feat: add reusable task templates - #65
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThis change adds persisted task templates, template CRUD APIs, template-based bot creation, safe template snapshots, configuration propagation, and a settings interface for creating, using, and deleting templates. ChangesTask template management
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR adds reusable task templates, but keyboard-only users may be unable to complete template creation, and live configuration updates can clear template data from open clients. Existing thread history may also exceed the intended screen-frame retention limit. These issues should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

- Around line 895-908: Update the bot creation flow around createBot so the
template name is supplied as the optional initial name before persistence and
greeting side effects occur. Extend createBot to accept and use that name when
provided, while preserving generated-name behavior when no template name exists;
avoid relying on the later patchBot call to set the identity.
In `@server/templates.ts`:
- Around line 3-19: Update normalizeTemplate so newly created templates always
receive a server-generated crypto.randomUUID() and never use value.id; retain
existingId only for the explicit update path when it is provided. Keep the
remaining field normalization unchanged.
In `@src/components/TaskTemplatesManager.tsx`:
- Around line 75-83: Add accessible programmatic labels for the name, title, and
instructions controls in the template form, using visible label elements or
aria-label attributes and associating each label with its corresponding input or
textarea. Keep the existing field values, change handlers, placeholders, and
styling unchanged.

Task templates are worth keeping, but the creation path is not ready yet. Client-supplied IDs can contain characters that make a template impossible to delete and can also collide; renaming the bot only after createBot means persistence and greeting side effects use the generated identity. Please always generate IDs server-side, pass the template name into initial bot creation, add accessible labels to the form controls, and cover the identity and ID behavior in tests.
|
Addressed the template creation review. Template IDs are now always generated by the harness, so client IDs cannot collide or produce undeletable routes. Store.createBot accepts initial template identity before persistence and greeting creation, and the template form controls now have accessible names. Added API coverage for server-owned IDs, independent deletion, and correct initial greeting. Focused tests pass (28 passed) and pnpm typecheck passes. |

What changed\n- adds a local, metadata-safe task-template catalog and App Settings manager\n- creates a new bot directly from a template, applying its title, reusable instructions, and computer preference\n- keeps template instructions in the local harness config; catalog/config snapshots sent to the renderer contain metadata only\n- broadcasts catalog changes so open clients refresh without a restart\n\n## Why\nThis provides a small, reusable starting point for repeated work without duplicating routines, scheduling, or a separate command palette.\n\n## Architecture\n- TaskTemplateConfig is persisted with the existing local config abstraction.\n- server/templates.ts owns normalization and safe snapshots.\n- template API endpoints are harness-owned; the renderer uses only safe catalog metadata.\n- instantiation reuses the existing bot-creation path, so provider selection and persistence behavior remain unchanged.\n\n## Overlap avoided\nPR #51 already covers routines, sections, search, and command palette. This PR deliberately does not add scheduling/automation or another command surface.\n\n## Verification\n- corepack pnpm exec vitest run server/templates.test.ts server/index.test.ts — 14 passed\n- corepack pnpm typecheck — passed\n- corepack pnpm test — 65 passed, 39 skipped\n- corepack pnpm build — passed\n- isolated harness + Vite browser smoke: App Settings rendered, template save succeeded, and Use template created the configured bot with no Vite error overlay.\n\n## Limitations\nThis is a reusable new-bot starting brief, not a durable multi-step workflow engine or scheduler. Template instructions are intentionally not shown in the catalog UI after saving; editing/versioning can follow once the selective Skills foundation is merged. No token/cost savings are claimed.
