Summary

The admin-token dialog painted an empty red error notice the moment it opened, before anything was submitted (#3483).

The cause is a CSS cascade defect, not a validation false-positive. The dialog mounts its notice up front and hides it with the hidden attribute until a token is actually rejected, but [hidden] { display: none } is a user-agent rule and .notice { display: flex } is an author rule. Author origin wins; specificity never gets a vote. The empty .notice-err element kept its red border and padding and rendered as a bare red bar.

This repository already hit the identical trap in the combos workspace, where a plain display: flex left both tab panels on screen at once, and fixed it by scoping the display to :not([hidden]). This change applies the same idiom to .notice, .notice-warn (used on its own in several places), and the three-class .startup-runtime-notice rule — that last one would have outranked a .notice[hidden] fix.

The dialog also clears the notice text alongside the hidden flag now, so "hidden" and "empty" cannot drift apart.

before and after

Verification

  • bun run typecheck — clean
  • bun run lint:gui — clean
  • cd gui && bun test — 1366 pass, 0 fail (220 files)
  • bun test tests/gui-static.test.ts tests/server-management-auth.test.ts tests/server-auth.test.ts — 143 pass, 0 fail
  • bun run privacy:scan — passed

Two regressions were added, because the DOM half alone cannot catch this: happy-dom applies no author stylesheet and does no layout, so alert.hidden === true passes while a real browser paints the box. The second test reads the stylesheet and fails any .notice rule that sets display without the guard. Reverting the CSS guard was verified to turn it red, then restored.

Checklist

  • Focused tests cover the change
  • Docs updated where user-facing behavior changed (n/a — visual defect only; the sibling PR covers docs)
  • No credential, token, or request-body logging introduced
  • Targets dev

Closes #3483

The dialog mounts its validation notice up front and hides it with the `hidden`
attribute until a token is actually rejected. `[hidden] { display: none }` is a
USER-AGENT rule, so the author `display: flex` on `.notice` outranked it by
origin and the empty `.notice-err` box painted its red border and padding the
moment the dialog opened.

Specificity never got a vote, which is why this reads like a validation
false-positive rather than a cascade defect. The repository already hit the same
trap once and fixed it the same way in the combos workspace panels
(`gui/src/styles-combos-workspace.css`): scope the display to `:not([hidden])`
so the UA rule wins again. `.notice-warn` and the startup-runtime notice get the
same guard — `.notice-warn` is used on its own, and the three-class startup rule
would outrank a `.notice[hidden]` fix.

The dialog also clears the notice text alongside the flag now, so "hidden" and
"empty" cannot drift apart.

Two regressions, because the DOM half alone cannot catch this: happy-dom applies
no author stylesheet and does no layout, so `alert.hidden === true` passes while
a real browser paints the box. The second test reads the stylesheet and fails any
`.notice` rule that sets `display` without the guard; reverting the CSS was
verified to turn it red.

Closes #3483

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The admin token dialog now clears validation text when hidden, shows errors only after failed verification, restores focus on verification failures, and prevents hidden notice elements from being rendered as empty flex boxes. Tests cover dialog state and notice selectors.

Changes

Admin token notice behavior

Layer / File(s) Summary
Validation state handling
gui/src/admin-token-dialog.ts, gui/tests/admin-token-dialog.test.ts
The dialog uses setValidationError to update error text and visibility together. Failed verification displays the error and focuses the password field. Tests verify the initial hidden state, rejected-token state, and cancel result.
Hidden notice rendering
gui/src/styles.css, gui/tests/admin-token-dialog.test.ts
Notice rules apply display: flex only when [hidden] is absent. Tests verify the guarded selectors and display declarations.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to d9a1a

The dialog now hides empty validation notices and returns focus to the token field after verification errors. The behavior is low risk, but focus restoration should be covered by a regression assertion before relying on it long term.

리뷰 · 우선순위 60 / 80

이 PR은 대시보드 관리자 토큰 대화상자가 열리자마자, 아직 아무 것도 제출하지 않았는데도 빈 빨간 에러 박스가 보이는 버그(#3483)를 고칩니다. 원인은 검증 로직이 잘못 돌아서가 아니라 CSS 우선순위(cascade) 문제입니다. 대화상자는 role="alert" 자리를 미리 만들어 두고 hidden 속성으로 가리는데, 브라우저 기본 규칙인 [hidden] { display: none }은 사용자 에이전트(UA) 출처이고, 지금 devgui/src/styles.css에 있는 .notice { display: flex }는 작성자(author) 출처입니다. 출처가 다르면 특이도(specificity)는 싸우지 못하고 작성자 규칙이 이깁니다. 그래서 hidden이 있어도 빨간 테두리와 패딩이 남은 빈 박스가 그대로 그려집니다.

같은 함정을 이 저장소는 이미 한 번 겪었습니다. 콤보 워크스페이스 탭 패널이 둘 다 동시에 보이던 문제를 gui/src/styles-combos-workspace.css에서 :not([hidden])으로 display를 묶어서 고쳤습니다. 이번 변경은 그 관용구를 .notice, 단독으로도 쓰이는 .notice-warn, 그리고 세 클래스가 겹쳐 .notice[hidden]보다 특이도가 높은 .notice.notice-warn.startup-runtime-notice에도 같은 방식으로 적용합니다. TypeScript 쪽에서는 setValidationError로 숨김 플래그와 텍스트를 같이 비워서, “숨김”과 “비어 있음”이 어긋나지 않게 합니다.

현재 dev HEAD는 917d5dc0d(docs priority-65 closeout #3486, package 2.43.0)이고, GUI/auth 쪽 큰 열차와 겹치지 않는 독립 버그픽스입니다. types.ts/config.ts 분할 캠페인과도 무관합니다. 검증 설명대로 happy-dom은 작성자 스타일을 적용하지 않아서 DOM만으로는 재현이 안 되고, 스타일시트에 :not([hidden]) 가드가 있는지 읽는 회귀 테스트가 핵심입니다. before/after 증거 PNG와 테스트 설계가 원인 설명과 잘 맞습니다. 형제 스택은 #3492(로컬에서 토큰 묻지 않기), #3493(토큰 안내 문구/문서)이고, 이 PR이 스택의 바닥입니다.

gui/src/styles.css · .notice - 현재 dev는 여전히 맨 display: flex라 #3483이 그대로입니다. 이 PR의 :not([hidden]) 분리가 맞는 고침입니다.
gui/src/styles.css · .notice-warn / .startup-runtime-notice - 같은 cascade 함정을 같이 막는 확장이 타당합니다. 세 클래스 규칙은 .notice[hidden]만 고치면 다시 이길 수 있어서 같이 건드린 이유가 분명합니다.
gui/src/admin-token-dialog.ts · setValidationError - 숨김과 텍스트를 한 함수로 묶은 건 좋습니다. 초기 마운트 직후에도 텍스트가 비어 있는지 한 번 더 보장합니다.
gui/tests/admin-token-dialog.test.ts · CSS 회귀 - 스타일시트 문자열을 읽어 display가 있는 .notice 규칙에 가드가 있는지 검사하는 방식이 combos 쪽 선례와 같고, happy-dom 한계를 정직하게 우회합니다.

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

너의 추천
dev에 바로 병합해도 됩니다. 범위가 작고 원인·고침·회귀가 한 줄로 맞고, types/config 분할과도 충돌하지 않습니다. 병합 후 #3483을 닫고, 이어서 스택 위 #3492를 dev로 리타깃하세요.

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add a regression assertion for focus restoration.

After the rejected result, assert that the password input is focused. The test currently checks only the alert state, so a future regression could leave keyboard focus elsewhere while the test still passes.

Suggested assertion
   expect(alert.hidden).toBe(false);
   expect(alert.textContent).toContain("rejected");
+  expect(document.activeElement).toBe(password);

As per path instructions, preserve accessibility: keyboard operation, labels, focus behavior, semantic controls, and readable validation errors.

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

Reviewed exact head d9a1afc. The CSS cascade diagnosis is correct, all author-level display rules for the affected notice variants are now guarded by :not([hidden]), the dialog keeps hidden/text state synchronized, the screenshot demonstrates the visual change, and the stylesheet regression is non-vacuous for the browser behavior happy-dom cannot render. Exact-head cross-platform CI and CodeRabbit are green. The suggested password-focus assertion would be useful extra coverage for an already-existing password.focus() behavior, but it is not a blocker for #3483. Approved; parent of the #3492/#3493 stack.
