Focused follow-up work for @knighted/develop.
-
In-browser component testing
- Explore authoring and running component-focused tests in-browser (for example, a Vitest-compatible flow) using CDN-delivered tooling.
- Define a lightweight test UX that supports writing tests, running them on demand, and displaying results in-app.
-
CDN failure recovery UX
- Detect transient CDN/module loading failures and surface a clear recovery action in-app.
- Add a user-triggered retry path (for example, Reload page / Force reload) when runtime bootstrap imports fail.
- Consider an optional automatic one-time retry before showing recovery controls, while avoiding infinite reload loops.
-
Deterministic E2E lane in CI
- Add an integration-style E2E path that uses locally served/pinned copies of CDN runtime dependencies for test execution, while keeping production runtime behavior unchanged.
- Keep the current true CDN-backed E2E path as a separate smoke check, but make the deterministic lane the required gate for pull requests.
- Run this deterministic E2E suite on every pull request in CI.
- Ensure the deterministic lane still exercises the same user-facing flows (render, typecheck, lint, diagnostics drawer/button states), only swapping the source of runtime artifacts.
- Suggested implementation prompt:
- "Add a deterministic E2E execution mode for
@knighted/developthat serves pinned runtime artifacts locally (instead of live CDN fetches) and wire it into CI as a required check on every PR. Keep a separate lightweight CDN-smoke E2E check for real-network coverage. Validate withnpm run lint, deterministic Playwright PR checks, and one CDN-smoke Playwright run."

Evaluate GitHub file upsert request strategy (metadata-first vs optimistic PUT)
- Revisit the current metadata-first
upsertRepositoryFileapproach and compare it against an optimistic PUT + targeted retry-on-missing-sha flow. - Measure tradeoffs for latency, GitHub API request count/rate-limit impact, and browser-console signal quality during common PR flows.
- If beneficial, introduce a configurable/hybrid strategy (for example, optimistic default with metadata fallback) without regressing current reliability.
- Suggested implementation prompt:
- "Evaluate and optionally optimize @knighted/develop GitHub file upsert behavior. Compare metadata-first preflight GET+PUT against optimistic PUT with retry-on-missing-sha for existing files. Keep current reliability guarantees and avoid reintroducing noisy false-positive failures. If implementing a hybrid/configurable strategy, keep defaults conservative, update docs, and validate with npm run lint plus targeted Playwright PR drawer flows."

-
Remove pre-multitab component/styles compatibility paths
- Delete code paths that preserve or translate legacy single-component/single-styles storage and sync behavior from before the multitab update.
- Remove backward-compatibility shims, fallback field reads, and migration glue tied to old
componentFilePath/stylesFilePath-style assumptions when equivalent tab-derived data exists. - Favor one canonical tab-first data contract across local storage, IndexedDB workspace records, PR sync metadata, and commit target derivation.
- Accept breaking changes for old locally stored app state to simplify maintenance and reduce branching logic.
- Suggested implementation prompt:
- "Remove backwards-compatibility code in @knighted/develop that supports pre-multitab component/styles storage/sync behavior. Standardize on the current tab-derived schema only, delete legacy field fallbacks and migration helpers, and update tests/docs to match the simplified contract. Validate with npm run lint and targeted Playwright suites for workspace tabs + PR drawer flows."
