Leo-ask: ask-e37374af1f

Leo, on the top-right Needs you popover (the chat header's badge and its list): "styling is shit on the top right bit".

This restyles that list only. Every behaviour stays: one-click answers, Go to source, Ask about this, compact mode, the empty state and the row a link opened the list on. It doesn't touch the bottom pill (JumpPill.tsx), useNeedsYou.ts, App.tsx, or the --acpmux-needs-you-mark token definition. That token is owned by #23877, and this PR only uses it.

What changed

• Glass, one layer: the list is the shared popup glass (Popover's .ui-popup.ui-glass) and paints no fill of its own. The title used to paint a second frosted band over the rows. It's now a plain heading, and the rows scroll inside the list under it.
• Header: the pin glyph is gone. "Needs you" is a muted 12px section heading, and the count is plain text instead of a grey badge.
• Rows: native list metrics. 13px text, a 16px mark with no grey disc, rows padded 6/8px with 6px radius. The name is medium weight instead of bold. The kind ("Waiting", "Approval") is plain muted text instead of a chip. The ask shows two lines at most (it was three), and one line in compact mode.
• Tools: Go to source (→) and Ask about this (?) are plain 20px icons with no border, sitting in the age's slot at the end of the row. They appear on row hover and on keyboard focus inside the row (:focus-within), and they stay in the Tab order (hidden with opacity only). The lone "Ask about this" text link under each row is gone. When the list opens, focus goes to the list itself, so no focus ring lands on the first row's arrow (that ring was the bordered square).
• Answers and side question: the answer rows keep the permission-card look. The side question loses its own tinted box, and both use slightly tighter metrics.

Tests

• New webviews/test/agent-pane-needs-you-popover.test.tsx checks:
  • the title has no pin glyph and the count has no chip chrome
  • the ask is clamped to 2 lines (1 in compact)
  • the kind has no chip chrome
  • both tools are named and have no border or fill
  • the tools are hidden at rest and shown on hover and :focus-within, never display:none or visibility:hidden
  • the list paints no fill or backdrop of its own
• The existing agent-pane-needs-you.test.tsx passes unchanged. .acpmux-needs-you-ask-about and .acpmux-needs-you-go keep their classes.
• scripts/web-lint.sh and prepush-gate.py both pass. The bun tests run on the fleet, since this Mac blocks local test runs. Fleet app compile-check at 397ea9e: passed (59 s).

Observed / Not run

• Observed: web-lint (oxfmt, oxlint, type check) and prepush-gate pass locally.
• Not run locally: bun tests (fleet run below), gallery renders (gallery-compare below).

Review (subagent): BLOCK at 397ea9e

Blocking: two of the six new tests in webviews/test/agent-pane-needs-you-popover.test.tsx fail at this head. I ran the test's own rules()/declared() helpers against needsYou.css in plain node; that is the same JS regex code bun runs.

1. "the tools hide at rest and show on row hover and on keyboard focus inside the row":
   • declared(".acpmux-needs-you-tools", "opacity") returns ["0", "1"], not ["0"]. The @media (hover: none) { .acpmux-needs-you-tools { opacity: 1; } } block also matches the ([^{}]+)\{([^{}]*)\} scan, because the regex restarts after the @media {.
   • rules(".acpmux-needs-you-item:is(:hover, :focus-within) .acpmux-needs-you-tools") returns []. rules() splits the selector list on every ,, including the one inside :is(:hover, :focus-within), so no part equals the whole selector. The toMatch(/opacity:\s*1/) check then fails on "".
   • Fix: split selector lists only on top-level commas, e.g. split(/,(?![^(]*\))/) as agent-pane-no-capsules.test.ts does. Then either skip rules inside @media or assert declared(...)[0] === "0".

The CSS and TSX look right. The defect is in the test's parser, but it is this PR's own red.

Checked and fine:

• Base UI 1.8.0 initialFocus={panelRef}: FloatingFocusManager calls resolveRef(ref) and focuses the element. A tabIndex={-1} div takes programmatic focus. An empty ref falls back to the first tabbable. outline: none on the panel means no ring. Tab from the panel reaches the first row's Ask about this, then Go to source.
• Scroll moved to .acpmux-needs-you-list (popup overflow: hidden, flex column with min-height: 0): scrollIntoView({block:"center"}) in the ask-about-this gallery play scrolls the list. The playRunner's trusted Playwright click moves the pointer over the row first, so :hover reveals the tools. opacity: 0 does not affect hit testing in any case, and the tools come after the age in the shared grid cell, so the button is the top hit at its centre.
• Existing agent-pane-needs-you.test.tsx selectors are all still rendered: .acpmux-needs-you-go (first row first), .acpmux-needs-you-ask-about, .acpmux-needs-you-total, .acpmux-needs-you-side-*, and the answer buttons.
• Ask about this is now in every non-compact row's meta, including rows with no answers, as before. Compact keeps Go to source and still has no ask-about.
• popup-one-hairline: no box-shadow on .acpmux-needs-you (the old [data-focused] inset ring is gone). popup-surface: no fill on .acpmux-needs-you, the panel or the head; the sticky frosted head is removed. no-capsules: tools are 20x20 at r5, the side field is 24 high at r6, and the count chip is gone. Tooltip rules: both icon-only buttons have title + aria-label, and aria-expanded stays on Ask about this.
• Requirements: 13px rows (--text-body), ask clamped to 2 lines (1 in compact), kind has no chip styling, no pin icon in the header, data-focused is now a wash of the mark with no ring. --acpmux-needs-you-mark is not redefined. The diff touches only NeedsYou.tsx, needsYou.css and the new test; JumpPill.tsx, useNeedsYou.ts and App.tsx are untouched. No new user-facing strings.

Non-blocking nits:

• The title row is 12px (--text-detail, muted). That is fine for a section heading, but it is the one place that is not 13px.
• font-family: -apple-system, ... on .acpmux-needs-you repeats what desktop.css and the popup already give. It is harmless and matches styles.css precedent.
• In Chromium, a pointer click on an answer leaves :focus-within on the row, so its tools stay shown until focus moves. WebKit does not focus buttons on click, so the app is unaffected.
• The age is hidden while the row is hovered or focused. This is by design, but the age is not available anywhere else then.

Review (subagent): SHIP at 61afa24

Reviewed the whole PR diff (merge-base 1877593..61afa24), focusing on 61afa24, which changes only the helpers in webviews/test/agent-pane-needs-you-popover.test.tsx.

The two failures from the last review are fixed

• topLevel removes comments and both @media blocks (prefers-reduced-motion, hover: none). After that, no @media is left, and every top-level rule after those blocks is still there.
• The selector split /,(?![^(]*\))/ now keeps .acpmux-needs-you-item:is(:hover, :focus-within) .acpmux-needs-you-tools in one piece. The old split(",") matched 0 rules for that selector; the new split matches 1 (opacity: 1). So this check failed before the fix and passes after it.

Every CSS assertion checked
I ran the test's rules/declared logic with plain node against needsYou.css at this head. All 29 checks pass:

• the total has no background or radius;
• the line clamp is 2, and 1 in compact mode;
• the kind has no background, padding, radius, shadow or border;
• go and ask-about have border: 0, background: none and no shadow;
• the tools sit at opacity 0 at rest and 1 on hover or focus-within, with no display: none and no visibility rule;
• go has exactly one focus-visible outline;
• .acpmux-needs-you, the panel and the head have no background or backdrop-filter.

Markup assertions, worked out from NeedsYou.tsx and Icon.tsx

• The header holds only the title and total spans, with no <Icon>, so it has no data-icon.
• The non-greedy acpmux-needs-you-meta match stops at that div's own </div>. Avatar/AgentMark, the spans and the two buttons inside it render only span, button and svg, with no inner div. Both aria-labels are inside it, and the English strings need no HTML escaping.
• In compact mode, acpmux-needs-you-go is still rendered and acpmux-needs-you-ask-about appears nowhere (the button is behind !compact, and the side form is behind asking).

Requirements
All met:

• glass: no fill or backdrop of its own; popup-surface.test.ts still pairs needsYou.css with the shared popup glass;
• 13px body text;
• the ask clamped to 2 lines;
• the kind as plain text, with no chip;
• the go arrow as a plain icon, shown on hover and on :focus-within, and always shown under hover: none;
• no pin icon;
• one-click answers, Go to source, Ask about this, compact mode, the empty state and the link-focused row are all kept;
• the list takes initial focus through Popover's existing initialFocus prop.

JumpPill.tsx, useNeedsYou.ts and App.tsx are not in the diff, and --acpmux-needs-you-mark is still the original definition at line 8. The selectors and markup that agent-pane-needs-you.test.tsx relies on (-go, -ask-about, -total, -side*, no -answer in compact mode) are still there.

Non-blocking nits

• The @media stripper handles only one level of nesting, and the comma split assumes no nested parentheses after a comma. That is enough for this sheet, but a future nested @supports/@media, or a selector like :is(a, :not(b)), would break it quietly.
• For items without answers, Ask about this used to be an always-visible labelled button. It is now an icon that shows only on hover or focus. That is what was asked for; I mention it only because it is the one place where the control is harder to find.

I did not run bun test; the CSS logic was checked with node, and the markup by reading the code.

Review (subagent): SHIP at 7c41404

• Delta 61afa24..7c41404 is formatting only: one file (webviews/test/agent-pane-needs-you-popover.test.tsx), the chained css.replace(...).replace(...) that builds topLevel joined onto one line. Same two regexes, same order, same arguments; no other test, assertion or source line changed. Behaviour is identical to the head the prior SHIP covered.
• Re-skimmed the full PR diff against merge-base 1877593 with origin/feat-cmux-next (NeedsYou.tsx, needsYou.css, the new test). No new correctness issues:
  • initialFocus={panelRef} matches Popover's initialFocus?: RefObject<HTMLElement | null> prop. NeedsYouPanel has no other callers in webviews/src, so the optional panelRef and tabIndex={-1} affect only this popover.
  • The tools are hidden by opacity alone, so they stay in the Tab order. :focus-within, an open Ask about (:has([aria-expanded="true"])) and @media (hover: none) all show them. Compact mode drops Ask about and keeps Go to source.
  • Moving the scroll from the popover to the list (overflow: hidden on the container, min-height: 0 and overflow-y: auto on the list) is consistent, and the header no longer needs to be sticky.
  • The test's CSS assertions match the sheet (for example, background: none and border: 0 on the tool rule, and line-clamp 2 and 1).
• Not run here: bun test or builds (read-only review). CI's fast gate covers the format check.

[teamleaderleo]

cmux-next guards / nightly-guards / workflow-guard-tests / release-notary is red on 12 of 18 fresh feat-cmux-next PR heads in the last 2:00:00, so it is most likely a base red, not this PR's. The base-reds lane has it; a base merge picks up the fix once it lands.

Review (sonnet, correctness first): SHIP at 804b853

A different-model review (Sonnet; the lane runs on Opus), read-only on the head, using the diff 804b853f^2..804b853f. The fleet app compile passed at this head (job d2a894f0877860773bf173b8, 46 s).

• Behaviour holds:
  • Ask about this is now a named icon <button> in the tools slot. It is reachable by Tab, it still toggles the side question, and it keeps aria-expanded.
  • Compact mode drops the same things it did before: the answers, Ask about this and the detail. Go to source stays, and the ask is clamped to one line.
  • The side question still renders when an ask has no answers.
  • Popover's initialFocus accepts RefObject<HTMLElement | null>, so the panel ref fits.
• The CSS matches the spec:
  • The pin is gone.
  • The count is plain tabular text and the kind is a word, with no chip fill.
  • The ask is clamped to two lines.
  • The tools hide by opacity only. They show on :hover and :focus-within, and always on (hover: none), and have focus-visible outlines.
  • The list paints no fill, blur or shadow of its own.
  • --acpmux-needs-you-mark is read, never defined.
  • No new capsule radii.
• Tests: the new popover test checks the shipped CSS and markup, and every import is used. The existing needs-you, app-store and mark-color tests use only selectors that still exist.

The reds at this head are not the PR's:

• gallery health: composer#steer-read-hover, which this PR doesn't touch;
• react-apps-check (4): .acpmux-drop-mark capsule, the Jump to latest glide and the SSH chat test, which fail the same way on cmux NEXT: remove the Needs your input pill over the transcript #24108's head;
• cmux-next checks: Swift convention errors in AttentionHighlightLook.swift and AgentPaneNeedsYouSetting.swift, both outside this PR;
• release-notary and Guard status.

Nits, not blocking: Ask about this has no aria-controls. The age isn't announced while the tools have focus.
