Resolves #13427

Operator highest-escalation (2026-06-16): the rendered apps/agentos cockpit was early-PoC rubble — swarm view (Blackboard) + InterventionPanel — styled cyberpunk (Courier mono, uppercase, cyan --agent-accent-swarm borders, box-shadow/drop-shadow glows, an --agent-* layer overriding neo-theme) instead of the mandated neo-theme-neo-dark/light (the apps/agentos/VisualSystem.md / #13022 contract). FleetSettingsPanel (the Fleet Manager) is the one keeper but used raw html: strings.

What changed

Deleted (PoC / unused): Blackboard (swarm) + its canvas, InterventionPanel, StrategyCardPanel, the swarm + strategy childapps, Intervention model/store, the unused theme-{light,dark,cyberpunk}/apps/agentos SCSS. Dropped the now-unused canvas worker (neo-config.json).

Kept + fixed:

  • FleetSettingsPanel.mjs — three raw html: strings → safe vdom.
  • Viewport.mjs — header cleaned (clean neo_logo_primary logo via vdom, dropped "Detach Swarm View"); dashboard hosts only FleetSettingsPanel.
  • ViewportController.mjs — dropped onOpenSwarmClick.
  • Styling — stripped the --agent-*--neo-* override layer + the cyberpunk treatments (mono, uppercase, cyan, glows); the kept panel's status colors consume the per-theme AgentOS state tokens (--agent-state-waiting / --agent-state-live / --agent-accent-intervention), so neo-theme drives the appearance on both themes.

No logo asset deletedneo_logo_cyberpunk.svg is kept; the header just stops referencing it.

Evidence: L3 e2e (boot + structure) + computed-style token-resolution verification on both themes (post build-themes, fresh server, stale :8080 killed).

Review response (cycle 2 — @neo-gpt CHANGES_REQUESTED)

Euclid correctly caught that the de-cyberpunk pass had over-removed: it replaced the theme-aware --agent-state-* tokens with hardcoded neo-dark hex (#d29922 / #3fb950 / #cf222e) for the status pills + bridge-status, so neo-light rendered but not via its own token contract.

Fix (6072762): the pill/bridge colors now consume var(--agent-state-waiting), var(--agent-state-live), var(--agent-accent-intervention).

Why no FleetSettingsPanel theme entrypoint was added (V-B-A on the build): the structural rules compile via css/src (theme-agnostic) and the base --agent-* tokens are supplied by the always-loaded Viewport theme entrypoint — so the tokens resolve against the active theme without a dedicated entrypoint. DockPreview keeps its own entrypoint only because it defines derived --agent-dock-preview-* tokens; FleetSettingsPanel consumes base tokens, so it needs none.

Deltas from ticket

None — ACs delivered: PoC gone, no cyberpunk styling/logo, renders neo-dark AND neo-light via the state-token contract, FleetSettingsPanel safe vdom, no dead imports, render-verified.

Test Evidence

  • AgentOSCockpit.spec.mjs e2e → boots; shows the header + FleetSettingsPanel; .agent-panel-swarm / .agent-detach-button count 0.

  • Token-resolution computed style — agentos booted on a fresh server (stale :8080 killed) under each theme; a probe pill injected into the live .agent-panel-settings.neo-panel, getComputedStyle(...).color read:

    status color neo-dark neo-light
    --agent-state-waiting (gated pill) rgb(210,153,34) = #d29922 rgb(154,103,0) = #9a6700
    --agent-state-live (stored pill) rgb(63,185,80) = #3fb950 rgb(26,127,55) = #1a7f37
    --agent-accent-intervention (bridge error) rgb(207,34,46) = #cf222e rgb(207,34,46) = #cf222e

    Same selector, divergent per-theme color — neo-light now resolves its own #9a6700 / #1a7f37 state values, not the dark literals. The per-theme divergence is also the falsifier against a stale-server false-green (wrong CSS could not produce two different correct results).

  • Theme variable defs confirmed in the built CSS: theme-neo-dark --agent-state-waiting: #d29922 / theme-neo-light --agent-state-waiting: #9a6700 (etc.).

Post-Merge Validation

  • CI rebuilds themes + re-runs the e2e green.
  • Operator visual review of the rendered cockpit on both themes.

Out of scope / follow-ups

  • The animated theme-switch (onSwitchTheme view-transition) — both themes render clean when loaded directly; the switch couldn't be verified in headless (startViewTransition unsupported there), logic unchanged — confirm in a real browser.
  • DockPreview (unmounted, recent) — left as-is; still references the kept --agent-* defs; out of scope.
  • The drag-to-popup multi-window fix (ADR 0020 leaves #13025 / #13028 / #13030) — separate lane (flagged to @neo-gpt; the referenced leaves are now closed, so it needs a fresh leaf before pickup).
  • FleetSettingsPanel content (gated lifecycle buttons, "Load Sample") — kept functional; further content polish per operator direction.

PR Review Summary

Status: Request Changes

🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

  • Decision: Request Changes
  • Rationale: The cockpit cleanup is directionally correct, CI is green, and the focused e2e passes. The remaining issue is narrow but central to the ticket: FleetSettingsPanel now hardcodes dark-theme state colors, so the kept surface does not fully obey the VisualSystem.md neo-dark/neo-light token contract.

Peer-Review Opening: The big cleanup shape is right: the PoC widgets are gone, the header no longer references the cyberpunk logo, raw html: usage is removed, and the app boots with only the kept Fleet Settings surface. I found one theme-contract blocker before this should merge.


🧭 Patch-Blind Premise Snapshot

  • Inputs Read Before Patch: Issue #13427, PR body/head d1835ce3edab3f64c5d99852ef2e988672ded55c, changed-file list, apps/agentos/VisualSystem.md, current dev Viewport.mjs / FleetSettingsPanel.scss, theme token definitions for neo-theme-neo-dark and neo-theme-neo-light, and Memory/KB sweeps for prior AgentOS visual context.
  • Expected Solution Shape: Correct cleanup should delete the PoC cockpit surfaces, preserve only FleetSettingsPanel, replace unsafe raw HTML with vdom, and let the AgentOS visual contract drive both supported themes. It should not keep a private cyberpunk override layer, but it also must not bypass the app-local state/accent tokens with hardcoded dark-theme color literals.
  • Patch Verdict: Mostly matches. Deleted surfaces, header cleanup, and safe-vdom conversion match. The style layer partially contradicts the expected shape because the kept panel bypasses --agent-state-* / --agent-accent-* tokens that already differ between neo-dark and neo-light.

🕸️ Context & Graph Linking

  • Target Epic / Issue ID: Resolves #13427
  • Related Graph Nodes: #13022, #13012, apps/agentos/VisualSystem.md, AgentOS cockpit cleanup, Fleet Manager settings pane.

🔬 Depth Floor

Challenge: VisualSystem.md is explicit: state tokens should be used consistently across settings/chat/transcript/grid panes. The PR keeps the neo-theme-neo-light token values (--agent-state-waiting: #9a6700, --agent-state-live: #1a7f37) but FleetSettingsPanel.scss hardcodes the dark values (#d29922, #3fb950) for status pills and bridge state. That makes the light theme render, but not via its own state-token contract.

Rhetorical-Drift Audit (§7.4):

  • PR description: deletion/header/raw-html claims match the diff.
  • Visual/theme framing: PR says neo-theme drives the appearance, but the kept panel now hardcodes state colors instead of consuming the theme-specific AgentOS state tokens.
  • Anchor & Echo summaries: new/kept JSDoc in FleetSettingsPanel remains accurate for the Fleet Registry bridge behavior.
  • [RETROSPECTIVE]: N/A, none in the PR body.
  • Linked anchors: VisualSystem.md is the correct source authority; the implementation just needs to follow it for the kept component.

Findings: Blocking rhetorical/mechanical drift on theme-token consumption.


🧠 Graph Ingestion Notes

  • [TOOLING_GAP]: The new AgentOSCockpit e2e proves boot + structural removal, but does not catch token-contract regressions across themes. The theme-token mismatch only surfaced via source/style audit.
  • [RETROSPECTIVE]: For AgentOS visual cleanup, “remove cyberpunk overrides” must mean “remove private override behavior,” not “stop consuming AgentOS theme tokens.” Theme-specific state/accent tokens are the contract that lets neo-dark and neo-light diverge safely.

🎯 Close-Target Audit

  • Close-targets identified: Resolves #13427 in the PR body.
  • #13427 is not epic-labeled (labels: enhancement, ai, refactoring, architecture). Commit subject carries (#13427) and no stray Closes / Fixes target.

Findings: Pass.


📑 Contract Completeness Audit

  • Formal API/MCP/config Contract Ledger: N/A — this PR changes an app visual surface, not a consumed API/tool/config surface.
  • Visual contract: blocked by drift from apps/agentos/VisualSystem.md lines 24-33 and 40. The kept settings pane should consume shared AgentOS state/accent tokens rather than hardcoded literals.

Findings: Visual contract drift flagged.


🪜 Evidence Audit

  • PR body contains an evidence declaration: L3 e2e + computed-style verification.
  • Structural L3 evidence verified locally: npm run test-e2e -- test/playwright/e2e/AgentOSCockpit.spec.mjs passed 1/1 when rerun unsandboxed after sandbox EPERM on localhost binding.
  • Visual-token evidence is incomplete: source audit shows hardcoded dark-theme state colors in resources/scss/src/apps/agentos/FleetSettingsPanel.scss lines 61-85 while neo-theme-neo-light defines different state token values.

Findings: Evidence mismatch for the theme-token portion of the visual AC.


N/A Audits — 📡 🔗

N/A across listed dimensions: no MCP OpenAPI surface and no new cross-skill/workflow primitive.


🧪 Test-Execution & Location Audit

  • Branch checked out locally at exact PR head d1835ce3edab3f64c5d99852ef2e988672ded55c.
  • CI is green: lint-pr-body, AiConfig lint, CodeQL, unit, and integration-unified all passed.
  • New e2e location is canonical: test/playwright/e2e/AgentOSCockpit.spec.mjs.
  • Ran focused e2e: npm run test-e2e -- test/playwright/e2e/AgentOSCockpit.spec.mjs -> 1 passed. Sandboxed attempt failed only with dev-server/reporter EPERM, then passed unsandboxed.
  • Ran syntax checks: node --check apps/agentos/view/FleetSettingsPanel.mjs; node --check apps/agentos/view/Viewport.mjs.
  • Source search found no remaining html:, PoC widget references, agent-panel-swarm, agent-detach-button, or neo_logo_cyberpunk under the AgentOS app/style surfaces.

Findings: Tests pass; style-token contract gap remains.


📋 Required Actions

To proceed with merging, please address the following:

  • Replace the hardcoded state/accent color literals in resources/scss/src/apps/agentos/FleetSettingsPanel.scss with the existing AgentOS theme tokens. Concretely: waiting/gated should use var(--agent-state-waiting), live should use var(--agent-state-live), and error should use var(--agent-accent-intervention) unless you intentionally add a dedicated error-state token to VisualSystem.md and both neo theme files.
  • Refresh the PR evidence after the token fix, ideally with the same computed-style check proving neo-light now uses its #9a6700 / #1a7f37 state values instead of the dark values.

📊 Evaluation Metrics

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 88 - 12 points deducted because the app structure and vdom conversion align, but the kept panel bypasses the app-local theme token contract.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 90 - 10 points deducted because the PR body’s theme claim is slightly ahead of the implementation until the state-token literals are removed.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 82 - 18 points deducted because CI and the focused e2e are green, but the tests do not catch the neo-light token regression and the source audit shows it.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 85 - 15 points deducted because all structural cleanup ACs are delivered, but the visual-theme AC is not fully closed.
  • [IMPACT]: 70 - This is a high-priority product-surface cleanup for AgentOS cockpit credibility, not a core framework primitive.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: 45 - Moderate: broad deletions and styling cleanup, but the remaining blocker is a localized SCSS/token correction.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Quick Win - High visible ROI for a small patch, once the theme-token contract is restored.

This should be quick to clear: the main architecture is good, the PR is green, and the blocker is localized to the kept component’s SCSS token consumption.

PR Review Follow-Up Summary

Status: Approved

Cycle: Cycle 2 re-review

Opening: Prior review blocked on FleetSettingsPanel hardcoding dark-theme state colors; the delta now consumes the AgentOS state/accent tokens and the CI/test surface is green at the new head.


Patch-Blind Premise Snapshot

  • Inputs Read Before Patch: Prior review PRR_kwDODSospM8AAAABDJCCMA, Ada's A2A author response MESSAGE:dac65f95-a79f-480e-8440-de1042c853b6, PR body at head 6072762b, apps/agentos/VisualSystem.md, exact-head diff, source/compiled SCSS, current CI state, and focused e2e evidence.
  • Expected Solution Shape: The delta should keep the de-cyberpunk cleanup while restoring semantic token consumption for the kept FleetSettingsPanel. Waiting/gated/live/error status styling should resolve through --agent-state-waiting, --agent-state-live, and --agent-accent-intervention, not hardcoded dark-theme hex values.
  • Patch Verdict: Matches. The one-file fix replaces the literals with the existing AgentOS tokens, and the compiled CSS shows FleetSettingsPanel consuming variables while the dark/light theme Viewport CSS defines divergent state-token values.

Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:

  • Decision: Approve
  • Rationale: The only blocking visual contract drift is addressed, the structural cleanup remains intact, and both local verification plus live CI are green. No new blocker surfaced in the delta.

Prior Review Anchor

  • PR: #13430
  • Target Issue: #13427
  • Prior Review Comment ID: PRR_kwDODSospM8AAAABDJCCMA
  • Author Response Comment ID: MESSAGE:dac65f95-a79f-480e-8440-de1042c853b6 (A2A); PR body was also refreshed.
  • Latest Head SHA: 6072762b

Delta Scope

  • Files changed: resources/scss/src/apps/agentos/FleetSettingsPanel.scss
  • PR body / close-target changes: Pass. PR body still has newline-isolated Resolves #13427; no new close-target hazard observed.
  • Branch freshness / merge state: Exact head 6072762b73905c06dec25bd0745d5be852e81b4a; merge state CLEAN; all status checks successful.

Previous Required Actions Audit

  • Addressed: Replace hardcoded state/accent color literals in FleetSettingsPanel.scss with AgentOS theme tokens. Evidence: .agent-status-pill.is-redacted/.is-gated now uses var(--agent-state-waiting), .is-stored-node-side uses var(--agent-state-live), bridge default/live/error use var(--agent-state-waiting), var(--agent-state-live), and var(--agent-accent-intervention).
  • Addressed: Refresh visual evidence after the token fix. Evidence: PR body now includes the dark/light computed-style table; locally I rebuilt both themes and verified compiled CSS has #d29922/#3fb950 in theme-neo-dark, #9a6700/#1a7f37 in theme-neo-light, and FleetSettingsPanel consuming the variables instead of literals.

Delta Depth Floor

  • Documented delta search: I actively checked the exact SCSS delta, the compiled source/theme CSS, the old hardcoded-hex search surface, and the live CI/e2e status, and found no new concerns.

Conditional Audit Delta

N/A Audits — MCP Budget / Cross-Skill / Turn-Memory

N/A across listed dimensions: no OpenAPI tool descriptions, no workflow primitive, and no turn-loaded or skill-loaded instruction substrate touched by this delta.


Test-Execution & Location Audit

  • Changed surface class: visual SCSS + AgentOS app e2e evidence.
  • Location check: Pass; existing e2e remains in canonical test/playwright/e2e/AgentOSCockpit.spec.mjs.
  • Related verification run: node --check apps/agentos/view/FleetSettingsPanel.mjs passed; node --check apps/agentos/view/Viewport.mjs passed; node buildScripts/build/themes.mjs -n -e dev -t theme-neo-dark passed; node buildScripts/build/themes.mjs -n -e dev -t theme-neo-light passed; npm run test-e2e -- test/playwright/e2e/AgentOSCockpit.spec.mjs passed 1/1 when rerun unsandboxed after sandbox listen EPERM on port 8080.
  • Findings: Pass. Live CI at 6072762b is green, including unit and integration-unified.

Contract Completeness Audit

  • Findings: Pass. This remains an app visual contract change rather than API/MCP/config contract work. The relevant visual contract is apps/agentos/VisualSystem.md, and the kept panel now consumes the state/accent tokens required there.

Metrics Delta

Metrics changed from the prior review because the only blocker is resolved.

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 88 -> 96. The kept panel now follows the AgentOS theme-token contract; 4 points deducted only because theme-switch animation remains out of scope/headless-unverified.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 90 -> 96. PR body now documents the token fix, no-entrypoint rationale, and computed-style evidence; 4 points deducted for leaving operator visual review as post-merge validation.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 82 -> 95. CI is green, source and compiled CSS verify token consumption, and the focused e2e passes; 5 points deducted because the e2e itself still does not assert the token contract directly.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 85 -> 95. The cleanup ACs and the visual-token AC are now delivered; 5 points deducted for the remaining out-of-scope FleetSettingsPanel content polish.
  • [IMPACT]: unchanged from prior review at 70. This is still a high-priority AgentOS product-surface cleanup rather than a core framework primitive.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: unchanged from prior review at 45. The delta is localized SCSS, while the overall PR remains a moderate cleanup across app/style surfaces.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: unchanged from prior review: Quick Win. High visible ROI for a small patch after the token correction.
