`UsageDelta` gains `prefillMs`, llama-server's own `timings.prompt_ms`, so the
footer under a finished reply is "read 9.5s · 50.3 tok/s · 3:00 PM". Prefill is
the half of a turn that was invisible and is often the larger: measured on the
0.6B here, 1m 4s for the first turn after a model loads against 22ms for the
next, whose prompt the server still had cached.
The clock moves to the end of the line. Everything in front of it is a
provider's own measurement, so a session on another provider has fewer of them
or none, and a reader who has learned where the time is should not have to find
it again because the model changed. The costs grow leftwards into the space
instead, and a test asserts every shape of the line ends with the same thing.
Verified on the emulator against a real llama session: three replies reading
"read 1m 4s · 193 tok/s · 3:54 PM", "read 25ms · 308 tok/s · 3:54 PM" and
"read 22ms · 194 tok/s · 3:54 PM", with the clock in one column.

A llama.cpp session's `reasoning_content` becomes `Event::Thinking` deltas
closed by an `Event::ThinkingDone` carrying the span the driver measured, and
the phone draws it as a card of its own: "Thinking" with the spinner a running
command has, then "Thought for 12.4s". Deliberately not a tool call, so a run
of calls cannot collapse the reasoning into "Called 6 tools"; the reasoning is
also kept out of the next prompt, which `conversation` already ignored.
`UsageDelta` gains `tokensPerSecond`, the provider's own figure or nothing --
llama.cpp reports `timings.predicted_per_second` and the coding CLIs report no
such thing -- and a finished reply carries a small line under it saying when it
was sent and, where there is one, how fast it came out: "3:00 PM · 149 tok/s".
The compact usage bar drops the provider's name for the window and puts its
length after the time left instead: "42% · 3h 20m left / 5h".
Three things that had to come with it: the transcript coalesces runs of
thinking deltas as it does reply deltas, so one block is one row of a page
rather than a page of its own; `joinPages` welds a block cut by a page boundary
(`healSplitThinking`), since the half with no ending spun for ever; and
`UsageDelta` now reaches the fold, which is what carries the rate to the reply.
Verified on the emulator against a real Qwen3-0.6B session and the echo rig's
new `/think [seconds]`: the spinner while it runs, "Thought for 1.4s" and
"2:54 PM · 149 tok/s" after, the reasoning on tapping the card, and the usage
bar reading "42% · 3h 19m left / 5h".

A run of adjacent calls is drawn as one collapsed card, which hid the one
thing worth seeing without opening anything: the command the session is
running right now. It is a row of its own while it runs and folds back into
the run when it ends.
Grouping stays a display decision, so the pieces a running call cuts a run
into are keyed there. The first piece keeps the run's name -- that name is
what survives a page of history landing in front of it -- and later pieces
take their own first call's id behind it, since the call a run was named
after can itself be the one running.
The echo rig's /tools gap now runs between a call's start and its end rather
than between one call and the next, which is where a real session's time goes
and what makes the running state observable at all.
Checked with ktfmtFormat, compileDebugKotlin, testDebugUnitTest (new
ToolRowsTest) and lintDebug, cargo fmt/clippy/test, and on the emulator
against the sandbox: "Called 2 tools" with the live Bash card beneath it.
A backgrounded command has no subagent, so there is no second transcript for
its report to live in and its own tool card is the only record of it anywhere
-- and until the task notification arrives that card is showing the launch
result, which says the command is running. It was left saying that for ever.
The report now updates the call's own row (`Event::ToolUpdate` against its
tool_use id), so the card ends up holding what became of the command instead
of a claim nothing was ever going to correct. That includes the endings that
carry no summary: those are exactly the ones that went wrong, and a stale
"running in background" reads worst on them, so they say the status word
rather than nothing. A task with a subagent behind it is untouched and its
report stays where it was, in that subagent's own transcript.
Echo grew `/background [seconds]` for the shape end to end: the Bash call, the
launch result, a turn that ends `waiting`, and the completion arriving later
to correct the card and start a second turn.
Verified on the emulator: the card reads `Background command "sleep 5 && echo
done" completed (exit code 0)` where it had said "Command running in background
with ID: ...". 172 server tests, ktfmt, clippy, rustfmt, Android lint and the
JVM unit tests clean.

A row per finished background task is a screenful of dividers about work the
reader was not asking after, and one of them turned out to be a whole shell
command drawn as centred prose, because its words came from somewhere with no
reason to keep them short. `Event::TaskNote` is gone entirely, along with the
row that drew it. A subagent's closing report is recorded as that subagent's
own transcript's closing text and is read in the subcard, which is where it
was already going; what the parent gets a row for is a message a subagent
genuinely sends it, which arrives by the peer path and has had one all along.
What remains is the actual defect and the smallest thing that fixes it. The
fold still refuses to grow a settled reply, so a turn boundary is always a
message boundary, and where two replies then abut it puts a `TurnBreak`
between them: a hairline, no words, no colour. Made by the fold rather than
sent by the server, because it is not something that happened -- it is the
boundary between two things that did. `joinPages` puts one in at a page seam,
which the fold never gets to see.
The task notification is still what closes a task in `Status::Waiting`'s
bookkeeping, and the registry lookup that recognises one this translator never
saw start is what makes that work for a session adopted across a restart.
Verified on the emulator: three replies, three rules, and nothing about the
helpers anywhere in the parent. 170 server tests, 85 JVM tests, ktfmt, clippy,
rustfmt and Android lint clean.

Two corrections to the previous commit.
A subagent's closing report belongs in the subagent's transcript, which is
where it already is; drawing it as a card in the parent's put the same
paragraph in two places for a reader who did not ask for it. The row is a
divider now -- a boundary, which is what the transcript actually needed there
-- closed, saying only what reported and how it went. Opening it shows the
report anyway, since leaving the conversation to read one line has its own
cost, and a backgrounded command has no transcript of its own so this is the
only place its report exists at all: that one names itself from its summary
and has nothing left to open. `TranscriptDivider` grew a `trailing` slot for
the chevron rather than the row growing its own copy of the rules.
And the status was wrong for a session that was already running before the
update, which is every session when the backend is replaced under it.
Adoption picks a session's stdout back up from a recorded offset, so the
`task_started` lines for subagents launched earlier are behind it and the
translator never saw them -- it started with an empty set and reported `idle`
with a subagent plainly still working. `Subagents::any_open` reads the
directory instead, which is a measurement rather than bookkeeping and is right
for a session this process did not start. Both sources are kept and neither
subsumes the other: the translator's own set is the only thing that knows
about a backgrounded *command*, which has no subagent to be found. The same
pair decides whether an ending has already been reported, so a task that began
before the restart still gets its divider.
Echo's helpers now record their report as their own subagent's closing text,
the way the real driver does, so the fixture has the shape being tested.
Verified on the emulator: three dividers closed, one opened to its report, and
each reply drawn as its own message. 170 server tests, ktfmt, clippy, rustfmt,
Android lint and the JVM unit tests all clean.

A turn started by something with no row of its own -- a subagent reporting
back, a peer message the CLI only owns up to at the end -- met the previous
reply with nothing between it, and the fold grew that reply rather than
starting a new one. Two answers were drawn as one paragraph, running together
mid-sentence with not even a space between them. The fold now refuses to grow
a settled reply, and `joinPages` carries the same rule across a page boundary.
The other half is the row. `Event::TaskNote` records a background task
reporting back -- a subagent that finished, or a backgrounded command -- with
its title, how it ended and what it said; `TaskNoteRow` draws it as a card,
since somebody said this, and its own row rather than an update to the Task
call's, which is above everything the session has said since. Reported once
however many of the CLI's two lifecycle shapes arrive.
`SessionStatus::Waiting` is a session whose own turn is over while work it
started is not. `Idle` means "waiting for a person" and this means the
opposite, so reporting it as idle sent a "finished" notification at the one
moment that was untrue. Drawn as "waiting" in `waitingColor`; the queue and
the held-command boundary release on either end-of-turn status, so a message
sent while a subagent runs is not held until it finishes.
And a usage limit the account hits inside a subagent now reaches the session
as well as the subagent's transcript. `resume.rs` can only schedule against a
session, and a background Task outliving its parent's turn is the ordinary
case, so auto-resume was doing nothing at all for it.
The status word and its colour were two `when`s on two screens, and the second
missed `waiting` silently; they are `sessionStatusWord`/`sessionStatusColour`
now. Echo's `/subagent n` reproduces the whole shape, staggered a second
apart. Verified on the emulator against the sandbox: 169 server tests, ktfmt,
clippy, rustfmt, Android lint and the JVM unit tests all clean.

A subagent is a second transcript owned by a session, in the same event
model, with no process and no controls. The claude translator routes lines
carrying parent_tool_use_id to a per-subagent translator and transcript
under <session>/subagents/<tool_use_id>; three routes expose the list, a
transcript page and the SSE stream. Echo grows /subagent [n] as the rig.
On the phone a card with subagents ends in a chevron expander, collapsed by
default, opening to outlined subcards styled like dev-updater's components;
a subcard opens SessionScreen in read-only form, addressed through
TranscriptAddress so paging, cache and stream are shared.

Off by default and per session: it spends quota the moment quota exists,
with nobody watching, which is not a thing a default may decide. Switched
on from the session settings dialog, with the message it sends editable
("continue" unless something else is typed).
Running out of quota becomes a state rather than an error. The Claude
driver recognises its dialect's sentence -- `Claude AI usage limit
reached|1788546972` -- and reports `LimitReached` with the reset time it
gave; nothing above a driver matches on a string. The transcript draws it
as a divider, like a clear or a compaction.
The schedule is a plan to *ask*, never a plan to send. Both reset times
available are untrustworthy in the direction that matters -- the dialect's
is written when the turn fails, the endpoint's moves when the window does
-- so the wait ends in a question to the usage meter, and only `ok` with
no window at 100% sends anything. A window still spent reschedules to its
own reset time, which is what makes a limit that lifts late wait longer
and one that lifts early resume sooner. A meter that cannot be asked is a
longer wait too, never a send. A day after the limit was hit the wait
gives up and says so in the transcript, so a machine that can never be
asked is not retried for ever.
The schedule is persisted on the session: a five-hour window outlasts a
backend restart, and a wait forgotten across one never comes back.
Driven end to end with echo, never a real account: `/limit [minutes]`
reports the same event a real driver does and `/usage` sets what the meter
answers, deliberately separate so the two can disagree. The wait moved
from the dialect's two minutes to the meter's seven when the meter changed
its mind, and the message went out on the first check after the meter came
back under the limit.
Also makes the settings dialog scrollable, which these two controls made
necessary: at a 1.5x system font it clipped the last of them with nothing
on screen to say so.

The rate-limit bar answered a question about an account, and picked the
answer by machine. One machine runs echo, the Claude CLI and a local
model side by side, so every echo session on it drew the CLI's five-hour
window: a quota that session cannot spend and could never run down. A
session now names its meter (`usageProvider`, from
`DriverKind::usage_provider`, which `usage::providers_for` reads too so
the two lists cannot disagree), and the phone matches on machine *and*
provider. Nothing meters echo or llama, and nothing at all is drawn --
including while the first fetch is out, since "checking" under a session
that turns out to meter nothing is a row the screen then withdraws.
Echo gets a meter it can be *told* about instead: `/usage 42`,
`/usage 95 20`, `/usage 42 never`, `/usage notloggedin`,
`/usage unreachable`, `/usage failed`, `/usage off`. Those states cost
real quota to arrange, which is why none of them had been looked at.
And llama.cpp runs wherever a setup says, which was the last of phase 5.
`Transport::reserve_port` is the second half of what a transport is --
"run this" plus "reach this port" -- returning the port the server binds
there and the port that reaches it here, and `Launch::reaching` puts the
`-L` tunnel on the connection that already carries the command. Three
things that came out of building it:
- A forwarded launch gets a pty and every other one keeps `-T`. Killing
the ssh client ends a CLI by closing the stdin it reads; llama-server
never reads its stdin, so the same kill left it running on the far
machine with the model loaded -- one orphan per stopped session.
- The model is looked for on the machine that will serve it, at that
machine's own models directory, so `GET /setups/{id}/models` is what
the spawn screen offers rather than the backend's own downloads.
- The readiness poll watches the process, not only the port: a model
that will not load exits in a second and would otherwise have been
reported as "gave up after 300s". The failure carries the log's tail.
Exercised end to end against this VM over ssh to itself: spawn, load,
answer, outlive a backend restart, be adopted, answer again, and stop --
with both the ssh client and the far llama-server gone afterwards. The
local path, the Claude bar and the spawn screen checked on the emulator.

The markdown had accumulated a lot that was stale rather than wrong.
PLAN.md still described pi as the llama.cpp harness, a refcounted
LlamaServerManager, and a providers-by-hosts cross-product, all of which
were superseded or never built; it also carried a second copy of the HTTP
table that routes.rs owns. EXPLORER.md and TRANSCRIPT_CACHE.md held
implementation checklists for work that has since landed. AGENTS.md
restated most of PLAN.md's design instead of being the working-notes
layer it says it is. 3225 lines of markdown to 2180, with the stale
sections gone rather than reworded.
On the server, comments explaining what the code already says are out and
the ones recording a constraint, a measurement or an incident are kept but
cut to a few lines each: 5504 comment lines to 4586.
Four doc comments in session/mod.rs, and one each in process.rs and
usage.rs, had drifted onto the item above the one they describe --
functions were reordered without them, so `stop_session`'s doc sat on
`set_session_cwd`, `stat_of`'s on `struct Stat`, and `UsageMonitor`'s on
`type Cached`. Each is back on its own item.
routes.rs's module table also claimed later phases would add `/hosts`,
which setups replaced.
cargo test (127 passed), clippy --all-targets and fmt are clean.

Attachments were images only. Now any file can be attached: from the file
chooser behind the "+" menu, or from Android's share sheet, which the app
is now in. An image still goes to the model as a picture; anything else is
stored under its own name (`<hex>-<name>`, cleaned by `safe_file_name`)
and the Claude driver ends the message with `Attached file: /abs/path`,
since the CLI reads files by path and a model cannot be shown a trace. The
user-message field is renamed `images` -> `attachments` on both sides,
with a serde alias reading the rows written before. A share arrives before
anyone has said which session it is for, so it is held in AppRoot with a
banner on the list until a session takes it; an open session takes it at
once. Unreadable shares are reported beside the composer, not thrown.
The tool card crashed the app when opened on a command holding a quoted
glob such as `-path '*/.git/*'`: highlights 1.1.0's shell lexer answers
`x '*/a/*'` with a span whose end is before its start, and AnnotatedString
refuses the range. Such spans are dropped; the library is the place for
the fix. The echo driver gains `/bash <command>` so a card with a given
command can be produced on the emulator.
ui-sandbox.sh's token salvage read the tokens block's close only at a line
start, ran past the compact `),],` the server writes, and copied `setups`
into the new config twice, which the server then refused.

The live Claude Code path only learns a turn was another agent's when
the turn ends -- the whole of the message arrives as an `origin` object
on the `result` -- so the note was appended after everything it caused,
and the transcript showed the answer above the question.
It cannot be recorded in place: by the time anyone knows, the reply is
already written, and the transcript is append-only. So the event carries
where it belongs instead. `PeerMessage` gains `turnStart`, the seq of
the status that opened its turn, stamped by the pump -- the only thing
that knows a seq and the only thing that sees every driver's turns. The
phone gives the note that seq, so it sorts into place rather than being
drawn out of order at the end. A status draws no row, so there is
nothing for it to collide with and the list stays sorted, which the
scroll anchor and paging both depend on.
Absent where there is nothing to correct: a message replayed out of a
session file by `import` is already in the right place, and one that
opened no turn has no turn to sit above. Both stay where they arrive.
The echo driver gets `/peer-turn` for the live shape, beside `/peer` for
the in-place one. Verified on the emulator both ways, live and on
replay, plus an ordinary `/tools` turn to confirm the run grouping the
insertion cuts through is unaffected.

A `Read` that returns an image is a row of one call, and the moment the
session makes its next call the two become a group -- which is a different
composable in a different part of the tree, so the old subtree goes and
everything it remembered goes with it. The full-screen viewer was inside
that subtree, so somebody looking at a screenshot was thrown back to the
transcript because the session carried on working. A page of history
landing does the same thing to the same row.
What is open is a property of the screen rather than of whichever row
happened to draw the thumbnail, so it is held there now and drawn beside
the other two dialogs. Nothing that happens to rows can reach it.
The cost is one fetch when it opens, since the thumbnail's decoded bitmap
belongs to a row this no longer goes through. Paid deliberately rather than
plumbed around: it is one request for a picture somebody asked to see, and
the viewer draws the same two empty states the thumbnail does -- still
coming, and never coming -- which it previously could not have, since it
only ever opened on a bitmap already in hand.
`/tools n gap` now puts a screenshot on its first call, so the case is
reproducible rather than argued about: that command already existed to make
a run *grow* while somebody watches, and the image is what made growing
matter. Checked on the emulator with `/tools 3 30` -- opened the image on
the lone call, and it was still open a minute later with the row by then
inside a group of three, and back returned to the transcript rather than
leaving the app.
Two things a reader could not do to what is on screen.
**Selection.** Nothing in the transcript was selectable at all, so a
command, a path or an error message could be read and not copied. One
`SelectionContainer` around the whole list rather than one per row: a
transcript is one body of text to a reader, and a selection has to be able
to run from a reply into the tool output under it. Per row it also could
not, and whatever was drawn without a container would have been silently
unselectable -- a state nothing on screen reports. Rows keep their tap
handlers; checked on the emulator that expanding a tool call, scrolling and
flinging are all unaffected, since a selection is a long press.
**Taking a message back.** A message sent into a running turn sits as a
bubble waiting to be read, and there was no way to change your mind: it is
tappable now, and the server answers `POST /sessions/{id}/unqueue`.
The answer has three states, and the middle one is the point. Claude's
driver writes a steer into the CLI's stdin the instant it arrives -- that
is what makes it reach the model at the next tool boundary rather than at
the end of the turn, and it was measured -- so the line is already gone and
`AlreadySent` is the only honest answer it can give. Holding the write
until a boundary would make the drop real and cost a steer one model call,
which is the latency the immediate write exists to remove; rejected on that
trade, with the reasoning in PLAN.md. The refusal is drawn on the bubble
that was pressed rather than in the error row under the header, a screen
away from it.
Where a driver really does hold its queue -- echo today -- the message goes
for good, and it goes as an `Event::MessageDropped` rather than as a return
value: every device watching the session loses the bubble, and a phone that
reconnects and replays the `messageQueued` does not put back one that was
cancelled with nothing left to resolve it.
The renderer draws every table cell at one line with an ellipsis, so most
of a table was unreadable on a phone -- and an elided cell looks exactly
like a short one, so nothing said anything had been cut. Cells now take as
many lines as they need and align to the top of the row. Width is the other
half: a column narrows to 136dp and no further, and past that the table
scrolls sideways rather than squeezing. 136 is the widest floor that still
fits three columns across a phone, measured rather than picked; four and up
scroll, which is the right answer for genuinely too many columns.
The import screen used to send one request per selected row, so a handover
was only as atomic as the network: some rows started and the rest were
never asked for, and a row nobody asked for looks exactly like a row nobody
picked. `POST /setups/{id}/importable/delete` and `.../import` now take the
whole list, and every id is registered as in flight before the 202 goes
back. Only the registering is atomic -- the work settles per row, since six
deletes that all roll back together is not something a filesystem offers.
The echo driver grows `/table N`, with cells long enough to have been
truncated: a fixture of tidy one-word values renders fine whether or not
the bug is there.

A Rust backend that owns the sessions and an Android app that reads them.
The server spawns and adopts CLI processes, normalises everything they emit
into one event model, keeps the transcript, and serves it over pinned TLS on
a WireGuard interface; the phone streams that, replies, sends images, and
imports conversations the machine already has.
`AGENTS.md` is the working guide -- what runs where, what has been measured,
and the faults that were expensive to find. `PLAN.md` is the design record.
History before this point was squashed away. It was a personal project's
running commentary and carried a name and a couple of machine paths that
have no business in a public repository; the tree is what mattered and the
tree is here.
