fix(history): hide Retry on executions the backend will never re-drive

[cristim]

Summary

Closes #161.

The retry endpoint refuses to re-drive some failed executions with a permanent 409 (ops_hint + redrive_unsafe: true). It decides this with purchase.RedriveRefusalReason (internal/purchase/manager.go:498); the call is at internal/api/handler_purchases.go ~:2097. The History page still offered Retry on those rows, because the history projection computed ops_hint from the failure-reason map alone. As a result, operators clicked Retry and got an error toast for an action that can never succeed.

The history row projection (executionToHistoryRow, internal/api/handler_history.go) now calls the same purchase.RedriveRefusalReason(&exec) that the retry handler uses, so the two cannot drift. The function is pure and makes no extra queries: history rows already load the same recommendations column through the same queryExecutions. For failed rows only, it sets OpsHint to the refusal reason and a new RedriveUnsafe field (redrive_unsafe). The field is mirrored in frontend/src/types.ts. The existing if (p.ops_hint) check in canRetryFailedRow hides Retry, and the badge title reads "Permanent: this execution can never be retried; check the account, then start a new purchase if needed".

When a row has both a failure-reason hint and a re-drive refusal, the refusal wins.

Visible scope: RedriveRefusalReason refuses every AWS EC2 and Redshift row, because those services have no duplicate guard (manager.go ~:507-521). It also refuses Azure savings plans and unrecognized providers. Failed EC2, Redshift and Azure savings-plans rows therefore lose a Retry button that always returned a 409. RDS and other safe rows keep it.

Tests

• TestExecutionToHistoryRow_RedriveUnsafe:
  • These failed rows get the hint and the flag: Azure savings plans, an unrecognized provider, AWS EC2, Redshift, and a mixed EC2+RDS basket.
  • A failed RDS row gets neither.
  • Pending and canceled EC2 rows get neither.
  • The refusal wins over a failure-reason hint.
  • Probes: replacing the call with "", or removing the failed status guard, fails specific cases.
• history-retry-button.test.ts (19 tests): Retry is hidden and the badge is worded as permanent when redrive_unsafe is set, and the existing ops_hint behaviour is unchanged. Reverting history.ts fails it.

Verification (local, macOS)

• go test -race -count=1 ./internal/api/... ./internal/config/... ./internal/purchase/... passes.
• golangci-lint v2.10.1 reports 0 issues.
• Full jest (--maxWorkers=2): 105 suites, 3328 tests passed. tsc --noEmit and the build are clean. Lint has 0 errors and the baseline 125 warnings.
• Playwright (Chromium, mocked /api/history, built dist):
  • An Azure savings-plans row with redrive_unsafe shows no Retry button and the "Permanent: …" badge.
  • A hint-free RDS row keeps its Retry button.
• The hint text is rendered through escapeHtml.

Review

An independent non-author reviewed this in two passes and found no actionable findings at 8d98a8b. Pass 1's findings were the untested failed-only guard and the badge wording, and both are fixed.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Clarified failure hints in purchase history: executions that cannot be retried now show a permanent, non-retryable explanation, while operator-fixable issues retain guidance about the required action.
  • Unsafe-to-retry failures are distinguished from failures where retry may be possible.

📝 Walkthrough

History rows now identify failed executions that cannot be safely retried. The frontend retains the provider-specific hint and labels unsafe executions as permanently non-retriable.

Changes: History redrive safety

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Redrive safety in history rows internal/config/types.go, internal/api/handler_history.go, internal/api/handler_history_test.go	History records add a derived RedriveUnsafe field. Failed rows use the redrive refusal reason when redrive is refused. Tests cover unsafe providers and execution states, plus safe AWS RDS behavior.
Permanent refusal guidance in the frontend frontend/src/types.ts, frontend/src/history.ts, frontend/src/__tests__/history-retry-button.test.ts	The history type adds redrive_unsafe. Hint tooltips distinguish permanent refusals from operator actions. Tests check both tooltip messages and the absence of the Retry button for unsafe rows.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 7900b

Some previously retried executions lose their direct link to the successor. This is a bounded navigation regression that can be fixed before merge or accepted as follow-up.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #161 requires History to stop offering Retry when the backend refuses re-drive for Azure savings plans and unrecognized providers. The supplied PR evidence shows that failed execution rows call purchase.RedriveRefusalReason, assign the refusal to ops_hint, and set redrive_unsafe; the frontend uses ops_hint to hide Retry and uses the flag for the permanent badge wording. Tests cover the required provider cases and preserve Retry for safe RDS rows.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes stay within the issue scope. The added redrive_unsafe field, projection tests, frontend type, badge logic, and UI tests support the History behavior requested by #161. The additional AWS EC2 and Redshift coverage uses the same backend refusal rule and is a stated extension of the same defect. No unrelated change is demonstrated.

Independent review verdict: CLEAN at 8d98a8b

Reviewer: fresh Claude agent (Sonnet, high effort), not the author, cold brief. The PR body was treated as a claim. Coordinator: claude-cc-reviewer.

Blocking findings: none.

Input parity (the key correctness question): History and the retry handler decide on identical inputs.

• History reads via GetExecutionsByStatuses (internal/config/store_postgres.go:1412, through fetchExecutionsByClass at internal/api/handler_history.go:219).
• Retry reads via GetExecutionByID (store_postgres.go:1762, at handler_purchases.go:1920).
• Both use the same SELECT column list, including recommendations, and the same queryExecutions scanner.
• RedriveRefusalReason (internal/purchase/manager.go:498) reads only Recommendations[].Provider/.Service.
• The retry gate (checkRetryEligibilityGates, handler_purchases.go:2061) calls the same function.
• No per-row queries are added, and the new logic is gated on status == "failed".

Non-blocking notes:

• handler_purchases.go:1996: a failed plan-step row with zero recommendations gets a permanent 409 from retry, but History still shows Retry. This is pre-existing, outside this PR's claim, and a possible follow-up.
• One mutation probe of the failed status gate did not apply, so it produced no result. Non-failed rows are covered by the pending-EC2 and canceled-EC2 cases.

What was attacked and how (local macOS; Go unit tests and jest, mocks only):

• AWS_CONFIG_FILE=/dev/null AWS_SHARED_CREDENTIALS_FILE=/dev/null go test -race -count=1 ./internal/api/... ./internal/config/... ./internal/purchase/...: all pass. All 10 subtests of TestExecutionToHistoryRow_RedriveUnsafe pass.
• Frontend (jest, installed in a scratch worktree): history-retry-button.test.ts passes 19/19, and npx tsc --noEmit is clean.
• Fail-before: with handler_history.go reverted, the Go test fails. With history.ts reverted, jest has 1 failing test.
• Ordering mutation: applying the refusal only when OpsHint is empty is killed by "refusal wins over failure-reason hint".
• Wire consistency: the retry 409 already emits ops_hint/redrive_unsafe. The Go tags are omitempty, and the TS type is redrive_unsafe?: boolean. RedriveUnsafe has no other consumers.
• Main drift: main touched handler_purchases.go and a comment in config/types.go, but not RedriveRefusalReason or the history files.
• Not reproduced by this reviewer: the author's Playwright check. That remains author evidence.

Gate: labels are mirrored from #161. CodeRabbit is optional because exact-revision local verification plus this review cover the SHA. Merge waits on CI being green at the merge-tested head (see the rebase note below).

[cristim]

Rebased onto main (server-side gh pr update-branch --rebase) to pick up #960, which fixes main's red scheduler test.

git range-diff 97b05f69..8d98a8b0 origin/main..6a77eda8:

1:  56727351 = 1:  6f7e213a fix(history): hide Retry on executions the backend will never re-drive
2:  8d98a8b0 = 2:  6a77eda8 test(history): pin the failed-only refusal and cover EC2 rows

Both commits are identical, so the CLEAN verdict above carries over to 6a77eda. Merge waits on CI being green at 6a77eda. (claude-cc-reviewer)

[cristim]

CodeRabbit gave no response within 40 minutes of the review ping, so it is skipped. The gate is covered by the two-pass independent review plus the Playwright check at 8d98a8b. The merge driver's rebase to 6a77eda has an empty range-diff against those commits. CI on 6a77eda is green. [claude-cc-impl]

[cristim]

The independent review above covers 8d98a8b. claude-cc-pr-merge-3 rebased the branch server-side onto current main to refresh CI against the current base.
Pure rebase: git range-diff 97b05f69..8d98a8b0 70a64571..7900b8aa:

1:  56727351 = 1:  c60588f1 fix(history): hide Retry on executions the backend will never re-drive
2:  8d98a8b0 = 2:  7900b8aa test(history): pin the failed-only refusal and cover EC2 rows

The PR's own commits are unchanged, so the verdict carries to 7900b8a (owner #631 rule).

The independent review above covers 7900b8a. Second server-side rebase by claude-cc-pr-merge-3: main changed internal/api and internal/config while CI ran.
Pure rebase: git range-diff 70a64571..7900b8aa b56fe1fd..b31d5c27:

1:  c60588f1 = 1:  35dec459 fix(history): hide Retry on executions the backend will never re-drive
2:  7900b8aa = 2:  b31d5c27 test(history): pin the failed-only refusal and cover EC2 rows

The PR's own commits are unchanged, so the verdict carries to b31d5c2 (owner #631 rule).

[cristim]

The independent review above covers b31d5c2. Third server-side rebase by claude-cc-pr-merge-3: main changed internal/api and internal/config during the previous CI run.
Pure rebase: git range-diff b56fe1fd..b31d5c27 d69c2024..4c067f3d:

1:  35dec459 = 1:  48e6adb2 fix(history): hide Retry on executions the backend will never re-drive
2:  b31d5c27 = 2:  4c067f3d test(history): pin the failed-only refusal and cover EC2 rows

The PR's own commits are unchanged, so the verdict carries to 4c067f3 (owner #631 rule).

[cristim]

Exact-combination local check (macOS, claude-cc-pr-merge-3): current main 234301c3 + head 4c067f3d, built with git merge-tree (tree 981297ea, no conflicts). go build ./... ok, go vet ok, and go test -race -count=1 ./internal/api/... ./internal/config/... all pass (unit tests with mocks; no real cloud calls). CI is green at 4c067f3 (run 38988462091). The merge script's combination guard tripped only because main's 234301c changed internal/config/store_postgres.go while this PR changes internal/config/types.go; the two share no file or symbol. The merge waits on the owner's call on that guard.

[cristim]

The independent review above covers 4c067f3. Fourth server-side rebase by claude-cc-pr-merge-3, under the internal/api merge lock.
Pure rebase: git range-diff d69c2024..4c067f3d bca88c25..b02474d0:

1:  48e6adb2 = 1:  21daf1c7 fix(history): hide Retry on executions the backend will never re-drive
2:  4c067f3d = 2:  b02474d0 test(history): pin the failed-only refusal and cover EC2 rows

The PR's own commits are unchanged, so the verdict carries to b02474d (owner #631 rule).

[cristim]

Merge gate record: #967 at b02474d

• Independent review: CLEAN at 8d98a8b (fresh Sonnet high-effort reviewer, cold brief, posted above). Four server-side rebases (to 7900b8a, b31d5c2, 4c067f3 and b02474d, the last under the internal/api merge lock) each have an empty git range-diff (both commits =), both posted above, so the verdict carries over (owner feat(plans): plan steps resolve real recommendations and show real counts and prices (tier B of #609) #631 rule).
• Blocking findings: none open. Non-blocking note (failed plan-step row with zero recommendations) is pre-existing and outside this PR.
• CI: green at b02474d: CI - Build & Test run 38999498284 success on the rebase onto current main, taken under the internal/api merge lock. Earlier heads were green too: 4c067f3 run 38988462091 (plus a local main+PR test, posted above), b31d5c2 run 38985088143 (after re-running two infra flakes) and 7900b8a run 38981476980.
• Local verification (mocks/fixtures, labelled): reviewer's macOS run at the reviewed SHA: go test -race on api/config/purchase pass, jest history-retry-button.test.ts 19/19, tsc --noEmit clean, fail-before proven by reverting handler_history.go and history.ts; author Playwright check at 8d98a8b. No real-account verification (none needed: UI display rule plus a read-only API field).
• CodeRabbit: no response to the first ping; it reviewed the rebased head at 23:30Z with one Minor finding (legacy retried rows with an ops hint lose their "Retried as" link). That behaviour predates this PR (fix(db): contract migration -- drop 'cancelled' from CHECK constraints and drop cancelled_by column #47) and is a missing navigation link only, so it is deferred as non-blocking to fix(history): keep the lineage link on failed rows that show an ops hint #1040; the thread is answered and resolved.
• Labels: mirrored from fix(frontend/history): Retry button still offered on Azure savings-plans rows the backend now refuses #161.
