Existing Couple Screens

2 October 2026 · branch epic-ai-wedding-planner-existing-couple-chips · app 962bfe022e2 · sweep runs-existing-screens-1002b: 26 runs of v20 and v21 in 15 min · screenshots from the dev app

Each card is one seeded existing couple, as the couple saw the planner. The harness writes the couple's record from a fixture, opens the planner and takes a screenshot of the empty chat. Then set v20 taps the opener and the first chip under the check-in, and set v21 taps a rule chip on the empty chat. Each step has its own screenshot.

Findings

Two sweeps ran on the same build: runs-existing-screens-1002 before a harness fix and runs-existing-screens-1002b after it. The screens on this page come from the second sweep.

No regression. The second sweep passed 26 of 26 runs with no failed claim. Against runs-phase6-after2-1001, no claim got worse. The rail claim moved from 12/14 to 14/14, and all 28 rails in both sweeps match the brief.
Harness fix: a stale search area. The saved login state of e2e01 (9 September) kept Brighton as the search page area. A venue search with no named place uses that area before the record. In the first sweep, couple 4's "find the right venue" tap searched Brighton, not Surrey. The harness reset now clears state-search-searchLocation. Earlier runs on e2e01 carry the same area, but only a search with no named place used it.
Empty bar under an offer. 9 of 77 replies end on a yes/no offer with no chip to accept it. Couple 5's check-in offers to compare the saved venues with an empty bar in 3 of 4 runs. The "narrow down" tap ends on "look up Eastington Park's listing" with no chip in 3 of 4 runs. The brief kept the follow-up bar out of scope (§4.4).
A greeting line on every rail tap. All 23 replies to a rail chip on the empty chat open with "I'm here to help…" or "Welcome…". The claim "A rail-first conversation still greets" asks for this line. The empty-chat title already says "Hey, I'm BB!", and that is why phase 7 was dropped. Decide if the greeting rule still applies to existing couples.
The year question after "narrow down". Couple 3 has no date. After the compare card, the reply asks for the year in all 3 runs that replied. This is the date unlock, and the judge accepts it. But the venue work stops at that question.
One budget slip. In the first sweep, couple 3 sample 2 tapped "How long does planning a wedding take?". The reply then offered a starter budget. The turn plan made no offer, so the model chose the question itself. The judge flagged 1 of 47 answered taps across both sweeps.
One silent reply. In the first sweep, the forced compareSuppliers call for couple 3 ended with the provider reason max_messages after 2,893 reasoning tokens. The couple saw no reply. The same reason shows in 25 earlier runs since 24 September.
Compare card: older issues. "Venue type" and "Venue style" show raw listing keys, for example countryHouseManor, statelyHome, unselected and lovelyGrounds. A venue with no capacity shows "0" guests. The Eastington Park thumbnail path in the directory is 1..JPEG, so its image is broken. These issues come from before this branch.
Couple 5 check-in. In one run of the second sweep, the check-in offered a new venue search in Gloucestershire. The couple has four saved venues, and the rail offers "Help us narrow down our venues".
