📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The homepage was redesigned around a chat-compatible shell with canonical response footnotes, new prepared scenarios, static concept links, revised navigation, responsive styling, and updated browser coverage.

Changes

Public homepage experience

Layer / File(s) Summary
Homepage structure and component flow
packages/web/src/pages/PublicHomePage.tsx, packages/web/src/components/*, docs/architecture/public-web-surfaces.md
The homepage now renders the revised hero, chat shell, prepared question, answer footnote, unavailable Trace and Report states, documentation links, and /chat handoff. Header and footer labels vary for homepage use.
Prepared scenario contracts and capture pipeline
packages/web/src/data/landingScenarios*, scripts/lib/landing-scenario-generation.ts, scripts/generate-landing-scenarios.ts, scripts/*test.ts
Three ordinary-use scenarios replace four legacy scenarios. Sanitization preserves provenance, execution, workflow, and steerability metadata. Capture requests use a longer timeout.
Responsive homepage presentation
packages/web/src/styles/public-home.css
The styles define the revised visual tokens, chat layout, concept cards, footer, dark mode, responsive breakpoints, and reduced-motion behavior.
Homepage and browser validation
packages/web/src/pages/PublicHomePage.test.ts, test/basic-output-check/web.spec.ts
Tests validate the new content, links, metadata states, carousel accessibility, canonical footnote placement, responsive geometry, and mobile behavior.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to f738e

The homepage change is mergeable, though directly linting its browser specification will report undefined DOM globals until the test-specific ESLint configuration is updated.

Explanation

The PR satisfies several #685 objectives. It adds the editorial homepage, four linked plain-language blocks, canonical footnotes with captured metadata, refreshed fixtures, branding, and browser tests. Two required chat-shell behaviors are not implemented. PublicHomePage.tsx renders static ResponseCarousel content and an Ask a question… link. It does not render an attached input/form or reuse the live Chat composer. It also has no homepage state for retained multi-turn history or live, pending, and failure turns. The NYC announcement is inside the shell in source, but nycRecordsEnabled is hard-coded to false, so the announcement is hidden and is not present above the transcript at runtime.

Resolution

Implement the required homepage chat shell behavior without adding a separate backend. Attach the live chat composer or an equivalent /chat handoff component that exposes the required live, pending, and failure states and retained history. Render the NYC September 11 records announcement above the transcript when the homepage is shown, while keeping retrieval and archive behavior disabled.

Declare the missing DOM globals for direct linting.

The shared TypeScript ESLint configuration does not define DOMRect, getComputedStyle, SVGElement, or Element. When this spec is linted directly, these references can trigger no-undef. The regular pnpm lint command and CI’s full pnpm review ESLint step currently lint only packages/, so this is not a current CI-blocking failure.

ESLint 10 uses flat configuration, where /* eslint-env browser */ is not supported. Add the required globals to a test-specific languageOptions.globals block in eslint.config.mjs:

+    {
+        files: ['test/basic-output-check/**/*.ts'],
+        languageOptions: {
+            globals: {
+                DOMRect: 'readonly',
+                getComputedStyle: 'readonly',
+                SVGElement: 'readonly',
+                Element: 'readonly',
+            },
+        },
+    },
