Feature Specification: Ops-UX Enforcement & Cleanup (Enterprise Standard Rollout)

Feature Branch: 110-ops-ux-enforcement
Created: 2026-02-23
Status: Draft
Depends On: specs/055-ops-ux-rollout/spec.md

Spec Scope Fields (mandatory)

  • Scope: tenant (all operation-run-producing flows within a tenant)
  • Primary Routes: No new routes. Affected internal flows: Inventory Sync, Backup Schedule Retention, Backup Schedule Run, Bulk Policy Export, Bulk Restore Run Force Delete, Add/Remove Policies to Backup Set, Restore Run execution.
  • Data Ownership: operation_runs (tenant-scoped), notifications (tenant user-scoped). No schema changes required.
  • RBAC: No new RBAC surfaces. Existing capability gates on triggering operations remain unchanged. Notification delivery is limited to the initiator user. System/scheduled runs with no initiator receive no DB notification.

Canonical-view fields not applicable — no new views introduced.

User Scenarios & Testing (mandatory)

User Story 1 — No Silent Completions (Priority: P1)

As a tenant admin, when I trigger any tracked operation (Inventory Sync, Retention, Backup Schedule Run), I always receive exactly one terminal DB notification upon completion, so I can audit the outcome without checking the Monitoring hub manually.

Why this priority: Silent completions break auditability — the core promise of the Ops-UX system. Missing terminal notifications mean admins have no persistent outcome record outside the Monitoring hub.

Independent Test: Trigger (or simulate) an inventory sync run to terminal state and assert exactly one OperationRunCompleted DB notification exists for the initiator.

Acceptance Scenarios:

  1. Given an inventory_sync OperationRun with an initiator, When InventorySyncService transitions it to a terminal outcome, Then exactly one OperationRunCompleted DB notification is persisted for the initiator user.
  2. Given an apply_backup_retention OperationRun with an initiator, When ApplyBackupScheduleRetentionJob completes (success or failure), Then exactly one OperationRunCompleted DB notification is persisted for the initiator user.
  3. Given an OperationRun with no initiator (system/scheduled run), When the run transitions to terminal, Then zero DB notifications are emitted.

User Story 2 — No Notification Spam (Priority: P1)

As a tenant admin, I never receive duplicate completion DB notifications for a single run, and I never receive queued/running state DB notifications for any operation.

Why this priority: Notification spam erodes trust in the notification surface. Even one duplicate makes admins ignore notifications — defeating the entire audit layer.

Independent Test: Simulate a RunBackupScheduleJob to completion and assert zero queued/running DB notifications exist, and exactly one terminal DB notification.

Acceptance Scenarios:

  1. Given a backup schedule run job enqueued and completed, When all job code paths execute, Then zero queued/running DB notifications are persisted, and exactly one terminal OperationRunCompleted exists for the initiator.
  2. Given a BulkPolicyExportJob that reaches terminal state via any path (success / abort / circuit-break), Then exactly one terminal OperationRunCompleted DB notification exists and zero notifications from job-level sendToDatabase() calls.
  3. Given any bulk job that previously sent custom completion DB notifications (BulkRestoreRunForceDeleteJob, AddPoliciesToBackupSetJob, RemovePoliciesFromBackupSetJob), When the job completes, Then no job-level DB notifications are emitted.

User Story 3 — Legacy Notification Removed (Priority: P1)

As a tenant admin running a restore operation, my completion feedback comes exclusively from the canonical OperationRunCompleted notification, not from a legacy RunStatusChangedNotification with inconsistent copy or link behavior.

Why this priority: The legacy class is an out-of-system notification that bypasses canonical delivery, creating inconsistent UX copy and a second notification channel that cannot be centrally controlled.

Independent Test: Confirm RunStatusChangedNotification class does not exist in app/ and ExecuteRestoreRunJob no longer references it. Restore run completion produces exactly one OperationRunCompleted.

Acceptance Scenarios:

  1. Given ExecuteRestoreRunJob completes a restore run to terminal state, Then no RunStatusChangedNotification is dispatched, and exactly one OperationRunCompleted DB notification is persisted for the initiator.
  2. Given a developer searches app/ and tests/ for RunStatusChangedNotification, Then no results are found (class deleted, all references removed).

User Story 4 — Regression Guards Enforce the Constitution (Priority: P1)

As a developer working on the repo, if I accidentally introduce a direct $operationRun->update(['status' => ...]) outside OperationRunService, a CI guard test immediately fails with a clear file + snippet report so I know exactly what to fix.

Why this priority: Without automated guards, the enforcement degrades over time as new features are added. Guards are the only scalable way to maintain the constitution without manual code review on every PR.

Independent Test: Introduce a synthetic violation in a temp file, run the guard test, confirm it fails with actionable output. Remove the violation, confirm the test passes.

Acceptance Scenarios:

  1. Given the codebase contains a direct $operationRun->update(['status' => ...]) outside OperationRunService, When the guard test runs, Then it fails and outputs the violating file path and snippet.
  2. Given a job file contains both an OperationRun reference and a sendToDatabase() call (not on the allowlist), When the DB-notification guard test runs, Then it fails with the file path.
  3. Given any file in app/ or tests/ references RunStatusChangedNotification, When the legacy-class guard test runs, Then it fails.
  4. Given the codebase has no violations, When all guard tests run, Then all pass green.

User Story 5 — Canonical "Already Queued" Toast (Priority: P2)

As a tenant admin triggering an operation that is already queued, I receive a consistent, canonical "already queued" toast message rather than ad-hoc copy from individual feature components, so the experience is uniform across all operation types.

Why this priority: P2 polish — non-blocking, but addresses the last remaining ad-hoc UX copy point identified in the audit.

Independent Test: Trigger the "already queued" dedup path in BackupSetPolicyPickerTable and assert the toast uses the canonical presenter output.

Acceptance Scenarios:

  1. Given an operation is already queued, When a user attempts to queue it again via the policy picker, Then a toast is shown using OperationUxPresenter::alreadyQueuedToast(...) with canonical copy.

Edge Cases

  • What happens when a job fails with an unhandled exception — does the OperationRun get stuck in a non-terminal state? (Assumption: existing job failed() callback or finally block already transitions via service; confirm during implementation per-file.)
  • What happens when OperationRunService itself throws during terminal transition? (Assumption: run stays non-terminal; pre-existing behavior outside scope of this spec.)
  • What if an OperationRun has no initiator and a job previously sent a DB notification — will removing that path cause silence? (Confirmed acceptable: system runs are auditable via Monitoring hub only.)

Requirements (mandatory)

Constitution alignment — OPS-UX-001: This spec enforces the Ops-UX 3-surface contract. All status/outcome transitions must be routed through OperationRunService. Terminal DB notifications are sent exclusively via OperationRunCompleted from within the service. No job or feature code may send its own completion DB notification.

Constitution alignment — No new Filament screens: This spec makes no changes to Filament Resources, RelationManagers, or Pages (beyond the optional P2 presenter helper). The UI Action Matrix is not required.

Constitution alignment — No new Graph calls / OperationRun types: This spec modifies existing operation flows only; it does not introduce new operation types or Graph calls.

Constitution alignment — BADGE-001: No new status badge values introduced.

Functional Requirements

  • FR-001: All OperationRun status and outcome field transitions MUST go through OperationRunService canonical transition methods. Direct $operationRun->update(['status' => ...]), $operationRun->status = ..., $operationRun->outcome = ..., or bulk query updates on status/outcome are forbidden outside OperationRunService.
  • FR-002: OperationRunService MUST emit exactly one OperationRunCompleted DB notification to the initiator when transitioning a run to a terminal outcome (when an initiator exists).
  • FR-003: No job or service code outside OperationRunService MAY emit a DB notification representing operation completion, abort, or terminal state.
  • FR-004: No code anywhere MAY emit a DB notification for queued or running operation states.
  • FR-005: RunStatusChangedNotification MUST be deleted. No references to it may remain in app/ or tests/.
  • FR-006: InventorySyncService MUST transition to terminal state exclusively via OperationRunService, not via direct model updates.
  • FR-007: ApplyBackupScheduleRetentionJob MUST transition to terminal state exclusively via OperationRunService.
  • FR-008: TenantpilotBackfillWorkspaceIds console command MUST use the canonical transition if it transitions OperationRun status (initiator may be null; no DB notification emitted in that case).
  • FR-009: RunBackupScheduleJob MUST NOT emit any queued or completion DB notifications; outcome notification is handled by OperationRunService terminal transition.
  • FR-010: BulkPolicyExportJob, BulkRestoreRunForceDeleteJob, AddPoliciesToBackupSetJob, and RemovePoliciesFromBackupSetJob MUST NOT call sendToDatabase() for operation completion or abort feedback.
  • FR-011: Context-only updates (e.g., updating context, message, reason_code fields without touching status or outcome) are permitted directly on the model outside OperationRunService.
  • FR-012: Three Pest guard tests MUST exist and pass in CI:
    • Guard A: Detects direct status/outcome transitions outside OperationRunService; reports file + snippet.
    • Guard B: Detects sendToDatabase() calls in operation-flow jobs that also reference OperationRun; reports file path.
    • Guard C: Detects any reference to RunStatusChangedNotification in app/ or tests/.
  • FR-013 (P2): OperationUxPresenter MUST expose an alreadyQueuedToast(...) static helper returning canonical copy + duration (+ optional "View run" action).
  • FR-014 (P2): BackupSetPolicyPickerTable dedup toast MUST use OperationUxPresenter::alreadyQueuedToast(...).

Testing Plan (Pest)

Guard tests (mandatory — CI enforcement layer)

  • tests/Feature/OpsUx/Constitution/DirectStatusTransitionGuardTest.php
  • tests/Feature/OpsUx/Constitution/JobDbNotificationGuardTest.php
  • tests/Feature/OpsUx/Constitution/LegacyNotificationGuardTest.php

Regression tests (mandatory for P0 fixes)

  • tests/Feature/OpsUx/Regression/InventorySyncTerminalNotificationTest.php — exactly one OperationRunCompleted for initiator; none for system run
  • tests/Feature/OpsUx/Regression/BackupRetentionTerminalNotificationTest.php — exactly one OperationRunCompleted; no direct model transitions
  • tests/Feature/OpsUx/Regression/BackupScheduleRunNotificationTest.php — zero queued DB notifications; exactly one terminal notification
  • tests/Feature/OpsUx/Regression/BulkJobCircuitBreakerTest.php — circuit-breaker / abort path yields exactly one terminal OperationRunCompleted and zero job-level DB notifications (representative bulk job)
  • Guards: tests/Feature/OpsUx/Constitution/
  • Regressions: tests/Feature/OpsUx/Regression/

Success Criteria (mandatory)

Measurable Outcomes

  • SC-001: Every tracked operation with an initiator produces exactly one persistent DB notification upon terminal completion — zero operations complete silently.
  • SC-002: Zero queued/running DB notifications are emitted across all operation flows.
  • SC-003: Zero duplicate completion DB notifications for any single operation run across all exit paths (success, failure, partial, circuit-break).
  • SC-004: RunStatusChangedNotification class is fully deleted — zero references remain in the codebase.
  • SC-005: All three CI guard tests pass green on a clean codebase and fail with actionable output when a synthetic violation is introduced.
  • SC-006: All existing OpsUx test suites and related test files pass without regression after changes.
  • SC-007 (P2): All "already queued" dedup feedback paths use identical canonical copy, verifiable by a single source-of-truth presenter call.

Definition of Done (DoD)

  • All in-scope files no longer directly update status/outcome outside OperationRunService
  • All in-scope jobs no longer emit completion/abort/queued DB notifications
  • RunStatusChangedNotification deleted; zero references in app/ and tests/
  • Three guard tests exist and pass in CI (and fail with actionable output on synthetic violations)
  • All OpsUx regression tests pass
  • Full test suite green (no regressions)
  • Pint formatting clean for all touched files
  • AGENTS.md / constitution updated to reference the non-negotiable Ops-UX rule if not already present from 055 follow-up

Assumptions

  1. OperationRunService already exposes a canonical terminal transition method (from Spec 055); this spec calls it, not redeclares it.
  2. The failed() job lifecycle callback or try/finally blocks in affected jobs already exist (or will be added) to ensure terminal transitions even on unhandled exceptions — confirmed during implementation per-file.
  3. Guard tests are static analysis (filesystem grep-based) Pest tests, not runtime tests. They do not require a running application.
  4. The allowlist for Guard B (job DB notifications) is intentionally minimal. Any new entry requires justification in a spec comment.
  5. P2 tasks (T110-040/041) are optional and do not gate release of P0/P1 work.
