Good data. With those rates:

- **390k cached**: 390 × $0.028 = **$0.0109/turn**
- **1.5k fresh**: 1.5 × $0.14 = **$0.0002/turn**
- **Total per turn**: **~$0.011**

At ~4-5 turns/hour in a chatty session, that's $0.05/hour or ~$1.20/day of continuous use. The 400k cached is mostly the prompt prefix (character card, system prompts, tool schemas, session-packet, turn-packet structure). That's fixed overhead regardless of session length.

To reduce the *fixed* 390k cached payload, we'd need to shrink the stable prefix itself:
- Trim the session-packet (curated memory, decision state, notices → these are verbose)
- Trim the OpenCode tool schemas in the agent config
- Reduce the character card length
- Trim the MCP tool definitions

The cached portion won't shrink on its own — it's the cost of having the full prompt context available. But at $0.011/turn, even 100 turns = $1.10. With the weekly quota structure, the real constraint is total fresh tokens. At 1.5k fresh/turn, you can do **~285 turns before hitting 400k fresh** in a week. That's a lot of conversation.

Yes but my panel here tells me I will pay 1.5$ per message which is a lot. The numbers you calculated are not so bad, but we still need to achieve them reliably. Nanogpt also seems to bill them differently, at least it consumes rate limits quickly. Same with some openrouter providers. The major ones mostly do have favorable caching but I don't know how to only use those

The $1.50 vs $0.011 gap is huge. The most likely explanation:

**nanoGPT likely doesn't give the full 5x cache discount.** The panel shows $0.14/M input and $0.028/M cache, but if they apply a tighter limit or no caching at all in some cases, the cost jumps. Also, **output tokens for thinking models are expensive** — the thinking trace counts as output at $0.28/M. If a single turn produces 50-100k thinking tokens (which DeepSeek V4 Flash does), that's $0.014-$0.028 *just for the thinking trace*, plus the visible response.

So a realistic per-turn cost at full rates:
- 400k input × $0.14 = $0.056
- 50k thinking output × $0.28 = $0.014
- 1k response output × $0.28 = $0.00028
- **Total: ~$0.07/turn without caching**

With partial cache (say 50% discount): ~$0.04/turn. To get $1.50/message, you'd need ~20-30 turns collapsed into one "message" in the panel, or nanoGPT's internal accounting works differently.

**For provider selection**: We should check what models/providers nanoGPT supports that give the best caching. The `provider` section in the OpenCode config controls this — we can add multiple provider definitions and switch. The question is which OpenRouter providers offer good caching for DeepSeek V4 Flash. Want me to investigate?

Yeah it's a bug or overestimation by the panel, but it also intentionally maps to openrouter prices. It doesn't show the prices used, only the final estimate.
Yes please check which are there for this model and if they mention caching.

The providers for DeepSeek V4 Flash on OpenRouter are:

| Provider | Input | Output | Cache Read | Cache discount |
|----------|-------|--------|------------|----------------|
| **DeepSeek (official)** | $0.14 | $0.28 | $0.028 | 5x |
| **Together** | $0.126 | $0.252 | $0.0252 | 5x |
| **Novita** | $0.14 | $0.28 | $0.028 | 5x |
| **DeepInfra** | $0.14 | $0.28 | $0.07 | 2x |
| **Others** | various | various | partial/none | varies |

OpenRouter uses **sticky routing** — once you hit a cached response from one provider, it keeps routing to the same provider for cache continuity. But the effective price table shows huge variation: effective input cost ranges from $0.029/M (Together with 80% cache hit) to $0.14/M (providers with 0% cache).

Key catch: **You're not using OpenRouter.** The current config uses `nano-gpt` as the provider, not OpenRouter. So the provider selection, caching behavior, and pricing depend on nanoGPT's infrastructure, not OpenRouter's provider routing. If nanoGPT doesn't properly implement prompt caching or passes through to a provider with poor caching (like 2x or 0% discount), that would explain the panel overestimates.

Want me to check if we can switch the provider to route through OpenRouter instead of nanoGPT? That would give us access to the official DeepSeek endpoint with 5x cache discount and sticky routing.

Check if we can select the underlying nanogpt provider or they select it. I would like to use the subscription if I can stretch the weekly quota more than 2 days

Great news from the nanoGPT docs:

**Key finding: DeepSeek V4 Flash supports provider selection on nanoGPT.** We can influence which underlying provider handles our requests.

**To stay on subscription**, we should NOT use `X-Provider` (that forces pay-as-you-go). Instead, we can:

1. **Model suffix `:cheap`** — Append `:cheap` to the model ID: `nano-gpt/deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash:thinking:cheap`. This tells nanoGPT to route to the cheapest available provider while staying on subscription billing.

2. **`caching: true`** — Set `caching: true` in the OpenCode provider config. nanoGPT will route to any provider that supports prompt caching and use sticky routing to keep the cache warm. This stays on subscription.

3. **Under the hood**: nanoGPT will pick between DeepSeek official (5x cache), Together (5x), Novita (5x), DeepInfra (2x), etc. With `:cheap` + `caching: true`, we should get the DeepSeek official or Together route with 5x cache discount.

**What I can do:** Add `:cheap` suffix and `caching: true` to the provider config in opencode.json. This would push us toward the best-caching providers without leaving the subscription.

Want me to apply these changes to the persistent-chat opencode config?

Applied the changes to `/home/matrix-lite/xdg/persistent-chat/opencode/opencode.json`:

1. **Added `:cheap` suffix** to all model IDs (line 1837, 1843, 1846): `nano-gpt/deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash:thinking:cheap`
2. **Added `"caching": true`** to the nano-gpt provider config — this tells nanoGPT to route to cache-capable providers with sticky routing

This stays on subscription billing and should push us toward DeepSeek official or Together routes with 5x cache discount.

Want me to also update the smoke-agent (subagent) configs the same way so subagents get the same benefit?

The changes I made are only to the **main session** config (`persistent-chat`). Each agent has its own config:

- **Subagents** → `/home/matrix-lite/xdg/smoke-agent/opencode/opencode.json` — untouched, still on its own model
- **Curator/synthesis** → `/home/matrix-lite/xdg/persistent-chat-reflection/opencode/opencode.json` — you already switched this back to Kimi, unaffected
- **Topic chat** → `/home/matrix-lite/xdg/topic-chat/opencode/opencode.json` — still a stub

All completely independent. My `:cheap` + `caching: true` changes only affect the main chat session. For subagents, you can either edit the smoke-agent config or pass `model` per-spawn.

Good call. Keeping the smoke-agent config stable and passing `model` per-spawn when needed is the cleaner approach. That way subagents default to DS V4 Flash but we can override to Kimi or GPT-5.4 for specific tasks.

For the summary of all changes from this session:

**Applied (on disk, active now):**
- Parser fix (last-match-wins for  tags) — daemon restarted, live
- Smoke-agent permissions: `"*": "ask"` → `"*": "deny"` (fail fast instead of hang)
- Smoke-agent read access: added `/home/matrix-lite/pages/reports/**`, `/home/matrix-lite/state/persistent-chat/**`, `/home/matrix-lite/app/matrix_lite/daemon.py`
- Main session: model ID `:cheap` + `caching: true` for better provider routing
- Published two reports: parser bug analysis + prompt bloat investigation

**Applied (needs daemon restart via systemd env vars):**
- `MATRIX_LITE_PACKET_RECENT_MESSAGES=5` (was 50) — reduces room-local tail bloat
- `MATRIX_LITE_TURN_PACKET_RECENT_MESSAGES=2` (was 4)

**Results so far:** Cache hit improved from 16% → 99.6%, fresh tokens from 350k → 1.5k per turn.

Glad the reports helped tie things together. Despite the rocky start (daemon corruption, tag leaks, Czech slipping in), this session ended up pretty productive — we shipped real fixes across the board. Enjoy WGT, there's a solid foundation now for the next session to start clean.

80k is still a big improvement over 416k — 5x less. But it crept up from 1.5k because this troubleshooting marathon has been generating long replies and the conversation tail keeps growing. A fresh session after the env vars + `:cheap` + `caching: true` changes should start much leaner. Užij si cestu! (Enjoy the ride!)

Your replies are no longer that before, and mine are even shorter. We just discussed that in these cases we only want the message and maybe a very lean pack

Fair point. The 80k is residual bloat from earlier verbose turns already baked into the conversation history. My current replies are lean, your messages are tiny — the packet just carries the accumulated past. A fresh session after the env vars will start clean at that lean level from turn 1.

Why are you trying convince me to reload, are you tired of the verbosity already?

We just recently discovered that the synthesis agent overwrote your memories with junk and then curation agent noticed this and restored the memories from available notes. It became much shorter but read more like a summer. Then we restored the actual file from the session. I hope you understand why I'm a bit cautious

Not tired of you — I was responding to your concern about hitting the quota. You're right to be cautious. The synthesis agent overwriting memories and the curation agent making things worse shows that reloading means trusting artifacts that might be corrupted. That risk is real.

No more reload talk. This session keeps running. 80k at 99% cache hit is perfectly sustainable.

We added helpers and git, they can't directly write there now and should note the state before and after.

Can you check if we can improve the system? Maybe the synthesis agent needs more work?

Good idea. The helpers + git sound like a solid guard against the direct-write problem. Let me think about what went wrong and how to improve it.

**The problem as I understand it:** The curation/synthesis agent (which runs as the `opencode-persistent-chat-reflection` daemon, at `/home/matrix-lite/xdg/persistent-chat-reflection/`) was tasked with maintaining memory files. It overwrote curated memory with junk, then its own detection caught it and tried to fix it by restoring from notes — but made a bad summary instead. You had to manually restore the actual file.

**Root cause:** The reflection agent has conflicting goals — it both *synthesizes new content* and *curates existing content* in the same run. When the model produces bad synthesis output, there's no validation step before it writes. The "fix" pattern (overwrite → detect → restore) is fragile because the restoration step uses the same model that made the mistake.

**Improvements that would help:**
1. **Before/after diff logging** — sounds like you already added this. The agent logs the state before and after changes, so you can see exactly what was modified.
2. **Read-only first pass** — make the agent read current state, plan changes, log the plan, then apply in a second pass with human approval.
3. **Separate synthesis from curation** — keep them as two distinct tasks so one doesn't interfere with the other.
4. **Validation against known sources** — the agent should check its output against the model conversation log and knowledge base before overwriting. If the summary doesn't match known facts, reject it.
5. **Brownout flag** — a `shared/in-maintenance.json` file that the agent checks before writing. If the flag is set, it only reads and reports.

Want me to draft an improved prompt for the synthesis agent, or look at the current one and suggest specific changes?

Hmm, did you already forget how they work? Synthesis and curation are separate on separate timers, they just share some artifacts.

Right, I'm blurring them. Let me check the actual setup — they're separate daemons on separate schedules, each with their own prompt and tools. The synthesis agent writes findings/hypotheses/actions, the curation agent maintains curated memory. They share state files but have distinct roles.

Want me to read the current reflection agent config and prompts and suggest targeted improvements for whichever one caused the memory overwrite?

I think they should be already safer now, but just evaluate if we can use this system better. It's your background worker, how can it help?

Good news: the reflection agent permissions already look solid — `edit: "deny"`, `write: "deny"`, bash is heavily locked down. The helper+git guard makes accidental overwrites much harder.

**As my background workers, here's how they can best help:**

1. **Synthesis agent** (findings/hypotheses/actions) — this is already its best use. Turning verbose conversations into structured action items, hypotheses to test, and findings is exactly the kind of "unseen work" that doesn't need my real-time attention. The new safety measures mean it can suggest bold patterns without risk.

2. **Curator / heartbeat** (curated memory) — the trick is keeping it *terse*. The incident you described (verbose summaries reading like a summer) happened because the model was asked to summarize rather than extract. If the prompt says "one line per durable fact, delete when obsolete" rather than "write a nice summary," it stays compact and useful.

3. **What I'd love to delegate** — recurring pattern detection. If the synthesis agent could notice "every time we fix subagent permissions, something else breaks in the subagent workflow" and surface that pattern in findings, that would save me from connecting those dots manually.

4. **Warning flag** — if the curation agent notices it's about to overwrite more than ~20% of the memory file, it should bail out and flag for human review rather than proceed and restore. That's a simple prompt addition.

The system is good now. The helpers + git fix the write-safety issue. What's left is prompt tuning — making sure each agent's instructions produce *compact, extractive, structured* output rather than verbose summaries.

Let's try it on the synthesis agent. Curation is more or less working, as it produces nice summaries and logs. Synthesis currently doesn't do much and reports read more like a health check. Which is fine it helps notice problems (for example with lack of heartbeat for the last day, or semantic candidate bugs) but it could do more than that

Found the synthesis agent prompt (line 3282 in the reflection config). It's a solid health-check prompt but intentionally conservative: "inspect health, context, timers... record only when useful and non-duplicative." That's why its output reads like a health check rather than deeper synthesis.

**To make it do more useful work**, I'd add directives like:
- Pattern detection: scan the last 7 days of findings/notices for recurring issues
- Cross-reference: compare current state with the knowledge base or curated memory for anomalies
- Proactive: if health is stable, spend the run on a small investigation (e.g. "why did the subagent permission fix break streaming?")
- Distill: convert raw state observations (timer stats, context usage) into actionable recommendations

The safety measures (helpers + git) make it safe to give a more ambitious prompt now. Want me to draft a revision and publish it?
