A saved query cannot be edited, unpinned or deleted from the UI + +**Observed (user, 2026-08-13):** hand-testing item 23. The user saved a query, +then asked how to unpin it, and there is no answer that does not involve either +a text editor or retyping the whole query. + +**Cause:** item 23 specified saving and nothing else, and that is exactly what +shipped. `SaveQueryDialog` opens on the contents of the query BAR, not on a +stored entry, so the only route to changing one field of an existing query is to +reconstruct the whole query, name it identically, and let +`MainWindow::saveCurrentQuery()` replace it by name. There is no delete at any +price: nothing in the UI removes an entry from `queries.json`. + +This is a defect rather than a missing enhancement. An action that creates +something the UI cannot then edit or remove is incomplete, and the user hit it +within minutes of the first hand test. + +**Approach.** A context menu on a saved-query button and on each **More +queries** entry, offering Edit, Unpin (or Pin) and Delete. + +- **Edit** opens `SaveQueryDialog` prefilled from the STORED entry rather than + from the query bar. The dialog already carries every field it needs; what it + lacks is a constructor that takes a `SavedQuery`. +- **Unpin** is a one-field write and does not need the dialog at all. +- **Delete** removes the entry and rewrites the file. + +**Constraints.** + +- `saveCurrentQuery()` already merges an existing entry's `unknown` fields over + the dialog's fresh value, and every one of these paths must do the same or a + field written by a later build is dropped by an edit here. +- Renaming through Edit is a rename, not a second entry: match on the name the + dialog was OPENED with, not the one it returns, or renaming silently creates a + duplicate and leaves the original behind. +- Delete is destructive and the file is user config, so it is one of the few + places in this application that wants a confirmation. The no-confirmation rule + in CLAUDE.md is about tag mutations, which are undoable through the undo + stack; this is not on that stack and cannot be undone. +- A test must exercise every route the way item 75's did not: the dialog's + Cancel goes through `done(int)` and never sends a `QCloseEvent`. + +**Size: S**, and it should land before the saved-query work is called done. + ## Deferred, unsized, or split out Items noted while triaging but not part of the original list.
