Submitting the new-lead form with a blank Product Line produced: 400 The workflow rejected this submission. validation failed for activity zk-act-init-agent: product_line_4(required) That asks an operator to know what a field_s_id is, that `_4` is a disambiguating suffix and not part of a name, that "required" is a rule rather than a value, and that 400 means them and not us. All four are ours to know. Two changes, and the first means the second is rarely reached. The form now checks required fields before it sends anything. It marks each empty one — on the label, because somebody scanning a thirteen-field form is looking for the NAME they missed, not for a red box — scrolls the first into view, and says "Product Line is required". No round trip, and nothing to decode. The marking clears as the field is filled, since a field still flagged after being corrected teaches people to ignore the flagging. If the workflow does reject a submission on fields — it validates more than this form can know about — describeValidation now renders the reply in the form's own labels. It parses every `key(reason)` pair, maps the reason to a sentence, and resolves the key through the schema, including the suffix rule the prefill seeding uses. A key the schema does not carry keeps its raw name: a wrong label is worse than an ugly one, because the operator goes looking for a field that is not there. The status code is dropped from that surface. "400" is the first thing read and the least useful thing shown; it stays on the errors an operator genuinely cannot fix by typing. |

Zurich Kotak — Lead Desk
Operator console for the Zurich Kotak "Lead to Policy" demo. Leads arrive through three channels — direct, bancassurance and agency — and run one state machine to policy issuance. The agents do the work; a person appears at one queue.
Workflow config is seeded from sm2/custom-apps/zurich-kotak/ (org 84,
app 536, workflow zk_wf_lead). Design doc:
sm2/app-designs/zurich-kotak/design.html. Workflow spec PDF:
sm2/custom-apps/zurich-kotak/zurich-kotak-workflow.pdf.
Run it
npm install
npm run dev # http://localhost:5175
npm run build # → dist/
.env carries the API host for local dev only:
VITE_ZINO_API_URL=https://dev.getzino.in

How it talks to the platform
Everything goes through src/api/client.js:
POST /usr/login— auth.org_idmust be a string; a number returnscannot unmarshal number into Go struct field LoginRequest.org_id.POST /app/536/view/recordview— every queue is one record view (zk-rv-leads) filtered server-side oncurrent_state_name.POST /app/536/view/form-screensthenPOST /app/536/activity— forms are read from the live activity schema and submitted straight back.
Forms are not defined in this repo
Whatever /view/form-screens returns is what renders — labels, types, select
options, which fields are mandatory. Add a field to an activity in Studio,
redeploy, and it appears here with no frontend change. That is deliberate: the
workflow is the source of truth, and a hardcoded form would quietly diverge
from it.
Permissions are never enforced here
The console does not hide a button to stop someone using it. Every permission
decision is the workflow's, made server-side on each submission — the platform
refuses and this app reports what it said. Two refusals worth knowing:
/activity answers 403, /start answers 400, and both carry
permission denied.
The runtime-config contract
VITE_ZINO_API_URL is read at runtime from a config.js the server writes
when it places the build — never compiled in. One artifact is promoted between
environments unchanged, so a build-time URL would point every environment at
whichever backend happened to build it. requireConfigValue throws if it is
missing, so a production build with no config.js fails loudly rather than
calling the wrong backend.
vite.config.js uses base: './' and the router takes its basename from the
<base href> the server writes, so one build serves any mount path. Do not
reintroduce a build-time base.
This is also why the fonts and logo live under src/assets/ and not
public/. Vite rewrites bundled asset URLs to be relative; a public/ file
referenced as /fonts/… stays absolute and 404s under the /zurich-kotak/
mount path. The favicon is the one exception — it stays in public/brand/ and
is referenced relatively from index.html.
Deployment
Registered with frontgen by sm2/custom-apps/zurich-kotak/05_frontgen_project.sql
(slug zurich-kotak, repo_name zurich_kotak, org 84). A push to main builds
and serves at https://preview-dev.getzino.in/zurich-kotak/.
The webhook only fires on a new push — a push made before the frontgen project row existed matched no project and did nothing.
