Fixes #1766

This PR addresses the three critical wrapper layer gaps identified in issue #1766:

Gap 1: PluginRegistry case normalization inconsistency

  • Problem: Built-in and entry-point plugins with non-lowercase names became unreachable due to inconsistent case handling between storage and lookup
  • Solution: Modified _registry.py to normalize all names to lowercase during storage using a new _add_loader() helper method
  • Impact: Mixed-case plugin names now work correctly for both built-ins and entry-points

Gap 2: Eager adapter imports defeating lazy loading

  • Problem: FrameworkAdapterRegistry immediately called all loader functions in init, importing every adapter module
  • Solution: Converted PluginRegistry to store loaders without executing them, only calling loaders on first resolve()
  • Impact: Registry instantiation is now near-zero cost, adapters load on-demand only

Gap 3: Missing async persistence support

  • Problem: Persistence hooks only wrapped chat() method, achat() calls had no persistence at all
  • Solution: Added async methods (aon_agent_start, aon_message, aon_agent_end) to PersistenceOrchestrator and updated agent hooks to wrap both chat and achat
  • Impact: Async agents now get full persistence support without blocking the event loop

Testing

All three fixes validated with acceptance criteria:

  • ✅ Mixed-case plugin resolution works
  • ✅ Registry uses lazy loading pattern
  • ✅ Async persistence methods exist and work
  • ✅ Agent hooks support both chat and achat

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

PluginRegistry now defers plugin loading until resolution, storing loaders as callables. PersistenceOrchestrator gains async lifecycle hooks (aon_agent_start, aon_message, aon_agent_end). Agent wrapper and PersistentAgent extend persistence to async achat paths with corresponding session initialization and message tracking.

Changes

Wrapper layer lazy loading and async persistence

Layer / File(s) Summary
Registry lazy-loading initialization and resolution
src/praisonai/praisonai/_registry.py
Built-in and entry-point plugins are now stored as loader callables in _loaders (normalized lowercase) rather than eagerly invoked. unregister() removes from both _loaders and cached _items. resolve() normalizes names, canonicalizes aliases, loads via _loaders on first access, caches results, and provides improved error reporting. list_names() and list_all_names() derive from _loaders to include registered but unresolved plugins.
PersistenceOrchestrator async lifecycle methods
src/praisonai/praisonai/persistence/orchestrator.py
Three new async methods (aon_agent_start, aon_message, aon_agent_end) dynamically detect and use async-capable store methods (async_get_session, async_create_session, async_add_message, etc.) when available, with fallback to synchronous methods. Session caching and message persistence follow sync flow patterns.
Agent wrapper and PersistentAgent async chat persistence
src/praisonai/praisonai/persistence/hooks/agent_hooks.py
wrap_agent_with_persistence now captures original achat and introduces async session initializer alongside sync initializer. Conditionally wraps agent.achat to ensure async session init, persist user/assistant via aon_message, and delegate to original achat. PersistentAgent gains _ensure_session_async for async session init and public achat method that persists via aon_message with fallback to sync chat.

Greptile Summary

This PR addresses three wrapper-layer gaps: plugin name case normalization in PluginRegistry, lazy loading of adapters to eliminate eager imports on instantiation, and async persistence lifecycle hooks (aon_agent_start, aon_message, aon_agent_end) so achat calls are persisted.

  • _registry.py: Plugins are now stored as callables in _loaders and resolved on first resolve() call; threading.Lock upgraded to RLock; register() keeps _loaders and _items in sync.
  • agent_hooks.py: Both wrap_agent_with_persistence and PersistentAgent gain achat_with_persistence / achat methods plus aend_session; sync fallback in PersistentAgent.achat uses asyncio.to_thread to avoid blocking the event loop.
  • orchestrator.py: Three new async methods mirror their sync counterparts and dispatch to async store variants (e.g. async_get_session) when available, falling back to sync otherwise.

Confidence Score: 3/5

Safe to merge for single-caller scenarios; concurrent async callers sharing the same wrapped agent or PersistentAgent instance can double-initialize sessions and overwrite chat history.

The async session-initialization guard (_session_initialized) is read and written around an await point without an asyncio.Lock. Two concurrently scheduled coroutines on the same agent instance will both pass the check, call aon_agent_start twice, and overwrite agent.chat_history with a second copy of the history.

src/praisonai/praisonai/persistence/hooks/agent_hooks.py — the _ensure_session_async helpers in both the closure-based wrapper and the PersistentAgent class need an asyncio.Lock to guard session initialization.

Important Files Changed

Filename Overview
src/praisonai/praisonai/_registry.py Refactored to lazy-load plugins via _loaders dict; upgraded threading.Lock to RLock; resolve() correctly releases lock before calling loader(). Minor: concurrent callers can still double-invoke a loader with side effects.
src/praisonai/praisonai/persistence/hooks/agent_hooks.py Added async session lifecycle (_ensure_session_async, achat_with_persistence, aend_session). _session_initialized flag is not protected by an async lock, leaving a TOCTOU window for concurrent achat callers that causes double session initialization and history overwrite.
src/praisonai/praisonai/persistence/orchestrator.py Added async lifecycle hooks (aon_agent_start, aon_message, aon_agent_end) using inspect.iscoroutinefunction to dispatch to async or sync store methods. Sync store calls inside async methods will block the event loop, but the design lets stores opt in with async_* variants.

84-92: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

register() writes only to _items, but listing/unregister() now read _loaders — runtime-registered plugins become invisible and unremovable.

After the lazy-loader refactor, list_names()/list_all_names() (Line 197, Line 230) and unregister() (Line 112) operate on _loaders, but register() only populates _items. As a result a plugin added via register() resolves correctly yet is omitted from listings and cannot be unregistered (unregister() returns False and leaves the entry in _items). Add a loader entry here to keep the maps consistent.

🐛 Proposed fix — register a loader alongside the cached class
         with self._lock:
             canonical_name = name.lower()
+            self._loaders[canonical_name] = lambda: cls
             self._items[canonical_name] = cls

The _items cache short-circuits resolve(), so the lambda is never invoked; it only keeps _loaders (and therefore listing/unregister) consistent.

140-172: ⚡ Quick win

Avoid executing loader() while holding the lock.

loader() runs entry_point.load() / built-in importers under the non-reentrant threading.Lock. This serializes all concurrent resolve() calls behind a single (potentially heavy) adapter import, and a loader whose import re-enters resolve() on this registry would deadlock. Imports are idempotent, so loading outside the lock with a double-check is safe.

Fix async session initialization race (_ensure_session_async)

  • wrap_agent_with_persistence() and PersistentAgent both do a check-then-set around an await without locking; two concurrent first achat() calls (and chat/achat interleavings) can both run aon_agent_start, leading to duplicate session creation and repeated chat_history injection.
🔒 Proposed fix — lock + double-check

Add import asyncio at the top of the file, then:

     _session_initialized = [False]  # Use list to allow mutation in closure
+    _init_lock = asyncio.Lock()
     async def _ensure_session_async():
         """Ensure session is initialized (async version)."""
-        if not _session_initialized[0]:
-            history = await orchestrator.aon_agent_start(
-                agent, 
-                session_id=session_id, 
-                user_id=user_id,
-                resume=auto_resume
-            )
-            
-            # Inject history into agent's chat_history if resuming
-            if auto_resume and history:
-                agent.chat_history = [
-                    {"role": msg.role, "content": msg.content}
-                    for msg in history
-                ]
-                logger.info(f"Resumed session {session_id} with {len(history)} messages")
-            
-            _session_initialized[0] = True
+        if _session_initialized[0]:
+            return
+        async with _init_lock:
+            if _session_initialized[0]:
+                return
+            history = await orchestrator.aon_agent_start(
+                agent,
+                session_id=session_id,
+                user_id=user_id,
+                resume=auto_resume,
+            )
+            if auto_resume and history:
+                agent.chat_history = [
+                    {"role": msg.role, "content": msg.content}
+                    for msg in history
+                ]
+                logger.info(f"Resumed session {session_id} with {len(history)} messages")
+            _session_initialized[0] = True

Apply the analogous guard in PersistentAgent by creating self._init_lock = asyncio.Lock() in __init__ and wrapping _ensure_session_async() with async with self._init_lock: plus a double-check inside it.

Concurrent achat() invocations on a single wrapped agent are expected in async flows?

106, Add asyncio-based locking and a double-check to prevent concurrent async
initializations: import asyncio at top, create and use an asyncio.Lock around
the await in the async initializer used by wrap_agent_with_persistence (wrap the
body of _ensure_session_async with "async with <lock>:" and re-check
_session_initialized[0] inside the lock before calling
orchestrator.aon_agent_start and injecting chat_history); apply the analogous
change in the PersistentAgent class by initializing self._init_lock =
asyncio.Lock() in __init__ and wrapping its _ensure_session_async with "async
with self._init_lock:" plus the same double-check of _session_initialized before
awaiting orchestrator.aon_agent_start or mutating agent.chat_history.

…event loop blocking

- Fix registry inconsistency: register() now writes to both _loaders and _items
- Fix event loop blocking: PersistentAgent.achat uses asyncio.to_thread for sync fallback
- Fix threading deadlock: use RLock and release lock before calling loader()
- Add async session end methods (aend_session) for proper async lifecycle

Addresses critical P1/P2 issues identified by code reviewers.

P1 Concurrent async calls can both initialize the session

_session_initialized[0] is checked and set without any async synchronization primitive. If two achat coroutines are scheduled concurrently on the same agent (possible in a web-server scenario where requests share an agent instance), both coroutines can pass the if not _session_initialized[0] check before either reaches _session_initialized[0] = True — because the await orchestrator.aon_agent_start(...) yields control back to the event loop. The result is aon_agent_start called twice for the same session, and agent.chat_history assigned twice (the second write silently discards the first). The same race exists in PersistentAgent._ensure_session_async (line ~232). Fix: guard with an asyncio.Lock initialized alongside _session_initialized.
