Surface the aggregated `runtime_ms` from `chat_messages` through all
four cost analytics queries (summary, per-model, per-chat, per-user).
This is the key billing metric for agent compute time.
The per-chat breakdown already groups by `root_chat_id`, so subagent
runtime is automatically rolled up under the parent chat — no additional
query changes needed.
<details>
<summary>Implementation details</summary>
**SQL** (`coderd/database/queries/chats.sql`): Added
`COALESCE(SUM(cm.runtime_ms), 0)::bigint AS total_runtime_ms` to
`GetChatCostSummary`, `GetChatCostPerModel`, `GetChatCostPerChat`, and
`GetChatCostPerUser`.
**Go SDK** (`codersdk/chats.go`): Added `TotalRuntimeMs int64` to
`ChatCostSummary`, `ChatCostModelBreakdown`, `ChatCostChatBreakdown`,
and `ChatCostUserRollup`.
**Handler** (`coderd/exp_chats.go`): Wired the new field through all
converter functions and the response assembly.
**Tests** (`coderd/exp_chats_test.go`): Updated fixture to seed non-zero
`runtime_ms` values and added assertions for the new field at summary,
per-model, and per-chat levels.

- 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

Fixes: https://github.com/coder/aibridge/issues/150
Add a nullable `value_key_id` column to the `user_secrets` table with a
foreign key to `dbcrypt_keys`. This is the column dbcrypt uses to track
which encryption key encrypted a given secret's value. This is required
for encryption of user secret values.
The column was missing from the original migration (000357).
## Description
Adds `provider_name` to aibridge interceptions to store the provider
instance name alongside the provider type. This allows distinguishing
between multiple instances of the same provider type (e.g. `copilot` vs
`copilot-business`).
## Changes
* Add `provider_name` column to `aibridge_interceptions` table with
backfill from `provider`.
* Add `provider_name` field to the proto `RecordInterceptionRequest`
message.
* Add `ProviderName` to the `codersdk.AIBridgeInterception` API
response.

Previously, `CreateChat` inserted the `chats` row with the DB default
status (`waiting`), then updated it to `pending` in the same transaction
via `setChatPendingWithStore`. This wasted two extra queries per chat
creation (`GetChatByID` + `UpdateChatStatus`) and rewrote the same row
immediately after inserting it.
Now `CreateChat` passes the status directly to `InsertChat`, so the row
is written once in its final create-time state. The
`setChatPendingWithStore` helper is removed entirely. `InsertChat` now
requires an explicit `status` parameter at all callsites instead of
relying on a DB column default.
## Motivation
On an experimental branch we're trialing firing all chatd notifications
from plpgsql triggers. The old two-step insert made that awkward: in an
`AFTER INSERT` trigger, `NEW` only contained the insert-time row
(`waiting`), not the final committed state (`pending`). To emit the
correct event payload the trigger had to be deferred and re-read the row
from `chats` at commit time.
With this change, `NEW` already contains the correct row to publish — no
deferred trigger, no extra `SELECT`, simpler and cheaper trigger logic.
That said, this seems like a worthwhile change regardless of the trigger
experiment: writing the final row state once removes unnecessary DB work
on every chat creation and makes the create path easier to reason about.
Unarchiving a root chat now restores descendant chats in the database
and emits lifecycle events for every affected chat so passive sessions
converge without a full refetch.
This keeps archive and unarchive symmetric at both the data and
watch-stream layers by returning the affected chat family from the
database, using those post-update rows for chatd pubsub fanout, and
covering descendant lifecycle delivery with a watch-level regression
test.
Closes#23666
_Disclaimer: produced using Claude Opus 4.6, reviewed by me, and
validated against Dogfood dataset._
The `ListAIBridgeSessions` query materialized and aggregated all
matching interceptions before paginating, then ran expensive
token/prompt lookups across the full dataset. For a page of 25 sessions
against ~200k interceptions (our dogfood dataset), this meant:
- Three CTEs scanning all rows (filtered_interceptions, session_tokens,
session_root)
- ARRAY_AGG(fi.id) collecting every interception ID per session
- Lateral prompt lookup via ANY(array_of_all_ids) running for every
session, not just the page
- ~90MB of disk sorts and JIT compilation kicking in
The improvement is to restructure to paginate first and enrich after: a
single CTE groups interceptions into sessions with only cheap aggregates
(MIN, MAX, COUNT), applies cursor pagination and LIMIT, then lateral
joins fetch metadata, tokens, and prompts for just the ~25-row page.
Measured against 220k interceptions / 160k sessions:
| Metric | Before | After |
|--------------------|--------|-------|
| Execution time | 1800ms | 185ms |
| Shared buffer hits | 737k | 2.6k |
| Disk sort spill | 86MB | 16MB |
| Lateral loops | 160k | 25 |
https://grafana.dev.coder.com/goto/fbODPGtvR?orgId=1 the results are
identical, just _much_ faster.

Also includes some additional tests which I added prior to refactoring
the query to ensure no regressions on edge-cases.

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.
<details>
<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.

This pull-request implements a `<ClientFilter />` to our `Request Logs`

filter against multiple clients at once however the frontend doesn't
currently have a nice way of supporting this (future improvement).

## 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.
Add a per-MCP-server `model_intent` toggle that wraps tool schemas with
a
`model_intent` field, requiring the LLM to provide a human-readable
description of each tool call's purpose. The intent string is shown as a
status label in the UI instead of opaque tool names, and is
transparently
stripped before the call reaches the remote MCP server.
Built-in tools have rich specialized renderers (terminal blocks, file
diffs,
etc.) and don't need this. MCP tools hit `GenericToolRenderer` which
only
shows raw tool names and JSON — that's where model_intent adds value.
The model learns what to provide via the JSON Schema `description` on
the
`model_intent` property itself — no system prompt changes needed.
<details>
<summary>Implementation details</summary>
### Architecture
Inspired by the `withModelIntent()` pattern from `coder/blink`, adapted
for
Go + React. The wrapping is entirely in the `mcpclient` layer — tool
implementations never see `model_intent`.
**Schema wrapping** (`mcpToolWrapper.Info()`): When enabled, wraps the
original tool parameters under a `properties` key and adds a
`model_intent`
string field with a rich description that teaches the model inline.
**Input unwrapping** (`mcpToolWrapper.Run()`): Strips `model_intent` and
unwraps `properties` before forwarding to the remote MCP server. Handles
three input shapes models may produce:
1. `{ model_intent, properties: {...} }` — correct format
2. `{ model_intent, key: val, ... }` — flat, no wrapper
3. Malformed — falls through gracefully
**Frontend extraction**: `streamState.ts` extracts `model_intent` from
incrementally parsed streaming JSON. `messageParsing.ts` extracts it
from
persisted tool call args.
**UI rendering**: `GenericToolRenderer` shows the capitalized intent
string
as the primary label when available, falling back to the raw tool name.
### Changes
- Database: `model_intent` boolean column on `mcp_server_configs`
- SDK: `ModelIntent` field on config/create/update types
- API: pass-through in create/update handlers + converter
- mcpclient: schema wrapping in `Info()`, input unwrapping in `Run()`
- Frontend: extraction from streaming + persisted args
- UI: intent label in `GenericToolRenderer`, toggle in admin panel
- Tests: 6 new tests (schema wrapping, unwrapping, passthrough,
fallback)
### Decision log
- **Option lives on MCPServerConfig, not model config**: Built-in tools
already have rich renderers; only MCP tools benefit from model_intent.
- **No system prompt changes**: The JSON Schema `description` on the
`model_intent` property teaches the model inline.
- **Pointer bool on update request**: Follows existing pattern (`*bool`)
so PATCH requests don't reset the value when omitted.
</details>
## Summary
Adds a "Generate new title" action that lets users manually regenerate a
chat's title using richer conversation context than the automatic
first-message title path.
## Changes
### Backend
- **New endpoint:** `POST
/api/experimental/chats/{chatID}/title/regenerate` returns the updated
Chat with a regenerated title
- **Manual title algorithm:** Extracts useful user/assistant text turns
→ selects first user turn + last 3 turns → builds context with gap
markers → renders prompt with anti-recency guidance → calls lightweight
model → normalizes output
- **Helpers:** `extractManualTitleTurns`,
`selectManualTitleTurnIndexes`, `buildManualTitleContext`,
`renderManualTitlePrompt`, `generateManualTitle` — all private, with the
public `Server.RegenerateChatTitle` method
- **SDK:** `ExperimentalClient.RegenerateChatTitle(ctx, chatID) (Chat,
error)`
- Persists title via existing `UpdateChatByID` and broadcasts
`ChatEventKindTitleChange`
### Frontend
- API client method + React Query mutation with cache invalidation
- "Generate new title" menu item (with wand icon) in both TopBar and
Sidebar dropdown menus
- Loading/disabled state while regeneration is in-flight
- Error toast on failure
- Stories updated for both menus
### Tests
- `quickgen_test.go`: Table-driven tests for all 4 helper functions
(turn extraction, index selection, context building, prompt rendering)
- `exp_chats_test.go`: Handler tests (ChatNotFound,
NotFoundForDifferentUser, NoDaemon)
## Design notes
- The existing auto-title path (`maybeGenerateChatTitle`, `titleInput`)
is completely unchanged
- Manual regeneration uses richer context (first user turn + last 3
turns + gap markers) vs the auto path's single first message
- Endpoint is experimental and marked with `@x-apidocgen {"skip": true}`

## 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*
Admins can now control whether the built-in Coder Agents default system
prompt is prepended to their custom instructions, rather than having the
custom prompt silently replace the default.
**Changes:**
- New `include_default_system_prompt` boolean toggle (defaults to `true`
for existing deployments) stored as a site config key — no migration
needed.
- GET `/api/experimental/chats/config/system-prompt` returns the toggle
state, the custom prompt, and a preview of the built-in default.
- PUT persists both the toggle and custom prompt atomically in a single
transaction.
- `resolvedChatSystemPrompt()` composes `[default?, custom?]` joined by
`\n\n`, falling back to the built-in default on DB errors.
- Settings UI adds a Switch toggle with conditional helper text and a
"Preview" button that shows the built-in default prompt via the existing
`TextPreviewDialog`.
- Comprehensive test coverage: 15 subtests covering toggle behavior,
prompt composition matrix, auth boundaries, and integration with chat
creation.
- Adds `GET /api/experimental/chats/by-workspace` endpoint that returns
workspace_id → latest chat_id mapping
- Modifies FE to fetch this alongside the workspace list, gated on
`agents` experiment and render an "Agent" badge similar to the existing
"Task" badge in `WorkspacesTable`
- Badge links to the "latest chat" linked to the given workspace.
Notes:
- Intentionally uses `fetchWithPostFilter` for RBAC to decouple from
workspaces API — will migrate to `workspaces_expanded` view later.
- If users have multiple chats linked to the same workspace, the badge
will link to the most recently updated one.

## 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.

<!-- mux-attribution: model=anthropic:claude-opus-4-6 thinking=xhigh

## Summary
This change removes the steady-state "resolve the latest workspace
agent" query from chat execution.
Instead of asking the database for the latest build's agent on every
turn, a chat now persists the workspace/build/agent binding it actually
uses and reuses that binding across subsequent turns. The common path
becomes "load the bound agent by ID and dial it", with fallback paths to
repair the binding when it is missing, stale, or intentionally changed.
## What changes
- add `workspace_id`, `build_id`, and `agent_id` binding fields to
`chats`
- expose those fields through the chat API / SDK so the execution
context is explicit
- load the persisted binding first in chatd, instead of always resolving
the latest build's agent
- persist a refreshed binding when chatd has to re-resolve the workspace
agent
- keep child / subagent chats on the same bound workspace context by
inheriting the parent binding
- leave `build_id` / `agent_id` unset for flows like `create_workspace`,
then bind them lazily on the next agent-backed turn
## Runtime behavior
The binding is treated as an optimistic cache of the agent a chat should
use:
- if the bound agent still exists and dials successfully, we use it
without a latest-build lookup
- if the bound agent is missing or no longer reachable, chatd
re-resolves against the latest build and persists the new binding
- if a workspace mutation changes the chat's target workspace, the
binding is updated as part of that mutation
To avoid reintroducing a hot-path query, dialing uses lazy validation:
- start dialing the cached agent immediately
- only validate against the latest build if the dial is still pending
after a short delay
- if validation finds a different agent, cancel the stale dial, switch
to the current agent, and persist the repaired binding
## Result
The hot path stops issuing
`GetWorkspaceAgentsInLatestBuildByWorkspaceID` for every user message,
which is the source of the DB pressure this PR is addressing. At the
same time, chats still converge to the correct workspace agent when the
binding becomes stale due to rebuilds or explicit workspace changes.
## Summary
Adds a general-purpose `map[string]string` label system to chats, stored
as jsonb with a GIN index for efficient containment queries.
This is a standalone foundational feature that will be used by the
upcoming Automations feature for session identity (matching webhook
events to existing chats), replacing the need for bespoke session-key
tables.
## Changes
### Database
- **Migration 000451**: Adds `labels jsonb NOT NULL DEFAULT '{}'` column
to `chats` table with a GIN index (`idx_chats_labels`)
- **`InsertChat`**: Accepts labels on creation via `COALESCE(@labels,
'{}')`
- **`UpdateChatByID`**: Supports partial update —
`COALESCE(sqlc.narg('labels'), labels)` preserves existing labels when
NULL is passed
- **`GetChats`**: New `has_labels` filter using PostgreSQL `@>`
containment operator
- **`GetAuthorizedChats`**: Synced with generated `GetChats` (new column
scan + query param)
### API
- **Create chat** (`POST /chats`): Accepts optional `labels` field,
validated before creation
- **Update chat** (`PATCH /chats/{chat}`): Supports `labels` field for
atomic label replacement
- **List chats** (`GET /chats`): Supports `?label=key:value` query
parameters (multiple are AND-ed)
### SDK
- `Chat`, `CreateChatRequest`, `UpdateChatRequest`, `ListChatsOptions`
all gain `Labels` fields
- `UpdateChatRequest.Labels` is a pointer (`*map[string]string`) so
`nil` means "don't change" vs empty map means "clear all"
### Validation (`coderd/httpapi/labels.go`)
- Max 50 labels per chat
- Key: 1–64 chars, must match `[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9._/-]*` (supports
namespaced keys like `github.repo`, `automation/pr-number`)
- Value: 1–256 chars
- 13 test cases covering all edge cases
### Chat runtime
- `chatd.CreateOptions` gains `Labels` field, threaded through to
`InsertChat`
- Existing `UpdateChatByID` callers (e.g., quickgen title updates) are
unaffected — NULL labels preserve existing values via COALESCE
- Stores a deployment-wide agents template allowlist in `site_configs`
(`agents_template_allowlist`)
- Adds `GET/PUT /api/experimental/chats/config/template-allowlist`
endpoints
- Filters `list_templates`, `read_template`, and `create_workspace` chat
tools by allowlist, if defined (empty=all allowed)
- Add "Templates" admin settings tab in Agents UI ([what it looks
like](https://624de63c6aacee003aa84340-sitjilsyrr.chromatic.com/?path=/story/pages-agentspage-agentsettingspageview--template-allowlist))

## Problem
When chatd pushes a branch and then creates a PR (e.g. `git push`
followed by `gh pr create`), the gitsync background worker often picks
up the stale `chat_diff_statuses` row between the two operations. At
that point no PR exists yet, so the worker skips the row. However, the
acquisition SQL locks the row for **5 minutes** (crash-recovery
interval), creating a dead zone where the PR diff is invisible in the UI
until the user manually navigates to the chat.
### Root cause
1. `git push` triggers `GIT_ASKPASS` → coderd external-auth handler →
`MarkStale()` sets `stale_at = now - 1s`
2. Background worker acquires the row within ~10s, atomically bumps
`stale_at = NOW() + 5 min` (crash-recovery lock)
3. Worker calls `ResolveBranchPullRequest` → no PR exists yet → returns
`nil` → worker skips with `continue`
4. `gh pr create` completes moments later, but uses its own auth (not
`GIT_ASKPASS`), so no second `MarkStale` fires
5. Row is locked for 5 minutes before the worker can retry
Loading the chat works immediately because `GET /chats/{chat}` calls
`resolveChatDiffStatus` synchronously, which discovers the PR inline.
## Fix
When `ResolveBranchPullRequest` returns nil (no PR yet) **and** the row
was recently marked stale (within 2 minutes), apply a short 15-second
backoff via `BackoffChatDiffStatus` instead of letting the 5-minute
acquisition lock stand. Outside the retry window, the worker skips the
row as before — no indefinite fast-polling for branches that never
receive a PR.
To make the "recently marked stale" check work, `updated_at` is no
longer overwritten by the acquisition and backoff SQL queries. This
preserves it as a reliable "last externally changed" timestamp (set by
`MarkStale` or a successful refresh).
### Behavior summary
| Scenario | `updated_at` age | Backoff | Effective retry |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fresh push, no PR yet | < 2 min | 15s (`NoPRBackoff`) | ~15s |
| Old row, no PR | ≥ 2 min | None (skip) | ~5 min (acquisition lock) |
| Error (any age) | Any | 120s (`DiffStatusTTL`) | ~120s |
| Success (any age) | Any | 120s (`DiffStatusTTL`) | ~120s |
## Changes
- **`coderd/database/queries/chats.sql`** — Remove `updated_at = NOW()`
from `AcquireStaleChatDiffStatuses` and `BackoffChatDiffStatus`
- **`coderd/database/queries.sql.go`** — Regenerated
- **`coderd/x/gitsync/worker.go`** — Add `NoPRBackoff` (15s) and
`NoPRRetryWindow` (2 min) constants; apply short backoff only within the
retry window
- **`coderd/x/gitsync/worker_test.go`** — Add
`TestWorker_NoPR_RecentMarkStale_BacksOffShort` and
`TestWorker_NoPR_OldRow_Skips`
OpenAI Responses follow-up turns were replaying full assistant/tool
history even when `store=true`, which breaks after reasoning +
provider-executed `web_search` output.
This change persists the OpenAI response ID on assistant messages, then
in `coderd/x/chatd` switches `store=true` follow-ups to
`previous_response_id` chaining with a system + new-user-only prompt.
`store=false` and missing-ID cases still fall back to manual replay.
It also updates the fake OpenAI server and integration coverage for the
chaining contract, and carries the rebased path move to `coderd/x/chatd`
plus the migration renumber needed after rebasing onto `main`.
Fallback to the configured model name in PR Insights when a model config
has a blank display name.
This updates both the by-model breakdown and recent PR rows, and adds a
regression test for blank display names.

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._
## What
Adds per-user per-model auto-compaction threshold overrides. Users can
now customize the percentage of context window usage that triggers chat
compaction, independently for each enabled model.
## Why
The compaction threshold was previously only configurable at the
deployment level (`chat_model_configs.compression_threshold`). Different
users have different preferences — some want aggressive compaction to
keep costs low, others prefer higher thresholds to retain more context.
This gives users control without requiring admin intervention.
## Architecture
**Storage:** Reuses the existing `user_configs` table (no migration
needed). Overrides are stored as key/value pairs with keys shaped
`chat_compaction_threshold:<modelConfigID>` and integer percent values.
**API:** Three new experimental endpoints under
`/api/experimental/chats/config/`:
- `GET /user-compaction-thresholds` — list all overrides for the current
user
- `PUT /user-compaction-thresholds/{modelConfig}` — upsert an override
(validates model exists and is enabled, validates 0–100 range)
- `DELETE /user-compaction-thresholds/{modelConfig}` — clear an override
(idempotent)
**Runtime resolution:** In `coderd/chatd/chatd.go`, a new
`resolveUserCompactionThreshold()` helper runs at the start of each chat
turn (inside `runChat()`), after the model config is resolved but before
`CompactionOptions` is built. If a valid override exists, it replaces
`modelConfig.CompressionThreshold`. The threshold source
(`user_override` vs `model_default`) is logged with each compaction
event.
**Precedence:** `effectiveThreshold = userOverride ??
modelConfig.CompressionThreshold`
**UI:** New "Context Compaction" subsection in the Agents → Settings →
Behavior tab, placed after Personal Instructions. Shows one row per
enabled model with the system default, a number input for the override,
and Save/Reset controls.
## Testing
- 9 API subtests covering CRUD, validation (boundary values 0/100,
out-of-range rejection), upsert behavior, idempotent delete, user
isolation, and non-existent model config
- 4 dbauthz tests (16 scenarios) verifying `ActionReadPersonal` /
`ActionUpdatePersonal` on all query methods
- 4 Storybook stories with play functions (Default, WithOverrides,
Loading, Error)
<details>
<summary>Implementation plan</summary>
### Phase 1 — Tests
- Backend API tests in `coderd/chats_test.go` (9 subtests)
- Database auth wrapper tests in
`coderd/database/dbauthz/dbauthz_test.go` (4 methods)
- Frontend stories in `UserCompactionThresholdSettings.stories.tsx` (4
stories)
### Phase 2 — Backend preference surface
- 4 SQL queries in `coderd/database/queries/users.sql` (list, get,
upsert, delete)
- `make gen` to propagate into generated artifacts
- Auth/metrics wrappers in dbauthz and dbmetrics
- SDK types and client methods in `codersdk/chats.go`
- HTTP handlers and routes in `coderd/chats.go` and `coderd/coderd.go`
- Key prefix constant shared between handlers and runtime
### Phase 3 — Runtime override
- `resolveUserCompactionThreshold()` helper in `coderd/chatd/chatd.go`
- Override injection in `runChat()` before building `CompactionOptions`
- `threshold_source` field added to compaction log
### Phase 4 — Settings UI
- API client methods and React Query hooks in `site/src/api/`
- `UserCompactionThresholdSettings` component extracted from
`SettingsPageContent`
- Per-model mutation tracking (only the active row disables during save)
- 100% warning, "System default" label, helpful empty state copy
### Phase 5 — Refactor and review fixes
- Consolidated key prefix constant in `codersdk`
- Explicit PUT range validation (not just struct tags)
- GET handler gracefully skips malformed rows instead of 500
- Boundary value, upsert, and non-existent model config tests
- UX improvements: per-model mutation state, aria-live on errors

Continuation of https://github.com/coder/coder/pull/23067
Add filtering to the paginated org member endpoint (pretty much the same
as what I did in the previous PR with group members, except there I also
had to add pagination since it was missing).
Partially addresses #21813 (still need to make changes to the "add user"
button to be complete)
Since there are a lot of user tests already, I moved them into
`coderdtest` to be shared.
- Add `agents_workspace_ttl` site config (default: whatever the template
says a.k.a. `0s`)
- Expose via GET/PUT `/api/experimental/chats/config/workspace-ttl`
- Chat tool reads setting and passes `TTLMillis` on workspace creation
- Existing autostop infrastructure handles the rest (zero changes to
LifecycleExecutor, CalculateAutostop, or activity bumping)
- ⚠️ Template-level `UserAutostopEnabled=false` overrides this global
default. Not touching this.
- Frontend: "Workspace Lifetime" control in /agents/settings Behavior
tab (admin-only)

## Summary
The search field on `/agents/settings/usage` previously only matched
against usernames. This updates the SQL query to also match against the
user's display name via `ILIKE`, and updates the frontend placeholder
and variable names to reflect the broader search scope.
## Changes
- **SQL** (`coderd/database/queries/chats.sql`,
`coderd/database/queries.sql.go`): Added `OR u.name ILIKE '%' ||
@username::text || '%'` to the `GetChatCostPerUser` query's WHERE
clause.
- **Frontend** (`site/src/pages/AgentsPage/SettingsPageContent.tsx`):
Renamed `usernameFilter`/`debouncedUsername` to
`searchFilter`/`debouncedSearch`, updated placeholder to "Search by name
or username".

## Summary
Adds the database schema, API endpoints, SDK types, and encryption
wrappers for admin-managed MCP (Model Context Protocol) server
configurations that chatd can consume. This is the backend foundation
for allowing external MCP tools (Sentry, Linear, GitHub, etc.) to be
used during AI chat sessions.
## Database
Two new tables:
- **`mcp_server_configs`**: Admin-managed server definitions with URL,
transport (Streamable HTTP / SSE), auth config (none / OAuth2 / API key
/ custom headers), tool allow/deny lists, and an availability policy
(`force_on` / `default_on` / `default_off`). Includes CHECK constraints
on transport, auth_type, and availability values.
- **`mcp_server_user_tokens`**: Per-user OAuth2 tokens for servers
requiring individual authentication. Cascades on user/config deletion.
New column on `chats` table:
- **`mcp_server_ids UUID[]`**: Per-chat MCP server selection, following
the same pattern as `model_config_id` — passed at chat creation,
changeable per-message with nil-means-no-change semantics.
## API Endpoints
All routes are under `/api/experimental/mcp/servers/` and gated behind
the `agents` experiment.
**Admin endpoints** (`ResourceDeploymentConfig` auth):
- `POST /` — Create MCP server config
- `PATCH /{id}` — Update MCP server config (full-replace)
- `DELETE /{id}` — Delete MCP server config
**Authenticated endpoints** (all users, enabled servers only for
non-admins):
- `GET /` — List configs (admins see all, members see enabled-only with
admin fields redacted)
- `GET /{id}` — Get config by ID (with `auth_connected` populated
per-user)
**OAuth2 per-user auth flow:**
- `GET /{id}/oauth2/connect` — Initiate OAuth2 flow (state cookie CSRF
protection)
- `GET /{id}/oauth2/callback` — Handle OAuth2 callback, store tokens
- `DELETE /{id}/oauth2/disconnect` — Remove stored OAuth2 tokens
## Security
- **Secrets never returned**: `OAuth2ClientSecret`, `APIKeyValue`, and
`CustomHeaders` are never in API responses — only boolean indicators
(`has_oauth2_secret`, `has_api_key`, `has_custom_headers`).
- **Field redaction for non-admins**: `convertMCPServerConfigRedacted`
strips `OAuth2ClientID`, auth URLs, scopes, and `APIKeyHeader` from
non-admin responses.
- **dbcrypt encryption at rest**: All 5 secret fields use `dbcrypt_keys`
encryption with full encrypt-on-write / decrypt-on-read wrappers (11
dbcrypt method overrides + 2 helpers), following the same pattern as
`chat_providers.api_key`.
- **OAuth2 CSRF protection**: State parameter stored in `HttpOnly`
cookie with `HTTPCookies.Apply()` for correct `Secure`/`SameSite` behind
TLS-terminating proxies.
- **dbauthz authorization**: All 18 querier methods have authorization
wrappers. Read operations use `ActionRead`, write operations use
`ActionUpdate` on `ResourceDeploymentConfig`.
## Governance Model
| Control | Implementation |
|---------|---------------|
| **Global kill switch** | `enabled` defaults to `false` |
| **Availability policy** | `force_on` (always injected), `default_on`
(pre-selected), `default_off` (opt-in) |
| **Per-chat selection** | `mcp_server_ids` on `CreateChatRequest` /
`CreateChatMessageRequest` |
| **Auth gate** | OAuth2 servers require per-user auth before tools are
injected |
| **Tool-level allow/deny** | Arrays on `mcp_server_configs` for
granular tool filtering |
| **Secrets encrypted at rest** | Uses `dbcrypt_keys` (same pattern as
`chat_providers.api_key`) |
## Tests
8 test functions covering:
- Full CRUD lifecycle (create, list, update, delete)
- Non-admin visibility filtering (enabled-only, field redaction)
- `auth_connected` population for OAuth2 vs non-OAuth2 servers
- Availability policy validation (valid values + invalid rejection)
- Unique slug enforcement (409 Conflict)
- OAuth2 disconnect idempotency
- Chat creation with `mcp_server_ids` persistence
## Known Limitations (Deferred)
These are documented and intentional for an experimental feature:
- **Audit logging** not yet wired — will add when feature stabilizes
- **Cross-field validation** (e.g., OAuth2 fields required when
`auth_type=oauth2`) — admin-only endpoint, will add when stabilizing
- **`force_on` auto-injection** — query exists but not yet wired into
chatd tool injection (follow-up)
- **Additional test coverage** — 403 auth tests, GET-by-ID tests,
callback CSRF tests planned for follow-up
## What's NOT in this PR
- Frontend UI (admin panel + chat picker)
- Actual MCP client connections (`chatd/chatmcp/` manager)
- Tool injection into `chatloop/`
## Problem
The `/agents/settings/insights` page had several issues:
1. **Duplicate PRs** in "Recent Pull Requests" — multiple chats
referencing the same PR URL each produced a row
2. **Wildly wrong costs** — the cost subquery summed ALL messages across
the entire chat *tree* (`GROUP BY root_chat_id`), so every chat in a
tree got the same inflated total. When aggregated, the same tree cost
was counted N× per PR in that tree
3. **UI clutter** — too many stat cards, too many table columns, mixed
naming conventions
## Fix
### Backend (SQL)
- **Deduplicate by PR URL** using `DISTINCT ON (COALESCE(cds.url,
c.id::text))` across all 4 queries
- **Fix cost computation**: use two CTEs — `pr_costs` sums cost from ALL
chats that reference a PR (so review chats contribute), `deduped` picks
one row per PR for state/additions/deletions via DISTINCT ON
- **Tests**: 3 subtests covering multi-chat cost summing, different PRs
no duplication, and duplicate URL counted once
### Frontend
- **3 stat cards** (down from 5): Merged, Merge rate, Cost / merge
- **2-line chart** (down from 3): created (dashed) + merged (solid)
- **4-column model table** (down from 7): Model, Merged, Merge rate,
Cost/merge
- **4-column recent table** (down from 7): Title, Status, Cost, Created
— with `table-fixed` to prevent overflow
- **Consistent naming**: no mixed PR/PRs abbreviation, contextual labels
since page title establishes context
Adds a `deleted` boolean column to the `chat_messages` table. Messages
are never physically deleted from the database — instead they are marked
as deleted so that usage and cost data is preserved.
## Changes
### Migration
- New migration (000444) adds `deleted boolean NOT NULL DEFAULT false`
to `chat_messages`
### SQL queries
- `DeleteChatMessagesAfterID` → `SoftDeleteChatMessagesAfterID` (UPDATE
SET deleted=true instead of DELETE)
- New `SoftDeleteChatMessageByID` query for single-message soft-delete
- All read queries now filter `deleted = false`:
- `GetChatMessageByID`
- `GetChatMessagesByChatID`
- `GetChatMessagesByChatIDDescPaginated`
- `GetChatMessagesForPromptByChatID` (both CTE and main query)
- `GetLastChatMessageByRole`
- Cost/usage queries (`GetChatCostSummary`, `GetChatCostPerModel`, etc.)
intentionally still include deleted messages to preserve accurate spend
tracking
### EditMessage behavior
- Previously: updated the message content in-place + hard-deleted
subsequent messages
- Now: soft-deletes the original message + soft-deletes subsequent
messages + inserts a new message with the updated content
- This preserves the original message data (tokens, cost, content) in
the database
Follow-up to #23220, addressing Cian's review comments:
- **SQL casing**: Uppercase `UNNEST` to match `NULLIF`/`COALESCE`
convention in the query.
- **Builder pattern**: `chatMessage` struct now uses unexported fields
with a `newChatMessage` constructor for required fields (role, content,
visibility, modelConfigID, contentVersion) and chainable builder methods
(`withCreatedBy`, `withCompressed`, `withUsage`, `withContextLimit`,
`withTotalCostMicros`, `withRuntimeMs`) for optional/nullable fields.
- **Batch test in chats_test**: Replaced the `for i := 0; i < 2` loop
with a single batch insert of 2 messages to actually exercise the batch
logic.
- **Multi-message querier test**: Added `BatchInsertMultipleMessages`
test verifying 3-message batch insert with role ordering, sequential
IDs, nullable field semantics (NULL for zero UUIDs and zero ints), and
token/cost assertions.

Replaces the singular `InsertChatMessage` query with
`InsertChatMessages` that uses PostgreSQL's `unnest()` for batch
inserts. This reduces the number of database round-trips when inserting
multiple messages in a single transaction.
## Changes
- **SQL**: New `InsertChatMessages :many` query using `unnest()` arrays
following the existing codebase pattern (e.g.,
`InsertWorkspaceAgentStats`). Preserves the CTE that updates
`chats.last_model_config_id` using the last non-null model config from
the batch. Uses `NULLIF` for UUID columns to handle NULL foreign keys.
- **Go layers**: Updated `querier.go`, `dbauthz.go`,
`dbmetrics/querymetrics.go`, `dbmock/dbmock.go`, and `queries.sql.go` to
use the new batch signature (`[]ChatMessage` return type, array params).
- **chatd.go**: All call sites converted to batch inserts:
- **CreateChat**: System prompt + user message batched into one call
- **persistStep**: Assistant message + tool messages batched into one
call
- **persistSummary**: Hidden summary + assistant + tool messages batched
into one call
- Single-message sites use the same API with single-element arrays
- **Helper**: New `appendChatMessage` function simplifies building batch
params at each call site.
- **Tests**: All test files updated to use the new API.
Builds on top of #23213.
## What
Adds a new admin-only **PR Insights** page for the `/agents` analytics
view — a dashboard for engineering leaders to understand code shipped by
AI agents.
### Backend
- `GET /api/v2/chats/insights/pull-requests` — admin-only endpoint
- 4 SQL queries in `chatinsights.sql` aggregating `chat_diff_statuses`
joined with chat cost data (via root chat tree rollup)
- Runs 5 parallel DB queries: current summary, previous summary (for
trends), time series, per-model breakdown, recent PRs
- SDK types auto-generate to TypeScript
### Frontend (`PRInsightsView`)
- **Stat cards**: PRs created, Merged, Merge rate, Lines shipped,
Cost/merged PR — with trend badges comparing to previous period
- **Activity chart**: Stacked area chart (created/merged/closed) using
git color tokens (`git-added-bright`, `git-merged-bright`,
`git-deleted-bright`)
- **Model performance table**: Per-model PR counts, inline merge rate
bars, diff stats, cost breakdown
- **Recent PRs table**: Status badges, review state icons, author info,
external links
- **Time range filter**: 7d/14d/30d/90d button group
- **4 Storybook stories**: Default, HighPerformance, LowVolume, NoPRs
### Data source
All PR data comes from the existing `chat_diff_statuses` table
(populated by the `gitsync.Worker` background job that polls GitHub
every 120s). No new data collection required.
### Screenshot
View in Storybook: `pages/AgentsPage/PRInsightsView`
## Summary
Adds a `runtime_ms` column to `chat_messages` that records the
wall-clock duration (in milliseconds) of each LLM step. This covers LLM
streaming, tool execution, and retries — the full time the agent is
"alive" for a step.
This is the foundation for billing by agent alive time. The column
follows the same pattern as `total_cost_micros`: stored per assistant
message, aggregatable with `SUM()` over time periods by user.
## Changes
- **Migration**: adds nullable `runtime_ms bigint` to `chat_messages`.
- **chatloop**: adds `Runtime time.Duration` field to `PersistedStep`,
measures `time.Since(stepStart)` at the beginning of each step (covering
stream + tool execution + retries).
- **chatd**: passes `step.Runtime.Milliseconds()` to the assistant
message `InsertChatMessage` call; all other message types (system, user,
tool) get `NULL`.
- **Tests**: adds `runtime > 0` assertion in chatloop tests.
## Billing query pattern
Once ready, aggregation mirrors the existing cost queries:
```sql
SELECT COALESCE(SUM(cm.runtime_ms), 0)::bigint AS total_runtime_ms
FROM chat_messages cm
JOIN chats c ON c.id = cm.chat_id
WHERE c.owner_id = @user_id
AND cm.created_at >= @start_time
AND cm.created_at < @end_time
AND cm.runtime_ms IS NOT NULL;
```
Adds a new `site_config` entry that controls whether the virtual desktop
feature for Coder Agents is enabled. It can be set via a new
`/api/experimental/chats/config/desktop-enabled` endpoint, which will be
used by the frontend.
Introduce a three-way workspace sharing setting (none, everyone,
service_accounts) replacing the boolean workspace_sharing_disabled.
In service_accounts mode, only service account-owned workspaces can be
shared while regular members' share permissions are removed. Adds a
new organization-service-account system role with per-org permissions
reconciled alongside the existing organization-member system role.

## Problem
The chat listing endpoint (`GetChatsByOwnerID`) was using
`fetchWithPostFilter`, which fetches N rows from the database and then
filters them in Go memory using RBAC checks. This causes a pagination
bug: if the user requests `limit=25` but some rows fail the auth check,
fewer than 25 rows are returned even though more authorized rows exist
in the database. The client may incorrectly assume it has reached the
end of the list.
## Solution
Switch to the same pattern used by `GetWorkspaces`, `GetTemplates`, and
`GetUsers`: `prepareSQLFilter` + `GetAuthorized*` variant. The RBAC
filter is compiled to a SQL WHERE clause and injected into the query
before `ORDER BY`/`LIMIT`, so the database returns exactly the requested
number of authorized rows.
Additionally, `GetChatsByOwnerID` is renamed to `GetChats` with
`OwnerID` as an optional (nullable) filter parameter, matching the
`GetWorkspaces` naming convention.
## Changes
| File | Change |
|------|--------|
| `queries/chats.sql` | Renamed to `GetChats`, `owner_id` now optional
via CASE/NULL, added `-- @authorize_filter` |
| `queries.sql.go` | Renamed constant, params struct (`GetChatsParams`),
and method |
| `querier.go` | Interface method renamed |
| `modelqueries.go` | Added `chatQuerier` interface +
`GetAuthorizedChats` impl |
| `dbauthz/dbauthz.go` | `GetChats` now uses `prepareSQLFilter` instead
of `fetchWithPostFilter` |
| `dbauthz/dbauthz_test.go` | Updated tests for SQL filter pattern |
| `dbmock/dbmock.go` | Renamed + added mock for `GetAuthorizedChats` |
| `dbmetrics/querymetrics.go` | Renamed + added metrics wrapper |
| `rbac/regosql/configs.go` | Added `ChatConverter` (maps `org_owner` to
empty string literal since `chats` has no `organization_id` column) |
| `rbac/authz.go` | Added `ConfigChats()` |
| `chats.go` | Handler uses renamed method with `uuid.NullUUID` |
| `searchquery/search.go` | Updated return type |
| `gitsync/worker.go` | Updated interface and call site |
| Various test files | Updated for renamed types |
Creates a new table `ai_seat_state` to keep track of when users consume an ai_seat. Once a user consumes an AI seat, they will forever in this table (as it stands today).
Adds cursor-based pagination to the chat messages endpoint.
## Backend
- New `GetChatMessagesByChatIDPaginated` SQL query: returns messages in
`id DESC` order with a `before_id` keyset cursor and configurable
`limit`
- Handler parses `?before_id=N&limit=N` query params, uses the `LIMIT
N+1` trick to set `has_more` without a separate COUNT query
- Queued messages only returned on the first page (no cursor) since
they're always the most recent
- SDK client updated with `ChatMessagesPaginationOptions`
- Fully backward compatible: omitting params returns the 50 newest
messages
## Frontend
- Switches `getChatMessages` from `useQuery` to `useInfiniteQuery` with
cursor chaining via `getNextPageParam`
- Pages flattened and sorted by `id` ascending for chronological display
- `MessagesPaginationSentinel` component uses `IntersectionObserver`
(200px rootMargin prefetch) inside the existing `flex-col-reverse`
scroll container
- `flex-col-reverse` handles scroll anchoring natively when older
messages are prepended — no manual `scrollTop` adjustment needed (same
pattern as coder/blink)
## Why cursor-based instead of offset/limit
Offset-based pagination breaks when new messages arrive while paginating
backward (offsets shift, causing duplicates or missed messages). The
`before_id` cursor is stable regardless of inserts — each page is
deterministic.
