Description

Preserve an unsaved comment and its uploaded asset IDs when comment creation fails. The work-item comment helper catches request errors and returns undefined, so the composer must require a returned comment ID before finalizing uploads or clearing the form.

Keep successful-create cleanup even if the submit callback or subsequent asset finalization throws, avoiding a retry of a comment that already exists.

Adds a minimal web Vitest setup using the test dependencies already pinned in the workspace catalog and lockfile. The lockfile change is limited to the web importer.

Type of Change

  • Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)

Screenshots and Media (if applicable)

No layout changes.

Test Scenarios

Validated on preview 0b9ca512c8a841bcbe9be62e22146daa74d71edb, with Node 24.22.1, pnpm 11.25.0 (repository declares 11.10.0), and Vitest 4.1.12.

  • Seven native component tests pass using real React and react-hook-form. The createComment operation, editor, UI and service boundaries are mocked. Cases cover rejected, undefined and missing-ID creation results, retry without retyping/reuploading, project/workspace assets, successful cleanup, and callback/asset errors after creation.
  • With current-preview production composer bytes and the same regression harness, three tests fail and four pass. Restoring the fix returns all seven to passing.
  • The actual helper's catch-to-undefined behavior was checked in source, not exercised by an API integration or browser test.
  • All 45 format/lint/typecheck tasks and 11 prerequisite builds in the repository's turbo run check --dry=json graph passed via the installed native tools, preserving dependency order and every executable task. This includes all four apps' typechecks and full web formatting/lint (431 warnings, zero errors).
  • The standard i18n generator's tsx CLI requires an IPC socket unavailable in this environment. The same generator ran using node --import tsx scripts/generate-types.ts; manifests were not changed. This is equivalent task coverage, not a claim that the unmodified pnpm check wrapper itself ran.
  • Full-workspace frozen-lockfile installation, supply-chain policy verification, and git diff --check pass.

Full application production builds, backend/database integration, live-browser workflows and hosted CI were not run.

The active source path is useWorkItemCommentOperations.createComment → CommentCreate. No issue is claimed closed.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Comment drafts and uploaded attachments remain available when submission fails or does not create a comment.
    • The editor clears and the submission callback runs only after a comment is created. After creation, the draft clears even if a callback or attachment-processing step fails.
    • Comment forms are kept separate when switching between items, preventing a pending submission or retained draft from affecting another item.

Review follow-up (12 November 2026)

In f3d18777000e0a7b70f665af70fe184e373fe2c1, scoped the composer to workspace, project and entity identity in both callers. This prevents a failed draft or its assets moving to another work item, and prevents an older pending creation from clearing the new item's draft. Same-item failure/retry state is retained. No persistent cross-item draft cache or dependency change was added.

Nine focused tests pass, including two new regressions using the actual IssueActivity parent that fail before this follow-up (two failures, seven passes). Tests use real React and React Hook Form with mocked editor, operation/store and surrounding UI boundaries. Cached-navigation reachability is supported by source inspection, not a live-browser reproduction; the generic CommentsWrapper caller was source-reviewed rather than separately rendered by those tests.

All 45 executable format/lint/type tasks and 11 prerequisite builds in the current aggregate graph pass on the revised source. They ran dependency-ordered using native commands, with the same i18n generator invoked through node --import tsx; this is not an unmodified pnpm check wrapper run. Full production application builds, backend/database, live-browser workflows and hosted CI were not run.

For a fresh checkout, use pnpm turbo run test --filter=web, whose existing task graph builds workspace prerequisites. Direct pnpm --filter web test assumes those artifacts are already built.

Walkthrough

CommentCreate now preserves the draft unless comment creation returns an ID. The web app adds Vitest configuration and tests for submission outcomes, retries, asset handling, and item changes.

Changes: Comment creation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Submission outcomes and tests
apps/web/components/comments/comment-create.tsx, apps/web/components/comments/comment-create.test.tsx, apps/web/package.json, apps/web/vitest.config.ts
Form reset and editor clearing occur only when creation returns a comment ID. Tests cover failed creation and retries, successful submission, callback and asset-finalization outcomes. The web app adds Vitest configuration, dependencies, and a test script.
Comment form identity
apps/web/components/comments/comments.tsx, apps/web/components/issues/issue-detail/issue-activity/root.tsx, apps/web/components/comments/comment-create.test.tsx
Comment forms receive keys based on workspace, project, and item identifiers. Tests cover switching items while a draft or creation request remains.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to f3d18

Failed comment creation now keeps the draft and its uploaded assets for retry. Drafts are scoped to their item, so a retained draft is not posted to a different item. No actionable merge risk remains.

Explanation

The title follows the conventional commit format and names the main change: comment drafts are kept when comment creation fails. The changeset matches this: CommentCreate only clears the form and finalizes assets after a comment ID is returned, and the tests cover the failure cases. The title is specific and does not mention the Vitest setup, which is a secondary change.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the repository template. It states the bug fix goal, the behavior change (a returned comment ID is required before asset finalization or form reset), and the follow-up scoping to workspace, project, and entity identity. It marks the Bug fix type. The Test Scenarios section gives detailed test results, environment versions, and explicit limits on what was not run. The References section names the active source path and states that no issue is claimed closed. The Screenshots section says there are no layout changes. Minor gap: the template's Test Scenarios and References headings are retained, and the description adds a follow-up section outside the template. These points do not block a pass.

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

Provide the test prerequisites for a fresh checkout.

pnpm --filter web test runs Vitest without building dependencies. The imported @plane/constants and @plane/utils packages export files from dist, which is ignored, so the suite cannot load after a fresh install. The Turbo test task builds dependencies, but this script bypasses it. Make the direct test workflow supply those artifacts or resolve the packages from source. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

isCommentCreated so it is scoped to the current work item. When the entity
