# Track Specification: Cache Analytics Display (cache_analytics_20260306)
## Overview
Gemini cache hit/miss visualization, memory usage, TTL status display. Uses existing ai_client.get_gemini_cache_stats() which is not displayed in GUI.
Gemini cache hit/miss visualization, memory usage, TTL status display. Uses existing `ai_client.get_gemini_cache_stats()` which is implemented but has no GUI representation.
## Current State Audit
### Already Implemented (DO NOT re-implement)
- **`ai_client.get_gemini_cache_stats()`** (src/ai_client.py) - Returns dict with:
- `cache_exists`: bool - Whether a Gemini cache is active
- `cache_age_seconds`: float - Age of current cache in seconds
- `ttl_seconds`: int - Cache TTL (default 3600)
- `ttl_remaining`: float - Seconds until cache expires
- `created_at`: float - Unix timestamp of cache creation
- **Gemini cache variables** (src/ai_client.py lines ~60-70):
- `_gemini_cache`: The `CachedContent` object or None
- `_gemini_cache_created_at`: float timestamp when cache was created
- `_GEMINI_CACHE_TTL`: int = 3600 (1 hour default)
- **Cache invalidation logic** already handles 90% TTL proactive renewal
### Gaps to Fill (This Track's Scope)
- No GUI panel to display cache statistics
- No visual indicator of cache health/TTL
- No manual cache clear button in UI
- No hit/miss tracking (Gemini API doesn't expose this directly - may need approximation)
## Architectural Constraints
- **Non-Blocking**: Cache queries MUST NOT block UI.
- **Efficient Polling**: Cache stats SHOULD be polled, not pushed.
### Threading & State Access
- **Non-Blocking**: Cache queries MUST NOT block the UI thread. The `get_gemini_cache_stats()` function reads module-level globals (`_gemini_cache`, `_gemini_cache_created_at`) which are modified on the asyncio worker thread during `_send_gemini()`.
- **No Lock Needed**: These are atomic reads (bool/float/int), but be aware they may be stale by render time. This is acceptable for display purposes.
- **Cross-Thread Pattern**: Use `manual-slop_get_git_diff` to understand how other read-only stats are accessed in `gui_2.py` (e.g., `ai_client.get_comms_log()`).
### GUI Integration
- **Location**: Add to `_render_token_budget_panel()` in `gui_2.py` or create new `_render_cache_panel()` method.
- **ImGui Pattern**: Use `imgui.collapsing_header("Cache Analytics")` to allow collapsing.
- **Code Style**: 1-space indentation, no comments unless requested.
### Performance
- **Polling vs Pushing**: Cache stats are cheap to compute (just float math). Safe to recompute each frame when panel is open.
- **No Event Needed**: Unlike MMA state, cache stats don't need event-driven updates.
## Architecture Reference
Consult these docs for implementation patterns:
- **[docs/guide_architecture.md](../../../docs/guide_architecture.md)**: Thread domains, cross-thread patterns
- **[docs/guide_tools.md](../../../docs/guide_tools.md)**: Hook API if exposing cache stats via API
### Key Integration Points
| File | Lines | Purpose |
|------|-------|---------|
| `src/ai_client.py` | ~200-230 | `get_gemini_cache_stats()` function |
| `src/ai_client.py` | ~60-70 | Cache globals (`_gemini_cache`, `_GEMINI_CACHE_TTL`) |
| `src/ai_client.py` | ~220 | `cleanup()` function for manual cache clear |
| `src/gui_2.py` | ~1800-1900 | `_render_token_budget_panel()` - potential location |
| `src/gui_2.py` | ~150-200 | `App.__init__` state initialization pattern |
## Functional Requirements
- **Cache Status**: Display active cache count and size.
- **Hit/Miss Ratio**: Calculate and display cache efficiency.
- **TTL Countdown**: Show time until next cache rebuild.
- **Manual Clear**: Button to manually clear cache.
### FR1: Cache Status Display
- Display whether a Gemini cache is currently active (`cache_exists` bool)
- Show cache age in human-readable format (e.g., "45m 23s old")
- Only show panel when `current_provider == "gemini"`
### FR2: TTL Countdown
- Display remaining TTL in seconds and as percentage (e.g., "15:23 remaining (42%)")
- Visual indicator when TTL is below 20% (warning color)
- Note: Cache auto-rebuilds at 90% TTL, so this shows time until rebuild trigger
### FR3: Manual Clear Button
- Button to manually clear cache via `ai_client.cleanup()`
- Button should have confirmation or be clearly labeled as destructive
- After clear, display "Cache cleared - will rebuild on next request"
### FR4: Hit/Miss Estimation (Optional Enhancement)
- Since Gemini API doesn't expose actual hit/miss counts, estimate by:
- Counting number of `send()` calls while cache exists
- Display as "Cache active for N requests"
## Non-Functional Requirements
| Requirement | Constraint |
|-------------|------------|
| Frame Time Impact | <1ms when panel visible |
| Memory Overhead | <1KB for display state |
| Thread Safety | Read-only access to ai_client globals |
## Testing Requirements
### Unit Tests
- Test panel renders without error when provider is Gemini
- Test panel is hidden when provider is not Gemini
- Test clear button calls `ai_client.cleanup()`
### Integration Tests (via `live_gui` fixture)
- Verify cache stats display after actual Gemini API call
- Verify TTL countdown decrements over time
### Structural Testing Contract
- **NO mocking** of `ai_client` internals - use real state
- Test artifacts go to `tests/artifacts/`
## Out of Scope
- Anthropic prompt caching display (different mechanism - ephemeral breakpoints)
- DeepSeek caching (not implemented)
- Actual hit/miss tracking from Gemini API (not exposed)
- Persisting cache stats across sessions
## Acceptance Criteria
- [ ] Cache panel displays in GUI.
- [ ] Hit/miss ratio calculated correctly.
- [ ] TTL countdown visible.
- [ ] Manual clear button works.
- [ ] Uses existing get_gemini_cache_stats().
- [ ] Cache panel displays in GUI when provider is Gemini
- [ ] Cache age shown in human-readable format
- [ ] TTL countdown visible with percentage
- [ ] Warning color when TTL < 20%
- [ ] Manual clear button works and calls `ai_client.cleanup()`
- [ ] Panel hidden for non-Gemini providers
- [ ] Uses existing `get_gemini_cache_stats()` - no new ai_client code
- [ ] 1-space indentation maintained
