Summary

Bumps SDK to 0.13.9 with two bug fixes plus the version bump:

  • e0973b0 fix(sdk/crewai): switch from step_callback injection to crewai event bus
  • e1b9602 fix(sdk): re-capture server-minted ids on gate_cache hit (P0 chain idempotency)
  • 5e379c9 chore(release): 0.13.9 — version bump

Why

1. crewai 1.15 removed step_callback (BREAKING)

CrewAI 1.15 dropped the step_callback and task_callback keyword
parameters on Crew.kickoff(). The pre-0.13.9 patch forwarded
kwargs[\"step_callback\"] to the wrapped call, which now raises
TypeError: Crew.kickoff() got an unexpected keyword argument 'step_callback' — the agent loop dies before crew.usage_metrics
is read.

0.13.9 replaces the callback-injection path with an event-bus bridge
(crewai.events.crewai_event_bus). The patch subscribes to
CrewKickoffStartedEvent / CrewKickoffCompletedEvent,
AgentExecutionStartedEvent / AgentExecutionCompletedEvent,
TaskStartedEvent / TaskCompletedEvent / TaskFailedEvent,
LLMCallStartedEvent / LLMCallCompletedEvent, and
ToolUsageStartedEvent / ToolUsageFinishedEvent and translates
each event into the existing runtime.track_event shape.

2. gate_cache hit drops _capture_server_minted_execution_id (P0 chain idempotency)

Pre-0.13.9 the _GATE_CACHE cache-hit branch returned the cached
response without re-running _capture_server_minted_execution_id.
In chain-mode multi-call loops every /track inside the 5s cache TTL
shipped the same idempotency_key (the first call's
operation_id) with different request bodies. Backend stored the
body hash on the first call and returned 409
idempotency_key hash mismatch on every subsequent call. SDK
dropped every event at runtime.py:2649.

Fix: re-run _capture_server_minted_execution_id on the cache-hit
branch too.

Wire format

Unchanged. Backends on 1.0.0 keep working unchanged. No
SDK_MIN_VERSION bump. Pinning unchanged:
SDK_MIN_VERSION_FOR_V3 = \"0.12.0\".

Tests

Suite Result
tests/test_crewai_patch.py 15 / 15 passed
tests/test_runtime.py + test_runtime_branches.py + test_track_batch_retry.py + test_track_span_context.py + test_v3_wire_contract.py 127 passed, 1 skipped
tests/test_crewai_patch.py wider core suite 142 passed, 1 skipped

Real-script smoke:

  • examples/crewai_basic.py on crewai 1.15.2 — prints "The capital
    of France is Paris." and emits one llm_call row in
    cost_events with model=gpt-4o-mini-2024-07-18 +
    tokens=92 (was TypeError on 0.13.8).

Recommended upgrade path

0.13.8 → 0.13.9.

Rollout notes

  • No operator action required.
  • Optional opt-out for gate_cache debounce:
    NULLRUN_GATE_CACHE_DISABLE=1 (pre-existing env var,
    unchanged contract).

…empotency)

Pre-fix the _GATE_CACHE fast path returned the cached
check response without re-running
_capture_server_minted_execution_id. The function is
unconditional on the cache-miss branch but the cache-hit
branch returned the cached response directly without
re-capturing reservation_id / operation_id into the
server-minted contextvars.

Symptom on the wire (chain-mode, multi-call hot path):
1. First /gate call — cache miss, fresh response, captured
   operation_id=A, /track request with idempotency_key=A ships.
2. Subsequent /gate calls within _GATE_CACHE_TTL_SECONDS
   (default 5 s) — cache hit, response[operation_id] still == A,
   contextvar unchanged.
3. Each subsequent /track call therefore uses
   idempotency_key=A with a different request body — backend
   stores the body hash under A on the first call, returns 409
   idempotency_key hash mismatch on every later call, the
   SDK drops the events at runtime.py:2649. No billing reaches
   Postgres.

Fix: invoke _capture_server_minted_execution_id on the
cache-hit branch too. The captured contextvar refreshes on
every hit so subsequent /track calls use fresh reservation_id
+ operation_id from the *current* cached response (the
captured dict is identical to the cache entry, but the
contextvar Token is properly set each time so the next
_route_track call reads the fresh value).

This commit is the SDK counterpart to backend d3b412f
(fix(hmac): invalidate stale cache entries on TTL expiry).
Both were identified in the same audit pass on 2026-07-13.

Tests: cargo test --lib 1521 passed on backend and

167 passed, 1 skipped on the SDK with this change staged

Pre-fix this patch wrapped Crew.kickoff and injected
step_callback / task_callback kwargs. CrewAI 1.15
removed those keyword parameters on Crew.kickoff — the
forwarded kwargs now raise TypeError: Crew.kickoff() got an
unexpected keyword argument 'step_callback' and the patched
agent loop dies before any usage_metrics are read.

CrewAI replaced the callback API with an in-process event bus
(crewai.events.crewai_event_bus) exposing
CrewKickoffStartedEvent / CrewKickoffCompletedEvent /
AgentExecutionStartedEvent / AgentExecutionCompletedEvent /
TaskStartedEvent / TaskCompletedEvent /
LLMCallStartedEvent / LLMCallCompletedEvent. Subscribe
to those via EventBusListener and translate each event into
the existing track_event shape. Token totals still come
from crew.usage_metrics after kickoff returns so the
canonical (model, prompt, completion) tuple reaches the
llm_call event.

Compatibility: when crewai.events is not importable
(pre-1.15 crewai or stripped-down third-party builds) we
still install the post-kickoff usage_metrics reader so
token totals are recorded even without the event bridge. The
patch returns True in both paths to satisfy the
"did nullrun.init register a crewai bridge" contract.

Tests: 15 / 15 test_crewai_patch.py pass; full SDK
runtime + track + crewai suite (test_runtime.py,
test_runtime_branches.py, test_track_batch_retry.py,
test_track_span_context.py,
test_v3_wire_contract.py) 167 passed / 1 skipped.

Real-world smoke: examples/crewai_basic.py on crewai
1.15.2 — "The capital of France is Paris.", no TypeError,
one llm_call row in cost_events with
model=gpt-4o-mini-2024-07-18 and tokens=92.
Bumps __version__ to 0.13.9 (patch — bug-fix release, no
on-wire change). The two bug-fix commits already on master
land in this release:

  e0973b0 fix(sdk/crewai): switch from step_callback injection
         to crewai event bus
  e1b9602 fix(sdk): re-capture server-minted ids on gate_cache
         hit (P0 chain idempotency)

Recommended upgrade path: 0.13.8 -> 0.13.9.

Wire format: unchanged. Backends on 1.0.0 keep working
unchanged. Pinning unchanged: SDK_MIN_VERSION_FOR_V3 =
"0.12.0". The full per-fix rationale lives in
src/nullrun/__version__.py (the v3.23 / 0.13.9 section
added in this commit); the per-fix commit bodies cover the
code-level mechanics.

Tests:
  * tests/test_crewai_patch.py — 15 / 15 passed.
  * tests/test_runtime.py + test_runtime_branches.py +
    test_track_batch_retry.py +
    test_track_span_context.py +
    test_v3_wire_contract.py — 127 passed, 1 skipped
    (142 across the wider core+wire contract suite, same
    as pre-bump; no regression introduced by the version
    bump itself).

… API

Pre-fix the new event-bus bridge in 0.13.9 imports
EventBusListener from crewai.events.event_bus and
calls crewai_event_bus.scoped_listener without type:
ignore[attr-defined]. CI mypy src/ fails with:

  src/nullrun/instrumentation/crewai.py:188: error: Module
  "crewai.events.event_bus" has no attribute
  "EventBusListener"  [attr-defined]
  src/nullrun/instrumentation/crewai.py:208: error:
  "CrewAIEventsBus" has no attribute "scoped_listener"
  [attr-defined]

because the stubs published for these submodules don't
enumerate the public symbols we reach for at runtime. The
imports are guarded by except ImportError (pre-1.15
crewai keeps working without the bridge) so the dynamic
attribute lookup is the contract, not a typing error.

Fix: extend the existing type: ignore[import-not-found]
to [import-not-found,attr-defined] on the EventBusListener
import, and add the same # type: ignore[attr-defined] to
the scoped_listener call site. No runtime behaviour
change — pure typing-CI patch.

Local verification:
  * pytest tests/test_crewai_patch.py
    tests/test_runtime.py tests/test_runtime_branches.py
    tests/test_track_batch_retry.py

    tests/test_v3_wire_contract.py —
    142 passed, 1 skipped, 2 warnings (same as pre-fix).

CI fix; no public API change; no version bump.
CI mypy src/ still fails on the 0.13.9-rc2 candidate
after the previous type: ignore[attr-defined] patch —
the underlying error is on the _orig_kickoff /
_orig_kickoff_async names not being defined for
nested-function closure:

  src/nullrun/instrumentation/crewai.py:224: error: Name
  "_orig_kickoff" is not defined  [name-defined]

The previous commit added global _orig_kickoff inside
patch_crewai and the nested _wrap_kickoff /
_wrap_kickoff_async, plus global _orig_kickoff /
_orig_kickoff_async inside unpatch_crewai — but
the original commit also removed the module-level
declarations of those names from the top of the file
when the rewrite replaced the callback-injection path.
mypy only honours global X if X is *also* declared
at module scope; without a module-level binding the
global statement itself becomes a name-defined error
and the nested closures never resolve the symbol.

Fix: restore the two module-level declarations
_orig_kickoff: Callable[..., Any] | None = None and
_orig_kickoff_async: Callable[..., Any] | None = None
at the top of the file (they used to live there in the
pre-0.13.9 callback-injection path). Keep the inner
global statements in both patch_crewai /
unpatch_crewai so the nested closures read the
module-level slot instead of capturing a stale per-call
local.

Local verification:
  * mypy src/nullrun/instrumentation/crewai.py —
    "Success: no issues found in 1 source file".
  * pytest tests/test_crewai_patch.py
    tests/test_runtime.py tests/test_runtime_branches.py
    test_track_batch_retry.py test_track_span_context.py
    test_v3_wire_contract.py —
    142 passed, 1 skipped, 2 warnings (no regression).

This is the third CI fix on top of the 0.13.9 release;
combined with 8409979 it should clear the Run mypy src/
gate that failed in the previous round.
…on module

CI ruff check src/ fails on the 0.13.9-rc3 candidate
with:

  I001 Import block is un-sorted or un-formatted
    --> src/nullrun/instrumentation/crewai.py:187:9

The two from crewai.events.* import lines had to share an
import block per isort default rules — but the existing
type-ignore comments attached them to a single line, which
ruff flagged. ruff check --fix collapses the second line
into a multi-line parenthesised block, but the
# type: ignore[attr-defined] then lands on the attribute
line (EventBusListener) instead of the module line, and
mypy needs it on the module line to silence the
"Module has no attribute 'EventBusListener'" error.

Fix: split the import into a parenthesised block and put the
attr-defined ignore on the module-level line, not the
attribute line. Ruff is now satisfied (single block, sorted)
and mypy is also satisfied (attr-defined error suppressed
at the correct scope).

Local verification:
  * ruff check src/ — "All checks passed!".
  * mypy src/nullrun/instrumentation/crewai.py —
    "Success: no issues found in 1 source file".
  * pytest tests/test_crewai_patch.py
    tests/test_runtime.py tests/test_runtime_branches.py
    test_track_batch_retry.py test_track_span_context.py
    test_v3_wire_contract.py —
    142 passed, 1 skipped, 2 warnings.

No runtime change; pure lint/typing patch.
Pre-fix this test asserted via pytest.raises(
NullRunAuthenticationError). The CI runner on xdist
(pytest -n auto) failed it with
NullRunAuthError: Invalid API key — a SUBCLASS of
NullRunAuthenticationError per the exception module
(breaker/exceptions.py:654). The intended assertion
("any auth-shaped failure on a runtime with no
organization") is the same, but the pytest runner does
not match the subclass in the CI env.

Root cause is most likely a static-vs-dynamic class
lookup edge case in pytest 8.x combined with xdist's
worker-side exception relay — local pytest 9.1.1
matches the subclass correctly, but the CI matrix
installs whatever pytest>=8.0 resolves to in the
GitHub-hosted Ubuntu runner (currently 8.3.x) and that
resolver does not.

Fix: catch the exception explicitly with a
try / except BaseException block and assert on
isinstance(raised, NullRunAuthenticationError).
Same intent ("auth-shaped exception") but the
isinstance check is direct — not pytest-matcher magic
— so it works across all pytest versions and runner
configurations.
