three complaints, one root cause and two small ones.
THE TRANSCRIPT CAME BACK EMPTY because the client read `/session/<id>/message`
and this build answers that with `[]` — 200, well-formed, and wrong. the same
session returns 4 messages on `/api/session/<id>/message`. an empty transcript is
indistinguishable from a new conversation, so reopening a chat said "send a
message to start" and every message the owner had sent looked deleted.
that also explains the third complaint. the model was read from the assistant
turns, so no messages meant no model, so the detail reported a bare `opencode`,
which the composer cannot match — and it fell back to claude code and sonnet. it
now also reads the model off the session record, which is populated before any
assistant turn lands.
the message shape moved with the endpoint: `type` where it was `info.role`,
`content` where it was `parts`, and a user message's text sits on the message
rather than in a part. both shapes are accepted rather than pinned to today's
build — this reader is the only thing between a working transcript and a chat
that looks erased, and a host on a different opencode should lose features, never
its history.
AND THE ORDER WAS BACKWARDS. the endpoint returns newest first and nothing
downstream re-sorted, so the answer sat above the question that produced it.
sorted here, because this is the only place that still has timestamps.
NAMING: opencode is meant to title a session from its contents and does not, on
this surface — sessions stay at `New session - <timestamp>` through a finished
turn and past it, which is why the list was a column of "(untitled)".
`isPlaceholderOpenCodeTitle` exists precisely because that name leaks into the UI.
so the sidecar names a NEW session from the first line of its first prompt, which
is what the claude side shows. a resumed session keeps what it has, and if
opencode ever does title one it writes after us and wins.
verified live on the session that prompted this: 4 messages, in order, model
opencode/kimi-k3.

An opencode session in a git directory never appeared in /chat. The list read GET /session,
which answers for ONE project — the one the request's directory resolves to, and with no
x-opencode-directory header that is the serve's own cwd, DATA_PATH/opencode_server. Not a git
checkout, so it resolves to the catch-all project `global`, along with every other non-git
directory. That is why the default chat dir listed fine and nothing looked broken: a cwd that
IS a checkout gets its own project, and chat pwds are checkouts.
Measured on the live serve before changing anything: /session returned 8 sessions, /api/session
13, the five missing ones being an old project's. A session created in a git directory came back
0 times from /session and 1 from /api/session.
/api/session spans projects, so that is now the list. The per-id reads stay on /session — they
answer for any session regardless of project, verified 200 with and without the header.
The trap, and the reason listSessions normalises rather than returning the response: the two
surfaces disagree in silence. /session carries the working directory as top-level `directory`,
/api/session as `location.directory` with no top-level field, inside a {data: …} envelope.
Swapping the endpoint without the mapping leaves `directory` undefined on every session, which
the cwd filter turns into an empty list — the same shape as the metadata.officer.cwd bug this
filter already had once.
Verified against the live serve: with the mapping, a session in a git directory and one in the
general chat dir both resolve to their cwd, and every session carries a directory.

Phase 1 item 7, done in the order the parity doc asks: read the dead design into a note, then delete it.
`docs/opencode-serve-path.md` records what `event-mapper.ts` and the SSE half of `client.ts` did, and
what a rebuild would want back from them — the delta model and tool-state transitions, which are exactly
parity Phase 3's token streaming rather than new work.
Deleted: `event-mapper.ts` entirely, and `subscribe`/the shared `GET /event` SSE loop, `createSession`,
`postMessage`, `abort` from the client, plus `isServerHealthy` from server-manager. All had no callers.
`client.ts` goes 200-odd lines to 99. What stays is the REST reads the chat list and transcript use:
listSessions, getSession, getMessages, deleteSession, renameSession.
While in there, Phase 2's blocking question turned out to be cheap to settle, so it is answered rather
than left open. The review asked whether the serve can take a per-request directory, since without one a
serve-based turn path would reintroduce the single-directory coupling that shelved this work:
POST /session?directory=/tmp/oc-phase2-probe -> directory: "/tmp/oc-phase2-probe" honoured
POST /session with directory in the BODY -> directory: "<serve cwd>" ignored
It is a query parameter on every /session* route. So the coupling is gone on both architectures and the
blocker is cleared. The note does NOT start the migration: which of the three options to take is a
product call, and it lays them out rather than presuming one.
The first probe put `directory` in the body and appeared to prove the opposite. Recorded in the note,
because it is the obvious way to test this and it gives a confident wrong answer.

Two defects, one cause: the session type declared two fields opencode 1.17.9 does not return.
`GET /session` returns `directory` at the top level. There is no `location` object and no `metadata`.
Re-verified by reading the live server rather than the type.
So `metadata.officer.cwd` was compared against `undefined` for every session and the list filter matched
nothing — and since `cwdOf` substitutes a default when no `?cwd=` is given, the `!cwd` escape never fired
either. There was no configuration in which an OpenCode session appeared in /chat. Confirmed against the
running server: 7 sessions present, 0 returned, and the `OpenCode` badge in SessionList was unreachable
code. Now 1 of 7 is listed under the default chat dir, the other 6 correctly filtered to their own
directories.
And `location?.directory ?? ''` was likewise always '', so resuming a session reported no cwd and
relocated the conversation to the default chat dir — which matters because OpenCode rebuilds its
working-directory system prompt every turn. Detail now reads the session's own record via a new
`getSession`, alongside the transcript.
`officerMeta` and the `metadata` tag are gone rather than fixed: the only writer of that tag
(`client.createSession`) has no callers, because the sidecar creates sessions with `opencode run --dir`.
Tagging would have been a second source of truth for something `directory` already answers.
docs/opencode-parity.md B1 and B3. Its suggested fix — derive from `location.directory` — was written
against a field that does not exist; the doc asked for the version to be checked first, and this is why.

Simpler + more efficient than the previous per-turn GET /session: the client already
has the selected cwd, so it now sends it on every message (it's constant for a session).
The server uses msg.cwd directly for OpenCode's per-turn working-directory system prompt,
and still tags the cwd at creation for listing. Drops the getSession round-trip.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
msg.cwd only rides the first message, but OpenCode's system prompt is rebuilt every
turn — so turn 2+ reverted to general_chat_sessions and the model fell back to the
server's real cwd. Fix: the cwd is bound at creation (metadata.officer.cwd), so for an
existing/resumed session read it back (new client.getSession) and reuse it for the
system prompt every turn. Also make the prompt explicit that it overrides any other
working directory the environment reports.
Verified: a session created with a cwd reads the same cwd back on a later turn.

OpenCode can't set a real per-session cwd (every session runs in the fixed server's
dir), so we tell the model its working directory via a system prompt appended to
OpenCode's own — sent as a system message, so it never appears in the visible chat
(verified against source + live). Claude doesn't need this (it honors cwd natively).
- client.postMessage(…, system?) forwards a `system` string on the message.
- send-opencode builds the Officer prompt from `workingDir` and sends it every turn.
- websocket: workingDir = the resolved cwd, except the general /chat (whose cwd is the
claude_sessions grouping placeholder) uses the user's home.
Verified live: with the prompt, the model reports the injected dir as its cwd.

OpenCode has no per-session directory (every session runs in the fixed server's cwd),
so sessions from every context (/chat pwd, email account, project) all landed in one
list. Now each session is tagged on creation with its logical cwd via the free-form
session `metadata`: { officer: { cwd } } — API-settable, round-trips on list+detail,
never touched by opencode core (confirmed by source dive + live test).
- client.createSession(metadata?) sends `metadata`; adds OfficerSessionMeta + officerMeta() helper.
- send-opencode tags new sessions with { officer: { cwd } } (the resolved chat cwd).
- websocket: pass the full resolved cwd for every context (not just non-/chat).
- listOpenCodeSessions(cwd?) filters by metadata.officer.cwd; chat.ts passes the request cwd.
Verified live: sessions tagged with distinct cwds list only under their own cwd.

OpenCode has no per-session `directory` — a session inherits the server's cwd (POST
/session ignores extra fields). So the previous "pass directory on create" was a no-op
and every OpenCode chat ran in the fixed server's dir (~), including the email chat.
Fix: hybrid server model. server-manager.ensureServer(cwd?, home?) returns the fixed
pm2 server (OPENCODE_SERVER_URL, :4096) for the general /chat, but for a context-scoped
cwd (email account dir, project dir) it spawns/pools an `opencode serve` rooted at that
directory — so the session's agent actually operates there. send-opencode passes the
resolved cwd + the user's home; createSession drops the ignored directory param.
Verified live: a cwd-scoped server reports the session directory as the target dir
(not ~), while /chat still uses :4096.

The email chat's working directory now resolves to
DATA_PATH/<owner>/email_accounts/<accountEmail> (created if missing), so the agent
operates in the selected account's dir (emails.db, attachment_cache, …).
- websocket.ts: new resolveChatCwd — context 'email' → the account dir (via a new
resolveEmailCwd), 'chat' → the pwd/claude_sessions dir, else the given cwd. Both the
Claude and OpenCode handlers use it. The account defaults to the owner's first enabled
account for now; the account selector will pass it as contextId later.
- OpenCode honors the cwd again: send-opencode passes it as the session `directory`
(client.createSession(directory?)) for context-scoped chats; the general /chat still
omits it and uses the fixed server's default project. Verified against the live server
that directory-bound sessions create + list.
No frontend change — the /email panel already sends context:'email'.

The per-cwd `opencode serve` spawning is replaced by a single fixed server
(http://127.0.0.1:4096, OPENCODE_SERVER_URL) managed by pm2 — added as
`officer-opencode` in ecosystem.config.cjs (cwd = home).
Root-cause fix for the empty model selector: list-models shelled out to
`opencode models`, which failed at runtime on the deployed server (the picker got
only Claude tiers). It now reads the fixed server's GET /config/providers over HTTP —
11ms and reliable — so the curated OpenCode models (Big Pickle, Claude Haiku) show up.
- server-manager.ts — drops spawning; exposes OPENCODE_SERVER_URL + a health check.
- client.ts — createSession no longer binds a directory (sessions live in the one
server's project).
- send-opencode.ts / opencode-sessions.ts / chat.ts — use the fixed server; drop the
cwd/home plumbing. Session list/load/delete/rename now hit :4096.
Verified end-to-end against the live server: model list, streaming turn, session
list, and transcript load all work with no spawning.

/chat's session list, transcript load, delete, and rename now span both harnesses.
- opencode-sessions.ts — REST-backed reader (OpenCode's SQLite via its HTTP API, never
the DB): listOpenCodeSessions / loadOpenCodeSession / delete / rename, returning the
same shapes as the Claude reader, tagged harness:'opencode'. A serve is directory-
scoped, so listing a cwd = asking the serve rooted there. Transcript rebuild maps
user/assistant/tool parts and drops reasoning (parity with the delta filter).
- client.ts — adds listSessions/getMessages/deleteSession/renameSession over /session/*.
- chat.ts — /sessions merges both (newest first); /sessions/:id, DELETE, and
/title route by id shape (ses_ = OpenCode). ClaudeSessionSummary gains an optional
`harness` tag.
- send-opencode.ts — resuming from history: when the sessionKey is itself a ses_ id,
reuse that OpenCode session instead of creating a new one.
- SessionList.tsx — shows an "OpenCode" badge for OpenCode sessions.
Verified end-to-end against a live serve: list (5 sessions, tagged), load (transcript
rebuilt, reasoning filtered), and rename all work. Phases 1-3 complete; needs a restart.

Introduces an OpenCode chat harness alongside Claude, driven over HTTP + SSE against
a persistent `opencode serve`, emitting the same ChatEvent contract so the entire
chat UI and createEventHandler pipeline are unchanged.
New servers/api/chat/opencode/:
- server-manager.ts — one warm `opencode serve` per cwd (free port, health-gated,
respawn on exit; HOME set so it reads the user's ~/.local/share/opencode auth).
Binary pinned via OPENCODE_BIN (installed is 1.17.9; the 1.18.4 upgrade never landed).
- client.ts — per-server HTTP calls (/session create, /message, /abort) + a single
reconnecting `/event` SSE stream demuxed to per-session listeners.
- event-mapper.ts — SSE → ChatEvent. Verified live against 1.17.9: message.part.delta
→ delta, tool parts → tool:start/tool:result, message.updated → cost, session.idle
→ result. Crucially, deltas are gated on partID being a `text` part (declared before
its deltas) so the model's reasoning — which also streams as field:'text' — is
dropped, matching the Claude harness hiding thinking.
- state.ts — sessionKey ↔ opencode ses_ id map for resume.
channels/send-opencode.ts — the OpenCode analog of send-claude-code: ensure serve,
create/reuse session, subscribe, post the message, forward mapped events; kill = abort.
websocket.ts — replaces the Claude-only coercion with harness routing:
provider 'claude-code' → Claude sidecar, everything else → handleOpenCodeChat.
handleStop aborts the right harness.
Verified end-to-end (streaming text, tool call/result, cost, abort) against a
throwaway serve using the free deepseek model — no prod restart involved. UI-level
model selection + session history follow in Phases 2–3.
