Notes verification map

Updated 2026-10-01

This directory is the maintained source for verifying the user-facing behavior of Notes. Read the index before driving the app, then use the matching feature file as the recipe.

  • Launch Notes at http://127.0.0.1:4173 with a disposable data directory.
  • Set NOTES_DATA_DIR=/tmp/notes-verify-$RUN_ID so concurrent runs do not share state.
  • Seed notes titled Quarterly plan and Grocery list.
  • Put control-notes and the notes CLI on PATH.
  • Run control-notes doctor and require the expected URL, data directory, and build revision.
  • Never drive an instance that was not started by this verification run.
  • Start every recipe from the baseline state unless its preconditions say otherwise.
  • Prefer ARIA roles and accessible names over CSS selectors or DOM position.
  • Treat every command as literal. Keep quoted names and flags unchanged.
  • Run browser actions through control-notes browser.
  • Run terminal actions through control-notes cli -- <command>.
  • Restore seeded data after a mutation. Do not remove proof artifacts during cleanup.
  • Capture the user action and the resulting state, not only the final screen.
  • UI proof includes an ARIA snapshot and a screenshot with the app identity visible.
  • CLI proof includes the command, stdout, stderr, and exit code.
  • Mutation proof includes a read-only second view of the stored value.
  • Record the feature ID and entry point used with every artifact.
  • Report an unreachable path with the attempted command and the unmet precondition.
  • Do not report a skipped entry point as verified through a different path.

Each feature file starts with an H1 title and one paragraph describing the user-visible behavior. It then uses exactly four H2 sections in this order.

  1. Sub-features lists short IDs with one line for each behavior.
  2. How to get to it (user POV) lists every user entry point.
  3. Driving it with <harness> starts with Preconditions: and uses labeled bullets that pair each user action with an exact command and observable result.
  4. Gotchas lists traps that can waste or invalidate a verification run.

Keep implementation details out of the map. Name only user paths, stable handles, required state, commands, and observable proof.

  • Create a note covers browser and CLI creation, cancellation, persistence, and cleanup.
  • Search notes covers toolbar, keyboard, and CLI search with matching, empty, and clear states.
