- Rename user-facing "chats" to "Coder Agents" (feature name) or
"conversations" (individual instances)
- Covers UI strings, docs prose, Storybook stories, and aria labels
- API paths, internal code identifiers, and the "Chats API" docs page
name are intentionally left unchanged
- TaskPage / AI Tasks are out of scope
> 🤖 Written by a Coder Agent. Will be reviewed by a human.
Replaces the generic red `ErrorAlert` ("Forbidden.") with a proactive
permission check and friendly info alert when a user lacks the
`agents-access` role.
- Add `createChat` permission check to `permissions.json` using
`owner_id: "me"`
- Handle `"me"` owner substitution in `renderPermissions` (SSR path)
- Pass `canCreateChat` from `useAuthenticated().permissions` into
`AgentCreateForm`
- Show `ChatAccessDeniedAlert` and disable input immediately (no need to
trigger a 403 first)
- Also catch 403 errors as a fallback in case permissions aren't yet
loaded
- Add `ForbiddenNoAgentsRole` Storybook story with `play` assertions
- Add `TestRenderPermissionsResolvesMe` Go test to pin the `"me"`
sentinel substitution
<details><summary>Implementation plan & decision log</summary>
- Uses the existing `permissions.json` + `checkAuthorization` system
rather than a separate API call
- `owner_id: "me"` is resolved to the actor's ID by both the auth-check
API endpoint and the SSR `renderPermissions` function
- Go test uses a real `rbac.StrictCachingAuthorizer` (not a mock) so it
verifies both the sentinel substitution and the RBAC role evaluation
end-to-end
- Alert follows the exact same `Alert` pattern as the 409 usage-limit
block
- Uses `severity="info"` and links to the getting-started docs Step 3
- Textarea is disabled proactively so the user never sees the scary
generic error
</details>
> 🤖 Created by a Coder Agent and will be reviewed by a human.
- Add `chat-access` built-in role granting chat CRUD at User scope
- Exclude `ResourceChat` from member, org member, and org service
account `allPermsExcept` calls
- Allow system, owner, and user-admin to assign the new role
- Migration auto-assigns role to users who have ever created a chat
- Update RBAC test matrix: `memberMe` denied, `chatAccessUser` allowed
**Breaking change**: Members without `chat-access` lose chat creation
ability. Migration covers existing chat creators. Members who have never
created a chat do not get this role automatically applied.
> 🤖 This PR was created by a Coder Agent and reviewed by me.
Fixes factual errors found during a review of all pages under
`/docs/ai-coder/agents/`.
## Tool tables (`index.md`, `architecture.md`)
Both pages had incomplete tool tables. Added:
- `process_output`, `process_list`, `process_signal` — core workspace
tools always registered alongside `execute`, missing from both pages
- `propose_plan` — platform tool (root chats only), missing from both
pages
- `spawn_computer_use_agent` — orchestration tool (conditional), missing
from architecture.md
Also fixed the architecture.md claim that the agent is "restricted to
the tool set defined in this section" — it now mentions skills and MCP
tools with links to the relevant pages.
## Model options (`models.md`)
- **OpenAI / OpenRouter Reasoning Effort**: docs listed `low`, `medium`,
`high` — code has `none`, `minimal`, `low`, `medium`, `high`, `xhigh`.
Fixed both.
- **Removed hidden fields** that never appear in the admin UI:
- Google: Safety Settings (`hidden:"true"`)
- OpenRouter: Provider Order, Allow Fallbacks (parent struct
`hidden:"true"`)
- Vercel: Provider Options (`hidden:"true"`)

*PR generated with Coder Agents*
Adds three new documentation pages for major shipped features that had
no docs, and updates the platform controls index to reflect current
state.
## New pages
### Extending Agents (`extending-agents.md`)
Covers two workspace-level extension mechanisms:
- **Skills** — `.agents/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` directory structure,
frontmatter format, auto-discovery, `read_skill`/`read_skill_file`
tools, size limits, lazy loading
- **Workspace MCP tools** — `.mcp.json` format, stdio and HTTP
transports, tool name prefixing, discovery lifecycle and caching
### MCP Servers (`platform-controls/mcp-servers.md`)
Admin MCP server configuration:
- CRUD via **Agents** > **Settings** > **MCP Servers**
- Four auth modes: none, OAuth2 (with auto-discovery), API key, custom
headers
- Availability policies: `force_on`, `default_on`, `default_off`
- Tool governance via allow/deny lists
- Permission model and secret redaction
### Usage & Insights (`platform-controls/usage-insights.md`)
Three admin dashboards:
- **Usage limits** — spend caps with per-user and per-group overrides,
priority hierarchy, enforcement behavior
- **Cost tracking** — per-user rollup with token breakdowns, date
filtering, per-model and per-chat drill-down
## Updated files
- **`platform-controls/index.md`** — Moved MCP servers, usage limits,
and analytics from "Where we are headed" into "What platform teams
control today" with links to the new pages. Removed the tool
customization roadmap section (now covered by MCP servers page).
- **`manifest.json`** — Added nav entries for all three new pages.
## Resulting nav hierarchy

## Summary
Add site-wide banners for AI Governance seat usage thresholds:
1. **90% capacity warning (admin-only):** When actual AI Governance
seats are ≥90% and <100% of the license limit, admins see:
> "You have used 90% of your AI governance add-on seats."
2. **Over-limit banner (admin-only):** When actual seats exceed the
license limit, admins see a prominent warning:
> "Your organization is using {actual} / {limit} AI Governance user
seats ({X}% over the limit). Contact sales@coder.com"
- Uses floor whole percentage (Go int division / `Math.floor`)
- Includes a clickable `mailto:sales@coder.com` link
## Summary
Adds an entitlement-gated **AI add-on** column to both the **Users**
table and the **Organization Members** table. When
`ai_governance_user_limit` is entitled, each row shows whether the user
is consuming an AI seat.
## Background
The AI governance add-on tracks which users are consuming AI seats.
Admins need visibility into per-user seat consumption directly from the
user management tables. This change surfaces that information through
both the site-wide Users table and the per-organization Members table,
gated behind the `ai_governance_user_limit` entitlement so the column
only appears when the feature is licensed.
## Implementation
### Backend
- **New SQL query** `GetUserAISeatStates`
(`coderd/database/queries/aiseatstate.sql`) — returns user IDs consuming
an AI seat, derived from:
- Users with entries in `aibridge_interceptions` (AI Bridge usage)
- Users who own workspaces with `has_ai_task = true` builds (AI Tasks
usage)
- **SDK types** — added `has_ai_seat: boolean` to `codersdk.User` and
`codersdk.OrganizationMemberWithUserData`
- **Handler wiring** — both the Users list endpoint (`coderd/users.go`)
and all Members endpoints (`coderd/members.go`) query AI seat state per
page of user IDs and populate the response field
- **dbauthz** — per-user `ActionRead` checks on `ResourceUserObject`
### Frontend
- **Shared `AISeatCell` component**
(`site/src/modules/users/AISeatCell.tsx`) — green `CircleCheck` for
consuming, gray `X` for non-consuming
- **`TableColumnHelpTooltip`** — extended with `ai_addon` variant with
tooltip: *"Users with access to AI features like AI Bridge, Boundary, or
Tasks who are actively consuming a seat."*
- **Column visibility** gated behind
`useFeatureVisibility().ai_governance_user_limit`
## Validation
- Backend: dbauthz full method suite (`TestMethodTestSuite`) passes
including new `GetUserAISeatStates` test
- Backend: `TestGetUsers`, `TestUsersFilter`, CLI golden file tests pass
- Frontend: 7/7 tests pass across `UsersPage.test.tsx` and
`OrganizationMembersPage.test.tsx` (column visibility gating both
directions)
- `go build ./coderd/...` compiles clean
- `pnpm --dir site run lint:types` passes
- `make gen` clean
## Risks
- **Pagination performance**: The AI seat query is scoped to the current
page's user IDs (not a full table scan), keeping it efficient for
paginated views.
- **Semantic scope**: The workspace-side AI seat derivation uses "any
build with `has_ai_task = true`" rather than "latest build only". If the
product intent is latest-build-only, this can be tightened in a
follow-up.

Closes https://github.com/coder/internal/issues/1360
Adds a new `/api/v2/aibridge/sessions` API which returns "sessions".
Sessions, as defined in the [RFC](https://www.notion.so/coderhq/AI-Bridge-Sessions-Threads-2ccd579be59280f28021d3baf7472fbe?source=copy_link), are a set of interceptions logically grouped by a session key issued by the client.
The API design for this endpoint was done in [this doc](https://github.com/coder/internal/issues/1360).
If the client has not provided a session ID, we will revert to the thread root ID, and if that's not present we use the interception's own ID (i.e. a session of a single interception - which is effectively what we show currently in our `/api/v2/aibridge/interceptions` API).
The SQL query looks gnarly but it's relatively simple, and seems to perform well (~200ms) even when I import dogfood's `aibridge_*` tables into my workspace. If we need to improve performance on this later we can investigate materialized views, perhaps, but for now I don't think it's warranted.
---
_The PR looks large but it's got a lot of generated code; the actual changes aren't huge._
The tool descriptions pushed agents toward backgrounding anything over
5 seconds, including builds, tests, and installs where you actually
want to wait for the result. This led to unnecessary process_output
round-trips and missed the foreground timeout-to-reattach workflow
entirely.
Reframe background mode as the exception (persistent processes with
no natural exit) and foreground with an appropriate timeout as the
default. Replace "background process" with "tracked process" in
process_output, process_list, and process_signal since they work on
all tracked processes regardless of how they were started.
Addresses five documentation gaps identified from an internal agents
briefing Q&A, specifically around what permissions an agent inherits
from the user:
1. **No privilege escalation** — Added explicit statement that the agent
has the exact same permissions as the user. No escalation, no shared
service account.
2. **Cross-user workspace isolation** — Added statement that agents
cannot access workspaces belonging to other users.
3. **Default-state warning** — Added WARNING callouts that agent
workspaces inherit the user's full network access unless templates
explicitly restrict it.
4. **Tool boundary statement** — Added explicit statement that the agent
cannot act outside its defined tool set and has no direct access to the
Coder API.
5. **Template visibility scoped to user RBAC** — Clarified that template
selection respects the user's role and permissions.

Also marks all Coder Agents child pages as `early access` in
`docs/manifest.json`.
Adds a new **Enable Coder Agents** section to the Early Access doc
explaining how to activate the `agents` experiment flag via
`CODER_EXPERIMENTS` or `--experiments`.
## Changes
### `docs/ai-coder/agents/early-access.md`
- New **Enable Coder Agents** section with env var and CLI flag
examples.
- Note that the `agents` flag is excluded from wildcard (`*`) opt-in.
- Quick-start checklist: dashboard → Admin → configure provider/model →
start chatting.
- Link to GitHub issues for feedback.
### `docs/ai-coder/agents/index.md`
- Updated **Product status** from "internal preview" to "Early Access"
with a link to the early-access page for enablement instructions.
_Disclaimer: implemented by a Coder Agent using Claude Opus 4.6._
Marks the injected MCP approach in AI Bridge as deprecated across the
codebase.
## Changes
- **`codersdk/deployment.go`**: Deprecated `ExternalAuthConfig.MCPURL`,
`.MCPToolAllowRegex`, `.MCPToolDenyRegex` fields; deprecated and hid the
`--aibridge-inject-coder-mcp-tools` server flag; deprecated
`AIBridgeConfig.InjectCoderMCPTools`.
- **`coderd/externalauth/externalauth.go`**: Deprecated `Config.MCPURL`,
`.MCPToolAllowRegex`, `.MCPToolDenyRegex`.
- **`enterprise/aibridgedserver/aibridgedserver.go`**: Added runtime
deprecation warning when `CODER_AIBRIDGE_INJECT_CODER_MCP_TOOLS` is
enabled; deprecated `getCoderMCPServerConfig`.

interface and `MCPProxyFactory` struct.
- **`docs/ai-coder/ai-bridge/mcp.md`**: Added deprecation warning
banner.
## Summary
- add chat model pricing metadata to the agents admin form and SDK
metadata
- split pricing into its own section and show default pricing as
placeholders
- apply default pricing when admins leave pricing fields blank
## Changes
- Add `"state": ["early access"]` to all child pages under Coder Agents
in `docs/manifest.json` (Architecture, Models, Platform Controls, Early
Access).
- Point the Coder Agents video `<source>` directly at
`raw.githubusercontent.com` instead of the `github.com/blob/` URL with
`?raw=true`.
Adds a new child page at `/docs/ai-coder/agents/early-access` describing
the Coder Agents Early Access, including what it includes, what it does
not include, feature scope, licensing, and how to provide feedback.
The codex registry module v4.2.0 wires `enable_state_persistence`
through to agentapi, completing session resume support. Combined with
the `--type codex` flag added in v4.1.2, Codex now fully preserves
conversation context across pause and resume cycles.

This change adds support for image attachments to chat via add button
and clipboard paste. Files are stored in a new `chat_files` table and
referenced by ID in message content. File data is resolved from storage
at LLM dispatch time, keeping the message content column small.
Upload validates MIME types via content type or content sniffing against
an allowlist (png, jpeg, gif, webp). The retrieval endpoint serves files
with immutable caching headers. On the frontend, uploads start eagerly
on attach with a background fetch to pre-warm the browser HTTP cache so
the timeline renders instantly after send.
Adds a docs page under /docs/ai-coder/agents describing our philosophy
on platform team control over agent behavior: admin-level configuration,
zero developer options, enforcement over defaults. Covers what's
available today (providers, models, system prompt, template routing) and
where we're headed (usage analytics, infra-level enforcement, tool
customization).
## Description
Documents the new TLS listener support for AI Bridge Proxy.
Updates `setup.md` with a new "Proxy TLS Configuration" section covering self-signed and corporate CA certificate setup, rewrites "Security Considerations" to reflect TLS as the recommended approach for encrypting client connections, and updates "Client Configuration" with `HTTPS_PROXY` defaults and combined certificate trust instructions.
Updates `copilot.md` to default all proxy URL examples to `https://`, add TLS certificate trust guidance for each client (CLI, VS Code, JetBrains), and document the MCP server trust store requirement for Copilot CLI.
Closes: https://github.com/coder/internal/issues/1335
Adds a new child page under **Coder Agents**
(`/docs/ai-coder/agents-architecture`) that explains how the agent in
the control plane communicates with workspaces.
## Core message
The Coder Agent interacts with workspaces using the exact same
connection path as a developer's IDE, web terminal, or SSH session — no
special protocol, no sidecar, no new ports.
Adds a new documentation page at `docs/ai-coder/agents.md` describing
Coder Agents — the built-in chat interface, API, and lightweight AI
coding agent that runs in the Coder control plane.
## What's included
- Overview of what Coder Agents is and who it's for (regulated
industries, platform teams, existing Coder deployments)
- How the architecture works (agent loop in coderd, outbound to LLM
providers, connects to workspaces via existing daemon connection)
- Key features: automatic template/workspace selection, sub-agents, chat
persistence, message queuing
- Security benefits of the control plane architecture (no API keys in
workspaces, simpler network boundaries, centralized enforced control,
user identity attached)
- LLM provider support table (verified against
`coderd/chatd/chatprovider/chatprovider.go`)
- Built-in tools reference
- Comparison to Coder Tasks
- Product status (internal preview, early access next)
Adds a brief "Structured Logging" section to the [AI Bridge
Setup](https://coder.com/docs/ai-coder/ai-bridge/setup) page documenting
the `--aibridge-structured-logging` /
`CODER_AIBRIDGE_STRUCTURED_LOGGING` flag.
Covers:
- How to enable structured logging (CLI flag, env var, YAML)
- The five `record_type` values emitted (`interception_start`,
`interception_end`, `token_usage`, `prompt_usage`, `tool_usage`) and
their key fields
- How to filter for these records in a logging pipeline

The AI Bridge setup docs showed `CODER_AIBRIDGE_ENABLED=true coder
server` as a single line, which can confuse users into thinking the env
var is a one-time prefix rather than a persistent setting.
Split this into `export CODER_AIBRIDGE_ENABLED=true` on its own line
followed by `coder server`, which is clearer and consistent with how the
Bedrock credentials section already handles env vars in the same file.

## Summary
Updates the AI Governance documentation to explicitly mention that both
Community and Premium deployments include 1,000 Agent Workspace Builds.
Also clarifies that Community deployments do not have access to AI
Bridge or Agent Boundaries.
This is a follow-up to #21943 which made the same clarification in the
Tasks documentation.
## Changes
- Updated the "Agent Workspace Build Limits" section in
`docs/ai-coder/ai-governance.md`
- Added explicit mention that Community deployments lack AI Bridge and
Agent Boundaries access
