# BTerminal v2 — Progress Log

## Session: 2026-03-05

### Research Phase (complete)
- [x] Analyzed current BTerminal v1 codebase (2092 lines Python, GTK3+VTE)
- [x] Queried Memora — no existing BTerminal memories
- [x] Researched Claude Agent SDK — found structured streaming, subagent tracking, hooks
- [x] Researched Tauri + xterm.js ecosystem — found 4+ working projects
- [x] Researched terminal latency benchmarks — xterm.js acceptable for AI output
- [x] Researched 32:9 ultrawide layout patterns
- [x] Evaluated GTK4 vs Tauri vs pure Rust — Tauri wins for this use case
- [x] Created task_plan.md with 8 phases
- [x] Created findings.md with 7 research areas

### Technology Decision (complete)
- Decision: **Tauri 2.x + Solid.js + Claude Agent SDK + xterm.js**
- Rationale documented in task_plan.md Phase 0

### Adversarial Review (complete)
- [x] Spawned devil's advocate agent to attack the plan
- [x] Identified 5 fatal/critical issues:
  1. Node.js sidecar requirement unacknowledged
  2. SDK 0.2.x instability — need abstraction layer
  3. Three-tier observation overengineered → simplified to two-tier
  4. Solid.js ecosystem too small → switched to Svelte 5
  5. Missing: packaging, error handling, testing, responsive design
- [x] Revised plan (Rev 2) incorporating all corrections
- [x] Added error handling strategy table
- [x] Added testing strategy table
- [x] Defined MVP boundary (Phases 1-4)
- [x] Added responsive layout requirement (1920px degraded mode)

### Next Steps
- [ ] Present plan to user for review and decision
- [ ] Create feature branch
- [ ] Begin Phase 1: Project scaffolding
