What is the Neural Link?

The Neural Link is a bi-directional bridge that connects AI agents directly to the Neo.mjs runtime. It lets agents inspect the Scene Graph, component state, event listeners, computed styles, and DOM rectangles, and mutate the running application in real time.

Why is Neo.mjs called an Application Engine instead of a framework?

Neo.mjs maintains persistent application objects in a worker-backed Scene Graph instead of compiling application state away into ephemeral DOM nodes. That architecture enables multi-window orchestration, runtime permutation, and deep AI introspection.

What is Context Engineering?

Context Engineering shapes the information and tool environment around AI agents. Neo.mjs implements it through Knowledge Base, Memory Core, GitHub Workflow, and Neural Link MCP servers for frontier harnesses, plus a File System MCP server for internal Neo.ai.Agent local loops.

What is the Neo.mjs Agent OS?

The Neo.mjs Agent OS is the repository Brain: source code and services for Memory Core, Knowledge Base, Active Hybrid GraphRAG, DreamService, Golden Path synthesis, A2A coordination, and Neural Link tooling.

Refactor afterSetId in Split Button and Grid Body

Closed v11.19.1/archive-v11-19-1-chunk-1 airefactoringcore

Context: src/button/Split.mjs and src/grid/Body.mjs implement manual VDOM ID assignment for their wrapper nodes in afterSetId. This logic is now redundant because Neo.mixin.VdomLifecycle.ensureStableIds (invoked by Component.Base) automatically detects wrapper nodes (via getVdomRoot()) and assigns the standard __wrapper ID suffix.

Goals:

Remove afterSetId from src/button/Split.mjs.
Remove afterSetId from src/grid/Body.mjs.
Verify that ensureStableIds correctly handles the ID assignment.

Verification:

Split button and Grid body should still render with the correct __wrapper ID on their root element.

Input from Gemini 3 Pro:

✦ I have completed the refactoring for src/button/Split.mjs and src/grid/Body.mjs.

Changes:

Removed the manual afterSetId methods from both classes.

Verified that Neo.mixin.VdomLifecycle.ensureStableIds correctly assigns the __wrapper ID suffix to the root node and the raw ID to the component's internal root (getVdomRoot()).

Verification:

Added a new unit test: test/playwright/unit/component/WrapperIdCheck.spec.mjs.

Confirmed that Neo.create(SplitButton) and Neo.create(GridBody) produce the correct VDOM ID structure.
