+# 058 — Newly auto-declared params don't appear in the UI until a manual refresh
+
+## Summary
+
+`auto_declare_params` / `auto_declare_log_stream_params` (`src/engine.rs:383`,
+`:451`) can add new param declarations on any ingested line, but the
+frontend only ever fetches the param list once, on mount
+(`webapp/src/App.tsx:278-284`, `fetchParamDeclarations().then(setParams)`).
+The main poll loop (`App.tsx:300-350`, interval from
+`webapp/src/lib/polling.ts`) refetches timeline entries and logs every
+tick but never re-fetches param declarations — the only other place
+`setParams` is called is the `onDeclared` callback fired by a user's own
+manual edit in `Params.tsx`. So a param that gets auto-declared mid-run
+from freshly ingested lines is invisible in the Params panel until the
+page is reloaded.
+
+There is no push infrastructure (SSE/websocket) anywhere in the
+codebase; all live-refresh today is plain polling.
+
+## Scope
+
+- Add a periodic (or piggybacked on the existing poll loop) refetch of
+  param declarations in `App.tsx`, e.g. call `fetchParamDeclarations()`
+  alongside the existing timeline/log poll in the loop at
+  `App.tsx:300-350`, or on its own lighter-weight interval if refetching
+  every tick is wasteful.
+- Only update state when the declaration list actually changed, to avoid
+  needlessly re-rendering `Params.tsx` on every poll tick.
+- Out of scope: introducing SSE/websocket push infrastructure — polling
+  is consistent with how the rest of the app already refreshes.
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+
+- Ingesting new lines that trigger auto-declaration of a previously
+  unseen param causes that param to appear in the Params UI within one
+  poll interval, without a page reload.
+- Existing manual param declaration/edit flows (`Params.tsx`'s
+  `onDeclared`) are unaffected.
+
+## Depends on
+
+None.

+# 059 — `log stream` parsing is one hardcoded regex, not generic whitespace-columnar detection
+
+## Summary
+
+Current `log stream` support is a single hardcoded regex,
+`LOG_STREAM_RE` (`src/logfmt.rs:93-113`), matching exactly six fixed
+columns (`Timestamp Thread Type Activity PID TTL`) by content shape
+(dates/hex/decimals) rather than by parsing the header row generically.
+`auto_declare_log_stream_params` (`src/engine.rs:451-472`) then extracts
+only three hardcoded fields (`log_type`, `process`, `pid`) via three more
+bespoke regexes (`LOG_STREAM_TYPE_PATTERN` etc., `logfmt.rs:108-113`).
+
+The fixture `src/fixtures/log_stream_sample.txt` has a real header row
+(`Timestamp                       Thread     Type        Activity             PID    TTL  `)
+whose columns are separated by runs of 2+ spaces — the general CSV-like
+shape the wishlist asks for — plus a trailing unlabelled `process:
+message` tail that must not get merged into the preceding column. Today
+nothing derives column names or positions from that header; every field
+is matched by a fixed, hand-tuned regex, so any deviation from this
+exact `log stream` output shape silently fails to parse.
+
+## Scope
+
+- Replace `LOG_STREAM_RE`/`LOG_STREAM_*_PATTERN`'s fixed-shape matching
+  with a generic whitespace-columnar detector: given a header line,
+  split on runs of duplicated whitespace (2+ spaces, or a single tab, or
+  " \t " — any whitespace repeated) to determine column names and
+  positions, then apply the same column boundaries to subsequent data
+  lines.
+  - The header's last named column's value must still capture through
+    to end-of-line without swallowing the trailing unlabelled message
+    column that `log stream` appends after the last header-named field
+    (i.e. that trailing text becomes its own unlabelled/message param,
+    not merged into the last header column).
+  - Single tabs are acceptable separators even where surrounding spaces
+    aren't doubled.
+- Wire the new column-driven extraction into
+  `auto_declare_log_stream_params` in place of the three bespoke
+  per-field regexes, so declared params are derived from whatever
+  columns the header actually names, not a fixed list of three.
+- Use `src/fixtures/log_stream_sample.txt` as the reference fixture and
+  add/extend tests in `src/logfmt.rs`/`src/engine.rs` asserting header
+  columns are correctly detected and the trailing message field is kept
+  separate.
+- Out of scope: changing param-cardinality bounding introduced in ticket
+  050/054 (commit f48d3c6f) — this is purely about how columns are
+  detected/split, not about pruning noisy auto-declarations.
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+
+- Piping real `log stream` output (as in `log_stream_sample.txt`)
+  through ottyl declares params matching the header's actual column
+  names, not the previous fixed three.
+- The trailing unlabelled message text on each `log stream` line is
+  captured as its own field and never merged into the last named
+  header column.
+- A header/data line whose columns are separated by a single tab is
+  parsed identically to one separated by 2+ spaces.

+# 060 — Timeline sort-by-property does a full materialize+sort per query instead of using a helper index
+
+## Summary
+
+Sorting the timeline by an arbitrary property does work today (from
+ticket 045): in the `EngineQuery::Logs` branch (`src/engine.rs:1408-1487`),
+when `sort_by` is set, every filtered line is materialized into a
+`Vec<LogEntryDto>` (deriving params for all of them), then sorted
+in-memory with `.sort_by(...)`, with `sort_missing_fallback` (default
+true) partitioning entries that have the sort param from those that
+don't and ordering the latter by `ottyl_seq` (`:1468-1482`).
+
+The problem is architectural: there is no incremental secondary index
+keyed by the sort property, only the primary `BTreeMap` keyed by
+`IndexKey::IngestedLog { sequence, timestamp }` (`src/index_key.rs`,
+inserted at `engine.rs:156-181`). Every sorted query re-derives params
+for and re-sorts the *entire* filtered range from scratch, and range
+selection (e.g. "give me the next page in this order") has no way to
+seek directly into a sorted position — it can only sort everything then
+slice.
+
+## Scope
+
+- Introduce a "helper index": a secondary `BTreeMap` keyed by
+  `(sort-param-value, ottyl_seq)` (or equivalent composite key so
+  `ottyl_seq` is the tie-break/fallback ordering baked into the key
+  itself, not a post-hoc partition step) per distinct param name that's
+  been sorted by.
+- Populate a helper index incrementally as lines are ingested (near
+  `engine.rs:156-181`, alongside the primary index insert), for any
+  param name that currently has a live helper index, rather than
+  rebuilding from scratch per query.
+- Lines missing the sort param must still be captured in the helper
+  index's ordering, falling back to `ottyl_seq` ordering — matching
+  current `sort_missing_fallback` semantics but expressed as part of the
+  index's key/ordering rather than a separate partition-and-append step.
+- Adapt the `EngineQuery::Logs` sorted branch (`engine.rs:1459-1483`) to
+  do a range walk over the relevant helper index instead of
+  materializing and sorting the full filtered set every time.
+- Out of scope: the eviction/purge policy for helper indexes that
+  haven't been used recently — that's ticket 061.
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+
+- Querying the timeline sorted by a declared param returns results
+  ordered correctly, including lines missing that param falling back to
+  `ottyl_seq` order, matching current behavior.
+- A sorted query no longer re-sorts the full filtered range from scratch
+  on every call once a helper index for that sort key exists — verified
+  by a test/benchmark showing incremental maintenance rather than
+  full materialize-then-sort.
+- Existing sort-related tests (from ticket 045) continue to pass
+  unmodified in their assertions.

+# 061 — Sort helper indexes need to be purged after a period of no access
+
+## Summary
+
+Ticket 060 introduces per-sort-key helper `BTreeMap` indexes. Left
+unbounded, a user (or dashboard) that sorts by many distinct params over
+a session accumulates a helper index per param forever, each duplicating
+the full timeline's worth of keys. There's no existing time-since-access
+eviction pattern in `engine.rs` to model this on: the only eviction today
+is `evict_excess_logs` (`src/engine.rs:1356-1363`, called from ingest at
+`:181` and from `SetMaxLogs` at `:212`), which is a hard count-cap
+("drop oldest once over `max_logs`"), not an LRU/last-accessed scheme.
+
+## Scope
+
+- Track a last-accessed timestamp per helper index (e.g.
+  `HashMap<String, (BTreeMap<...>, Instant)>` or equivalent), updated
+  whenever a query actually reads from that index.
+- Add a sweep (triggered periodically, or opportunistically on
+  ingest/query — match whichever fits the existing engine actor's
+  message-loop structure) that drops any helper index whose
+  last-accessed time exceeds a fixed duration.
+- A dropped helper index must be transparently rebuildable: the next
+  query sorted by that param should lazily rebuild the index (a one-time
+  full scan) exactly as if it had never existed, rather than erroring or
+  falling back permanently to unsorted behavior.
+- Out of scope: making the purge duration user-configurable via
+  `Settings` — pick a reasonable fixed constant unless the ticket
+  implementer finds a strong reason to expose it.
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+
+- A helper index untouched for longer than the purge duration is
+  removed from engine memory.
+- Querying a sort key whose helper index was purged transparently
+  rebuilds it and returns correct results, with no user-visible error.
+- Actively-used helper indexes (queried more recently than the purge
+  duration) are never evicted.
+
+## Depends on
+
+Ticket 060 (timeline custom sort needs helper BTreeMap index) — this
+ticket assumes helper indexes already exist.

+# 063 — Declared params list shows a redundant "group name" alongside type
+
+## Summary
+
+`webapp/src/components/Params.tsx:331-337` renders each param as
+`{p.name} ({p.kind}, ...)`, where the third segment is one of `elapsed
+since previous`, nothing (for booleans), `json field {path}`, or `group
+{p.capture_group}`. There is no distinct "group" concept in the domain
+model — `src/dto.rs`, `src/profile.rs`, and `src/engine.rs` have no
+`group` field at all. What the UI calls "group" is actually
+`capture_group` (`dto.rs:22`, `profile.rs:69`), the regex named-capture
+group used to extract the param's value. By convention, params are
+declared with `(?P<name>...)`, so `capture_group` is almost always
+identical to `p.name` — displaying it is redundant noise in the common
+case (`name (type, name)`).
+
+## Scope
+
+- Change the default rendering to `name (type)`.
+- Only append the extra suffix when it's actually informative:
+  - Keep `json field {path}` and `elapsed since previous` suffixes —
+    these carry information not implied by `name`/`type`.
+  - For the capture-group case, only show it when
+    `p.capture_group !== p.name` (i.e. the regex group name genuinely
+    differs from the declared param name); otherwise omit it.
+- Out of scope: changing the underlying `capture_group` field or param
+  declaration model — this is a display-only fix.
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+
+- A param whose capture group matches its name renders as `name (type)`.
+- A param whose capture group differs from its name still shows that
+  distinction (e.g. `name (type, group other_name)`).
+- `json field` and `elapsed since previous` suffixes are unchanged.

+# 064 — Typing a panel's PromQL query gets clobbered by in-flight autosave responses
+
+## Summary
+
+In `webapp/src/components/Dashboards.tsx`, the panel query `<input>`
+(`:408-411`) is bound directly to `draft.panels[...].promql` /
+`updatePanel`, and `draft` is autosaved via a 600ms-debounced effect
+(`AUTOSAVE_DEBOUNCE_MS = 600`, line 34; effect at `:190-214`). On save
+success, `setDraft(saved)` (`:203`) unconditionally replaces the entire
+local draft with the server's response — including whatever `promql`
+string was in flight at request time. If the user types more characters
+after the debounce fires but before the save response returns, those
+keystrokes exist only in local `draft` state and get overwritten the
+instant the stale `saved` response resolves, producing the reported
+"characters inserted then removed" behavior. A second effect
+(`Dashboards.tsx:184-188`) also resets `draft` whenever `dashboards`
+changes — which the same save's `setDashboards` call triggers —
+compounding the race.
+
+## Scope
+
+- Stop unconditionally overwriting in-flight-edited fields on autosave
+  response. Options (pick one, document the choice):
+  - Track which panel/field is actively focused/being edited and skip
+    overwriting that specific field when reconciling `saved` into
+    `draft`.
+  - Only merge server-assigned fields (ids, timestamps) from `saved`
+    into `draft` rather than replacing `draft` wholesale.
+  - Guard the reconciliation with a "pending edits since request was
+    sent" check, applying `saved` only when no newer local edit
+    occurred after the request was issued.
+- Also fix the related staleness effect at `Dashboards.tsx:184-188` so
+  it doesn't clobber in-progress edits when `dashboards` changes as a
+  side effect of the same save.
+- This does not require adopting Redux or another state library — the
+  fix is local to this component's save/edit reconciliation.
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+
+- Typing continuously in a panel's PromQL input while an autosave
+  round-trip is in flight never drops or reorders characters.
+- Autosave still persists the query to the backend and other
+  server-assigned fields (ids, etc.) still get reconciled into local
+  state correctly.

+# 065 — Filter bar's help/prompt foregrounds regex syntax instead of the filter bar's own syntax
+
+## Summary
+
+A comprehensive filter-bar syntax reference already exists — operators,
+`[param]` comparisons, datetime formats, worked examples — behind the
+`<HelpIcon sectionId="filtering">` in `webapp/src/components/Docs.tsx:76-140`,
+wired up at `FilterBar.tsx:32-34`. The problem is emphasis, not missing
+docs: the input's `placeholder` (`FilterBar.tsx:38`) leads with
+`regex("error") and ottyl_seq<5 or ottyl_ts>12:00`, making regex look
+like the primary syntax, and a second `<RegexHelpIcon>` (a pure regex
+cheat-sheet, `webapp/src/components/RegexHelpIcon.tsx`) sits more
+prominently next to the input than the actual filter-syntax help icon.
+A user skimming the bar sees "regex" twice before noticing the filter
+bar has its own broader query language.
+
+## Scope
+
+- Change the input `placeholder` at `FilterBar.tsx:38` to lead with a
+  non-regex filter-bar example (e.g.
+  `ottyl_ts>-15m and requests[duration]>200`), keeping a `regex(...)`
+  clause further in the example rather than first if desired.
+- Reorder/re-emphasize the two help icons so the general filter-syntax
+  `HelpIcon` (→ `Docs.tsx`'s filtering section) reads as the primary
+  affordance, with the regex-specific cheat sheet secondary/clearly
+  labeled as being about regex specifically, not the filter bar as a
+  whole.
+- Out of scope: rewriting the content of `Docs.tsx`'s filtering section
+  — it's already accurate and thorough; this is about surfacing it
+  correctly, not authoring new documentation.
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+
+- The filter bar's placeholder text no longer leads with a bare
+  `regex(...)` example as the first thing a user sees.
+- The general filter-syntax help is at least as discoverable/prominent
+  as the regex-only cheat sheet.

+# 066 — Filter bar text doesn't reflect the active time-range preset or sort order
+
+## Summary
+
+In `webapp/src/App.tsx`, `filter` (the raw typed filter text, `:264`),
+`activePreset`/`range` (`:262-263`, set via `selectPreset` /
+`handleManualRangeSelect`, `:286-298`), and `sortSettings` (`:266`) are
+three entirely separate pieces of state.
+`<FilterBar value={filter} onChange={setFilter} .../>` (`:355`) only
+ever reflects the manually-typed `filter` string — selecting a
+quick-pick time-range preset or changing the sort order never touches
+`filter`, so the filter bar can show empty/stale text even though a
+preset or sort order is actively constraining or ordering what's
+displayed. Separately, `FilterBar.tsx:22`
+(`const [draft, setDraft] = useState(value)`) initializes its internal
+`draft` from `value` only once on mount and never resyncs if `value`
+changes externally afterward (e.g. a programmatic clear) — a related
+staleness bug worth fixing alongside this.
+
+## Scope
+
+- Decide and implement one of:
+  - Synthesize a read-only textual summary of the active preset/sort
+    state and display it in or alongside the filter bar when the user
+    hasn't typed a manual filter (e.g. showing the equivalent
+    `ottyl_ts>-Xm`-style clause for the active preset).
+  - Make preset-selection and sort-order actions actually write into
+    the `filter` query string itself (e.g. `selectPreset` appends/
+    updates an `ottyl_ts` clause), so `filter` is always the single
+    source of truth for what's displayed in the bar.
+  Document the choice in the PR — this is a real design decision, not
+  just a bug fix.
+- Fix `FilterBar.tsx:22` so the internal `draft` resyncs when the
+  `value` prop changes externally (not just on mount), so programmatic
+  filter changes (from whichever approach above, or an external clear)
+  are reflected in the input.
+- Out of scope: changing how presets/sort settings are computed or
+  stored server-side — this is about surfacing existing state in the
+  filter bar's displayed value.
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+
+- Selecting a quick-pick time-range preset causes the filter bar to
+  visibly reflect that a time constraint is active (either via a
+  synthesized display or an actual written filter clause).
+- Changing sort order is likewise visible via the filter bar's
+  displayed state.
+- The filter bar's input value stays in sync with externally-driven
+  changes to the active filter, not just the user's own typing.
+
+## Depends on
+
+None.
