perf(opencode): bound usage reads to in-window messages#33612
Problem
OpenCode usage reads scanned message rows by rowid and loaded full message bodies into JavaScript. Large user messages and old history made cold reads slow and memory intensive, even when only a small time window was needed.
Change
Use time_created to select candidate rowids, then read them in bounded pages within a SQLite transaction. SQLite filters assistant messages and projects only usage fields before returning rows. This keeps scans proportional to the selected window and avoids transferring message bodies that usage parsing does not need.
Scope and approval
This qualifies for the very small, focused obvious-bug exception in CONTRIBUTING.md. The defect is that a 64-row page materializes arbitrarily large message bodies, even though usage needs only a few fields. The resulting server OOM is documented in #27667. The implementation changes only this reader's query strategy and adds regression coverage. It preserves usage totals, schemas, product defaults, and stored history; there is no new feature or workflow.
This also incorporates SQL projection from Julius Marminge's #27679, plus window selection by Tymoteusz Bielski and snapshot handling by maria-rcks from #26613. Their co-author credit is recorded in the implementation commit and will be preserved when squashing.
Verification
Added focused tests for bounded result sizes, sparse and unordered rowids, concurrent writes, and both OpenCode database formats, including malformed and optional fields. On a real 3.32 GB database snapshot, five fresh-process runs showed a 2.33× speedup for a 30-day window and a 2.82× speedup for a 90-day window. Both versions returned identical records. The 90-day scan transferred 39.9 MB of message data instead of 2.51 GB. These measurements used cold application caches; the operating system disk cache was not cleared.

Walkthrough
-
The OpenCode usage reader now lists eligible message row IDs and fetches usage fields in pages of 64. It filters invalid JSON and non-assistant records in SQLite, runs reads in transactions, and attaches scan counts to the Effect span. Tests cover large and sparse histories, concurrent updates, and record filtering.
Changes: OpenCode usage scanning
Layer / File(s) Summary Paged usage reads
packages/provider-opencode/src/server/usage.tsThe reader lists row IDs that match the time-window and assistant-type predicates, then fetches valid usage JSON in pages of 64. It runs each database read in a transaction and attaches the listed-row and page counts to the Effect span. Scan behavior tests
packages/provider-opencode/src/server/usage.test.tsTests cover large payloads, a WAL update during scanning, bounded reads for sparse row IDs, filtering in both table formats, and cost and fallback values. Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Note
Generated by GPT 6.1 Sol
Updated the Scope and approval section to explain the focused obvious-bug exception and link the documented OOM in #27667. The change only replaces the existing reader's query strategy and adds regression coverage; usage totals, product defaults, schemas, and stored history are preserved. The implementation commit credits the contributors whose work it adapts.
CodeRabbit reported no code findings, and Macroscope carried its approval forward to the latest head because the upstream merge introduced no changes to this patch.
