feat: color-code projects as an accessibility aid

[IAmJSD]

Note

This PR — code and description — was written by Claude Code (Claude Fable 5), working in Astrid Gealer's session at Infrawrench.

What

Adds the ability to color-code repos/projects as an accessibility feature, so they can be told apart at a glance. Pick a color from a nine-swatch palette (plus a "no color" option) in the sidebar's project actions dialog; it then shows as a small dot everywhere the project identifies itself:

• sidebar thread cards and compact rows (V2), search results, and thread tooltips
• the project filter menu and its trigger
• the Sidebar V1 project group header
• the chat header

How

Follows the precedent set by pinned-thread ordering (#5581) for server-synced per-entity state:

• Contracts: optional ProjectColor field on OrchestrationProject(Shell), project.meta.update, and ProjectMetaUpdatedPayload — optional/nullable everywhere so old servers and clients interop. New projectColor capability flag so clients hide the picker instead of sending commands a pre-color server would reject.
• Server: migration 039_ProjectionProjectsColor adds a color column to projection_projects; decider, in-memory projector, projection pipeline, and snapshot queries thread the field through.
• Web: projectColors.ts (palette + group-color resolution) and ProjectColor.tsx (ProjectColorDot, ProjectColorPicker). Colors are persisted as palette names and rendered via Tailwind color tokens, so dots stay legible in both light and dark themes. Dots are aria-hidden (the project name is always present as text); picker swatches carry labels and aria-pressed state.
• Grouped projects (same repo across environments) resolve to one color, and setting it in any environment colors the group.

Testing

• New decider/projector tests (set / clear / leave-unchanged) and a persistence round-trip test.
• Full monorepo typecheck and lint clean; web (1942), client-runtime (588), contracts (226), and server (1912) suites pass. The only server-suite failures are 6 pre-existing environment-dependent ones (service-launcher version mismatch on the dev box), identical on a clean tree.

Not included (possible follow-ups)

• Mobile parity (mobile ProjectFavicon sites don't render dots yet).
• Dots in the command palette / draft-hero project pickers.

Note

Medium Risk
Touches orchestration commands, a DB migration on projection_projects, and multi-environment fan-out in project settings; mitigated by optional wire fields and capability gating for version skew.

Overview
Adds optional project colors end to end so repos can be distinguished by a small colored dot in the sidebar, chat header, and project settings.

Contracts & server: Introduces ProjectColor and nullable color on project snapshots and project.meta.update / project.meta-updated (omitted when unchanged). Migration 044_ProjectionProjectsColor adds color to projection_projects; the decider, projector, SQL projections, and snapshot queries persist and expose it. Servers advertise a projectColor capability so older peers are not sent unknown fields.

Web: Palette helpers (projectColors.ts) plus ProjectColorDot / ProjectColorPicker. Settings fans color out to capability-aware group members; grouped logical projects share one resolved color across environments. Dots are decorative (aria-hidden); the picker is labeled for accessibility.

Tests & docs: Decider/projector and DB round-trip coverage, plus user docs for setting colors.

Note

Add end-to-end project color support as an accessibility aid

• Introduces a nullable color field across OrchestrationProject, OrchestrationProjectShell, ProjectMetaUpdateCommand, and ProjectMetaUpdatedPayload in orchestration.ts, plus an optional projectColor capability flag in environment.ts
• Adds migration 44 to add a color TEXT column to projection_projects in 044_ProjectionProjectsColor.ts; the projection pipeline, projector, and snapshot queries now persist and return color
• The server advertises projectColor: true in ServerEnvironment.ts; the project settings UI in ProjectSettingsPanel.tsx only renders the new ProjectColorPicker when at least one group member is color-capable, and fans out color updates only to capable members
• Sidebar, thread rows, tooltips, search results, draft rows, chat header, and legacy sidebar now display a ProjectColorDot using group-level color resolution via new utilities in projectColors.ts
• Behavioral Change: project.meta-updated events now conditionally carry color (absent = unchanged, null = cleared); getSnapshot, getShellSnapshot, and getActiveProjectById responses now include color, which older clients may ignore under version skew. The capability flag gates the UI; servers not advertising projectColor will not show the picker.

One finding on the new web palette module. Everything else — capability gating and RPC both resolved from member.environmentId, activeProject scoped to the thread's environment, ProjectColorDot placements inside MenuRadioItem's children wrapper, and the raw swatch buttons (exempt as swatches) — looks consistent with the existing patterns.

Approvability

Verdict: Not approved

Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This PR introduces a persisted, cross-environment project-color capability with a new settings workflow and rendering across several production surfaces. Although it is opt-in and backward-compatible for uncolored projects, its cross-stack scope and multi-environment write behavior warrant human review.

^{You can add or adjust custom eligibility rules. Learn more.}

[macroscopeapp]

Reviewed the web UI changes for shared-component, Tailwind ownership, and capability/environment-routing consistency. Two findings in apps/web/src/components/settings/ProjectSettingsPanel.tsx; the swatch/dot components themselves look consistent with the existing patterns.

Addressed the bot review feedback in f28c54d (after rebasing onto main in 120e81c, which also moved the color picker from the old SidebarV2 dialog into the new ProjectSettingsPanel and renumbered the migration to 044):

• Group color precedence (Macroscope): resolveProjectGroupColor now takes the group and prefers the representative's color before falling back to the first colored member, so a remote member can no longer override a colored primary checkout. Covered by new unit tests in projectColors.test.ts.
• Chat header ignores group color (Macroscope + Cursor): ChatView now resolves the header color through the same buildProjectGroups grouping the sidebar uses (resolveProjectColorInGroups), instead of reading only the physical project's own color.
• getCommandReadModel omits color (Macroscope): now maps color: row.color like the other read-model builders.
• Tailwind v4 variable emission (Macroscope UI-consistency): palette values are now a static PROJECT_COLOR_VALUES record of literal var(--color-*-500) strings owned by projectColors.ts, used by both the dots and the picker — no more runtime-built variable names depending on the unrelated color-selector.tsx for emission.
• Stale-snapshot guard blocking color changes (Macroscope + Cursor): this code no longer exists after the rebase — the picker moved to the project settings page, where the no-op guard compares against the live group state rather than a dialog-open snapshot.

Second round of bot feedback addressed in faf3e3f:

• Capability gate (Macroscope UI-consistency + Cursor): the project settings Color row now renders only when at least one group member's server advertises the projectColor capability, and setProjectColor fans out only to capable members — pre-color servers are never sent the field, matching the contract comment and docs/user/project-colors.md.
• In-flight guard (Macroscope): setProjectColor mirrors the adjacent setFaviconPath pattern (savingColorRef + isSavingColor), and the picker's previously-dead disabled prop is now wired, so two quick swatch clicks can't interleave fan-outs and leave the group with mixed colors.
• getActiveProjectByWorkspaceRoot (Macroscope + Cursor): the hand-built OrchestrationProject now copies row.color, consistent with getSnapshot, getCommandReadModel, and mapProjectShellRow.

Validation: monorepo typecheck and lint clean; web suite 3013 passed; server projection/decider suites pass. The only failing server tests locally (bin.test.ts headless-connect and two ServerEnvironment.test.ts cases) reproduce identically on a clean upstream/main checkout on this machine — pre-existing environment issues, not from this PR.

• Sidebar, thread rows, tooltips, search results, draft rows, chat header, and legacy sidebar now display a ProjectColorDot using group-level color resolution via new utilities in projectColors.ts
• Behavioral Change: project.meta-updated events now conditionally carry color (absent = unchanged, null = cleared); getSnapshot, getShellSnapshot, and getActiveProjectById responses now include color, which older clients may ignore under version skew. The capability flag gates the UI; servers not advertising projectColor will not show the picker.

One finding on the new web palette module. Everything else — capability gating and RPC both resolved from member.environmentId, activeProject scoped to the thread's environment, ProjectColorDot placements inside MenuRadioItem's children wrapper, and the raw swatch buttons (exempt as swatches) — looks consistent with the existing patterns.

Verdict: Not approved

Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This PR introduces a persisted, cross-environment project-color capability with a new settings workflow and rendering across several production surfaces. Although it is opt-in and backward-compatible for uncolored projects, its cross-stack scope and multi-environment write behavior warrant human review.

Addressed the bot review feedback in f28c54d (after rebasing onto main in 120e81c, which also moved the color picker from the old SidebarV2 dialog into the new ProjectSettingsPanel and renumbered the migration to 044):

• Group color precedence (Macroscope): resolveProjectGroupColor now takes the group and prefers the representative's color before falling back to the first colored member, so a remote member can no longer override a colored primary checkout. Covered by new unit tests in projectColors.test.ts.
• Chat header ignores group color (Macroscope + Cursor): ChatView now resolves the header color through the same buildProjectGroups grouping the sidebar uses (resolveProjectColorInGroups), instead of reading only the physical project's own color.
• getCommandReadModel omits color (Macroscope): now maps color: row.color like the other read-model builders.
• Tailwind v4 variable emission (Macroscope UI-consistency): palette values are now a static PROJECT_COLOR_VALUES record of literal var(--color-*-500) strings owned by projectColors.ts, used by both the dots and the picker — no more runtime-built variable names depending on the unrelated color-selector.tsx for emission.
• Stale-snapshot guard blocking color changes (Macroscope + Cursor): this code no longer exists after the rebase — the picker moved to the project settings page, where the no-op guard compares against the live group state rather than a dialog-open snapshot.

Second round of bot feedback addressed in faf3e3f:

• Capability gate (Macroscope UI-consistency + Cursor): the project settings Color row now renders only when at least one group member's server advertises the projectColor capability, and setProjectColor fans out only to capable members — pre-color servers are never sent the field, matching the contract comment and docs/user/project-colors.md.
• In-flight guard (Macroscope): setProjectColor mirrors the adjacent setFaviconPath pattern (savingColorRef + isSavingColor), and the picker's previously-dead disabled prop is now wired, so two quick swatch clicks can't interleave fan-outs and leave the group with mixed colors.
• getActiveProjectByWorkspaceRoot (Macroscope + Cursor): the hand-built OrchestrationProject now copies row.color, consistent with getSnapshot, getCommandReadModel, and mapProjectShellRow.

Validation: monorepo typecheck and lint clean; web suite 3013 passed; server projection/decider suites pass. The only failing server tests locally (bin.test.ts headless-connect and two ServerEnvironment.test.ts cases) reproduce identically on a clean upstream/main checkout on this machine — pre-existing environment issues, not from this PR.

What

Adds the ability to color-code repos/projects as an accessibility feature, so they can be told apart at a glance. Pick a color from a nine-swatch palette (plus a "no color" option) in the sidebar's project actions dialog; it then shows as a small dot everywhere the project identifies itself:

• sidebar thread cards and compact rows (V2), search results, and thread tooltips
• the project filter menu and its trigger
• the Sidebar V1 project group header
• the chat header

How

Follows the precedent set by pinned-thread ordering (#5581) for server-synced per-entity state:

• Contracts: optional ProjectColor field on OrchestrationProject(Shell), project.meta.update, and ProjectMetaUpdatedPayload — optional/nullable everywhere so old servers and clients interop. New projectColor capability flag so clients hide the picker instead of sending commands a pre-color server would reject.
• Server: migration 039_ProjectionProjectsColor adds a color column to projection_projects; decider, in-memory projector, projection pipeline, and snapshot queries thread the field through.
• Web: projectColors.ts (palette + group-color resolution) and ProjectColor.tsx (ProjectColorDot, ProjectColorPicker). Colors are persisted as palette names and rendered via Tailwind color tokens, so dots stay legible in both light and dark themes. Dots are aria-hidden (the project name is always present as text); picker swatches carry labels and aria-pressed state.
• Grouped projects (same repo across environments) resolve to one color, and setting it in any environment colors the group.

Testing

• New decider/projector tests (set / clear / leave-unchanged) and a persistence round-trip test.
• Full monorepo typecheck and lint clean; web (1942), client-runtime (588), contracts (226), and server (1912) suites pass. The only server-suite failures are 6 pre-existing environment-dependent ones (service-launcher version mismatch on the dev box), identical on a clean tree.

Not included (possible follow-ups)

• Mobile parity (mobile ProjectFavicon sites don't render dots yet).
• Dots in the command palette / draft-hero project pickers.

Note

Medium Risk
Touches orchestration commands, a DB migration on projection_projects, and multi-environment fan-out in project settings; mitigated by optional wire fields and capability gating for version skew.

Overview
Adds optional project colors end to end so repos can be distinguished by a small colored dot in the sidebar, chat header, and project settings.

Contracts & server: Introduces ProjectColor and nullable color on project snapshots and project.meta.update / project.meta-updated (omitted when unchanged). Migration 044_ProjectionProjectsColor adds color to projection_projects; the decider, projector, SQL projections, and snapshot queries persist and expose it. Servers advertise a projectColor capability so older peers are not sent unknown fields.

Web: Palette helpers (projectColors.ts) plus ProjectColorDot / ProjectColorPicker. Settings fans color out to capability-aware group members; grouped logical projects share one resolved color across environments. Dots are decorative (aria-hidden); the picker is labeled for accessibility.

Tests & docs: Decider/projector and DB round-trip coverage, plus user docs for setting colors.

Add end-to-end project color support as an accessibility aid

• Stale-snapshot guard blocking color changes (Macroscope + Cursor): this code no longer exists after the rebase — the picker moved to the project settings page, where the no-op guard compares against the live group state rather than a dialog-open snapshot.

Second round of bot feedback addressed in faf3e3f:

• Capability gate (Macroscope UI-consistency + Cursor): the project settings Color row now renders only when at least one group member's server advertises the projectColor capability, and setProjectColor fans out only to capable members — pre-color servers are never sent the field, matching the contract comment and docs/user/project-colors.md.
• In-flight guard (Macroscope): setProjectColor mirrors the adjacent setFaviconPath pattern (savingColorRef + isSavingColor), and the picker's previously-dead disabled prop is now wired, so two quick swatch clicks can't interleave fan-outs and leave the group with mixed colors.
• getActiveProjectByWorkspaceRoot (Macroscope + Cursor): the hand-built OrchestrationProject now copies row.color, consistent with getSnapshot, getCommandReadModel, and mapProjectShellRow.

Validation: monorepo typecheck and lint clean; web suite 3013 passed; server projection/decider suites pass. The only failing server tests locally (bin.test.ts headless-connect and two ServerEnvironment.test.ts cases) reproduce identically on a clean upstream/main checkout on this machine — pre-existing environment issues, not from this PR.

What

Adds the ability to color-code repos/projects as an accessibility feature, so they can be told apart at a glance. Pick a color from a nine-swatch palette (plus a "no color" option) in the sidebar's project actions dialog; it then shows as a small dot everywhere the project identifies itself:

• sidebar thread cards and compact rows (V2), search results, and thread tooltips
• the project filter menu and its trigger
• the Sidebar V1 project group header
• the chat header

How

Follows the precedent set by pinned-thread ordering (#5581) for server-synced per-entity state:

• Contracts: optional ProjectColor field on OrchestrationProject(Shell), project.meta.update, and ProjectMetaUpdatedPayload — optional/nullable everywhere so old servers and clients interop. New projectColor capability flag so clients hide the picker instead of sending commands a pre-color server would reject.
• Server: migration 039_ProjectionProjectsColor adds a color column to projection_projects; decider, in-memory projector, projection pipeline, and snapshot queries thread the field through.
• Web: projectColors.ts (palette + group-color resolution) and ProjectColor.tsx (ProjectColorDot, ProjectColorPicker). Colors are persisted as palette names and rendered via Tailwind color tokens, so dots stay legible in both light and dark themes. Dots are aria-hidden (the project name is always present as text); picker swatches carry labels and aria-pressed state.
• Grouped projects (same repo across environments) resolve to one color, and setting it in any environment colors the group.

Testing

• New decider/projector tests (set / clear / leave-unchanged) and a persistence round-trip test.
• Full monorepo typecheck and lint clean; web (1942), client-runtime (588), contracts (226), and server (1912) suites pass. The only server-suite failures are 6 pre-existing environment-dependent ones (service-launcher version mismatch on the dev box), identical on a clean tree.

Not included (possible follow-ups)

• Mobile parity (mobile ProjectFavicon sites don't render dots yet).
• Dots in the command palette / draft-hero project pickers.

Medium Risk
Touches orchestration commands, a DB migration on projection_projects, and multi-environment fan-out in project settings; mitigated by optional wire fields and capability gating for version skew.

Overview
Adds optional project colors end to end so repos can be distinguished by a small colored dot in the sidebar, chat header, and project settings.

Contracts & server: Introduces ProjectColor and nullable color on project snapshots and project.meta.update / project.meta-updated (omitted when unchanged). Migration 044_ProjectionProjectsColor adds color to projection_projects; the decider, projector, SQL projections, and snapshot queries persist and expose it. Servers advertise a projectColor capability so older peers are not sent unknown fields.

Web: Palette helpers (projectColors.ts) plus ProjectColorDot / ProjectColorPicker. Settings fans color out to capability-aware group members; grouped logical projects share one resolved color across environments. Dots are decorative (aria-hidden); the picker is labeled for accessibility.

Tests & docs: Decider/projector and DB round-trip coverage, plus user docs for setting colors.

Note

Add end-to-end project color support as an accessibility aid

• Introduces a nullable color field across OrchestrationProject, OrchestrationProjectShell, ProjectMetaUpdateCommand, and ProjectMetaUpdatedPayload in orchestration.ts, plus an optional projectColor capability flag in environment.ts
• Adds migration 44 to add a color TEXT column to projection_projects in 044_ProjectionProjectsColor.ts; the projection pipeline, projector, and snapshot queries now persist and return color
• The server advertises projectColor: true in ServerEnvironment.ts; the project settings UI in ProjectSettingsPanel.tsx only renders the new ProjectColorPicker when at least one group member is color-capable, and fans out color updates only to capable members
• Sidebar, thread rows, tooltips, search results, draft rows, chat header, and legacy sidebar now display a ProjectColorDot using group-level color resolution via new utilities in projectColors.ts
• Behavioral Change: project.meta-updated events now conditionally carry color (absent = unchanged, null = cleared); getSnapshot, getShellSnapshot, and getActiveProjectById responses now include color, which older clients may ignore under version skew. The capability flag gates the UI; servers not advertising projectColor will not show the picker.

One finding on the new web palette module. Everything else — capability gating and RPC both resolved from member.environmentId, activeProject scoped to the thread's environment, ProjectColorDot placements inside MenuRadioItem's children wrapper, and the raw swatch buttons (exempt as swatches) — looks consistent with the existing patterns.

Approvability

Verdict: Not approved

Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This PR introduces a persisted, cross-environment project-color capability with a new settings workflow and rendering across several production surfaces. Although it is opt-in and backward-compatible for uncolored projects, its cross-stack scope and multi-environment write behavior warrant human review.

^{You can add or adjust custom eligibility rules. Learn more.}

[macroscopeapp]

Reviewed the web UI changes for shared-component, Tailwind ownership, and capability/environment-routing consistency. Two findings in apps/web/src/components/settings/ProjectSettingsPanel.tsx; the swatch/dot components themselves look consistent with the existing patterns.

Addressed the bot review feedback in f28c54d (after rebasing onto main in 120e81c, which also moved the color picker from the old SidebarV2 dialog into the new ProjectSettingsPanel and renumbered the migration to 044):

• Group color precedence (Macroscope): resolveProjectGroupColor now takes the group and prefers the representative's color before falling back to the first colored member, so a remote member can no longer override a colored primary checkout. Covered by new unit tests in projectColors.test.ts.
• Chat header ignores group color (Macroscope + Cursor): ChatView now resolves the header color through the same buildProjectGroups grouping the sidebar uses (resolveProjectColorInGroups), instead of reading only the physical project's own color.
• getCommandReadModel omits color (Macroscope): now maps color: row.color like the other read-model builders.
• Tailwind v4 variable emission (Macroscope UI-consistency): palette values are now a static PROJECT_COLOR_VALUES record of literal var(--color-*-500) strings owned by projectColors.ts, used by both the dots and the picker — no more runtime-built variable names depending on the unrelated color-selector.tsx for emission.
• Stale-snapshot guard blocking color changes (Macroscope + Cursor): this code no longer exists after the rebase — the picker moved to the project settings page, where the no-op guard compares against the live group state rather than a dialog-open snapshot.
