TBLite drops the in‑progress transcript when it kills a timing‑out task. The events below were captured turn‑by‑turn by the agent‑loop patch and pieced back together — full content, reasoning, and tool calls are all real; they just came from a different stream than the other tasks.

Ah! The issue is that `line.split()` without any arguments splits on whitespace and the path contains `/` which is being treated as a delimiter. I need to fix the parsing to handle paths with `/` correctly:

I see the issue - the path is being parsed as "GET" instead of "/api/users". The problem is that the method is being taken as the first part. Let me re-examine the input format.

Let me re-read the specification more carefully. The format says `path method role permission`, but looking at the example input, it seems like the actual format might be `method path role permission`. Let me check the specification again:

{"bytes_written": 148, "dirs_created": true}
turn 15 · assistant 40.5s api
Let me look at the actual input format specification more carefully. Looking at the example input I created: `GET /api/users admin ALLOW`, and the spec says the format is `path method role permission`, this suggests that the path should be first, then method, then role, then permission. But that would mean `GET` is the path and `/api/users` is the method, which doesn't make sense.

Let me re-read the specification. Actually, looking at the PLAN section format, it says `<path method>`, which clearly shows path first, then method. So the ENDPOINTS format should be `path method role permission`. But that would mean my example input `GET /api/users admin ALLOW` is incorrect.

Let me create a correct example:
→ write_file({"path": "/app/input.txt", "content": "/api/users GET admin ALLOW\n/api/users POST admin ALLOW\n/api/users/{user_id} GET admin ALLOW\n\nbase /api\nexclude guest\n\n/api/users GET\n/api/users POST"})
