Persists the agent-generated turn-end summary on `chats` and shows it as
the Agents sidebar subtitle when present, falling back to the model
name. Errors still take precedence.
> Mux is acting on Mike's behalf.
## What changes
**Storage.** New nullable `last_turn_summary` column on `chats`
(migration `000486`). New `UpdateChatLastTurnSummary` query normalizes
blank/whitespace input to `NULL`, preserves `updated_at` (so the chat
does not jump to the top of the sidebar on summary writes), and uses an
`expected_updated_at` stale-write guard so an older async summary cannot
overwrite a newer turn.
**Backend.** `coderd/x/chatd/chatd.go` decouples summary generation from
webpush. Generated summaries persist for completed parent turns even
when webpush is unconfigured or has no subscriptions. The same generated
text is reused as the webpush body when webpush is configured, so the
summary model is not called twice. Generic fallback push text is no
longer persisted; it clears any stale summary instead.
Error/interrupt/pending-action terminal paths clear `last_turn_summary`
for the latest turn.
**Frontend.** `AgentsSidebar.tsx` subtitle priority is now `errorReason
|| lastTurnSummary || modelName`, normalized via the existing
`asNonEmptyString` helper from `blockUtils.ts`.
## Tests
- `TestUpdateChatLastTurnSummary` (database): success,
whitespace-to-NULL, stale guard rejects, `updated_at` preserved.
- `TestUpdateLastTurnSummaryRejectsStaleWrites` (chatd internal): direct
stale-`expected_updated_at` test.
- `TestSuccessfulChatPersistsTurnSummaryWithoutWebPush`: persistence
works without webpush subscriptions.
- `TestSuccessfulChatSendsWebPushWithSummary`: same generated text
drives both DB and push body.
-
`TestSuccessfulChatSendsWebPushFallbackWithoutSummaryForEmptyAssistantText`:
fallback text is not persisted.
- `TestErroredChatClearsLastTurnSummaryAndSendsWebPush`: error path
clears the field.
- `TestInterruptChatDoesNotSendWebPushNotification`: interrupt path
clears the field, no push fires.
- `AgentsSidebar.test.tsx`: subtitle priority for summary-present,
error-wins, no-summary fallback, whitespace fallback.
- `AgentsSidebar.stories.tsx`: `ChatWithTurnSummary` and
`ChatWithTurnSummaryAndError`.
## Notes
- No backfill. Existing chats keep showing the model name until their
next turn completes.
- Parent chats only in this iteration; the field is rendered on any
`Chat` if a future change extends generation to children.
- Decoupling generation from webpush adds quickgen model calls for
completed parent turns that previously skipped generation when no
subscriptions existed. Existing parent-only, assistant-text-present,
`PushSummaryModel` configured, and bounded-timeout gates keep this
behavior bounded.
Moves the chat error kind taxonomy from `coderd/x/chatd/chaterror` into
`codersdk.ChatErrorKind` and types `ChatError.Kind` /
`ChatStreamRetry.Kind` so generated TypeScript exposes an SDK-owned
union, including `usage_limit`. Backend chat classification now
references the SDK constants directly while preserving the existing JSON
string values.
Keeps chat usage-limit admission failures on their existing 409 response
shape. The frontend maps structured usage-limit responses to the
SDK-owned `usage_limit` kind, uses generated `TypesGen.ChatErrorKind`
directly, and removes the local string union and alias.
**Breaking change for changelog:**
> `codersdk.Chat.last_error` now returns a structured `ChatError` object
(`{message, kind, provider, retryable, status_code, detail}`) instead of
a plain string. The chats API is experimental
(`/api/experimental/chats`), so this ships without a deprecation cycle;
consumers reading `chat.last_error` as a string must update to read
`chat.last_error.message`. SDK/generated TypeScript terminal error
payloads now use the single `ChatError` type; the live stream error
payload type is renamed from `ChatStreamError` to `ChatError`.
Persisted chat errors now carry the same provider-specific detail (kind,
provider, retryable, HTTP status, optional detail) as the live stream,
so refreshing a failed chat rehydrates with the full structured error
instead of a one-line headline.
Existing rows are migrated in place: legacy text errors are wrapped into
`{message, kind: "generic"}` so already-errored chats still render, and
rows with `last_error IS NULL` stay NULL. Internally, persisted fallback
decoding now reuses the existing `chaterror.KindGeneric` constant, with
no JSON value change.
Closes CODAGT-239
GetChats now returns only root chats (parent_chat_id IS NULL).
A new GetChildChatsByParentIDs query fetches children for visible
roots and embeds them in each parent's Children field. The
singular getChat endpoint does the same.
Archive invariant is one-way: parent archived implies child
archived. Parent archive/unarchive cascades via root_chat_id.
Individual child archive is permitted; child unarchive while the
parent is archived is rejected atomically (row lock on child,
re-read parent inside the transaction). Embedded children are
filtered by the caller's archive state so individually-archived
children stay hidden from active-parent views.
Gitsync MarkStale uses GetChatsByWorkspaceIDs directly;
MarkStaleParams.OwnerID removed (dead after the switch).
Frontend: buildChatTree reads from the embedded children field,
WebSocket handlers route child events into the parent's children
array, and archiving a child strips it from the parent cache.
Add a `chat_client_type` enum (`ui` | `api`) and `client_type` column to
the `chats` table. The column defaults to `api` for new rows so API
callers don't need to set it explicitly. Existing rows are backfilled to
`ui`.
The field flows through `CreateChatRequest`, `chatd.CreateOptions`,
`InsertChat`, and is returned in the `Chat` response via `db2sdk`.

<summary>Implementation notes (Coder Agents generated)</summary>
### Changes
**Database migration (000469)**
- New enum `chat_client_type` with values `ui`, `api`.
- New `client_type` column, `NOT NULL DEFAULT 'api'`.
- Backfill: `UPDATE chats SET client_type = 'ui'`.
**SQL query** — `InsertChat` now includes `client_type`.
**SDK** — `ChatClientType` type added; `ClientType` field added to both
`CreateChatRequest` (optional, defaults server-side to `api`) and `Chat`
response.
**Handler** — `postChats` maps the request field (defaulting to `api`)
and passes it through `chatd.CreateOptions`.
**Sub-agent** — Child chats inherit their parent's `client_type`.
**db2sdk** — Maps the database value to the SDK type.
### Decision log
- Default is `api` (not `ui`) so existing API integrations get the
correct value without code changes.
- Backfill sets existing rows to `ui` per requirement.
- Child chats inherit `client_type` from parent rather than defaulting.

Adds client-executed dynamic tools to the chat API. Dynamic tools are
declared by the client at chat creation time, presented to the LLM
alongside built-in tools, but executed by the client rather than chatd.
This enables external systems (Slack bots, IDE extensions, Discord bots,
CI/CD integrations) to plug custom tools into the LLM chat loop without
modifying chatd's built-in tool set.
Modeled after OpenAI's Assistants API: the chat pauses with
`requires_action` status when the LLM calls a dynamic tool, the client
POSTs results back via `POST /chats/{id}/tool-results`, and the chat
resumes.
See [this example](https://github.com/coder/coder-slackbot-poc) as a
reference for how this is used. It's highly-configurable, which would
enable creating chats from webhooks, periodically polling, or running as
a Slackbot.
<details>
<summary>Design context</summary>
### Architecture
The chatloop **exits** when it encounters dynamic tools and
**re-enters** when results arrive. No blocking channels, no pubsub for
tool results, no in-memory registry. The DB is the only coordination
mechanism.
```
Phase 1 (chatloop):
LLM response → execute built-in tools only →
Persist(assistant + built-in results) →
status = requires_action → chatloop exits
Phase 2 (POST /tool-results):
Persist(dynamic tool results) →
status = pending → wakeCh → chatloop re-enters
```
### Validation (POST /tool-results)
1. Chat status must be `requires_action` (409 if not)
2. Read chat's `dynamic_tools` → set of dynamic tool names
3. Read last assistant message → extract tool-call parts matching
dynamic tool names
4. Submitted tool_call_ids must match exactly (400 for missing/extra)
5. Persist tool-result message parts, set status to `pending`, signal
wake
### Idempotency
Tool call IDs scoped per LLM step. State machine (`requires_action` →
`pending`) is the guard. First POST wins, subsequent get 409.
### Mixed tool calls
When the LLM calls both built-in and dynamic tools in one step, built-in
tools execute immediately. Their results are persisted in phase 1.
Dynamic tool results arrive via POST in phase 2. The LLM sees all
results when the chatloop resumes.

Two new columns added to aibridge_token_usages:
- cache_read_input_tokens (BIGINT, default 0)
- cache_write_input_tokens (BIGINT, default 0)
Migration backfills existing rows by extracting values from the metadata
JSONB column (cache_read_input, input_cached, prompt_cached for reads
(max value selected since only 1 should be set), cache_creation_input
for writes).
All references to data from metadata were updated to reference new
columns. No other changes then changing where data is extracted from.
Requires aibridge library version bump to include:
https://github.com/coder/aibridge/pull/229
Fixes: https://github.com/coder/aibridge/issues/150
Adds a nullable JSONB column `last_injected_context` to the `chats`
table that stores the most recently persisted injected context parts
(AGENTS.md context-file and skill message parts). The column is updated
only when `persistInstructionFiles()` runs — on first workspace attach
or when the agent changes — so there are no redundant writes on
subsequent turns.
Internal fields (`ContextFileContent`, `ContextFileOS`,
`ContextFileDirectory`, `SkillDir`) are stripped at write time so the
column only holds small metadata. No stripping needed on the read path.

<summary>Implementation notes</summary>
- New migration `000456` adds nullable `last_injected_context JSONB`
column.
- New SQL query `UpdateChatLastInjectedContext` writes the column
without touching `updated_at`.
- `persistInstructionFiles()` strips internal fields from parts via
`StripInternal()` before persisting.
- Sentinel path (no AGENTS.md) persists skill-only parts when skills
exist.
- `codersdk.Chat` exposes `LastInjectedContext []ChatMessagePart`
(omitempty).
- `db2sdk.Chat()` passes through the already-clean data.
</details>
## Summary
Adds read/unread tracking for chats so users can see which agent
conversations have new assistant messages they haven't viewed.
## Backend Changes
- Adds `last_read_message_id` column to the `chats` table (migration
000439).
- Computes `has_unread` as a virtual column in `GetChatsByOwnerID` using
an `EXISTS` subquery checking for assistant messages beyond the read
cursor.
- Exposes `has_unread` on the `codersdk.Chat` struct and auto-generated
TypeScript types.
- Updates `last_read_message_id` on stream connect/disconnect in
`streamChat`, avoiding per-message API calls during active streaming.
- Uses `context.WithoutCancel` for the deferred disconnect write so the
DB update succeeds even after the client disconnects.
## Frontend Changes
- Bold title (`font-semibold`) for unread chats in the sidebar.
- Small blue dot indicator next to the relative timestamp.
- Suppresses unread indicator for the currently active chat via
`isActive` from NavLink.
## Design Decisions
- Only `assistant` messages count as unread — the user's own messages
don't trigger the indicator.
- No foreign key on `last_read_message_id` since messages can be deleted
(via rollback/truncation) and the column is just a high-water mark.
- Zero API calls during streaming: exactly 2 DB writes per stream
session (connect + disconnect).
- Unread state refreshes on chat list load and window focus. The
`watchChats` WebSocket optimistically marks non-active chats as unread
on `status_change` events, but does not carry a server-computed
`has_unread` field. Navigating to a chat optimistically clears its
unread indicator in the cache.

## Summary
Adds pinned chats to the agents page sidebar with server-side
persistence and drag-to-reorder. Users can pin/unpin chats via the
context menu, and pinned chats appear in a dedicated "Pinned" section
above the time-grouped list.
## Database
Migration `000453_chat_pin_order`: adds `pin_order integer DEFAULT 0 NOT
NULL` column on `chats` (0 = unpinned, 1+ = pinned in display order).
Three SQL queries handle pin operations server-side using CTEs with
`ROW_NUMBER()`:
- `PinChatByID`: normalizes existing orders and appends to end
- `UnpinChatByID`: sets target to 0 and compacts remaining pins
- `UpdateChatPinOrder`: shifts neighbors, clamps to `[1, pinned_count]`
All queries exclude archived chats. `ArchiveChatByID` clears `pin_order`
on archive. The handler rejects pinning archived chats with 400.
## Backend
Pin/unpin/reorder go through the existing `PATCH
/api/experimental/chats/{chat}` via the `pin_order` field on
`UpdateChatRequest`. The handler routes based on current pin state:
`pin_order == 0` unpins, `> 0` on an already-pinned chat reorders, `> 0`
on an unpinned chat appends to end.
## Frontend
- `pinChat` / `unpinChat` / `reorderPinnedChat` optimistic mutations
using shared `isChatListQuery` predicate
- Sidebar renders Pinned section above time groups, excludes pinned
chats from time groups
- Pin/Unpin context menu items (hidden for child/delegated chats)
- `@dnd-kit/core` + `@dnd-kit/sortable` for drag-to-reorder with
`MouseSensor`, `TouchSensor`, and `KeyboardSensor`
- Local pin-order override prevents flash on drop; click blocker
prevents NavLink navigation after drag

*PR generated with Coder Agents*
*Problem:* `publishChatPubsubEvent` was constructing a partial
`codersdk.Chat` that omitted `LastModelConfigID` and other fields. Go's
zero-value UUID caused the sidebar to show "Default model" for chats
received via SSE.
*Solution:*
- Extracted `convertChat`/`convertChats` from `exp_chats.go` into
`db2sdk.Chat`/`db2sdk.Chats`, alongside existing `ChatMessage`,
`ChatQueuedMessage`, and `ChatDiffStatus` converters.
`publishChatPubsubEvent` now calls `db2sdk.Chat(chat, nil)` instead of
maintaining its own copy of the conversion logic
- Added backend integration test
`TestWatchChats/CreatedEventIncludesAllChatFields`
- Added frontend regression tests for nil-UUID and valid model config ID
cases

Migration 000434 converts chat_messages.role from text to a Postgres
enum, rebuilds the partial index, and adds content_version smallint.
The column is backfilled with DEFAULT 0, then the default is dropped
so future inserts must set it explicitly.
Version 0 uses the role-aware heuristic from #22958. Version 1 (all
new inserts) stores []ChatMessagePart JSON for all roles, including
system messages. ParseContent takes database.ChatMessage directly
and dispatches on version internally. Unknown versions error.
All string(codersdk.ChatMessageRole*) casts at DB write sites are
replaced with database.ChatMessageRole* constants from sqlc.
Refs #22958
File-reference parts in user messages were flattened to `TextContent` at
write time because fantasy has no file-reference content type. The
frontend never saw them as structured parts.
This moves all write paths (user, assistant, tool) from fantasy envelope
format to `codersdk.ChatMessagePart`. The streaming layer (`chatloop`)
is untouched, the conversion happens at the serialization boundary in
`persistStep`.
Old rows are still readable. `ParseContent` uses a structural heuristic
(`isFantasyEnvelopeFormat`) to distinguish legacy envelopes from SDK
parts. We chose this over try/fallback because fantasy envelopes
partially unmarshal into `ChatMessagePart` (the `type` field matches)
while silently losing content. A guard test enforces that no SDK part
can produce the envelope shape.
This is forward-only: new rows are unreadable by old code. Chat is
behind a feature flag so rollback risk is contained.
Also adds a typed `ChatMessageRole` to replace raw strings and
`fantasy.MessageRole*` casts at the persistence boundary. The type
covers `ChatMessage.Role`, `ChatStreamMessagePart.Role`, the
`PublishMessagePart` callback chain, and all DB write sites.
`fantasy.MessageRole*` remains only where we build `fantasy.Message`
structs for LLM dispatch.
Separately, `ProviderMetadata` was leaking to SSE clients via
`publishMessagePart`. `StripInternal` now runs on both the SSE and REST
paths, covering this.
Other cleanup:
- Old `db2sdk.contentBlockToPart` silently dropped metadata on
text/reasoning/tool-call content. New code preserves it.
- `providerMetadataToOptions` now logs warnings instead of silently
returning nil.
- `db2sdk` shrinks from ~250 lines of parallel conversion to ~15 lines
delegating to `chatprompt.ParseContent()`, removing the `fantasy` import
entirely.
Refs #22821
Removes the backend and frontend logic that extracted compact titles
from reasoning/thinking blocks. The `Title` field on `ChatMessagePart`
remains for other part types (e.g. source), but reasoning blocks no
longer have titles derived from first-line markdown bold text or
provider metadata summaries.
**Backend:**
- Remove `ReasoningTitleFromFirstLine`, `reasoningTitleFromContent`,
`reasoningSummaryTitle`, `compactReasoningSummaryTitle`, and
`reasoningSummaryHeadline` from chatprompt
- Simplify `marshalContentBlock` to plain `json.Marshal` (no title
injection)
- Remove title tracking maps and `setReasoningTitleFromText` from
chatloop stream processing
- Remove `reasoningStoredTitle` from db2sdk
- Remove related tests from db2sdk_test
**Frontend:**
- Remove `mergeThinkingTitles` from blockUtils
- Simplify `appendTextBlock` to always merge consecutive thinking blocks
- Remove `applyStreamThinkingTitle` from streamState
- Simplify reasoning/thinking stream handler to ignore title-only parts
- Update tests accordingly
