Route Audit (ZenWrite)

Prove that every route (or the portion the user named) renders what the manifest requires, signed in when needed, and leave a Playwright ratchet behind.

First actions every invocation

1. Read references/zenwrite-portions.md (this repo’s phase map + commands).
2. Read docs/audit/routes/STATE.md and docs/audit/routes/state.json if they exist — resume, do not restart.
3. Run preflight from references/setup-and-install.md (port 9222 / app up / git SHA / Playwright).
4. Resolve the user’s portion → phase id(s) or single fixture URL. If unclear, ask once.

Then follow the loop below for that portion only (unless they asked for a full sweep).

The one idea

Job	Tool
Certify — does this route pass?	pnpm exec playwright test e2e/routes/<phase>.spec.ts
Diagnose — why does it fail?	Chrome DevTools MCP on an already signed-in browser

A route is signed_off only when a committed spec passes on the current SHA in a later turn than the fix. Never self-certify from a snapshot.

Resolve portion → work

Ask	Do
Named phase (1-public, 3-studio-content, …)	That phase only
Studio surface (Create, Money, Home, …)	Map via zenwrite-portions.md → one phase
Single URL / ?view=	Single-route fast path
“Did the refactor break routes?”	pnpm audit:routes:all — DevTools only on reds
“Everything” / pre-launch	Phases in order; fresh context per 12–15 routes
Public reader / pricing	1-public and/or 7-public-content (fixtures required)

The loop (scoped to the portion)

manifest ──► walk with DevTools (evidence only — fix nothing yet)
                 ▼
            triage: cluster root causes
                 ▼
            repair source ──► update manifest must_render ──► gen-route-specs
                 ▼
            playwright test e2e/routes/<phase>.spec.ts
                 ▼
            later turn: green + committed SHA → STATE signed_off

Repo scripts (ZenWrite)

Prefer repo root scripts (AppView + reader aware):

pnpm exec node scripts/build-route-manifest.mjs
pnpm exec node scripts/gen-route-specs.mjs --phase <id>
pnpm audit:routes
pnpm audit:routes:all

Skill copies under .cursor/skills/route-audit/scripts/ are for install/generic; ZenWrite enumeration lives in scripts/build-route-manifest.mjs.

Walk (DevTools)

Per fixture: navigate_page → take_snapshot → list_console_messages → list_network_requests (non-2xx) → assert each must_render → take_screenshot → docs/audit/routes/evidence/<phase>/<slug>.png.

Record failures verbatim in state.json. Do not fix mid-walk.

Sign-off gates

All five required (see references/state-and-signoff.md): spec exists, committed, playwright green, verified_commit = current SHA, verification turn after fix turn.

Non-negotiables

• Signed-in by attachment (--browserUrl / profile), not scripted login.
• Pin real fixtures for :slug routes — never invent.
• Evidence before verdict (actual console text, status, URL).
• Scope: note adjacent issues under observed_not_fixed; do not redesign mid-phase.
• Run signed-out (auth phase) when auditing public vs private behavior.

Fast paths

• Single route — preflight, walk one fixture, report; any fix still updates the phase spec.
• Regression — Playwright first; DevTools only for failures.
• New route — regenerate manifest, author must_render, gen spec, walk, later sign-off.
