Adds the Agent block — a Deepnote block type that runs an LLM agent which writes and executes code in the notebook on your behalf.

What you get

Creating one

  • Deepnote: Add Agent Block, plus a 🤖 button first among the block buttons in the notebook toolbar.
  • A notebook may hold at most one agent block. A second request reports that and leaves the notebook untouched.
  • Unlike the other add*Block commands, this one mints the block id at creation. createBlockFromPocket hands an id-less block a fresh random id on every call, so without this each run would stamp its generated cells with a different owner — the stale-run guard would never match and scratch cells would pile up until the first save-and-reload.

Running one

  • Execution goes through executeAgentBlock from @deepnote/runtime-core.
  • Code and markdown the agent produces are inserted below it as ephemeral cells, tagged with agent_source_block_id.
  • The previous run's ephemeral cells are cleared before a re-run, so stale generated code never executes.
  • OpenAI key via Deepnote: Set OpenAI API Key / Clear OpenAI API Key, held in IEncryptedStorage.

Agent cell status bar

  • Agent Block indicator.
  • Model picker — auto (default), gpt-5.6-sol, gpt-5.6-terra, gpt-5.6-luna.
  • Clear ephemeral blocks — appears only when that block currently owns generated cells, and asks for confirmation before deleting.

Ephemeral cells

  • Carry an Ephemeral label whose tooltip names the source agent block.
  • Filtered out of serializeNotebook, so they never reach the .deepnote file (deepnoteSerializer.ts:234). The file-change watcher keeps them in the live editor when it reads back our own save.

Decisions worth a reviewer's attention

  • The clear button lives on the agent block, not on the ephemeral cell. The block owns what it generated, so it owns the button that removes it. Ownership is matched on getBlockId(agentCell) — the same derivation removeEphemeralCellsForAgentBlocks already used.
  • One agent block per notebook, enforced at the creation command only. A .deepnote file that already contains two still opens fine.
  • Block id minted up front for agent blocks only; the other add*Block commands are unchanged.
  • Ephemeral cells never persist to the main file. An orphan left behind in the editor disappears on reload.

Testing

  • Unit tests alongside each source file; full suite green.
  • End-to-end coverage in test/e2e/suite/agentBlock.e2e.test.ts — drives a real agent run against a stand-in OpenAI server (test/e2e/helpers/mockOpenAiServer.ts), then asserts the run, the re-run that drops stale cells, and the clear button. CI pre-downloads the mock server since it is npx-only.

Known gaps

  • An ephemeral cell with no agent_source_block_id (hand-authored file) has no clear button anywhere — nothing claims it. It is stripped from the file on save regardless.
  • Duplicating an agent cell would copy its block id, so both copies would claim the same generated cells. Pre-existing shape; not verified against VS Code's paste behaviour.
  • main's new execute_notebook telemetry infers "Run All" from cells.length === codeCellCount. This branch inserts and strips ephemeral code cells around agent runs, so that count may shift during an agent Run All. Worst case is a miscounted analytics event.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added Deepnote agent blocks with toolbar controls, model selection, and secure OpenAI API key management.
    • Agent runs can stream responses and create executable code or markdown cells.
    • Added indicators and cleanup controls for generated ephemeral cells.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved cancellation, timeout, error handling, output preservation, and queued execution.
    • Generated cells are excluded from persistence and synchronization.
    • Improved untrusted workspace behavior and execution-state tracking.
  • Tests

    • Added comprehensive unit and end-to-end coverage for agent workflows.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds Deepnote agent blocks with encrypted OpenAI key storage, model selection, streamed execution, generated ephemeral cells, and status-bar controls. Agent cells execute separately from kernel cells. Ephemeral cells are excluded from persistence and file synchronization. The change adds execution-state notifications, telemetry updates, unit tests, and end-to-end mock OpenAI coverage.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to c83c0

This PR adds agent-driven notebook execution with ephemeral generated cells and snapshot persistence. A retired run may still schedule a deferred save after a newer run, potentially persisting stale notebook state, while end-to-end validation can read the wrong snapshot or pass without observing the notebook; merge readiness is moderate until these issues are fixed or explicitly accepted.

In `@src/notebooks/deepnote/agentCellExecutionHandler.ts`:
- Around line 110-113: The code directly reads OPENAI_API_KEY from process.env
in agentCellExecutionHandler.ts (openAiToken = process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY) which
is unsafe for production; replace this direct env access with a secure secret
retrieval call (e.g., a new getOpenAiApiKey() that fetches from your secret
manager/credentials vault or from an injected secure config) and update callers
to inject the key instead of relying on process.env; ensure the secret is never
logged or included in error messages and keep the existing null-check/throw
behavior but reference the secure getter (getOpenAiApiKey) or injected parameter
in place of process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY.
- Around line 274-278: The success check in the return object of
agentCellExecutionHandler is too permissive—replace the current expression
`cell.executionSummary?.success !== false` with an explicit true check like
`cell.executionSummary?.success === true` (so only an explicit success is
reported; undefined/in-progress will not be treated as success); update the
return here (where `success`, `outputs:
cell.outputs.map(translateCellDisplayOutput)`, and `executionCount:
cell.executionSummary?.executionOrder ?? null` are constructed) to use that
strict equality.

In `@src/notebooks/deepnote/agentCellStatusBarProvider.ts`:
- Around line 69-71: The dispose() method currently uses an expression-bodied
arrow in this.disposables.forEach((d) => d.dispose()) which triggers the Biome
callback-return lint; change the callback to a block body or replace the forEach
with a for...of loop so the disposables are disposed without returning a
value—e.g., update dispose() to iterate over the disposables array and call
dispose() inside a statement block (reference: dispose method and disposables
property).
- Around line 142-149: getMaxIterations currently only enforces a lower bound;
add an upper-bound check so the returned value is an integer between
MIN_ITERATIONS and MAX_ITERATIONS (e.g., require value <= MAX_ITERATIONS). In
setMaxIterations replace permissive parseInt usage with strict integer
validation (use a full-match regex like /^\d+$/) and then parse with Number() so
inputs like "5.5" or "10abc" are rejected; after parsing ensure the numeric
value is an integer and within MIN_ITERATIONS..MAX_ITERATIONS before accepting
or falling back to DEFAULT_MAX_ITERATIONS. Update both occurrences in
setMaxIterations that currently call parseInt to use this strict validation and
range check, and reference the getMaxIterations and setMaxIterations functions
when making the change.

In `@src/notebooks/deepnote/converters/agentBlockConverter.unit.test.ts`:
- Around line 1-5: Reorder the imports so third-party modules are grouped
together and local imports come after: move the dedent import to be alongside
the other external imports (DeepnoteBlock, chai's assert, and vscode's
NotebookCellData/NotebookCellKind) and place the local AgentBlockConverter
import ('./agentBlockConverter') after that group; ensure the symbols
DeepnoteBlock, assert, NotebookCellData, NotebookCellKind, and dedent remain
imported and only the order changes to comply with the "third-party then local"
guideline.

…ss helper

- Introduced `createMockChildProcess` in `deepnoteTestHelpers.ts` for consistent mock process creation in tests.
- Updated `DeepnoteLspClientManager` and `DeepnoteServerStarter` to include the mock process in server info.
- Removed unnecessary `runtimeCoreServerInfo` from `ProjectContext` and adjusted related logic to use the new `serverInfo` structure.
- Ensured all relevant tests are updated to reflect these changes, improving test reliability and maintainability.
- Added a warning log when no project context is found, preventing server stop attempts.
- Updated the `stopServerForEnvironment` method to require a non-null project context, ensuring safer operation handling.
- Updated the DeepnoteServerStarter class to consistently use fileKey for managing pending operations and project contexts, improving clarity and reducing potential errors.
- Adjusted logging messages to reflect the change, ensuring accurate information is logged during server operations.
- Eliminated the port allocation serialization logic from the DeepnoteServerStarter class, as it is now handled by the @deepnote/runtime-core's startServer method.
- Updated related logging messages to reflect the changes in server startup processes.
- Adjusted unit tests to focus on SQL environment variable gathering and lifecycle orchestration, removing tests related to port reservation.
…g improvements

- Introduced a new `serverOutputByFile` map to track stdout and stderr outputs for each server instance, limiting the output length to improve performance and manageability.
- Updated error handling in the server startup process to capture and report both stdout and stderr in case of failures, providing better diagnostics.
- Adjusted the `dispose` method to ensure all internal states, including the new output tracking, are cleared appropriately.
- Enhanced unit tests to validate the new output tracking functionality and ensure proper handling of cancellation errors.
- Modified the error reporting logic to ensure that stderr output is captured only when available, enhancing clarity in error messages.
- This change aims to streamline the error handling process during server startup, providing more accurate feedback in case of failures.
- Introduced `getOpenAiApiKey` function to retrieve the OpenAI API key from configuration, improving error handling when the key is not set.
- Updated `executeAgentCell` and `executeEphemeralCell` functions to utilize the new API key retrieval method and handle cancellation tokens.
- Enhanced `AgentCellStatusBarProvider` to validate max iterations using Zod schema, ensuring robust input handling and defaulting to safe values.
- Added unit tests for new functionality and edge cases in both execution handling and status bar provider.

In `@src/notebooks/deepnote/agentCellExecutionHandler.ts`:
- Around line 142-147: The onLog callback in agentCellExecutionHandler.ts
contains commented-out accumulation code and a TODO; either remove the dead code
or implement it: add an accumulated string variable in the enclosing scope, make
onLog async (or forward logs to an async helper), append incoming message to
accumulated, then call
execution.replaceOutputItems(NotebookCellOutputItem.text(accumulated), output)
to update the cell output; if you choose to drop it, delete the commented lines
and the TODO and keep only logger.info('Agent log', message). Reference: onLog
callback, accumulated variable, execution.replaceOutputItems,
NotebookCellOutputItem.text, and output.
- Around line 41-64: serializeNotebookContext instantiates a new
DeepnoteDataConverter on every call which is wasteful if called frequently;
modify serializeNotebookContext to use a shared or injected converter instance
instead of creating one per invocation (e.g., accept a DeepnoteDataConverter
parameter or read from a module-scoped singleton), and update callers to pass or
rely on the shared converter so convertCellToBlock usage inside
serializeNotebookContext reuses the same converter.

In `@src/notebooks/deepnote/agentCellExecutionHandler.unit.test.ts`:
- Around line 310-324: The test creates a CancellationTokenSource named
tokenSource and cancels it but never disposes it; update the test for 'returns
success false immediately when token is pre-cancelled' to ensure
tokenSource.dispose() is called after use (e.g., in a finally block or via
afterEach cleanup) so the CancellationTokenSource is properly disposed; locate
the tokenSource variable in this test and add the dispose call around
executeEphemeralCell(tokenSource.token) to clean up resources.

In `@src/notebooks/deepnote/agentCellStatusBarProvider.ts`:
- Line 27: MaxIterationsSchema currently only enforces a minimum via
MIN_ITERATIONS so values >100 slip through; update MaxIterationsSchema to also
enforce an upper bound (e.g., .max(100)) or reference a new constant like
MAX_ITERATIONS = 100 if you prefer a named limit, ensuring you use
z.coerce.number().int().min(MIN_ITERATIONS).max(MAX_ITERATIONS) (or .max(100))
to validate both ends; modify the schema definition where MaxIterationsSchema is
declared and add the MAX_ITERATIONS constant if not already present.

In `@src/notebooks/deepnote/ephemeralCellDecorationProvider.ts`:
- Around line 69-71: The dispose method on EphemeralCellDecorationProvider
currently iterates disposables with this.disposables.forEach((d) =>
d.dispose());—replace the forEach with a for...of loop to align with the pattern
used in AgentCellStatusBarProvider and to ensure proper synchronous disposal and
error handling: iterate over this.disposables using for (const d of
this.disposables) and call d.dispose() inside the loop (referencing the dispose
method and the disposables array to locate the change).

Reuse MaxIterationsSchema for consistent validation.

parseInt is lenient: "5.5" becomes 5, "10abc" becomes 10. The existing Zod schema handles this properly and is already used in getMaxIterations.

- Around line 240-245: The code currently assumes workspace.applyEdit(edit)
succeeded and returns insertIndex blindly; change it to check the boolean result
of await workspace.applyEdit(edit) and verify the notebook now contains the
inserted cell (e.g. notebook.cellCount > insertIndex or try
notebook.cellAt(insertIndex) exists). If applyEdit returns false or the
verification fails, throw an Error (or return a sentinel/failure value as per
project convention) instead of returning insertIndex so callers won't operate on
an invalid index; use the same local symbols edit, insertIndex, notebook,
WorkspaceEdit, NotebookEdit.insertCells and workspace.applyEdit to locate and
implement the checks.
- Around line 136-138: The handler onAgentEvent currently logs the full
serialized AgentStreamEvent (logger.info('Agent event', JSON.stringify(event)))
which can leak user/tool content and bloat logs; change this to log only minimal
metadata such as event.type, any safe IDs or timestamps, and the transition
detected using lastAgentEventType (e.g., logger.info('Agent event', { type:
event.type, prevType: lastAgentEventType, timestamp: ... })) and remove
JSON.stringify(event) so no full payload is written to logs.
- Around line 264-283: The code rejects completionDeferred when
token.isCancellationRequested but still proceeds to run
commands.executeCommand('notebook.cell.execute'), allowing work after
cancellation; update the handler (around token, completionDeferred,
CancellationError and before commands.executeCommand) to short-circuit: if token
&& token.isCancellationRequested (or if completionDeferred has already been
rejected/settled) then clear the timeout, dispose any disposables, and
return/throw so commands.executeCommand is not invoked; ensure the same
early-exit path is taken when token.onCancellationRequested fires so cancelled
executions never call notebook.cell.execute.

In `@src/notebooks/deepnote/agentCellExecutionHandler.unit.test.ts`:
- Around line 366-384: The test for executeEphemeralCell should also assert that
no execution request was sent when the token is pre-cancelled: after calling
executeEphemeralCell with the pre-cancelled CancellationTokenSource, add an
assertion that notebook.cell.execute was never invoked (i.e., verify/expect the
mocked notebook cell execution method did not get called), and keep the existing
assertion on the returned result; refer to executeEphemeralCell,
mockedVSCodeNamespaces.commands.executeCommand and the notebook.cell.execute
mock when adding this check.

In `@src/notebooks/deepnote/ephemeralCellDecorationProvider.ts`:
- Around line 117-123: The current loop in ephemeralCellDecorationProvider
builds a Range per line (lineRanges) and calls
editor.setDecorations(this.ephemeralDecorationType, lineRanges), which is
wasteful; replace it by creating a single full-cell Range spanning from the
start of the first line to the end of the last line (use
editor.document.lineAt(0).range.start and
editor.document.lineAt(editor.document.lineCount - 1).range.end) and pass an
array with that single Range to
editor.setDecorations(this.ephemeralDecorationType, [fullRange]) so you avoid
allocating per-line Range objects while preserving the same decoration coverage.

steps..." and lost the whole transcript -- 82% of it in the case that
prompted this.

Ordinary Jupyter cells whose stdout arrives in several chunks were
truncated the same way; this is not agent-specific.

Note the agent's context serializer runs the same converter, so a later
run now sees an earlier agent cell's full output. That is correct, and it
grows the prompt in a way the truncation was hiding.

recoverBlockIdsFromOriginal matched on trimmed content alone -- not type,
not cell kind -- and rewrote the id, sortingKey and blockGroup of any
block whose id was absent from the stored project. Deleting an empty
block and adding an empty agent block in the same save handed the agent
the deleted block's identity.

That matters now because addAgentBlock mints its id up front so each run
can stamp its generated cells with a stable owner; the recovery silently
voided it on the first save, leaving the main file and the snapshot
disagreeing about which block the outputs belong to.

Recovery still runs for cells VS Code stripped metadata from, which is
what it was added for -- those have no id, so they stay candidates.
Adding type to the match key would not work: a metadata-stripped SQL
block arrives as 'code' and would stop matching its own original.

contentActuallyChanged compared cell count, kind, languageId and source.
An external edit that changed only deepnote_agent_model or a block id was
read as "no change", the reload was skipped, and the next save wrote the
stale in-memory value back over the file -- silently reverting the edit.
Editing a .deepnote on disk while it is open is the case this watcher
exists for.

Comparing raw cell metadata would be worse than the bug: the save path
rewrites contentHash and normalizes sortingKey every time, so every user
save would reload, and reloading replaces all cells and destroys agent
scratch cells.

So compare what the file actually carries -- run both sides through
convertCellToBlock, the same conversion the serializer saves through, and
compare the resulting block. Anything the write path derives, normalizes
or strips is excluded because it never reaches block.metadata, so there
is no field list here to drift out of sync.

Three faults in the same execution frame, all from splitting a Run All
around agent cells and letting each generated cell re-enter it.

Run All no longer continues past a failure. Before the split this
function was one body where a failing segment's `return` ended the whole
run; splitting it demoted those returns to ending one segment, so failing
Python -> agent -> Python ran everything. They rethrow again, which is
the pre-existing control flow rather than new bookkeeping. Cancellation
needs more, because a cancelled execution resolves rather than rejects:
the queue already latches that verdict, so expose it as
INotebookKernelExecution.failed instead of tracking it again.

Queue completion is now per gesture, not per queue. An agent run opens a
fresh CellExecutionQueue per generated cell, each announcing completion,
so SnapshotService saved and cleared execution state during ordinary LLM
pauses. The controller owns the batch, so it announces completion once,
when its re-entrancy depth unwinds to zero.

Retiring a run's metadata moved off the save. Clearing it in
performSnapshotSave's finally meant the save that follows a run -- and
any file save after it -- serialized nothing, and it wiped the captured
environment, so an agent run re-ran pip freeze per generated cell. It is
now dropped when the next run starts, signalled by the same frame that
announces completion so a run that opens no kernel queue still retires
the previous one.

Stopping an agent run does something. interruptHandler leaves
NotebookCellExecution.token inert, so the agent never saw a stop: the
kernel interrupt ended its in-flight cell, which the model read as a
failure worth retrying, and a cell cancelled before it started left the
agent waiting out a five minute timeout. The controller now owns a
cancellation source per notebook, cancelled before the kernel interrupt
so the agent sees the stop first. The model call itself still runs to the
end of its turn -- that needs the AbortSignal support sitting unreleased
in runtime-core, and executeAgentCell documents where it plugs in.

716-732: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Do not arm a save after a newer run retires this session.

onExecutionComplete() waits at Line 723. A subsequent queue start can clear this session during that wait. The old callback then still arms a deferred save at Line 732.

For an agent-only run, no cell execution event cancels that obsolete timer. The timer can save an intermediate notebook with cleared execution metadata.

Return after the wait if endedExecutionSessions no longer contains notebookUri. Add a regression test that starts a new queue before the previous completion callback resumes.

         await this.waitForPendingCellStateChanges(notebookUri, 100);

executeAgentCell reports a stop by ending its cell and returning, not by
throwing, so a run interrupted during the agent cell reached the loop
looking like one that finished and the cells after it still executed.

The batch already aborts when a kernel segment is interrupted; this is
the one branch that did not, because it was the one that does not throw.

Reported by CodeRabbit on #358.

- Added logging for error handling in the notebook controller's interrupt handler to ensure proper error reporting when interrupting notebook execution.
- Updated comments in the agent cell execution handler for clarity on tool failure handling.
- Corrected content hash and spelling in deepnote file change watcher tests to maintain consistency and accuracy.

These changes improve the robustness of the tests and clarify the code's intent.

Marking @deepnote/runtime-core external for the web target left a bare
top-level import in extension.web.bundle.js: agentCellExecutionHandler
imports it statically, and the web-registered VSCodeNotebookController
pulls that handler in through controllerRegistration. runtime-core needs
Node built-ins (net, child_process) and .vscodeignore excludes
node_modules from the VSIX, so the specifier can never resolve at
runtime -- and dropping the external turns it into a build failure
(tcp-port-used and @ai-sdk/mcp reach for net/child_process), which is
what the external was actually silencing rather than fixing.

Alias it to a stub instead, the same way @nteract/presentational-components
is already aliased in this file. Agent blocks are desktop-only; the web
build now throws a clear error if either export is ever called instead
of shipping an unresolvable import.

executeAgentCell called controller.createNotebookCellExecution directly
and never touched the internal execution-state shim that SnapshotService
and execute_cell analytics actually listen to -- start()/end() on a raw
NotebookCellExecution fires no event either one sees. The agent cell
still counts toward totalCodeCells since it's Code-kind, so a Run All
containing an agent block could never make executedBlockCount equal
totalCodeCells and always fell back to updating the latest snapshot
only, silently losing timestamped history for every run of the PR's
headline feature. The agent block also never got execution timing on
save, and never showed up in execute_cell analytics.

Route start/end through notebookCellExecutions.changeCellState so the
run is visible on the same shim every kernel execution reports to.

notifyQueueComplete now has a single production caller, the controller's
executeQueuedCells, after the per-queue notification moved out of
CellExecutionQueue to stop an agent batch's own per-segment queues from
retiring the run mid-batch. NotebookKernelExecution.resumeCellExecution
opens a queue through the same path but never goes through the
controller's batch, so SnapshotService starts tracking a resumed
execution and never sees it finish -- its counters and startedAt survive
into whatever runs next on that document.

restoreConnection is reachable only for Jupyter/interactive documents (a
.deepnote file cannot take that path), so this doesn't affect Deepnote
snapshots today, but a resumed queue should still announce its own
completion.

Some new comments after testing again:

  • The agent block is added after the selected block, it should always be added to the end of the notebook to match Deepnote Cloud
  • At the moment it's impossible to visually distinguish ephemeral blocks (the ones generated by the Agent block) and persistent blocks
  • Deleting the agent block leaves ephemeral blocks behind
  • Minor: when rerunning the agent block, the height of the reasoning / tool calling section is not reset (see screenshot)
Image

The agent block E2E last changed four days before the review, so none of
the fixes it prompted had integration coverage: a mixed Run All that must
stop, a Stop that must reach the agent, and a transcript that must survive
the save.

Four tests, in two groups that each bind the notebook they run:

- a failing cell before the agent ends the batch, so neither the agent nor
  the trailing cell runs. The failure comes from the fixture rather than
  the agent, which is the reported repro; the mock is still scripted so a
  batch that carried on has markers to render, and those are asserted
  absent.
- Interrupt during the agent run stops it and the cell after it. The
  generated cell prints and then sleeps, giving a bounded window in which
  the notebook is demonstrably running. It clicks "Interrupt"
  (notebook.interruptExecution) specifically -- VS Code shows that only
  while notebookInterruptibleKernel is set, and it is the one toolbar
  action reaching the controller's interruptHandler. "Stop Execution"
  cancels the cells without telling the agent, so it is not a fallback.
- a generated cell that raises comes back to the agent as "Execution
  failed:" and the run carries on. The mock runs --strict and the second
  leg matches on that prefix, so a swallowed failure leaves the request
  unmatched and the later markers never render.
- the streamed transcript is read back out of the snapshot sidecar, where
  it lands once outputs are stripped from the main file. Asserted through
  the parsed block, not the raw YAML: serializeDeepnoteFile folds at 120
  columns, and a fold inside a marker makes a raw substring match fail on
  transcript length alone.

The two groups share one workspace and one environment -- a second one
costs about 90s of CI and every test wants the same kernel -- but nothing
else. Reopening the notebook drops the block's generated cells, so that
happens once per group rather than between tests, and the pre-existing
serial pair keeps working.

Written and typechecked; not yet run against a workbench.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

assertMarkersStayAbsent passes when the webview cannot be read.

readNotebookWebviewText returns '' for a missing, top-level, or unreadable frame. Every poll then finds no forbidden marker, and the assertion succeeds without observing anything. The two guard tests (agentBlock.e2e.test.ts lines 571-575 and 632-636) are the ones that need this guarantee most.

Anchor the window on a marker that must be present, the same way awaitWebviewMarkers is used at lines 391-396.

The batch and stop notebooks also run in this workspace, so snapshots can hold more than one _latest.snapshot.deepnote file. files[0] is then whichever name sorts first from readdirSync. blockStreamOutputText throws No block "e2e-agent-block" in the serialized project. for that file, and the poll aborts instead of retrying.

The suite states the groups are order-independent (lines 4-8 and 528-529). Under --grep, a retry, or a reordering, this test can fail for the wrong reason.

Select the snapshot that carries AGENT_BLOCK_ID, and keep a read failure from ending the poll.

As per coding guidelines: "Use per-iteration error handling in loops - wrap each iteration in try/catch so one failure doesn't stop the rest".

Both mixed-batch tests failed on the first CI run, ~5s into openOnly, with
"TimeoutError: Waiting until element is visible" -- nowhere near what they
assert. The cause is one line earlier in the log: closing the editor raised
the save prompt for a notebook an agent run had dirtied, the intercepted
click was swallowed by the surrounding catch, and the modal then dimmed the
workbench so every later click landed on the overlay.

Revert before closing so the prompt does not appear, and answer it if it
does anyway. The check for surviving editors has to gate that answer:
confirmModalDialog waits out its full timeout before throwing when no
dialog is up, so calling it unconditionally would trade a 5s failure for a
60s one.

The suite's own `after` already pairs revert, close and discard this way;
this brings the mid-suite switch in line with it.

The E2E caught what the unit tests could not: pressing Stop mid-run left
the agent working and then reported the run as successful. The extension
log shows it plainly -- the interrupt lands at 09:53:58, and six seconds
later the run finishes down the success path with an empty result:

  09:53:55.712  Agent cell: starting executeAgentBlock
  09:53:58.255  [error] No kernel associated with the notebook (handleInterrupt)
  09:54:04.289  Agent cell: executeAgentBlock completed, finalOutput length=0

The cancellation did fire; it just could not end the run. Throwing from a
tool callback never could, because runtime-core wraps those callbacks:

  } catch (error) {
      ...
      return `Execution error: ${executionError.message}`;
  }

The throw becomes a string the model reads as a retryable tool failure, so
a stop made the agent do more work, and the loop only wound down once it
ran out of turns -- landing on executeAgentCell's success branch, which
called endExecution(true) for a run the user had stopped.

0.5.0 adds the AbortSignal the previous comment was waiting on. It calls
signal.throwIfAborted() inside runtime-core, outside that catch, and
forwards the signal to agent.stream as abortSignal, so the in-flight
request is aborted rather than left to finish. Bridging the cancellation
token to it is the whole fix; isStopped already recognised AbortError.

Verified against the built extension, not mocks: the agent now reports
"Agent cell execution stopped" 4ms after the interrupt, and the full agent
E2E suite passes locally, 7/7.

Note runtime-core 0.5.0 pins @deepnote/blocks 4.7.0, so the lock now
carries a nested copy alongside the root ^4.6.0.
