Notification surface account switch: switch-to-b from account-a-visible · case 01

The switch-to-b event leaves a notification in account-b-loading instead of scrubbing-a.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 38 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

A new account load begins before old notification content is scrubbed.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Commit the account-a-visible / switch-to-b transition to scrubbing-a; preserve the other explicitly stipulated transitions.

Unsuccessful approach: Keeping old notifications visible leaks the prior account's surface.

Case contract

Notification surface account switch is a bounded visual-notification workflow with mutable policy state {'owner': 'a', 'rows': ['a-notice'], 'target': 'b', 'scrubbed': False}. Its default transition relation is {('account-a-visible', 'switch-to-b'): 'scrubbing-a', ('scrubbing-a', 'scrub-complete'): 'account-b-loading', ('account-b-loading', 'b-inbox-loaded'): 'account-b-visible', ('account-b-loading', 'b-inbox-failed'): 'switch-error', ('account-b-loading', 'late-a-response'): 'account-b-loading', ('switch-error', 'retry-b-load'): 'account-b-loading', ('account-b-visible', 'sign-out'): 'scrubbing-b', ('scrubbing-b', 'scrub-complete'): 'signed-out', ('signed-out', 'late-b-response'): 'signed-out', ('scrubbing-a', 'switch-back-to-a'): 'scrubbing-for-a'}; domain inputs can suppress or redirect transitions and update policy fields, as specified in solve. Different-generation events are inert. Batches apply in order. Optional observe returns the selected policy field alongside the phase.

Why this case matters

Visual notification lifecycle ordering can leave an inbox or toast showing the wrong actionable state even when transport succeeds.

Verification & scope

Stipulated single-notification state and policy model only. Event delivery and acknowledgements are explicit test inputs. No DOM, accessibility announcements, live timers, networking, actual rendering, or production-platform conformance is simulated. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
