- applicability: isPxpipeSupportedModel reads PXPIPE_MODELS (comma-sep,
default claude-fable-5 only) and strips bracket/variant tags like [1m];
Opus becomes opt-in with no code change. Default behavior unchanged.
- FINDINGS: Opus 4.8 re-test - arithmetic 98/100 (-2pp), verbatim 6/15
(was 93/100, 0/15): improved but still taxed -> default stays Fable-only.
- FINDINGS + eval/glyph-matrix/sweep: root cause of the read tax is per-glyph
RESOLUTION, not font shape (confusions scale with px and vanish by 10x16).
Opus needs ~4x glyph area to read reliably; the 1568px ceiling makes that
break-even, so there is no profitable Opus operating point.
New docs/CACHING_AND_SAVINGS.md explains the two things that keep coming up:
1. How pxpipe stays aligned with Anthropic's prompt cache when it images the
static prefix: split static/dynamic blocks first (keep drifting <env> etc.
as cheap text, never imaged), then relocate (never add) the caller's
cache_control onto the last image so the breakpoint anchors at the end of
the stable slab. Covers the cache-friendly splice, the symmetric
anti-flapping burn term, and the horizon-amortized history-collapse gate.
2. How savings are measured without double-counting the cache discount: both
the real request and a count_tokens counterfactual of the original body are
priced with identical cache rates at the same moment, so the discount
cancels in the difference and only the token reduction survives.
Also reconcile the priorWarmTokens JSDoc in transform.ts: the burn term is
applied undivided, matching all three gate call sites and the symmetric
priorWarmImageTokens doc. The '/ N' was stale (the per-turn gate has no
horizon to divide by; the horizon scales the lifetime cost, not the burn).
- generate.mjs builds one large context (filler logs + small state-tracking needle)
- README: two-column run (plain vs pxpipe), same prompt, compare answers + /context
- drop the e-commerce /context demo; context/ is generated, gitignored
- FINDINGS.md: dated 2026-06-12 entry logging in-the-wild verbatim
misreads (7/10 exact, ~3.3% per-char, 2/3 silent) alongside flawless
gist-tier recall in the same session. Explicitly anecdotal, n=1,
non-reproducible — motivation only.
- eval/glyph-matrix/PLAN.md: public plan for the paused confusion-matrix
experiment (Task #7) so the pending work is visible outside README,
per the measured-numbers-only README rule.
- ON 47823 / OFF 47824 with own PXPIPE_LOG files: operator session can
never pollute bench measurement (separation by construction)
- resume = skip existing patch files; clean stop on quota errors
- Docker grading documented as proxy-free (no model calls in containers)
- README: mention Pro pilot alongside Lite
- src/dashboard/fragments.ts: server-side HTML fragment renderers reusing the
same JSON payloads (HTML and JSON surfaces can't drift)
- node.ts/dashboard.ts: /fragments/<name> routes (header, session-summary,
recent, latest, sessions, stats, toggle) with htmx polling + Alpine for
local state; toggle is a POST-returning-fragment htmx swap
- vendored htmx 2.0.4 + Alpine 3.14.9 in src/dashboard/vendor.ts (offline,
single-file npm package, no CDN)
- deleted Svelte components/stores/bundle build step; dropped svelte/vite
devDeps; build is now just tsc + esbuild
- tests: +5 fragment contract tests (routing, toggle state, HTML escaping of
source text, 404) - 339 total
- PXPIPE_PROVIDER=cloudflare-ai-gateway + PXPIPE_GATEWAY_BASE_URL derive both
family routes ({base}/anthropic, {base}/openai) from one configurable base
- PXPIPE_GATEWAY_HEADERS injects auth headers (JSON or k=v;k2=v2) on every
upstream request incl. count_tokens probes
- OpenAI paths drop /v1 to match gateway shape; Anthropic paths unchanged;
unknown paths pass through on the family route; streaming untouched
- no hardcoded hostnames; tests use fake gateway URLs/tokens (14 new)
- ImageEntry carries sourceText (capped 64KiB upstream in transform.ts)
- new GET /api/image-source[?id=N] endpoint
- LatestPng gains a 'view source text' toggle so the operator can see
the exact text -> image conversion side by side
