xarmian 4ac7f16084 feat(web): gapped sort keys, so a reorder is one write (TASK-3525) (#1975)
* feat(web): gapped sort keys, so a reorder is one write (TASK-3525)

Lane order was dense integers, so a drop between two cards renumbered one
side of the lane: up to ~510 rows (and ~510 'reordered' activity rows) for
a middle drop in a 1,020-card lane. The planner now keeps the longest run
of cards already in order and writes every other card into the gap between
its kept neighbours: 1,024 past it at an end, spread evenly in the middle.
Moving one card in a gapped lane is one write. With no room (a dense lane
from before this, a never-dragged lane of 0s, or a gap closed by repeated
drops in one spot) it shifts the shorter side as before, but 1,024 apart,
so the next drops are single writes again. A plan leaving +/-2^30 re-spaces
the lane around 0.

Client only: the server stores whatever integers it is sent, so no schema,
API or MCP change, and API writers keep working with any values that sort.
The roles board shares the planner and gets the same behaviour.

Also: the timeline says "moved up/down" instead of raw sort values; the
share page's comment about its order is corrected (it is ListItems' default,
not sort_order); CLAUDE.md says a copy does not carry sort_order; the CLI's
--sort-order help says it is a key, not a position.

* fix(web): a reorder writes the card the user moved when that is enough (TASK-3525)

A one-write plan can often write either card of a swap, and each written
card gets the 'reordered' activity row. The board, list, table, child
list and roles board now hand the planner the moved card's id, and it is
written alone whenever every other card already sorts and its gap has
room. The identity-gate rows for handleReorder and handleDndFinalize are
re-reviewed: the id is a synchronous planner argument, nothing moved.

* fix(web): the reorder row shows a direction only for two differing numbers (TASK-3525, codex)

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.

Stack

  • Svelte 5 with runes ($state, $derived, $effect)
  • SvelteKit 2 with adapter-static (SPA mode)
  • Tiptap block editor with markdown round-trip
  • svelte-dnd-action for drag-and-drop in board/list views
  • SSE for real-time updates
  • TypeScript throughout
