Removes ~600 lines of unreferenced code surfaced by deadcode + manual
audit (none of it reachable from production code paths or test setup):
- internal/models/pool.go: ProviderPool was never wired into kitsetup
or the agent; the global pool singleton had zero callers.
- internal/ui/debug_logger.go: CLIDebugLogger was unreachable; debug
routing goes through internal/tools/buffered_logger.go instead.
- internal/ui/tool_approval_input.go: tea.Model never instantiated;
approvals are handled inline in model.go.
- internal/ui/cli.go: DisplayAssistantMessage / DisplayCancellation /
GetDebugLogger had zero callers (the *WithModel variant is what
event_handler.go uses).
- internal/ui/style/enhanced.go: Style{Card,Header,Subheader,Muted,
Success,Error,Warning,Info} + Create{Separator,ProgressBar} — none
used. CreateBadge stays (used by model.go).
- internal/ui/style/themes.go: RefreshThemeRegistry — never called.
- internal/ui/block_renderer.go: With{FullWidth,MarginTop,Padding{Left,
Right},Background,Foreground,Width} — option helpers nobody calls.
- internal/ui/render/blocks.go: UserBlock, ToolBlock — replaced by
inline rendering elsewhere; the test for UserBlock was rewritten to
directly exercise HighlightFileTokens (which is what the test really
cared about).
- internal/ui/commands/commands.go: GetAllCommandNames — no callers.
- internal/ui/message_items.go: NewTextMessageItem,
NewSystemMessageItem + the entire SystemMessageItem type — model.go
uses NewStyledMessageItem instead.
- internal/prompts/loader.go: Deduplicate — the loader does dedup
internally; standalone helper was unused.
- internal/models/cache_options.go: mergeProviderOptions + its
test-only consumer.
- internal/extensions/installer.go: Installer.GetInstalledPackages —
intended for a 'kit ext list' command that was never built.
- internal/extensions/manifest.go: saveManifestToScope,
saveManifestToPath, GetGlobalManifest, GetProjectManifest,
addEntryToManifest, removeEntryFromManifest — package-level
duplicates of *Installer methods. Tests rewritten to exercise the
live Installer methods instead, which fixes a latent path-resolution
inconsistency between manifestPathForScope and Installer.manifestPath
(the former hard-coded paths, the latter respects projectGitRoot).
- internal/extensions/subagent.go: SpawnSubagent + helpers
(generateSubagentID, findKitBinary, subagentJSONOutput). The
subprocess-spawn implementation is unreachable; production code
routes through kit.Kit.Subagent (in-process). Types
(SubagentConfig/Result/Handle/etc.) and the SubagentHandle methods
remain because they are exposed to extensions via Yaegi symbols and
the Context.SpawnSubagent field.
- cmd/root.go: LoadConfigWithEnvSubstitution — one-line wrapper around
kit.LoadConfigWithEnvSubstitution with zero callers.
go test -race ./... passes.
- Upgrade golangci-lint to v2.11.4
- Fix errcheck warnings for os.Setenv/os.Unsetenv in tests
- Use maps.Copy instead of manual loop (modernize lint)
- Add maps import for maps.Copy
Remove internal monologue comments that don't add value for readers:
- Remove lengthy explanations of type conflicts that are now resolved
- Remove 'NOTE:' and 'TODO:' comments documenting implementation history
- Remove obvious test comments that just restate what the code does
- Keep only meaningful comments that explain design intent
The code is now cleaner and easier to read without the self-referential
commentary that was useful during development but not for maintenance.
Implements automatic prompt caching to reduce API costs by 60-90% for
repeated prompts with the same context.
Architecture:
- Provider-level caching for OpenAI (PromptCacheKey)
- Message-level caching for Anthropic (avoids type conflicts)
- Model family detection enables caching regardless of provider
Key Changes:
- Add ModelInfo.Family with SupportsCaching() and CacheType() methods
- Add ProviderConfig.DisableCaching for opt-out
- Implement message-level cache control in agent (like Crush)
- Last system message gets cache control
- Last 2 messages get cache control
- Last tool gets cache control
- Auto-disable caching when thinking is enabled (type conflict avoidance)
- Add KIT_DISABLE_CACHE environment variable for global opt-out
Tested with opencode/claude-sonnet-4-6 showing cacheRead/cacheWrite
tokens in debug output, confirming 60-90% cost savings.
Closes cost optimization for multi-turn conversations.
