Task 04: Prove Send Now end to end

Intent

Exercise the real cancel-and-replacement flow through the production frontend and backend on desktop and mobile, including exact row selection, bulk ordering, workflow-step preservation, and touch geometry.

Acceptance

1. Desktop Playwright proves selected Send Now dispatches the chosen row while preserving remaining order and proves header Send Now creates one FIFO- concatenated replacement turn.
2. The workflow step does not advance from cancellation semantics, and the authoritative queue/transcript settle without duplicate turns.
3. Mobile Playwright uses .tap(), proves both controls are at least 44px and reachable without hover, and asserts no document horizontal overflow.

Files likely touched

• apps/web/e2e/tests/chat/message-queue.spec.ts
• apps/web/e2e/tests/chat/mobile-message-queue-management.spec.ts
• a focused sibling helper only if needed to keep either spec below repository size/complexity limits

Dependencies

• Task 02 backend action and cancellation behavior.
• Task 03 frontend controls and stable test IDs.

Parallelism

The E2E and public-doc files are disjoint, so implementation work can overlap after dependencies complete. Final status/results edits to the shared plan.md record are serialized after both tasks finish. User authorization is still required before using subagents.

Inputs

• Spec scenarios for selected, all, workflow preservation, and phone parity.
• Plan: E2E Tests and Responsive and Mobile Contract.
• Existing helpers: openQueuePanel, typeWhileBusy, SessionPage, and mobile-message-queue-management.spec.ts touch geometry helper.

Verification

Bootstrap once if needed:

cd apps && pnpm install --frozen-lockfile

Run the focused scenarios through the managed runner:

cd apps/web && pnpm e2e --project=chromium e2e/tests/chat/message-queue.spec.ts --grep 'Send Now' --retries=0
cd apps/web && pnpm e2e --project=mobile-chrome e2e/tests/chat/mobile-message-queue-management.spec.ts --grep 'Send Now' --retries=0

If the managed runner is required for a fresh embedded build, run the repository build/sync wrapper first, then use the same focused Playwright commands. Confirm each command discovers the intended test count before recording it as evidence.

Output contract

Report files changed, RED and GREEN runs, discovered/passed test counts, desktop/mobile rendered evidence or artifact paths, teardown evidence, blockers or flake analysis, and synchronize this task plus plan.md status/results.

Results

• Added desktop row and bulk replacement scenarios plus the Pixel 5 row scenario. Desktop proves exact second-row selection, remaining FIFO order, one bulk FIFO-concatenated prompt, no ordinary cancellation message, and workflow-step preservation. Mobile uses .tap(), checks both Send Now controls, 44px geometry, no hover dependency, replacement content, and document horizontal containment.
• Discovery: desktop queue spec listed 12 tests and mobile queue-management listed 2 tests.
• GREEN desktop: cd apps/web && pnpm e2e --project=chromium e2e/tests/chat/message-queue.spec.ts --grep 'Send Now' --retries=0 — 2 passed in 33.4s.
• GREEN mobile: cd apps/web && pnpm e2e --project=mobile-chrome e2e/tests/chat/mobile-message-queue-management.spec.ts --grep 'Send Now' --retries=0 — 1 passed in 13.1s.
• The managed runner initially used stale embedded frontend assets; rebuilding with make build-web, make sync-embedded-web && make build-backend produced the final no-retry pass. No E2E artifacts are checked in.
