Every JobApplication gets a dedicated workspace at /applications/{id} — a
surface, not a new data store. It owns no data and duplicates none: CV comes
from the Phase 4 CvVariant lens, analysis/match/interview from the existing
AiWorkspacePanel, documents from Attachments, communication from
Correspondence, activity from JobEvent, stage semantics from JobPipeline. No
career data is copied and nothing here writes.
- GET /api/jobapplications/{id}/workspace: one aggregate read (role, company,
stage, dates, attached CV variant, cover letter, documents, AI history,
recent activity) replacing the page fanning out across endpoints
- Next recommended action: ordered rules answering "what do I do next?", the
core product principle for this phase
- ApplicationWorkspacePage: left nav + linkable ?section=, reusing the existing
component for each domain; later-milestone sections say so rather than faking
- Entry point from the job dialog via an optional onOpenWorkspace callback —
the dialog must not depend on router context (it is mounted without a
<Router> in several suites), so the caller owns navigation
- 8 backend tests (aggregate, CV variant surfacing, counts, activity ordering,
next-step rules, tenant scoping)
Local: 314 backend, 88/88 frontend (31 suites), tsc clean, production build ok.
