Remove generic per-tool card payloads and their shared renderer, leaving UI only for open_workspace and show_changes. Reads, edits, searches, and commands now return normal MCP results without creating an iframe for every call.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change removes tool-specific response metadata and legacy payload rendering. It narrows card contracts to workspace and review cards, updates patch display logic, and moves review rendering into the workspace app.

Changes

Review Card Simplification

Layer / File(s) Summary
Remove tool response metadata
src/server.ts, src/tool-surfaces/*
Tool responses no longer generate summaries, patches, or _meta.card payloads. Structured result content remains.
Reduce card contracts and expansion rules
src/ui/card-types.ts, src/ui/card-types.test.ts
ToolName now supports open_workspace and show_changes. Review availability and patch-only payloads replace the previous tool payload model.
Simplify patch display data
src/ui/patch-display.ts, src/ui/patch-display.test.ts
Patch titles and file kinds now use review file types. Rename paths and fallback matching use the revised data model.
Route and render review cards
src/ui/workspace-app.tsx, src/ui/workspace-app.css, src/ui/icons.ts, package.json
The workspace app renders review cards, mounts review payloads, displays review counts and unavailable-review warnings, and removes obsolete styles, icons, and test execution.
Remove legacy display modules
src/ui/tool-display.ts, src/ui/heavy-payload.tsx, src/ui/tool-display.test.ts
Legacy tool display generation, heavy-payload mounting, and related tests are deleted.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 957ca

The PR narrows the UI to workspace and change-review displays while returning normal results for other tools; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks and review.

Poem

I’m a rabbit with cards in a neat little row,
Old metadata hops out, new review fields grow.
Patches show titles, and workspaces shine,
Warnings explain when reviews decline.
Structured results keep the trail clear—
Thump, thump, the review cards are here!

Greptile Summary

The PR narrows the companion UI to workspace context and aggregate change review, removing individual read, mutation, patch, and process cards.

  • Adds review availability information to workspace cards.
  • Simplifies review titles, file metadata reconciliation, expansion, icons, and styling.
  • Removes obsolete heavy-payload and generic tool-display implementations.
  • Updates focused UI tests and documentation assets.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge with no concrete blocking or independently actionable non-blocking issues identified.

The server and UI consistently narrow widget delivery to workspace and aggregate review results, and the reviewed expansion and asynchronous rendering paths preserve their relevant state guards.

Important Files Changed

Filename Overview
src/server.ts Removes individual read-card metadata while retaining structured output and aggregate review-card delivery.
src/tool-surfaces/claude.ts Removes write, edit, and shell card payload construction without changing their model-facing results.
src/tool-surfaces/codex.ts Removes process and apply-patch card metadata in favor of aggregate show_changes review.
src/ui/card-types.ts Narrows the UI card contract to open_workspace and show_changes and adds review availability state.
src/ui/workspace-app.tsx Simplifies rendering around workspace and aggregate review cards while preserving guarded asynchronous payload mounting.
src/ui/patch-display.ts Simplifies review title, change-kind, and path reconciliation for checkpoint-generated file metadata.
src/ui/workspace-app.css Removes styles associated with deleted generic tool cards and heavy payload states.
package.json Removes the deleted tool-display test from the test command.

Add a case for the zero-file title.

getPatchDisplayParts has an emptyTitle branch, and cardDisplay in src/ui/workspace-app.tsx (Line 412) passes emptyTitle: "Changes ready". No test covers that branch now.

[GPT-5] RESPONDING ON BEHALF OF WAISHNAV

The CodeRabbit zero-file-title nit is addressed in 801a75e. The focused UI test now exercises the empty review state using the same Changes ready title passed by the workspace card.
