feat(web): task board with threads grouped by status - #34779
With many threads running, the only place that shows their status is a small label on each sidebar row. Answering "which threads need me, which are still working, which are done?" means scanning the whole list. #32344 describes the same need.
Change
A Task board page at /board (web and desktop), opened from a button in the sidebar footer or Open task board in the command palette.
One panel per status: Needs you, Working, Failed, Waiting, Done, Snoozed, Settled. The panel comes from the status the sidebar already resolves (resolveSidebarRowStatus), plus the existing settled and snoozed state. No new status model, no server or contract change.
A card shows the title, the sidebar's status label, the project and the time. Click opens the thread; right-click opens the same thread menu as the sidebar (the menu was moved to threadContextMenu.ts so both share it), including rename in place.
Panels can be arranged: collapse from the header, drag by the header to another column or onto the top or bottom half of a panel to stack them, drag the line between stacked panels to change their heights, drag a column's right edge to change its width. Double-click or Enter resets a size, and arrow keys resize. With focus in a panel, Alt plus an arrow key moves it (Shift stacks it under the next column).
The arrangement is saved per browser in local storage. A saved layout with unknown, repeated or missing panels is repaired on load.
Long panels page 50 cards at a time.
useResizeDrag gained a bottom edge for the vertical split; left and right behave as before.
Not included: mobile, and moving a card to change a thread's status (the board is read-only for status, so it cannot disagree with the sidebar).
Approval
This is a feature. The direction is proposed in the Ideas discussion #32344, which has no maintainer answer yet, so this PR does not have the prior approval CONTRIBUTING.md asks for. It is opened so the proposal can be judged on a working version; I understand it may be closed or asked to shrink (for example to the read-only page without arranging).
Evidence
Captures from an isolated dev server (vp run dev --no-seed) with demo projects and the Replay provider, 1500×860.
Before (upstream main): status is only a label on each sidebar row.
After, default layout:
After, arranged: Failed stacked under Needs you and collapsed, Waiting stacked under Working with a 65/35 split, Needs you widened to 400 px and Done to 340 px, Snoozed and Settled collapsed to rails.
Checks, on this branch:
vp run check:changed: format, lint, knip, typecheck (2 packages), tests (15 files), react compiler all pass.
taskBoard.logic.test.ts: grouping by status, layout repair, moving and stacking panels, pair resizing bounds, column widths (clamping, kept when the top panel of a column changes, reset).
TaskBoardPage.browser.test.tsx: keyboard moves with focus kept on the panel, a drop made by a single quick move, right-click menu and rename in place, collapse, stacking by drag, vertical resize persisted across remounts and reset by double-click, column resize persisted across remounts and reset by double-click.
Not checked: the drag gestures by hand in a real browser beyond what the browser tests drive (the arranged capture loads a saved layout), touch input, and the desktop shell specifically (it wraps the same web page).
takeover verification
merged main and aligned visited failure grouping with the sidebar. blacksmith vp run check:changed passed, including 16 test files. live replay turn, keyboard resize/reset, movement, collapse and layout persistence passed in chrome. the exact live failed-provider transition remains unverified.
This PR changes the test suite by +20 test cases (browser +6, unit +14, server 0).
New browser test files: apps/web/src/components/board/TaskBoardPage.browser.test.tsx.
Each browser test file costs CI seconds of module loading before its first test runs; a unit test costs milliseconds.
Keep tests that would fail for a real reason, and test logic below the UI where it can be. See Testing.

Summary
Thread grouping and board layout apps/web/src/components/board/taskBoard.logic.ts, apps/web/src/components/board/taskBoard.logic.test.ts, apps/web/src/components/Sidebar.logic.ts
Board logic groups and sorts threads by status and resolves saved layouts. It adds helpers for moving, collapsing, and resizing panels and columns. Tests cover grouping, layout resolution, movement, sizing, and drop-edge selection. hasUnseenFailure is exported with a narrower parameter type; its logic is unchanged.
Board panels, drag, and resize apps/web/src/components/board/TaskBoardPage.tsx, apps/web/src/hooks/useResizeDrag.ts, apps/web/src/components/board/TaskBoardPage.browser.test.tsx
The page renders status panels and columns with pagination, collapse, drag-and-drop, and pointer or keyboard resizing. Resize handling supports bottom-edge drags. Browser tests cover saved layouts, panel movement and resizing, and column resizing and reset.
Thread cards and rename context apps/web/src/components/board/TaskBoardPage.tsx, apps/web/src/components/Sidebar.tsx, apps/web/src/components/sidebar/threadContextMenu.ts, apps/web/src/components/sidebar/SidebarThreadRow.tsx, apps/web/src/components/board/TaskBoardPage.browser.test.tsx
Board cards provide thread navigation, context menus, and inline renaming. The sidebar registers the shared context-menu handler and can resolve threads outside its current rows. Browser tests cover context-menu renaming.
The app registers /board and adds command-palette and sidebar entry points. The sidebar marks the board route as active. Return-location tracking preserves the thread return path from /board. Documentation describes board interactions and saved layouts.
Swipe-axis locking ignores paths containing an element marked data-history-swipe="off". A browser test checks that an opted-out scroller does not trigger history navigation.
The task board is a read-only view with saved layouts and keyboard support, and no merge-blocking issue remains in the reviewed changes.

Explanation
The title "feat(web): task board with threads grouped by status" matches the main change. The PR adds a /board task board page that groups threads into status panels, which is the core of the changeset. It follows the conventional commit form and is specific enough for a teammate scanning history.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the template's main sections (Problem, Change, Scope, Verification) and gives substantial detail. It states the problem: status is only shown as a small label on each sidebar row, so finding threads that need attention means scanning the list. The Change section explains the /board Task board, its status panels, card behavior, arrangement controls, local-storage persistence, paging, and the useResizeDrag bottom edge. Verification lists the commands run, the browser and unit tests with the behaviors they cover, screenshots, and items not checked. Gaps: the Scope section admits the PR is a feature, not a bug fix, and no maintainer has approved it. The template says it accepts bug fixes, not features, so this conflicts with the template's scope rule. The Problem section also lacks a reproduction-style expected-behavior statement. The PR has no conventional commit title in the description, and the Verification section does not name the model and harness used, which the template asks for when an agent did the work.
Resolution
Scope: the template accepts bug fixes only. Either reframe the change as a bug fix that links an issue showing the bug, or obtain and link a maintainer request or approval for this feature (the linked Ideas discussion #32344 has no maintainer answer). 2) Problem: state the expected behavior explicitly, for example what users should see when many threads run. 3) Add a conventional commit title in plain language, for example 'feat(web): ...' if the change remains a feature. 4) If an agent did the work, end the description with the model and harness used. 5) Keep the existing verification and screenshot evidence; the screenshots are linked from external gist and upload URLs, so confirm they resolve and are not PR-only assets.

Inline comments:
Review comments at @apps/web/src/components/board/taskBoard.logic.ts:
- Line 65: Update the grouping logic around resolveSidebarThreadStatus and
PANEL_BY_STATUS so a thread with a failed latestRun, no lastVisitedAt, and null
runtime is placed in Failed rather than Done. Add this case to the existing
grouping test.
Review comments at @apps/web/src/components/board/TaskBoardPage.tsx:
- Line 546: Add a keyboard-operable way to rearrange and stack panels in the
TaskBoardPage component. Make the drag handle focusable and accessible by name,
and ensure keyboard interaction updates the drop target instead of relying
solely on pointermove; alternatively, provide keyboard move controls that
support both rearranging and stacking.
- Line 493: Make the resize reset available by keyboard on both the separator
using onResize(panelId, null) and the panel separator. Add a reset key action
consistent with the existing separator keyboard behavior, while preserving
arrow-key resizing and ensuring the action restores the default width.
- Around line 607-610: Update the drag handling around handleDragEnd so a drag
that releases before a later pointermove still resolves its drop target. Record
the target from the pointer position that activates the drag or re-evaluate it
from the release position before deciding whether to call moveBoardPanel;
preserve target updates during subsequent pointer movement.
Review comments at @apps/web/src/components/HistorySwipeNavigation.tsx:
- Line 62: Update the gesture lifecycle in the component containing the
`path.some` check so an ignored gesture resets between swipe gestures even when
`window.desktopBridge` is unavailable. Do not rely on desktop bridge events for
this reset, and add a test that swipes outside the opted-out scroller after an
ignored edge swipe.
Review comments at @apps/web/src/components/Sidebar.tsx:
- Line 2600: Update handleThreadContextMenu so board requests with
options.onStartRename take precedence over sidebar multi-selection and start
in-place rename; first establish whether sidebar rows also pass options, and
preserve their existing bulk-menu behavior.

Verify that the fallback receives the activating movement.
In @dnd-kit/core 6.3.1, the movement that crosses the activation threshold starts the drag but returns before onMove. If the pointer then releases without another movement, the drag delta remains zero. This fallback therefore checks the original header position and rejects it as the active panel. The previously reported quick-drop failure can remain. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
Confirm that the resolved dependency retains this behavior. If it does, capture the activating or release pointer coordinates instead of reconstructing them from event.delta.

Verify whether the resolved @dnd-kit/core sensor omits onMove for the activation-threshold movement; if so, update the fallback using start.clientX/start.clientY and event.delta to obtain the activating or release pointer coordinates directly, so a quick drop uses the actual pointer position rather than treating the header’s original position as the active panel.

The keyboard test checks DOM state and focus with plain expect. Use expect.element for locator assertions and vi.waitFor for column identity, section order, and focus assertions throughout this test.
As per coding guidelines and path instructions, “Browser tests assert through expect.element or vi.waitFor.”

+1. The "Needs you" panel is the view I miss most when many threads are open. If #35159 (plugin thread statuses) also lands, showing a plugin's status text on the board cards would make this a full task board for threads linked to an external tracker.
merged current main without rebasing and resolved the failure-helper conflict using the shared client helper. fixed one integration regression: opening a failed run now moves its board card to done, matching the sidebar even when its failed runtime remains.
extended the existing grouping test with seen and unseen runtime failures. it failed before the fix and passed afterward. blacksmith vp run check:changed passed, including typecheck, lint and 16 test files. both independent reviewers approved d886b0bd67. github ci passed and reports no conflicts.
chrome verification passed for a real replay turn, board navigation, keyboard resize/reset, panel movement, collapse/expand and saved layout after reload. the exact live failed-provider transition remains unverified. macroscope's human approval request remains for maria.
