Interrupted task warning
Overview
A backend restart can interrupt work while preserving its conversation for recovery. Users must be able to identify affected tasks until their agents resume. The task system owns the durable interruption marker and its visible lifecycle.
This revision changes the existing red error-style circle to a warning triangle. It also prevents a failed resume attempt from erasing the interruption marker. Implementation belongs to the recovery package.
Requirements
REQ-TASKS-INTERRUPTED-TASK-INDICATOR-001: Interrupted task warning
Intent: Show which tasks lost running work to a restart until recovery succeeds.
- AC-TASKS-INTERRUPTED-TASK-INDICATOR-001.1: Superseded by criteria 001.2 through 001.7. The previous migrated criterion required a red alert circle and cleared the marker when startup began.
- AC-TASKS-INTERRUPTED-TASK-INDICATOR-001.2: When restart recovery finds interrupted starting or running work, the system shall retain a durable interruption marker on its unarchived task. Idle conversations and executions that survived the restart shall not gain that marker.
- AC-TASKS-INTERRUPTED-TASK-INDICATOR-001.3: Unresumed interrupted tasks shall show a warning triangle in the sidebar and task card. The shared interruption indicator shall use the existing warning color instead of error red. Its accessible label shall remain "Interrupted by restart".
- AC-TASKS-INTERRUPTED-TASK-INDICATOR-001.4: Opening Kandev, focusing a task, or accepting a resume request shall not clear the marker. Failed, cancelled, or blocked recovery attempts shall preserve it. Successful agent recovery shall clear it and update visible task surfaces without a reload.
- AC-TASKS-INTERRUPTED-TASK-INDICATOR-001.5: The marker shall survive reload, reconnect, repeated restart, and updates that omit interruption state. A stale callback shall not clear a newer interruption marker.
- AC-TASKS-INTERRUPTED-TASK-INDICATOR-001.6: Phone task navigation and board cards shall show the same warning and recovery lifecycle. The meaning shall remain accessible without hover or reliance on color alone.
- AC-TASKS-INTERRUPTED-TASK-INDICATOR-001.7: Existing permission, clarification, current activity, and explicit terminal-state precedence shall remain. Temporary startup progress shall not erase the durable warning. Failed recovery shall leave the interruption state available alongside the actual recovery error. Explicit failure and cancellation icons remain unchanged.
Boundaries
Recovery follows the interruption contract. The warning does not cancel work, start an agent, replay a prompt, or advance its workflow. Successful recovery can clear the warning before a new message arrives; restoring the agent and continuing work are separate actions.
No new task state, manual dismiss action, or Office dashboard behavior is added. Reuse the existing marker and translated label. This is a task-owned indicator, not a separate UI-owned requirement.
