+# Specification: Increase Maximum Zoom for Left-to-Right Graph View
+
+## Intent Description
+
+Users working with workflow graphs in the left-to-right (LR) orientation currently experience a maximum zoom limit of 200%, which is insufficient for detailed inspection of complex graphs. The top-down (TB) orientation uses the same 200% limit, but the different aspect ratio and layout of TB graphs makes this limit feel more generous in practice. LR graphs, being horizontally oriented, often require higher magnification to read node labels and inspect edges comfortably.
+
+This change increases the maximum zoom ceiling for the LR graph direction to provide parity in perceived usability between the two orientations. The goal is to allow users to zoom in further when viewing LR graphs while maintaining the existing zoom behavior for TB graphs. Additionally, to improve the user experience when switching between orientations, zoom levels are now persisted separately for each direction — when you switch from TB to LR and back, your previous zoom level for each mode is restored.
+
+## Architecture Specification
+
+### Affected Components
+
+**`apps/fabro-web/app/lib/graph-viewport.ts`**
+- Replace the single `GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM` constant (currently 200) with direction-aware zoom limits
+- Export two constants: `GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM_TB = 200` and `GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM_LR = 400` (2x increase from 200%)
+- Update `clampZoom()` to accept an optional direction parameter and apply the appropriate max limit
+- Maintain backward compatibility: when direction is not specified, use the TB limit as the default
+
+**`apps/fabro-web/app/routes/run-overview.tsx`**
+- Thread the active direction (`activeDirection: "LR" | "TB"`) to `clampZoom()` calls
+- Relevant call sites: `fitToWindow()` callback and zoom interactions via `zoomAtPoint()`
+- Pass direction to `zoomAtPoint()` so it can forward it to `clampZoom()`
+- Hold a separate remembered view per direction via `useRememberedGraphView`, keyed `<runId>-TB` and `<runId>-LR`
+- Restore the appropriate zoom level when switching between TB and LR orientations
+
+**`apps/fabro-web/app/components/graph-toolbar.tsx`**
+- Update zoom button disabled state to use direction-aware max zoom
+- Import both `GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM_TB` and `GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM_LR`
+- Receive `direction` prop and check against the appropriate constant
+
+**`apps/fabro-web/app/lib/graph-viewport.test.ts`**
+- Update test assertions that reference `GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM` to test both TB and LR limits
+- Add test coverage for direction-aware clamping behavior
+
+### Type Signature Changes
+
+```typescript
+// Before
+export const clampZoom = (zoom: number): number
+
+// After
+export const clampZoom = (zoom: number, direction?: "LR" | "TB"): number
+```
+
+```typescript
+// Before
+export function zoomAtPoint(
+  view: GraphView,
+  factor: number,
+  cursor?: { x: number; y: number },
+): GraphView
+
+// After
+export function zoomAtPoint(
+  view: GraphView,
+  factor: number,
+  cursor?: { x: number; y: number },
+  direction?: "LR" | "TB",
+): GraphView
+```
+
+### Constraints
+
+- **Backward compatibility**: `clampZoom()` and `zoomAtPoint()` must remain callable without the direction parameter for existing call sites outside the run overview route
+- **Single source of truth**: Zoom limits must be defined as exported constants in `graph-viewport.ts`, not duplicated in component files
+- **No change to TB behavior**: The TB max zoom remains 200%
+- **Minimum zoom unchanged**: `GRAPH_MIN_ZOOM` remains 25% for both directions
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. **LR zoom ceiling increased**: When viewing a workflow graph in LR orientation, the user can zoom in to 400% (up from 200%) using toolbar buttons, scroll wheel, or trackpad pinch gestures
+2. **TB zoom ceiling unchanged**: When viewing a workflow graph in TB orientation, the maximum zoom remains 200%
+3. **Toolbar button state**: The zoom-in button is disabled when at the direction-specific maximum (LR or TB), and the zoom-out button is disabled at 25% for both directions
+4. **Fit-to-window respects limits**: The "Fit to window" button clamps the computed zoom to the direction-specific maximum when appropriate
+5. **Zoom persistence per direction**: When switching from TB to LR (or vice versa), the zoom level you previously used for that direction is restored — each direction remembers its own zoom level independently
+6. **Tests pass**: All existing `graph-viewport.test.ts` tests pass, and new tests verify direction-aware clamping behavior
+
+## Ambiguity Log
+
+| Decision | Classification | Resolved By | Rationale / Answer |
+|----------|----------------|-------------|-------------------|
+| What should the new LR maximum zoom be? | requires-stakeholder-input | human | Initially set to 300% (1.5x), but feedback requested increasing it to 400% (2x) for better usability with complex LR graphs. Updated to 400% based on user testing. |
+| Should the zoom limit change be retroactive to existing remembered zoom states? | inferable | Spec author | When a user switches from TB to LR, their remembered zoom state for that run is already stored. Each direction now maintains its own zoom level in a ref, so switching between TB and LR preserves the zoom you used for each mode. The `clampZoom` behavior ensures each direction's zoom stays within its max limit. |
+| Should the minimum zoom (25%) also be direction-aware? | inferable | Spec author | The user request specifically mentions "higher zoom in the overview graph in the left-to-right version" and compares max zoom between orientations. The minimum zoom was not mentioned as a problem. Changing the minimum would be scope creep. Keep `GRAPH_MIN_ZOOM` uniform at 25%. |
+| Should the constants be named `GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM_TB` / `GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM_LR` or use a different naming convention? | inferable | Spec author | The existing constant is `GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM`. The direction-aware version should maintain lexical proximity and clarity. Suffix-based naming (`_TB`, `_LR`) follows the existing `Direction` type values and makes import/usage clear in components. Alternative approaches (e.g., a `MAX_ZOOM_BY_DIRECTION` map) add indirection without benefit. |
+| Should `zoomAtPoint()` accept direction as a parameter or should callers pre-clamp? | inferable | Spec author | `zoomAtPoint()` internally calls `clampZoom()` at line 45. If direction-aware clamping is needed, threading direction through `zoomAtPoint()` avoids forcing every caller to manually clamp before calling. This centralizes the clamping logic and matches the existing function's responsibility. Pre-clamping at call sites would scatter the logic and risk inconsistency. |
+| What happens to the playground canvas zoom (mentioned in graph-viewport.ts comments)? | inferable | Spec author | The comment at line 5-7 of `graph-viewport.ts` notes the playground canvas has its own pan/zoom with discrete steps and could import this module for cursor-anchored zoom. The playground is not mentioned in the user request. The change should not affect the playground unless it explicitly imports and uses the new direction-aware `clampZoom()`. Since it currently uses discrete steps (not the percentage-based system), it remains unaffected. |

+## Cross-Artifact Consistency Gate
+
+- [ ] Intent is unambiguous — two developers would interpret it the same way.
+- [ ] Every behavior/goal in the intent maps to at least one acceptance criterion.
+- [ ] Architecture constrains implementation without over-engineering.
+- [ ] Same concepts named consistently across all three artifacts.
+- [ ] No artifact contradicts another.
+- [ ] Every gap/ambiguity finding is logged — inferable with rationale, or resolved by the human.

+# Plan: Increase Maximum Zoom for Left-to-Right Graph View
+
+**Status**: implemented
+**Spec**: docs/specs/graph-zoom-lr-increase.md
+
+## Goal
+
+Enable users to zoom in further when viewing workflow graphs in left-to-right (LR) orientation by increasing the maximum zoom ceiling from 200% to 400%, while maintaining the existing 200% maximum for top-down (TB) orientation. Additionally, zoom levels are now persisted separately for each direction to improve the user experience when switching between TB and LR modes.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. **LR zoom ceiling increased**: When viewing a workflow graph in LR orientation, the user can zoom in to 400% (up from 200%) using toolbar buttons, scroll wheel, or trackpad pinch gestures
+2. **TB zoom ceiling unchanged**: When viewing a workflow graph in TB orientation, the maximum zoom remains 200%
+3. **Toolbar button state**: The zoom-in button is disabled when at the direction-specific maximum (LR or TB), and the zoom-out button is disabled at 25% for both directions
+4. **Fit-to-window respects limits**: The "Fit to window" button clamps the computed zoom to the direction-specific maximum when appropriate
+5. **Zoom persistence per direction**: When switching from TB to LR (or vice versa), the zoom level you previously used for that direction is restored — each direction remembers its own zoom level independently
+6. **Tests pass**: All existing `graph-viewport.test.ts` tests pass, and new tests verify direction-aware clamping behavior
+
+## Slices
+
+### Slice 1: Direction-aware zoom constants and clampZoom function
+
+**Depends-on**: none
+**Files**: `apps/fabro-web/app/lib/graph-viewport.ts`, `apps/fabro-web/app/lib/graph-viewport.test.ts`
+
+Replace the single `GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM` constant with direction-aware constants and update `clampZoom()` to accept an optional direction parameter.
+
+#### Scenarios
+
+**Scenario: TB zoom clamping**
+- Given the zoom direction is TB
+- When clamping zoom at 150%
+- Then the zoom remains 150%
+- When clamping zoom at 250%
+- Then the zoom is clamped to 200%
+
+**Scenario: LR zoom clamping**
+- Given the zoom direction is LR
+- When clamping zoom at 250%
+- Then the zoom remains 250%
+- When clamping zoom at 450%
+- Then the zoom is clamped to 400%
+
+**Scenario: Backward compatibility with no direction**
+- When clamping zoom at 150% without specifying direction
+- Then the zoom remains 150%
+- When clamping zoom at 250% without specifying direction
+- Then the zoom is clamped to 200% (TB default)
+
+**Scenario: Minimum zoom unchanged**
+- Given the zoom direction is TB
+- When clamping zoom at 10%
+- Then the zoom is clamped to 25%
+- Given the zoom direction is LR
+- When clamping zoom at 10%
+- Then the zoom is clamped to 25%
+
+#### Steps

+### Slice 2: Direction-aware zoomAtPoint function
+
+**Depends-on**: Slice 1
+**Files**: `apps/fabro-web/app/lib/graph-viewport.ts`, `apps/fabro-web/app/lib/graph-viewport.test.ts`
+
+Thread the direction parameter through `zoomAtPoint()` so it can forward it to the now direction-aware `clampZoom()`.
+
+#### Scenarios
+
+**Scenario: zoomAtPoint with TB direction clamps to 200%**
+- Given a view at 180% zoom
+- And the direction is TB
+- When zooming by factor 1.5 at the center
+- Then the zoom is clamped to 200%
+- And the pan adjusts based on the clamped ratio (k = 200/180)
+
+**Scenario: zoomAtPoint with LR direction clamps to 400%**
+- Given a view at 250% zoom
+- And the direction is LR
+- When zooming by factor 1.5 at the center
+- Then the zoom is clamped to 400%
+- And the pan adjusts based on the clamped ratio (k = 400/250)
+
+**Scenario: zoomAtPoint without direction defaults to TB**
+- Given a view at 180% zoom
+- When zooming by factor 1.5 at the center without specifying direction
+- Then the zoom is clamped to 200%
+
+**Scenario: Cursor-anchored zoom respects direction-aware clamping**
+- Given a view at 280% zoom in LR direction
+- And a cursor at offset (50, 40)
+- When zooming by factor 1.2
+- Then the zoom is clamped to 400%
+- And the content point under the cursor remains anchored after clamping
+
+#### Steps
+
+1. IMPLEMENT: Update `zoomAtPoint()` signature to accept optional `direction?: "LR" | "TB"` parameter
+2. IMPLEMENT: Pass `direction` to the `clampZoom()` call inside `zoomAtPoint()`
+3. TEST: Update existing test "clamps zoom and applies the clamped ratio to pan" to verify TB behavior (max 200)
+4. TEST: Add test for LR clamping in `zoomAtPoint()` (max 400, verify pan adjustment with k = 400/initial)
+5. TEST: Add test for `zoomAtPoint()` without direction parameter (backward compat, max 200)
+6. TEST: Add test for cursor-anchored zoom with LR direction near the 400% limit
+7. REFACTOR: Verify all `zoomAtPoint()` tests check both zoom and pan outcomes, not just zoom

+
+### Slice 3: Thread direction to run-overview route zoom interactions
+
+**Depends-on**: Slice 2
+**Files**: `apps/fabro-web/app/routes/run-overview.tsx`
+
+Update the run overview route to pass `activeDirection` to `zoomAtPoint()` and `clampZoom()` calls so wheel/pinch zoom and fit-to-window honor the direction-aware limits.
+
+#### Scenarios
+
+**Scenario: Wheel zoom in LR direction respects 400% max**
+- Given a workflow graph in LR orientation at 350% zoom
+- When the user performs Ctrl+scroll to zoom in
+- Then the zoom increases toward 400% and stops at 400%
+
+**Scenario: Wheel zoom in TB direction respects 200% max**
+- Given a workflow graph in TB orientation at 180% zoom
+- When the user performs Ctrl+scroll to zoom in
+- Then the zoom increases toward 200% and stops at 200%
+
+**Scenario: Fit-to-window in LR clamps to 400%**
+- Given a tiny workflow graph that would fit at 500% zoom
+- And the direction is LR
+- When the user clicks "Fit to window"
+- Then the zoom is set to 400% (clamped)
+
+**Scenario: Fit-to-window in TB clamps to 200%**
+- Given a tiny workflow graph that would fit at 500% zoom
+- And the direction is TB
+- When the user clicks "Fit to window"
+- Then the zoom is set to 200% (clamped)
+
+**Scenario: Switching from LR to TB restores TB zoom level**
+- Given a workflow graph in LR orientation at 350% zoom
+- And the user previously had TB at 180% zoom
+- When the user switches to TB orientation
+- Then the zoom is restored to 180%
+
+**Scenario: Switching from TB to LR restores LR zoom level**
+- Given a workflow graph in TB orientation at 150% zoom
+- And the user previously had LR at 280% zoom
+- When the user switches to LR orientation
+- Then the zoom is restored to 280%
+
+#### Steps
+
+1. IMPLEMENT: Update the `onWheel` callback's `zoomAtPoint()` call to pass `activeDirection`
+2. IMPLEMENT: Update the `fitToWindow` callback's `clampZoom()` call to pass `activeDirection`
+3. IMPLEMENT: Hold a separate remembered view per direction via `useRememberedGraphView`, keyed `<runId>-TB` and `<runId>-LR`
+4. IMPLEMENT: Select the active view from the two per-direction states, so switching direction needs no restore effect
+5. TEST: Manual verification: open a run, switch to LR, zoom to 380% via wheel, verify it clamps at 400%
+6. TEST: Manual verification: open a run, switch to TB, zoom to 180% via wheel, verify it clamps at 200%
+7. TEST: Manual verification: create a tiny graph, switch to LR, click fit-to-window, verify zoom clamps to 400% if computed fit exceeds it
+8. TEST: Manual verification: zoom to 350% in LR, switch to TB (zoom should restore to previous TB level), switch back to LR (zoom should restore to 350%)
+9. TEST: Manual verification: verify zoom persistence works correctly when switching between TB and LR multiple times
+10. REFACTOR: Review all `zoomAtPoint()` call sites in the file to ensure none were missed

+### Slice 4: Thread direction to graph toolbar zoom buttons
+
+**Depends-on**: Slice 1, Slice 2, Slice 3
+**Files**: `apps/fabro-web/app/components/graph-toolbar.tsx`, `apps/fabro-web/app/routes/run-overview.tsx`

+
+**Scenario: Zoom-in button in LR disables at 400%**
+- Given a workflow graph in LR orientation at 400% zoom
+- Then the zoom-in button is disabled
+
+**Scenario: Zoom-in button in TB disables at 200%**

+- Given a workflow graph in LR orientation at 25% zoom
+- Then the zoom-out button is disabled
+- Given a workflow graph in TB orientation at 25% zoom
+- Then the zoom-out button is disabled
+
+**Scenario: Toolbar zoom-in button in LR respects 400% limit**
+- Given a workflow graph in LR orientation at 380% zoom
+- When the user clicks the zoom-in button
+- Then the zoom increases but stops at 400%
+
+**Scenario: Toolbar zoom-in button in TB respects 200% limit**
+- Given a workflow graph in TB orientation at 180% zoom
+- When the user clicks the zoom-in button
+- Then the zoom increases but stops at 200%
+
+#### Steps
+
+1. IMPLEMENT: Import `GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM_TB` and `GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM_LR` in `graph-toolbar.tsx`, remove `GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM` import
+2. IMPLEMENT: Update `GraphToolbar` props to accept `direction: Direction`
+3. IMPLEMENT: Update zoom-in button's `disabled` condition to check `zoom >= (direction === "LR" ? GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM_LR : GRAPH_MAX_ZOOM_TB)` (LR max = 400, TB max = 200)
+4. IMPLEMENT: Update `run-overview.tsx` `<GraphToolbar>` call to pass `direction={activeDirection}` prop
+5. IMPLEMENT: Update `run-overview.tsx` `onZoomBy` callback to pass `activeDirection` to `zoomAtPoint()`: `onZoomBy={(factor) => setView((v) => zoomAtPoint(v, factor, undefined, activeDirection))}`
+6. TEST: Manual verification: open run in LR at 350%, verify zoom-in button is enabled

+## Parallelization
+
+### Wave 1
+- Slice 1: Direction-aware zoom constants and clampZoom function
+
+### Wave 2
+- Slice 2: Direction-aware zoomAtPoint function
+
+### Wave 3
+- Slice 3: Thread direction to run-overview route zoom interactions
+
+### Wave 4
+- Slice 4: Thread direction to graph toolbar zoom buttons
+
+**No collisions**: Each slice touches distinct portions of the files. Slice 1 and 2 modify `graph-viewport.ts` and its tests but are sequential (Slice 2 depends on Slice 1). Slice 3 and 4 both modify `run-overview.tsx` but are sequential (Slice 4 depends on Slice 3). No same-wave slices overlap files.
+
+## Skipped (low value)
+
+None. All acceptance criteria map to testable scenarios with observable outcomes. The spec's Ambiguity Log entries are all resolved and do not contain low-value items to skip.
+
+## Risks & Open Questions
+
+### Risks
+
+1. **Performance at 400% zoom**: Rendering performance at 400% zoom for large graphs has not been validated. The spec initially assumed 1.5x increase (300%) was conservative, but was increased to 2x (400%) based on user feedback. Performance should be monitored during manual testing. If performance degrades, the LR max may need adjustment.
+
+2. **Zoom persistence behavior**: The implementation now maintains separate zoom levels for TB and LR directions, each remembered per run under its own key. When switching between directions, the zoom level you previously used for that direction is restored. This improves the user experience by preserving the zoom state per direction, even when switching back and forth multiple times.
+
+3. **Test coverage gap**: The plan includes manual verification steps because there are no existing integration or E2E tests for the graph toolbar and zoom interactions. Adding automated tests for these would improve confidence but is out of scope for this feature (no existing test infrastructure for React component interactions in this codebase).
+
+### Open Questions
+
+None. All ambiguities were resolved in the spec's Ambiguity Log. The multiplier was initially set to 1.5x (300% max for LR) but was increased to 2x (400%) based on user feedback for better usability. Zoom persistence was added to maintain separate zoom levels for each direction. All implementation details are constrained by the architecture specification.
+
