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.

# BooCode v1.x — Roadmap
|
||
|
||
Last updated: 2026-05-16
|
||
|
||
## Overview
|
||
|
||
BooCode is a standalone code-chat tool at `/opt/boocode/`. Read-only by design — pick a project, chat with a local LLM that has file-inspection tools, get streaming responses over WebSocket.
|
||
|
||
Live at `https://code.indifferentketchup.com` (Caddy → Authelia → Tailscale → `100.114.205.53:9500`).
|
||
|
||
**Architectural commitments:**
|
||
|
||
- No embeddings. The model uses file-view tools (`view_file`, `list_dir`, `grep`, `find_files`) + sidecar analyzers (codecontext, codesight). Walked away from the RAG pipeline May 2026.
|
||
- Read-only in v1.x. Write tools land in BooCoder (separate container, post-v1.x).
|
||
- One Postgres (`boocode_db`), one frontend SPA, container-per-service for new capabilities.
|
||
|
||
External code lifted from / referenced in: see `boocode_code_review.md` for full inventory.

**Old Batch 12 (codebase indexer w/ Harrier embeddings) — REMOVED.** Replaced by Batch 11/11b sidecar approach. See `boocode_code_review.md` decisions log.
|
||
|
||
**Batch 9 reordered ahead of 5–8, 10.** Picker mounts in `ChatInput.tsx` toolbar only. SettingsDrawer agent entry rolled into Batch 7 when it lands. No UI dependency on Batches 5/6/7, so it can ship anytime after v1.6.2.
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
## Batch details (planned / new)
|
||
|
||
### Batch 9 — Agents (Tier 2, DECOUPLED)
|
||
|
||
**Spec:** `boocode_batch9.md` with the deltas below.
|
||
|
||
**Status:** Next up after v1.6.2 merges. Decoupled from Batch 7.
|
||
|
||
**Deltas from `boocode_batch9.md`:**
|
||
|
||
1. Builtin defaults in `agents.ts` OMIT the `model` field. Resolution order makes `session.model` win when `agent.model` is null. Spec line 30 example is misleading — do not hardcode any model in builtins.
|
||
2. Builtin defaults are the six agents shipped in `/opt/boocode/AGENTS.md`: **Code Reviewer, Debugger, Refactorer, Architect, Security Auditor, Prompt Builder.** If project root `AGENTS.md` exists, only its agents show. If absent, show the six builtins.
|
||
3. AgentPicker mounts in `ChatInput.tsx` toolbar between ModelPicker and the `+` button. **No `SettingsDrawer.tsx` or `Header.tsx` changes in this batch.**
|
||
4. SettingsDrawer agent entry + Header active-agent badge moved to Batch 7.
|
||
|
||
**Files to create:**
|
||
|
||
- `apps/server/src/services/agents.ts` — parser, six builtin defaults, mtime-keyed cache.
|
||
- `apps/server/src/routes/agents.ts` — `GET /api/projects/:id/agents`.
|
||
- `apps/web/src/components/AgentPicker.tsx` — dropdown, matches ModelPicker pattern.
|
||
|
||
**Files to modify:**
|
||
|
||
- `apps/server/src/schema.sql` — `ALTER TABLE sessions ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS agent_id TEXT;`
|
||
- `apps/server/src/services/inference.ts` — resolution order: `effective_system_prompt`, `effective_model`, `effective_temperature`, `effective_tools` from session + agent + project. Filter tools array against agent whitelist before sending to llama-swap.
|
||
- `apps/server/src/routes/sessions.ts` — PATCH accepts `agent_id`.
|
||
- `apps/server/src/types/api.ts` — Agent type, extend Session with `agent_id`.
|
||
- `apps/web/src/api/client.ts`, `apps/web/src/api/types.ts` — Agent type, `api.agents.list(projectId)`.
|
||
- `apps/web/src/components/ChatInput.tsx` — mount AgentPicker.
|
||
|
||
**Testing plan (manual, before locking temps):**
|
||
|
||
- Drop `/opt/boocode/AGENTS.md` (six agents, no `model` field on any).
|
||
- For each of the 7 keeper models, switch session model and run the same target prompt against each agent. Log tok/s, instruction-following quality.
|
||
- Adjust per-agent temperature in `AGENTS.md` based on results.
|
||
- A/B candidates: qwen3.6-35b-a3b-mxfp4 (daily), qwopus3.6-35b-a3b-q4 (reasoning), qwopus3.5-27b-q4, qwen3.6-27b-ud-q4-xl, nemotron-3-nano-30b, gemma-4-26b-a4b-mxfp4, qwen3-coder-30b-apex.
|
||
|
||
**Dependencies:** v1.6.2 merged.
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
### Batch 11 — Architect: codebase map (REVISED)
|
||
|
||
**Inspiration / lift:** `nmakod/codecontext` (MIT, Go binary).
|
||
|
||
**What it gives BooCode:** an architect-grade codebase overview without embeddings. Codecontext parses the repo with tree-sitter, extracts symbols, builds import/dependency relationships, and exposes the result via an MCP server with 8 tools. The model gets a structural map of any codebase on demand.
|
||
|
||
**Why this replaces the original Batch 11 (aider PageRank port):** codecontext is a finished binary in our stack language (Go), with watch mode, incremental updates, framework detection, and git-co-change-based semantic neighborhoods (no embeddings). The aider port would be reimplementing what codecontext already ships.
|
||
|
||
**Scope:**
|
||
|
||
- Add `codecontext` sidecar container to `docker-compose.yml`. Mount the project root read-only. One sidecar per BooCode instance — projects are addressed by absolute path.
|
||
- Wire each codecontext MCP tool into BooCode’s `inference/tools.ts` as a native tool the model can call:
|
||
- `repo_overview(project_id)` → codecontext `get_codebase_overview`
|
||
- `repo_file_analysis(project_id, path)` → `get_file_analysis`
|
||
- `repo_symbol_info(project_id, symbol)` → `get_symbol_info`
|
||
- `repo_search_symbols(project_id, query)` → `search_symbols`
|
||
- `repo_dependencies(project_id, path)` → `get_dependencies`
|
||
- `repo_semantic_neighborhoods(project_id, path)` → `get_semantic_neighborhoods` (git co-change)
|
||
- `repo_framework_analysis(project_id)` → `get_framework_analysis`
|
||
- `path_guard.ts` extension: incorporate `continuedev/continue` `DEFAULT_SECURITY_IGNORE_FILETYPES` so codecontext can’t surface `.env`, `.pem`, keys, etc.
|
||
- Fallback grammars: drop `Aider-AI/aider`‘s `aider/queries/tree-sitter-*.scm` files for any language codecontext doesn’t cover. Use them via an in-process tree-sitter wrapper *only if* a project needs an unsupported language. Defer wrapper build until that’s an actual gap.
|
||
|
||
**Where it goes:** new `apps/server/src/architect/` directory. No new tables — codecontext maintains its own state on disk. New env: `CODECONTEXT_URL=http://codecontext:8765` (MCP endpoint).
|
||
|
||
**Decisions to make at recon time:**
|
||
|
||
- Bundle the binary directly in the BooCode Dockerfile, or run codecontext as its own service? Sidecar is cleaner. Bundle is one less container.
|
||
- How does the model discover codecontext tools — register them statically in the tools registry, or proxy MCP `tools/list` at startup?
|
||
|
||
**Dependencies:** none. Can ship before Batches 5–10.
|
||
|
||
-----
|
||
|
||
### Batch 11b — Architect: repo health (NEW)
|
||
|
||
**Inspiration / lift:** `spirituslab/codesight` (MIT-ish, TS/Node).
|
||
|
||
**What it gives BooCode:** complement to Batch 11. Where codecontext answers “what is this codebase,” repo health answers “what’s wrong with this codebase.” Call graph, circular dependency detection, dead code flagging.
|
||
|
||
**Scope:**
|
||
|
||
- Port codesight’s `analyze.mjs` analyzer core into `apps/server/src/architect/repo_health.ts`. Drop the VS Code extension shell. Keep:
|
||
- Symbol extraction (already overlaps codecontext — call codecontext where possible, only redo what’s needed for graph edges).
|
||
- Call graph builder (function-to-function edges).
|
||
- Circular dependency detector.
|
||
- Dead code detector (exported symbols never imported or called).
|
||
- New tool: `repo_health(project_id)` returning `{ circular_dependencies: [...], dead_code: [...] }`. Output respects codesight’s documented false-positive caveats (customElements.define, framework entry points, dynamic imports) — surface those in the tool description so the model doesn’t trust dead-code flags blindly.
|
||
- Cache results in `boocode_db` keyed by `(project_id, file_hashes)`. Invalidate on file change via file-index hash check.
|
||
|
||
**Decisions:**
|
||
|
||
- Build it in-process (Node) vs spawn a CLI? In-process is simpler. Spawn matches codecontext sidecar pattern but adds latency.
|
||
|
||
**Dependencies:** Batch 11 merged (so we can reuse codecontext’s parse output where possible). Can be deferred until after Batches 5–10.
|
||
|
||
-----
|
||
|
||
### Batch 12 — Tool approval gating + plan/act mode
|
||
|
||
**Inspiration / lift:** `cline/cline` (Apache-2.0).
|
||
|
||
**What it gives BooCode:** per-session control over which tools the model can call. Lays the groundwork for BooCoder by building the gating mechanism before there are any write tools to gate.
|
||
|
||
**Scope:**
|
||
|
||
- New column `sessions.tool_approval_mode TEXT` — values: `read_only` (v1.x default), `plan`, `act_auto`, `act_approve`.
|
||
- New column `sessions.approved_tools JSONB` — per-session whitelist for `act_approve` mode.
|
||
- Tool registry refactor: tools tagged `read_only` or `write`. In `read_only` mode (v1.x), write tools never appear in the model’s tools array. In `plan` mode, same — write tools hidden, model produces a plan only. `act_*` modes unlock writes (post-v1.x).
|
||
- UI: mode picker in SettingsDrawer (Batch 7 dependency). Inline indicator in chat header.
|
||
|
||
**Dependencies:** Batch 7 (SettingsDrawer).
|
||
|
||
-----
|
||
|
||
### Batch 13 — Append-only event log
|
||
|
||
**Inspiration / lift:** `OpenHands/OpenHands` V1 (MIT).
|
||
|
||
**What it gives BooCode:** replaces the ad-hoc `messages` table semantics with a typed event stream. Unlocks rewind, time-travel, and clean handoff semantics for multi-agent flows.
|
||
|
||
**Scope:**
|
||
|
||
- New `session_events` table: `(id, session_id, ts, kind, payload JSONB, parent_id)`. Event kinds: `user_message`, `assistant_message`, `tool_call`, `tool_result`, `pane_action`, `mode_change`, `system`.
|
||
- Existing `messages` table becomes a derived view over `session_events` for backward compatibility, then deprecated over a release.
|
||
- Inference loop emits events instead of mutating message rows.
|
||
- Frontend `useSessionStream` reducer rewritten to consume events.
|
||
|
||
**Migration is non-trivial.** Plan in a dedicated batch with explicit cutover window.
|
||
|
||
**Dependencies:** Batches 5 (fork/delete) and 7 (settings) merged. Must not be in flight with other backend work.
|
||
|
||
-----
|
||
|
||
### Batch 14 — BooCoder: pending changes
|
||
|
||
**Inspiration / lift:** `plandex-ai/plandex` (MIT).
|
||
|
||
**What it gives BooCode:** safe write tools. Edits queue in a virtual layer; nothing touches the filesystem until explicit `/apply`.
|
||
|
||
**Scope:**
|
||
|
||
- New container `boocoder` at `100.114.205.53:9502`. Owns write tools (`edit_file`, `create_file`, `delete_file`, `apply_pending`, `rewind`).
|
||
- New table `pending_changes (id, session_id, file_path, diff TEXT, status, created_at)`. Status: `pending`, `applied`, `rejected`.
|
||
- Tools execute against the pending-changes layer, not the filesystem. `apply_pending` is the only path that touches disk. `rewind` rolls back a `pending`-id back to disk state.
|
||
- BooCode chat container stays read-only (`/opt:/opt:ro`). BooCoder mounts `/opt/repos:/opt/repos:rw` and uses git worktree pattern from paseo for isolation.
|
||
- Frontend: new pane kind `pending_diff` shows the queued diff inline with Approve/Reject per chunk.
|
||
|
||
**Dependencies:** Batches 12 (gating) + 13 (events). Don’t start until both are live.
|
||
|
||
-----
|
||
|
||
### Batch 15 — BooCoder runtime isolation
|
||
|
||
**Inspiration / lift:** `OpenHands/OpenHands` (MIT).
|
||
|
||
**What it gives BooCode:** per-session Docker sandbox for BooCoder writes. Closes the `/opt:ro` mount risk identified in v1.x open items.
|
||
|
||
**Scope:**
|
||
|
||
- Per-session container spawned by BooCoder on first write. Container has only the project’s path mounted, not `/opt`.
|
||
- Container lifecycle: spawn on first write call, idle-timeout after 30 min, recreate on resume.
|
||
- Action execution server pattern: HTTP API inside the container, BooCoder calls in. Standard OpenHands runtime contract.
|
||
|
||
**Dependencies:** Batch 14.
|
||
|
||
-----
|
||
|
||
### Batch 16 — Multi-provider LLM abstraction
|
||
|
||
**Inspiration / lift:** `earendil-works/pi` `pi-ai` (MIT).
|
||
|
||
**What it gives BooCode:** optional non-llama-swap inference paths (Anthropic, OpenAI, Mistral direct). Currently we have one provider (llama-swap) and the existing `streamCompletion` is hardcoded to OpenAI-compatible at that endpoint.
|
||
|
||
**Scope:**
|
||
|
||
- Provider abstraction: `interface LLMProvider { stream(req): AsyncIterator<Frame> }`.
|
||
- Built-in: llama-swap (current), Anthropic, OpenAI (Codex-style).
|
||
- Per-session `provider_id` column.
|
||
|
||
**Status:** **Optional. Skip unless a concrete need surfaces.** llama-swap covers daily driver work.
|
||
|
||
-----
|
||
|
||
### Batch 17 — Workflow graphs
|
||
|
||
**Inspiration / lift:** `microsoft/agent-framework` (MIT) — concepts only.
|
||
|
||
**What it gives BooCode:** multi-agent coordination. Architect → Coder → Reviewer → Verifier handoffs orchestrated by a YAML-defined workflow.
|
||
|
||
**Status:** **Far future.** Read agent-framework’s `docs/decisions/` ADRs. Don’t port code — Azure/.NET-heavy.
|
||
|
||
**Dependencies:** Batches 12 (modes), 13 (events). Realistically a v2.x topic.
|
||
|
||
-----
|
||
|
||
## Order of operations
|
||
|
||
Two tracks. Pick one to drive next.
|
||
|
||
**Track A — Finish v1.x mobile + polish then agents:**
|
||
|
||
- v1.6.2 ships (in flight)
|
||
- **Batch 9 (agents)** — decoupled, can land next; no UI dependency on 5/6/7
|
||
- Batches 5, 6, 7, 8 in order. Each is small, frontend-heavy, no architecture risk. Batch 7 absorbs SettingsDrawer agent entry.
|
||
|
||
**Track B — Begin architect capabilities in parallel:**
|
||
|
||
- Batch 11 (codecontext sidecar) — biggest single capability jump. Frontend stays the same; new tools appear to the model.
|
||
- Batch 11b (repo health) — follow-up.
|
||
- Batch 12 (gating) — sets up everything post-v1.x.
|
||
|
||
Recommendation: ship v1.6.2, then **Batch 9 (agents)** next so the test bed exists before Track A continues. Then Track A through Batch 7. Batch 11 can run in parallel with Batches 8–10 since 11 has no UI dependency.

|
||
**Batch 11:** none (codecontext stateless on disk).
|
||
**Batch 11b:** `repo_health_cache (project_id, file_hashes_sig, payload JSONB, created_at)`.
|
||
**Batch 12:** `sessions.tool_approval_mode`, `sessions.approved_tools`.
|
||
**Batch 13:** `session_events`; deprecate `messages` long-tail.
|
||
**Batch 14:** `pending_changes`.

## Decisions log
|
||
|
||
- **Embeddings dropped from BooCode.** Replaced RAG with file-view tools + sidecar analyzers.
|
||
- **Original Batch 11 (aider PageRank port) replaced** by codecontext sidecar approach.
|
||
- **Original Batch 12 (codebase indexer w/ Harrier) removed** entirely. No embedding infrastructure in BooCode v1.x.
|
||
- **Globstar parked** — not an architect tool, future verify-before-commit candidate only.
|
||
- **codeprysm rejected** — embedding-based; node/edge taxonomy noted as reference if we ever build our own graph.
|
||
- **Batch 9 decoupled from Batch 7 (2026-05-16).** AgentPicker mounts in `ChatInput.tsx` toolbar only. SettingsDrawer agent entry and Header active-agent badge moved to Batch 7. Builtin defaults shipped: six agents (Code Reviewer, Debugger, Refactorer, Architect, Security Auditor, Prompt Builder) with no `model` field — session model wins by default.
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
## Workflow
|
||
|
||
Each batch:
|
||
|
||
1. Verify previous batch merged.
|
||
2. Dispatch via Paseo to Claude Code at `/opt/boocode`.
|
||
3. Claude Code recon → blocking questions → implement → hand back.
|
||
4. Compliance review in separate Claude chat.
|
||
5. Deploy: `docker compose up --build -d`.
|
||
6. Smoke test.
|
||
7. Sam commits and pushes.
|
||
|
||
Sam reviews all diffs. Sam commits. Never git pull/push/commit on his behalf.
|
