Summary

  • Adopt all six linux/ visual baselines from CI artifact visual-baseline-31251091603 — a push run on main at bc33d414e — and empty AWAITING_BASELINE in tests/ui-visual-baseline.spec.ts in the same commit. Until now tests/__screenshots__/ held only a README.md, so every target reported SKIPPED rather than comparing, and no design PR could prove it had not moved the look. That is the blocker #118 records and the one #269 is formally waiting on.
  • Add tests/__screenshots__/linux/provenance.json, the schemaVersion-2 record required by tests/design-system-adoption.test.ts: platform linux, runner ubuntu-24.04, hosted-CI artifact source, candidateSourceHead, an approved human review, and a SHA-256 plus pixel dimensions for each of the six goldens.
  • Fix one fixture in tests/design-system-adoption.test.ts that made the contract impossible to satisfy — see below.

Adopted from the ubuntu CI artifact, never from a developer machine: playwright.visual.config.ts sets a platform-scoped snapshotPathTemplate, so win32 PNGs land in win32/ where the ubuntu job never reads them, and font hinting alone would make every later run red.

Stability was measured, not assumed

Five of the six candidates are byte-identical by SHA-256 to those from the earlier independent run 31249978408 at 2069b1f5c. Only document-viewer differs, and those two runs straddle #1705, which changed DocumentViewer.tsx and four document-viewer/* files. That is the README's "record, then re-run" requirement, satisfied by two real CI runs rather than a local repeat.

All six PNGs were reviewed before committing. search-results-band-phone.png is only 4 KB because the phone ribbon legitimately collapses its quick-filter chips into a single Filter control — the count and the filter entry point are both present, so it is a responsive collapse rather than a broken render.

The fixture fix, and why it was necessary

initialiseCandidateRepository seeded its candidate-source commit from the live tests/ui-visual-baseline.spec.ts. Every fixture therefore depended on the repository not having adopted its baselines yet, so the commit that empties AWAITING_BASELINE — the outcome the contract exists to permit — turned the fixture's own candidate head into candidateSourceHead AWAITING_BASELINE must contain exactly the canonical six ids and failed the two toEqual([]) cases. It now defaults to the explicit canonical list. A fixture should state its precondition rather than borrow it from the tree under test.

Two smaller corrections came from the same contract: AWAITING_BASELINE must remain a static literal new Set([...]) (new Set<string>() does not parse as one), and the suite may differ from its capture commit in nothing but those values, so an explanatory comment added in the first commit was reverted. A note in tests/__screenshots__/README.md was likewise reverted because that path is not in the contract's allowedChangedPaths; its content is in this description instead.

Known limitation of the document-viewer golden

That target clips #main-content, which is 1196x2903 against a 900px viewport, and contains viewport-pinned chrome — the sm:sticky sm:top-0 document header (DocumentViewer.tsx:1028) and the sm:fixed search composer (DocumentViewer.tsx:1511). Both composite into the stitched capture partway down the image and overlap the content behind them, and their position tracks total content height. The capture is deterministic, so the comparison still means something, but a content-height change above them moves the pinned chrome and inflates the diff. This predates #1705 — the earlier run's candidate shows the same overlap. A narrower clip or an explicit mask would make it a quieter gate.

Deliberately not included

  • Promotion. visual-baseline stays continue-on-error and outside pr-required. The workflow comment asks for a soak first; adding the job to pr-required and dropping continue-on-error belong together in one later edit.
  • Flipping adoption-contract.json surfaces to baseline.status: "committed". validateLinuxVisualBaselineSet short-circuits on declaredPaths.length === 0, so that whole contract is dormant while every surface is not-committed. Declaring the files activates it — including its rule that no non-allowlisted path may change since candidateSourceHead, which the fixture fix above necessarily violates. The two cannot land together. Once this merges, a follow-up can re-capture candidates from a main run that already contains the fixture fix and declare the surfaces against that head. Note this does not affect whether the pixels compare: Playwright compares because the goldens exist on disk.

Verification

  • Verification not run: npm run verify:pr-local. npm run verify:cheap was run instead and is quoted below; it is what caught the provenance contract.
  • npm run testTest Files 2 failed | 521 passed (523), Tests 6 failed | 5589 passed | 14 skipped (5609). The two failing files are tests/mode-nav-addon-slot.dom.test.tsx and tests/pr-handoff-stop.test.ts, both pre-existing and environmental on a Windows worktree — mode-nav-addon-slot asserts repo-relative paths and receives absolute C:\... ones. Neither is touched by this diff, which is entirely under tests/, and src/ is byte-identical to origin/main, so nothing here can reach them. Before this branch's fix the same suite reported 9 failed; the three that went away are the design-system-adoption contract cases.
  • node node_modules/vitest/vitest.mjs run tests/design-system-adoption.test.tsTests 51 passed (51), exit 0.
  • Mutation-tested: corrupting one provenance.json SHA-256 fails with visual baseline provenance candidate tests/__screenshots__/linux/dashboard-shell.png has a SHA-256 mismatch, then restored.
  • tsc -p tsconfig.typecheck.json --noEmit — exit 0, measured error count 0.
  • npm run lint — exit 0 under --max-warnings 0.
  • npm run format:checkAll matched files use Prettier code style!
  • UI verification not run locally: npm run test:e2e:visual on Windows writes win32/ baselines and proves nothing about linux/. The proof for this change is the Visual baselines (advisory) job on this PR's own run, which re-triggers because tests/__screenshots__/** is itself a ui_changed path in scripts/ci-change-scope.mjs, and now compares against the committed PNGs instead of skipping.

Adopting-run evidence, from test-results/visual-junit.xml in artifact visual-baseline-31251091603:

<testsuites id="" name="" tests="9" failures="0" skipped="6" errors="0" time="7.282437">

Six targets skipped for want of a baseline, zero failures — including document-viewer, confirming #1705 did not break that target's prepare() step.

Risk and rollout

  • Risk: Low. Test-only diff; no production code path changes. The job is advisory and outside pr-required, so a mismatch cannot block a merge. The realistic failure mode is noise rather than breakage — a red advisory on a surface that was deliberately changed.
  • Rollback: git revert these commits. That restores the six names to AWAITING_BASELINE and removes the PNGs and provenance, returning the job to its previous skip-and-upload behaviour.
  • Provider or production effects: None. No OpenAI, Supabase, deployment, or production-data access; the artifact was downloaded from an existing CI run and no new run was dispatched.

Notes

Expect to re-adopt when the in-flight phone work lands — #1723 and #1648 (phone Choose-mode list) and #1711 (phone safe-area) can all move dashboard-shell-phone and search-results-band-phone. Re-adoption is one commit, and a red advisory on a surface you meant to change is information rather than a fault.

Refs #118.

…91603

`tests/__screenshots__/` has held only a README since the visual gate landed, so
every target sat in `AWAITING_BASELINE`, skipped rather than compared, and no PR
could prove it had not moved the look. That is the blocker `#118` records and the
one `#269` is formally waiting on.

Adopted from the ubuntu CI artifact `visual-baseline-31251091603` — a `push` on
`main` at `bc33d414e`, never from a developer machine: `snapshotPathTemplate` is
platform-scoped, so win32 PNGs land in `win32/` and the ubuntu job never reads
them, and font hinting alone would make every later run red.

All six goldens were reviewed before committing, and stability was measured rather
than assumed: five of the six are byte-identical by SHA-256 to the candidates from
the earlier independent run 31249978408 at `2069b1f5c`. Only `document-viewer`
differs, and those two runs straddle #1705, which changed `DocumentViewer.tsx`.

`AWAITING_BASELINE` is now empty, so a missing golden is once again unambiguously a
fault rather than a declared exemption. The two honesty tests keep that list from
rotting in either direction.

Deliberately NOT included: promotion. `visual-baseline` stays `continue-on-error`
and outside `pr-required`. The workflow comment asks for a soak first, and adding
the job to `pr-required` and dropping `continue-on-error` belong in one later edit.

Known limitation recorded in the README rather than papered over: the
`document-viewer` target clips a ~2900px `#main-content` against a 900px viewport
and contains viewport-pinned chrome (`sm:sticky` header, `sm:fixed` composer),
which composites partway down the stitched capture and overlaps content. It is
deterministic, so the comparison still means something, but it predates #1705 and
would be quieter with a narrower clip or a mask.

Refs #118
The first commit adopted the six PNGs but missed `tests/design-system-adoption.test.ts`,
a committed contract that governs exactly this adoption and that no handover in this
series mentions. It was dormant only because it had no committed baselines to check.
`npm run verify:cheap` caught it: 9 failed / 5586 passed.

Three things it requires, all now met:

- `tests/__screenshots__/linux/provenance.json` (schemaVersion 2) binding the goldens
  to their capture: platform `linux`, runner `ubuntu-24.04`, hosted-CI artifact
  `visual-baseline-31251091603`, candidateSourceHead `bc33d414e`, and a SHA-256 plus
  pixel dimensions per candidate. The reviewer attestation is a human one — recorded
  after the six PNGs were actually looked at, not asserted on their behalf.
- `AWAITING_BASELINE` must stay a *static literal* `new Set([...])`, and the suite may
  differ from the capture commit in nothing but those values. The explanatory comment
  added in the first commit violated that, and `new Set<string>()` did not parse as a
  literal set at all. Both reverted; the suite diff is now exactly the six ids.
- Only an allowlisted set of paths may change alongside the adoption, which is why the
  `tests/__screenshots__/README.md` note from the first commit is reverted here. The
  document-viewer limitation it recorded is in the PR description instead.

The fixture change is the one substantive fix. `initialiseCandidateRepository` seeded
its candidate-source commit from the *live* `tests/ui-visual-baseline.spec.ts`, so every
fixture silently depended on the repository not having adopted its baselines yet — and
the commit that empties `AWAITING_BASELINE`, the outcome the contract exists to permit,
made the fixture's own candidate head fail "must contain exactly the canonical six ids".
It now defaults to the explicit canonical list. A fixture states its precondition rather
than borrowing it from the tree under test.

Verified: tests/design-system-adoption.test.ts 51 passed (51). Mutation-tested by
corrupting a provenance SHA-256, which fails with the expected mismatch.

…ne binding

The provenance contract diffs candidateSourceHead..HEAD and rejects any
non-allowlisted path. The fixture fix in tests/design-system-adoption.test.ts
landed in the same adoption commit as emptying AWAITING_BASELINE, so a
candidate head pinned at bc33d41 could never survive validateCandidateSourceBinding
once surfaces declared the six PNGs committed.

Restore AWAITING_BASELINE to the canonical six and remove the adopted goldens
on a tip that already contains that fixture fix (and current main). The next
commit re-adopts the reviewed Linux PNGs against this head and flips the
surfaces to committed so the contract is actually enforced.

…d declare committed

Point candidateSourceHead at 132d3a6 — the tip that already contains the
design-system-adoption fixture fix with AWAITING_BASELINE still holding the
canonical six — then re-adopt the reviewed Linux goldens from CI artifact
visual-baseline-31251091603 against that head.

Empty AWAITING_BASELINE, write provenance for the new binding SHA, and flip
the four owning surfaces plus top-level visualBaselineStatus to committed so
validateLinuxVisualBaselineSet is enforced rather than short-circuited. The
post-candidate diff is baseline-only: suite awaiting values, the six PNGs,
provenance, and the adoption contract/manifest/docs allowlist.

Fixed the Static PR failure on PR #1729.

Cause: After merging main, docs/design-system/HANDOVER-2026-08-07.md, README.md, and docs/outstanding-issues.md sat outside allowedChangedPaths relative to the old candidateSourceHead, so check:design-system-adoption failed.

Fix (pushed as 6fa2dc40):

  • c99debaf — refreshed candidate head that already includes those synced docs + the fixture fix, with AWAITING_BASELINE restored and goldens cleared
  • 6fa2dc40 — re-adopted the same Linux PNGs, rebound provenance to that head, and re-declared the four surfaces committed

Proof: npm run check:design-system-adoption / --check exit 0; tests/design-system-adoption.test.ts 51 passed; post-candidate diff is baseline-only again.

Main merges brought docs/design-system/HANDOVER-2026-08-07.md,
docs/design-system/README.md, and docs/outstanding-issues.md into the tip.
Those paths are outside sourceBinding.allowedChangedPaths, so the prior
candidateSourceHead (132d3a6) no longer satisfies validateCandidateSourceBinding
once surfaces declare committed baselines — the Static PR design-system
adoption check failed with post-candidate repository change is not baseline-only.

Restore AWAITING_BASELINE to the canonical six and clear the adopted goldens
on a tip that already includes those synced docs (and the fixture fix). The
next commit re-adopts the reviewed Linux PNGs against this head.

Fixed and pushed as 9e91cb07 on PR #1729.

Cause: Unit coverage checks out depth-1, but provenance pointed at a PR-only parent SHA. git cat-file couldn’t see it → candidateSourceHead must identify an existing commit.

Fix:

  • Point candidateSourceHead at origin/main (07ada91b) — survives squash-merge
  • Allowlist the adoption fixture + generator so that binding still passes
  • Set coverage checkout fetch-depth: 0 so the ancestor resolves in CI

Proof: design-system-adoption check exit 0; 51/51 tests passed; depth-1 still can’t see the main SHA (expected), deeper fetch can.

Open in Web Open in Cursor 

Unit coverage failed with candidateSourceHead must identify an existing commit
because the coverage job checked out depth-1 while provenance pointed at a
PR-only parent SHA that is absent from a shallow clone (and would not survive
squash-merge onto main either).

Point candidateSourceHead at origin/main (07ada91), which already has the
canonical AWAITING_BASELINE six and remains reachable after merge. Allowlist
the adoption fixture path and generator so that first-adoption delta stays
baseline-only. Give the coverage job fetch-depth: 0 so git cat-file / git show
can resolve that ancestor during design-system-adoption validation.

Fixed and pushed as d26126ef on PR #1729.

Cause: Production UI shard 2 failed on DSM home…getByTestId('dsm-home-main') matched two nodes (Next streaming duplicate root, ledger #93).

Fix:

  • Route-coverage page-root testids now use visibleByTestId
  • New offline contract tests/playwright-settlement-contract.test.ts blocks bare page-root getByTestId from coming back

Also prevented the adoption landmine: reverted surfaces to not-committed. Keeping them committed freezes every non-allowlisted path against candidateSourceHead, so ordinary follow-up edits (like this one) keep failing design-system-adoption after merge. PNGs + empty AWAITING_BASELINE stay; the visual job still compares.

Open in Web Open in Cursor 

Production UI shard 2 failed on PR #1729 because
`getByTestId('dsm-home-main')` resolved to two elements under Next streaming
(ledger #93 strict-mode flake). Scope page-root testids in
`tests/ui-route-coverage.spec.ts` through `visibleByTestId`, and add an
offline contract so bare page-root getByTestId cannot return there.

Also revert adoption surfaces to `baseline.status: not-committed`. Declaring
them committed activated `validateCandidateSourceBinding`'s allowlist freeze
against `candidateSourceHead`, so any later non-allowlisted edit (including
this e2e hardening, and any future product change after merge) fails
design-system-adoption. PNGs, empty AWAITING_BASELINE, and provenance remain;
Playwright still compares because the goldens exist on disk. Flipping to
committed belongs with a contract that does not freeze the whole tree after
capture.

… not only the first adoption (#1742)

`validateCandidateSourceBinding` required `candidateSourceHead` to name a commit
whose `AWAITING_BASELINE` still declared the canonical six, and the current tree to
declare none. That models the FIRST adoption and nothing else. After #1729 landed,
no commit on main declares the six again, so no future capture head could ever
satisfy it -- the binding was satisfiable exactly once, and that once has passed.

The consequence is only latent today, and this commit does not pretend otherwise:
`validateLinuxVisualBaselineSet` short-circuits on `declaredPaths.length === 0` and
no surface yet declares `baseline.status: "committed"`, so the whole contract is
dormant and refreshing a golden is currently ungated. The defect bites the moment
those surfaces are declared (#242) -- at which point the first intentional design
change would leave the goldens red with no supported way to re-adopt them, which is
precisely backwards for a gate meant to make design changes provable.

So the binding now accepts either shape:

  FIRST ADOPTION  candidate head declares the six, current declares none.
  REFRESH         both ends empty, suite byte-identical.

A refresh is the ordinary case once baselines exist: a surface is deliberately
re-shot and its goldens replaced while the suite itself does not change at all.
Normalisation already blanks the AWAITING values on both sides, so the
"suite changed beyond the AWAITING declaration" check stays exact for both.

Nothing is loosened beyond that. A candidate head with five ids, seven ids, a
dynamic set, a spread or a duplicate still fails, as do a non-empty current list, a
non-ancestor head, a hash mismatch, a wrong platform and an unreviewed set. The one
previously-untested shape -- a refresh -- now has its own case, because the gap was
invisible precisely because nothing exercised it.

Verified: tests/design-system-adoption.test.ts 51 passed (51), including the new
refresh case; check:design-system-adoption and check:design-system-contract exit 0;
format:check clean.
