Engineer applies a fix but can't verify yet (waiting on client power-cycle,
AD replication, async sync). Today the verifying banner forces a synchronous
verdict (worked / didn't / partial) — anything else means leaving the banner
stale or guessing wrong. This adds a fourth outcome that parks the fix in a
non-terminal "Awaiting verification" state with a reason ("waiting on what?")
and exposes it on the chat-anchored banner so the engineer doesn't lose track.
Backend
- New non-terminal status `applied_pending` parallel to `applied_partial`.
- New `pending_reason` column (nullable Text) — the "what are you waiting on?"
prose, mirrors `partial_notes`. Required when outcome=applied_pending.
- Outcome endpoint allows pending in/out transitions; pending stamps
applied_at but NOT verified_at (it's parked, not verified).
- Resolution-note + escalation-package prompts handle the new status:
resolution note frames the fix as provisional; escalation package surfaces
pending verification as the leading hypothesis with reference to what's
being waited on.
- Migration: add column + extend status CHECK constraint.
Frontend
- New `BannerMode = 'pending'` + `PendingBanner` component (info-tone,
parallel to PartialBanner) with worked / didn't / update-reason actions.
- VerifyingBanner overflow menu adds "Waiting to verify…".
- Nudge banner's "Still checking" button now actually records pending with
a reason, instead of just silencing for the session.
- AssistantChatPage banner-mode derivation maps applied_pending → 'pending'.
Tests: 4 new integration tests covering pending notes requirement, reason
storage + applied_at/verified_at semantics, pending→success transition,
and pending_reason update on re-PATCH.

Troubleshooting Decision Tree - Backend API
FastAPI backend for the Troubleshooting Decision Tree application.
Quick Start
1. Set up Python environment
cd backend
python -m venv venv
# Windows
venv\Scripts\activate
# macOS/Linux
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
2. Start PostgreSQL database
Using Docker:
docker-compose up -d
Or install PostgreSQL locally and create a database:
CREATE DATABASE decision_tree;
3. Configure environment
Copy the example env file and update as needed:
cp .env.example .env
4. Run database migrations
alembic upgrade head
5. Start the server
uvicorn app.main:app --reload --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
The API will be available at:
- API: http://localhost:8000
- Docs: http://localhost:8000/api/docs
- ReDoc: http://localhost:8000/api/redoc
