telemetry migration hook

Acceptance Criteria

  • Capture hook sends per-turn token usage from transcript
  • Turn usage attributed once, parallel siblings stay zero
  • Span and action rows show real tokens and cost

Expected Test Plan

  • [unit] hook parses message.usage + message.id into tokens_in/out + usage_ref
  • [unit] capture zeroes usage on a duplicate usage_ref (turn counted once)
  • [integration] POST atomic_actions persists tokens/cost; sibling action zeroed

Checks Run

No completed checks recorded.

Agent Context

The PostToolUse hook (bin/atomic-capture-hook) already reads message.model from the transcript tail but never message.usage, and the capture endpoint doesnt permit tokens/cost, so AtomicAction rows land with tokens_in/out=0, cost=0 -> heartbeat span roll-up shows blank tokens/cost while model populates. Fix: hook also reads message.usage (+ message.id as usage_ref) from the same assistant line and sends tokens_in/tokens_out; controller permits tokens_in/tokens_out/cost/usage_ref; AtomicAction.capture dedupes by usage_ref so one assistant turn (which can fan out parallel tool calls) is counted ONCE (first action of the turn keeps usage, siblings zeroed) -> no double counting. Cost derived server-side from model price table. No view change: _event_table already rolls up totals.

Stage Timeline

Who handled each stage, the time it took (measured), and the model / tokens / cost reported (best-effort) — plus who's on it right now. — means the agent didn't report that metric.
