[FIX] Wire up HTTP polling fallback for brain TUI status (fixes 'connecting…' forever) #170

@four-bytes-robby

Description

@four-bytes-robby

Problem

Brain TUI sidebar shows "connecting…" forever. The useServiceBus subscription never receives status messages because:

  1. Go bus (four-local-bus) is not running (bootstrapped, not yet implemented)
  2. MemoryBus fallback is in-process only (server and TUI have separate JS module scopes due to Bun.build() bundling)
  3. HTTP polling fallback in useServiceBus is never activated because no pollEndpoint option is passed

Root Cause

tui.tsx calls useServiceBus() without the 5th opts argument containing pollEndpoint. The brain server already runs a Bun.serve HTTP status server on a random port (see status.ts:startStatusServer()), and writes the port to ~/.cache/opencode/brain/status-port-{sha256hash}.json. The plugin-lib's useServiceBus already supports HTTP polling via pollEndpoint — it just needs to be wired up.

Fix

In tui.tsx:

  1. Discover the status port from ~/.cache/opencode/brain/status-port-{hash}.json (same hash derivation as server: createHash("sha256").update(directory).digest("hex").slice(0, 12))
  2. Pass { pollEndpoint: "http://127.0.0.1:{port}" } as the 5th argument to useServiceBus

Affected files

  • src/tui.tsx — add port discovery + pollEndpoint option
