Tip

PR walkthrough: Open the visual walkthrough

Archived tasks could advertise recovery eligibility and trigger a resume followed by a workspace restore before unarchiving. The recovery path now treats archive state as authoritative, rechecks once after in-place unarchive, and preserves compact actionable failure details.

Important Changes

  • Gate backend session status and workspace restore on the current task archive state, returning a typed conflict so archived history stays read-only.
  • Make task detail, preview, and Quick Chat recovery archive-aware across hydration, archive races, unarchive, and retry while preserving the same session and workspace identity.
  • Show localized compact recovery summaries with accessible, collapsible resume and workspace-restore causes, plus touch-sized mobile Unarchive access.
  • Make archive cascades wait for runtime teardown ownership before allowing in-place unarchive recovery.
  • Document the corrected archive and unarchive recovery behavior.

Validation

  • Race-enabled Go tests passed: 5,063 tests across executor, orchestrator, task service, and orchestrator handler packages.
  • New archive-stop race regressions passed: 4 focused tests with -race.
  • Targeted web unit tests passed: 9 files, 105 tests.
  • pnpm run lint, pnpm run typecheck, pnpm run i18n:check, and pnpm run i18n:ratchet passed.
  • Public-doc validation passed: 61 tests and 46 pages.
  • Managed Playwright E2E passed: archived recovery desktop 3, mobile 3, and compatibility coverage 2.
  • Screenshot capture passed for desktop and mobile collapsed, expanded, and final states; assets were compressed and manifest-validated.
  • gofmt -l and git diff --check passed.

Possible Improvements

Medium risk: recovery cannot reconstruct a missing environment; the UI now keeps task history available and exposes the resume and restore causes for manual follow-up.

Checklist

  • If I do not have repository write access and this is a large architectural change, I discussed the direction in a linked issue before opening this PR.
  • This PR contains one logical change; unrelated work is split into separate PRs.
  • I have performed a self-review of my code.
  • I have manually tested my changes and they work as expected.
  • My changes have tests that cover the new functionality and edge cases.
  • If my change touches UI files (apps/web/), I have added or updated Playwright e2e tests in apps/web/e2e/ and verified them with make test-e2e.
  • I checked whether this affects public docs in docs/public/** and updated them or noted why no docs change is needed.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Archived tasks now remain read-only and non-resumable until unarchived.
    • Session recovery automatically recognizes archive conflicts and resumes after unarchiving.
    • Mobile task views now provide an unarchive action.
    • Recovery failures show expandable details for resume and workspace restoration attempts.
    • Retry controls are disabled while recovery is in progress.
  • Documentation

    • Updated task and workflow documentation with archived-task recovery behavior, errors, retries, and restoration details.
    • Added localized recovery messages across supported languages.

Walkthrough

This change prevents archived tasks from starting or restoring sessions. It adds archive-aware frontend recovery, typed archive conflicts, structured recovery errors, mobile unarchive actions, localized feedback, and desktop/mobile end-to-end coverage.

Changes

Archived session recovery

Layer / File(s) Summary
Backend archive eligibility and conflict handling
apps/backend/internal/orchestrator/..., docs/plans/archived-session-recovery/...
Archived tasks return non-resumable status. Recovery and workspace restoration return executor.ErrTaskArchived. WebSocket handlers map the error to a 409 conflict with kind: task_archived.
Client archive lifecycle and recovery orchestration
apps/web/hooks/domains/session/..., apps/web/components/task/..., apps/web/components/quick-chat/..., apps/web/e2e/tests/task/...
Recovery waits for archive state, ignores stale operations across archive transitions, retries after unarchive, and forwards archive state from task views. Mobile layouts expose unarchive actions.
Structured recovery feedback and validation
apps/web/components/task/ensure-session-error.*, apps/web/src/locales/*/task.json, apps/web/e2e/helpers/archived-session-recovery.ts, docs/specs/...
Resume and workspace-restore errors appear in a collapsed disclosure. Retry is disabled during recovery. Locales, requirements, design documentation, and desktop/mobile tests cover the new behavior.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 77c83

Archived tasks can still expose mobile actions that mutate MR or session state. The localized guard should be added before merge.

Greptile Summary

This PR makes task archive state authoritative throughout session recovery and improves recovery failure presentation.

  • Backend status, resume, and workspace-restore paths now reject recovery for archived tasks using a typed conflict.
  • Task detail, preview, and Quick Chat defer recovery until archive state is known, invalidate stale asynchronous work across archive transitions, and recheck after unarchive.
  • Automatic resume and restore failures retain separate causes behind localized, accessible details.
  • Mobile task views gain a touch-sized Unarchive action, with focused unit, race, and end-to-end coverage.
  • Public documentation and recovery specifications describe the corrected lifecycle and its limitations.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge, with archive gating, race handling, recovery feedback, and regression coverage aligned across backend and web paths.

No actionable failure remains after checking production callers, archive-event propagation, backend cleanup barriers, asynchronous request identity handling, and the archived session-status contract.

Findings

Suggestion (recommended, doesn't block)

  1. Extra GetTask DB call on every status checkapps/backend/internal/orchestrator/task_operations.go:2930

    • Issue: GetTaskSessionStatus now fetches the task row via GetTask before checking archive state, adding a DB round-trip to every status check on the hot reconnect/page-load path.
    • Why: Minor performance concern on a path that fires on every session view open and WS reconnect. The call is a PK lookup so latency is low; flagging for awareness rather than action.
    • Fix: No change required now. If the call becomes measurable, the check can be deferred until after the session state is returned (is_agent_running, etc.) and only applied to the recovery-eligibility fields, avoiding the extra round-trip for running sessions where no recovery logic fires.
  2. O(n) archived-task scan in useTaskapps/web/hooks/use-task.ts:22

    • Issue: Object.values(state.sidebarArchivedTasks.itemsByWorkspaceId).flat().find(...) runs inside a Zustand selector on every store update, iterating all archived tasks in all workspaces.
    • Why: Benign for typical archived-task counts (small, loaded on demand) but diverges from the O(1) keyed patterns used for active tasks and snapshots.
    • Fix: Add an itemsById: Record<string, Task> flat index alongside itemsByWorkspaceId in the kanban slice and use that here instead. Not urgent — follow-up is fine.
  3. isArchived vs archived_at inconsistency in Quick Chatapps/web/components/quick-chat/quick-chat-session-view.tsx:35

    • Issue: resolveTaskArchiveState checks task.isArchived === true (an optional derived field), while task-page-content.tsx uses task.archived_at != null (the raw API field). If isArchived is undefined, the function returns false instead of null.
    • Why: In practice tasks in sidebarArchivedTasks always have isArchived: true via map-task.ts:298, so this is not currently a bug. But the type mismatch (isArchived?: boolean) is a future footgun.
    • Fix: Use task.archived_at != null in resolveTaskArchiveState to be consistent with how the task page derives the same value, or widen the task parameter type so both callers share the same guard expression.
  4. Quick Chat archive-conflict race silently resets to idleapps/web/components/quick-chat/quick-chat-session-view.tsx:46

    • Issue: The full task page passes onTaskArchiveConflict: refreshTask so the task is immediately re-fetched when the backend returns task_archived. Quick Chat omits onTaskArchiveConflict, so it relies on WS events to update the store and surface the unarchive button.
    • Why: During the WS event propagation window the UI is idle with no error and no unarchive affordance. Fast in practice, but the behavior difference is implicit.
    • Fix: Add a brief comment explaining why the explicit refresh is intentionally skipped here (the WS event path is sufficient and Quick Chat's task source is the sidebar cache). No code change required.

Summary

Severity Count
Blocker 0
Suggestion 4

Verdict: Ready with suggestions. The archive-gate logic is correct end-to-end. The backend guards — ensureTaskNotArchived in RecoverSession and launchRestoreWorkspace, plus the early-exit in GetTaskSessionStatus — form a coherent defence. The frontend tri-state taskArchiveState, the generation guard, and clearArchiveRecovery correctly prevent recovery attempts while deferring cleanly until unarchive. Test coverage is solid for the critical paths (handler-level conflict, status suppression, fallback isolation, archive-generation races). The four suggestions are all minor and non-blocking.

Add an archived STARTING/ready regression case.

GetTaskSessionStatus returns archived sessions before shouldHealStuckStartingSession. The existing "stopping" case cannot exercise the healing predicate. Assert that an archived STARTING session with runningStatus: "ready" remains STARTING and is not mutated.
