- Mount WorkspacesService.startInitialSelection in the runtime apply (the
one-shot baseline follower shipped in 98633b5aa without a caller): a
restored current session wins, an explicit clear stays cleared, a failed
connect retries on the next baseline projection.
- Cover the policy in client-apply and the assembled workspace-flow
snapshot; startup now lands in the recent Workspace's blank session, so
the draft-carry scenario starts from the hero directly.
- Bring docs along: startup-selection paragraphs in the session-scope RFC
note (both languages), bilingual README pairs for the four new client
packages, doc-graph regeneration with client-declared events exempt from
the dispatcher requirement (client dispatch sites are structurally
invisible to the host-side ts.Program), and pairing re-records.
- gate-consolidation note: parseArgs strict mode DOES reject a
dash-leading token where a value is expected (verified with node);
only the duplicate-option behavior differs
- YAML roll-up item: scripts/verify-cordis-config.ts is a fourth
js-yaml !!js tag definition the inventory missed
Both EN+ZH, pairs re-recorded.
PR #679 implemented the swap and falsified the note's parity premise:
vitest's fake clock does not intercept node:timers/promises, so the
change traded deterministic fast tests (llm-retry ~4s->~10s real
sleeps, two pty teardown tests rewritten real-time, a weakened
workflow grace-timer guard) for ~10 deleted lines. Moved the note
proposed -> rejected with the verdict on the Status line; the frozen
proposal body is kept per the rejected-lifecycle contract.
Every PR that changes product-user-visible GUI behavior now includes a
demonstration GIF with real provenance (that branch's built tree, real
key, real model rounds). Recording stays side-effect-free; the skill
gains a bounded final publication step: GIFs go on an append-only
orphan assets branch (one per PR series) and embed via the blob URL
with ?raw=true, never on the PR branch itself.
Folds in the operational lessons from the Code Mode UI series:
.playwright-mcp/ screenshot roots (now gitignored), per-PR staging and
precise server teardown, one-call DOM polling for transient states,
exact-text completion predicates, prompt engineering for UI states,
and the export-before-invoke GIF_SKILL_DIR encoder pitfall.
Agent Note: implemented/process/2026-07-26-gui-pr-gif-evidence-and-assets-branch (+ zh pair); the 2026-07-23 recording note now defers publication policy to it.
Validate replay sidecars and cross-copy failure facts, make browser console tripwires and macOS temp paths deterministic, and wait for asynchronous TUI resume details. Keep the owning docs, translations, and generated catalog aligned.
Conflict resolution: scripts/type-equiv.manifest.json takes master's new
paired-derivative format (one primary entry per pair) and re-adds this
stack's CodeDispatchLog entry in that format. zh README pairs brought
along for the dispatch-log arm (spill-policy behavior/limitations bullets,
tools limitation bullet now pointing at the shipped bounding).
