# Terminal Input WS Protocol
|
||||
|
||||
## Goal
|
||||
Reduce terminal input latency by replacing per-keystroke HTTP requests with a persistent WebSocket input channel, while keeping SSE output and HTTP endpoints as compatibility fallback.
|
||||
|
||||
## Scope
|
||||
- Input path: WebSocket (`/api/terminal/input-ws`)
|
||||
- Output path: SSE (`/api/terminal/:sessionId/stream`)
|
||||
- HTTP input fallback remains: `POST /api/terminal/:sessionId/input`
|
||||
|
||||
## Framing
|
||||
- Text frame: terminal keystroke payload (hot path)
|
||||
- Examples: `"\r"`, `"\u001b[A"`, `"\u0003"`
|
||||
- Binary frame: control envelope
|
||||
- Byte 0: tag (`0x01` = JSON control)
|
||||
- Bytes 1..N: UTF-8 JSON payload
|
||||
|
||||
## Control Messages
|
||||
- Bind active socket to terminal session:
|
||||
- client -> server: `{"t":"b","s":"<sessionId>","v":1}`
|
||||
- Keepalive ping:
|
||||
- client -> server: `{"t":"p","v":1}`
|
||||
- server -> client: `{"t":"po","v":1}`
|
||||
- Server control responses:
|
||||
- ready: `{"t":"ok","v":1}`
|
||||
- bind ok: `{"t":"bok","v":1}`
|
||||
- error: `{"t":"e","c":"<code>","f":true|false}`
|
||||
|
||||
## Multiplexing Model
|
||||
- Single shared socket per client runtime.
|
||||
- Socket has one mutable `boundSessionId`.
|
||||
- Client sends bind control when active terminal changes.
|
||||
- Keystroke frames apply to currently bound session.
|
||||
- Client keeps socket open and sends periodic keepalive pings so the channel stays ready for next input.
|
||||
- Client primes/opens this socket when the Terminal tab is opened (not per keystroke).
|
||||
|
||||
## Security
|
||||
- UI auth session required when UI password is enabled.
|
||||
- Origin validation enforced for cookie-authenticated browser upgrades.
|
||||
- Invalid/malformed frames are rate-limited and may close socket.
|
||||
|
||||
## Fallback Behavior
|
||||
- On WS unavailable/error/close, client falls back to HTTP input immediately.
|
||||
- Existing terminal behavior remains functional during mixed-version rollout.
