v1.1 batch 2: sidebar restructure — chats under projects, max 5 + view-all, live updates
indifferentketchup released this
2026-05-15 14:19:59 +00:00 | 222 commits to main since this releaseSchema (idempotent):
ALTER TABLE sessions ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS updated_at TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL DEFAULT clock_timestamp();
The column already exists from v1 (DEFAULT NOW()); ALTER is a no-op kept for
self-documentation. Explicit clock_timestamp() bumps now run wherever the
column actually matters — see services/inference.ts and routes/sessions.ts.Backend updated_at maintenance:
- services/inference.ts: after each terminal status UPDATE on the assistant
message (failure / tool-call complete / clean complete), also bump
sessions.updated_at = clock_timestamp() so the parent session jumps to
the top of recency ordering on every assistant turn. - routes/sessions.ts PATCH: NOW() → clock_timestamp() for consistency.
New endpoint GET /api/sidebar (routes/sidebar.ts):
{ projects: [{ id, name, recent_sessions[≤6], total_sessions }] }
One outer query for projects ordered added_at DESC; per-project Promise.all
over (recent_sessions LIMIT 6 ORDER BY updated_at DESC) and COUNT(*)::int.
Outer Promise.all parallelizes across projects. Two queries per project; the
composite idx_sessions_project(project_id, updated_at DESC) serves the inner
query. Auth via the global Remote-User hook. types/api.ts gains
SidebarSession / SidebarProject / SidebarResponse; index.ts wires the route.Frontend foundations:
- api/types.ts mirrors the three sidebar interfaces.
- api/client.ts: api.sidebar.get() → Promise.
- hooks/sessionEvents.ts: five-variant union — added project_created,
project_deleted, session_created, session_deleted. session_renamed
unchanged from Batch 1. Bus internals untouched (still a dumb
Set, no validation).
New hooks/useSidebar.ts (module-singleton):
- Module-scope sharedData/sharedError/sharedLoading/initialized/fetchInFlight/
subscribers; a single sessionEvents.subscribe at module-top-level mutates
sharedData via an exhaustive switch over the five events. load() dedupes
parallel calls via fetchInFlight. Hook is a thin subscription layer: any
number of mount points share state and the very first one triggers the
single GET /api/sidebar. Subsequent mounts read cached state synchronously
(no skeleton flash). Public shape: { data, error, loading, retry }. - Lift to module-scope was driven by the "ONE sidebar request on mount"
spec promise — both ProjectSidebar AND Home consume the hook now, and
they share the singleton.
Frontend UI:
- components/ProjectSidebar.tsx (rewrite, 234 lines): per-project chevron +
folder + name; chevron toggles expand, name navigates /project/:id.
Expanded → ≤5 sessions with MessageSquare + name + muted relTime()
timestamp. "View all (N)" link when total_sessions > 5, routing to
/project/:id. Active session row uses bg-sidebar-accent. Active project
always renders expanded (URL-derived: direct /project/:id or scan of
recent_sessions for /session/:id). Expanded ids persisted in
localStorage['boocode.sidebar.expanded'] with try/catch on both read and
write. Loading shows 4 muted-pulse skeleton blocks; empty + error +
retry button; error toast guarded by ref so it fires once per distinct
message and resets on recovery. Remove path calls api.projects.remove
directly + explicit project_deleted emit (replaced the prior
useProjects() dependency which fired a redundant /api/projects on
mount, violating the one-fetch promise). - components/AddProjectModal.tsx: captures returned Project and emits
project_created before onAdded() / onOpenChange(false). - pages/Project.tsx: emits session_created after create(); trash button is
now async with try/catch — emits session_deleted on success,
toast.error on failure. - pages/Home.tsx: switched from useProjects to useSidebar so loading /
fires exactly one /api/sidebar, with no parallel /api/projects. - pages/Session.tsx: manual inline rename now emits session_renamed on
the success path so the sidebar updates live without a refresh (also
fixes the regression made visible by Batch 2 — the sidebar caches
session names where the project page used to re-fetch on every visit).
useProjects.ts retains a project_deleted emit inside remove for any future
caller; no live consumer uses it (ProjectSidebar calls api.projects.remove
directly). Acknowledged dead code, to be removed in the next cleanup pass
along with three remaining NOW() → clock_timestamp() consistency flips at
routes/messages.ts:70, routes/messages.ts:127, and services/auto_name.ts:144.Cross-tab parity for session_created/session_deleted/project_created/
project_deleted is deferred — those events are tab-local in Batch 2 per
spec. session_renamed continues to propagate cross-tab via the existing
WS frame from Batch 1.Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) noreply@anthropic.com
