Change

Wrap the complete server fetch boundary in request correlation, including early refusals,
startup errors, static responses, streams and successful local and relayed WebSocket upgrades.
Each response or handshake carries its own server-generated X-Request-Id. Valid client IDs
remain separate correlation data, so repeated client IDs never compromise server uniqueness.

Keep completion records under the resolved state directory in http-requests.jsonl, rotating
before 1 MiB and retaining one previous file: at most two 1 MiB files with 1024-byte lines.
Route templates are assigned by the matching dispatch branches, preserving reserved-route
precedence. Existing state-directory permissions remain the operator's choice.
Fill absent response defaults without replacing the route's CSP, framing, MIME, caching or
compression headers. Same-origin API helpers stamp client IDs while preserving explicit headers.
Document the HTTP headers and file/handshake semantics, add a changelog fragment, and credit
the Agent of Empires request-correlation approach in THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md.

Refs #1050

This HTTP/WebSocket contract change waits for a real CodeRabbit review before merging.

Validation

• Unchanged baseline: 58 passing tests covering HTTP errors, static policy, API helpers and
  device access, run under the isolated check runner.
• bun run check fast: passed all six steps with exit code 0; final source verified.
• bun test ./server/request-log.test.ts ./src/lib/api-request-id.test.ts: focused request
  correlation, rotation, writer failures, filesystem policy and same-origin header behavior;
  all 12 tests passed after revision.
• CHECK_WAIT_SECONDS=3600 bun run check run bun test --timeout 15000 ./server/request-log.contract.test.ts:
  real port-0 HTTP/SSE responses and local/relay handshakes, exactly one completion, malformed
  and repeated correlation IDs, unchanged route policies and writer-failure behavior; all
  four tests passed with 220 assertions, including the reserved setup-route collision.
• bun test ./scripts/conventions.test.ts: all nine tests passed; demo transport remains covered.

No new endpoint, WebSocket frame, visible UI or translated string is introduced. Demo transport,
i18n and DESIGN.md changes and visual captures are not applicable to this server metadata change.
The relay test uses a local wire stand-in; no SSH target or provider CLI is started.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Added request IDs to same-origin API requests, HTTP requests, and WebSocket handshakes for easier request correlation.
  • Added structured server request logging with route, status, timing, and client information.
  • Added default security headers and privacy protections that exclude secrets from logs.
  • Added bounded log storage and rotation with graceful handling of storage failures.

• Documentation

  • Documented request correlation, access logging, security behavior, and protocol details.
  • Added third-party attribution and licensing information.

The change adds bounded server request logs with request IDs, route labels, and default security headers. Same-origin client API requests gain request IDs when absent. Tests, protocol notes, development documentation, a changelog entry, and third-party attribution cover the behavior.

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 35272

Storage failures can silently stop request-correlation records. The log-size bound may also be exceeded if servers share a state directory. These are bounded operational risks to address or explicitly accept before merging.

- Line 729: Update RequestLog.handle to compare the open file descriptor’s
current size via fstatSync(this.fd).size plus the pending line length against
FILE_BYTES. Remove the obsolete bytes field and its assignments in open and
handle, while preserving the existing rotation behavior.

Review comments at @server/request-log.ts:
- Around line 95-98: Update the request-log writer to report its first failure
once per instance without changing responses: add a one-time warning helper and
invoke it before close() in the constructor, rotation, and write failure paths,
including the non-file stat branch. Keep the warning redacted and close the
writer after reporting the failure.
