EA2 doesn't expose a generic flow-by-kind list endpoint; flow/processes
is definition-only. Migrated chat to flow.kind=value, so direct listing
needed a new strategy.
- Each user has a deterministic inbox flow.kind=value doc keyed by
email slug. ensureInbox() creates it idempotently on first listThreads.
- createThread links the new thread into BOTH participants' inboxes via
defines edges with role='presentation' (each link is one apply-batch).
- listThreads(userEmail) reads defines edges from the user's inbox key.
No more reliance on source_context regex filtering through the
definition catalogue.
Updated all 3 call sites: Chat.tsx (mount + after-create refresh) and
agentTools.send_chat. 31/31 tests green.
Oracle deferred caveat #2 — chat-on-flow-collection hack — CLOSED.
Previous design used flow.kind=definition + source_context=EA2_CHAT_THREAD
for chat threads and EA2_CHAT_MSG for messages, then filtered them out of
hub/wizard surfaces via a NON_BUSINESS_SOURCE_CONTEXTS exclusion. That
was containment, not a clean model.
Verified EA2 contract: flow.kind='value' is a valid enum value (probed
against ea2.baseline.svc — kind=value returns 200, kind=conversation/
thread/message/channel/note all return 400 schema violation).
- Thread: flow.kind=value, source_context=CANVAS_CHAT_THREAD
- Message: flow.kind=value, source_context=CANVAS_CHAT_MSG
- Linked via defines edges (already validated in round 2)
Because curatedPublishedFlows already requires kind='definition', chat
docs are now invisible to business surfaces by SCHEMA, not by source_
context regex filter. The filter is kept as defence-in-depth (+ legacy
docs created during round 2 still need to be filtered out).
Tried data collection first; it requires relates(role=sourced_from) edge
to an sdx_connections handle per the P19 invariant — wrong model for
chat, so flow.kind=value is the right home.
process-definitions/{key}/graph filters to published process definitions
and returns empty for chat-thread flows, so the second persona saw no
message bodies. The raw defines edge endpoint returns the link correctly.
New Chat scene at the Chat top-bar tab. Threads and messages are stored
as flow docs (kind=definition, source_context=EA2_CHAT_THREAD / _MSG)
linked by defines edges with role=next — same proven contract as wizard
steps. Persona directory lets the signed-in operator open a thread with
the CEO / HR / IT personas.
- src/lib/chatApi.ts: listThreads / createThread / listMessages / sendMessage
- src/scenes/Chat.tsx: sidebar (threads + new-thread picker) + main pane
(header, bubbles, composer with Enter-to-send / Shift-Enter newline)
- src/index.css: chat-scene grid + bubble + composer styles
- src/App.tsx: Chat tab + scene route
