# Session Handoff

<!--
  OVERWRITE, don't append: this file describes only the most recent session.
  Rewrite it at end of session; older handoffs live in git history, and completed
  work belongs in archive/YYYY-MM.md. If this file grows past ~80 lines, it is
  accumulating history instead of handing off.

## Current Objective

- Two fixes this session, both committed onto `claude/fix-directory-symlink-pull-260713` (PR #51), **not yet pushed to remote**:
  1. **feat-014** (commit `114a575`): GitHub's `pushBatch`/`deleteBatch` switched from the REST Git Data API's per-file blob-creation loop to a single GraphQL `createCommitOnBranch` mutation.
  2. **feat-015** (commit `7676325`): fixed a false "modified" status shown right after a batch push, caused by re-fetching the remote tree too soon after a write (GitHub's tree-by-branch-name read can lag a moment behind a just-completed commit).

## Completed This Session

- [x] `githubGraphQL()` helper in `github-service.ts`; explicit handling for GraphQL's 200-status-with-`errors`-array failure mode.
- [x] `BaseGitService.getLatestCommitSha()` extracted from `resolveGitHubStyleBaseTree()`.
- [x] `SyncManager.pushAllFiles()` now returns `syncedPaths: Array<{path, sha?}>`, populated at all three push-success sites (batch chunk, sequential fallback, immediate symlink/rename push).
- [x] `SyncStatusView.executeBatchOperation()` marks just-pushed paths `'synced'` directly via a new `applyOptimisticSyncedStatus()` instead of calling `refreshAllStatuses()` after a push. Pull is unchanged (still does a full refresh).
- [x] Live-verified both fixes against a real GitHub repo (`firstsun-dev/obsidian-sync-test`) using a scratchpad script that bundles the actual `github-service.ts` with a thin `obsidian` stub (`requestUrl` backed by real `fetch`) — not just mocks.
- [x] Filed issue #57 on `firstsun-dev/git-files-sync` (Project #6, P2, 4h): build a repeatable live-credential smoke test process across GitHub/GitLab/Gitea (this session only covered GitHub).
- [x] Cleaned up harness state: archived feat-011/012/013 + issue #78 fix + status-badge UI work into `archive/2026-07.md` (progress.md had grown past its own 80-line cleanup threshold); trimmed `feature_list.json` evidence strings under 300 chars. Harness self-audit went from 96/100 to 100/100.

## Verification Evidence

| Check | Command | Result | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lint | `npx eslint .` | 0 errors | |
| Type check + compat | `npm run build` | Pass | Includes Obsidian 1.11.0 compat typecheck |
| Tests | `npx vitest run` | 344/344 passed | +3 new: 2 for `syncedPaths`, 1 more for the post-push status behavior (total 5 new across both fixes) |
| Live smoke test | ad-hoc scratchpad scripts | Pass | feat-014: pushBatch/deleteBatch each produced one commit with correct content. feat-015: single empty file and two-identical-empty-file batches both wrote correct 0-byte blobs with matching git shas — confirmed the bug was read-side (tree fetch timing), not write-side |
| Manual (in Obsidian) | — | Not done | No Obsidian instance available in this environment |

## Files Changed (this session)

- feat-014: `src/services/github-service.ts`, `src/services/git-service-base.ts`, `tests/services/github-service.test.ts`
- feat-015: `src/logic/sync-manager.ts`, `src/ui/SyncStatusView.ts`, `tests/logic/sync-manager-batch.test.ts`, `tests/ui/SyncStatusView.test.ts`
- Harness state: `progress.md`, `session-handoff.md`, `feature_list.json`, `archive/2026-07.md`

## Decisions Made

- **GraphQL only for GitHub**: GitLab's Commits API already sends a whole batch in one call; Gitea has no GraphQL API. `GitServiceInterface` stays REST-based elsewhere.
- **Optimistic local status update over re-fetching (feat-015)**: use data already known from the push itself rather than trusting an immediate remote read, which sidesteps GitHub's eventual-consistency window rather than just narrowing it with a delay/retry.
- **Credential handling**: PATs must go into a scratchpad file the agent reads directly (`fs.readFileSync`), never typed as a `!`-prefixed command (still lands in the transcript) or passed as a Bash command-line argument (blocked by the permission classifier as credential materialization). Filed issue #57 to formalize this as the only documented path for future provider testing.

## Blockers / Risks

- **Commits `114a575` and `7676325` are local only** — not pushed to `origin/claude/fix-directory-symlink-pull-260713` yet. Confirm with the user before pushing.
- PR #51 keeps growing (10+ issues' worth now) — still worth flagging before adding more.

## Next Session Startup

1. Read `CLAUDE.md`, `feature_list.json`, `progress.md`, then this file.
2. Run `./init.sh` before editing.
3. Check whether `114a575`/`7676325` have been pushed yet (`git log origin/claude/fix-directory-symlink-pull-260713..HEAD`); push first if not, after confirming with the user.

## Recommended Next Step

- Push this session's two commits, then either re-sync `gh issue list` or move to issue #37 (Bitbucket provider support) per the previously agreed order.
