* refactor(web): extract measureCaretRect into shared util Move the textarea caret-position measurement helper out of rich-text-input.tsx into apps/web/lib/utils/caret-position.ts so the task-create dialog's autocomplete wiring can reuse it without depending on the chat-only RichTextInput component. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(web): allow custom prompts in task creation input Add an @-mention autocomplete to the task-create dialog's prompt textarea so users can quickly insert one of their saved custom prompts (built-in + user-created) by typing @<name>. - Extend useInlineMention with a promptInsertMode option. The default "context" mode preserves chat behavior (attach the prompt to the context store). The new "inline" mode replaces the @query text with the prompt's full content, requiring no backend changes -- the resolved text just becomes part of the task description on submit. - Wire the hook into TaskFormInputs via a small useTaskCreatePromptMention helper that adapts the existing textarea ref to the RichTextInputHandle surface the hook expects (focus / selection / caret-rect / value). - Reuse the existing MentionMenu popup component for parity with chat. - Cover the new branches with unit tests for makePromptItem / detectMentionTrigger / filterItems, and an E2E spec exercising the menu open / inline-insertion / Enter-doesn't-submit / trigger-inside-word paths. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(web): make mention popup clickable inside Radix Dialog Radix Dialog sets pointer-events: none on document.body to enforce modal isolation. The mention/slash menu portals to document.body and inherits the disabled pointer events when opened from inside a Dialog (the task-create flow). The popup was visible but unclickable: keyboard select worked, mouse clicks were swallowed by the Dialog body. Restore pointerEvents: auto on the popup container so it stays clickable when invoked from within a modal. Bump z-index to 60 so the popup also wins the visual stacking race against the Dialog (overlay + content are both z-50). Chat continues to work unchanged since z-60 and pointer-events: auto are no-ops outside a modal. Add an adversarial QA spec covering mouse-click select, ArrowDown + Enter on the 2nd item, Escape close, multi-line content auto-grow, backspace-over-@ close, space-after-@ close, no-arrow-cursor-shift, and end-to-end submit. The mouse-click case is the one this fix unblocks; the rest pin behavior for future regressions. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(web): address PR review feedback - caret-position.ts: wrap DOM measurement in try/finally so the mirror element is always removed even if getBoundingClientRect throws - useTextareaHandlers: destructure stable fn refs from mention before useCallback so deps are specific properties, not the whole object — avoids defeating memoization on every keystroke - QA spec: consolidate inline cleanupPrompts calls into a shared test.afterEach so cleanup always runs even when a test throws; update submit test comment to accurately reflect what is asserted Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(web): tighten ArrowDown selection assertion in QA E2E spec Equal filter scores sort by insertion order (stable), so qa-arr-1 lands at index 0 and qa-arr-2 at index 1. After one ArrowDown from the default the selected item is "SECOND" — assert that directly instead of accepting either value, matching the test title "selects the second prompt".

Kandev Web — E2E Test Suite
Playwright-based end-to-end tests. Each Playwright worker spawns its own real Go backend (no mocks of internal services) on isolated ports and a real Next.js standalone frontend, then drives a real Chromium against them.
Project layout
| Folder | What's in it |
|---|---|
tests/ |
Spec files, grouped by feature (chat/, docker/, git/, integrations/, kanban/, pr/, search/, session/, ssh/, layout/, …). |
fixtures/ |
Worker-scoped fixtures that own the backend lifecycle (backend.ts, docker-test-base.ts, ssh-test-base.ts, test-base.ts). |
helpers/ |
Reusable building blocks for specs (api-client.ts, docker.ts, ssh.ts, git-helper.ts, ws-capture.ts, …). |
pages/ |
Page Objects (one class per top-level UI surface — SessionPage, KanbanPage, JiraSettingsPage, SSHSettingsPage, …). |
playwright.config.ts |
Project definitions, timeouts, sharding config. |
global-setup.ts |
Pre-flight checks for required binaries (kandev, mock-agent, standalone next build). |
Playwright projects
The suite is split into three projects. Pick one with --project=<name>.
chromium (default)
The everyday surface — runs in every CI shard. Excludes the heavyweight containers specs and the mobile specs.
pnpm e2e
mobile-chrome
Same as chromium but on Playwright's Pixel-5 viewport, gated on tests/**/mobile-*.spec.ts. Runs in the same CI shard matrix as chromium.
containers — Docker required
This is the "real-infra heavyweight" project. Despite the name, it covers more than just the Docker executor — it's where any test that needs Docker on the host as a runtime lives:
- Docker executor tests (
tests/docker/*.spec.ts) — verify kandev launches realkandev-agent:e2econtainers, recovers them across backend restarts, cleans them up on archive/delete, etc. - SSH executor tests (
tests/ssh/*.spec.ts) — verify kandev SSHes into a realkandev-sshd:e2econtainer, uploads agentctl, runs an agent end-to-end, recovers across backend restarts, etc. The SSH executor's remote target is a Docker container in tests, even though the SSH connection itself is a real SSH connection.
This project:
- Skips entirely when no Docker daemon is reachable. Contributors without Docker can still run
chromium+mobile-chrome. - Builds container images on demand. First run builds
kandev-agent:e2e(slim Node base + git) andkandev-sshd:e2e(Alpine + openssh-server + git + pre-baked mock-agent). Subsequent runs hit Docker's layer cache. - Has a longer per-test timeout (180s vs 60s) because container starts + agent setup are slow.
How to run it locally (requires Docker running):
KANDEV_E2E_CONTAINERS=1 pnpm e2e --project=containers
Or a single spec:
KANDEV_E2E_CONTAINERS=1 pnpm e2e --project=containers tests/ssh/launch-task.spec.ts
Why "containers" instead of "docker"?
This project used to be named docker. It was renamed to containers once SSH e2e tests joined it — calling it docker was misleading because SSH tests have nothing to do with the Docker executor; they just happen to use Docker as the runtime that hosts the sshd target.
KANDEV_E2E_DOCKER=1 is still honored as a deprecated alias for KANDEV_E2E_CONTAINERS=1 for one release. Local scripts and stale CI configs won't break, but new code should use the new name.
Commands
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
pnpm e2e |
Run the default (chromium) project headless. |
pnpm e2e:ui |
Open Playwright's UI mode for interactive runs. |
pnpm e2e:headed |
Run headless project but with a visible browser. |
pnpm e2e --project=containers |
Run container-backed tests (needs Docker). |
pnpm e2e --project=mobile-chrome |
Run mobile responsive tests. |
E2E_DEBUG=1 pnpm e2e |
Surface Docker build output + extra logging. |
Common flags: --shard=1/4, -g "fragment of test name", --repeat-each=3 (flake hunting).
Backend isolation per worker
Every Playwright worker gets:
- A unique backend port in
BACKEND_BASE_PORT + workerIndex(default18080+). - A unique frontend port in
FRONTEND_BASE_PORT + workerIndex(default13000+). - A fresh tmpdir (
HOME,KANDEV_HOME_DIR, worktree base, repo clone base — all under that tmpdir). - A unique agentctl instance port range (
30001 + E2E_PORT_OFFSET * 1000 + workerIndex * 200). - Its own SQLite DB.
Workers run in parallel across CI shards (--shard=N/M); within a worker, tests run serially because the testPage fixture calls e2eReset on the shared backend before each test.
Mocked vs real
- Mocked: Jira (
KANDEV_MOCK_JIRA=true), Linear (KANDEV_MOCK_LINEAR=true), GitHub (KANDEV_MOCK_GITHUB=true), the agent process itself (KANDEV_MOCK_AGENT=only). These are third-party services or external processes we don't want CI to depend on. - Real: Everything inside the kandev backend — orchestrator, lifecycle manager, agentctl, SSH/SFTP, Docker SDK, git, worktree manager. The point of e2e is to exercise the real code paths.
The SSH executor specifically has no mock controller. Tests use a real Docker-hosted sshd as the remote target, and fault-injection (host-key rotation, dropped traffic, killed pids) is done by operating on the container itself.
Adding a new spec
- Pick a directory under
tests/(or create one for a new feature). - Decide which project it belongs to. Anything that needs Docker →
tests/docker/ortests/ssh/(lands incontainers). Anything mobile-specific → name itmobile-*.spec.ts. Otherwise it joinschromiumautomatically. - Import the right test base:
import { test, expect } from "../../fixtures/test-base";for normal tests.import { test, expect } from "../../fixtures/docker-test-base";for Docker executor tests.import { test, expect } from "../../fixtures/ssh-test-base";for SSH executor tests.
- Use
getByTestIdfor selectors. If the surface you're testing lacks stable testids, add them — drift-prone CSS / text selectors are not worth the maintenance cost.
CI
.github/workflows/e2e-tests.yml defines two jobs:
e2e— matrixedchromium+mobile-chromeshards.e2e-containers— single job, runs--project=containers, needs Docker.
Both upload blob reports that e2e-report merges into a single HTML artifact.
