BUG-01: UTF-8 Encoding Corruption in Emoji Characters
Field
Value
ID
BUG-01
Severity
High
Impact
Visual quality degradation; emojis display as garbled characters (e.g., "🚧" instead of "🚧")
Effort
S (Small)
Files Affected
app/page.tsx:1,15,56,65,74,88, app/components/PromoBanner.tsx:1,8
Evidence
Files contain BOM marker (U+FEFF) at byte 0 and corrupted UTF-8 sequences
Root Cause
RC-01: File encoding mismatch (UTF-8 with BOM or incorrect encoding during save)
Current Test Coverage: None
Required Tests: Visual regression test to verify emoji rendering; CI lint rule to detect BOM markers
BUG-02: Undefined CSS Custom Properties
Field
Value
ID
BUG-02
Severity
High
Impact
Skip link, focus rings, scrollbars, and theme transitions may not render correctly
Effort
M (Medium)
Files Affected
app/globals.css:27-35,42-43,48-49,55-56,61,65,69-70,74,80
Evidence
CSS references --space-2, --space-4, --color-surface, --border-width-2, --color-primary-500, --radius-md, --font-size-sm, --font-weight-semibold, --z-index-toast, --duration-200, --ease-out, --focus-ring-width, --focus-ring-color, --focus-ring-offset, --focus-ring-style, --ease-in-out, --scrollbar-width, --scrollbar-track-bg, --scrollbar-thumb-bg, --scrollbar-thumb-radius, --scrollbar-thumb-hover-bg - none defined locally
Root Cause
RC-02: External design token dependency (referenced as "design-system is in codeflow-desktop repo")
Current Test Coverage: None
Required Tests: CSS variable validation test; visual regression test for focus states
BUG-03: No Test Script Defined in package.json
Field
Value
ID
BUG-03
Severity
High
Impact
CI/CD cannot run automated tests; npm test fails; no regression protection
Effort
M (Medium)
Files Affected
package.json:5-13
Evidence
Scripts object contains dev, build, start, lint but no test script
Root Cause
RC-03: Missing test infrastructure
Current Test Coverage: None
Required Tests: Add test framework (Jest/Vitest) and configure npm test script
BUG-04: AnimatedBackground Resize Handler Not Debounced
Field
Value
ID
BUG-04
Severity
Medium
Impact
Performance degradation on rapid resize events (e.g., mobile orientation change); particles re-initialize on every resize event
Effort
S (Small)
Files Affected
app/components/AnimatedBackground.tsx:137-141,161
Evidence
window.addEventListener('resize', resizeCanvas) triggers initParticles() without debouncing
Root Cause
RC-04: Missing performance optimization
Current Test Coverage: None
Required Tests: Performance test for resize event handling; unit test for debounce behavior
BUG-05: Footer Component Duplication Across Pages
Field
Value
ID
BUG-05
Severity
Medium
Impact
Maintenance burden; inconsistent footer updates require changes in 4 files
Effort
S (Small)
Files Affected
app/page.tsx:147-152, app/installation/page.tsx:114-118, app/integration/page.tsx:325-332, app/download/page.tsx:106-110
Evidence
Identical footer JSX duplicated across all 4 page files
Root Cause
RC-05: Missing component abstraction
Current Test Coverage: None
Required Tests: Component unit test for Footer; snapshot test for consistency
BUG-06: Theme Detection in AnimatedBackground Uses DOM Class Inspection
Field
Value
ID
BUG-06
Severity
Low
Impact
Potential theme mismatch if DOM class is modified outside ThemeProvider context
Effort
S (Small)
Files Affected
app/components/AnimatedBackground.tsx:144
Evidence
document.documentElement.classList.contains('dark') instead of using ThemeContext
Root Cause
RC-06: Violates single source of truth principle
Current Test Coverage: None
Required Tests: Integration test for theme synchronization between provider and canvas
BUG-07: Missing Error Boundary for Component Failures
Field
Value
ID
BUG-07
Severity
Medium
Impact
Unhandled component errors crash entire application; poor user experience on edge cases
Effort
M (Medium)
Files Affected
app/layout.tsx (missing ErrorBoundary wrapper)
Evidence
No ErrorBoundary component exists; AnimatedBackground canvas operations could throw on unsupported browsers
Root Cause
RC-07: Missing error handling infrastructure
Current Test Coverage: None
Required Tests: Error boundary unit test; integration test for graceful degradation
BUG-08: CSP Header Allows unsafe-inline Styles
Field
Value
ID
BUG-08
Severity
Medium
Impact
Potential XSS vulnerability via inline style injection
Effort
L (Large)
Files Affected
public/staticwebapp.config.json:21
Evidence
style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline' allows arbitrary inline styles
Root Cause
RC-08: Security vs. functionality trade-off for Tailwind CSS runtime
Current Test Coverage: None
Required Tests: Security scan integration; CSP violation monitoring
BUG-09: localStorage Access Without try-catch
Field
Value
ID
BUG-09
Severity
Low
Impact
Application may crash in private browsing mode or when storage is disabled
Effort
S (Small)
Files Affected
app/components/ThemeProvider.tsx:51,84
Evidence
Direct localStorage.getItem() and localStorage.setItem() calls without error handling
Root Cause
RC-07: Missing error handling infrastructure
Current Test Coverage: None
Required Tests: Unit test for localStorage unavailability scenarios
ID
