## Launch prompt
|
|
|
|
Operator opened by asking what was in the Gitea backlog, then directed a
|
|
brainstorming session for a new feature: *"We should also show the proposed change
|
|
in the Markdown file in the same way. The proposed change in the markdown file
|
|
should be human-editable, show the diff just like it would after the change is
|
|
completed in both the markdown file and the webview as the change is made. The
|
|
diff in both the markdown file and preview webview should be exactly as they will
|
|
be shown if the edit is accepted. Create a new working tree in a directory other
|
|
than main for this work."* — extended mid-session with: *"replace the checkbox
|
|
icon and 'x' icon on the proposed change as 'Accept' and 'Reject'. Each should
|
|
have an arrow next to them for a dropdown that is 'Accept All' or 'Reject All'.
|
|
One should be able to accept, reject, accept all, or reject all from either the
|
|
markdown file or the web preview file."*
|
|
|
|
## Pre-state
|
|
|
|
- Branch `main`, clean/pushed baseline (after FF). Latest shipped work: #60 live
|
|
turn progress (session 0056, PR #61). Session 0057 (a `cowriting.edit`/`routeEdit`
|
|
refactor) still **in-flight** sharing the checkout.
|
|
- Backlog at session start (8 open): #59 (P1 bug, Apple-Events prompt), #54/#57/#58
|
|
(P2), #32/#35/#40 (P3), #62 (untriaged).
|
|
|
|
## Turn-by-turn arc
|
|
|
|
1. **Backlog query** — listed the 8 open Gitea issues for `benstull/vscode-cowriting-plugin`
|
|
by priority; flagged #62 as the only untriaged item.
|
|
2. **Session routing** — operator's feature request was feature-shaped *and*
|
|
reversed a locked invariant (F10/INV-32 "clean editor"), so the session type
|
|
was ambiguous. Asked; operator chose **brainstorm a spec first**. Routed via
|
|
`wgl-brainstorming`; claimed session **0058**.
|
|
3. **Isolation** — session 0057 still in-flight on the shared checkout → created an
|
|
isolated worktree `vscode-cowriting-plugin-s58` on branch
|
|
`s58-inline-editor-diff` off `origin/main` (§5.4).
|
|
4. **Exploration** — dispatched an Explore agent that mapped five areas: webview
|
|
render engine (`trackChangesModel.ts`), F4 proposal model + seam, the F10
|
|
clean-editor decision (zero editor decorations remain), controllers/wiring, and
|
|
commands/toolbar. Key constraint surfaced: **VS Code text editors cannot host
|
|
editable phantom text** — anything editable in the editor is buffer content;
|
|
decorations only style existing text or inject *non-editable* before/after
|
|
content.
|
|
5. **Four design forks (AskUserQuestion, with ASCII previews):**
|
|
- Editor model → **optimistic apply + decorations**.
|
|
- Timing → **on proposal** (not live token-stream into the editor).
|
|
- Editor affordance → **CodeLens `Accept ▾ / Reject ▾` + QuickPick dropdown**.
|
|
- (Operator-added) Control parity → Accept/Reject/Accept-all/Reject-all from
|
|
both surfaces; ✓/✗ superseded.
|
|
6. **Design presented** section-by-section; operator approved with "keep going"
|
|
(nodded the two flagged sub-decisions: dedicated `EditorProposalController`;
|
|
allow save of pending text).
|
|
7. **Anchor + spec** — filed Feature **#64** (`type/feature`, `priority/P2`) since
|
|
no tracker anchor existed; wrote `specs/coauthoring-inline-editor-diff.md`
|
|
(INV-48..54, reversing INV-10/INV-32). Self-review clean. Operator **approved**.
|
|
|
|
## Cut state
|
|
|
|
- Spec **graduated** → content repo `vscode-cowriting-plugin-content` at `80d5d1a`
|
|
(`specs/coauthoring-inline-editor-diff.md`).
|
|
- Feature **#64** filed + labelled.
|
|
- Worktree `vscode-cowriting-plugin-s58` (branch `s58-inline-editor-diff`) stands
|
|
ready for the downstream planning-and-executing session; no code committed this
|
|
session (brainstorming output is the spec only).
|
|
- Memory updated: `f12-inline-editor-diff-spec-graduated.md` + MEMORY.md index.
|
|
|
|
## Deferred decisions
|
|
|
|
No autonomous low-confidence calls — every fork was decided live with the operator
|
|
via AskUserQuestion, and the spec was operator-approved before submission. (The
|
|
two design sub-decisions — dedicated controller, allow-save-of-pending — were
|
|
flagged in the presented design and nodded by the operator.)
|
|
|
|
## Next-session prompt
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/goal Plan-and-execute #64 (F12 inline editable proposed-change diff in the Markdown editor) from specs/coauthoring-inline-editor-diff.md, in worktree vscode-cowriting-plugin-s58 (branch s58-inline-editor-diff); follow the spec's 5-slice Delivery Plan
|
|
```
