Port of pingdotgg/t3code#6165. The tooltip change also covers pingdotgg/t3code#6241 ("render tooltips above dropdowns").

Problem

Menu, popover, select, combobox and autocomplete positioners all used z-50, the same as the toast viewport and anchored toast positioner. Which one drew on top depended on portal DOM order, so a toast mounted after a popup opened (for example an anchored toast) could cover the menu and take its clicks.

Change

  • menu, popover, select, combobox, autocomplete positioners: z-50 → z-[130] (same value as upstream #6165).
  • tooltip positioner: z-50 → z-[140] (same as upstream #6241). Without this, tooltips inside a menu or popover would render behind it.
  • Toasts stay at z-50, below popups.
  • f5-only overlays that must outrank a popup left open now sit on a z-[135] layer, between popups and tooltips:
    • Ctrl+Tab thread switcher (ThreadCyclePicker). It opens from a window key handler without dismissing popups, so an open menu would otherwise draw over it and take its clicks.
    • Blocking upgrade dialog and its fallback (UpgradeConnectionDialog, WebSocketConnectionSurface). Popups portal outside the inert app tree, so an open menu would otherwise stay visible and clickable while the app is blocked. DialogPopup gains a layerClassName prop that sets the backdrop and viewport z-index. The dialog's old z-[90] had no effect, because it sat inside the viewport's z-50 stacking context.
  • The non-blocking "reconnecting" status card (z-[90], bottom-right) and the pointer-events-none quit hint (z-[100]) stay below popups on purpose: a menu drawing over them is harmless.

Tests

  • apps/web/src/components/popupLayering.browser.tsx:
    • All five popup types plus a tooltip, next to a stacked toast and an anchored toast. Popups stack above both toast layers, and tooltips stack above popups.
    • elementFromPoint hit tests over an open menu item: the Ctrl+Tab switcher and the upgrade dialog win. Both tests fail when those overlays are set back to z-50.
  • bun fmt, bun lint (0 errors), bun typecheck, bun run upstream-ports:check, and bun run test:full (workspace suite and real-Git matrix) all pass.

Upstream-Topic: pr-6165

Menu, popover, select, combobox and autocomplete positioners shared z-50
with the toast viewport, so stacking fell back to portal DOM order and a
toast (or an anchored toast) mounted after a popup could cover it and
swallow its clicks. Raise those positioners to z-[130], and tooltips to
z-[140] so tooltips opened inside a popup stay on top.

Port of pingdotgg/t3code#6165.

Walkthrough

Popup components now use higher stacking levels. Selected overlays set explicit layer classes, and browser tests check the relative stacking order of popups, toasts, tooltips, and overlays.

Changes: Popup stacking order

Layer / File(s) Summary
Popup stacking primitives
apps/web/src/components/ui/dialog.tsx, apps/web/src/components/ui/autocomplete.tsx, apps/web/src/components/ui/combobox.tsx, apps/web/src/components/ui/menu.tsx, apps/web/src/components/ui/popover.tsx, apps/web/src/components/ui/select.tsx, apps/web/src/components/ui/tooltip.tsx
DialogPopup accepts a layerClassName prop and applies it to the backdrop and viewport. Popup positioners now use stacking levels of 130 or 140, depending on the component.
Overlay layers and browser checks
apps/web/src/components/ThreadCyclePicker.tsx, apps/web/src/components/UpgradeConnectionDialog.tsx, apps/web/src/components/WebSocketConnectionSurface.tsx, apps/web/src/components/popupLayering.browser.tsx
The thread-cycle backdrop and upgrade surfaces use stacking level 135. Browser tests check popup and toast ordering, tooltip placement, and whether the switcher backdrop and upgrade dialog appear above an open menu.

Ctrl+Tab can cover the upgrade fallback while the dialog is loading or unavailable. Fix or accept this limited layering regression.

Explanation

The title "Render dropdowns and popovers above toasts" matches the main change. The PR raises menu, popover, select, combobox, and autocomplete positioners from z-50 to z-[130] so they render above toasts. The title omits the tooltip, Ctrl+Tab switcher, and upgrade dialog layering changes, which are secondary parts of the same stacking work.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. 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 7 functions across 11 files.

Resolution

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

Popups now sit at z-[130], above f5-only overlays that previously relied
on equal z-50 and DOM order to cover a popup left open. The Ctrl+Tab
switcher and the blocking upgrade dialog and its fallback move to a
z-[135] layer, between popups and tooltips. Otherwise an open menu
covered them and took their clicks, and could still run actions while
the app tree was inert. DialogPopup gains a layerClassName prop for its
backdrop and viewport.

The layering browser test moves to components/. It now covers anchored
toasts and hit-tests the switcher and upgrade dialog over an open menu.

Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Keep the upgrade fallback above the Ctrl+Tab picker.

UpgradeFallback and ThreadCyclePicker now both use z-[135]. The picker portals to document.body and mounts after the fallback, so it paints above the fallback. Before this PR, the fallback used z-[90] and the picker backdrop used z-50, so the fallback stayed on top.

The fallback renders only while the lazy upgrade dialog import is pending or has failed, or when the surface error boundary catches a render error. Active uploads or unavailable automatic reload do not select the fallback. Ctrl+Tab can still open the picker over the fallback when the WebSocket phase allows it.
