Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The editor adds redo history, node duplication, canvas clearing, expanded canvas controls, keyboard shortcuts, and Inspector integration. New tests cover duplication behavior and undo/redo transitions.

Changes

Editor actions

Layer / File(s) Summary
Inspector duplication action
frontend/src/flow/Inspector.tsx
Inspector accepts onDuplicate and displays a duplicate button beside the delete button when provided.
History and canvas actions
frontend/src/pages/Index.tsx
Undo and redo use bounded snapshots. New edits clear redo history. Node duplication copies node data, offsets its position, and updates selection. Canvas clearing removes nodes and edges after confirmation.
Controls and validation
frontend/src/pages/Index.tsx, frontend/src/test/undoRedoAndDuplicate.test.tsx
Keyboard shortcuts, toolbar controls, and desktop and mobile Inspector wiring expose the actions. Tests validate duplication and undo/redo behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to af101

Undo/Redo can lose the user's next edit and allow an outdated redo branch, while node duplication can create duplicate node identities that destabilize the canvas graph. These correctness issues make the PR unsafe to merge until they are fixed.

63-80: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Test the production history and duplication behavior.

These tests define local createDuplicatedNode, snapshot, undo, and redo implementations. They do not execute duplicateNode, snapshot, undo, or redo from frontend/src/pages/Index.tsx.

Add a Canvas interaction test, or extract the shared state transitions into a production module and import that module in the tests. This will detect regressions such as the stale skipSnapshot state.

Do not skip the next user edit after undo or redo.

Lines 445-447 consume skipSnapshot only when a later edit calls snapshot. The restore operations on Lines 468-469 and Lines 484-485 do not call snapshot.

After an undo, the next edit is not added to undoStack. The same edit leaves redoStack intact. A later redo can then discard the new branch.

Remove skipSnapshot, because snapshots are already captured explicitly before mutations.

Proposed fix
-  const skipSnapshot = useRef(false);
-
   const snapshot = useCallback(() => {
-    if (skipSnapshot.current) {
-      skipSnapshot.current = false;
-      return;
-    }
     undoStack.current.push({
       nodes: JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(nodes)),
       edges: JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(edges)),
@@
-    skipSnapshot.current = true;
     setNodes(prev.nodes);
     setEdges(prev.edges);

-    skipSnapshot.current = true;

Generate an ID that is absent from the current graph.

nextId() restarts at n101, while imported and loaded workflows retain their node IDs. If the graph already contains n101, Line 494 creates a duplicate ID. React Flow cannot distinguish the original node from the duplicate.

Check the generated ID against nodes before appending the duplicate.

Proposed fix
-      const newId = nextId();
+      let newId = nextId();
+      while (nodes.some((node) => node.id === newId)) {
+        newId = nextId();
+      }

Pull request overview

This PR adds editor productivity features to the flow canvas: Undo/Redo support, node duplication, and quick canvas navigation/clearing controls, plus accompanying UI wiring and tests.

Changes:

  • Added redo stack support alongside the existing undo stack, with toolbar buttons and keyboard shortcuts for undo/redo.
  • Added node duplication via Inspector action and keyboard shortcut, and wired the callback through the Canvas → Inspector boundary.
  • Added on-canvas quick controls for zooming, fitting the view, and clearing the canvas; introduced a new test file for undo/redo + duplication behaviors.

Reviewed changes

Copilot reviewed 3 out of 3 changed files in this pull request and generated 8 comments.
