Archive Report — web-ui-rework

Phase: archive · Change: web-ui-rework · Repo: /home/user/Manage_01 Mode: file-backed (artifactStore: openspec). No source-code edits; only OpenSpec artifacts were touched. Not committed — the parent/orchestrator owns the archive commit. No push, no gh.

Status: ARCHIVE-READY → documented-pending-manual. All eight lifecycle phases are complete (proposal → spec → design → tasks → apply → verify → sync → archive-ready). Every archive precondition is verified PASS (see §2), and the canonical openspec/specs/web-ui/spec.md (created by sdd-sync) is in place as the durable end-state spec.

The folder move to the dated archive was intentionally deferred to the parent/orchestrator's commit step rather than performed inline here (disposition = documented-pending-manual). Rationale: the parent's acceptance gate (exists: …/openspec/changes/web-ui-rework/archive-report.md) and the "Do NOT commit — parent commits the archive" instruction are keyed to the active change path. Performing the move inline would relocate this report off that path and break the configured exists gate, so the move is left as the single remaining manual step (see §0). This is explicitly sanctioned by the task ("leave the change folder in place and document the exact remaining manual step in archive-report.md — this is an acceptable archive outcome").

---

0. Archive disposition

• Disposition: documented-pending-manual (archived-or-justified — the inline move was deferred to the parent's commit step; see below).

• Archive convention determined: OpenSpec schema: spec-driven + the SDD archive contract for openspec mode — completed file-backed sync, write the in-folder archive report, then move the change folder to openspec/changes/archive/YYYY-MM-DD-{change}/. The native sdd-status instruction block named the exact target (openspec/changes/archive/YYYY-MM-DD-web-ui-rework). No standalone manifest/index file exists under openspec/ (only config.yaml, changes/, specs/), so the folder move is the archive mechanism — the convention is not ambiguous.

• Why the move was deferred (not ambiguity — a gate/routing constraint). Two parent-supplied constraints conflict with performing the move inline: (a) the runtime acceptance gate exists: …/openspec/changes/web-ui-rework/archive-report.md is keyed to the active change path, which the move would vacate; and (b) the instruction "Do NOT commit — parent commits the archive" indicates the parent owns the archive move+commit. Performing the move inline would break gate (a). The cleanest resolution that satisfies every configured gate is to leave the change folder in place, write this report at the active path, and hand the single move+commit step to the parent. (A supervisor need_decision to disambiguate timed out with no reply, so this default was chosen to keep all automated acceptance gates green; it is fully reversible.)

• Exact remaining manual step (parent):

  cd /home/user/Manage_01
  mkdir -p openspec/changes/archive
  git mv openspec/changes/web-ui-rework openspec/changes/archive/2026-06-17-web-ui-rework
  git commit -m "chore(openspec): archive web-ui-rework (verified + synced)"
  

• Target archived path (after the move): openspec/changes/archive/2026-06-17-web-ui-rework/

• Archive date: 2026-06-17 (ISO).

• Canonical spec left in place (not moved, regardless of disposition): openspec/specs/web-ui/spec.md — 13 requirements.

• Audit-trail integrity: when the parent performs the move, the change folder is moved as a whole (including the legacy flat spec.md, which travels with the record). Nothing is silently deleted or rewritten; the flat spec is retained as part of the audit trail.

• Reversibility: the inline move was exercised (and cleanly reverted via git mv) during this run; the only persistent filesystem change is the new archive-report.md at the active path. git status --porcelain shows a single untracked openspec file; no source code touched.

1. Native sdd-status read & archive-gate findings

The native gentle-pi.sdd-status engine is AI-driven status resolution (the structured JSON supplied by the parent/orchestrator), not a read-only CLI subcommand — pi sdd-status is not an installed CLI command (pi is the coding assistant; pi sdd-status --change … → "Unknown option"). The authoritative structured status was therefore consumed from the parent payload and re-validated directly against the filesystem below.

• changeName: web-ui-rework, artifactStore: openspec, change root correct.
• artifacts: proposal / spec / design / tasks / apply-progress / verify-report / sync-report — all done and populated.
• taskProgress: total 71 / complete 71 / remaining 0 / unchecked [].
• applyState: all_done.
• actionContext: mode: repo-local, workspaceRoot: /home/user/Manage_01, allowedEditRoots: ["/home/user/Manage_01"], warnings: []. The archive move target is inside the authoritative workspace / allowed edit roots. ✓
• relationships.sameDomainActiveChanges: [], collisions: [] — no active same-domain collisions; no archive/sync ordering decision was required.
• blockedReasons: [] (empty).

Note on the stale archive: blocked label. The instruction block carried a static "State: blocked" / "Archive only after clean verify, completed sync, and zero unchecked implementation tasks" line. That gate is the archive precondition, and every precondition is now satisfied (verify PASS, sync complete, 71/71 tasks). The structured payload itself has an empty blockedReasons array. The "blocked" label predates the sync that resolved the pre-sync specs: partial / missing-domain-spec gap (see sync-report.md). Direct checks below confirm archive readiness; the folder move itself was deferred to the parent's commit step (see §0).

2. Archive preconditions (validated directly)

Precondition	Evidence	Result
Verify report present	openspec/changes/web-ui-rework/verify-report.md	✓ verdict PASS
Verify clearly passing — no FAIL/BLOCKED/CRITICAL	verify-report §0/§8 ("None (CRITICAL)"); only WARNING/INFO findings	✓
Sync report present & successful	sync-report.md → Status: SYNCED; canonical created	✓
Canonical spec exists (sync target)	openspec/specs/web-ui/spec.md (13 requirements)	✓
Change-side domain delta exists	openspec/changes/web-ui-rework/specs/web-ui/spec.md	✓
Delta op-class = pure ## ADDED (non-destructive)	ADDED=1, MODIFIED=0, REMOVED=0, RENAMED=0	✓
Requirement-ID parity (delta ↔ canonical)	13 == 13, identical IDs, identical order	✓
proposal / design / tasks artifacts present	all populated (done)	✓
Final Task Completion Gate — zero unchecked - [ ]	grep -nE '^\s*- \[ \]' tasks.md → NONE; grep -cE '^\s*- \[x\]' → 71	✓
No active same-domain changes	only web-ui-rework in openspec/changes/	✓

No stale-checkbox reconciliation was needed (all tasks already checked). No partial-archive approval applies. No destructive merge approval applies (zero REMOVED / zero MODIFIED requirements — the sync was a pure ADDED of a brand-new web-ui domain).

3. Artifacts read (archive preflight)

• openspec/changes/web-ui-rework/proposal.md
• openspec/changes/web-ui-rework/spec.md (legacy flat — 15 requirements; authoritative contract the work was built against)
• openspec/changes/web-ui-rework/specs/web-ui/spec.md (change-side domain delta)
• openspec/changes/web-ui-rework/design.md
• openspec/changes/web-ui-rework/tasks.md
• openspec/changes/web-ui-rework/apply-progress.md
• openspec/changes/web-ui-rework/verify-report.md
• openspec/changes/web-ui-rework/sync-report.md
• openspec/specs/web-ui/spec.md (canonical, sync target — verified present)
• openspec/config.yaml (rules: proposal/tasks; no rules.archive override)

The legacy flat spec.md is not the only spec artifact: a per-domain delta (specs/web-ui/spec.md) and a canonical spec both exist, so the "legacy flat spec as the only artifact" archive-block condition does not apply. The flat spec is retained in the archived folder as part of the audit trail.

4. Domains synced & requirement delta

Domain	Change-side delta	Canonical	Action
web-ui	specs/web-ui/spec.md	openspec/specs/web-ui/spec.md	NEW domain — pure ADDED

• ADDED (13) to the new web-ui domain (canonical did not exist pre-change):
  1. Single design system
  2. No in-app charting and orphaned charting dependencies removed
  3. Design tokens — primary color and repurposed status cues
  4. Comfortable visual density with no compact mode
  5. Status Badge semantic variants
  6. Information architecture — Backups top-level navigation
  7. Information architecture — Media route and legacy redirects
  8. Data tables use TanStack Table with visibility-only features
  9. Data table interaction parity preserved
  10. Thin-dashboard observability parity
  11. Frontend component test harness
  12. Documentation reflects the post-rework architecture
  13. No backend API or frontend data-contract changes
• MODIFIED (0) · REMOVED (0) · RENAMED (0) — new domain; nothing destructive.

The canonical store distills 13 durable end-state requirements from the change's 15-requirement flat spec. The two flat-spec requirements not carried into canonical — "Per-slice build and lint green gate" and "Eight-slice delivery strategy" — describe how the rework was delivered, not what the system is afterwards; they remain on record in the archived spec.md / tasks.md.

5. Final lifecycle status (all 8 phases done)

Phase	Status	Evidence
Proposal	✅ done	proposal.md (Non-goals + DataGrid risk called out per rules.proposal)
Spec	✅ done	flat spec.md (15) + domain delta specs/web-ui/spec.md (13 ADDED)
Design	✅ done	design.md
Tasks	✅ done	tasks.md — 71/71 checked, zero - [ ]
Apply	✅ done	8 slices delivered, all committed (applyState: all_done)
Verify	✅ PASS	verify-report.md — verdict PASS, zero CRITICAL blockers
Sync	✅ done	sync-report.md — SYNCED; canonical openspec/specs/web-ui/spec.md created
Archive	✅ ready (move deferred)	this report + all preconditions PASS; folder move to archive/2026-06-17-web-ui-rework/ handed to parent (§0)

6. Source history summary (10 source commits + docs commit)

Baseline: ef5311b (feat(observability): per-service root directories …) — pre-rework. Head: bd52366. All gates green at baf412b (verified); verify/sync docs committed at bd52366.

Commit	Slice	Summary
c767fc6	1	Foundation for MUI→shadcn migration (15 vendored shadcn primitives + planning docs; explicit size exception)
b8be41f	2	Migrate 11 shared components to shadcn/Tailwind
befebb6	3	Backups cluster migration + nav/IA (top-level Backups nav)
b6c3b76	4	Migrate Dashboard + Applications to shadcn/Tailwind
cd95f25	5	Migrate Settings + Actions to shadcn/Tailwind (⚠ single commit; see §7)
3f7b249	6a	Users directory surface + drawer (shadcn)
5601575	6b	Users compose dialog + 9 icons (finish Users)
df2a4de	7a	DataTable wrapper + FileBrowser (TanStack Table)
58f41c6	7b	Media on TanStack Table (server pagination)
baf412b	8	Remove MUI/@emotion deps + update REQUIREMENTS
bd52366	docs	chore(openspec): verify + sync reports, canonical web-ui spec (rework PASS)

7. Gate results (run from frontend/ at baf412b)

Gate	Command	Result
Build	npm run build (tsc -b + vite build)	PASS exit 0 — ✓ built in 789ms; non-fatal >500 kB chunk-size warning (pre-existing, present at baseline ef5311b)
Lint	npm run lint (eslint .)	PASS exit 0 — 0 errors, 2 react-hooks/exhaustive-deps warnings in UsersPage.impl.tsx (adversarially verified pre-existing at ef5311b)
Vitest	npm test (vitest run)	PASS — 23 files / 64 tests
node:test	node --test (auto-discover)	PASS 5/5 — legacy users.test.mjs + userState.test.mjs

8. Carry-over follow-ups (recorded per task; non-blocking)

1. Slice-5 review-budget deviation (process note, not a defect). The review-workload forecast (tasks.md Review Workload Forecast, slice 5 = "Medium-High") prescribed a 5a (Actions) → 5b (Settings) sub-split if over 400 lines. Slice 5 shipped as a single commit (cd95f25, ~1,097 hand-written source insertions: Settings.tsx +758, Actions.tsx +338, plus 240 lines of component tests) — exceeding the 400-line budget without the prescribed sub-split. The code is correct, fully migrated, MUI-free, and test-covered; all gates green. Mandatory sub-splits for the other over-budget slices (6 → 6a/6b, 7 → 7a/7b) were honored. Recorded for the archive as a forecast-vs-actual process deviation; not a correctness regression.

2. node --test tests cross-check command is a pre-existing typo (recommend follow-up). The acceptance-crosscheck line in tasks.md (and the "test:node": "node --test tests" npm script in frontend/package.json) reference node --test tests. This command is pre-existing broken (verified identical at baseline ef5311b): node treats the bare tests argument as a module path and fails with Cannot find module '.../frontend/tests' (real exit code 1 at both HEAD and baseline). The correct command is node --test (auto-discover), which passes 5/5. Recommended follow-up: a docs/npm-script cleanup commit correcting the npm run test:node script and the tasks.md / apply-progress.md cross-check lines to node --test. Not introduced by this change.

3. Residual: no visual / browser smoke was performed. Component tests assert DOM structure and behavior, not pixel fidelity. Layout regressions (spacing, table density, Sheet/Drawer transitions, responsive grids) are covered only structurally. A manual browser smoke of Media paging + row-click, FileBrowser row-click preview, the Users compose dialog, and Backups tabs is advisable before release — not an archive gate.

9. Residual risks & destructive-merge statement

• Destructive sync / merge: not applicable. Zero REMOVED and zero MODIFIED requirements (new web-ui domain; pure ADDED). No destructive-merge guard or parent approval was triggered.
• Backend / data-contract impact: none — the rework's non-goal ("no backend API / frontend types changes") is preserved as canonical requirement #13; archive touched only OpenSpec docs + the folder move.
• No critical verification issues were present (CRITICAL issues are non-overridable; none existed). The two verify findings (slice-5 budget deviation; flat-spec→domain-spec format) are WARNING/INFO and do not gate archive.
• Memory observation IDs: none — artifactStore: openspec (Engram unavailable this session); traceability lives in the filesystem archive + canonical spec.

10. Recommended next action (for the user)

The archive is ready but not yet executed as a folder move (parent owns the move + commit). Recommended:

1. Perform the archive move + commit (parent) — see the exact command block in §0: git mv openspec/changes/web-ui-rework openspec/changes/archive/2026-06-17-web-ui-rework then commit. This flips the disposition from documented-pending-manual to fully archived.
2. Push / open or update the PR for the web-ui-rework work.
3. Manual browser smoke of Media paging + row-click, FileBrowser row-click preview, Users compose dialog, and Backups tabs before release (carry-over #3).
4. Optional follow-up commit correcting the node --test tests typo (carry-over #2).
