Top row keeps Fast / Full + a new horizontal-dots button. Clicking
the dots reveals a textarea ("e.g. reply nicely but say no"); as
soon as text is in it the panel shows Draft fast / Draft full
buttons that pass the note through as noteHint to the AI reply
endpoint. Empty textarea hides the draft buttons so the user only
gets the steered draft when they've actually typed direction.
* fix: read allow_bash/allow_web_search from JSON body (#3229)
API callers using Content-Type: application/json had bash and web
tools silently disabled because allow_bash / allow_web_search were
only read from FormData (which is empty for JSON requests).
Changes:
- Fall back to JSON body for allow_bash and allow_web_search values
- Only add bash/web_search to disabled_tools when explicitly set to a
falsy value; when unset (None), defer to per-user privilege checks
- Admins with can_use_bash=True now get bash enabled by default
Fixes#3229
* fix: always send explicit allow_bash/allow_web_search from frontend
The backend 'is not None' guard (from prior commit) is correct for API
callers, but the frontend only sent allow_bash=true when the toggle was
ON — omission meant 'unspecified' which the backend treated as 'don't
disable'. Now the frontend always sends an explicit true/false value:
- allow_bash: sent on every request (checked ? 'true' : 'false')
- allow_web_search: explicit 'false' when toggle is off in agent mode
With explicit frontend values, the 'is not None' guard is safe:
- explicit true → tool enabled
- explicit false → tool disabled
- None (API caller omission) → defer to per-user privilege

* fix: expand cookbook error output tail from 12 to 50 lines
When a task reaches status 'error', the status endpoint was returning
only the last 12 lines of the subprocess log. The existing context-menu
'Copy last 50 lines' action was therefore copying the same 12 lines,
making it useless for diagnosing failures that produce long stack traces
or build output.
- Set _tail_lines = 50 when status == 'error', keep 12 for running tasks
- Initialise exit_code = None before the status-classification block so
it is always defined in the result dict (was only set inside the
is_alive branch, potential NameError in the dead-session path)
- Include exit_code in the task-status response dict
- JS poller captures exit_code from live data into local task state
The frontend output panel and 'Copy last 50 lines' now show the actual
error context without any UI changes.
* refactor: extract output-tail logic to testable helper + behavioral tests
Addresses review feedback on #1538: the previous tests were source-level
string guards. Extract the tail-slicing into a dependency-free helper
(routes/cookbook_output.error_aware_output_tail) and replace the guards
with behavioral tests that exercise the actual logic:
- error status with a 200-line snapshot -> exactly the last 50 lines
- running/ready/completed/stopped/unknown -> last 12 lines
- short snapshot -> all lines, no padding
- empty snapshot -> empty string
- error tail is a strict superset (suffix-compatible) of the non-error tail
The helper has no FastAPI/SQLAlchemy imports so it unit-tests without
standing up the app.

* feat(agent): workspace confinement via context-local binding + get_workspace tool
Bind the per-turn workspace once in execute_tool_block; the shared path
resolvers (_resolve_tool_path / _resolve_search_root) and the subprocess cwd
helper (agent_cwd) read it, so file tools + bash/python are confined centrally
and a new tool that uses the shared helpers cannot accidentally bypass it.
Adds the admin-gated /api/workspace/browse picker, a workspace pill + directory
modal (reusing existing modal/button CSS), the /workspace slash command, and a
get_workspace tool (replaces a system-prompt block). Confinement is OS-agnostic
(realpath/normcase/commonpath) and docker-safe (container paths, no host
assumptions). Reopens#2023.
* ux(workspace): clarify workspace is not a sandbox
Picker modal note + pill tooltip + get_workspace tool/output wording now state
plainly: read_file/write_file/edit_file/grep/glob/ls are confined to the folder,
but bash/python only start there (cwd) and are not sandboxed. Modal note reuses
the existing .muted class.
* fix(agent): treat an active workspace as file-work intent
A vague low-signal message (e.g. "look at the local project") matches no
domain keywords, so tool retrieval is skipped and only always-available tools
are offered — leaving the agent with no file access even though a workspace is
set. When a workspace is active, include the file/code tools (incl.
get_workspace) on low-signal turns so the agent can act on the folder.
Also requires the tool index (ChromaDB) to be reachable for normal retrieval;
that is an environment dependency, not part of this change.
* ux(workspace): hide pill + overflow entry in chat mode
Workspace only scopes the agent's file/shell tools, so the pill and the
overflow 'Workspace' entry are agent-only now — hidden in chat mode like the
bash toggle. Mode read from the DOM in syncWorkspaceIndicator; applyMode() is
called from the agent/chat setMode handler.
* prompt(tools): steer bash/python to defer to the dedicated file tools
bash/python schema descriptions (what native-tool-calling models read) were
bare and gave no steer, so models would do file ops via the shell (e.g. writing
SVG/HTML, which then dumps raw markup into the tool preview). Tell bash/python
in the schema + tool-index + prompt section to prefer read_file/write_file/
edit_file/grep/glob/ls and only be used for what those do not cover.
* prompt(tools): keep bash/python deferral generic (no hardcoded tool names)
Reference 'a dedicated tool' rather than listing read_file/write_file/grep/etc.
by name, so the guidance does not go stale if those tools are renamed.
* style(workspace): drop em-dashes from added code comments/strings
* ux(workspace): terser non-sandbox note in picker (no tool-name list)
* ux(workspace): mirror terse non-sandbox wording in pill tooltip
* chore: untrack local venv symlink (run-only, not part of the feature)
* prompt(workspace): keep get_workspace text generic (no hardcoded tool names)
* fix(agent): low-signal + workspace surfaces only read-only file tools
Intersect the files tool group with PLAN_MODE_READONLY_TOOLS so a vague message
in a workspace exposes read_file/grep/glob/ls/get_workspace for exploration, but
not write_file/edit_file/bash/python -- those wait for a request that actually
calls for them (RAG retrieval still adds them on a real ask).
* feat(workspace): cap browse listing at 500 dirs with a truncated hint
Mirror the filesystem_tools._CODENAV_MAX_HITS pattern with a module-local
_MAX_BROWSE_DIRS so a directory with thousands of children does not dump every
row into the picker; the response carries a truncated flag and the modal tells
the user to type a path to jump in.
* chore: untrack local venv symlink (run-only artifact)
* fix(workspace): vet the workspace root against the sensitive-path deny list at bind time
The in-workspace resolver deny-lists sensitive paths inside the workspace,
but the empty-path search root is the workspace itself, so a workspace of
~/.ssh could be listed via ls with no path. vet_workspace() (public, in
tool_execution next to the resolvers) rejects non-directories and sensitive
roots before the path is ever bound; chat_routes uses it instead of its
inline isdir check.
* fix(workspace): reject filesystem roots and stop showing rejected workspaces as active
Review findings from #3665:
P2: vet_workspace accepted / (and would accept drive/UNC roots), which makes
every absolute path 'inside' the workspace and collapses confinement into
host-wide file access. A root is its own dirname, so reject when
dirname(resolved) == resolved; the browse response now carries a selectable
flag and the picker disables 'Use this folder' on unselectable dirs.
P3: /workspace set stored any string client-side and the chat route silently
dropped rejected values, so the pill could claim a confinement that was not
in effect. New admin-gated /api/workspace/vet validates manual paths before
they persist (canonical path returned), and when a posted workspace is
rejected at send time the stream emits workspace_rejected so the client
clears the stored value and toasts instead of continuing silently.
* fix(workspace): check caller privilege before vetting the posted workspace
Review finding: /api/chat_stream called vet_workspace() on the posted value
for every caller and emitted workspace_rejected on failure, so a non-admin
who can chat but cannot use file/shell tools could distinguish existing
directories from missing/file/sensitive/root paths by whether the event
appeared. The resolution now lives in _resolve_request_workspace, which
drops the submitted value uniformly for non-admin callers, with no vetting
and no event, before the path ever touches the filesystem. Admin and
single-user behavior is unchanged. Test pins that valid and invalid paths
are indistinguishable for a non-admin and that vet_workspace is never
invoked for them.
- Window-level recipient-chip click handler now bails if the chip
is inside .email-reader-meta — the per-reader handler still
toggles the expanded-address view on click.
- The from-sender (magnifying glass) search button SVG is now
tinted with var(--accent-primary) so it stands out as a deliberate
search action against the neutral Reply / Forward / etc icons.
Moved the action cluster out of the From row to a sibling of meta
inside .email-reader-meta. Undocked: cluster is absolute-positioned
top-right of the header so it overlays the From line as before.
Docked: cluster is in-flow at the bottom of the meta column, so it
sits below the From row when collapsed and below the To/Cc rows
when the user expands the recipient details via the chevron.
The previous commit read toggleState.mode before it was declared
(send-time site near line 632) and outside its closure (assistant
finalize site near line 3426). Both threw ReferenceError / TDZ on
first send, which crashed the chat send + render pipeline.
Read fresh via Storage.loadToggleState() at each site, defaulting to
'chat' on any error. Mode-tag rendering otherwise unchanged.
Sometimes the user lands in chat mode without realizing — surface the
mode the message went out on as a small uppercase pill right after the
timestamp in the role header.
- roleTimestamp(when, mode) gains an optional mode arg. Agent renders
in accent; Chat renders in muted/neutral. Other values render
nothing (back-compat for older history without the field).
- The three roleTimestamp call sites pass metadata?.mode through.
- chat.js writes mode into the user-message metadata at send time and
into the assistant metadata when the active-stream render lands,
reading toggleState.mode so research/agent overrides upstream still
flow through correctly.
Historical messages from before this change just don't show the pill —
graceful fallback, no migration needed.
opacity 0.55 → 0.45 and explicit color:var(--fg), matching the
.cal-search-icon treatment so the email chip-bar magnifier reads at
the same muted intensity as the calendar search field.
Search input gets position:relative;top:-1px so the placeholder text
sits 1px higher inside the chip bar.
AI reply choice popover: drop the '...' kebab and the 'Draft with
note' textarea row entirely. Replace the concentric-circle Full icon
with our standard accent dot (filled 6px circle in viewBox 24).
Main button: open cached AI draft if one exists, otherwise generate
a fast draft inline. No more intermediate Fast/Full/Note menu.
Caret on the side opens a focused popover with just a textarea +
Generate button — the user types instructions (e.g. 'thank them and
confirm Tuesday at 2', 'decline politely') and submitting fires the
full-mode generation with those instructions as the noteHint.
- _aiReplySplitButtonHtml(data) centralizes the new HTML so all three
reader render sites use the same markup.
- _showAiReplyChoice rewritten — drops the Fast/Full toggle row plus
the kebab + 'Draft with note' two-step. Ctrl/Cmd+Enter submits.
- _handleAiReplyButton routes based on which inner button was clicked
(caret → popover, main → run-or-open).
- The three reader event registrations now listen on .ai-reply-split
so both inner buttons feed the same handler.
Found the culprit — the docked-modal CSS forced .email-reader-meta-row
into a single-column grid, which collapsed the From row into a
vertical stack and pushed the action buttons below it.
Fix:
- Merged the primary + secondary action rows into one flat
.email-reader-actions-inline cluster inside the From row
- Made the cluster flex-wrap so it stays inline when undocked and
wraps below the chip when truly cramped (docked, narrow tab)
- Excluded .email-reader-meta-from from the docked-modal and
narrow-docpane grid-stack rules — those overrides now only
apply to the To/Cc detail rows
Absolutely-positioned 13px search SVG at the left edge of the chip bar
(same circle+line glyph used elsewhere). Bar padding-left bumped 8→26
to leave room. pointer-events:none on the icon so clicks still land
on the input, opacity 0.55 to match other muted prefix icons.
Star → bookmark banner SVG also in the card title row (em.is_flagged
glyph) and the inbox toolbar's _starIcon / _starFilledIcon, so every
favorites affordance matches the chats sidebar bookmark.
Search dropdown gains a third suggestion kind:
- kind: 'email' rows surface emails from the snapshot whose subject or
sender name match the typed term (top 4, scored by startsWith vs
substring). Render row carries a small envelope glyph + bolded
subject + 'from name' on the right.
- Picking one closes the dropdown and expands that exact card via
_toggleCardPreview, scrolling it into view.
Restructured the DOM so the Reply / Reply-all / Forward row lives
INSIDE the email-reader-meta-from div (after the chips span), and
the Summary / AI / More row sits directly below as a sibling of
From inside the meta. Killed the outer email-reader-actions
wrapper that kept letting the buttons drift out of position.
CSS now pushes the primary row right via margin-left:auto on the
From row and right-aligns the secondary row below it.
After picking a filter from the dropdown the pill was 'icon + Unread'.
Drop the text — the icon is the affordance — so the pill collapses to
just the glyph + ×. Hover surfaces the friendly label via the title
attribute. Contact + text pills still carry their text label.
Typing a filter keyword now surfaces the matching filter row in the
autocomplete (each with its existing dropdown icon). Picking one pins
a filter pill and drives the global filter state.
Keyword catalog (_LIB_FILTER_OPTIONS):
- has-attachments ← 'attachment', 'attachments', 'has attachment', 'attach'
- unread ← 'unread', 'new', 'unseen'
- favorites ← 'favorite', 'starred', 'star', 'flagged'
- undone ← 'undone', 'pending', 'todo'
- reminders ← 'reminder', 'reminders'
- unanswered ← 'unanswered', 'unreplied', 'no reply'
- pending_30d ← 'pending 30d', 'pending', 'recent pending'
- stale_30d ← 'stale', 'old', 'stale 30d'
- tag:urgent ← 'urgent', 'critical'
- tag:reply-soon ← 'reply soon', 'reply', 'follow up'
- tag:spam ← 'spam', 'junk'
- tag:newsletter ← 'newsletter', 'newsletters', 'subscriptions'
- tag:marketing ← 'marketing', 'promo', 'promotional'
Filter pill behaviour:
- Only one filter pill is active at a time — adding a new one replaces
any existing filter pill.
- _applyFilterPillSideEffect drives the existing #email-lib-filter
select (or the #email-attach-btn toggle for has-attachments). The
server-side list refetch follows for free via the existing 'change'
handler.
- Removing the filter pill clears the side effect.
Pill render gains the filter icon as a leading glyph; the suggestion
row renders icon + label in the accent colour so it visually reads as
a filter, not a contact.
With the meta collapsed to a single visible From row + chevron,
there is room to put the action cluster on that same row as a
right-aligned sibling. Dropped the absolute positioning and
gradient-fade overlap — actions now flex-end via margin-left:auto
so From sits on the left and Reply / Reply-all / Forward / AI /
Summary / More all sit on the right of the same row.
Also moved the chevron inside the recipient-chips span so it sits
adjacent to the sender chip instead of wrapping onto a second line.
1. Multiple pills now AND together — 'alice + bob' means both alice
AND bob are somewhere on the email, not 'from alice OR from bob'.
(some → every in the filter.)
2. Default autocomplete focus is now -1 (no row pre-selected) so plain
Enter commits the input as a text pill — typing then Enter behaves
like a normal search. ArrowDown / ArrowUp + Enter still picks a
contact suggestion. Tab still autocompletes the most-relevant match
regardless of arrow state.
3. Pill × button nudged up 4px so it sits on the visual centerline
inside the 18px pill height.
Only the From row shows by default. When the email has To and/or
Cc recipients, a small chevron sits next to the From chip — click
it to inline-expand the To/Cc rows below (rotates 180deg open).
Trims the header to a single visible row in the common case,
leaving the action cluster plenty of vertical headroom to stay
on a single row.
Four fixes from the first round of usage:
1. Pill height was larger than the chip-bar's row — shrink to a fixed
18px-tall pill (line-height + height pinned) so it sits inside
the input row.
2. List refresh wiped pill state — when _loadEmails replaces
state._libEmails (refresh, folder switch, etc.), refresh the
snapshot to the new list and re-apply the pill filter so pills
persist instead of resetting to 'show all emails'.
3. Click-to-add only worked inside the open email reader. Extend the
capture-phase handler to ALSO catch clicks on .email-meta-sender
inside the library grid — the list card's sender name is the most
natural place to want to pivot from.
4. Esc inside the chip-input didn't close the modal. New behaviour:
if the autocomplete dropdown is open, Esc closes only the dropdown
(and swallows the event); otherwise Esc blurs the input and bubbles
so the existing modal Esc handler can close the library.
Also wires data-email + data-name on .email-meta-sender so the click
handler has reliable targeting.
Replace the single text-input + IMAP search round-trip with a deterministic
local chip-bar filter modelled on the gallery's tag pills.
What lives in the bar
- Each filter is a pill: { type: 'contact', name, email } or
{ type: 'text', text }.
- Click anywhere in the bar lands the cursor in the input field.
- Typing populates a dropdown of matching contacts + recently-seen senders
(cached per modal open via _buildSuggestionSource).
- Tab / Enter on a highlighted suggestion → adds a contact pill.
- Enter on free text with no suggestion match → adds a text pill.
- Backspace on empty input → pops the last pill.
- × on a pill removes that one.
- Arrow keys navigate the suggestion list.
Filtering
- _applyPillFilter snapshots the loaded list once, then for every render
shows emails where ANY pill matches:
contact pill — from_address equals OR to/cc contains the pill's email
text pill — broad substring match across subject/from/snippet
Click-to-add
- Capture-phase click handler on .recipient-chip inside the email reader
drops the person into the library as a contact pill (and reopens the
library window if it was closed/minimized).
Removed the debounced /api/email/search IMAP call and its 'Loading emails'
side effect. The dropped server search was the source of the 'type
jonathan, get stuck on Loading' bug.
The Fast/Full popover now has a kebab (three-dot) button alongside the
two preset choices. Clicking it expands a textarea below with a
'Draft with note' send button. The textarea is for the user to tell
the AI how to reply ('confirm Tuesday at 2', 'decline politely', 'say
we'll need an extra week') instead of accepting a generic draft.
Plumbing:
- emailLibrary.js: kebab button + note panel inside .email-ai-reply-choice
menu. Submitting calls _runAiReplyFromButton with mode='ai-reply-full'
and a noteHint string.
- _runAiReplyFromButton signature gains noteHint; passes it through
state._onEmailClick as opts.noteHint.
- emailInbox.js consumer: forwards opts.noteHint into _openEmail's new
5th arg, which puts it in the /api/email/ai-reply POST body as
user_hint.
- routes/email_routes.py /ai-reply: reads user_hint, appends a
'User's instructions for THIS reply' section to the user message
(priority over default tone/length). Also skips the per-message
AI-reply cache when a hint is set — the cached generic draft would
silently override the instructions otherwise.
Restructure the action cluster so it stays as two visible rows inside
.email-reader-actions instead of flattening via display:contents:
- Top row: Summary, More
- Bottom row: Reply, Reply all (conditional), Forward, AI reply
Dropped the Search button — wasn't part of the requested layout.
CSS: .email-reader-actions becomes flex column with both rows
right-aligned; .email-reader-actions-row becomes a real flex row
(no more display:contents flattening) so each row stays on its own
line. Whole block continues to sit beside the From/To meta inside
.email-reader-header.
After dropping the 'Default' chip, _loadAccounts started setting
state._libAccountId asynchronously while _loadEmails fired in parallel
with the still-null id. The list request was going out with no
account_id (so the server defaulted) while subsequent per-email reads
used the explicit id set after _loadAccounts resolved — back to the
same desync the chip-removal was meant to fix.
Sequence them: await _loadAccounts first, then kick off the folders /
reminders / emails fetches. The list always carries the right
account_id from the very first call.
Replying from an email opened in a new tab was dragging that window to
the left-sidebar dock — same treatment as the main email library, even
though the user had explicitly opted to pop it into its own floating
viewer. Annoying when the viewer is mid-screen and Reply yanks it.
Add an early bail in _snapEmailModalToLeftSidebar for modals whose id
starts with 'email-view-' (the 'open in new tab' reader). Compose still
opens; the floating viewer just stays where it is, on top of the
library. User can move/close it themselves.
Bug: clicking the dot to change the server-side default account while
viewing 'Default' left a desynced state — the email list still showed
the OLD default's cached UIDs, but the server's default now pointed
at a different account. Opening any email used the visible UID +
account_id='' on the read endpoint, which resolved against the NEW
default account → wrong email content (or older mail entirely).
Fix: remove the 'Default' chip. _loadAccounts now auto-selects the
is_default account (or the first one) into state._libAccountId so the
list view + every per-email request always carries an explicit
account_id and can't desync from set-default.
The dot button still lives on each account chip for changing which
account the server treats as the default — but it no longer affects
which account the list is currently displaying.
The All/Unread/Favorites/etc selector was a native <select>, which
can't render SVG inside <option>. Replace it with a custom picker
that:
- Keeps the existing <select id="email-lib-filter"> as the value
store (hidden via display:none). All existing 'change' listeners
keep working — the picker just dispatches a change event after
updating the select's value.
- Renders a styled button + drop-out menu built from the select's
options (preserves optgroup labels like 'Tags').
- Each option carries an SVG icon: lines for All, ringed dot for
Unread, star for Favorites, empty checkbox for Undone, bell for
Reminders, reply arrow for Unanswered/Reply-soon, clock for
Pending, calendar-x for Stale, exclamation-triangle for Urgent,
ban for Spam, newsletter and megaphone for the marketing tags.
- Icons use var(--accent) so they pick up the user's theme color.
- Click outside / Esc closes the menu (Esc handler is capture-phase
+ stopPropagation so it doesn't bubble to the modal-close listener
and shut the whole email window).
CSS scoped under .email-filter-picker.
More menu reorganization:
- Group 1: Open in new tab, Remind to reply
- Group 2 (state): Mark as Unread/Read, Mark as Done/Not Done, Move to
Archive, Save sender to contacts
- Group 3 (destructive, unchanged): Move to Spam, Move to Trash,
Delete Permanently
- Renames: Done→'Mark as Done', Archive→'Move to Archive', Mark
Read/Unread→'Mark as Read'/'Mark as Unread'.
- Mark Unread moves out of group 1 down into the state-change group
alongside Done; Save sender to contacts moves down into the same
state group.
Toolbar row reshuffle (applies to both the email-list card reader and
the email document view):
- Row 1 (primary): Reply, Reply all, Forward, Search, More — Forward
no longer has to fight Search/More for space in the secondary row.
- Row 2 (secondary): AI reply, Summary — gets its own dedicated row.
The 6px dot was easy to miss on touch / small-cursor setups. Replace
padding-only sizing with explicit width:18px;height:18px on the
button, dot centered inside via justify-content. Anchor moved from
right:9 → right:6 so the visible dot stays where it was; the extra
clickable area extends inward from the chip edge.
GET /api/contacts/config masks the saved password as '***' (or ''
when none). Mirror that into the password input's placeholder so users
can see at a glance that a password is on file — matching the email
account form's '(unchanged)' pattern.
The contacts manager in Settings was stuck at name+email inline only —
no address field, no phone input on add, no search to find anything in
a list of 100+ contacts.
UI:
- Add form gets phone and address inputs alongside name/email. The
email-required gate becomes name-OR-email so address/phone-only
entries are creatable.
- Edit form gets an address input, threaded into the PUT body.
- Search input above the list filters client-side by name / emails /
phones / address (debounced 80ms). Count badge shows N/M when a
filter is active.
Backend:
- /api/contacts/{uid} PUT now accepts address and routes it through
_update_contact (which already supports it after the previous
commit). Validation loosened: name OR email OR address.
- /api/contacts/add POST now accepts phone + address. Phone goes
through an immediate _update_contact since _create_contact's
signature only takes name+email+address.
8px ring read as a sliver next to the chip label. Bump to a 10x10 SVG
with stroke-width:3 for the hollow ring so it presents like the
sidebar notif dot at this size. Chip padding-right bumped 20→24 so
the larger glyph isn't crushed against the text.
Replace the star polygon with a small 8px circle dot — filled +
accent-tinted on the default account, hollow + muted on others.
Vertical position bumped up 2px via top: calc(50% - 2px) so it
visually centers against the chip's text baseline instead of
geometric center.
- The 'All (default)' chip showed only the default account, so the
label was misleading. Rename to just 'Default' to match behavior.
- Each user account chip gets a star button (filled if it IS the
default, hollow otherwise). Clicking calls the existing
POST /api/email/accounts/{id}/set-default and refreshes the strip.
Cross-account aggregation (a true 'All') is a separate bigger lift
that needs UID namespacing and merge/sort in _list_emails_sync;
flagged for follow-up rather than smuggled into this change.
Closes the auto-send hole that let earlier models invent signatures
(e.g. signing 'David' for a user named Felix) and SMTP them to real
recipients before the user could review.
New setting: agent_email_confirm (default True).
When on, the MCP send_email and reply_to_email tools no longer SMTP
directly — they write the composed email to scheduled_emails with a new
status 'agent_draft' (far-future send_at so the scheduled-send poller
ignores them) and return a {pending: true, pending_id, to, subject,
body, message: ...} payload. The model surfaces that to the user.
Backend endpoints to approve / cancel:
- GET /api/email/pending → list staged drafts for the owner
- POST /api/email/pending/{id}/approve → flip status to 'pending' +
backdate send_at so the
existing scheduled-send
poller delivers immediately
- DELETE /api/email/pending/{id} → status = 'cancelled'
UI:
- Settings / AI Defaults gets a new 'Email Safety' card with the
toggle, default on.
- Tool descriptions for send_email and reply_to_email now include the
pending behavior + an explicit 'DO NOT invent a signature, do not
type a person's name' guardrail.
Pass 2 (next): inline chat card with Send / Discard buttons so the user
doesn't have to type a confirmation reply. Today's prompt + the listing
endpoint give the model a clean path to surface drafts.
- 'Marking done' / 'Marking read' / 'Marking unread' label was 2px low
vs. the whirlpool spinner inside the Actions button. The existing
loading-label CSS only scoped to #email-lib-bulk-delete; extend it
to also cover #email-lib-bulk-actions and bump top from 0 to -2px.
- 'All' checkbox label was inline-styled top:2px so the box + text sat
lower than the surrounding bulk-action items. Reset to top:0 to
match memory + skills select-all rows.
Two pain points:
- IMAP server search is genuinely slow.
- The grid blanked to a whirlpool on every keystroke, so even fast
searches felt dead because you couldn't see your own results.
Fix:
- _localSearchFilter runs synchronously on every keystroke, filtering
the pre-search snapshot by subject / from-name / from-address /
snippet so the grid responds immediately. Snapshot is taken on the
first non-empty keystroke and restored when the input is cleared.
- _doSearch no longer renders the loading-whirlpool spinner into the
grid. The local filter already shows useful results; surface
'Searching…' in the stats badge to indicate the server search is in
flight.
- When server results land, they replace the grid; if the user has
already typed past them, the seq guard skips the stale render.
