Remove globalState write-through src/core/webview/ClineProvider.ts, src/core/webview/__tests__/ClineProvider.taskHistory.spec.ts |
Removed write-through lifecycle code and verified that TaskHistoryStore has no onWrite callback. |
Centralize history lookup src/core/webview/ClineProvider.ts, src/core/webview/__tests__/ClineProvider.spec.ts |
Added a shared lookup helper and prevented deleted file-backed tasks from being restored from legacy taskHistory. |
Update file-backed history tests src/core/webview/__tests__/ClineProvider.sticky-mode.spec.ts, src/eslint-suppressions.json |
Updated sticky-mode tests to use the file-backed store and reduced the related ESLint suppression count. |

ClineProvider.getTaskWithId and the mode/API-config update handlers so
globalState.taskHistory is consulted only while file-backed storage has not been

misses as missing tasks after delete(). Add a behavior-focused test that seeds
legacy history, deletes the file-backed task, and verifies subsequent lookup

Cover the cold-start legacy-history fallback.
taskHistoryStoreInitialized starts as false, so getTaskHistoryItem can read getGlobalState("taskHistory") before store initialization. The existing missing-file test covers the warm fallback with a legacy item. It does not cover the cold-start case where "taskHistory" is absent. Add a test that keeps the store uninitialized, returns undefined for that key, and asserts that getTaskWithId rejects with "Task not found". The repository convention requires both cold-start and warm fallback cases.

Nice! Thanks you for addressing this, had one question if we could also address existing extension state.

Stops new writes, but the old "taskHistory" blob is still sitting in globalState from before migration. VS Code fires the large-state warning whenever it reads or writes the total extension state, so the warning will keep appearing even after this PR lands. Should initializeTaskHistoryStore (or the migration block in it) also call this.context.globalState.update("taskHistory", undefined) after marking the migration complete?
Summary
globalStateupdatesTaskHistoryStorepersistence and legacy migration/fallback reads unchangedWhy
Each task mutation could schedule serialization of the entire task history into VS Code
globalState. Large orchestrator sessions repeatedly copied multi-megabyte histories across the extension-host storage boundary, causing freezes and OOM pressure even though per-task files are already authoritative.Validation
