Create a note

Create note lets a user save a titled note from the browser or CLI, cancel an unfinished draft, and confirm the saved note from a second user-facing view.

Preconditions:

• Notes is healthy at http://127.0.0.1:4173.

• No note is titled Release checklist.

• control-notes doctor reports the expected URL and disposable data directory.

• Open editor. Choose New note. Run control-notes browser click --role button --name "New note". A form named Note editor appears with focus in the Title textbox.

• Enter content. Type the title and body. Run control-notes browser fill --role textbox --name "Title" --value "Release checklist" and control-notes browser fill --role textbox --name "Body" --value "Tag and publish". The Save note button becomes enabled.

• Save note. Choose Save note. Run control-notes browser click --role button --name "Save note". A status named Note saved appears and the heading reads Release checklist.

• Confirm persistence. Return to the note list and reopen the note. Run control-notes browser click --role link --name "All notes" and control-notes browser click --role link --name "Release checklist". The editor shows both saved values.

• Cancel draft. Open a new note, enter Discard me, and choose Cancel. Run control-notes browser click --role button --name "New note", control-notes browser fill --role textbox --name "Title" --value "Discard me", and control-notes browser click --role button --name "Cancel". The note list returns and has no Discard me link.

• CLI entry. Create a second note. Run control-notes cli -- notes create --title "CLI note" --body "Created from terminal" --format json. Exit code 0 and stdout contain the new note ID and title.

• Proof. Reopen both saved notes from All notes. Run control-notes browser snapshot --aria --path artifacts/create-note/list.aria.txt and control-notes browser screenshot --path artifacts/create-note/list.png. The artifacts show Release checklist and CLI note.

GotchasCopy Anchor Link

• Pressing n while a textbox has focus types the character instead of opening a new editor.
• Titles are trimmed on save. Assert the rendered title, not the draft input value.
• A save status alone is insufficient proof. Reopen the note from the list.
• Remove Release checklist and CLI note during fixture cleanup, but retain their proof artifacts.
