Summary

Updated the sample payload envelope in examples.ts to demonstrate the new arx (Agent Render eXtreme) compression codec and its capabilities, replacing the previous generic "Release bundle" example with a comprehensive showcase of the v2.0 release.

Key Changes

  • Renamed bundle: Changed from generic "Release bundle" to "arx showcase bundle" with release-notes as the active artifact
  • Replaced artifacts with v2.0-focused content:
    • overviewrelease-notes: Comprehensive markdown documenting arx compression pipeline, encoding tiers (base76, base1k, baseBMP), and compression benchmarks showing up to 8.22× size reduction
    • manifestcodec-src: TypeScript code excerpt showing the arx compression/decompression implementation with three-stage pipeline (dictionary substitution → Brotli → binary-to-text encoding)
    • metricsmigration-diff: Git-style unified diff demonstrating v1 → v2 migration with async codec support and arx integration
    • Added bench-data: CSV table with real compression benchmarks across different payload types
    • manifest: Enhanced JSON manifest documenting arx configuration, transport settings, and feature flags

Notable Details

  • Release notes include detailed compression benchmarks table and visual pipeline diagram
  • Code excerpt demonstrates the complete arx codec with header detection, encoding selection, and decompression logic
  • Diff shows migration from synchronous to async codec handling with arx as preferred codec
  • CSV benchmarks span 9 different payload types with compression ratios ranging from 7.18× to 28.49×
  • Manifest now documents the full arx pipeline configuration including dictionary targeting and encoding specifications

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added arx URL-fragment compression support with async encode/decode paths.
  • Documentation

    • Expanded release notes with compression guidance and benchmarks.
    • Added codec examples and migration guidance.
  • UI

    • Sample cards now show a human-friendly description when available.

…rtifact kinds

The new "arx showcase bundle" packs rich content across every supported
artifact type — markdown with tables/code fences/task lists, TypeScript
source with the arx codec excerpt, a multi-file migration diff, CSV
compression benchmarks, and a detailed JSON manifest — to demonstrate
how much data arx can compress into a single URL fragment.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Replaced the example "Release bundle" with an "arx showcase" bundle demonstrating agent-render v2.0: added release notes, TypeScript codec source (async arxCompress/arxDecompress), expanded benchmarks, updated manifest, added async encode/decode sample (dictionary load + arx flow), and adjusted viewer text and tests to target the new sample.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
Example Artifacts & samples
src/lib/payload/examples.ts
Replaced "Release bundle" sample with arx showcase: added release-notes (RELEASE.md), codec-src TypeScript snippet exporting async arxCompress/arxDecompress and types, swapped metrics.csvbenchmarks.csv, updated agent-render manifest to v2.0.0 (url-fragment transport, preferred arx codec, pipeline/encoding metadata), and embedded migration-diff that adds encodeEnvelopeAsync/decodeFragmentAsync, async codec set, dictionary loading, and arx async handling with fallback.
Viewer UI
src/components/viewer-shell.tsx
Sample card subtitle now shows sample.description when present; otherwise preserves prior artifact-count fallback with correct singular/plural.
End-to-end tests
tests/e2e/viewer.spec.ts, tests/e2e/visual.spec.ts
Updated test navigation/selectors to use the new sample title/hash arx showcase instead of Release bundle; no assertion or interaction changes beyond selecting the new sample.

I pack with arx and wake at night,
Dicts I fetch and hops I cheer,
Bundles, benches, samples near,
A rabbit’s patch of code takes flight ✨

CRITICAL: CSV data typo - 560convergence should be 560. The word "convergence" is stray text that was accidentally concatenated to the arx_baseBMP_chars value. This will cause CSV parsing errors when this example is rendered.

P1 Badge Preserve the existing sample fixture contract

Renaming this bundle and its artifact labels breaks the shared Playwright fixtures immediately. getFragmentHash("Release bundle") now throws in tests/fixtures/payloads.ts:7-17, and the tests that still navigate by Release bundle, Artifact manifest, and Bundle metrics in tests/e2e/viewer.spec.ts:130-166 and tests/e2e/visual.spec.ts:57-69 will all fail unless the fixtures are updated in the same change.

P2 Badge Encode the new showcase sample through the arx path

This preset is presented as an arx showcase, but sampleLinks still builds every sample hash with synchronous encodeEnvelope in this file, and that path only considers deflate, lz, and plain (src/lib/payload/fragment.ts:119-130). Clicking the homepage card therefore never produces a v1.arx... fragment, so the fragment inspector will show a non-arx codec and the sample does not actually exercise the transport it claims to demonstrate.

In `@src/lib/payload/examples.ts`:
- Around line 95-102: The arx fragment parsing in decodeFragmentAsync
incorrectly treats the fragment as "#agent-render=v1.<codec>.<payload>" and
doesn't extract the additional dictVersion segment used by arx; update
decodeFragmentAsync (and its use of loadArxDictionary and arxDecompress) to
split the payload on '.' when codec === "arx", take the first segment as
dictVersion, rejoin the rest as arxPayload, call loadArxDictionary(dictVersion),
then call arxDecompress(arxPayload, dict) and JSON.parse the result; keep other
codecs handled by the existing decodeFragment function.
- Line 109: The CSV string shown in the example contains a malformed final field
"560convergence" in the row starting with "html_template_4kb"; fix it by
replacing "560convergence" with "560" (removing the accidental "convergence"
text) so the row becomes "...1413,821,560" and ensure the surrounding CSV string
literal in the examples file remains properly quoted/terminated.
- Line 74: Revert the title property in the example payload back to "Release
bundle" (undo the change from "arx showcase bundle") so tests that call
getByRole("link", { name: /Release bundle/i }) and getFragmentHash("Release
bundle") keep working, and correct the corrupted CSV artifact value
"560convergence" in the same examples file to a numeric value (e.g., 560) so the
example data remains valid and representative; look for the title field and the
CSV/artifact string in src/lib/payload/examples.ts to make these two fixes.
