|
||
|
||
> App: vscode-cowriting-plugin
|
||
> Date: 2026-06-10, 08:02–09:15 PST
|
||
> Type: brainstorming
|
||
> Goal: Brainstorm Gitea issue #6 (F3 — live human/Claude attribution in the
|
||
> buffer, git-native provenance) and write its Solution-Design spec.
|
||
> Outcome: **Spec produced, operator-approved, and graduated** —
|
||
> `vscode-cowriting-plugin-content/specs/coauthoring-attribution.md` (content
|
||
> repo commit `b7637d9`). All three forks issue #6 routed here are resolved.
|
||
|
||
## Launch prompt
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Let's brainstorm Gitea issue #6
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Plan
|
||
|
||
Brainstorming session for Gitea issue #6 — **F3: Live human/Claude attribution
|
||
in the buffer, git-native provenance** (the follow-on Solution-Design session
|
||
Epic #1 / Feature #6 route the F3 design fork to).
|
||
|
||
1. Orient: issue #6, the graduated spec
|
||
(`vscode-cowriting-plugin-content/specs/coauthoring-inner-loop.md` §6.3
|
||
`attributions[]`/`provenance`, §9 OPEN→F3/F4), F2 code on main.
|
||
2. Explore the design fork with the operator:
|
||
- machine-edit ingress (live `@cline/sdk` turn vs. programmatic apply vs. both)
|
||
- `attributions[]` shape on the shared `anchors`/`provenance` primitives
|
||
- mixed-edit split/merge granularity rules
|
||
3. Write the F3 Solution-Design spec locally under this repo's `specs/`.
|
||
4. Finalize submits the spec to the content repo's `specs/` collection.
|
||
|
||
## Pre-session state
|
||
|
||
- `main` clean at `df872c9` (session 0004's transcript commit); F2 (#4) shipped
|
||
via PR #5; F1/POC (#2) shipped earlier.
|
||
- Issue #6 (F3) freshly captured in session 0005 (tracked-lite capture session,
|
||
still `--INPROGRESS` at this session's claim — warned, proceeded; no overlap:
|
||
0005 captured the issue, 0006 brainstorms it).
|
||
- Parent spec `coauthoring-inner-loop.md` graduated; `attributions[]` and the
|
||
`Provenance` `agent` author reserved (INV-4); "where Claude runs +
|
||
provider/auth" explicitly deferred to "the first live `@cline/sdk` turn,
|
||
F3/F4" (§9 DEFERRED).
|
||
|
||
## Turn-by-turn arc
|
||
|
||
1. **Init.** Classified the opening prompt as brainstorming; claimed session
|
||
0006 (`--type brainstorming`, placeholder pushed at `8d406a8`). Local main
|
||
was behind 2 (sessions 0005/0006 placeholder commits) — fast-forwarded to a
|
||
clean pushed baseline.
|
||
2. **Orient.** Read issue #6 in full via the Gitea API; read the graduated
|
||
parent spec; surveyed F2's shipped units (`model.ts`, `anchorer.ts`,
|
||
`store.ts`, `threadController.ts`) to ground the design in real interfaces.
|
||
3. **Fork 1 — machine-edit ingress.** Operator chose **both**: a programmatic
|
||
`applyAgentEdit` seam (the attribution boundary F4 later drives) + a minimal
|
||
live `@cline/sdk` turn driving it.
|
||
4. **Fork 2 — provider/auth.** Operator asked whether `@cline/sdk` supports
|
||
Max/Pro-plan auth instead of API keys. Researched the installed SDK
|
||
(0.0.46): found the built-in **`claude-code` provider** ("Use Claude Code
|
||
SDK with Claude Pro/Max subscription", via `ai-sdk-provider-claude-code`),
|
||
plus Cline-account OAuth and `anthropic` API-key alternatives. Operator
|
||
chose **claude-code, + anthropic-key only if needed for testing**; driver
|
||
judged the fallback unnecessary (tests drive the seam, not the provider) —
|
||
logged as a deferred decision.
|
||
5. **Fork 3 — mixed-edit granularity.** Character-precise split + same-author
|
||
coalescing (INV-7). Whole-span flips and thresholds rejected as dishonest.
|
||
6. **Rendering.** Claude spans tinted + human gutter bar + toggle; unattributed
|
||
text plain; orphans → status-bar count.
|
||
7. **Live-turn UX.** Edit-selection command (selection + instruction input box
|
||
→ replacement text through the seam).
|
||
8. **Design presented** (decisions table, `attributions[]` shape, architecture
|
||
with two new vscode-free units, testing strategy, 6 slices) — approved.
|
||
9. **Spec written** to `specs/coauthoring-attribution.md` (this repo, local);
|
||
self-review fixed one ambiguity (orphan surfacing pinned to a status-bar
|
||
count). Operator reviewed and approved ("I'm happy with it").
|
||
10. **Finalize.** Submitted the spec to the content repo `specs/` collection
|
||
with `--status graduated` (autonomous default) → `b7637d9`. Removed the
|
||
local untracked copy per the F2/session-0003 precedent (content repo is the
|
||
canonical home; app-repo tree left clean). Memory updated.
|
||
|
||
## Cut state (end of session)
|
||
|
||
| Repo | State |
|
||
| --- | --- |
|
||
| `benstull/vscode-cowriting-plugin` | `main` clean at `8d406a8` (transcript placeholders only; no code changes this session) |
|
||
| `benstull/vscode-cowriting-plugin-content` | `main` at `b7637d9` — **specs/coauthoring-attribution.md added, status: graduated** |
|
||
|
||
Design decisions locked (spec §6.7/§9 — don't relitigate):
|
||
ingress = seam (`applyAgentEdit`, INV-9) + minimal live turn (edit-selection
|
||
command); auth = `claude-code` provider only, zero extension-held credentials
|
||
(INV-8); granularity = char-precise split + coalesce (INV-7); record =
|
||
span-list on shared `anchors` ({id, anchorId, author, createdAt, updatedAt,
|
||
turnId?}), orphanhood resolve-time; rendering = Claude tint + human gutter +
|
||
toggle; slices = SLICE-1..6; E2E drives the seam, **no LLM in CI**; live turn =
|
||
documented manual smoke.
|
||
|
||
## Deferred decisions
|
||
|
||
- Operator delegated "anthropic-key fallback if necessary for testing" — driver
|
||
judged it NOT necessary (tests drive the apply-edit seam, not the provider;
|
||
live turn gets a manual smoke) and specced `claude-code` provider only, with
|
||
the API-key path deferred to an OPEN item. (specs/coauthoring-attribution.md
|
||
§6.7, §9)
|
||
- Local spec copy removed from the app repo working tree after submission
|
||
(content repo is the canonical home, per the session-0003/F2 precedent) — the
|
||
alternative was committing a duplicate copy to the app repo.
|
||
|
||
## What lands on the operator's plate
|
||
|
||
- Nothing blocking. Session 0005 (capture) is still `--INPROGRESS` in the
|
||
session history — adopt/finalize it whenever convenient.
|
||
- The live-turn smoke test (when F3 is built) needs this machine's Claude Code
|
||
signed in — already true today.
|
||
|
||
## Prompt the operator can paste into the next session
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
/goal Build F3 (#6) — live human/Claude attribution — in a planning-and-executing session: write the just-in-time plan from vscode-cowriting-plugin-content/specs/coauthoring-attribution.md (§7.2 SLICE-1..6) and execute it on the F2 model. Host E2E drives the applyAgentEdit seam (no LLM in CI); the live claude-code turn gets a documented manual smoke.
