msg.rs

//! Messages between sessions: `<store>/messages.jsonl`, one line per `borg tell` or `borg ask`, from a
//! session on any harness (or the engineer's terminal) to the sessions on this machine (`local`, written
//! `local@<node>`), every session of the collective on every member's machine (`collective`, or its
//! synonym `all`, written `all` as it always was), one session on one node (`<session>@<node>`), or the
//! engineer (`engineer[:<email>]`): an `Address`, parsed in one place. Local first: a `local` line never
//! leaves this machine (borg-mesh lines.rs `travels` keeps it here), and a drone named on the command
//! line is this machine's when one here matches; a colleague's session is reached by its node, by
//! `collective`, or as the sender of what a reply answers. A 0.4.0 reader parses `local@<node>` as the
//! session `local` of that node, which no session is: it reaches nobody there.
//! Plain lines, each naming its node, so the mesh can union them like the other synced logs; on one
//! machine they need no mesh. A `borg pause`, `borg resume` or a remote `borg no` is a message too, of
//! a privileged `Kind` that counts only under an admitted role (steer.rs).
//!
//! A drone named on the command line (a designation as `borg top` shows it, or a session id prefix) is
//! resolved to its session id when the message is sent: designations ("Two of Five") shift as sessions
//! start and end and differ per node, a session id does not. A line's `by`, `name` and `harness` are its
//! sender's claims; only its `node` is checked (borg-mesh lines.rs `travels`), so a session is addressed
//! with its node, and a reply goes to the (node, `by`) pair of what it answers (`address`): a `by` that
//! names a local session from another node never routes a reply here.
//!
//! Delivery (`deliver`): a recipient's next prompt or tool call, where its harness takes context there
//! (harness `Caps`), shows each message once, as labelled peer data with the command that answers it,
//! never as the user's words, never to its sender. What one event shows fits the harness's context
//! budget (`Caps::context_chars`, shared with what the hook already answers), newest first; the rest
//! stay unclaimed for the next event, and a message longer than the budget shows its head and
//! `borg inbox --show <id>`. A broadcast reaches the sessions that were running when it was sent (as
//! steer.rs `applies`). A delivery is claimed by creating `<store>/messages/seen/<session>/<id>`
//! exclusively, so hooks running at once show it once, and acknowledged with a `Seen` line in the log;
//! a claim no `Seen` of its session lists (a 0.5.0 hook's, which wrote none, or one whose
//! acknowledgement failed) is acknowledged at the session's next read of the log.
//! Nothing sent: the hook costs one failed `stat`; no tell, ask or steer written since the session's
//! last look, a read of its `SCANNED` stamp and of the log's `GENERATION` more. Acknowledgements do not
//! count as a change (its own, another session's, one merged from the mesh), nor does the cut of lines
//! past the TTL a write makes (`Change::Expired`): every writer of this version records whether it
//! wrote talk or cut a line a reader may use (`wrote`), and a log written by anything else is read
//! again (`talk`). A prompt
//! whose context the harness drops (`"context": false`) and a subagent's event (`agent_id`) show
//! nothing: the messages wait for the session itself.
//!
//! Every line is checked on read (`Message::well_formed`, `Seen::well_formed`): the log syncs from
//! every member, and its fields reach prompts, a shell command and terminals. Text is redacted
//! (notes.rs `redact`) and kept whole up to `WIRE_TEXT` before it is hashed into the id; a text that
//! fits `V1_TEXT` is written as a v1 line, which 0.5.0 readers read too.
//!
//! Pacing (`window_for`): a sender may have a window of tells and asks to one recipient that it has not
//! acknowledged, by a `Seen` line its recipient wrote when shown them or by a reply. The window starts
//! at 1, doubles per acknowledged message, halves per message that expired unacknowledged, and is capped
//! (`WINDOW_CAP`). Acknowledgements pace only a recipient they can be expected from (`Pace`): a
//! broadcast (whoever runs when it is sent, maybe nobody) and the engineer (who may read where nothing
//! acknowledges) are never paced more strictly than 0.5.0 paced them (`V1_RATE_MS`), and a session of
//! another node is paced by that rate alone until its node acknowledges one of the sender's messages
//! to it (it may run 0.5.0, which never does). That cold start reads the pair's own lines, which sync,
//! not the mesh's record of what each node reads (presence.rs `reads`, local and different on every
//! node), so the window is a function of the lines alone, and once a `Seen` line of that node lists one
//! of the pair's messages, that pair is under its window on every node holding it.
//! `send` decides by the window, over the log it writes to (under its lock), and also refuses a message
//! that would push out one admitted before it (an earlier stamp, from a clock that stepped back or a
//! send that took the lock later) or one of its sender's unread messages to the same recipient
//! (`MEMBER_BYTES`). The TTL and the bound later remove the earlier lines a window was decided by, so a
//! replay can admit less than `send` did; what travels is decided by a bound every window keeps and
//! that reads no earlier line (`within_windows`), so a line once written stays admitted on every node
//! while it is held. A steer is never paced: a pause is answered by a resume. A `Seen` line is never
//! shown, never paced, and no reader that counts messages counts it: it does not parse as a `Message`.
//!
//! Bounded on write (`bound`): a line past `TTL_MS` goes, and of each member's lines the newest of each
//! class (conversation, steers, seen) stay while they fit `MEMBER_BYTES`, byte for byte as they were.
