dependency edge reschedule
A new edge reschedules an unpinned downstream Task at once, whether POSTed or copied by a template apply on claim. A pinned one keeps its dates and flags dependency_violation.
Q Does adding a TaskDependency edge reschedule an unpinned downstream Task that now violates it, or does only a date write (probe 087)? Both for a direct create and for the edge the server copies on a claimed Task during a template apply (recipe 015).
Endpoint POST /entity/task_dependencies ; POST /entity/_batch ; PUT /entity/shots/<id> ; POST /entity/tasks/_search
Provisioned by the probe, no operator step: it makes the Shot, the 6 Tasks, the 3-task template and every edge, and deletes them; a read-back after the run finds no Task, template task, TaskDependency, template or Shot left.
Docs claim Silent on scheduling, and on what a template apply does to Tasks that already exist.
Actual
every Task created 2026-03-02..03-03 (Mon..Tue), dur 960; one per case set pinned=true first
(a) POST /entity/task_dependencies {task: dn|pn, dependent_task: up, finish-to-start-next-day} -> 201, 201
before up 03-02..03-03 dn 03-02..03-03 pinned=False violation=False pn 03-02..03-03 pinned=True violation=False
after up 03-02..03-03 dn 03-04..03-05 pinned=False violation=False pn 03-02..03-03 pinned=True violation=True
(b) template a, b, c undated; edges b on a, c on a, finish-to-start-next-day
Shot holds hand-made a, b, c with no edges; c pinned
_batch update template_task on a, b, c -> 200 dates, pinned and violation unchanged
PUT Shot task_template null -> 200; PUT Shot task_template tt -> 200; still 6 Tasks, none generated
TaskDependency b on a finish-to-start-next-day offset_days=None (copied)
TaskDependency c on a finish-to-start-next-day offset_days=None (copied)
before a 03-02..03-03 b 03-02..03-03 pinned=False violation=False c 03-02..03-03 pinned=True violation=False
after a 03-02..03-03 b 03-04..03-05 pinned=False violation=False c 03-02..03-03 pinned=True violation=True
3 s later: the same
Teaches
- An edge is a scheduling write. Creating one moves an unpinned downstream Task to satisfy it, the
same as the upstream date write of probe 087,
durationheld. The upstream Task does not move. - A template apply reschedules Tasks it did not create. The edge it copies between claimed Tasks
(recipe 015) moved
btwo days although no date was sent. Pin a Task whose dates a person chose before the apply, or restore its dates after. - A pinned downstream Task keeps its dates and reads
dependency_violationtrue from the moment the edge exists. Neither route sets or clearspinned. - The claim itself (
template_taskwritten) moves nothing, and the reschedule is done before thePUTreturns: a read 3 s later matched the first. The template's undated tasks copied no dates.
