Review-only companion to kahme247#223. Identical head and matching upstream base.

Codex and CodeRabbit have current availability evidence on this repository (#82). Upstream is read-only for this account, so review requests go here after upstream CI is green.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Tool-result images now remain available after reopening or reloading sessions, with previews and full-size viewing.
    • Image previews are served in supported formats, including WebP thumbnails when available.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Missing tool-result images now show an unavailable-image message instead of being silently omitted.
    • Live tool-result images are delivered as links rather than inline image data.

History loads dropped tool-result images for a text placeholder with a wrong
byte count, and nothing loaded them back. Send them as /api/media/<sha256>
URLs instead, in history and in live frames, so no base64 reaches the
browser. The route serves the image from omp's blob store (or omp-web's
copy until omp writes it) and a 480px WebP preview generated once with
sharp; the lightbox opens the full image.
Serve omp-web's copy until omp's in-place blob write is complete, sweep
copies and previews daily, keep the base64 memo to 4 entries, rotate
previews by EXIF, show the unavailable-image text for missing blobs, and
serve buffers without copying. Tests cover traversal with a real decoy,
partial blobs, preview reuse, EXIF and every rewritten event type.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Tool-result images now use SHA-256-addressed media URLs in session data and live events. The media route serves validated images and optional WebP thumbnails. The message view uses thumbnails for display and the original image URL in the lightbox.

Media storage and serving
lib/media-cache.ts, app/api/media/[hash]/route.ts, lib/media-route.test.mjs, package.json, AGENTS.md
Image bytes are stored by SHA-256 and resolved from the blob store or cache. The route validates image formats and serves the source or an optional cached or generated WebP thumbnail. Tests cover image responses, thumbnails, orientation, invalid images, path handling, and cache cleanup.

Deferred tool-result images in session data and selected live events are converted to media URLs. User images remain inline. Missing blob references produce unavailable-image text. Tests cover session conversion, live events, snapshots, and unchanged user images.
Thumbnail and full-image display
components/MessageView.tsx, components/ImageLightbox.tsx
Tool-result images use a thumbnail URL when available, while the lightbox uses the original URL when provided.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to d672b

Tool-result images are now served through hash-addressed media URLs. In a rare race with the cache sweep, a request can return a server error instead of "not found". The impact is minor and bounded, so this is mergeable with a small follow-up.

P1 Badge Cache inline bytes while the omp blob is incomplete

When omp has created <blobs>/<hash> but is still writing it as this live frame arrives, this existence check skips the complete media copy. mediaFilePath() then has no copy size to compare and treats any existing blob as complete, so the media endpoint can return truncated bytes with a one-year immutable cache, leaving the image permanently broken for that browser even after the blob finishes. Compare the blob size with the decoded bytes, or retain the copy until the blob content is verified.

185-206: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Bound concurrent thumbnail generation for the same hash.

Several ?thumb=1 requests for an uncached hash can arrive together, for example from many open tabs. Each request decodes the full image with sharp in parallel. writeAtomic uses pid.Date.now() temp names, so two writes in the same millisecond can use the same temp path. One renameSync then fails with ENOENT. The thumbnail is still served in that case, so the effect is wasted CPU. To fix both, keep a Map<hash, Promise<Buffer|null>> of in-flight generations, or add randomUUID() to the temp name.

♻️ Dedupe in-flight thumbnails
+const inFlightThumbs = new Map<string, Promise<Buffer | null>>();
 export async function createThumbnail(hash: string, image: Buffer): Promise<Buffer | null> {
+  const pending = inFlightThumbs.get(hash);
+  if (pending) return pending;
+  const p = generateThumbnail(hash, image).finally(() => inFlightThumbs.delete(hash));
+  inFlightThumbs.set(hash, p);
+  return p;

P2 Badge Avoid immutable caching for thumbnail fallbacks

When createThumbnail() returns null because Sharp is unavailable or transiently fails, this branch serves the original image from the ?thumb=1 URL through image(), which applies a one-year immutable cache header. If thumbnail generation later becomes available, the same URL returns a WebP preview, but existing clients remain pinned to the full-size image and continue paying its decode-memory cost; return the fallback without immutable caching or redirect to the full-image URL.

P2 Badge Cap the recent-image cache by byte size

When tools emit several large inline images, this process-global map retains each complete base64 string until four other distinct images displace it. Because image size is unrestricted, a handful of screenshots can leave hundreds of megabytes live for the server's lifetime even after the rewritten events and requests are gone; enforce a byte budget or avoid retaining the full encoded strings as cache keys.

P2 Badge Revalidate cached hashes before returning

When an inline image has no completed omp blob, its media copy can be deleted after 30 days by a sweep triggered by a different image while the base64-to-hash entry remains in this process-local memo. If the same image is emitted again before that memo entry is evicted, this early return skips recreating the copy and /api/media/<hash> returns 404 for uncached clients. Recheck that either the blob or copy exists on a memo hit, and recreate the copy when neither does.

P2 Badge Retry media lookup after concurrent cache removal

When mediaFilePath() selects the copy while omp's blob is incomplete, the asynchronous readFile allows another media write to run the daily sweep after the blob reaches full size; that sweep deletes the copy, so readIfPresent(file) can return null and this request responds 404 even though the completed blob is now available. Retry mediaFilePath(hash) after an ENOENT so the image does not remain broken until the UI is reloaded.

P2 Badge Rewrite images embedded in subagent events

When a subagent runs an image-producing tool, subagent_event embeds the raw child event under payload.event, but this default branch leaves that nested tool_execution_update, tool_execution_end, or tool-result message_end untouched. Those frames therefore still send the complete base64 image over SSE—potentially repeatedly for accumulated updates—despite the new media-cache path; recursively rewrite the embedded event before emitting the outer frame.
