The first write path. Read, forecast, and calibration were all real; now you can
*manage* CommiTea from CommiTea. Estimates/priority are exclusive label axes, so
a change is a label swap — proposed, approved, then written. Nothing is assumed.
core (@commitea/core):
- planIssueChange(current, change): pure diff planner — swaps the est/*|p/* axis,
clears on null, dedups a doubled axis; returns the resulting label set + a
before/after diff + noop flag. describeChange() renders "est/2d → est/5d".
- request() seam extended for writes (method/body, JSON, 204). client gains
listLabels() (name→id) and setIssueLabels() (PUT /issues/{n}/labels).
app:
- main bridge gitea:applyChange — resolves plan.labels → ids (cached, refetch on
miss), PUTs, returns the plan + fresh issue. Token never leaves main.
- preload + global.d.ts expose applyChange; useBacklog returns a refetch so a
write re-reconciles the board + forecast.
- Issue screen: an Adjust button (shown only when configured) opens a
propose-approve Dialog — estimate/priority pickers, live "est/3d → est/8d"
consequence, Apply/Cancel. AppShell wires it, reflects new labels on the open
issue immediately, and refetches.
Verified: 83 core tests green (7 apply-changes + 2 client-write new), desktop
typecheck clean, 14 fixture e2e green. Live spec exercises propose + CANCEL (no
mutation); the real PUT was verified once manually (change #2 est/3d→est/8d→200,
reverted clean). Icon: pencil (no sliders-horizontal in the set).

CommiTea
AI project manager built on Gitea. A deterministic scheduler does the math
(Monte Carlo forecasts over your own estimate-vs-actual history); the agent —
Reginald — captures work via interview, negotiates priorities, and explains the
consequences. Gitea holds human-authored intent; a pm-state repo holds
machine-derived state. The LLM never does math.
Structure
apps/desktop— Electron app (electron-vite, React, Tailwind)packages/core— pure TypeScript: label schema, scheduler, gitea client (no Electron imports)docs/PLAN.md— product plan (goals, phases, not-doing list)docs/design/— design handoff: tokens, component contracts, interactive prototype (docs/design/ui_kits/app/index.htmlvia a static server), brand voice rules indesign_system_readme.md
Development
yarn # install
yarn dev # electron app, logs tee to apps/desktop/desktop.log
yarn test # unit tests (vitest)
yarn typecheck
End-to-end (Electron + Playwright)
yarn workspace @commitea/desktop e2e # build, then drive the built app
yarn workspace @commitea/desktop e2e:only # reuse existing out/ build (tight loop)
yarn workspace @commitea/desktop e2e:report # open the last HTML report
Tests launch the built app (out/main/index.js) through Playwright's
_electron API — no browser project, no chromium download. Fixtures and page
objects live in apps/desktop/e2e/; screenshots land in
e2e/.artifacts/screens/ for visual review. Page objects use user-facing
locators (getByRole/getByText), never CSS/DOM structure.
Conventions
- Yarn 4 workspaces; ESM everywhere;
.jsextensions on relative imports @commitea/corestays pure — unit-testable without Electron or network- Design tokens are the source of truth (
apps/desktop/src/renderer/src/design/, mirrored fromdocs/design/); Tailwind maps onto the CSS custom properties, never redefines them - Reginald's voice rules live in
docs/design/design_system_readme.md— no emoji, no point-date forecasts, wit in sentences never in buttons
