Files

• scripts/server.py - ThreadingHTTPServer, serves static files + API routes, SSE streaming
• scripts/ai_gateway.py - AI Gateway client: query, parallel query, streaming, synthesis, anonymous voting
• scripts/static/index.html - Dashboard UI (HappyCapy design system, light/dark theme)
• scripts/static/app.js - Client-side logic (model selector, SSE parsing, markdown rendering, voting UI)

API

Key Details

• Server uses ThreadingHTTPServer for concurrent request handling
• Vote endpoint streams SSE keepalive pings every 5s to prevent proxy timeouts (Cloudflare 524)
• Static files served with Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache headers
• Script tag uses cache-busting version param: app.js?v=... (bump when editing app.js)
• Model IDs use dots not hyphens: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.5 (not claude-sonnet-4-5)
