The board opens an editable draft; nothing is saved until you confirm it. Sign-in and workspace permissions apply, and Demo boards remain ephemeral.
Project context
Fictional internal status team Harbor updates operational incident cards. Build a local event log and SSE adapter; incidents and service names are invented.
Setup prerequisites
- Create synthetic incident revisions and a local append-only event stub.
- Provide controllable disconnect, replay and retention fixtures.
Preceding work
Complete these dependencies, or supply their agreed outputs before taking this ticket.
- CLIVE-101 · Give live incident events stable opaque identifiers
- CLIVE-102 · Render incident status text independently of severity color
- CLIVE-103 · Apply live incident updates only to newer revisions
- CLIVE-104 · Resume incident streams from the last applied event
- CLIVE-105 · Return a reset contract when incident replay history expired
- CLIVE-106 · Join incident snapshots and streams at one watermark
- CLIVE-108 · Bound each incident subscriber buffer
- CLIVE-109 · Show incident-board freshness independently from incident status
Acceptance criteria
- Includes reset reason and cursor category
- Omits descriptions and author names
- Malformed IDs are bounded
Implementation constraints
- Correlation identifiers cannot carry user text.
Verification to include
- Capture successful resume
- Reject secret-like malformed cursor
Deliverables
- Recovery diagnostics and exclusion checks
Rollout and recovery
Disable stream logging if payload fields appear.
Value of the work
For the engineer: Practice event projection, replay and freshness communication.
For the team: Inspect whether dashboards remain trustworthy through network interruptions.
Evidence boundaries
Outcome Evidence: Tests, patches, and runbooks are requested deliverables. They become Outcome Evidence only through a qualified Mission and immutable Evidence IDs.
Ownership Evidence: Independent adaptation must be observed under a declared verification policy and cite immutable Evidence IDs. Completing a planning ticket establishes no Ownership Evidence.
