Add agent templates — split quick-launch from job automation - #515
Merged
Conversation
Introduces templates as first-class entities for reusable agent launch
configs. Templates appear in Cmd+K, support runtime arguments ({{D:...}}
syntax), and launch normal agent sessions without supervision. Jobs now
reference a backing template for agent config, keeping automation
(schedule, timeout, singleton, reporting) separate from launch config.
- Backend: templates table, store, service, API routes, migration
that creates backing templates for all existing jobs
- Jobs refactor: reads agent config from backing template at run time,
job CRUD auto-syncs backing template
- Frontend: Automations pane with tabbed sidebar (Templates | Jobs),
template create/edit/launch UI, Cmd+K shows callable templates
- Nav: "Jobs" renamed to "Automations", /jobs redirects preserved
- SSE: template.changed event for real-time UI updates
- Docs: updated 17-jobs.md → Automations: Templates & Jobs

Create dialog now uses the same components as create-agent: Command combobox for agent type, PathInput with label, BranchSelect for worktree branches, bordered checkbox sections with descriptions for worktree and full access, and a styled textarea for prompt. Detail pane replaces the read-only view + edit dialog with an always-editable inline form (matching jobs SettingsTab pattern): all fields are directly editable with a Save button, plus a destructive Delete section at the bottom.

- Consistent sidebar styling: templates match jobs flat-list pattern with sliding tab indicator animation (framer-motion layoutId) - Launch speed: return full agent record from launch endpoint, optimistic cache update via setQueryData, navigate before awaiting invalidation - Cmd+K: callable templates replace callable jobs, with arg-aware launch dialog flow - Launch dialog: flex-row-reverse for Tab-to-Launch-first, form wrapping for Enter-to-submit - Update repo docs (17-jobs.md) and in-product docs (docs-pane.tsx) to cover the templates/jobs split under Automations - Fix E2E overflow test for tabbed automations sidebar Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- DELETE /api/v1/templates/:id returns 404/409 instead of blanket 500 - addJob cleans up backing template if job creation fails (orphan guard) - Extract sanitizeAgentName to shared/lib/agent-strings.ts - Fix shortPath to use platform-agnostic last-3-segments approach - Remove duplicate useTemplates() in agents-view; resolve template in useAgentHotkeys and return it directly - Add cross-reference comments for mirrored parseTemplateArgs Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Consolidate error-code classification into shared helper for all template routes (404/409/400/500 based on error message) - Use fresh regex instances in parseTemplateArgs/substituteArgs to avoid shared /g lastIndex state - Fix initialPins filter to use nullish check (!=) instead of truthy check, so empty-string arg values still produce pins Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Show all templates in sidebar (not just callable), fixing unreachable templates when "Show in command palette" is unchecked - Add loading skeleton while templates query is in flight, preventing flash of empty state - Replace inline "Settings saved" banner with a toast notification - Increase play button touch target from p-1 to p-2 - Keep delete confirmation dialog open until mutation settles, disable buttons while pending Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add callable checkbox to template create dialog so users can control visibility in Cmd+K. Move launch arg inputs inline in the detail pane header instead of requiring a separate dialog. Add release-readiness review persona for deployment safety reviews. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Show required arguments as a read-only callout in the template detail header. The actual arg input form stays in the LaunchTemplateDialog, keeping the detail pane uncluttered. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Routes the templates migration through assisted-update so the operator can confirm migration 0021 applied cleanly and the service is healthy. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The job list items have role="button" and names containing "Job",
causing getByRole('button', { name: 'Jobs' }) to match all items.
Use exact: true to target only the tab button.

…istory card (#790) - Jobs no longer appear in the Cmd+K palette (removed in the #515 template split); reword the 'Show in command palette' bullet to match actual behavior (callable badge only). - Job prompts never collect arguments at run time; placeholders are only substituted from API-saved default values. Preamble wording tightened (it includes job/run IDs, not the job name). - Job detail tab is labeled Configure, not Settings. - Sidebar job cards show status + schedule + enabled state, not finished time or next fire time; the Jobs overview lists upcoming runs. - Add ambient tip for job webhook triggers.
