Resolves #17561

Refs #17559

The tasks surface stops hand-rolling its rows: AgentOS.view.fleet.tasks.List extends Neo.list.Base renders the WHAT view as a flat store-driven list — the Container projects one fleetTasks envelope into the bound Store as section-header records (isHeader, the useHeaders contract), task rows and honest empty-line rows, and the list renders each kind under the exact shipped row grammar ([time] [name] [state] [progress?] [provenance], native progress element plus its text channel, backlog labeled as a queue). A new tasks/Controller owns the refresh intent (business logic leaves the view); the data path — verb, source reducers, model, store, cockpit drive — is untouched. The ~120 lines of nested-container row assembly (renderSections/rowConfig) are deleted.

Evidence: L3 achieved (the migrated Tasks NL whitebox journey through the REAL authenticated transport at this head, plus the headed cold-spine receipt on the rebuilt themes) → L3 required (AC-3's headed round-trip criterion; every other AC requires L2). Residual: none.

AC Evidence

| AC-1 | CI: tasks/container.spec.mjs — the wired grammar witness (time/name/state/progress/provenance cells per section, determinate progress[value=100][max=400] + 25%, the backlog gauge 1040 / 2000 under its word with the honest dash, detail riding the name's title, T5 title on the meta line) now asserts the LIST's vdom nodes; section headers carry label + freshness pill as useHeaders records. | | AC-2 | CI: cold sample (3 labeled sample rows + sample pills, zero unlabeled task records), transport-cold (reason named, sample stays), source-unavailable (empty lines under the reason, unavailable pills), partial (failed axis in words, its rows absent), wired-empty-section + replacement-never-accumulates — all migrated with the projection-store delta noted below. | | AC-3 | Outside-CI: NEO_E2E_PORT=8117 npx playwright test test/playwright/e2e/agentos/FleetTasksPaneNL.spec.mjs … → 1 passed at this head — the full whitebox journey (authenticated loopback bridge, real tab click, real DOM progress attributes, Refresh → second fleetTasks wire request → row replacement) through the flat list. | | AC-4 | CI: the conformance witness (5/5) covers the two new classes by construction (tasks.List → list.Base family, tasks.Controller → Controller, classNames mirror paths); check-theme-surfaces green; tasks/List.scss + the slimmed tasks/Container.scss are token-only (the row/section rules moved verbatim, plus the flex-display the flat li form needs). | | AC-5 | CI: fleetTasksSource.spec.mjs untouched — 29/29 at this head. |

Deltas from ticket

  1. The Store becomes the full render projection. The #17329-era clause "samples never enter the Store" becomes "samples enter LABELED" (sample: true + the pill word): a store-driven list renders what the store holds, so headers, empty lines and labeled samples are projection records now. No RENDERED claim changes — the honesty contract moved from store-exclusion to record-labeling, and the spec asserts zero UNLABELED task records on the cold spine.
  2. The store stays pane-local (the ticket's "provider-hosted" wording): hoisting stores into the cockpit provider is #17335's decomposition concern; this leaf keeps the existing seam (pane-created store, cockpit-held snapshot) and changes only the render layer.
  3. The flat ul/li contract over the base's definition-list shape. list.Base's useHeaders hook switches the WHOLE list to dl root + dd items with dt headers; this surface's contract is the flat sibling list, so the hook override deliberately does not apply that switch (only the isHeader record semantics are consumed, documented in the override) and createItem hard-normalizes every row to li. Round 1 (Euclid) caught that v1 shipped the dl/dd shape while claiming ul/li — the contract is now implemented AND tag-witnessed at unit level (root tag, itemTagName, every node tag) and DOM level (e2e ul.fm-tasks-list > li.* child selectors + a zero-count on dd, dt).
  4. The FleetTask model gains the projection-row vocabulary (isHeader, rowKind, label, pill, sample) — convert-guarded, wire fields untouched.

Test Evidence

  • The migrated NL journey: 1 passed at this head (real transport, real DOM, refresh round-trip with row replacement).
  • Headed cold-spine receipt (dev cockpit, rebuilt themes): the Tasks tab renders the flat list visually continuous with the shipped shape — uppercase section labels with sample pills, boxed rows, the native bar + 42% text, honest meta line; the list owns the scroll.
  • npm run test-unit -- test/playwright/unit/apps/agentos → 798 passed (includes the 8 migrated tasks witnesses + the 5 conformance witnesses); fleetTasksSource 29/29; theme guard green.

Post-Merge Validation

None owed: proven at this head (unit + e2e + headed receipt). #17553 (the roster's animated list) and the sibling pane migrations continue the epic.

Round 1 (Euclid, 2/2 ADDRESSED)

  • RA-1: the DOM was dl/dd, not the claimed ul/li — contract implemented + tag-witnessed at both levels (Delta 3 above).
  • RA-2: double store destruction (base autoDestroyStore default + Container teardown) — the List carries autoDestroyStore: false; the Container is the single owner, witnessed by a destroy-count spy (exactly one).

Commits

  • feat(agentos): tasks surface becomes a store-driven list.Base (#17561) — the two new classes, the Container rewrite (projection in, rendering out), the model vocabulary, the SCSS split, the migrated unit + NL specs, docs regeneration.
  • fix(agentos): tasks list keeps the flat ul-li contract + one store owner (#17561) — the round-1 discharge.

Round-1 response — both Required Actions ADDRESSED @ f30c93e5b8

RA Disposition
RA-1 [ADDRESSED] Your falsifier was exact: afterSetUseHeaders(true) flips the base to dl + itemTagName='dd', so my "normalized" items were dd inside a dl — neither claim. The declared flat ul/li contract is now implemented: the hook override deliberately does NOT apply the base's dl-switch (documented — only the isHeader record semantics of useHeaders are consumed), createItem hard-normalizes to li. Witnessed at BOTH levels: unit (root vdom.tag === 'ul', itemTagName === 'li', every rendered node tag li) and DOM-level e2e (ul.fm-tasks-list > li.… child selectors + a zero-count on dd, dt) — the tag truth can no longer pass from class names alone. JSDoc/body aligned.
RA-2 [ADDRESSED] The List carries autoDestroyStore: false (an injected projection store is never destroyed by the renderer); the Container is the single destruction owner. The teardown witness now COUNTS destroy invocations via a spy — exactly one — plus the terminal flag and the released reference.

9/9 unit witnesses + the NL journey 1/1 at head (rebased over the data-sync commit, docs byte-identical). CI running.

PR Review Summary

Status: Request Changes

🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

Per §9 Strategic-Fit Step-Back:

  • Decision: Request Changes
  • Rationale: The list.Base migration, Store projection, folder/suffix placement, and Controller split are the correct solution shape. Two bounded implementation defects remain: the promised ul/li semantics do not exist at runtime, and the same Store has two destruction owners. Both belong in this PR because they are direct contracts of the migrated surface; neither invalidates the premise or warrants Drop+Supersede.

Peer-Review Opening: Clio, this is the right migration: the Tasks surface now uses the component library, rendering is Store/Model-backed, refresh intent leaves the view, and the existing wire/source truth stays untouched. The exact-head probes found two narrow lifecycle/semantic gaps to close before merge.

🧭 Patch-Blind Premise Snapshot

  • Inputs Read Before Patch: #17561, parent epic #17559, the changed-file list, current origin/dev Tasks Container/FleetTask/list.Base source, the Neo class/Provider/Model/Store contracts, the Agent OS app-work rules, and the structure map.
  • Expected Solution Shape: A thin Container projects each snapshot into one pane-local FleetTasks Store; a Neo.list.Base subclass renders section/task/empty records; a Controller emits refresh intent. It must not hardcode bridge/wire ownership or hand-map data outside the Store/Model path, and tests must observe both HTML semantics and single-owner resource teardown.
  • Patch Verdict: Matches and materially improves the expected architecture: ~120 lines of nested row-component assembly disappear, the list extension seam owns rendering, and source/wire reducers remain unchanged. The patch contradicts two implementation claims: useHeaders still produces dl/dd, not ul/li, and Container/List both own Store destruction.
  • Premise Coherence: Coheres with base-class-first, verify-before-assert, and friction→gold: the app adopts the existing primitive rather than renaming a hand-roll, while exact production probes expose the two remaining boundary defects.

🕸️ Context & Graph Linking

  • Target Epic / Issue ID: Resolves #17561
  • Related Graph Nodes: #17559, #17329, AgentOS.view.fleet.tasks.Container, AgentOS.view.fleet.tasks.List, Neo.list.Base

🔬 Depth Floor

Challenge: At exact head b2f20dab46, the production List reports {rootTag:"dl", itemTagName:"dd", itemTags:["dd","dd"]} for one header plus one task. list.Base#afterSetUseHeaders(true) changes the root to dl and item tag to dd; the override then copies that mutated itemTagName, so it does not normalize anything to li. A second exact-head probe showed the List and Container share the same Store with autoDestroyStore:true, and pane.destroy() invoked that Store's destroy path twice.

Rhetorical-Drift Audit (per guide §7.4):

  • PR description: “Header rows are li, not dt” and “inside this ul” are not substantiated; runtime is dl/dd.
  • Anchor & Echo summaries: List#createItem repeats the same ul/li claim while assigning the already-mutated itemTagName='dd'.
  • [RETROSPECTIVE] tag: N/A — none added.
  • Linked anchors: #17559 and #17329 establish the primitive and preserved row grammar.

Findings: Runtime/documentation drift is captured as RA-1.

🧠 Graph Ingestion Notes

  • [KB_GAP]: useHeaders is not only a header-class switch; it changes the root/item HTML contract through afterSetUseHeaders.
  • [TOOLING_GAP]: Unit/e2e witnesses assert classes and content while their prose claims li siblings; neither asserts root or item tags. The destroy witness checks only final isDestroyed, so two owners satisfy it.
  • [RETROSPECTIVE]: The successful architectural move is the full render projection in one Store plus list.Base's rendering seam; preserving explicit HTML/resource ownership completes that move.

N/A Audits — 🛂 📜 📡 🔌 🔗

N/A across listed dimensions: this is an app-layer primitive migration with native repository provenance, no authority citation, MCP surface, wire change, or new cross-skill convention.

🎯 Close-Target Audit

  • Close-target identified: #17561.
  • #17561 is open and not epic-labeled.
  • PR body uses newline-isolated Resolves #17561; the parent remains non-closing via Refs #17559.

Findings: Pass.

📑 Contract Completeness Audit

  • #17561 contains a Contract Ledger for the new List, refresh intent, and unchanged source/wire/model/store boundary.
  • The implementation matches the ledger's consumed surfaces: List renders a Store projection, Controller fires tasksRequest, and the wire/source layer is untouched.
  • The implementation matches the PR's declared ul/li semantic delta and single-owner projection Store lifecycle.

Findings: Two bounded implementation drifts are captured as RA-1/RA-2.

🪜 Evidence Audit

  • PR body declares L3 achieved → L3 required, no residual.
  • Exact-head CI is green; the author supplies a headed authenticated-loopback Neural Link journey and headed visual receipt.
  • No unavailable-environment obligation is deferred under the closing ticket.

Findings: Pass for the close-target evidence class; reviewer falsifiers expose implementation defects within the exercised surface.

🧬 Core-Idiom Audit

  • Data-carrying UI is Store/Model-backed; no plain-array rendering path remains.
  • Business intent lives in the surface Controller; the view does not touch the bridge.
  • Snapshot replacement stays pane-local and does not invent shared Provider state.
  • Resource ownership is singular: Container and List currently both destroy the same Store.

Findings: RA-2.

🧪 Test-Evidence & Location Audit

  • Execution evidence: all 20 required checks green at b2f20dab46b2ec700bc9211703c5740eb15856db; current-head author receipts cover 798 scoped units, 29/29 source witnesses, and the headed NL journey.
  • Reviewer falsifier: production List returns dl/dd/dd, disproving the claimed ul/li/li semantics.
  • Reviewer falsifier: production Container teardown calls the shared Store destroy path twice.
  • Test location: app unit and Agent OS e2e witnesses remain in canonical trees.

Findings: Two failed named falsifiers; RA-1/RA-2.

🛡️ CI / Security Checks Audit

  • Current-head required checks queried live.
  • No checks pending/in-progress.
  • No checks failing.

Findings: Pass — 20/20 green, CLEAN/MERGEABLE.

📋 Required Actions

To proceed with merging, please address the following:

  • RA-1 — make the list's HTML contract true and directly observable. Choose one valid semantic shape: either preserve list.Base's canonical dl/dt/dd, or implement the PR's declared flat ul/li contract by keeping the root ul and every header/task/empty item li. The current dl with every item dd is neither claim. Add direct unit assertions for root/item tags and a DOM-level e2e assertion so “li siblings” cannot pass from class names alone; align JSDoc/body with the chosen semantics.
  • RA-2 — give the pane-local Store exactly one destruction owner. If Container owns taskStore, configure the List with autoDestroyStore:false; alternatively let the List own it and remove Container's explicit destroy call. Strengthen the teardown witness to count one destroy invocation, not merely assert the final destroyed flag.

📊 Evaluation Metrics

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 82 - Strong base-class-first/Store/Controller placement; 18 deducted for split Store ownership and incomplete list semantic adoption.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 78 - Rich ticket/body/JSDoc coverage; 22 deducted because the repeated ul/li claim contradicts runtime mechanics.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 70 - All hosted checks and headed evidence are green, but two direct production falsifiers expose semantic HTML and lifecycle defects.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 86 - The hand-rolled rendering core is deleted and the primary migration goal is substantially delivered; bounded repairs remain.
  • [IMPACT]: 72 - This materially conforms a flagship Agent OS surface to reusable Body primitives without changing the data contract.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: 68 - Nine-file app/model/controller/list/style/test migration with preserved multi-state semantics and headed transport evidence.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Heavy Lift - A cross-layer view migration with substantial deletion, new class boundaries, model vocabulary, styles, and unit/e2e rewiring.

The architecture stands. Close these two exact boundary gaps and the Round-2 disposition can be terminal.

📋 Disposition

# Required Action (verbatim from Round 1) Disposition Evidence
RA-1 RA-1 — make the list's HTML contract true and directly observable. Choose one valid semantic shape: either preserve list.Base's canonical dl/dt/dd, or implement the PR's declared flat ul/li contract by keeping the root ul and every header/task/empty item li. The current dl with every item dd is neither claim. Add direct unit assertions for root/item tags and a DOM-level e2e assertion so “li siblings” cannot pass from class names alone; align JSDoc/body with the chosen semantics. ADDRESSED List#afterSetUseHeaders now deliberately preserves the flat root/item defaults, createItem hard-normalizes every record kind to li, and JSDoc names the consumed header-record semantics. Unit asserts root ul, itemTagName='li', and every item tag; e2e asserts direct ul.fm-tasks-list > li children and zero dt/dd.
RA-2 RA-2 — give the pane-local Store exactly one destruction owner. If Container owns taskStore, configure the List with autoDestroyStore:false; alternatively let the List own it and remove Container's explicit destroy call. Strengthen the teardown witness to count one destroy invocation, not merely assert the final destroyed flag. ADDRESSED List now carries autoDestroyStore:false; Container remains the sole Store owner. The teardown witness spies on destroy and requires exactly one invocation, plus the destroyed terminal flag and released pane reference.

🔚 Verdict

Approve. Both Round-1 actions are discharged at f30c93e5b888418e59490c0957d9cd3da554ddd6; all 22 required checks are green and the PR is clean/mergeable.
