feat(frontend): add cashier status bar and hardware drawer

[khaira777]

Intent

Clean frontline cashier status bar, remove duplicate cashier identity from title bar, add active shift and printer readiness status, and add slide-up hardware/telemetry drawer with print test and drawer kick

What Changed

• Show cashier identity, shift state, and printer status in the frontline bar; remove duplicate cashier identity from the desktop title bar and move system telemetry into a slide-up diagnostics drawer.
• Add drawer actions to test the default printer and pulse the cash drawer, with permission checks, an open-shift requirement for drawer kicks, and WebUSB delivery support.
• Update localized strings and API documentation, and add end-to-end coverage for the status bar, drawer behavior, permissions, and printer actions.

Risk Assessment

⚠️ Medium: The change adds bounded cashier status and hardware actions with server-side permission and open-shift checks, while introducing several new UI and printer state paths.

Testing

Built the backend and static frontend, then drove the focused browser flow against isolated E2E services. Live cash-session and permission APIs plus a disposable TCP printer exercised shift gating and both print actions; the Electron bridge and stale-response race used fixtures. Captured both UI screenshots and cleaned generated files. Temporary test setup assumptions about printer width and the server role's landing route were corrected before the final run.

• Live validation: ✅ go - 5 of 5 scenarios driven live against the product

Scenario	Result	Live	Evidence
Cashier sees the cleaned POS status bar without duplicate title-bar identity or support metrics.	✅ pass	live	Focused Playwright scenario; clean-frontline-status-bar.png
Closed and open cash sessions update shift status, and drawer kick is unavailable until a shift is open.	✅ pass	live	Focused Playwright scenario; clean-frontline-status-bar.png
Cashier opens the diagnostics drawer, sees hardware actions and telemetry, and can close it with keyboard or backdrop controls.	✅ pass	live	Focused Playwright scenario; open-telemetry-drawer.png
Cashier sends a test print and drawer pulse through the configured printer.	✅ pass	live	Focused Playwright scenario; disposable local TCP printer captured receipt and drawer-pulse bytes.
A server-role user cannot kick the drawer.	✅ pass	live	Focused Playwright scenario; live drawer-kick request returned HTTP 403 for the server role.

• 🚨 frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:184 - A user without both cash.movements.manage and printing.execute gets 403 from main/routes/printers.ts:504, but this catch branch still sends the pulse directly through printerService (StatusBar.tsx:186), bypassing the route’s authorization. On other API failures, the fallback can also pulse a locally connected printer different from the active printer selected by the route. Do not perform the local fallback after authorization failure, and keep fallback dispatch aligned with the authorized active printer.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:219 - The closed drawer remains mounted and is only moved offscreen with opacity and pointer-event styling (StatusBar.tsx:219-223), which leaves its controls keyboard-focusable. Tabbing to the hidden Kick button (StatusBar.tsx:269-270) and pressing Enter can physically open the cash drawer; the hidden test-print button (StatusBar.tsx:254-255) is reachable too. Remove closed controls from the tab order and accessibility tree, and return focus to the toggle when closing.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:91 - Any failed /cash-sessions/current request is converted to null here; StatusBar.tsx:149 then treats it as a confirmed closed shift and StatusBar.tsx:418 displays “Open shift.” A timeout while a shift is open, or a 403 for a role without cash.shifts.view, therefore shows the wrong state. Preserve an unknown/error state separately from a successful response containing null.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:145 - The criterion is “add ... printer readiness status,” but this indicator can report the opposite of the printer’s usable state. GET /printers requires printers.manage; refreshHardwarePrinter catches a denied request and leaves hardwarePrinter null, while printerConnStatus only reflects the browser printer. A cashier/server with printing.execute can therefore print through a configured network printer while this bar says Offline (StatusBar.tsx:145, 396). Conversely, an authorized user sees Ready whenever printer configuration exists, even if the network printer is unreachable (StatusBar.tsx:145, 378, 382). Decide whether readiness means configured or live, and whether a minimal readiness signal may be shown to print-authorized frontline roles; the existing printer-management boundary does not establish that policy or provide live network health.

• 🚨 main/routes/printers.ts:504 - The new route allows anyone with printing.execute alone to send a physical drawer pulse. By default, server has printing.execute but not cash.movements.manage; a server can POST /api/printers/kick-drawer and open the configured network, USB, or WebUSB drawer. The status bar exposes this action at frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:269-270. Repository policy does not establish whether print permission grants independent drawer access; confirm which roles may kick the drawer before settling this gate.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:186 - Round 1 removed the API-error fallback, but the authorized WebUSB success path still does not target the configured printer: this route selects the database default (or first) printer and returns bytes, while the status bar sends them through the global printerService. Its reconnect path uses navigator.usb.getDevices()[0], so with two granted devices, device A first and device B configured as default, the kick opens A's drawer. The same mismatch affects test printing at main/routes/printers.ts:600 and frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:165-167. Correcting this needs an explicit configured-printer-to-browser-device mapping or selection policy, which the current records do not establish; that remedy needs authorization.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:151 - The unresolved printer-readiness finding remains: hardwarePrinter !== null means a printer is configured, not that it is reachable, so an offline network printer can show Ready. Conversely, frontline users without printers.manage cannot load the printer list (GET /printers is gated at main/routes/printers.ts:183), so a usable configured network printer can show Offline. Decide whether this indicator means configured or live readiness, and whether print-authorized frontline roles may receive the signal; the current policy and endpoint do not settle either question. The same status rendering is at lines 378-396.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:90 - Round 1 distinguishes fetch errors from a confirmed closed shift, but successful overlapping requests can still overwrite newer state. For example, a poll reads an open shift, the close event triggers a newer request that returns null, then the delayed poll response sets the status back to open until the next poll. Add a request-generation guard for the poll and event-triggered fetches; the event sources are frontend/src/hooks/useCashSession.ts:133,158.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:231 - The new drawer's visible labels and accessibility names are hardcoded in English, so users in other supported locales see an untranslated drawer while the status indicators use translations. This includes the drawer heading, section headings, metric labels, action buttons, close/dialog labels, and telemetry trigger at frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:219,242,248,264,279,288,293,306,318,442-445. Use the existing translation catalogs for these strings.

Round 2 addressed the API-error fallback but left this permission choice open. Repository policy does not establish whether print permission alone grants physical drawer access. Confirm which roles may kick the drawer before settling this gate.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:190 - Round 2 removed the error-path fallback but left the WebUSB success path targeting the global printerService, not the configured printer. For example, with WebUSB device B configured as default and device A currently connected, this sends B's kick bytes to A. The endpoint returns bytes without a printer identity (main/routes/printers.ts:534-535); the same mismatch affects test printing (StatusBar.tsx:165-170, main/routes/printers.ts:599-600). Choosing a device mapping requires an explicit selection policy, so that remedy needs authorization.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:154 - The intent requires a “printer readiness status,” but this predicate treats any configured printer as ready even when it is unreachable. Conversely, a server with printing.execute can print, but cannot read the printer list (main/routes/printers.ts:183); refreshHardwarePrinter converts that denial to null (frontend/src/hooks/usePrinter.ts:175-185), so the bar reports Offline.

The display is at StatusBar.tsx:374-400.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:192 - The Round 2 localization change translated the drawer controls but left this success toast using settings.cashDrawerPulse, whose English value is “Open cash drawer on checkout” (frontend/src/lib/i18n/messages/en.json:1648). A successful kick therefore reports the setting label instead of confirming the action. The failure fallback at line 196 is also hardcoded English. Use accurate translated action feedback.

The 80f3347 fallback-removal fix removed the error-path bypass but left this successful WebUSB dispatch mismatch. The current printer records do not establish a device-matching policy; choosing one requires authorization.

This includes the drawer heading, section headings, metric labels, action buttons, close/dialog labels, and telemetry trigger at frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:219,242,248,264,279,288,293,306,318,442-445. Use the existing translation catalogs for these strings.
• ⚠️ main/routes/printers.ts:504 - A server has printing.execute by default (shared/permissions.ts:121, shared/role-permissions.ts:28) and can POST this route to pulse the configured drawer; the status-bar action is at frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:272-273. Round 2 addressed the API-error fallback but left this permission choice open. Repository policy does not establish whether print permission alone grants physical drawer access. Confirm which roles may kick the drawer before settling this gate.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:190 - Round 2 removed the error-path fallback but left the WebUSB success path targeting the global printerService, not the configured printer. For example, with WebUSB device B configured as default and device A currently connected, this sends B's kick bytes to A. The endpoint returns bytes without a printer identity (main/routes/printers.ts:534-535); the same mismatch affects test printing (StatusBar.tsx:165-170, main/routes/printers.ts:599-600). Choosing a device mapping requires an explicit selection policy, so that remedy needs authorization.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:154 - The intent requires a “printer readiness status,” but this predicate treats any configured printer as ready even when it is unreachable. Conversely, a server with printing.execute can print, but cannot read the printer list (main/routes/printers.ts:183); refreshHardwarePrinter converts that denial to null (frontend/src/hooks/usePrinter.ts:175-185), so the bar reports Offline. The previous readiness finding remains unresolved. Decide whether this means configured or live readiness, and which print-authorized roles may see the status; source does not settle either behavior. The display is at StatusBar.tsx:374-400.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:192 - The Round 2 localization change translated the drawer controls but left this success toast using settings.cashDrawerPulse, whose English value is “Open cash drawer on checkout” (frontend/src/lib/i18n/messages/en.json:1648). A successful kick therefore reports the setting label instead of confirming the action. The failure fallback at line 196 is also hardcoded English. Use accurate translated action feedback.
• ⚠️ main/routes/printers.ts:504 - requireAnyPermission accepts either permission, so a default server role with printing.execute can POST /api/printers/kick-drawer; this route sends a pulse to the configured printer at main/routes/printers.ts:520-535, and the status bar exposes the action at frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:273. The repository does not establish whether print permission alone authorizes manually opening the cash drawer. Confirm which roles may use this physical action before merge.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:154 - The readiness predicate treats any configured non-WebUSB printer as ready, without checking whether it can print. An offline configured network printer therefore shows Ready at frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:374-399. Conversely, cashiers and servers with printing.execute can print through /test-active but cannot load the printer list: GET /printers requires printers.manage and refreshHardwarePrinter converts its denial to null (frontend/src/hooks/usePrinter.ts:173-185, main/routes/printers.ts:183), so the bar shows Offline. The intent asks for printer readiness, but source does not settle whether that means configured or reachable, or which frontline roles may see the signal. Confirm those semantics and access policy.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:190 - With WebUSB devices A and B both previously granted, A listed first, and B configured as the default printer, PrinterService.tryReconnect() can connect to A (frontend/src/lib/printer/PrinterService.ts:192-196). The new endpoints return bytes for B without identifying the device (main/routes/printers.ts:535,600), but the status bar sends them through the shared service (frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:169,190), so a test print goes to A and the drawer kick can open A's drawer. The 80f3347 fallback-removal fix removed the error-path bypass but left this successful WebUSB dispatch mismatch. The current printer records do not establish a device-matching policy; choosing one requires authorization.
• ⚠️ main/routes/printers.ts:197 - The latest fix round (4a4c025) grants printing.execute access to GET /printers, then returns the full printerShape for the default printer. That shape includes ip_address, port, and cash_drawer_pulse_enabled (main/routes/printers.ts:159-168). A default server can therefore read the store’s printer network address. The intent authorizes default-printer readiness, while printers.manage is separately marked sensitive and restricted by default. Please confirm whether print-only staff may read this configuration or narrow the response to the readiness fields.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:172 - The latest fix round (4a4c025) added WebUSB dispatch checks but left this readiness predicate checking only connection status and product-name equality. With a connected matching WebUSB printer and printMethod === 'browser', the bar says Ready, but printToConfiguredDevice rejects the action (frontend/src/lib/printer/PrinterService.ts:210-211). The same false Ready state occurs when two granted devices share the configured product name; dispatch rejects the ambiguous match at PrinterService.ts:221-222. Both test print and drawer kick use this dispatch path (StatusBar.tsx:189-190, 206-207). Please decide how these configurations should behave and align the status and actions; distinguishing identical devices may require a configured device identity beyond the current printer name.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:271 - The 80f3347 fix round gated the drawer-kick button but left the test-print button visible to roles without printing.execute. StatusBar is rendered for the whole dashboard, so a default chef can open it and click Test print; /printers/test-active then returns 403 (main/routes/printers.ts:569). Gate this button with the same client-side permission check used for drawer kick.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx:373 - The moved identity keeps the email fallback (StatusBar.tsx:155) but renders it as ordinary text here. When a user has no name and an email, RTL locales can reorder the address; the previous title bar wrapped this same fallback in Ltr. Preserve that direction wrapper for email identities.

🔧 Fix applied.

• 🚨 main/routes/printers.ts:504 - The new route allows anyone with printing.execute alone to send a physical drawer pulse. By default, server has printing.execute but not cash.movements.manage; a server can POST /api/printers/kick-drawer and open the configured network, USB, or WebUSB drawer.

Please confirm whether print-only staff may read this configuration or narrow the response to the readiness fields.
• ⚠️ main/routes/printers.ts:631 - Round 5 narrowed GET /printers, but the new action endpoints still expose the configured network printer address on failure. For an unavailable printer at 10.0.0.15:9100, printViaNetwork returns that IP and port in its timeout detail (main/printers/thermal.ts:3757-3764); /test-active copies it into both error and detail here, and /kick-drawer does the same at main/routes/printers.ts:565-567. The status bar displays the error in its toast (StatusBar.tsx:245,262-264). Please decide whether users with printing.execute or cash.movements.manage may see this network metadata; if not, return a generic client error and keep the diagnostic detail server-side.
• ⚠️ frontend/src/hooks/usePrinter.ts:187 - Round 5 added the readiness-only response and maps it into HardwarePrinter while discarding readiness_state: 'configured'. A user with printing.execute and an unreachable default network printer therefore gets a non-null hardwarePrinter; the POS toolbar treats that as connected and shows its green ready indicator (PrinterStatus.tsx:47-50,69,123-127). Preserve the configured-only distinction so configuration alone does not report a live connection. The separate status bar already renders this state as configured (StatusBar.tsx:466-470).

Walkthrough

The printer API adds role-scoped listing and default-printer actions. The frontend adds a cashier status bar with printer and shift indicators, hardware actions, and a diagnostics drawer. WebUSB actions require a unique configured-device match.

Changes

Cashier and Printer Flow

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Default printer API and access main/routes/printers.ts, docs/reference/api.md, tests/printer-api.test.ts	The printer list returns full details to managers and default-printer readiness fields to printing-only users. New endpoints kick the drawer and test the default printer. API tests cover permissions, shift requirements, WebUSB responses, and network failures.
Configured WebUSB device handling frontend/src/lib/printer/PrinterService.ts, tests/printer-api.test.ts	PrinterService checks exact, unique product-name matches, reports configured-device readiness, and sends action bytes to the matching device. Tests cover unique and ambiguous matches.
Cashier, shift, and printer status frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx, frontend/src/components/layout/TitleBar.tsx, frontend/src/components/pos/PrinterStatus.tsx, frontend/src/hooks/useCashSession.ts, frontend/src/hooks/usePrinter.ts, frontend/src/lib/i18n/messages/*.json	The status bar shows cashier identity, printer state, and shift state. Shift changes trigger session refreshes. Configured-but-not-ready hardware receives a distinct status, and locale files add the corresponding label.
Diagnostics drawer and printer actions frontend/src/components/layout/StatusBar.tsx, frontend/src/lib/i18n/messages/*.json, frontend/e2e/cashier-status-bar.spec.ts	The drawer displays telemetry and provides permission-gated test-print and drawer-kick actions. It supports keyboard focus and close behavior. Locale files add action messages and revised WebUSB setup guidance. End-to-end tests cover drawer interactions and printer actions.

The feature looks mergeable with small follow-ups. The end-to-end test should clean up the printer and shift it creates, and test-print should return a clear error for an unsupported printer type.

frontend/src/components/pos/PrinterStatus.tsx (1)

70-75: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

effectiveStatus can no longer show "connected" for a hardware printer.

refreshHardwarePrinter now sets readiness_state: 'configured' on every printer it fetches. As a result, isConfiguredOnly is always true when hardwarePrinter is set. The 'connected' branch and the green dot can no longer be reached. Remove those dead branches, or set readiness_state from a real readiness signal.
