 no recent input activity for at least this duration before LLM calls (both chat
 and provider-native paths). Added unit test `TestCompletionDebounce_WaitsUntilQuiet`.

+Status: Done — added `completion_throttle_ms` (default 0/disabled). Server
+serializes LLM calls to maintain a minimum spacing across both chat and
+provider-native completion paths. Added unit test
+`TestCompletionThrottle_SerializesCalls`.
 
 Phase 4: I think this is already implemented, verify: Filter incomplete triggers: Avoid sending requests for short or non-meaningful prefixes (e.g., less than 2–3 characters). This reduces noise and unnecessary LLM calls.
 
+Status: Verified — `prefixHeuristicAllows` enforces a minimal prefix length
+unless there is an inline prompt or structural trigger (., :, /, _, )). Manual
+invoke may be constrained by `manual_invoke_min_prefix` (default 0). Existing
+tests cover prefix handling.
+
 Phase 5: I think this is already implemented, verify: Server-side caching: Cache recent completions keyed by prefix and file context. This avoids recomputation for repeated or similar queries.
+
+Status: Verified — small LRU cache (~10) implemented (keyed by URI, position,
+left/right text, and context). Tests exist in `completion_cache_test.go`.
