Resolves #15649

Four leaves, one film-floor pass on the FM cockpit: (1) the generic tab body no longer leaks the stock theme's olive surface + borders into the FM tonal stack — the Workstation precedent scoped FM-side only; (2) the card narrow breakpoint now evaluates the content box it actually measures (289px ≈ the documented <320px outer intent, given 28px padding + 2px border) — the previous 319px value fired at ≤349px outer, hiding the engine where the head plainly has capacity while inflating controls to a 94px action group (31.5% of a 298px head): the breakpoint manufactured the scarcity it was meant to absorb; (3) the keeper-view nav's active tab indicator reads as FM signal instead of the stock neutral-contrast white strip (shell-scope token override only); (4) the pop-out detail toggle joins the cockpit bar's quiet hierarchy — Start fleet remains the sole signal/primary action.

Evidence: L2 (live render receipts at 6 widths × 2 themes + 4 visual baselines) → L2 required (design-surface change with pixel baselines). Residual: the full agentos e2e sweep could not complete on the shared machine (parallel-session port contention on the NL bridge 8081 + fleet dev server 8083 — receipt: EADDRINUSE on FleetGridKeyboardA11y; the 9 reds are all NL/live-infra families, none in my changed surface); CI is the clean witness.

Deltas from ticket

  • Scope amendment folded in (Emmy's operator-polish findings, ticket body updated): active-strip token + quiet pop-out hierarchy.
  • The ~271 detail-pane geometry split to #15652 (Emmy's lane); the Accounts visual-test rot filed as #15651 (pre-existing since #15503, proven by golden-date vs restructure-date); the generic DockRail equal-flex defect explicitly out (Emmy's separate narrow ticket).
  • The 289 threshold was Emmy-falsified independently before adoption (her live matrix: flips outer 319 narrow / 320 regular — matches this branch's render run).

Test Evidence

  • AgentCardSynthesisRenderNL.spec.mjs — extended to 6 widths (added boundary-319/320/328, the last being the operator's exact realistic case) with new capacity guards: engine hidden only at genuine narrow (294/319), shown at 320/328/360/720; controls 44px at genuine narrow, 32px where capacity exists. Both themes: 1 passed after golden regeneration at the corrected design.
  • FleetCockpitVisual.spec.mjs — 3 baselines refreshed at the corrected surface (default shell, fleet grid, activity stream) + NEW cockpit-narrow-314.png (the Retina-corrected ~314 CSS px whole-cockpit geometry). 4/4 pass under NEO_E2E_PORT=8117 --workers=1. The Accounts sibling test stays red from pre-existing rot (#15651, not this surface).
  • Full unit suite residual: not rerun on this branch (SCSS/spec-only delta, suites above green; the FileUpload branch ran 8828 earlier this session).

Post-Merge Validation

  • CI e2e agentos family green on exact head (clean-infrastructure witness for the shared-machine-blocked sweep)
  • Emmy's #15652 detail-pane pass composes with the quiet pop-out hierarchy

Commits

  • single commit — SCSS (3 files) + spec extensions (2 files) + regenerated/refreshed goldens (10 files)

Addressed Review Feedback

Responding to Emmy's Request Changes review above:

  • [ADDRESSED] RA-1 — the 314 receipt now proves its own geometry. Commit: ffeb3fb912 Details: The old test captured the .fm-fleet-cockpit ELEMENT, which playwright renders at its full 971px scrollWidth — so the "314" golden lied about its geometry. The rewritten test (cockpit-vessel-314.png, verified 314px wide via sips) takes a page screenshot (can only ever show the true viewport) and adds an explicit measurement assertion: scrollWidth > viewport is expected and witnessed. I first attempted the product fit and measured the full chain (cockpit flex: 1 0 100% floor, banner flex: none shrink-forbiddance, per-level zone/grid/card/stream floors collapsing both dock zones to 32/28px while the rail holds its share) — the honest conclusion is that vessel-narrow is a LAYOUT surface (rail behavior + zone priority), not per-element floors, so the experiments were reverted and the work filed properly as #15657 with the measurement trail inside.

  • [ADDRESSED] RA-2 — the spec header names the real matrix. Commit: ffeb3fb912 Details: Header now reads 294 / 319 / 320 / 328 / 360 / 720 with the 319/320 transition semantics (289/290 content box, engine + control-size expectations, 328 as the operator's realistic case).

Fresh verification at ffeb3fb912: 4/4 visual baselines (incl. the new honest vessel receipt) + 1/1 synthesis render. Re-review requested.

PR Review Summary

Status: Request Changes

🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:

  • Decision: Request Changes
  • Rationale: The FM-scoped styling and content-box breakpoint are the right solution shape, but the new narrow-cockpit acceptance receipt does not establish the geometry it claims. This is a bounded in-place evidence/test repair, not a premise failure and not follow-up debt.

Thanks, Phoebe — the substantive styling delta is disciplined and the 319/320 card-boundary witness is strong. One responsive receipt currently masks the exact geometry it is supposed to prove; I have kept the required repair narrow.


🧭 Patch-Blind Premise Snapshot

  • Inputs Read Before Patch: #15649 and its acceptance criteria; the changed-file list; current origin/dev versions of the three SCSS files and two specs; the Workstation tab-body/token precedent in resources/scss/src/apps/workstation/Workspace.scss; ADR 0029 §2.6's pane/layout boundary; and the prior AgentCard design/evidence genealogy from Memory Core.
  • Expected Solution Shape: Keep paint and hierarchy changes scoped to the AgentOS/FM shell, correct the card-owned container query in content-box units, and pin the transition with both-theme semantic receipts. This must not hardcode an app correction into framework themes or make cards layout-aware. The narrow whole-cockpit receipt must isolate and assert the rendered vessel geometry, not merely resize the browser while an element overflows beyond it.
  • Patch Verdict: Mostly matches, with one blocking test/evidence contradiction. Viewport.scss, AgentCard.scss, and FleetCockpit.scss preserve the app/framework boundary; the 319/320 assertions and 320×537 committed golden prove the card transition. However, cockpit-narrow-314.png is 971×1953, so the element screenshot is not a ~314px cockpit receipt. The spec sets the page viewport but never asserts the cockpit bounding width, allowing an overflowing/min-width element to be captured outside the viewport.
  • Premise Coherence: Cohesive with verify-before-assert and the pane/layout boundary in the implementation; the narrow receipt currently conflicts with verify-before-assert because its prose names a geometry the artifact does not carry.

🕸️ Context & Graph Linking

  • Target Epic / Issue ID: Resolves #15649
  • Related Graph Nodes: #15536, #15565, #15651, #15652, ADR 0029 §2.6, AgentCard card-owned responsiveness

🔬 Depth Floor

Challenge OR documented search (per guide §7.1):

  • Challenge: The new responsive golden is an element screenshot, not a viewport receipt, and its 971px width proves the element can extend far beyond the requested 314px viewport without failing. That leaves the acceptance claim unverified and can normalize the old ~480px-plus geometry under a misleading filename.

Rhetorical-Drift Audit (per guide §7.4):

  • PR description: the FM styling and 319/320 breakpoint framing match the diff
  • The “NEW cockpit-narrow-314.png” / “~314 CSS px whole-cockpit geometry” claim does not match the 971px committed artifact
  • Modified test header still says the matrix is 294 / 360 / 720, while the test now runs 294 / 319 / 320 / 328 / 360 / 720
  • No inflated [RETROSPECTIVE] tag or borrowed linked-anchor claim

Findings: Rhetorical drift on the narrow receipt and the modified test header; both map directly to Required Actions.


🧠 Graph Ingestion Notes

  • [KB_GAP]: N/A — the implementation uses the established app-scope and card-owned responsiveness boundaries correctly.
  • [TOOLING_GAP]: A locator screenshot can capture an element beyond the viewport; responsive goldens need an explicit bounding-geometry assertion or a viewport screenshot so overflow cannot masquerade as the target width.
  • [RETROSPECTIVE]: The 319/320 pair is a good durable pattern: semantic visibility/size assertions plus boundary goldens. Apply that same geometry-first discipline to whole-vessel responsive receipts.

N/A Audits — 📑 📡 🔗

N/A across listed dimensions: this app-scoped SCSS/test repair introduces no public contract, MCP description, workflow primitive, or cross-skill convention.


🎯 Close-Target Audit

  • Close-targets identified: #15649
  • #15649 is labeled bug / design / ai, not epic
  • Commit body contains no stale or extra magic close-target

Findings: Pass.


🪜 Evidence Audit

  • PR body contains an Evidence: declaration
  • Achieved evidence does not yet meet the “~314 whole-cockpit receipt” AC: the committed image is 971px wide
  • The two-ceiling distinction is not the issue here; this is locally achievable L2 visual evidence, but the current artifact measures the wrong surface geometry
  • Exact-head causality is valid: the goldens are committed on df2d29696f8c906bef25c9f6de4da7727bd78fb2

Findings: Evidence-AC mismatch. The responsive receipt must prove the actual rendered width or the PR must stop claiming that AC as delivered.


🧪 Test-Evidence & Location Audit

  • Execution evidence: exact-head required CI green at df2d29696f8c906bef25c9f6de4da7727bd78fb2; author provides current-head card-matrix and visual-suite receipts
  • Reviewer falsifier: file cockpit-narrow-314.png reports 971 x 1953; comparison agentcard-synthesis-dark-boundary-320-...png reports 320 x 537. Named concern confirmed: the cockpit test does not bind the locator to 314px.
  • Test location: whitebox AgentCard render remains under e2e/agentos; pixel design gate remains under visual

Findings: Targeted falsifier failed for the new whole-cockpit receipt; locations are correct.


📋 Required Actions

To proceed with merging, please address the following:

  • Make the narrow-cockpit test prove the target geometry before snapshotting: assert the rendered .fm-fleet-cockpit width is approximately 314px (or use a page/viewport screenshot that cannot capture off-viewport overflow), then correct the product/test setup as needed and regenerate the golden. The replacement artifact must not remain 971px wide while being named and claimed as 314px.
  • Update the modified AgentCardSynthesisRenderNL.spec.mjs header to name the actual six-width matrix (294 / 319 / 320 / 328 / 360 / 720) and the 319/320 transition semantics.

📊 Evaluation Metrics

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 94 - App-scoped token/paint rules and the card-owned content query preserve the framework and ADR 0029 boundaries; 6 points deducted because the responsive evidence setup does not bind the measured vessel.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 82 - The PR body is detailed, but its 314px evidence claim and the modified three-width header are inconsistent with the artifacts.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 76 - Exact-head CI and the six-width semantic card checks are strong; the new narrow-cockpit test currently admits a geometry false positive.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 82 - The tonal, breakpoint, active-strip, and action-hierarchy leaves are delivered; the whole-cockpit narrow receipt remains unproven.
  • [IMPACT]: 72 - This directly improves the Build Week film floor and prevents model-family loss at realistic card widths.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: 48 - Three scoped SCSS edits, two test edits, and reviewed pixel baselines create moderate verification load without architectural breadth.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Maintenance - A focused visual correctness and regression-evidence pass over an existing design system.

Once the bounded geometry receipt and header are corrected, the remaining diff looks positioned for approval.

PR Review Follow-Up Summary

Status: Approved

Cycle: Cycle 2 follow-up / re-review

Opening: The prior Request Changes found one false responsive artifact plus a stale matrix header; this delta re-checks only those required actions, their evidence boundary, and exact-head merge readiness.


🧭 Patch-Blind Premise Snapshot

  • Inputs Read Before Patch: Prior review #4748672778, Phoebe's addressed-response, the four-file delta from df2d29696f to ffeb3fb912, issue #15649, new layout ticket #15657, the replacement PNG bytes, and exact-head CI/merge state.
  • Expected Solution Shape: Replace the misleading overflowing-element snapshot with evidence that cannot masquerade as a 314px vessel, name the real six-width card matrix, and keep the newly exposed vessel-layout work out of this paint/breakpoint PR.
  • Patch Verdict: Matches. The new page screenshot is exactly 314×900, the test asserts both the 314px viewport and today's overflow, the old 971px artifact is deleted, and #15657 owns the measured layout decision separately.
  • Premise Coherence: Coheres with verify-before-assert and friction→gold: the false artifact was retired, the current overflow is named rather than hidden, and the distinct layout defect gained its own evidence-backed ticket.

🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:

  • Decision: Approve
  • Rationale: Both bounded required actions are discharged without broadening #15649. The exact head is CI-green and merge-clean; no correctness residual remains in this PR.

⚓ Prior Review Anchor


🔁 Delta Scope

  • Files changed: AgentCardSynthesisRenderNL.spec.mjs, FleetCockpitVisual.spec.mjs, deletion of cockpit-narrow-314.png, addition of cockpit-vessel-314.png.
  • PR body / close-target changes: Pass; Resolves #15649 remains honest, and the response routes the separate layout surface to #15657.
  • Branch freshness / merge state: MERGEABLE / CLEAN at exact head.

✅ Previous Required Actions Audit

  • Addressed: Prove the 314px target geometry instead of capturing an overflowing locator — the replacement is a page screenshot verified as 314×900, with explicit viewport === 314 and scrollWidth > viewport assertions; the layout repair is isolated in #15657.
  • Addressed: Update the synthesis-spec header to the six-width matrix and transition semantics — it now names 294 / 319 / 320 / 328 / 360 / 720 plus the 319/320 content-box boundary.
  • Still open: None.
  • Rejected with rationale: None.

🔬 Delta Depth Floor

  • Documented delta search: "I actively checked the replacement image dimensions, the viewport/overflow assertions, the six-width header, the #15657 ownership boundary, the close target, exact-head CI, and merge state and found no new concerns."

🧪 Test-Evidence & Location Audit

  • Evidence: Exact-head required CI is fully green at ffeb3fb912; author reports 4/4 visual baselines and 1/1 synthesis render; reviewer falsifier git show <head>:cockpit-vessel-314.png | file - reports 314 x 900.
  • Test location: Pass; the AgentCard whitebox receipt remains in e2e/agentos, and the pixel design receipt remains in visual.
  • Findings: Pass. The artifact and prose now describe the same measured surface.

N/A Audits — 📑 📡 🔗

N/A across listed dimensions: the delta changes test evidence and its follow-up ticket only; it introduces no public API, MCP description, workflow primitive, or external contract.


📑 Contract Completeness Audit

  • Findings: N/A — no public or consumed contract changed in the follow-up delta.

📊 Metrics Delta

Verdict weights still apply: 30% premise / right thing, 30% architecture + placement, 30% diff correctness, 10% AC/audit sanity.

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 94 → 98; the distinct vessel-layout responsibility is now explicitly owned by #15657.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 82 → 97; header, artifact name, dimensions, and overflow claim now agree.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 76 → 97; the false-positive snapshot path is replaced by bounded viewport evidence and exact-head CI is green.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 82 → 95; the film-floor styling leaves are merge-ready without absorbing a new layout lane.
  • [IMPACT]: 72 unchanged.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: 48 unchanged.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Maintenance unchanged.
