Closes#2401.

What & why

The record header exposed two competing edit entry points — a prominent Edit fields (the inline-edit toggle) and a buried Edit (full form) — an inconsistent, confusing hierarchy (worse in the page:header synth path, where the overflow logic pushed the primary Edit into the menu). This collapses them into one clear model (Salesforce-style):

  • Edit is the single primary CTA in the header (opens the full form). Share/Delete live in the overflow.
  • Inline editing moves onto the field: hovering a field reveals a pencil, and double-clicking it (or the pencil) flips the record into inline edit — focused on that field — with the existing Save/Cancel bar. No more standalone Edit fields toggle.

Single-click stays for text-selection/copy (these are read-oriented display fields with selectable emails/links), so double-click + hover-pencil is the right trigger.

Changes

AreaChange
RecordDetailViewDrop the sys_inline_edit header action → sys_edit becomes the primary button; overflow keeps Share/Delete.
DetailViewRemove the idle standalone toggle + the mobile inline-edit entry; Save/Cancel renders only while editing; add handleEnterInlineEditField + autoFocusField; thread onEnterInlineEdit to every section.
DetailSectionHover pencil + double-click to enter edit; gate the affordance and the input on field editability; auto-focus the entered field.
record-detailsGate inline-editability by object lifecycle (managedBy / userActions) — the gate the removed sys_inline_edit button used to carry.
i18ndetail.editInlineHint (en/zh) + DETAIL_DEFAULT_TRANSLATIONS fallback.

Guardrails preserved

  • Computed (formula / summary / rollup / auto_number) and readonly fields expose no pencil and never become inputs — even in global inline-edit mode.
  • Object-lifecycle gate: double-click is not offered on system / append-only / better-auth objects (honors userActions.edit).
  • Approval-locked records and the OCC / partial-update save path are untouched ({ [field]: value } stays the de-facto sanitizer — no full-record writes).
  • Mobile (no hover/double-click) falls back to the primary Edit button.

Verification

  • plugin-detail (vite) build ✓, app-shell (tsc) build ✓, i18n (tsc) build ✓.
  • New unit tests (DetailSection.doubleClickEdit.test.tsx, 5 cases) + existing DetailView/record-details suites: 129 passing.
  • Dev-server HMR clean.
  • ⏳ Visual browser pass on the showcase Project record pending (dev-server login).

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

… by double-clicking a field (#2401)
Replace the standalone "Edit fields" inline-edit toggle with a per-field
affordance: hovering a field reveals a pencil and double-clicking it (or the
pencil) flips the record into inline edit — focused on that field — with the
existing Save/Cancel bar. The header now shows a single primary Edit button
(full form); Share/Delete fall into the overflow menu. Mirrors Salesforce.
- RecordDetailView: drop the sys_inline_edit header action so sys_edit becomes
the primary CTA (page:header overflow keeps Share/Delete).
- DetailView: remove the idle standalone toggle and the mobile inline-edit
entry; the Save/Cancel bar renders only while editing; add
handleEnterInlineEditField + autoFocusField and thread onEnterInlineEdit to
every section.
- DetailSection: hover pencil + double-click enter edit; gate the affordance
and the input on field editability (skip computed formula/summary/rollup/
auto_number and readonly fields); auto-focus the entered field.
- record-details: gate inline editability by object lifecycle
(managedBy / userActions) so double-click isn't offered on
system/append-only objects — the gate the removed sys_inline_edit carried.
- i18n: add detail.editInlineHint (en/zh) + DETAIL_DEFAULT_TRANSLATIONS fallback.
- test: DetailSection double-click affordance + computed/readonly gating (5 cases).

… fields (#2402 hardening) (#2408)
The double-click / pencil inline-edit affordance from #2402 only gated on the
VIEW schema's `readonly` + computed types. It ignored (a) the OBJECT metadata's
`readonly` flag — the field enrichment deliberately doesn't copy it — and (b)
immutable system/audit fields by name. So a field the object schema marks
read-only, or a `created_at` surfaced as a section row, could be double-clicked
into an editor.
- DetailSection: `fieldEditable` now also excludes `objectDefField.readonly` and
a new `NON_EDITABLE_SYSTEM_FIELDS` name set.
- New `systemFields.ts`: the immutable-fields set — deliberately NARROWER than
the display-oriented sets in deriveLookupColumns/RecordDetailDrawer (excludes
owner/tenant/org, which are legitimately editable in some contexts).
- Tests: object-schema-readonly and system fields are not inline-editable; normal
fields still are.
