Event Logs workbench UI (design handoff) #823
Description
Spec: docs/superpowers/specs/2026-10-08-event-logs-workbench-ui-handoff-design.md (see the section references below).
Design: Claude Design canvas "Event Log Viewer Redesign" (board exports to be attached).
Parent: #539 (Phase 3 analysis UX, Phase 4 unified timeline, Phase 7 diagnosis presentation)
Spec: docs/superpowers/specs/2026-10-08-event-logs-workbench-ui-handoff-design.md
Implements the Event Logs workbench mockups (Claude Design canvas, "Event Logs — full UI" page)
as close to the mockups as the epic invariants and design system allow. Every intentional
difference is listed in spec §4 (and D20 for v2); anything else is a defect.

Decisions (spec §13.1, recorded 2026-10-08)
Q-1 light-blue selection · Q-2 brush transient · Q-3 interim heat-map mix · Q-4 weakest-edge chains ·
Q-5/6/8/11 custom views, extra exports, delta KPIs and add-log-source in v1 · Q-7 status bar to DS now ·
Q-9/Q-10 backend follow-ups · Q-12 events 75 and 76 · Q-13 deep-link first
Invariants (from #539)
- No causality from timestamp proximity alone: time-only relations are never chains, connectors, or counts.
- Findings come only from the diagnosis engine.
- Exports are redacted, except the Windows EVTX subset, which ships behind an explicit unredacted confirmation.
- No real tenant data in fixtures.

Lane tracker (driven under the execution charter)
Goal: every open lane reaches merge-ready. Merge-ready means all of:
approved_at_head; GitHub's reviewDecision can show a stale approval).cmtrace-code-reviewreview_reportwith zero findings, validated byvalidate_agent_output.py --role code-review(main's contract). Prose fix-verification reviews iterate until nothing is open; the final JSON review runs only after CI and CodeRabbit pass.Adam alone merges. Edited in place. Last update: 2026-10-17 22:54Z.
Repo-wide CI break (2026-10-16): fix is PR #950, merge it first

It clears rustls (0.23.46), the app's zip (9.0.4, with entry types classified exactly as zip 8.6 did after the final review caught a DOS-host symlink regression), and ignores RUSTSEC-2026-0367 to 0369 only for tauri-plugin-updater's zip 4.6.1, enforced by a[bans]wrapper entry (removal tracked in #948). After it merges, every open PR merges main.Owner decisions waiting on Adam
singleSeriescolor (section 6.3); this also answers Event Logs spec: EVT chip fill vanishes on selected surfaces; Same ID sparkline has no color #895 item 2. (d) Phase 5: when the operator changes the time window, levels or Event IDs during a load and then presses Stop, the controls snap back to the criteria the loaded events were read with (no read starts after Stop, and the view never shows events under a window they were not read with). (e) Phase 4b: the grid coverage banner goes away when another visible surface discloses the gaps (the Insights tab, or the channel pane once Event Logs UI phase 8: Channel pane restyle #837 merges); it returns only when the operator has hidden both; files mode reads "{file name} not read. Findings may be incomplete."source:filters grid records only, not text logs correlated into the analysis session, because A.7b scopes evaluation to the visible records. Recommendation: record both in 8.3.logItemsis a session-wide placed count, so it cannot give a per-file line count, and an entry is not a line for multi-line records (a 5-line CCM record is one entry). Recommendation: amend the spec to "entry count" (spec 4 entry).Recommendation: amend 8.5 and 8.9 to match.
secondary_keys, so no Candidate edge can be captured for the fixture that Event Logs UI phase 10: Correlation view #839's third comment asks for. Phase 10 proves Candidate with synthetic edges in unit tests. Decide whether that is acceptable, or whether the engine should emit secondary keys.Decided 2026-10-09: scenario colors to v2 (#855); "text closer to own mark" dropped; light/classic Error text

approved_at_headand draft state is the owner's workflow choice, not a gate (skill text aligned in a follow-up PR).Decided 2026-10-10 (Adam: 'your call'): when CodeRabbit holds an approval on an older commit and reviews a new head cleanly, it posts no new review; Main dismisses the stale approval so CodeRabbit records one at the head (CodeRabbit gate decision, #872 and #879).

Second batch (about 00:00Z on 10-11): #880, #903, #907, #908, #913, #914, #915, #916, #920, #876, #899 (main at

Done means every v1 phase in #823's checklist through #854 is merge-ready under the charter (merging is Adam's). Critical path: #876 and #880 merged on 2026-10-11, so Phase 3 (#829) is unblocked. Phase 3 and Phase 14 were built locally on main + #880 + #876; they take main next (identical content, so their diffs shrink to the phase alone) and their PRs open after their first charter reviews.
715be2ad: CodeRabbit APPROVED at head. The final re-review atd7c2cfc1closed all six earlier items and found one low (a sub-pixel touch drag could persist the cap; fixed by rounding before the guard) and a PR-body nit (fixed). Blocked by the repo-wide advisory break below: CI's supply-chain step now fails on every PR. After the deps fix merges, #929 takes main, then CI and the final re-review90664b1cafter four review rounds (the callout matches the engine's partial redaction; every stale count marked; a throttle that a tail cannot starve). Waiting for #929; the PR's final review verifies round 4736dc498: clean after eight verification rounds (anchor at issue stamps, two-sided start band, tail rows never counted with a note, zero-fill symmetric, invalidation on every change that alters what was compared). CodeRabbit next; CI's Rust check waits on #950. Adam: the #849 decisions are listed in the PR bodycecdd2e1(2803 tests). Waiting for #929 like Phase 7. Its PR opens as soon as #929 merges and it takes main, so its diff and CI cover Phase 14 only; the final review verifies round 47a640e67after five rounds: remote tail loss filed under the machine, unattributed gaps disclosed instead of k of k, backend-mirrored file and pattern rules, stale-stop origins fail closed). 5: clean (zero-finding verification at12291d13after seven rounds: the controls always show the criteria the loaded data was read with, or exactly one replay runs; Stop never starts a read; chained replays keep the bound on channels the operator stopped). 7 (8f722f06) and 15 (57fc97b4) done; 18b (c4367509) CI green on a dispatched runc1e396c0): every current load gap is on at least one rendered surface and the grid banner never repeats one a surface names; claims join by the input ordinals the engine echoes (inputIndices, a small additive parser-crate field), so redacted paths still match. Waits for Phase 4, #947 and #837; small test pins and nits fold in when it takes main5bf59887after five rounds): every live trend span comes from a per-load read record written at commit; an empty read proves its span only for a time-only query; unread selected channels and budget gaps leave bins unknown rather than zero. Waits for #929 and Phase 7; capture and merge coordination noted for the take-main stepc6c4129b. First charter review: every classification site confirmed, Windows CI green on a dispatched run; its one low (no test of the Win32 capture sites) fixed with a Windows-gated test. CodeRabbit and PR CI next, then the final review. Acceptance item 1 (an unelevated live load shows Security asaccessDenied) needs Adam's Windows lab; CI runners are elevated1c24c354): behavior-preserving move of the clear workflow out of ChannelPicker.tsx (1,694 to 1,478 lines) into a hook and controls; captures byte-identical; stacked on Phase 8, lands before Phase 19be51f75bafter four rounds): an invalid query is NOT applied, with a 400 ms settled 'Not applied' message; field values ignore Case and scope (spec 8.3; source: and data. by the same rule, recorded); each field term marks only its own column. Ten PR-body records held in final/p5b-833. Two spec 8.3 errata candidates for Adam: an older build reads a fieldQuery hide rule as One string and hides nothing; source: filters grid records only, not analysis-session text logs. Waits for Phase 5 and #92992e93d27after three fix rounds), on the local merge of Phase 4 + Phase 5b (b4f34b3c); record scope held by record identity (ids renumber on every merge), counts by reference, focus follows any chip removal; follow-ups #954, #955. 6b (#835): clean locally (fv5 zero source findings atd74d369bafter six fix rounds; one shared year rule and an escalation ladder so no time label reads with equal ends; overlay opacity solved from tokens). Lab items for Adam: the Windows 100k rebucket figure and a high-contrast and largest-font check. Follow-ups #958, #959. 10 (#839): all three gates clean (GATE 1 at6d42e4bd, GATE 2 at6d3fac2a, GATE 3 atefacfb65); a test-comment closure (X16af351e2, X2 in progress, comment-only) is being confirmed before the lane is recorded clean. Correlation view, lanes, Insights card; diagnosis-summary correlation rows removed (#838 ruling 1); the fixture now carries engine-captured Exact, Ambiguous and Coverage blocked chains; every e2e replay-guard trip fails its test; follow-ups #956, #957, #960. 13 (#845): source-clean atc14219cbafter one fix round (Critical is a circle per D21; hit-test against the drawn geometry; a click on a stale scene acts on nothing); only decision 15 and the capture session remain; follow-ups #961, #962 and 16 (#848) clean at588aa5dd(fv2 zero findings after three rounds), on the 6a head (new views store with schema 1 and no migration, strict import, built-in "Enrollment triage" as a field-grammar query over three exact channels; lab: confirm DNS-Client 1014 is in System and the level of event 75). 10b (#840) GATE 1 building (merges 6b in first, to reuse its opacity solver and label rules; follow-ups #965, #966) and 11 (#842) GATE A1 building (window query with continuation loop, uncapped member index, dock default off) on the Phase 10 GATE 2 head (worktrees evtx-correlation-overview-840, evtx-correlation-dock-842). Waiting on their chains: 6b, 10, 13 and 16 need 6a; 17b needs Adam's #849 decisions; 18a and 10c need Adam's #838 decisions; 19 (#853): clean locally (fv3 zero findings at8021373dafter four fix rounds), worktree evtx-add-log-source-853 stacked on #935. Literal spec 8.19 replace model; Event Logs keeps its view only for its add flow's two triggers; a denied text-log load reopens as a text log after the elevated restart (every workspace now tickets a restorable workspace); folder adds disclose what they did not read.

@adamgell#872remains conditionally merge-ready until you decide whether to accept the approval fromresolve. The tracker reports that the final delta did not receive a fresh review because of the rate limit. An APPROVED review node at head does not, by itself, establish that the final delta was reviewed.Thanks for the guidance on the execution charter and theme decisions. I have not independently verified current CI results or review nodes.
