handles close in finally blocks. Queued-message processing now stops when the task is aborted.
Full details: Persistence Integrity
Explanation
The new checkpoint journal can lose state in two paths: - src/core/checkpoints/index.ts:285-333 writes an awaiting-checkpoint marker without write metadata before the Git commit. If the host exits after the commit but before promotion, changeJournal.ts:303-321 clears that marker without recording the changes. checkpointJournalPromotion.test.ts:200-222 confirms this loss. - index.ts:281-295 returns without saving if the pending marker write fails. WriteToFileTool.ts:175-200 and EditFileTool.ts:439-480 have already written the file and reported success, so a storage error leaves the write without its checkpoint or journal entry and gives the user no failure indication.
Resolution
Persist recoverable write metadata and a transaction identity before committing, and reconcile the commit after restart. If checkpoint or journal persistence fails after a file write, retry or report the partial failure explicitly instead of reporting an unqualified success.

Full details: Regression Evidence
Explanation
The new per-write checkbox and description change the visible checkpoint settings (webview-ui/src/components/settings/CheckpointSettings.tsx:39-53). The PR adds Vitest behavior tests but no Playwright component snapshot. webview-ui/AGENTS.md:48 requires a snapshot for visible UI changes.

// Stryker disable next-line ConditionalExpression: normalized input cannot reach the alternate branch
const result = condition ? value : fallback
Broad all exclusions and exclusions without a concrete reason are reported as advisories.

Review comments at @src/core/tools/__tests__/applyPatchTool.execute.spec.ts:
- Around line 372-384: Update the no-op update test to assert that
mockedCheckpointSave receives mockTask, false, true, and an empty journal array,
in addition to verifying it is called once; ensure the no-op file is not
included in the journal.
Review comments at @src/core/tools/EditFileTool.ts:
- Around line 468-481: Move the per-write checkpointSave call to immediately
after the successful file-save branch and before trackFileContext or
pushToolWriteResult, preserving its existing write metadata and
perWriteCheckpoints guard so every completed write is journaled even if later
bookkeeping throws.
Review comments at @src/core/tools/WriteToFileTool.ts:
- Around line 188-201: Move the per-write checkpoint call in the WriteToFileTool
flow to immediately after the save branches and before trackFileContext and
pushToolWriteResult, so bookkeeping failures cannot leave a completed write
without checkpoint metadata. Preserve the existing checkpointSave arguments and
await behavior.
Review comments at @webview-ui/src/components/settings/CheckpointSettings.tsx:
- Around line 39-54: The per-write checkpoint setting remains usable when the
master toggle is off, although checkpoints are not created in that state. In
CheckpointSettings, render the enableCheckpoints control before the per-write
setting and gate the per-write setting on enableCheckpoints or disable it while
the master toggle is off; update the SettingsView test that selects the first
checkbox to reflect the changed control order.
Review comments at @webview-ui/src/components/settings/SettingsView.tsx:
- Line 449: Cover the nullish fallback for perWriteCheckpoints in the
SettingsView tests by rendering with that value undefined and verifying the
mutation payload defaults it to true. If the hydration path guarantees the value
is never nullish, remove the redundant fallback instead.
Review comments at @webview-ui/src/context/ExtensionStateContext.tsx:
- Line 258: Replace the hard-coded initial value for perWriteCheckpoints with
the shared DEFAULT_PER_WRITE_CHECKPOINTS constant so the pre-hydration value
stays aligned with the extension fallback.
Review comments at @webview-ui/src/i18n/locales/id/settings.json:
- Line 701: Update this setting’s Indonesian description to use “checkpoint”
consistently for both occurrences of the term, matching the label and existing
checkpoint translations.
Review comments at @webview-ui/src/i18n/locales/zh-CN/settings.json:
- Line 701: Update the checkpoint description in the zh-CN settings section to
use 存档点 consistently for both references, matching the label and nearby
translations; preserve the rest of the description unchanged.

Assert the checkpointSave arguments in the no-op update test.
The test checks only toHaveBeenCalledOnce(). The intended contract is that a no-op update passes an empty journal array and no entry for the unwritten file. A regression that journals the no-op file would still pass this test. Assert the arguments.

Checkpoint is skipped when post-write bookkeeping throws.
checkpointSave runs only after trackFileContext (Line 456) and pushToolWriteResult (Line 464) succeed. If either call throws after saveChanges or saveDirectly has written the file, execution jumps to the catch block. The write is then on disk with no checkpoint and no journal entry. The next checkpoint absorbs the change, so the journal attributes it to the wrong step.
ApplyPatchTool handles this case in this same PR. It records each write at the moment it lands and flushes from the catch block. edit_file has no equivalent. Move the checkpoint call to directly after the save, before trackFileContext. Alternatively, flush from the catch block when the write was completed.

The per-write checkbox ignores the master checkpoint toggle.
getCheckpointService returns undefined when task.enableCheckpoints is false. In that state no per-write checkpoint and no task-start baseline is created.
This component renders the per-write checkbox first. It renders it before the "Enable automatic checkpoints" control, and it stays enabled when enableCheckpoints is false. The timeout control on lines 77-106 is already gated on enableCheckpoints.
A user with automatic checkpoints off can check "Checkpoint after each file write", save, and get no checkpoints. Nothing tells them why.
Move the per-write block below the enable block. Then either gate it on enableCheckpoints, as the timeout control does, or mark it disabled. The SettingsView test at lines 613-641 seeds enableCheckpoints: false and selects the first checkbox. Update that test when you make this change.

The ?? DEFAULT_PER_WRITE_CHECKPOINTS fallback is never tested with an unset value.
The mutation-diff check reports that the perWriteCheckpoints && DEFAULT_PER_WRITE_CHECKPOINTS mutant survived. The fallback test at line 605 renders with createInitialExtensionState(), which sets perWriteCheckpoints: true. Because of that, the nullish branch never runs.
Add a test that renders with perWriteCheckpoints: undefined and asserts that the payload contains perWriteCheckpoints: true. If the value can never be nullish after hydration, the mutant is equivalent. In that case, remove the redundant fallback. This follows the path instruction: "When Stryker reports a surviving mutant on changed code, prefer a test that kills it. If the mutant is equivalent, prefer to delete the redundant branch."

449:
Cover the nullish fallback for perWriteCheckpoints in the SettingsView tests by
rendering with that value undefined and verifying the mutation payload defaults
it to true. If the hydration path guarantees the value is never nullish, remove
the redundant fallback instead.

Use the shared default constant for the initial value.
Line 258 hard-codes true. Lines 261-264 already explain why the pre-hydration value must use the shared default: it must not disagree with the extension's fallback. DEFAULT_PER_WRITE_CHECKPOINTS is that default here. If someone changes the constant, this literal will silently diverge.

Replace the hard-coded initial value for perWriteCheckpoints with the shared
DEFAULT_PER_WRITE_CHECKPOINTS constant so the pre-hydration value stays aligned
with the extension fallback.

Use one term for "checkpoint" in this setting.
The label on line 700 and the existing Indonesian checkpoint strings use "checkpoint". This description uses "titik pemeriksaan". The same setting then names the concept in two ways.

Update this setting’s Indonesian description to use “checkpoint” consistently
for both occurrences of the term, matching the label and existing checkpoint
translations.

Use 存档点 consistently.
The zh-CN checkpoint section uses 存档点 in the label on line 700 and in the existing strings on lines 692-697. This description uses 检查点. The UI then shows two names for the same concept.

What this unit does
The task-start baseline save records a checkpoint of the workspace before the task writes anything.
That save currently reaches the webview as
currentCheckpointUpdated, which is the message thecompletion card builds its "See New Changes" affordance from, so every completed task offers to show
changes pointing at a commit that holds no user change.
This unit suppresses that one broadcast and nothing else:
Task.tspasses a third argument,suppressBroadcast, throughTask.checkpointSavetocheckpointSaveinsrc/core/checkpoints/index.ts, from there into thesaveCheckpointoptions and the
checkpointevent payload (src/services/checkpoints/types.ts,src/services/checkpoints/ShadowCheckpointService.ts).postMessageToWebviewcall of typecurrentCheckpointUpdated. The flag is threaded, not inferred fromsuppressMessage, which isa different thing (a chat row) and is used by saves the user can still act on.
allowEmptyunchanged) and is still recorded by thecheckpoint_savedrow below the gate, so rollback keeps its baseline restore point.Task.ts:2485andpresentAssistantMessage.ts:1200are untouched.The call-site comment names the consequence ("every completed task shows a See New Changes affordance
pointing at a commit that holds no user change"). A screenshot is not the justification.
Why this branch sits on 1406 head instead of the tip
git grep -Frow counts, tip18861b2e3572versuse3dd44cb0b65(this branch's parent, 1406 head):taskStartBaselineDone0 vs 4,baselineEnabled0 vs 3,perWriteCheckpoints0 vs 37.src/core/checkpoints/index.tsis 404 lines at the tip and 546 at my parent. The handler and thebaseline call site this unit edits only exist at my parent, so the branch is based there. Declared
base is main. Until 1406 lands, GitHub prices this PR as 1406 plus this commit; once 1406 lands the
same head prices this commit alone.
Budget (measured with the gate's own instrument)
Instrument:
scripts/stryker-diff.mjsread out of this head - 30,108 B, 869 lines, sha256-16c332971815aecfaf, byte-identical to the copy at the tip18861b2e3572. Caps: 500 changedexecutable lines, 400 mutants per package.

gate printed no refusal. The text it prints when one does, quoted from
scripts/stryker-diff.mjs:265-268at this head: " has changed executable lines (limit 500). Split the PR or obtain a
maintainer-reviewed narrow exclusion."
Correction to a line I repeated from earlier rounds: 1406 prices 468 at
18861b2e3572, so its headroomis 32 lines, and this unit costs 26. The arithmetic does not forbid 1406 from hosting it - 493 of 500 -
it rides its own branch because of one-push-per-PR-per-round, not because of the cap.

This head descends from #1406 at
e3dd44cb0b658a0de3a31e76ad29b4d38bf2e82b, so the diff GitHub showsagainst main is 1406's unit plus this commit until 1406 lands. Merge order: 1406 first, then this PR.
Merging this PR first would land 493 changed executable lines of another unit's content through a PR whose
own delta is 26 changed executable lines and 187 added plus deleted. Nothing else in this body says so, so
it is said here.
