Fixes #623.

Lifecycle v2 automatic left outer loops are clamped to the renderer inset so routes cannot use negative x coordinates. Authored geometry and v1 behavior remain unchanged.

Tests: node --test test/lifecycle-v2-layout.test.mjs --test-name-pattern outer loops (17/17 passed).

Generated artifacts: �rchify.zip was regenerated from the changed source with Node 22.

📝 Summary

Reviewed base 68b77b7 and head 65ea67e. Lifecycle v2 automatic left outer loops now stay inside the grid, with distinct tracks; the regression test checks all six edges and route bounds. The author reports 17/17 focused tests passed and regenerated archify.zip with Node 22. The linked issue’s overflow evidence is from revision 922c1cad, not validation of this head. At the checked revision, the observed CodeRabbit check was pending. Browser appearance remains unverified. The PR reports no change to authored geometry or v1 behavior.

Walkthrough

Left-side automatic outer-loop tracks now start at a nonnegative x-coordinate and advance by CORRIDOR_SPACING. Right-side loop placement is unchanged. A lifecycle v2 rendering test checks that six edges render, route points stay within the SVG viewBox, and left-directed loops use distinct tracks.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~8 minutes

Severity of issue fixed: Medium

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 65ea6

Some nested automatic left-loop routes can cross another route’s horizontal leg while remaining within the canvas. This is a bounded routing issue; reverse the track order and cover nesting in the regression test.

  • observed — archify (service) was modified; 2 changed files map to changed impact.

Before / after behavior

  • observed — Modified behavior in archify/renderers/lifecycle/grid-routing.mjs: Left-side outer loops are clamped to x-coordinate 28 when the previous grid-relative placement would be smaller; otherwise, their prior spacing formula remains. Right-side loop placement is unchanged.
  • observed — Modified behavior in archify/test/lifecycle-v2-layout.test.mjs: Adds a rendering test for reciprocal outer-loop transitions across stacked lanes; it checks that routes exist and each composition point has coordinates between zero and the SVG viewBox width and height, inclusive.

Full details: Validation Evidence

Explanation

Evidence coverage is incomplete for head 65ea67e (base 68b77b7). Observed evidence: the diff changes automatic left-loop track placement, adds a regression with six edge IDs, in-canvas point checks, and distinct-track checks, and the committed archive contains the exact current grid-routing source. The author reports node --test ... --test-name-pattern outer loops as 17/17 and reports a Node 22 archive rebuild, but no run receipt or CI link is provided. The affected file defines 17 generated tests while only one test name matches outer loops, so the reported filtered result is not verifiable as stated. The filtered run also does not cover the existing v1 and authored-side compatibility tests. The current left-loop code sorts shortest-to-longest and assigns increasing x values; on the left, this places longer nested loops closer to the grid, contrary to its nesting comment. The added test checks distinct x values but not nesting order, so the latest review finding remains an uncovered behavior risk. This is visible renderer geometry. The PR provides no comparable browser or perceptual evidence; the linked issue explicitly says that review was not completed. Static SVG point checks do not establish browser appearance. Archive contents are fresh at the source-file level, but canonical Node 22/zlib byte freshness was not observed.

Resolution

On head 65ea67e, either correct the left-loop nesting order or document and test the intended order; extend the regression to assert nesting order and all relevant loop tracks. Run the complete affected lifecycle test file, including v1 and authored-geometry compatibility cases, and record the result from the final head. Run the canonical archive freshness check with official Node 22 and the required zlib version, then record its result. Provide comparable base/head rendering evidence and an automated browser or visual check for the visible geometry, with the perceptual-review status stated separately.

Refreshed the canonical archive in 1fb8e80 after rebasing onto current dev; the lifecycle outer-loop bounds regression remains covered by the focused 17-test suite.

Addressed the review gap in commits 09fc952 and 65ea67e. The regression now asserts all six expected edge IDs and verifies distinct left outer-loop tracks remain inside the automatic canvas. Focused lifecycle tests pass 17/17, and archify.zip was regenerated with Node 22.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Preserve the nesting order of left loops.

The loops are sorted from shortest span to longest, but this expression gives later loops larger x-coordinates. On the left, larger x-coordinates are closer to the grid. When loop spans are nested, the longer route can cross the shorter route’s horizontal legs. Reverse the index for left-side tracks, and extend the regression test to check the nesting order.

728 Closed as obsolete after #738 replaced the lifecycle renderer and removed the targeted v2 grid router. This is excluded from the eight new deliveries. Current v3 group-port alignment is independently tracked in #739 / #760.[1]
