Phase 10.1 Plan 09: UAT Gap Closure - Data Flow Fixes

Fixed three data flow bugs: disambiguation keyboard action field, confirmation cancel predecessor reference, and missing /list command route

Performance

• Duration: 3 minutes
• Started: 2026-02-08T14:53:13Z
• Completed: 2026-02-08T14:56:53Z
• Tasks: 4
• Files modified: 1

Accomplishments

• Fixed Build Batch Keyboard to read actionType field instead of action, enabling correct disambiguation keyboard text and callbacks
• Fixed Build Cancel Return Submenu to use dynamic $input reference, allowing confirmation dialog cancel to return to container status
• Added /list command to Keyword Router as alias for status command
• Deployed all fixes to production n8n instance

Task Commits

Each task was committed atomically:

1. Task 1: Fix Build Batch Keyboard to use actionType field - 27326b8 (fix)

   • Changed const action = $json.action to $json.actionType
   • Fixes UAT issue: disambiguation keyboard showing "multiple all?" instead of actual action

2. Task 2: Fix Build Cancel Return Submenu to use dynamic input - bbb9694 (fix)

   • Changed $('Prepare Cancel Return').item.json to $input.item.json
   • Fixes UAT issue: cancel from confirmation dialog not returning to container status view

3. Task 3: Add /list command to Keyword Router - 9e4bfb1 (feat)

   • Added "list" route with same outputKey as "status" route
   • Fixes UAT issue: /list command showing help text instead of container list

4. Task 4: Deploy updated main workflow via n8n API - 80555a7 (chore)

   • Deployed n8n-workflow.json to production instance (ID: HmiXBlJefBRPMS0m4iNYc)

Files Created/Modified

• n8n-workflow.json - Main workflow with three bug fixes applied

Decisions Made

1. List command implementation: Alias approach

• Added "list" as route in Keyword Router with same output as "status"
• Rationale: Status command already provides container list functionality; creating an alias is simpler than duplicating logic

2. Dynamic predecessor reference pattern

• Used $input.item.json instead of hardcoded node name
• Rationale: Build Cancel Return Submenu has two incoming paths; dynamic reference works for both

Deviations from Plan

None - plan executed exactly as written.

Issues Encountered

API deployment field restrictions

• Issue: Initial deployment attempts failed with 400 errors for read-only fields
• Resolution: Removed active and tags fields from deployment payload, keeping only name, nodes, connections, settings, staticData
• Outcome: Successful deployment with HTTP 200

Next Phase Readiness

Three UAT gaps closed. Ready for UAT re-test to verify fixes:

1. Disambiguation keyboard should show "stop/start/restart" not "multiple"
2. Cancel from confirmation dialog should return to container status view
3. /list command should show paginated container list

No blockers for UAT re-test.
