Subject: [PATCH 01/13] feat(local): render OTel semantic attributes in
 transaction output

Port trace-semantic-display from sentry-mcp (PR #981) to enrich
sentry local tail output with OTel semantic attribute rendering.

Transactions with GenAI, MCP, HTTP, database, and other OTel attributes
now show rich labels instead of generic op + transaction name:

  [gen_ai] chat anthropic/claude-4-sonnet [1200ms] [5 spans]
  [mcp] tools/call search_files [320ms]
  [db] SELECT users [postgresql] [12ms]

The semantic display module covers 15 attribute families: GenAI, MCP,
HTTP, database, GraphQL, RPC/cloud, messaging, FaaS, object stores,
CloudEvents, CICD, feature flags, process, exception, and error types.

Falls back to existing behavior when no semantic attributes are present.

Subject: [PATCH 04/13] fix: tag S3 spans as s3 instead of rpc in
 inferSemanticOp

S3 spans carry rpc.method/rpc.service attributes alongside aws.s3.*
attributes. Check for S3 before RPC so the op tag shows [s3] instead
of [rpc] for object store operations. Addresses Sentry Seer review.

Subject: [PATCH 05/13] feat(local): address remaining important gaps

- Deduplicate parsePort: export from server.ts, import in run.ts
- Fix signal handler leak in run.ts: store refs, remove in finally,
  add settled flag to prevent close/error race
- Add SSE reconnection with exponential backoff and Last-Event-ID
  resume support in the SSE consumer
- Add --format json flag for NDJSON output (machine-readable output
  for AI coding agents and automation tools)
- Preserve existing SENTRY_TRACES_SAMPLE_RATE (use ?? fallback)
- Add agent monitoring section to docs with gen_ai/mcp examples
- Add JSON output section to docs
- Add server.test.ts: parsePort, feedSSELine (with id tracking),
  buildApp (health, ingest, CORS, SSE, 413 rejection), isServerRunning
- Expand run.test.ts: -- separator stripping, ENOENT handling,
  SENTRY_TRACES_SAMPLE_RATE preservation

+
+GenAI operations show the model name, MCP tool calls show the tool being invoked, and database queries show the system and query summary. This works automatically when your Sentry SDK is configured with AI/LLM integrations.
+
+## JSON output
+
+Use `--format json` (or `-F json`) for machine-readable NDJSON output, one JSON object per envelope item:
+
+```bash
+sentry local --format json
+```
+
+```json
+{"type":"transaction","timestamp":1700000001,"op":"gen_ai","label":"chat anthropic/claude-4-sonnet","duration_ms":1200,"span_count":5,"source":"server"}
+{"type":"error","timestamp":1700000002,"error_type":"RateLimitError","message":"API quota exceeded","source":"server"}
+{"type":"log","timestamp":1700000003,"level":"info","message":"User logged in","attributes":{"user_id":1234},"source":"server"}
+```
+
+This is useful for AI coding agents and automation tools that need to consume Sentry events programmatically.

Subject: [PATCH 07/13] fix: reset SSE retry counter on successful
 reconnection, remove duplicate code

- Reset retries and backoff delay after a successful connection that
  later drops, so transient disconnects don't exhaust the retry budget
- Distinguish 'connected-then-lost' from 'error' in attemptSSEConnection
- Remove duplicate unreachable code blocks in inferSemanticOp
  (biome format artifact)

Subject: [PATCH 09/13] fix: address final review findings + add nice-to-haves

Review fixes:
- Add stack frame info (filename, lineno, colno, function) to JSON
  error output for AI agent consumption
- Add JSDoc to formatItemJson documenting sanitize design decision
- Fix docs: SENTRY_TRACES_SAMPLE_RATE is '1 (unless already set)'
- Fix ENOENT test to assert error message pattern, not just defined
- Add comprehensive JSON format tests (error, transaction, log, source)

Nice-to-haves:
- Add startup banner with ingest URL, SSE endpoint, and connection hints
- Add --filter ai to match transactions with GenAI/MCP OTel attributes

Subject: [PATCH 11/13] fix: strip BiDi chars in JSON output, fix initial SSE
 retry logic
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Security:
- Add stripBidi() for JSON output — JSON.stringify escapes C0/C1 but
  leaves Unicode BiDi override chars (U+202A-202E, U+2066-2069) intact,
  which can reorder terminal text. JSON formatters now call stripBidi()
  on all user-controlled string values.
- Extract BIDI_RE regex to module level, shared by sanitize() and stripBidi()

SSE reconnection:
- On first attempt, both 'no-connection' and 'error' are now fatal
  (server doesn't exist). Only retry after a previous successful
  connection (hasConnectedBefore).

Subject: [PATCH 12/13] fix: track SSE connection state via onConnected
 callback

Mid-stream errors (network reset, proxy timeout) now correctly
report as 'connected-then-lost' instead of 'no-connection', enabling
the reconnection loop. The onConnected callback fires as soon as
the HTTP 200 response is received, before the stream read loop.

Subject: [PATCH 13/13] fix: strip C1 control chars in JSON output alongside
 BiDi

JSON.stringify only escapes C0 (U+0000-U+001F) per RFC 8259; C1
controls (U+0080-U+009F, e.g. CSI=U+009B) pass through unescaped.
stripBidi() now removes both C1 and BiDi chars, preventing terminal
injection when --format json output is displayed in a terminal.
