| Idea | Status | Tags | Summary | Katz |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| host_webview_ownership | done | The extension host owns durable data, index / analysis queries, and VS Code APIs. The webview owns presentation state and posts intents ( search, navigate, persist UI prefs, export ). Host session objects ( e. g. activity-bar context session ) mutate on the host and push snapshots to the webview; the webview must not invent a second source of truth for the same domain fields. Typed message modules define the contract; keep request ids / error scopes on async host calls. | 0.050 | |
| scope | TypeScript package standards for `packages/extension` ( npm `reqlan-extension` ), especially UI state. Complements [development_core.rust_mindset] and [extension_architecture.state_machine_mindset]. Webview inventory: [webview_doc.webview]. Package role: [core_architecture.extension_package]. | 0.040 | ||
| search_add_to_chat | done | From each [search_pane] hit, a split **Add to chat** control: - Primary button: place compact `#requirement` context into the **current** chat input without submitting. - ▾ menu ( visible secondary affordance ): **Add to current chat** or **Add to new chat** ( new session, then seed the same payload ). Tooltips name both behaviours; secondary is not right-click-only. Same payload shape as ["../../agent/features-ai.rq".add_to_chat] ( idea name, path: line, summary ) via [open_chat]. Host: [open_chat] with `{ query, isPartialQuery: true, target: 'current' | 'new' }`. Cursor note: do not use `workbench.action.chat.open` for **current** ( it always opens a new tab ); see ["../../agent/features-ai.rq".add_to_chat] / [open_chat]. Clipboard fallback when no chat command is available ( same spirit as ["../../agent/features-ai.rq".add_to_chat] ). Wire: [AddToChatButton] / [SearchPane] → [app_state] `addToChat(hit, target)` → [activity_bar_messages] → [activity_bar_webview] → [open_chat]. | 0.071 | |
| search_pane | done | Workspace idea search in the activity bar — find rq ideas by name, summary, or tags without leaving the sidebar. Complements the modal from [commands.search_code_actions]; this pane stays open for repeated lookups and inserts. Implemented by [SearchPane] under [CollapsiblePane]; host wire in [activity_bar_webview] / [activity_bar_messages] / [app_state]. [search_pane_query] [search_pane_layout] [search_pane_results] [search_pane_open_live_file] [search_pane_load_more] [search_pane_file_hits] [search_pane_insert_reference] [search_add_to_chat] [search_pane_advanced] [search_pane_empty_query] [search_pane_scoped_status] [search_progress] [search_pane_seed] [search_pane_match_highlighting] | 0.176 | |
| search_pane_load_more | done | When ranked hits exceed the visible page, [search_pane] shows an exceeded-count label ( `40+ matches`, or `{n}+ matches` after further pages ) instead of a full total, and a **Show more** control at the bottom of the list that fetches the next page and appends. A new query resets to the first page. Uses [core_search.fuzzy_search_pages] ( `offset` + `truncated` ). | 0.095 | |
| search_progress | done | Activity-bar search ranks in the native [core_search.fuzzy_search] module ( rusqlite read + score in-process ). The host must not hydrate a JS idea catalog or worker before scoring — return only the capped hit list. A static " Searching … " / " Loading … " label must not be the only signal: the pane should show **live progress** so a slow wait reads as working, not hung. - Host posts progress for the in-flight search request while native scoring runs ( `Scoring ideas…` ). - [SearchPane] displays the phase label with a continuous activity affordance ( spinner / indeterminate bar ) and elapsed time while loading, for both the empty initial wait and the " Updating … " refresh path. - Stale progress from superseded queries must not overwrite a newer request; clear progress when results or a scoped error arrive. | 0.080 | |
| todo_pane | done | Workspace todo list in the activity bar — ideas that carry the `@todo` special attribute ( [ai_support.special_attributes] ), not ideas whose `@status` happens to be `todo`. Complements the planned Overview todos rollup in [ideas_summary_doc.overview_page]; this pane stays open for quick triage beside the editor. Layout matches [search_panel.search_pane_layout]: flat list in the pane body, not a nested boxed subsection. - List ideas in the active base where the `todo` attribute is present ( bare `@todo` / flag, or `@todo` with a note ). - Each row: idea name, source path, and the todo note when present ( omit empty / bare-true values ). - Click opens the idea in the editor ( same navigation as [search_panel.search_pane_results] ). - Results fill the pane body ( 100 % width ) and scroll inside the pane; do not nest a second capped NestedSection scroll. - List capped ( default ~ 40 ) with a “ showing N of M ” meta line when truncated; do not dump unbounded index results into the pane. - Soft-wait when the index is not ready; scoped errors stay in the pane. - Pane header **Refresh** reloads the list; also reload on index health / sync completion for the active base. - Optional affordance to create a stub via [commands.pallete_function_create_todo] when that command ships — do not block the list on it. Host query + wire: [activity_bar_webview] / [activity_bar_data] / [activity_bar_messages] / [app_state]; store query [sqlite_store]. Implemented by [TodoPane] under [CollapsiblePane]; same scroll / fill pattern as [SearchPane]. | 0.046 | |
| component_list | Priority release ( shipped ): - Shell: [ActivityBarApp], HeaderBar ( includes [info_site_link] ), CollapsiblePane in ["../../../packages/extension/webviews/activity-bar/"] - Panes: WorkspacePane, [SearchPane], [TodoPane], ScopePane, SelectionPane, ReferenceListsPane, MiniatureGraphPane, ParentNodesPane, ContextTray - Graph: [MiniGraphCanvas] consuming shared graph lib per [graph_lib] - Host: [activity_bar_webview], [activity_bar_data], wire types in [activity_bar_messages] - HTML: [get_activity_bar_html] - Build: ["../../../packages/extension/webviews/activity-bar/vite.config.ts"] → media / webviews / activity-bar / Deferred ( not in priority release ): - IdeasetPane, FileReferencesPane, RecentPane - [graph_path_doc.graph_path_walk] UI pane - ExportSliceButton - Full workspace export via ["../export/export.rq".export_JSON] and ["../export/export.rq".export_csv] | 0.040 | ||
| import_keywords | The keywords import, from, and as are reserved for import statements. Import keywords may also appear as ordinary words in idea body text when not at statement start. | 0.047 | ||
| wildcard_references_webview | done | A click on the command document link for a [wildcard_references] target runs `reqlan.openWildcardReference` and opens a dedicated **wildcard matches** webview ( beside the editor ) that lists: - Stats: matching idea count, distinct file count, and @ status breakdown - Requirements: each matching idea with name, status, path, and summary ( click opens the idea ) - Files: each matching file with idea count ( click opens the file ) Secondary action **Open in Search** seeds the activity-bar ["../extension/local-context/activitybar-panels/search.rq".search_pane_seed] via `focusIdeaSearch` with: - `query`: idea pattern with glob meta softened for fuzzy search ( `import_*` → `import` ) - `pathFilter`: the path glob as a hard AND filter ( [idea_path_filter] ) Payload builder: `buildWildcardMatchesPayload` filters the index catalog by idea glob + path filter. Protocol for the matches panel is inline host ↔ webview ( `init` / `openIdea` / `openFile` / `openSearch` ). The document-link target is the command URI. Go-to-definition does not open the panel. Highlighting of the source reference must stay link-styled — see ["../extension/language/syntax/features-syntax.rq".syntax_highlighting] and ["../extension/language/syntax/features-syntax-highlighting.rq".wildcard_reference_highlighting]. | 0.199 |
