Bug Report

Feature Area: TUI — Settings Screen & Session Management Screen (v3.7.0)
Severity: Critical — two required modal screens are completely absent
Discovered by: UAT Testing (uat-pool-1, worker: tui-implementation)


What Was Tested

Code analysis of src/cleveragents/tui/screens/ directory and src/cleveragents/tui/app.py against the TUI specification (§30172-30229).

Expected Behavior (from spec §30172-30229)

Sessions Screen (ctrl+s):

  • Modal overlay showing all active and saved sessions
  • Active Sessions section: currently open tabs with state indicators, persona, actor, last prompt preview
  • Saved Sessions section: previously persisted sessions from SQLite with prompt count and last-used timestamp
  • Keyboard bindings: enter Switch, ctrl+r Resume saved, ctrl+n New, d Delete, r Rename, esc Back

Settings Screen (F2 or ctrl+,):

  • Modal overlay with search-driven navigation through all TUI settings
  • UI section: Theme (default: dracula), Column width, Scrollbar, Flash duration, Auto-copy on select
  • Notifications section: Desktop notifications, Blink terminal title, Sound effects
  • Settings auto-saved on esc
  • Search box filters settings by keyword

Actual Behavior

The screens/ directory (src/cleveragents/tui/screens/) contains only __pycache__ — no Python files exist:

src/cleveragents/tui/screens/
└── __pycache__/

Neither SettingsScreen nor SessionsScreen exists anywhere in the codebase. The BINDINGS list in app.py has no ctrl+s or F2/ctrl+, bindings.

The /settings slash command is listed in the catalog (slash_catalog.py:83) but the TuiCommandRouter.handle() method does not handle it — it falls through to "Unknown command: /settings".

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Check src/cleveragents/tui/screens/ — directory is empty (only __pycache__)
  2. Search: grep -r "SettingsScreen\|SessionsScreen" src/cleveragents/ → no results
  3. Check BINDINGS in app.py — no ctrl+s or F2 bindings
  4. Run /settings in TUI → returns "Unknown command: /settings"

Impact

Without these screens:

  • Users cannot configure TUI settings (theme, notifications, etc.)
  • Users cannot view or manage their sessions
  • The /settings slash command is non-functional
  • ctrl+s and F2 keyboard shortcuts do nothing

This blocks the v3.7.0 milestone acceptance criteria.

Code Location

  • src/cleveragents/tui/screens/ — empty, needs settings.py and sessions.py
  • src/cleveragents/tui/app.py:92-96 — missing F2, ctrl+,, ctrl+s bindings
  • src/cleveragents/tui/commands.py:handle() — missing /settings handler

Definition of Done

  • SessionsScreen modal overlay in src/cleveragents/tui/screens/sessions.py
  • SettingsScreen modal overlay in src/cleveragents/tui/screens/settings.py
  • ctrl+s binding opens SessionsScreen
  • F2 and ctrl+, bindings open SettingsScreen
  • Settings screen has search box, UI section, Notifications section
  • Settings auto-saved on esc
  • Sessions screen shows active + saved sessions
  • /settings slash command opens SettingsScreen

Issue triaged by project owner:

  • State: Verified
  • Priority: High — (adjusting from Critical) SettingsScreen and SessionsScreen are completely absent from the TUI, but v3.7.0 has no deadline and the project focus is on M1-M6 milestones first. These are real missing features but not blocking current milestone delivery.
  • Milestone: v3.7.0 — TUI milestone
  • Story Points: 8 — XL — implementing two full modal screens with keyboard bindings, SQLite integration, search, and settings persistence is substantial work
  • MoSCoW: Must Have — these screens are explicitly required by the v3.7.0 TUI specification and are core TUI functionality. Without them, the TUI is incomplete.
  • Parent Epic: Needs linking to the TUI epic

Triage Rationale: The screens directory is completely empty — this is a genuine missing feature, not a bug. The UAT correctly identifies this as a v3.7.0 gap. Priority adjusted to High (not Critical) because v3.7.0 is not the current focus milestone.

Hierarchical Compliance Fix: This issue was detected as an orphan (no parent Epic).

Solution: Linked to Epic #4963 (TUI Core Layout & Navigation — MainScreen, Sidebar, Hotkeys) as SettingsScreen and SessionsScreen are part of the TUI core layout scope.

Hierarchy: Issue #5338 → Epic #4963 → Legendary #4946
