🎯 What: Simplified the handleIndex function by extracting its core responsibilities into reusable helper methods: getConsensusMembers, prepareBaseData, and prepareParticipants.

💡 Why: The original handleIndex was overly long and complex, handling everything from raw database access to UI formatting. This refactoring improves readability and reduces significant code duplication across the HTTPServer handlers.

Verification:

  • Verified via manual code inspection to ensure logic parity.
  • Obtained a #Correct# rating from the code review tool.
  • Verified that all handlers now use a consistent pattern for data preparation.
  • (Note: Automated tests were skipped due to environment-specific Bazel/network limitations).

Result: Much cleaner and more maintainable HTTP handlers. handleIndex was reduced from ~80 lines to ~35 lines of focused logic. Boilerplate code for base data and participant formatting is now centralized.

# 🧹 Code Health Improvement Task

You are a code health agent. Your mission is to analyze and fix a code health issue that will improve the maintainability and readability of the codebase.

## Task Details

**File:** `internal/server/http_server.go:363`
**Issue:** Long function: handleIndex

**Language:** go

**Current Code:**
`go
func (s *HTTPServer) handleIndex(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	// ... UI rendering ...
}
`

**Rationale:** Extracting HTML rendering logic or using templates would significantly simplify this handler.

## Your Process

### 1. 🔍 UNDERSTAND - Analyze the Code Health Issue
* Review the surrounding code and understand its purpose
* Identify the specific code health problem (duplication, complexity, naming, dead code, deprecated usage, etc.)
* Consider how this issue affects maintainability and readability

### 2. ⚖️ ASSESS - Evaluate the Risk
Before making changes, assess the impact:
* What other code depends on or references this code?
* Are there similar patterns elsewhere that should be fixed consistently?
* What is the risk of inadvertently breaking functionality?

### 3. 📋 PLAN - Design the Improvement
Based on your assessment, plan your approach:
* What is the ideal state of this code?
* Are there existing patterns in the codebase to follow?
* Will this change affect other parts of the codebase?

### 4. 🔧 IMPLEMENT - Refactor with Care
* Write clean, readable code that addresses the issue
* Follow existing codebase patterns and conventions
* Preserve all existing functionality
* Ensure the fix doesn't introduce new issues
* Update or write additional tests if the refactoring warrants coverage
* Add or update documentation if needed

### 5. ✅ VERIFY - Validate the Improvement
- Run format and lint checks
- Run the full test suite
- Verify the code health issue is resolved
- Ensure no functionality is broken

### 6. 📝 DOCUMENT - Explain the Improvement
Create a PR with:
- Title: "🧹 [code health improvement description]"
- Description with:
  * 🎯 **What:** The code health issue addressed
  * 💡 **Why:** How this improves maintainability
  * ✅ **Verification:** How you confirmed the change is safe
  * ✨ **Result:** The improvement achieved

Remember: Code health improvements should make the codebase better without changing behavior. When in doubt, preserve functionality over cleanliness.
