* fix(desktop): show steer glyph in busy composer
Restore the steering-wheel glyph when a typed draft redirects a live turn.
Add a real Electron E2E regression test for stop, steer, attachment queueing,
and a paused queue after Stop.
* feat(desktop): add queue action beside steer
Restore an explicit queue action in the former steering slot while a typed
correction is ready. Keep the primary steering-wheel action for redirecting
the active turn.
* fix(desktop): retain dictation beside queued drafts
Keep the dictation microphone visible when a typed busy draft exposes the
separate queue action. Cover the combined controls in the real Electron flow.
* fix(desktop): place queue beside the busy action
Keep the Queue message control after the read-aloud toggle and directly before
the shared Stop/Steer action. Cover the rendered control order in Electron E2E.
* nix: add `cage` to devShell
* test(desktop): add pre-filled sessions support
Exports createSandbox, writeMockProviderConfig, writeEnvFile,
buildAppEnv, findElectron, and launchDesktop from fixtures.ts so
specs can compose their own seeded-backend fixtures without duplicating
the sandbox/config/launch logic.
* test(desktop): auto-fail e2e tests on error banner
Adds a shared test fixture (e2e/test.ts) that wraps @playwright/test's
page with an error-banner guard. When any [role="alert"] element
(error notification toast) appears in the DOM during a test, the test
fails with the error message text.
The guard uses:
- A MutationObserver (injected via addInitScript) that watches for
[role="alert"] elements appearing at any point during the test
- A final DOM scan in afterEach for alerts still visible at teardown
- Deduplication so the same error text only fires once
All existing e2e specs updated to import { test, expect } from './test'
instead of '@playwright/test'. No per-spec setup needed — the guard is
auto-installed on every page via the extended fixture.
This catches issues like the "resume failed" error banner that can
appear during session loading — previously the test would pass while
an error toast was silently visible on screen.
* fix(state): parse tool_calls JSON string before re-serializing
_insert_message_rows and append_message both do json.dumps(tool_calls)
to serialize the field for SQLite storage. But when tool_calls arrives
as a JSON string (from import_sessions / export_session, which store it
as TEXT), json.dumps double-encodes it — wrapping the already-serialized
string in quotes and escaping the inner quotes.
When _rows_to_conversation later does json.loads(row['tool_calls']),
the double-encoded string parses back to a plain string (not a list).
_history_to_messages then iterates this string character-by-character,
calling tc.get('function', {}) on each char — 'str' object has no
attribute 'get'.
This was a pre-existing bug (on main), but only triggered by the
import_sessions path (the live agent always passes tool_calls as a
Python list). The e2e error-banner guard caught it via the 'Resume
failed' notification toast.
Fix: in both append_message and _insert_message_rows, parse tool_calls
with json.loads first if it's a string, then re-serialize.
* fix(desktop): exempt boot-failure from error guard
- boot-failure: add allowErrorBanners() beforeEach — these tests
deliberately trigger boot errors, so error toasts are expected
- test.ts: export allowErrorBanners() opt-out + reset flag in afterEach
Adds a full desktop Playwright E2E suite that launches the Electron app
against a mock inference server, exercising the full boot chain:
electron -> hermes serve -> mock provider -> renderer
Includes:
- Mock OpenAI-compatible inference server (mock-server.ts)
- Shared fixtures with sandbox isolation (credentials, HERMES_HOME,
userData, fixed window-state.json for reproducible screenshots)
- Test specs: boot, boot-failure, onboarding, mock-backend-setup, chat,
and packaged-app launch
- Visual regression: expectVisualSnapshot() wraps toHaveScreenshot in
try/catch so diffs are reported without failing the test suite
- CI workflow: xvfb at 1280x1024, baseline cache from main
(--update-snapshots on main, compare on PRs), step summary table with
diff/actual/expected image links, dedicated visual-diffs artifact
- dev:mock script for local fake-provider development
- test:e2e:visual + test:e2e:update-snapshots scripts using cage
- .gitignore: *-snapshots/ (baselines cached in CI, not committed)
