Fixes #8111

Summary

When an annotation field is cleared in the queue form, buildSubmitOutputs omits it from the submitted outputs record. However, applyAnnotationOutputEntries was spreading the existing testcase evaluator column before entry.outputs, which caused previously saved fields to be retained on sync instead of dropped.

This replaces the evaluator column value with the new annotation outputs directly (data[entry.columnKey] = { ...entry.outputs }) so cleared fields do not persist into the testset row. Additionally, when all fields for an evaluator are cleared (outputs: {}), it is treated as a replacement if the evaluator column exists on the testcase, while preserving the skip for rows that never had evaluator data.

Testing

Verified locally

• pnpm --dir web/packages/agenta-annotation run test:unit (96 unit tests passing)
• pnpm --dir web/packages/agenta-annotation run types:check (zero TypeScript errors)

Added or updated tests

• Added unit tests in web/packages/agenta-annotation/tests/unit/testset-sync.test.ts verifying that:
  • Partially cleared evaluator fields are dropped from both buildTestcaseExportRows and buildTestsetSyncPreview.
  • Fully cleared evaluators (outputs: {}) replace the existing column with an empty record ({}) when the testcase previously held evaluator data.
  • Rows with empty outputs are skipped when no evaluator data exists on the testcase.

QA follow-up

N/A

Demo

This changes the synchronization state transform for testset outputs, not the visual UI layout. Below is the local test run verification confirming all 96 unit tests in @agenta/annotation and tsc --noEmit pass with the cleared field regression suite:

Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Testcase exports and previews now replace existing evaluator-column values with selected annotation outputs, preventing outdated fields from appearing while preserving unrelated testcase data.
  • When annotation outputs are empty, existing evaluator data is retained instead of being omitted.

Annotation sync now replaces evaluator-column data with annotation outputs. Export and preview logic retains empty outputs when the testcase already has evaluator data. Tests cover replacement, clearing, and skipping rows without existing evaluator data.

• Agenta-AI/agenta#8102: Both changes address annotation outputs that omit cleared fields. This PR replaces the evaluator column so omitted fields do not remain stale.

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to f640e

Clearing the last annotation field and syncing a second time may still leave the stale field in the test set. This is a narrow edge case, but it is the exact scenario the PR targets, so it should be fixed before merge.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #8111 requires a cleared annotation field to be removed from the evaluator column after sync. In testsetSync.ts, empty annotation outputs become an entry when the existing evaluator column has values, and applyAnnotationOutputEntries replaces that column with {...entry.outputs}. The added unit tests cover stale-field removal in buildTestcaseExportRows and buildTestsetSyncPreview.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The reviewed changes modify the annotation-to-testset synchronization transform and add focused regression tests for cleared evaluator fields. These changes directly support issue #8111. No unrelated product behavior is identified in the supplied evidence.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 60.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 4 functions across 2 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Handle an annotation with no remaining outputs.

When a queue-scoped annotation has empty data.outputs and the testcase has an existing evaluator column, sync skips the annotation. The old column remains, or the row is skipped if no other evaluator has outputs.

Treat explicit empty outputs as a replacement when the evaluator column exists. Add tests for clearing the last field, while preserving the skip for rows with no evaluator data.
