Task history gets unexpectedly truncated

[pwilkin]

App Version

3.23.15

API Provider

OpenRouter

Model Used

deepseek-r1-0528

Roo Code Task Links (Optional)

No response

🔁 Steps to Reproduce

After cancelling a running task, the entire task history suddenly disappeared. From further conversation, it seemed that internally Roo still held the conversation, i.e. the model coherently referenced earlier fragments of the conversation due to it being not visible, but signalling completion resulted in the "gray action button" and a nonresponsive state (had to close the task manually).

💥 Outcome Summary

Quite likely connected with the error below that I got in the extension host logs, possibly also with the "TextEditor is closed/disposed" spam.

I am investigating this issue. The task history truncation after cancelling a task appears to be related to the "Current ask promise was ignored" error in the resumeTaskFromHistory method. I will analyze the code and provide a fix.

I have submitted a fix for this issue in PR #5957: #5957

The fix addresses the "Current ask promise was ignored" error that occurred when cancelling a task with an active ask promise. The changes ensure that:

1. Ask promise state is properly cleared when a task is aborted
2. The ask() method checks for task abortion while waiting for responses
3. Task resumption starts with a clean ask promise state

All CI checks have passed successfully. The PR is ready for review.
