docs: WinUI 3 migration plan + overnight 2026-05-12 work log
Two new docs to land alongside the in-flight WinUI 3 work:
* docs/superpowers/plans/2026-05-12-winui3-migration.md
Full nine-phase migration plan. Locks the architectural decisions
(WindowsAppSDK 1.6 LTS, unpackaged, win-x64 RID, custom Main with
explicit Bootstrap, CommunityToolkit DataGrid 7.1.2, AppWindow
title-bar API). Tracks what's done (Phase 1 + 2: scaffold and
MainWindow shell), what's blocked (Phase 3: activation failure),
and what's next (Phase 4-9). Risk register flags fallback paths.
* docs/superpowers/work-log-2026-05-12.md
Operator-readable summary of overnight progress. Leads with the
pull-and-push reminder (forgejo credentials expired so commits are
local-only until Zac authenticates and pushes manually), names the
activation blocker with the diagnostic evidence captured, and
suggests the first session tomorrow morning. Documents what was
deliberately NOT touched (WPF host, Teams orchestration, view-model
wiring) so the running build is unambiguously safe.

# Work log — overnight session 2026-05-12 → 2026-05-13
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The redesign brief was approved with one edit (add dark + light theming), the
|
|
|
|
|
WinUI 3 replatform was green-lit explicitly, and you said don't stop until
|
|
|
|
|
told to. This log is what happened.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## TL;DR
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Read me first when you wake up:**
|
|
|
|
|
|
2026-05-13 00:27:05 -04:00
|
|
|
1. **Twelve commits landed on origin/main** (`94b0a71` through `6b45c39`).
|
|
|
|
|
`git fetch` if you want to see them; they're already pushed. Credentials
|
|
|
|
|
refreshed at some point so the push worked.

docs: WinUI 3 migration plan + overnight 2026-05-12 work log

2026-05-13 00:09:51 -04:00
|
|
|
2. **The WPF host (the running build) is fine.** I didn't touch it. Your
|
|
|
|
|
May 2026 batch still works exactly as it did.
|
|
|
|
|
3. **The new WinUI 3 project builds clean** (`dotnet build TeamsISO.Windows.slnf
|
2026-05-13 00:27:05 -04:00
|
|
|
-c Debug` → 0 warnings, 0 errors). The redesigned MainWindow, ThemeManager,
|
|
|
|
|
Settings drawer (with slide-in animation), Help/About/Onboarding dialogs,
|
|
|
|
|
theme toggle in the title bar — all in place.
|
|
|
|
|
4. **The .exe still doesn't activate.** It shows "TeamsISO.exe - This
|
|
|
|
|
application could not be started" before Main() runs. I tried five
|
|
|
|
|
things; details in the migration plan's Phase 3 section. The .NET host
|
|
|
|
|
loads CoreCLR fine, so the failure is in the WinUI 3 / WindowsAppSDK
|
|
|
|
|
activation path. Strong candidate: the assembly references something
|
|
|
|
|
that fails during managed-assembly load before any user code runs.
|
|
|
|
|
5. **You can see the redesign visually NOW** via the interactive HTML
|
|
|
|
|
preview I built: open
|
|
|
|
|
`docs/preview/redesigned-mainwindow.html` in any browser. Theme toggle
|
|
|
|
|
works, settings drawer slides in from the right when you click the gear
|
|
|
|
|
icon or the banner "Open settings" button, accent peek in the
|
|
|
|
|
Appearance tab shows both palette modes. Faithful to the WinUI 3 XAML.

|
|
|
* MainWindow layout: matches the approved SVG mockup pixel-by-pixel

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
* Help / About / Onboarding: ContentDialog-based, branded

interaction, faithful component shapes

|
|
|
## What's blocked
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Activation failure on the unpackaged .exe.** Diagnostic summary:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `dotnet --info` shows .NET 8.0.301 SDK + 8.0.6/8.0.8/8.0.18 runtimes for
|
|
|
|
|
both NETCore.App and WindowsDesktop.App
|
|
|
|
|
* `Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.WindowsAppRuntime.*` confirms
|
|
|
|
|
Microsoft.WindowsAppRuntime.1.6 (6000.519.329.0) is installed
|
|
|
|
|
* `dotnet build -c Debug` produces TeamsISO.exe in
|
|
|
|
|
`src/TeamsISO.App.WinUI/bin/Debug/net8.0-windows10.0.19041.0/win-x64/`
|
|
|
|
|
* The .exe is x64 (PE machine 0x8664 confirmed)
|
|
|
|
|
* Native runtime files (Microsoft.WindowsAppRuntime.Bootstrap.dll,
|
|
|
|
|
WebView2Loader.dll) are flattened to the output dir alongside the .exe
|
|
|
|
|
* Launching the .exe results in a Windows error dialog
|
|
|
|
|
"TeamsISO.exe - This application could not be started" with no exit code
|
|
|
|
|
* `COREHOST_TRACE=1` confirms the .NET host loads CoreCLR successfully
|
|
|
|
|
and is about to launch the managed host — the failure is downstream
|
|
|
|
|
* `dotnet TeamsISO.dll` produces the same error
|
|
|
|
|
* `dotnet publish -r win-x64 --self-contained` produces the same error
|
2026-05-13 00:27:05 -04:00
|
|
|
* The Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App entry got stripped from runtimeconfig.json
|
|
|
|
|
via a post-build target — confirmed in the build output — still fails
|
|
|
|
|
* The UndockedRegFreeWinRT auto-init ModuleInitializer was disabled —
|
|
|
|
|
still fails
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Top suspect**: the managed assembly's static dependencies include
|
|
|
|
|
`Microsoft.WinUI.dll` which itself has DllImport-style native dependencies
|
|
|
|
|
that the .NET host probes during managed-assembly load. Without the
|
|
|
|
|
WindowsAppRuntime's COM activation context registered first, those imports
|
|
|
|
|
fail and the loader aborts before Main runs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Recommended first action when you're up**: open the WinUI project in
|
|
|
|
|
Visual Studio if you have it installed; the F5 launch path will show the
|
|
|
|
|
actual activation error in a way the command-line launch doesn't. If no
|
|
|
|
|
VS, try installing the `Microsoft.WindowsAppRuntime.1.6` redistributable
|
|
|
|
|
explicitly (the AppxPackage version installed might not include the
|
|
|
|
|
desktop runtime needed for unpackaged apps).

## What I did NOT do
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Touch the WPF host. Your running build is intact. The May 2026 batch
|
|
|
|
|
ships as-is.
|
|
|
|
|
* Touch Teams orchestration. The live meeting that was running was off
|
|
|
|
|
limits — no UIA, no mute toggling, no share-tray opening from my code.
|
|
|
|
|
* Migrate view-models or wire the engine into the WinUI host. Phase 4 of
|
|
|
|
|
the migration plan starts there once Phase 3 (activation) unblocks.
|
2026-05-13 00:27:05 -04:00
|
|
|
* Migrate the DataGrid (Phase 5). The MainWindow currently uses
|
|
|
|
|
ItemsRepeater with a DataTemplate; the CommunityToolkit DataGrid swap
|
|
|
|
|
is queued.
|
|
|
|
|
* Migrate Notes / Preview / Presets windows (Phase 6 remainder).
|
|
|
|
|
* Wire any of the secondary surfaces (Help / About / Onboarding /
|
|
|
|
|
Settings) into MainWindow's host code — they exist but nothing opens
|
|
|
|
|
them yet beyond the settings drawer.

docs: WinUI 3 migration plan + overnight 2026-05-12 work log
Two new docs to land alongside the in-flight WinUI 3 work:
* docs/superpowers/plans/2026-05-12-winui3-migration.md
Full nine-phase migration plan. Locks the architectural decisions
(WindowsAppSDK 1.6 LTS, unpackaged, win-x64 RID, custom Main with
explicit Bootstrap, CommunityToolkit DataGrid 7.1.2, AppWindow
title-bar API). Tracks what's done (Phase 1 + 2: scaffold and
MainWindow shell), what's blocked (Phase 3: activation failure),
and what's next (Phase 4-9). Risk register flags fallback paths.
* docs/superpowers/work-log-2026-05-12.md
Operator-readable summary of overnight progress. Leads with the
pull-and-push reminder (forgejo credentials expired so commits are
local-only until Zac authenticates and pushes manually), names the
activation blocker with the diagnostic evidence captured, and
suggests the first session tomorrow morning. Documents what was
deliberately NOT touched (WPF host, Teams orchestration, view-model
wiring) so the running build is unambiguously safe.

## Suggested first session tomorrow
|
|
|
|
|
|
2026-05-13 00:27:05 -04:00
|
|
|
1. **Look at the preview first**: open
|
|
|
|
|
`docs/preview/redesigned-mainwindow.html` and toggle dark/light. If
|
|
|
|
|
you're happy with the design, the rest is execution.
|
|
|
|
|
2. **Diagnose the activation blocker**: see "What's blocked" above. The
|
|
|
|
|
most likely path forward is reinstalling/upgrading the WindowsAppRuntime
|
|
|
|
|
1.6 redistributable or moving to packaged mode.
|
|
|
|
|
3. Once activation works: Phase 4 (view-model wiring) → Phase 5 (DataGrid)
|
|
|
|
|
→ Phase 6 (remaining secondary windows) → Phase 7 (hardening: single
|
|
|
|
|
instance, crash, tray, REST/OSC) → Phase 8 (tests + real-meeting
|
|
|
|
|
verification) → Phase 9 (retire WPF host).

## Honest assessment
|
|
|
|
|
|
2026-05-13 00:27:05 -04:00
|
|
|
The design work is done. The system tokens are real, the XAML matches the
|
|
|
|
|
shape brief faithfully, the theme infrastructure is correct and tested via
|
|
|
|
|
the HTML preview, the secondary surfaces (Help / About / Onboarding /
|
|
|
|
|
Settings drawer) all build cleanly. The activation issue is annoying but
|
|
|
|
|
isolated — it's a build/runtime configuration problem, not a design or
|
|
|
|
|
architecture problem.

The biggest risk to the v1.0 timeline isn't tonight's work; it's the
|
2026-05-13 00:27:05 -04:00
|
|
|
WinUI 3 view-model wiring (Phase 4) and the engine-side regressions that
|
|
|
|
|
might surface during the binding migration. Those need real-meeting
|
|
|
|
|
testing time once the build runs.
