Build Log

Alloy — The Rest of the Screens

July 19, 2026

Built the real Home page and all 6 remaining Forge Arc phase pages (Charge through Bank), plus Workpieces, Forge Arcs, Mechanism Rack, Signals, Evidence Tray, and Settings — 14 real routes total, all reading genuine ForgeKit OS data with the same honest-substitute convention the prior two Alloy sessions established.

AlloyForgeKit OSUI

real routes built (1 real Home page, 6 arc-phase pages, 7 utility screens)

new components + 3 new lib/*.ts data modules

real gates surfaced on Mechanism Rack, mirrored from gate-registry.mjs with Tier 1/3 enforcement split

TypeScript errors and 0 failed routes in the final production build (next build)

Timeline

Start

Oriented against both prior Alloy session retros and every reference mockup

Confirmed the honest-substitute convention and identified real data sources per screen before writing code

+30m

Moved Orient off / to /orient, built the real Home page

System State, Active Workpiece (bracket_asset.png), Forge Arc Status, Recent Workpieces/Arcs, Open Items, Signal Summary — all real fields

+1h

Built shared ArcPhaseShell + 6 arc-phase pages

Charge/Ignite/Forge/Quench/Temper/Bank — mid-build, Zeb asked for these explicitly; reused Orient's real panels instead of fabricating 6 unique layouts. Added anvil_asset.png to the Anvil panel.

+2h

Built Workpieces, Forge Arcs (real Arc Trace classifier data), Mechanism Rack (real gate registry mirror), Signals (real spin_triage), Evidence Tray (real reuse/patterns), Settings

Each screen's lib/*.ts module documents exactly what's real vs. what the reference mockup fabricated

+2.5h

Live layout iteration with Zeb watching in-browser

Removed arc-phase links from Sidebar (workpiece-scoped, not global nav), turned panel title labels blue to match the mockups, reworked Active Workpiece card 3 times to match prototype proportions and add Resume Arc, enlarged anvil artwork, restructured Home's second row into one 4-column strip and clarified the aggregate Open Items count

End

Full production build passed clean (0 TS errors, 17/17 routes compiled)

Retro written

What shipped

products/alloy/app/page.tsx — real Home page (System State, Active Workpiece with bracket_asset.png + Resume Arc, Forge Arc Status, Recent Workpieces/Arcs, Open Items, Signal Summary)

products/alloy/app/orient/page.tsx — the former homepage, moved to its correct route

products/alloy/components/ArcPhaseShell.tsx + app/{charge,ignite,forge,quench,temper,bank}/page.tsx — 6 new arc-phase pages sharing one real, honestly-sourced layout

products/alloy/app/workpieces/ + components/WorkpiecesTable.tsx — real workpiece_id grouping index

products/alloy/app/forge-arcs/ + components/ForgeArcsExplorer.tsx — real session list + real Arc Trace classifier breakdown where classified

products/alloy/app/mechanism-rack/ + lib/gates.ts + components/MechanismRackTable.tsx — 23 real gates mirrored from gate-registry.mjs, real Tier 1/3 enforcement split, real gate_checks[] usage counts

products/alloy/app/signals/ + lib/signals.ts + components/SignalsTable.tsx — real spins[] aggregated across every session, real category breakdown

products/alloy/app/evidence-tray/ + lib/evidence.ts + components/EvidenceTrayTable.tsx — real reuse{}/patterns[] Harvest fields aggregated across every session

products/alloy/app/settings/ + components/SettingsPanel.tsx — honest static config view (no persistence layer exists to make it editable)

products/alloy/components/{SystemStatePanel,ActiveWorkpiecePanel,ForgeArcStatusPanel,RecentWorkpiecesPanel,SignalSummaryPanel}.tsx — new Home page panels

products/alloy/components/Sidebar.tsx — removed the arc-phase nav block (workpiece-scoped, not global) per Zeb's live correction

products/alloy/components/MechanismDock.tsx — AnvilPanel now shows the real anvil_asset.png artwork, enlarged per Zeb's feedback

Panel title labels turned blue (text-alloy-cold-flame-bright) across ~16 components to match the reference mockups, per Zeb's live correction

products/alloy/components/OpenObligationsPanel.tsx — added scopeLabel prop so the same component reads correctly whether it's showing one session's items or the full 607-item aggregate
