Bernd RodlerandClaude Sonnet 5 1aa0a4686b fix(ai): turn a bare 'Failed to fetch' into an actionable BYOK error
chatPublic() calls the provider's /chat/completions directly from the
renderer. Verified live: a saved profile pointing at
platform.deepseek.com (DeepSeek's console) instead of api.deepseek.com
(their actual API) fails the CORS preflight outright - 403, no
Access-Control-* headers - which surfaces to fetch() as an
undifferentiated "Failed to fetch" with no status to inspect. Confirmed
the real API and OpenRouter both support being called directly from a
browser fine, so the architecture is sound; only the error message was
useless. Now names the URL and the likely cause instead.

Bernd Rodler 62b0455388 feat(ai): OpenCode provider management (B4) — "any LLM OpenCode supports", from inside VNCmail+
Before this, the OpenCode class could only use providers already authenticated
via its own CLI (opencode auth login) — this app could pick a MODEL, never add
a PROVIDER. That is the one thing standing between "OpenCode integration" and
the actual ask: any LLM it supports, added from here.

New GET/PUT/DELETE /api/ai/opencode/providers, backed by GET /provider (every
provider OpenCode knows — 180 on a real run) and GET /provider/auth (which
auth method each accepts). New "Manage providers" panel in the OpenCode
settings section: search, add a key, remove one.

Scoped to API-key auth only, deliberately — recorded in lib/ai/opencode.ts's
module comment. `PUT /auth/{id}` with `{type:'api', key}` is one HTTP call
with a schema-verified shape. OAuth entries in /provider/auth need a browser
redirect + callback this app has no page for, and some carry interactive
prompts beyond a single form (GitHub Copilot's deployment-type picker) — real
scope for later, not something to half-build. OAuth-only providers are still
LISTED, just marked "Browser sign-in only" rather than hidden, so the picker
stays honest about what it can't do here.

A real finding from testing this against opencode's actual behaviour rather
than trusting a 200: NOT EVERY PROVIDER BECOMES CONNECTED FROM A BARE API KEY.
Snowflake Cortex needs SNOWFLAKE_ACCOUNT alongside its token; a single key
field silently leaves it stored-but-unconnected with no error from the PUT
itself. Worse, the provider's own `env` array length does not predict this —
Azure also needs two env vars and DOES connect from one key. There is no
reliable way to know in advance, so the route now VERIFIES by re-listing
providers after the write and reports plainly when a key was accepted but the
provider still isn't connected, rather than reporting the PUT's own success.

Verified live end-to-end, twice: once confirming a simple single-field
provider connects and can be removed cleanly, once confirming the honest
"stored but not connected" case is real and detected, not theoretical.
Cleaned up every throwaway credential from this machine's real opencode
config afterwards (checked auth.json directly, not just this app's view of it).

17 new/updated unit tests. Gate: tsc clean, eslint clean, 2527/2527 tests, build clean.

Bernd Rodler 87336981d3 feat(mail-index): 1-year retention by default + a recency retrieval leg
The two things that made real questions fail against a correctly-populated
index, both fixed at the root.

RETENTION (A1). `INDEX_WINDOW_DAYS = 30` was not merely a fetch bound — catch-up
also PRUNED mail older than it, so "summarise everything from July" was
unanswerable in August because the rows had been deleted, while the UI said
only that nothing matched. Now a user-visible setting (Settings → About &
Data): 30 days / 3 months / 1 year / everything, defaulting to 1 YEAR per the
product owner. The window bounds the fetch AND the prune from one value so the
two can never disagree and delete what was just written; "everything" skips
pruning entirely rather than falling back to some default bound. The per-pass
ceiling scales with the window (500/30d, hard cap 20k) because 500 messages is
right for a month and nonsense for "everything". Email/query now omits the
`after` filter entirely when unbounded — Stalwart rejects a malformed filter
rather than treating `undefined` as unset.

RECENCY (A2). Keyword search structurally cannot answer a question about WHEN:
bm25 ranks by term overlap, so "who sent the last email" matches documents
containing the word "last", and "all mails in July" matches documents
containing "July" — not documents dated in July. Both were asked by a real
user and both failed. New lib/mail-index/recency.ts detects time intent
(English + German, since the UI ships German) and turns it into a date RANGE;
new MailIndex.recent() answers it with an ordered scan over the already-indexed
`occurred_at`. The route ADDS these hits to the keyword hits rather than
replacing them — "what did the last mail from Anna say" is both kinds of
question at once.

Timezone subtlety worth knowing: bounds are built from LOCAL calendar
boundaries and serialised as UTC instants, so "July" covers the user's July.
A mail at 00:30 local on 1 July belongs to it even though its stored UTC
timestamp reads 30 June. My first test asserted the ISO string prefix, which
would have enshrined the opposite and passed only in UTC — the tests now
assert the local-time property instead.

SCOPE, stated by the product owner and now enforced structurally: the
assistant only ever sees the mailbox the user is signed in to. Both retrieval
legs resolve the active account (local leg by cookie slot, server leg by the
session's own JMAP account); there is deliberately no fan-out across connected
or shared mailboxes, and adding one would be a policy change, not a feature.

Gate: tsc clean, eslint clean, 2520/2520 tests (8 new for recency intent), build clean.

Bernd Rodler 98dcd3b1e9 feat(ai): OpenCode provider class; fix retrieval reading the wrong account's index
Three things, all from running the real thing rather than trusting a status code.

1. OpenCode as a 4th AI class (lib/ai/opencode.ts + app/api/ai/opencode/*).
   A locally-running `opencode serve` — the same runtime Paperclip drives as
   an adapter. Its appeal over a BYOK profile is precisely what was broken
   before: opencode owns provider auth itself, so there is NO api key for
   this app to hold, and it reports a REAL model list (25 on this machine)
   instead of asking the user to type an exact provider-specific model id
   from memory. Typing "Sonnet 5" into a free-text box and getting a bare
   "Provider returned 401" is the failure this removes.

   IMPORTANT trap, documented in the module header and pinned by a test:
   opencode is NOT OpenAI-compatible. `/v1/models` and `/v1/chat/completions`
   both answer 200 — because a web-UI catch-all serves index.html for ANY
   unknown path. I built the first version against that assumed compatibility
   on the strength of two 200s and had to throw it away once I read a body.
   Every probe now validates the parsed shape and content-type, never the
   status alone. The real API is GET /api/model + POST /session +
   POST /session/{id}/message, and the reply's `reasoning` parts are stripped
   so a model's private chain of thought can never surface as the answer.

   Proxied through our own backend (like the `server` class) because the
   desktop renderer's origin is a random port that changes every launch;
   same-origin sidesteps opencode's CORS allowlist entirely. Loopback-only by
   construction: a non-loopback OPENCODE_BASE_URL is refused, since "local,
   no keys, nothing leaves the device" is the whole point of this class.

2. Retrieval read the WRONG ACCOUNT'S index. The indexer writes under the
   active account's cookie slot (catchUpIndex passes it) but fetchLocalLeg
   omitted `?slot=`, so search resolved to whichever account the multi-slot
   resolver found first. Single-account installs never noticed; a real
   multi-account/shared-mailbox setup reads an empty store every time. Both
   call sites now pass the active slot.

3. "No local mail index available in this session" was shown even when the
   index existed and simply matched nothing — actively misleading, and it
   masked the missing-SESSION_SECRET bug for hours. AskResult now carries
   retrievalState ('augmented' | 'no-match' | 'no-index') and the two cases
   get different words: build the index, versus rephrase (with the honest
   caveat that keyword search answers content questions better than recency
   ones like "the last mail").

Verified live against real opencode 1.18.14: discovery found 25 models and a
real prompt round-tripped the exact expected answer through the real helper
code, not curl. Gate: tsc clean, eslint clean, 2512/2512 unit tests (10 new,
incl. one that fails if the HTML catch-all is ever accepted as an API), build clean.

Bernd Rodler 91b282d746 feat(ai): real retrieval — SourceRef, RRF fusion, real embedding leg (P3/P4)
Full retrieval pipeline per docs/AI-ASSISTANT-CONCEPT.md §7/§8.1, real end
to end, not mocked:

- lib/ai/retrieval/types.ts: SourceRef + RetrieverAdapter schema. Nothing
  past this file needs to know what a mailbox is - fusion, hydration and
  citation rendering all operate on SourceRef, so adding another product
  later (VNCtalk, the doc's P7) is one more adapter, not a rewrite.
- lib/ai/retrieval/fusion.ts: Reciprocal Rank Fusion, score = Σ1/(k+rank),
  k=60. Deliberately excludes collectionId from the fusion identity - a
  JMAP email can live in more than one mailbox, and the two legs can
  legitimately disagree on which is "primary" for the same message;
  itemId is the real identity. 5 unit tests, including that exact
  double-count case.
- lib/ai/retrieval/mail-embeddings.ts: the server embedding leg. Real
  JMAP Email/query+Email/get (server-side, via the session's own
  auth - see the getStalwartCredentials fix below), real embeddings via
  Ollama's /api/embed (nomic-embed-text), real cosine similarity ranking.
  In-memory cache per account with a 5-minute TTL, not a persistent
  vector store - that's real follow-up work (the doc's own P4), not a
  same-night stretch goal on top of everything else built tonight.
- app/api/ai/retrieve/route.ts: wires it together. ACL note: only ever
  searches the authenticated session's own account - there's no
  shared-mailbox fan-out to pre-filter yet since group accounts are still
  deferred entirely, so nothing here can leak across accounts because
  nothing crosses the account boundary in the first place.
- lib/ai/local-client.ts: retrieveContext() now runs both legs
  (app/api/offline/search's local FTS + the new server embedding leg) in
  parallel and RRF-fuses them, same as before if only one leg is present.

Also, while verifying live: found and fixed embedding-only models
(nomic-embed-text) leaking into the *chat* model picker for both `local`
and `server` classes - Ollama lists them in the same /api/tags response,
but calling /api/chat with one fails outright. Filtered by `capabilities`
(fails open if absent, for older Ollama).

Verified live, for real: pulled nomic-embed-text, logged in via the real
(non-demo) auth flow, asked "When is check-in for the Villa sul Lago
booking?" against the seeded mock inbox - got back "Check-in ... is
scheduled for Saturday 28 March from 15:00 [1]" with 6 real ranked
citations, [1] correctly pointing at the actual booking confirmation
email. Real semantic retrieval finding the right email and citing it
correctly, not a canned response.

Also fixed two pre-existing, unrelated test failures found while running
the full suite for the first time in a while (confirmed via diff against
origin/main - neither touched by anything built tonight; neither pipeline's
CI runs the full vitest suite, only test:translations, which is how these
went uncaught): lib/__tests__/builtin-themes.test.ts hardcoded "exactly 6"
themes and asserted every theme's author is 'Built-in', both stale since
VNClagoon/SRC (author: 'VNC') were added this week bringing the real count
to 8. Left the also-pre-existing, timing-sensitive
jmap-client-resilience.test.ts flake unfixed - out of scope, needs its own
investigation, not a quick correct fix.

Full suite: typecheck clean, lint clean, translations 48/48, production
build succeeds, 2486/2486 vitest (previously 2481/2481 + 2 pre-existing
failures + the new fusion/entitlement tests).

Bernd Rodler dda7adf565 feat(ai): multi-key BYOK, real server class, real entitlement enforcement
Three pieces built together tonight since they're naturally linked (the
server-class proxy is the real entitlement enforcement chokepoint):

1. Multi-key BYOK (public class): several named provider profiles
   (name/baseUrl/model), each with its own key in lib/ai/key-store.ts
   (keyed by profile id, not a single fixed 'public' slot). The "Try it"
   pane lets you pick which saved profile answers each question - not one
   fixed default.

2. `server` class, real: app/api/ai/server/{models,chat} proxy through
   this app's own backend to AI_SERVER_BASE_URL - same-origin from the
   browser, no CORS/OLLAMA_ORIGINS story at all, standing in tonight for
   VNC's EU/CH-hosted infra with the real Ollama on this Mac (swapping to
   the real instance tomorrow is a config change).

3. Real entitlement enforcement (lib/ai/entitlement.ts), scoped to `server`
   only (not local/public, per the 2026-08-05 decisions): checkAndAssignSeat()
   re-validates on every /api/ai/server/chat call - first use auto-assigns a
   seat if any remain, further calls from an unlicensed user get a 402 with
   a specific reason. recordUsage() appends to an append-only metering
   ledger (timestamp/user/model/tokens/latency) that IS the billing record.
   Admin data endpoints at /api/admin/ai/entitlement (seat total, revoke) -
   the visual admin console is a separate, not-yet-built task.

Two real bugs found and fixed during verification, not just claimed fixed:
- /api/ai/policy never actually added 'server' to entitlement.classes even
  when AI_SERVER_BASE_URL was set (only the type comment was updated) - the
  Server radio option silently never appeared until this was caught live.
- The new routes used readStalwartAuthContext(0) (hardcoded slot, SSO/reauth-
  specific) instead of getStalwartCredentials() (the general multi-slot
  session resolver every other authenticated route uses) - reachable but
  wrong, and would have hidden a real auth gap behind "works on my slot".

Verified end-to-end for real: built + ran the actual server, logged in via
the real (non-demo) auth flow, selected Server, listed the real Ollama
models through the proxy, asked "Reply with exactly the words: SERVER CLASS
WORKS" and got back exactly that - plus confirmed on disk (not just in the
UI) that data/admin-state/ai-entitlement.json recorded the seat assignment
and ai-metering.jsonl recorded real prompt/completion token counts and
latency from the actual model call. Rejection-path logic (seat limit
reached, zero seats configured, revocation) covered by 5 new unit tests
rather than a second live round trip. Full suite: typecheck clean, lint
clean, translations 48/48, production build succeeds.

Bernd Rodler 5d7ae230ce feat(ai): real local Ollama chat + BYOK public provider
Decisions 2026-08-05 evening (reprioritizing docs/AI-ASSISTANT-CONCEPT.md's
original P1/P2 server-first sequencing to local-first, since a real Ollama
instance already runs on this Mac with a full model set):

- `local` ships free, no entitlement check — always available wherever
  supportsLocalLlm() is true.
- `public` (BYOK) is available too, explicitly unmonitored for now — no
  seats/metering/consent backend. This reverses the concept doc's decision
  #1 (server-side-only key custody): the client holds its own key, matching
  vncmail-native's existing pattern.
- `server` (VNC-hosted) stays unwired client-side; that infra is "this
  MacBook tonight, the dev k8s cluster tomorrow."

New:
- lib/ai/local-client.ts: listLocalModels/testLocalConnection/chatLocal/
  chatPublic, ported near-verbatim from vncmail-native's proven
  src/api/ai.ts. Direct browser-side fetch, not proxied through this app's
  own server — a server-side proxy would reach the *server's* loopback, not
  the user's own laptop, which defeats the point of "local" once this app
  is hosted remotely.
- lib/ai/key-store.ts: client-held BYOK storage (localStorage — this repo's
  existing convention for client state, no OS keychain reachable from a
  browser tab).
- lib/ai/local-settings.ts: isolated persistence for provider/model/base-URL
  choices. Deliberately NOT folded into stores/settings-store.ts, which has
  a hand-maintained export/import enumeration this prototype-scope state
  doesn't belong in yet.
- Retrieval reuses this app's own already-built app/api/offline/search
  (encrypted SQLite/FTS5 mail index) as context when available, and
  degrades to unaugmented chat — not an error — when it 404s/503s (no index
  in this session, e.g. plain browser rather than Electron).

Rewrote components/settings/ai-assistant-settings.tsx: provider picker,
local runtime config (base URL, model list/refresh, test connection with a
CORS-aware diagnostic per the concept doc's own note on the browser row),
public BYOK config (base URL, model, key, client-side consent toggle), and
a working Ask box.

Verified: typecheck clean, lint clean, translations pass, production build
succeeds. Live-tested against the real Ollama on this machine (confirmed
running: qwen2.5:32b, gemma4, deepseek-r1, llama3.2, hermes3, qwen3) via a
local server + demo-mode session — admin flag round-trips correctly, the
pane renders both provider options, and the CORS-diagnostic path fires
correctly on a real (if here environment-sandboxed, not Ollama-side)
connection failure. Full success end-to-end still wants a real, unsandboxed
browser tab against this Mac's loopback to close out.
