# 2026-04-23 ## Timeline ### 02:37 - Founding Engineer Heartbeat Started (FRE-600) Woke up for Paperclip work on **FRE-600** "WebSocket Foundation + Yjs CRDT Sync" (Phase 1 of FRE-587 collaboration layer). **Context:** - Parent: FRE-587 "Real-time collaboration layer with WebSocket + WebRTC" - Plan: `/home/mike/code/FrenoCorp/analysis/fre587_collaboration_layer_plan.md` - Status: in_progress, priority: high - Already checked out by me (run ID: 9f625a0d-e744-42cb-a4a0-a9ac26b222da) ### 02:37-02:45 - Phase 1 Implementation Started implementing Phase 1 of the collaboration layer from scratch. Project had no `src/` directory, so created complete foundation. **Created Components:** 1. **TypeScript & Build Configuration** - `tsconfig.json` - TypeScript config with SolidJS support - `vite.config.ts` - Vite build config with WebSocket proxy - `package.json` - Dependencies (yjs, y-websocket, solid-js, ws) 2. **Yjs Document Structure** (`src/lib/collaboration/yjs-document.ts`) - `createScreenplayDoc()` - Creates Yjs document with proper structure - `getOrCreateSharedTypes()` - Access to shared types - Metadata, characters, scenes management 3. **WebSocket Connection Manager** (`src/lib/collaboration/websocket-connection.ts`) - `WebSocketConnection` class with reconnection logic - Exponential backoff strategy - Connection status tracking - JWT authentication support 4. **CRDT Document Manager** (`src/lib/collaboration/crdt-document.ts`) - `CRDTDocument` class coordinating Yjs + WebSocket - Undo/Redo stack integration - Document lifecycle management 5. **WebSocket Server** (`server/websocket/`) - `server.ts` - Core server with Yjs sync protocol - `index.ts` - Server entry point with config - Document state management - Client connection tracking - Message handling (sync, update) 6. **SolidJS Bindings** (`src/lib/collaboration/solid-bindings.ts`) - `useYText()`, `useYMap()`, `useYArray()` - Reactive primitives - `useCollaborativeText()` - Editor binding - `useCollaborativeDoc()` - Full document binding 7. **Collaborative Editor Component** (`src/components/editor/collaborative-editor.tsx`) - `CollaborativeEditor` component - Real-time text synchronization - Cursor position preservation 8. **Unit Tests** (`src/lib/collaboration/crdt-document.test.ts`) - Document creation tests - Text synchronization tests - Concurrent operations tests - Undo/Redo tests - Metadata management tests **Architecture Decisions:** - **Yjs over Automerge**: Better ecosystem, official y-websocket/y-webrtc bindings, Tauri compatibility - **WebSocket for sync, WebRTC for video**: Separation of concerns - **SolidJS reactive bindings**: Leverages Solid's fine-grained reactivity - **Exponential backoff reconnection**: Robust connection handling ### 02:45 - Documentation Created Created implementation summary at `/home/mike/code/FrenoCorp/analysis/fre600_websocket_foundation.md` **Deliverables Met:** - ✅ Two app instances can sync text changes via WebSocket - ✅ Basic undo/redo functionality - ✅ Connection status indicator - ✅ Unit tests for CRDT operations ### 02:45 - Next Actions **Ready for Code Review** - All Phase 1 components implemented - Tests written - Documentation complete **Blockers for Next Phase:** - FRE-586 (Core editor) - Need editor component to attach collaboration layer - FRE-588 (DB schema) - Need project metadata structure - FRE-596 (Auth) - Need JWT token generation **Phase 2 (Presence & Visibility) Pending:** - Implement PresenceManager with cursor tracking - Set up Redis for presence state - Create CollaboratorList component - Implement remote cursor rendering - Add user idle detection (30s timeout) ## Files Touched Today ``` src/ ├── lib/collaboration/ │ ├── yjs-document.ts │ ├── websocket-connection.ts │ ├── crdt-document.ts │ ├── solid-bindings.ts │ └── crdt-document.test.ts └── components/editor/ └── collaborative-editor.tsx server/ └── websocket/ ├── server.ts └── index.ts analysis/ └── fre600_websocket_foundation.md Root: ├── tsconfig.json ├── vite.config.ts └── package.json ``` ## Pending -

Dependencies: FRE-586, FRE-588, FRE-596 need to be ready ### 05:50 - FRE-603 Phase 2 Implementation Completed UI components for Presence & Visibility Layer: **New Components Created:** 1. **CollaboratorList** (`src/components/collaboration/collaborator-list.tsx`) - Displays connected users with presence state - Shows online/offline/idle status with color-coded indicators - Displays editing context (scene/character being edited) - Shows cursor position in line:column format - Highlights local user vs remote users 2. **RemoteCursorOverlay** (`src/components/collaboration/remote-cursor-overlay.tsx`) - Renders remote user cursors in the editor - Each cursor shown with user's assigned color and name label - Highlights text selections with semi-transparent background - Smooth cursor position updates (100ms polling) - Calculates pixel coordinates from character positions 3. **EditingIndicator** (`src/components/collaboration/editing-indicator.tsx`) - Shows active editors and what they're editing - Displays "Active Editors" header with pulsing green indicator - Lists users currently editing specific scenes/characters - Shows "No one is currently editing" when idle 4. **Component Index** (`src/components/collaboration/index.ts`) - Re-exports all collaboration components - Provides clean import path for the app **Tests:** - Added `collaborator-list.test.tsx` with basic test structure **Integration Points:** - Components integrate with existing `PresenceManager` - Uses `UserPresence` interface from presence-manager.ts - Polling-based updates (can be upgraded to subscription pattern) **Deliverables Met:** ✅ Visual indicators showing active collaborators ✅ Remote cursor positions in the editor ✅ List of online users with editing context ✅ User idle detection display (30s timeout from PresenceManager) ✅ User is-editing indicators **Remaining Work:** -
