Plast Track MVP - Codex Prompt & UI Instructions

1. Codex Task Prompt

Use this as the top-level prompt when opening a Codex session on this repository.

You are working on Plast Track MVP - a lightweight MES/IoT dashboard for
supervising multi-brand injection molding machines. The stack is:

  Backend   FastAPI + PostgreSQL + Mosquitto MQTT (Python)
  Frontend  React + TypeScript (Vite, port 5173)
  Infra     Docker Compose

Repository layout:
  /backend          FastAPI app, MQTT consumer, OEE logic, WebSocket
  /frontend         React + TypeScript operator dashboard
  /edge-simulator   Publishes simulated MQTT machine events
  /database         init.sql + seed.sql
  /mqtt             mosquitto.conf
  docker-compose.yml

Key rules:
- Never send commands back to the machines. Acquisition is read-only / passive.
- All timestamps are UTC ISO-8601.
- OEE = Availability x Performance x Quality (see README for exact formulas).
- The WebSocket at /ws/dashboard pushes refresh notifications; the UI then
  refetches via REST. Do not push full payloads over the socket.
- Machine status values: production | arret_non_qualifie | arret_qualifie |
  reglage | hors_planning

Before writing code:
1. Read the relevant backend route or model file first.
2. Confirm the PostgreSQL schema in /database/init.sql for any DB changes.
3. Run `pytest` in /backend and `npm run build` in /frontend to verify changes.
4. Keep backend business logic inside service modules, not route handlers.
5. For frontend changes, follow the UI instructions below.

2. UI Instructions for Codex

Paste these instructions into any Codex task that touches the frontend.

2.1 Design System - Non-Negotiable Tokens

All visual decisions must derive from these tokens. Do not introduce new color hex values, font families, or border-radius values without updating this table.

Colors

Token name Hex Role
--bg-base #F5F7FA Page background
--bg-panel #FFFFFF Panel and card surface
--bg-panel-alt derived Alternate very light gray surface
--border derived Anthracite tint border
--teal-900 #0A2F5A Primary industrial blue structure
--teal-700 derived Darker industrial blue
--teal-100 derived Industrial blue tint
--accent #F28C28 Technical orange accent and CTA
--accent-light derived Technical orange tint
--text-primary #2B2B2B Anthracite body text
--text-secondary derived Anthracite metadata tint
--text-on-dark #FFFFFF Text on dark surfaces
--status-production #0A2F5A Industrial blue, machine running
--status-unqualified #F28C28 Technical orange, unqualified stop
--status-qualified #2B2B2B Anthracite, qualified stop
--status-setup derived Blue/orange mix, setup / reglage
--status-off-plan derived Anthracite tint, outside planning

Typography

Role Font family Weight Usage
Display / KPI Space Grotesk 600 Headings, large numbers, machine codes
Body / UI Instrument Sans 400 Labels, descriptions, form fields
Body emphasis Instrument Sans 600 Sub-headings, table headers
Caption / meta Instrument Sans 400 Small labels, timestamps, hints

Type scale:

--text-xs: 0.75rem;
--text-sm: 0.875rem;
--text-base: 1rem;
--text-lg: 1.125rem;
--text-xl: 1.25rem;
--text-2xl: 1.5rem;
--text-3xl: 2rem;

Surfaces

border-radius: 12px;
box-shadow: 0 1px 3px rgba(10, 47, 90, 0.06), 0 4px 12px rgba(10, 47, 90, 0.04);

Selected card:

box-shadow: 0 4px 16px rgba(10, 47, 90, 0.12), 0 0 0 2px var(--accent);

Inset surfaces:

background: var(--bg-panel-alt);
border: 1px solid var(--border);
border-radius: 6px;

2.2 Layout Rules

The current UI uses a tabbed module workspace, not a fixed action sidebar.

Hero Header
Summary Ribbon
Module Tabs
Current Module Panel

Current modules:

  • Atelier: machine cards, filters, sorting, quick actions, fullscreen workshop mode
  • Machine: selected machine detail, cycle trend, events, downtime history
  • TRS: daily OEE/TRS
  • OF: production order creation and management
  • Arrets: downtime qualification
  • Rebuts: scrap declaration and scrap log
  • Config: passive signal and timing configuration

Responsive rules:

  • Desktop: centered workspace, full tab row, split form/list modules where useful.
  • Tablet: tabs wrap, form/list modules stack.
  • Mobile: single column, no horizontal page scroll.

2.3 Component Conventions

Machine Card

  • Card uses min-height: 180px.
  • Machine code uses Space Grotesk 600, --text-xl.
  • Status badge uses tokenized status color and text label.
  • State duration badge shows elapsed time since status_since.
  • No active order state must be visually distinct.
  • Quick actions route to OF, Rebuts, or Arrets modules.
  • Selected state uses the elevated box-shadow; do not use outline for the selected ring.

Status Badge

Use <StatusBadge status="production" />. Always include a text label; color is never the only state indicator.

KPI Block

Use for summary and machine detail metrics:

  • label: --text-xs, uppercase, --text-secondary
  • value: --text-2xl, Space Grotesk 600
  • optional sub-label: --text-xs, --text-secondary

Forms

  • Fields use full width, border-radius: 6px, border: 1px solid var(--border), padding: 8px 12px.
  • Primary action button uses var(--accent), border-radius: 8px, Space Grotesk 600.
  • Inline validation appears below the field in --status-qualified.
  • API errors appear inside the active module, not as global alerts.
  • Success toasts appear inline and auto-dismiss after 3 seconds.

Cycle Bar Mini-Chart

  • Use SVG directly; no third-party charting library.
  • Newest cycle appears on the right.
  • Theoretical cycle is a dashed --teal-100 reference line.
  • Bars at or below theoretical are green.
  • Bars above theoretical by more than 10% are orange.
  • Tooltip shows exact cycle time in seconds.

2.4 Interaction Rules

Trigger Expected behavior
Click machine card body Selects machine and opens Machine module
Click quick OF action Selects machine and opens OF module
Click quick Rebut Selects machine and opens Rebuts module
Click quick Arret Selects machine and opens Arrets module
WebSocket refresh event Re-fetch dashboard data without unmount flash
Submit downtime qualify Validate inline, send REST request, refresh on success
Submit scrap Validate inline, clear form on success
Create production order Add order; do not auto-start unless user starts it

Data fetching:

  • REST calls go to http://localhost:8000/api/....
  • WebSocket connects to ws://localhost:8000/ws/dashboard.
  • On WS disconnect, show a small reconnecting banner and retry with exponential backoff up to 30 seconds.
  • Do not poll. Refresh is WebSocket-driven.

2.5 Accessibility Minimums

  • Interactive elements must be reachable by keyboard.
  • Status colors must have text labels.
  • Touch targets should be at least 44px high.
  • Respect prefers-reduced-motion.
  • Body text on panel backgrounds must pass WCAG AA contrast.

2.6 File Conventions

What Where
Global CSS variables / resets frontend/src/styles.css
Root app layout frontend/src/App.tsx
Machine card component frontend/src/components/MachineCard.tsx
Reusable panel wrapper frontend/src/components/Panel.tsx
New components frontend/src/components/<ComponentName>.tsx
Types frontend/src/lib/types.ts

Rules:

  • One component per file.
  • No inline styles in TSX.
  • No Tailwind.
  • No UI component library.
  • No charting library for cycle bars.
  • No machine command/control path.
  • No localStorage for production state.

2.7 Suggested Next Tasks

  1. Add historian-style OEE and scrap reporting endpoints.
  2. Add edge gateway buffering for MQTT outage periods.
  3. Add a real passive gateway adapter specification with example payload mappings.
  4. Add operator and supervisor views when role needs are defined.
  5. Add richer downtime timelines and duration buckets.
