# Scratchpad — Deletion UX Improvement
|
|
|
|
- Plan slug: `deletion-ux-improvement`
|
|
- Created: `2026-02-12`
|
|
- Source plan: `.ai/deletion_improvement_plan.md` (v2, schema-verified)
|
|
|
|
## What This Is
|
|
|
|
Keep a lightweight, continuously-updated log of discoveries and decisions made while implementing this plan.
|
|
|
|
## Decisions
|
|
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Plain functions over class**: `DeletionValidationService` class replaced with plain exported functions in `deletionValidation.ts`. Codebase uses functional patterns everywhere (server actions, model methods, utilities). No instance state in the service = no reason for a class.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Atomic validate-and-delete**: `deleteEntityWithValidation` runs validation + tag cleanup + deletion in a single `withTransaction` call. Prevents TOCTOU race condition present in current `deleteClient` (separate transactions for validation and deletion).
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Separate read-only precheck**: `preCheckDeletion` kept as a separate action for the dialog preview step (when dialog opens). This is read-only and lightweight.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **DeleteEntityDialog as new component**: Created as a new component in `@alga-psa/ui`, NOT a modification of existing `ConfirmationDialog`. The deletion UX (dependency lists, alternatives, loading states) is complex enough to warrant its own component. ConfirmationDialog stays general-purpose.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Alternative action dispatch by action type string**: `onAlternativeAction('deactivate')` instead of magic handler name strings like `markClientInactive`. The component consumer maps action types to their own handlers.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Automatic tag cleanup via config**: `tagEntityType` field in `EntityDeletionConfig` triggers automatic `deleteEntityTags` call in `deleteEntityWithValidation`. Eliminates manual tag cleanup calls scattered across packages.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Package is @alga-psa/ui, not @alga-psa/ui-kit**: Verified that `ConfirmationDialog`, `Dialog`, `Button` etc. are all in `@alga-psa/ui`. The `@alga-psa/ui-kit` package exists separately but is not the target.
|
|
|
|
## Discoveries / Constraints
|
|
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Schema corrections from v1 plan** — multiple foreign key names were wrong:
|
|
- `company_id` → `client_id` everywhere (contacts, tickets, projects, invoices, assets, interactions)
|
|
- `user_team_members` → actual table is `team_members`
|
|
- `company_billing_plans` → does not exist; contracts use `contract_lines` + `client_contracts`
|
|
- `company_tax_settings.tax_rate_id` → column doesn't exist; use `client_tax_rates.tax_rate_id`
|
|
- `schedule_entries.user_id` → doesn't exist; users are assigned via `schedule_entry_assignees` (M2M join table)
|
|
- `invoices.tax_rate_id` → doesn't exist; tax rates link via `client_tax_rates`
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Client deletion checks `is_default`**: The default company cannot be deleted. This is an entity-specific precondition that runs before the generic validation. Other entities may have similar preconditions.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Tag cleanup currently integrated in 4 places**: tickets, clients, contacts, project tasks. Missing from: projects (parent entity), assets, documents, and others.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Cascade tag cleanup for projects**: When deleting a project, child tasks need bulk tag cleanup via `deleteEntitiesTags(trx, taskIds, 'project_task')`.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **ConfirmationDialog has 3-button support**: Uses `thirdButtonLabel` + `onCancel` for three-way choices. Used by TagManager, TaskForm, ClientDetails, BoardsSettings. This is general-purpose, NOT deletion-specific.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **ConfirmationDialog has radio options**: `options` prop renders radio buttons, used for recurring event scope selection. Also NOT deletion-specific.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Status entity has dynamic deps**: Status dependencies depend on `status_type` (ticket statuses check tickets.status_id, interaction statuses check interactions.status_id). Needs special handling in the action, not in static config.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Permission helper variants**: Some packages use `hasPermission` directly, others use `hasPermissionAsync()` wrapper to avoid circular dependencies. Watch for this during migration.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **`notes_document_id` cleanup**: Several entities (clients, contacts) have a `notes_document_id` that needs cleanup during deletion. This is entity-specific logic in `performDelete`, not part of the generic system.
|
|
|
|
## Commands / Runbooks
|
|
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Verify schema**: `docker exec -e PGPASSWORD="$(cat secrets/db_password_server)" bigmac_postgres psql -h localhost -p 5432 -U app_user -d server -c "SELECT column_name FROM information_schema.columns WHERE table_name = 'TABLE_NAME'"`
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Docker compose project**: `bigmac` (detected from container names like `bigmac_postgres`)
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **DB access**: Exposed on port 5433, credentials in `server/.env` + `secrets/db_password_server`

## Open Questions
|
|
|
|
- Should DeleteEntityDialog support dark mode styling from the start? (active dark mode work on `dark_times` branch)
|
|
- For cascade entities (tickets, projects), should the dialog explain what gets cascade-deleted?
|
|
- Should bulk delete in TicketingDashboard use validateBulkDeletion immediately or defer to P3?

|
- (2026-02-12) Migrated asset deletion to deleteEntityWithValidation and DeleteEntityDialog (DeleteAssetButton), with dependency preview via preCheckDeletion.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Schedule entry deletion migrated**: deleteScheduleEntry now uses deleteEntityWithValidation, preserves private-entry checks, returns DeletionValidationResult, and permission mapping now treats schedule_entry as user_schedule. Updated ScheduleCalendar and EntryPopup to use DeleteEntityDialog with preCheckDeletion and recurrence-scope selection; WeeklyScheduleEvent now defers delete confirmation to ScheduleCalendar dialog. Technician dispatch ScheduleEvent now uses DeleteEntityDialog with preview and validates before delete; delete pipeline returns validation results for dialog display.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Lint note**: eslint still reports pre-existing warnings and the feature-to-feature import error in TechnicianDispatchDashboard (scheduling -> tickets). Not introduced by this change.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Survey template deletion migrated**: Added survey_template deletion config (survey_triggers, survey_invitations, survey_responses deps) and mapped survey_template permissions to settings for delete checks. deleteSurveyTemplate now uses deleteEntityWithValidation and returns DeletionValidationResult. TemplateList + TemplateForm now use DeleteEntityDialog with preCheckDeletion for preview and deletion.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Lint note**: surveys eslint still reports existing feature-to-feature import error (surveys -> tickets) and warnings unrelated to this change.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Workflow deletion migrated**: Added preCheckWorkflowDefinitionDeletion and updated deleteWorkflowDefinitionAction to use deleteEntityWithValidation with active-run/system checks returning DeletionValidationResult. WorkflowList now uses DeleteEntityDialog with dependency preview and handles validation failures; bulk delete respects new result shape. Updated deletion permission checks to use workflow 'manage' action (no delete permission exists) via permissionActionFor.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Lint note**: workflows eslint shows many pre-existing warnings; no new errors.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Role deletion migrated**: deleteRole now uses deleteEntityWithValidation with admin-role guard and returns DeletionValidationResult. RoleManagement uses DeleteEntityDialog with preCheckDeletion preview and handles validation failures. Added permission mapping for role deletions to security_settings.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Lint note**: auth package retains pre-existing warnings (unused Flex/Text, handleUpdateRole, explicit any).
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Interaction type deletion migrated**: deleteReferenceDataItem now routes interaction_types through deleteEntityWithValidation using interaction_type config. No dedicated UI entrypoint found for interaction type settings; action now returns DeletionValidationResult for DeleteEntityDialog usage where applicable.
|
|
- (2026-02-12) **Lint note**: reference-data eslint warnings are pre-existing.
