Summary

This PR adds the complete feature specification for the Log Recording Service (#71), a core Phase 1 component of the PROV logging implementation. The specification defines the requirements, user scenarios, and acceptance criteria for implementing automatic provenance recording of tool executions.

Changes

  • Updated BACKLOG.md: Changed feat(017): add specification for VS Code hide activities #71 status from "approved" to "specified" and updated the documentation link from docs/ideas/071-log-recording-service.md to specs/071-log-recording-service/spec.md

  • Added spec.md: Comprehensive feature specification covering:

    • 4 prioritized user stories (P1-P4) with independent test criteria and acceptance scenarios
    • 19 functional requirements (FR-001 through FR-019) defining the Log Service behavior
    • Key entities: Log Service module, Log Entry schema, Expanded ToolResult contract, Global Timeline, Activity ID
    • 8 measurable success criteria for validation
    • 8 assumptions clarifying scope and integration points
    • Dependencies on Phase 0 (Add specification for VS Code hide default activities feature #70) and the SRD
    • Clear out-of-scope boundaries (Log Panel, undo/redo split, snapshots, branching, replay)
  • Added requirements.md: Specification quality checklist validating:

    • No implementation details (languages, frameworks, APIs)
    • All requirements are testable and unambiguous
    • Success criteria are measurable and technology-agnostic
    • All acceptance scenarios and edge cases defined
    • Scope clearly bounded with dependencies identified

Notable Details

  • The specification is technology-agnostic at the requirements level while acknowledging TypeScript and Zustand in the Assumptions section (acceptable for a service-layer feature with specific architectural constraints)
  • Edge cases are explicitly addressed: failed executions, zero-feature modifications, rapid succession operations, legacy provenance formats, and partial ToolResult fields
  • Graceful degradation is a core requirement: the Log Service must work with both expanded ToolResult fields (Phase 0) and legacy tool formats
  • Append-only semantics ensure historical integrity: new Log entries are appended without modifying or removing prior entries
  • Future methods are stubbed: tuneEntry, revertTo, revertThis, createSnapshot, branchFrom are reserved for Phases 4-6
  • The specification correctly defers UI concerns (Log Panel) and advanced features (replay, branching) to later phases

This specification is ready for planning and implementation once Phase 0 (#70) is complete.

Defines the Phase 1 PROV logging feature: TypeScript Log Service with
recordToolResult and getTimeline, session-state integration, expanded
ToolResult parsing, and dirty tracking. Part of Epic E02.

https://claude.ai/code/session_01RDwaz7RBQ6uqbQv9fDf1BX
Phase 0: research.md with 8 key design decisions
Phase 1: data-model.md, contracts (LogService + stacService extension),
quickstart.md with implementation order
Phase 2: planning post and LinkedIn summary

Key decisions: Log Service in session-state package, Python handles
output feature provenance, TypeScript handles input features,
stacService.appendProvenance() for persistence, read-time timeline
assembly.

https://claude.ai/code/session_01RDwaz7RBQ6uqbQv9fDf1BX
37 tasks across 7 phases: Setup, Foundation, US1 (recording),
US2 (timeline), US3 (expanded parsing), US4 (integration), Polish.
MVP path: Phases 1-3 deliver core recording capability.

https://claude.ai/code/session_01RDwaz7RBQ6uqbQv9fDf1BX
Add TypeScript Log Service module (session-state/src/log/) with:
- recordToolResult(): creates PROV-aligned Log entries for input features
- getTimeline(): assembles deduplicated, sorted timeline from provenance
- buildLogEntry(): pure entry construction with ISO duration conversion
- assembleTimeline(): collects and deduplicates across features

Integration points:
- stacService: appendProvenance() and loadGeoJsonForItem() for disk I/O
- calcService: parse expanded MCP annotations (toolVersion, parameters, etc.)
- executeTool: route successful ToolResults through Log Service
- ToolExecutionResult: expanded with Phase 0 fields (all optional)

Tests: 43 new tests (19 entry builder + 8 timeline + 12 service + 4 integration)
All 335 tests pass (309 unit + 26 integration), zero regressions.

https://claude.ai/code/session_01RDwaz7RBQ6uqbQv9fDf1BX
- Test summary: 335 tests pass (43 new, zero regressions)
- Usage example with recordToolResult + getTimeline roundtrip
- Sample Log entry and timeline JSON artifacts
- Shipped blog post and LinkedIn summary
- All T001-T036 tasks marked complete in tasks.md

https://claude.ai/code/session_01RDwaz7RBQ6uqbQv9fDf1BX
- Add curly braces to single-line if statements
- Remove unnecessary `as unknown` type assertion
- Use strict equality checks instead of `==`

https://claude.ai/code/session_01RDwaz7RBQ6uqbQv9fDf1BX
- Widen ToolResultForLog.features to accept unknown[] instead of
  Record<string, unknown>[] (fixes SafeFeatureCollection assignability)
- Use double-cast (as unknown as Record) for SafeFeature → Record
  conversions in appendProvenance()
- Add non-null assertion after properties guard to fix TS18047
- Use local `props` variable to avoid repeated null checks
