SSE Architecture: Two Separate Connections
Kontasks page and Dashboard console use completely separate SSE connections
Output
🔌 Two Separate SSE Connections
Yes, they are completely independent streams with different purposes.
Architecture
Kontasks Page ──► /api/stream/tasks (broadcasts kontask create/update/delete events) Uses: EventSource with auto-reconnect Dashboard Console ──► /api/konsole/dashboard/stream (POST) (Claude tool calls, assistant text, todos) Uses: fetch + ReadableStream ──► /api/konsole/dashboard/events (GET) (reconnection with buffered events) Uses: EventSource for recovery only
The Issue You're Seeing
Your observation suggests the dashboard console stream may have a problem with my EventSource changes, while the kontasks stream (which I didn't modify) works fine.
Symptoms:
- ✓ Todo progress cards working (routed via kontasks stream)
- ✓ Kontasks reconnection working (kontasks page SSE)
- ✗ Assistant text not appearing (dashboard console stream)
- ✗ Dashboard console reconnection broken
Wait - Todo Progress Works?
If todo progress is working now, that's the dashboard console stream (TodoWrite events come through /api/konsole/dashboard/stream). So the stream IS working for tool calls...
The issue might be specific to assistant text or EventSource reconnection rather than the whole stream.
What's Next?
Can you clarify: when you say "reconnects and assistant text etc isn't" - do you mean after a disconnect/reconnect, or during normal streaming? This helps narrow down if the bug is in the initial POST stream or the EventSource reconnection path.
