- Untrack .playwright-cli/ and ignore it + *.png; route QA artifacts to /tmp - be/fe-implementer: require git status + test output + live smoke test in every report; never trust a running server, restart fresh; say so if unfinished (fixes the false-success-report failure mode from session 1) - qa: adversarial stance (distrust self-reports, confirm features exist via /openapi.json), restart both servers + reset dev DB before testing, write expected numbers into scenarios - Add HANDOFF.md and RETROSPECTIVE.md as session docs

CalCount — Session Handoff (2026-07-26)
Status snapshot for the next worker. Read SPEC.md and IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md
first; this file only records progress and session-specific notes.
Where we are in the plan
Milestone M1 (Manual calorie tracker) is COMPLETE. Tickets 001–005 all implemented, QA-verified, and committed. The app is usable end-to-end for manual food entry and daily logging.
| Ticket | Status | Commit |
|---|---|---|
| 001 Foods CRUD + soft-delete | ✅ done, QA passed | 3f2c765 |
| 002 Targets CRUD (single-active invariant) | ✅ done, QA passed | 601c0d4 |
| 003 Daily log write path | ✅ done, QA passed | 87d7eca |
| 004 Day summary endpoint | ✅ done, QA passed | 5372e8c |
| 005 Frontend daily view | ✅ done, QA passed | b69661c |
| 006 OFF + barcode scan/search flows | ⬜ next | — |
| 007 Meals (from-log, unpack, recursion) | ⬜ pending | — |
| 008 Food library view + restore | ⬜ pending | — |
Test counts at HEAD: backend 104 passed (cd backend && uv run pytest),
frontend vitest + npm run build green.
What was done this session
- Reviewed codebase/spec/plan; confirmed only scaffold existed.
- Ran tickets 001–005 through the agentic flow:
be-implementer/fe-implementerbuild,qaverifies independently (curl for backend-only tickets, playwright-cli browser automation for frontend), orchestrator commits between tickets. - Backend now has: full foods CRUD with soft-delete + shared query helpers,
targets with transactional single-active invariant + historical lookup,
daily log CRUD with embedded food payloads, and
/api/log/summarywith all nutrition math consolidated inservices/nutrition.py(weight vs count scaling; meals intentionally contribute 0 — marked TODO for TICKET-007). - Frontend now has: dashboard with progress bar vs target, meal-slot grouping,
inline edit/delete, date navigation (UTC-safe
shiftDateinlib/format.js), manual Add Food form, search-and-log flow with live preview, minimal target form, loading/error/empty states, mobile-first layout. All HTTP vialib/api.js; shared state instores.svelte.js; Svelte 5 runes only.
Process lessons (important for the next orchestrator)
- Implementer agents can falsely report success without writing code.
This happened twice (TICKET-004 backend, first TICKET-005 frontend attempt).
Mitigations that worked:
- Every implementer task must require
git status --shortevidence and a live smoke test (curl the endpoint / build + serve) in its report. - QA must be explicitly told not to trust the implementer's report and to
verify the feature exists (e.g. check
/openapi.jsonroutes) before testing.
- Every implementer task must require
- QA (playwright) genuinely catches real bugs — it found broken date-nav buttons and a stale-summary bug in TICKET-005; both were fixed and re-verified before commit.
- Backend servers go stale between tickets (old uvicorn missing new routes). QA handles restarts, but expect it.
Where to pick up: TICKET-006 (Milestone M2)
OFF normalization + barcode scan & search flows. Depends on 005 (done).
Read the TICKET-006 section of IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md — key points:
- Backend: OFF → foods normalization in exactly one module (kcal/kJ mapping,
User-Agent, timeouts);
GET /api/off/product/{barcode},GET /api/off/search,POST /api/off/refresh/{food_id}; restore-on-rescan rule (§3.1); implementGET /api/foods/recent; httpx mocked at the boundary in tests. - Frontend:
BarcodeScanner.svelte+lib/scanner.js(nativeBarcodeDetectorwith lazy zxing-wasm fallback, ~3–5 fps decode loop, camera teardown on destroy); scan flow per §4.1 with manual barcode fallback; OFF fallback in search per §4.2; recent foods surfaced in UI. - Camera testing caveat (from the user): a webcam exists but real scanner verification (esp. the §8.4 phone checklist — Android Chrome, iOS Safari, EAN-13/UPC-A) needs the user manually over Caddy HTTPS. Don't block the ticket on camera QA: verify the manual-barcode fallback and OFF search flows via playwright, and mark the phone checklist as pending user testing.
Loose ends / chores
.playwright-cli/artifacts are polluting the repo (some were even tracked in git before this session). Recommend:git rm -r --cached .playwright-cli, add it (and*.pngQA screenshots) to.gitignore, commit.README.mdhas an uncommitted user edit ("Agentic dev" section) — left untouched deliberately; commit or discard at the user's discretion.- Dev DB (
backend/calcount.db) contains QA test data ("QA Porridge", a 2000 kcal target). Reset by stopping uvicorn, deleting the file, restarting (migrations recreate the schema on startup). - Leftover background processes may be running (uvicorn :8000, vite :5173).
