Matt Vollmer 08577006c6 fix(site): improve Workspace Autostop Fallback UX on agents settings page (#23465)
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a482ef45-402a-4d86-af59-b1526b2ce3e2

## Summary

Redesigns the **Default Autostop** section on the `/agents` settings
page to clarify that it is a fallback for chat-linked workspaces whose
templates do not define their own autostop policy. Template-level
settings always take priority — this is a backstop, not an override.

## Changes

### UX
- Renamed to **Workspace Autostop Fallback** with clearer description
- Replaced always-visible duration field (confusing `0` in an hours box)
with a **toggle-to-enable** pattern matching the Virtual Desktop section
- Toggle ON auto-saves with a 1-hour default; toggle OFF auto-saves with
0
- Save button is always visible when the toggle is on but disabled until
the user changes the duration value
- Per-section disabled flags — toggling autostop no longer freezes the
Virtual Desktop switch or prompt textareas during the save round-trip

### Reliability
- `onError` rollback on toggle auto-saves so the UI snaps back to server
truth on failure
- Stateful mocks in Storybook stories to prevent race conditions from
instant mock resolution

### Accessibility
- Added `aria-label="Autostop duration"` to the DurationField input
- Updated `DurationField` component to merge external `inputProps` with
internal ones (preserves `step: 1`)

### Stories
- Updated all existing autostop stories for the new toggle-based flow
- Added `DefaultAutostopToggleOff` — tests disabling from an enabled
state
- Added `DefaultAutostopSaveDisabled` — verifies Save button is visible
but disabled when no duration change

Coder enables organizations to set up development environments in their public or private cloud infrastructure. Cloud development environments are defined with Terraform, connected through a secure high-speed Wireguard® tunnel, and automatically shut down when not used to save on costs. Coder gives engineering teams the flexibility to use the cloud for workloads most beneficial to them.

  • Define cloud development environments in Terraform
    • EC2 VMs, Kubernetes Pods, Docker Containers, etc.
  • Automatically shutdown idle resources to save on costs
  • Onboard developers in seconds instead of days

Quickstart

The most convenient way to try Coder is to install it on your local machine and experiment with provisioning cloud development environments using Docker (works on Linux, macOS, and Windows).

# First, install Coder
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh

# Start the Coder server (caches data in ~/.cache/coder)
coder server

# Navigate to http://localhost:3000 to create your initial user,
# create a Docker template and provision a workspace

Install

The easiest way to install Coder is to use our install script for Linux and macOS. For Windows, use the latest ..._installer.exe file from GitHub Releases.

curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh

You can run the install script with --dry-run to see the commands that will be used to install without executing them. Run the install script with --help for additional flags.

See install for additional methods.

Once installed, you can start a production deployment with a single command:

# Automatically sets up an external access URL on *.try.coder.app
coder server

# Requires a PostgreSQL instance (version 13 or higher) and external access URL
coder server --postgres-url <url> --access-url <url>

Use coder --help to get a list of flags and environment variables. Use our install guides for a complete walkthrough.
