Step 7 of strategy/01-git-excision.md, the companions. The agent guide bumps to v11: the Git section teaches repo-resident etiquette alone (stage only your own paths, commit your own changes, leave app-maintained files to the app) — existing boards heal to the new text on next open. README re-anchors: the four git feature bullets out, tiers say the complete Mac experience is free, and one bullet states the format's git-friendliness promise. The changelog drops the never-shipped git entries. DESIGN re-rules: 06 retired with Undo routing migrated to 13 (now the sole substrate's doc, seam kept open), 07 retired as written pending the ops-service workstream, 14 retired as superseded record, 12 carries the second pivot note, the index reflects all of it; the charter gets a pointer note (the anchors' full re-ruling stays with the user). InertGitTests renames to GitAgnosticStorageTests — the excision restores its original claim app-wide. And the sweep: ~70 comment sites across 36 files adjudicated against the keeper list, every present-tense description of the excised machinery made past tense or repointed, keepers untouched. 2,707 tests green.

The titlebar widget becomes a two-line identity block: the board glyph at
22pt spanning both lines, the title over the branch (git-mode only, smaller
and secondary), the em-dash retired. New Branch… returns to the switch menu
behind a divider, revealing an inline name field — the pre-split shape. The
board settings sheet retires whole: add-git and commit identity render
inline in the Git tab's postures (BoardGitSetup.swift), the availability
rule collapses into BoardGitSetupSection.resolve, and Board ▸ Board
Settings… leaves the menu bar. Where 07's remote/credential setup surfaces
land is deliberately left open — filed on the Redesign board.

The popover/sheet split lands: a board-scoped, titled, sectioned sheet on
the board window hosts everything setup-shaped, opened from the popover's
Board Settings… row and the new Board ▸ Board Settings… menu row. The three
existing setup controls relocate — add-git (whose noteFormVisible lines now
make the sheet the form-anchored failure surface), branch creation (a
standing field; create-and-switch runs the identical settle sequence), and
the commit-identity fields (the 2s visibility-scoped poll rides with them).
The popover keeps the daily face and its postures; its Pro/mode-none
section becomes header + door (.addGit renamed .noRepository). Availability
is derived from the section inventory (Pro + mode none or git), so pro-m2's
sections can't drift from the doors; the sheet's fields join the
caret-chord disable set. The audit suite pins what the free fixture can
reach; the sheet's own audit is manual until a tier override is ruled.

The 2026-07-28 realign card asks the four caret chords (Move Left/Right,
lane-width pair) to yield to any focused text control. The seam already
conforms — caretChordsYield covers the board popover, the search field's
first-responder tracking, and card windows publish no scope — but had
zero regression coverage. CaretChordTests pins the rule: scopeless
windows never yield, either surface suffices, and inline editors remain
acceptsBoardMutations' concern, not this seam's.
