## Representations Refactor — Behaviour-Preserving Structural Improvements This PR delivers a full refactor of the representations flow, improving structure, readability, and maintainability while preserving all existing behaviour. The work was completed using a controlled, slice-based approach with strict guardrails and regression validation at each step. No changes have been made to user journeys, payloads, routing, or EN/CY behaviour. The result is a cleaner, more maintainable codebase with reduced coupling and clearer separation of concerns, ready for future enhancements without increased risk. --- ## What Was Done The refactor was delivered incrementally across the following slices: - **R1** — Representation entry logic extraction - **R2** — Page loader separation (SSR/data orchestration) - **R3** — Journey step resolution extraction - **R4** — Flow shell decomposition - **R5** — Representation elements normalisation - **R6** — Data/service layer cleanup - **R7** — Summary rendering proof slice - **R8** — Submission/finalisation boundary isolation - **R9** — Summary rollout (Batch 1) Each slice: - was isolated to a single concern - followed strict guardrails - was validated before merge Full detail is available in: `context/representations-refactor-tracker.md` --- ## Key Improvements - Reduced coupling across the representations journey - Separated data loading, orchestration, and rendering concerns - Simplified complex conditional logic into testable helpers - Standardised summary rendering using shared primitives (`SummaryCard`, `SummaryRow`) - Isolated submission/finalisation sequencing into explicit boundaries - Improved overall readability and maintainability --- ## Behaviour Preservation This refactor does **not** change: - User journeys (APP / IP / Agent / LPA) - Route and query behaviour - Payload contracts and API interactions - Redux state shape and usage - Validation rules and messaging - EN/CY behaviour - File upload / PDF / email sequencing - Linked-case logic All changes are structural only. --- ## Validation ### Automated - `npm run lint` — passed (warnings only, no new errors) - `npm run test:reps` — passed (7/7) ### Manual Validated end-to-end across: - APP - IP - Agent - LPA Including: - representation creation - editing/resuming representations - submission flow - confirmation/completion behaviour - summary rendering across case types - EN/CY parity --- ## Risk Management The refactor targeted several high-risk areas: - Case summary entry logic - Representation submission/finalisation sequencing - Dual-mode entry (new vs existing representation) Risk was controlled through: - small, incremental slices - one branch per slice - regression validation per slice - strict behaviour-preservation guardrails - controlled rollout for summary rendering changes --- ## Reviewer Guidance Suggested areas to focus on: - End-to-end representation journey (create → submit → complete) - S...
