openchamber/packages/web/server/lib/session-goal/runtime.js

// Session goal: a persisted, self-continuing objective attached to a session
// (metadata.openchamber.goal). While the goal is active, the server keeps the
// session working toward it: after each busy→idle transition it accounts token
// usage, asks the small model to audit progress (continue / complete /
// blocked), and either re-prompts the session's own model with a continuation
// prompt or settles the goal. Fully backend-driven — the UI can disconnect and
// the loop keeps running.
//
// The small-model audit is the sole termination authority besides the hard
// stops (turn error, token budget, auto-continuation cap) — the working agent
// has no channel to settle its own goal. When the small model is unavailable
// the loop still terminates via the budget and the continuation cap.
//
// Purely event-driven like session-assist: no polling, no backfill, no session
// scans. Only sessions that emit events while the server runs ever tick.
