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.
Design in SUBAGENTS.md; choices awaiting review in DECISIONS.md.

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 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.

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.

Peer messages were only ever produced by the *import* path, reading them out
of the CLI's own session file. A message another agent sent to a session
this server was driving appeared nowhere, so the session started working on
something nobody on the phone had asked for and there was nothing on screen
to explain it.
Measured rather than guessed, because the obvious place to look for it is
empty: a real cross-session message sent to a real `--input-format
stream-json` session on CLI 2.1.237 produces **no `user` record**, and
nothing in the partial-message stream mentions it either. The whole of it
arrives as an `origin` object on the turn's `result`, in exactly the shape
the session file records -- so `import::peer_message` now reads both, one
function for one wire format. Two copies would drift the first time a field
is renamed, and the half that drifted would go on producing nothing, which
is indistinguishable from nobody having sent anything.
The cost is the position: the note lands after the reply it caused rather
than above it, because at no earlier point in the turn does the CLI say why
the turn started. Taken deliberately over the alternative -- a second reader
tailing the CLI's own session file for the one record stdout does not carry,
which is two sources of truth for one conversation and a poll per live
session. Recorded in PLAN.md so that if the CLI ever announces the injection
where it happens, the next reader knows to move it there.
Both halves tested: the real record shape, and an ordinary result carrying
no `origin` -- which is the half that decides whether the check is a check.
Four ordinary results on a real session's stdout had none between them.
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.
