feat: sampling knobs + live PTY stream-json + token UI (v2.7.3)

Three small wins from boocode_code_review_v2 §1 #11/#7/#8.

#11 sampling knobs: top_n_sigma + dry_* family as first-class Agent fields,
threaded into the request body via providerOptions.openaiCompatible. Fixes a
latent bug — top_k (rejected by the AI-SDK provider) and min_p (never passed to
streamText) were dead on the wire; both now route through the same channel.
--reasoning-budget documented in data/AGENTS.md.

#7 live PTY stream-json: new stream-json-parser.ts line-buffers qwen/claude
NDJSON and emits text/reasoning/tool frames live + persists, with a fallback to
the old opaque slice. claude gets --output-format stream-json --verbose.

#8 token UI: agent_sessions input/output_tokens/cost now flow through the route
+ type and render beside the AgentComposerBar session chip.

Built by 3 parallel agents. Server 523 + coder 245 tests passing; builds + web
tsc clean. Builds on v2.7.2. openspec sampling-streamjson-tokens.

+## v2.7.3-sampling-streamjson-tokens — 2026-06-01
+
+Three small BooCode wins from `boocode_code_review_v2.md` §1 #11/#7/#8. **Sampling knobs:** per-agent `top_n_sigma` + the `dry_*` repetition family (`dry_multiplier`/`dry_base`/`dry_allowed_length`/`dry_penalty_last_n`) are now first-class Agent frontmatter fields, parsed in `agents.ts` and threaded into the llama-swap chat-completion body via `providerOptions.openaiCompatible` (the `@ai-sdk/openai-compatible` extra-body channel). This surfaced and fixed a **latent bug**: `top_k` (rejected by the AI-SDK provider as unsupported) and `min_p` (never passed to `streamText` at all) had been dead on the wire — no agent's `top_k`/`min_p` ever affected sampling; both now route through the same channel, so agents that set them will start using them. `--reasoning-budget` is documented in `data/AGENTS.md` (already works via `llama_extra_args`, permitted by the deny-list validator). **Live PTY stream-json:** qwen/claude PTY dispatch sliced stdout opaque; a new `stream-json-parser.ts` line-buffers the Claude-Code-compatible NDJSON and emits text/reasoning/tool frames live as they arrive (mirroring the ACP/opencode paths) + persists the structured parts, with a clean fallback to the old opaque slice when output isn't NDJSON (claude now runs `--output-format stream-json --verbose`). **Token UI:** the per-`(chat,agent)` `agent_sessions.input_tokens`/`output_tokens`/`cost` columns (accumulated since `v2.6.8` but dropped by the read route + wire type) now flow through and render condensed beside the AgentComposerBar session chip. Built by three parallel agents over disjoint subsystems; server 523 + coder 245 tests passing (incl. 11 new stream-json-parser + new agent-parse tests), all builds + web tsc clean. Builds on `v2.7.2-checkpoint-idor`; openspec `sampling-streamjson-tokens`. The qwen-vs-claude `usage` field names in #7 are best-guess pending a live smoke.
+
+## v2.7.2-checkpoint-idor — 2026-06-01
+
+Closes two IDOR authorization holes in the `v2.7.1-write-edit-robustness` checkpoint routes, flagged by the automated push security review. The `GET /api/sessions/:id/checkpoints?chat_id=` list route scoped its `chat_id` branch by `chat_id` alone — any session's `chat_id` would read its checkpoints; it now joins through `chats` and gates on `chats.session_id` (authoritative; `checkpoints.session_id` is a nullable denormalized hint). The `restoreCheckpoint` scope guard was fail-open — `cp.session_id && cp.session_id !== sessionId` fell through whenever the checkpoint's denormalized `session_id` was null, allowing a cross-session restore (worktree reset + transcript trim) — it now resolves the owning session via the checkpoint's chat and denies on any missing-or-mismatched row. A DB-integration regression covers the exact null-`session_id` cross-session case. Real-world blast radius is small (BooCoder is single-user behind Authelia on loopback), but both are genuine authorization bugs. Coder suite 234 passing (7/7 checkpoint tests incl. the regression against live postgres+git), typecheck clean. Hotfix on `v2.7.1-write-edit-robustness`.
+
 ## v2.7.1-write-edit-robustness — 2026-06-01
 
 Two BooCoder hardening features for local quantized models, algorithm-reimplemented (not vendored) from the cline findings in `boocode_code_review_v2.md` §1 #3/#4. **Fuzzy patch applier:** `edit_file`'s apply path was exact-`.includes`-or-throw + first-occurrence `.replace` (`pending_changes.ts`), so a qwen3.6 whitespace/indentation/unicode drift in `old_string` lost the edit; a new pure `fuzzy-match.ts` (`locateMatch`) now runs an exact → per-line-trim → unicode-canon (curly quotes/dashes/nbsp) → Levenshtein-≥0.66 ladder and returns the real file span, refusing multi-exact matches as ambiguous rather than silently editing the first. `applyOne`/`rewindOne` both use it. **Worktree checkpoints + conversation-trim:** `rewind` only reversed BooCode's own `pending_changes`, blind to what external agents (opencode/goose/qwen/claude) write directly into the session worktree — so a new `checkpoints` table + `checkpoints.ts` shadow-commit (tracked **and** untracked, captured via a temp-index `read-tree`/`add`/`write-tree`/`commit-tree` into a GC-safe `refs/boocode/checkpoints/<id>`) snapshots the worktree before each external-agent turn (hooked into all three dispatcher paths), anchored to the turn's assistant message. A new `POST /api/sessions/:id/checkpoints/:cid/restore` resets the worktree (`reset --hard` + `clean -fd`), trims the transcript past that message, and resets the `(chat,agent)` backend session so files, transcript, and agent context land consistent at the restore point; a per-message "Restore to here" affordance in `CoderMessageList` drives it. Built by three parallel agents over disjoint files; DB-integration testing caught a microsecond-`created_at` self-deletion bug in the later-checkpoint cleanup. Full coder suite 234 passing (incl. 17 fuzzy-match + 6 checkpoint tests), server+coder build + web tsc clean. Builds on `v2.7.0-mit`; openspec `write-edit-robustness`. Live host smoke (dispatcher hook + restore UI end-to-end) still to run.

+ * Claude-Code-compatible stream-json NDJSON parser (feature #7,
+ * openspec `sampling-streamjson-tokens`).
+ *
+ * qwen (`--output-format stream-json`) and claude (`--output-format stream-json`)
+ * both emit Claude-Code's stream-json NDJSON on stdout: one JSON object per line.
+ * This module turns that stream into the same transport-agnostic `AgentEvent`s the
+ * ACP / opencode-server backends emit, so the PTY dispatch path can publish live
+ * broker frames + persist structured parts instead of slicing stdout opaque.
+ *
+ * Two surfaces:
+ *  - `parseStreamJsonLine(line, state)` — PURE per-line mapping (unit-testable).
+ *    `state` is the caller-owned accumulator (open tool blocks + usage/session_id).
+ *  - `makeStreamJsonParser()` — a thin stateful wrapper holding the state, with a
+ *    `push(line)` that returns the events for that line and getters for the final
+ *    `usage` / `sessionId`.
+ *
+ * Defensive by contract: a non-JSON / partial / garbage line yields `[]` and never
+ * throws. Tool args (`input_json_delta`) arrive fragmented across many lines; we
+ * accumulate the partial JSON string per content-block index and only surface the
+ * parsed `rawInput` once the block stops (or, as a fallback, off the terminal
+ * `assistant` message which carries the fully-assembled `tool_use` blocks).
+ *
+ * Schema (keyed on top-level `type`):
+ *  - `system`     — init: { session_id, tools, ... }
+ *  - `assistant`  — { message: { content: [ {type:'text'|'thinking'|'tool_use', ...} ], usage? } }
+ *  - `user`       — tool results (ignored — diffing the worktree captures effects)
+ *  - `result`     — final: { usage: { input_tokens, output_tokens }, session_id? }
+ *  - `stream_event` — { event: { type, index?, content_block?, delta?, usage? } }
+ *      event.type:
+ *        content_block_start  — { index, content_block: {type, id?, name?} }
+ *        content_block_delta  — { index, delta: {type, text?|thinking?|partial_json?} }
+ *        content_block_stop   — { index }
+ *        message_delta        — { usage: { output_tokens } }

 **Worktrees** — Isolate work in a worktree when it is parallel to in-progress work, risky/experimental, a hotfix interrupting other work, or splits into independent units — just create when clear, propose in one line when ambiguous, skip quick/small single-stream work. Branch from a stable base (default branch); worktrees persist (never auto-remove or auto-merge); they isolate code state, not runtime (ports/DBs/services still collide). Full heuristic: invoke `using-worktrees`.
 
+**Sampling knobs** — Each `## Name` frontmatter block accepts these per-agent sampler fields, threaded into the llama-swap chat-completion request: `temperature`, `top_p`, `top_k`, `min_p`, `presence_penalty`, and (v2.6) `top_n_sigma`, `dry_multiplier`, `dry_base`, `dry_allowed_length`, `dry_penalty_last_n`. The `top_n_sigma` + `dry_*` repetition family curb the doom-loop-prone local model. Omit a field to leave it at the server default. Example: `top_n_sigma: 1.0`, `dry_multiplier: 0.8`, `dry_base: 1.75`, `dry_allowed_length: 2`, `dry_penalty_last_n: -1` (-1 = whole context).

+**Reasoning budget** — To cap a reasoning model's thinking tokens, pass `--reasoning-budget` through `llama_extra_args` (already permitted by the deny-list validator; routes the agent to llama-sidecar). Example frontmatter line: `llama_extra_args: ["--reasoning-budget", "2048"]`. This is a sidecar process flag, not a chat-completion body param — distinct from the sampling knobs above.

+# Small wins — sampling knobs + PTY stream-json + token UI
+
+**Status:** in progress (started 2026-06-01)
+**Source:** `boocode_code_review_v2.md` §1 #11 / #7 / #8 (config-adopt + qwen-code §5g + opencode §3 #4).
+
+Three independent BooCode improvements, disjoint subsystems (apps/server / apps/coder / apps/web).
+
+## #11 — New sampling knobs (apps/server)
+Per-agent `top_n_sigma` + the `dry_*` repetition family help the doom-loop-prone local model.
+Today the Agent type threads `temperature/top_p/top_k/min_p/presence_penalty` into the inference
+request (`stream-phase.ts:396–438`). Add `top_n_sigma`, `dry_multiplier`, `dry_base`,
+`dry_allowed_length`, `dry_penalty_last_n` as first-class Agent fields (`types/api.ts`), parse them in
+`agents.ts:parseFrontmatter` (same bounded per-field numeric pattern + out-of-range warn), and thread
+them into the request body **via the same mechanism `top_k`/`min_p` already use** (the agent must
+confirm whether that's an AI-SDK `providerOptions`/`extraBody` passthrough — these are llama.cpp
+extensions, not standard OpenAI fields — and ride it; surface it if `top_k`/`min_p` turn out to be
+silently dropped today). `--reasoning-budget` is a llama-server CLI flag already permitted by the
+deny-list validator, so it works via `llama_extra_args: ["--reasoning-budget","N"]` now — document it
+in `data/AGENTS.md`. apps/server only.
+
+## #7 — Live PTY stream-json NDJSON parsing (apps/coder)
+qwen/claude PTY dispatch slices stdout opaque (`dispatcher.ts` PTY path; qwen already runs
+`--output-format stream-json`). Add a parser for the Claude-Code-compatible NDJSON
+(`system`/`assistant`/`result`/`stream_event` → `content_block_delta` text/thinking/tool deltas +
+`usage` + `session_id`) that maps to the existing `AgentEvent` union (`agent-backend.ts`). **Live
+incremental** (decision 2026-06-01): line-buffer the PTY stdout `data` events, parse each complete
+NDJSON line as it arrives, and emit broker frames live (text/reasoning/tool) like the ACP/opencode
+paths — plus accumulate for `persistExternalAgentTurn`. claude gets `--output-format stream-json` too.
+One parser serves both (same schema). apps/coder only (`pty-dispatch.ts`, `dispatcher.ts`, new
+`stream-json-parser.ts` + test).
+
+## #8 — Surface opencode token usage (apps/coder route + apps/web)
+`agent_sessions.input_tokens/output_tokens/cost` are accumulated (v2.6.8) but the
+`GET /api/sessions/:id/agent-sessions` SELECT + the `AgentSessionInfo` type drop them. Add the 3
+columns to both, render condensed beside the existing session chip in `AgentComposerBar`
+(ChatThroughput styling: `tabular-nums`, muted, e.g. "12.4K in / 3.2K out / $0.25"). MUST NOT touch
+Sam's uncommitted WIP (`ChatTabBar`, `SessionLandingPage`, `Workspace`, `useWorkspacePanes`,
