Class: PendingQuestionError

Thrown when a new message is sent to an agent whose last run PAUSED to ask a person something, and that question has not been answered.

The pause is not a failure and not a stale flag — it is unfinished work with a person on the other end. Answer it with resume(checkpoint, decision), or say plainly that it is being dropped with abandonPause(); both are visible in the record, and silently starting a fresh run was not.

stackTraceLimit

static stackTraceLimit: number

Defined in: node_modules/@types/node/globals.d.ts:67

The Error.stackTraceLimit property specifies the number of stack frames collected by a stack trace (whether generated by new Error().stack or Error.captureStackTrace(obj)).

The default value is 10 but may be set to any valid JavaScript number. Changes will affect any stack trace captured after the value has been changed.

If set to a non-number value, or set to a negative number, stack traces will not capture any frames.

toolCallId?

readonly optional toolCallId?: string

Defined in: src/core/conversation.ts:96

The id of the tool call that asked, for joining back to the trace.

toolName?

readonly optional toolName?: string

Defined in: src/core/conversation.ts:94

The tool that asked, when the pause named one.

Methods

captureStackTrace()

static captureStackTrace(targetObject, constructorOpt?): void

Defined in: node_modules/@types/node/globals.d.ts:51

Creates a .stack property on targetObject, which when accessed returns a string representing the location in the code at which Error.captureStackTrace() was called.

const myObject = {};
Error.captureStackTrace(myObject);
myObject.stack;  // Similar to `new Error().stack`

The first line of the trace will be prefixed with ${myObject.name}: ${myObject.message}.

The optional constructorOpt argument accepts a function. If given, all frames above constructorOpt, including constructorOpt, will be omitted from the generated stack trace.

The constructorOpt argument is useful for hiding implementation details of error generation from the user. For instance:

function a() {
  b();
}

function b() {
  c();
}

function c() {
  // Create an error without stack trace to avoid calculating the stack trace twice.
  const { stackTraceLimit } = Error;
  Error.stackTraceLimit = 0;
  const error = new Error();
  Error.stackTraceLimit = stackTraceLimit;

  // Capture the stack trace above function b
  Error.captureStackTrace(error, b); // Neither function c, nor b is included in the stack trace
  throw error;
}

a();

static prepareStackTrace(err, stackTraces): any

Defined in: node_modules/@types/node/globals.d.ts:55
