π― Use case
This file lives under βutils/β, which covers cross-cutting helpers (shell, tempfiles, settings, messages, process input, β¦). On the API surface it exposes extractConversationText and generateSessionTitle β mainly functions, hooks, or classes. Dependencies touch schema validation. It composes internal code from bootstrap, services, types, debug, and json (relative imports). What the file header says: Session title generation via Haiku. Standalone module with minimal dependencies so it can be imported from print.ts (SDK control request handler) without pulling in the React/chalk/ git dependency chain that teleport.tsx carries. This is the single source of truth for AI-generate.
Generated from folder role, exports, dependency roots, and inline comments β not hand-reviewed for every path.
π§ Inline summary
Session title generation via Haiku. Standalone module with minimal dependencies so it can be imported from print.ts (SDK control request handler) without pulling in the React/chalk/ git dependency chain that teleport.tsx carries. This is the single source of truth for AI-generated session titles across all surfaces. Previously there were separate Haiku title generators: - teleport.tsx generateTitleAndBranch (6-word title + branch for CCR) - rename/generateSessionName.ts (kebab-case name for /rename) Each remains for backwards compat; new callers should use this module.
