+
+Docs-only — CLAUDE.md session-learnings update, no code. Captures four recurring gotchas surfaced while shipping `v2.6.5-panes-tabs-composer`: (1) `sessions.workspace_panes` is now a `WorkspaceState` envelope (`panes` + `tabNumbers`/`nextTabNumber` + `closedPaneStack`), migrated from the legacy bare `WorkspacePane[]` on both frontend hydrate (`toWorkspaceState`) and the union-accepting server PATCH validator; (2) DB/session-aware tools take an optional `ToolExecCtx` (`{ sql, sessionId }`) 4th arg on `ToolDef.execute`, plumbed through the tool phase, with `read_tab_by_number` as the reference; (3) the two-schema-files-one-DB ownership split — `apps/coder/src/schema.sql` owns `agent_sessions`/`worktrees`/`pending_changes`/`available_agents` and extends `tasks`, distinct from BooChat's `apps/server/src/schema.sql` — plus the idempotent `confdeltype` FK-action-flip pattern (guard `ON DELETE` changes on `pg_constraint.confdeltype` so re-runs no-op); and (4) React StrictMode is on, so a `setState` called inside another `setState`'s updater double-fires in dev and must be made idempotent. Pairs with `v2.6.5-panes-tabs-composer`.

+## v2.6.5-panes-tabs-composer — 2026-05-31
+
+A workspace UX batch across BooChat panes, tabs, and the composer, plus the persistence model that backs them. **Panes & tabs:** a chat can be opened in a fresh pane (the ChatTabBar tab context menu's "Open in new pane", and the fork button — which now lands the fork beside the original via a new `open_chat_in_new_pane` event instead of replacing the active pane); the per-pane "+" became a New BooChat/BooTerm/BooCode menu; closing a chat pane relocates its tabs (in order) into the oldest chat/empty pane instead of discarding them, and reopen strips the restored chatIds from every live pane first so a relocated-then-reopened pane never duplicates a tab (no stack-shape change); each tab carries a stable session-scoped number assigned on open and retired on close (never reused), rendered map-keyed rather than positional. The per-message "Open in pane" artifact button was removed, and the empty/landing pane became a real session history — the session's open chats plus separately-fetched archived chats, click to open or restore-and-open. **Persistence:** `sessions.workspace_panes` was widened from a bare `WorkspacePane[]` to a `WorkspaceState` envelope (`panes` + `tabNumbers`/`nextTabNumber` + `closedPaneStack`) so tab numbers and the reopen stack survive reload; the PATCH validator accepts the legacy array or the envelope (zod union) and migrates on write, and the `session_workspace_updated` WS-frame schema was widened on both web and server (byte-identical, parity test green) — the same schema-drift class as `v2.6.4-agent-sessions-fk`. **Composer:** the send button morphs Send → Stop → Queue with generation state (BooCoder keys on `sending || activeTaskId`, which also corrected its queue gates and added `cancelTask`), the standalone "Stop generating" pill was folded into it, and pasted chips now trail the typed text so a leading slash command stays first. **Tooling:** adds the read-only `read_tab_by_number` tool — resolves a session-scoped tab number to its chat via the persisted `tabNumbers` map and returns that chat's transcript; tools gained an optional `ToolExecCtx` (`{ sql, sessionId }`) on `execute` to support DB-reading tools. Builds on `v2.6.4-agent-sessions-fk`.

 ## v2.6.4-agent-sessions-fk — 2026-05-31
 
 Follow-up to `v2.6.3-chatkey-and-skills` (P1.5-b): the live `agent_sessions.session_id` foreign key is converged from `ON DELETE CASCADE` to `ON DELETE SET NULL`, matching the schema's stated intent. The P1.5-b re-key block re-adds `session_id_fkey` as `SET NULL`, but the whole block is guarded on `chat_id_fkey`'s absence — so a database already re-keyed to `(chat_id, agent)` while `session_id_fkey` was still `CASCADE` never re-enters it, leaving the live FK at `CASCADE` and diverging from both `worktree_id` (already `SET NULL`) and the `v2.6.3` changelog's own claim that `session_id` is informational `SET NULL`. The fix adds a standalone `confdeltype`-guarded `DO` block (mirroring the `session_worktrees` defang) that flips `session_id_fkey` `CASCADE → SET NULL` independently of the re-key gate; it is idempotent — fires only while the FK is still `'c'`, a no-op on a fresh deploy (already `'n'`) and on every re-run. The live DB was converged by hand with the identical statements, so `applySchema` and the hand-applied state match (`\d agent_sessions` now shows `session_id ... ON DELETE SET NULL`). Also bundles a CLAUDE.md doc-sync (committed separately): per-session SSE (P1.5-a) and the `(chat_id, agent)` re-key reflected in the engineering notes, the stale root `AGENTS.md` navigation pointer dropped, and new conventions for `data/AGENTS.md` parsing and the `data/skills/<vendor>/` layout.

Hydrate (`toWorkspaceState`) and the server PATCH validator (`z.union([array, envelope])` in `routes/sessions.ts`) both accept the legacy array and normalize to the envelope on read/write. Closing a chat pane relocates its tabs to the oldest chat/empty pane; `reopenPane` strips the restored chatIds from all live panes first (no duplication). `read_tab_by_number` resolves a number→chatId through `tabNumbers`.

Both apply idempotently to the one `boochat` DB — so e.g. an `agent_sessions` FK change goes in the **coder** schema, not the server one. Idempotent FK-action flips (e.g. `ON DELETE CASCADE`→`SET NULL`) guard on `pg_constraint.confdeltype` so a re-run/fresh-deploy is a no-op (see the `session_worktrees`/`agent_sessions` defang blocks).
 
 Schema CHECK migration order when renaming allowed values: (1) `ALTER TABLE ... DROP CONSTRAINT IF EXISTS <system_name>` (inline `CREATE TABLE` checks get `<table>_<column>_check`), (2) `UPDATE` rows to new values, (3) wrap new constraint ADD in `DO $$ ... pg_constraint` guard — that block is the only way to get `ADD CONSTRAINT IF NOT EXISTS`.

 - A scrollable list inside a Dialog on mobile: cap `DialogContent` (`max-h-[85vh]` + `grid-rows-[auto_minmax(0,1fr)_auto]`) and make the list the single scroll region with `overscroll-contain` — otherwise touch-scroll drags the whole fixed modal / chains to the page.
 - xterm.js v5 uses canvas rendering — browser doesn't see xterm's selection; the native right-click menu has no working Copy for terminal text. App keybindings (`Cmd/Ctrl-C`, `Cmd/Ctrl-Shift-C`) are the path.
 - **New tools** live in their own `services/<name>.ts` file (see `web_search.ts`, `web_fetch.ts`) — exports a pure `executeFoo(input, ...deps)` for direct test access plus a `ToolDef` wrapper that `loadConfig()`s its real dependencies. Register the ToolDef in `tools.ts` `ALL_TOOLS` (and `READ_ONLY_TOOL_NAMES` if applicable). Inject `fetcher: typeof fetch = fetch` rather than `vi.spyOn(globalThis, 'fetch')` — cleanup is simpler and the production call site stays unchanged.
+- **DB/session-aware tools** take an optional 4th `ToolExecCtx { sql, sessionId }` arg on `ToolDef.execute`, plumbed `executeToolPhase`→`executeToolCall`→`execute`. It's optional so the filesystem tools and the `apps/coder` `ALL_TOOLS` consumer stay compatible; filesystem tools ignore it. `read_tab_by_number` (reads `sessions.workspace_panes` + the chat's messages via `sql`) is the reference.
 - **Sentinels** are `role='system'` rows with structured `metadata.kind` (`cap_hit`, `doom_loop`). UI-only — `buildMessagesPayload` strips them via `isAnySentinel` so the LLM never sees them. A new kind requires arms in `MessageMetadata` in BOTH `apps/server/src/types/api.ts` AND `apps/web/src/api/types.ts`, plus a render branch in `apps/web/src/components/MessageBubble.tsx`.
 - **ReadableStream test stubs** use `pull()` (not `start()`) so chunks are produced lazily — `start()` enqueues everything and calls `controller.close()` before the consumer reads, so a subsequent `reader.cancel()` finds the stream already closed and the `cancel()` callback never fires. Also provide MORE chunks than the test will consume so the source stays in 'readable' state when cancel runs (e.g. cap test reads ~6 chunks, stub provides 10).
+- React **StrictMode is on** (`main.tsx`): an updater passed to one `setState` that itself calls another `setState` (e.g. `setClosedPaneStack` inside a `setPanes` updater) is double-invoked in dev. Make such nested updates idempotent — `useWorkspacePanes`'s `appendClosed` dedupes a value-identical top entry for exactly this reason.
 - Tool-name whitelists must derive from `ALL_TOOLS` in `services/tools.ts`, never hardcoded. `services/agents.ts` `ALL_TOOL_NAMES` had this drift class until v1.12 — same pattern applies to any future tool-aware code.
 - Agent registry lives at `data/AGENTS.md` (global, bind-mounted at `/data/AGENTS.md`). No per-project `AGENTS.md` in this repo — removed in v1.12 to eliminate the two-files-must-stay-in-sync drift. The `getAgentsForProject` per-project override mechanism remains for *other* projects.
 - `data/AGENTS.md` is PARSED (`agents.ts` `splitSections`/`parseAgentSection`): each `## <Name>` is one agent and must be followed by a `---` frontmatter fence or the block throws; content before the first `## ` is discarded. Do NOT add free-form `## ` rule sections — they break the registry. Cross-cutting agent rules go in CLAUDE.md or a parser-ignored preamble.

+# BooCode — External Code Review v2 (lift findings)
+
+Last updated: 2026-05-31
+
+A point-in-time **findings** doc, not a standing inventory. It consolidates two reconnaissance passes against the upstream forks at `/opt/forks/` and decides, per area, what BooCode should do about it. Pin it so the same upstreams aren't re-evaluated from scratch next month.
+
+> **Companion docs:** `boocode_code_review.md` is the standing external-repo inventory (every repo BooCode references, *why* each earned its row, license analysis). `boocode_roadmap.md` is the canonical shipping-state / version-ordering source. This v2 doc is the **action layer** on top of both: "given what's upstream as of 2026-05-31, here's the lift/cross-check/re-derive/n-a call." Reconcile shipping state via the roadmap when in doubt; fold durable rows back into `boocode_code_review.md`.
+
+## Sources feeding this doc
+
+1. **Paseo recon (Sam)** — two passes: a Phase 2/3 server-manager recon and a claude-transport recon. Conclusions consolidated by area below (§2a). AGPL-3.0 — **pattern-only, no code lift, ever.**
+2. **Three-fork agent sweep (this session, 2026-05-31)** — read-only general-purpose agents over `anomalyco/opencode` (MIT, code-liftable), `getpaseo/paseo` (AGPL, pattern-only), `ggml-org/llama.cpp` (consumed via llama-swap/sidecar — adopt features/flags, not C++). Detail in §2–§4.
+3. **Second fork sweep (this session, 2026-05-31)** — 8 read-only agents over the remaining 11 repos in `/opt/forks/` (conductor, superset, openchamber, happy, cline, qwen-code, amp-acp, pi-acp, claude-code, goose, unsloth). Detail in §5; high-value items folded into §1.

+- `/opt/forks/llama.cpp` is a **shallow clone** (90 commits, ~5 days visible). llama.cpp findings are read from source as it stands today; "what changed when" attribution is limited. `git fetch --unshallow` before the next review.
+- `/opt/forks/opencode` arrived shallow (rooted 2026-05-25); the agent ran `git fetch --unshallow` and re-surveyed the real 6-week window. opencode also did a v2 Effect/event-sourced rewrite (`packages/core/`, `packages/llm/`) — most of that churn is architecturally divergent and ruled out.
+- HEADs at review time: paseo `41cb1af` (main, v0.1.87), opencode `1afa9e3` (dev, ~v1.15.13), llama.cpp `aa46bda8` (detached).

+## Verdict legend
+
+| Verdict | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| **LIFT** | Take it. Flavor noted: *code-lift* (MIT), *pattern-lift* (AGPL/clean-room re-impl), *config-adopt* (new upstream flag), *drop-our-code* (upstream now does it → delete ours). |
+| **RE-DERIVE** | Idea is right, their impl is insufficient/divergent for our needs — write fresh, don't adapt theirs. |
+| **CROSS-CHECK** | We already have it; confirmed current vs upstream. No action. |
+| **TRACK** | Behavioral/external change to be aware of. No code action now. |
+| **N-A** | Not liftable into our architecture, or reduces to a separate decision. |

+
+**Headline:** #1 stays the strategic win and is now **settled, not speculative** — the unsloth recon confirmed both lifted files are AGPL-3.0-only (§5k); the only gate is the jinja config check (§6). The second sweep added four genuinely-new code lifts: **#3 fuzzy patch applier** and **#4 git-stash checkpoint** (both cline, both directly fix where BooCoder's write/edit surface is weakest for local models), **#5 openchamber lifecycle hardening** (the concrete, MIT, same-architecture answer to v2.6 Phase 3 — supersedes the weaker paseo re-derive), and **#7 stream-json parsing** (cheap, shared by qwen+claude PTY). #2 Phase-2 warm-ACP is now de-risked by qwen's own reference impl. #9 resolves the claude direction (lean SDK).
+
+-----
+
+## 2. Paseo (AGPL-3.0 — pattern-only)
+
+### 2a. Consolidated recon, by area (Sam's two passes)
+
+| Area | Verdict | One-line |
+|------|---------|----------|
+| OpenCode server lifecycle | **CROSS-CHECK** | Paseo hand-rolls the spawn (not `createOpencodeServer`), waits for "listening on" on stdout, port-0 allocation, concurrent callers wait on one `startPromise`, no `OPENCODE_SERVER_PASSWORD`. Same shape BooCode shipped in v2.6.1 — nothing to lift. |
+| OpenCode crash recovery + reconnect | **RE-DERIVE → superseded** | Lazy restart-on-demand (exit handler nulls the server, next `getCurrentServer()` respawns), no active supervision; `resumeSession` does **not** verify the session exists on disk before resuming. Insufficient for Phase 3. **Update (2nd sweep):** `openchamber` (§5c) has a *better, MIT, same-architecture* version — health-monitor state machine + crash auto-restart + busy-aware restart. Lift from openchamber, not paseo. |
+| Warm-ACP supervision (goose/qwen) | **LIFT · pattern** | `SpawnedACPProcess`: one spawn, one `session/new`, many prompts; child lives for the session not the turn; per-turn abort = `connection.cancel({sessionId})` **without killing the child**; child-exit fires `turn_failed` (no restart). Clean signal split; integrates against BooCode's existing `acp-dispatch.ts`. **This is the Phase 2 lift — and qwen-code (§5f) ships its own `qwen --acp` reference impl that validates the whole approach.** |
+| OpenCode reasoning dedup | **CROSS-CHECK** | `streamedPartKeys` keyed `reasoning:${partID}`; delta adds the key, final part skips if present, cleared per turn. Identical to v2.6.1. |
+| Claude transport | **N-A** | Paseo uses `@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk` in stream-json mode, not PTY. Getting Paseo's transport means adopting the SDK — net-new integration, not a lift. |
+| Claude continuity | **LIFT · code** | `claude --resume <sessionId>` across turns: capture the session id from claude's output, store it, pass `--resume` next turn; claude re-reads its transcript and continues. Small change to BooCode's PTY dispatch (run with `--output-format stream-json`, parse the id, persist, resume). **The actionable claude finding.** |
+| Claude streaming/parsing | **N-A** | Structured events (tool calls, reasoning, partials) come from the SDK; PTY degrades to scraping. Adopting structured claude streaming = adopting the SDK — separate decision. |
+| Claude session persistence | **CROSS-CHECK** | Same `describePersistence`/`resumeSession` shape BooCode already has for opencode; claude slots in. Neither Paseo nor BooCode verifies the transcript exists on disk before resume (**shared open question** — see §5). |
+
+**Recon's net:** LIFT = warm-ACP supervision (Phase 2) + claude `--resume` continuity (standalone batch). RE-DERIVE = OpenCode crash recovery (Phase 3). Everything else cross-check or n/a. The two n/a claude items both reduce to **one deferred decision: adopt `@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk` or stay PTY.**
+
+### 2b. Additional findings (this session's Paseo agent sweep)
+
+These came from the broader agent pass, not the targeted Phase 2/3 recon. Where they touch the same code as §2a, the §2a recon is authoritative.
+
+| Finding | Verdict | Notes |
+|---------|---------|-------|
+| **Post-interrupt stale-terminal suppression** (paseo `1d38aac`) | **LIFT · pattern (bugfix)** | See §3 #3 — verified to be a live bug in BooCode. Highest-confidence paseo item. |
+| **Provider-agnostic `AgentUsage`** normalized usage/cost frame | **LIFT · pattern** | Converges with opencode's `session.next.step.ended` (§3 #4). Paseo's `{inputTokens, cachedInputTokens, outputTokens, totalCostUsd, contextWindowMax/Used}` is the target *shape* for normalizing across providers; do the opencode slice first. |
+| **Worktree-archive → cascade-archive agents + schedule cleanup** (paseo `b6103a5`) | **WATCH → adopt in Phase 3** | Soft-delete (keep `archivedAt`), single archive event fans out to children + downstream rows, `Promise.allSettled` so one failed delete doesn't abandon the rest. Right shape for the v2.6 Phase 3 worktree reaper. |
+| **Server retire/refcount + LRU-bound caches** (paseo `server-manager.ts`, leak-fix `f20393d`) | **WATCH** (low confidence) | The agent read a retire-set/refcount mechanism; the §2a server-manager recon concluded "nothing to lift." Treat the *lifecycle* as cross-check (§2a wins). The one durable takeaway: **bound the per-session/per-worktree Maps in the warm opencode server** (long-lived daemon → unbounded caches leak). Confirm against §2a before acting. |
+| **Subagent permission forwarding** (paseo `44863ec`) | **WATCH (gated)** | opencode `task` tool spawns child sessions; forward `permission.asked` from tracked children by `parentID` demux. **Blocked:** BooCode's opencode-SSE path has zero permission handling today (runs auto-approve). Reachable only after BooCoder builds opencode-SSE permission cards at all. Ties to v2.4. |
+
+-----
+
+## 3. OpenCode (MIT — code-liftable)
+
+| # | Finding | Evidence | Verdict | Notes |
+|---|---------|----------|---------|-------|
+| 1 | **Consume the fuller `session.next.*` event set** in `opencode-server.ts` | `packages/core/src/session/event.ts:105-365`; BooCode handles only ~5 arms (`opencode-server.ts:215-311`) | **LIFT · code** | Events already in the **installed** `@opencode-ai/sdk` — **no dep bump.** High-value arms: **`step.ended`** (`{tokens{input,output,reasoning,cache},cost}` → #4 below); **`compaction.{started,delta,ended}`** (warm server auto-compacts mid-conversation; today shows as a silent context gap); `tool.progress`, `tool.input.{started,delta}`, `retried`, `step.failed`. |
+| 4 | **ctx/token usage for opencode** (the high-value slice of #1) | `event.ts:117-135` | **LIFT · code** | Closes the roadmap-named gap: *"opencode/goose/qwen/claude dispatch with no ctx/token usage; only native boocode tracks ctx."* Mirror BooChat's existing `'usage'` WS frame on the coder side; accumulate per `(chat, agent)`. Converges with paseo `AgentUsage` (§2b). |
+| 2 | **Stalled-stream chunk-timeout** (`wrapSSE` + header timeout) | `provider/provider.ts:40-96` (`f965db9`, `c7e1fc5`) | **WATCH · pattern** | BooChat's `stream-phase.ts` has **no server-side stall timeout** — a hung llama-swap stream relies entirely on the frontend 60s `discard_stale` watchdog. ~40-60 LoC to wrap the `fullStream` loop with a per-chunk timeout firing the existing abort path. Low incidence on a single local instance; do it if stuck rows recur. |
+| 3 | **Retry-with-backoff + retryability classifier** (`session/retry.ts`) | `session/retry.ts`, `message-v2.ts:1155` (`14e0b9b`) | **WATCH · pattern** | BooChat has **zero** retry logic. `delay()` parses `retry-after[-ms]` headers w/ exp-backoff fallback; `retryable()` classifies transient-5xx / rate-limit / context-overflow-exclusion. Strip the Go-billing arms. Pairs naturally with #2. llama-swap rarely emits `retry-after`, so value is mostly transient-5xx/stall retry. |
+| — | **MCP auth file-lock** (`mcp/auth.ts`, `fa73ec4`) | — | **N-A (deferred)** | Serializes concurrent OAuth token refreshes. Can't trigger — BooCode's config schema *rejects* OAuth MCP servers until secret storage lands (roadmap). Note for when OAuth MCP is un-deferred. |
+
+**Confirmed current (cross-check, no refresh needed):** compaction algorithm (incl. `tail_start_id`/`splitTurn` post-fix — verified identical), two-tier prune, truncate, run-loop (BooCode drives off live `result.toolCalls`, not a history scan — not vulnerable to opencode's interrupted-tool re-prompt bug), doom-loop guard, MCP client, permission ruleset. **Ruled out:** v2 Effect/event-sourced core, `packages/llm/` native runtime (diverges from the AI SDK v6 BooCode just adopted), adaptive-reasoning (cloud-Anthropic only), `acp-next` (BooCoder is the ACP *client*).
+
+-----
+
+## 4. llama.cpp (consumed via llama-swap / llama-sidecar — adopt features, not C++)
+
+### 4a. ⭐ Retire the AGPL tool-call parser — **LIFT · drop-our-code**
+
+llama-server moved to a **template-learning PEG auto-parser + lazy grammar** that parses qwen3.5/3.6's tool markup server-side into OpenAI `tool_calls`.
+
+- **Evidence:** `common/chat-auto-parser-generator.cpp`, `common/chat-diff-analyzer.cpp` (1570 lines), `common/chat-peg-parser.cpp`; shipped `models/templates/Qwen3.5-4B.jinja` (uses BooCode's exact Pattern-2 `<tool_call><function=…><parameter=…>` + `<think>`); server emits structured `tool_calls` in **both** non-streaming and streaming (`tools/server/server-chat.cpp:421-577`), reasoning split into `reasoning_content`/`reasoning_content_delta`. `tool_choice=required` + grammar-constrained calls exist (`common/chat.cpp:290-300`).
+- **Gate (the one open question):** only fires if llama-server runs with **`--jinja` + a qwen3.x template**. BooCode already treats `--jinja`/`--chat-template*` as managed flags (`llama-args-validator.ts:92-102`) and sends `tools`/`toolChoice:'auto'` through the AI SDK (`stream-phase.ts:202,438`) — the path is wired; the unknown is whether the **live llama-swap/sidecar model config passes `--jinja`** (§5).
+- **What's missing:** no qwen3.x-named native handler — qwen3.6 rides the generic template-driven path. The template teaches Patterns 1 (`<tool_call>{json}`) and 2 (`<function=…>`) but **not Pattern 3 (`<invoke name=…>`)**, the Anthropic-shape residue qwen drifts into.
+- **Staged plan (do not delete blind — CLAUDE.md notes qwen3.6 was unreliable):**
+  1. Confirm `--jinja` + Qwen3.5 template are live (add the flags if not).
+  2. Validate native `tool_calls` against **real qwen3.6 streaming** for one release, behind a feature flag.
+  3. Trim `tool-call-parser.ts` to a **clean-room `<invoke>`-only fallback** (~250 of 427 lines deletable; rewrite the remainder without Unsloth/AGPL provenance). **Net: AGPL-3.0 liability eliminated** even if a thin fallback stays.
+
+### 4b. Config-level adopts — **LIFT · config-adopt** (pass straight through llama-swap as OpenAI-compat body fields; no binary upgrade)
+
+- **New sampling params** (`server-task.cpp:279-290`): `top_n_sigma`, `xtc_probability/threshold`, `typical_p`, the **`dry_*` repetition family** (`dry_multiplier/base/allowed_length/penalty_last_n/sequence_breakers`), `frequency_penalty`, `repeat_penalty`. `top_n_sigma` + `dry_*` are the high-value pair for an agentic model prone to loops — ties to the doom-loop sentinel. Surface in AGENTS.md frontmatter + the validator allowlist.
+- **`--reasoning-budget N`** (`LLAMA_ARG_THINK_BUDGET`) + `--reasoning on|off|auto`, default `reasoning_format=auto`: server-side cap on qwen3.6 thinking (cheaper turns) without prompt hacks, and `reasoning_content` arrives as a **separate field** — BooCode could consume it directly instead of scraping `<think>`.
+
+### 4c. Behavioral changes — **TRACK** (no code action; awareness)
+
+- **SSE headers sent at slot-start** (`0821c5fcf`): in stream mode, HTTP 200 + headers flush when prompt processing *begins*, before the first token. BooCode keys its stale-stream timer on **token activity**, not header arrival → safe, but time-to-headers semantics shift. Also `task_params.stream` default flipped `true → false` — harmless for BooCode (always sets `stream`), but any llama-swap/sidecar code omitting `stream` now defaults to non-streaming.
+- **`/props` router-mode dummy `n_ctx:0`** (`server-models.cpp:1170-1173`): llama.cpp gained a native multi-model router; its **bare** `/props` (no `?model=`) returns `n_ctx:0`. BooCode reads `/upstream/<model>/props` which resolves to a specific model → still correct today. Silent failure mode only if a bare router `/props` is ever hit: `ctx_max=0` → rejected → negative-cache masks the misconfig → compaction budget degrades. (Aside: the native router could eventually **replace llama-swap** — separate evaluation.)
+- **`LLAMA_ARG_` env-prefix unification** (`6b4e4bd58`): confirm the sidecar's `LLAMA_*` env vars use the `LLAMA_ARG_` prefix.
+
+### 4d. **SKIP**
+
+- Native **Anthropic Messages API** in llama-server (`test_compat_anthropic.py`) — BooCode is OpenAI-compat via the AI SDK; switching wire formats buys nothing. (Minor TRACK: could in principle back a local "claude-compatible" provider — net-new feature, not a lift.)
+- Qwen 3.5/3.6 **TP granularity fix** (`8b0e0db60`) — only relevant if running qwen3.6 across 3 GPUs with tensor-parallel; then it's a binary-upgrade correctness fix, not an API change.
+- HTTP ETags / `--api-key-file` / timeout bump — irrelevant behind Authelia + llama-swap.

+## 5. Second fork sweep (2026-05-31) — 11 repos
+
+Read-only agent review of everything else in `/opt/forks/` except the three already covered (paseo/opencode/llama.cpp), BooCode's own `llama-sidecar`, and `codecontext`/`codesight` (skipped on request). Repos: **conductor, superset, openchamber, happy, cline, qwen-code, amp-acp, pi-acp, claude-code, goose, unsloth.** Shallow clones (history-limited but source intact): cline, qwen-code, amp-acp, pi-acp, claude-code, goose, unsloth. Full: conductor, superset, openchamber, happy.
+
+### 5a. openchamber (`openchamber/openchamber`, **MIT** — code-liftable) ⭐
+Multi-runtime (web/PWA/Electron/VS Code) GUI for **opencode-as-warm-server** — the closest architectural sibling to BooCoder's backend. **Stronger than BooCode in exactly one dimension: opencode process-lifecycle hardening** (BooCode's v2.6 Phase 3 frontier). Divergence shaping every lift: openchamber runs **one global opencode server + one `/global/event` stream**; BooCode runs per-`(chat,agent)` sessions with per-session `event.subscribe({directory})` — so these are pattern/code-adaptation lifts, not drop-ins.
+
+| # | Finding | Evidence (HEAD `a394a877`) | Verdict | Maps to |
+|---|---------|---------|---------|---------|
+| 5c | **Lifecycle hardening: health monitor + crash auto-restart + busy-aware restart** | `packages/web/server/lib/opencode/lifecycle.js` — `runHealthCheckCycle` (L896), `HEALTH_CHECK_MAX_CONSECUTIVE_FAILURES=20`, `shouldSkipRestartForBusySessions`+`STALE_BUSY_GRACE_MS` (L872/838), `startHealthMonitoring` 15s (L938), `triggerHealthCheck` (L930). BooCode's `opencode-server.ts:143` literally comments *"recovery is Phase 3"* | **LIFT · pattern** | **v2.6 Phase 3** (#5) |
+| | **Port reclaim before respawn** (`killProcessOnPort` lsof+kill, `waitForPortRelease` net.connect poll) | `lifecycle.js:44,101`, used in `restartOpenCode` L595 | LIFT · code (S) | Phase 3 |
+| | **Stall-detecting SSE reader + `Last-Event-ID` replay** (2048-event ring, 20s stall-abort) | `lib/event-stream/upstream-reader.js:110-131`, `global-hub.js:88-149` | LIFT · pattern (the stall-timer half is S, high-value) | hardens `runSessionEventLoop` |
+| | **`OPENCODE_SERVER_PASSWORD` scheme confirmed** = `Authorization: Basic base64("opencode:"+pw)`, rotate-on-restart | `packages/vscode/src/opencode.ts:55-65,786`; `lifecycle.js:458` | CROSS-CHECK → LIFT · config | closes a known unknown (BooCode runs the warm server unsecured on loopback) |

+
+Ruled out: warm-ACP/goose/qwen/claude (openchamber is **opencode-only**), SSE part-translation/reasoning-dedup (BooCode's is more complete), Arena-equivalent, permission cards — all already-better-in-BooCode or N-A.
+
+### 5b. cline (`cline/cline`, **Apache-2.0** — code-liftable) ⭐
+Re-architected into a layered SDK. Two strong **code** lifts that hit exactly where BooCoder's write/edit surface is weakest for local quantized models.
+
+| # | Finding | Evidence (HEAD `31a118f`) | Verdict | Maps to |
+|---|---------|---------|---------|---------|
+| 5d | **`git stash create` + private-ref checkpoint** — per-turn snapshot of full dirty worktree, GC-safe, invisible to `git stash list`, restorable with conversation-trim in sync | `sdk/packages/core/src/hooks/checkpoint-hooks.ts:177-253`; `session/checkpoint-restore.ts:161-189` | **LIFT · code+pattern** (#4) | checkpoint/restore — captures **external-agent** edits BooCode's `rewind` can't |

+
+Ruled out: prompt-caching (Anthropic `cache_control` markers — N-A, llama.cpp auto-prefix-caches), stream retry (delegated to AI SDK — same as BooCode), MCP marketplace, hub/daemon (multi-client — BooCode is single-process).
+
+### 5f. qwen-code (`QwenLM/qwen-code` v0.17.0, **Apache-2.0** — code-liftable) ⭐
+**The "qwen = one-shot PTY because ACP was HTTP-only" premise is obsolete.** qwen now ships a full stdio-ACP agent, a `qwen serve` HTTP+SSE daemon, and a Claude-Code-compatible stream-json protocol.
+
+| # | Finding | Evidence | Verdict | Maps to |
+|---|---------|---------|---------|---------|
+| | **Warm `qwen --acp` is real** — multi-session `Map<sessionId,Session>`, `loadSession`/`unstable_resumeSession`, `setSessionMode`/`unstable_setSessionModel`, stdio NDJSON via `@agentclientprotocol/sdk` | `packages/cli/src/acp-integration/acpAgent.ts:308,322-351,384-568` | CROSS-CHECK → **LIFT · pattern** (#2) | **v2.6 Phase 2** — validates the openspec plan; wire goose/qwen to `acp-dispatch.ts` |
+| 5g | **stream-json = Claude-compatible NDJSON** (`system`/`assistant`/`result`/`stream_event` with `content_block_delta` text/thinking/tool deltas, `usage`, `session_id`) — BooCode **parses none of it** (`dispatcher.ts:406` slices stdout opaque) | `nonInteractive/types.ts:88-262`, `StreamJsonOutputAdapter.ts` | **LIFT · pattern** (#7) | one parser serves qwen **and** claude PTY fallbacks |
+| | **Resume primitives** `--resume <uuid\|title>` / `--continue` / `--session-id <uuid>` / `--fork-session` | `config/config.ts:825-985,1668-1721` | LIFT · config | mint a stable per-`(chat,agent)` UUID; parity with claude `--resume` |
+| | `qwen serve` daemon + `@qwen-code/sdk` (HTTP+SSE, **`Last-Event-ID` replay ring**, better than opencode's SSE) | `commands/serve.ts:51-266`; `packages/sdk-typescript/src/daemon/*` | TRACK | stdio-ACP is cheaper now; mine its SSE-reconnect design when hardening opencode SSE (converges w/ openchamber 5c) |
+
+Note: BooCode ships `@agentclientprotocol/sdk@^0.22.1` (newer than qwen's `^0.14.1`) — same package family, BooCode ahead; **cross-check the v0.14↔v0.22 `initialize`/capability handshake before relying on `unstable_resumeSession`** (the `unstable_` prefix signals churn). Ruled out: the `rewind` commit (`c699738`) is a qwen-TUI history-count fix, not a wire event — N-A.
+
+### 5h. happy (`slopus/happy`, **MIT** — code-liftable) ⭐
+Mobile/remote client that drives **Claude Code** via the **`@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk`** (NOT PTY). A working existence-proof for BooCode's claude SDK-vs-PTY decision.

+|---|---------|---------|---------|---------|
+| 5j | **Universal-agent lifecycle hooks → normalized status** — inject a notify hook into each agent's native config (`~/.claude/settings.json`, `~/.codex/hooks.json`, opencode plugin), POST `{terminalId,eventType,agent}`; server collapses ~30 vendor event names → 5 states | `apps/desktop/.../agent-setup/*`, `templates/notify-hook.template.sh`, `host-service/.../map-event-type.ts` | **RE-DERIVE** (#10) | gives BooCode's **PTY agents (goose/qwen/claude) real working/blocked/done state** it lacks today |

+| | Diff-line → agent-comment re-prompt loop (select lines → send to existing session or new agent) | `apps/desktop/.../DiffPane/AgentCommentComposer/*` | RE-DERIVE | review/diff UX frontier |
+
+Ruled out: token/cost (superset tracks **none** — BooCode ahead), permission cards (BooCode's intercept-and-render is richer; superset just chimes + bypass-flags the agent), editor↔agent protocol (there is none), all SaaS/cloud/billing plumbing.
+
+### 5k. unsloth (`unslothai/unsloth`) — **decision-settling: CONFIRMED AGPL-3.0-only**
+The lifted parser + HTML→MD converter ARE AGPL-3.0; the v2 clean-room recommendation stands. Unsloth is **dual-licensed**: core `unsloth/` lib = Apache-2.0 (`LICENSE`, `pyproject.toml`), but the `studio/` subtree = **AGPL-3.0-only** — dedicated `studio/LICENSE.AGPL-3.0`, `studio/package.json` `"license":"AGPL-3.0-only"`, README §line 262 carves Studio out explicitly, and **both lifted files carry per-file SPDX headers** (`studio/backend/core/inference/{tool_call_parser.py,_html_to_md.py}` → `# SPDX-License-Identifier: AGPL-3.0-only`). BooCode's ports already carry the AGPL SPDX header (obligation on-record). Network-served ⇒ **AGPL §13 network-copyleft is the live liability.** HTML→MD can be replaced outright by a permissive lib (turndown / node-html-markdown); the tool-call parser needs a clean-room rewrite from spec (the `<tool_call>`/`<function=>` grammar is short and re-derivable).
+
+### 5l. conductor (`conductor-oss/conductor`, **Apache-2.0**, Java) — **LOW / near-NONE**
+Confirmed **Netflix/Orkes Conductor** — enterprise distributed workflow engine (5600 commits, Spring/Flyway/Cassandra), **not** the Mac Claude-Code app. Wrong scale + wrong substrate (polling workers + Redis queues vs BooCode's single-user Postgres LISTEN/NOTIFY), and BooCode already sourced its task-DAG/dispatcher/pipelines/human_inbox from `agent-hub` + Roo Boomerang. **One** worth-a-glance reference: the **retry/backoff/timeout taxonomy** (`TaskDef.java` `RetryLogic{FIXED,LINEAR,EXP}` + `TimeoutPolicy`, delay formula in `DeciderService.java:634-680`, with jitter + total-time-budget guard) — BooCode has **no retries today**; copy the *field set + three formulas* when retries land. Everything else (decider-replay engine, 24 task mappers, fork-join, sub-workflow, human-task) = N-A, already-covered or wrong-scale.
+
+### 5m. ACP provider candidates — amp-acp **SKIP**, pi-acp **WATCH**
+Both are config-only adds to BooCode's v2.3 catalog (`{extends:'acp', label, command, env}`) and both use **`@agentclientprotocol/sdk@~0.22/0.12`, proto v1 — wire-compatible with BooCode's own `@agentclientprotocol/sdk@0.22.1`** (see correction in §6).
+- **amp-acp** (`tao12345666333/amp-acp`, Apache-2.0): adapter for Sourcegraph **Amp**. `npx -y amp-acp` + `AMP_API_KEY`. **SKIP** — Amp is a **paid cloud product with no self-host / no BYO-key / no local-model path**; can't point at llama-swap. Keep only as the canonical *"does add-from-catalog work"* smoke entry (lowest-risk Apache-2.0 ACP adapter).
+- **pi-acp** (`svkozak/pi-acp`, MIT): bridge for **pi** (spawns `pi --mode rpc`). `npx -y pi-acp`, pi free + self-hostable, dynamic model discovery. **WATCH** — but found **no evidence pi supports an OpenAI-compatible/llama-swap base URL** (cloud BYO-keys only today) + v0.0.27 maturity ("MVP", MCP not wired). Re-evaluate if pi adds a local provider — then it's a strong config-only ADD.
+
+### 5n. claude-code & goose — low/cosmetic
+- **claude-code** (`anthropics/claude-code`, depth-1): the public **issue-tracker/docs repo, not source.** Thin. No stream-json schema doc (keep relying on observed output). Notables: `CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID` env injected into Bash-tool subprocesses (hook↔session correlation); `examples/settings/*.json` permission/sandbox shapes; `SKILL.md` frontmatter is simpler (`name/description/version`) than BooCode's `eval.yaml`. The one example hook (`bash_command_validator`) is the same family BooCode already vendored. **Nothing net-new liftable.**
+- **goose** (`block/goose`, depth-1, Apache-2.0 Rust → pattern-only): the **AAIF/Linux-Foundation move is cosmetic** — binary `goose`, `goose acp` invocation, and `~/.config/goose/` config path all **UNCHANGED**; only org/URLs changed (`block/goose` → `aaif-goose/goose`). **Watch:** grep BooCode install docs for `block/goose` URLs (will eventually 404). **For v2.6 Phase 2:** goose ACP supports multi-session + mid-session model/mode switch + session persistence, but **no `loadSession`/resume method surfaced** → cross-restart resume looks thinner than opencode's; don't assume opencode-style `agent_sessions` resume works identically for goose.
+
+-----
+
+## 6. Open decisions / things to think about
+
+1. **The jinja gate (blocks #1, the top item).** Is `--jinja` + a qwen3.x template live in the llama-swap/sidecar model config? Read-only to answer, but the config may live with the sidecar on sam-desktop (`100.101.41.16`) — needs Sam's OK before any SSH. *This single check decides whether the AGPL-parser retirement is actionable now or needs a config change first.*
+2. **Claude transport: SDK vs PTY — now evidenced, leaning SDK.** `happy` (§5h) is a working existence-proof that `@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk` in streaming-input mode drives Claude Code with structured events (tool calls, reasoning, `system/init` tool/skill/mcp lists, usage) and clean continuity — richer than PTY stdout-scraping. **Decision narrowed to: adopt the SDK** (net-new integration, ~100-line streaming-input pump) **vs. stay PTY + just add `--resume`.** Independent of warm-ACP Phase 2. Note the continuity mechanism (§5i hook + jsonl-watcher → `claudeSessionId`) is **transport-independent**, so ship it either way.
+3. **`stream-json` parser is shared infrastructure, not a per-agent chore.** qwen-code (§5g) and claude-code emit the *same* Claude-Code-compatible NDJSON. One parser keyed on `type` / `stream_event.event.type` unlocks tool/reasoning/usage surfacing for **both** qwen and claude PTY fallbacks (today both are sliced opaque). Decide whether to build it as a shared module now (cheap) rather than twice later.
+4. **Transcript/session verification before resume (shared gap).** Neither Paseo nor BooCode (nor openchamber, nor goose's ACP) verifies the session/transcript exists on disk before resuming — true for opencode, claude, qwen. Folds into v2.6 Phase 3 (crash recovery + active supervision, now lifting from openchamber §5c). Decide whether "resume blindly, recover on failure" is good enough for single-user, or worth a pre-resume existence check. **Caveat:** goose ACP exposes no `loadSession`/resume (§5n) → its cross-restart resume needs a different design than opencode's.
+5. **Usage *and status* normalization scope.** Two converging gaps: (a) **tokens/cost** — the opencode token slice (#8) converges with paseo `AgentUsage`; (b) **liveness/status** — superset's notify-hook pattern (§5j, #10) is the only way to know whether a one-shot PTY agent (goose/qwen/claude) is working / blocked-on-permission / done. Decide whether to design one normalized per-`(chat,agent)` "agent telemetry" shape (tokens + status) up front so all providers slot in, or ship opencode-token-only and generalize at Phase 2.
+6. **Correction — ACP SDK package.** This doc and the roadmap state BooCode uses `@zed-industries/agent-client-protocol`; the live `apps/coder/package.json` actually declares **`@agentclientprotocol/sdk@^0.22.1`** (verified installed). Both amp-acp and pi-acp use the same package, so the "version-drift" worry is moot. Worth correcting in `boocode_roadmap.md`'s lift table on the next pass.
+
+-----
+
+## 7. Housekeeping
+
+- **Stale `.bak` in the working tree:** `apps/server/src/services/inference/tool-phase.ts.bak-20260531` (today, 15.5 KB). Violates CLAUDE.md's "don't accumulate `.bak-*`". Dated today and `tool-phase.ts` is on the active path — may be an in-progress safety copy. **Confirm before removing.**
+- **Unshallow `/opt/forks/llama.cpp`** (`git fetch --unshallow`) before the next review so commit-level attribution is possible. (opencode was unshallowed mid-review; cline/qwen-code/amp-acp/pi-acp/claude-code/goose/unsloth remain shallow but their source was intact.)
+- **Grep BooCode install docs/scripts for `block/goose` URLs** — goose moved to `aaif-goose/goose` (§5n); old release URLs will eventually 404.
+- **Correct the ACP-SDK package name** in `boocode_roadmap.md`'s lift table → `@agentclientprotocol/sdk@0.22.1` (§6.6).

+| **v2.6 Phase 3** (lifecycle hardening) | **#5 openchamber lifecycle hardening** (health monitor + crash restart + port reclaim + stall-SSE — §5c, supersedes the paseo re-derive); worktree-archive cascade (paseo) + superset destroy-saga (§5j); LRU-bound caches; pre-resume session verification |
+| **v2.6 Phase 1 UX** | #6 interrupt-bug fix; #8 opencode token/ctx usage; richer SSE arms (compaction surfacing) |
+| **Write/edit robustness (NEW batch)** | **#3 fuzzy patch applier** + **#4 git-stash checkpoint** (cline §5b) — both directly harden BooCoder's edit/rewind surface for local models |
+| **Cross-agent telemetry (NEW)** | #10 superset notify-hook → normalized **status** for PTY agents (§5j); pairs with #8 token usage |
+| **Standalone claude-provider batch** | #9 `--resume` via hook/jsonl-watcher (§5i) + the SDK-vs-PTY decision (now lean-SDK, §6.2); #12 MistakeTracker + file-provenance ledger (cline) |
+| **Inference / license-debt batch** | #1 AGPL parser retirement (**AGPL confirmed §5k**; gated on the jinja check §6.1); #11 sampling/reasoning-budget config adopts |
+| **BooChat resilience (opportunistic)** | stall-timeout + retry/backoff (opencode); tool-pair-atomic prune cross-check (cline §5b) |
+| **Provider catalog** | amp-acp = keep as add-from-catalog **smoke test only** (§5m); pi-acp = WATCH for a local-provider mode |
+| **Deferred / gated** | subagent permission demux (needs opencode-SSE permission cards first); MCP auth lock (needs OAuth MCP un-deferred); `qwen serve` HTTP backend (stdio-ACP cheaper) |
+| **Not actionable** | conductor (wrong scale — only the retry-taxonomy reference §5l); claude-code public repo (docs only §5n) |

+## Shipped (v2.2.2–v2.6.4 — interactive ACP, provider lifecycle, persistent agent sessions)
+
+All tags `vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH-slug`, monotonic per minor, assigned at ship time (planning slugs differ — see the numbering-discipline note below). `CHANGELOG.md` is the canonical per-tag record. **Note on numbering divergence:** the *planned-feature* "v2.3 — Provider lifecycle" actually shipped under the **v2.5.4–v2.5.13** tags; the *planned-feature* "v2.4 — BooCoder as ACP agent" remains **unshipped** even though v2.4.0/v2.4.1 *tags* shipped unrelated content (Unsloth lifts, sidecar routing). The patch-tag thread and the conceptual-milestone thread have diverged — read tags as the ship record, the `## v2.x` feature sections below as the milestone plan. The v2.3.0–v2.5.1 tags were never CHANGELOG-backfilled; summarized here from commit bodies.
+
+- `v2.2.2-xml-placeholder-reject` — reject placeholder XML tool args (`...`, `<path>`, empty/whitespace, angle-bracket sentinels) at parse time; appends raw block to prose instead of silent-deleting. Fixes qwen3.6 answer-then-spurious-tools duplicate-row tail
+- `v2.3.0-sampling-params-ask-user` — per-agent sampling params (`top_p`/`top_k`/`min_p`/`presence_penalty`) in AGENTS.md frontmatter threaded through inference (null = omit, preserve provider default); `ask_user_input` interactive card wired into both BooCoder frontends (CoderPane + standalone coder SPA)
+- `v2.3.1-permission-questions` — enrich ACP `permission_requested` frame with `kind` (`tool`|`question`|`plan`|`elicitation`) + `input` + `description`; PermissionCard renders interactive radio/checkbox forms for AskUserQuestion; ACP `createElicitation` (experimental) JSON-Schema-driven forms
+- `v2.3.2-coder-answer-endpoint` — fix `ask_user_input` submit in CoderPane (register `answer_user_input` on the boocoder service; `apiPrefix` routes through `/api/coder/...` so the right inference runner picks up the answer)
+- `v2.4.0-unsloth-studio-lift` — port of Unsloth Studio modules: `tool-call-parser.ts` (replaces `xml-parser.ts`; balanced-brace JSON scanner, `hasToolSignal`/`stripToolMarkup`/`parseToolCallsFromText`, stripping at all 3 final-write sites) + `web/html-to-md.ts` (parse5 HTML→Markdown for `web_fetch`). **License flag:** Unsloth Studio is AGPL-3.0 — tension with the roadmap's MIT / no-AGPL-code-lift commitment; revisit before any network-served distribution
+- `v2.4.1-sidecar-routing` — route per-agent `llama_extra_args` to `LLAMA_SIDECAR_URL` via `X-Agent-Flags` (boot guard if set but URL unset); `resolveRoute` + PrefixFingerprint `route` field. AGENTS.md tool-gap fix: 8 post-hoc tools (`request_read_access`, `view_truncated_output`, `ask_user_input`, `git_status`, …) added to every agent's whitelist
+- `v2.5.0-task-model` — lightweight task-model services (`TASK_MODEL_URL` dedicated llama-server, falls back to `LLAMA_SWAP_URL`+`FAST_MODEL`) for auto-naming/search-rewrite/tags/summaries; search-query rewriting on step 0 when web tools enabled; `sessions.tags` column
+- `v2.5.1-budget-100` — tool-call budgets raised 50/10/50 → **100/100/100** (read-only / non-read-only / no-agent); per-agent `max_tool_calls` still overrides. `.claude/worktrees/` added to `.codecontextignore`
+- `v2.5.2-coder-ux-fixes` — dispatcher reacts immediately via Postgres `LISTEN/NOTIFY` (`tasks_new` trigger, 2s poll fallback); mobile nav-drawer bfcache fix (`useViewport` re-syncs on `pageshow`/`visibilitychange`); reasoning "Thinking" collapsible in MessageBubble (ACP `agent_thought_chunk` + native `reasoning_parts`); paste-to-chip verbatim; "New file from pasted text" RightRail affordance; DiffPanel approve/reject repointed to real routes. Ships the `v2-6-persistent-agent-sessions` openspec as planning docs only
+- `v2.5.3-remove-cursor-copilot` — retire cursor + copilot providers entirely (argv cases, manifest, command maps, cursor model-CLI branch, `cursor-models.ts`). Built-ins now: claude, opencode, goose, qwen, native boocode
+- `v2.5.4-provider-lifecycle-phase1` — **(v2.3 milestone, phase 1/5)** config-backed provider layer (`CODER_PROVIDERS_PATH` default `/data/coder-providers.json`; `provider-config.ts` never-throws loader; `buildResolvedRegistry` merge) over built-ins; `agent-probe` iterates the resolved registry. No runtime change when no config file exists
+- `v2.5.5-provider-lifecycle-phase2` — **(phase 2/5)** snapshot lifecycle status (`loading`|`ready`|`unavailable`|`error`) + `enabled` flag; always lists every registered provider; two-tier probe (fast `which` vs cold ACP, skipped unless forced / `PROVIDER_PROBE_TTL_MS` 24h stale / DB-empty); `provider-types-parity.test.ts`
+- `v2.5.6-provider-lifecycle-phase3` — **(phase 3/5)** generic ACP dispatch (`resolveLaunchSpec` from config `launchCommand`; spawn `spec.binary`/`args`/`env`); built-in dispatch byte-identical (regression-tested). Config-defined custom ACP providers dispatch with no new switch case
+- `v2.5.7-claude-models-and-picker-fix` — fix the empty provider picker (a v2.5.5 regression: `getProviderSnapshot` returned sync `loading` entries the composer filtered out → now awaits build, returns terminal entries); wire config `models` (replace) / `additionalModels` (merge); claude static models bumped to opus/sonnet/haiku latest-aliases + pinned full names
+- `v2.5.8-mobile-composer-row` — AgentComposerBar mobile fix (dot + refresh as one right-aligned unit, was wrapping); Mode picker icon-only on mobile via `CompactPicker` `iconOnly`. Desktop unchanged
+- `v2.5.9-agent-slash-commands` — segmented per-agent slash menu (active agent's commands first, BooCoder skills second; opt-in `groups` prop, BooChat flat path byte-identical); skills now run under the selected external agent (skill body injected into a dispatched task); landing-chat skill-invoke fix
+- `v2.5.10-opencode-live-commands` — capture opencode's live ACP `available_commands` (poll for the async `available_commands_update`, was racing to 0); persist to new `available_agents.commands` JSONB; serve merged on the tier-2-probe-skip path
+- `v2.5.11-claude-skill-discovery` — surface Claude Code's real enabled commands + plugin skills in the coder slash menu (`claude-command-discovery.ts` reads `~/.claude/commands` + `enabledPlugins` skills/commands); three icon'd groups (agent commands / agent skills / BooCoder skills); `AgentCommand.kind`
+- `v2.5.12-provider-lifecycle-phase4` — **(phase 4/5)** HTTP API: `GET`/`PATCH /api/providers/config`, optional-subset `POST /refresh`, `GET /:id/diagnostic`. PATCH ordering validate→save→reload→clear (malformed body → 422 no-write; save-fail → 500 no-divergence); `mergeProviderConfigPatch`; +28 tests
+- `v2.5.13-provider-lifecycle-phase5` — **(phase 5/5, closes the v2.3 arc)** Settings → Providers UI (status badge, enable/disable toggle, per-provider refresh, plaintext diagnostic); composer filters to `enabled && ready|loading`; curated ACP catalog + `AddProviderModal`; two mobile fixes (Settings reachable on phones; modal scroll-containment). `docs/DEFERRED-WORK.md` §2 marked addressed
+- `v2.5.14-claude-md` — docs-only CLAUDE.md session-learnings (stale boocoder process after build, container `build:.` deploys working tree, wholesale `PATCH /providers/config` merge, one-shot external dispatch has no ctx tracking, `ui/` switch/sheet fallbacks, mobile Dialog scroll recipe); backfills v2.5.7–v2.5.11 doc bullets
+- `v2.5.15-acp-path-guard` — security: separator-bounded worktree path guard in `acp-client-fs.ts` (closes a sibling-prefix `<worktree>-evil/` escape; `writeWorktreeTextFile` bypasses `pending_changes`, writes disk directly) via shared `resolveInWorktree` + regression test; stop tracking live `data/coder-providers.json` (gitignore + `data/coder-providers.example.json` reference; loader falls back to built-ins-only)
+- `v2.6.0-phase0-foundations` — **(v2.6 Phase 0, no behavior change)** schema + interface scaffold: `session_worktrees` (one shared worktree per session) + `agent_sessions` (one backend session per `(session, agent)`) tables, `pending_changes.agent` attribution column; `AgentBackend`/`AgentSessionHandle` interface + normalized transport-agnostic `AgentEvent` union (types only)
+- `v2.6.1-phase1-opencode` — **(Phase 1)** opencode as a **warm HTTP server** (`opencode serve` per BooCoder process, one opencode session per BooCode session resumed across turns via `agent_sessions`); single SSE read loop, Paseo reasoning-dedup, inactivity watchdog, stale-session guard (`config_hash` = `opencode_server|<model>`, excludes the ephemeral port so cross-restart resume survives). Hard-won: opencode streams `session.next.*` (not `message.part.*`), `event.subscribe()` must pass the worktree `directory`, models must be `llama-swap/`-prefixed + in opencode's config. Bundled: dcp-message-id strip, reopen-pane control, `[+]`/split separation, auto-name on session model, `systematic-debugging` slash command. Known limit (closed in v2.6.2): single SSE scoped to the most-recent directory
+- `v2.6.2-delete-guard-and-sse` — session-delete work-loss guard (server gates `DELETE /api/sessions/:id`: reads `session_worktrees`, calls BooCoder `/worktree-risk` which runs git on the host; dirty/unpushed/unmerged → 409 + per-worktree `RiskReport[]`, `force` bypasses, fail-closed; sidebar block dialog distinguishes at-risk from couldn't-verify, never auto-commits). **Per-session SSE (P1.5-a):** one `event.subscribe({directory})` per live opencode session, each with an `AbortController`, so sessions in different worktrees stream concurrently (was: second silently dropped); `sessionID` demux guard + zombie-loop fix
+- `v2.6.3-chatkey-and-skills` — re-key `agent_sessions` to **`(chat_id, agent)`** (P1.5-b: the tab/chat is the agent-context unit; two opencode tabs in one session = two contexts sharing one worktree); `tasks.chat_id` threaded end-to-end (`runOpenCodeServerTask` resolve-or-creates a chat for session-less creators); first-class `worktrees` table (one-per-session, survives session delete) supersedes the defanged `session_worktrees`; `agent_sessions.chat_id` CASCADEs from `chats`; stateful cross-chunk dcp-message-id stripper; `committing-changes` + `using-worktrees` judgment skills in `data/skills/boocode/` + parser-safe `data/AGENTS.md` preamble
+- `v2.6.4-agent-sessions-fk` — converge the live `agent_sessions.session_id` FK `CASCADE → SET NULL` (standalone `confdeltype`-guarded `DO` block, idempotent — the P1.5-b re-key gate skipped already-re-keyed DBs and left it diverged); CLAUDE.md doc-sync (per-session SSE, `(chat_id, agent)` re-key, `data/AGENTS.md` parsing + `data/skills/<vendor>/` conventions)

 ## v2.3 — Provider lifecycle (Paseo-style registry)

+## v2.6 — Persistent agent sessions (warm processes + OpenCode server)
+
+**Goal:** make a BooCode chat map to a **persistent agent backend + a persistent worktree** that live for the whole conversation, so turns are warm and the agent sees its own accumulating edits. Replaces the one-shot-per-task model (fresh worktree + process spawn + ACP handshake every turn) with Paseo's pattern: OpenCode as a long-lived HTTP server, goose/qwen as warm stdio-ACP processes. Reasoning passthrough was already solved in v2.5.2's Thinking block — this batch is about persistence, not capability.
+
+**Decisions locked:** persistent worktree per session (shared across agents); free agent-switch with per-agent memory (one backend session per `(chat, agent)` pair, re-keyed from `(session, agent)` in P1.5-b); OpenCode → one shared `opencode serve` HTTP server (multi-session, directory-routed); goose/qwen → warm stdio ACP per live session; claude stays one-shot PTY.
+
+**Shipped so far:**
+
+1. `v2.6.0-phase0-foundations` ✅ — schema + `AgentBackend`/`AgentEvent` interface scaffold (no behavior change).
+1. `v2.6.1-phase1-opencode` ✅ — OpenCode warm-server backend, per-chat resumable session, SSE demux, reasoning dedup, watchdog, stale-session guard.
+1. `v2.6.2-delete-guard-and-sse` ✅ — session-delete work-loss guard + **per-session SSE (P1.5-a)** so concurrent opencode sessions in different worktrees stream independently.
+1. `v2.6.3-chatkey-and-skills` ✅ — **P1.5-b** re-key `agent_sessions` to `(chat_id, agent)`; first-class `worktrees` table; `tasks.chat_id` threading; cross-chunk dcp-strip; judgment skills.
+1. `v2.6.4-agent-sessions-fk` ✅ — converge `agent_sessions.session_id` FK to `SET NULL`; doc-sync.
+
+**Remaining (per openspec `v2-6-persistent-agent-sessions/tasks.md`):**
+
+- **Phase 1 UX** — DiffPanel per-change agent attribution (`pending_changes.agent` badges), resumed/new-session chip on AgentComposerBar (`GET /api/sessions/:id/agent-sessions`), staging-boundary hint.
+- **Phase 2 — warm ACP backend (goose, qwen)** — persistent `SpawnedACPProcess` connection reused across turns (one `session/new`, many prompts); dispatcher routes goose/qwen to the warm backend; switch round-trip smoke (opencode → boocode → opencode resumes the same session).
+- **Phase 3 — lifecycle hardening** — idle TTL eviction per `(chat, agent)`, crash recovery, chat-close/archive worktree cleanup, orphan reaper + max-live-worktrees LRU cap, re-baseline diff after `apply_pending`, reconnect test.
+
+**Lift sources:** `getpaseo/paseo` (design only — OpenCode-as-HTTP-server pattern, `streamedPartKeys` reasoning dedup), `@opencode-ai/sdk` (v2 client), `/opt/forks/opencode`.
+
+**Dependencies:** v2.2 (ACP dispatch) + v2.3 provider lifecycle (registry/snapshot). Openspec: `openspec/changes/v2-6-persistent-agent-sessions/`.

 ## v2.1.0 — Provider picker + model discovery
 
 **Shipped `v2.1.0-provider-picker`.** Provider registry with 5 providers (boocode, opencode, goose, claude, qwen). Model discovery via `LLAMA_SWAP_URL/upstream/<model>/props`. `/api/providers` route returns installed providers with models. v2.1 `ProviderPicker` UI **superseded by `AgentComposerBar` in v2.2.** Agent-probe startup probe discovers installed agents on host, their versions, ACP support, and models.

 - **Protocol-level Paseo equivalence (shipped v2.2):** the ACP client + MCP server combination in BooCoder is the protocol-spelled version of Paseo's daemon. ACP gives multi-agent dispatch with structured events instead of free-form PTY output. MCP server gives BooCoder-as-task-board, callable from any MCP client (Termius-based opencode, future editors).
