+# Plan: Render Goal
+
+## Goal Summary
+
+Display the room's active mission(s) in the UI so users can always see the current goal title, type,
+autonomy level, and status without navigating to the Missions tab. The feature has two surfaces:
+
+1. A **Mission Summary banner** in `RoomDashboard` (the Overview tab) — shows all active goals with
+   their key metadata and a "View Missions" shortcut link.
+2. Enhanced **sidebar goal rows** in `RoomContextPanel` — add type and autonomy-level badges next to
+   each goal's title/status dot.
+
+Both surfaces reuse the same badge sub-components, which are extracted from `GoalsEditor.tsx` into a
+new shared file `MissionBadges.tsx` to avoid code duplication and satisfy the Knip dead-export check.
+
+## Approach
+
+- Extract `StatusIndicator`, `MissionTypeBadge`, and `AutonomyBadge` from `GoalsEditor.tsx` into
+  `packages/web/src/components/room/MissionBadges.tsx` and re-export them through
+  `packages/web/src/components/room/index.ts`.
+- Update `GoalsEditor.tsx` to import from `MissionBadges.tsx` (no behavioral change).
+- Add a `MissionSummary` sub-component inside `RoomDashboard.tsx` that reads
+  `roomStore.activeGoals.value` and renders a compact card for each active goal.
+- Enhance the sidebar goal rows in `RoomContextPanel.tsx` to show the mission type badge and
+  autonomy indicator inline.
+
+All changes are purely additive UI work; no backend changes are needed.
+
+---
+
+## Tasks
+
+### Task 1 — Extract shared mission badge components
+
+**Description:**
+Move the three badge sub-components out of `GoalsEditor.tsx` and into a new dedicated file so they
+can be consumed by both the dashboard and the sidebar without duplicating code.
+
+**Subtasks (ordered):**
+
+1. Create `packages/web/src/components/room/MissionBadges.tsx`.
+   Export `StatusIndicator`, `MissionTypeBadge`, and `AutonomyBadge` as named exports. Copy the
+   existing implementations verbatim from `GoalsEditor.tsx` (lines ~136–208), keeping the `cn`
+   import from `../../lib/utils` and the Preact automatic JSX runtime.
+2. In `GoalsEditor.tsx`, replace the three inline component definitions with imports from
+   `./MissionBadges`. Verify no behavioral changes.
+3. Add the three exports to `packages/web/src/components/room/index.ts` with `@public` comments,
+   so Knip treats them as live exports.
+4. Run `bun run typecheck` and `bun run lint` to confirm no type errors or lint violations.
+
+**Acceptance criteria:**
+- `MissionBadges.tsx` exists and exports `StatusIndicator`, `MissionTypeBadge`, `AutonomyBadge`.
+- `GoalsEditor.tsx` no longer defines those components inline; it imports them.
+- `index.ts` re-exports all three.
+- `bun run typecheck` and `bun run lint` pass.
+
+**Dependencies:** none
+
+**Agent type:** coder
+
+Changes must be on a feature branch with a GitHub PR created via `gh pr create`.
+
+---
+
+### Task 2 — Add Mission Summary panel to RoomDashboard (Overview tab)
+
+**Description:**
+Insert a "Missions" section at the top of the Overview tab dashboard so users immediately see active
+goals when they open a room.
+
+**Subtasks (ordered):**
+
+1. In `RoomDashboard.tsx`, import `StatusIndicator`, `MissionTypeBadge`, `AutonomyBadge` from
+   `./MissionBadges` (created in Task 1).
+2. Read `roomStore.activeGoals.value` at the top of the `RoomDashboard` function body.
+3. Add a `MissionSummary` sub-component (local to the file) that receives `goals: RoomGoal[]` and
+   renders:
+   - A section heading "Active Missions" with a "View all" button that sets
+     `currentRoomTabSignal.value = 'goals'`.
+   - One compact card per goal showing: title (truncated, full text in `title` attribute),
+     `StatusIndicator`, `MissionTypeBadge` (when `goal.missionType` is present), and `AutonomyBadge`
+     (when `goal.autonomyLevel` is present).
+   - A progress bar using `goal.progress` (0–100) when `goal.progress > 0`.
+   - An empty state message "No active missions" when `goals.length === 0`.
+4. Place the `<MissionSummary>` component above the Runtime state card, at the very top of the
+   dashboard's `<div class="p-4 space-y-6">`.
+5. Run `bun run typecheck` and `bun run lint`.
+
+**Acceptance criteria:**
+- The Overview tab shows an "Active Missions" section.
+- Each active goal displays title, status indicator, mission type badge (when set), and autonomy
+  badge (when set).
+- Progress bar renders when `goal.progress > 0`.
+- "View all" / "No active missions" empty state work correctly.
+- No console errors; typecheck and lint pass.

+
+### Task 3 — Enhance sidebar goal rows with type and autonomy badges
+
+**Description:**
+The sidebar `RoomContextPanel` already lists active goals but only shows the title and a color dot.
+Enhance each goal row to also show the mission type and autonomy level, making the sidebar
+information-dense without becoming cluttered.
+
+**Subtasks (ordered):**
+
+1. In `RoomContextPanel.tsx`, import `MissionTypeBadge` and `AutonomyBadge` from
+   `../components/room/MissionBadges`.
+2. Inside the `activeGoals.map(...)` block (around line 313), update the goal `<button>` row to
+   add `MissionTypeBadge` and `AutonomyBadge` after the goal title span, wrapped in a
+   `flex items-center gap-1` container. Show `MissionTypeBadge` only when `goal.missionType` is
+   defined; show `AutonomyBadge` only when `goal.autonomyLevel` is defined.
+   Keep the existing expand/collapse arrow and status dot unchanged.
+3. Constrain badge font size to `text-[10px]` or use the existing badge styles (already `text-xs`)
+   so rows remain compact at the sidebar's typical ~200 px width.
+4. Run `bun run typecheck` and `bun run lint`.
+
+**Acceptance criteria:**
+- Each active goal row in the sidebar shows the mission type badge (when set) and autonomy badge
+  (when set) alongside the existing title and status dot.
+- Expand/collapse behavior is unchanged.
+- Sidebar layout does not overflow or wrap awkwardly on narrow viewports.
+- Typecheck and lint pass.

+**Dependencies:** Task 1

+
+### Task 4 — Vitest unit tests for MissionBadges and MissionSummary
+
+**Description:**
+Add lightweight unit tests to cover the new shared badge components and the dashboard's mission
+summary rendering.
+
+**Subtasks (ordered):**
+
+1. Create `packages/web/src/components/room/MissionBadges.test.tsx`.
+   Test that `StatusIndicator`, `MissionTypeBadge`, and `AutonomyBadge` render expected text/class
+   content for each valid input variant using `@testing-library/preact` (or the project's existing
+   Vitest+jsdom setup).
+2. Create `packages/web/src/components/room/RoomDashboard.test.tsx` (or extend if it already
+   exists). Mock `roomStore.activeGoals` signal to return a list of fake goals and assert:
+   - "Active Missions" heading is present.
+   - Goal title text is rendered.
+   - Empty state "No active missions" renders when the list is empty.
+3. Run `make test-web` to confirm all web tests pass.
+
+**Acceptance criteria:**
+- Both test files exist and all tests pass under `make test-web`.
+- Coverage includes all three badge variants and empty/non-empty mission summary states.
+
+**Dependencies:** Task 1, Task 2

+**Agent type:** coder
