Framework fixtures

Representative project shapes for exercising live mode against different framework conventions. Each fixture is a small directory tree that the test harness copies into a temp git repo, then drives the engine binary's live-inject, live-wrap, live-accept, and detect-csp verbs against (via tests/lib/engine-bin.mjs: IMPECCABLE_BIN or skill/scripts/bin/<os>-<arch>/, filled by bun run fetch:engine; the sweeps skip without a binary).

Fixtures can also opt into a runtime E2E pass that actually installs dependencies, boots the framework dev server, and drives a Playwright browser to verify the live handshake. See the runtime block below.

Layout

<fixture>/
  files/              project tree the test copies into tmp
  gitignore.txt       becomes .gitignore in tmp (so we can commit the real files here)
  fixture.json        config + expected results the test consumes

  }
}

The legacy middleware shape name covers CSP set in either Next.js middleware.* files or the Next.js 16 proxy.* convention.

The expectedAfter file lives alongside fixture.json (not inside files/) and is a human/agent-review reference — tests don't auto-apply the patch.

The runtime block is optional. Fixtures without it only run the static checks in tests/framework-fixtures.test.mjs (inject, wrap, csp-detect). Fixtures with it additionally run the E2E suite in tests/live-e2e.test.mjs (bun run test:live-e2e), which:

1. Stages the fixture into a tmp repo.
2. Runs runtime.install to install real deps.
3. Starts impeccable live-server --background and runs impeccable live-inject --port against it.
4. Spawns runtime.devCommand and scrapes the port from stdout using runtime.readyPattern (the first capture group must be the port).
5. Opens Playwright Chromium at the dev URL and asserts window.__IMPECCABLE_LIVE_INIT__ === true (the browser-side handshake oracle) within runtime.readyTimeoutMs.
6. Runs a Steer smoke step (unless runtime.steer === false): submit a message in the global Steer bar, wait for the fake agent to reply steer_done, assert the bar unlocks and a data-impeccable-steer marker lands in source + DOM. Then continues with pick → Go → cycle → accept.
7. Tears everything down (Playwright close, dev server SIGTERM, live-server stop, tmp rm).

runtime.appDir

Optional, defaults to .. Set it when the served app is not the repo root, the shape live mode has to resolve on its own (a CLI package at the root with the site in website/, for example). With appDir set, the harness:

• stages files/ and runs git init at the tmp root, as always;
• writes .impeccable/live/config.json under <tmp>/<appDir>/, and treats every fixture-relative path in fixture.json (steer.sourceFile, manual-edit expectedSourceFile, and so on) as relative to that app dir;
• runs runtime.install and runtime.devCommand with the app dir as cwd;
• boots through impeccable live from the tmp root instead of calling live-server and live-inject directly, so the run exercises the engine's root resolution rather than assuming it. The parsed boot payload is exposed as session.liveBoot, and tests/live-e2e.test.mjs asserts on roots.appRoot, roots.contextRoot, the persisted roots.json, and the repo-root pointer.

The session object carries both paths: session.tmp is the repo root (use it for git and for artifact capture) and session.appRoot is the app. They are the same directory for every fixture without appDir.

Picking, cycling, and the render proof

pickSelector names the element the run picks. The picker resolves whatever is under the cursor, so a container whose centre is covered by a child can never be picked: add pickPosition ({x, y} in px from the element's top-left) to aim at a point the container owns, such as its own padding.

variantSequence (default [2]) is the order the run cycles through; the last entry is the variant it accepts. Every variant the run lands on gets a computed font-weight assertion in fake-agent mode, because the fake agent renders each variant at a distinct weight (FAKE_VARIANT_FONT_WEIGHTS in tests/live-e2e/agent.mjs: 300 / 900 / 600). That turns "variant N is visible" from a bar-label claim into a render fact, so a sequence like [3, 1, 2] proves all three variants really render.

acceptedSourcePattern overrides the default post-accept source check (an <h1 class="hero-title">), and assertSourceContains lists strings that must survive the whole wrap → accept → carbonize cycle. On Svelte component previews that is how a fixture proves control flow was not flattened: list the {#each} header and the per-item expressions.

stateProbe asserts page state is not lost. textSelector / expectedText check rendered state; windowProperty with expectedWindowValue and expectWindowUnchanged check a counter the app bumps on mount, so a scaffold that silently remounted the page fails. It runs after preActions, after the variants land, and (outside component previews) after accept.

Extra scenarios

Beyond the core cycle, a fixture opts into scenarios by declaring their config. Each one is also gated by IMPECCABLE_E2E_SCENARIOS:

Scenario name	Enabled by	What it proves
params	runtime.paramsScenario	Dial a range and a steps knob in the real Tune popover, accept, and assert the chosen values are baked into source as literals with the unchosen branch dropped and no data-p-* / var(--p-*) left behind.
mount-failure	runtime.componentFailureScenarios	Corrupt the published r<N>/v<variant> revision file, step onto it, and assert the persistent mount-error card appears, the session survives (bar + localStorage intact), and a variant_mount_failed event lands in the session journal. Then restore, Retry, and reach the variant again.
republish	runtime.componentFailureScenarios	Re-author every variant and reply done again; the browser must mount the new content, which is what the server's revision-dir bump exists to guarantee.
storage-loss	runtime.componentFailureScenarios (unless storageLoss: false)	Clear localStorage, reload, and assert the comparison comes back from the server's durable session record alone.

componentFailureScenarios.variant picks which variant to break or observe. Set storageLoss: false for fixtures whose picked element only exists after preActions: the reload discards that state, and re-creating it races the preview mount.

These scenarios assert on deterministic content, so they skip under IMPECCABLE_E2E_AGENT=llm.

One gotcha: tests/framework-fixtures.test.mjs stages the same fixture flat and writes the live config at the tmp root, so config.files has to resolve from both the repo root and the app root. A glob ("**/index.html") satisfies both; a literal "index.html" only works from the app root and makes the static sweep report file_not_found.

Useful runtime E2E filters:

• IMPECCABLE_E2E_ONLY=<fixture>[,<fixture>] scopes the run to selected fixture names.
• IMPECCABLE_E2E_SCENARIOS=core runs only the main click → Go → cycle → accept path; omit it or use all to include manual edit, annotation, exit, params, and the component failure-injection probes. Names: core, manual, annotations, exit, missed-done, params, mount-failure, republish, storage-loss.
• IMPECCABLE_E2E_TEST_TIMEOUT_MS, IMPECCABLE_E2E_INSTALL_TIMEOUT_MS, and IMPECCABLE_E2E_DEV_READY_TIMEOUT_MS tighten CI smoke timeouts without changing fixture metadata.

Optional runtime.steer fields:

"steer": {
  "message": "steer-e2e mark hero",
  "sourceFile": "src/routes/About.jsx",
  "expectSelector": "h1.hero-title[data-impeccable-steer=\"e2e\"]",
  "expectSourceContains": "data-impeccable-steer=\"e2e\"",
  "preActions": [{ "type": "click", "selector": "[data-testid='nav-about']" }]
}

When preActions is omitted, steer smoke inherits runtime.preActions to reveal hidden heroes before the DOM check. Source is asserted first; a reload + retry covers HMR lag. Set "steer": false to skip, or "expectDom": false for source-only verification.

Current fixtures

Fixture	Shape
vite-react/	Tracked index.html shell + src/App.jsx. Inject into the shell.
nextjs-app/	app/layout.tsx as JSX inject target (commentSyntax jsx).
astro/	src/layouts/Layout.astro as inject target. HTML comments.
sveltekit/	src/app.html shell + src/routes/+page.svelte.
vite8-sveltekit-stateful/	Svelte 5 route with $state, an {#if} branch, and an {#each} list. Picks the list container, so the component-preview scaffold has to carry the loop across as one collection prop and hydrate its items from the live DOM. Also carries the params, failure-injection, and state-preservation probes.
nuxt-vite7/	Nuxt 4 app/ structure + Vue 3 SFC. Live loads through a generated dev-only client plugin.
tanstack-router-vite/	Vite + TanStack Router (code-based SPA). Tracked index.html shell inject (the baseline Vite path, no adapter).
tanstack-start/	Vite + TanStack Start (SSR). No static index.html; Live patches the __root.tsx document to mount a generated dev-only React component that loads the bundle.
multipage-with-generator/	src/ tracked, dist/ gitignored. Exercises the is-generated guard and element_not_in_source fallback.
nextjs-turborepo/	Monorepo with shared CSP helper (createBaseNextConfig). CSP shape append-arrays.
nextjs-inline-csp/	App-level next.config.js with a literal CSP string. CSP shape append-string.
sveltekit-csp/	SvelteKit kit.csp.directives in svelte.config.js. CSP shape append-arrays.
nuxt-csp/	Nuxt routeRules with literal CSP header in nuxt.config.ts. CSP shape append-string.
monorepo-nested-vite/	Repo root is a CLI package with no dev config and no workspaces; the served Vite + React app lives in website/. Exercises runtime.appDir and live-mode root resolution.

Add new fixtures by cloning a directory, swapping files, and updating fixture.json. A fixture with a runtime block also needs its name added to the live-e2e matrices in .github/workflows/ci.yml: the live-e2e-full group list, and one live-e2e-smoke group when it should run on every PR. Keep the groups roughly the same size, since they run in parallel and the job times out at 15 minutes.
