The app already showed "✓ All changes saved". That badge belongs to the OUTBOX -
it reports whether saved records have reached the project - and it went green
when the queue emptied, whether or not anything in the form had been saved at
all. So the promise B5 says the app does not keep was being made by a component
that could not know whether it was true.
Two indicators now, each speaking for one thing:
DRAFT .wp-draft-status, mounted in the creator's sticky save bar and the
wizard's step navigation. Driven by WPAutosave's status: "No unsaved
changes" / "Unsaved changes" / "Saving draft…" / "Draft saved at HH:MM"
/ "Draft not saved on this device — <reason>" with a Retry.
OUTBOX the existing badge, reworded so every state names the project:
"Sending N changes to the project…", "Everything sent to the project",
"N changes not yet sent to the project — retrying", "rejected by the
project".
"No unsaved changes" rather than "Saved" for an untouched form: those are
different statements and only the first is true before anything is typed. The
component was getting that wrong in the same way the outbox badge was.
Announced per S10 (T4.5's pattern, arriving one task early because this indicator
needs it to exist): role="status" while things are going well, swapping to
role="alert" on failure. A failed autosave means the safety net is not there, and
waiting for a pause in the screen reader's queue to mention that is too late.
The retry button is only rendered in the failed state - a retry offered when
nothing has failed is a button that does nothing.
Styles live in theme-light.css because both form pages mount the same component,
and a second copy in a page sheet is what wave 3 spent itself removing.
VERIFICATION. tests/autosave_check.py grew to 34 checks, all passing. The B5 ones:
- the indicator reports "No unsaved changes" untouched, then a real save with a
timestamp, and is visually distinct in each state
- a simulated storage failure is visually distinct, names the reason, offers a
retry, and switches to role=alert
- the sync badge no longer RENDERS "All changes saved", and every state it does
render names the project
That last check is deliberately scoped to what the badge renders rather than to
the file text: the old phrase still appears in the comment explaining why it was
changed, and asserting on that would be asserting that the reason cannot be
written down.
Note for wave 9: the outbox badge is styled with inline hexes, including #8a6d00
- the ninth amber from BL-009, independently confirming that entry. It is
BL-005's territory, not this task's.
