1# MR 7: Repository actions — fork, watch/mute, bookmark Implementation Plan
2
3> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
4
5**Goal:** Close three parity rows — `fork`, `watch, mute`, and `bookmark, bookmark list`.
6
7**Architecture:** Three repository-level actions on one screen, all thin writes over existing commands. The complication is that the server reports back almost none of the resulting state, so each of the three gets a different treatment depending on what is actually readable.
8
9**Spec:** `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-09-06-ios-parity-design.md`
10
11## What the server does and does not report
12
13This shaped every decision below, and it is worth stating plainly because it is not what the spec assumed.
14
15| State | Readable? | Consequence |
16|-------|-----------|-------------|
17| Watch / mute | **No.** `store.RepoWatchState` exists but is internal; no command exposes it | Two stateless actions, not a toggle |
18| Bookmarked | **Indirectly** — `repo bookmarks` lists them, membership is derivable | A real toggle, at the cost of one list read |
19| `fork_of` | **No** on `repo show`; only on `repo fork`'s own response (`internal/control/mr.go:94`) | Cannot show "forked from X" for an existing repository |
20
21Filed upstream as **krz/gitbay#178**. Do not work around any of it by inventing local persistence — the app renders server state; it does not remember its own.
22
23## Global Constraints
24
25- Swift 6 language mode, default `MainActor` isolation. Wire models are `nonisolated struct`s.
26- Swift Testing only — never XCTest.
27- `gitbayTests` is hermetic and offline; network goes through `StubProtocol`.
28- New files under `gitbay/` and `gitbayTests/` need **no** `project.pbxproj` edit.
29- The label model is `IssueLabel`; the notification model is `InboxNotification`. Neither shadows a framework type, and neither should be renamed back.
30- Never mention Claude, LLMs or AI in commits, comments, or the merge request. No `Co-Authored-By` trailer.
31- Never commit to `main`.
32
33**The commands, verbatim from the registry:**
34
35```
36repo fork <owner/name> [--name <n>]
37repo watch <owner/name>
38repo unwatch <owner/name>
39repo bookmark <owner/name>
40repo unbookmark <owner/name>
41repo bookmarks
42```
43
44Note `repo bookmarks` — **plural, and it takes no argument**. It is not `repo bookmark list`.
45
46`repo fork` returns `{"path": "<new owner/name>", "fork_of": "<source>"}`.
47
48**Counting tests:**
49
50```bash
51grep -cE "^Test case '[^']*' passed" /tmp/out.txt
52grep -cE "^Test case '[^']*' failed" /tmp/out.txt
53grep -cE "^Test case '[^']*' skipped" /tmp/out.txt
54```
55
56Baseline: **297 passed, 1 skipped, 0 failed.**
57
58---
59
60## File Structure
61
62| File | Responsibility |
63|------|----------------|
64| `gitbay/Repos/RepoActionsViewModel.swift` (create) | `ForkResult` model, bookmark state, and the five actions |
65| `gitbayTests/RepoActionTests.swift` (create) | Every test in this plan |
66| `gitbay/Views/Repos/RepoView.swift` (modify) | The actions, in the repository's menu |
67
68---
69
70### Task 1: The actions and the bookmark state
71
72**Files:** Create `gitbay/Repos/RepoActionsViewModel.swift`; test in `gitbayTests/RepoActionTests.swift`
73
74**Interfaces produced:**
75- `nonisolated struct ForkResult: Decodable, Sendable, Hashable` — `path: String`, `forkOf: String`
76- `@Observable @MainActor final class RepoActionsViewModel` — `isBookmarked: Bool?`, `actionError: String?`, `notice: String?`, `working: Bool`, `func loadBookmarkState() async`, `func setBookmarked(_:) async`, `func watch() async`, `func unwatch() async`, `func fork(named:) async -> ForkResult?`
77
78Behaviour, each pinned by a test:
791. `repo bookmarks` takes **no repository argument** — argv is exactly `["repo", "bookmarks"]`. Passing the path would be a usage error.
802. `isBookmarked` is `Bool?`: `nil` until known. It is derived by testing membership of the `repo bookmarks` result, and a failed load leaves it `nil` rather than `false` — "we don't know" and "not bookmarked" are different, and the UI must not claim the latter when it means the former. This is the same three-state lesson MRs 4 and 5 each had to learn.
813. `setBookmarked(true)` sends `repo bookmark`; `setBookmarked(false)` sends `repo unbookmark`. Two commands, not a flag.
824. `watch()` and `unwatch()` send their commands and report the result. **They do not attempt to track state** — nothing reports it back, and inventing a local guess would show the user something the server never said.
835. `fork(named:)` sends `["repo", "fork", repoPath]`, appending `--name <n>` only when a name is given, and returns the decoded `ForkResult` so the caller can navigate to the new repository.
846. A refusal surfaces into `actionError` and does not clear a prior success `notice` misleadingly.

250- [ ] **Step 2: Run to verify failure.**
251- [ ] **Step 3: Implement.** Copy `perform(argv:)` from `RepoSettingsViewModel` for the void writes; `fork` needs `client.run(_:as:)` since it decodes a result. Reuse `RepoSummary` for the bookmarks listing — I checked the live response, `{path, description, visibility, bookmarks}`, and `RepoSummary` decodes it directly (the extra `bookmarks` count is ignored, as Swift's `Decodable` ignores unknown keys). Do not write a new model.
252- [ ] **Step 4: Run the tests.**
253- [ ] **Step 5: Commit** — `git commit -m "Fork, watch, mute and bookmark a repository"`
254

256
257### Task 2: The actions on the repository screen
258
259**Files:** Modify `gitbay/Views/Repos/RepoView.swift`
260
261No unit tests — UI.
262
263Put all five in the repository screen's toolbar menu, beside the existing pin and archive actions. Study how those are presented and match them.
264
265**Each of the three rows gets the treatment its readable state allows:**
266
267- **Bookmark** — a real toggle, because the state is derivable. While `isBookmarked` is `nil` the control must not claim either state: show it disabled or as a spinner, never as "not bookmarked". Load the state with `.task`.
268- **Watch / Mute** — **two separate actions, not a toggle.** Nothing reports which one is current, so a toggle would be lying. Say what each does rather than implying a state: "Watch this repository" and "Mute this repository". A brief caption noting that the current setting is not shown is honest and cheap; krz/gitbay#178 tracks fixing it properly.
269- **Fork** — an action that prompts for an optional name, then navigates to the new repository on success using `RepoRoute.repo(result.path)`. On refusal, surface the server's message: "already exists" is the common one and the user needs to read it.
270
271`RepoView` already surfaces `actionError`-style messages for pin and archive — reuse that, do not add a second notice mechanism.
272
273- [ ] **Step 1: Bookmark toggle with its unknown state**
274- [ ] **Step 2: Watch and Mute as two actions**
275- [ ] **Step 3: Fork with an optional name and navigation on success**
276- [ ] **Step 4: Build and run the full suite.** No drop from 297.
277- [ ] **Step 5: Commit** — `git commit -m "Repository actions in the repo menu"`
278
279---
280
281### Task 3: Flip three parity rows and open the merge request
282
283- [ ] **Step 1:** In the Repositories table set `fork`, `watch, mute` and `bookmark, bookmark list` to `yes` for iOS. Touch no other row.
284
285Land it via a worktree off `origin/main` in `krz/gitbay`, merged `--strategy ff`. That repo requires signed commits, so squash and rebase merges are refused, and its working tree usually holds unrelated work — never switch its branch. **Read the merge request number back from `mr create`'s output rather than assuming it.**
286
287- [ ] **Step 2:** Run the full suite; record the real number.
288- [ ] **Step 3:** Open the merge request, noting that watch and mute ship stateless and why.
289

292## Notes for whoever executes this
293
294**`repo bookmarks` is plural and takes no argument.** Not `repo bookmark list`, and not `repo bookmarks <owner/name>`.
295
296**Do not invent state the server does not report.** Watch and mute have no readable state; a toggle would show the user something the server never said. Two actions is the honest rendering, and krz/gitbay#178 tracks the fix.
297
298**`nil` is not `false` for the bookmark state.** A failed listing means unknown, and drawing "not bookmarked" would be a claim the app cannot support.
299
300**`fork_of` is not on `repo show`.** Do not try to display "forked from X" for an existing repository; it is only on `repo fork`'s own response, which is why the fork action returns it.
