cli/transports/SSETransport.ts
π― Use case
This file lives under βcli/β, which covers the CLI transport, NDJSON/streaming I/O, and command handlers. On the API surface it exposes parseSSEFrames, StreamClientEvent, and SSETransport β mainly types, interfaces, or factory objects. Dependencies touch HTTP client and src. It composes internal code from utils and Transport (relative imports).
Generated from folder role, exports, dependency roots, and inline comments β not hand-reviewed for every path.
