feat(landing/QueryLanding): drive the hero panel with a real QueryClient

[sukvvon]

The Query landing's hero panel stopped working: toggling Live on only swapped the label (fresh ⇄ paused) and Add issue just cycled the selected row. The bars and stats never changed, because they were hardcoded config values.

Where it comes from

LibraryLanding.tsx was introduced by #1027, which replaced the copy-pasted per-library landings with one config-driven template. Query's hero had been a working demo before that — git show ce725bd6^:src/components/landing/QueryLanding.tsx shows useQuery + useMutation with optimistic updates. Collapsing it into static config dropped the behaviour; QueryLanding.tsx went from 798 lines to 119.

What this does

Adds an optional heroRender to LibraryLandingConfig, so a landing can supply its own hero while keeping the shared feature/lifecycle/flow sections:

hero={config.heroRender ?? <LandingWorkbench config={config.hero} />}

Query passes a QueryCachePanel driven by a real QueryClient. Only Query opts in — every other landing keeps the mockup.

Each row is its own cache entry (['issues', id]) with its own staleTime and refetchInterval:

row	staleTime	refetchInterval
router-cache	2s	3s
project-detail	6s	7s
offline-queue	14s	15s

Every row therefore carries its own state badge (fresh / fetching / stale) next to its priority, and its gauge shows cache freshness — draining from 100% to 0% across that row's staleTime, hitting zero exactly when Query flips the entry to stale. The header summarises the set (fetching / N/3 fresh) rather than mirroring one row, with the in-flight count coming from useIsFetching instead of a hand-rolled tally.

Bump priority is an optimistic mutation on the selected row: onMutate writes ahead, onError restores the snapshot, and onSettled invalidates just that key, so the other rows keep their own freshness windows. Every third write is rejected on purpose, so the rollback path actually runs instead of being unreachable code — the failure surfaces as a toast via the site's useToast.

Rows seed at P0, so the badge reads as "how many times this entry was bumped" instead of an arbitrary number.

Row config is typed as a non-empty tuple (satisfies readonly [QueryHeroRow, ...QueryHeroRow[]]) rather than as const or a plain ReadonlyArray, so the seeds stay assignable and indexing into the rows is provably safe — the panel carries no as casts and no ! assertions on that path.

onMutate and mutationFn share one bumpQueryHeroIssue() helper. They previously computed the wraparound separately, which is exactly how they drifted apart once during development (the optimistic write wrapped to P80 while the server wrapped to P0); a single function makes that class of bug unrepresentable.

The detail pane lists status and fetchStatus as separate rows. With initialData seeded, status is pinned to success — it can never be pending (data is there from the first render) or error (only mutationFn rejects, and a failed background refetch surfaces through isRefetchError, not status). fetchStatus is the axis that actually moves, so showing the pair is what makes Query's two-axis loading model legible rather than looking like a stuck value.

The logic is ported from the pre-#1027 panel; the markup is rewritten against the current design tokens (--landing-accent, text-ds-*, font-ds-mono), the icons use phosphor, and the spinner/gauge respect prefers-reduced-motion.

Verified in the browser

The three gauges drain independently — all three sampled at the same instant, Live off:

42% | 87% | 40%
 0% | 70% | 33%     ← 2s row already stale
 0% | 37% | 19%
 0% |  0% |  0%

Live toggle controls refetching — with Live off the age readout holds (3s → 3s → 3s, 12 samples); with Live on it resets as each row refetches on its own interval.

Optimistic update and rollback — bumping the first row three times:

#	before	optimistic	after	mutation
1	P0	P1	P1	success
2	P1	P2	P2	success
3	P2	P3	P2	error

The other two rows stay at P0 throughout, and the rollback raises a toast naming both ends of the revert: Demo: every third write fails. Rolled ['issues', 'router-cache'] back from P3 to P2.

fetchStatus moves while status holds — clicking Refetch and sampling every 120ms:

success · idle → success · fetching → success · idle

Both columns end on the same baseline. The two grid columns always measured the same height; the mismatch was inside them — the row list left 51px of slack under the last card while the detail pane's mt-auto pinned its dl to the bottom. The rows now share the leftover height (flex-1), both columns use p-5, and the dl uses a fixed mt-7 — which also restores the gap under the description, where mt-auto had collapsed to 0px.

	1152px	900px (stacked)
bottom offset, list vs pane	0px	—
column bottom padding	20px / 20px	—
description → dl	28px	28px
row height	118.7px	99px
horizontal scroll	none	none

Three classes were then removed after measuring that each was inert: w-full on the row card (a flex child already stretches), justify-between on the row card (no effect at either width), and min-h-[22rem] on the grid (the panel measures 452px / 825px, so the 352px floor never binds). mt-4 on the gauge row was kept — it looks redundant next to the flex layout, but removing it collapses that gap to 0px at 900px, where the card has no slack to distribute. Every number in the table above is unchanged from before the cleanup.

Mobile. At 375px the grid overflowed its own box by 39px (scrollWidth 372 vs clientWidth 333), pushing the badges and the Ns stale label off-screen: grid items default to min-width: auto, so neither column could shrink below its content. Both columns now carry min-w-0, which drops the cards from 331.6px to 293px and clears the overflow. The two-column layout at 1152px measures identically to before.

Redundant guards were dropped, but three clamps were kept. Math.max(0, Math.min(100, …)) on freshness and the inner Math.max on the age label look like belt-and-braces, but now only advances on a 1s interval while dataUpdatedAt jumps the instant a refetch resolves, so now < dataUpdatedAt genuinely occurs — the raw arithmetic yields 145% and -1s ago in that window. What did come out: the duplicate dataUpdatedAt > 0 test feeding elapsed, and Math.max(now, dataUpdatedAt) - dataUpdatedAt, whose outer clamp already covers it.

tsc, oxlint and the 140 unit tests pass.

Note: observers comes from getObserversCount() on the cache entry, so it reads 1 — this panel is the only component subscribed to each key. It is shown because the count is a real Query concept, not because it varies here.

Changes

Landing component updates

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Custom hero configuration and wiring src/components/landing/LibraryLanding.tsx	LibraryLandingConfig now accepts an optional heroRender node. LibraryLanding uses it when provided and otherwise renders LandingWorkbench.
Query cache data flow src/components/landing/QueryLanding.tsx	QueryLanding now loads query cache snapshots, supports live polling and manual refetching, and derives cache status and freshness data.
Optimistic issue mutations and panel controls src/components/landing/QueryLanding.tsx	The query cache panel adds issues with optimistic updates, cancellation, rollback notifications, delayed server updates, settlement invalidation, and mutation controls.

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

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 74d0e

The PR restores the Query landing’s live cache behavior, optimistic updates, rollback handling, and independent freshness indicators for the Query hero panel while leaving other landings unchanged. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks and review.

369-374: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

The spinner ignores reduced motion.

animate-spin keeps rotating when the visitor prefers reduced motion. The progress bar on Line 341 already uses motion-reduce:transition-none, so the panel is inconsistent.

In `@src/components/landing/QueryLanding.tsx`:
- Around line 261-264: Update the fetchedLabel logic in QueryLanding so the
elapsed-time display refreshes periodically while the panel is mounted, using a
ticking state or equivalent timer-driven value instead of calling Date.now()
only during unrelated renders; preserve the existing “primed” fallback and
seconds formatting.
- Around line 266-270: Update the React.useEffect controlling isLive in
QueryLanding so it handles both preference states: enable live updates when
prefersReducedMotion is false and disable them when it is true, preserving the
dependency on prefersReducedMotion so changes stop the refetch loop.
