🤖 Track usage in stream abort events (#110)
## Overview Capture token usage and duration when streams are interrupted. The AI SDK provides usage data even when streams are aborted, so we should track it for accurate cost accounting. ## Changes ### Backend Changes - **StreamAbortEvent type**: Added optional `metadata` with `usage` and `duration` fields - **streamManager.ts**: - Extracted `getStreamMetadata()` helper to eliminate duplication - Used in both `cancelStreamSafely()` (abort case) and stream completion - Single source of truth for usage/duration extraction - **StreamingMessageAggregator**: Store usage from abort events using spread operator (consistent with stream-end handling) ### Testing - Added integration test: "should include usage data in stream-abort events" - Verifies abort events contain usage metadata with token counts - Tests both OpenAI and Anthropic providers ## Why This Matters - **Accurate cost tracking**: Even interrupted work consumes tokens and costs money - **Budget transparency**: Users can see what they paid for, even for partial results - **DRY code**: Single helper method eliminates duplication between abort and completion paths ## No UI Changes This PR focuses solely on backend tracking. Usage data is now available in abort events for future UI consumption. _Generated with `cmux`_
