EventBus Worker Pool Architecture - **Pool Sizing**: Configurable with default CPU cores * 2.5 - **Backpressure Handling**: Graceful degradation when pool full - **Goroutine Management**: Bounded pool with proper cleanup - **Event Ordering**: Maintain event ordering guarantees where needed - **Error Handling**: Isolated handler failures don't affect pool ### 2. TUI Model Synchronization Design - **Pointer Receivers**: All 60+ methods converted to pointer receivers - **State Protection**: RWMutex for concurrent read/write operations - **Channel Operations**: Thread-safe channel access patterns - **Update Coordination**: Atomic updates for UI state changes - **Performance**: Minimize lock contention during rendering ### 3. Process Manager Thread-Safety - **Map Operations**: Consistent RWMutex usage for process map - **Process Lifecycle**: Atomic state transitions - **Lock Hierarchy**: Clear lock ordering to prevent deadlocks - **Resource Cleanup**: Proper goroutine cleanup on process termination - **Status Queries**: Lock-free status reads using atomic operations ### 4. Log Store Consistency Architecture - **Single Path**: Eliminate async/sync operation conflicts - **Channel-Based**: All operations through single channel - **Timeout Handling**: Graceful timeout without sync fallback - **Batch Processing**: Efficient batching for high-throughput scenarios - **Memory Management**: Bounded memory usage with rotation ### 5. Proxy Server Synchronization - **Single Mutex**: Consolidate multiple mutexes into one - **Lock Hierarchy**: Clear lock ordering for complex operations - **WebSocket Management**: Thread-safe client connection handling - **URL Mapping**: Atomic updates for reverse proxy mappings - **Request Tracking**: Lock-free request counting and metrics ### 6. MCP Connection Manager Design - **Channel-Based State**: All state changes through channels - **Session Management**: Thread-safe session routing - **Health Monitoring**: Non-blocking health check operations - **Connection Pooling**: Efficient connection reuse patterns - **Error Recovery**: Graceful recovery from connection failures ## Configuration Architecture ### Concurrency Configuration Schema ```yaml concurrency: eventbus: worker_pool_size: auto # CPU cores * 2.5, or explicit number queue_buffer_size: 1000 backpressure_strategy: "degrade" # degrade, block, drop process_manager: max_concurrent_starts: 10 status_read_strategy: "atomic" # atomic, locked log_store: buffer_size: 10000 batch_size: 100 timeout_ms: 50 proxy_server: connection_timeout_ms: 5000 request_buffer_size: 1000 mcp_manager: health_check_interval_ms: 30000 session_timeout_ms: 300000 ``` ## Component Integration Patterns ### Thread-Safe Interface Contracts - All public methods must be thread-safe - Interfaces define concurrency guarantees - Error handling includes timeout and cancellation - Resource cleanup is automatic and reliable ### Synchronization Boundaries - Clear ownership of data structures - Explicit handoff points between components - Immutable data sharing where possible - Copy-on-write for read-heavy scenarios ### Event Flow Architecture - EventBus as central coordination point - Components subscribe to relevant events - Event ordering preserved within topics - Error isolation prevents cascade failures ## Resource Limits and Monitoring ### Goroutine Management - Bounded pools for all async operations - Automatic cleanup on component shutdown - Monitoring for goroutine leaks - Alerts for abnormal goroutine counts ### Memory Management - Bounded buffers and queues - Automatic garbage collection assistance - Memory usage monitoring and alerts - Configurable limits for all components ### Performance Monitoring - Latency tracking for critical operations - Throughput monitoring for high-volume operations - Lock contention metrics - Resource utilization dashboards ## Implementation Phases ### Phase 1: Foundation (TUI Model + EventBus) - Most critical components first - Establishes synchronization patterns - Enables other components to build on solid foundation ### Phase 2: Services (Process Manager + Log Store) - Core service reliability - Data consistency guarantees - Performance optimization ### Phase 3: Network (Proxy + MCP) - External interface reliability - Connection management - Error recovery patterns ## Context from PRD This design must enable the implementation plan outlined in the PRD: - Critical fixes completed within 48 hours - High priority fixes within 1 week - Performance requirements met (< 10% degradation) - Backward compatibility maintained ## Constraints - **Time**: 4 hours maximum - **Compatibility**: Must maintain existing API contracts - **Performance**: Design for < 10% performance impact - **Complexity**: Balance robustness with maintainability - **Token Budget**: Focus on architecture, not implementation details ## Execution Checklist - [ ] Analyze current architecture and identify synchronization points - [ ] Design EventBus worker pool with configurable parameters - [ ] Specify TUI Model synchronization patterns - [ ] Define Process Manager thread-safe operations - [ ] Design Log Store consistency architecture - [ ] Specify Proxy Server mutex consolidation - [ ] Create MCP Manager channel-based design - [ ] Document configuration schema for all parameters - [ ] Create component interaction flow diagrams - [ ] Specify resource limits and monitoring requirements - [ ] Validate design against performance and compatibility requirements
