Summary

Adds a two-step inline confirmation pattern for the Delete Token and
Clear Cache buttons in the Settings page to prevent accidental data loss.

Closes #257

Problem

Both buttons previously executed destructive actions on a single click —
no warning, no confirmation. An accidental tap/click would:

  • Delete the PAT, requiring the user to regenerate and re-paste the token
  • Wipe all cached data, forcing fresh API calls for everything

Solution

Implemented a lightweight two-step confirmation directly on the button itself:

Button 1st Click 2nd Click Result
Delete Confirm Delete? + red outline confirms Deleted → Delete
Clear All Confirm Clear? + red outline confirms Cleared → Clear All
  • ⏱️ Auto-reverts in 3 seconds if user doesn't confirm
  • 🔴 Red outline on pending state as visual warning
  • ✅ Success feedback shown for 2s after action completes
  • No modal, no extra UI — clean and minimal

Files Changed

  • src/pages/SettingsPage.jsx

Demo

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • User Experience
    • Deleting a token or clearing the cache requires a second click within three seconds to confirm. The confirmation resets if the second click is not made in time.
    • Buttons indicate when they are awaiting confirmation, and completed actions show a temporary status message.
    • Confirmed token deletion clears the saved token and any related draft or error message.
    • Cache clearing shows success only when both cache and analysis clearing succeed; otherwise, it shows a failure message.

- Delete token: first click shows Confirm Delete?, second click deletes
- Clear cache: first click shows Confirm Clear?, second click clears
- Both show success feedback (Deleted/Cleared) for 2s after action
- Pending state shows red outline as visual warning
- Auto-reverts to original state after 3s if user does not confirm

Walkthrough

SettingsPage now requires a second click within three seconds to delete a token or clear the cache. Confirmed actions show temporary status messages. Pending and status timers are canceled when the page unmounts.

Changes

Settings confirmation flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Confirmation state, actions, and button feedback
src/pages/SettingsPage.jsx
The page tracks pending and completed states for token deletion and cache clearing. A second click within three seconds runs the action; otherwise, the pending confirmation resets. Deletion clears the saved token, draft, and token error. Cache clearing runs cacheClear() and clearAnalysis() together, with success shown only when both succeed. The buttons show confirmation and completion states.

Explanation

Issue #257 requires two-step confirmation for Delete and Clear All. src/pages/SettingsPage.jsx implements the first-click pending state, second-click action, three-second reset, temporary success or failure feedback, and timer cleanup. The pending buttons use a red outline. Issue #257 also requires a pending-state animation in src/styles/global.css. The reviewed stylesheet has no such animation, and the pending buttons do not apply an animation.

A rabbit taps the button once,
Then waits three seconds by the bun.
A second tap clears cache or key,
And status notes what came to be.
The timers stop when settings close,
Then off the rabbit quietly goes.

Clear?,” and “Cleared” labels in the SettingsPage button flows to the existing
localization resource files, and reference their resource keys instead of
hardcoding the strings. Reuse the project’s established translation lookup and
key conventions.
- Around line 76-77: Update the handler around cacheClear to check its returned
result: call setCleared(true) only when the cache operation succeeds, and show
failure feedback when it returns false.
- Line 65: In SettingsPage, store the timer IDs for the setDeleted and
setCleared completion timers in refs, then clear both timers in the component’s
unmount cleanup.

@amankv1234 This confirmation doesn't provide a good UX, as it looks like a glitch after clicking. Please use the default Alert API for confirmation. If the user selects "Yes," proceed with the task; otherwise, cancel it.

Review comments at @src/pages/SettingsPage.jsx:
- Line 292: Update the clear button label in the SettingsPage component so
clearPending takes priority over cleared and clearError, while clearing remains
the highest-priority state. This ensures each new cache-clear attempt visibly
enters the confirmation state.
- Around line 243-250: Reset the `deleted` state in the token draft’s `onChange`
handler so editing the draft clears the temporary “Deleted” label; preserve the
existing delete confirmation flow for the newly saved token.
