The comment at the install site claimed only that an overlapping worker result
'is discarded'. State why the empty-set result is installable at all — an empty
id intersection is proof a serial parse would have dropped nothing — and why the
tempting shortcut is wrong: parsedTurnsToCachedTurns delta-encodes gitBranch
across turns, so dropping one turn changes whether a LATER turn carries a
gitBranch key. Overlap discards the whole file, never individual turns.
Tests: the end-to-end determinism check now runs both parses over the SAME
corpus, so cache shard BODIES are compared byte for byte instead of just their
keys, and a new resumed-session fixture (a transcript restating another file's
message ids, in both filename orders) makes install order decide the answer.
Verified by mutation: removing the discard guard fails it, and yielding worker
results out of order fails it.
CODEBURN_VERBOSE now reports how many worker results were re-parsed in-process
on id overlap, which is what the new test asserts on. The worker bundle's source
map is excluded from the published package (-1.8 MB).
os.freemem() reports free pages on macOS, not available memory: on an idle
128 GB machine it reads a few hundred MB, so the 2 GB gate switched the worker
pool on and off between runs on the platform the desktop app ships to. The gate
and the budget now use process.availableMemory() (cgroup/rlimit-aware in a
container), falling back to os.totalmem(): serial under 4 GB available, budget
min(0.25 * available, 2 GB). An 8 GB box earns 8 threads, a 4 GB box none.
The verbose line now carries every decision input — cores, available GB, pending
files and bytes — on both the gate and the go path, so one support log explains
itself.
Pins the gates that keep threads off low-spec machines and warm runs, that a
forced worker count bypasses them, that results come back in submission order,
that a dead pool reports failure instead of throwing (and the serial fallback
lands on the same result), that no thread outlives a parse across back-to-back
parses, and that a cold CLI parse with and without workers produces the same
payload and the same cache shards.
Reading, decoding and line-parsing a Claude session JSONL is per-file work that
touches nothing shared, so it moves onto worker_threads for a large cold parse.
parseClaudeFileFull() is the extracted unit both sides run; a worker runs it
against an empty dedup set and returns the result as a JSON string, and the
parent installs results in the order the serial loop would. Everything with
cross-file state stays on the main thread, and a file whose message ids were
already claimed (or whose worker failed) re-parses in-process, so the output is
identical to the serial path.
Thread count is decided per parse: never with <=2 cores, under 2 GB free memory,
fewer than 200 pending whole-file re-parses or under 200 MB behind them, so warm
and incremental runs spawn nothing. CODEBURN_PARSE_WORKERS overrides it. The pool
is terminated when the parse ends, so the resident serve child accumulates no
threads.
A file's shard span was read off turns[0]/turns[-1], but several providers
emit turns non-chronologically (cursor by ROWID, goose/crush/copilot by a
DESC ordering). That produced until < bucket - an empty span, so the shard
was unreachable at every scope and its sessions re-parsed every run.
cacheFileSpan now takes the min and max month over all turns.
An entry re-bucketing out of a month the run never loaded (a re-parse that
moved its oldest turn, or the #441 failure marker that has no turns at all)
left the old copy in the carried shard, so one path lived in two shards and
a later load could resolve to the stale one. A save now prunes those paths
from the shards it carries, and a load merges shards in envelope order,
resolving any duplicate to the freshest fingerprint and dirtying both
buckets so the next save retires the loser.
A carried month whose shard another writer had republished was dropped from
the envelope outright, losing expired-transcript PR orphans no re-parse can
recover. The envelope is now re-read just before publishing and the current
shard name adopted; a ref is dropped only when that envelope lacks it too.
The same re-read moves every merge read after the ownership fence and gives
the merge one optimistic retry, so the read-modify-write window shrinks to
the publish itself.
Also: retire an orphaned v8 directory / v7 file left by an interrupted
re-layout, age-guarded, once a v9 envelope is published.
Every per-file markCacheDirty call site now names the file, so a parse,
a re-parse, a failure marker, an orphan eviction and the durable age-out
each dirty exactly the month they touched. The two section-level marks
(a fingerprint reset, the durable stamp) stay provider-wide.
parseAllSessions derives a month scope from its dateRange and threads it
through every loadCache call, so a today/week query stops reading the
months it cannot report on.
A provider's shard held its whole history, so one appended session
rewrote 95 MB. Each provider's files are now split by the UTC month of
their first turn - a bucket that is stable across appends, so a growing
session never migrates shards - and every shard records the newest month
it holds so a ranged load can skip the ones that cannot contribute.
Dirty tracking is per bucket: markCacheDirty takes an optional file path
and marks both the bucket the entry was last saved in and the one it is
in now. A save writes only dirty buckets, carries the refs of months it
never loaded, and merges the on-disk shard back in when a bucket is
dirty but was never loaded. v8 and v7 caches re-lay-out losslessly.
A memo hit must not re-render. The generated stamp is minted per render,
so asserting it is unchanged across the hit states that contract directly
instead of leaving it implied by byte equality.
scanProjectDirs ran every cached turn through cachedTurnToClassified —
per-call reconstruction plus the turn classifier's category / retries /
edit regexes — and only then applied the date slice, so a week view paid
to classify all of history to keep a few percent of it.
The keep/drop decision now runs on the raw CachedTurn (calls map 1:1 onto
assistantCalls, so callsInRange sees the same survivors as the classified
slicer) and only survivors are classified, still from their complete call
list. The branch and PR-set carries still walk the full ordered turn list,
and buildSpawnPrSets still reads the pre-slice turns.
Real corpus, warm one-shot status --format menubar-json --no-optimize,
identical payloads: today 1561ms -> 1318ms, week 1560ms -> 1410ms,
month 1788ms -> 1675ms.
Two live processes share one cache directory routinely (a one-shot CLI
beside the resident serve child, two menubar polls), and the shard layout
had two ways to lose data there.
- The atomic write used a FIXED temp name, so two writers publishing the
envelope — every save does — shared one `envelope.json.tmp` and
interleaved into a torn payload, or one deleted the shards the other's
envelope named. 39 of 40 rounds ended in a total cache loss. The temp
name carries a nonce again, as it did before the shard layout.
- A save reused a shard filename from its own load snapshot without
checking the file was still there. Another process republishing that
provider unlinks the old shard, so the stale writer published an
envelope naming a deleted file — read back as a corrupt provider and
dropped whole, including PR-linked orphans no re-parse can recover. A
reused shard is now existence-checked, and re-verified once more
immediately before the envelope is published; a vanished one is
rewritten from memory.
Also:
- Progress saves take a 30s floor beside the file counter. Only the
claude scan reports per file; every other provider calls saveProgress
once at its own boundary, so the counter alone never fired there.
- The unreferenced-shard sweep waits an hour (temps still 5 minutes): an
unreferenced shard may belong to a concurrent save whose envelope has
not landed yet.
- The sweep also retires the pre-v8 single-file temps in the parent
directory, which nothing writes anymore.
- The shard directory is created 0o700.
- The claude and provider paths mark the cache dirty where they DELETE a
stale entry, not only where they replace it: an unreadable file skips
the replace, and the deletion would otherwise live only in memory.
- Codex only treats a grown file as an append when the recorded boundary
still lands just after a newline, so a same-inode rewrite that happens
to end up larger re-parses instead of resuming mid-line.
Codex rollout files are append-only and the active ones run to hundreds
of MB, but any growth re-read the file from byte 0 because the cache
keyed only on mtime+size. The parser now records a restart point at every
task_started boundary — the byte offset plus the state the single-pass
decode carries across it — and a grown file with the same dev/ino picks
up from there.
The boundary sits at the task_started line itself, so the task it opens
is re-decoded from the tail; the entry stores how many calls were decoded
before that point so the resumed run starts from exactly those and cannot
double-count the open task. An unusable or absent snapshot falls back to
a full re-parse.
CODEX_CACHE_VERSION is deliberately not bumped: the new fields are
additive and absence-safe both ways, so a bump would discard a warm
cache for nothing.
A warm launch rewrote the entire session cache whenever any provider
appended a few KB: on a 6 GB corpus that is a 155 MB stringify + fsync
every run. The on-disk cache is now a version-suffixed directory holding
one shard per provider plus a small envelope, and a save rewrites only
the providers marked dirty.
- Dirtiness is tracked per provider (markCacheDirty) instead of one
global flag, so an appended Claude session no longer republishes
Codex, Copilot and the rest.
- Shards carry a nonce in their filename and the envelope is renamed
last, so a save is published at a single point: readers never see a
half-updated set, and a writer that loses the refresh ownership fence
leaves the canonical shards untouched.
- A shard that fails validation is treated as an absent provider rather
than rejecting the whole cache, so one malformed turn costs one
provider's re-parse instead of every provider's history.
- v7 migrates losslessly: the blob is re-laid-out into shards and
removed only once that save publishes. Nothing re-parses.
- Cold-parse progress saves now trigger every N files parsed rather than
every 5s, so a slow cold parse no longer rewrites the growing cache on
a wall clock.
The separator regex retried its leading \s* from every offset, which is
quadratic on the long whitespace-heavy commands agents emit; that one regex
was ~30% of a warm status run on a multi-GB corpus. Match the separator
alone and widen over whitespace by hand. Output is unchanged (differential
check over 42k real commands).
Clear the per-directory Codex and Antigravity memo maps in the resident RSS
guard; document the single cache-dir rule (XDG_CACHE_HOME no longer
consulted, ledger migrated); stop output-overflow terminations from spending
the resident's unexpected-death budget.
flatSlice returned strings within the bound unchanged, but provider adapters
pre-truncate with .slice(0, 500) before the cache site, so those views still
pinned their parent buffers. Always flatten; the round-trip is ~150ns per turn.
Use utf16le so lone surrogates survive the copy.
Cache the canonical-path Promise instead of the resolved value so calls in one
Promise.all batch share a single walk.
Document the one-time kiro re-parse and worktree regrouping.
The kiro provider was reading the full working directory from session
metadata (meta.cwd for CLI sessions, workspacePaths[0] for v2 IDE
sessions, workspaceDirectory for workspace sessions) but discarding it
via basename(), keeping only the leaf name for display. This meant
computeAttributionRecords could never resolve kiro sessions to a git
repo, so `codeburn sync push --attribution` produced 0 facts for all
kiro-originated sessions.
Now passes the full path as projectPath on emitted ParsedProviderCalls,
which buildRepoGroups uses to resolve git identity and correlate
commits with sessions via timestamp windows. The path stays local:
only the normalized origin remote egresses in attribution spans.
Behavior changes beyond attribution:
- kiro calls now flow through canonicalizeProviderCallProject, so kiro
sessions in LINKED GIT WORKTREES canonicalize to the main repository:
their report project name changes from the worktree dir name to the
main repo name (consistent with claude/codex behavior).
- workingDirectory is now populated on kiro calls.
- PROVIDER_PARSE_VERSIONS.kiro bumped (project-path-v1): cached entries
predate projectPath and are served without re-invoking the parser, so
without the bump this fix silently no-ops for every warm cache. The
bump forces a one-time cold kiro re-parse on upgrade.
ORDERING: this commit must land WITH (or after) the preceding
SlicedString OOM fix. The forced cold re-parse it triggers is exactly
the workload that OOM'd before that fix on multi-GB kiro stores.
Perf: per-call canonicalization added a measured +5% to cold parse
(.git-marker lstat walk per call). resolveCanonicalProjectPath is now
memoized on cwd (cleared with the session cache), removing the
redundant walks for all providers.
Tests: projectPath emission fixtures for all three session formats
(CLI, v2 IDE, workspace-session), fingerprint-change assertion, and a
regression test seeding a pre-bump cache entry and proving the re-parse
recovers projectPath.

String.prototype.slice returns a V8 SlicedString: a view that retains a
reference to its ENTIRE parent string. The parsers store short previews
of message text (userMessage.slice(0, 500/2000)) in the long-lived
session cache. Session files routinely carry 100KB+ strings (agent-
injected system prompts, tool results), so every cached preview pinned
its full parent buffer for the life of the process.
Measured on 3.2GB of kiro CLI session files (6,659 files, largest 40MB):
cold parse, default heap, before: 4.33GB peak -> OOM crash
cold parse, 8GB heap, before: 5.67GB peak (kiro provider alone)
after kiro flatSlice: 0.91GB peak
after parser.ts cache sites too: 0.64GB peak
original failing command (cold,
default heap, all providers): 0.89GB peak -> completes
Warm runs were always fine (~0.29GB) because the cache's JSON round-trip
flattens the strings on load — which made this bug appear intermittent:
it only fired on a cold or invalidated cache.
Fix: flatSlice() in content-utils.ts forces a flat copy via Buffer
round-trip. Applied at the six kiro userMessage capture sites and the
three shared cache-building sites in parser.ts (protects all providers).
Regression test asserts the no-retention property via bounded heap
growth over 1000 large-parent slices.

Classic has no fitting store category (per forum feedback) and strict is
electron-builder's well-supported path. One personal-files plug grants
read-only access to the dot-directories the supported tools write session
logs into; the app's own config and cache stay in the snap's private area.
- electron-builder snap target (classic confinement) with package:snap script
- build-snap.yml: builds on ubuntu, uploads artifact, optional store publish
gated on workflow_dispatch input + SNAPCRAFT_STORE_CREDENTIALS secret
- app/flathub: manifest repacking the released deb, desktop file, AppStream
metainfo, and submission runbook
cli-json-daily, spend-flow and cli-emitters spawn the real CLI per test
and blow the 5s default under full parallel suite load while passing in
isolation - the flake set #948 documented on unmodified main, observed
again locally (cli-json-daily) and in CI (cli-emitters on a green PR).
Same file-level remedy the CLI menubar suite already uses; the default
stays 5s for everything else.
- Punchcard tooltips flipped below the cursor on the top rows (the
overflow container clips anything above its own edge) and clamp
horizontally near the strip edges. Applied to both the app and dash
copies of the component.
- The menubar Workflow strip is removed (view, strip model, tests):
the popover is the compact surface and the workflow metrics live in
the desktop app, dash and TUI. The payload keeps emitting the block
(add-only contract; the other surfaces read it).
The release's new capabilities were unevenly surfaced: the Spend
punchcard existed only on the web dashboard, and the menubar decoded
nothing of the PR-attribution block the payload already carries.
- Desktop app: new Punchcard component (hour-of-day x weekday spend
matrix, ported from the dash and restyled to the app's tokens) on the
Spend page. Fed by a dedicated getTimeline bridge channel that fetches
the payload WITH history.timeline; every other fetch keeps the lean
--no-timeline path, and the serve child makes the extra fetch cheap.
Hides gracefully when the payload has no timeline (older CLI).
- Menubar: PullRequestsSection renders the top three PRs by attributed
spend under the Workflow strip; MenubarPayload now decodes the
pullRequests block (decodeIfPresent, so older payloads are unchanged).
Hidden when absent or empty.
Deliberately NOT ported: codex Tok/s (reads rollout files per session -
too heavy for payload cadence; stays a TUI/report analytics view) and
the punchcard in the menubar (a 7x24 matrix has no legible place in a
compact popover).
App suite 468 green (bridge channel pinned, mocks extended), swift
build + 156 tests green, CLI suite green.
