`positionFlow.js` was five per-domain concerns in one file — a field table, an
`@`-token resolver, a sentence extractor, a commit vocabulary and a set of
outcome renderers — and only the control flow between them was general.
Everything else knew it was creating a job posting. Adding a second
conversation meant a second copy of all of it.
So the control flow is now `conversationFlow.js` and each kind of record is a
REGISTRY. Which conversation a skill runs is the skill's own `flow:` line,
resolved through a map: `routing.js` used to say `if (skill.id ===
'create-position')`, which made a second conversational skill a change to the
router rather than a file on disk — the `if agent_key == ...` shape the
platform rules out one level up. The panel's write callback is likewise a map
keyed by flow id instead of an `onCreatePosition` prop, and the outcome wording
comes off the registry, so nothing in the panel names a kind of record any
more.
`create-employee-role` is the second registry. The worker is asked for and
never assumed: a conversation that names nobody re-asks rather than falling
back to the session, because an operator records this on somebody's behalf. Its
`extract` is deliberately narrower than the posting's — "bartender, weekends,
$30/hr" settles three fields and leaves the subject alone, since guessing WHO a
record is about from a fragment is how a role gets filed against the wrong
person.
THE CONFIRMATION STEP ACCEPTED "create position" AND SILENTLY REJECTED "create
positions" — the plural the Positions page itself uses. An anchored regex missed
it, and the reader got the summary back with no indication of what was wrong
with what they said, which is indistinguishable from the screen not having
updated. Matching is now exact membership against a normalized reply, so a
vocabulary is a list of phrases somebody can read rather than an expression
somebody has to parse.
Two bugs in `extractRole`, both of which fabricated a value nobody typed on the
one field a position cannot be created without:
- The phrase pattern marks "new" as the role by the same grammar that marks
"sous chef", so "create new position" opened the conversation titled "New".
The scaffolding is a PHRASE at least as often as a single word, so a
per-word test still produced "Brand New" and "One More". Scaffolding words
are now stripped to DECIDE whether the phrase named anything, and the
ORIGINAL phrase is returned when it did — strip to test, never to rewrite,
or "second chef" becomes "Chef" and the cure is worse than the bug.
- `(?:a|an)?\s*` has no word boundary, so it matched the leading "a" of
"another" and the capture began mid-word. That mangled scaffolding into
"Nother New" and, worse, corrupted every role introduced with "an":
"create an open kitchen lead position" titled the position "N Open Kitchen
Lead". A real role, typed correctly, silently wrong. Found by mutation
testing the first fix.
`@companies` and `@workers` resolve from data the panel already holds — postings
and profiles the API has already scoped to the caller — so neither widens
anybody's view and neither costs a request. The company list is deliberately
unsorted: `useJobPostings` asks for `-created_date`, so the clients staffed for
most recently come first, and the panel does no ranking of its own. That last
part is a rule the suite enforces structurally, and it is the right rule — a
second opinion formed in the panel outranking the server's is exactly the kind
of thing that decays quietly.
`npm test` now refuses a conversation step whose field its registry does not
define. `stepsOf` drops unknown fields, so a typo means the flow asks fewer
questions than the file lists — and a skill whose steps are ALL unknown asks
none, jumps to the summary, and offers to write an empty record. Nothing errors
and the Markdown still reads correctly. 970 checks, up from 924; the new ones
walk both conversations end to end, because a wrong answer at the confirmation
step re-renders the same summary a right answer does.
