Completes the three views from #873. [m] cycles the metric (tokens/requests/errors/latency), [b] the breakdown (none/status/method/plugin).

Each series gets a letter derived from its label on a coloured background. Shaded blocks (█ ▓ ▒ ░) were tried first and replaced: against is nearly indistinguishable in most terminal fonts, so a reader could not tell which band was which without counting against the legend. Vendor prefixes are skipped when deriving the letter, or every claude-* yields c. Colour is an accelerant, never the encoding — the letter alone identifies the series, so the chart survives a monochrome terminal, a colour-vision deficiency, and a screenshot. Statuses ≥400 take the error colour, gated on breakdown=status so a method chart cannot turn red because a label looks like a status.

Every present series occupies at least one row, so a model that is a rounding error of the bucket stays visible. Traffic no label claims gets its own (unlabelled) band rather than being absorbed by the named series, and series past the palette fold into one named (other) band — a drawn band always has a legend entry.

Latency

1.6ms                    ┬
1.3ms                    ┼
 <1ms                    ┴
   0 ┼────┴─────┴─────┴─────
     0     0     0     1.2ms

  ┼ mean   ┬ +1σ   ┴ −1σ   (0 = no measured responses)

Marks and a range rather than bars: a bar encodes magnitude from a zero baseline, but mean latency has no meaningful zero and the spread is usually the more interesting half. Scaled to the tallest +1σ so no cap is clipped, lower cap clamped at the axis. A window with no measured responses says so rather than drawing an empty grid that reads as zero latency. [b] is not offered under latency — the aggregator holds no per-label latency — and neither the footer nor the header claims otherwise.

Server-side fix

by plugin silently meant "plugins that ran on the response". The listener splits invocations by phase, and Record counts only response events, so a plugin acting only on the request (context-guru, tool-pruneWritesRequestBody with a stub OnResponse) appeared in neither. Request-phase plugin names are now held by RequestID and merged when the paired response arrives, so each inherits that response's tokens and latency while one turn still counts once. Pairing by id rather than position matters under concurrency; the pending map is bounded and swept so an abandoned turn cannot leak an entry per request.

Testing

~90 new tests. Colour is asserted through isErrorSeries rather than ANSI bytes — lipgloss strips colour with no TTY, always true under go test, so a byte-level assertion would pass vacuously. Verified live against a proxy serving mixed 200/429/500 traffic and a request-phase plugin.

Several fixes here came from reproducing a reported symptom rather than reading the code, and are worth calling out because the earlier tests passed straight through them:

  • Allotment took each series' share against the bucket total, which is not the sum of what it draws — wrong in both directions. Under: a bucket 10% claimed by labels drew as a solid single-series bar. Over: per-plugin sub-totals intentionally exceed the bucket, so rows over-allotted and whole series fell off the top of every by-plugin chart. Shares are now taken against the drawn sum.
  • A short bar kept the first bands by position, dropping the (unlabelled) remainder that keeps it honest; and on a one-row bar the remainder was excluded by truncation, giving the row to a series holding 3% of the bucket.
  • humanizeDurationMs truncated, so 9.99ms rendered as "9ms" — rounding down past a whole millisecond, introduced while fixing a label-width overflow.
  • Value labels touched (1.2ms0) because a 5-column label exactly filled the 5-column stride; barGap is now 2, and renderAxis derives tick spacing from it.

Width and magnitude are now swept rather than sampled, since every one of these lived at a boundary.

The unbridged-CONNECT ACTION label that was here is now #886, to keep this PR reviewable.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added latency metrics with whisker charts and readable duration labels.
    • Added usage breakdowns by status, method, and plugin.
    • Improved stacked charts with clearer series markers, legends, and “other” grouping.
    • Usage controls now use m for metrics and b for breakdowns.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved usage attribution across request and response events.
    • Prevented latency views from displaying unavailable breakdown controls.
    • Improved chart rendering for unlabelled and low-volume traffic.

Completes the three views from rossoctl#873. [g] cycles the grouping
(none/status/method/plugin) and [t] gains a latency metric.

Stacked bars break each bucket down by series. Colour is not the encoding:
each series also gets a distinct texture (█ ▓ ▒ ░, then · for overflow), so
the chart survives a terminal without colour, a colour-vision deficiency,
and a screenshot pasted into an issue. Statuses >= 400 and denials render
red, gated on group=status — "429" is a plausible model name, and a method
chart must not turn red because a label looks like a status.

Segments are whole cells while the ungrouped view keeps eighths, because a
fractional top cell cannot also encode a segment boundary. That is why
ungrouped is its own state rather than a special case of grouping.

Latency gets marks and a range instead of bars: a bar encodes magnitude
from a zero baseline, but mean latency has no meaningful zero and the
spread is usually the more interesting half. Scaled to the tallest +1σ so
no cap is clipped, with the lower cap clamped at the axis since a whisker
below zero reads as negative latency. A window with no measured responses
says so rather than drawing an empty grid that reads as zero latency.
Grouping is ignored for latency — the aggregator carries no per-label
latency, so a "by status" latency chart would show the bucket-wide mean
under a heading implying otherwise.

Colour is asserted through isErrorSeries rather than ANSI bytes: lipgloss
strips colour with no TTY, which is always true under `go test`, so a
byte-level assertion would pass vacuously and keep passing if the rule
broke.

Live rendering surfaced two defects the unit tests missed. Adjacent value
labels touched ("1.2ms0") because a 5-column label exactly filled the
5-column stride; barGap is now 2, which keeps every label rather than
alternating them — alternating dropped the newest bucket's value on a
narrow terminal and hid the "0" that distinguishes an idle minute from a
small one, and truncating was worse still ("1.2ms" clipped to "1.2m" reads
as minutes). renderAxis now derives its tick spacing from barGap instead of
assuming 1. And a small peak made every latency gridline round to the same
string, so a repeated axis label is suppressed.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Usage pane now supports latency metrics and grouping by status, method, or plugin. It refetches grouped data and selects stacked-bar or whisker rendering. The usage aggregator now pairs request-phase plugins with response events. The events pane labels unbridged tunnel rows.

Request-response plugin pairing
authbridge/authlib/usage/usage.go, authbridge/authlib/usage/requestpair_test.go
The aggregator stores request-phase plugins by RequestID, expires bounded pending entries, pairs them with responses, deduplicates plugin names, and preserves response aggregation behavior.

Tunnel event rendering

Layer / File(s) Summary
Unbridged tunnel row labeling
authbridge/cmd/abctl/tui/events_pane.go, authbridge/cmd/abctl/tui/events_pane_test.go
The events pane labels unbridged CONNECT tunnel-open rows as tunnel while preserving denied actions and bridged inner-request actions.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to d31f0

Usage reporting adds grouped charts, latency views, and request-response plugin attribution. Two bounded accounting edge cases remain: folded cost-only series may lose cost, and stale pending request data may be attributed to a later response; these should be addressed or explicitly accepted before relying on affected breakdowns.

Two problems reported against `tokens — by method`, where the reporter's
three models were 2.2M / 105k / 912 tokens.

A series that is a rounding error of the bucket drew no band at all. The
per-series floor existed but could not work: rows were allotted
proportionally with a floor of 1 applied afterward, so with three series in
a ten-row bar the largest took 9 rows and the two floored ones landed on
rows 10 and 11 — the eleventh outside the bar, so its series vanished
anyway. Guaranteed rows are now reserved FIRST and the remainder shared by
proportion, so the allotment always sums to the bar height exactly. When
there are more series than rows, as many as fit get a row each, largest
first, and the legend still names the rest.

The shaded blocks (█ ▓ ▒ ░) were the wrong encoding. They looked
principled but █ against ▓ is nearly indistinguishable at a glance in most
terminal fonts, so a reader could not tell which band was which without
counting against the legend. Each series now gets a letter derived from its
label on a coloured background: claude-sonnet-5 is `s`, claude-opus-5 `o`,
claude-haiku-4-5-20251001 `h`. A band is self-describing, and the letter
alone identifies the series — colour is an accelerant, so the chart still
works in a monochrome terminal, with a colour-vision deficiency, and in a
screenshot.

Deriving the letter needs the vendor prefix skipped or every Claude model
yields `c`, which is the collision the scheme exists to prevent. Leading
vendor tokens are dropped repeatedly, not once, so "anthropic/claude-
sonnet-5" also gives `s`. Letters are deduped in rank order, so the largest
series keeps the intuitive one. Reds are absent from the series palette:
red is reserved for the >= 400 status rule, and a series landing on red
would read as an error.

The legend now wraps instead of eliding. It is the only key to a band, and
three model names do not fit 80 columns on one line — the previous version
reserved room for a "(+N more)" note even on the last entry, which dropped
a present model from the legend and left its band unidentifiable.

Three usability points, all fair.

`t` for "metric" named one of the four values (tokens) rather than the axis,
while every other binding in the pane is the first letter of what it
changes. It is now `m`, which was free.

`g` for "group" shadowed the global `g` (go to top) — worse than merely
inconsistent, since it broke a vim-style motion inside one pane. It is now
`b` for breakdown.

Changing the breakdown while viewing latency did nothing, because the
aggregator holds no per-label latency: there is no per-status or per-model
mean to plot, only the bucket-wide one. Rather than accept a keypress with
no visible effect, `b` is not handled under latency and the footer omits it
there — a key advertised as available but inert reads as a broken binding.

`r` to refresh had no rationale. The pane polls every 20s on its own, and
since the catalog-return fix even resuming the chain is automatic, so a
manual refresh bought nothing but a line of footer. Removed.

Tests now assert that every key the footer advertises is one the pane
handles, that the retired keys are gone from both the footer and the [?]
overlay, and that the pane does not claim `g`.

Five CodeRabbit findings, all verified against the code before changing
anything.

humanizeDurationMs truncated instead of rounding, so 9.99ms rendered as
"9ms" — rounding DOWN past a whole millisecond, which is a wrong number
rather than an imprecise one. I introduced this when bounding the branch at
9.95 to stop "10.0ms" overflowing the label width; the fix was the wrong
half of the problem. Every integer branch now rounds, and each branch bound
is the value that would round out of it, so 999.6ms is "1.0s" rather than a
six-character "1000ms". Tested by sweeping magnitudes rather than listing
points, since the failures live exactly at branch boundaries and a
hand-written list is what misses them.

The legend's width bound only applied when something was already on the
line, so a single long model name on a narrow terminal emitted 66 columns
at width 10. A lone over-wide entry now truncates its NAME, keeping the
mark and the total: those identify the band and say what it is worth, and a
name is recognisable from a prefix while a truncated number is simply
wrong.

The elision note is appended as sep+note but the fit check measured the
indented form, so it was three columns short — which happened to agree at
width 80 and nowhere else. It now measures what it appends, checked across
every width from 30 to 100.

The header read "by status" while viewing latency, asserting a breakdown
the chart does not show: the aggregator holds no per-label latency, so
renderUsageChart ignores the group entirely. It now says "no breakdown for
latency" and keeps the selection, so cycling back to a count metric
restores it. The [?] overlay says the same of the b key, matching the
footer, which already omits it there.

…omments

Five review findings, all verified against the code first.

allotRows took each series' share against the BUCKET total, which is not the
sum of what it draws — and is wrong in both directions.

Under: a bucket can carry traffic no label claims, so the labelled series
may sum to a fraction of the total. Every series was then under-allotted and
the leftover rows all went to the largest, drawing a bucket that is 10%
claude-sonnet-5 as a solid `s` bar — the height said "lots of traffic" and
every row of it claimed to be sonnet. Shares are now taken against the sum
of what is drawn, and the unclaimed remainder gets its own "(unlabelled)"
band, so a bar's height and its segments agree.

Over: per-plugin attribution counts one request once per plugin that ran, so
byPlugin sub-totals intentionally sum to more than the bucket (the
aggregator says so in foldInto). Rows were over-allotted, `acc` ran past the
bar height, and whole series fell off the top of the chart — on every
by-plugin bucket. Normalising against the drawn sum fixes both cases by
construction.

Series past maxNamedSeries were drawn with marks but named in no legend
entry. Marks come from the palette and repeat once it wraps, so a seventh
series could draw with the first one's mark while the legend named neither.
They now fold into one "(other)" band before drawing, reusing the
aggregator's own overflow name, and an existing "(other)" merges rather than
producing two bands that both mean "the rest".

Two comment corrections: a duplicated doc comment on renderLegend left from
an earlier rewrite, and a fallthrough rationale for `b` under latency that
did not hold — pageActivePane has no paneUsage case, so the key is simply
dropped rather than reaching another handler.

The previous tests passed through both allotment bugs. They now assert the
allotment sums to the bar height for over- and under-attributed series, that
unclaimed traffic draws its own band, and that every mark on the chart
appears in the legend. Verified by reverting the fix: the over-attribution
test reports 24 rows allotted for a 10-row bar.

Three review findings, all reproduced before changing anything.

renderLegend re-capped at maxNamedSeries, the same number foldTailSeries had
already folded to. The fold emits maxNamedSeries named bands plus "(other)",
so capping again cut that fold off: the largest unnamed band was drawn on the
chart and the legend replaced it with "(+1 more)", which named nothing.
Capping is foldTailSeries' job alone — renderLegend now names everything it
is handed, and the elision plumbing is gone.

A bar too short for every band kept the first barRows of them by position.
present ends with the unlabelled remainder, so that dropped exactly the band
keeping the bar honest: at three rows or fewer a bucket that was 94%
unclaimed reattributed all of it to the named series, reinstating the
misattribution the remainder exists to prevent. It now keeps the largest
bands by value, in stacking order.

Writing the test for that surfaced a further case: on a ONE-row bar the
remainder was excluded entirely, because 940/1000 truncates to zero rows, and
the single row went to a named series holding 3% of the bucket. The threshold
now rounds.

unlabelledTotal counted every shortfall while allotRows only drew one that
filled a row, so the legend could key a band the chart never drew. Both now
call one drawsRemainderBand predicate — they had already drifted once,
truncating in one and rounding in the other, which is why it is a named
function rather than a repeated expression.

context-guru showed a `modify` action in abctl's event timeline but was
absent from the usage screen's by-plugin chart.

The listener splits plugin invocations by phase — the request event carries
InvocationPhaseRequest, the response event InvocationPhaseResponse — and
Record counts only response and denied events, deliberately, since a request
event has no status, duration or token usage and counting it would double
every request. A plugin that acts only on the request therefore appeared in
neither. context-guru and tool-prune are exactly that shape
(WritesRequestBody with a stub OnResponse), so `by plugin` silently meant
"plugins that ran on the response".

Request-phase plugin names are now held by RequestID — the field whose doc
comment says it exists for this pairing — and merged when the paired response
arrives. Each request-only plugin gets that response's own tokens and
latency, and one turn still counts as one request: the request event
contributes labels only, never traffic. Pairing on the id rather than
positionally matters because a client can have several requests in flight,
and positional pairing would attribute one turn's plugins to another's
tokens.

A plugin that ran in both phases is deduped across the two halves, as are
repeated invocations from one plugin on a single pass.

The pending map is bounded and swept: a response that never arrives — client
disconnect, upstream hang, a proxy started mid-turn — would otherwise leak an
entry per abandoned turn on the synchronous append path. Past the cap the
labels are dropped rather than the map grown, and a response whose request
was never seen is still counted, just without request-phase plugins.

Verified live against a proxy: the request-phase invocation is now paired on
requestId and folded into the same bucket. Tests cover the attribution,
out-of-order pairing across concurrent turns, that a request event adds no
traffic and does not dilute the latency mean, orphans in both directions,
and the pending bound and sweep.

Review

One blocking issue: a bucket carrying traffic that no label claims renders as a solid bar of the largest series while the legend advertises an (unlabelled) band that is never drawn. Everything else is non-blocking.

The rest holds up well under scrutiny. The pairing logic in Record is correctly keyed by RequestID with bounded and swept pending state, and the 9 tests cover the cases that matter (id-not-position, both-phases-counts-once, response-without-request, bounding, expiry). humanizeDurationMs keeps its 5-column promise across every branch including the rounding boundaries. usageMetricCount = iota resolves to 4 as intended. The helpVisible early return in handleKey means the new b binding cannot collide with the overlay's b/f scroll keys. No security findings, no skipped tests.

One thing not inline-able (the file is not in the diff): authbridge/cmd/abctl/README.md's Keybindings table documents every other pane but has no usage-pane rows at all — not even u to open it. Since this PR changes user-facing bindings (tm, adds b, drops r), that table is the natural place to record them. The [?] overlay is updated, which is the primary discovery path, so this is a suggestion rather than a blocker.

must-fix — this early return fires before the remainder band is considered, so a bucket with traffic but no labelled series gets no allotment at all. stackedCell then exhausts its (empty) loop and hits the fallback at line 309, painting every row as series[0]. unlabelledTotal reaches the same bucket by a different path and does count it, so the legend keys an (unlabelled) band the chart never draws — the exact chart/legend divergence drawsRemainderBand was factored out to prevent, inverted.

Verified with a standalone repro of allotRows/stackedCell/unlabelledTotal: two buckets, one labelled 800/200 of 1000, one with 900 requests and an empty Series map:

legend (unlabelled) total: 900
bucket B (900 requests, zero labelled), barRows=9:
  row 9..1 -> plugin-x     (all nine rows)
allotRows for bucket B: []

Reachability is high in the by plugin view: any bucket whose turns invoked no plugin has non-zero requests and an empty Series. The same shape occurs under by status/by method for any bucket whose labels are absent. This is the same misattribution class the PR description calls out fixing ("drew a bucket that is 10% claude-sonnet-5 as a solid s bar"), just reached through seriesSum == 0 rather than through the proportion denominator.

Suggested shape: consider the remainder before returning, so a fully unclaimed bucket allots its rows to unlabelledLabel instead of nothing.

TestAllotRows_UnlabelledTrafficGetsItsOwnBand covers the partially labelled case (10% labelled, seriesSum > 0), which is why the suite passes straight through this one. Worth a companion case with Series empty and Counts.Requests non-zero.

suggestion — request events now acquire a.mu where previously they returned before the lock, and holdRequestPluginsLocked's two cheap guards (e.RequestID == "", e.Invocations == nil) run after it. For a plain proxied request with no plugins — Invocations is nil, which the foldInto comment notes is the common case — that is a global mutex acquisition per request that always ends in an immediate return.

Since neither guard touches aggregator state, hoisting them above a.mu.Lock() keeps the no-plugin request path lock-free, which matters given this runs synchronously inside Store.Append on the request hot path.

suggestionstripANSIWidth has no callers anywhere in the repo. Go only rejects unused locals and imports, so this compiles and CI stays green.

Either drop it, or use it in renderLegend — that function currently tracks display width with a parallel plain counter precisely because the styled string carries escape bytes, which looks like the job this helper was written for.

nitm usageMetric is unused in the body. The series totals arrive pre-computed in series and the bucket rewrite sums usage.Counts field-wise, so the metric never gets consulted. Safe to drop from the signature and the three call sites.

nitunlabelledMark is declared in the middle of seriesLetter's doc comment, so the whole block (starting "seriesLetter derives a one-character mark from a label") attaches to the const in godoc, and seriesLetter below ends up undocumented. Moving the const above the seriesLetter comment, with a blank line between, restores both.

nit — "Bounded by the palette so no two named series share a colour" holds for the named series alone, but renderStackedBars appends (unlabelled) to legendSeries and foldTailSeries can add (other). With the palette full at 6, seriesStyle's rank%len(seriesPalette) gives (other) rank 6 → the largest series' blue, and (unlabelled) rank 7 → the second's green.

Harmless by the design stated in usage_glyphs.go — the letter is the encoding and · vs o still disambiguates — so this is about the comment overclaiming. If you'd rather keep the invariant literally true, len(seriesPalette)-2 or a reserved grey for the two synthetic bands would do it.

Addresses pdettori's review on rossoctl#883.

**Blocking:** allotRows returned early on seriesSum == 0, before the
remainder band was considered. A bucket with traffic but no labelled series
therefore got no allotment at all; stackedCell exhausted its empty loop and
fell through to painting every row as series[0], while unlabelledTotal
counted that same bucket and keyed an (unlabelled) band the chart never drew.
That is the chart/legend divergence drawsRemainderBand was factored out to
prevent, arrived at from the other side — and the same misattribution class
this PR claims to fix, reached through the denominator being zero rather than
through the proportion. Reachable in the by-plugin view by any bucket whose
turns invoked no plugin.

The remainder is now considered before the empty check, so a fully unclaimed
bucket allots its rows to (unlabelled). Two tests cover it: the allotment
itself, and that the rendered bar contains only the remainder mark and agrees
with its legend. The existing test covered only the partially-labelled case
(seriesSum > 0), which is why the suite passed straight through this.

Non-blocking:

- Record acquired a.mu before holdRequestPluginsLocked's two cheap guards, so
  a plain proxied request with no plugins — the common case, and the one this
  runs synchronously inside Store.Append for — took a global mutex only to
  return immediately. Both guards are now checked before the lock; neither
  touches aggregator state. They stay in the helper so it is correct on its
  own terms.
- Dropped stripANSIWidth: no callers. renderLegend tracks display width with
  a running counter instead, which never builds a stripped copy.
- Dropped foldTailSeries' unused usageMetric parameter.
- Moved unlabelledMark above seriesLetter's doc comment — wedged between the
  comment and the function, it took the whole block in godoc and left
  seriesLetter undocumented.
- Corrected the maxNamedSeries comment: the palette bounds NAMED series, but
  (unlabelled) and (other) are appended outside that bound and wrap onto the
  first two named colours. Harmless by design — the letter is the encoding —
  but the comment claimed more than it delivered.
- README: the Keybindings table had no usage-pane rows at all, not even `u`
  to open it, and the Panes section described every pane but this one. Both
  now cover it, including why `b` is absent for latency.

Review

Re-reviewed at 3f2a7e2. All six comments from my previous review are addressed — clearing the changes-requested.

The blocking issue is properly fixed rather than moved. The empty check now runs after the remainder block, and for a fully unlabelled bucket remainder == total, so drawsRemainderBand's 2*remainder*barRows >= total holds for any barRows >= 1 — which barRowsFor guarantees for non-zero traffic. allotRows therefore always returns an allotment, stackedCell can no longer reach the series[0] fallback for these buckets, and unlabelledTotal shares the same predicate so chart and legend cannot diverge. TestAllotRows_FullyUnlabelledBucketDrawsTheRemainder is exactly the companion case (empty Series, non-zero Counts.Requests), and TestRenderStacked_FullyUnlabelledBucketMatchesItsLegend additionally pins the agreement rather than just the allotment.

The lock suggestion came out in a different shape than proposed — a pre-lock guard in Record rather than reordering inside the helper — and that placement is better, since it also skips the at/a.now() work. Verified safe: the request phase does nothing in Record but call holdRequestPluginsLocked, and the guard duplicates that helper's own condition exactly, so nothing is dropped that was not already. Keeping the helper's guard with a note about its reachability is the right call.

The two notes below are non-blocking. I am flagging the first mainly because CodeRabbit marked it resolved when it is not.

suggestion — CodeRabbit's "Do not pair an expired request half" comment on this line is annotated "✅ Addressed in commit 3f2a7e2", but it is not. That commit's only change to this file is the pre-lock guard up in Record. The claim here still takes the plugins unconditionally, and pendingTTL is consulted only in expirePendingLocked, which runs only once len(a.pending) >= maxPendingRequests.

So below 4,096 pending entries there is no expiry at all, and a response arriving more than pendingTTL after its request inherits stale request-phase plugin names. Bounded and cosmetic — it mislabels a band in by plugin rather than losing a count — so I am not blocking on it. But it is worth either fixing or declining deliberately, rather than inheriting a false "resolved".

The shape CodeRabbit proposed works: delete on claim unconditionally, and copy the plugins only when at.Sub(p.at) <= pendingTTL. The below-cap late-response test it asked for is also still absent, and that is precisely the case the existing expiry test cannot reach — it only exercises the path through the capacity sweep.

nit — this guard tests three of the four fields while the block it protects carries all four, including acc.CostMicros two lines below. A folded band whose only content is cost is therefore dropped rather than merged.

Unreachable today, since no metric renders cost, and it was already raised as a nitpick — so entirely your call. Adding || acc.CostMicros > 0 would make the guard agree with the comment just above the accumulator ("every field must be carried or a folded band would under-report").
