feat(coder/modules/agentapi): add state persistence support (#736)
AgentAPI can now save and restore conversation state across workspace
restarts. The module exports env vars (AGENTAPI_STATE_FILE,
AGENTAPI_SAVE_STATE, AGENTAPI_LOAD_STATE, AGENTAPI_PID_FILE) that the
binary reads directly. No consumer module changes needed.

New variables: enable_state_persistence (default false),
state_file_path, pid_file_path. State and PID files default to
$HOME/<module_dir_name>/.

Requires agentapi >= v0.12.0. A shared version_at_least function in
lib.sh gates the env var exports and SIGUSR1 in the shutdown script.
Old binaries get a warning and graceful skip.

Shutdown script now does SIGUSR1 (state save), log snapshot capture
(existing, now fault-tolerant via subshell), then SIGTERM with wait.

AgentAPI

Caution

We do not recommend using this module directly. Instead, please consider using one of our Tasks-compatible AI agent modules.

The AgentAPI module is a building block for modules that need to run an AgentAPI server. It is intended primarily for internal use by Coder to create modules compatible with Tasks.

module "agentapi" {
  source  = "registry.coder.com/coder/agentapi/coder"
  version = "2.2.0"

  agent_id             = var.agent_id
  web_app_slug         = local.app_slug
  web_app_order        = var.order
  web_app_group        = var.group
  web_app_icon         = var.icon
  web_app_display_name = "Goose"
  cli_app_slug         = "goose-cli"
  cli_app_display_name = "Goose CLI"
  module_dir_name      = local.module_dir_name
  install_agentapi     = var.install_agentapi
  pre_install_script   = var.pre_install_script
  post_install_script  = var.post_install_script
  start_script         = local.start_script
  install_script       = <<-EOT
    #!/bin/bash
    set -o errexit
    set -o pipefail

    echo -n '${base64encode(local.install_script)}' | base64 -d > /tmp/install.sh
    chmod +x /tmp/install.sh

    ARG_PROVIDER='${var.goose_provider}' \
    ARG_MODEL='${var.goose_model}' \
    ARG_GOOSE_CONFIG="$(echo -n '${base64encode(local.combined_extensions)}' | base64 -d)" \
    ARG_INSTALL='${var.install_goose}' \
    ARG_GOOSE_VERSION='${var.goose_version}' \
    /tmp/install.sh
  EOT
}

Task log snapshot

Captures the last 10 messages from AgentAPI when a task workspace stops. This allows viewing conversation history while the task is paused.

To enable for task workspaces:

module "agentapi" {
  # ... other config
  task_log_snapshot = true # default: true
}

State Persistence

AgentAPI can save and restore conversation state across workspace restarts. This is disabled by default and requires agentapi binary >= v0.12.0.

State and PID files are stored in $HOME/<module_dir_name>/ alongside other module files (e.g. $HOME/.claude-module/agentapi-state.json).

To enable:

module "agentapi" {
  # ... other config
  enable_state_persistence = true
}

To override file paths:

module "agentapi" {
  # ... other config
  state_file_path = "/custom/path/state.json"
  pid_file_path   = "/custom/path/agentapi.pid"
}
