refactor(tools): move session tools to the agent_tools registry (#4454)

Moves create_session, list_sessions, send_to_session and manage_session out of
ai_interaction.py into src/agent_tools/session_tools.py (the do_ prefix
dropped) and registers them in TOOL_HANDLERS, so dispatch flows through the
registry instead of the dispatch_ai_tool elif in tool_execution.py. Same
pattern as the model-interaction move.

The bodies move verbatim; each fetches the runtime-set session manager via a
get_session_manager() shim, and reuses _resolve_model / AI_CHAT_TIMEOUT from
ai_interaction. manage_session's internal 'list' alias is repointed from the
old do_list_sessions to the moved list_sessions. stream_ai_tool (dead, no
callers) and do_pipeline stay put. dispatch_ai_tool loses its four now-unused
branches.

Tests: test_session_tools_registry covers registration, owner threading, the
manage_session->list_sessions delegation, graceful no-manager handling, and
registry dispatch. Verified end-to-end against a live SessionManager.

+# Architecture Runtime Inventory
+
+> **Purpose**: Phase 0 planning baseline for codebase readability improvements (#4071).
+> **Parent issue**: [#4082](https://github.com/pewdiepie-archdaemon/odysseus/issues/4082)
+> **Last updated**: dev@b58af42 | 2026-06-16
+> **Status**: Draft — to be reviewed before follow-up slices open.
+> **Snapshot basis**: Importer / file / import-line counts are refreshed to `dev@b58af42` (2026-06-16) and are recomputable via the commands in §3.4. **Line counts** in §2.1 / §2.2 are a snapshot from an earlier baseline and drift as `dev` moves — recompute any of them with `wc -l <file>`. This inventory tracks structure and risk, not live metrics.
+
+This document maps the current runtime module structure, identifies high-risk boundaries, and recommends safe first refactor slices. It does **not** move files, change imports, or alter runtime behavior.

+
+### 1.2 Directory Flatness Metric
+
+| Directory | Flat `.py` Files | Subdirectories | Concern |
+|-----------|-----------------|----------------|---------|
+| `src/` | **95** | 2 (`agent_tools/`, `search/`) | No domain grouping; 95 files in one directory |
+| `routes/` | **54** | 0 | All route handlers in one flat directory |
+| `core/` | 10 | 0 | Manageable, but `database.py` is oversized |
+
+---
+
+## 2. Largest Runtime Modules
+
+### 2.1 Python Backend
+
+| Rank | File | Lines | Classes | Functions | Risk |
+|------|------|-------|---------|-----------|------|
+| 1 | `src/tool_implementations.py` | **4,032** | 0 | ~48 | **HIGH** |
+| 2 | `routes/email_routes.py` | **3,245** | — | — | **MEDIUM** |
+| 3 | `routes/cookbook_routes.py` | **2,969** | — | — | **MEDIUM** |
+| 4 | `src/agent_loop.py` | **2,961** | 0 | ~24 | **HIGH** |
+| 5 | `src/task_scheduler.py` | **2,330** | — | 5 | MEDIUM |
+| 6 | `routes/model_routes.py` | **2,266** | — | — | MEDIUM |
+| 7 | `core/database.py` | **2,265** | 28 | ~59 helpers | **HIGH** |
+| 8 | `src/builtin_actions.py` | **2,262** | 2 | ~24 | MEDIUM |
+| 9 | `src/llm_core.py` | **2,164** | — | — | MEDIUM |
+| 10 | `mcp_servers/email_server.py` | 2,197 | — | — | LOW (separate process) |
+| 11 | `src/visual_report.py` | 1,918 | — | — | LOW |
+| 12 | `routes/gallery_routes.py` | 1,896 | — | — | LOW |
+| 13 | `src/ai_interaction.py` | 1,846 | — | — | MEDIUM |
+| 14 | `routes/document_routes.py` | 1,717 | — | — | LOW |
+| 15 | `routes/skills_routes.py` | 1,648 | — | — | LOW |
+
+**Heuristic**: Files > 2,000 lines with 20+ public symbols and many importers are the highest-risk splits. Files 1,000–2,000 lines are medium-risk if tightly coupled.
+
+### 2.2 Frontend
+
+| File | Lines | Concern |
+|------|-------|---------|
+| `static/style.css` | **36,653** | Entire app CSS in one file (tracked separately in #2617) |
+| `static/js/document.js` | **9,776** | Single JS file for document functionality |
+| `static/js/slashCommands.js` | 6,498 | |
+| `static/js/settings.js` | 5,266 | |
+| `static/js/emailLibrary.js` | 5,217 | |
+| `static/js/notes.js` | 5,124 | |
+| `static/js/chat.js` | 4,985 | |
+| `static/app.js` | 4,090 | |
+
+**Note**: Frontend modularization is tracked separately in #2617 (CSS) and is not the focus of this Phase 0 inventory. Frontend is listed here for completeness but follow-up slices should target Python backend boundaries first.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Import Dependency Graph
+
+### 3.1 Who Depends on `core/database.py`
+
+**102 files** import from `core.database` — this is the most depended-upon module:
+
+- All route handlers (`routes/*.py`)
+- Most `src/*.py` files
+- `core/session_manager.py`, `core/auth.py`
+- Multiple test files
+
+**Implication**: Any split of `core/database.py` is the highest-risk refactor. It should be tackled **last**, never first.
+
+### 3.2 Who Depends on `src/tool_implementations.py`
+
+**17 files** import from `src.tool_implementations`:
+- `src/agent_loop.py`, `src/builtin_actions.py`, `src/tool_index.py`
+- `src/task_scheduler.py`, `src/tool_policy.py`
+- Various tests
+
+### 3.3 Who Depends on `src/agent_loop.py`
+
+**22 files** import from `src.agent_loop`:
+
+- `src/tool_policy.py`, `src/teacher_escalation.py`, `src/bg_monitor.py`
+- `src/task_scheduler.py`
+- Multiple test files
+
+### 3.4 Cross-Layer Import Violations
+
+**`src/` importing from `routes/`** (backwards dependency — domain logic depending on HTTP layer):
+
+```
+src/tool_implementations.py ──→ routes/calendar_routes.py
+src/tool_implementations.py ──→ routes/cookbook_helpers.py
+src/tool_implementations.py ──→ routes/email_helpers.py
+src/tool_implementations.py ──→ routes/email_pollers.py
+src/tool_implementations.py ──→ routes/email_routes.py
+src/tool_implementations.py ──→ routes/model_routes.py
+src/tool_implementations.py ──→ routes/note_routes.py
+src/tool_implementations.py ──→ routes/prefs_routes.py
+```
+
+> These are **runtime imports** (inside function bodies, not at module top), which mitigates circular import risk but indicates fuzzy layer boundaries. Function-level inline imports from the HTTP layer into business logic are a code smell.
+
+**Import counts (top-level)**:
+| Direction | Count | Notes |
+|-----------|-------|-------|
+| `routes/` → `src/` | **374** | Expected: HTTP handlers call domain logic |
+| `routes/` → `core/` | **126** | Expected: handlers access DB models |
+| `src/` → `routes/` | **31** | **Unexpected**: domain logic reaching into HTTP layer (direct grep of import lines referencing `routes/`) |
+| `src/` → `core/` | **106** | Acceptable but could be reduced with a data-access layer |
+
+> **How the metrics in this document are computed** — recompute against current `dev` before treating any count as authoritative (the tree drifts; these numbers are a snapshot, not a live value):
+> - `src/` flat `.py` files: `find src -maxdepth 1 -name '*.py' | wc -l`
+> - `tests/` test files: `find tests -name 'test_*.py' | wc -l`
+> - `core.database` importers: `grep -rlE '(from|import) +core\.database' --include='*.py' . | grep -v core/database.py | wc -l`
+> - `src.agent_loop` importers: `grep -rlE '(from|import) +src\.agent_loop' --include='*.py' . | grep -v src/agent_loop.py | wc -l`
+> - Cross-layer import lines: `grep -rhE '(from|import) +<pkg>' --include='*.py' <dir>/ | wc -l` (e.g. `(from|import) +routes` over `src/`)
+
+---
+
+## 4. Route Ownership Map
+
+Routes can be grouped into logical feature domains. Current flat structure obscures these boundaries:
+
+| Domain | Route Files | Total Lines | Review Complexity |
+|--------|-------------|-------------|-------------------|
+| **Email** | `email_routes.py`, `email_helpers.py`, `email_pollers.py` | 5,936 | HIGH — most complex domain |
+| **Chat / Agent** | `chat_routes.py`, `chat_helpers.py`, `shell_routes.py`, `codex_routes.py`, `skills_routes.py` | 6,365 | HIGH — core interaction surface |
+| **Cookbook** | `cookbook_routes.py`, `cookbook_helpers.py`, `cookbook_output.py` | 4,110 | MEDIUM |
+| **Model / LLM** | `model_routes.py`, `assistant_routes.py`, `copilot_routes.py` | 2,764 | MEDIUM |
+| **Calendar / Contacts** | `calendar_routes.py`, `contacts_routes.py` | 2,336 | MEDIUM |
+| **Documents** | `document_routes.py`, `document_helpers.py` | 1,954 | LOW |
+| **Auth** | `auth_routes.py`, `api_token_routes.py`, `device_flow.py` | 1,171 | LOW |
+| **Tasks** | `task_routes.py` (standalone) | 1,157 | LOW |
+| **Session** | `session_routes.py` (standalone) | 1,287 | LOW |
+| **Gallery** | `gallery_routes.py`, `gallery_helpers.py` | 1,896 | LOW |
+| **Memory** | `memory_routes.py` | — | LOW |
+| **Research** | `research_routes.py` | — | LOW |
+| **MCP** | `mcp_routes.py` | — | LOW |
+| **Notes** | `note_routes.py` | — | LOW |
+| **Other** | `prefs_routes.py`, `upload_routes.py`, `vault_routes.py`, `webhook_routes.py`, `workspace_routes.py`, `search_routes.py`, `history_routes.py`, `hwfit_routes.py`, `preset_routes.py`, `signature_routes.py`, `backup_routes.py`, `cleanup_routes.py`, `diagnostics_routes.py`, `embedding_routes.py`, `emoji_routes.py`, `font_routes.py`, `stt_routes.py`, `tts_routes.py`, `compare_routes.py`, `personal_routes.py`, `editor_draft_routes.py`, `admin_wipe_routes.py`, `chatgpt_subscription_routes.py` | 2,000+ | LOW individual, HIGH cumulative |
+
+---
+
+## 5. Tool Registry & Implementation Boundaries
+
+### 5.1 Current Tool Architecture
+
+| Component | File | Lines | Role |
+|-----------|------|-------|------|
+| Tool schemas | `src/tool_schemas.py` | 1,392 | JSON Schema tool definitions (Duck-TypedDict) |
+| Tool index | `src/tool_index.py` | 542 | RAG-based tool retrieval from ChromaDB |
+| Tool implementations | `src/tool_implementations.py` | 4,032 | 33 `do_*` functions — all tool execution logic |
+| Tool security | `src/tool_security.py` | — | Owner-scoped tool blocking |
+| Tool policy | `src/tool_policy.py` | — | Guide-only directive, plan-mode disabled tools |
+| Tool utils | `src/tool_utils.py` | — | Shared tool helpers |
+
+### 5.2 Tool Implementation Categories
+
+The 33 `do_*` functions in `tool_implementations.py` fall into natural domain groups — the basis for slice 1's split in §6.2:
+
+| Category | `do_*` functions | Count |
+|----------|------------------|-------|
+| **System / config** | `do_manage_skills`, `do_manage_tasks`, `do_manage_endpoints`, `do_manage_mcp`, `do_manage_webhooks`, `do_manage_tokens`, `do_manage_settings`, `do_api_call`, `do_app_api` | 9 |
+| **Cookbook / model serving** | `do_download_model`, `do_serve_model`, `do_list_served_models`, `do_stop_served_model`, `do_tail_serve_output`, `do_list_downloads`, `do_cancel_download`, `do_search_hf_models`, `do_adopt_served_model`, `do_list_cookbook_servers`, `do_list_serve_presets`, `do_serve_preset`, `do_list_cached_models` | 13 |
+| **Notes** | `do_manage_notes` | 1 |
+| **Calendar** | `do_manage_calendar` | 1 |
+| **Search** | `do_search_chats` | 1 |
+| **Research** | `do_manage_research`, `do_trigger_research` | 2 |
+| **Contacts** | `do_resolve_contact`, `do_manage_contact` | 2 |
+| **Vault** | `do_vault_search`, `do_vault_get`, `do_vault_unlock` | 3 |
+| **Image** | `do_edit_image` | 1 |
+| | **Total** | **33** |
+
+> Low-level tools (filesystem, subprocess, web fetch, document parsing) live in `src/agent_tools/`, **not** in `tool_implementations.py` — out of scope for this split.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Risk Assessment & Candidate Slice Ranking
+
+> **Candidate proposals, not a committed plan.** The rankings, package shapes (e.g. `src/pkg/`, `src/domain/`, `src/infra/`, `src/api/`), split ordering, and route-grouping strategy below are **options for maintainer discussion**. Per #4082/#4071, slice ownership and order are settled by maintainers before any follow-up PR. §1–§3 above are the factual current-state inventory.
+
+### 6.1 Risk Scale
+
+| Level | Criteria |
+|-------|----------|
+| **LOW** | File has ≤3 importers AND ≤500 lines, OR is a pure refactor with clear boundaries |
+| **MEDIUM** | File has 4–15 importers OR 500–1,500 lines |
+| **HIGH** | File has 16+ importers OR >2,000 lines, OR has cross-layer import violations |
+
+### 6.2 Ranked Split Candidates
+
+| Priority | Target | Risk | Rationale |
+|----------|--------|------|-----------|
+| **1** | `src/tool_implementations.py` → `src/tools/*.py` | **MEDIUM** | 4,032 lines → ~10 files by tool category. Already has natural boundaries. 17 importers, tracked in #3629. Use `__init__.py` shim to keep existing imports working. |
+| **2** | `routes/` → domain subdirectories (one domain per PR) | **MEDIUM** | 54 flat files. Done **one domain at a time** (e.g. a standalone PR for the email domain, then chat, …), not a broad reorganization — route modules carry helper imports, registration assumptions, and test import paths. |
+| **3** | `src/agent_loop.py` → `src/agent/loop.py` + submodules | **MEDIUM-HIGH** | 2,961 lines, 24 functions. Can extract prompt building, classification, verification, and runaway detection. Tracked in #3266. |
+| **4** | `src/` → `src/pkg/`, `src/domain/`, `src/infra/`, `src/api/` | **MEDIUM** | Structural reorganization. Split flat `src/` into layered packages. Must come after routes and tools are stable. |
+| **5** | `routes/email_*.py` consolidation | **LOW** | Already grouped by filename prefix. Low-risk cleanup within the email domain. |
+| **6** | `core/database.py` → `src/infra/database/models/*.py` | **HIGH** | 28 classes, 102 importers. Highest-risk split. Must be **last** in any sequence. Requires careful import shim strategy. |
+| **7** | Frontend CSS modularization | **MEDIUM** | 36,653 lines. Tracked in #2617. Separate timeline from backend work. |
+| **8** | Frontend JS modularization | **MEDIUM** | 9,776 lines in `document.js`. Introduce ES modules at minimum. |
+
+### 6.3 Candidate First 3 Behavior-Preserving Slices
+
+**Slice 1: Split `tool_implementations.py`** (Lowest-risk high-impact)
+
+- Create `src/tools/` package with one file per tool category
+- Add `src/tools/__init__.py` re-exporting all symbols with current names
+- Update 17 importers to use new paths (can be deferred via shim)
+- Validation: `python -m pytest tests/ -x -q` + manual smoke test of tool execution
+- Reference: #3629
+
+**Slice 2: Group `routes/` by domain** (one domain per PR, not a broad sweep)
+
+Route modules carry helper imports, router registration assumptions, and test import paths, so this must be done **one domain at a time** rather than as a single reorganization PR. Example sequence (each its own PR):
+
+- PR 2a: move the **email** domain (`email_routes.py`, `email_helpers.py`, `email_pollers.py`) → `routes/email/` + shim
+- PR 2b: move the **chat/agent** domain → `routes/chat/` + shim
+- PR 2c: move the **cookbook** domain → `routes/cookbook/` + shim
+- …and so on per domain from §4
+
+Each PR: add `__init__.py` re-exporting old names, update `app.py` router imports, validation `python app.py` starts clean. **No behavior change** — pure file reorganization.
+
+**Slice 3: Extract `agent_loop.py` submodules** (Improve reviewability)
+
+- Move prompt assembly → `src/agent/prompt.py`
+- Move request classification → `src/agent/classifier.py`
+- Move sub-agent verification → `src/agent/verifier.py`
+- Move runaway detection → `src/agent/runaway.py`
+- Move context management → `src/agent/context.py`
+- Keep `src/agent/loop.py` as the main orchestration module
+- Validation: `python -m pytest tests/test_agent_loop.py tests/test_loop_breaker_runaway.py -v`
+
+---
+
+## 7. Safety Guardrails for Follow-Up Work
+
+Per maintainer guidance in #4082 and #4071:
+
+- [ ] **One domain/slice per PR** — never mix multiple reorganizations
+- [ ] **No behavior changes** mixed with file moves — pure reorganization only
+- [ ] **Keep compatibility shims** — `__init__.py` re-exports for all existing import paths
+- [ ] **Add or identify focused tests** before risky splits
+- [ ] **Do not start with `core/database.py`** or broad route movement unless this inventory shows a safe boundary
+- [ ] **Prefer small, reviewable slices** over large restructures
+- [ ] **No packaging/runtime/tooling migration** mixed into file moves
+- [ ] **No frontend framework migration** inside this stabilization lane
+- [ ] **Validate with `python -m compileall`** — every PR must pass CI checks
+- [ ] **Validate with `pytest`** — run the full test suite before opening each PR
+
+---
+
+## 8. Validation Commands
+
+Each follow-up PR should be verifiable with these commands before submission:
+
+```bash
+# Syntax check — must pass with zero errors
+python -m compileall src/ routes/ core/ conf/
+
+# Full test suite — must match baseline pass rate
+python -m pytest tests/ -x -q
+
+# Import shim verification — existing import paths must still work
+python -c "from src.tool_implementations import do_search_chats; print('OK')"
+
+# App startup smoke test (if backend touched)
+timeout 5 python app.py 2>&1 | head -5 || true
+```
+
+---
+
+## 9. Open Questions
+
+1. Is `#2538` (specs ground truth) the canonical behavior map baseline, and should this inventory be kept in sync with those specs once merged?
+2. Should route grouping follow the domain map proposed here, or is there a different taxonomy preferred by maintainers?
+3. For the `tool_implementations.py` split (#3629), is the tool categorization in §5.2 acceptable, or should it follow a different grouping?
+4. Should compatibility shims (`__init__.py`) be temporary (removed in a follow-up wave) or permanent?
+5. Should an ADR (Architecture Decision Record) document be started to track decisions made during this process?
+
+---
+
+## 10. Future Direction (NOT current state)
+
+The following are **future refactor targets** (candidate directions **pending maintainer agreement**, not committed), recorded here so this inventory does not imply they exist today. None of them are present in the current `dev` tree:
+
+- `main.py` — proposed rename of the `app.py` entrypoint. Today the app boots via `app.py`.
+- `src/agent/` — proposed package to hold `agent_loop.py` submodules (prompt/classifier/verifier/runaway/context). Today `agent_loop.py` is a single flat file in `src/`.
+- `src/infra/`, `src/domain/`, `src/pkg/`, `src/api/` — proposed layered reorganization of the flat `src/` directory (slice 4 in §6).
+
+These become real only when the corresponding slices land.

+AI-to-AI interaction tools: pipeline and manage_memory, plus shared model
+resolution (_resolve_model), the session-manager singleton, and dispatch_ai_tool.
+
+As part of the tool -> registry migration (#3629), chat_with_model, ask_teacher
+and list_models moved to src/agent_tools/model_interaction_tools.py, and
+create_session, list_sessions, send_to_session and manage_session moved to
+src/agent_tools/session_tools.py. Those modules reuse get_session_manager /
+_resolve_model / AI_CHAT_TIMEOUT from here.
 
 These are agent tools — the LLM writes fenced code blocks and they execute
 through the standard agent_tools.py pipeline.
