ui: follow up the sandbox list's rolling-deploy rule: pauses, notices and the prefix section - #1404
Follows up the review of #1397, which made the console's sandbox list (ui/) keep its rows through a rolling deploy and stop, with a reload notice, only once older-format answers had gone on long enough. This fixes one medium and three low findings from that review, and replaces the stop rule's time window with a plain count.
The list stops on a count of bare arrays only. The list stops after STOP_AFTER_MISMATCHES (20) bare arrays in a row answering paged requests, the list's or the prefix search's (ListSelection.noteAnswer in ui/src/lib/sandbox-list.ts). The rows stay on screen under the reload notice, as before. A page answer resets the count. Failed requests, such as errors and 503s, and answers a newer request superseded neither count nor reset it. Twenty in a row means almost every replica is old: while half the replicas are old, a run of answers reaches twenty about once in a million (2^-20). A failed refresh is retried about once a second, so a real downgrade stops the list in about 20 s. Earlier heads of this PR also required a minute of such answers and started the run over after a gap. Each round of review then found a new timing case: a hidden tab, a sleeping laptop, a request in flight across a pause, and two tabs waiting on each other's requests through the shared refresh lock. Those rules are gone: STOP_AFTER_MISMATCH_MS, the send-gap rule (MISMATCH_RUN_GAP_MS) and the injected clock.
The older-format notice follows the main list's last outcome. The notice above the table ("The API answered in an older format; retrying") was shown while a mismatch count shared by the list and the prefix search was above zero, so either one could clear or show it for the other. Now a bare array answering the list shows it, and any other outcome of a list load clears it (showsOlderFormat). After a bare array, a failed request now replaces the notice with the normal refresh-error display. Before, the notice stayed and the error went only to the console. The prefix search's bare arrays are still reported in its own section, and they still count toward stopping the list.
The prefix section stays when older matches exist. On a paging server, a hex-only search also lists the matches beyond the page in a "More matches beyond this page" section. That section was left out whenever an answer had nothing to add to the main table, including when every match the server returned was on screen but the server had older ones. That hid the hint to type more of the name or ID. When the answer says there are more, the section now stays, with this line in place of its table: "All of the first N matches are on this page; type more of the name or ID to find older ones." If the node filter hid some of those matches, the line says so instead. N is the number of rows the answer returned, not the requested page size: the API can end a page early with more to follow when its byte budget runs out. "Showing the first N" uses the same number.
The module comment is narrowed. It said every mismatch keeps the rows on screen. That holds only for a refresh of the page on screen. A bare array answering Next, Previous or a filter change fails that load and clears the table with an error, as any failed load of a new scope does on main. That behavior is unchanged.
Before, with the prefix answer covering only the 25 rows on screen and more on the server:

Validation
At this head, in ui/: npm ci, npm test (219 tests pass), npx tsc --noEmit -p . and npm run build all pass.
Unit tests in ui/src/lib/sandbox-list.test.mjs:
"a ten-minute pause after a bare array, as in a hidden tab, does not change the count" runs the review's probe: one bare array, ten minutes on mocked timers, then 19 more. The list stops on the twentieth.
"a page between bare arrays starts the count over": 19 bare arrays, a page, and 19 more don't stop the list. The next one does.
"failed and superseded requests between bare arrays neither count nor start over": 10 bare arrays, then five 503s, then a superseded page and a superseded bare array. The count stays at 10, and the list stops on the twentieth bare array.
"ten minutes of interleaved old and new answers, half of them old, never stop a paged list": three fixed patterns, including 19 bare arrays then a page, and three seeded random sources (mulberry32), simulated at one retry a second after a bare array and ten seconds after a page.
"a paged list stops on the twentieth bare array in a row", and "a bare array answering the prefix search counts toward stopping the list", which now counts to twenty with no clock.
"the older-format notice follows the list's last outcome": a bare array shows the notice, a 503 clears it, another bare array shows it, and a page clears it.
The tests that only exercised the minute window or the send gap are removed.
Fail-before: this test file was run against the previous head's sandbox-list.ts (d4179a5) with a stub showsOlderFormat export added. Of 44 tests, 5 fail: the twentieth-bare-array, ten-minute-pause, page-resets, failed-and-superseded and prefix tests. The previous rule also needed a minute of answers.
In a browser, the built ui/ at this head was served with next start and driven with Playwright 1.64.1. Every API request was answered by route interception with synthetic data. The test hid the tab by overriding document.hidden and advanced ten minutes with Playwright's clock.
A page, one bare array, ten minutes hidden, then bare arrays. The list sent nothing while hidden. After the 19th bare array it still showed its 5 rows under the older-format notice. On the 20th it stopped with the reload notice, kept its 5 rows and sent nothing afterwards.
A page, ten minutes hidden, 19 bare arrays, five 503s, then one more bare array. During the 503s the older-format notice was gone and the list had not stopped. The next bare array, the 20th, stopped it with its 5 rows kept.
The prefix-section screenshots were not retaken. Their answer returns all 25 rows of the page size, so the line they show is unchanged.
Not validated: Kind was not run, and two tabs sharing the refresh lock were not driven in a browser. The count rule doesn't depend on timing, so a lock wait changes nothing. Next, Previous and filter changes during a rollout were not driven either, since their behavior is unchanged. The text for a prefix answer cut short by the byte budget is not covered by a test, because it is rendered in page.tsx.
Severity and risk
Severity: medium for the stop rule. After a hidden tab or a sleep during a rollout, an open list could stop with the reload notice within seconds of coming back, even though replicas that page were still answering. With two tabs open and slow requests, it might never stop. The other three are low: a notice or a hint that was shown wrongly or not at all. No data is changed.
Risk: the list stops after 20 bare arrays in a row answering paged requests. While half the replicas are old, a run reaches that about once in a million. If nearly every replica is old but not quite every one, a stray page resets the count and the list keeps retrying with its rows on screen under the older-format notice. After a bare array, a failed request now clears that notice and is reported as any failed refresh is: in the console for a background refresh, and as an error message for Refresh. A prefix search's answer no longer clears or shows the notice. To roll back, revert these commits.
Rollout
The change is about how the console behaves while old and new API versions run together. It needs no ordering with the API.
AI assistance: Claude Code drafted the code, the tests and this description.
The sandbox list stops, with the reload notice, once bare arrays alone
have answered its paged requests for a minute, at least twenty times.
The minute was measured from the first bare array of a run, and a pause
did not move it: after one bare array, a hidden tab for ten minutes, and
19 more bare arrays a second apart, the list stopped 19 s after the tab
came back.
A bare array whose request was sent more than MISMATCH_RUN_GAP_MS (10 s)
after the previous one answered now starts the run over. A hidden tab, a
sleeping laptop or a run of failed requests delays sending, so it starts
the run over. The gap is measured to the sending, not the answer, so slow
requests keep the run going and a real downgrade still stops the list.
ListSelection reads a monotonic clock (performance.now), injected in
tests, so a step of the system clock cannot move the window either. The
prefix search reads the same clock when it sends its request.
The pause test now runs the review's probe and checks that the list does
not stop until a full minute of bare arrays after the pause; a second
test does the same after a run of failed requests, and the count test
uses slow requests. The comments that called the window a minute of
retries now say how a pause is handled, and the module comment no longer
says that every mismatch keeps the rows on screen: one answering Next,
Previous or a filter change fails that load and clears the table, as any
failed load of a new scope does.
The notice above the table ("The API answered in an older format;
retrying") was shown while the shared mismatch count was above zero.
The list and the prefix search both set it from that count, so a page
answering the prefix search cleared the notice for a list whose own
refresh had just failed, and a bare array answering the prefix search
showed it over a list that was up to date.
The notice now follows the main list's last answer: a bare array
answering it shows the notice, a load it shows clears it, and a failed
request leaves it as it was. The prefix search reports its own bare
arrays in its section, as before, and still counts them toward stopping
the list.
On a paging server, a search of hex digits and dashes is also sent as a
prefix, and the matches beyond the page on screen are listed after it.
The section was left out whenever an answer left nothing to show beyond
the main table. When every one of the first page-size matches was
already on screen but the server had older ones, the section went away
with its hint to type more of the name or ID, and nothing said that
more matches existed.
When the answer says there are more, the section stays, with a line in
place of its table: all of the first N matches are on this page; type
more of the name or ID to find older ones. When the node filter hid
some of them, the line says so instead. The section is still left out
when an answer leaves nothing to show and there are no older matches.
The list stopped once bare arrays alone had answered its paged requests
for a minute, at least twenty times, and a bare array sent more than
10 s after the previous one answered started the run over. Each round of
review found another case where time moved without retries: a request in
flight while the tab was hidden or the machine slept still carried the
pause into the window, and two visible tabs sharing the refresh lock made
each wait out the other's request, so with requests of 10 s or more
neither run ever reached the minute.
Stop on the count only: STOP_AFTER_MISMATCHES (20) bare arrays in a row
answering paged requests, the list's or the prefix search's. A page
resets the count; failed and superseded requests neither count nor reset
it. STOP_AFTER_MISMATCH_MS, MISMATCH_RUN_GAP_MS and the injected clock
are gone. While half the replicas are old, a run reaches twenty about
once in a million (2^-20); at about one retry a second, a real downgrade
stops the list in about 20 s.
After a bare array, a run of failed requests kept "The API answered in an
older format; retrying" above the table while each error went only to
the console. The notice now shows the list's last outcome: a bare array
answering a paged request shows it, and any other outcome clears it, so
a failed request is reported as any failed refresh is. The rule is
showsOlderFormat in ui/src/lib/sandbox-list.ts, which the page calls.
The prefix section's "All of the first N matches are on this page", its
node-filter variant and "Showing the first N" used the requested page
size. The API can return fewer rows with more to follow when its byte
budget ends a page early, so N is now the number of rows the answer
returned, with a singular for one.
The sandbox list now stops after 20 consecutive bare-array answers, without a time threshold. Paged answers reset the count; failed or superseded requests do not change it. The page derives older-format state from load results, and prefix-search answers do not set that state. Supplemental search displays the server’s match count and identifies matches already on the page or excluded by the node filter.

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to 43a3c
During a rolling upgrade, repeated older-format responses can stop the sandbox list and require a reload. The changed notice behavior also needs page-level regression coverage.
Security architecture risk: Minimal · up to 43a3c
The changes affect when the sandbox list pauses and how compatibility notices and search results appear. They do not expand API access, permissions, or deployment authority. The reviewed transitions preserve request ownership and prevent superseded responses from publishing rows.
Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.
Security review details
Security Blast Radius
inferred — The changed response handling affects the current browser view’s availability and presentation. A source able to supply accepted older-format answers can now trigger the stop without the former minimum duration, but the changed path provides no additional tenant, service, data-store, or infrastructure authority.
Trust Boundaries and Controls
observed — The refresh path retains its scope capture and applicability checks. Older-format classification changes notice presentation, not identity or authorization. These client checks do not establish the correctness of server-side tenant filtering, which was outside this inspection.
Resilience and Maintainability Implications
observed — A prefix-triggered terminal stop cannot be undone by a later successful in-flight list response: subsequent response processing encounters the stopped state before publishing rows. Failure paths likewise do not restore continuation authority.

Explanation
The title uses the "ui:" area prefix followed by a lowercase summary, which matches the required format. It describes the main change, a follow-up to the sandbox list's rolling-deploy rule that covers pauses, notices, and the prefix section. The title is somewhat long and lists three aspects, but it stays related to the changeset.
Full details: Weakened Safeguards Are Justified
Explanation
No weakened repository safeguard is introduced. The diff changes only three UI source/test files and does not remove CI, lint, test, or allowlist checks. The removed time-window test logic is replaced by count-based tests in ui/src/lib/sandbox-list.test.mjs; the description specifically justifies removing the time window, send-gap rule, and test clock.

Summary
Follows up the review of #1397, which made the console's sandbox list (
ui/) keep its rows through a rolling deploy and stop, with a reload notice, only once older-format answers had gone on long enough. This fixes one medium and three low findings from that review, and replaces the stop rule's time window with a plain count.STOP_AFTER_MISMATCHES(20) bare arrays in a row answering paged requests, the list's or the prefix search's (ListSelection.noteAnswerinui/src/lib/sandbox-list.ts). The rows stay on screen under the reload notice, as before. A page answer resets the count. Failed requests, such as errors and 503s, and answers a newer request superseded neither count nor reset it. Twenty in a row means almost every replica is old: while half the replicas are old, a run of answers reaches twenty about once in a million (2^-20).
