- Mode: Feature
- Branch: codex/20261012-wechat-channel-cards-a76f390d-wechat-channel-cards
- Worktree: /Users/chillishark/Makelore 麦洛/.codex-worktrees/makelore/20261012-wechat-channel-cards-a76f390d
- Base commit: ad1d2f261d5810ec79a5e88da58209673a1e7b8d
- Owner: codex
- Status: Ready for Integration

## Scope

- Simplify the WeChat channel page into account cards and an explicit choose-Agent → scan → confirmed binding flow. Remove channel chat/activity panels from this configuration surface. Combine all prior approved Agent refinements in the current temporary application.

## Intent And Constraints

- Product-language communication; user approved implementation and the combined temporary-app update. Preserve one current Agent target per account, many accounts per Agent, account isolation, Main-owned authentication/operations, creator billing and cloud history. No real WeChat binding/model calls for verification. Cloud changes remain with the user's teammate; do not invent physical-WeChat identity or duplicate detection absent from the current contract.
- Latest base includes prior simplified creation/configuration, cards-first entry, chat polish and manual-only sidebar. Preserve all of them. Keep other local tasks/read-only source, installed app and user profile intact; runtime replacement is restricted to the known temporary app/artifacts. User's new update instruction supersedes earlier code-only constraints.

## Project Context Loaded

Task context:
- ID: 20261012-wechat-channel-cards-a76f390d; Feature; owner codex.
- Worktree: /Users/chillishark/Makelore 麦洛/.codex-worktrees/makelore/20261012-wechat-channel-cards-a76f390d.
- Branch: codex/20261012-wechat-channel-cards-a76f390d-wechat-channel-cards.
- Base commit: ad1d2f261d5810ec79a5e88da58209673a1e7b8d.
- Bundled check/start/status passed, owner/reservation and HEAD match. 38 peers read only: 37 concrete scopes, one old undefined child-language record; no blocking conflict. Prior Agent changes form a single ancestry chain.

Read:
- AGENTS.md, startup order/memory index/planning gate, own record, positioning and integrated current state, decision index, system overview/community collaboration.
- Business rules/success criteria, evidence/reflection/commitments indexes and personal-cloud-agents ADR; each peer's scope, constraints and promotion candidates.
- ChannelAccounts, typed channel contract, current channel checks, CloudAvatar/QR/dialog components; read-only Yuxi channel/identity/lifecycle contract. Existing temporary app runtime evidence and current CUA accessibility state.
- Design skill database search; adapt progressive disclosure, contrast/focus and soft cards to existing cream/pastel/orange style, without new fonts/themes.

Relevant understanding:
- Project is an AI creation client for students/creators, excludes courses; Main/WS/Yuxi retain auth, billing, resources and run authority.
- User confirms one WeChat → one current Agent, many WeChats → one Agent, no WeChat transcript in channels. Existing scalar account target supports this relationship; only own published/enabled Agents are eligible.
- Old integrated UI descriptions include channel history tabs; this user-approved configuration simplification takes precedence. Feature task proposes canonical updates only.
- Pause preserves login/target but stops ongoing channel work; switch/clear stops old work and delivery. Clear target disables while retaining login. Disconnect also signs out but retains target/history. Present unlink as cancelling the Agent association, with an explicit confirmation; do not conflate it with logout.
- The current client/cloud projection has no verified real WeChat identity or repeated-scan lookup. Preserve recovery/conflict/error feedback and reuse existing account records for management; true duplicate-scan enforcement requires the cloud owner, not guessed names.
- Runtime currently uses Entry Trial PID 63739 / Host 62867, with formal app separately running. CUA confirms channels open and saved settings. Only renderer changed since that live source; compare final Main artifact hashes before choosing a renderer-only refresh that preserves login. Otherwise build/probe an isolated shell with rollback and manual login.
- Files: ChannelAccounts, focused channel tests, README, own task record, task-specific ignored runtime artifacts. No canonical or sibling source writes.
- Gates passed; no unresolved product conflict. Real WeChat and paid model behavior remain outside fixture evidence.

Gate result:
- Passed.

## Plan

1. Implement pastel account cards and accessible add/manage dialogs with explicit confirmed connection and activation, safe switch/pause/unlink, loading/empty/error/recovery states. Remove channel transcript/activity UI from the configuration page.
2. Verify cardinality, existing/new account flows, QR completion, failures/recovery, keyboard/compact layouts and inherited Agent pages; run typecheck/scoped lint/build/Electron checks.
3. Save the reviewed result, bind a verified runtime update, preserve live login when identical Main artifacts allow it, and display the updated channel page. Record actual runtime evidence and limits.

## Outcome

- Implemented account cards, optional account remark, choose-Agent → scan → explicit activation and binding receipt. Management supports target replacement, pause/resume, confirmed unlink and separate disconnect. One scalar target per account and multiple accounts per Agent are retained. Channel configuration no longer renders or requests chat/activity panels.
- Uses authoritative account refresh after QR confirmation and before activation; checks current target/revision/blockers and activation receipts. Failed route keeps the created account identity; pending recovery blocks conflicting actions; successful mutations followed by read failures are not replayed. Initial loading/read failure is distinct from an empty account list.
- README and focused checks match the final page. Current ancestry includes all earlier approved Agent creation/configuration, direct-use, cards-first entry, chat polish and manual-only sidebar/icon changes. Combined temporary application updated and visually verified; no real cloud mutations performed by this task.

## Verification

- Focused channel unit checks: 27 passed, including no false completion/success when enable returns enabled=false; creation/route failure identity; connection confirmation, recovery, stale target/revision, switch/pause/unlink/disconnect and no history requests.
- Final production build passed. Production Electron fixture: both channel binding and combined Agent scenarios passed (2 tests, 10.3s). Final screenshots reviewed: readable pastel cards, compact management dialog and correctly placed Select arrow; inherited creation/configuration/sidebar/chat checks remain passing. Fixtures use isolated synthetic data, not the real user's cloud state.
- Final post-review typecheck, scoped ESLint and whitespace checks passed. Independent final code review found no remaining necessary fixes.
- Live temporary app inspected through CUA before update: logged in, saved Agent settings, empty message composer; returned to cards without changes. Formal installed app remains separate and untouched.
- Runtime preparation/activation/confirmation passed using task stage `/Users/chillishark/Makelore 麦洛/.trial-runtime/wechat-channel-cards-20261012-a76f390d/renderer-build-manifest.json`. Clean implementation/source commit `d823ddb8fa06657ae71f3f618769791a6aa3ad21`; 133 renderer files copied and hashed. Main/preload/utility bytes and electron/shared trees matched exactly. Atomic mixed directory/symlink swap preserved original dist for rollback. Current pointer records renderer and bootstrap provenance separately; app.getAppPath remains the prior bootstrap. Main PID 63739 and Host port 62867 preserved; profile/credentials never read or copied.
- Native View → Force Reload loaded the new renderer. CUA accessibility and actual screenshot show authenticated alice, new sidebar icons, “连接到微信”, real account cards and the new “管理微信绑定” dialog (11 → 整理小帮手, needs-scan state, disabled resume, unlink/disconnect). No channel chat/activity surface. Left the new binding-management view visible, with no edits, QR creation or cloud actions. Runtime state `refreshed-and-visually-verified`, observed view `channel-binding-cards-and-management`. Script does not infer login; retention is established by this visible application observation. Previous bootstrap login flags are historical evidence, not current login authority.

## Follow-ups

- Cloud owner must confirm real WeChat identity/repeated-scan behavior. Current account DTO does not expose a verified identity, so this client never guesses duplicates from account remarks. Real WeChat/paid model behavior is not established by fixture checks.
- Final handoff documentation is a docs-only commit after binding the verified implementation. It does not change the renderer payload. Retain feature branch/worktree for serialized integration; no main merge performed.

## Promotion Candidates

- Target: integrated current state and personal-cloud-agents channel UI description. Proposal: channel configuration consists of account cards and choose-Agent/scan/explicit-enable management; no chat/activity surface. Evidence: user's explicit approval, focused fixture checks and reviewed screenshots. Future impact: prevents reintroducing conversation management into configuration. Semantic conflict: older integrated descriptions include channel history tabs; this approved UI simplification supersedes that presentation while preserving cloud history/billing. Human confirmation: already obtained for product direction; canonical promotion still requires a separate integration task.
- Target: channel contract/commitments. Proposal: confirm stable real-WeChat identity and repeated-scan resolution with the cloud owner before claiming physical-account uniqueness. Evidence: current scalar target gives one Agent per account record but DTO lacks physical identity. Future impact: prevents misleading duplicate detection. Human confirmation/cloud contract required; no client-side guessed identity.
