Summary

  • bound the in-memory workspace cache to 32 entries with one-hour idle eviction
  • preserve workspace IDs through SQLite-backed transparent restoration
  • prune conversation bindings older than 30 days without deleting workspace sessions
  • expose memory and session counts on /healthz without paths
  • add an opt-in one-shot heap snapshot guard

Evidence

  • Kuroi had 1,142 active workspace rows and DevSpace reached ~2.6 GiB RSS
  • Genos reached ~1 GiB RSS after about 4.5 hours
  • the registry had no eviction path

Validation

  • TMPDIR=/tmp npm test
  • npm run typecheck
  • npm run build
  • git diff --check

The default heap snapshot guard is disabled. Set DEVSPACE_HEAP_SNAPSHOT_THRESHOLD_BYTES to opt in.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added automatic heap snapshots when memory usage exceeds a configured threshold.
    • Enhanced health checks with memory, session, workspace, and persistence metrics.
    • Added workspace cache limits, idle cleanup, and least-recently-used eviction.
    • Added cleanup for stale conversation bindings while preserving active workspace sessions.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved shutdown handling for background monitoring and maintenance tasks.
  • Configuration

    • Added support for configuring the memory threshold that triggers diagnostic snapshots.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds configurable heap snapshot capture, runtime health metrics, workspace cache eviction and pruning, stale conversation cleanup, and persistence statistics. The server integrates monitoring and maintenance into startup and shutdown.

Changes

Runtime diagnostics and workspace maintenance

Layer / File(s)Summary
Heap snapshot configuration and guard
src/config.ts, src/config.test.ts, src/heap-snapshot-guard.ts
ServerConfig accepts a positive heap snapshot threshold. The guard monitors RSS usage, writes one restricted snapshot, detects existing snapshots, and reports capture errors.
Server diagnostics and shutdown integration
src/server.ts, src/server.test.ts, src/process-sessions.ts
The server starts and stops the optional guard. /healthz reports memory, session, workspace, and persistence metrics. Tests cover snapshot persistence, duplicate suppression, cleanup, and health output.
Workspace cache lifecycle
src/workspaces.ts, src/workspaces.test.ts
WorkspaceRegistry supports bounded caching, idle timeouts, injected clocks, access tracking, LRU eviction, restoration, statistics, and idle pruning.
Persistence cleanup and runtime maintenance
src/workspace-store.ts, src/workspace-conversation.test.ts, src/server.ts
WorkspaceStore reports counts and prunes stale conversation bindings. Runtime maintenance invokes workspace and binding cleanup with idle MCP-session cleanup.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk:🟡 Moderate · up to 1868c

The PR adds bounded workspace retention, runtime health metrics, and optional heap diagnostics, but the current implementation can disrupt long-lived MCP activity, leave resources or child processes active during shutdown, expose runtime counts without authentication, or trigger heap-capture/startup failures under specific configuration and filesystem conditions. Merge should wait for these bounded correctness, availability, and security risks to be fixed or explicitly accepted.

Greptile Summary

This PR bounds retained workspace state, restores evicted workspace IDs from SQLite, prunes stale conversation bindings, adds runtime statistics to health checks, and introduces an opt-in heap snapshot guard. Two continuity and startup failure paths remain:

  • Adds a 32-entry, one-hour-idle workspace cache with SQLite restoration.
  • Prunes conversation bindings older than 30 days while retaining workspace sessions.
  • Exposes process memory and session/cache counts through /healthz.
  • Adds a configurable one-shot heap snapshot diagnostic.

Confidence Score: 3/5

The workspace-restoration continuity failure and opt-in diagnostic startup crash should be fixed before merging.

Automatic eviction can invalidate reads under previously activated skill directories, while an unreadable or non-directory diagnostics path can terminate startup whenever heap snapshots are enabled.

Files Needing Attention: src/workspaces.ts and src/heap-snapshot-guard.ts

Important Files Changed

FilenameOverview
src/workspaces.tsAdds bounded LRU/idle eviction and transparent restoration, but restoration drops activated skill-directory state required by later reads.
src/workspace-store.tsAdds aggregate session statistics and age-based deletion of conversation bindings without deleting workspace sessions.
src/server.tsSchedules workspace maintenance, reports bounded runtime state, and starts the optional heap guard; startup inherits uncaught guard-construction failures.
src/heap-snapshot-guard.tsImplements a one-shot RSS-triggered heap snapshot, but an existing invalid diagnostics path can throw outside its error callback.
src/config.tsAdds validated opt-in configuration for the heap snapshot threshold.

P1Restoration loses activated skill state

When a workspace activates a skill directory and is later evicted by the idle or capacity limit, getWorkspace restores it with an empty activatedSkillDirs set, causing subsequent reads under that previously activated directory to be rejected as outside the workspace root.

P1Diagnostics inspection can abort startup

If heap snapshots are enabled and the existing diagnostics path is unreadable or is a file, readdirSync throws outside the guard's error-handling path, causing createServer to fail and the service to terminate during startup instead of logging the diagnostic failure.

Do not convert an empty opt-in setting into a one-byte threshold.

Line 248 treats "" as configured. parsePositiveInteger then returns its fallback value of 1. The server starts the guard and captures a snapshot at startup because RSS exceeds one byte.

Treat an empty value as disabled, or reject it. Add a regression test for DEVSPACE_HEAP_SNAPSHOT_THRESHOLD_BYTES: "".

Make shutdown cleanup exception-safe.

If transports.closeAll() or processSessions.shutdown() throws, execution skips heapSnapshotGuard?.stop(), oauthProvider.close(), and workspaceStore.close?.(). The new heap guard can remain active during failed shutdown, and the workspace store can remain open. Move resource cleanup into a finally block or a best-effort close helper that preserves the first error.

Model Context Protocol TypeScript SDK 1.29.0 StreamableHTTPServerTransport session activity request handling long-running exchange notifications

💡 Result:

In the Model Context Protocol (MCP) TypeScript SDK version 1.29.0, the StreamableHTTPServerTransport serves as a thin Node.js-compatible wrapper around the WebStandardStreamableHTTPServerTransport [1]. This transport is designed to handle MCP sessions via HTTP (for requests) and Server-Sent Events (SSE) (for notifications) [2][3]. Regarding the specific handling of session activity and notifications: 1. Session Activity Handling: The transport supports stateful and stateless modes, configured via the sessionIdGenerator option [3][4]. In stateful mode, it maintains in-memory state for connections and message history [4][5]. In stateless mode, it does not perform session validation [4]. 2. Long-Running Exchange Notifications: Streamable HTTP enables server-to-client notifications over SSE [2]. To handle long-running operations or polling behavior, the transport provides methods to close SSE streams, which forces clients to reconnect [5]. Specifically, closeSSEStream(requestId) can be used for request-scoped streams, while closeStandaloneSSEStream manages the standalone GET SSE stream for unsolicited notifications [5]. These methods trigger client reconnections, allowing for efficient polling and resource management during long-running exchanges [6][5]. 3. Known Issues in 1.29.0: Version 1.29.0 (along with the 1.25.x–1.28.x series) contains a known regression affecting stateless transport reuse [7]. When using a stateless configuration (sessionIdGenerator: undefined), subsequent requests after the initial initialize call may return an HTTP 500 error with an empty body because the transport's internal error handling is bypassed by the underlying Hono bridge [7]. For further implementation details, developers should refer to the Streamable HTTP documentation and examples provided in the SDK [2][8]. Note that version 1.29.0 is part of the v1 release line; the SDK has since moved to v2 [9][10].

Track activity during open MCP exchanges.

McpSessionRegistry.get() refreshes activity only when a /mcp request starts. It does not refresh activity while transport.handleRequest() is pending or while the standalone SSE stream is open. The maintenance pass can therefore close an active exchange or notification stream after 30 minutes. Track in-flight requests and SSE streams, and add regression tests.

In `@src/server.ts` at line 69, Update McpSessionRegistry activity tracking so
in-flight transport.handleRequest() operations and standalone SSE streams
refresh or preserve session activity until they complete or close, preventing
the maintenance pass from expiring active exchanges. Integrate this behavior
into the /mcp request and SSE lifecycle paths, and add regression tests covering
both pending requests and open notification streams.
