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.
1549 unit tests green, both schemes build.

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.

A template is a board folder the ordinary loader reads — no second
schema, no Swift catalog. BoardTemplate became exactly that: a loaded
BoardModel with chooser-facing derivations, the lane-title stub gone.
TemplateEngine instantiates by the copy-remint-restamp walk: .git and
.trash excluded at top level only — both names mean something at a
board root and nowhere else, and .gitignore must survive — every
materialized folder reminted, created/modified stamped fresh (born
today, not forked), modified-by cleared, the template: key carried
inert, the blurb and style inherited, and loose card files normalized
at this import boundary per the paste precedent so a new board never
opens with a notice about a mess its own birth made. Legacy deleted:
keys copy through verbatim to the one migrator — stripping would
resurrect, skipping would destroy. Atomicity is construct-then-clean:
a sibling temp can be sandbox-refused and a cross-volume rename is
just a second copy, so the call removes what it created on every
non-board exit and never touches an occupied destination. The
cancellable per-item walk extracted into BoardTreeCopy serves
Duplicate and instantiation with two parameters — top-level exclusions
and folder-attribute carriage, the only axes they differ on.

The welcome window becomes the real thing: Xcode-style, hidden title
bar with background drag, branding and actions left, recents right —
rows carrying the board symbol, name, location, and the registry's
cached lane/card counts (stamped at close, never a scan at welcome
time), sorted by last opened. Launch failures surface row-level per
02: a failure joins its recents row as a warning caption, an
unresolvable bookmark renders unavailable with Forget its one
affordance, and only a failure with no row to carry it falls back to
a compact list; a board opening again heals its row. New Board
(Opt-Cmd-N) opens the Pages-style template chooser — shipped with
the single Basic template and the m9 seams marked — flowing through
the save panel into createBoard/createLane and straight into a board
window. Open Recent gains its submenu with Clear Menu (byte-identical
to forgetting every row, pinned by test), and File > Duplicate forks
the frontmost board to a Finder-style copy sibling: pending work
flushes first through the close flush's step two alone (sessions stay
open — 09's stated exception), every GUID and tombstone carries (the
whole-board carve-out from copies-remint), and the copy opens in its
own window while the original stays put. 36 new tests.
