+# AI Integration Rewrite
+
+## Goal
+
+Delete `OpenCodeManager.ts` (2,745 lines) and `streaming.ts` (621 lines). Replace all AI plumbing with **Vercel AI SDK v6**. Multi-provider from day 1.
+
+## Principles
+
+- AI SDK owns all protocol work: streaming, retry, token tracking, message format, tool loop
+- We own: tools, prompts, persistence, key management, A2UI, model catalog
+- No provider-specific code in business logic — AI SDK abstracts providers
+- Zod schemas shared between AI SDK `tool()` and MCP server — single source of truth
+- Provider = configuration, not code. Adding Anthropic Direct or OpenAI Direct = adding a config entry
+
+---

+| File | Lines | Why |
+|------|-------|-----|
+| `OpenCodeManager.ts` | 2,745 | Replaced by `ai/` modules |
+| `streaming.ts` | 621 | AI SDK providers handle all streaming |

+
+## Provider System
+
+### Dependencies
+
+```
+ai @ai-sdk/anthropic @ai-sdk/openai @ai-sdk/mistral
+```
+
+### Provider types
+
+| Provider | SDK package | baseURL | Models | Key |
+|----------|-------------|---------|--------|-----|
+| OpenCode (gateway) | `@ai-sdk/anthropic` + `@ai-sdk/openai` | Zen URLs | claude\*, gpt\*, gemini\*, o3\*, o4\* | OpenCode key |
+| Mistral (direct) | `@ai-sdk/mistral` | default | mistral\*, codestral\*, pixtral\* | Mistral key |
+| Anthropic (direct) | `@ai-sdk/anthropic` | default | claude\* | Anthropic key |
+| OpenAI (direct) | `@ai-sdk/openai` | default | gpt\*, o3\*, o4\* | OpenAI key |
+
+Start with OpenCode + Mistral. Adding direct Anthropic/OpenAI = registering a new provider entry, zero code changes.
+
+### OpenCode is a gateway, not a provider
+
+OpenCode Zen exposes two API-compatible endpoints behind one key:
+- `https://opencode.ai/zen/v1/messages` — Anthropic Messages API
+- `https://opencode.ai/zen/v1/chat/completions` — OpenAI Chat Completions API
+
+We use standard `@ai-sdk/anthropic` and `@ai-sdk/openai` with `baseURL` override. No community provider needed — the existing one (`ai-sdk-provider-opencode-sdk`) wraps the OpenCode CLI, not Zen.
+
+### `ai/providers.ts`
+
+Uses `createProviderRegistry` + `customProvider` with `fallbackProvider`. Model IDs carry a provider prefix (`opencode:claude-sonnet-4-5`, `mistral:mistral-large-latest`) — the prefix IS the routing. No static model maps.
+
+```ts
+import { createAnthropic } from '@ai-sdk/anthropic';
+import { createOpenAI } from '@ai-sdk/openai';
+import { createMistral } from '@ai-sdk/mistral';
+import { createProviderRegistry, customProvider } from 'ai';
+
+const ZEN_BASE_URL = 'https://opencode.ai/zen/v1';
+
+function createOpenCodeGateway(apiKey: string) {
+  const anthropicProvider = createAnthropic({ baseURL: ZEN_BASE_URL, apiKey });
+  // CRITICAL: .chat() = Chat Completions API. Default = Responses API (incompatible with Zen).
+  const openaiProvider = createOpenAI({ baseURL: ZEN_BASE_URL, apiKey });
+
+  return customProvider({
+    fallbackProvider: {
+      languageModel: (modelId: string) => {
+        if (modelId.startsWith('claude')) return anthropicProvider(modelId);
+        return openaiProvider.chat(modelId);  // .chat() required for Chat Completions
+      },
+    },
+  });
+}
+
+function buildRegistry(keys: { opencode?: string; mistral?: string }) {
+  const providers: Record<string, any> = {};
+
+  if (keys.opencode) providers.opencode = createOpenCodeGateway(keys.opencode);
+  if (keys.mistral) providers.mistral = createMistral({ apiKey: keys.mistral });
+  // Future direct providers: just add more entries
+  // if (keys.anthropic) providers.anthropic = createAnthropic({ apiKey: keys.anthropic });
+
+  return createProviderRegistry(providers);
+}
+
+// Usage: registry.languageModel('opencode:claude-sonnet-4-5')
+// Usage: registry.languageModel('mistral:mistral-large-latest')
+```
+
+Gateway (OpenCode) routes `claude*` → Anthropic Messages API, everything else → OpenAI Chat Completions API. Direct providers (Mistral) are 1:1. Adding a new provider = one config entry, zero code changes.
+
+---
+
+## Modules
+
+### `ai/blog-tools.ts` — 16 data tools
+
+Single source of truth. AI SDK `tool()` + Zod. Shared between chat and MCP.
+
+```ts
+export function createBlogTools(deps: BlogToolDeps) {
+  return {
+    check_term: tool({
+      description: 'Check whether a term exists as a category, tag, or both',
+      inputSchema: z.object({ term: z.string() }),
+      execute: async ({ term }) => { /* PostEngine queries */ },
+    }),
+    search_posts: tool({ ... }),
+    read_post: tool({ ... }),
+    list_posts: tool({ ... }),
+    get_media: tool({ ... }),
+    list_media: tool({ ... }),
+    update_post_metadata: tool({ ... }),
+    update_media_metadata: tool({ ... }),
+    list_tags: tool({ ... }),
+    list_categories: tool({ ... }),
+    get_blog_stats: tool({ ... }),
+    view_image: tool({
+      // Uses toModelOutput() for multimodal result — works across all providers
+      inputSchema: z.object({ media_id: z.number(), size: z.enum(['small','medium','large']) }),
+      execute: async ({ media_id, size }) => ({ base64, mediaType, caption }),
+      toModelOutput: ({ output }) => ({
+        type: 'content',
+        value: [
+          { type: 'image', data: output.base64, mediaType: output.mediaType },
+          { type: 'text', text: output.caption },
+        ],
+      }),
+    }),
+    get_post_backlinks: tool({ ... }),
+    get_post_outlinks: tool({ ... }),
+    get_post_media: tool({ ... }),
+    get_media_posts: tool({ ... }),
+  };
+}
+
+// Shared helper consumed by both tools and MCP
+export function buildAmbiguityHints(...): Promise<string[]> { ... }
+```
+
+MCPServer integration: `createBlogTools(deps)` → extract schemas + handlers → register as MCP tools. Zero duplication.
+
+### `ai/a2ui-tools.ts` — 7 render tools
+
+```ts
+export function createA2UITools() {
+  return {
+    render_chart: tool({ ... }),
+    render_table: tool({ ... }),
+    render_form: tool({ ... }),
+    render_card: tool({ ... }),
+    render_metric: tool({ ... }),
+    render_list: tool({ ... }),
+    render_tabs: tool({ ... }),
+  };
+}
+```
+
+A2UI message dispatch happens in `chat.ts` via `experimental_onToolCallFinish` — the tool itself just returns `{ success: true }`.
+
+### `ai/chat.ts` — ChatService
+
+The core. One `streamText()` call replaces both `sendAnthropicMessage()` and `sendOpenAIMessage()`.
+
+```ts
+import { streamText, stepCountIs } from 'ai';
+
+class ChatService {
+  private abortControllers = new Map<string, AbortController>();
+  private tokenUsage = new Map<string, TokenUsage>();
+
+  constructor(
+    private chatEngine: ChatEngine,
+    private providers: ProviderRegistry,
+    private blogTools: ReturnType<typeof createBlogTools>,
+    private a2uiTools: ReturnType<typeof createA2UITools>,
+  ) {}
+
+  async sendMessage(conversationId: string, content: string, callbacks: StreamCallbacks) {
+    const conv = await this.chatEngine.getConversation(conversationId);
+    const model = this.providers.getModel(conv.model);
+    const ac = new AbortController();
+    this.abortControllers.set(conversationId, ac);
+
+    const result = streamText({
+      model,
+      system: await this.buildSystemPrompt(conv),
+      messages: await this.loadMessages(conversationId),
+      tools: { ...this.blogTools, ...this.a2uiTools },
+      maxRetries: 3,
+      stopWhen: stepCountIs(10),
+      abortSignal: ac.signal,
+
+      // Anthropic: server-side context management (replaces truncateToTokenBudget)
+      providerOptions: {
+        anthropic: {
+          cacheControl: { type: 'ephemeral' },   // cache system + tools
+          contextManagement: {
+            edits: [
+              { type: 'clear_tool_uses_20250919', trigger: { type: 'input_tokens', value: 50000 },
+                keep: { type: 'tool_uses', value: 5 }, clearToolInputs: true },
+              { type: 'compact_20260112', trigger: { type: 'input_tokens', value: 80000 },
+                instructions: 'Summarize preserving editorial decisions and tool results.' },
+            ],
+          },
+        },
+      },
+
+      // Non-Anthropic: simple message window
+      prepareStep: async ({ messages }) => {
+        if (messages.length > 30) return { messages: [messages[0], ...messages.slice(-15)] };
+        return {};
+      },
+
+      onChunk: ({ chunk }) => {
+        if (chunk.type === 'text') callbacks.onDelta?.(chunk.text);
+        if (chunk.type === 'reasoning') callbacks.onReasoning?.(chunk.text);
+      },
+      experimental_onToolCallFinish: ({ toolCall, output }) => {
+        callbacks.onToolResult?.({ name: toolCall.toolName, result: output });
+        if (isRenderTool(toolCall.toolName)) {
+          const msg = generateFromToolCall(toolCall.toolName, toolCall.input);
+          if (msg) callbacks.onA2UIMessage?.(msg);
+        }
+      },
+      onStepFinish: ({ usage }) => {
+        this.accumulateUsage(conversationId, usage);
+        callbacks.onTokenUsage?.(this.tokenUsage.get(conversationId)!);
+      },
+    });
+
+    // Persist — response.messages gives clean provider-agnostic format
+    const messages = await result.response;
+    await this.chatEngine.persistMessages(conversationId, messages.messages);
+    this.abortControllers.delete(conversationId);
+  }
+
+  abort(conversationId: string) {
+    this.abortControllers.get(conversationId)?.abort();
+  }
+
+  async generateTitle(conversationId: string) {
+    const { text } = await generateText({
+      model: this.providers.getModel(titleModel),
+      system: 'Generate a concise title...',
+      messages: await this.loadMessages(conversationId),
+      maxTokens: 60,
+    });
+    await this.chatEngine.updateTitle(conversationId, text.trim());
+  }
+}
+```
+
+~80 lines replaces ~560 lines of provider-specific streaming code.
+
+### `ai/tasks.ts` — One-shot tasks
+
+```ts
+class OneShotTasks {
+  constructor(private providers: ProviderRegistry) {}
+
+  async analyzeTaxonomy(items: TaxonomyItem[], modelId: string) {
+    const { text } = await generateText({
+      model: this.providers.getModel(modelId),
+      system: TAXONOMY_SYSTEM_PROMPT,
+      prompt: buildTaxonomyPrompt(items),
+      maxTokens: 4096,
+    });
+    return parseTaxonomyResponse(text);
+  }
+
+  async analyzeMediaImage(imageBase64: string, mediaType: string, language: string, modelId: string) {
+    const { text } = await generateText({
+      model: this.providers.getModel(modelId),
+      system: imageAnalysisPrompt(language),
+      messages: [{
+        role: 'user',
+        content: [
+          { type: 'image', image: imageBase64, mimeType: mediaType },
+          { type: 'text', text: 'Analyze. Respond with JSON.' },
+        ],
+      }],
+      maxTokens: 200,
+    });
+    return parseImageAnalysisResponse(text);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## What Carries Over
+
+Domain logic only — no AI protocol code survives.
+
+| What | Source | Destination |
+|------|--------|-------------|
+| 16 blog tool execute functions | `OpenCodeManager.executeTool()` | `ai/blog-tools.ts` |
+| 7 A2UI tool definitions | `OpenCodeManager.getToolDefinitions()` | `ai/a2ui-tools.ts` |
+| System prompt construction | `OpenCodeManager.buildSystemPrompt()` | `ai/chat.ts` |
+| One-shot prompts (taxonomy, image) | `OpenCodeManager.analyze*()` | `ai/tasks.ts` |
+| A2UI generator + catalog | `a2ui/` | `a2ui/` (unchanged) |
+| Conversation persistence | `ChatEngine` | `ChatEngine` (unchanged) |
+| Model catalog | `ModelCatalogEngine` | `ModelCatalogEngine` (unchanged) |
+| Key encryption | `SecureKeyStore` | `SecureKeyStore` (extended) |
+| MCP proposal tools | `MCPServer` | `MCPServer` (gains shared blog-tools) |
+| Model listing HTTP | `OpenCodeManager.getAvailableModels()` | `ai/providers.ts` (thin HTTP for model lists) |
+
+## IPC Changes
+
+### Remove (provider-specific)
+- `chat:validateApiKey`, `chat:setApiKey`, `chat:getApiKey` — replaced by generic
+- `chat:validateMistralApiKey`, `chat:setMistralApiKey`, `chat:getMistralApiKey` — replaced by generic
+
+### Add (provider-agnostic)
+- `chat:getProviders` — list configured provider entries
+- `chat:setProviderKey` / `chat:getProviderKey` — per-provider key management
+- `chat:validateProvider` — test provider connectivity
+
+### Keep (unchanged)
+- `chat:sendMessage`, `chat:abortMessage` — wire to `ChatService`
+- `chat:analyzeTaxonomy`, `chat:analyzeMediaImage` — wire to `OneShotTasks`
+- All conversation CRUD, model catalog, system prompt handlers
+- `a2ui:dispatch`
+
+---
+
+## Key Design Decisions
+
+1. **No façade** — IPC handlers wire directly to `ChatService`, `ProviderRegistry`, `OneShotTasks`
+2. **Anthropic context management** replaces `truncateToTokenBudget()` — server-side compaction, smarter than client-side estimation
+3. **Cache control** via `providerOptions.anthropic.cacheControl` at message + tool level
+4. **Extended thinking** — not now, but architecture supports it (just add `providerOptions.anthropic.thinking`)
+5. **Electron `fetch`** — AI SDK uses Node `fetch` (works in Electron 40). Escape hatch: `net.fetch` as custom `fetch` for proxy/SSL
+6. **Provider as config** — no per-provider classes. `ProviderRegistry` maps config → AI SDK instance. Add providers without code changes
+7. **`toModelOutput`** on `view_image` — single definition works for all providers, eliminates per-provider image formatting hack
+
+---
+
+## Execution Plan
+
+### Phase 0: Validate AI SDK + Electron (1 session) ✅ DONE
+1. ~~`npm install ai @ai-sdk/anthropic @ai-sdk/openai @ai-sdk/mistral`~~ ✅
+2. ~~Write integration test: `generateText()` through Zen gateway with `baseURL` override~~ ✅ 31 tests
+3. ~~Verify Electron `fetch` works (or set up `net.fetch` fallback)~~ ✅ Node fetch works
+4. ~~Verify Zen baseURL path conventions match SDK expectations~~ ✅ See findings below
+
+**Phase 0 Findings:**
+- **BaseURL paths confirmed**: `@ai-sdk/anthropic` appends `/messages`, `@ai-sdk/openai` appends `/chat/completions` — Zen-compatible
+- **CRITICAL: OpenAI Responses API vs Chat Completions**: `@ai-sdk/openai` v6 defaults to **Responses API** (`/responses`). Must use `provider.chat(modelId)` for Chat Completions (`/chat/completions`). All gateways (Zen, Azure, etc.) require Chat Completions.
+- **`providerId:modelId` routing works**: `createProviderRegistry` resolves via prefix — no static model maps needed
+- **`customProvider` with `fallbackProvider`**: Proven pattern for gateway routing with one rule: `startsWith('claude') → Anthropic, else → OpenAI`
+- **Zod v4 schemas work with `tool()`**: Parameterized schemas, `toModelOutput()` for multimodal results
+- **Anthropic `providerOptions`**: Cache control on system+tools, context management — all confirmed working
+
+### Phase 1: Tools + MCP dedup (1 session)
+5. Create `ai/blog-tools.ts` — 16 tools with Zod + execute (port from `executeTool` switch)
+6. Create `ai/a2ui-tools.ts` — 7 render tools
+7. Wire MCPServer to `blog-tools.ts` for `check_term` / `search_posts` — delete duplication
+8. Unit tests for all tools (mock engines, no AI calls)
+
+### Phase 2: Providers + Chat + Tasks (1-2 sessions)
+9. Create `ai/providers.ts` — `ProviderRegistry` with OpenCode gateway + Mistral direct
+10. Extend `SecureKeyStore` for multi-provider keys (`provider_${id}_api_key`)
+11. Create `ai/chat.ts` — `ChatService` with `streamText()`
+12. Create `ai/tasks.ts` — `OneShotTasks` with `generateText()`
+13. Update IPC handlers: generic provider management, wire to new modules
+14. Integration tests
+
+### Phase 3: Delete + ship (1 session)
+15. Delete `OpenCodeManager.ts` (2,745 lines)
+16. Delete `streaming.ts` (621 lines)
+17. Delete old MCPServer duplication
+18. Update all tests, full build pass
+19. Smoke test: chat conversation end-to-end, taxonomy analysis, image analysis
+
+---
+
+## Open Questions
+
+1. ~~**Zen baseURL paths**~~ — **RESOLVED**: `@ai-sdk/anthropic` appends `/messages`, `@ai-sdk/openai.chat()` appends `/chat/completions`. Verified from SDK source code and mock tests.
+2. **Model listing** — Zen model list endpoint vs AI SDK model discovery. Likely keep thin HTTP for now.
+3. **DB message format** — Current `chatMessages` schema stores role/content/toolCallId/toolCalls. AI SDK `response.messages` may use a richer format. Evaluate whether to migrate schema or adapt at persistence layer.
