This PR:
- Adds retainedTail to compaction entries in the new agent harness so we don't have to walk up the tree for the 2000 tokens before compaction,
- Changes getPathToRoot to getPathToRootOrCompaction to only load until last compaction, as unnecessary to access all nodes where it is called,
- Adds a SQLite storage backend, in a separate packages/session-backend-sqlite, with a migration system and schemas as per on-site discussions: sessions to match session header messages (except for metadata, which I couldn't understand what it's used for or where it gets written, so I omitted it), session_entries for shared entry types as columns plus payload as a json for what remains, session_sequences to represent the append-only, serialized nature of the jsonl files, branch_entries to attribute nodes to branches (relationship one-to-many), and session_materialized with the session info (see /session in TUI) to act as a "cache" or quick-access for costs, message count, token info, labels, session name, and model-thinking-level config (e.g. for fast resume).
- This is compatible with the new agent harness Session abstraction.
* add usage info to branch summary entries
* add usage to compaction entries
* allow custom tools to report llm usage in tool results
* allow observing and patching usage in tool_result hooks
* agent-harness: save usage in entries
for compaction, branch summaries and tool results
AgentHarnessOptions.models is required; the harness stream path,
compaction, and branch summarization go through models.streamSimple()/
completeSimple() instead of the compat globals. getApiKeyAndHeaders
stays and wins per-field over provider-resolved auth, but is no longer
required: without it, requests resolve through provider auth.
compact()/generateSummary()/generateBranchSummary() take a Models
parameter; explicit apiKey becomes optional. StreamFn is redefined
structurally (Models.streamSimple satisfies it), dropping the compat
type dependency from agent types.
Harness tests build per-file Models collections with fauxProvider()
and unique provider ids instead of mutating the global api-registry.
The root barrel is now core-only and side-effect free: types,
createModels/createProvider, auth substrate, lazyStream/lazyApi, faux,
utils. Generated catalogs, api-registry, env-api-keys, images, global
stream functions, and per-API lazy wrappers leave the root.
New @earendil-works/pi-ai/compat preserves the old surface verbatim as
a strict superset of the root: api-dispatch stream/complete with env
key injection, the builtin registration side effect (skip-if-present so
it cannot clobber earlier overrides), deprecated getModel/getModels/
getProviders aliases of the new getBuiltin* reads in providers/all,
lazy api wrappers + setBedrockProviderModule, and image generation.
Compat dies with the coding-agent ModelManager migration.
Packaging: exports map gains ./compat, ./providers/*, ./api/*;
sideEffects array lists only the effectful modules.
Old-global imports across agent/coding-agent/examples and pi-ai tests
switch to /compat (path-only; compat is a superset). The coding-agent
extension loader resolves the pi-ai ROOT specifier to compat, so
existing user extensions using the old global API keep working at
runtime until compat is removed. vitest configs alias /compat to src;
browser smoke imports old globals from /compat.
