feat(website): seed /agent with real proof, and surface list_cases - #175
Merged
Conversation
A second agent pass over the live page. Four of its five points landed, one is refused on the grounds that acting on it would make the page lie. The page opened on an empty room, so a judge with three minutes read a description of the thing instead of the thing. It now seeds one case per outcome on arrival: a lockfile settled end to end with nothing left, a source conflict split into one settled hunk and one waiting on a person, and a git failure explained. All three run through the same engine calls an agent makes, all three are labelled `example` on the case and in the log, and Clear removes them. The first case now sits above the fold on a 720px viewport, measured, where the previous build put it at 840px. `list_cases` was the strongest thing in the last change and it appeared only as a row in a spec table. The room can now show its literal output beside the state it describes, and refresh it when a decision lands: it reads "waiting on hunk 2" before, "merged file available" after. That is the loop closing, on screen, rather than asserted in prose. Copy: the hero was three lines of prose where it needed to be scannable, and the parse_git_error blurb ended on a sentence fragment. Both rewritten. list_cases now says what it is for rather than what it does. Refused, with the reasoning recorded because it will come up again: - A hero badge reading "MCP live · official registry · stdio · no API key" describes @gitwand/mcp, not this page. There is no stdio here and no API key to not need, and the registry claim is one I cannot verify. It would tell a judge they are looking at the other product. - A "Live proof" section of three hardcoded cards asserting "1 conflict, 0 human decisions". Hand-written HTML claiming a result is not proof, and on a page whose whole argument is that it shows its work, a judge who clicks an inert card discounts everything else. The seeded cases above are that idea made true: same three outcomes, real engine, clickable. Also fixes an honesty gap I introduced an hour earlier: the seeded git error was not carrying the example flag, so two cases announced themselves as examples and the third passed for real work.

A second agent pass over the live
/agentpage produced five UX notes. Four landed. One is refused, and the reasoning is recorded below because it will come up again before the deadline.Real proof on arrival

The hero was three lines of prose where it needed to be scannable. The
parse_git_errorblurb ended on a sentence fragment ("Fourteen of the failures you actually hit.").list_casesnow says what it is for rather than what it does.That fragment was supposed to have been fixed in the previous PR. It was not: the edit script printed a success line without asserting the replacement,
str.replacefound nothing, and the change was reported as done. Every substitution in this change asserts.Refused

"Input left, result right" for the file-a-case panel. The room is the result surface. A second results pane would rebuild exactly the two-things-competing problem the previous PR removed.
