fix(usage): count shared Windows and WSL transcripts once - #24319
With the desktop app running both Windows and WSL backends, a provider transcript directory shared through drvfs is counted twice. The same directory has different paths and filesystem IDs across the OS boundary; the reporter measured 193 sessions with WSL disabled and 335 with it enabled.
Change
The desktop app persists one usage identity scope and forwards it to both backends. Servers identify Windows-backed transcript directories with that scope and their canonical Windows path. The shared usage merge joins those identities while retaining legacy matching, independent directories, and partial-scan supplementation. Failed identity lookups retry when a transcript directory appears later.
Triaged bug via the automated issue flow. Scope is the reported duplicate usage from a directory shared by desktop-managed Windows and WSL environments.
Verification
Focused merge, transcript-reader, usage-service, and desktop-configuration suites: 96 tests passed after merging main. Regression tests first failed with 284 instead of 142 sessions and $17 instead of $13 for overlapping partial scans.
Server, desktop, shared, and contracts scoped typechecks passed. Affected server export checking, changed-file formatting, lint, and generated GraphQL checks passed; lint retains two existing usage-service test warnings. The required check:changed attempt could not complete its broader 29-package typecheck under VM memory pressure; its focused tests passed.
Two independent reviewers approved the repaired diff.
Runtime evidence was captured at 5988add33e, before the clean main merge and a nonbehavioral private-helper export cleanup. Evidence uses frozen synthetic transcripts and fixed pricing on Linux. Windows identity metadata and drvfs mount information are simulated inputs; production scanning, identity generation, and merge logic run in the fixture.

…and WSL
One transcript directory read natively by Windows and through drvfs by WSL
yields two fingerprints with different paths and dev:ino, so mergeUsage
counts it twice. Tests express matching on an additive physicalSourceId
while keeping the fleet hostname collision guard and legacy dedupe.

…ows and WSL backends
The desktop app's Windows server reads ~/.claude natively and its managed WSL
server reads the same directory through drvfs. Path and dev:ino both differ,
so mergeUsage counted it twice.
The desktop app persists a non-secret host scope and hands it to both
backends (WSLENV for WSL). Each server derives an optional physicalSourceId
from the scope plus the Windows path: natively via realpath on Windows, and
on Linux only when /proc/self/mountinfo shows the deepest mount holding the
directory is drvfs, using on-disk names rather than case folding. mergeUsage
unions that id with the legacy key, so legacy servers, fleets that share a
hostname, and partial supplemental cells keep their existing behavior.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
A directory that did not exist on the first usage read kept no physical
source id until restart, so Windows and WSL kept counting it twice. Only
resolved ids are cached now. The desktop host scope is also persisted on
first launch, when the state directory may not exist yet, so it stays
stable across restarts.
Also fixes the reader test's use of mountPoint before declaration, hoists
its summary decoder, fixes the reader-scan tuple type, adds path
compression to the merge's alias union-find, and covers the forwarded
scope in the desktop configuration tests.

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Shared Windows and WSL transcript directories now count once in usage summaries. The change affects usage aggregation without modifying transcripts, charges, or permissions, and retains existing identity behavior when physical-directory identification is unavailable.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
Fixed the same-environment alias case in 993914e5. Ownership now checks the winning source rather than its environment. The new regression failed with $13 instead of $10 before the fix and now verifies cost, 142 sessions, the winning day, and duplicate reporting. All 24 merge tests, scoped shared typecheck, lint and formatting pass; an independent review found no further issues.
The native Windows/WSL verification gap and human-approval requirement remain recorded.

The desktop forwards a persisted host scope to Windows and WSL backends. The server derives physical source IDs for supported Windows and WSL transcript paths. Usage merging uses those IDs to deduplicate matching reports while retaining legacy fingerprint matching.
Changes: Windows and WSL Usage Identity
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Persist and forward the desktop host scope apps/desktop/src/backend/DesktopBackendConfiguration.ts, apps/desktop/src/backend/DesktopBackendConfiguration.test.ts
Desktop configuration reuses a persisted 32-character hexadecimal scope or generates one, then passes it to Windows and WSL backends. Tests check shared values, WSL forwarding, and reuse across launches.
The usage fingerprint contract adds an optional physical source ID. The server resolves IDs from Windows paths and recognized WSL Windows-backed mounts, then includes available IDs in usage fingerprints. Tests cover path casing, mount eligibility, scope differences, and delayed directory creation.
Merge reports by physical source identity packages/shared/src/usageMerge.ts, packages/shared/src/usageMerge.test.ts
Usage merging aliases matching provider-scoped physical IDs while retaining legacy matching when IDs are absent. Tests cover scan order, partial scans, duplicate mounts, and legacy reports.

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to 98db1
Shared Windows/WSL transcript directories are now counted once in the common case, as the reviewer's Windows 11 and WSL 2 test showed. Two edge cases remain. Usage from distinct sources can be merged and undercounted when they share a legacy fingerprint but report different physical IDs. Custom WSL subdirectory mounts are still counted twice. Address the merge identity handling before merging, or explicitly accept the narrow risk.

Explanation
The title "fix(usage): count shared Windows and WSL transcripts once" names the primary change: a bug fix that stops double-counting a transcript directory shared between Windows and WSL backends. The raw summary confirms the changes center on shared-directory identity (physicalSourceId, host scope, mergeUsage deduplication). It follows the conventional commit format the template recommends.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the template sections. Problem explains the duplicate counting with measured numbers (193 vs 335 sessions). Change describes the persisted usage identity scope, canonical Windows path identity, and retained legacy matching. Scope links issue #7858 and explains the bug triage. Verification lists focused test runs, typecheck results, and runtime evidence, and it states what was not verified. The template asks for a short problem statement and a reproduction context; both are present. Minor gaps: the Scope section says 'Triaged bug via the automated issue flow' and does not explain why no issue is needed (it links one, so this is fine). The description is long, but it covers every required section with specific content.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
Issue #7858 requires a provider transcript directory shared by a Windows environment and a managed WSL environment to count once in Usage. It also requires that the fix not rely on hostname equality, not deduplicate separate directories, and not use session-ID overlap. At head 98db14c, the change set implements these points. DesktopBackendConfiguration.ts persists one host scope (T3CODE_DESKTOP_HOST_SCOPE) and forwards it to both backends, including WSLENV. usageTranscriptReader.ts derives physicalSourceIdOf(scope, canonical Windows path) for Windows directories and for WSL drvfs mounts, with case-resolution and rejection of ambiguous or non-drvfs mounts. contracts/src/usage.ts adds an optional physicalSourceId. usageMerge.ts (sourceIdentity) joins sources that share a physicalSourceId for the same provider, while keeping the legacy fingerprint key. That retains additive behavior for separate scopes and native Linux history. Tests cover shared directories, separate scopes, legacy payloads, partial-scan supplementation, and retry after directory creation. The incremental merge fix (physical ID precedence, one winning scan per source) is consistent with these requirements. Unverified: native Windows realpath behavior and the live Electron Windows/WSL flow. These are runtime checks. They do not change the coding requirement verdict.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
All changed areas support the duplicate-usage fix for #7858. The desktop changes persist and forward the host scope that creates the shared identity. The server changes (usageTranscriptReader.ts, UsageService.ts) derive and cache physical source IDs and retry failed lookups. The contracts change adds the optional physicalSourceId field. The shared merge changes (usageMerge.ts and its tests) apply that identity to deduplication. Tests cover the same behavior. The merge changes keep legacy matching, independent directories, and partial-scan handling. No unrelated product behavior appears in the reviewed files.

Keep conflicting physical IDs separate.
The union at lines 153-155 sets each physical key to the legacy key of the same fingerprint. When two Windows fingerprints share a legacy key but report different physicalSourceId values, both physical keys join that one legacy key. sourceIdentity then returns the same identity for both fingerprints, and claimSources keeps one owner. The other machine's usage is dropped from the totals. If the matching WSL fingerprints have different legacy keys, their physical IDs also join the shared identity, so those sources can be dropped too.
This can occur when two machines share a hostname and home path but report different physical IDs under the same legacy fingerprint. Each physical ID needs its own identity in that case.

Add a regression test with two Windows/WSL pairs. Each pair must share a legacy key and have a different physical ID. Keep the existing tests for unambiguous legacy matching and single-sided physical IDs.

…hared legacy fingerprint
Two installations whose legacy fingerprints collide but whose physical
source ids differ were joined through the legacy key, undercounting usage.
Physical ids now take precedence; a legacy-only reading adopts a physical
id only when its legacy key maps to exactly one.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
Fixed the conflicting physical-ID finding from this review in 02bee71636. Physical IDs now take precedence; a legacy-only source adopts a physical identity only when the match is unambiguous. This replaces union-find with one lookup map.
The two new regressions failed with cost 10 instead of 20 and 30 before the fix. All 26 merge tests, scoped shared typecheck, lint and formatting pass. Independent review found no blockers and confirmed the incremental proof is sufficient. Native Windows/WSL remains unverified.
Ran the unverified native checks on a real Windows 11 25H2 PC (build 26200.9711, x64) with WSL 2.6.1 (kernel 6.6.87.2-microsoft-standard-WSL2). Before was merge-base 26c3625, after was head 02bee71. The transcripts were synthetic and sat on an NTFS drive shared into WSL through the default drvfs mount (/mnt/d, 9p aname=drvfs;path=D:\). The WSL side reached that directory through a reporter-style ~/.claude symlink.
The before capture is dimmed because the page was refreshing after the environment menu closed. Its numbers match both DOM reads taken in that run.
Native identity behaviour the fix depends on:
On Windows, fs.promises.realpath returns the same on-disk path for these spellings: canonical, lowercase drive letter with wrong-case components, forward slashes, trailing backslash, an NTFS junction, and a subst drive. The JS fs.realpath keeps the typed casing and the subst letter, so using the native call in readPhysicalSourceId matters. (probe)
One physicalSourceId comes out of all four Windows spellings and both WSL spellings (the ~/.claude symlink, and /mnt/d/... typed in the wrong case). Path and volumeId still differ: 1617228095:281474977592079 on NTFS, 104:281474977592081 on drvfs. A directory on C: and a junction followed from WSL also match. (Windows probe, WSL probe)
Desktop-to-WSL transfer: the WSL server process received T3CODE_DESKTOP_HOST_SCOPE through WSLENV, and it equalled the persisted desktop-host-scope file. The base build forwards no scope. (head, base)
Not checked:
The packaged NSIS build and its staged WSL runtime archive. Only the unpackaged desktop with the dev node-pty build ran.
WSL1, mapped network drives or UNC paths, per-directory case-sensitive NTFS folders, and a native ext4 history directory inside WSL.
Real provider transcripts. All data was synthetic.
Scope persistence across restarts. The head state directory was launched several times, but the scope value was only read in the last launch.
Verification log
Hardware: x64 desktop running Windows 11 Pro 25H2 (26200.9711), displays at 100%. Node 26.12.1 for the harness. Electron 44.9.3 / Chromium 152.0.7977.167 in the app.
WSL 2.6.1.0, kernel 6.6.87.2-1. The harness ran in an Ubuntu 24.04.3 WSL2 distro. The desktop's WSL backend ran in a throwaway Ubuntu 24.04.5 base distro, which kept its T3 home isolated (the desktop strips T3CODE_HOME for WSL).
Before and after came from one checkout. For "before", the PR's 9 files were checked out from 26c3625 (git diff --stat 26c3625f48 -- apps packages empty), then restored to 02bee71.
Harness: a scratch script built UsageService.make with the checkout's production layers.
Real process.platform, real filesystem and real mountinfo, a fixed rate table, and a frozen clock at 2026-08-02T12:00Z.
Fixture transcripts from the PR evidence: 3 records, 2 sessions, 120 tokens. The script refused to write output if any non-Claude source scanned files.
Each side ran in one process: four Windows spellings, four WSL configurations. The summaries were then merged with the checkout's mergeUsage.
Desktop: vp run build at each revision, launched with Playwright _electron in the interactive session.
Isolated T3CODE_HOME/APPDATA/USERPROFILE/CODEX_HOME, and desktop-settings.json set to { wslBackendEnabled: true, wslDistro: <throwaway> }.
Synthetic transcripts dated the previous day sat in the shared directory. The WSL side read them through a ~/.claude symlink.
Readings came from the Usage page (Tokens, 30 days), with the environment filter set to All, Windows only and WSL only:
base: 240/4, 120/2, 120/2
head: 120/2, 120/2, 120/2 (WSL off: 120/2)
Attempts: the harness ran once per revision per side. Desktop: head 1 run (WSL off, then on), base 1 run. All readings were stable across repeated reads in the same run.
Model: Claude Opus 5.5 via Claude Code, in T3 Code; reviewed by GPT-6.1-Sol (Codex).
Main moved desktop backend configuration from Crypto to SecureRandom and caps comments at four lines; the host scope now draws SecureRandom bytes and the source identity comment is shortened.

Two desktop installs on one PC persist different host scopes, so one
directory they both read carries two physical IDs but one legacy key.
Join sources when either key matches instead of letting the physical ID
override the legacy match.

Shared Windows/WSL history remains counted once after enabling both backends: requires a Windows host with managed WSL and a shared Windows-mounted transcript directory.
Independent history remains additive: no real-app comparison was executed.

Accept drive-qualified subdirectory mount sources when deriving the physical identity.
WINDOWS_ROOT accepts only a drive root or a UNC share root. A drvfs mount of a Windows subdirectory, such as path=C:\Users\Alice\.claude, fails this check. windowsMountFor then returns undefined, and readPhysicalSourceId returns undefined for every directory under that mount. Those directories get no physical identity, so their usage cannot be matched to the same directory read from Windows. The same transcripts can then be counted twice.
Default WSL drive mounts (path=C:\) are not affected. The impact is limited to custom subdirectory drvfs mounts. The doc comment on readPhysicalSourceId already states that Windows-backed directories receive an identity, so the rejection contradicts that contract.
The source value keeps the casing used in the mount command. This change does not reconcile that casing with the on-disk names. Confirm the supported WSL versions emit the subdirectory form before merging.

Problem
With the desktop app running both Windows and WSL backends, a provider transcript directory shared through drvfs is counted twice. The same directory has different paths and filesystem IDs across the OS boundary; the reporter measured 193 sessions with WSL disabled and 335 with it enabled.
Change
The desktop app persists one usage identity scope and forwards it to both backends. Servers identify Windows-backed transcript directories with that scope and their canonical Windows path. The shared usage merge joins those identities while retaining legacy matching, independent directories, and partial-scan supplementation. Failed identity lookups retry when a transcript directory appears later.
