PLAN-2857 U2. Absorbs the relation half of TASK-2216.
Before this, `relation` fell through `fields/FieldEditor.svelte`'s `{:else}`
text fallback: an editable free-text input in edit mode, and `{value ?? '—'}`
in display mode. Since `internal/items/validate.go:275` accepts ANY string for
a relation, that combination did not merely fail to edit — it SAVED. Typing
"red" into a relation field stored the literal string and showed no error, and
the display arm rendered a raw UUID when the value happened to be one. So U2 is
closing a silent corruption hole, not adding an editor to a read-only field.
**Three render states, not two.** A value that resolves to nothing and a value
whose target was deleted are different facts about the item, and the third is
the COMMON case on existing data — arbitrary strings are what the old fallback
has been writing. All three resolve locally: `localIndex` holds soft-deleted
rows alongside live ones (`getByCollection` filters them out rather than
dropping them), so a dangling target is a row carrying `deleted_at`. No fetch,
no loading state. The invariant across every state, asserted in every leg: a
raw item ID never reaches the user.
**The branch is gated on `wsSlug` AND `field.collection`, and the second call
site sits on the far side of that gate deliberately.** `CopyItemDialog` builds
its `FieldDef` from a preflight row whose shape carries no `collection`
(`ItemCopyPreflightNeedsValue`), and it copies ACROSS workspaces — so an
unscoped picker there would offer SOURCE-workspace items as the value for a
DESTINATION-workspace field, and look authoritative doing it. A free-text box
at least looks like something the user owns. Read-only is the honest state
until TASK-2869 (U2b) extends the preflight contract; U1 makes the garbage
write a 400 in the meantime.
That gate is a fact about the CALLERS, invisible from the component's own
render tests, so both sides are asserted at the call sites
(`fieldEditorRelationCallers.test.ts`) — including that `toFieldDef` still
builds from a shape with no `collection`, which fails loudly when U2b lands
rather than letting the gate drift.
Pin first, per team CONVE-29: the test file was written and run BEFORE the
branch existed — 4 failed / 2 passed, the two passers being the gate legs,
which pass vacuously while no picker exists anywhere. That is why they ship
with a control leg that mounts one.
One pin leg was STRENGTHENED rather than relaxed when it failed against the new
code: leg (a) asserted "some anchor exists" and failed because the test passed
no `username`, which is what builds the href. The fix was to give it one and
assert the exact href, plus a new leg (a2) for the resolved-but-no-route case —
where the chip degrades to a non-link and must still name the item rather than
degrade to the raw value, which is precisely what the old arm did.
Gates: `npm run check` 1092 files 0 errors, 6 pre-existing warnings; full web
suite 122 files / 2048 tests green.
Pad Web UI
SvelteKit 2 + Svelte 5 frontend for Pad, compiled to static files and embedded into the Go binary.
Development
npm install
npm run dev # Dev server at localhost:5173 (proxies API to localhost:7777)
npm run build # Production build to build/
npm run check # Type checking with svelte-check
When developing, run the Go backend separately with make dev from the project root.
Building for Production
Do not build in isolation. Always use make build from the project root — this builds the web frontend, then compiles the Go binary with the build output embedded via //go:embed.
