Task 05: Prove automatic merge flows

Acceptance

Desktop E2E proves the fresh/default value, auto-only save/reload, enabled same-user compaction, and disabled separate-row behavior against the real backend.
Mobile E2E proves the switch is reachable, touch-safe, persistence-equivalent, free of horizontal overflow/nested scrolling, and clear of the save bar.
Every affected queue E2E scenario that requires multiple compatible rows explicitly disables automatic merge, captures all three install-wide queue settings, and restores its baseline in teardown even after failure.

Verification

cd apps && pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
cd apps/web && pnpm e2e:run --host tests/system/message-queue-settings.spec.ts tests/chat/message-queue.spec.ts tests/chat/message-queue-reorder.spec.ts
cd apps/web && pnpm e2e:run --host --project mobile-chrome tests/system/mobile-message-queue-settings.spec.ts tests/chat/mobile-message-queue-management.spec.ts tests/chat/mobile-message-queue-reorder.spec.ts

A focused E2E settings helper under apps/web/e2e/helpers/ if reuse avoids duplicated baseline/restore logic.

Dependencies

Task 04 and all backend tasks.

Parallelism

Sequential.

Inputs

Spec: default, enabled/disabled, cap, independence, persistence, and mobile scenarios.
Plan: E2E Tests.
Existing patterns: API baseline capture in message-queue-settings.spec.ts, busy-agent queue setup in message-queue.spec.ts, and mobile layout assertions in mobile-message-queue-settings.spec.ts.
E2E fixture contract: install-wide mutable state must be captured and restored by the owning spec; mobile changes accompany desktop changes.

Risks

Default-on behavior changes setup assumptions in manual merge, send-now, and reorder tests. Audit all multi-row queue construction, not only new tests.
Do not rely on test ordering or the fixture reset to restore install-wide settings.
Assert final authoritative state after the queue response/status event, not a transient render.

Output contract

Report summary, files changed, exact commands/outcomes, baseline restoration and cleanup evidence, blockers, risks, and update this task plus plan.md status in the same conversation.

Results

Added shared E2E setup that captures all three install-wide queue settings, disables automatic merging for separate-row scenarios, and restores the full baseline after every test.
Added real-backend desktop coverage for default-on persistence, auto-only updates, enabled compaction, disabled fallback, capacity-lock independence, and member permissions.
Added mobile coverage for touch geometry, save/discard persistence, overflow, scroll ownership, and save-bar clearance. Audited attribution, steering, sidebar-count, reorder, and queue-management scenarios that require separate rows.
Stabilized the existing row Send Now scenario by waiting for observable mock turn progress before requesting cancellation.
Verification passed:
- desktop Chromium: 20 tests;
- mobile Chromium: 4 tests;
- focused attribution, steering, and sidebar-count audit: 3 tests;
- focused E2E ESLint: zero warnings.
Blockers: none.

Review remediation makes shared teardown read the effective environment lock before restoring and omit max_per_session when capacity is environment- controlled.
