The validation panel sits at the bottom of the editor. When it surfaced
an error ("node X is missing next_node_key") the user had to scroll up,
find that node, expand it, find the broken field. Long feedback loop.
Each node-scoped IssueLine becomes a button: click it and the editor
expands the offending node, scrolls it into view, and briefly rings
its border so the eye lands on the right card. Trigger-scoped issues
stay non-interactive (the trigger panel is already at the top of the
page).

A flow with 8 send_message nodes used to show 8 identical-looking pills
in the editor — the only way to tell them apart was to expand each
one. Adds a one-line summary below the meta label when the card is
collapsed:
- send_message → first 80 chars of text
- send_buttons → text + button titles
- send_list → text + option count
- collect_input → prompt + target var
- condition → "var.email == 'support@…'"
- set_tag → "Add tag 1f8c…"
- handoff → first 80 chars of note
Empty nodes (just added, no fields set) keep the old compact look so
you can tell at a glance what still needs configuration.

The data model and the runner already supported multiple sections in a
WhatsApp interactive list, but the builder UI exposed no way to add one
— it only let you add rows within the single default section. So users
couldn't build a categorized menu (Billing / Support / Sales) without
editing the DB directly.
Adds an "Add section" button below the sections list (capped at the
WhatsApp spec's 10) and a per-section remove button (shown when more
than one section exists).

Node key and per-button/row reply IDs are auto-generated and consumed
only by the runner — exposing them in the main form read as developer
leakage. Move them behind a per-node "Show advanced" toggle so the
default UI shows only customer-facing fields. Power users who need
stable IDs for analytics can still get them.

Final feature PR before GA cleanup. Closes the gap between "flow
runner works" (PR 2) and "users have everything they need to build
real automation" — three new node types, plain-text sends actually
sending, three starter templates, a run-history page for debugging.
What landed:
1. engineSendText helper (src/lib/flows/meta-send.ts) — wraps
sendTextMessage with the phone-variant retry + DB persistence
pattern. Unblocks send_message + collect_input nodes that
previously auto-advanced without sending.
2. Three new node types in the engine:
- collect_input: sends a prompt, suspends, captures the next
text reply into flow_runs.vars[var_key], advances. Supports
{{vars.X}} interpolation in downstream prompts + handoff
notes.
- condition: branches on subject (var / tag / contact_field)
with operators (equals / contains / present / absent).
Auto-advancing, no Meta call. Pure predicate logic exported
as evaluateConditionPredicate with 7 new unit tests.
- set_tag: upsert/delete on contact_tags then advance. Non-
fatal on write failure — logged + advances anyway so a tag
glitch doesn't strand the customer.
3. Real send_message — calls engineSendText, logs the result,
handles errors by ending the run with status='failed'. Same
{{vars.X}} interpolation.
4. Three starter templates (src/lib/flows/templates.ts):
- Welcome menu (the owner's brief example)
- FAQ bot (keyword → list → answers → end)
- Lead capture (first_inbound → collect_input chain → handoff
with vars in the note)
POST /api/flows now accepts {template_slug} to clone a
template into a fresh draft. GET /api/flows/templates exposes
the gallery shape (no nodes payload — fetched on actual clone).
5. Builder UI extensions:
- NODE_META + config sub-forms for collect_input, condition,
set_tag.
- Template gallery on the /flows New-flow dialog (loads from
/api/flows/templates, falls back gracefully if absent).
- "Runs" button in the editor header → /flows/[id]/runs.
6. Run-history viewer at /flows/[id]/runs — newest-first list of
the 50 most recent runs, with expandable per-run event
timeline (started, node_entered, message_sent,
reply_received, fallback_fired, handoff, timeout, error,
completed). Useful for debugging "why didn't my flow advance?"
from the brief's use case.
7. Validator updates: new error rules for each new node type
(prompt_text required, var_key alphanumeric, operator valid,
true_next/false_next exist, etc.). outgoingEdges helper now
covers collect_input/condition/set_tag for reachability.
All gated behind isFlowsEnabled(profile). Non-beta accounts see no
change. Run-history API is also 404 for non-beta.
Validation: 173/173 tests pass (added 7 new for the predicate);
typecheck + lint + build all clean.

Ships the surface that lets opted-in beta accounts build, save, and
activate WhatsApp conversation flows entirely from the web UI — no
SQL fixtures needed. Sidebar gets a "Flows" entry (hidden for
non-beta accounts), the /flows list page surfaces existing flows,
/flows/[id] is the linear-list editor.
Wraps the runner from PR 2 with everything a real user needs to
build the welcome-menu example end-to-end.
What landed:
1. `src/lib/flows/validate.ts` — pure validator. Checks entry
node exists, all next_node_key refs resolve, no unreachable
nodes, Meta-limit violations (button title ≤20, ≤3 buttons,
≤10 list rows, ≤24 chars per list row). 24 unit tests.
2. `src/app/api/flows/route.ts` — GET (list user's flows),
POST (create draft).
3. `src/app/api/flows/[id]/route.ts` — GET (load with nodes),
PUT (replace name + trigger + nodes; delete-then-insert),
DELETE (cascade clean-up).
4. `src/app/api/flows/[id]/activate/route.ts` — status toggle.
Activation runs the validator; returns 422 + the full issue
list when blocked.
5. `src/app/(dashboard)/flows/page.tsx` — list of cards, "New
flow" dialog, delete with confirm.
6. `src/app/(dashboard)/flows/[id]/page.tsx` — editor shell
that loads data and hands it to FlowBuilder.
7. `src/components/flows/flow-builder.tsx` — the editor itself.
Header with name + save/activate/pause/delete; trigger
panel; entry-node picker; node list with expandable per-node
config forms (start, send_buttons, send_list, send_message,
handoff, end); bottom validation panel that mirrors what the
server's activate endpoint would reject.
8. `src/components/layout/sidebar.tsx` — Flows entry between
Automations and Settings, rendered only when isFlowsEnabled.
Every API route + page is gated server-side by isFlowsEnabled —
non-beta accounts get 404 (not 403) so the routes don't even hint
at existing. UI gate is for snappy redirect; security is at the
API layer.
Validation: 166/166 tests pass (added 24 validator tests);
typecheck + lint + build all clean.
