Handoff: CreatorTrack pages + AI + editor fix batch (2026-07-09)

Branch: feat/pages-ai-editor-fixes, MERGED to main 2026-07-09 (merge 8cfe007, pushed to origin). Migration 20260709T161011 APPLIED to prod DB lifeos. NOT yet deployed (prod still runs the old build; new columns have defaults so old code is unaffected). Deploy via scripts/forge_creatortrack_deploy.sh when ready. Worktree: /home/justinwieb/forge-suite-wt/feat/pages-ai-editor-fixes Preview: http://100.97.43.104:3063 (dev slot, DB clone ct_feat_pages_ai_editor_fixes) State: working tree clean, full tsc --noEmit clean, all commits pathspec-scoped.

What was built (by area)

Workspace identity

  • 2f27203 switcher seeds from server-resolved context; the literal "Workspace" flash is gone.
  • 4f4be20 email, rss, social, sales, cockpit, business, agents, campaigns (+ campaigns/email/[id]), clips moved under app/(suite)/[ws]/; bare paths are thin one-time redirects resolving the cookie once. URL now beats cookie per tab; verified live by loading /justin/sales while the cookie pointed at another workspace.
  • 60ddcbc useInstalledApps.mutate() stale-response guard (workspace token check).

Page customization

  • 1d23c05 Backspace/Delete removes the selected sticker (guards editable targets).
  • 89c7104 view-mode sticker gestures: 150ms hover outline (data-hover + CSS), 450ms long-press (10px tolerance) enters customize mode with that sticker selected. Quick clicks unchanged.
  • aeee1a8 GIF results in sticker web image search animate: animated flag on MediaResult, MediaThumb swaps thumb to original once in view (IntersectionObserver).
  • Painting bug: NOT reproducible; already fixed at HEAD by 299757a (useLivePageDesign subscription in PageDrawLayer). No change made.

AI chat: detached runs + collapsible thinking

  • Migration 20260709T161011_..._chat_messages_status_and_thinking.sql: app.chat_messages.status (running/done/error) + thinking jsonb. Applied to the slot DB only. Prod deploy does NOT run migrations; run this on lifeos before/at merge.
  • d9631f5 agent loop decoupled from req.signal (own AbortController, 10 min cap); client disconnect only stops SSE sends, run completes and persists.
  • b8329a0 assistant row inserted eagerly as running, updated throttled (~1s), finalized in finally.
  • 832a375 Anthropic extended thinking (4096 budget, 400-retry fallback), translate.ts replays thinking blocks before tool_use; openai-compat reasoning never promoted to answer.
  • 090534b ThinkingBlock disclosure in ChatThread (streams live, collapses to label like "Thought for 2s" or tool-derived, chevron expands), resume-polling in ChatContext, persists in history.
  • Verified live: curl killed mid-stream, DB row went running -> done with full 5.5k-char content; thinking round-trips through the conversations GET.

AI tools (pages/notes)

  • 50f4163 sanitizer allowlist admits validated data-entity anchors only (enum type + numeric id; adversarial inputs stripped, tested against real stored HTML).
  • f57b271 set_page_icon, set_page_banner (nodes.props.cover, same shape as node PATCH), create_page title optional with derivePageTitle() from first heading_1, insert_entity_link (wrap or append_after; hrefs built server-side via taskUrl/projectUrl//n/{id}; RLS-visibility checked). Notes share the nodes model so icon/banner/title tools cover them.
  • 86d42ea system prompt surfaces the new tools; verified live: icon+banner set via chat, H1 auto-title, and a full read_page -> 3x create_task -> 3x insert_entity_link chain producing real anchors in the page.

Text editing

  • b7a188f link dialog flakiness root cause fixed: inSurface() used instanceof HTMLElement, SVG icon clicks failed the check and the capture-phase mousedown tore the toolbar down. Now instanceof Element.
  • 37de3bd appActions prop on InlineToolbar renders one "App options" submenu (slashMenu/tbPanel pattern); Notes "Save as note" moved into it, standalone .kn-sel-save popup deleted. Extension point works for any app.
  • f9603b5 Ctrl+Y redo alias; Cmd/Ctrl+K opens the link picker on a live selection.

Review checklist for Justin (on :3063)

UI gestures were verified at code/API level but never live-clicked (shared Playwright browser was locked by other sessions all day): sticker hover/long-press/delete, link icon-glyph clicks, App options submenu placement, thinking block visuals, GIF animation in the picker, entity chip render+click. Everything else was verified live at HTTP/SQL/API level by the implementing agents.

Follow-ups logged (not attempted)

  1. Undo tie-break data-loss edge (BlockList.tsx:1127-1154): uncommitted keystrokes discarded on Ctrl+Z after a committed structural change.
  2. Consolidate InlineToolbar homegrown onDown with floating-ui useDismiss (two parallel close systems).
  3. Disabled "Soon" rows in InlineToolbar (Equation, Emoji react, Explain, Reformat): ship or hide.
  4. LinkPopover empty state could show "recently linked".
  5. Real block-level backlink for Save as note (NoteEditor comment flags it).
  6. GIF tab needs GIPHY_API_KEY provisioned to be useful.
  7. Playwright MCP contention: concurrent sessions share one chrome profile (mcp-chrome-*); UI smoke tests need serialization or per-session isolated profiles.

Merge notes

  • DONE 2026-07-09: round 1 merged as 8cfe007 (clean, main had not diverged), migration 20260709T161011 applied to lifeos, main pushed to origin.
  • Deploy intentionally held; dev slot :3063 left running for review.

Round 2 (2026-07-09 afternoon, from Justin's live testing; on branch, NOT yet merged)

  • 843f0e4 sticker rotate/resize sliders no longer reset dragged position (customize panel merged onto stale local design copy instead of the live store).
  • f6ec220 sticker hover outline delay 150ms -> 250ms.
  • cb91f8e sticker picker: GIF tab removed; Meme / Gif / Transparent background pills on Web image tab append "Meme" / "Gif" / "Png Transparent" to the query. Live-verified against the search API.
  • a405cd8 popped-out chat gets New chat + Recent controls (ChatFloatWindow only rendered the bare thread). Live-verified incl. thinking blocks in popout.
  • b649331 live-draw invisibility ROOT CAUSE fixed: the layer returns null on stroke-less pages, so the width-measuring effect ran on a null ref and width stayed 0, collapsing all stroke x-coords to the left edge (Justin's "color at the page edge"). Callback-ref mount handling fixes it; live-verified mid-gesture.
  • be19bac drawings are now objects like stickers: each draw session finalizes into "Drawing N" (design.drawings[], strokes local to bbox), movable/resizable/rotatable/renamable/deletable, 250ms hover + long-press parity; legacy flat drawing.strokes migrates on read. New component PageDrawings.tsx.
  • e9abfc8 central marquee guard: drag-select ignores draw mode, design-edit mode, and events on stickers/drawings layers.
  • ebee210 two bugs caught in live testing: non-scaling stroke width on non-square boxes; size clamp corrupting local (0..1) stroke widths.
  • All live-verified via Playwright on :3063; full typecheck clean; tree clean.
  • Follow-ups: extract shared "movable page object" logic (PageDrawings mirrors PageStickers interaction code intentionally); eraser does not erase finalized drawings (needs inverse-rotate hit-testing); sticker and drawing selection are independent.

Round 3 (2026-07-09, more live-testing feedback; on branch, NOT yet merged)

  • 434e134 picker pills multi-select (modifiers combine), labels "Meme" / "GIF" / "Transparent background".
  • 06251c3 "Choose emoji" is a pill on the same single row; emoji/web tab split collapsed.
  • 67413f0 "Hold to move" hover tooltip above stickers and drawings (flips below near viewport top).
  • b512615 long-press-entered customize mode exits to the editor on background click; menu-entered keeps old behavior (entry-source flag in livePageDesign store).
  • ed7a717 sidebar skeleton rows while route apps load (reuses ws-pulse); Apps section no longer unmount-flickers.
  • 731e96d SECOND cross-workspace bleed fixed: useInstalledApps fetchInstalled had no workspace-token guard (mutate did); stale in-flight GET could overwrite the new workspace's apps after a fast switch. Proven with a deterministic Node repro.
  • Branch is 14 commits ahead of main; typecheck clean; tree clean. Rounds 2+3 need merge (no migrations) + deploy when Justin approves.

Round 4 (2026-07-09, live-testing polish; on branch, NOT yet merged)

  • c9f9e5e hover tooltip renders as a sibling of the rotated element: always upright, 10px above, flip preserved.
  • cbd6790 instant hover cleanup on click-out; also clears the stale hover that survived long-press arming.
  • 6f39660 real root cause of "Done closes the panel": DrawTools toolbar lacked the data-ws-design-edit marker, so ANY toolbar click closed the customize popover. One attribute fix.
  • ac13b91 drawings listed in the customize panel like stickers (SVG preview, inline rename, remove, select-on-click via one-shot requestPageDesignSelection store).
  • 6fee8b6 just-finished drawings appear in the panel immediately (panel subscribes to live design store).
  • e0f4eaa sticker picker: "Search web" (default) and "Choose emoji" are separate tabs again; modifier pills only on web view.
  • SHIPPED 2026-07-09: rounds 2-4 merged to main as 1442ee2, pushed to origin, deployed to prod :3070 (build OK, service restarted, /login 200). Everything in this handoff is now LIVE on app.creatortrack.ai. Dev slot :3063 left running per Justin.
