Overview
dsh-client-ui-message-feedback
Source-level overviewPer-message feedback plugin, browser half: a Like/Dislike pair plus an optional note, contributed as the feedback entry (order 10) of the conversation.chat.assistant-actions strip. The strip is declared by ui-conversation and rendered inside the finalized assistant message's IconActions row, between copy and branch, so the controls inherit that row's chrome and hover behavior. Only finalized messages reach the slot — an interruption-frozen partial carries no messageId and therefore no feedback controls. The strip renders once per turn, on the closing assistant message that owns the turn's IconActions row: earlier steps of a multi-step turn produce tool rows rather than a rateable body, so they present no controls even though the Host would accept them as targets.Collapse technical overview

Per-message feedback plugin, browser half: a Like/Dislike pair plus an optional note, contributed as the feedback entry (order 10) of the conversation.chat.assistant-actions strip. The strip is declared by ui-conversation and rendered inside the finalized assistant message's IconActions row, between copy and branch, so the controls inherit that row's chrome and hover behavior. Only finalized messages reach the slot — an interruption-frozen partial carries no messageId and therefore no feedback controls. The strip renders once per turn, on the closing assistant message that owns the turn's IconActions row: earlier steps of a multi-step turn produce tool rows rather than a rateable body, so they present no controls even though the Host would accept them as targets.
One MessageFeedbackController per Session backs every message control in that Session, so a single messageFeedback.list read seeds the whole transcript. The read is deferred to the first hover or focus rather than fired on mount, because the controls mount once per settled message in the visible history.
Mutations go through ctx.remote.messageFeedback; the Host owns per-item compare-and-set. Every put and delete carries the version this controller last observed, and a version-conflict reply carries the authoritative item, so a lost race reconciles from the reply itself instead of refetching the Session. Mutations serialize per Session, so a queued operation always compares against the committed version. Re-clicking the recorded rating retracts the feedback; switching sides carries the existing note forward.
The /client exports are the plugin body (apply/inject), the MessageFeedbackActions component, the MessageFeedbackController class, and the injected face types.
Model Experience
None, as feedback is a sidecar that never enters the append-only Session log, the model context, or telemetry; no rating or note is ever visible to the model.
KV Cache effect
None; no feedback mutation touches the history tail.
Known Limitations and Deferred Work
- Note size is a Host policy — the deployment configures
maxNoteBytes(8192 in the Web bundle) and the Host rejects an oversized note withnote-too-large. The editor does not pre-check the limit, so an oversized note fails on save rather than while typing. - No cross-tab push — a second tab's rating becomes visible on reconnect or on the next conflict reply, not immediately; the sidecar publishes no live frames.
- Chat view only — the trajectory and waterfall views render no feedback controls even though their assistant nodes now carry the same
messageId.
LIMITATIONS
Known limitations
- **Note size is a Host policy** — the deployment configures `maxNoteBytes` (8192 in the Web bundle) and the Host rejects an oversized note with `note-too-large`. The editor does not pre-check the limit, so an oversized note fails on save rather than while typing. - **No cross-tab push** — a second tab's rating becomes visible on reconnect or on the next conflict reply, not immediately; the sidecar publishes no live frames. - **Chat view only** — the trajectory and waterfall views render no feedback controls even though their assistant nodes now carry the same `messageId`.
