# Dev B Kickoff Prompt — v0.7.0 Plan B (Phase 4)

Paste everything below the `---` line into a fresh Claude Code terminal as the first user message.

---

You are a **senior developer** owning Plan B for the v0.7.0 "finish the extension restructure" release.

Your plan is **Phase 4 — Split `vault.ts` + lift `vault_locked` channel** (Tasks 4.1–4.7) of the extension restructure. You split the 1037-LOC `vault.ts` monolith into 5 focused modules — `vault-shell.ts`, `vault-sidebar.ts`, `vault-list.ts`, `vault-drawer.ts`, `vault-form-wrapper.ts` — trimming `vault.ts` to ≤~250 LOC of routing + state, add the debounced sidebar search, and lift the `vault_locked` RPC intercept out of `vault.ts` into `shared/state.ts`'s `sendMessage` wrapper (whose signature Phase 1 already laid). Effort: M. Phase 1 (the typed `StateHost` foundation) is already merged.

A PM in another terminal coordinates you with the other two senior devs. With the relay server running, you communicate via `post_message` / `read_messages` directly — no user copy-paste needed. If the relay MCP tools are not registered in your session, use the Python shim fallback (see **Relay server** section below).

## Setup (do this first)

```bash
cd /home/alee/Sources/relicario
git fetch
git checkout main
git pull
git worktree add /home/alee/Sources/relicario/.worktrees/phase-c-4-vault-split -b phase-c-4-vault-split
cd /home/alee/Sources/relicario/.worktrees/phase-c-4-vault-split
pwd  # should print /home/alee/Sources/relicario/.worktrees/phase-c-4-vault-split
```

**ALL subsequent work happens in `/home/alee/Sources/relicario/.worktrees/phase-c-4-vault-split`**. Per project memory (`CLAUDE.md` + the subagent-worktree-cd rule), **every subagent prompt you write MUST start with `cd /home/alee/Sources/relicario/.worktrees/phase-c-4-vault-split`** before any other instruction — otherwise the subagent may commit to main.

Today: 2026-05-31. Project rules in `CLAUDE.md` apply.

## Relay server

A message-bus MCP server is running on `localhost:7331`. You have three native tools:

- `post_message(from, to, kind, body)` — push a message; your `from` is always `"dev-b"`
- `read_messages(for)` — drain your inbox; call with `for="dev-b"` before each task
- `list_pending(for)` — check inbox count without consuming

Recipients: `pm, dev-a, dev-b, dev-c`. Use these instead of asking the user to copy-paste. Before starting each task: `read_messages(for="dev-b")`. After emitting any status/question block: `post_message(from="dev-b", to="pm", kind="status"|"question", body="...")`.

**Fallback:** If the relay MCP tools are not registered in your session, use the Python shim:
```bash
cd /home/alee/Sources/relicario/tools/relay
python3 call.py post_message '{"from":"dev-b","to":"pm","kind":"status","body":"..."}'
python3 call.py read_messages '{"for":"dev-b"}'
```

**Common pitfalls (avoid):**

- **Prefer single-line `body` content.** Some inbox-monitor scripts use strict JSON parsers that reject embedded `\n` literals. Compose `body` as a single line with periods between sentences; use ` -- ` for stronger breaks. Reserve actual newlines for STATUS UPDATEs you print locally only.
- **Python f-string footgun in inbox-monitor scripts.** If a polling script does `print(f"... {m.get(\"from\")} ...")`, Python errors with `SyntaxError`. Use single quotes inside brace expressions: `{m.get('from')}`.

## Required reading (in order)

1. `CLAUDE.md` — project rules
2. `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-04-extension-restructure-design.md` — spec (your scope is **Phase 4 / P1.5 only**)
3. `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-05-30-extension-restructure.md` — your plan is **Phase 4, Tasks 4.1–4.7**. Execute task by task. (Phases 1, 2, 5 are already merged — do not redo them.)

## Execution mode

Use **subagent-driven-development** (project default). Invoke `superpowers:subagent-driven-development` and follow it: fresh subagent per task, two-stage review between tasks.

**Every subagent prompt MUST start with**:
```
cd /home/alee/Sources/relicario/.worktrees/phase-c-4-vault-split
```
…before any other instruction. This is non-negotiable per project memory.

## Your scope and boundaries

**In scope:** Phase 4 Tasks 4.1–4.7 — create `vault-shell.ts`, `vault-sidebar.ts` (with the 80ms debounced search per DEV-C P2), `vault-list.ts`, `vault-drawer.ts` (incl. `ensureDrawerClosedForRoute` + drawer auto-close on non-list nav), `vault-form-wrapper.ts`; trim `vault.ts` to routing + state ≤~250 LOC; remove the `vault_locked` intercept from `vault.ts` and fill the body of `shared/state.ts`'s `sendMessage` wrapper with it; the drawer-state + (any vault) tests.

**Out of scope:** Phase 3 (Dev-A owns `setup.ts` + `messages.ts` + the `create_vault`/`attach_vault` SW handlers) and Phase 6 (Dev-C owns `get_vault_status` + the `vault-status.ts` renderer + its sidebar-footer wiring). If you trip over an out-of-scope issue or a new bug, file it via a `## QUESTION TO PM` block and keep moving.

**Hard rules:**
- **You create `extension/src/vault/vault-sidebar.ts`. Dev-C (Phase 6, Task 6.3) will later modify it to wire the status indicator into the sidebar footer.** To make that handoff clean, when you build `vault-sidebar.ts`, include a clearly-labelled footer slot in the sidebar markup (an empty `<div id="vault-status-slot"></div>` inside a `vault-sidebar__footer` element is fine) even though you don't populate it — leave a one-line comment that Phase 6 wires it. Tell the PM the moment Phase 4 is REVIEW-READY/merged so Dev-C can start Task 6.3.
- The `vault_locked` intercept logic is *moved*, not rewritten: lift the exact behavior from `vault.ts` (the pre-Phase-4 RPC intercept) into `sendMessage` in `shared/state.ts`. After the move, `grep -c "vault_locked" extension/src/vault/vault.ts` must return 0.
- Each module extraction is a no-behavior-change refactor — run `npx vitest run` after each and keep it green. Paste function bodies verbatim from `vault.ts`; don't redesign them.
- Do not touch `shared/messages.ts` — that's Dev-A's file for this release. If you think you need a message change, escalate to PM.
- Do not merge your branch to main. The PM owns merges.
- Do not push `--force` or run `git reset --hard` / `git branch -D` / `git worktree remove`. Per `CLAUDE.md`: ask first.

## Coordination protocol

You are one of multiple terminals. The user's only window into your work is what flows through this terminal and the relay — silence reads as "stuck" even when you're cooking. Narrate.

**Narration discipline.** STATUS UPDATEs at task boundaries are the floor, not the ceiling. Also emit `Status: IN-PROGRESS` updates at meaningful in-flight moments: when you dispatch a subagent, when a subagent returns a decision worth flagging, when a sub-task completes, when you change direction or hit something unexpected, when you start a new task. The `Notes` field narrates WHAT happened and WHY. Three sentences max; quality over length. Print every STATUS UPDATE locally before/after sending it.

**At every task boundary AND every meaningful in-flight moment**: call `read_messages(for="dev-b")` first, then post via `post_message(from="dev-b", to="pm", kind="status"|"question", body="...")` and also print it here. Format:

```
## STATUS UPDATE — DEV-B
Time: <iso8601 like 2026-05-31T14:30:00-07:00>
Branch: phase-c-4-vault-split
Task: <number / short name>
Status: STARTED | IN-PROGRESS | DONE | BLOCKED | REVIEW-READY
Last commit: <short sha + first line of message>
Tests: <green | red (which failed) | N/A>
Notes: <anything PM needs to know — keep to 3 sentences max>
```

**When you need PM input mid-task**: post via `post_message(kind="question")` with format:

```
## QUESTION TO PM — DEV-B
Time: <iso8601>
Context: <what task, what decision point>
Options: <A: ... / B: ... / C: ...>
Recommended: <your pick + one-sentence rationale>
Blocker: yes | no  (does work stop without an answer?)
```

**You'll receive**: `## DIRECTIVE TO DEV-B` blocks from the PM via relay. Acknowledge and act.

## Ship-it autonomy + simplify discipline

The repo has `.claude/settings.json` with broad allow + narrow destructive deny. You can write files, run language tooling, commit, push, and open PRs without confirmation prompts. Move at speed.

**Hard guardrails:** no `rm` / `rmdir`, no `git push --force` / `--force-with-lease`, no `git reset --hard`, no `git branch -D`, no `git worktree remove`, no `git clean -f*`, no `git checkout -- *`, no `git restore --source*`, no `sudo`, no `chmod 777`. If you genuinely need one, surface a `## QUESTION TO PM` block.

**Speed without spaghetti — required before every REVIEW-READY:**

- Invoke `superpowers:simplify` on the changed code. Either accept its findings (fix in the same commit) or surface a one-sentence rationale in the STATUS UPDATE Notes.
- Do not create parallel implementations of an existing helper. If you write similar code twice, extract.
- Do not add error handling / fallbacks / validation for scenarios that can't happen (project rule). Trust internal code and framework guarantees.
- Default to no comments unless the WHY is non-obvious.
- Half-finished implementations are forbidden. Ship a complete sub-task or surface a `## QUESTION TO PM` block.

## Authority within the plan

You don't need PM permission to: execute task-to-task per the plan, make implementation decisions consistent with plan + spec, write tests, refactor your own code, fix bugs you introduce, push commits to your feature branch.

You **do** escalate to PM when: a scope question outside the plan; a test you can't make green after honest debugging; a discovered bug not in your plan; anything destructive; before opening the PR for review.

## Final steps before REVIEW-READY

Run the project's full validation:

```bash
cd extension && npx tsc --noEmit && npx vitest run && npm run build:all
```

Then push and open the PR:

```bash
git push -u origin phase-c-4-vault-split
gh pr create --base main --head phase-c-4-vault-split --title "refactor(ext): Plan C Phase 4 — split vault.ts + lift vault_locked channel" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Plan C Phase 4 — Split vault.ts + lift vault_locked channel

Part of v0.7.0 (finish the extension restructure). Implements Phase 4 (Tasks 4.1–4.7) of `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-05-30-extension-restructure.md`.

### What changed
- Split the 1037-LOC `vault/vault.ts` into 5 modules: `vault-shell.ts` (DOM scaffolding + color-scheme + onMessage), `vault-sidebar.ts` (categories nav + 80ms debounced search + bottom nav + footer status slot), `vault-list.ts` (list/row rendering), `vault-drawer.ts` (open/close/render + `ensureDrawerClosedForRoute`), `vault-form-wrapper.ts` (`renderFormWrapped` + sticky bar + header).
- `vault.ts` trimmed to ≤~250 LOC of routing + state.
- Lifted the `vault_locked` RPC intercept out of `vault.ts` into `shared/state.ts`'s `sendMessage` wrapper (Phase 1 laid the signature; this fills the body).
- Tests: `vault/__tests__/drawer-state.test.ts` (drawer auto-close on navigation) + state `vault_locked` channel coverage.

### Coordination notes
- `vault-sidebar.ts` ships with an empty footer status slot (`#vault-status-slot`); Dev-C's Phase 6 Task 6.3 wires the indicator into it. Merge this PR before Dev-C's wiring commit.
- No `messages.ts` changes (that's Dev-A's file this release).

### Verification
- `npx tsc --noEmit` clean · `npx vitest run` green · `npm run build:all` clean (pre-existing 4MB WASM warning only).
- Done-criteria greps from the plan's Task 7.1 pass (5 `vault-*.ts` modules, `vault.ts` ≤~250 LOC, `vault_locked` count 0 in vault.ts, `SEARCH_DEBOUNCE_MS` present).

Emit a `## STATUS UPDATE` with `Status: REVIEW-READY` and the PR URL.

## First action

After reading: emit a `## STATUS UPDATE` confirming setup complete (worktree created, plan absorbed, on `phase-c-4-vault-split`), then start Task 4.1. Remember to leave the footer status slot in `vault-sidebar.ts` for Dev-C, and ping the PM when you're REVIEW-READY so Dev-C can begin Task 6.3.
