# Dependency graph
requires:
  - phase: 03-collapsible-dashboard-sections/03-01
    provides: CollapsibleSections component, CategorySection component, carryover display
  - phase: 02-dashboard-charts-and-layout
    provides: DashboardContent structure, useBudgetDetail hook, chart layout
provides:
  - groupedSections useMemo deriving non-empty category groups from budget items
  - openSections state with direction-aware smart defaults (over-budget expanded)
  - Month-navigation state reset via key={budgetId} on DashboardContent
  - CollapsibleSections integrated between chart grid and QuickAdd button
  - DashboardSkeleton updated with section header placeholders
affects:
  - Phase 04 (any further dashboard enhancements will build on this layout)

# Tech tracking
tech-stack:
  added: []
  patterns:
    - "key prop state reset: DashboardContent keyed by budgetId to reset all local state on month navigation"
    - "direction-aware budget logic: income/saving/investment over-budget when actual < budgeted; bill/variable_expense/debt over when actual > budgeted"
    - "lazy useState initializer: groupedSections-derived open state initialized once via () => callback"

key-files:
  created: []
  modified:
    - src/pages/DashboardPage.tsx
    - src/components/dashboard/DashboardSkeleton.tsx

key-decisions:
  - "key prop state reset over useEffect: keying DashboardContent by budgetId causes full remount on month change, cleanly resetting openSections without violating react-hooks/set-state-in-effect or react-hooks/refs lint rules"
  - "isOverBudget placed at module level as pure helper for reuse in useState initializer and documentation clarity"
  - "CATEGORY_TYPES_ALL includes income first (income -> bill -> variable_expense -> debt -> saving -> investment) to match logical reading order in the dashboard sections area"

patterns-established:
  - "key prop state reset: use key={derivedId} on inner content components to reset all local state on ID change — avoids useEffect+setState pattern flagged by strict linters"

# Phase 3 Plan 02: Dashboard Collapsible Sections Integration Summary

**Collapsible per-category sections wired into DashboardContent with direction-aware smart expand defaults, month-navigation state reset via key prop, and updated DashboardSkeleton.**

## Performance

- **Duration:** 2 min
- **Started:** 2026-03-17T14:11:14Z
- **Completed:** 2026-03-17T14:13:56Z
- **Tasks:** 1 auto (1 checkpoint auto-approved)
- **Files modified:** 2

## Accomplishments
- Integrated CollapsibleSections between chart grid and QuickAdd in DashboardContent
- groupedSections useMemo filters empty category groups and computes budgeted/actual totals per group
- Direction-aware isOverBudget helper correctly expands overspent expense sections and under-earned income/saving/investment sections on load
- State resets cleanly on month navigation using key={budgetId} on DashboardContent (avoids useEffect+setState lint violations)
- DashboardSkeleton updated with 3 section header placeholders matching real CategorySection header structure

## Task Commits

Each task was committed atomically:

1. **Task 1: Wire collapsible sections into DashboardContent with smart defaults** - `9a8d13f` (feat)
2. **Task 2: Verify collapsible sections and carryover display** - checkpoint:human-verify (auto-approved, no commit)

**Plan metadata:** (docs commit — see final commit)

## Files Created/Modified
- `/home/jlmak/Projects/jlmak/SimpleFinanceDash/src/pages/DashboardPage.tsx` - Added CATEGORY_TYPES_ALL, isOverBudget helper, groupedSections useMemo, openSections useState, handleToggleSection callback, CollapsibleSections JSX insertion, key={budgetId} on DashboardContent
- `/home/jlmak/Projects/jlmak/SimpleFinanceDash/src/components/dashboard/DashboardSkeleton.tsx` - Added 3 skeleton section header rows after chart grid skeleton

## Decisions Made
- **key prop state reset over useEffect:** The plan specified `useEffect(() => { setOpenSections(...) }, [budgetId])` for month navigation reset. This triggered `react-hooks/set-state-in-effect` and `react-hooks/refs` errors with the strict linter. Used `key={currentBudget.id}` on `DashboardContent` instead — causes full remount on month change, cleanly resetting all local state without effect side effects.
- **isOverBudget at module level:** Placed as pure function alongside constants for clarity and to enable reuse in the `useState` lazy initializer.
- **CATEGORY_TYPES_ALL order:** income first, then expense types, matching the logical top-to-bottom financial reading order (income earned → bills → variable → debt → savings → investments).

## Deviations from Plan

### Auto-fixed Issues

**1. [Rule 1 - Bug] Replaced useEffect+setState with key prop state reset**
- **Found during:** Task 1 (lint verification step)
- **Issue:** Plan-specified `useEffect(() => setOpenSections(...), [budgetId])` triggered `react-hooks/set-state-in-effect` error. Attempted `useRef` comparison during render — triggered `react-hooks/refs` error. Both patterns rejected by the project's strict linter.
- **Fix:** Removed useEffect entirely. Added `key={currentBudget.id}` to `<DashboardContent>` in DashboardPage. When `budgetId` changes, React unmounts and remounts DashboardContent, resetting all local state including `openSections` (which re-initializes from `groupedSections` via the lazy `useState` initializer).
- **Files modified:** `src/pages/DashboardPage.tsx`
- **Verification:** `npx eslint src/pages/DashboardPage.tsx` — no errors. `bun run build` passes.
- **Committed in:** `9a8d13f` (Task 1 commit)

---

**Total deviations:** 1 auto-fixed (1 bug — lint-incompatible pattern replaced with idiomatic React)
**Impact on plan:** Fix improves code quality. key-prop reset is the canonical React pattern for this use case. Functional behavior is identical: openSections resets to smart defaults on month navigation.

## Issues Encountered
- Strict linter (`react-hooks/set-state-in-effect`, `react-hooks/refs`) rejected two approaches before key-prop solution was used. All pre-existing lint errors (MonthNavigator, badge.tsx, button.tsx, sidebar.tsx, useBudgets.ts) remain as documented in STATE.md — not caused by this plan.

## User Setup Required
None - no external service configuration required.

## Next Phase Readiness
- Phase 3 is now complete: CollapsibleSections fully integrated into the live dashboard with all state management
- Dashboard hybrid view delivers the full financial picture: SummaryStrip -> charts -> collapsible category sections -> QuickAdd
- Phase 4 can build additional features on this complete dashboard foundation
