Why: A rejected result-reference request could discard the user text or uploads after the composer cleared.
Evidence: 286 frontend tests, TypeScript and the unchanged unused-export gate pass; mixed-input browser regression preserves the draft.
Impact: Validate incompatible inputs before clearing, retain failed pending input with its request identity, and require explicit retry while other messages can continue.
Refs: feature/workbench-flow-completion review frontend-races finding
Why: Repeated progress and coupled scrolling obscured chat, and task choices lacked a reliable independent interaction path.
Evidence: 285 frontend unit tests and 23 browser scenarios pass locally before the shared event-loader extraction; final combination checks follow in Dev.
Impact: Coalesce cumulative progress, retain execution records, show timestamps and quiet notifications, support versioned work actions and explicit result references without automatic chat backfill.
Refs: feature/workbench-flow-completion
Why: the duties tab only listed existing documents — rdm.docs.instantiate
had no UI entry, so a fresh project showed an empty duties tab with no
setup path (owner trial feedback 2026-10-15).
Evidence: new docs-instantiate-params tests green; full vitest run shows
only the 12 pre-existing conversation-work failures also present at clean
HEAD; design-guard green.
Impact: duties tab gains a template picker + title input wired to
rdm.docs.instantiate (backend command rdm.docs.templates lists published
identities); instantiation refreshes the catalog and selects the new doc.
Refs: Agent-System-RDM docs/records/dhf/u4-header-footer-slots.md
Why: Event replay could hide saved retry notes and leave completed cards outside the active work filter.
Evidence: 270 frontend unit tests, build, and 14 isolated browser scenarios.
Impact: Merge replay into saved history, retain child progress, and locate cards under the right scope.
Refs: Agent-System-Dev feature/work-companion-visibility UI1 UI2
Why: Fast and slow channel cards duplicate across panes and completed replies hide process output.
Evidence: npm test; npm run build; 12 isolated Playwright scenarios with reload and responsive widths.
Impact: Preserve ordered folded process history, load durable run events, and give work cards one detailed pane.
Refs: Agent-System-Dev feature/work-companion-visibility UI1 UI2 UI3
Why: Complete the authorized export entry while preserving current main project and session behavior.
Evidence: SELF full frontend tests and build, 263 unit tests; deferred browser races reproduced then all 6 passed. Raw records stay outside source until Dev task closure.
Impact: Export callbacks are invalidated on project, identity and unmount changes. Command readiness and current main security paths remain intact.
Refs: Dev PR #488; Frontend PR #73; user takeover authorization on 2026-10-14
Why:
Fresh documents had no first-submit action, reading active duties opened
confirmation dialogs, and delayed detail or status queries could overwrite
another selection and send its document ID with the wrong duty draft.
Evidence:
SELF real-browser regressions observed the missing action, render-time
dialogs, detail/status races, and a follow-up query after panel unmount.
Five focused Playwright scenarios passed after the fix, together with the
full npm test, npm run build, and git diff --check commands. Receipts:
/tmp/project-member-duties-browser-green-20261013.json and
/tmp/project-member-duties-full-build-green-20261013.json.
Impact:
Offer first submission independently of an existing review round. Ask for
invalidation only on a dirty save click. Guard queries and continuations
with project lifetime, selection, and request sequences; keep the existing
Picker, canonical project routing, controls, and UI tokens.
Refs:
Dev project-member-access Task 4; independent synchronized Frontend P2 review
Why: Current main supplies member pickers and duty catalogs that must keep verified project identity.
Evidence: Frontend 259 tests and build pass after resolving panel conflicts; final canonical set-role dispatch and fixed combo checks follow.
Impact: Preserve upstream panels with canonical project commands and read-versus-work state guards.
Refs: feature/project-member-access; origin/main c294835
Why:
Project readiness is a write gate. Applying it to member, permission, and
document status queries hides history that the backend intentionally keeps
readable after archival or closure.
Evidence:
SELF archived and closed read regressions failed before the fix. Full npm
test, npm run build, and git diff --check passed with the amended code.
Receipts: /tmp/project-member-frontend-archived-read-red-20261013.json and
/tmp/project-member-frontend-archived-read-green-20261013.json.
Impact:
Resolve canonical project IDs separately from command readiness. Preserve
known read commands and existing settings tabs for historical projects;
keep mutations and new work blocked with existing disabled controls.
Server authorization remains authoritative.
Refs:
Dev project-member-access Task 4; independent Frontend review P2
Why:
Project members need RDM commands to address the registered domain project.
Failed project states and responses from a previous account must not create
work, report a rejected mutation as successful, or restore private content.
Evidence:
SELF npm test: 32 files and 251 tests passed, including project command,
mutation rejection, archived history, and delayed account response coverage.
SELF npm run build and git diff --check passed. Original regressions were
observed before implementation; root owns composition and independent replay.
Impact:
Keep host IDs for conversation and base settings APIs; send the decorated
domain ID to RDM project commands. Reuse existing sidebar, settings and toast
states. Reset identity projections and invalidate old asynchronous responses.
No deployment, database change, push, merge, or workspace cleanup.
Refs:
Dev feature-project-member-access task card and implementation plan Task 4
Why: The 2026-10-13 login contract makes username/password the default
login, replaces the browser ask_ tab with a one-time recovery key
entry, requires the forced set-password gate to drop the current
password field, and routes admin password recovery through admin-issued
login keys instead of direct password resets.
Evidence: vitest 218 passed, npm run build OK, check-knip 43<=43,
design-guard green (SELF, local run in task worktree).
Impact: LoginPage gains a redeem-only key tab (no key persistence);
ChangePasswordGate shows server-confirmed owner plus new/confirm only
and returns to the login page after success (reloginRequired); App
gates on sessionScope=set_password_only; UsersPanel replaces reset
password with issue/revoke login key UI showing plaintext once.
Refs: Dev task feature/svc-login-recovery-flow; backend companion
commit 467718a.
Why: when rdm.role.list is rejected (e.g. the operator lost the RDM
domain-admin ledger to an acceptance bootstrap), the roles table spun on
'加载中…' forever and the banner dumped the raw 400 receipt JSON.
Evidence: vitest test/rdmroles-reject.test.ts (SELF, run below); manual
repro on 8788 dev 2026-10-13 before the ledger fix.
Impact: placeholder row comes from rolesListPlaceholder (failure row when
a fetch rejected), domain-admin denials map via describeRoleListError to
a readable message naming the rdm.perm.transfer channel; other errors
pass through. No style tokens touched (design-guard clean).
Refs: Dev task feature/rdm-admin-lockout-recovery (R3)
Why: Ordinary explanations were folded with tool activity and the oldest result was selected as current work.
Evidence: Findings #5/#6 red-to-green actual-component and live-projection checks are retained; current full Frontend suite passes 210 cases.
Impact: Preserve business text, errors and file references in reading order; retain active/pinned priorities and newest-first host ordering.
Refs: ce-code-review 20261012-165912-cb241b46 #5/#6, UI03/UI05
Why: make material, background work, confirmations and files accessible to nontechnical users across desktop and mobile.
Evidence: Dev SELF receipts for Frontend tsc, 190 tests, knip baseline, build, nine fixture browser cases and two real HTTP/browser smoke cases using MockRunner.
Impact: existing API and permissions remain authoritative; stale events/queries and duplicate effects are guarded, while one file preview and reading state are preserved.
Refs: work-companion-ui design r0.2 and plan r1 U2-U5; UI01-UI13.
Why: auditors need to generate and download a watermarked report from the overview, and that must not appear when the export commands are off or change whether the workspace itself opens.
Evidence: SELF npm test, 138 passed. Playwright download case is in e2e/rdm-audit.playwright.ts and runs under scripts/e2e.sh.
Impact: the overview shows type, generate, draft confirmation, watermark, sha256, expiry, and download only when the three export commands are enabled.

Why: GET .../surfaces returns SurfaceMeta without identity; writing it into
surfaces let PreviewPane crash on x.identity.surfaceId after refresh.
Evidence: npx vitest run (118 passed), including surfaceKey.test.ts
Impact: openConversation fetches SurfaceSnapshot via surfaceGet; find paths
use surfaceKey; Meta no longer enters the surfaces projection

Why: When a slow-lane progress card is active, hide the plan/todos
CurrentTaskCard so the work column has one authoritative task object.
Evidence: npx vitest run (workbench-progress + full suite)
Impact: Workbench work tab; tidyCards skips done+danger failures.
Refs: fast-slow-channel-display-u1-plan W4
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Why: the change-password modal rendered loose password inputs outside any
<form> with no autocomplete or username association (browser password-form
warnings; Enter did not submit), and its 401 handling collapsed every
cause into "wrong current password". SettingInput masked ALL free-text
config values as password fields.
Evidence: vitest 24 files / 116 tests incl. new settingInputAttrs matrix;
knip and tsc -b && vite build pass; e2e changepw-form spec (driven by the
dev-repo e2e.sh plain phase) covers form submit via Enter, autocomplete
trio, readonly username and the classified error copy.
Impact: ChangePasswordModal uses form onSubmit, htmlFor/id association,
username/current-password/new-password autocomplete and reuses
humanChangePasswordError; SettingInput renders text inputs unless the
field is secret.
Refs: 2026-10-12 diagnostic report, increment 3.
Why: dev-repo main advanced the frontend pin to d01a3eb (admin-zone
section hosting), diverging from the gating branch; the task-sync gitlink
conflict requires the component-level merge first.
Evidence: post-merge vitest 23 files / 112 tests, knip 42 <= 43, and
tsc -b && vite build all pass; store.ts conflict resolved by keeping both
rdmAuditAvailable and adminSections state.
Impact: gating branch now contains frontend main d01a3eb.
Refs: 2026-10-12 diagnostic report, increment 2; frontend #63/#64.
Why: the rdm-audit entry was an unconditional builtin, so on a plain base
without any rdm.inspect.* commands the workspace opened straight into a
rejected receipt (400) - diagnosed 2026-10-12. The page also rendered raw
receipt JSON instead of a readable error.
Evidence: vitest 23 files / 112 tests pass incl. the new contract matrix
(workspaces.test.ts, rdm-errors.test.ts) and design-guard; tsc -b &&
vite build pass; e2e plain-base scenario added (driven by dev-repo
scripts/e2e.sh phase 4).
Impact: audit entry shows only when GET /api/commands lists all seven
rdm.inspect.* commands enabled (store.rdmAuditAvailable, refreshed with
the workspace list); audit errors classify into capability-missing /
auth-expired / query-failed with the raw receipt kept in a Collapsible.
Refs: 2026-10-12 diagnostic report, increment 2.
Why: src/contracts.ts is fully regenerated from Core by make contracts;
the hand-added interface there is deleted on every sync (surfaced as a
dirty tree in the Dev composite test run).
Evidence: npx vitest run 101/101, tsc --noEmit clean, knip 42 <= 43;
Dev composite CI is authoritative.
Impact: AdminZoneSection now lives in api.ts (backend-only endpoint
type, matching existing local-type precedent); contracts.ts restored to
the generated mirror; imports updated in store and AdminZone.
Refs: WP3-I3; follows Frontend PR #63.
Why: KTD4 requires the RDM audit partition to be reachable from the admin
zone by RDM domain admins and base superadmins, without hardcoding RDM
into the base AdminZone or merging roles in the frontend.
Evidence: npx vitest run 101/101 green (incl. design-guard), tsc --noEmit
clean, knip 42 <= 43; Dev composite CI is authoritative.
Impact: AdminZone merges admin-only builtin sections with sections
declared by compiled plugins (GET /api/admin-zone/sections, loaded in
refreshPlugins); the entry menu shows when isAdmin OR declared sections
exist; declared sections render via an id-keyed builtin component map
(rdm.audit -> RdmAuditWorkspace) with a version-mismatch placeholder for
unknown ids; unknown icons fall back to the generic grid icon. Token and
color usage unchanged.
Refs: WP3-I3/KTD4; task card feature-adminzone-plugin-sections.
Why: U6 brings generated pages into the work view - a compact
task-page section renders the latest conversation surface under the
current-task card (SurfaceView), a pin freezes the shown page against
new arrivals (unpin follows latest), a jump button opens the full
preview, and the project-level aggregate loads on conversation open
for cross-session visibility; when the plugin is disabled or no pages
exist the section disappears and the work view is untouched.
Evidence: tsc clean; vitest 101/101 including the pin/follow test;
knip unchanged.
Impact: Frontend-only; consumes the U6 backend aggregate endpoint.
Refs: proposal r2 U6; Backend #163; Dev task feature/generative-ui-u6
Why: /api/plugins now merges compiled-in plugins (backend.mode=inproc);
the list needed to badge them as builtin, count their commands, and stop
printing a dangling "v" when the synthesized manifest has no version.
Evidence: npx vitest run 100/100 green incl. design-guard; tsc --noEmit
clean for src (../ui errors are the symlinked-deps environment only);
CI (make test) is authoritative.
Impact: PluginsSection label hides empty versions, desc adds a command
count and falls back to manifest intent counts, and inproc entries get a
"内置" badge next to the api badge. No token or color changes.
Refs: WP3-I4; task card feature-plugins-compiled-listing.
Why: rdm.inspect.tree docs is two-level (parent=<docId> returns sections), but the U4 workspace only fetched level one - the tree showed bare documents, clicking a doc hit unsupported inspect.object kind, and the trace tab always showed no sections.
Evidence: tsc + design-guard green; scripts/e2e.sh full run in this task.
Impact: tree browsing expands documents into sections; trace entry lists sections aggregated per document.
Refs: U4/U3 read-service contract; task feature/rdm-e2e-acceptance.
Why: A single run re-registering one deliverable left three identical
report files side by side (storage is append-only by design and the
prompt even teaches revisions-as-new-versions); the panel listed every
row. Per the owner ruling, storage keeps all versions - the panel now
groups by name, shows only the latest row, badges multi-version groups
with the count, and expands (Collapsible primitive) to list history
with per-version preview/download.
Evidence: tsc clean; vitest 99/99 including new grouping tests (latest
selection by updatedAt, ordering, cross-name independence, empty);
knip unchanged.
Impact: Frontend-only display logic; no storage, API, or prompt
changes.
Refs: Dev task fix/artifact-version-dedupe
Why: Field evidence - surfaces arrived and tabs opened in state but the
screen showed nothing: the event branch missed syncFilesEntry (right
panel stayed on work tab, collapsed, or list view), refresh/reentry had
no way back (openSurface was dead code), and the files panel listed no
pages.
Evidence: tsc clean; vitest 97/97 including new cases (event switches
rightTab=files + preview view; suppressed path keeps projection
consistent); knip unchanged.
Impact: Frontend-only behavior fixes; no API changes.
Refs: Dev task fix/genui-page-visibility
Why: U5 (#367) introduced a two-parameter callback but SurfaceView (@ui) expects (id: string) => void; TypeScript build fails on main.
Evidence: SELF tsc --noEmit zero errors after fix.
Impact: PreviewPane.tsx one-line type fix; no behavior change (payload path dormant until @ui widens the interface).
Refs: Dev #367
Why: U5 closes the interactive loop - the surface view's action click
carries the user's typed drafts (and nothing else - unsubmitted input
has no upload path), the store builds the idempotent request
(client-generated requestId, current revision), guards double-clicks
in flight, and maps server outcomes to toasts (awaiting-confirm card,
revision conflict refresh, disabled rejection).
Evidence: tsc clean; vitest 95/95 including the request-shape test
(explicit data only, unique requestId per submission); knip unchanged.
Impact: Frontend-only; backend endpoint from the U5 backend branch.
Refs: U5 action-scope r2 (approved); UI PRs #46/#47; Dev task
feature/generative-ui-u5
Why: the master plan U4 requires a four-entry traceability audit workspace as a builtin Dev frontend workspace; U3 rdm.inspect.* commands are the server contract.
Evidence: SELF tsc --noEmit zero errors in new files; design guard compliance verified (tokens only, no raw colors, no inline fontSize, no details element); CI (GATE) will run full suite.
Impact: RdmAuditWorkspace.tsx (new, ~500 lines), api.ts (+rdmCommand), Workspaces.tsx (+rdm-audit dispatch), workspaces.ts (+builtin), styles.css (+rdm-audit-* using only @ui tokens).
Refs: Documents eb36571 master plan U4; U3 rdm.inspect.* contract
Why: the auth middleware prefers Bearer keys over the session cookie, so a stale key left in localStorage shadows valid cookie sessions and every request after password login returns 401 (observed at http://192.168.3.2:8788 on 2026-10-11).
Evidence: modules/frontend vitest 19 files / 88 tests green; auth.test.ts covers beginSession clearing the stored Bearer before any fetch.
Impact: password logins switch to the HttpOnly cookie session cleanly; API-key logins unchanged.
Refs: task card feature-login-clear-stale-key in Agent-System-Dev.
Why: entering the forced-change gate with an API-key credential always
fails 401 (passwords are session-owned), and the gate mapped every 401
to "Incorrect username or password", masking the real reason and hiding
the self-service exit; admins got locked out before reaching user
management.
Evidence: npx vitest run green (20 files / 93 tests incl. new
test/loginpage.test.ts); tsc -b and check-knip green.
Impact: App boot routes key+mustChange to the login page (key cleared);
the API-key tab advises password login for must-change accounts; the
gate maps backend error strings to distinct actionable messages; api.me
type gains authVia.
Refs: Dev task feature/admin-auth-gate-fix.
Why: U4 read-only experience - surface.updated events project into a
surfaces slice with a strict revision guard (stale/duplicate events
never overwrite; server snapshot is the single owner), preview tabs
gain a surface: kind that renders SurfaceView (doc-refs bridge into
artifact previews), a new page auto-opens a tab without stealing the
user's active non-surface tab, and opening a conversation reloads the
authoritative surface list so refresh/断线 restores pages.
Evidence: tsc clean; vitest 87/87 including new surface projection
tests (stale/duplicate/multi-surface); UI SurfaceView suite green in
its repo.
Impact: Frontend-only; no backend or contract changes.
Refs: Core PRs #27/#28; UI PRs #42/#43/#44; Dev task
feature/generative-ui-u4
Why: Removing the artifacts builtin shifts the shortcut ranking, so the
workspaces tests now expect agents at cmd-1; Workbench no longer selects
previewOpen in its outer scope (FilesTab owns that read).
Evidence: npx vitest run 85/85 passed; npm run build (tsc -b && vite
build) passed in the task worktree (SELF).
Impact: test/workspaces.test.ts expectations; Workbench.tsx selector
cleanup. No behavior change beyond the committed layout rework.
Why: The three-column workbench redesign converges entries and hierarchy:
project switching tops the left rail (identity shown once), sessions and
search stay centered, files/workspaces/account sink to the bottom. The
right column becomes a Work/Files third column that absorbs the preview
pane, which is no longer an independent fourth region; the artifacts
workspace overlay folds into the Files entry, and stop control
consolidates into the input area with a light fast/slow-lane status hint.
Evidence: make test-frontend NOT_RUN at commit time; the run and its
outcome are recorded in the Dev task card before integration.
Impact: App.tsx layout and divider width tiers (work 280-560, files with
open preview 420-1100); store UI state rightTab work/files plus filesView
with syncFilesEntry replacing syncPreviewRail; Workbench dual entry;
PreviewPane gains a back-to-list control; TaskSidebar project switcher;
TopBar drops project identity; Conversation drops the header stop button
and gains the input status line; workspaces.ts drops the artifacts builtin.
Refs: three-column workbench proposal (2026-10-11), DESIGN.md 6/9.3
revision follows in the Dev repo.
Why: reproduced with headless Chromium - clicking an artifact row with no
conversation selected closed the workspace overlay and nothing else appeared.
requestPreview stores tabs under currentConvId ?? '_' while the render side
required a non-null currentConvId, so the preview pane never mounted in the
empty state. The empty state was itself a trap: currentConvId was not
persisted, so every reload landed there.
Evidence: vitest 85/85 (new preview-empty-state tests for the key contract
and orphan-tab merge); browser replay on the fixed build shows the preview
pane mounting with rendered docx content from the empty state and the
conversation restoring after reload (screenshots in the Dev task card).
Impact: previewTabsKey() unifies the read/write key; entering a conversation
adopts orphan '_' tabs; the last conversation id persists and restores once
on boot; deliverable cards toast when the artifact is gone instead of
silently doing nothing.
Refs: Dev task feature/empty-state-preview-fix; diagnosis session 2026-10-10.
Why: run.Usage now carries the WP6 split fields; the badge should show
them ('+last · cumulative · duration · tools', cache hits in the
tooltip).
Evidence: npx tsc --noEmit clean; npx vitest run 82/82 green.
Impact: display only.
Refs: Agent-System-Backend#96, N3 plan WP6
Why: The pane pinned .ui-fp to the column height, and the docx fit host then clipped overflow, so the right-hand preview could not scroll. The fullscreen DocViewer was a second shell around the same FilePreview.
Evidence: npx vitest run (17 files, 82 tests) and npx tsc --noEmit passed. Headless Chromium laid out a 1400px docx host inside a 764px pane (body scrollHeight 1400) and a pdf iframe that filled that pane.
Impact: .preview-pane-body is the scroll owner. Docx refit also watches page height. The overlay viewer is gone; expand/restore and text edit/save live on the pane.

Why: Headers, HITL details, tool lists, and status words used faint text, semantic colors were used as text, and the molv sidebar primary button matched the navy surface. There was no control for --ui-font-size.
Evidence: npx vitest run (17 files, 81 tests), npx tsc --noEmit, and knip unused exports 43 <= 43 passed in modules/frontend.
Impact: Content classes move to --text-dim or *-text. Sidebar active, focus, and the new-task button use the sidebar tokens. Settings gains 小/标准/大/特大, stored only in localStorage as ui.fontSize. Before: no font-size control and a 1:1 new-task button on molv. After: four local sizes and a light sidebar button.

Why: Keys must be added without writing masks back, and a turn needs copy, exclude, and regenerate without deleting history.
Evidence: npx tsc -b. Session notes and candidate switches call the new conversation and message routes.
Impact: Settings gains key, lore, and slash-template panels. Excluded messages stay visible and are dimmed.
