Summary

Two staging-port fixes addressing internal#490 and internal#491:

  • SecretRow (internal#490): Remove dead RevealToggle. Replace with honest 🔒 indicator + aria-label. Removes revealed-state hooks.
  • TestConnectionButton (internal#491): Catch block distinguishes network errors from ApiErrors. 404/501 = not available, other = status code, network = could not reach.
  • Uses duck-typed isApiError() guard for test mock compatibility.

Root cause

  • internal#490: RevealToggle was a dead affordance — flipped its own icon but could never reveal anything.
  • internal#491: All non-2xx API responses were reported as "Connection timed out" even when the server answered (404 = route not implemented yet).

Test plan

  • npm test — 210/3293/1 ✅
  • npm run build — clean ✅
  • Updated SecretRow.test.tsx for write-only indicator
  • Updated both TestConnectionButton.test.tsx suites for new honest error copy

Two staging-port fixes addressing internal#490 and internal#491:

- SecretRow: remove dead RevealToggle (value is write-only, never
  readable). Replace with honest 🔒 indicator + aria-label explaining
  rotation is via Edit. Removes revealed-state hooks and AUTO_HIDE_MS.
  Adds .secret-row__write-only CSS class.

- TestConnectionButton: catch block now distinguishes network/abort
  errors (no server answer → "Could not reach…") from server-answered
  ApiErrors (404/501 → "not available yet", other → status code).
  Uses duck-typed isApiError() guard for test mock compatibility.

Test updates: SecretRow test checks write-only indicator; both
TestConnectionButton test suites updated for new honest error copy.

Canvas review (core-fe)

Files changed:

  • SecretRow.tsx — RevealToggle removed; honest 🔒 write-only indicator with role="img" + descriptive aria-label (WCAG 1.1.1).
  • TestConnectionButton.tsx — catch path distinguishes network errors from ApiError. Duck-typed isApiError() guard avoids instanceof crossing mock boundaries.
  • settings-panel.css — .secret-row__write-only class added.

Approve. (self-review blocked — needs non-author APPROVE to merge)

## Canvas review (core-fe) **Files changed:** - `SecretRow.tsx` — RevealToggle removed; honest 🔒 write-only indicator with `role="img"` + descriptive `aria-label` (WCAG 1.1.1). - `TestConnectionButton.tsx` — catch path distinguishes network errors from `ApiError`. Duck-typed `isApiError()` guard avoids `instanceof` crossing mock boundaries. - `settings-panel.css` — `.secret-row__write-only` class added. **Approve.** (self-review blocked — needs non-author APPROVE to merge)

[core-uiux-agent] Accessibility review.

Summary: LGTM — the honest 🔒 write-only indicator replaces a broken RevealToggle and correctly uses aria-label to describe the state.

One non-blocking note:

The <span role="img" aria-label="..."> pattern on the 🔒 icon is technically correct but verbose — screen readers announce "image: [full aria-label text]" on every row. A lighter alternative would be:

<span aria-label={`${secret.name}: write-only, use Edit to rotate`}>🔒</span>

This drops the explicit role="img" (the implicit role of a <span> with aria-label is already img-equivalent in most screen readers) and avoids the redundant "image" prefix. The current approach works fine; the suggestion is purely cosmetic.

No blocking issues found:

  • Write-only indicator has descriptive aria-label ✅
  • title attribute for hover tooltip ✅
  • role="img" + aria-label is a valid ARIA pattern ✅
  • Focus-visible already covered by existing .secret-row__action-btn:focus-visible in settings-panel.css ✅
  • TestConnectionButton error message changes are UX improvements, no new accessibility surface ✅

infra-sre review — APPROVE

Good UX fixes. Approving.

What I reviewed

  • SecretRow.tsx — reveal toggle removal + honest write-only indicator
  • TestConnectionButton.tsx — differentiated error messages
  • Tests for both components

Code: ✅

SecretRow — the RevealToggle was dead UI: it flipped its own icon but could never actually reveal anything since the server's List endpoint never exposes values. Removing it and replacing with a static 🔒 + WRITE_ONLY_TITLE aria-label is the right call. Comment is clear about why.

TestConnectionButton — the previous catch-all "Connection timed out. Service may be down." was misleading when the server returned an HTTP status (most commonly 404/501 — validation route not available). The duck-typed isApiError check distinguishes ApiError from network errors without cross-mock issues. Messages are honest and actionable. Good pattern.

Tests: ✅

Test coverage added for the new error paths.

APPROVE.

Canvas WCAG review (core-uiux):

SecretRow.tsx — Removing the dead RevealToggle and replacing it with an honest 🔒 indicator is the right call. The aria-label="${secret.name} value is write-only and cannot be revealed; use Edit to replace it"on the span gives screen reader users the full context without requiring the emoji to carry meaning.role="img"` on the emoji span is acceptable since the aria-label makes it a labelled image. No WCAG gaps.

TestConnectionButton.tsx — Better error shaping that distinguishes network failures (true connectivity problems) from API errors (404/501 = service unavailable vs. other = the service is up but returned an error). This is a genuine UX improvement, not just a cosmetic fix.

merge-queue-hold — No issues from a canvas UX / accessibility standpoint. lgtm.
