Codeman maintainer 2653db10b5 feat(story-mode): draw a Claude session's turns as comic pages, live
Story Mode is an opt-in header button (showStoryButton, per device, default
off, kept off phones) that opens the active Claude Code session as comic pages:
one page per prompt, panels for reading code, planning, helpers, edits, tests
(POW/KRAK), questions and saving, each with a plain story caption and a
Director's cut caption naming the tools. Files open in the existing file
preview, the code page opens the exact diff, a test board opens the output,
and a running turn redraws as Claude works.

Server: GET /api/sessions/:id/story (experimental) reads a bounded tail of the
session's own transcript. A pure core (src/story-mode.ts) reduces lines,
joins tool calls with their results, splits turns at prompts and
turn_duration, and groups events into at most 12 panels; Bash calls are
sorted by what the command does. The reader (src/story-reader.ts) caches
reduced entries and reads only appended bytes while the file grows.

Frontend: story-mode.js (canvas frame engine, live refresh from transcript and
hook SSE events plus a poll while a turn runs, details drawer, the wire) and
story-mode.css, with two self-hosted OFL comic fonts.

/**
* @fileoverview Does a Claude conversation transcript exist on this host?
*
* Claude writes one `<conversation-id>.jsonl` per conversation under
* `<config dir>/projects/<mangled cwd>/`. Two launch decisions turn on whether
* such a file exists: `--resume <id>` needs one, and `--session-id <id>` is
* REFUSED when one exists (`Error: Session ID ... is already in use.`).
*
* The project directory name is derived from the working directory, and a case
* that has been moved or renamed leaves its transcript under the OLD name, so
* the search is across every project directory rather than the one that matches
* the pane's cwd today.
*
* ⚠️ Existence is the whole question here, with no size floor. The create route
* additionally requires ~4 KB before it will resume, which is a "is this
* conversation worth resuming" judgement; for a relaunch the question is the
* opposite one — a one-line transcript still makes `--session-id` collide.
*
* ⚠️ A false answer is not the conservative one. Skipping a resume leaves the
* relaunch on `--session-id <id>`, which is safe only when no transcript backs
* that id either, so a lookup that misses the real config dir turns a
* recoverable pane into the collision this module exists to prevent.
*
* @dependencies none
* @consumedby session (relaunch resume pinning), web/routes/story-routes (Story Mode transcript lookup)
*
* @module utils/claude-transcript
