Output
WebSocket Implementation Status
✓ IMPLEMENTATION COMPLETE
The WebSocket migration from SSE is production-ready with one minor gap.
Component Status
| Browser WebSocket Client | ✓ Complete | console-websocket-client.ts |
| Konui WebSocket Server | ✓ Complete | console-websocket.ts |
| Router Integration | ✓ Complete | router.ts:3068-3115 |
| SSE Code Removal | ✓ Complete | Only valid refs remain |
| Stop Turn Functionality | ⚠ Partial | UI works, backend TODO |
| Error Recovery | ✓ Complete | Heartbeat, reconnection |
Architecture
Browser ──WebSocket──▶ Konui ──SSE──▶ Konsole ──stdio──▶ Claude /api/console/ws /sessions/*/prompt
SSE between Konui→Konsole is intentionally preserved (internal server communication)
Key Features Implemented
- ● Persistent WebSocket connection (stays alive between turns)
- ● Connection lock prevents duplicate connections
- ● Exponential backoff reconnection (1s→30s max, 20 attempts)
- ● 30s heartbeat with 90s stale client detection
- ● Async kontask delivery notifications
- ● Token auth via query param (wss:// supported)
⚠ One Incomplete Item
Stop Turn: console-websocket.ts:278
The Stop button sends a message but the server has a TODO to actually call konsole's stop endpoint. Impact: Medium - Claude continues running until turn naturally completes.
