Every settled change on a git-mode board commits, debounced 2s past
drag/typing churn, staged whole-root with .gitignore respected.
GitCommitOperation reaches the vendored libgit2 directly (same 1.9.2
pin SwiftGitX resolves — importable, not duplicated) for
signature-capable commits; add-git's config materialization is gone,
identity resolves at commit time (repo-local config, else derived
default) per the 2026-07-31 ruling in 06. CommitAttribution
classifies per file off EchoLedger receipts: user identity on
app-mediated windows, Lanework External <[email protected]>
on foreign, the modified-by refinement (<slug>@agents.lanework
.invalid) when every foreign file agrees, heal-marked receipts split
into their own commit — window split foreign → heal → user.
Edit-session granularity: ~700ms saves stay uncommitted, staging
excludes open session folders (closure-resolved so mid-session moves
stage around the new location), session end nudges the debounce so
each session lands exactly one body commit. Flush-before-overwrite
gates on known-foreign windows and commits synchronously ahead of
the write; close/quit flush the pipeline via CloseFlushCoordinator's
committerFlush. index.lock backs off briefly then re-debounces
silently; clean tree no-ops; genuine failures ride the standing
history-suspension banner and retry next debounce. Abnormal repo
states (detached HEAD, merge/rebase/cherry-pick in progress) hold
the engine with a 15s re-check; unborn HEAD commits "Initial board
state" whole-tree; dirty tree at open catches up through the same
engine. Message seam (CommitMessageComposing) ships interim — the
semantic composer is the next card.
Discovery diffs HEAD against an in-memory index with rename
detection (git status alone never pairs a bare mv), and a failed
survey reads as "could not look", never "nothing changed".

The pro-m1 foundation card. SwiftGitX 0.4.0 (bundled libgit2, the
pathfinder's pin) joins the one target; new Kanban/Git/ holds
BoardGitMode (pure nearest-.git-wins detection, .git-as-file counts,
NSString ancestor walk), HistoryStore (@MainActor @Observable;
compose() is the tier gate — free tier gets no object, no detection,
no stat), GitRepository (scope-confined SwiftGitX handles: create =
init + HEAD forced to main + whole-tree "Initial board state" commit;
branch reads incl. unborn/detached; path-history ranks), GitIdentity
(derived default as a pure function + repo-local config reader — not
libgit2's merged ladder), and GitPathHistory (Mutex-guarded lazy
ranker). beginSession composes the git state beside the tier and
feeds BoardStore.makeIdentityHistoryRanker; git-mode loads pass the
git-backed IdentityHistoryRanker to BoardLoader. The popover's git
slot resolves a pure five-way matrix: free tier unchanged (absent /
BoardGitNote), Pro mode-aware — Add Git on mode none, honest prose on
repo-nested, read-only branch line on git. Provider binding
unchanged: both tiers still bind native until the undo/redo card.
42 new tests across 8 suites, all repositories built through bundled
libgit2; InertGitTests untouched and green. 2194 tests / 375 suites.

Replaces the pathfinder-inherited round-robin deal (child i -> column i % C)
with contiguous column segments: base = n/C, the first n%C columns take one
more, and logical order runs down each column before crossing to the next.
Only the geometric mapping changes -- ranks, selection flatten, and VoiceOver
order are untouched, and MasonryPlacement stays the single placement function
both the Layout and the drop model replay.
Why: an insertion under round-robin shifted every later card across columns;
under the column-major deal later cards slide within their column and at most
one card crosses each boundary, so the drag reflow is far calmer. Drop-slot
math gets simpler too -- a column's cards are one contiguous range, a
non-final column's tail is now a genuine mid-list position, and only the last
column's tail means append.
DropSlotMathTests recomputed and extended (46 -> 50): the uneven-fill deal,
boundary positions, the shared tail/head boundary index, and a placement/
drop-model shadow-agreement check. DRAG-REORDER.md and DESIGN/10 amendments
are listed for ratification, deliberately not edited here.

The per-element .accessibilitySortPriority read slots.count from inside the
ForEach closure, re-running the whole slots -> renderedCards chain (an O(n)
card filter plus the session's hidden-member resolution) once per element --
O(n^2) per lane body. A drag pickup runs a synchronous whole-board layout
inside the drag-start nested run loop, which multiplied this into a stack-
sampled ~700ms-1s stall between mouse-down and the visible lift. Hoisting
the evaluation into a local makes pickup effectively immediate.

Board search reaches comment bodies through a search-owned transient
index: the first live-query keystroke sweeps comments/*/index.md
off-actor (.draft and comments/.trash excluded), keystrokes re-filter
in memory, the index discards on clear — the snapshot stays O(cards).
⌘F routes by focus: the comments pane gets an app-owned find bar
spanning the whole rendered thread (next/prev cross rows with
wraparound); body and composer keep NSTextFinder; Find Next/Previous
graduate from FutureCommands. Foreign comment changes speak
path-shaped beside the announcer's ladder ("New comment on 'X'",
plural folds), narrowed by EchoLedger receipts consumed through
CommentPath.classify — and that read fixed a latent footprint bug
where a comment receipt resolved against the card's attachment
listing, read .absent, and classified the user's own write as
foreign. The pane completes its a11y story: flattened comment
elements with Edit/Delete/Reveal custom actions (un-flattening
during inline edit), phrase-table vocabulary, labeled composer and
sort control, and an audit over the open pane on a comment-seeded
fixture (runnable only where automation permission exists).
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
The card window recomposes into three componentized panes (body,
comments, attributes) with two mounts — beside or body-over-comments
at ~3:2 — behind View ▸ Comments Beside Body. View ▸ Show Comments is
one persisted app-wide bit, no content-derived auto-show; File ▸ Add
Comment flips it on and focuses the composer. The thread renders
author lines, edited markers, card-subset Markdown bodies, and
read-only Quick Look chips under a count header with the sort-
direction control. The composer edits comments/.draft/ on the slow
cadence (blur, close, quit, ~30s interval), Escape only moves focus,
⌘↩ posts. Inline edit is a body-edit session in miniature: 700ms
debounce, Save/⌘↩ commits, Cancel and Escape revert to session-start
bytes, close flushes. File drops within either authoring surface
carve out of the window-wide card default into that surface's
attachments/; paperclips cover the no-drag path. Close flush runs
inline flush, then draft save, then the comments/.trash purge;
open sweeps crash residue.

Phase 2 of the one-app pivot (DESIGN 12 ▸ App-side state, re-ruled
2026-07-30; reworks 566deab). AppGroup retires; what remains is
AppStateHome — ordinary sandbox Application Support as the one home for
the registry, clipboard staging and template stores, keeping the
unit-test-host redirect (the test host is the app and would sweep real
state). Scalar defaults return to UserDefaults.standard.
BoardRecord's per-edition grant slots and openNow flags collapse to one
bookmark + one isOpenNow; the legacy-key decode and adopt-in-memory
paths go (nothing shipped with group-era records), while the founding
four-keys-required / defaults-for-everything-since decode policy stays —
a bookmarkless record decodes as the born-orphan row rather than
quarantining the list. needsReopen and the pre-anchored re-grant panel
are removed whole: the only state that flow served — a record granted by
a sibling sandbox — is unrepresentable now, and a dead bookmark of our
own was already the orphan case by explicit comment. The
indexOfRecord path fallback dies with it; path is never a key again.
The cross-process freshness stamp (mtime+size re-read) and
BoardEditionPresence with its popover "Also open in…" line retire; the
clipboard prune keeps its atomic .sweeping/ claim-then-delete, reframed
for crash residue and open -n copies rather than sibling editions. The
application-groups entitlement key is gone.
1880 tests in 317 suites green (13 cross-edition tests retired with
their subject).

Phase 1 of the 2026-07-30 one-app pivot (DESIGN 0bec9a6, card c3a3ddd5):
the KanbanPro target, LaneworkPro scheme, KanbanProTests module-alias
bundle, KanbanPro/ source root and scripts/verify-editions.sh retire
wholesale. project.yml reads as a single-target file again (anchors
inlined, header rewritten in tier vocabulary).
The edition twins merge: EditionTypes -> PasteboardTypes (one
UTType(exportedAs:) home — the one app owns the family types),
EditionAbout -> AboutBox (the quiet Pro signpost survives as the About
box's one line; "…in Settings" deferred until the StoreKit phase gives
it somewhere to point). InertGitTests drops its Base prefix — the
inert-.git posture is unconditional app behavior, unsubscribed and
lapsed being one state.
Entitlements gain com.apple.security.network.client, declared now and
dormant until Pro's remotes use it; no keychain access group. The App
Group key deliberately stays — it goes with AppGroup.swift in phase 2,
since pulling it first would silently drop the app into the fallback
container. README/RELEASE.md build-and-pipeline prose updated to the
one-record world; the subscription story lands with phase 3.
1893 tests in 322 suites green.

Phase 2 completes the lanes-in-trash card. TrashEntry merges the
trash's two kinds by rank in exactly ONE place (ItemPath.resolve's
own merge deleted in favor of it — the three-merge-points finding
shrinks instead of growing). TrashLaneRowView renders the opaque
row — tertiary plate, level-default lane glyph never the lane's own
icon, title + card count, no accents, no expansion; the column badge
counts rendered rows. Selection grammar: kind-homogeneous trash
selections — ranges skip the other kind, ⇧-extension stops at the
kind boundary, plain arrows walk the merged order, marquee stays
card-only (now load-bearing: rows register frames for arrows),
Select All card-scoped; successor-on-purge crosses kinds like
navigation as the interim for open Gap 7b5cbc90. Drag: TrashDrop
accepts lane sessions (drop on shown trash deletes), restoreLanes
routes a trash-sourced strip drop as an arrival-ranked within-board
move with an undo step. Clipboard: ⌘X/⌘V lane restore via opaque
lane subjects; fixed boardRoot(ofLaneFolder:) returning .trash as
the root — a same-board restore looked like an import and would
have reminted the lane it was restoring (pinned by test). A11y:
row = one flattened "title, deleted lane, N cards" element with
Delete/Reveal actions; BoardDiff crossings read lanes as
deleted/restored, shown-trash churn digested at row level. Agent
guide stays v7 — the literal already teaches lanes-trash-by-move
and kind stamping; drift-guard pins those lines. README trash
paragraph notes lanes.
Both schemes 1893 tests / 322 suites green.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Phase 1 of the lanes-in-trash card (2026-07-29 ruling, docs led the
code): lane delete is a move into .trash/ with the subtree intact,
arriving at top trash rank — no destructive delete remains outside
the trash.
TrashedLane opaque unit (id/schema/title/order/heldCards) beside
trash cards — deliberately not a Lane, so no card-shaped surface can
believe an empty subtree. Loader's trash walk trusts the kind VALUE
(lane → opaque unit w/ held-card count counted at the loader's own
unit; card → ordinary card; absent/unrecognized → UUID-children
shape, empty-kindless falls to card per 01's honest limit). Writer:
moveIntoTrash generalized with kind passed never derived (an empty
lane would re-derive as card), deleteLaneToTrash mints against the
whole-container rank ladder. Retired: migrateTombstonedLane (lane
deleted: now ignored — loads live, bytes inert, tolerate-tier
warning), removeLane, captureSubtree/recreateSubtree and the
subtree-snapshot machinery. Undo inverse = move back to captured
strip position, redo replays at captured trash rank. Purge walks
lane subtrees; TrashModel.Freight phrases confirms with lane freight
("…and its 5 cards"). ItemPath gains .trashLane; resolve interleaves
the trash by rank; SearchFilter matches lane rows by title only.
Trashed-lane card windows dismiss and pending cuts void via the
ordinary vanish rule — no new plumbing.
Phase 2 (rendering, selection grammar, drag, a11y, agent guide)
follows. Both schemes 1858 tests / 318 suites green.

Delete Immediately is removed entirely (ruling ae1dd96, Redesign card
d40bfac1): the delete vocabulary is purely staged — board → trash,
trash → permanent (confirmed on no-git boards), Empty Trash for bulk.
Gone: File ▸ Delete Immediately (⌥⌘⌫) and its validation, both
⌥-alternate context rows (card + the permanently-disabled lane row),
the VO custom action, BoardStore.deleteImmediately,
TrashModel.canDeleteImmediately, TrashConfirmations' .purge action
(zero surviving callers — trash-side Delete always used
.deleteTrashCards), and the pinning tests. purgePrompt drops its
now-single-purpose container parameter (.trash is the only surviving
caller). BoardWriter.purgeItem survives — create-undo rollback still
needs it — with its comment rewritten. README's trash paragraph drops
the ⌥⌘⌫ sentence.
The other 2026-07-30 rulings (2ec2c95 registry freshness stamp,
c741b02 unified-log-as-coerce-consumer) required no code changes —
already conformant.
Both schemes 1844 tests / 318 suites green.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Nine rulings land as code. Reorders don't stamp — one container-change
predicate (WriteOperation.rewritesOrderOnly): within-container reorders
and the renumber rescale rewrite only order, while cross-lane, cross-board,
and trash moves stamp modified and clear modified-by; no trash special
case exists, and the m8 undo inverses conform through the same seam.
Copies are transactions: the root-strict/nested-lenient split retires for
a whole-subtree stampability preflight that refuses loudly naming the
offender, and every item-level copy severs remote/remote-state at every
level (whole-board forks carry them verbatim). Paste refuses, never
degrades: the embedded-index.md materialization and its loss row retire;
a missing staged snapshot produces nothing and posts an error-tone
one-shot named from manifest metadata. Coerce-tier fallbacks log through
the Defect stream with path context attached loader-side. Displacement is
level-uniform: a file squatting attachments inside a card heals by the
same rename ladder as board-root squatters; comments stays tolerated.
Delete Immediately joins card and lane context menus as Delete's
⌥-alternate with its own VO custom action, routed through an explicit
container so the menu target outranks standing selection. Agent guide v7
teaches the stamp discipline and the card-level attachments claim, and
sheds two stale v6 lines (lanes trash now; kind is taught). Verified
conformant, unchanged: edition-aware Undo/Redo disable, trash marquee
full-height backdrop.
Both schemes 1854 tests / 318 suites green; verify-editions 30/30.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Latent since the m7 split: base's Info.plist exports the three family
pasteboard types (cards, lanes, clipboard) and Pro's imports them, but
the shared constants declared all three UTType(exportedAs:) — a claim
of ownership the system checks against the running app's plist. In Pro
that claim is false, and the first touch (the clipboard type, via the
launch sweep) raised a runtime fault that blocked board loading under
the debugger.
EditionAbout's twin-file pattern, applied to an initializer: the
constants move to Kanban/App/EditionTypes.swift (exportedAs) with a
KanbanPro/Edition/EditionTypes.swift twin (importedAs, identifiers
verbatim); project.yml excludes base's copy from Pro. Type identity is
the string, so payloads cross editions unchanged. Verified: Pro
fixture launch opens the board with zero UTI warnings; both suites
green; verify-editions 30/30.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Every edition declares group.dev.rzen.indie.Kanban and homes its
app-side state there from day one (12-editions.md ruling 2026-07-29):
- AppGroup namespace: container resolution with per-edition fallback
when unprovisioned, shared UserDefaults suite, edition identity, and
a unit-test-host redirect (the test host IS the app — its launch
sweep and recents refresh must not touch the real shared container).
- BoardRecord: bookmark/isOpenNow replaced by per-edition grants and
openNow keyed by bundle id; hand-written Codable keeps legacy keys
decoding (adopted in memory as the running edition's slots, upgraded
on first save); every other field stays common.
- RecentBoard gains needsReopen: no grant of ours but somebody's —
first click runs an open panel pre-anchored at the recorded path,
prompt "Grant"; recordOpen mints this edition's slot onto the
matched shared record (path fallback only after identity fails and
only against records holding no grant of ours, so re-granting never
forks the record).
- Cross-edition freshness: stat-cheap mtime+size stamp re-reads the
registry when the sibling edition wrote it, so one edition's save
never erases the other's records wholesale.
- restorables() filters on this edition's open-now flags; the board
popover gains BoardEditionPresence ("Also open in Lanework Pro"),
pid-liveness-checked so crash residue never lies.
- Clipboard staging store moves to the group container; the sweep
claims doomed trees by atomic rename into .sweeping/ then deletes,
so the sibling's concurrent sweep is a non-event.
- Template store re-homed to the group container per the 09-templates
re-ruling; scalars (quick-style recents, window size) move to the
shared suite.
- verify-editions.sh: 30 checks (each edition carries exactly the
family group). No pathfinder 1.x migrator: 1.x predates the
registry; state starts fresh in the group container.

The replica framed to a font-derived nominal width, so faces in wide
lanes' interior masonry columns and narrow lanes dragged a preview of
the wrong size and the cursor could sit over empty space beside it.
CardFaceView's existing onGeometryChange now reports size, not height
alone - height still feeds LaneDropRegistry, width feeds the replica -
and BoardMetrics.cardReplicaWidth(measured:bodyPointSize:) keeps the
old figure as the documented not-yet-laid-out fallback. Same row, same
paddings, same lineLimit at the same width means the same height, so
the preview is now an exact overlay of the face it left.
Manual verification pending alongside the lane grab-point card: 3x vs
1x lanes, interior masonry columns, window re-divide, trash rows,
large text sizes, drag-at-creation fallback.
3 tests. 1661 green on both schemes.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
SwiftUI's .onDrag(_:preview:) exposes no anchor or grab-point API and
lays the preview centered over the grabbed view, so a full-height lane
replica grabbed by its ~1.5-line title bar hung half a lane above the
pointer. DragPreviewAnchor is the pure fix: transparent one-sided
padding computed so the padded image's center IS the replica's title
bar - the system's centering then lands the bar under the cursor and
the body over the lane it was lifted from. LaneView measures the real
bar height in the geometry observer it already runs, accounting for the
accent band when the lane's color resolves.
Pixel-exact grab preservation would need re-homing the whole gesture
stack onto an AppKit beginDraggingSession path; declined for a polish
card - this gets the cursor onto the grabbed bar under either of
SwiftUI's possible placement rules. Manual verification pending (no
display here): grab specific bar pixels, colored + uncolored lanes,
large text sizes, multi-lane fan, cross-board drop geometry.
9 tests. 1661 green on both schemes with the paired card-width fix.

User-ruled 2026-07-29: the ledger builds now in base, pre-release
(DESIGN/02 - Components - EchoLedger; DESIGN/10 - Live board
announcements). Receipts drop inside BoardWriter's four disk primitives
(atomic replace, folder move, removal, attachment copy) into a @TaskLocal
ledger that BoardStore.performWrite binds for the bracket's duration -
no call-site bookkeeping, and performWholesale deliberately binds
nothing per 02's bracket exemption. Classification is a pure function of
two snapshots: an item whose folder, index.md bytes, or attachment
listing differs is an observed change; disk matching the receipt is
app-mediated (receipt consumed), no receipt or mismatch is foreign.
Byte-identical foreign overwrites classify app-mediated (unobservable,
accepted); a foreign edit over a fresh app write classifies foreign.
The announcer now consumes per-file facts on every reload origin - the
WatchOrigin gate is gone (ReloadFacts.origin removed outright; nothing
read it after the gate fell). Reconciling sweeps announce their
receipt-less findings as foreign, closing both interim holes
(debounce-window absorption, reconcile silence). The vanishing-focus
rung gates on the ledger too: "deleted externally" would be a lie about
an app-mediated delete, and the subject's own verdict decides.
Divergence flagged: attachment imports hash the landed file right after
FileManager.copyItem rather than during the copy (the bytes do not
stream through the app); an unreadable read-back records nothing, the
direction that biases toward foreign.
30 ledger tests added, announcer suite reworked to the ruling. 1638
green on both schemes.

Three ruled behavior changes (DESIGN/10, resolution session 2026-07-29):
- The board-change digest covers the trash while View > Show Trash is on:
BoardDiff.between gains includingTrash, keying its card index by
ItemPath so foreign purges, restores, and Empty Trash join the digest;
crossings of the trash boundary still read deleted/restored, never
moved, on both sides of the toggle. BoardStore.land passes the store's
own isTrashVisible - no new injection seam.
- A vanished head with surviving co-selection is still named: naming and
recovery are independent axes, so BoardAnnouncer's vanished-focus rung
fires on all branches while the survivors-veto now gates only the
recovery half (recovery implies vanished, no longer both-or-neither).
- Banner-row buttons are literal FKA Tab stops: BannerRow.controls is
the row's testable button inventory, BannerRowView renders from it
with .focusable() on each button; the combined VoiceOver element stays
unconditional - custom actions and Tab stops are independent surfaces.
19 tests added, 2 expectations updated to the rulings. 1607 green on
both schemes.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
DESIGN/10's ≥ 4.5:1 rule gets its owner. ContrastMath is the pure seam:
WCAG relative luminance (piecewise sRGB linearization), symmetric
contrast ratio, source-over compositing (an #RRGGBBAA board colour
resolves over the window background of the active appearance), and
inkChoice — native label if it clears AA, else the other appearance's,
else the higher ratio with meetsAA false (a mid-grey hex can max out
below 4.5 against both 85%-alpha labels; the app paints the best
available rather than overriding the user's colour). BoardTextInk is
the board's application: the decision is a ColorScheme, not a Color —
the text on the board fill is a hierarchy (.primary/.secondary/
.quaternary), and overriding the subtree's scheme moves the whole
vocabulary coherently. Recomputed on appearance change by construction
(read in body); label/backdrop colours resolve inside the asked-for
appearance, Increase Contrast variants included.
Two render sites — the only board text that sits on the user's colour:
the lane header (lanes draw no plate; title, icon, badge, rename field
and the + button land directly on the board fill) and the trash header
(its wash is ~5% effective alpha). Menus, popovers, and drag replicas
deliberately stay native; card faces carry their own opaque plates.
The card's premise fell during implementation: 03's "palette pairs
AA-verified at design time, pinned by a computed-contrast unit test"
was false — no such test existed, and the m4 path drew the native label,
failing AA in one appearance for all twelve wells (obsidian in Light
Mode: 1.0:1). Palette names now route through the same ink selection
(paintedColor delegates to Palette.nsColor — one predicate with
BoardView's paint decision), and PaletteContrastTests pins that the
chosen ink clears AA for every well in both appearances — plus
theNativeLabelIsNeverEnough, which would have failed on the m4 code.
Filed on the Redesign board for ratification. 1579 unit tests green,
both schemes build.

Full relative text scaling per DESIGN/10: BoardMetrics is the board
strip's geometry as a pure function of the body point size
(CardWindowMetrics' twin) — lane plate/header/band, card
corner/stripe/padding, masonry spacing, the drop model's nominal card
height, resize-handle geometry, trash hatch pitch, and both window
floors all derive from an em; CardFaceMetrics folded in. The two fixed
font sizes (welcome brand/glyph) went relative; the toolbar search
field is 17 ems like the transient bar's. The no-horizontal-scroll
invariant is pinned by test at six text sizes by twelve lane counts.
Accommodations is Motion's sibling for the visual settings: Increase
Contrast adds a flat point to strokes (monotone, hierarchy-preserving),
gives borderless card/lane plates a resting separator hairline, and
takes faded accents to full alpha; Reduce Transparency turns the
transient search bar's glass solid and does the same for the alpha
washes that composite over a user-chosen board background (trash plate,
hatched header, drag shadow). Reduce Motion audited — every animated
surface already routes through Motion with a reduced variant; no gaps.
Full Keyboard Access: the template chooser's tiles were pointer-only —
now focusable, arrow-navigable (clamped, StyleWellGrid's rule), Space
picks, Return stays the sheet's default action, focus names the
selection one-way. The board's single tab stop shows its focus ring
under FKA (focusEffectDisabled inverts). Style editor verified already
conformant. Edge accents verified text-free; trash hatch pitch now
font-derived so it still reads as hatching at large text.

The board speaks when files change under the user, per DESIGN/10 § Live
board announcements. BoardDiff is the pure snapshot summarizer (identity
sets for cards/lanes added/edited/moved/deleted — ids, not tallies, so
pro-m1's semantic commit engine can build on it; edited = rendered
content only, moved beats edited, implied events don't steal the
subject). BoardAnnouncer is the decision seam: focusOutcome computes the
vanishing-focus sentence and the walk-up-then-sideways recovery (next
lane by order, else previous, board container only when none remain,
never the trash); speech(for:) is the one-sentence precedence ladder —
raised condition > bracket completion > cleared condition > vanished
focus > digest — foreign-only for the last two rungs, so app-mediated
echoes stay silent.
BoardStore.land assembles ReloadFacts and posts exactly one sentence per
reload through the injectable announce outlet (AccessibilityAnnouncer,
medium priority, never interrupting). Selection recovery layers on top
of ItemReferenceSet re-resolution — survivors veto, the emptied
selection lands on the vanished item's lane and re-arms ⌘N's active-lane
memory. performWholesale(announcing:) arms a completion phrase consumed
by the closing reload — nil on every base bracket today; pro-m1 fills
git phrasings. Locks raised outside the reload path (vanished root,
unwritable location) announce through the same ladder, and the banner
strip is a labeled "Board status" container whose row labels are the
announced sentences (AccessibilityPhrases.bannerLabel — one string for
eye and ear).
Announcements classify at reload granularity (WatchOrigin) as a
deliberate interim: DESIGN/02's EchoLedger (per-file classification, the
announcer's specified input, git-free) was scheduled with the
auto-committer that the edition split moved to pro-m1 — filed on the
Redesign board for a ruling. 1533 unit tests green, both schemes build.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
The board window's accessibility tree per DESIGN/10: lanes are containers
labeled "<title>, lane, N cards" (filter-aware count = renderedCards, the
badge's own collection); cards are one flattened element each — label =
title or the untitled placeholder, value = attachment count + "cut,
pending paste", selection via trait; face icon, stripe, and paperclip are
decorative and hidden. Masonry never leaks into traversal: slots carry
order-keyed accessibilitySortPriority, so a wide lane reads by card order,
not column-major. Lane titles carry the heading trait for the rotor.
VO-Space is the ⌘-click analogue routed through the existing
BoardStore.click funnel (SelectionGrammar stays the single answer for
toggle and container-boundary rules) — cards and lane headers both.
Context-menu rows double as custom accessibility actions, each calling
the same private method as its menu row so the surfaces cannot drift;
trash cards expose Delete and Reveal in Finder and never Open. The trash
column is pinned last via sort priority 0, its label/value re-routed
through the new AccessibilityPhrases seam; toggling trash visibility
posts a one-line announcement from the store seam (both command faces).
The invisible lane-resize drag strip leaves the tree — the stepper and
menu items are the accessible width path.
AccessibilityPhrases is the pure vocabulary seam (labels, values, plural
folding shared with TrashModel.phrase), pinned by its own test suite.
Both schemes build; 1466 unit tests green.

The chooser completes its three tiers: bundled by template order, then
keyed user templates, then keyless boards by display name — and a
malformed user template still lists, by folder name with the loader's
own sentence on the row, never failing its neighbours. The store is
re-scanned on every presentation and on app activation, the Reveal
round trip made honest without watching a folder 09 deliberately
leaves unwatched; Reveal lives in the chooser's header and mints the
store on first press. Save as Template repeats Duplicate's sequence —
progress row with Cancel, flush, detached cancellable copy — through
the engine: mint the store, read the next user order before the copy
can count itself, Finder-ladder the name, copy excluding .git and
.trash/, then stamp the whole template: mapping on the landed copy
through updateIndex, with no bracket because the copy lives outside
every watched board. Folder attributes deliberately don't carry — the
one lock the command stays live under is the read-only-DMG one, and
carrying its mode bits would mint a read-only template in the user's
own store; the command gates instead on the real hazard, unsaved card
content. A signpost names the template only when the ladder renamed
it. One name ladder now serves Duplicate and the store.

Phase 3 finishes the pivot at the surface. One card face serves two
containers: CardFaceView extracted with a role — board or trash — so
stripe, tint, chip, selection stroke, cut dim, marquee registration,
and drag are shared by construction, the trash side differing only in
its absences: no Open, no rename, no Style, no file-hover highlight,
and a Delete that goes through the confirmation host. The column
rewrote around the lanes' own single-column masonry so drag reflow
reads as positional slides; chrome stays the hatched header, symbol,
and count — 11 gives Empty Trash to the File menu alone. Two real
grammar bugs die here: plain Backspace on a trash selection purged
without the confirmation the menu raises, and the context menu's
Delete resolved against the standing selection, so right-clicking a
trash card under a board selection silently did nothing — it now
stages the clicked set explicitly. Open, Rename, Style, and Empty
Trash validation became testable store seams; the column is one named
accessibility container of ordinary card elements. The tombstone era
is swept: deleteItem, restoreItem, stripTombstonedChildren — dead
since lane copies stopped nesting trash — the restore verb, the
unreachable put-back banner row, and every quasi-lane doc comment.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Phase 2 swaps every consumer: Liveness and its ancestor walk are gone,
replaced by ItemContainer — a UUID set plus the container side it
lives on, presence the whole test, one selection boundary instead of
the old liveness law. Deletion stages by place: board cards move to
the trash at a store-minted head rank, trash-side delete is permanent
behind its confirmation, Delete Immediately skips the trash from
anywhere, lane delete captures the subtree and removes the folder.
Restore has no method at all — moveCards resolves members in either
container, so drag-out and cut-paste are the ordinary moves 13 calls
them, registering ordinary Move steps. The delete inverse moves the
card back to its captured lane and rank; redo replays the captured
trash rank, a value the gesture actually wrote; lane undo recreates
the subtree byte-faithfully in session. Purges register nothing —
where 13's trash section contradicts its own Rules on that, Rules
wins, filed for ruling. Staleness collapsed to present-or-absent: a
container is a path, so a foreign restore fails the delete step's
expectation structurally. Legacy tombstones migrate on the loose-file
tail hook, cards oldest-first so minting above top reproduces the
retired newest-first column, lanes returning live, one folded loss
row naming both directions. Put Back, restoreByDrag,
receiveRestoredCards, TrashEntry, and the kind machinery are deleted;
the trash column renders the container correctly with its full face
rework left to phase 3.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
The command surface was already almost entirely platform machinery —
this card proves it and pins it. Headless probes established that
NSWindow.validateMenuItem answers enablement AND rewrites the row title
from the delegate-supplied manager, so 'Undo Move 3 Cards' flows step
phrase to Edit menu with no code of ours; under the lock the rows dim
and keep their names, the correct reading of the-stack-survives. The
toolbar twins validate through validateUserInterfaceItem, which never
touches labels — 03's static-label exception proven rather than
asserted — and their specs' enablement abstention is pinned so nobody
later adds a second, disagreeing answer. The one link a headless run
cannot close is the nil-target key-window resolution itself: standard
responder-chain behavior with none of our code in it, left as the
manual check. Base-edition 'disabled without undo' scaffolding is
reworded away — every base board has undo now. New suites cover the
trash's two doors (delete-then-undo byte-identical to Put Back's
effect), position-preserving restore of a middle card, and the
capstone: five gestures forward, five presses back to the origin
board, five forward again, the menu phrase asserted after every press.

The store is the Writer boundary, so it computes and registers
inverses: a weak history sink bound at session composition, one
HistoryStep per gesture at exactly the brackets that were already one
performWrite each — multi-card moves, style batches, width pairs, and
multi-row restores each undo as one plurally-titled step, and the Edit
session registers once at the flip from the bytes disk held before its
first landed write, debounce ticks registering nothing. Crossings run
through performWrite, so an undo brackets the watcher, echoes through
the reload, and reaches every window; every closure captures values,
never snapshots. The inventory follows 13 exactly: moves return to
origin lane and order, renames restore or remove the title key,
restyles and resizes restore field values or absence, tombstones and
restores swap with captured timestamps, and an undone create is a real
removal — no trace — with redo re-materializing the same UUID from
bytes captured at gesture time. Purge, attachments, repair,
bookkeeping, checkbox flips, raw Apply, and the whole arrival family
register nothing, each exclusion documented where it lives. Step names
speak 06's verb vocabulary through the new HistoryPhrase.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
12's settled ruling supersedes the m4 placeholder: on an ordinary board
the git section is simply absent — the popover is complete in itself —
and on a board carrying an inert .git it shows only the calm one-line
note, 'This board has a git history. Lanework Pro works with it.' The
detection is a pure one-line seam checking the board root at popover
open, deliberately non-live: .git is filtered from the watch by design,
so there is no reload to hang a live fact off, and a quiet signpost
self-corrects on next open.

NSToolbar through the existing HostedWindowController rather than
SwiftUI's toolbar — for reasons that are contract, not taste: 03's
transient-search clause is a decision over the toolbar's current
contents, which NSToolbar publishes and SwiftUI's API cannot answer;
Undo/Redo are the system's nil-target responder-chain actions so the
toolbar items validate exactly as the menu rows do (disabled on base
boards, alive in m8 unchanged); and the search item hosts the real
NSSearchField with explicit first-responder control. Customization is
all system furniture — Customize sheet, drag rearrange, display-mode
popup, overflow, autosaved per window kind. Board default: the search
field alone, trailing; catalog adds New Card, New Lane, Undo, Redo,
Show Trash, every action extracted from its menu command so no second
predicate exists. Card default: the Edit Body / Raw Source toggles and
Add Attachment, mirroring their commands' own predicates live via
observation tracking. Removing the search item keeps the promise —
⌘F surfaces the same field as a transient strip under the title bar,
persisting until the query clears, and an overflowed item that cannot
take the keyboard falls through to the strip too.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
The sidebar completes: the shared style editor gains a second anchor —
StyleEditorLayout carries the geometry (the popover keeps its settled
268/14/7/8 untouched as the default; the sidebar packs columns to its
width with no inner scroller) while every well, the batch display, the
arrow grammar, and the one applyStyle bracket stay the shared
component's. The card anchor is fixed, not tracking: the target is
this card, and the fate walk retires the window when the card goes.
Details renders every unknown frontmatter key read-only in file order —
Card.document already carried them — showing the author's own bytes
where the raw span is a value and the engine's rendering for block
scalars and empties; reserved enhanced-schema keys are ordinary
unknowns, and no keys means no section. Actions: Delete rides the same
tombstone bytes as Backspace and drop-on-trash through a one-line
seam, says nothing about selection, and lets the fate walk dismiss;
Reveal in Finder resolves through the attachment scope so the two
paths cannot disagree. History reserves its m7 slot without drawing a
header no base board can honor.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
The card's complete file inventory: compact QuickLook-thumbnail rows
over Card.attachments — no reference tracking, subfolders tolerated
and unsurfaced — with a quiet header add affordance and the drop hint
empty state. The whole window is the file-drop surface, Edit mode
included (the editor's drag types were already filtered; now tested),
sharing the board's folder-refusal semantics literally: FinderDrop
moved verbatim into its own file so both windows run the same
partition and loss row. Dragged text still lands at the caret and is
inert elsewhere — the window delegate accepts file payloads only.
Rows open on double-click or Return, drag out their file URL, and
Remove is a bracketed write through FileManager.trashItem — the system
Trash, never a hard delete, returning the in-Trash URL so the promise
is testable; the attachment listing is the guard, so traversal and
subfolder names refuse in one line. Keyboard-native per 05: the
section is one Tab stop, arrows walk rows by name, Space toggles the
shared QuickLook panel, Backspace removes. File > Add Attachment
(shift-cmd-A) comes alive through the same import path.

The escape hatch: View > Raw Source (opt-cmd-E) unmounts the whole
content area for the literal on-disk index.md in a plain monospaced
editor with Cancel/Apply. Raw source is window-level state, not a third
body mode — entry rides setMode(.preview), which flushes the Edit
session by construction, then reads the file fresh; exit reveals
Preview, and an empty body after Apply does not reopen Edit (openIfNeeded
already ran). Apply validates the proposed bytes through the loader's
own card checks — parseDocument's strict UTF-8/BOM rejection, schema,
order — deliberately skipping the uneditable-shape refusal, since a
flow-mapping card is exactly what the hatch repairs; invalid bytes
alert in place with the loader's own error and no bracket opens. The
write is byte-for-byte with no modified stamp and no modified-by clear,
per 01's explicit carve-out — the verbatim contract outranks stamping —
and identical bytes write nothing. Escape cancels, cmd-Return applies,
toggle-off applies too, and cmd-E disables while raw is active via a
testable predicate. Tombstoned targets refuse as vanished: a foreign
delete is never reverted by a stale buffer.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
The editing surface: the same hosted TextKit-1 text view gains an
editable branch with a per-keystroke line-scanner highlighter — chosen
over a parser re-parse because a mid-typing buffer is usually invalid
Markdown and 05 wants the delimiters themselves dimmed; apply only sets
attributes, so presentation-never-transforms is structural. Saves ride
a ~700ms injectable debounce through BoardWriter.writeBody —
toggleTaskMarker's idiom widened to the body span, frontmatter bytes
untouched, refusing to write when disk already holds that body, which
enforces all three gates (untouched, reverted, echo) at the layer that
owns the bytes with one isDirty predicate above it. Mode grammar lands
whole: ⌘E toggles with a checkmark, Return in Preview enters, Escape
returns, and every flip flushes first; window close flushes through
the existing retry/save-copy/discard modal, and the dismissal flush
deliberately reaches a tombstoned card. Dirty-buffer-wins: disk always
follows the snapshot, the buffer only when clean, both surfaces render
the buffer. Undo is the editor's own session-scoped NSUndoManager;
endEditSession names the pro-m1 one-commit-per-session boundary.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
The card body's resting state: swift-markdown (pinned 0.8.0, smart
typography off — Preview renders the bytes on disk) parsed into a pure
BodyMarkup model with UTF-8 source offsets, rendered on one hosted
TextKit 1 NSTextView — chosen because find-in-text is NSTextFinder,
checkbox clicks reuse AppKit character hit-testing, links are .link
attributes, and NSTextTable's automatic layout is exactly the
columns-sized-to-contents rule. The GFM subset renders per 05; HTML
stays verbatim code-styled text; relative images resolve against the
card folder while remote URLs are never fetched, drawing a quiet chip
instead. Task checkboxes are live: a click flips exactly one byte
through a fresh-read, refuse-uneditable, stamp, atomic-replace write —
the app's only offset-addressed write, so a moved target refuses as
staleTarget and what the user saw decides the direction, netting one
toggle on a double-click. Empty bodies open in Edit per CardBodyMode's
opening rule, applied once; the Edit surface itself stays an honest
read-only stub until its card. FindCommand prefers the card body's
find over board search when a card window is focused.

The settle rule 3f4125e introduced — at release the shadow swaps for the
dropped card(s) drawn in place immediately — is withdrawn on review. The
board returns to the presentation the committed-overlay hold has always
had: the shadows keep standing at their landing slot and the originals
keep their lift until the echo reload lands, whatever the operation was,
and the real faces arrive with the snapshot that carries the write.
Gone with it: the DropLanding/DroppedItem seam and the three landing
accessors, the hold's landing/operation payload and the removesOriginals
and keepsIdentity halves it decided, the pickup-captured titles a
cross-board arrival's face needed, LaneSlot.dropped with DroppedFace and
DroppedCardFace, the strip's dropped-lane run, and the trash column's
settled tombstone rows — the same presentation at the delete gesture's
end, which goes for the same reason while the drop-to-delete write and
its shadow row stay exactly as they were.
Kept: the hold itself, which predates the commit, along with the 1500 ms
failed-write timeout, its injectable duration and its extracted expire,
and the guard that keeps a settled release past retargeting. The tests
pinning those stay; the ones asserting what the landing slot drew are
gone, and the suite now pins the hold's own claim — the arrangement does
not move at the release.
The pause between the release and the echo is therefore an open design
question again, filed on the Redesign board.

The m4 scene plumbing was already honest — one WindowGroup value per
CardWindowRef enforces one-window-per-card, and CardWindowFate's
ancestor walk answered dismissal — so this card fills the window: a
two-column shell whose body column takes all resize flex and whose
sidebar width derives once from font metrics (26 characters of average
body advance plus em gutters), the five 05-ordered section headers as
placeholders, and the card body as selectable plain text until Preview
mode lands. The fate walk now returns a CardPlacement (card + lane), so
one pass answers both liveness and the live board › lane subtitle; a
board rename lands for free through displayName. Card windows remember
their frames per card in the board record (case-folded id keys,
unchanged-writes-nothing), restoring instead of cascading; only
unremembered cards take the last-used size and cascade. Store
acquisition stays gated on liveStore — a card window never opens a
board — and the close-flush hook stands with nothing to flush until the
Edit-session card.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
Creation now clears the search by mechanism, not gesture: one seam
(noteUserCreation) states 04's rule once, called from the placeholder
funnel, paste — cards and lanes, after the staleness guard so a stale
paste clears nothing — and Finder file-drop creation; the attach path
deliberately doesn't clear, and cross-board arrivals and New Lane stay
outside the seam (a transfer isn't creation; a lane can't be born
invisible). An open inline rename now survives the filter hiding its
card: the model already kept the editor, but the field renders in the
card's slot, so renderedCards keeps the renaming card's slot exactly as
long as the editor is open — the query stands throughout, and commit or
Escape lets the predicate apply in the same pass. Verified conformant
and newly pinned: query-emptied lanes keep their slot with a 0 badge,
pasteboard staleness (takeover before paste and mid-staging both no-op),
out-transition reachability and the strip pre-divide hold by
construction with comments citing their rulings.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
04's settled clauses were mostly shipped already — the create landing
resolved through DropSlotMath.cardSlot with one nominal shadow per
importable file — but a release on the lane header fell through to the
card zones, which clamp inward, so a scrolled lane could propose behind
the header stripe. FileDropZones now folds header, attach hit-test, and
card-slot resolution into one pure seam asked in that order, the header
answering topmost per the ruling; lane headers register their frames
for it. FinderDrop.shadowCount names the floor-at-one rule. New tests
pin the header boundary, a differential against cardSlot's own zones
(same zones, not similar), and a store-level differential proving a
file landing takes the very ranks a card move there takes.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
04's ruling makes the drag the pointer's delete gesture: the shown
trash column accepts live same-board card drags, the shadow pinned
topmost — honest, since the trash sorts by deleted newest-first — and
release tombstones through the same write path as Backspace, extracted
so the two gestures cannot drift. DropTarget grew a container case for
the quasi-lane (it has no lane id by construction); lane drags,
cross-board arrivals, option-copies (re-checked at release, the one
input that can flip without a callback), trashed-side payloads, hidden
trash, and the read-only lock all refuse — and a refusal falls through
to the strip retarget, never cancelling the drag. The settle draws the
tombstoned rows in the trash under the cards' own GUIDs, so the echo is
an invisible content swap and nothing winks out for a round trip.
Selection needs no surgery: the reload's resolve rule ejects tombstoned
members as the vanish it is, pinned by a test contrasting both gestures.

03's resettlement reverses the pathfinder carry-over: the
selection-keyed dual presentation proved undesirable, so a card has one
presentation — selection changes styling, never geometry, and the
masonry never reflows on click. Deleted the carousel view (page dots,
glass underlay, scroll-tick monitor), the QuickLook thumbnail cache
(sole consumer), the pure paging/suppression rules, and the
sole-selected animation key — Motion now keys transactions on the
search query and the drop proposal only. The attachment chip stays as
the face's whole attachment story; viewing media is the card window's
job. No carousel state had leaked beyond the view layer.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
03's sharpened settle rule: rendering the arrangement means rendering
the card — at release the shadow swaps for the dropped card(s) drawn in
place immediately, the appear never waiting for the echo reload. The
committed hold now carries the landing (ids, payload titles, operation)
and surfaces read one DropLanding seam: within-board moves draw the
real faces at their proposed slots under the arriving card's own key,
so the echo is an invisible content swap; cross-board card arrivals
draw payload-titled faces keyed positionally, so the echo reads as an
ordinary arrival. Cross-board lane arrivals deliberately keep their
shadow until the echo — a lane's face is a whole column with no honest
payload equivalent. The 1500 ms failed-write timeout is now seamed
(injectable duration, extracted expire) and pinned by tests.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
04's settled ruling: the attachment model is flat top-level files, so a
drag containing only folders never engages — no highlight, no proposal,
the standard incompatible-payload cursor — and a mixed drag proposes for
its files only, importing them at the drop while a loss row names the
skipped folders. Hover reads the providers' registered types (anything
conforming to public.directory refuses, packages included); commit
re-partitions authoritatively from the filesystem, so a synthetic
payload that hides its type still can't land a folder. The create path
now only ever fires with at least one importable file — the
mint-fail-remove dance is gone from the folder case and stays reserved
for genuine mid-batch failures.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
02 ratified a warning-tone class for non-failure losses — content that
didn't arrive though nothing failed: a degraded paste, folders skipped
from a Finder drop, their future kin. Loss rows take the one-shot's
dismissable-untimed lifecycle (a loss the user didn't notice is the
harm) and rank below the true failures, above commit and attachment
notices. BannerCenter grows LossBanner, postLoss, and the
skipped-folders phrasing; the degraded-paste notice moves off its
signpost onto the new class, ending its too-quiet ranking.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SR4XGjmBE16ZUYWpfFHXwY
The committed placeholder's lane slot now takes the arriving card's
identity — .awaitingArrival keys as card:<id>, so when the echo reload
lands the ForEach sees one persisting element whose content swaps from
stub to card face instead of a removal and an insertion with two
scale+fade transitions (DESIGN/02 > overlays: the handoff must read as
one arrival). The awaiting face renders the card's exact chrome from
shared CardFaceMetrics, so any residual branch crossfade is between
pixel-identical renderings; the editing phase keeps its constant key so
typing identity holds. Slot position math is untouched.
CreateHandoffIdentityTests pins the key derivation.

The trashed-side gesture surface was sized to the rows' fitted height, so
blank column space below the last row couldn't arm a marquee — a dead
zone the board side doesn't have (DESIGN/04 > The trash: the column's
gesture surface is full height). The rows content now takes
maxHeight: .infinity like LaneView's scrollableCards, the identical
structure in the identical position, so the band arms from anywhere in
the column.

The strip's standard-width division read the drop registry's strip
frame during body evaluation, but the registry is deliberately
unobserved (it exists for event-time reads): the first body ran
against a zero frame, every lane collapsed to the 1pt floor, and
nothing invalidated the view when the real measurement landed — the
board stayed corrupted until an unrelated re-render. The layout now
reads the GeometryReader's live proposal (reactive by construction);
the drop delegates keep reading the registry at event time.

The card face's in-place expansion (03-board-ui.md § Card face): a card
with attachments, as the sole selection, grows a paged media band below
its title; every other state stays compact behind the quiet paperclip.
- CardCarousel owns the pure rules: the sole-selection predicate decides
by identity (a sole-selected lane matches no face, no snapshot walk),
and expansion is suppressed outside the animation key while a rubber
band is active — a band names a set in progress, so carousels neither
flicker nor animate under it.
- QuickLook thumbnails generate off-main into a per-window cache keyed to
survive reselection, with the Finder-icon fallback while loading and
for non-previewable types; pages ride the platform paging behavior,
dots (glass underlay, solid under Reduce Transparency) click to page,
and a local wheel monitor turns a discrete tick into one clamped page —
precise trackpad pans fall through untouched.
- The expansion animates under Motion's new carouselExpansion transaction
keyed narrowly on the sole-selected card; Reduce Motion goes instant.
Drop-slot math and the marquee read the expanded height for free — both
re-register on every size change.

the board root with nothing selected; a selection resolving to no

The board's live title+body filter per 04-interactions.md § Search:
- SearchFilter — a pure value folding the query once (case- and
diacritic-insensitive substring, locale-stable); title OR body matches,
attachment filenames never searched; only the literal empty string is
inactive.
- One universe: the filter threads through SelectionGrammar's order lists
as a defaulted parameter, so ranges, Select All, arrow navigation, the
marquee, drop zones, count badges, and the shown trash all read the same
filtered set by construction; lanes are deliberately never filtered out
(an emptied lane keeps its slot with a 0 badge). Hidden cards leave the
selection through the existing constrain primitive, run on every query
change and as the last line of the reload resolve; the delete successor
is filtered so ⌫ never selects a hidden neighbour.
- The field: an NSSearchField-backed toolbar item (the toolbar's sole
default item); Edit ▸ Find ⌘F focuses it through a focused-value
presentation; stock field-editor dispatch — Return swallowed, Tab is the
keep-filter path to the board, board commands stay enabled except the
caret-chord pair, now one shared caretChordsYield expression.
- Escape is staged: clear the non-empty query (focus stays), hand an empty
field back to the board, clear an active search from board focus —
before Escape's clear-selection meaning.

deliberately gets no carve-out; filter reflow rides the content spring

⌘X/⌘C/⌘V for cards and lanes per 04-interactions.md § Clipboard:
- ClipboardStore stages full folder snapshots eagerly at the gesture into
Application Support (at most the current copy; sweep at launch and on
each copy purges what the pasteboard no longer references; a copy made
before quitting pastes whole after restart) and writes the pasteboard a
JSON manifest — every entry embedding its index.md, lane entries their
cards' too — plus plain-text titles.
- Cut is Finder-style deferred: items dim in place off pendingCut, void on
pasteboard takeover (changeCount, no timers), source-board close, or
per-item external tombstoning; the first armed paste moves the surviving
originals whole (tombstoned interior cards land in the destination's
trash), a second paste materializes copies from staging.
- Paste anchors by the shared flatten-order rule (NewCardTarget's anchor,
extracted); a tombstoned selection never anchors; lane paste reaches the
right end and stays enabled on a zero-lane board; paste into the source
board is the within-board lane duplicate; copies keep created, take
fresh GUIDs, and strip tombstoned cards; trash-sourced copies strip
deleted: at materialization; ⌘X is disabled on the trash side.
