- 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.
Old rule fixed the loading wrap at min-height:180px so the spinner
landed near the top of the email-list section. Switch to
position:absolute inset:0 over the grid (with #email-lib-grid set to
position:relative) so the whirlpool + 'Loading emails' label center
within the entire visible email area regardless of section height.
- '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.
Before: only delete showed a spinner/disabled buttons. Picking Done on
92 selected emails fired off 184 sequential HTTP calls (mark-answered
+ mark-read) with zero UI feedback, so it looked like the click did
nothing for the ~20-30 seconds it took to grind through.
- All five bulk actions (delete / archive / done / read / unread) now
swap the target button into a whirlpool+verb-ing state, dim siblings,
and show 'N/M…' progress in the count label that ticks as each
request resolves.
- Per-uid work runs in parallel with a hard cap of 6 in flight, so a
90-email Done finishes in ~3 server round-trips of latency instead
of 90, but we still don't open 90 simultaneous IMAP-backed connections.
Group 1 — per-email view actions:
Open in new tab → Mark Unread/Read → Remind to reply
Group 2 — non-destructive state changes:
Save sender to contacts → Done/Not Done → Archive
Group 3 — destructive (own divider):
Move to Spam → Move to Trash → Delete Permanently
Adds support for { separator: true } items in the actions array,
rendered as .dropdown-divider rows.
Repro: filter Undone → Select All → uncheck a few → Actions → Done →
nothing visible happens. Reason: the bulk-Done branch only flipped
em.is_answered on the in-memory entries; the cards stayed in
state._libEmails so they kept rendering, but now with the done check
ticked. From the user's POV — still 'undone' filter, cards still
there — it looked like the action was a no-op.
When the filter is 'undone' specifically, treat marking done as a
view-removal (same animate-then-prune step archive/delete uses).
When clicking an email higher up in the list, its top edge can be hiding
behind the modal header or off-screen. After applying the
.email-card-expanded class + the new minHeight, scrollIntoView(block:start)
on the next animation frame so the user sees the whole card.
The expanded email card painted a kebab menu in its title row because
the per-card .memory-item-actions menu at the bottom was hidden while
expanded. Both pointed at _showCardMenu(em). Remove the duplicate:
- Drop the email-card-header-menu button (and its rightCluster
wrapper) — title row now just holds the nav arrows.
- Remove the CSS rule that hid .memory-item-actions on
.email-card-expanded so the bottom kebab stays visible.
- Unread-dot insert point retargets to .email-card-nav-arrows now
that the rightCluster is gone.
state._selectedUids holds whatever the server returns for em.uid (string
or number); the bulk action looped Array.from(...) and did strict ===
against state._libEmails entries. When the types disagreed, the find()
returned undefined, the in-memory is_answered flip never happened, and
the post-loop _renderGrid() painted the cards back into their original
not-done state — looking like 'mark done' did nothing even though the
server-side call had succeeded.
- Compare via String() on both sides so the in-memory state actually
flips.
- Surface HTTP failure from mark-answered/mark-read so the existing
failedReadSync toast can fire if the calls don't go through.
Wrap the height:28px / top:0 rule in @media (min-width:769px) so it
can't leak into mobile, where a different touch-friendly variant
already sets min-height:36px + top:-2px.
Base .memory-toolbar-btn is 24px tall at top:-4px. Bump the compose
button alone to 28px (4px taller) and top:-2px (moves down 2px) so
it reads as the primary action in the toolbar without affecting
Select/Refresh.
Previously _prepareEmailWindowForDocument would:
1. Check if there was horizontal room for both email + doc.
2. If not, try collapsing the sidebar to recover space.
3. If even that wasn't enough, _clearEmailDocumentSplit() — the
email tab-down the user has been disliking.
Drop step 3. We still try collapsing the sidebar (free easy room),
but if the layout is still cramped, just dock anyway and let the
user manage their layout. _clearEmailDocumentSplit() is still
called on the legitimate close paths.
Wire the existing built-in PERSONAS catalog through to scheduled tasks
the same way I wired it to reminder synthesis. Repurposes the
dormant scheduled_tasks.character_id column.
UI (static/js/tasks.js)
- New 'Persona' select in the LLM / Research task form, with the five
built-in characters (socrates/razor/nietzsche/spark/odysseus) plus a
default 'no persona' option. Pre-populates from existing.character_id
on edit. Non-llm/research types explicitly clear it on save.
API (routes/task_routes.py)
- TaskCreate + TaskUpdate gain character_id: Optional[str].
- _task_to_dict echoes character_id back so the form can hydrate on
edit. Update endpoint stores '' as None to allow clearing.
Runner (src/task_scheduler.py)
- When task.character_id is set and matches a built-in persona, prepend
the persona prompt to the task system prompt so the model speaks in
that voice while still knowing it's running a scheduled task.
- crew_member.personality still wins as the base; character_id stacks
on top.
I removed the .email-menu-wrap markup from email rows earlier but
left the JS that queries it and calls .addEventListener on the
result. Since the query returns null, every _createEmailItem call
threw and the row never made it into the list — most visibly:
clicking a sender name to filter by them didn't appear to work,
because the row wiring (including the sender click handler) was
ripped out mid-construction.
- Drop the unconditional menuWrap.addEventListener('click', ...)
block — there's no menu to open.
- Drop the early-return guard on touchstart that referenced the
removed wrap.
- The two remaining .email-menu-wrap queries are already guarded
with 'if (menuWrap)' so they safely no-op.
The bell is already gated on settings.reminder_channel === 'email', but
the check only ran at email-library init — so switching the reminder
channel in Settings didn't update the bell until you reopened Email.
- Settings/Reminders channel-change handler now dispatches
odysseus-reminder-channel-changed { channel } after saving.
- emailLibrary listens for it and re-runs _syncEmailReminderBellVisibility
with the new channel value.
The strip already lives where account chips render, so the text label
beside the whirlpool was redundant. Strip the label + the fallback
'Accounts...' text — the spinner alone tells the user accounts are
loading.
Dropped the .email-menu-wrap / .email-menu-btn from each row. Other
handlers that check 'if (e.target.closest(.email-menu-wrap)) return;'
safely no-op when the element doesn't exist. Row click + swipe still
open the email and its in-reader actions.
Transparent at rest, accent gradient animates in on hover with a 0.18s
ease transition. Drag affordance + col-resize cursor still work; the
stripe just stops bothering you when not touched.
Right-side handle mirrors the gradient direction (left-to-right
gradient flipped to right-to-left).
Gmail composer chips arrive with inline border:1px solid #ddd + an
assumed white background, so on dark themes they read as a barely-
visible white box with the filename invisible. Override .gmail_chip /
.gmail_drive_chip inside .email-reader-body:
- Strip inline width:386px / height:20px (use auto + max-width:100%),
- Re-flow as inline-flex with a 6px gap so icon + filename align.
- Background tinted with var(--fg) 4%, border = var(--border).
- Anchor uses var(--accent) and the filename span uses var(--fg) so
text is always legible regardless of theme.
- Icon img clamped to 16x16.
Before: the attachment chip just dimmed (opacity 0.6) while the file
downloaded — easy to miss on a large attachment.
Now: replace the paperclip SVG with a 12px whirlpool spinner for the
duration of the fetch, restoring the original icon when the download
finishes (or errors out). Same loading vocabulary as Test / Scan /
Probe / Send buttons elsewhere in the UI.
When the email-answered event fires (user just sent a reply, so the
source email auto-marks as done), the row was getting the .active
class instantly with no visible cue beyond the checkbox tick. Add a
brief .email-auto-done-flash class on the row that runs two keyframe
animations:
- email-auto-done-row: tints the row background with the accent for
~1.2s then fades to transparent.
- email-auto-done-check: pops the done checkbox to 1.4× with an
accent ring that expands outward over 0.6s.
Class self-removes after 1.2s so it doesn't replay on re-renders.
The drag handle painted a 35% accent gradient strip on the page edge
of any docked panel. The col-resize cursor on hover is enough to
surface the affordance; the stripe felt like a stray UI element.
The single-row chip strip relied on native horizontal scroll, which is
hard to reach without a horizontal wheel. Wire two scroll mechanisms
on the strip once it's rendered:
- Vertical wheel → horizontal scroll (intercept only when overflow
exists and the wheel motion is primarily vertical, so normal page
scroll still works elsewhere).
- Mouse grab-and-drag: cursor goes grab/grabbing, mousedown→move
bumps scrollLeft by the cursor delta. A 5px drag threshold cancels
the chip click so the user can drag-scroll without accidentally
switching accounts.
- Revert the email row layout — sender/date stay above subject again,
matching the original two-line item that the user actually wanted.
- The account filter chips (#email-lib-accounts) wrapped onto multiple
rows on desktop. Promote the mobile-only horizontal-scroll rule to
apply at every breakpoint so the chips always sit on one row with
overflow scroll, regardless of screen size.
Group row's auto-sort-sessions-btn padding-left 6→4, and
.sort-dropdown-item left padding 8→6 so 'Last Active', 'Newest First',
'By Folder', '↑↓ Rearrange', '● Select' all shift in by the same
amount, matching the Group nudge.
Subject was on its own line below sender/date. Move it inline so each
email occupies one row: sender capped at 35% width (ellipsis), subject
takes the remaining space (ellipsis), date pins to the right. Tighter
list density at the cost of dropping the spare line for snippet text
(none was being rendered anyway).
Two related fixes for the Chats section header:
- The 'manage' label only slid out when the button itself was hovered.
Add section-header-flex:hover to the reveal rule so hovering the sort
icon (or anywhere in the section header) also opens the label.
- Parent-hover opacity bumped 0.45 → 0.85 so the 'manage' text reads
much more clearly when revealed. Direct hover on the button still
pushes to full opacity 1.
The shared .section-header-btn:hover rule paints a tinted background
across all section header buttons. On the Chats manage button this
showed as a box behind the sliding 'manage' label, which the user
didn't want. Override background to transparent for that one button.
The session-dropdown Esc handler only closed .session-dropdown-menu,
leaving the .session-folder-submenu (Move to folder → folder list)
orphaned on screen. Same gap on the click-away path. Extend both
selectors to cover the submenu so a single Esc / outside-click
dismisses the whole stack.
Email's 'new' label is absolutely positioned to the LEFT of the '+'
icon, which works there because the '+' is the visible/clickable
anchor. The chats manage button has no visible glyph at rest, so the
label was rendered outside the button's bounding box — hovering
'manage' lost the :hover state and clicking it missed.
Override list-item-plus-label inside chats-manage-btn:
position: static (in flex flow) + max-width:0 / max-width:80px
expand-on-hover so the button's clickable rect grows alongside the
text. Hover stays sticky; click hits.
The list-item-plus-label slide-in needs a visible anchor element so
the button takes up consistent width and the absolutely-positioned
label can fly in to the left of it. Email uses the '+' SVG as that
anchor; here we use an empty 13x13 spacer span instead — same
footprint, no glyph. Result: empty button at rest (still visible per
the chats-manage-btn fade rules), 'manage' slides in from the left
on direct hover.
Removed the book/library SVG and list-item-plus-btn/-label classes.
The button is now a plain text button styled like email's 'new' label
(9.5px, 0.02em letter-spacing), reusing the existing chats-manage-btn
opacity hover-reveal rules so it still fades until you hover the
section.
Two months of iteration on the Settings panel, integration forms, and
small visual nudges across the app. Highlights:
Settings restructure
- Add Models: split into separate Local + API cards (no more in-card
tabs); each fuses Type/Provider with the URL input.
- Added Models: new dedicated sidebar tab, with Probe + Clear-offline
pulled into its header; Local/API sub-section icons accent-tinted.
- Search: Web Search and a new Deep Research card (Model + tuning),
with a cross-link to AI Defaults. Provider hints use real clickable
anchors; Web Search Test button shows a whirlpool spinner.
- AI Defaults: Image Generation card returns; Research Model card
carries only Endpoint+Model with a cross-link to Search; Vision /
Default / Utility fallbacks unified under one numbered-row design
matching Search's chain.
- API Permissions (was 'API Tokens'): per-row rename, inline
Permissions toggle that expands the scope-edit panel, in-field
copy icons (icon→check on success). Empty state accent-tinted.
- Integrations: + Add Integration drops a type-picker menu directly
under the button (drop-up on tight viewports); each integration
form (API, CalDAV, CardDAV, Email, Codex/Claude, Vault, MCP) uses
the same accent-outlined Save/Test/Cancel buttons right-aligned.
- Danger Zone: Wipe→Delete with trash icons; new 'Delete everything'
row at the bottom that loops every category.
AI Synthesis (Reminders)
- Persona dropdown sourced from PROMPT_TEMPLATES + custom preset.
- src/reminder_personas.py mirrors the five built-ins for the
server-side synthesis path.
- dispatch_reminder() reads reminder_llm_persona and uses the
persona's system prompt; empty/unknown falls back to warm-neutral.
Esc handling
- Kebab menus and the provider picker intercept Esc in capture phase
so dismissing a popup no longer closes the whole Settings modal.
Accent tinting
- Scoped CSS rule across data-settings-panel=ai/services/added-models/
search/integrations/reminders for card h2 icons + the Added Models
sub-section icons.
Codex/Claude integration form
- No more auto-creation on form open — explicit Create token button.
- New tokens start with every scope granted; existing tokens move out
of the integration form into the API Permissions card.
- Setup reveal: copy buttons inline inside the token + setup code
blocks; shorter subtitle wording.
Misc visual polish
- Save/Test/Cancel uniformly accent-outlined and right-aligned on
every integration form.
- Provider logos render inline next to the search fallback selects
and the Deep Research Search dropdown.
- Trash icons in fallback rows bumped to 20x20 so they fill the 32px
button.
- Image generation default flipped to off.
Lift the LLM/Image Type select to the left of the URL input and the Add
button to its right, so the primary action (URL + Add) sits on one row.
Scan / Ollama / Key / Test stay on the action row below.
Drop the in-card Local/API tab strip — each is now its own admin card with
a normal h2 heading (Local on top, API below). The API key input is
always visible (no more click-to-reveal toggle), matching how cloud
providers actually work. Local keeps the optional key reveal since
local servers usually don't need one.
Dead code removed: wireModelsTabs IIFE and the adm-epApiKeyBtn toggle wire.
Move the Added Models endpoint lists out of the Add Models card into a
dedicated sidebar tab between Add Models and AI Defaults. The card now
focuses purely on adding (Local / API tabs), while the new panel owns
the existing endpoints + Probe and Clear-offline controls.
admin.js: defensive fallback so a stale 'added' value in localStorage
falls back to 'local' instead of leaving both panes hidden.
Move the Added Local + Added API lists out of the per-type tabs into
a dedicated third tab. Each Add tab is now just the form; the new tab
collects both lists together with Local / API subheadings.
Card layout:
Add Models [Probe] [Clear offline]
[Local] [API] [Added Models]
Tab content:
Local → Add Local form
API → Add API form
Added Models → Local list + API list (subheadings)
All endpoint list/form IDs preserved. Tab switcher JS is generic so
the new 'added' tab works without code changes.
Earlier split into 4 flat cards wasn't what was asked for. Restore to
a single 'Add Models' card with two tabs at the top:
Local → Add form + Added Local Models list
API → Add form + Added API Endpoints list
Probe / Clear-offline live on the card header and act on both lists.
Active tab is remembered in localStorage so the user lands back where
they were. All form/list IDs preserved (adm-epLocalUrl, adm-epList-local,
adm-epList-api, etc.) so admin.js continues to work unchanged.
Replaces the .adm-section-toggle fold-open JS with a tab-switcher; the
fold elements no longer exist so the old handler was already a no-op.
