Description

Workspace administrators choose which practices their workspace reviews.

Until now a workspace received a copy of the whole instance catalog and there was no way to add a practice you had passed over. Practice setup now shows the catalog beside the practices you already have: read a practice, add it, and what you get is an independent copy that later catalog changes never rewrite.

Nothing sends feedback because you added it. A practice Hephaestus can review starts at Review before sending; one it cannot review stays Off until you connect what it reads.

Reading no longer means editing. Selecting a practice — yours, or one the catalog offers — opens it in a panel beside the tree you were reading. Selecting something inside that panel stacks a second one. Escape, a press on the page, the browser's Back button or a swipe steps back one level, and every panel is in the URL, so the view you are looking at is the view you can share.

What a practice says, and in what order

criteria is the review rule, and it is written to the model that applies it: 35 of the 37 bundled practices contain MAJOR and PRESENT, 28 discuss severity, and the server composes a work-type preamble into it — so what reaches the screen has a median of 8,722 characters. It was the headline of the adoption panel, at text-xl font-semibold, above the two fields written for a human.

Now whyItMatters leads, whatGoodLooksLike follows, and the rule sits under How it decides beside the precompute script. It is markdown — the editor has always promised that — and it renders instead of arriving as literal ## and -.

"Not independently validated" is gone. PracticeAutomatedReviewValidationStatus has exactly one value, so the badge printed identically on all 37 practices while reading like a warning. In its place is a sentence saying nobody has measured how often the practice is right, and that this is why it starts by asking you to approve each piece of feedback.

Provenance says what actually happens. A copy never tracks the catalog, edited or not — UPDATE_AVAILABLE is computed for display and nothing in the product applies it. So the badges are Same as the catalog, Catalog changed, yours did not, No longer in the catalog and Edited here, and the matching case is labelled rather than silent.

Behaviour changes

Change What it means
Automatic installation becomes repair-only Existing workspaces keep everything. Any workspace with no recorded installation is still seeded once at startup — see the open question below.
Removing a group asks what to do with its practices Keep them in Unassigned, or delete them with the group, which also deletes their observations. Previously they were always kept.
…/practices/available and …/available/{slug} retired Both redirect into Practice setup; the second reopens that practice's panel. Existing links keep working.
One word throughout: catalog One component had called itself "Practice catalog", "Practice library" and "the catalog" in three places. The repo's vocabulary doc already settled it.
The user-facing noun "area" becomes group It was doing no work: three separate places explained an area as a group. area, areaSlug, PracticeArea and the API are unchanged.
Groups take an icon and a colour The picker the instance catalog already had. Left alone, both follow the name.

API

Five operations under /workspaces/{workspaceSlug}/practice-catalog/adoption: list what is available, preview a practice or a group, adopt a practice or a group. Both adopt operations require If-Match428 without one, 412 when the validator no longer matches — so the UI can only apply a plan the administrator saw. A * wildcard is accepted as RFC 9110 requires; the first-party flows always send the preview's validator. Both write a configuration-audit row.

Provenance is the catalog slug plus the review-rule fingerprint, with no foreign key into catalog state: the effective catalog is computed from repository defaults plus sparse overrides, so a copy must stay readable after its source is customised, excluded or removed.

Interaction, loading and reflow

  • Scroll. The router resets scroll on every commit, including a search-param-only one, so opening a panel from row 40 threw you to the top and dismissing restored the old offset after the exit animation. Both navigators opt out, and DetailStackLink omits the prop so a future surface cannot reintroduce it.
  • The nested-panel jump. height was in the popup's transition list, and Base UI releases a parent's pinned height on the child's completion frame. Height is now scoped to the axis where a drawer's height can legitimately change.
  • Motion is 280ms in / 200ms out on split curves, down from a near-symmetric 450/400. Reduced motion drops the scale and the travel and keeps the fade.
  • Loading is skeletons that hold the shape of what is coming. LoadingBlock is deleted — its min-h-32/min-h-64 reserved a height matching nothing, which is the jump a skeleton exists to prevent.
  • Reflow. Field ships a responsive orientation; the practice surfaces used hard horizontal, so a 14rem Select sat beside its label at 320px. Wide controls stack; switches and radios do not.

Reviewer's map

172 files. Most of it is in five places:

Where What
server/…/practices/curated/adoption/** The adoption API. Start at CatalogAdoptionService; CatalogAdoptionPlanAssembler turns a preview into a plan.
server/…/PracticeCatalogInstallationManager.java Renamed from DefaultPracticeCatalogSeeder. Records the installation instead of filling the workspace. The repair path is unchanged.
webapp/src/components/core/detail-drawer/** The stacking-panel primitive, its URL encoding, and the open/close hook. Nothing in it is practice-specific.
webapp/src/routes/…/admin/practices/index.tsx Where the tree, the catalog and the panel stack meet.
docs/admin/practice-catalog.mdx New. Adoption had no page for the people who do it — grep -i adopt over docs/ hit one contributor file and nothing in admin/ or user/.

webapp/AGENTS.md gains the rules this work encodes: drawer-or-route, the loading ladder, motion tokens, search params that are UI state, the vocabulary table, status registries, and field orientation. webapp/src/api/**, routeTree.gen.ts and server/openapi.yaml are generated — skip them.

Open question, found by deploying this branch

Against an empty database a fresh instance still receives the whole bundled catalog in every workspace (12 groups, 37 practices each). That is not what the adoption design intends.

Only WorkspaceService.createWorkspaceWithInitialization publishes WorkspaceCreatedEvent, which is what records the installation; WorkspaceProvisioningService and GithubLifecycleListener call createWorkspace directly, so workspaces provisioned at boot have no record and the repair pass seeds them. So the rule today is: at startup, any workspace with no installation record gets the full catalog. The docs say exactly that. Whether a fresh instance should come up empty is a product decision, not one to settle inside this PR.

Not in this PR

  • No automatic re-sync, and no one-click replacement when the catalog changes — an explicit non-goal of feat(server,webapp): workspace adoption of curated practices with provenance #1362.
  • No reliability numbers. feat(server,webapp): workspace adoption of curated practices with provenance #1362 also asks for a Changed since validation state; there is nothing to invalidate until measured records exist. Stable catalog identities and technology variants are tracked in #1445.
  • A refused form submit announces twice — the error summary and the inline field error are both live regions. Fixing it means changing the shared ui/field primitive.
  • The spacing scale is a rule, not a sweep. 31 distinct values express about six relationships; the scale is written down, and converting every surface would repaint the whole diff.
  • Comment density is 12.2% of added lines against a 6.9% house baseline. This round cut two dead modules, sixteen vocabulary violations, a self-contradicting pair of comments, ten restating labels and one sentence duplicated across twelve docs pages. What remains is mostly Base UI and router internals that are not derivable from the code; I stopped rather than delete load-bearing traps to reach a number.

Fixes #1362

How to test

  1. Workspace administration → Practice setup → Show catalog. Available practices appear grouped, each row carrying its own reason; ones you already have are not offered twice.
  2. Select a catalog practice. The panel leads with why the habit matters; the rule is one disclosure away. Add it and you land back in the catalog, not in an edit form.
  3. Select one of your own practices — read-only, with editing a separate marked step. Choose Edit practice, save, and confirm you return to that panel rather than a bare list.
  4. Open a second panel from inside the first. Step back with Escape, a press on the page, Back, and a swipe. Each removes one level and the panel slides out.
  5. Scroll halfway down the list before opening a panel. The page must not move, on open or on dismiss.
  6. Add a whole group: every add, reuse and skip is listed before you apply it, and a failure leaves nothing partly created.
  7. Change the catalog in another tab between opening a preview and applying it. Both the practice and the group flow refuse the stale plan and refresh in place.
  8. Remove a group and choose Keep practices unassigned; then remove one and choose Delete group and practices.
  9. At 320px: rows that pair a label with a dropdown stack instead of squeezing, and nothing needs a sideways drag.
  10. Set your OS to reduced motion and repeat step 4 — panels fade, nothing scales or travels.

Automated: 12 server integration tests over the adoption controller (authorization, tenant isolation, complete previews, atomic group adoption, provenance, re-adoption, audit rows, missing and stale preconditions, duplicates, concurrency), 7 webapp route tests, and the Storybook suite below.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds workspace administrator flows to browse, preview, and adopt curated practices or complete catalog areas. Adoption uses immutable previews, ETags, provenance snapshots, availability states, and autonomy defaults. The webapp adds library views, review screens, dialogs, routes, generated API clients, and validation coverage.

Release notes, contributor guidance, catalog screens, and administrator messages use adoption, offering, and practice-library terminology.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 569a1

The PR introduces unified practice-library adoption, but the current implementation can combine separate areas, omit required information before bulk adoption, misrepresent adoption autonomy, and potentially create unintended workspace content after a failed readiness step. Merge should wait for these bounded correctness and data-handling issues to be fixed or explicitly accepted by the owners.

Maintainer sequencing review after #1442

The explicit browse/preview/adopt experience is strong: ETag concurrency, duplicate protection, auditing, provenance, and the “Not yet validated” state should stay. CI is green.

Please hold this PR for coordinated rework before merge:

  1. Use feat(server,webapp): bounded practice-review rollout and explainable delivery policy #1356's single rollout state. This branch adds practice.delivery_mode beside practice.is_active, creating combinations that the decided OFF | SHADOW | ACTIVE state intentionally removes. feat(server,webapp): bounded practice-review rollout and explainable delivery policy #1356 should own that canonical state; adoption starts at SHADOW.
  2. Do not put delivery policy on Observation. observation.delivery_mode plus pervasive delivery_mode = ACTIVE query filters hides shadow evidence at the semantic/read layer. Shadow/non-delivery belongs in the resolver/feedback decision trace so feat(server,webapp): delivery funnel and shadow feedback preview #1358 can preview and explain it.
  3. Fix the historical occurrence-key eligibility leak. PracticeDetectionDeliveryService calls findActiveOccurrenceKeys(workspaceId, occurrenceKeys) across historical observations. After a future Active → Shadow transition, an older ACTIVE row with the same occurrence key can make the current shadow result eligible (the insert conflict preserves that historical row). Resolve eligibility for the current event/ledger decision, not by historical occurrence key.
  4. Rebase after feat(server): make practice reviews evidence-aware and accountable #1444 and feat(server,webapp): bounded practice-review rollout and explainable delivery policy #1356. feat(server): make practice reviews evidence-aware and accountable #1444 overlaps the practice fingerprint/schema, and feat(server,webapp): bounded practice-review rollout and explainable delivery policy #1356 owns delivery semantics. Preserve feat(server): enforce fail-closed instance silent mode #1442's suppression/egress behavior while resolving the shared review handlers.

This is not a request to reduce the adoption UX; it is to land it once, on the durable rollout/evidence model rather than immediately migrating away from an interim one.

Persist the marker in the workspace-creation transaction, or use a durable retry mechanism. Do not use best-effort asynchronous execution for this state boundary.

Add a cause-carrying constructor.

CatalogAdoptionService throws this exception in two places and discards the original exception each time. Line 47 to line 49 discard an EntityNotFoundException. Line 66 to line 68 discard an IllegalArgumentException from EntityTagPrecondition.parse. Neither site logs the discarded exception.

An operator who investigates a 412 response then has no record of the underlying reason. A cause-carrying constructor keeps that record.

Include the external /api prefix in the Location URI.

Production Traefik strips /api before forwarding requests. forward-headers-strategy: native restores the forwarded scheme and host, but not the stripped prefix. The current header therefore omits /api; update the URI construction to use the configured public API base path. The test regex does not detect this omission.

131-137: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Guard the area-name fallback against an undefined slug.

CatalogAdoptionArea declares both definition and slug as optional (webapp/src/api/types.gen.ts Lines 5361-5365). If both are absent for REUSE_EXISTING_AREA or CREATE_CATALOG_AREA, the template literal renders the text “undefined” to the administrator. Add a neutral fallback.

🐛 Proposed fix for the undefined fallback
 function areaOutcome(preview: CatalogPracticePreview): string {
 	if (preview.area.disposition === "UNASSIGNED") return "Leave unassigned";
+	const areaName = preview.area.definition?.name ?? preview.area.slug;
+	if (!areaName) return "Area could not be determined";
 	if (preview.area.disposition === "REUSE_EXISTING_AREA") {
-		return `Reuse existing area “${preview.area.definition?.name ?? preview.area.slug}” without changing it`;
+		return `Reuse existing area “${areaName}” without changing it`;
 	}
-	return `Create area “${preview.area.definition?.name ?? preview.area.slug}”`;
+	return `Create area “${areaName}”`;

FelixTJDietrich force-pushed the 1362-production-readiness-research branch from d031e1e to 84de100 Compare August 20, 2026 06:51
criteria is a model prompt: 35 of 37 bundled practices contain MAJOR and
PRESENT, 28 discuss severity, and it addresses the model in the second
person. The server composes a work-type preamble into it at load, so what
actually reached the drawer was a median of 8,722 characters, 20 practices
of which opened with the same 5,426-character block. It was the headline,
at text-xl font-semibold, above the two fields written for a human.

whyItMatters now leads and whatGoodLooksLike follows; the rule sits under
'How it decides' beside the precompute script, which is the same kind of
artefact. The summary DTO carries whyItMatters so a row is triageable
without opening it -- 20 of 37 practices review a pull request, so the work
type separated almost none of them.

Also collapses PracticeCatalog's library/showLibrary/onShowLibraryChange
into one prop: open-without-state was representable and rendered a loading
block that never resolved. Four story assertions that could never fail are
now real.
Adoption had no page in the admin guide: grep -i adopt over docs/ hit one
contributor file and nothing in admin/ or user/. The two decision-makers,
the instance admin who curates and the workspace admin who adopts, read
neither. docs/admin/practice-library.mdx is theirs.

practice-catalogue.md loses ~450 words: two wide tables restating one
three-scope inheritance rule become one diagram plus the ownership list,
and the badge tables move to the admin guide where they are a task.

Three contradictions between pages, all resolved toward the code:
- the vocabulary table still called the instance catalog 'the starting set
  copied into each new workspace', which adoption replaced;
- the user guide described HUMAN_APPROVAL as 'a quieter level', the volume
  framing practice-feedback-language.md forbids because it hides the human;
- the admin lead promised feedback for document and settled-thread reviews,
  which only pull request and issue handlers compose.

Also drops the paragraph naming three classes and a missing event: that
documented a defect as behaviour. The rule stays, the bug is linked.
Titles: three files relied on autotitle and landed under components/,
away from their titled siblings. WorkspacePracticePanel and
AreaDetailsDialog join Workspace admin/Practices; AreaPill goes to
Shared/Practice catalog, because both consoles render it.

Assertions that could not fail, now real: a queryByRole('radiogroup') on
a Base UI menu, which emits role='group'; a /Move practice/ name that
appears nowhere in src; a 'Use the default' menuitem that belongs to a
different component; and an onChange 'never called' in a play that could
not reach a swatch.

Coverage: the library's error and loading branches, the area panel's
confirm, Retry on two panels that stopped at 'the button is visible',
the Saving label, a definition carrying only one guidance field, and an
artifact kind the options do not describe.

Two stories asserted the harness rather than the component: dismissal
proved by finding the decorator's own h1, and an aria-hidden check
written as a tag selector.

The narrow-viewport stories had no play at all. They now assert reflow
on the drawer body -- not the popup, whose ::after swipe bleed sits at
left:100% and, being absolutely positioned, counts toward its ancestor's
scrollWidth. Measuring the popup reported a 47px overflow that reaches
nobody.
A 412 on a practice kept the panel open, refetched, and said so in place.
A 412 on an area closed the whole stack and left a toast telling the reader
to review the current contents -- of a panel that was no longer on screen.
Same failure, two recoveries, and the worse one on the flow that changes
more.

The area state now carries the practice state's action union instead of an
adding boolean, so 'in flight' is spelled once across the two panels.
Motion. Enter and exit ran 450/400ms on one entrance curve, roughly twice
every published desktop budget. Now 280/200 with a decelerate curve in and
a standard curve out. The nested jump is fixed at its cause: 'height' was
in the popup's transition list, and Base UI releases a parent's pinned
height on the exact frame its child's exit completes -- so height and
interpolate-size are now scoped to the y axis, where a drawer's height can
legitimately change. Reduced motion drops the scale, the step-back and the
travel, keeping only the fade.

Scroll. The router resets scroll on every commit, including a search-only
one, so opening a panel from row 40 threw the page to the top; dismissing
restored the old offset after the exit animation, which read as scrolling
down. Both navigators pass resetScroll: false, DetailStackLink omits the
prop so it cannot be passed back, and useSearchState gives every other
UI-state param the same default.

Loading. LoadingBlock is deleted. Its min-h-32/64 reserved a height that
matched nothing, which is the jump a skeleton exists to prevent. Spinner's
live region is opt-in, because role='status' is not presentational and was
corrupting the accessible name of every button it sat in. useSpinDelay
gates anything under a second.

Content. The stories carried 74 characters of whyItMatters against a real
median of 222 and a maximum of 511, so no layout claim had been tested.
The panels default to the real longest practice now.

'Not independently validated' was a constant: the status enum has exactly
one value, so it read identically on all 37 practices while looking like a
warning. It is a sentence that says what to do instead.

The reason a practice exists now precedes the mechanics of adopting it.
CatalogOriginBadge implied a relationship that does not exist. Adoption
copies once -- the install is guarded by an installation record, and
UPDATE_AVAILABLE's only consumer in the repo is the badge itself: no
endpoint, job or button ever applies it. So 'Instance catalog changed'
invited exactly the wrong reading. The labels now carry the outcome, and
the matching case is named rather than silent, because silence covered
three different states.

One word for the thing: 'Instance catalog', which is what the repo's own
vocabulary doc already settled. One component had been calling itself
'Practice catalog', 'Practice library' and 'the catalog' in three places.
The workspace-facing section and the instance-admin page now name their
scope instead of colliding on one title.
An area row rendered 'Hidden from practice dashboards' as a bare outline
Badge, inches from CatalogOriginBadge's outline Badge. One is a setting an
administrator chose; the other is a relationship to the catalog. Two
identical chips read as one family.

The repo's own rule already covers this -- StatusBadge.stories.tsx: 'Every
status ... renders through this one badge. Nothing else may hold words, a
colour or an icon for an enum value' -- and the registry makes the icon
mandatory precisely because badge variants collapse. Dashboard visibility
now has one, and it joins the gallery where the rules are checkable by eye.
The toggle sits above it, so a section that simply exists on the next
frame gives no clue where it came from. 200ms, and motion-safe: under a
reduced-motion setting the arrival is the information and the travel is
not.
The UI settled on 'catalog', so a page called Practice Library was the
same split the sweep just closed. The badge table also still listed the
old labels and an unlabelled matching state, and the reliability section
explained a phrase that no longer appears anywhere.

The mermaid node id said Library while its label said catalog.

@FelixTJDietrich FelixTJDietrich changed the title feat(workspace): adopt library practices without leaving practice setup feat(workspace): adopt catalog practices without leaving practice setup Aug 22, 2026
FelixTJDietrich and others added 10 commits August 22, 2026 23:47
…ted by hand

Vocabulary. practice-feedback-language.md is normative and the UI broke it
in six places: 'offer/offered' where the doc says include/exclude, four
spellings of Unassigned ('No area', 'Belong to no area', 'Not in an area'),
and 'review behavior' where the term is 'review rules'.

The user-facing noun 'area' is gone. It was doing no work -- three
independently written places explained an area as a group -- so it is
dropped where the group's own name is already on screen, and called a
group everywhere else. Code, types and API keep 'area'.

Atoms. artifact-kinds.ts has held label, plural and icon for a while with
no component, so five practice surfaces assembled it themselves at two
different gaps: now WorkTypeLabel.

inheritedAutonomySourceSentence returned null for the overridden case and
its three callers each filled that hole differently -- 'Set for this
practice', nothing at all, and passing the null straight through.
autonomySourceOf is total; AutonomySourceNote names both states.
The loading/error/ready union was written out four times and adapted four
more in one route, each with an unchecked cast, because useQueries cannot
correlate a result with the entry that produced it. So reading the wrong
level's payload was a runtime undefined.name rather than a type error.

Each query now tags its payload with the kind that asked for it, and
levelData reads a level only as the kind the caller is rendering. All four
casts are gone, and removing them made the compiler reject the old code --
which is the proof the tag works.

Empty states: four shapes shipped in one feature area. The workspace tree
had no media, no min-height and no way out, so filtering to zero left the
reader with per-group 'No matching practices.' strings and a banner telling
them to clear a filter, with no control that clears it. There is one now.
FilterToggle owns the select-and-toggle pair that was written out at each
call site, taking the role='toolbar' override and the shortened-label rule
with it, so the same control disagreed with itself about gaps and labels.

MetaRow separates captions from chips. Five siblings at one gap arrived as
'Pull or merge request Send automatically Follows the workspace default' --
one run-on sentence out of three unrelated facts.

webapp/AGENTS.md gains the rules these conversions encode: the motion token
set with the reduced-motion split and the transform/opacity/filter-only
rule, useSearchState for params that are UI state, the vocabulary table,
and the status-registry contract. Without them the next surface re-derives
each one -- which is how the loading pattern regressed the first time.

Deliberately not done: the 31-value spacing histogram is a rule in AGENTS,
not a sweep. Converting it would repaint every practice surface and bury
the review this branch exists for. native-select is not installed either:
it needs a new ui/ primitive, and the duplication was the real problem.
The editor stays a route -- PracticeDefinitionForm measures 3,019px on a
1200x900 desktop and 4,062px at 320x568, seven viewport-heights against a
1.5 limit, and at 320px a drawer is full-width so the context column that
justifies the pattern is not there. But leaving for it was throwing the
reader's place away: the Edit link passed search={{}}, discarding the whole
stack, and saving navigated with no search at all. The form now carries the
stack it was opened from and renders no drawer for it.

Responsiveness: Field ships a responsive orientation that stacks below a
container-query breakpoint, and the practice surfaces used hard horizontal
everywhere -- so a 14rem Select sat beside its label at 320px, leaving the
label about 60px. Five Selects now stack; the switch and radio rows keep
horizontal, because a 32px control beside its label is correct at any width.
Both halves of that rule are in AGENTS.md, with the reason.

Twelve components had no narrow-viewport story at all, including every
sub-editor that makes the form tall. They have one now, asserting through a
helper that names the element that overflowed rather than reporting that one
number is larger than another.
…they worked

panel-state.ts exported panelStateFrom with zero call sites, while its own
docstring said 'panelStateFrom is the only adapter, so the cast has nowhere
to live' -- and the route wrote the adaptation out four times by hand. The
PanelState type is genuinely useful and stays; the adapter and the sentence
go.

use-spin-delay.ts also had zero call sites, and AGENTS.md prescribed it. Its
effect listed shownAt in its own dependency array while the timer set it, so
it re-armed on every tick for the life of the request. Deleted; the rule now
points at spin-delay rather than a helper that does not exist.

Spinner regressed six callers. Inverting the aria default meant aria-hidden
silenced the aria-label those callers pass, and the bespoke label prop that
replaced it had no users and mounted role=status with its text already
inside -- the exact thing this branch's own ARIA22 rule forbids. It now
respects role/aria-label, which is what callers were already writing.

AGENTS.md had two sections named 'Drawer or route' giving different
measurements of the same form (68 controls/816px against 43/4,062px), and a
third figure in a story. One section, one measurement.

Vocabulary: 16 comments said 'library' where this branch's own rule says
catalog, and practice-search.ts had two comments fifteen lines apart
asserting opposite things about the same param.

Four assertions could not fail: a /## The standard/ text query the markdown
renderer never emits, a hover-card-trigger slot this tree cannot produce (in
two files), and a loop over practices the story does not render. One WCAG
sentence was copied verbatim into twelve published docs pages. FormActionBar
exists to stay on screen through a tall form and nothing asserted it.
Create and Edit on Practice setup and in the instance catalog now open as
levels of the same drawer stack the read-only panels use, so the tree an
entry belongs to stays on screen while it is written.

An editor holds a draft, so its level is guarded: Escape, a press on the
page and a swipe do not reach it. Cancel and the header's control are both
DrawerClose, which Base UI reports as close-press and the guard lets
through. A guarded level closes straight to the URL rather than animating
out first — useUnsavedChanges blocks that navigation to ask about the
draft, and animating out would unmount the form while the prompt is still
on screen.

The four editor routes become beforeLoad redirects into the stack, so
existing links and bookmarks land in the same place. Both forms lose their
page chrome and take cancel from their host.

AGENTS.md carried a four-criterion rule I wrote in this branch saying a
long form must be a route; criterion 2 measured the form against a budget
that DrawerBody's own scrolling makes irrelevant. It is rewritten to three
criteria plus the guarded-level mechanics.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Three faults, each reproduced frame by frame in a real browser before
being fixed, each now pinned by a story that fails without its fix.

No enter transition. Base UI's useTransitionStatus seeds `mounted` from
`open`, so `open && !mounted` — the branch that sets `starting` — cannot
run on a Root that mounts already open. Levels are mounted by the URL, so
every one of them landed there: no data-starting-style frame, no
transition, the panel simply present at rest. A level now mounts closed
and opens in a layout effect. Only levels that exist are mounted, so the
component mounting IS the level arriving.

The level behind a dismissed one jumped and re-animated. onOpenChangeComplete
cleared the closing depth on the completion frame, which re-opened the
level that had just finished leaving for as long as the navigation took —
it popped back in and the level behind snapped to its stepped-back
position. The closing depth now clears when the stack actually shrinks.

The peek showed no content. tailwind-merge dedupes an arbitrary custom
property by name and keeps the last, so the `--peek:1rem` default declared
after the size variant silently replaced the detail size's 4rem. The
column was narrower than the panel's own padding. Each size owns its peek.

Also: swipeDirection is not a swipe toggle. Dropping it for guarded levels
defaulted them to `down`, making every editor a bottom sheet. Guarded
levels keep swipeDirection="right" and refuse the `swipe` reason instead.

The Storybook suite runs under prefers-reduced-motion, which zeroes travel
and peek, so none of this could have been caught by an assertion on a
resolved value. AGENTS.md now says so, and the new stories assert on
things reduced motion leaves alone.

The editors' actions were a sticky bar rendered inside the scrolling
body, so they inherited that body's padding: the bar stopped 8px short of
both panel edges — its top border with it — and left 24px of dead space
beneath itself at the end of the scroll. FormActionBar had exactly two
callers, both now drawer levels, so it was a hand-rolled DrawerFooter
that got the geometry wrong. Deleted. The form is now the level: `flex
min-h-0 flex-1 flex-col` wrapping its own DrawerBody and DrawerFooter,
which is how every read-only panel is already built.

The fields kept a max-w-3xl reading cap from when these were pages. In a
panel sized for the form it only strands the buttons to the right of the
fields on a wide screen. The panel is the measure now; prose keeps a cap
of its own.

Panel headers were laying out three columns — dismiss, chip, title block,
badge — in a row that could not wrap. At 320px that left the title 191px
of 319 and wrapped it to two lines beside a badge holding a full
sentence. Badges move under the title, inside the title block, and the
row wraps as a backstop.

Moving the footer out of the body surfaced a real finding the old shape
had been hiding: the body's only non-disabled control had been the
Cancel button inside it, so a submitting form now leaves a scroll region
with nothing focusable in it. DrawerBody takes tabIndex={0}, the same
call ui/table already makes for its container.

Measured before and after in a browser: footer inset 1/0 either side and
zero gap below, header two columns at every width, no horizontal
overflow. The new story fails on the old shape with the footer at -15/-16.

…epeats itself

A websearch-grounded review of the branch against the library's docs and
the repo's own house style.

The guard was hand-rolled. Base UI's onOpenChange gives the callback an
`eventDetails.cancel()`; returning early instead only works because the
level's `open` is controlled. It is not equivalent: DrawerViewport
resets a swipe gesture *only* when `isCanceled`, and otherwise plays the
dismiss animation optimistically — so a swipe on a guarded level left the
panel off-screen with the URL still holding it open. Use the documented
API.

useSearchState was added in this branch to hold the `resetScroll: false`
decision "once", and then useDetailStack hand-rolled the same navigate
call and re-argued it in a comment. It could not reuse the hook because
the hook did not pass `state`. Widened, so the abstraction covers its
caller and the comment goes.

Comments: six route files carried the same five-line block explaining a
rule AGENTS.md already states, on files of fourteen lines. Two level
components restated § Guarded levels; two forms restated § Panel regions;
the header restated it again. Nine more restated the identifier above
them. AreaDetailsDialog cited AGENTS.md for a line that section does not
draw — and draws less of since this branch rewrote it. A docblock about
the move menu had been detached from AtScale onto an unrelated story,
where Storybook's docgen dropped the one below it.

Tests that could not fail: EveryKind asserted Array.prototype.map;
PracticeAutonomyPage's hover-card assertion had been weakened to
`toBeVisible()` on an element the story rendered, keeping a comment that
described the deleted assertion; the region-edges check used a one-sided
tolerance that passed a footer hanging outside the panel; four
`.not.toBeNull()` wrapped queries that throw on miss. The 409 test
promised recovery and asserted only that the drawer closed — a route that
swallowed every failure passed it.

The three adoption wire enums had no Javadoc while the client spent
paragraphs on what their values mean. Documented at the source.

Second pass over the densest files in the branch. The comment ratio on
added non-test webapp source was 11.5% against a 6.7% baseline for the
same surfaces, concentrated in the files a reviewer skims first:
DetailDrawerStack at 34.8%, DetailDrawerHeader at 30.6%,
use-unsaved-changes at 25.9%.

Most of it was the same fact argued three times — once in the JSDoc, once
at the statement, once in the story that asserts it. Kept the JSDoc,
pointed the others at it. Two comments cited statistics measured against
`default-catalog.json`, which is edited independently of both files and
would make them false without anyone noticing; both now say the shape of
the thing rather than a number.

9.7% now. Every line left carries a library quirk, a measured failure or
a decision with a cost.

A press on the greyed-out area did nothing on the practice and group
editors. They were in `guardedKinds`, and a guarded level refused Escape,
an outside press and a swipe outright — silently. Refusing silently is
indistinguishable from a broken drawer: there is no feedback, and no way
for the reader to learn the rule.

The guard was the wrong shape. A draft does not need the gesture blocked;
it needs someone to ask before it is thrown away, and `useUnsavedChanges`
already does that on the navigation every one of those gestures ends in.
So `guardedKinds` now means only what it has to mean — this level's close
goes straight to the URL without an exit animation, because the
navigation can be refused and animating out first unmounts the form while
the prompt is still asking.

Escape, a press on the page, a swipe and the panel's own controls now all
close an editor, and all four raise the discard prompt when there is a
draft and none of them when there is not. `details.cancel()` goes with the
refusal it existed for.

Pressure-tested every path frame by frame in a browser: single level,
nested far scrim, a press on the peek column, mid-enter, and guarded.
All five dismiss; the nested ones step back one level, which is what the
peek is for.

Peek 4rem to 6rem. Measured: the covered panel showed 40px of text past
its own padding, now 72px, and it still does not run off the left edge at
any width where a panel is partial rather than full-screen.

AGENTS.md, both `GUARDED_*_LEVEL_KINDS` docstrings and the changeset all
described the refusal as the feature. Corrected — the changeset would
have shipped a release note for behaviour that no longer exists.

`CuratedPracticeForm` rendered the Hephaestus-version banner and the edit
conflict alert as siblings of the form, which since the editors became
drawer levels means direct children of the popup. The popup is a bare
flex column, so both spanned it edge to edge while every field below
them was inset by `DrawerBody`'s padding — and being outside the scroll
region they held a fixed strip under the header on a short viewport.

`CuratedAreaForm` already had them inside its body. `PracticeDefinitionForm`
owns the body here, so it gains the `beforeFields` slot symmetric with the
`afterFields` it already had, and the host hands them over.

`HephaestusVersionPanel` also still capped itself at `max-w-3xl`, the last
of the page-era measure caps inside drawer content; the panel is the
measure. No `max-w-3xl` remains outside real pages.

`expectPanelContentInset` in `src/test/reflow.tsx` now asserts the general
rule — only a drawer's own regions reach its edges — on both hosts that
render the banner. Verified it fails on the original defect, naming
`section.max-w-3xl`.

Audited all six drawer surfaces in a browser for the same class of stray:
adoption, area adoption, workspace practice, workspace editor and both
instance editors. This was the only one.

#1443 moves the practice-catalog surfaces into a drawer stack and #1512 changes
what a failed evidence check withholds. Both edit the files this branch had
refactored for the lint migration, so 24 hunks across 21 files collided. Each
takes main's behaviour with this branch's conventions re-applied on top.

Six routes became `beforeLoad` redirects, so our edits to the page components
they replaced go with the components.

The larger part of the work was not in the conflicts. Main's new files had never
met this branch's rule set — `check` is a strict superset of CI, so main was green
without ever running it — and they arrived with **74 lint errors and 62 type
errors**. All are fixed at the source rather than suppressed: `as` removed at
every site by giving the value a type instead (a filter-option list, a detail-stack
parser that matches against the kinds it is given rather than asserting, three
per-kind readers where a generic `===` could only ever assert), ~20 floating
promises voided or hoisted, and nine `array[0]` reads made safe under
`noUncheckedIndexedAccess`.

Three story files had copy-pasted the same settled-panel helper and three more the
same `querySelectorAll` cast; both now go through one helper in `src/test/overlay`.

`webapp/AGENTS.md` keeps this branch's deletion of the Skills table — the root
guide owns it and is loaded alongside — and all eight sections main added.

Tests rise: webapp 1118 → 1145 across 135 files, Storybook 1496 → 1614 across 272.
