EthanHealy01 55087313b7 Processor UI snags: fat CTAs, real Infrastructure tabs, one surface style (#7497)
Five unrelated snags in the processor (portal) UI, plus fixes they
turned up. No backend changes.

`84 files changed, +892 / −3364`

## Fat CTA buttons

- New `fat` prop on the SUI `Button`: 2.75rem tall, 1.25rem side
padding, 0.75rem corners, semibold. Composes with all four
variants/accents.
- Applied to the page-header CTA on Sources, Documents, Pipelines, Users
(both), Usage, Integrations, Infrastructure — 8 buttons, all in line
with a page title. Nothing else.
- `LandingActions` migrated onto the prop; `.landing-btn-primary` /
`.landing-btn-secondary` and their four `!important`s deleted. The
editor landing CTAs come down 4px with everything else.
- Infrastructure's header CTA is now primary; its "Create key" dropped
to secondary so they stop competing.

## Documents empty state

- "Connect a source" opened the Sources *page*; it now opens the
`SourceModal` connect flow in place, no route change.
- No extra cache wiring: `SourceModal` already invalidates the sources
query.

## Infrastructure tabs

- Only API Keys and Audit Logs hit real endpoints. Deployments,
Security, Models and Storage read mock-only `/v1/infrastructure/*` that
no backend serves.
- Those four are now disabled: native `disabled`, out of the keyboard
tab order, `aria-disabled`, with the view refusing non-enabled keys as a
second guard.
- Real tabs moved leftmost; API Keys is the default; `?tab=` deep links
validated against the enabled set (the home flow's audit link still
works).
- Deleted: 4 tab components, their fetch fns and ~25 dead types, MSW
handlers, fixtures (908 → 253 lines), dead CSS, unused formatters, 240
lines of `en-US` strings. Most of the −3364.
- Page subtitle no longer advertises the disabled tabs.

## Surface consolidation

- New `Surface` primitive (`sui-surface`): fill, hairline, radius, no
shadow. Kept separate from `sui-nav-surface` so nav chrome can diverge
later.
- `Card` composes it and no longer draws its own shadow — this changes
editor Card usages too, by design.
- SUI primitives that are surfaces adopt it: `MetricCard`,
`MetricStrip`, `NodeCard`, `Table`, `Collapsible`, `CodeBlock`.
- The portal gets its own `.portal-surface` with the same three
declarations, applied to 19 elements. A `sui-` class belongs to the
component that emits it, so feature markup doesn't wear one.
- `raised` variant = one subtle shadow for a surface in front of another
surface (the flow diagram's tiles). Same fill as its parent, so nesting
never shifts a region's colour. Dark has its own value.
- Floating chrome (modals, drawers, dropdowns, assistant, sidebar) keeps
its elevation; sunken wells stay sunken.

## Sources list

- Centred "No sources connected yet" empty state removed — it duplicated
the header CTA and pushed the table down the page. The header's "Connect
source" is the single way in.

## Drive-by fixes

- The connect flow rendered unstyled outside the Sources view:
`.portal-conn-picker__*` / `.portal-sources__connection-*` lived in
`views/Sources.css`, which none of the five components rendering them
imported. Moved to `components/sources/connections.css`.
- Three inert custom properties (`--surface-input`, `--color-border-2`,
`--text-default`) are defined nowhere in the codebase —
`.portal-conn-picker__card` had no fill at all as a result.
- Dead CSS removed from `Sources.css` (grep-verified unused): old
expanded-row panel + its keyframes, type-card block.

## Testing

- `task frontend:check` — typecheck, lint (oxlint + 4 theme-lint passes
+ stylelint), format, 238 files / 2063 tests.
- `frontend:typecheck:all` across all 9 tsconfigs.
- `frontend:storybook:a11y:changed` — 119 stories, light and dark, zero
violations, no regressions vs baseline.
- New tests: `Infrastructure.test.tsx` (tab order, default, disabled
behaviour, deep-link filtering) and a Documents test that the
empty-state CTA opens the modal without navigating.
- Merged `origin/main` (#7438 replaced `PipelineHeader` with the new
Create/Edit headers); full suite green at 240 files / 2072 tests after
the merge.

Frontend

All frontend commands are run from the repository root using Task:

  • task frontend:dev — start Vite dev server (localhost:5173)
  • task frontend:build — production build
  • task frontend:test — run tests
  • task frontend:test:watch — run tests in watch mode
  • task frontend:lint — run linting
  • task frontend:typecheck — run TypeScript type checking
  • task frontend:check — run typecheck + lint + test
  • task frontend:install — install npm dependencies

For desktop app development, see the Tauri section below.

Layout

frontend/ is a workspace containing one or more apps. Today it holds the PDF editor under frontend/editor/; new apps (the developer portal, etc.) will sit alongside it as siblings. Shared tooling — package.json, node_modules, .storybook/, oxlint, Prettier — lives at frontend/ so every app installs once and lints with the same config.

Environment Variables

The editor's environment variables live in committed .env files at frontend/editor/:

  • .env — used by all builds (core, proprietary, and as the base for desktop/SaaS)
  • .env.desktop — additional vars loaded in desktop (Tauri) mode
  • .env.saas — additional vars loaded in SaaS mode

These files contain non-secret defaults and are checked into Git, so most dev work needs no further setup.

To override values locally (API keys, machine-specific settings), create an uncommitted sibling editor/.env.local / editor/.env.desktop.local / editor/.env.saas.local. Vite automatically layers these on top of the committed files.

Docker Setup

For Docker deployments and configuration, see the Docker README.

Tauri

All desktop tasks are available via Task. From the root of the repo:

Dev

task desktop:dev

This ensures the JLink runtime and backend JAR exist (skipping if already built), then starts Tauri in dev mode.

Build

task desktop:build

This does a full clean rebuild of the backend JAR and JLink runtime, then builds the Tauri app for production.

Platform-specific dev builds are also available:

task desktop:build:dev           # No bundling
task desktop:build:dev:mac       # macOS .app bundle
task desktop:build:dev:windows   # Windows NSIS installer
task desktop:build:dev:linux     # Linux AppImage

You can also run JLink steps individually:

task desktop:jlink          # Build JAR + create JLink runtime
task desktop:jlink:jar      # Build backend JAR only
task desktop:jlink:runtime  # Create JLink custom JRE only
task desktop:jlink:clean    # Remove JLink artifacts

Clean

task desktop:clean

Removes all desktop build artifacts including JLink runtime, bundled JARs, Cargo build, and dist/build directories.
