Changes

  • Distinguish incomplete provider responses from successful runs.
  • Preserve validated changes when a continuation fails, without replaying edits.
  • Guard checkpoint restores against project changes and retain recovery copies until final save confirmation.
  • Migrate checkpoint storage without breaking already-open older tabs.

Verification

  • Full test suite: 510 passed, 2 skipped.
  • Type checking and lint passed.
  • Production build and browser startup passed.
  • Authenticated end-to-end recovery test deferred because passkeys do not work in the local test browser.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added validated checkpoints during Builder Assistant workflows, enabling safer recovery after successful validation.
    • Checkpoint recovery now verifies that the saved state matches the current execution before restoring it.
    • Improved handling of completed, interrupted, continued, and failed AI runs.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Prevented incomplete or failed AI responses from being treated as successful project results.
    • Improved cancellation and error handling during validation and streaming.
    • Added migration support for existing saved checkpoints.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds validated checkpoint persistence and recovery, migrates checkpoint storage to version 2, and centralizes Builder AI run outcome handling. Streaming paths now handle incomplete runs, aborts, validation failures, and continuations consistently.

Changes

Builder AI reliability

Layer / File(s) Summary
Checkpoint storage and migration
src/utils/builder-ai-checkpoints.client.ts, tests/builder-ai-checkpoints.test.ts
Checkpoint metadata now supports validated checkpoints and expected executions. Version 1 localStorage and IndexedDB data migrates to version 2. Loading filters checkpoints by execution and ownership.
Validated checkpoint lifecycle
src/components/builder/BuilderAssistant.client.tsx
The assistant creates validated checkpoints after successful validation, verifies execution stability before restore, promotes matching checkpoints after errors, and removes them on terminal paths. The transcript displays validated checkpoint state.
Run outcome and stream handling
src/utils/builder-ai-run-outcome.ts, src/utils/builder-ai-stream.client.ts, src/utils/builder-ai.ts, tests/builder-ai-run-outcome.test.ts, tests/builder-ai-stream.test.ts
Run outcome classification now handles completion, continuation, interruption, and failure through one helper. Streaming rejects incomplete, aborted, and missing-validation runs without emitting successful results.

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 89ad0

Checkpoint recovery can fail for users with older tabs or during heartbeat failures, potentially making validated Builder work unavailable. These paths should be fixed before merge.

Settle the validated checkpoint before returning on heartbeat failure.

Both heartbeatFailure branches return before these cleanup calls. If validation succeeded before the lease failed, validatedCheckpoint remains persisted but is not assigned to rollbackCheckpointRef. The user cannot restore the validated changes in the current session.

After rollback restores checkpointExecution, promote the validated checkpoint as the non-abort failure path does. If promotion is not valid, remove the checkpoint before returning.

Continue reconciling checkpoints written by older tabs.

The migration reads the version 1 index only once. An already-open version 1 tab can add a checkpoint after that read. After Line 563 writes the version 2 key, Line 538 prevents all later imports from version 1 storage.

The new application then cannot recover that checkpoint when the older tab reloads. Reconcile both indexes during initialization until version 1 support is retired. Deduplicate checkpoints by scope and id, and copy any missing execution records before writing the merged version 2 index.

Add a test that creates a version 1 checkpoint after the first version 2 migration and then initializes a new application tab.
