After a codecontext overview-class tool call lands (get_codebase_overview,
get_framework_analysis, get_semantic_neighborhoods), the pipeline runs a
second inference pass that replaces the recursive runAssistantTurn. The
synth pass auto-fetches the top-N source files referenced in the
codecontext output plus project docs (BOOCHAT.md, AGENTS.md,
*roadmap*.md, CONTEXT.md), applies a 32k-token budget with explicit
drop-priority, and streams a structured response that grounds the model
in real load-bearing code rather than relying on the codecontext summary
alone. Smoke #1 (default) and #2 (Architect) both cite the correct
inference/turn.ts + tool-phase.ts + stream-phase.ts files; smoke #6
(fault injection) verifies the fall-through path marks the synth message
status='failed' and yields cleanly to the recursive turn.
## Truncation-aware extraction
codecontext's wrapper inline-truncates results at 32k chars. Without the
expansion step, the top-N file selection only saw the alphabetical head
of the codebase (apps/booterm/dist/*) and auto-fetched the wrong sources.
The pipeline now calls in-process readTruncation(outputPath) before
extracting referenced files, so top-N selection sees the full 80k+ char
output. The 32k truncated head still ships to the synth model — the
expansion is reference-extraction-only, preserving the token-budget
contract. Graceful degradation on readTruncation null/throw: log warn,
fall back to the truncated head.
## Schema deviation from dispatch
The dispatch claimed no schema migration was needed for the new
'synthesis' part kind. Reality: message_parts.kind has an explicit
CHECK constraint (schema.sql:54) that would reject the new value. Added
a DROP CONSTRAINT IF EXISTS + DO $$ pg_constraint idempotency-guarded
re-add matching the CLAUDE.md migration pattern. The inline CREATE TABLE
constraint also updated so fresh installs land with the extended enum.
## User-abort marks synth-message failed
Deviation from review-time spec ("user-abort path does NOT mark the
message failed"). The outer abort handler in error-handler.ts operates
on the parent turn's assistantMessageId, not the new synth row that
runSynthesisPass created. Without explicit marking, the synth row would
sit in status='streaming' until the 5-min stale-streaming sweeper
(v1.13.1-cleanup-bundle), tripping the frontend's 60s no-token-activity
banner in the meantime — exactly the UX bug class the v1.13.1 sweeper
was added to handle. Marking failed on every catch path (including
user-abort) closes the gap. Cost: one extra DB write + one publish on
the rare user-abort-during-synth path.
## Race-safe synth-tool capture
tool-phase.ts uses synthEntries: Array<{tc, output, error?}> with
per-callback push under Promise.all. find() picks the first non-error
entry by call-order (toolCalls array index). Multiple synth-tools in
one batch are uncommon but handled deterministically.
## Roadmap rebase
Updated boocode_roadmap.md retrospective section + cleanup-order tracker
+ schema-changes summary to use the new vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH-slug tag
names per the 2026-05-22 retag (CHANGELOG.md is the canonical record).
v1.13.15 listed as "this batch, tag pending"; a one-line follow-up
commit will remove that qualifier after the tag lands.

Status indicator (StatusDot): drops the flat amber pulse for a richer set
of states — orbiting amber for streaming, spinning sky ring for tool_running,
static violet for waiting_for_input, plus the existing idle/error. Backend
chat_status frame widens from 'working|idle|error' to discriminate streaming
vs tool execution vs paused for user input.
Workspace pane sync: pane layout moves from per-device localStorage to
server-side sessions.workspace_panes jsonb. PATCH /api/sessions/:id/workspace
broadcasts session_workspace_updated on the user channel for cross-device live
sync. Echo dedup via JSON comparison so the round-trip frame doesn't loop.
Legacy localStorage seeds the server on first hydrate, then is deleted.
Deprecated session_panes table dropped.
Resilience: startup sweep marks any stale 'streaming' message older than
5 minutes as 'failed' so v1.12.0-style hung rows clear on container restart.
useWorkspacePanes gains validatePanes() to prune dead chatId references from
saved pane state when the chat list lands.

v1.8.3 (tool-call compaction), themes-v1, v1.9 (settings pane +
per-project defaults + bulk archive), and v1.11 (agents Tier 2) were
all marked Planned/in-flight in the roadmap despite being merged on
main. Reconcile the Batch summary table and reorder the Order of
operations to start at v1.10. Drop the stale "Active work" section —
themes-v1 description belongs in the past tense now.

Old hardcoded MAX_TOOL_LOOP_DEPTH=15 replaced by per-agent
max_tool_calls (1-100, AGENTS.md frontmatter) with defaults: 30 for
read-only-only agents, 10 for agents that include any non-read-only
tool, 15 for raw chat. When the loop hits cap, fire one final summary
call with tools disabled, stream the wrap-up into the in-flight
assistant message, then insert a system sentinel with
metadata.kind='cap_hit'. The sentinel renders an amber bubble with a
Continue button (latest sentinel only) that POSTs to a new
/api/chats/:id/continue route to extend. Hard ceiling: 3 cap-hits per
chat (2 continues max) — third sentinel reports can_continue=false.
Error frames carry a machine-readable reason code alongside human
error text. Failed messages persist the reason via
metadata.kind='error' so the bubble renders specifics on reload (WS
error frame is one-shot).
Tool call UI rewired: ToolCallLine renders inline (↳ name args
spinner/check/✗, expand-on-tap for args+result); ToolCallGroup
collapses 3+ consecutive same-tool runs into a compact card.
MessageList owns a three-pass pre-render (flatten + fold tool
results onto matching runs by id + group same-tool runs + number
sentinels). MessageBubble drops tool rendering and adds the
sentinel / error-reason branches. ToolCallCard deleted.
Roadmap follow-up logged: add explicit max_tool_calls: 30 to the 6
agents in /data/AGENTS.md and /opt/boocode/AGENTS.md post-ship for
discoverability (defaults handle behavior identically).

Mobile header is now two rows. Row 1: hamburger | project · branch
indicator (live via GET /api/projects/:id/git, 30s poll) | ModelPicker |
FolderTree. Row 2: pane-switcher pill (hand-rolled BottomSheet) +
NewPaneMenu. Chat-within-pane navigation hidden on mobile; users switch
panes via the sheet. Cross-tab status sync via chat_status frames
published from inference.ts at working/idle/error transitions; StatusDot
component renders amber-pulse/green/red/gray on each pane row and on
desktop ChatTabBar tabs. Level 1 git awareness exposes a read-only
git_status tool to the model, backed by services/git_meta.ts (execFile
+ 2s timeout + 30s cache). Workspace.tsx now receives panes/chats hooks
as props (hoisted into Session.tsx) so the header pill shares state
with the pane grid.

Update version summary: v1.6-mobile-pass and v1.6.1-cleanup are now
merged with SHAs; v1.6.2-mobile-ui-fixes added as in-flight with its
4-commit plan. v1.6.1-cleanup details rewritten to reflect what
actually shipped (B1) vs what was audited-only (secrets, panes,
unused exports, hand-rolled patterns, mount scope, etc.).
Closed two open items: session_renamed has a server publisher since
v1.4; PATCH /api/panes/:id is moot (endpoint never re-introduced).
Dependency graph updated with v1.6.2 node between v1.6.1 and v1.7.

Captures v1.0 through v1.6 history with status, decisions made,
schema additions, reusable patterns, tech stack, container topology,
and the dependency graph going forward through v1.11 (BooTerm).
Authored by Sam; v1.6 details lifted from the v1.6 hand-back.
