p2 rewritten by the Chord v2 authoring rules (decision "App authoring rules confirmed
by the p2 audit"), in four parts merged together:
- core: session lifecycle (relocate, clone, fork, archive) and search rebuild are
persisted jobs on a new server store; Sessions v6 with client-chosen ids and visible
operations; Retry answers with the worker's real outcome; workers push branch,
subagent and status state to the server; roots take the method's ctx.
- services: models, envs, ports, login, mcp, logs, sharing and voice follow external
state (self.follow, followNative) instead of copy loops; methods answer after their
state commits; presence from host.references.
- chat: chat mode, artifacts and prompt resources follow Durable and native state;
shell commands are Chord jobs (shellId is the requestId); status pushed before
send and stop answer; race-free draft claim.
- ui: optimistic updates on web (useOptimistic) and terminal (TuiScope.optimistic,
extended in Chord with a reducer and a pending flag), pending states for long work,
visible rollback, load waterfalls removed; merged with the one composer and
immediate first send (ccff9876e) and the folder + button (5a31a6d5f).
docs/optimistic-ui.md describes the pattern.
- Switching branches (navigate, select) no longer waits for the main conversation: a branch left while
running keeps working in the background, read-only with Stop allowed.
- Branch rows in the sidebar show the working dot; background branches' answers count as unread.
- Fence refusals name a running background branch instead of a subagent #N.
- Subagent reports go to the conversation that sent the message; team send to "parent" goes to the
conversation that last spawned or messaged the subagent.
Pages and TUIs loaded before a deploy hold the contracts they were built
with; without accepts they wait unbound (contract_mismatch) until they
reload. The histories are now written with evolve from the released
versions, and the providers accept them:
- Sessions 3 (rows without main and branches) and 4 (a null branch label
reads as the session title); v4's treeSelf arguments pass as they are
- Catalog 2 and 3, the same row mappings
- SessionTree 1: the tree without labels (no branches, no node
conversation); rename is new and needs nothing
test/p2/contract-versions.test.ts binds the released declarations
against the current server.
Each branch is a top-level conversation forked from another at an entry;
the session-scoped p2.main document lists them and names the current one.
Earlier branches are read-only. The main agent's per-agent state
(subagents, artifacts, voice and chat mode, pending move) stays on
conversation 1 for every branch.
- tree plugin: SessionTree (tree, navigate, select); the worker reports
main and branches to the catalog (Sessions v4, catalog schema 4)
- TUI: /tree and double Escape (pi's default "tree"), a tree selector
adapted from coding-agent
- web: Edit on user messages, Branch from here on answers, branch rows
under the session in the sidebar
- main-agent checks use the branch list instead of conversation 1
- search indexes each branch's own entries
Design: apps/p2/docs/tree.md
Archiving from the session sheet navigates away first, which unmounted SessionOptions and released its Sessions
reference; Chord cancels a released reference's calls, so the archive call rejected with "p2.sessions: released",
shown as the composer toast over the owner-notice lane. The archive now holds a reference of its own until it is done,
and the server runs its steps in a root of its own.
The archive stopped the worker with Hosts.stop, which restarts it for its holders: the page's lingering
conversation started a worker the archived session refused (resolve_failed, "Worker: Session is archived" notice).
SessionWorkerControl.suspend stops it and leaves its holders suspended until a restore (retry) or their release;
archive, a failed fork's archived copy and an archived session's index rebuild use it.
p2 (Pi Mobile on Chord v2) moves from pi-private into pi as one commit. Root scripts that loop all workspaces
use --if-present; npm test, ./test.sh and the release script cover packages/* only (p2: cd apps/p2 && npm test);
sync-versions also updates apps' workspace pins.
