fix(console-ai): Studio dock remembers a collapse; folded layout side-by-side at xl (ADR-0057 UX #2477) by os-zhuang · Pull Request #2478 · objectstack-ai/objectui

os-zhuang · 2026-07-14T04:43:50Z

First two of the post-cleanup UX follow-ups from #2477 (ADR-0057). Small, contained changes in already-touched files.

#2 — Studio dock remembers a collapse (per-tab)

The Studio right copilot still mounts expanded by default, but a user who collapses it to get the classic three-zone canvas no longer sees it re-open on every pillar / package switch or Studio re-entry.

Root cause: the stored expanded flag used remove-on-collapse, so on a default-expanded surface "collapsed" read back as "unset" → fell to the default → re-expanded. Fixed by storing an explicit '0'/'1' (parseStoredDockExpanded now returns boolean | null, callers fall back on null), under a Studio-specific sessionStorage key so it never shares state with the console dock. Console dock behavior is unchanged (default-collapsed either way).

#3 — Folded canvas + properties side by side from `xl` (was `2xl`)

On the common laptop (1280–1512) the folded center fell into tabs, which auto-hide the canvas the moment you select a block — breaking the WYSIWYG "edit and watch it apply" loop. Lowered the side-by-side breakpoint to xl (1280); the side-by-side inspector is slimmer at xl and grows at 2xl, so the canvas keeps usable width beside the ~420px dock. Below xl the tabs remain (no room for three columns + chat).

Verification

tsc --noEmit clean; app-shell + apps/console build green.
npx vitest run layout / console-ai / studio-design: 16 files, 81 tests green. New coverage: the stored-flag round trip proving a default-expanded surface stays collapsed after an explicit collapse (and console default-collapsed is unaffected); parseStoredDockExpanded tri-state.
Live browser proof to follow in a comment.

…-by-side at xl (ADR-0057 UX, #2477) - Studio right dock persists collapse per-tab (own sessionStorage key), so it no longer re-expands on every pillar/package switch or Studio re-entry. The stored flag is now explicit '0'/'1' (not remove-on-collapse) so a default-expanded surface can actually remember being collapsed. - Folded canvas+properties go side by side from xl (1280, was 2xl): the common laptop keeps the WYSIWYG canvas visible while editing properties instead of the auto-hiding tabs. The side-by-side inspector is slimmer at xl, wider at 2xl, so the canvas keeps usable width beside the ~420px dock.

Live browser proof (ADR-0054) — local rig, 1440×900 viewport, Studio design surface:

#2 — Studio dock remembers a collapse

Collapse the right dock in the Interfaces pillar → chat-dock-panel gone, chat-dock-launcher shown, sessionStorage['ai-chat-studio-dock-expanded'] === '0'.
Navigate Interfaces → Data pillar → dock stays collapsed (dockPanel:false, launcher:true, key:'0'). Previously it re-expanded on every pillar switch.
Re-expand via the launcher → panel back, key '1' (sticks too).
The console dock key (ai-chat-dock-expanded) stays null throughout — the two surfaces don't share collapse state.

#3 — folded canvas + properties side by side at xl

At 1440 (a common laptop, < the old 2xl/1536 threshold): studio-center-tabsabsent, studio-folded-inspectorpresent → the layout is [nav | canvas (live preview) | properties | AI dock] all visible at once (screenshot below), instead of the old tabs that auto-hid the canvas on block select. Canvas keeps ~520px beside the ~420px dock.

![Studio side-by-side at 1440](attach in review)

…2485) * feat(console-ai): edit-mode empty state distinct from magic-flow build (ADR-0057 A1.b) When the build surface is opened to edit an existing app (?package=X), the empty-state guidance was still the magic-flow 'describe an app to build' copy + from-scratch starters — wrong for editing a bound app. Now the build surface has two empty states, keyed on editPackageId: - magic flow (no ?package=): 'Build with AI' + build-a-CRM/tracker starters. - edit mode (?package=X): 'Editing "<app>"' + 'what would you like to change… I'll modify this app in place' + change-oriented starters (add a field / object / dashboard / automation). App name comes from metadata (editAppLabel); falls back to a generic 'Edit this app' title until metadata loads, so a raw package id (app.xadv) never flashes. agentEmptyState + buildAgentSuggestions gain the edit branch and are exported + unit-tested (8 cases). Empty state stays string-props into ChatbotEnhanced — no plugin-chatbot change. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(console-ai): clear plaintext chat cache on logout / user switch Conversation content + tool payloads are cached in localStorage in plaintext (objectstack:ai-chat-conversation-id:* and :ai-chat-messages:*). They were never cleared on logout, so on a shared machine the next profile user could read the prior user's AI threads (which may contain data surfaced by the ask agent). useChatConversation now purges all objectstack:ai-chat-* keys when the signed-in user changes (defined -> undefined = logout, or u1 -> u2 = switch). A mid-session auth flicker would also purge, but that only forces a harmless server re-fetch. New exported purgeChatCaches() so an explicit logout path can also call it. Unit-tested (purge scope, no-purge-on-initial-mount, logout, user-switch). Refs #2478 (M2).
