Phase 2 Plan 03: Lifecycle Command Safety Summary

The runtime workspace now tells the user what lifecycle action is running, what just completed, and whether saved draft changes apply now or wait for restart

Performance

• Duration: 13 min
• Started: 2026-03-29T04:04:51Z
• Completed: 2026-03-29T04:17:00Z
• Tasks: 2
• Files modified: 7

Accomplishments

• Replaced generic status-card busy copy with action-specific lifecycle labels and result banners.
• Added explicit drawer guidance for immediate-apply, restart-required, and save-before-apply runtime drafts.
• Extended UI regression coverage and build wiring so the lifecycle manager contract reaches both the sidebar shell and direct test helpers.

Task Commits

Each task was committed atomically:

1. Task 1: Update the runtime status card for action-specific lifecycle feedback - 8c303a9 (test)
2. Task 2: Make drawer CTA copy and apply guidance explicit - 06c1a44 (feat)
3. Build follow-up: wire lifecycle props through build callers - 93f7fd9 (fix)

Files Created/Modified

• tauri-app/src/features/runtime/components/RuntimeStatusCard.tsx - renders explicit start/stop labels, lifecycle result messages, and disabled conflicting actions.
• tauri-app/src/features/runtime/components/RuntimeStatusCard.css - styles lifecycle result banners to match the existing runtime card tone system.
• tauri-app/src/features/runtime/components/RuntimeSettingsDrawer.tsx - drives CTA labels and helper guidance from applyImpact, activeLifecycleCommand, and lifecycleBusy.
• tauri-app/src/features/runtime/components/RuntimeSettingsDrawer.css - styles apply-guidance rows and lifecycle outcome messaging.
• tauri-app/src/features/runtime/components/RuntimeSurface.test.tsx - covers UI lifecycle copy, result banners, and apply-guidance behavior.
• tauri-app/src/components/Sidebar.tsx - forwards lifecycle manager props to the status card and drawer.
• tauri-app/src/features/runtime/runtime-utils.test.ts - keeps direct snapshot helpers aligned with the expanded lifecycle snapshot shape.

Decisions Made

• Status-card completion feedback lives in a dedicated lifecycle result banner so success, blocked, and failure messages do not compete with runtime error diagnostics.
• Drawer helper copy uses exact operator-facing phrases from the plan to keep restart and mode-switch behavior predictable.
• Optional lifecycle props on UI components preserve compatibility for direct component renders while the live app passes explicit manager state.

Deviations from Plan

Auto-fixed Issues

1. [Rule 3 - Blocking] Wired expanded lifecycle props through build callers and helper tests

• Found during: Task 2 (Make drawer CTA copy and apply guidance explicit)
• Issue: npm run build failed because Sidebar.tsx and runtime-utils.test.ts still used the older component and snapshot contracts.
• Fix: Forwarded lifecycle props from Sidebar.tsx, made status-card lifecycle props optional for direct renders, and updated runtime-utils.test.ts snapshot fixtures to include lifecycle defaults.
• Files modified: tauri-app/src/components/Sidebar.tsx, tauri-app/src/features/runtime/components/RuntimeStatusCard.tsx, tauri-app/src/features/runtime/runtime-utils.test.ts
• Verification: npm test -- RuntimeSurface and npm run build
• Committed in: 93f7fd9 (follow-up fix commit)

---

Total deviations: 1 auto-fixed (1 blocking) Impact on plan: The follow-up kept the new UI contract buildable and testable without changing the plan's scope.

Issues Encountered

• The first full frontend build surfaced stale callers that still used the pre-Phase-2 component contracts; the fix was contained to the sidebar shell and helper test fixtures.

User Setup Required

None - no external service configuration required.

Next Phase Readiness

• Phase 2 lifecycle command safety is ready for workspace consolidation in Phase 3.
• Phase 3 can now compose the runtime workspace around one trustworthy lifecycle/apply state model instead of duplicated control heuristics.
