Metadata

Branch: fix/invariant-cli-rich-panel-output
Commit Message: fix(cli): use rich Panel format for invariant add/remove output
Milestone: Backlog (no milestone — see backlog note below)
Parent Epic: #394

Backlog note: This issue was discovered during autonomous operation
on milestone v3.3.0. It does not block milestone completion and has been
placed in the backlog for human review and future milestone assignment.

Background and Context

The agents invariant add and agents invariant remove CLI commands output plain text instead of the spec-required rich bordered panel format. All other CLI commands (e.g., action.py, plan.py, project.py) correctly use from rich.panel import Panel — invariant.py does not import Panel at all.

Current Behavior

agents invariant add outputs:

Invariant added: <id>
  Text:   <text>
  Scope:  <scope>
  Source: <source>

agents invariant remove outputs:

Invariant removed: <id>

No bordered panel, no ✓ OK confirmation line, no scope-specific context fields (e.g., Project:, Plan:, Action: labels).

Expected Behavior (from spec §17792-17856 and §18108-18136)

agents invariant add --global "All public APIs must maintain backward compatibility" should produce:

╭─ Invariant Added ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮
│ Invariant: All public APIs must maintain backward compatibility        │
│ Scope: global                                                          │
│ ID: inv_01HXM9A1B                                                      │
╰────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯

✓ OK Invariant added

agents invariant remove inv_01HXM9A1C should produce:

╭─ Invariant Removed ──────────────────────────────────────────────╮
│ Removed: Payment processing must be idempotent                   │
│ Scope: global                                                    │
│ ID: inv_01HXM9A1C                                                │
╰──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯

✓ OK Invariant removed

Code Location

src/cleveragents/cli/commands/invariant.py lines 140–143 (add command rich output)
src/cleveragents/cli/commands/invariant.py line 275 (remove command rich output)
Other CLI commands (e.g., action.py, plan.py, project.py) correctly use from rich.panel import Panel — invariant.py does not import Panel at all.

Steps to Reproduce

Run agents invariant add --global "test invariant"
Observe output is plain text, not a bordered panel

Impact

Visual inconsistency with all other CLI commands. The spec explicitly shows the panel format as the expected rich output.

Subtasks

Import Panel from rich.panel in invariant.py
Refactor add command output (lines 140–143) to use a rich Panel with Invariant, Scope, ID fields and a ✓ OK Invariant added confirmation line
Refactor remove command output (line 275) to use a rich Panel with Removed, Scope, ID fields and a ✓ OK Invariant removed confirmation line
Add scope-specific context fields (e.g., Project:, Plan:, Action:) where applicable, matching spec §17792-17856
Write or update unit tests to assert panel output format for add and remove commands

Definition of Done

agents invariant add produces a rich bordered panel matching the spec format
agents invariant remove produces a rich bordered panel matching the spec format
Output is visually consistent with all other CLI commands
All subtasks completed
All nox stages pass
Coverage >= 97%

State: Verified
Priority: Low — agents invariant add/remove output uses plain text instead of spec-required rich Panel format. Visual inconsistency with other CLI commands.
Milestone: v3.7.0
Story Points: 2 — S — Import Panel, refactor output formatting for add and remove commands. Straightforward template change.
MoSCoW: Could Have — Pure output formatting polish. The commands work correctly; the output just doesn't match the spec's visual format. Can be deferred without functional impact.
Parent Epic: #394 (dependency link already exists)
