🤖 Fix 7s startup delay by splitting tokenizer from renderer (#166)
## Problem The recent switch to `ai-tokenizer` (commit 437127e) introduced a **7-8s startup delay** in the renderer process due to eager loading of ~2MB tokenizer encoding files. ### Root Cause **Import chain pulling encodings into renderer:** ``` App.tsx → AIView → ChatMetaSidebar → CostsTab.tsx → sumUsageHistory from tokenStatsCalculator.ts → tokenizer.ts (top-level imports) → o200k_base encoding (~1MB) → claude encoding (~1MB) ``` Even though `CostsTab.tsx` doesn't use tokenization, it imports `sumUsageHistory()` from `tokenStatsCalculator.ts`, which has top-level tokenizer imports that eagerly load encoding data. ## Solution Split usage aggregation logic into a new `usageAggregator.ts` module with **zero tokenizer dependencies**. ### Changes 1. **Created** `src/utils/tokens/usageAggregator.ts` - Contains `ChatUsageComponent`, `ChatUsageDisplay` types - Contains `sumUsageHistory()` function - Pure aggregation logic, no tokenization 2. **Updated** `src/utils/tokens/tokenStatsCalculator.ts` - Removed types/function (moved to usageAggregator) - Added re-exports for backward compatibility - Still imports tokenizer for `calculateTokenStats()` 3. **Updated** `src/components/ChatMetaSidebar/CostsTab.tsx` - Changed import: `tokenStatsCalculator` → `usageAggregator` - Now avoids pulling tokenizer into renderer 4. **Updated** `src/types/chatStats.ts` - Changed import: `tokenStatsCalculator` → `usageAggregator` ## Impact | Metric | Before | After | |--------|--------|-------| | Renderer startup | 7-8s | <1s | | Renderer bundle | includes encodings | no encodings | | Functionality | ✓ | ✓ (unchanged) | ## Architecture **Before:** ``` Renderer → tokenStatsCalculator → tokenizer → encodings (2MB+) ❌ ``` **After:** ``` Renderer → usageAggregator (lightweight) ✓ Main Process → tokenStatsCalculator → tokenizer → encodings ✓ ``` Tokenizer now stays in **main process** where it belongs, used by: - `aiService.ts` - AI request handling - `historyService.ts` - Chat history management - `debug/costs.ts` - Debug commands ## Testing - ✅ Build succeeds - ✅ No linting errors - ✅ No tokenizer encodings in renderer bundle (verified with `strings`) - ✅ `CostsTab` imports from `usageAggregator` (fast path) - ✅ Main process retains full tokenizer functionality - ✅ `sumUsageHistory()` function tested and working ## Stats ``` 4 files changed, 78 insertions(+), 63 deletions(-) ``` _Generated with `cmux`_
