Fixed Quick Turn Console Rendering Bug
Output
✅ Quick Turn Console Bug Fixed
The Bug
When using Quick Turn during a normal turn, the kontask card wouldn't render even though the backend completed successfully. Users had to refresh to see results.
Root Cause
The currentResponseGroup DOM element could become detached during async Quick Turn operations. When appendChild was called on a detached node, content was appended but never visible.
The Fix
Added defensive getValidResponseGroup() helper that:
- Validates
currentResponseGroupis still in DOM usingdocument.contains() - If detached, recovers by finding last
.response-group:last-of-type - Used by both
appendLine()andappendHtml()
Files Changed
konui/src/console-ui.ts- Added helper, updated append functionsVIBE.md- Removed bug from backlog

What's Next?
Konui has been restarted - the fix is live. Test by using Quick Turn during a normal turn.
