Cost already used the helper. Report, sessions, overview and optimize
did not, so exclusive providers dropped reasoning and optimize
double-counted it for claude/codex/copilot. Daily cache v28 re-derives.
Closes#1115
Maintainer review on #1049: empty-state copy under --provider codex
named detectors that scanSessions never ran. Say the session-scan
detectors do not cover that provider yet. Drop the dead TUI provider
threading; optimize view is still gated to all|claude.
Extra High on #1049: keep the shipped Claude Code empty-state and
TUI header strings; resolve agent nouns from Provider.displayName;
cover all five cross-provider detector labels.
parseLargeJsonl dropped promptSource for exactly the lines SDK-generated
prompts live on, so the recurring-context detector regex-scanned the ends of
the raw line for it. Add the field to LARGE_ROOT_FIELDS (tiny scalar,
add-only, isSidechain already there) and delete the workaround: it read only
2 KB from each end, so a flag further in was missed.
No cache change: optimize scans the raw JSONL each run, so promptSource never
has to persist on CachedFile.
Fixes#1030. With #994 this closes#1023.
Only duplicate-reads has a structural reason to skip them: a subagent
starts on a fresh context, so re-reading what its parent read is a
necessary read, not a repeat. Reading node_modules or editing without
reading is the same waste whoever does it, and the CLAUDE.md rule both
findings suggest binds subagents too - filtering them there discarded
most of the evidence on a subagent-heavy corpus.
The prefix alone could not tell a claude.ai connector from a local MCP
server that happens to be named claude_ai_*, so the latter lost its
removal command and its apply plan. A namespace is now a connector only
when no readable local config claims that exact name; localMcpServerNames
supplies the set from the same files the remove plan edits (settings.json,
.mcp.json, and ~/.claude.json top-level plus per-project mcpServers).
A prefixed name that local config does own stays local: normal removal
command, apply plan, class fix, full savings attribution. Because the
transcript still cannot rule out a same-name connector, the finding adds a
manual note about it instead of asserting the server is one. Config that
cannot be read contributes no names, which leaves every prefixed namespace
on the conservative connector path.
A mixed local + claude.ai connector finding is class `fix`, but `--apply`
only mutates the local servers. classTotals now credits the `fix` group
with `applyTokensSaved` when present, so the "Fix now (apply-able)"
subtotal, the "apply-able: ~$X" headline and `summary.byClass.fix` (CLI,
TUI and desktop all read these) describe what apply can actually recover.
The finding keeps the whole opportunity in its own `tokensSaved`.
Also fixes the desktop connector fixture, which predated the class/basis
fields, and adds class-level coverage: connector-only findings resolve to
`nudge` (no apply payload), a local server named like a connector stays
manual-only, and local-only findings keep their full subtotal.
An SDK session's opening prompt and a subagent's task prompt are written by
a program: they repeat by design and have no home in CLAUDE.md. Both are
flagged on the entry, but a user entry over the parser's large-line
threshold comes back without its root flags - routine for generated prompts,
which are exactly the long ones - so the markers are read off the ends of
the raw line, where the fields sit either side of the oversized message.
Every still-applied journal entry now comes back with a verdict on the
next optimize run: worked (>=70% of its window-scaled estimate
realized), partial, no-effect (printed with its undo command), or
measuring while it is younger than the 3-day window. The verdicts come
off the rows act report already computes, so there is one
reconciliation, not two; the AppliedFix type and its formatter live in
act/types.ts so the optimize renderer can use them without importing
report.ts back into optimize.ts.
--auto-revert undoes the no-effect entries through the same code path as
codeburn act undo. It never touches partial or measuring entries, and
never a claude-md-rule - those land in whatever directory the user
happened to be in, the same reason --yes skips them.
--apply now names when the re-measure happens, and --format json carries
appliedFixes[] (add-only).
Groups sessions by their opening block (whitespace/ANSI-normalized, hashed
over the first 2 KB) and flags a block of at least 1.5 KB that opens five or
more sessions. Class nudge: CodeBurn will not move the user's own text into
CLAUDE.md, so the fix asks Claude to give the block a permanent home. Only
the repeats count as savings, sized from the block's bytes because provider
usage is per API call and cannot isolate the paste. The opener comes from
the session scan that already runs, so nothing extra is read.
Each class header now carries its own token/dollar subtotal and finding
count, so the apply-able slice is never mistaken for the whole board; the
headline savings line names that slice explicitly. CLI and TUI share one
classHeaderLine helper, the desktop app reads the same numbers from the
new summary.byClass in --format json (add-only; the three subtotals sum to
findingCount and potentialSavingsTokens).
Also scopes the SHELL_PROFILE_SCOPE comment to what is actually true: the
MCP deferral plans refuse to rewrite a shell profile, but bash-output-cap
appends its own marker block to one.
Every finding now resolves to a class (apply-able fix, habit nudge, or
informational keep) and a basis (measured from provider-counted usage, or
estimated from a schema/heuristic model), both from one table next to the
FindingId union. The class follows the plan layer: an id is 'fix' only when
buildPlan routes it, and an instance drops to 'nudge' when it lacks the
payload or cause its builder needs.
CLI, TUI and the desktop app group findings under Fix now / Habits / FYI
with continuous numbering; the CLI header reports 'N measured · M
estimated' in place of the blanket 'Estimates only.' footer. The JSON
report gains class + basis per finding and summary.measuredSavingsUSD;
existing fields are unchanged. The menubar's top three follow the same
order, since every surface reads the sorted findings list.
Sessions whose cost the provider never reported leave the cost-outliers
peer math; when nothing else is priced the comparison falls back to them
and the finding reports itself as estimated instead of disappearing.
Grok CLI writes a turn_completed update carrying a full usage object --
inputTokens, outputTokens, cachedReadTokens, cacheCreationTokens,
reasoningTokens -- into the same updates.jsonl the parser already reads. We
ignored it and reconstructed an estimate from _meta.totalTokens, a running
context-size counter that rides on unrelated events, with a
total < prevTotal * 0.5 reset as the turn boundary.
On the cache-heavy session reported in #998 that reconstruction captured about
1.4% of the real cache-read volume and roughly 6% of the day's tokens, while
over-counting output about fivefold. cacheCreationInputTokens and
reasoningTokens were hardcoded to zero regardless of what the session held.
The parser now reads turn_completed.usage, keyed by the record's snake_case
prompt_id so a re-emitted turn cannot double count, and sums across turns.
Two decompositions matter, both derivable from the reported numbers:
totalTokens equals inputTokens + outputTokens exactly, so cachedReadTokens and
cacheCreationTokens are subsets of input and are subtracted out per record
before pricing, matching the cache-exclusive convention codex and copilot
already use; and reasoningTokens is a subset of output.
That second one needs care, because the repo contract is the opposite of
Grok's: ParsedProviderCall.reasoningTokens is exclusive of outputTokens
everywhere, and every consumer sums the two -- tests/providers/kiro.test.ts
says so outright. So reasoning is clamped to the reported output and output is
emitted without it, and the downstream sum reconstructs Grok's number. Without
the clamp a record with reasoning > output produced a negative output and left
the pipeline pricing reasoning instead.
Multi-model attribution is deliberately out of scope. modelUsage only selects a
priced attribution id; a session that used two models is priced at one rate.
Splitting per model was tried and dropped: chooseAuthoritativeModel's
priced-id fallback exists to avoid a truthful-but-$0 row when modelUsage names
an id this checkout cannot price, and per-model pricing loses it -- the
reporter's own session collapsed from $1.20 to near zero the moment a second
id appeared.
When no valid completed record exists -- older Grok CLI versions -- the old
heuristic still runs, unchanged. The decision is taken from the deduplicated
records rather than latched per line, so a superseded or all-zero record cannot
flip a session off the heuristic and drop it. A session only partly covered by
turn_completed records keeps costIsEstimated: true rather than presenting
itself as fully provider-measured.
costUsdTicks is deliberately not read. Its scale is undocumented, and guessing
it would fabricate spend.
Bumps the grok parse version, and DAILY_CACHE_VERSION with
MIN_SUPPORTED_VERSION together, since the daily cache serves every day before
today and retains ten years. Moving them in lockstep is what keeps the
carry-forward lossless: the filename is version-suffixed, so the old file stays
on disk and is adopted for days no source can still re-derive.
Separately, detectContextBloat divided by outputTokens alone. Reasoning is
stored beside output for every reasoning-bearing provider, so the detector saw
a fraction of the generated tokens and invented high-impact findings -- a
session whose provider-reported ratio is 20:1, below the 25:1 threshold, was
reported as 133:1 with 710K tokens of claimed savings. It now uses the same
output + reasoning sum the reports use, which fixes codex, kiro, hermes, qwen
and cursor-agent too.
Reported in #998.
* fix(optimize): scope transcript-derived findings to the selected provider
scanSessions() always ran discoverAllSessions('claude'), so every finding it
feeds was computed from Claude transcripts regardless of --provider, while the
header (sessions, calls, cost) came from the already-filtered projects. Under
--provider codex the two described different providers, and the Claude-derived
numbers read as the selected provider's.
Skip the scan when the filter excludes Claude, and skip the detectors it feeds
rather than handing them an empty scan: emptiness reads as "never invoked", so
an empty scan turned every skill, agent and command into a reported ghost.
Findings derived from projects (MCP tool coverage, capability reliability,
low-worth sessions, context bloat, outliers, model recommendations) already
filter correctly and still run.
The result cache key now carries the provider, since the provider decides
whether the scan runs at all.
* fix(optimize): thread the provider through the apply, aggregator and TUI scans
The previous commit fixed one of four scanAndDetect callers. The other three
carry a provider filter and dropped it:
- act/optimize-apply.ts: `optimize --apply` branches in main.ts before the
code that threads it, so a Codex-scoped run planned applies off Claude
findings. This is the worst of the three because `unused-skills` is
appliable and its plan moves directories out of ~/.claude/skills.
- usage-aggregator.ts: AggregateOpts.provider was already honoured for the
usage half but not for the optimize half, so the menubar, desktop and web
surfaces carried the same mismatch.
- dashboard.tsx: `p` cycles activeProvider and `o` opens optimize off the
same state, so the TUI could show Claude findings under a Codex view.
activeProvider joins the callback deps; reloadData already clears
optimizeResult on a provider switch, so no extra invalidation is needed.
Covered by a dry-run test on the apply path: under `provider: 'codex'` a fake
home holding an uninvoked skill must plan nothing, and under 'claude' the same
fixture must still plan the archive.
cacheKey fingerprinted only project count + api-call sum, so two datasets
agreeing on those two numbers collided onto one cached OptimizeResult, and
a cost/token change that left call count unchanged (e.g. a re-price) served
stale findings within the 60s TTL - reachable in the long-lived menubar.
Fold total cost, savings and proxied cost (scaled to micro-dollars) into
the key. Exported cacheKey and mutation-checked: the old key collides two
same-shape datasets and a re-price; the new one separates both, while an
identical dataset still keys identically.
* feat(insights): workflow intelligence (corrections, time-to-first-edit, file churn, coverage) + dash wire-up
* menubar: propagate workflow-intelligence fields onto the cache-backed headline
The carry-forward headline (#755) serves totals from the durable day set
and merges only session-derived fields from the scan. The new workflow,
topReworkedFiles, and pricingCoverage fields were computed by the scan
but never propagated, so they silently defaulted on the all-provider
path (pricingCoverage rendered a dishonest 1.0). Propagate them like the
other scan-only fields and pin it with a carried-headline regression
test.
* feat(optimize): mcp-deferral-gaps finding family
Add three read-only detectors for MCP tool-def deferral coverage gaps:
- mcp-deferral-off: sessions carrying MCP tool-def overhead with zero
ToolSearch invocations and no deferred_tools_delta inventory across
the window. Cause attribution, each with its own message and fix:
stale ENABLE_TOOL_SEARCH=false (settings env, any scope, or shell
profile), non-first-party ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL (reported as unknown
proxy — never assumes capability), Vertex AI config, all observed
Claude Code versions predating default-on tool search (v2.1.7), or
a generic deferral-appears-inactive fallback.
- mcp-alwaysload-hygiene: alwaysLoad-pinned servers whose observed
call rate is below 1 call per 5 sessions (named constant). Notes the
5s startup-blocking cost of alwaysLoad in the explanation.
- mcp-defer-threshold: ENABLE_TOOL_SEARCH=auto/auto:N overrides whose
threshold the estimated def volume never reaches, so tools load
upfront; recommends the tightest auto:N that would defer.
Detection only: no FindingApply payloads, no act-layer changes, no
file mutation. Users without deferral gaps see zero new output —
deferral-active evidence (ToolSearch calls or inventory) suppresses
the findings, and each detector gates on conservative named
thresholds. Config readers take an injectable homeDir (PlanContext
style) for hermetic tests.
Discrepancies vs the design notes, codebase/live-docs win:
- The Claude Code changelog records default-on (2.1.7), not first
ship, so the version cause uses the default-on boundary.
- Per-tool "anthropic/alwaysLoad" lives in server-served tool _meta,
not static config; server-level only, limitation documented.
- Live docs confirm auto default threshold 10% of context window and
the alwaysLoad v2.1.121+ requirement.
Refs getagentseal/codeburn#614
* feat(act): defer-* plan kinds for native deferral config
Wire the mcp-deferral-gaps findings to the act machinery with three
new plan kinds, all through the existing ConfigDocs/runAction path
(journaled, backed up, stale-guarded, dry-run previewable, undo
restores byte-identical files):
- defer-enable: removes a stale ENABLE_TOOL_SEARCH=false from the
settings env of the scope where the finding recorded it. Refusal
paths render as manual notes instead of plans: shell-profile lines
(codeburn only appends marker blocks to shell files, never edits
user lines), unknown proxies (setting the override blind makes
requests fail outright on proxies that don't forward tool_reference
blocks — the note says to verify first), Vertex, and old versions.
A proxy-verified cause (set by the part-3 verifier) produces a real
ENABLE_TOOL_SEARCH=true plan in user settings.
- defer-alwaysload: strips alwaysLoad: true from the named servers in
the exact config files the finding recorded. Gated on an injectable
installed-version probe (default: claude --version); below v2.1.121,
unparseable, or probe failure all refuse with a note naming the
required version. Preview notes the removed up-to-5s startup block.
- defer-threshold: rewrites the auto override to the recommended
auto:N, or deletes it when the finding says the default already
defers (removeOverride).
Findings now carry FindingApply payloads (path, scope, cause, servers,
recommended N); detector text is unchanged, so plain optimize renders
byte-identically to before. Every plan links its findingId into the
ActionRecord and states that changes take effect on the next session
(the config is read at Claude Code start).
Discrepancy vs the design notes: no existing version-check helper was
found in guard/ or act/ to reuse, so the detector's parseVersion/
versionPredates are exported and shared instead of adding a parallel
comparator.

* feat: implement act apply-model and report baseline tripwire (#607)
* feat: implement act apply-model and report baseline tripwire (#607)
* fix(act): scope model-default tripwire to the applied project
Review fixes for #616:
- modelDefaultRow and the under-20-edit-turns gate now aggregate only the
target project's sessions (derived from changes[0].path, separators
normalized before dirname), matching the per-project baseline captured at
apply time instead of comparing against all projects.
- baseline.candidateModel labels the candidate explicitly, with a
backward-compatible fallback to metrics key order for existing journals.
- measured model-default rows render a correlation marker instead of a
formatTokens(0) token claim.
- zero-matching-projects now reports an honest project-not-found note; clean
rows route through confidenceFor like every other kind.
- tests: tripwire fires on a same-project regression that global aggregation
would mask (fails on pre-fix code), clean and not-measurable cases,
Windows-separator journal paths with an excluded masking project.
A project's first/bootstrap session is a different kind of work (one-off
scaffolding), not an expensive instance of routine work. While a project is
still young its peer sample is thin, so the leave-one-out average is dominated
by a few routine sessions and the founding session's legitimately high one-off
cost trips the >2x outlier multiplier. Exclude each young project's earliest
costed session from the outlier finding only; mature projects are unaffected so
genuine outliers still surface. Young = fewer than 2x MIN_SESSIONS_FOR_OUTLIER
costed sessions.
Fixes#664
Capture a trailing-14-day before-baseline when a fix is applied and
re-measure it against the post-apply window so optimize can show realized
numbers next to estimates.
- ActionBaseline (windowDays, capturedAt, estimatedTokens, sessions, metrics)
persisted by runAction; captured in the optimize --apply flow and at guard
install time.
- codeburn act report [--json]: applied, not-undone actions older than 3 days,
re-running the detectors over apply-date-to-now (capped 30 days). Per-kind
realized deltas: MCP/archive tokens-per-session times saved sessions with
reverted-by-user detection; read-edit deficit reduction; guard yield split
labeled correlation. Bash cap is marked not measurable (result sizes are not
retained). Low confidence under 20 post-window sessions or past a 2x volume
shift. Realized numbers rounded down, estimate kept visible.
- optimize gains one header line only when a measured action exists, and
appends "(previously applied <date>, re-flagged)" to re-triggered findings.
No change for users with no applied actions.
Reuses scanAndDetect helpers over a date-bounded range; exports the token
constants and read/edit tool sets rather than duplicating the math.
Guard (#605) reuses both as a single source of truth: parseApiCall is the
narrowest per-entry cost+tools extractor for the incremental transcript parse,
and the two session-opener strings become exported constants so the optimize
findings and the guard SessionStart hook can never drift.
Review fixes plus one coordinator amendment on top of the initial
optimize --apply implementation.
- mcp-project-scope no longer strips a server from every projects[*]
container in ~/.claude.json: only the top-level entry and the
finding's cold projects lose it, and the cwd's own config files count
as cold only when the cwd is in the cold list. The plan preview
annotates ~/.claude.json with the project entries that lose the
server.
- unused-mcp findings are now appliable (remove-everywhere mcp-remove
plans, same as low-coverage).
- Notes are rendered under manual findings too, so an all-unparseable
config surfaces its parse error instead of a bare "manual".
- ConfigDocs strips a leading UTF-8 BOM before JSON.parse.
- claude-md plans are excluded from --apply --yes (they write to
cwd/CLAUDE.md); they apply via the interactive picker or an explicit
--only selection, and --yes prints them as skipped with the reason.
- --only with an unknown or not-appliable id errors to stderr with the
run's valid appliable ids and exit code 2.
- EOF at the interactive prompt prints "Nothing applied." and exits 0;
an answer that arrives together with EOF is still honored.
Adds end-to-end tests driving runOptimizeApply over injected stdio and
a fixture home: --yes output with journal ids and undo hints, picker
parsing, --only filtering and validation, EOF, claude-md skip, the
projects[*] over-deletion regression, manual-note rendering, and BOM
configs.
Add stable kebab-case finding ids to every optimize detector and to the
JSON report, then route the config-class findings through the action
journal so they can be applied and undone.
- optimize.ts: id on every WasteFinding and OptimizeJsonReport entry;
appliable findings also carry a machine-readable apply payload (mcp
server list, project-scope keepers, archive names).
- act/plans.ts: planFor(finding) builds concrete, journaled file
mutations for mcp-remove, mcp-project-scope, skill/agent/command
archives, CLAUDE.md rule blocks, and the bash output cap. JSON edits
preserve the rest of the document (2-space indent, trailing newline);
unparseable config files are reported and skipped, not fatal.
- act/optimize-apply.ts: codeburn optimize --apply with a plain-readline
confirm, plus --yes, --dry-run, and --only; prints each journal id and
the undo hint. --apply with --json exits 2.
Tests cover mcp remove/undo, project-scope global-to-project move,
unparseable-file skip, archive collision suffixing, CLAUDE.md marker
idempotency, a byte-identical dry-run tree hash, and a finding-id guard.
Dashboard integrations need machine-readable optimize findings and yield ratios without parsing terminal output. This threads the existing analysis results into conservative JSON serializers while preserving text output as the default.

Three-layer fix for V8 heap exhaustion when parsing heavy session data:
1. Buffer-based readSessionLines (fs-utils.ts): Replace readline with raw
Buffer streaming using Buffer.indexOf(0x0a). Eliminates ConsString trees
that caused OOM when regex-flattening 100MB+ lines. Two-state machine
(ACCUMULATING/SCANNING) skips old lines at ~2KB cost instead of 200MB.
2. Large-line streaming parser (parser.ts): Hand-written JSON scanner for
lines >32KB extracts only cost/token/tool fields without JSON.parse,
avoiding full object graph allocation. Dual string/Buffer paths.
3. Dashboard memory management (dashboard.tsx): Disable auto-refresh for
heavy periods (30d/month/all), clear old dataset before reload via
nextTick to allow GC, prevent overlapping reloads with mutex, lazy
optimize scanning on keypress instead of useEffect.
Also fixes three race conditions in dashboard reload deduplication:
- Early return after nextTick bypassing finally block (permanent mutex lock)
- A->B->A period switching dropping final reload (stale pending)
- Stale pendingReloadRef not cleared when in-flight matches request
Closes#277.
Every paste-style fix now declares an explicit `destination` so users can
tell at a glance whether a suggestion belongs in CLAUDE.md as a permanent
rule, in a one-time session opener, in the current chat as an ask, or in
a shell config file. Previously the prompts had no labeled home and users
were dropping one-time session openers into CLAUDE.md as permanent rules.
Type changes:
- New `PasteDestination` union: `claude-md` / `session-opener` / `prompt`
/ `shell-config`
- `WasteAction.paste` gains `destination?: PasteDestination`
Renderer changes:
- CLI `optimize` command (renderOptimize → renderFinding) prints a
section header above each fix block:
-- Suggested CLAUDE.md addition (permanent rule) ───
-- One-time session opener (do NOT add to CLAUDE.md) ───
-- Ask Claude in the current session ───
-- Add to your shell config ───
-- Run this command ───
- Interactive dashboard (FindingAction in dashboard.tsx) gets the same
treatment so the in-popover findings list reads identically.
Existing fixes retagged appropriately. Two existing prompts that lacked
destination context altogether ("Set a delivery checkpoint at the start
of the next expensive thread", "Start the next expensive thread with a
fresh-context constraint") now read as one-time session openers with a
clear "do not add to CLAUDE.md" hint — the exact failure mode the
reporter described.
Tests:
- Existing `detectJunkReads` test extended to assert the destination tag.
- New regression block walks every detector that emits a paste-style fix
and asserts each one declares a destination — future detectors that
ship without one get caught here.
* Five correctness fixes from multi-agent bug hunt
A multi-agent audit of the codeburn correctness surface found five
real bugs each producing visibly wrong numbers or risking data loss.
All five fixes were validated by parallel review agents and exercised
end-to-end against real session data on this machine.
- src/cli.ts: --refresh <seconds> was using bare parseInt as the
commander callback. Commander invokes the callback as
parseInt(value, previous), so previous becomes the radix:
--refresh 30 was being parsed as parseInt('30', 30) = 90, and
--refresh 60 became NaN. Replaced with parseInteger (already
defined at line 48 with radix locked to 10) at all three sites.
- src/providers/cursor.ts: parseAgentKv was timestamping every
agentKv call as new Date().toISOString() because the Cursor
SQLite schema has no per-message timestamp. Result: every
Cursor agent call regardless of when it happened landed in
today's date bucket. Now uses statSync(dbPath).mtimeMs as a
bounded ceiling so calls land at the actual last-write time of
the Cursor database, not today. Verified locally: a 1904-call
Cursor history with March 22 mtime now correctly bucket into
all-time only and shows 0 calls for today/week/30days.
- src/providers/codex.ts: prev token counters were only updated
inside the cumulative-fallback branch, so a session emitting N
events with last_token_usage followed by one cumulative-only
event computed the next delta against prev=0 and double-counted
the entire cumulative window. Cost could be inflated 10-100x
for any mixed-format Codex session. Now prev advances to the
current cumulative state regardless of which branch ran.
- src/providers/gemini.ts: totalOutput accumulated output+thoughts
while totalThoughts was tracked separately. The result was
outputTokens = output+thoughts AND reasoningTokens = thoughts;
any consumer summing the two double-counted thoughts. Now
totalOutput holds just output, reasoningTokens holds thoughts,
and the cost calc folds thoughts into the output count to keep
pricing correct (Google bills thoughts at the output rate;
calculateCost has no reasoning parameter).
- src/export.ts: exportJson had no safety check before writeFile,
so codeburn export -f json -o ~/important.json would silently
clobber the user's file. CSV path had a marker-file guard; JSON
did not. Now refuses to overwrite a file unless its first 4KB
contain the codeburn schema marker. Uses a streaming partial
read so a large existing file does not OOM Node's ~512MB
string limit. Refuses directories outright.
Skipped intentionally: cursor-auto/copilot-auto/cline-auto/
qwen-auto are aliased to claude-sonnet-4-5. The audit flagged
this as wrong pricing for non-Anthropic auto-routed turns, but
Cursor's "auto" mode does not expose the actual model and any
alternative estimate is equally arbitrary. README already
documents this as a Sonnet-based estimate.
vitest run: 38 files, 529 tests pass.
* Five more correctness fixes from the bug-hunt round
This commit closes out the remaining critical-tier findings from the
multi-agent audit, with one item documented as a known limitation.
- src/providers/cursor.ts: bubble dedup key included mutable
inputTokens/outputTokens. Cursor mutates token counts on the row in
place when streaming completes, so re-parsing the same DB produced
a fresh dedup key per bubble and silently double-counted. Switched
to the SQLite row key (`bubbleId:<unique>`) which is stable per
bubble. Adjusted BubbleRow type and BUBBLE_QUERY_BASE to expose
`key as bubble_key`.
- src/providers/pi.ts: usage fields were destructured non-optionally,
but real Pi/OMP session files sometimes omit individual fields.
`calculateCost(model, undefined, ...)` returned NaN, and that NaN
propagated into every aggregate cost total. Coerce each field to
0 with `?? 0`.
- src/models.ts: getShortModelName and the getModelCosts startsWith
fallback both walked the dictionary in insertion order. A model id
like `gpt-5-mini` could resolve to the entry for `gpt-5` (matched
by startsWith first) and silently get GPT-5's display name and
pricing tier. Iterate longest keys first so more-specific prefixes
win. Tightened the cost fallback's match condition from
`startsWith(key) || startsWith(key + '-')` to require either an
exact match or a `key + '-'` continuation, removing accidental
matches like `gpt-50` against `gpt-5`.
- src/models.ts: calculateCost returned 0 silently for any model
missing from the pricing snapshot. New Anthropic / OpenAI models
shipped between snapshot refreshes look free until the user
notices. Now warns once per unknown model name per process to
stderr. Skips the warning for the `<synthetic>` placeholder so
the noise floor stays low.
- src/yield.ts: revert detection was broken on the canonical case.
Two problems: (1) `subject.toLowerCase().includes('revert')`
matched any commit whose subject mentioned the word ("Add revert
button" was misclassified). (2) The window logic only counted
reverts within the original session's 1-hour boundary, but real
`git revert` commits land in later sessions, so original sessions
always looked productive. Now: getRevertedShas runs once with
`--grep=^This reverts commit` and parses bodies to build a Set of
SHAs that were the target of a revert anywhere in history.
CommitInfo.wasReverted is set when this commit's SHA appears in
that set. categorizeSession then flags a session as reverted when
its in-main commits were later reverted, regardless of when the
revert itself happened.
- src/providers/droid.ts: SKIPPED with comment. Droid records token
usage only at session level. The current behavior splits evenly
across emitted assistant calls and prices all of them at
settings.model (the latest model). For sessions where the user
switched models mid-stream, costs are approximate. Added an
inline comment documenting this; a real fix requires per-message
model data that isn't in the Droid JSONL schema.
Verified end-to-end on this machine:
- vitest run: 38 files, 529 tests pass
- `codeburn report --format json` produces valid JSON
- `codeburn yield -p week` runs without crashing, finds 0 reverts
in the user's recent git history (plausible — fix changed the
detection from "subject contains revert" to "this commit's SHA
appears in a later 'This reverts commit ...' body")
- Stderr now warns for unknown model ids: `openai/gpt-5.3`,
`qwen3.6:35b-a3b-bf16`, `big-pickle`. These previously priced
silently at $0.
* Four high-severity fixes from the bug-hunt round
- src/currency.ts: getExchangeRate wrapped fetchRate and cacheRate in
one try/catch. If fetchRate succeeded but cacheRate threw (disk
full, ENOSPC, no permissions on the cache dir), the catch block
swallowed the error and returned 1. Every cost rendered after that
point became USD-equivalent silently. Now the fetch and the cache
write live in separate paths: a successful fetch returns the rate
even if the persist fails, and the cache-write error is dropped to
a fire-and-forget so transient disk problems do not corrupt the
user's currency display.
- src/cursor-cache.ts: writeFile was non-atomic. Two concurrent
codeburn invocations writing to cursor-results.json could
interleave bytes mid-write, leaving a truncated file that
parsed-error on next read and forced a full SQLite re-scan every
run. Switched to the temp-file + rename pattern with a randomized
temp name so each writer gets its own staging file and the rename
is atomic on POSIX. Crash mid-write also leaves only a leftover
temp file, which gets unlinked in the catch path; the destination
is never half-written.
- mac/.../CodeBurnApp.swift refresh loop on sleep: the loop's
Task.sleep keeps a wakeup pending across system sleep, so on wake
the natural tick fires the same instant the wake observers do.
Combined with didWakeNotification, screensDidWakeNotification, and
the launchd com.codeburn.refresh distributed notification, that
produced 2-3 concurrent CLI spawns within ms of every wake. Now:
willSleepNotification cancels the loop task; didWakeNotification
restarts it. The loop also reads lastRefreshTime and skips its
natural tick if a wake/manual/distributed-notification refresh ran
within the last 5 seconds, coalescing the two sources of refresh
into one CLI spawn per wake event.
- mac/.../CodeBurnApp.swift observeStore: the read closure had an
implicit strong self capture (it accessed store.* without a
capture annotation), pinning self for the lifetime of any
unfired observation. Added [weak self] and a guard to make the
capture explicit. withObservationTracking is one-shot per call,
so there is at most one active subscription at a time; the
earlier audit's claim of an unbounded leak overstated the issue,
but tightening the capture pattern is still cleaner.
Verified:
- vitest run: 38 files, 529 tests pass
- swift build -c release --arch arm64 --arch x86_64: clean, no
diagnostics, no MainActor warnings
- mac/Scripts/package-app.sh dev produces a valid universal bundle
- Menubar launches and runs without crash
* Eleven medium-severity fixes from the bug-hunt round
- src/format.ts formatTokens: guard against Infinity, NaN, and
negative input. Previously a corrupt aggregate could leak into
the UI as the literal strings "NaN" or "Infinity". Negatives now
render as "0" rather than "-500" with no scaling.
- src/cli-date.ts parseDateRangeFlags: the missing-from default
was new Date(0), which opened a 55-year scan from 1970 epoch
whenever the user passed only --to. Default now anchors at 6
months back from now, matching the dashboard's all-time period.
Test updated to assert the new bounded window.
- src/cli-date.ts toPeriod: previously fell back silently to "week"
for any unknown input, so a typo like `-p mounth` produced a
quiet 7-day report while the user thought they were viewing the
month. Now exits with a clear stderr error and exit code 1.
Test updated to assert the loud-failure behavior.
- src/optimize.ts urgencyScore: rebalanced weights so a high-impact
finding with zero observed tokens cannot outrank a medium-impact
finding with millions of tokens. Old 0.7/0.3 split made high+0
(0.70) beat medium+1B (0.65). New 0.5/0.5 split makes medium+1B
(0.75) beat high+0 (0.50). Token normalization lifted to 5M so
the ramp covers a realistic spend range.
- src/models.ts calculateCost: clamp negative or non-finite token
inputs to 0 before pricing. A corrupt JSONL emitting a negative
count would otherwise produce a negative cost that silently
subtracted from real spend in aggregates.
- src/currency.ts convertCost: stop rounding during aggregation.
For zero-fraction currencies (JPY, KRW, CLP) this clamped every
per-session cost to a whole unit before sum, so a project of
1000 sessions averaging ¥0.4 each aggregated to ¥0 instead of
¥400. formatCost still rounds at the display boundary.
- src/config.ts saveConfig: the temp file path was a fixed
`${configPath}.tmp` suffix. Two simultaneous saveConfig calls
(overlapping menubar and CLI runs) raced on the same staging
file and could leave one writer reading partial bytes from the
other. Randomized the temp suffix per call.
- src/providers/antigravity.ts flushCache: the early return on
`!cacheDirty` short-circuited eviction when liveCascadeIds was
supplied but no cascade had been added or updated this run. As
a result, deleted .pb files persisted in the cache forever once
the user stopped writing to it. Eviction now runs whenever
liveCascadeIds is provided, marks the cache dirty if anything
was removed, and only then short-circuits if there is nothing
to write.
- src/daily-cache.ts addNewDays: cap retention at 2 years. The
days array previously merged forever, growing the cache file by
hundreds of bytes per day until JSON parse on every CLI
invocation became measurable. The 6-month UI period plus the
365-day BACKFILL_DAYS bootstrap both fit comfortably inside the
cap, with headroom for a future longer window.
- src/dashboard.tsx useInput: period number keys (1-5) and arrow
keys triggered a reload while the compare view was mounted. The
parent's data state changed underneath the user with no visual
affordance back to the dashboard. Now those keys are gated on
view !== 'compare', and `b` / Esc inside compare returns to the
dashboard.
- mac/.../HeatmapSection.swift formatters: prettyDate, buildTrend
Bars, computeTrendStats, computeForecast, and computeAllStats
each allocated a fresh DateFormatter (and Calendar) on every
call. SwiftUI re-evaluates these views many times per second
during hover scrubbing on the trend chart, so the allocations
were a measurable hot spot. Lifted the yyyy-MM-dd / "EEE MMM d"
/ "MMM d" formatters and the gregorian Calendar to fileprivate
cached singletons.
Two findings from the same bucket were not addressed here:
- UpdateChecker SHA-256 / codesign verification is already
performed by src/menubar-installer.ts (verifyChecksum at line
85). The Swift side just kicks off `codeburn menubar --force`
which runs that path. The audit's claim of missing verification
was a misread.
- NSDistributedNotificationCenter sender validation: the
`com.codeburn.refresh` listener accepts from any sender, but
forceRefresh has a 5-second rate-limit gate so the abuse
ceiling is one CLI spawn per 5 seconds. Mitigations (Mach IPC,
per-launch shared secret) are disproportionate to the impact.
vitest run: 38 files, 529 tests pass.
swift build -c release: clean, no warnings.
* Validator hardenings on the bug-hunt batch
Hoist the per-call sort in getModelCosts and getShortModelName to module
scope so model lookups on the hot path stop reallocating sorted key arrays.
Sanitize the unknown-model stderr warning by stripping C0/C1 controls
and capping length, so a hostile or corrupt JSONL cannot inject terminal
escape sequences via the model field.
Skip the daily-cache prune when newestDate fails to parse. The previous
code produced a NaN cutoff and silently dropped every cached day on the
next merge.
Adds tests locking down the stable resolution of common model names
(gpt-5-mini vs gpt-5, claude-haiku-4-5 vs claude-3-5-haiku, etc.) and
the prune NaN guard.
Adds a low-worth detector to codeburn optimize that flags expensive sessions with weak delivery signals (no edits, repeated retries, or no one-shot edits) when no git/gh delivery command is observed. Priority order is low-worth → context-bloat → outliers; each later detector excludes sessions named by an earlier one so the same session is never listed in three findings. Detection: floor, for no-edit, 3+ retries, regex matches git commit/push and gh pr create/merge but excludes commit-tree/commit-graph and dry-run. Three impact tiers consistent with #246. Token-savings uses full session tokens for no-edit sessions and the retry fraction for edit-with-retry sessions. Supersedes #241 with review fixes. Original implementation by @ozymandiashh.
Adds a context-bloat finding to codeburn optimize that flags sessions where effective input/cache tokens (cache-discounted via existing pricing constants) are large and disproportionate to output. Suggests starting fresh with a tightened context. Sessions flagged here are excluded from the cost-outlier finding to avoid double-listing. Growth-from-previous-session callouts are suppressed when the predecessor is more than 7 days back. Three impact tiers (low/medium/high). Supersedes #242 with review fixes from real-data probe. Original implementation by @ozymandiashh.
- Use 1.25x multiplier for cache-write tokens to match Anthropic's
actual pricing (was incorrectly using 1x)
- Shell-quote server names in `claude mcp remove` fix text to prevent
issues with unusual server names
Adds a per-tool optimizer finding for MCP servers whose schema is loaded
on every turn but rarely invoked. Builds on the existing server-level
`detectUnusedMcp` (zero invocations) by reporting partial-use cases:
"loaded 54 tools, called 0" or "loaded 26 tools, called 2 (8% coverage)".
Inventory comes from Claude Code's JSONL `attachment.deferred_tools_delta`
entries: `addedNames` lists the exact tools available at that turn,
including every fully-qualified `mcp__<server>__<tool>` name. We union
across all delta entries in a session (not just the first) because tool
availability can change mid-session when the user reloads MCP config or
a subagent inherits a different tool set. Names that don't match the
`mcp__<server>__<tool>` shape with both segments non-empty are rejected
at extraction so downstream `split('__')` consumers can't be poisoned.
Token-savings estimates are cache-aware. MCP tool schemas live in the
cached prefix of the system prompt: a session pays the full input price
on each cache-creation turn (rebuilds happen every ~5 minutes of
inactivity) and the cache-read discount on subsequent turns. Each call's
contribution is capped at its observed `cacheCreationInputTokens` /
`cacheReadInputTokens` so we never claim more MCP overhead than the
call's own cache buckets could contain.
When multiple servers are flagged, costing happens in a single combined
pass: the per-call cap applies to the total unused-schema budget across
all flagged servers, not per server. Two flagged servers cannot both
independently claim the same call's cache bucket, which would otherwise
overstate `tokensSaved` and misclassify findings as high impact.
A session counts toward `loadedSessions` (and toward the cost estimate)
only if its observed inventory included the server. Pure invocation-only
sessions, where the server appears in `mcpBreakdown` or `call.mcpTools`
without any matching `deferred_tools_delta`, do not satisfy the
`>= 2 sessions` threshold on their own. The same invariant applies in
`estimateMcpSchemaCost` so the two passes agree.
Coverage is computed against the inventory only: invocations of names
not present in any observed inventory (older config, hallucinated tool,
typo) do not inflate `toolsInvoked` and cannot drive `unusedCount`
negative. `toolsInvoked` is derived as `inventory.size - unusedTools.length`
to keep both numbers consistent.
`detectUnusedMcp` and the new detector are explicitly disjoint:
`detectUnusedMcp` skips servers that the coverage detector will report,
not every server that happens to be in any inventory, so a small
inventoried-but-uninvoked server below the coverage thresholds still
gets flagged as "configured but never called."
Thresholds for the coverage finding:
- > 10 tools available (small servers are noise)
- < 20% coverage
- >= 2 sessions with observed inventory
- High impact when total effective tokens >= 200_000 or >= 3 servers flagged
Smoke-tested on a real account: 7 servers flagged across 93 sessions
(`office-word-mcp` 0/54, `notebooklm-mcp` 0/38, `office-ppt-mcp` 0/37,
`excel-mcp-server` 0/25, `github-mcp-server` 2/26, `peekaboo` 3/22, plus
`claude_ai_Asana`). Combined-cap costing keeps `tokensSaved` honest.
Changes:
- src/types.ts: optional `mcpInventory: string[]` on `SessionSummary`.
Provider-agnostic field; currently populated only by the Claude parser.
- src/parser.ts: `extractMcpInventory` walks all entries, validates
fully-qualified names, returns sorted unique list. `buildSessionSummary`
passes it through; field is omitted when empty so JSON exports stay
clean.
- src/optimize.ts: `aggregateMcpCoverage`, `estimateMcpSchemaCost`
(single- and multi-server signatures), `detectMcpToolCoverage`. Wired
into `scanAndDetect`. `detectUnusedMcp` updated to disjoint with the
new detector.
- tests/mcp-coverage.test.ts: 23 cases covering aggregation, costing,
combined-cap behaviour, threshold gates, invocation-only-session
filtering, foreign-tool invocations, cache rebuild events, write+read
on the same call, multi-server pluralisation.
- tests/parser-mcp-inventory.test.ts: 12 cases for the JSONL extractor
including malformed name rejection and tolerant attachment parsing.
- CHANGELOG.md: entry under Unreleased / Added (CLI).
Closes#2
readViaStream (used for files ≥8 MB) reconstructs the full file as a
single string via chunks.join('\n'), giving the same peak allocation as
readFile. Callers then call content.split('\n'), creating a second copy.
With FILE_READ_CONCURRENCY=16 and files up to 128 MB this can exhaust
the V8 heap (~6 GB theoretical peak).
readSessionLines already exists as a proper async generator that yields
one line at a time. Switch both hot-path callers to iterate it directly
so the full file string is never held in memory.
Adds two tests: a spy test confirming readSessionLines is called (not
readSessionFile), and a 500-entry correctness test.
Fixes#131
