Activity Manifest Readability — Step 2: Feature Description
Problem
Activity cards repeat source/signature filenames above the commit manifest, and inline manifest paths are hard to scan.
User Stories
As an activity reader, I want each changed file path on its own line so that commit contents are easy to scan.
As an activity reader, I want a file listed once per card so that the audit context is not repetitive.
Core Requirements
Put every non-public-key manifest file path on a new line beneath its status and role.
Retain public-key filenames inline with
Public key:.Omit source/signature file listings above the manifest when the manifest is present.
Keep the same behavior and information in Classic Activity and Forte Activity.
Shared Component Inventory
templates/partials/activity_commit_manifest.php— extend as the shared file-list presentation for both views.templates/pages/activity.phpandtemplates/partials/paned_activity_detail_pane.php— remove only the duplicated activity source/signature display while retaining their existing event context.templates/partials/source_metadata.php— retain unchanged for post pages.
User Flow
A reader opens an activity item in either view.
The card shows its existing event context once.
The commit manifest lists each file on a separate, scannable line.
Success Criteria
A manifest path never appears inline with its status/role label.
Source and signature paths are not duplicated above and below the manifest.
Public-key paths remain inline after their label.
Classic and Forte render the same result.
