## Launch prompt

`/goal next` → resolved from memory's `Next /goal:` field to **SLICE-3 —
Faceted left-pane filtering (read)** of the Configurable Collection Metadata
design (`docs/design/2026-06-06-configurable-collection-metadata.md` §7.2,
completing PUC-3).

## Pre-state

- Origin `main` = `1bcf8aa` @ **v0.48.0** (SLICE-2 — collection field schema +
  central validation — shipped session 0085). Local `main` clean, fully pushed.
- SLICE-1 sidecars + dual-read (v0.47.0) and SLICE-2 `fields:` schema +
  `app/metadata_schema.py` + `collections.get_collection().fields` in place.
- `cached_rfcs` persisted `tags_json` + lifecycle columns but **dropped**
  `Entry.extra` — so declared field values (priority, custom) were unrecoverable
  for faceting.
- One stale `SESSION-0080--INPROGRESS` placeholder (2026-06-06, predating the
  finalized 0083–0085 series) — an abandoned orphan, not a live concurrent
  session; noted and left untouched.

## Session arc

1. **Session-gate routing.** Classified `/goal next` → planning-and-executing
   (≥90% confident; SLICE-3 already spec'd upstream). Claimed session **0086**
   (atomic Gitea push). Clean `main` baseline confirmed.

2. **Orientation.** Read the design doc SLICE-3 section (§7.2 DoD), §6.4
   interfaces, §5.1 catalog left pane, the invariants (INV-3/5/7). Traced the
   code: list endpoints (`_list_rfcs_for_collection` + the two scoped routes),
   `cache._upsert_cached_rfc`, `metadata.metadata_dict`/`Entry.extra`,
   `Catalog.jsx`, the migration runner, and the test harnesses
   (`test_metadata_cache.py`'s `_set_default_fields_schema` + fake-Gitea fixture;
   `Directory.test.jsx`'s Vitest mocking; the lone `e2e/smoke.spec.js`).

3. **Plan.** Wrote `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-06-07-slice3-faceted-filtering.md`
   (writing-plans): 10 TDD tasks with locked decisions — facetable = declared
   `enum`+`tags` + built-in `state` (text not faceted v1); **drill-down** facet
   counts (a field's counts ignore its own selection); `malformed` a cross-cutting
   toggle; facets on the collection-scoped path only; `meta_json` stores the full
   `metadata_dict`.

4. **Execution (executing-plans, inline — tightly-coupled sequential tasks).**
   - migration 034 `cached_rfcs.meta_json` (additive/nullable).
   - `_upsert_cached_rfc` persists `metadata_dict(entry)` as `meta_json`.
   - pure `app/facets.py` (`facet_fields`/`allowed_filter_keys`/
     `filter_and_count`) + 8 unit tests.
   - `_list_rfcs_for_collection` reads `request.query_params`, validates keys
     (unknown → 400), returns `{items(+meta), facets}`; both scoped callers pass
     the params; unscoped `/api/rfcs` untouched. + 6 integration tests through
     `TestClient`.
   - frontend: `listRFCs(pid, cid, {selections, malformed})` → `{items,facets}`;
     new `FacetGroups.jsx`; `Catalog.jsx` faceted mode gated on `collection.fields`
     (server re-fetch on selection, split from the once-per-collection effect),
     legacy chips otherwise; malformed row marker; facet styles. + 3 Vitest tests.
   - v0.49.0: VERSION + package.json mirror, CHANGELOG with upgrade steps, SPEC
     §7.1 forward-pointer.

5. **Ship.** Backend **615** + frontend **39** green, build clean. PR **#33**
   (Gitea API) → merged to `origin/main` = `7ece6d3`, branch deleted, local main
   synced. Plan archived to `ben/ohm-rfc:plans/`.

## Cut state

- Origin `main` = `7ece6d3` @ **v0.49.0**. SLICE-3 shipped (PUC-3 complete).
- Backend 615 / frontend 39 green; build clean.
- **NOT deployed** — OHM live @ v0.46.1; undeployed gap now 4 minors
  (0.46.2/0.47.0/0.48.0/0.49.0), all non-breaking.

## Deferred decisions (operator plate)

- **Playwright E2E for the faceted pane deferred** to backend API-integration
  (`test_facets_api.py`) + frontend Vitest (`Catalog.test.jsx`). Rationale: the
  only E2E spec runs against a full local-Docker stack with seeded Gitea, and
  there is no fixture for a collection carrying a `fields:` schema + entries with
  metadata values; §9 explicitly *references* the E2E/PPE machinery rather than
  automating it while it is being built. Revisit when the §9 E2E seeding harness
  exists. (Consistent with how SLICE-1/SLICE-2 were tested.)
- **`text`-type fields not faceted in v1** — free text makes a poor facet group;
  §5.1 says "one per schema field" but only `enum`/`tags`/`state` are sensible
  facets. `text` gets a detail control in SLICE-4. Logged for the spec.
- **§9 pipeline status:** localhost unit/integration + component tests run and
  green; PPE + prod deploy and browser E2E **not** run this session (deferred to a
  batched deploy session — the 4-minor gap above).

## Next session

```
/goal SLICE-4 — single-entry metadata edit (completes PUC-1), per docs/design/2026-06-06-configurable-collection-metadata.md §7.2 SLICE-4
```

SLICE-4 also **carries the SLICE-1-deferred work**: make every write path
sidecar-aware (`api_graduation.py` graduation/claim/`_read_meta_entry`, `bot.py`
`mark_entry_reviewed`, `api_branches.py` `_wrap_body`/`_extract_body`,
`api_prs.py` PR-replay wrappers) **before** the `metadata.migrate_collection`
Owner-gated operator endpoint can ship. Write-boundary enforcement turns
`metadata_schema.validate` from advisory → 422-blocking (INV-4). Read the
`rfc-app-multiproject` memory's session-0086 block first.
