+# Contextual Managed Recovery UI Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** Execute this plan task by task with a fresh
+> implementer and a specification-plus-quality review after every task. Track
+> progress with the checkbox steps below.
+
+## User Request
+
+### Requested result
+Implement the revised durable-runtime UI so automatic recovery stays invisible; use existing yellow error popups only when a user decision or intervention is needed; keep System Status focused on system load; remove the persistent managed-runtime dashboard, routine notices, and per-agent resource controls; preserve existing agent panes and session history/actions.
+
+### Explicit constraints
+- Use the existing pane/agent error surfaces and yellow error popups for failures or decisions.
+- Do not add a System Status error surface; System Status remains load/resource monitoring.
+- Do not expose lifecycle/recovery details during normal operation.
+- Do not silently create a replacement conversation; retain history and explicitly label any start-new action.
+- Work in a dedicated worktree and complete the-usual workflow with tests and independent review.
+
+### Accepted tradeoffs and residuals
+- Runtime recovery internals and diagnostics may remain available to the implementation and existing panes; only unnecessary always-visible user-facing surfaces should be removed.
+- Existing unrelated OpenCode baseline test failure is outside this UI change.
+
+**Goal:** Make managed-runtime recovery quiet during healthy operation and actionable only in the affected agent pane when the user must intervene.
+
+**Architecture:** Keep WebSocket negotiation, `managedRuntimeSlice`, supervisor inventory reconciliation, projection fields, session identity, and history behavior unchanged. Remove the fixed managed-agent dashboard and its resource editor. Add one presentational pane-local amber card driven by the already-projected `recoverySummary`; it offers same-soul retry for `blocked` and an explicitly labeled start-new action for certified `lost` state. Keep a narrow global notice path only for cleanup failures that have no pane-local decision, while silently retiring successful cleanup and ordinary-ended notices.
+
+**Tech Stack:** React 18, TypeScript, Redux Toolkit selectors, existing `FreshAgentApprovalBanner`/terminal amber-card patterns, Vitest/Testing Library, and the existing Playwright managed-runtime coverage.
+
+## Global Constraints
+
+- Work only in `/home/dan/code/freshell/.worktrees/managed-recovery-contextual-ui` on `the-usual/managed-recovery-contextual-ui`; never edit the primary checkout.
+- The immutable base is `12e5e9f55fa049fd33b81f8f7ff64f451605b907`.
+- Preserve the pre-existing `.tmp-native-smoke/` changes in the primary checkout.
+- Use pnpm `10.34.5`, frozen installs, repository-owned test commands, and the configured Cloud Run backend for broad gates.
+- Do not weaken, skip, or delete tests merely to obtain a green result. The baseline has one ledger-recorded unrelated failure in `test/unit/tooling/testing/opencode-native-history.test.ts`.
+- Keep System Status (`HostStatsPane`) load-only. Do not route runtime recovery or incident data into it.
+- Preserve session identity, history, existing pane actions, and the explicit kill-before-new-conversation semantics. Never auto-create a replacement conversation.
+- Update `docs/index.html` for this significant user-facing UI change.
+
+---
+
+### Task 1: Remove always-visible managed-runtime surfaces and retain only actionable error delivery
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `src/App.tsx` to remove the managed dashboard and notice mounts/imports while retaining managed-runtime readiness and refresh wiring.
+- Delete: `src/components/ManagedAgentRecoveryStatus.tsx`.
+- Delete: `src/components/AgentResourceLimits.tsx`.
+- Modify: `src/components/ManagedRuntimeNotices.tsx` to show only cleanup failures in the existing amber error-popup style, silently acknowledge routine success/ended notices, and never show a ready count, startup scan, IDs, or resource controls.
+- Modify: `test/unit/client/components/ManagedRuntimeNotices.test.tsx` to protect actionable-error-only behavior.
+- Delete: `test/unit/client/components/ManagedAgentRecoveryStatus.test.tsx` after its dashboard/resource assertions are replaced by Task 2 card tests.
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `getManagedRuntimeNotices`, `recordManagedRuntimeNoticeReceipt`, `ManagedRuntimeNotice`, and the existing `managedRuntime.available`/connection selectors.
+- Produces: no new public API; App continues to expose only internal managed-runtime recovery state and pane projections.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing behavioral test**
+
+Add tests to `ManagedRuntimeNotices.test.tsx` that render a `cleanup_succeeded` and an `ended_without_process` notice and assert no popup is rendered, while a `cleanup_failed` notice renders one amber `role="alert"` with its message and an explicit Dismiss action. Assert routine notices are acknowledged through the existing receipt API so they do not block later actionable notices. Assert the component never renders `Managed agent recovery`, `ready`, `Resource limits and usage`, or a runtime identifier.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run the test and verify the intended failure**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+pnpm run test:vitest run test/unit/client/components/ManagedRuntimeNotices.test.tsx --config config/vitest/vitest.config.ts
+```
+
+Expected: FAIL because the current component renders successful and ended notices and uses the old generic popup behavior.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add the minimal production implementation**
+
+Remove the dashboard and resource-editor imports/mounts from `App.tsx`. In `ManagedRuntimeNotices`, partition fetched notices by `kind === 'cleanup_failed'`; acknowledge non-actionable notices using the existing receipt endpoint, keep polling only while the managed capability and WebSocket are ready, and render the first actionable notice with the existing amber border/background classes, `role="alert"`, its user-facing message, Details when an incident exists, and Dismiss. Remove the 10-second auto-acknowledgement for the actionable error so the user can decide when to dismiss it. Delete the now-orphaned dashboard and resource-editor files.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run the focused test**
+
+Run the command from Step 2.
+
+Expected: PASS, including the routine-notice suppression and cleanup-failure popup behavior.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Refactor while green**
+
+Keep notice filtering and acknowledgement in small named helpers, keep the existing API/receipt contracts unchanged, and remove dead imports/constants without changing managed-runtime refresh or host-stats code.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Run impacted-test verification**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+pnpm run test:vitest run \
+  test/unit/client/components/ManagedRuntimeNotices.test.tsx \
+  test/unit/client/components/App.machine-identity.test.tsx \
+  test/unit/client/components/App.inventory-title-fold.test.tsx \
+  test/unit/client/components/panes/HostStatsPane.test.tsx \
+  test/unit/client/components/App.hoststats-ws.test.tsx \
+  --config config/vitest/vitest.config.ts
+```
+
+Expected: PASS. The App tests must still cover managed-runtime bootstrap indirectly, and HostStats tests must remain unchanged and load-only.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Commit the task**
+
+```bash
+git add src/App.tsx src/components/ManagedRuntimeNotices.tsx test/unit/client/components/ManagedRuntimeNotices.test.tsx
+git rm src/components/ManagedAgentRecoveryStatus.tsx src/components/AgentResourceLimits.tsx test/unit/client/components/ManagedAgentRecoveryStatus.test.tsx
+git commit -m "refactor(ui): remove managed runtime dashboard"
+```
+
+Do not modify `HostStatsPane` or the managed-runtime backend/API contracts in this task.
+
+### Task 2: Surface blocked and lost recovery inside the affected pane
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `src/components/ManagedRuntimeRecoveryCard.tsx`.
+- Create: `test/unit/client/components/ManagedRuntimeRecoveryCard.test.tsx`.
+- Modify: `src/components/TerminalView.tsx` to render the card only for projected `blocked`/`lost` states, retry the same soul with its revision fence, refresh inventory, and reuse the existing explicit start-fresh action for lost sessions.
+- Modify: `src/components/fresh-agent/FreshAgentView.tsx` to render the same card, retry with the projected revision, refresh inventory, and reuse the existing kill-before-new-conversation action for lost sessions.
+- Modify: `test/unit/client/components/TerminalView.launchRetry.test.tsx` or the nearest existing TerminalView focused fixture to cover managed blocked/lost presentation and no automatic replacement.
+- Modify: `test/unit/client/components/fresh-agent/FreshAgentView.test.tsx` with a focused managed blocked/lost case if its existing fixture can provide the projection without broad lifecycle setup.
+- Modify: `test/e2e-browser/specs/runtime-lost-soul-notice-rust.spec.ts` and `test/e2e-browser/specs/runtime-tabs-rehydrate-rust.spec.ts` only where they locate the removed dashboard/normal notice; retain their backend identity, detach/stop, incident, cleanup, and history assertions through existing pane or rig actions.
+- Modify: `docs/index.html` to remove the routine “Restarting agent”/cleanup-notice mock and show the contextual amber intervention card in the affected pane.
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `ManagedRuntimeRecoverySummary`, `TerminalPaneContent`/`FreshAgentPaneContent` projection fields, `retryManagedRuntimeSoul`, `queueManagedRuntimeRefresh`, and the existing parent callbacks `startFreshConversation` and `startNewConversation`.
+- Produces: `ManagedRuntimeRecoveryCard({ recoverySummary, onRetry, onStartFresh })`, returning `null` for `live`, `recovering`, `stopped`, or missing summaries and rendering one amber `role="alert"` only for `blocked` or `lost`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing behavioral test**
+
+Create `ManagedRuntimeRecoveryCard.test.tsx` with a minimal provider-free render of the card. Cover: `live` and `recovering` render nothing; `blocked` renders one yellow alert and “Retry recovery”, calls the supplied async retry callback once, and reports a failed retry in the same card; `lost` renders a yellow alert explaining that the existing conversation could not be recovered and an explicitly labeled “Start new conversation” button that calls only after a user click. Assert that no test path creates a session during render.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run the test and verify the intended failure**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+pnpm run test:vitest run test/unit/client/components/ManagedRuntimeRecoveryCard.test.tsx --config config/vitest/vitest.config.ts
+```
+
+Expected: FAIL because the component does not yet exist.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add the minimal production implementation**
+
+Implement the card with this decision table:
+
+```tsx
+if (!summary || !['blocked', 'lost'].includes(summary.recoveryState)) return null
+const blocked = summary.recoveryState === 'blocked'
+return (
+  <div role="alert" data-testid="managed-runtime-recovery-card" className="...amber...">
+    <span>{blocked
+      ? 'This session needs attention before it can continue.'
+      : 'This session could not be recovered. Its existing conversation is still available in history.'}</span>
+    {blocked ? <button onClick={retry}>Retry recovery</button>
+      : <button onClick={onStartFresh}>Start new conversation</button>}
+    {error ? <p role="alert">{error}</p> : null}
+  </div>
+)
+```
+
+In `TerminalView`, call `retryManagedRuntimeSoul(terminalContent.soulId, terminalContent.soulIntentRevision)` and then `queueManagedRuntimeRefresh(appStore, 'pane-recovery-retry')`; do not render the card when a more specific launch, owner-divergence, handoff, or existing terminal-exit card already owns the decision. For `lost`, reuse the existing `startFreshConversation`, which explicitly clears the old durable identity only after the user clicks. In `FreshAgentView`, use the same fenced retry call and inventory refresh, suppress the duplicate generic ended-session card while the managed lost card is visible, and reuse `startNewConversation` for the explicit new-conversation click. Do not change the existing provider recovery or session-history reducers unless a focused test proves they silently replace a managed lost session.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run the focused tests**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+pnpm run test:vitest run \
+  test/unit/client/components/ManagedRuntimeRecoveryCard.test.tsx \
+  test/unit/client/components/TerminalView.launchRetry.test.tsx \
+  test/unit/client/components/fresh-agent/FreshAgentView.test.tsx \
+  --config config/vitest/vitest.config.ts
+```
+
+Expected: PASS. The managed card is silent during automatic recovery, exposes only the affected pane’s decision, preserves the existing session reference until an explicit new-conversation action, and keeps existing terminal/fresh-agent tests green.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Refactor while green**
+
+Keep the card presentational and small, share its copy and amber classes across both parents, and keep retry ownership in each parent so each API call carries the current pane’s revision fence. Ensure repeated runtime snapshots clear the card automatically when recovery becomes `live`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Run impacted-test verification**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+pnpm run test:vitest run \
+  test/unit/client/components/ManagedRuntimeRecoveryCard.test.tsx \
+  test/unit/client/components/TerminalView.launchRetry.test.tsx \
+  test/unit/client/components/fresh-agent/FreshAgentView.test.tsx \
+  test/unit/client/components/panes/HostStatsPane.test.tsx \
+  --config config/vitest/vitest.config.ts
+```
+
+If the managed-runtime browser specs have a stable configured backend, run the affected selectors through the repository’s configured e2e wrapper and preserve the existing unrelated baseline failure in the run ledger.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Commit the task**
+
+```bash
+git add src/components/ManagedRuntimeRecoveryCard.tsx src/components/TerminalView.tsx src/components/fresh-agent/FreshAgentView.tsx test/unit/client/components/ManagedRuntimeRecoveryCard.test.tsx test/unit/client/components/TerminalView.launchRetry.test.tsx test/unit/client/components/fresh-agent/FreshAgentView.test.tsx test/e2e-browser/specs/runtime-lost-soul-notice-rust.spec.ts test/e2e-browser/specs/runtime-tabs-rehydrate-rust.spec.ts docs/index.html
+git commit -m "feat(ui): show managed recovery in agent panes"
+```
+
+The task is complete only when existing agent panes, session history, explicit new-conversation semantics, and load-only System Status remain intact.

 ```
 
 The task is complete only when existing agent panes, session history, explicit new-conversation semantics, and load-only System Status remain intact.
+
+### Task 3: Preserve managed view intent on ordinary close and align product examples
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `src/components/panes/PaneContainer.tsx` (or the shared close thunk if that is the smallest existing seam) to mark a managed view `detached` with its current view/soul revision before removing the pane, preserving close failure behavior when the server does not acknowledge the visibility change.
+- Modify: `test/unit/client/components/panes/PaneContainer.test.tsx` or the focused close-thunk test to cover managed detach-before-close and the refusal/error path.
+- Modify: `test/e2e-browser/specs/runtime-tabs-rehydrate-rust.spec.ts` to replace dashboard Close view interaction with ordinary pane close and assert the running soul remains detached after an inventory refresh; retain Stop agent coverage through the existing terminal shift-close path or rig action as appropriate.
+- Modify: `test/e2e-browser/specs/runtime-lost-soul-notice-rust.spec.ts` to stop expecting a routine success notice and instead assert the actionable cleanup-failure or pane-local error path actually rendered; retain incident persistence, exact cleanup, identity, and receipt assertions consistent with what the UI displays.
+- Modify: `docs/index.html` to remove the routine “Restarting agent”/cleanup-notice mock and show the contextual amber intervention card in the affected pane.
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: managed pane projection fields (`viewIntentId`, `viewIntentRevision`, `soulIntentRevision`), `updateManagedRuntimeViewVisibility`, existing pane close acknowledgements, and existing browser helpers.
+- Produces: ordinary pane/tab close detaches a managed view before layout removal, while unmanaged pane close behavior remains unchanged.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing behavioral test**
+
+Add a focused close test with a managed terminal pane carrying a view ID and both revision values. Assert the visibility PATCH is sent with `detached` and the current revisions before the close thunk removes the pane; assert an API refusal leaves the pane visible and exposes its existing close error surface. Add a browser assertion that the affected managed view is not recreated after a later inventory refresh.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run the test and verify the intended failure**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+pnpm run test:vitest run test/unit/client/components/panes/PaneContainer.test.tsx --config config/vitest/vitest.config.ts
+```
+
+Expected: FAIL because ordinary close currently journals pane removal without updating the managed view intent’s visibility.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add the minimal production implementation**
+
+Before the existing `closePaneWithCleanup` dispatch for managed terminal and Fresh Agent panes, send `updateManagedRuntimeViewVisibility(viewIntentId, 'detached', viewIntentRevision, soulIntentRevision)`. Await the acknowledgement; on failure, leave the pane in place and use the existing pane-close error path. Keep terminal detach and Fresh Agent kill/close sequencing intact, and skip the managed PATCH for panes without a view intent.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run the focused test**
+
+Run the command from Step 2.
+
+Expected: PASS, including unchanged unmanaged close behavior.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Refactor while green**
+
+Keep the managed-detach operation in one helper used by pane and tab close paths, preserve revision fencing, and avoid reintroducing a global stop/detach control surface.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Run impacted-test verification**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+pnpm run test:vitest run \
+  test/unit/client/components/panes/PaneContainer.test.tsx \
+  test/unit/client/components/panes/PaneContainer.createContent.test.tsx \
+  test/unit/client/components/ManagedRuntimeNotices.test.tsx \
+  test/unit/lib/managed-runtime-recovery.test.ts \
+  --config config/vitest/vitest.config.ts
+```
+
+If the configured e2e backend and runtime fixtures are available, run the two affected specs with the repository’s e2e wrapper. Do not weaken or skip their backend identity and cleanup assertions because the dashboard was removed.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Commit the task**
+
+```bash
+git add src/components/panes/PaneContainer.tsx test/unit/client/components/panes/PaneContainer.test.tsx test/e2e-browser/specs/runtime-tabs-rehydrate-rust.spec.ts test/e2e-browser/specs/runtime-lost-soul-notice-rust.spec.ts docs/index.html

Add a lifecycle guard at every TerminalView path that responds to an invalid terminal, reconnect, reconcile, or failed attach by minting a create key or sending an identity-less create: while the current managed projection is `blocked` or `lost`, those paths must stop after preserving the pane and wait for the card's Retry or Start new conversation action. Test the effect-driven rejected-terminal path, not only render-time absence of a create. For `lost`, use an explicit start-new transition that mints a new `createRequestId`, clears the old durable identity and all managed projection fields only after the user clicks, and is covered by a refresh-after-click test. In `FreshAgentView`, guard both the `.lost` recovery effect and any deferred/reconcile callback on the current managed summary, use the same fenced retry call and inventory refresh, suppress the duplicate generic ended-session card while the managed lost card is visible, and reuse `startNewConversation` for the explicit new-conversation click. A managed `lost` or `blocked` state must retain the old session reference until the user chooses a new conversation; the explicit new-conversation transition must clear `soulId`, `incarnationId`, `runtimeState`, `viewIntentId`, `viewIntentRevision`, `soulIntentRevision`, `incidentId`, `placementGroup`, `resourceSummary`, and `recoverySummary` and mint a new `createRequestId`, while reconcile-driven same-conversation folds preserve their create key.

Extend `test/unit/lib/managed-runtime-recovery.test.ts` with real merge-plan cases proving a represented stopped/lost terminal and Fresh Agent receive the lost projection while an absent lost view produces no create.

 In `buildManagedRuntimeMergePlan`, match and update existing pane locations for `recoveryState === 'lost'` even when `desiredState === 'stopped'`, then keep the visible-only creation path gated to desired running souls; a lost soul absent from local layout must never create a new pane. In `TerminalView`, call `retryManagedRuntimeSoul(terminalContent.soulId, terminalContent.soulIntentRevision)` and then `queueManagedRuntimeRefresh(appStore, 'pane-recovery-retry')`; render the managed card before `TerminalExitBanner` whenever it owns a projected `lost` decision, so the user sees the explicitly labeled `Start new conversation` action. A managed `blocked`/`lost` card takes precedence over the generic exit/relaunch card for that pane; unrelated launch, owner-divergence, and handoff cards keep their existing precedence. Add a lifecycle guard at every TerminalView path that responds to an invalid terminal, reconnect, reconcile, or failed attach by minting a create key or sending an identity-less create: while the current managed projection is `blocked` or `lost`, those paths must stop after preserving the pane and wait for the card's Retry or Start new conversation action. Test the effect-driven rejected-terminal path, not only render-time absence of a create. For `lost`, use an explicit start-new transition that mints a new `createRequestId`, clears the old durable identity and all managed projection fields only after the user clicks, and is covered by a refresh-after-click test. In `FreshAgentView`, guard both the `.lost` recovery effect and any deferred/reconcile callback on the current managed summary, use the same fenced retry call and inventory refresh, suppress the duplicate generic ended-session card while the managed lost card is visible, and reuse `startNewConversation` for the explicit new-conversation click. A managed `lost` or `blocked` state must retain the old session reference until the user chooses a new conversation; the explicit new-conversation transition must clear `soulId`, `incarnationId`, `runtimeState`, `viewIntentId`, `viewIntentRevision`, `soulIntentRevision`, `incidentId`, `placementGroup`, `resourceSummary`, and `recoverySummary` and mint a new `createRequestId`, while reconcile-driven same-conversation folds preserve their create key.

 Add a focused close test with a managed terminal pane carrying a view ID and both revision values.

Assert a visibility refusal leaves the pane visible, reasserts the pane-open evidence, and exposes its existing close error surface; if a multi-view tab close detached an earlier view before a later refusal, assert the helper rolls that view back to `visible` using the response revision before leaving the tab in place.

Await every acknowledgement.

Keep terminal detach and Fresh Agent kill/close sequencing intact, and skip the managed PATCH for panes without a view intent.

+## Landing continuation
+
+The September 29 implementation and independent delta review completed at `c2907a4e0`; the old broad gate stopped on the pre-existing OpenCode readiness test. On October 2, all 13 commits rebased cleanly onto `091b24bf0` with unchanged patches (`git range-diff`). The readiness regression now covers the configured GPT-5.6 Luna and previous Big Pickle banners, ANSI styling, and inactive/missing input mode instead of the obsolete free-model requirement. The updated focused suites passed 668 tests, and client typechecking passed. Full-suite and browser evidence will be recorded in the external run ledger before landing.

 - Work in a dedicated worktree and complete the-usual workflow with tests and independent review.
 - Rebase onto current main, resolve overlaps, fix checks to green, verify affected browser coverage, review the updated candidate, and land via PR.

 ### Accepted tradeoffs and residuals
 - Runtime recovery internals and diagnostics may remain available to the implementation and existing panes; only unnecessary always-visible user-facing surfaces should be removed.

 - Rebase onto current main, resolve overlaps, fix checks to green, verify affected browser coverage, review the updated candidate, and land via PR.
 - Continue whole-branch review beyond the-usual's five-round limit until it passes, then finish the authorized PR landing.
+- Run independent checks and fixes in parallel; use separate worktrees when they would otherwise share mutable source or build artifacts.
 
 ### Accepted tradeoffs and residuals

 ## User Request
 
 ### Requested result
-Implement the revised durable-runtime UI so automatic recovery stays invisible; use existing yellow error popups only when a user decision or intervention is needed; keep System Status focused on system load; remove the persistent managed-runtime dashboard, routine notices, and per-agent resource controls; preserve existing agent panes and session history/actions.

Make the canonical test sandbox include the system libraries needed by the full workspace so test runs do not rely on ad hoc package installation.
 
 ### Explicit constraints
 - Use the existing pane/agent error surfaces and yellow error popups for failures or decisions.

 - Rebase onto current main, resolve overlaps, fix checks to green, verify affected browser coverage, review the updated candidate, and land via PR.
 - Continue whole-branch review beyond the-usual's five-round limit until it passes, then finish the authorized PR landing.
 - Run independent checks and fixes in parallel; use separate worktrees when they would otherwise share mutable source or build artifacts.
+- Fix missing test libraries in the canonical sandbox and verify the full workspace on a clean rebuilt image.
 
 ### Accepted tradeoffs and residuals
