Direct bumps: ws 8.21.0, vitest 3.2.6 (critical UI-server RCE), js-yaml 4.2.0.
Root pnpm.overrides: hono, undici, qs, fast-uri, react-router(-dom), @babel/core,
range-scoped esbuild, and a global vite pin (forces vitest onto Vite 6).
Major migrations with no code changes (API-audited): fastify 4 to 5 across
server/coder/control/booterm (+@fastify/websocket 11, @fastify/static 9.1.1),
vite 5 to 6 +@vitejs/plugin-react 4.7 in web. pnpm audit: no known vulnerabilities.
Suites green: contracts 29, server 599, coder 589, control 175, ion 104.
Arena is a new pane kind for competitive AI evaluation. A Battle runs
the same prompt against 2-6 Contestants across two concurrent lanes:
local lane (llama-swap models, serial) and cloud lane (parallel).
Added to all three registries: @boocode/contracts WsFrameSchema,
server InferenceFrame, and web WsFrame.
Backend (apps/coder):
- arena-runner: battle scheduler, lane classifier, benchmark, results
writer, resume, user winner override
- arena-analyzer: two-stage digest→judge analysis on DEFAULT_MODEL
- arena-decisions: status transitions and resume logic (unit-tested)
- arena-analyzer-helpers: pure helper functions (unit-tested)
- arena-model-call: model call utility for analysis
- arena routes: create/get/list/stop/analyze/cross-examine/winner/diff
- schema: battles, contestants, cross_examinations tables (idempotent)
- remove old /api/arena* routes and tasks.arena_id column
Frontend (apps/web):
- ArenaLauncherDialog: battle type, prompt, contestant selection
- ArenaPane: live roster, streaming output, analysis, cross-exam
- DiffView: unified diff with line-by-line color for coding contests
- Winner override per-row dropdown (Trophy icon)
- battle_updated WS handler for live winner/analysis updates
- arena pane kind in Workspace, ChatTabBar, useSidebar
Cross-app:
- ArenaState and ArenaContestantShape/WsFrame types (contracts)
- battle_* frames in WsFrameSchema, InferenceFrame, and web WsFrame
- manifest.json written per battle results folder
- /Arena added to .gitignore
Move all hand-synced cross-app wire contracts into one built workspace
package, @boocode/contracts, consumed by server/web/coder/coder-web via
workspace:* + a per-subpath exports map. The ws-frames and provider-config
Zod schemas are schema-first (z.infer); MessageMetadata, ErrorReason,
AgentSessionConfig, the provider snapshot types, and WorktreeRiskReport are
each single-sourced. Deletes the byte-identical copies and their parity
tests, fixes a live AgentSessionConfig drift (coder dead copy removed,
unified to the web required/nullable shape), removes the dead pending_change
WS arms in the fallback SPA, and inverts the build order (contracts builds
first) across root build, Dockerfile, and the coder deploy docs. Reverses
the shared-package decision declined in v2.5.12.
