Agent has started with

npm start

which always used to auto refresh.

would be curious what's inside the

start

script in

package.json

Is the refresh issue consistent? It's hard to tell but Robert may be right, some very basic setups don't include hot module reloading (HMR) which auto restart the FE server on changes For the Changes tab, that is a present issue I want to get fixed. It was done to solve another issue that came with the downside of always loading until agent finished

Yes consistent. It may be a new way OpenHands runs the app if ya'll changed something but before it always auto refreshed. Now even changing tabs doesn't work and needs a browser refresh

came with the downside of always loading until agent finished

We definitely need to fix this ASAP--we shouldn't have checked in that regression

Sorry, I should have made the consequence clearer 😓 There is an alternative I can push ASAP, but not 100% reliable

All good 🙂 but yeah we should be very clear when there's a regression being checked in Just so I'm clear--this is the issue where the changes tab is not showing changes until the agent is finished with its work, right?

Something like that. The issue is we use to use

invalidateQuery

that would trigger a refetch on file changes. That caused a serious issue where loading existing conversations would call that method on every file change, and trigger a new request as well, causing a huge burst of these calls and possibly self-DOSing The change was to use

removeQuery

instead, that clears all cache and does not request a refetch.

Got it. Does react query not have any debouncing when you invalidate?

No, but there is a

cancelRefetch

option where I'd pass the boolean value that determines whether we're receiving messages at a high rate (the same value that determines whether we display the messages or wait for them to finish loading)

better than not fetching 🙂
