There was a problem hiding this comment.
Changes look fine to me, thanks for catching this!
When an existing task has status 'active', the action previously skipped waitForTaskActive and immediately called sendTaskInput. But the task can be active while the agent is still processing a previous prompt (current_state.state === 'working'). This causes 409/502 errors from the server because the agent isn't ready to accept input. Remove the status guard so waitForTaskActive always runs for existing tasks. The function already handles the active+idle case correctly by returning immediately.

When an existing task was already
active, the action skippedwaitForTaskActiveand calledsendTaskInputimmediately. Butactive does not mean idle. If the agent is still processing a
previous prompt (
current_state.state === "working"), the sendfails with a 409/502 from the server.
Now
waitForTaskActiveruns unconditionally for existing tasks.It already handles the active+idle case correctly (returns
immediately), so this adds no delay when the agent is ready.
