    Contributes the AI session API to the external API server:

    • GET /api/ai/sessions lists all sessions (restored and persisted) with id, title, status, agent, workspace, last interaction time, and a short plain-text preview of the conversation.
    • POST /api/ai/sessions creates a session in a frontend matching the requested workspace, optionally pinning an agent and sending an initial prompt.
    • GET /api/ai/sessions/events streams the session list as server-sent events, pushing an updated list whenever sessions change.
    • GET /api/ai/sessions/:id returns a single session including its conversation reduced to plain-text messages (persisted sessions report metadata only until restored).
    • POST /api/ai/sessions/:id/open shows the session in the chat view of a connected frontend.
    • POST /api/ai/sessions/:id/restore restores a persisted session and returns its detail.
    • POST /api/ai/sessions/:id/prompt sends a prompt to the session.

    The endpoints are served on the external API port and are token-protected when an external API token is configured (see @theia/external-api).

    path: "/api/ai/sessions" = AI_SESSIONS_API_PATH

    Absolute path under which this contribution's routes are mounted, e.g. /api/ai/sessions. The server imposes no path conventions, but each contribution answers all requests below its path, so contribution paths must not nest: a contribution whose path nests with the path of another contribution is skipped with a warning. With samePort delivery the path also must not nest with one of Theia's own routes on the main server, as it would shadow them; the server cannot detect that case.
