**File**: `src/sse.rs` (1,736 lines)
**Purpose**: Server-Sent Events parser for streaming LLM responses
**Criticality**: High - core streaming infrastructure

#### Security Analysis ✅

**DoS Protection - GOOD**:
- Event data size cap: 100MB (`MAX_EVENT_DATA_BYTES`)
- Buffer size cap: 10MB (`MAX_BUFFER_SIZE`)
- Uses `saturating_add()` to prevent integer overflow (line 135)
- Proper reset on buffer limit exceeded (lines 198-212)

**Memory Safety - GOOD**:
- No unsafe code usage
- Proper UTF-8 validation with error recovery
- Bounded memory growth with graceful degradation

**Input Validation - GOOD**:

- BOM stripping compliance (lines 234-242)
- Invalid retry field parsing handled gracefully (line 168)

#### UTF-8 Handling Analysis ✅

**Complex but Correct**:
- Dual-path processing: `process_chunk_without_utf8_tail` / `process_chunk_with_utf8_tail`
- Proper handling of UTF-8 sequences split across chunks
- EOF with incomplete UTF-8 produces terminal error (lines 532-543)
- Buffer management with `copy_within` for unprocessed bytes (lines 513-516)

#### Performance Optimizations ✅

**Event Type Interning** (lines 83-123):
- Pre-allocated `Cow::Borrowed` for common event types
- Covers Anthropic and OpenAI streaming APIs
- Eliminates per-event String allocation for known types

**Fast Path Processing** (lines 309-326):
- Direct processing when buffer empty
- Only copies to buffer when necessary
- Memchr-optimized newline scanning

#### Test Coverage Assessment ✅

**Comprehensive Testing**:
- Property-based tests with proptest (256 cases)
- Fuzz regression tests (crash artifact verification)
- UTF-8 boundary edge cases
- Multi-chunk streaming scenarios
- Error injection and recovery paths

#### Issues Found: NONE

**No critical bugs identified**. The implementation demonstrates:
1. Proper defensive programming patterns
2. Comprehensive edge case handling
3. Security-conscious design
4. Production-ready error recovery

#### Recommendations

**Memory Management - GOOD**:
- Bounded batch sizes for parallel parsing (`JSONL_PARSE_BATCH_SIZE`)
- Incremental loading for large sessions (V2 hydration modes)
- Autosave queue with backpressure limits (`DEFAULT_AUTOSAVE_MAX_PENDING_MUTATIONS = 256`)
- Atomic persistence counter prevents double-saves (lines 847-849)

#### Concurrency Safety ✅

**Thread Safety**:
- `SessionHandle` uses Arc<Mutex<Session>> (line 280)
- File-level locking prevents corruption (SessionPersistenceLockGuard)
- Parallel JSONL parsing with proper error aggregation (lines 4299-4335)
- Background autosave with proper cancellation handling

**Persistence Integrity**:
- Write-behind autosave prevents blocking UI
- Full rewrite vs incremental append based on checkpoint interval
- V2 sidecar compatibility for session format migration
- Proper cleanup on failed operations

#### Potential Issues Found: MINOR

**1. Clone Implementation Safety** (lines 867-898):
- `persisted_entry_count` Arc is deliberately deep-copied to prevent value desync
- **Assessment**: This is correct defensive programming, not a bug

**2. Thread Pool Management** (line 4262):
- `available_parallelism().map_or(4, |n| n.get().min(8))`
- **Assessment**: Reasonable bounds, but could be configurable for low-memory systems

**3. Panic Recovery in Parallel Parsing** (lines 4326-4342):
- Complex panic message extraction logic
- **Assessment**: Proper but verbose - could be simplified

#### Performance Analysis ✅

**Optimizations**:
- Linear session optimization (`is_linear` flag) for 99% case
- O(1) entry lookup via HashMap index
- Cached message count to avoid O(n) scans
- Incremental append mode to avoid full rewrites

**Resource Management**:
- Configurable durability modes (Strict/Balanced/Throughput)
- Bounded autosave queue with coalescing
- Background persistence to avoid blocking

#### Recommendations

1. **Consider**: Configurable thread pool size for resource-constrained environments
2. **Minor**: Simplify panic message extraction in parallel parsing
3. **Documentation**: The V2 compatibility logic is complex and could use more inline docs

Overall assessment: **Very well-implemented** with comprehensive safety measures.

2. Message queue processing (steering vs follow-up delivery)
3. Provider streaming with abort signal handling
4. Tool execution with parallel dispatch 
5. Error recovery and graceful degradation

**Concurrency Controls**:
- `MAX_CONCURRENT_TOOLS: usize = 8` - reasonable DoS protection
