Summary

  • Plan 2 amended (docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-23-rt-chat-viewer.md): new Task 0 — the two things console and the viewer genuinely share become packages: @mattstack/mantine-tokyo (the Tokyo tokens, consumed through the kit's brand slots; components stay each app's own — the kit is owned, not synced) and rt-client createRelay + daemonHealth (lifted from console's ws.ts; deck/board can use them too). rt-client from npm (^0.5), never a sibling file: path. Identity-based chat handles are already covered by RT-62: re-key every per-repo store onto a stable serialized repo identity #73, so Task 0a is relay + probe only.
  • Design rulings folded into Tasks 1–7: page bar naming the deaf agent (1 deaf: gitq-main), explicit mark read (viewing never mutates), server-derived branch, composer disabled with draft kept under daemon-down, memberStatus() as the one owner of the live/idle/deaf rule, server-side auto-join, 16px/44px mobile rules, deck gate ordering. Two drawn affordances cut with return conditions (not joined rooms; herdr pane focus).
  • Spec Web viewer section updated to match (shared tokens / owned components, layout laws, daemon-down behaviour, mobile rules, rollout step 6).
  • Design source kept beside the plan at docs/superpowers/design/2026-08-24-rt-chat-viewer/ (artboards, canvas.json, generator, README) until the chat repo exists; hosted canvas: https://claude.ai/code/artifact/933b24c5-9edd-4c70-9930-f5afbf14c9a9

Plan passed three rounds of plan-document review (approved). Docs only; repo-purity clean.

…e in rt-client, design rulings

Task 0 adds the two packages console and the viewer genuinely share:
@mattstack/mantine-tokyo (the Tokyo tokens, consumed through the kit's
brand slots) and rt-client's createRelay + daemonHealth, plus the chat
handle derivation moving onto the identity codec. The UI kit itself stays
each app's own create-mantine-kit copy, by design. Folds in the design
review rulings (page bar naming the deaf agent, explicit mark read,
server-derived branch, disabled composer under daemon-down, 16px/44px
mobile rules) and keeps the approved artboards beside the plan.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR defines the RT chat viewer specification and implementation plan. It adds a Python generator, canvas manifest, and five themed artboards covering desktop, mobile, daemon outage, room navigation, and indicator states.

Changes

RT chat viewer design

Layer / File(s) Summary
Viewer specification and implementation plan
docs/superpowers/specs/..., docs/superpowers/plans/..., docs/superpowers/design/.../README.md
The specification and plan define package boundaries, viewer layout, relay and health behavior, chat routes, member status rules, responsive interactions, testing, rollout, and design references.
Artboard generator and canvas manifest
docs/superpowers/design/.../build.py, docs/superpowers/design/.../canvas.json
The generator defines shared styles, fixtures, desktop and mobile views, outage states, indicator documentation, and canvas metadata.
Rendered viewer artboards
docs/superpowers/design/.../artboards/*
Five static artboards render themed desktop, daemon-down, mobile, room drawer, transcript, member, composer, and indicator states.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 12be0

The plan and design materials currently direct implementation toward unavailable room and pane behavior, omit a required virtualization dependency, and specify an incompatible client version. The documentation should be corrected before merge to avoid implementation and integration failures.

**Take from console:** the structure — Vite + React + Mantine via mantine-kit,
Hono with `upgradeWebSocket` from `hono/bun`, `@mattstack/rt-client` from npm,
TanStack Query, zod, vitest. **Leave:** Storybook, CodeMirror, Spotlight,
virtualization, and the `build:binary` embedded-asset path — all overkill for
a chat viewer, and the binary path in particular buys nothing when deck
already supervises the process.

Keep kit virtualization in the specification.

Task 1 retains @tanstack/react-virtual because SearchableMenu, SelectableList, and the Task 7 mention popover depend on it. “Leave virtualization” directs an implementer to remove a required dependency. State that the transcript is not virtualized, while the kit virtualization remains.

- **Packages come from npm, never a sibling `file:` path.** Console once
consumed rt-client as `file:../repo-tools/packages/rt-client`; deck moved to
the registry and the viewer follows: `@mattstack/rt-client@^0.4` and
`@mattstack/mantine-tokyo`. A `file:../` dependency is a build that only
works on one machine.

Set the viewer dependency to @mattstack/rt-client@^0.5.

^0.4 resolves only 0.4.x, which does not export createRelay or daemonHealth. Task 0a must publish 0.5.0 before the viewer installs this dependency.

- **Rooms rail** — unread counts, with mention badges visually distinct from
plain unread.
plain unread *without relying on colour*: a filled `@N` versus an outlined
`N`. Rooms the human has not joined say `not joined`.
- **Transcript** — live-appending over WS, infinite scroll back through
`chat_messages`. This is where the retention decision pays off.
- **Member list** — each member with status and *what it is*: cwd, branch,
herdr pane. Handles are derived and terse, so identifying which agent is
speaking matters more here than in human chat. Clicking a member focuses
its herdr pane, turning the viewer into a fleet console; this degrades to
nothing when viewed remotely.
- **Composer** — posts as `matt`, `@`-autocomplete from room members.
Posting into a room not yet joined auto-joins, consistent with
join-creates.
`chat_messages` behind an explicit edge row. This is where the retention
decision pays off. Times are local. No status marker sits beside a
message: a dot next to a 21:58 message would be a claim about then; status
lives on the member row. Bodies wrap anywhere (agents paste paths) and code
blocks scroll inside their own block, never the page.
- **Read cursor** — viewing never advances it. *Mark read* is an explicit
control (page bar on the desk, the `N new` divider on the phone), so an
accidental unlock cannot clear a mention.
- **Member list** — each member with status and *what it is*: branch, herdr
pane, path (head-truncated, the tail is the discriminating end), and a
sub-line saying why (`armed · seen 12s ago`, `tail died · last seen 2h
ago`, `armed, silent 22m`). Branch is derived by the viewer's server per
member cwd — `chat_members` has no such column and a worktree path cannot
yield one client-side. Handles are derived and terse, so identifying which
agent is speaking matters more here than in human chat. Clicking a member
focuses its herdr pane, turning the viewer into a fleet console; this
degrades to nothing when viewed remotely, so the row reads completely on
its own.

Remove deferred capabilities from the specification and design source.

The plan explicitly defers unjoined-room listing because no server source exists. It also defers pane focusing because no route addresses a pane ID. Task 1 copies these assets and uses them as implementation checks, so the current text and artboards direct implementation toward unavailable behavior.

* BOARD-33: GateForm falls back to raw context when no question sections it

parseGateContext now returns its preamble instead of null when zero
sections parse, so a plain-prose context still carries something a
caller can render. GateForm mirrors DecisionQueueModal's own raw
fallback for a context no question ends up sectioning.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* BOARD-34: gate-kit lint-bans the bare rt-client entry

Adds a no-restricted-imports rule scoped to packages/gate-kit/src that
bans @mattstack/rt-client's main entry, pointing at /gate instead, so
a value import cannot silently re-break the browser bundle the way it
did before.

collapse.ts and react/index.ts move to /gate now (GateQuestion is
already exported there). index.ts, summary.ts, and server/index.ts
split their remaining GateOrigin/GateRow/GATE_BY_PANE imports onto a
disabled line each, documented as waiting on RT-180 (/gate entry
completeness).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* BOARD-35: dedupe strict-membership/CAS-loss/reading-answers-back blocks

The three gate wrapper skills (review, respond, doctor) each carried a
full local copy of gate-protocol's strict-membership, CAS-loss, and
reading-answers-back mechanics. Collapse each to one pointer sentence
at mattstack:gate-protocol's "Answers are option values" and "CAS and
the doorbell" sections, delete-and-point style like BOARD-32's form
branch, keeping only what is genuinely gate-specific (the note-form
example and, where a multi question exists, the empty-array rule).

The wait-recipe and closed-gate/degraded blocks stay local pending
Matt's ruling (see herd ask).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* BOARD-35: extract shared wait-recipe/closed-gate/degraded rule for wrappers

Per Matt's ruling on the design fork (gate d64b11df): the wait-recipe,
closed-or-missing-gate handling, and the failing-wait-is-not-degradation
rule were duplicated word for word across review/respond/doctor's own
SKILL.md files. This content is board-CLI-specific (wraps <status-bin>,
not the raw rt gate CLI), so it stays out of mattstack:gate-protocol and
moves instead into a new board-local, non-invocable reference,
apps/board/skills/gate-cli-recipes/SKILL.md. Each wrapper now points at
it, keeping only its own gate-specific fallback logic (what a degraded
review/respond/doctor gate actually falls back to) local.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* BOARD-33 follow-up: GateForm's raw-context fallback is opt-out

The unconditional fallback duplicated content DecisionQueueModal
already renders in its own "Decision context" ScrollPane for any
unsectioned gate, breaking the modal's shipped layout contract
(decision-queue-context-layout.test.ts: the body was scrolling because
the form column grew to hold a second copy of the same raw text).

Adds showContextFallback (default true), same pattern as
showFocusAction: the modal passes false since it already covers this;
a bare GateForm host still gets the fallback for free.

* board-cleanup: fix prettier formatting on GateForm and gate-kit files

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* board-cleanup: restore CAS-loss/reading-answers-back rule into gate-cli-recipes

BOARD-35's dedup dropped two agent-facing rules that only lived in the
per-wrapper CAS-loss bullets: the status-bin's own silent-success/
JSON-line answer contract, and the value-unwrap rule for a noted answer.
Neither is covered by mattstack:gate-protocol's write-side note-form docs.
Restored into the shared gate-cli-recipes doc and pointed to it from all
three wrappers alongside the existing gate-protocol pointer.

Also fixes a stale test comment: parseGateContext returns an empty
section list for plain prose now, not null.
