A defined fold claim is always freshly built and adjacent metering events
cannot repeat, so presence alone decides the claim transition; the value
comparison was unreachable and failed the per-file branch gate.
The contextBreakdown and contextPressure units carried the full priced
surface, so each session's persisted projection checkpoint grew without
bound. A surface replacement is now priced by the shadow-price event
logged directly before it — compact/summary for compaction, the new
compact/prune from tool-result pruning (priced through the injected
token meter) — and the unit states shrink to a fixed handful of numbers.
Regenerate the persistence/cordis/module/config catalogs.
The composer ring, percentage, and `~used / capacity` header read
`contextPressure.pressureTokens`, which moves only when a request reports
usage. Compaction reports none — compact-basic summarizes through a direct
`ctx.llm.stream()` call and appends only its own `compact/*` records plus the
replacement `user/message` — so the meter was frozen across the one action
taken to change it. Driving a real `compactNow` through the agent loop:
BEFORE compact: ring=4% header=~4227/100000 rows=[18, 0, 4365]
AFTER compact: ring=4% header=~4227/100000 rows=[18, 0, 286]
The composition rows fell 93%; the ring did not move, and would not until an
entire further turn completed. The panel then contradicted itself by more than
an order of magnitude at exactly the moment a reader opens it.
`contextPressure` now also publishes `projectedTokens`: the provider sample
plus the heuristic repricing of everything the surface gained or lost since
that sample, clamped at zero, folded through the shared `surface-fold.ts`. The
sample is stamped before the same event joins the surface, so an
`assistant/message` anchors against the surface its own request carried. Only
the delta is estimated, so the figure stays provider-anchored — the estimator's
CJK and JSON-schema underpricing stays out of the occupancy number — while
reacting the moment content lands or a span is shadowed. Same run after:
BEFORE compact: ring=4% header=~4323/100000 (pressure=4227, projected=4323)
AFTER compact: ring=0% header=~ 244/100000 (pressure=4227, projected= 244)
`contextOccupancy` prefers the projected figure and falls back to the bare
sample, so a projection restored from a pre-field checkpoint degrades to the
old behavior rather than disappearing. `stateVersion` moves to 3.
`contextBreakdown.messageTokens` and `measure().surfaceTokens` answer the same
question in the same heuristic vocabulary, and the panel's composition rows are
only honest while they agree. Each owner carried its own copy of the positional
fold — same pricing, same `{seq, tokens}` node list, same replace-range lookup
and guard, differing only in mutable versus immutable application — so an edit
to either one would have moved the panel away from `measure()` with both sides
still green. The duplication gate caught the shared 62 tokens.
`src/surface-fold.ts` now owns `foldSurfaceTokens`: total, allocation-fresh,
returning the event's price, the next surface, and the signed total delta. The
service assigns that result where it used to prepare a commit closure, which
keeps its validate-before-mutate replay transaction intact — the fold throws
before any state is touched, so a malformed event still fails identically on
every retry. `_prepareSurfaceMutation` and `_estimateSurfaceEvent` go away with
it, and the projection's apply drops to one call.
Covers the identity with a session that appends and then compacts, asserting
the projection figure equals the service surface at each boundary; the test
fails when either side of the fold is perturbed.
Assistant footers and the stats line gain TTFT/tok-per-second readings
folded from step timings; context occupancy moves off the stats line onto
a composer ring whose panel shows a heuristic system/tools/messages
breakdown from the new token-meter contextBreakdown session projection.
The chat stats line took its token totals from the loaded conversation nodes,
so paging changed them and compaction erased the billing behind replaced
content. It also had no way to show context occupancy: the numerator and
capacity never reached the browser.
Both now come from token-meter session projections read through the standard
useProjection seat. Window nodes keep supplying turn and step counts plus LLM
and tool wall times, which are correctly window-scoped facts about what is on
screen; accounting no longer comes from there.
`tokenUsage` supplies billing and cache hit. `contextPressure` supplies
occupancy, pairing the newest provider-reported prompt size with the newest
capacity recorded by `request/context`. Deployments without token-meter drop
the token groups; a route whose adapter advertises no capacity drops the
occupancy group rather than rendering a placeholder.
Occupancy is deliberately approximate: the numerator and capacity are
independent last-wins fields, not one atomic request observation, so switching
models pairs a fresh capacity with the prior route's pressure until the next
request reports usage. It is a user-facing reference figure that nothing in the
harness makes decisions from, and it matches how the TUI status line has always
computed occupancy. The Agent Note and token-meter README state this as a
decision, including why the atomic alternative was implemented and rejected, so
it is not re-litigated as a defect.
Snapshot delta is one added `Context N% of 128K` segment across eight web
goldens; the preceding commit absorbed master's pre-existing golden drift.
Conflict resolution notes:
- StatsLine: master redesigned the row into pipe-separated groups with LLM and
tool wall times. Kept that design and swapped only the token accounting
source, so counts and durations stay window-scoped while billing and context
occupancy read the durable projections.
- Generated artifacts (cordis catalog, module graph, event producer/consumer,
i18n pairing hashes) and web snapshots took master's side; they are
regenerated and re-recorded after this merge.
- Web e2e goldens and details-panel/timeline assertions took master's side:
that evolution is unrelated to this branch.
- ui-conversation package.json: kept master's devDependency ordering, re-adding
only the token-meter entry this branch needs.
Replace the transient `session/model-request` mux frame with ordinary durable
session state. Occupancy now rides two last-wins projection fields instead of a
non-replayable frame that needed removal tombstones and cross-stream fencing.
The frame was the only non-replayable class on the mux stream. Because host and
mux are independent SSE streams with no cross-stream order, a request emitted
before a removal could arrive after `host/session-removed`, and a legitimate
request for a new lifecycle reusing the same id could be fenced by a late
removal. Fixing that needed a lifecycle generation on every frame; the frame
itself was the problem.
Removed: the `session/model-request` frame and schema, the `agent/model-request`
core event, the ApiProxy measurement point, the client-side telemetry map and
removal tombstone, and the synthetic `cancelled` open error used to signal
reconnect through the error channel.
Added: `request/context`, a log-only session event recording the
registration-bound capacity of the route a request resolved to, appended beside
`request/header` from the lookup that already prepared the call and skipped when
the route is unchanged. Capacity stays out of `EpochHeader` because it is
adapter metadata about a route, not an input the request was built from, so it
must not join request reconstruction or header equality.
The `contextPressure` projection pairs the newest provider-reported prompt size
with the newest recorded capacity. The two are deliberately not one atomic
request observation: switching models can pair a fresh capacity with the prior
route's pressure until the next request reports usage. The figure is a
user-facing reference, and this matches how the TUI status line has always
computed occupancy.
