Drop the bottom-right floating "Admin mode" switch in favour of a proper
account menu in the header's upper-right (every tool's .header-right).
New shared/profile-menu.{js,css}: a circular avatar button (email initial)
opening a dropdown with the signed-in email, an "Admin mode" item (only for
can_elevate principals — drives elevation.setOn/setOff, drops on leave),
Profile (/.profile), and Access tokens (/.tokens). The panel is portaled to
<body> + position:fixed so it overlays content reliably regardless of the
app's stacking contexts; the button shows a red ring while elevated.
No logout: authentication is the upstream proxy's concern (oauth2-proxy /
Authelia) — ZDDC owns no session, so the menu doesn't render sign-out.
elevation.js keeps the state machine (cookie, armed banner/frame, ephemeral
pagehide-clear, zddc:elevationchange, ?admin= URL) but no longer renders any
control — the profile menu is the UI. elevation.css drops the floating-
toggle styles (keeps banner + frame). All 7 templates drop the dead
elevation-toggle placeholder; all 7 build.sh bundle profile-menu.{js,css}.
Validated in a containerized browser: menu items, links, elevation arming +
armed ring, dropdown overlays content, no floating toggle.

Three triggers for flushing pending edits:
- Save button in the toolbar — shown only when ≥1 row is dirty,
label reads "Save (N unsaved)". Disappears after a clean settle.
- Ctrl+S (Cmd+S) anywhere on the page, capturing-phase so it beats
the browser's "Save Page As" default.
- focusout of #table-root with a relatedTarget outside the grid —
catches "edit cell, click a header link, expect it to save".
The row-blur trigger stays — moving between rows still flushes. The
new triggers fill the gap when the user edits one row and then leaves
the grid entirely without first navigating to another row.
Dirty marker gets a 4px (was 3px) left swatch AND a faint blue
background tint on the row, so "unsaved" reads as a row state rather
than a small marker on the edge.
editor.setDraft / clearDraftField notify save.onDraftsChanged,
which refreshes the Save button + reapplies the dirty class.
saveRow on 200/201/202 also refreshes the button so it disappears
the moment its row settles.

Client-side download of the current view — filter + sort + column
order match what's on screen, values pass through util.formatCell so
dates / numbers / booleans render the same way they do in cells. RFC
4180 quoting; UTF-8 BOM so Excel detects encoding without an import
wizard. Sits next to "+ Add row" and shows for every table that
loaded with columns (no HTTP gate — the data is already in the
client), so MDL, RSK, SSR, and both project-level rollups all get
the affordance.

Polish pass after the big refactor in 2d114fc.
== Header elevation slot propagated ==
shared/elevation.{js,css} surface a header checkbox for admins.
30-minute sudo-style cookie window (Max-Age=1800, SameSite=Lax).
Only renders when /.profile/access reports can_elevate=true; quiet
for non-admins. Slot added to all 7 tool templates and concat'd
into all 7 build.sh files; admin in any tool now sees the toggle.
Three text-rename ride-alongs in archive/classifier/transmittal
templates: "Add Local Directory" → "Use Local Directory" (the same
rename that landed in browse earlier in this branch).
== Docs ==
- CLAUDE.md gets an "Admin elevation is sudo-style" paragraph in
the "Things that bite if you forget" section.
- AGENTS.md gets a dedicated "Admin elevation (sudo-style)" section
alongside "Bearer tokens" — same depth as the existing auth docs.
== Helper file splits ==
The retired form editor's shared helpers got bundled into a single
zddc_admin.go in the cleanup; that name is now misleading. Split by
concern:
- admin_helpers.go: hasAnyAdminScope (the only admin-specific helper)
- paths.go: resolvePath, urlPathOf, chainDirs (URL ↔ filesystem path
math — used by several profile / zddc-file handlers)
- profile_assets.go (renamed from zddc_admin_assets.go): custom CSS
pipeline. URL renamed from /.profile/zddc/assets/ → /.profile/assets/
since /.profile/zddc/ no longer hosts an editor.
- treeEntry moves to profilehandler.go (alongside AccessView, its
only consumer).
- writeError moves to profileprojects.go (its only consumer).
== Smell cleanup ==
- zddc.HasAnyAdminGrant(fsRoot, email) — new elevation-independent
primitive that walks the cascade and reports whether email is named
in any admin: list anywhere. Replaces the synthetic-elevated probe
hack in enumerateAccess (`Principal{Email, Elevated: true}` was
"lying" to the elevation gate to ask what it would say). The handler's
hasAnyAdminScope collapses to a 4-line wrapper that gates on
p.Elevated and delegates.
- Access-log middleware records `elevated` per request, so forensics
can distinguish "admin acting as user" from "admin exercising power."
- browse/js/app.js's ?file= deep link walks multi-segment paths. Each
intermediate segment is matched + expanded; the leaf gets
selected/previewed. Auto-shows hidden when any segment starts with
. or _. Silently no-ops on unresolved segments.

Per the reference doc at zddc.varasys.io/reference.html#tracking-numbers,
a tracking number is composed of: originator, [phase], project,
[area], discipline, type, sequence, [suffix]. The default Master
Deliverables List now surfaces every component as its own column,
plus the standard MDL metadata (title, plannedRevision,
plannedDate, status, owner). Columns appear in the canonical
filename order so the table reads left-to-right like the tracking
number itself.
Optional components ([phase], [area], [suffix]) render in the
table even when blank — keeps the layout consistent across rows.
Projects on a schema that doesn't use them hide the columns by
overriding (see customization).
Form schema (default-mdl.form.yaml):
- One JSON Schema property per tracking-number component, plus
the deliverable metadata. originator / project / discipline /
type / sequence are required; phase / area / suffix are
optional. The schema is intentionally permissive — free-text
strings on every component, no enums or regex constraints.
Projects pick their own conventions for originator codes,
discipline vocabularies, etc.; a default that imposed a
fixed set would just get in the way.
- Phase 2's editable-cell widget factory derives the right
per-cell editor from this schema: text inputs for the
components, the existing select for `status` (which keeps
its enum), date input for `plannedDate`, textarea for
`notes`.
Customization (the "way for end users to customize"):
- Drop your own table.yaml and / or form.yaml into the rows
directory (archive/<party>/mdl/, or any directory hosting a
table). Operator-supplied files override the embedded defaults
ATOMICALLY — there's no field-level merge, the operator file
wins entirely. This matches every other "spec on disk wins"
convention in zddc-server.
- Hide a column: omit it from the columns: list.
- Rename a column header: change `title:`.
- Add a column: append a {field, title} entry AND add a
matching property in form.yaml's schema.properties.
- Tighten constraints: use `enum:`, `pattern:`, `minLength:`
etc. on form.yaml properties.
- Pre-filter rows on load: defaults.filter[<field>].
The whole rows-directory is self-contained — copying mdl/ to a
new project takes the spec, the form, and every row YAML
together.
Documentation:
- AGENTS.md "Tables system" gains a paragraph on the default-MDL
column set + the customization mechanism + a pointer to the
embedded source files.
- tables/template.html help panel rewrites the body to cover:
* What the directory IS (spec + form + row YAMLs together).
* Editable-cell keyboard shortcuts (the Phase 1-5 sequence
we just shipped — arrows, Tab, Enter, F2, Delete, Ctrl+D /
R / C / V / Z, Shift+arrow / Shift+click for ranges).
* The auto-save model + per-row state swatch colors.
* The customization model with a worked file-tree example.
Replaces the obsolete pre-Phase-1 wording that referenced
`*.table.yaml` parent files and click-to-navigate-row UX.
Tests: no schema test changes — the default YAMLs are loaded
through the same RecognizeTableRequest / RecognizeFormRequest
paths that already cover the fallback. Full Playwright + Go
suites green (44 + 13).

Two intertwined refactors that share too many files to split cleanly.
Both are described separately below.
PART 1 — in-dir convention for table+form spec files
Old layout had the spec at the parent and rows in a child:
archive/<party>/
mdl.table.yaml spec
mdl.form.yaml row-edit form
mdl/ rows-dir
row-001.yaml ...
URLs were /<dir>/mdl.table.html and /<dir>/mdl.form.html. Copying
mdl/ elsewhere lost the spec and form because they lived next door.
New layout collapses everything into the rows-dir:
archive/<party>/mdl/ self-contained
table.yaml spec
form.yaml row-edit form
row-001.yaml ... rows
URLs become /<dir>/mdl/table.html and /<dir>/mdl/form.html. The
"copying-the-folder-takes-everything" property the user asked for
falls out by construction; the row-edit URL /<dir>/<id>.yaml.html
keeps the same shape (spec is now in the same dir, not the
grandparent).
Server changes:
- internal/handler/tablehandler.go RecognizeTableRequest fires on
/<dir>/table.html when <dir>/table.yaml exists. The .zddc.tables
alias map is gone — pure presence-based discovery now matches
the form system's existing convention. Default-MDL fallback at
archive/<party>/mdl/ stays for the virgin-archive case (the
rows-dir need not exist on disk; the URL renders fully virtually).
- internal/handler/formhandler.go RecognizeFormRequest fires on
/<dir>/form.html and /<dir>/<id>.yaml.html with spec at
<dir>/form.yaml. specEligible accepts on-disk files OR the
default-MDL virtual path so an empty mdl/ dir still surfaces the
add-row form.
- internal/handler/tablehandler.go IsDefaultMdlSpec moves to
serving archive/<party>/mdl/{table,form}.yaml (5 segments after
ZDDC_ROOT). New isAtArchivePartyMdlLevel predicate; new
isAtArchivePartyMdlDir for directory-based recognition. New
IsDefaultMdlSpecAbs accessor for callers that hold an abs path
rather than a URL (formhandler).
- internal/handler/formhandler.go loadFormSpec(fsRoot, path) falls
back to embedded default-MDL bytes when os.ReadFile returns
NotExist AND the path matches the archive-party-mdl shape. Three
call sites updated to pass cfg.Root.
- internal/handler/formhandler.go serveFormCreate writes
submissions to filepath.Dir(req.SpecPath) — the spec, the form,
and rows all live in one directory. The submissionsDir creation
is idempotent (MkdirAll); cascade falls back one level for ACL
evaluation when the dir hasn't been materialized yet.
- internal/handler/tablehandler.go tableRowsRedirect now points at
/<dir>/table.html (was /<dir>.table.html) when the directory
request maps to a recognized table.
- cmd/zddc-server/main.go dispatch synth flips from
urlPath + ".table.html" to urlPath + "/table.html" for the
no-trailing-slash → tables-app routing.
- internal/apps/availability.go DefaultAppAt comment clarified
that the dir at archive/<party>/mdl/ IS the table (not a child).
Client changes:
- tables/js/context.js walkServer fetches <currentdir>/table.yaml
directly — no .zddc walk for table declarations. Rows are every
*.yaml in current dir EXCLUDING table.yaml and form.yaml. The
.zddc fetch-for-aliases is gated on file:// (online mode 404s
on .zddc reads via the dispatcher's reserve guard, so skipping
the request avoids browser console noise).
- tables/js/main.js add-row button links to relative form.html
(same dir).
- tables/js/render.js + filters.js: every column's autofilter is
uniformly a text-contains input, even enum columns — keeps the
filter row visually consistent and doesn't constrain users to
the enum vocabulary.
PART 2 — unified table+form HTML bundle
The form-render and table-render code paths share field schemas,
the cell editor for excel-mode IS a form widget, and the form
system's POST-back / validation already exists. Combining the two
HTMLs eliminates duplicating jsyaml/jsonschema/theme/source-
detection/.zddc-parsing across two single-file tools.
- tables/template.html grows two top-level mode containers:
#table-mode (toolbar + sortable table) and #form-mode (form +
submit button). Both hidden at parse time; the dispatcher
unhides one. The shared #form-context placeholder was added
here so the server's existing injectFormContext target
resolves.
- tables/js/mode.js (new) sets window.zddcMode synchronously
based on URL pattern: /form.html or /<id>.yaml.html → form,
/table.html → table, else inline-context fallback for
file:// (whichever context blob is non-empty wins). Unhides
the matching container at DOMContentLoaded.
- tables/js/main.js init() and form/js/main.js boot() each guard
early when mode isn't theirs. Both apps live on different
globals (window.tablesApp vs window.formApp) so module
registration doesn't collide.
- form/js/main.js title write falls back from #form-title to
#table-title (the unified bundle's shared header element)
when the dedicated id isn't present.
- tables/build.sh concatenates form modules (widgets, render,
object, array, errors, post, serialize, util) and form CSS.
No new external deps. Bundle grows from ~95KB to ~120KB.
- internal/handler/formhandler.go drops the //go:embed form.html
directive; serveFormRender now writes embeddedTablesHTML via
a small formRenderHTML() accessor (var declared in
tablehandler.go, same package). The embedded form.html file
is removed.
- build script: cp form/dist/form.html → internal/handler/form.html
step is gone (file no longer exists in the source tree). cp
tables/dist/tables.html → internal/handler/tables.html now
runs unconditionally rather than only on beta/stable cuts —
the renderer is a fixed binary component and dev iteration
needs the embedded copy refreshed every build. Channel-cascaded
apps (internal/apps/embedded/) stay channel-gated as before.
- form/dist/form.html still builds for standalone offline-only
use (downloadable from /releases/), but no longer goes into
the binary.
Tests:
- internal/handler/tablehandler_test.go and formhandler_test.go
rewritten for the in-dir layout. New test
TestRecognizeFormRequest_DefaultMdlAtArchiveParty covers
empty-form, create POST, re-edit row, and the negative cases
(Working/, non-mdl name) where the fallback must NOT fire.
- internal/handler/directory_test.go updated for the new
/<dir>/table.html redirect target.
- cmd/zddc-server/main_test.go TestDispatchSlashRouting Location
expectation updated.
- tests/form-safety.spec.js loads tables/dist/tables.html
(named form.html in the temp dir to trigger form-mode in the
dispatcher) so it tests the same bytes the server returns.
Title-element selector switches to #table-title.
- tests/tables.spec.js updates the status-filter test for the
uniform text-input filter.
Docs:
- AGENTS.md form-data system rewrites the URL conventions and
storage layout for in-dir; gains a Tables system section
parallel to forms describing the self-contained-directory
property; subfolder rules ("one table per folder by
construction; subfolders allowed and silently ignored as rows
— legitimate uses: nested sub-tables, per-row attachments,
drafts, future history sidecars") so we don't re-derive this.
Not included (deferred):
- ACL gating on cell-level writes — not relevant until Phase 3.
- Editable cells UI — separate commit (Phase 1).

Tables is the eighth HTML tool: a read-only tabular view over a
directory of YAML files declared via `tables:` in `.zddc`. Anchor use
case is the Master Deliverables List, where each row is one
`<tracking>.yaml` under `Archive/<Party>/MDL/`. Rows click through to
the existing form renderer for editing.
Schema (zddc/internal/zddc/file.go)
- New `Tables map[string]string` on ZddcFile. Map key becomes the URL
stem (`tables[MDL]` → `<dir>/MDL.table.html`); the value is a path
relative to the .zddc pointing at a `*.table.yaml` spec describing
columns + the rows directory. No upward cascade in v1 — each
directory hosting a table declares it directly.
Server handler (zddc/internal/handler/tablehandler.go)
- `RecognizeTableRequest` matches GET `/<dir>/<name>.table.html`
against the cascade's `tables:` declarations. Dispatch routes
table requests before the form-system intercept.
- `ServeTable` ACL-gates with `policy.ActionRead` and serves the
embedded `tables.html` template; client walks the directory itself
via the listing JSON or FS Access API.
- tables.html embedded via //go:embed — same pattern as form.html.
Frontend (tables/)
- Vanilla JS: app/context/util/filters/sort/render/main modules.
- Reads spec + row YAML files via window.zddc.source (HTTP polyfill
or local FS handle); js-yaml 4.1.0 vendored in shared/vendor for
client-side parsing.
- Sample fixtures under tables/sample/ for local testing.
Build + CI
- Lockstep build registers tables alongside the other 7 tools (HTML
output, embed mirror, versions.txt, release-output, tags).
- Playwright project added; `npx playwright test --project=tables`
is part of `npm test`.
Drive-by: rename mdedit Playwright selectors `#select-directory` →
`#addDirectoryBtn` to fix three pre-existing failing tests.
Drive-by: ignore locally-built `zddc/zddc-server` binary so it doesn't
get accidentally staged.
