// automation/AutomationBuilder.tsx β the BUILDER (owner item 3b, contracts
// C1/C2/C4, ruling R1: "exact layout, Loopable skin").
//
// THE ANATOMY IS AIRTABLE'S, 1:1, and it is the owner's reference (images 1-9):
// a centre column of TRIGGER β ACTIONS with a spine down the left carrying each
// step's status chip, dashed add-boxes at the end of each section, and a
// Properties panel on the right whose sections are Trigger details /
// Configuration / Test step. Every colour, size and weight is OURS (R1,
// DESIGN.md) β no Airtable blue, no caps micro-labels (R6: "TRIGGER" is
// "Trigger" here, and de-capping takes the letter-spacing with it).
//
// β IT RENDERS SYNCHRONOUSLY FROM WHAT IT WAS HANDED (C14 leg 1). No fetch, no
// effect, no second frame: the trigger comes from `automation.trigger`, the
// actions from `automation.flow`, the machine steps from `automation.graph` β
// all three already on the list payload the rail used to draw the row you
// clicked. THIS IS THE GHOST FIX. The old detail rendered Steps, then swapped to
// the Board when `/board` answered, so switching automations painted the
// PREVIOUS one's shape inside the new one's frame for as long as a fetch takes.
// A view that cannot be in two shapes cannot show you the wrong one.
//
// β NO CLIENT UNION OVER A SERVER VOCABULARY, anywhere. Trigger keys, action
// kinds, comparison operators, ending modes, review deciders and every ceiling
// ride `GET /automations`. What this file owns is pixels and wording.
//
// WHAT PERSISTS WHEN. A discrete choice writes immediately β picking a trigger,
// adding an action, flipping a switch β because a control you have to remember
// to Save is not a control (R9). FREE TEXT does not: a value, a prompt or a name
// commits on BLUR, or every keystroke would PATCH a half-typed condition and the
// server would refuse most of them out loud (the cron-string precedent in
// AutomationTrigger).

*
* β THE DATABASE PICKER EXISTED AND WAS UNREACHABLE FOR THE ONE TRIGGER THAT NEEDS IT MOST,
* and the two decisions that combined to hide it were each locally right:
* 1. `clean_trigger` STORES NOTHING for `manual` and `schedule` (`:8389`) β "storing a no-op
* trigger would be a second copy of that fact". So a manual automation holds `trigger:
* null` forever, by design.
* 2. `chosen` is therefore FALSE for it (the note above says so explicitly), and W25/R14 hides
* the whole Configuration section until a trigger is `chosen`.
* β The picker `caee549` added for exactly this case sits INSIDE that section, so picking
* Manual could never reveal it. `run_plain` then refused with *"pick one on the trigger, or in
* Properties"* β a sentence naming two doors while rendering neither. MEASURED in the live
* nurilab store: `auto_2` "Enrichment test", `kind:'plain'`, `trigger:None`,
* `config.targetTable:''`, one `enrich_instagram` action, unrunnable.
*
* β AND THE SCREEN DISAGREED WITH THE STORE, which is why the owner reasonably believed they
* had picked something: `triggerKey` DERIVES `"manual"` when nothing is stored, so the panel
* displays "Manual" over a definition that holds no trigger at all.
*
* β THE FIX IS NOT TO START STORING A MANUAL TRIGGER. The note above already argued that out
* and it is still right β a control whose selection stores nothing bounces back on reload. What
* was wrong is treating "no trigger stored" as "nothing to configure": a `plain` automation
* whose trigger carries no table of its own ALWAYS has one thing to configure, the database its
* steps walk, and that is true in exactly the state where `chosen` is false. So Configuration
* opens for that too β the trigger-specific blocks inside are each keyed off `triggerKey` and
* stay hidden on their own. That widening lives in the Properties panel beside the picker it
* reveals (`needsOwnTable`), not here: `chosen` still means exactly what it says.

MEASURED across the trigger vocabulary: `manual`, `schedule` and `email` carry NO `table`,

Properties picker is gated to `scrape_db` / `field_instagram`, BOTH RETIRED KINDS. So

`run_plain` answered *"no database is bound yet β pick one on the trigger, or in

manual flow β the owner's *"on a schedule, enrich these sets of influencer names"* β was
unbuildable.
β `plain` ONLY, and that is what keeps it from being a second control for one fact. Every
other kind names its database somewhere of its own: an Instagram search through the pinned
Create record (W25/R2 made that action authoritative and `targetTable` follows it), and the
two retired kinds through their own Properties panels. Widening this would put two pickers

β HOW THIS FETCHES (owner item 5, contract C-CFG) β the machine steps' switches and
config bodies, below the trigger's own fields, under ONE sub-heading.
β ONE SECTION PER PANEL, NOT PER NODE (`groupByPanel`, and its note is the reason). Four
of `field_instagram`'s nodes share `panel: "capture"` and both of `discover_instagram`'s
share `panel: "find"`, so a section per node would print one body four times and mount the
discovery filter twice against a single `preds` array.
β AND THE SWITCHES ARE THE POINT, not a leftover. R7: Bright Data buys exact counts with
MONEY and Write's switch is the difference between a run that writes rows and one that
reads and reports. They were on the cards this wave deleted, so deleting the cards without
moving them would have retired two shipped controls silently. Each still posts to the
node-toggle door β the server decides what a switch means, this only says which node.
`plain` automations have no machine nodes at all, so the whole section is absent for them
rather than an empty heading (R6 makes that the common case from now on).
β WAVE 26 Β· ITEM 17 / R15 β THE PROSE IS GONE AND THE SWITCHES STAYED, which is the whole
ruling. The owner quoted this section back verbatim β *"How this fetches / Find profiles /
Bio contains skincare⦠/ Collect results / Takes about 20 minutes / Up to 10 profiles ·
about $0.025"* β and asked for it gone. Every line of that quote is server-composed
(`automation_engine.graph`), and it maps EXACTLY onto three renderers, which is why the
deletion could be surgical rather than a section removal:
Β· `n.subtitle` -> "Bio contains skincareβ¦" and "Takes about 20 minutes" (`:5030`, `:5036`)
Β· `g.nodes[0].detail` -> "Up to 10 profiles Β· about $0.025" (`:5032`) β the ESTIMATE LINE
Β· `n.title`/`<h3>` -> "How this fetches", "Find profiles", "Collect results" β KEPT
β THE HEADING WAS A SYMPTOM, NOT THE SUBJECT. Deleting the section would have retired the
Bright Data MONEY switch and the write node's DRY RUN with it β the two controls that were
moved here precisely so deleting the cards would not retire them silently. They are the
`n.toggle` block below and they are untouched.
β `AutomationFind`'s "What it costs" estimate is NOT this line and is NOT in scope: it is
the ANSWER to a button a person pressed, and it is the only surface carrying D-23's
SPEC-basis caveat. The read-only paragraph went; the control did not.

pieces, asking the user to choose a VENDOR STRATEGY.
β R5 RETIRED THE QUESTION, not just the control. Enrichment routes per capability to
the paid providers and reports blocked on a refusal; there is no thin anonymous row to
fall back to, so "which source" and "stop if it fails" no longer have answers a person
could give. `tier` and `noFallback` are accepted-and-ignored in stored configs (C2,

why this panel simply stops writing them rather than migrating anything.
β THE ROWS BELOW ARE A TRANSFORM, NOT AN ADDITION, and that distinction is the whole
defect risk in this change. `postMetrics` and `commentMetrics` ALREADY had checkboxes

Building three NEW rows and leaving those would have put TWO controls on each key β
which compiles, renders, and satisfies any check asking whether a Post-data switch
exists. The old pair is deleted; these carry their keys.

ββ W29-T09 (owner item 11: *"the last 12 reels"*) β THE ONLY DOOR TO `config.postGroups`.
The server side has been whole since wave 28 β `clean_post_groups` validates it, the
enrich runner applies it β and `postGroups` had **zero occurrences** anywhere in
`web/src`, so NO USER COULD ASK FOR REELS-ONLY AT ALL. That is why this is a blocker for
the reels routing work and not a nicety: those tickets' negative controls need a config
a person can actually produce.
β THE KEYS ARE THE SERVER'S AND SO ARE THE WORDS. `vocab.postTypes` carries both; a
client that translated `video` into "Reels" locally would be a second copy of a
vocabulary `clean_post_groups` refuses deviations from. Absent vocabulary renders
NOTHING rather than three guessed names.
β ABSENT IS OFF, AND OFF IS THE DEFAULT FOREVER. An enrich action stored before this
control carries no `postGroups`, and the runner returns the post list unchanged when the
key is missing β so unchecking every box must DELETE the key, never store `[]`-with-
meaning or a group of zero. Deleting it is what keeps an old automation capturing
exactly what it always captured.
β ONE WRITER FOR ONE KEY [W-12]. This is the only control in `web/src` that writes
`postGroups`; the `maxPosts` box above writes `maxPosts` and nothing else. The two are
related only in that a group cannot keep more posts than the pull captures β which is
the server's rule, printed here rather than re-implemented.

β WAVE 26 Β· ITEM 5 β OWNER RULINGS R9 AND R10, and they are two different fixes to one
symptom (*"the condition on action act_1 names no field"*).
R9 β A `create_record` HAS NO CONDITIONS AT ALL. The owner corrected their own first
answer mid-grill: *"if it is Create Record, I don't think you can even add Conditions at
all. That's not how the Create Record works."* Airtable agrees and so does the shape:
every other action operates ON the record the flow is walking, so "run this only when
<that record> β¦" is a question about something that exists. Create record MAKES one.
There is nothing to test yet β which is why the picker on this panel was always empty and
why every condition saved against it named no field.
β THE SERVER DROPS A STORED `when` RATHER THAN REFUSING IT (C4), and this removal is what
makes that silent drop defensible: `clean_actions` has no disclosure channel, so the drop
is only safe while there is no control whose value could appear to be ignored. Deleting
the editor and dropping the value are ONE change in two files β if this editor ever comes
back for `create_record`, the drop becomes silent data loss (booked by A).
R10 β NO WALKING RECORD β A SENTENCE, NEVER AN EMPTY PICKER. A picker with no options
reads as "this database has no columns", and anything saved through it names no field,
which is the refusal the owner kept meeting. The sentence points at the surface that CAN
answer: the trigger.
β The test is `walkTable`, not `walkFields.length` β see the prop's own note. A flow
walking a database that genuinely has no columns yet keeps its (empty) picker, because
for that flow the picker is the right control and adding a column is the fix.
