1114ee5ea0 [77719d3f] A2A team telemetry: coordination event notifications for 5 event types (#477)
* [13d03d5c] Add 5 coordination-event notification producers + wire at chokepoints (#472) (#474)

* [13d03d5c] Add 5 coordination-event notification producer methods

* [13d03d5c] Wire reassignment/collision/unblock/dependency-revival notifications

* [13d03d5c] Wire stale-claim-reaped notification into orchestrator reaper

* [13d03d5c] fix(runtime): guard reaper's UUID annotation + defensive attr access

The stale-claim-reaped notification hook added a runtime-unquoted
`UUID` type annotation (only imported under TYPE_CHECKING, so the
module raised NameError on import) and a direct `t.assigned_to`
attribute access that crashes against the minimal test doubles the
existing reaper test suite uses. Quote the annotation and switch to
getattr-defensive access, matching `_assignee_is_provider_parked`'s
existing convention in the same file.

* [13d03d5c] test(notification): unit coverage for 5 coordination-event producers

One test per new send_* method (reassignment, collision-sequencing,
unblock, dependency-revival, stale-claim-reaped) following the
existing _FakeDb/_patch_db_context pattern, asserting subject/body/
related_task_id/priority/recipient-count, plus a no-recipients no-op
case for reassignment.

* [13d03d5c] test(task): prove reassign + unblock don't double-fire notifications

Two chokepoint-level tests mocking NotificationService at its defining
module: a repeated reassign() to the same already-current target skips
the notification (guarded by comparing against the pre-mutation
assignee), and a repeated unblock() on the same task only notifies
once since the second call short-circuits on the status!=BLOCKED
guard.

* [13d03d5c] style(task): ruff format the collision-sequencing wiring block

No behavior change — reflows the newly-added _notify_collision_sequencing
call site to satisfy ruff format's line-length rules.

* [13d03d5c] docs(backend): add coordination-event notification producers guide

Documented the 5 new NotificationService producers (reassignment, collision-sequencing,
unblock, dependency-revival, stale-claim-reaped) with fire conditions, double-fire
prevention mechanisms, and implementation patterns. Updated backend README to link the
new services guide for developers integrating new coordination events.

* [8eb82639] Render 5 coordination-event notification types with task deep-links (#470)

* [8eb82639] feat(notifications): add APPROVAL type icon and deep-link component test

Add missing APPROVAL member to the frontend NotificationType enum to
match backend roboco/models/base.py, wire its icon into the existing
typeIcons Record in the notifications page, and add a component test
covering type rendering and the task deep-link.

* [8eb82639] docs(notifications): document 5 coordination-event types and APPROVAL enum addition

Added comprehensive reference guide explaining the 5 notification types
(TASK_ASSIGNMENT, BLOCKER_ESCALATION, REVIEW_REQUEST, DOCUMENTATION_REQUEST,
APPROVAL), their visual identities (icon + color), use cases, and
deep-linking behavior to related tasks. Updated panel README with quick
reference table. TypeScript Record pattern ensures exhaustive type coverage
at build time.

* [a27de2a8] fix(docs): reflow hard-wrapped notification-types.md to pass markdown gate (#479) (#481)

The Python quality gate on assembled PR #477 was red because the newly
added docs/frontend/components/notification-types.md (introduced by the
frontend coordination-event rendering commit) had manually wrapped prose
paragraphs, which scripts/reflow_md.py --check rejects as part of make
quality. Reflowed the file with scripts/reflow_md.py --apply (whitespace
only, no content change) so the check passes. ruff format/check, mypy,
xenon, vulture, bandit, and the full pytest suite (10284 passed) all
confirmed green on this commit; notification.py, task.py, and
orchestrator.py are untouched.

* [705419d5] Remove duplicate unblock notification and fix its dependent tests (#485) (#488)

* [705419d5] fix(notifications): remove duplicate unblock notification, fix its tests

The /unblock route was still calling delivery.notify_assignee_of_unblock()
(TASK_ASSIGNMENT) after TaskService.unblock() already sent the
send_unblock_notification() ALERT wired in by an earlier task — a real
duplicate notification on every unblock. Delete the route-layer call and
the now-dead NotificationDeliveryService.notify_assignee_of_unblock
method, fix the integration test that mocked it, and fix/extend the e2e
notification-coordination-events test to assert the persisted ALERT rows
(exact subjects) for both the direct-unblock and dependency-revival
producers instead of the old TASK_ASSIGNMENT assertion.

* [705419d5] docs(backend): update coordination-events doc for unblock duplicate removal

* [77719d3f] Seed system agent in e2e harness to fix unblock/dependency-revival notifications

The e2e harness's seed_company omitted the system sentinel agent that
production seeds via initial_data.py. The unblock and dependency-revival
notification producers default to from_agent="system", which
_resolve_agent_uuid looks up by slug in the DB. With no system row the
resolver returns None and _create_notification silently skips the
notification, so the two ALERT assertions got 0 rows instead of 1.

The soft-block test passed because it uses NotificationDeliveryService
which creates the notification directly with a real agent UUID as
from_agent, bypassing the slug resolution path entirely.

* [77719d3f] Use foundation UUID for system agent to avoid slug collision

The first attempt seeded the system agent with a random UUID. Other
tests (_seed_system_and_secretary, _seed_video_agents) check by the
fixed foundation UUID via session.get(AgentTable, uuid); not finding
it they INSERT their own system row, hitting ix_agents_slug. Using the
foundation UUID makes their check find the seed_company row and skip.

* [77719d3f] Fix dependency-revival notification event loop mismatch

The dependency-revival test calls _unblock_dependents directly via
stack.run_db, which creates a new asyncio event loop. Inside,
_notify_dependency_revival -> NotificationService._create_notification
opened its own session via get_db_context(), which reuses the singleton
_DbHolder engine — bound to the FastAPI server's event loop. The
asyncpg connection raised 'Future attached to a different loop' and the
exception was silently caught + logged as a warning, so the notification
never persisted and the test saw 0 rows.

Fix: add an optional db_session parameter to _create_notification and
the two send methods. When provided, use the caller's session directly
and skip the internal commit (the caller owns the transaction). The
TaskService's _notify_unblock and _notify_dependency_revival now pass
self.session, keeping the notification in the same event loop + session
as the task transition.

* [77719d3f] Scope system-agent seeding to notification tests only

Seeding the system sentinel in seed_company (commits 3bba7b32/617b7890)
fixed the 0-notification bug but caused 3 i_documented gateway_timeout
failures: every e2e test now paid notification-creation latency for
system-origin notifications that were previously silently skipped,
pushing the already-slow i_documented verb past its 120s timeout.

Move system-agent seeding out of seed_company and into a scoped
_seed_system_agent helper called only by the two coordination-event
tests that exercise send_unblock_notification /
send_dependency_revival_notification (both resolve from_agent='system'
via DB lookup). dev_lifecycle and state_machine tests revert to the
pre-fix behavior (system-origin notifications silently skipped, no extra
latency).

The event-loop fix (commit 7b95d77d: pass db_session=self.session to
_create_notification) is unchanged — dependency_revival still needs it
because stack.run_db creates a new event loop while _DbHolder.engine is
bound to the FastAPI server loop.

* [77719d3f] Fix reassignment notification deadlock + suppressed-notification commit regression

Two fixes in notification.py / task.py:

1. Cross-session self-deadlock in send_reassignment_notification:
   TaskService.reassign() flushes an uncommitted row lock on the task,
   then calls _notify_reassignment -> send_reassignment_notification ->
   _create_notification(db_session=None) which opens a SEPARATE session
   via get_db_context() and INSERTs a notification with related_task_id
   FK -> tasks.id. The FK key-share lock blocks on the request session's
   uncommitted exclusive lock, but the request can't commit until the
   notify returns -> 120s verb hard-cut. Fix: pass db_session=self.session
   so the notification joins the verb's own transaction, same pattern as
   the unblock/dependency-revival fix in 7b95d77d.

2. Suppressed-notification commit regression: the 7b95d77d refactor moved
   await db.commit() out of _create_notification_with_session into
   _create_notification's db_session=None branch, where it ran
   unconditionally — even when _create_notification_with_session returned
   early (suppressed: unresolvable from_agent / no recipients /
   refire-guard / dedup-hit). Fix: _create_notification_with_session now
   returns bool (False at each early return, True after delivery);
   _create_notification commits only when created is True.

RoboCo Control Panel

Next.js 16 control panel for the RoboCo AI agent system. Formerly a separate repository (rennf93/roboco-panel), now vendored under panel/ in this monorepo so docker compose up -d brings up the whole stack from one place.

Stack

  • Next.js 16 (App Router, standalone output)
  • TypeScript
  • Tailwind CSS
  • Radix UI primitives
  • dnd-kit for drag/drop (kanban)
  • pnpm for package management

Running in production (the normal path)

Use the root-level Docker Compose:

# from the repo root (one level up from this directory)
docker compose up -d

The panel is built as part of the compose stack via docker/panel.Dockerfile and served internally on port 3000. Nginx (also in the compose stack) is the single externally-exposed service on http://localhost:3000 and routes:

  • /api/* and /ws/* → orchestrator (FastAPI, port 8000)
  • everything else → the Next.js panel

The panel uses relative URLs (/api/v1, /ws) so nothing here needs a backend URL in .env.

Running the panel alone for UI development

cd panel
pnpm install
pnpm dev

That gives you Next dev-server on localhost:3000, but you still need the orchestrator reachable at localhost:8000 (or via nginx) for API calls to work. Easiest: docker compose up -d the backend services, then run pnpm dev against that.

Build scripts

  • pnpm dev — development server with hot reload
  • pnpm build — production build (outputs .next/standalone/)
  • pnpm start — run the standalone build
  • pnpm lint — ESLint

Where things live

  • src/app/ — Next.js App Router pages
  • src/components/ — React components (organized by feature: tasks, agents, channels, …)
  • src/lib/api/ — typed API client (thin wrappers over fetch)
  • src/lib/ — constants, utilities, WebSocket hooks
  • src/types/ — shared TypeScript types mirroring backend schemas (includes NotificationType enum)
  • src/hooks/ — reusable React hooks (see Frontend hooks)
  • src/app/(dashboard)/notifications/ — notifications inbox page and components

Hooks

The panel exposes public hooks under @/hooks. See Frontend hooks for full API reference and examples.

usePageRefresh

Page-scoped refresh coordinator. Pages register data-refetch callbacks; the navbar refresh button in src/components/layout/header.tsx calls refresh() and reflects the combined loading/disabled state. The button is disabled when no callbacks are registered (the registry is empty) and while a refresh is in progress.

import { usePageRefresh } from "@/hooks";

const { register, unregister, refresh, loading, disabled } = usePageRefresh();
  • disabled is true when no callbacks are registered (there is nothing to refresh)
  • disabled becomes false once a callback is registered
  • disabled returns to true when all callbacks are unregistered

Wrap your page or layout in PageRefreshProvider from @/components/providers before consuming the hook. Dashboard pages should register their refetch callbacks and avoid adding inline "Refresh" buttons; see docs/frontend/components/page-refresh-provider.md for the full wiring list and examples.

Notifications

The panel renders five core coordination-event notification types that signal task lifecycle transitions between agents:

Type Icon Color Meaning
TASK_ASSIGNMENT ListTodo green A task has been assigned to you
BLOCKER_ESCALATION AlertTriangle red A developer is blocked and escalated
REVIEW_REQUEST Check purple Your review is needed
DOCUMENTATION_REQUEST Info blue Documentation is needed
APPROVAL ShieldCheck emerald Board-level approval requested

Each notification optionally carries a related_task_id rendered as a deep-link to /tasks/{id}. For full details on types, icons, and adding new types, see docs/frontend/components/notification-types.md.

Dependency Management

Version Alignment

When bumping Next.js, always update eslint-config-next to match the same version. These packages must stay in sync. See UPGRADE.md for detailed procedures and troubleshooting.

Backend schema changes

When the backend changes response shapes, mirror them in src/types/ and the relevant src/lib/api/ module. Keep API paths relative so nginx routing keeps working.
