Verifying browser-visible plugin CSS needs a rebuild build:web does not
perform: WorkspaceBrowser.module.css never reaches apps/web/dist, because
ui-workspace loads as a runtime plugin with its CSS inlined into
lib/client.js by that package's own bundle script. A negative control that
reruns only build:web exercises a stale bundle and passes with the
declaration removed, which reads as a vacuous test rather than an invalid
control. No script in the web lane does this rebuild, so every scroll-region
or plugin-CSS change hits the same trap.
Agent Note for the two changes: what the session log showed, what ordering
can and cannot fix (measured, correcting the first diagnosis), why the page
is sampled only past the cap, why `list` is needed alongside it, and the
alternatives each one beat.
Tool row summaries strip the session workspace root; the running sweep
becomes a glare-band overlay (deepsuite ShimmerText pattern); assistant
nodes that render nothing no longer split tool-row groups; block and
tool-row spacing collapse to one 16px rhythm.
Asked what a workspace contained, an agent described one subfolder as the
whole project. `glob {"pattern": "*"}` matched 10030 paths across 22
top-level entries and the inline page was the first 100 of them, all under a
single unpacked archive.
Three properties compose into that page: a pattern with no `/` matches
basenames at any depth, so `*` means the whole tree rather than its top
level; `--sort=modified` orders oldest first, and unpacking an archive
restores timestamps that predate everything the user wrote; and the page was
the head of that order. Each is defensible alone, and together they make the
most ordinary request an agent receives produce a confident wrong answer.
A result within `globMaxResults` is unchanged — shown whole, in
modification-time order. Beyond it the page is filled round-robin across the
complete result's top-level entries, so one subtree cannot own every slot,
and the footer states that the page was sampled rather than taken in
modification-time order. Measured on a 24-entry, 716-file reproduction, the
head of 100 reaches 7 top-level names and the sampled page reaches 21. The
spill artifact still holds the complete sorted list.
The guidance and schema stop steering away from `ls`, state the any-depth
pattern rule, say results are files and never directories, and point at
`list` for a directory's contents.
`ctx.fs.listDir` has shipped since the filesystem seam gained it, with skill
discovery as its only consumer; the model-facing tool was deferred to a
separate decision. Nothing else could answer "what is in this directory":
`rg --files` backs glob and grep and never emits a directory entry, so an
empty directory is invisible, no output says which names are directories,
and no output gives an entry count.
`list` takes an optional `path`, defaulting to the session workspace so the
common question needs no argument, and returns the direct children of one
directory with their type. Two presentation rules carry it: directories sort
first, then files, then non-regular children, each alphabetically — so
truncation loses leaves rather than the tree — and the footer always states
the complete listing's size and composition, so a capped view can never read
as a whole directory.
It emits no `fs/observed`: seeing a filename is not reading a file, and a
listing must never satisfy the read-before-write gate.
Lint: eslint --fix over the merge-crossed projection/command files (arrow
parens, trailing commas, unnecessary assertions), Extract<> replaces the
keyof-map & string intersections no-redundant-type-constituents rejects,
the fold-adapter's merge loop drops its non-null assertions for a
bounds-carrying cursor, one JSDoc line wrapped under max-len (api-catalog
regenerated). Snapshots: the four TUI goldens re-recorded for the merged
event-count shift (the durable command lifecycle adds one event to the
seeded diagnostics log). The headless advanced-toolchain snapshot passes
on CI and fails locally in this sandbox both with and without these
changes (30s child timeout — environment-bound, tracked in the ledger).
Every scaffold-importing e2e compiles on the host plane, so the new file
goes in tsconfig.host.json's include list and apps/web/tsconfig.json's
exclude list. Without both, tsc -p apps/web/tsconfig.json fails with
TS6059/TS6307.
design-platform.css declared four --dsw-alias-scrollbar-* tokens in both
palettes that no rule read, so every scrolling region rendered the user
agent's own scrollbar and the dark theme showed a light native bar against
dark surfaces.
The symptom that surfaced the gap was in the sidebar: the workspace
browser's session list is its only scrolling region, and each row's
trailing content (the relative timestamp, and the hover action buttons
that replace it) is `flex: none` flush against the row's 8px right
padding, so an overlaid scrollbar painted on top of the timestamp.
ui-theme/styles/scrollbar.css becomes the sole consumer of the four
tokens, imported by the web shell's base.css after design-platform.css
because it reads that sheet's tokens. The rules sit on `body`, not
`html`: the alias tokens are declared on `body`, custom properties
inherit only downward, and from `html` they resolve to the
guaranteed-invalid value with scrollbar-color computing to `auto`.
scrollbar-width and scrollbar-color are declared on `body, body *` rather
than inherited, because inheritance would carry the color already
substituted at `body` and an elevated surface could not retint its own
thumb; scrollbar-width does not inherit at all.
Both the standard properties and the ::-webkit-scrollbar pseudo-elements
read one indirection pair bound to the l1 tokens, so an elevated surface
rebinds that pair to the l2 tokens once and retints both renderings. The
command popup, slash menu, model-select panel, and settings panel do so,
which gives the l2 tokens their first consumers.
WorkspaceBrowser's `.list` declares scrollbar-gutter: stable, keeping the
bar beside the rows. `stable` rather than `auto` so the reservation holds
when the list is short enough not to scroll: expanding a workspace group
would otherwise shift every row sideways at the moment it starts
scrolling.
The master merge left the generated catalogs/module graph stale, the
python runtime closure missing dsh-session-projection (now reached
through session-title and tool-todo), and apiproxy holding a dead
session-title dependency (the bespoke title frame is retired). The four
files the merge pushed under the per-file coverage floor (commands
executor + invariant, projection registry drive tails, TUI) join the
existing TODO(gui) deferral block per the GUI-lane policy; the remaining
coverage-run failures reproduce identically on pure origin/master
(environment-bound suites: sdk process exit, TUI PTY timing, workflow
worker timing, title loader slow-boot) and are not this branch's debt.
The master merge brought the session.models/selectModel contract paragraph
and re-introduced the todos-rider description this branch had retired;
session-level projections ride the generic projections block. Chinese side
synced, pairing re-recorded.
